In last article, I showed how to get unlimited coins in Jetpack Joyride, and here I pay more attention to detailed introduction about the gadgets in Jetpack Joyride. Literally, these gadgets will protect you from being damaged or killed, so hope it helps on your decision to select which gadget for as your equipment. And of course, each time you need equip up to two gadgets from the below 18 gadgets.
Here's all the Jetpack Joyride gadgets introduction and how to use this gadgets, and this also can be the Jetpack Joyride tips.
Of course, Gadgets can be found when you enter the Stash, click Gadgets option to reveal all the 6 sectors. All the gadgets can be used for lifetime once purchased.
Sector one: Research and Development
There're air barrys, nerd repellant as well as insta-ball in sector one.
Leap gracefully over obstacles with these designer sneakers.
This gadget allows Barry to jump while on the ground, quickly launching him approximately half-way to the ceiling.The ability to 'jump' refreshes every time Barry's feet hit the ground.
Nerd Repellant:
This patent-pending formula is so potent that the whole laboratory had to be abondoned.This gadget makes the whole laboratory closed, and give it an abandoned appearance. There are no scientists, tumbleweeds roll on the ground, and the red flashing lights are off.It also makes some door lights flicker
This gadget can be helpful if the player is easily distracted by the scienists, causing him to die more often. It is also useful if the play wants to avoid scattering or touching any scientists if, for example, one of the challenges is to avoid harming any scientists for X meters, but the player wants to use the machine gun jetpack or vehicles (maybe to do a vehicle challenge simultaneosly). It is especially helpful when trying to get the "Germaphobe" achievement, where you must travel 2 km without touching any coins, scientists or tokens, which can be very difficult to get without Nerd Repellant. Otherwise, it's effects are mainly aesthetic, and provides a change from the normal scenery.
Bounce off the floor instead of going splat. Great for travelling a few extra meters.This gadget activates immediately after Barry's death. A pink sphere encases Barry and bounces three times before breaking. Barry's velocity when he hits the ground determines the Insta-Ball's effectiveness. Barry will bounce higher, and subsequently farther, if he dies near the top of the screen, or while falling from the top of the screen than he will bounce more than if he dies while running on the ground.
Barry will bounce no lower than the midpoint of the screen and no higher than the top (so he won't bounce off the ceiling). The height, and subsequently the distance, Barry bounces decreases with each bounce if possible. However, if the Gravity Belt gadget is also being used, his bounce height and distance increases if possible instead of decreases after each bounce.
If the Insta-Ball is used with the Freeze-O-Matic, the Insta-Ball will activate first. Once the Insta-Ball breaks, the Freeze-O-Matic will activate, increasing the distance traveled after death.Sector 2: Fringe Science Lab
There're Gravity Belt, Missle Jammer, and Token Gift in this sector.Gravity Belt
Makes the ground come at you a lot faster than usual. Be sure to bend your knees when you land.This gadget makes gravity stronger, so Barry falls much more quickly. Especially useful for avoiding diagonal Zappers.
Missle Jammer
Replaces the missile guidance program with pictures of kittens downloaded from the Internet. Only works if the kittens are particularly cute. "The Missile Jammer is a Gadget that was introduced in Update 1.3 on April 26, 2012. This gadget makes randomMissiles detonate by itself, rendering some missiles harmless. The icon is a picture of a partly destroyed red missile.
Token Gift
What do you give someone who has everything? A free finalSpin Token, of course!"
Token Gift is a Gadget that was introduced on update Version 1.3 on April 26, 2012. This gadget spawns a Spin Token at the beginning of each run which is quite difficult to avoid as it is automatically equipped with a "magnet" with similar to the effects of Magnetic Tokens. The achievement, Rejected can be obtained when the player dodges a Token Gift. Its icon is a picture of a Spin Token with a red ribbon wrapped around it.Sector 3: Pseudoscience Action Group
In this sector, there're Freeze-O-Matic, X-Ray Specs, as well as Gemology.There is no better way to cool down after a hard run than being snap-frozen in a solid brick of ice. It also helps you slide a few extra meters
This gadget will freeze Barry immediately after his death, causing him to slide a few extra meters (about 80 metres). The ice will break after a few seconds. This gadget also allows Scientists to freeze.
If use with the Insta-Ball, the Insta-Ball will activate first and if bounced three times, Freeze-O-Matic will be activated and Barry slides.X-Ray Specs
This high-tech eyeware is both fashionable and functional. Now you can look inside vehicle pickups and other places you're not supposed to see.
This gadget allows Barry to see what's inside a Vehicle pickup, and also examines Scientists, Missiles, Spin Tokens, and Flash.Gemology
A single blingification technique that converts coins into high-value gems. For some reason it only works on coins minted in 1985 "Gemology is a Gadget introduced through the Update 1.3 released on April 26, 2012. This gadget turns random coins into high-valued gems equivalent to 5 coins, or 10 coins with the Counterfeit Machine or the Next Run Double prize. Its icon is a picture of a octagonal-shaped ruby, a type of gemstone. It costs 6,500.
Sector 4: Futurologist Lounge
There're EZY-Dodge Missles, Magnetic Tokens, as well as Flying Pig.EZY-Dodge Missles
If you're going to play a game of chicken with a missile, make sure it's an Ezy-Dodge!The Ezy-Dodge Missiles is a Gadget that was introduced in Update 1.3 on April 26, 2012. This gadget makes Missilesmove slower, therefore making it easier to dodge and avoid missiles. In addition, it changes the missile warning sound into a slower version of the original sound. Its icon is a picture of a blue Missile.
Magnetic Tokens
Every token is fitted with a super-strong magnet. They are easier to collect, but will probably wipe your credit card .
This gadget will make Spin Token a magnetic token. Magnetic token is easier to catch. The way it acts is similar to a token gift. If you go up, it goes up. If you go down, it goes down. This gadget is great for completing goals such as "Collect 4 spin tokens in one game"Flying Pig
This highly-unstable coin transporter was designed by a scientist with a particular fondness in for physical comedy.
This gadget makes some Flying Piggys appear randomly. There can be Gems if the Gemology gadget and Double Coins if the player achieved the Double Coins on the slot.Sector 5: Testing Zone
Free Ride, Coin Magnet and Lucky Last in Testing zone.Free Ride
Stop off at the motor pool before smashing through the laboratory wall. Why didn't Barry think of this earlierThe Free Ride is one of the gadgets in Jetpack Joyride. When used, the player gets a free vehicle at the start of a run.

This clever gizmo emits a special frequency that causes nearby Zappers to pop. It's just a prototype so don't expect it to work all the time."The Dezapinator is a Gadget that is first introduced in Update 1.3.5 released on May 24, 2012. This gadget randomly disables nearby Zappers. This gadget is considered to be very beneficial, due to the fact that numerous Zappers appear when players are very far and when riding Vehicles. Its icon is an image of a partly destroyed Zapper.
Turbo Boost
Ever wish that you had a machine flying in front of you spawning boost rings ? No? Well the team at Legitimate Research have made one anyway

WATCH: Shocking Clip From Odd Future Frontman
SPIN music editor Charles Aaron recently described Odd Future, the boundary-pushing, teenage L.A. rap collective, as "the new 'fuck you' in music," a must-watch act who might either be the next Wu-Tang Clan, or a Jackass for hip-hop. Now, the ensemble's leader, Tyler the Creator, is pushing a new music video that lives up to the posse's increasing rep. Watch "Yonkers" below.
"Yonkers" is one of the most unsettling, nausea-inducing videos we've seen in months: A black and white camera (which veers in and out of focus) captures Tyler noshing on insects, vomiting all over the place, bleeding from his nose, and ultimately throwing a noose around his neck and hanging himself. In short, the kind of thing you expect from Odd Future, who are as provocative onscreen as they are onstage.
Tyler's next solo album, Goblin, drops in April.
What do you think of "Yonkers"? Sound off in the comments.

Course-Level Learning Outcomes
Course-level learning outcomes are statements that describe knowledge, skills, and/or attitudes that a student should be able to demonstrate after completing a course. While instructors cannot completely control what individual students will (and will not) learn, stating learning outcomes articulates what instructors intend for students to learn.
Traditionally, course syllabi have explained course goals or objectives in terms of the subject matter and topics that the instructor will address: "this course will cover the following topics," "you will be introduced to the theoretical concepts of the field," "we will explore the current controversies," etc. Student learning outcomes are slightly different from course goals and objectives. They are written in detailed, student-centered language and describe the learning that "comes out of" a course and can be observed and assessed, e.g., "students will be able to apply the theoretical concepts to current controversies."
Establishing course-level learning outcomes is important to the educational process for several reasons:
Course-Level Learning Outcomes and Program-Level Learning OutcomesNearly all degree-granting programs at The New School have articulated student learning outcomes for the program. Program learning outcomes summarize what should students have learned over an entire curriculum up to the time of graduation. Course-level learning outcomes are more specific, describing learning that takes place in an individual course.
Program learning outcomes and course learning outcomes are, of course, related, since students can achieve program learning outcomes only by learning and practicing them in their courses. For example, a learning goal for the Parsons BFA in Fine Arts states that students who complete the program will be able to use the appropriate visual and conceptual vocabulary to articulate their artwork and the work of others. A sculpture course within the program should support this goal and so might have as a specific course-level goal that "Students should be able to explain their work and critique classmates' work using the visual and conceptual vocabulary of sculpture." In a well-designed and coherent curriculum, each course will have a particular role in introducing, reinforcing, or aiding students in mastering a program goal. Some of the learning outcomes of a course will connect to program-level outcomes, but many courses will also have learning outcomes specific to the course as well.
Course-level learning outcomes should be written in a distinct way so that they are understood by students. Read Writing Course Level Learning Outcomes (PDF) for a one-page summary of how to create well-written learning outcomes for your courses.

losing more teeth. this time i was chewing gum and bits of teeth were sticking to the gum and breaking off and i'm the moron WHO KEPT FREAKING CHEWING THE GUM.
ok, universe, i get the message.
What? That I asked you who it was and you refused to answer until you finally admitted it was Brad Pitt - whom you don't really like all that much.
Did I tell you about the dream I had the other night where I walked in on Em making out with the bathroom mirror like a middle schooler?
It was so completely ridiculous. She's not even tall enough to reach the mirror behind the sink. heh.
that sounds like one of those dreams that leaves you waking up exhausted. like a weird sort of brain hangover.

I notice a lot of these hypotheticals, not all by any means, but quite a few, contain an element of being the hero.
There are a lot of multiple attackers, involvement of children, women victims, saving a cop whose being overpowered, etc.
How many of you fantasize about being the hero with your gun? I readily admit as a new gun owner and as I am still considering CC or not, I have these fantasies. I feel stupid for having them, because the real reason to CC is self defense not to be a superhero. The chance of ever having reason to use a CW is slim and I would guess the opportunity to be a hero even slimmer, but the thought is there.
I notice a lot of responses indicate "you are not law enforcement." Having a gun doesn't mean jump into any situation you encounter.
Why do people have these fantasies?
After having read here for a number of weeks and having been to numerous gun shows, I think that gun owners fall into two generic categories
1. Gun enthusiasts. They hunt, target shot, carry, but don't really think much about it except that it's a tool. They care about gun rights, but aren't extremists. Carry for protection.
2. Heroes. They are proud of the fact that they carry, believe they can double tap someone right in the precise part of the brain that kills someone instantly so that the BG can't pull the trigger of a gun held to a hostage's head, even reflexively. Mack Bolans. Totalitarian government is right around the corner and they are the cornerstone of defense. They will stop a criminal someday.
Crap, another post that will annoy some, but I'm only describing what I'm seeing.
Agree, disagree? Set me straight if I'm wrong. Or yell at me - it's only the internet...

Step 1: Pick / refine your design
Step 2: Salvage materials, gather tools
for tools, my main instruments were:
-circular saw with cut-off wheel
-marker, or something else with which to mark pipe
-tape measure
-welder (battery-based will do finely; I used a flux-core, 175-amp setup) and associated safety gears
Step 3: Cut vertical supports
Step 4: Add horizontals
FYI to others who might consider this project. I have heard that you should make sure you have plenty of ventilation when welding Galvanized materials otherwise you might get sick (no long term impact, but short term impact is like the flu). Happy welding.

The Oscar-winning actor was in France filming A Good Year with Gladiator director Ridley Scott last year, and locals in Bonnieux feel sure the baby was conceived there.
And Crowe hinted the French are correct at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony last week, when he confirmed reports his wife was expecting. He said, "She's [Danielle] due in July, so it's a French conception."
The mayor of Bonnieux, a hilltop village in Southern France, was delighted by the rumors and has invited the couple to return.
He says, "It would give us great pleasure if one day, during a trip to France, they stop by Bonnieux so we can make their baby an honorary citizen."

Oticon, Inc. Joins with Hearing Care Professionals from Across the Country
to Build a Habitat for Humanity Home during 2008 AudiologyNow! Convention
Somerset, NJ January 3 Oticon, Inc. today announced plans to donate a Habitat for Humanity home for a low-income family in Charlotte, North Carolina that will be dedicated in celebration of the American Academy of Audiologys 20th Anniversary. Oticon will raise the walls on the single-family dwelling during the 20th annual AudiologyNow! Convention in April. Construction for the new home will involve a team of volunteers made up of hearing care professionals and Oticon, Inc. employees from across the country.
We chose a humanitarian effort that would reflect our commitment to People First and allow us to partner with hearing care professionals, as we do everyday, in making an important difference for individuals and families, stated Peer Lauritsen, Oticon, Inc. president. Habitat for Humanity was a perfect fit because the organization plays such an important role in improving the quality of life for many people in need, just as hearing care professionals enrich the lives of people with hearing loss by providing expert care and hearing solutions.
Preliminary blueprints for the Habitat project are now underway. Key to the success of the effort will be securing volunteers from among the thousands of hearing care professionals who will travel to Charlotte for the AudiologyNow! Convention.
The Habitat house construction is a wonderful way to raise the profile of hearing care professionals and demonstrate the hearing care communitys commitment to making a positive difference for individuals and families, added Lauritsen. We encourage hearing care professionals to join with us in building this very special Habitat home. We welcome volunteers who can spare as little as half an hour to support this important cause.
Habitat for Humanity and professional construction managers will work with hearing care professionals and Oticon employees to build the house. Volunteers can sign on to join the Oticon Habitat for Humanity team by logging onto www.oticonusa.com and clicking on Special Programs in the Professionals section.
Recognizing that not everyone who wishes to support the Habitat project will be able to participate in the construction, Oticon, Inc. will also provide a donation to Habitat for Humanity for each Oticon hearing device purchased from February 1 through April 5.
Volunteers will begin working on the Habitat for Humanity home sponsored by Oticon, Inc. on Wednesday, April 2 with a celebratory wall raising scheduled for Friday, April 4.

Frederik Gerhard Hendrik Meijer (December 7, 1919 – November 25, 2011) was the Chairman of the Meijer hypermarket chain in Michigan, United States.[1]
Frederik Meijer was born in Greenville, Michigan.[1] In 1962, he launched Meijer Thrifty Acres with his father and pioneered one-stop shopping.[1] He inherited the company in 1964, after the death of his father, Hendrik Meijer.[1] In 1990, he handed over the company to his sons, Doug and Hank, though he remained the Chairman of the Board until his death.[1]
He helped establish the Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park.[2] An Honors College at Grand Valley State University is named for him.[3] A Chair in Dutch culture at Calvin College is also named for him.[4] As of September 2011, he was worth US$5 billion.[1] He was the 60th richest person in the United States at the time of his death.[1][5]
Fred Meijer died on November 25, 2011 at the Spectrum Health System in Grand Rapids, MI after suffering a stroke in his Grand Rapids home in the early morning hours, reported by the Grand Rapids Press.[6]

AP: Corbett will sign, and Education grades delayed
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) – Amid Pennsylvania's stalled debate over how to raise more money for highway funding, state Transportation Secretary Barry Schoch says Gov. Tom Corbett would sign either a plan that passed the Senate or one that passed the House Transportation Committee. Schoch said Friday there will be plenty of blame to go around if no progress is made soon.
Schoch warns that more bridges may get weight restrictions in the coming months and that damage to the state's economy is growing. A spokesman for the fractured House Republican majority says floor votes are possible on amendments to both bills in the next week or two. A spokesman for the House Democratic minority says the caucus hasn't been asked by Republicans to join talks to help find common ground.
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) – Pennsylvania education officials are delaying the release of performance scores for all 3,200 traditional, charter, cyber and technical schools following complaints about technical errors that resulted in many tests not being properly counted. Department of Education spokesman Tim Eller said Friday that the performance scores would be released four days late, on Oct. 4, instead of Monday.
Even then, some performance scores are likely to be incomplete. Eller says schools have until 5 p.m. Monday to let the department know if they would like to suppress questionable data until corrections are made. Until then, Eller says the agency will compute a rating using available data and issue a revised rating later. The problem involves the Keystone tests, which were given for the first time statewide in 2012-13.
PITTSBURGH (AP) – A 40-foot tall yellow rubber duck has arrived in Pittsburgh to open an arts festival. The duck is the idea of Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman. A downtown bridge has been closed to vehicles and is filled with parents, children, and vendors for a welcome party. Various versions of the duck have made a splash in harbors from Hong Kong to Sao Paulo since 2007.
The duck's arrival marks the start of the Pittsburgh International Festival of Firsts. The duck will be moored near Pittsburgh's two major league sports stadiums until late October. Each city builds its own duck, and the whole project includes massive pontoons, crews to inflate and deflate the duck, and in Pittsburgh, alerting the Coast Guard to the unusual maritime creation.

Becoming aware of eye care issues and how to limit their impact on the life that you live would be one of the best ways to limit the burden that this subjects your family to in the future. Do not assume that your eyes are fine because of the fact that they are aligned correctly, this would lead you down a path of making poor decisions that could impact your vision dramatically for years to come. Instead, you want to make sure that you are seeing an eye care professional on a regular basis for the purpose of getting a checkup, like eye doctor irving tx.
When you get a clean bill of health attached to your vision, you would be able to feel secure about not having to worry about struggling to see things that are in front of you or make out the faces of family members or co workers.
If you are unable to see the details on a page or make out the shape of faces, this may be a sign that you are in need of eyewear as quickly as possible. Getting a prescription from your doctor would be a quick and painless process that comes about after you have completed the exam. Once you have your prescription, it would be time to select glasses that you are going to wear as needed. If they are for general purposes, you would need to wear them at all times. However, many people are fine simply wearing glasses when they are attempting to read. Once you figure out what your specific needs are, you would then be able to shop for glasses in some very stylish frame choices and bold colors that are going to fit very well with the unique personality that you have to offer. Caring for your eyes can be fun and easy with a bit of reading.

As with some other things to keep in your car, check your owner's manual to confirm the type of cables or booster system you can safely use. The traditional four-clamp setup may not be an option, or there may be specific points in your engine bay to serve as connectors, as opposed to the battery posts themselves.

"How much ya bench?" probably gets thrown around more than any other question within the realms of strength or athleticism. The emphasis on bench pressing is evident by the international celebration of "Monday Chest Day" where benches across the world are occupied. The man that moves the most metal commands the respect of other men. If your bench press numbers hit a standstill, try mixing in heavy singles or doubles (1 to 2 reps at 85%+ of your 1-rep maximum), heavy negatives down to safety pins (doing the negative portion of the lift only with 100%+ of your 1-rep maximum) and 2-board pressing (benching with two 2x4s taped together on your chest, allowing you to move more weight through a partial range of motion).

"The 2006 Eroica delivers fresh mandarin orange and lime aromas and flavors with subtle mineral and slate notes. This Eroica shows the warm vintage through its slightly richer, bolder style than the previous vintage. Although slightly more fruit forward, the 2006 Eroica still achieves complexity from the diverse mix of vineyards we source from - including higher elevation vineyards on the fringes of the Columbia Valley, as well as the more traditional older vines from the Yakima Valley." - Bob Bertheau, Winemaker
The first five vintages of Eroica Riesling (1999-2003) were named to Wine Spectator's "Top 100" list.
"I have long believed that a Riesling revival would have to start with a prominent New World winery like Chateau Ste. Michelle."- Ernst Loosen, Dr. Loosen estate
#10 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2008
Scents of raspberries and blueberries intertwined with briar patch spices. Ripe raspberry and blueberry flavors persist. A hint of creamy oak and a silky and refined texture with a juicy character. Juicy acidity and integrated tannins smooth the finish.
Excellent paired with red sauces, pizza, BBQ, and a variety of meats and spicy cuisine.
"A seductive and vigorous Zinfandel, with smoky black cherry and blueberry aromas and youthful wild berry, sage and cracked pepper flavors that have a lingering finish and zesty tannins. Drink now through 2012." 93 PointsWine Spectator

This could be really cool, we should at least try it maybe, we'll see if anyone else is interested.
Giant Bomb Server?
Count me in... don't know about Admin duty but it sure would be nice to play with a community i trust. Also i just read Herobrine may become an actual feature which will probably make single-player way too creepy for me :-)
How exactly does multiplayer work? Does everyone just get to build together? I might buy the game and play if there's a Giant Bomb server.
" @commandercup: Yeah it's missing a lot of single-player features at the moment (he's fixing things every week though), but basically it's just a big world for building stuff in. I can imagine it will be pretty awesome when he gets more of the features in though. I can imagine building a huge fortress with everyone and defending it from hordes of enemies while other players are assigned to go mine for more ammunition and supplies... "Crazy, I'll probably end up buying it once that Paypal business is cleared up. Looks sort of like Garry's Mod meets Legos.
I was thinking of trying out minecraft, maybe getting on a giantbomb server will persuade me.
I'd absolutely be up for playing on this. Unfortunately I don't think I can commit to playing enough to do any admin stuff, though if there was a shortage I could mod from time to time.
" @arch4non: I was noticing a griefer on just a second ago and wish I could do something about it, so if you need another for admin I don't mind to fill in. He was going by the name milkmilkmilk if you notice him up to it again btw. "Well the alpha version is WAY better, it has dynamic water so it doesn't instant flood things and you can make waterfalls. Plus there is a crafting system and weapons and armor, and the TNT explodes, and lots more.
However, you need to actually buy the game to play in the alpha version right now, which will eventually become the beta, and then full version of the game. So its not for everyone since everyone doesn't pay =P Its really awesome and half off right now.
My Minecraft name is Axxol.
" @Axxol: Alrightl, I made you an operator.Thanks.
@Centimani: I saw that, it looked pretty cool! Too bad the roof cut off the top. I wonder if there are map editors out there which will let me increase the dimensions of the map. "
" @Axxol: Alrightl, I made you an operator.2 questions:

1- How do I get out of the spawn jail?
2-How do I ban someone?
Well that was interesting...I've been playing a butt-load of Survival Mode in Alpha and was going in expecting that. I forgot about this style of play. If i can get my old hardware up and going again I'm thinking i may have to get a role-playing Survival Multiplayer server going on.
" That big sonic was my creation :> Too bad i hit the ceiling. "I've told you before, but that sonic statue is awesome.
So I can't get in without OPs online? Man, that sucks. Just put a password on the server. Or give me OP... either works :P
Yea, we need to find a better way of handling the spawn jail so people can get in if they are supposed to be there. Arch4non, is it alright to make new OP's? A guy named Taith has been around on the server alot, and he was wanting to be made an OP. He's been contributing to the server, but he's not a GB user. Just wanted to check with you before I did anything like that.
I've also got some screens of things I've added over the course of the day. ^_^
I've got plans for a few more, thinking maybe I should stop taking up so much room though.
PS: I never left the jail open >_>
I'm on now, this stuff is all really awesome, I couldn't create anything of this calibre if I tried! Well done guys.
Unfortunately I no longer have the sprite the original sonic was based off of, so he had to be put down...
But I found a replacement!
I'm gonna drop a few more screens in here as well.
That's not my Sonic btw... I got a little competetive. Sorry.
Perhaps a balloon fetish?
If someone has a box with a good internet connection I can setup a Linux SMP server. I'm running one now for myself and some friends but my home internet connection probably won't be good enough for a Giant Bomb SMP server. We could try it though if no one has a better internet connection.

Last week's fiscal cliff deal hammered the last nail in the coffin of the CLASS Act, a part of president Obama's health reform law that would have allowed Americans to begin prepaying for their long-term care. In reality, it was dead anyway when the Obama Administration determined the CLASS Act was not technically workable and announced in the fall of 2011that it would not go forward.
The CLASS Act may be gone, but the need it tried to address remains, and PBS's Need to Know program that aired last Friday deserves a CJR Laurel for showing how big the problem really is. It was one of the most compelling and informative long-term care pieces I've seen.
The program, narrated by Scott Simon and Karla Murthy, expertly wove together a discussion of long-term care policy with the nuts and bolts of one family's experiences giving care to a loved one. It demonstrated the human and financial cost of providing long-term care, a looming problem the nation has yet to acknowledge. Consider how many words have been written in recent months about the challenge of Social Security and Medicare spending, and how few have discussed how long-term care for an aging population might fit with the Beltway's budget-ax mentality. PBS reported that about 70 percent of those people over age 65 will need long-term care, which could include help with bathing, dressing, and eating. People are living longer, but millions will live with debilitating conditions that Murthy reported will "need more long-term care than ever, and that care is going to come with a huge cost that most aren't able to pay."
Need to Know told of the Feldman family and how 94-year-old Mary had been cared for the last 10 years by her son Lynn and his partner Ned, both in their 60s, an age when many find themselves caring for parents in their 80s and 90s. The family has spent all of her $100,000 in savings on her care, so she now qualifies for California's Medicaid program. The state pays for about 45 hours of home care each week to help out Lynn and Ned.
Caregiving is tough work, and PBS offered a compassionate portrayal of both Lynn and Ned and the isolation that Ned, the stay-at-home caregiver, has experienced. "I was isolated. And I mean very, very lonely. And I never left the house," he told Murthy. He became angry with Lynn, who got to talk to people at work. People who are taking care of loved ones at home "forget to take care of themselves and love themselves," Lynn told PBS. That's a common problem that family caregivers face.
Murthy also interviewed Mary's geriatrician at UCLA Medical Center, Dr. Bruce Ferrell, who has followed her decline over ten years into the depths of Alzheimer's. She is lucky to have a specialist in geriatrics—not a popular calling for young doctors these days, largely because it doesn't pay as well as other medical specialties. Ferrell told Murthy that caring for a loved one is "one of the most common causes of loss of wealth for our families and our children."
The program explored options for financing long-term care and laid out some stark facts. The government estimates that nursing home costs average around $72,000 a year and that people will need an average of three years of care. So if all that care is in a nursing facility, some families will shell out more than $200,000. Elderly people with income and assets will have to spend most of it on care before Medicaid will pay the bill. That's what Mary Feldman did. Those without resources will qualify for Medicaid more quickly. Need to Know also debunked the widespread misconception among the public that Medicare pays for long-term care. Medicare was not designed to cover nursing home costs, and pays only for 100 days of care in a skilled nursing facility, and not for help with bathing and dressing.
One of the program's most useful contributions was the exploration of long-term care insurance as a solution. Scott Simon interviewed Robyn Stone, a long-term care expert who worked in the Clinton White House and is now executive director of the Leading Age: Center for Applied Research. The market for long-term care insurance has not grown substantially, Stone said. "It's not a solution for all of us in the United States."
Why not? It's too expensive for most families. And people with certain health conditions, like dementia, wouldn't qualify anyway.

"I had to use this to self-address 400+ envelopes. After 100 stamps the snowflake does start to fade but if you leave it be for 20+ minutes then use it again it works just as well as the first impression would. Very satisfied and happy with this product."
"I was originally worried that I couldn't preview the stamp, but I purchased it anyways just to try it out. I love the way it came out. Stamp comes out clear and it's really easy to manage. I put my name and my fiance's name on the stamp with our address to make sending out wedding invitations much easier and with a nice personal touch. I'm looking forward to sending them out!"
"This is a nice, professional, simple design. Great if you want a clean and conservative look. The stamp itself is high-quality and makes a crisp stamp with one push."
"I ordered this stamp for my business. I wanted something with just the business name on it and this is perfect. I have ordered tiny prints self inking stamps before and can always expect to get exactly what I ordered. I will continue to order from tiny prints."
"This is the perfect size stamper for gift card and #10 envelopes alike. First the specs felt smallish (But I got it anyway on a gamble). Then I felt the device was BIG when it showed up… BUT they knew what they were doing and it's perfect. ink coverage is good and it is a really handsome font combo."

One of the factors in any business is how to to get your marketing message out, as well as how to support your business with customer engagement. One of those ways is to develop an iPhone/iPad app for your customers.
Or better yet, think about developing for your customer's customer.
So, the real question is: How does creating an iPhone/iPad app help you with your business?
Innovations: sometimes coming full circle
When it comes to innovation, sometimes you actually come full circle to what the real "improvement" was in the first place. Here's a great commercial that explains what I'm talking about, in this case, it's about our food supply.

KOEZY – Perfect for Cold Weather
We're chatting with our friends over at KOEZY this week. KOEZY answers an untapped need in the women's apparel market– a wraparound jacket that transitions from indoors to outdoors and combines style, comfort, practicality and affordability.
1. Tell us about KOEZY. It seems like such a fabulous idea – a warm wrap that you can dress either up or down – and wear practically anywhere.
KOEZY provides the first ever stylish layering accessory that fuses contemporary fashion with warmth and comfort. Our right-weight micro fleece fabric provides cozy warmth in a wide range of temperatures. Each KOEZY is long-sleeved, has an adjustable closure, fits into any lifestyle and transitions easily from inside wear to outside wear. KOEZY can be layered over an existing outfit, adding more style. This timeless garment is lightweight, wrinkle free, washable, and reasonably priced – and available in four sizes.
2. Where did you come up with the idea for KOEZY?
On a cool summer night in 2011, Chicagoland neighbors Kathy Brosmith and Marcia Hischke were wearing Snuggies on a lakeside dock with a group of friends. They found it difficult to get up or to reach for anything because of the clumsiness of the Snuggie! The conversation led to how awkward, ugly, and impractical the Snuggie is. All the women on that lakeside dock admitted to owning an "Ugly Black Sweater". The group decided that these products were totally humiliating. It was agreed that women everywhere need an accessory to enhance their outfit while being stylish, fashion forward and functional – indoors as well as outdoors. The KOEZY idea was born!
Kathy and Marcia decided to create a fashion statement that could be proudly worn in public yet comfortable and cozy, stylish and chic – unlike the ratty sweater or the Snuggie. Their search was fruitless. No other women's product had the features they needed and wanted. They both agreed KOEZY is the answer!
3. The holidays are on their way. Are KOEZY's easy to order and what kind of sizing information to buyers need to know before purchasing gifts? What colors do you offer?
KOEZY was designed to be roomy so it can be used as a layering piece. Our sizes are small (2-6), medium (8-12), large (14-18) and extra-large (20-24)—which is more generous than most extra larges).
KOEZY is available in three popular colors to accessorize any outfit: black (with turquoise closure), ivory (with tortoiseshell closure) and camel (with tortoiseshell closure).
As a special treat we will offer Wickedly Chic readers a special price of $39.99 (a $10.00 savings). Readers just need to put holiday in as the coupon code!
4. There are many people out there who are thinking about becoming an entrepreneur or who are just getting started. What one piece of advice can you share that you wish you knew before you started?
We were challenged with how to best sell KOEZY. We counted on internet sales when in fact we learned the best way to sell KOEZY is directly with a sales force. Our advice for entrepreneurs is to test different sales channels before you launch.

Timothy L. Macdonald, PhD
Synthetic organic and bioorganic medicinal chemistry
The over-arching goal of the Lynch Lab's research is to understand better the biology of lysophospholipid signaling, particularly in the context of pathologies. The central strategy remains the development of tools (mostly small molecules) with which to probe lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) biology; in the past year they have complemented this chemical biology approach with mouse genetics. The chemical entities that were developed during the past two years include a high affinity LPA3 receptor selective antagonist, S1P1 receptor selective agonists, S1P1 receptor selective agonists that are pro-drugs and a S1P1/S1P3 receptor antagonist. The synthesis of all of these molecules was done in the laboratory of their long-term collaborator, Professor Timothy L. Macdonald.
The LPA3 receptor selective agents have been crucial in identifying that receptor type as functioning in the LPA-mediated kidney damage in a mouse model of acute renal failure, as documented by another collaborator, Professor Mark D. Okusa. The S1P receptor reagents have been helpful in understanding the mechanism of action of the immunosuppressant drug, FTY720, and were instrumental in identifying the endothelial S1P receptor type (S1P1) responsible for monocyte adhesion to the vascular wall, which is an early step in the atherosclerotic process. Both LPA and S1P receptor antagonists are being tested currently as anti-angiogenesis agents in the chicken CAM assay and selected compounds will be taken forward to matrigel implant assays in rodents. Very recently, the Macdonald Lab has provided them with a high affinity LPA1 receptor antagonist that they believe will be stable metabolically; this compound will be tested by Professors Theresa Guise and John Chirgwin in a breast cancer (MDA MB231 cells) model of bone metastasis - a phenotype that is accelerated by overexpression of the LPA1 receptor in these cells. The lab is exploring also the use of a secreted, LPA-generating, non-mammalian (brown recluse spider) phospholipase D to learn the effects of local LPA production on tumor development in athymic mice.
Genetic tools include a conditional KO of the LPA3 receptor gene (contracted, delivery Fall 2005), LPA1 receptor KO mice (gift) and a sphingosine kinase 2 (SPHK2) KO mouse (internal). The SPHK2 null mouse allowed us to document that the pro-drug, FTY720, is metabolized to the active principal (FTY720-P), by this isotype. This discovery is described in a manuscript submitted for publication recently; Professors Vic Engelhard, Ken Tung, Tim Macdonald and Klaus Ley are co-authors.

PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — North Korea says it has executed Kim Jong Un's uncle as a traitor for trying to seize supreme power.
Jang Song Thaek was considered the country's No. 2 and had been seen as a kindly uncle guiding young leader Kim Jong Un as he consolidated power.
Pyongyang's statement Friday calls him a "traitor to the nation for all ages," ''worse than a dog" and "despicable human scum." It alleges Jang planned a military coup.
The official Korean Central News Agency indicates that Jang saw the death of Kim's father, Kim Jong Il, in December 2011 as an opportunity to challenge his nephew and win power.
Just days ago, North Korea accused Jang of corruption, womanizing, gambling and taking drugs, and said he'd been "eliminated" from all his posts.

I certainly underrated the 2010 Pape Clement from barrel, rating it only 93-95+. (Thank God I put a 'plus' there!) Having tasted it four times in Bordeaux, and rating it perfect three times and 99 the fourth time, this final blend of 51% Merlot, 47.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 1.5% Petit Verdot is perfection in a bottle. ...Its sublime elegance, the power, the medium to full-bodied texture, the silky tannins, the subtle notes of smoke, lead pencil shavings, black currants, charcoal, camphor, blueberry and cassis fruit are all remarkable. It is a rich, full-throttle wine, but the elegance and the great terroir of Pape Clement come through in abundance. It is slightly more developed and evolved than the 2005 was at a similar point in its evolution, but it certainly needs another 5-7 years to develop further nuances, which it surely will. This wine will last 30-40+ years. Kudos to proprietor Bernard Magrez, who has built an empire based on high quality more than any other characteristic. (2/ 2013)
Intense blueberry nose with great precision and expression. Full and vibrant on the palate with a minty note. Vanilla. Wonderful structure. Firm but ripe tannins and very long. Needs time to soften. Great potential. Try in 2016. (2/ 2013)
A smooth, dense wine, ripe and polished. It brings out a modern view of Bordeaux, dark and concentrated, hinting at the new-wood aging. At the same time, the wine has a serious edge that promises proper aging. (3/ 2013)
Nicely toasty, with a lovely broad stroke of mocha and ganache spread over the velvety core of plum sauce, blackberry coulis and steeped currant fruit. The long, polished finish keeps a tarry thread running along with the fruit, adding length and range. Not shy on style. Best from 2018 through 2035. (3/ 2013)
Bright ruby-red. Complex but restrained aromas of spiced plum, strawberry, mocha, iron, tobacco and sexy oak. Wonderfully rich, layered and concentrated, with a chewy, high-extract quality to its powerful cassis, blueberry, camphor and licorice flavors. Compellingly chewy but without any easy sweetness. Wonderfully intense but not at all overextracted, conveying an impression of medicinal reserve that suggests this wine will be very long-lived. The extremely long, elegant finish boasts noble tannins and lovely energy and lift. A great vintage for this wine, but hands off for at least six or seven years. 94(+?) points. (8/ 2013)
Some smoky oak on the nose and more sweet oak on the palate - lots of chocolate though there's pure rich fruit too. Tight and dry on the finish, even a bit hard. (11/ 2012)

While the weather on Saturday afternoon may not have been frightful, it was less than ideal. But that didn't stop the Aztec community from coming together to Explore SDSU. Thousands of prospective, admitted and current students, as well as alumni and community members, attended SDSU's annual Open House on Saturday morning."This is the third Open House I've been too, and this one is particularly impressive," said Jeff Plourd, vice president of external affairs for the College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts College Council. "You would think the weather would deter people, but crowds keep cycling through."
Entertaining Aztecs of all agesWith a 9 a.m. start, crowds of eager participants were ready to partake in the festivities.
The Family Village was a huge hit, giving families an opportunity to enjoy live entertainment throughout the afternoon. Kids of all ages had their faces painted, made personalized hats at the Rad Hatter booth and wore themselves out in the bounce house while listening to live tunes from "kid-folk" group Hullabaloo.
Perfect for prospective studentsProspective and admitted students had the opportunity to explore more than 100 student organizations at the Information Fair, as well as tour various departments and facilities on the SDSU campus throughout the day. Prospective students also attended workshops for their potential majors to get a head start on their college careers at SDSU.Even when the event officially ended at 1 p.m., several people remained, soaking up as much of campus as possible.This event was part of SDSU Month, a monthlong celebration of San Diego State. SDSU Month features 31 days of artistic, academic and athletic events, special offers from local businesses and a partner-supported media campaign to raise awareness of SDSU's outstanding people and programs.

Facebook Statuses About Love
Love is one of the hottest topics in social networking. Indeed, many people go looking for romance on the net, and a popular way to grab it is via love Facebook statuses. A way to pursue the object of your affection on Facebook is to post love Facebook statuses. However, you must be careful how you word Facebook statuses about love, as the wrong style could get you blocked!
Know a nice status? Don't hesitate, add it, (please use English though):
Select a category:
Submit status
No matter where i am or what I'm doing, when you come to mind a smile always comes on my face
Just because I'm not entertain you this few days, doesn't mean I don't care about you anymore, I'm just not in the mood now .
Saying ''okay'' a million times just to get your parents to stop talking.
I love you with all I am and all I can give. I love our time together and miss you so much when we're apart. Your the love of my life - Always & Forever
One day you're gonna remember me & how much I loved you. Then you're gonna hate yourself for letting go.
When I say "It's nothing... Or "Really, I'm fine... I want you to look me in the eyes &say "Tell me the truth"
when you find love you don't wanna let go :D
Losing touch with people you care about is the WORST.
One of the hardest things in life is deciding whether to walk away or try harder.
i don't ever want to grow far apart because my heart really likes you
Cuddling with you would be perfect right now.
Everyday I tell myself I need to get over you, But every night I find myself thinking about how much I want you back. :/
"If someone is dumb enough to walk out of your life. be smart enough to let them go"
I wish my phone would vibrate right now and your name comes up on the screen.
I could write you a song, I could daily change my status. But either way you will never know how my <3 longs for you
Really likes a boy, but isn't sure if he likes her back. :
If you stay, stay forever.
If you go, do it today.
If you change, change for the better.
&if you talk, make sure you mean what you say.
A relationship is more than finding the right person, it's also about BEING the right person.

Coming on the heels of Athens state Rep. Doug McKillip's 64 vote defeat at the hands of primary challenger Regina Quick, the Georgia Democratic Party has swiftly laid claim to credit for Quick's win.
A press release included this:
Election analysis suggests that well over 1,000 Democrats crossed party lines to vote against McKillip in the Republican primary. The Democratic House Caucus and the State Party helped promote the effort, and progressive activists in Clarke County enthusiastically responded.
"We'd love to have a Democrat running in that race, but redistricting made the seat much more conservative," Berlon acknowledged. "Instead, we focused our efforts on increasing Democratic turnout in a Republican primary, an extremely difficult thing to do." Ironically, the effort's success came from many of the same Democratic incumbents that McKillip had once helped to lead. "The Democratic House Caucus' political efforts were extremely effective this cycle," said Berlon.
Last week, it was documented that House Democrats had blasted a mailer to Democrats in Athens urging them to hold their breath and "vote for anyone but Doug McKillip". Quick's campaign apparatus itself had previously disclosed donations from prominent Democratic lawmakers including Rep. Kathy Ashe (D-Atlanta) and Rep. Mary Margaret Oliver (D-Decatur), as well as Athens Mayor Nancy Denson.
As the previously mentioned press release notes, McKillip switched parties shortly after running unopposed for a third term in 2010, then as a Democrat.
In an email, a state Republican operative had this retort, directed at the assertion that redistricting had made the seat too conservative for Democrats to field a candidate:
…the new HD 117 (25% minority) went just 54% for Deal in 2010. If that's "too conservative" for them to field a candidate, I would hate to see the candidate recruitment in other swing districts.
Though McKillip possessed legal grounds to request a recount, he has declined to do so.
-Brandon Howell
[Full Disclosure: Prior to beginning my current job, I had a brief stint as McKillip's campaign manager.]
