CENTRAL POINT, Ore. — As the former head of the Southern Oregon High Tech Crimes Task Force is investigated for possible wrongdoing, central point police say there should be no impact on that unit.
Central Point Police Lt. Josh Moulin had led the High Tech Crimes Task Force since its inception, and helped agencies across Oregon investigate a number of cases of child pornography and computer crime. A week ago, Moulin resigned, after he became the target of an investigation by Oregon State Police and the Oregon Department of Justice investigation.
The Jackson County District Attorney's Office asked the Department of Justice to get involved, to avoid a conflict of interest because of Moulin's close working relationships with local authorities. D.A. Mark Huddleston would not comment on the specifics of the investigation, only that it involves possible wrongdoing.
The Central Point Police Department says there will not be any major impact on the high tech crimes task force or their current and previous investigations and that the unit is now being led by a special agent with the FBI.
The District Attorney says there's no reason to believe this investigation will compromise any criminal investigation Moulin was involved in with the task force. The D.A. is asking the Oregon Department of Justice to find out whether Moulin broke any laws in the suspected wrongdoing, and has asked the department to prosecute the case if there were.

Release Date:
January 13, 2008
The various releases of The Very Best of the Doors during 2001 and 2007 in the U.S. and the U.K. are very similar, both in their single-disc and double-disc permutations -- as well as a limited edition that adds a DVD to the two-CD version -- so it's very easy to get all three compilations confused. That said, there are notable differences between all three U.K. comps and the original U.S. set. The American disc from 2007 weighs in at 16 tracks while the single-disc U.K. set is longer at 20 tracks and, in fact, boasts a stronger overall selection of songs, making this arguably the best single-disc introduction to the band yet assembled. The double-disc U.K. set doesn't just add a second disc, it has a different sequencing as well and consequently feels like a very different beast than the original set. It's a compilation that digs deeper into album tracks and radio favorites, sometimes getting songs that maybe should have been on the U.K. single disc -- such as "Five to One," for instance, a Doors standard that's on the U.S. single disc but not the U.K. -- but its real strength is how it paints a richer portrait of the band. It's for the listener who wants a bigger picture of the Doors without investing in the actual albums or a box set and, in that sense, this Very Best of the Doors (along with the version with the DVD) does its job well. So, choose wisely: if you're looking for an introduction or just the hits, take either of the 2001 or 2007 single discs; if you're looking for most of the best, pick the double-disc set, either with or without the DVD; if you know you love the band already, go for Perception. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

London: Mayor Boris Johnson summed up the euphoric mood around Britain when he saluted the host country's "extraordinary" haul of six Olympic gold medals on Saturday as UK media went wild with Games fever.
In Focus | Olympics London 2012
Britain hails golden moment for sport
Media frenzy over host's six medal victory
- Image Credit: AFP
- Britain's Dani King (left), Laura Trott (right) nd Joanna Rowsell (centre) pose with their gold medals after winning the London Games women's team pursuit final track cycling event.
Two golds in rowing and one at the cycling velodrome were followed by a hat-trick of victories in athletics from Jessica Ennis (heptathlon), Greg Rutherford (long jump) and Mo Farah (10,000m).
Britain, who enjoyed their greatest Olympic day since 1908, took their collection of golds to 14 at the London Games to lie third in the overall medals table behind the US (26) and China (25).
"Their extraordinary efforts have brought rapture to streets, parks and living rooms in London and all over the country if not the planet," Johnson said in a statement.
"It has been a remarkable first week and my hearty congratulations go to every single athlete that has taken part," Johnson added.
"They have entertained billions of people around the world and I for one cannot wait to see what they serve up for week two."
British newspapers continued the theme, the front page of the Sunday Times describing it as 'Our Finest Olympic Hour' alongside a spectacular picture of Rutherford flying through the air in mid-jump.
The Daily Telegraph had one word for it - 'Sensational'. The headline ran above photos of all six British gold-medal victors from the second Saturday of the Games.
'That Was Pure Gold' was the Independent's reaction with a sub-heading that read: 'One by one we counted them in on another astonishing day of British Olympic success.'
In cycling, Laura Trott, Dani King and Joanna Rowsell crushed their own world record to humiliate the US in the team pursuit final, flying along a spine-chilling, ear-splitting wall of noise in the 6,000-capacity London Velodrome.
The trio added to the men's pursuit and sprint teams titles and Victoria Pendleton's keirin gold as Britain continued their utter domination, having broken eight world records and left their rivals only one gold in three days.
On Saturday, King, Rowsell and Trott, at 20 years and 102 days the youngest Olympic gold medallist in women track cycling, produced an awe-inspiring display of power and poise and looked on the verge to lap the Americans in the final. "They kept us going in that last kilometre. You couldn't even feel your legs, you were just driving forward," King told reporters.

When Douglas Reeman decided to write a series set during Nelson's time in the Age of Sail, he had been smitten with England's 'wooden world' since he was a boy visiting HMS
in Portsmouth.
It was 1968 when the first Richard Bolitho story,
To Glory We Steer
, was published under the pen name Alexander Kent. The author's protagonist in this debut novel was Captain Richard Bolitho of the British frigate
. Over the next forty years, Alexander Kent chronicled the life and times of Bolitho, from midshipman to admiral.
The Bolitho saga continues with the life and times of Adam Bolitho, Richard's nephew.
This section is dedicated to the world in which Richard and Adam Bolitho live within the pages of Alexander Kent's novels. Over time, photographs documenting primary sites in the novels will be added to those already online.
The Duchy of Cornwall was to play an important role in the Bolitho series, especially the port of Falmouth, with its vast bay and Carrick Roads, on Cornwall's south coast. It was in Falmouth that the author placed the Bolitho family home, the 'big grey house'.
"Taking up residence in Cornwall was part of the preparation," explained Reeman. "I started at once after I'd gone down there, getting a feel for the whole area, places of historical note ... I'd already done a lot of research on the period because I was always interested. I combed the local churchyards around Falmouth, St. Mawes and the Roseland Peninsula collecting names. Even the name of Bolitho's wife Cheney came from the church of King Charles the Martyr in Falmouth.
"I've always liked Falmouth, used to go there as a child with my family, and again in the navy, and when I started writing I went there in my boat.
Douglas Reeman's approach to Falmouth Bay and Carrick Roads from the sea could have been described in
To Glory We Steer
(chapter two): "The Phalarope was anchored well out in Falmouth Bay, her sleek shape black and stark against the sea and watery sunlight ... The ship had made a slow approach towards the headland ..."
And then readers are introduced to Pendennis Castle: "By his side, hudled in his boat cloak, Lieutenant Thomas Herrick sat in silence, his eyes watching the rain-soaked hills beyond the town and the grey, timeless bulk of the Castle above Carrick Roads."
In the Kent novels, the family home had been in Falmouth for generations of Bolithos, who had gone to sea in the service of their country.
"The Bolitho house isn't really in Falmouth at all - I just saw it one day, and I knew it was Bolitho's house," said the author. "The only trouble was, it was in the wrong place, so I had to move it from its real location in a peaceful rural hamlet in deepest Cornwall, not far from the King Harry ferry. Right house, right period, everything, so I relocated it."
The first description of the Bolitho house readers encountered as in chapter two of
To Glory We Steer
, 'Beware, the Press!': "Bolitho halted below the church wall and looked up the familiar street which ran beside the churchyard. At the top of the road was the house, its square, uncompromising shape, the familiar grey stonework, as enduring as his memory of it."
So much was said in that spare sentence that would forever tie readers to Bolitho's Falmouth ... the Church of King Charles the Martyr
It was a scene that would appear again and again in the books to follow from Alexander Kent, though in varying seasons and weather conditions.
"You may ask, why was Bolitho Cornish?" queried the author. "He arrived being Cornish in my mind, and I was happy about that.
And when my American publisher, Walter Minton, said, "What are we going to call this guy?" I said without hesitation, "Richard Bolitho," which was the name of a distinguished old chap I'd met some years earlier in the Channel Islands when I'd sailed my boat there. He was the brother of the Lord Lieutenant of Cornwall, and it is a very Cornish name - you can't open a phone book down there without finding a whole lot of them. He lived to know that I'd borrowed his name, and he was, I think, quite pleased about it.
And when I returned to Surrey from my stay in Cornwall, I moved into the house I had been having renovated, and renamed it 'Bolitho Cottage'.
Portsmouth Royal Dockyard
As a lad, Douglas Reeman visited Portsmouth Royal Dockyard with his grandfather. It was here that he he first glimpsed Nelson's flagship at Trafalgar, HMS
Visitors today enter the Dockyard through Victory Gate, formerly Main Gate, which was completed in 1711. Passing through the gate, you follow the footsteps of kings, queens, admirals, seamen, soldiers and dockyardmen who served their country during trying times.
Strolling down Main Road, one's imagination can lead back to the days of Nelson and Bolitho, with the Mast Pond on the right and Storehouses 9, 10 and 11, with 10's clock tower, on the left, and HMS
's masts in view.
These same scenes proved to be an inspiration for Douglas Reeman years later when, after serving in the Royal Navy during the Second World War and beginning a carer as an author, he launched
To Glory We Steer
and Richard Bolitho was born.

(3) You don't mention the depth problem, and that's big. An OL needs some depth, something that we can definitely appreciate around here.
I'm assuming that Colon, Starks and Foster are gone - at least 2 of the 3. So that's why I say that "the OL is STILL a problem." But, let me also say that I'm very happy with the progress that we've made from a few years ago, and optimistic. It's just that we're definitely not there yet; the hole we're digging out of was very deep indeed.
Gilbert only played 5 games and was placed on injured reserve. How can you judge a players "regression" when he didnt play that much? He should have been given reps at LT instead of Adams from the start of training camp.
Lack of depth?? Steelers havent had depth in over 10 years. Keydrick Vincent, Sean Mahan, Legursky, Tony Hills?? Cant have many pro bowlers for depth in the salary cap era.

What's the Issue: Methylmercury Exposure
Exposure to mercury affects the immune system, alters genetic and enzyme systems, and damages the nervous system, including coordination and the senses of touch, taste, and sight (1). Methylmercury is the most toxic form of mercury. People are exposed to methylmercury almost entirely by eating contaminated fish that are at the top of aquatic foodchains (2)
Research to Practice: Ecosystem Research to Characterize Methylmercury Exposure Routes in the Amazon
Regional increases of mercury levels in fish were generally thought to be directly attributable to mercury releases from local gold mining operations. However, an extensive three year study, conducted from 1994-1997 along the Tapajós River basin, shed new light on the question (3). These studies demonstrated that mercury from mining operations contributed only a small percentage of the total mercury found in the river (4). |
As with any of the chemical elements, mercury exists naturally as part of the Earth and over time, the ultimate sink for mercury is in the sediments of the Earth's oceans and lakes (5). The scientists linked high mercury concentrations with the initiation of slash-and-burn agriculture, a common practice in the Amazon today. By removing trees, loggers and 'slash and burn' farmers unearth naturally occurring mercury deposits bound to soil particles and rains wash this mercury rich soil into nearby water ways where it is converted to methyl mercury (a form easily taken up by fish and humans).
Researchers established a close relationship with the community to educate community members about the risks of eating different fish species through posters depicting methylmercury concentrations in different types of fish. Local residents also began to change agricultural techniques. In a joint initiative with researchers, small farmers identified the crops that could improve diets and reduce the intake of mercury (6). The researchers also worked with local fishermen to identify the stretches of river that would have lower methylmercury levels and be safest for fishing.
These interventions based on scientific evidence and carried out in collaboration with the local community have produced concrete results: from 1995 to now, measured mercury levels in local residents dropped significantly (7)
What's Next? Further Research on Ecosystem Health and its links to Human Health
Further research that examines the links between ecosystem and human health is vital to understand environmental determinants of human diseases. The rapid economic development and urbanization of countries in the Latin American and Caribbean region are exacerbating a whole host of emerging and re-emerging environmental health threats. The World Health Organization estimates that worldwide, 13 million deaths could be prevented every year by making our environments healthier (8).

We love being campground owners because we get a chance to be with other campers everyday that are here to have fun, relax, and enjoy the peace that our campground offers. We have always enjoyed camping and hope you will have a great time here with us at Honesdale/Pocono KOA.Tim is from Pennsylvania,and decided that office politics is a thing of the past! He always wanted to have a campground and asked Debby if she could see that vision after one year of marriage. Debby never camped until she met Tim and asked "You want me to cook in where?" in reference to their 24 foot, no slide out RV. What a long way the campers have come! Debby is from Massachusetts, moved south to get warm, and how did we end up in North East Pennsylvania again?
Truthfully, the Pocono's are a great place to be and you get four full seasons each year. Very cold and snowy winters to hot, sunny, summer days. We loved this campground on sight and hope you will join us in that love.

Dr. Sacchettini first came to Texas A&M in 1995 and opened the laboratory in the biochemistry department. Since that time, the lab has greatly expanded in size as well scope and techniques. The lab strives to be on the cutting edge of technology and to supply its members with all the possible resources to accomplish their goals.
We are working on several projects, using structural biology to answer questions about different diseases that affect human health. Please click on the links below for more information on the work being done in this lab.
Tuberculosis | Malaria | Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
What is it? Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by a bacterium. Approximately two billion people, one third of the Earth's population, are infected with TB, mostly in the third world although there has been a resurgence in the first world due largely to the spread of HIV/AIDS. There are approximately 8.5 million new active cases and 2 million deaths annually from TB. Most of these deaths are preventable with antibiotic treatment. T
Causes of TB
The causative agent of tuberculosis is bacteria from the Mycobacterium species, mostly Mycobacterium tuberculosis, although other mycobacteria such as M. bovis can also cause TB disease in humans. The bacteria is spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. M. tuberculosis usually infects the lungs (pulmonary TB) but it may also infect the lymphatic system, circulatory system, the skin and other organs (systemic TB). By far the majority of people infected with mycobacterium do not develop symptoms and do not spread the disease to others, this is known as latent TB infection. In latent TB infection a small amount of TB bacteria remains in the body but is kept in check by the immune system, unable to cause disease. If, however, the immune system is comprimized, such as through serious illness, it is possible that the latent infection can become an active TB infection.
Active TB infection can arise immediately after being infected with TB bacteria or it may develop from an existing latent infection. It is during active TB infection that it is possible to spread the disease to others and when symptoms are presented. Symptoms include coughing, weakness, weight loss, fever, chills and night sweats.
Current treatment
Both active and latent TB infection are treated with antibiotics. There are currently several antibiotics in use to treat TB infection, divided into the categories of first line drugs, the first drugs used to treat TB infection, and second line drugs, used when the first line drugs are not effective in eradicating the bacterium. The table below lists some of these drugs.
In over 95% of cases, TB disease is treatable using the first line drugs alone over a period of six to nine months. However, due to poor health care practices, two new strains of TB are emerging that are resistant to antibiotics, multidrug resistant TB (MDR-TB) and extremely drug resistant TB (XDR-TB).
MDR-TB is defined as TB that is resistant to the two most commonly used anti-TB antibiotics, isoniazid and rifampicin. A recent survery by the WHO has found that MDR-TB represents approximately 5% of all new TB cases worldwide, and represents over 15% of new cases in some countries. This is an increase from an earlier WHO survery, highlighting the need for new drugs to fight TB infection.
XDR-TB is MDR-TB that is also resistant to three or more of the existing six classes of second line anti-TB drugs, making it virtually untreatable. It also has a high mortality rate compared to normal TB. The WHO reports that XDR-TB has been identified all over the world but it is most commonly found in the former Soviet Union and Asia. In the U.S., 4% of MDR-TB cases met the criteria for XDR-TB.
The Sacchettini lab is part of a consortium of labs that are researching TB and looking for new ways to combat this bacterium. Click the link below to find out more:

What is it?
Malaria is a widespread vector-borne disease caused by parasites in the Plasmodium family (specifically Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium ovale, and Plasmodium malariae) and transmitted by the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito. Each year between 300 and 500 million people are infected and more than one million people die, most of them children and pregnant women. Malaria is associated with tropical and subtropical climates because the warm temperature allows the Anopheles mosquito to grow year round.
Causes of malaria
A female Anopheles mosquito ingests a blood meal from an infected person which contains gametes. Fertilization occurs in the mosquito's gut and sporozoites develop which are then injected into the next host when the mosquito feeds. The sporozoites travel to the new host's liver and develop into merozoites which then penetrate red blood cells and develop into gametes which are taken up by another mosquito.
There are no vaccines against malaria. Malaria control is divided into two categories, prevention and treatment. When in a high risk area for malaria people are encouraged to use insect repellent containing DEET and to wear long sleeves and pants to avoid being bitten by mosquitos. Sleeping under a treated sleep net also prevents being bitten and being infected. Once a person is infected there are several drugs that can be used that target the parasite in the blood including chloroquine, sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine, mefloquine, atovaquone-proguanil, quinine, and doxycycline. However, widespread use of these drugs and poor health care management has resulted in the development of resistance especially against chloroquine. Additionally the Anopheles mosquito has developed resistance to many of the commonly used insecticides, making prevention efforts more difficult.
Economic Impact
The economic impact of malaria on poor countries and individuals is enormous, with some highly affected countries spending significant portions of public health care funding on malaria treatment. Individuals with malaria not only pay significant portions of their personal income on treatment but also suffer decreased attendance at work and schools, perpetuating a cycle of poverty.
Sacchettini Lab Papers on Malaria:
Discovery of novel inhibitors targeting enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase in Plasmodium falciparum by structure-based virtual screening
In vitro efficacy, resistance selection, and structural modeling studies implicate the malarial parasite apicoplast as the target of azithromycin
Mutational analysis of the triclosan-binding region of enoyl-ACP (acyl-carrier protein) reductase from Plasmodium falciparum
Targeting tuberculosis and malaria through inhibition of Enoyl reductase: compound activity and structural data
Structural elucidation of the specificity of the antibacterial agent triclosan for malarial enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase
Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is a cancer that originates in lymphatic tissues. Last year, 20,210 people died from NHL in the US. Standard treatment for an aggressive type of NHL consists of IV infusion with a chemotherapy cocktail known as R-CHOP. R-CHOP therapy results in complete remission in 75-80% of people and 50-60% of those remain free of this deadly disease for 3-5 years. Unfortunately a significant number experience early treatment failure (they dont respond), partial response (they respond but their disease does not go away), or relapse (their disease disappears but recurs several years after treatment is stopped). Patients with recurrence who initially respond to R-CHOP but then develop new tumors appear to respond less optimally when a new course of R-CHOP is begun and many eventually die. Therefore treatment of NHL is, like many other cancers, hampered by resistance to our drugs. We have created a novel platform to develop drugs that combat drug-resistant cancers. Using this platform we hope to develop a drug that will improve cure rates by reducing drug-resistance of cancer cells to current combinatorial drug therapies and lowering the toxicity of current treatments.

text: 5 As good as Peep Show?Posted: 10/06/2008There, I've put it on the table. I am a girl and thought this series was hysterical, was desperate for Thurs nights to come around and am so chuffed it's out on DVD now. Some of the put-downs and awkwardness are on a par with Peep Show I think. Loved the guy who plays Simon, he should go far - he's well funny!!! If you didn't catch it on E4, it's worth the £. Let's hope E4 do some more of these, as they rocked!

Riverbed Steelhead, or any other WAN Optimization appliances, need to be purchased, shipped and deployed; that much is obvious. But then there is also the ongoing time and effort to manage and maintain the devices: patches, software upgrades, software configuration, etc. If you want network-wide visibility, that means buying and deploying still more network monitoring/visibility software and managing that as well as the hardware it runs on, and the data it stores. And between MPLS service and the appliances, provisioning additional capacity can be very expensive, time consuming or both. Sometimes upgrading bandwidth even means purchasing a bigger appliance.
With Aryaka's WAN Optimization as-a-Service solution, we take the hassle out of deploying equipment. You can be up and running in minutes with your traffic accelerated across the Aryaka network. As part of our service model, we're the ones doing the maintenance of the WAN Optimization software and the network reporting, so that you don't have to. Our multi-tenancy architecture drives our costs down, so we can pass the savings on to you.
Riverbed and other WAN Optimization appliance solutions were designed for deployment across a reliable – and expensive – private WAN like MPLS, and they basically assume an underlying low-loss, stable latency WAN in order to deliver peak performance. Aryaka's WAN Optimization as-a-Service packages a dedicated core network with built-in diversity and redundancy based on globally distributed POPs together with our cloud-based WAN Optimization technology. You get reliability and stable low latency across the globe, combined with the application performance benefits that WAN Optimization delivers – without having to pay separately for MPLS.
As noted above, WAN Optimization appliances have been designed for deployment across locations connected with a reliable private WAN like MPLS. They weren't designed for accelerating or providing predictable performance access to cloud computing services such as Amazon Web Services, or SaaS applications like Salesforce.com, accessed over the public Internet. But congestion-based performance problems resulting in high packet loss rates and high latency happen periodically on the Internet, especially for international connections, and can make remote access to SaaS and cloud services sluggish or unusable.
Aryaka's solution combining enterprise grade connectivity, WAN Optimization functionality and WAN and application visibility, all accessed over the Internet (or using direct L2 connections to one of our POPs), was designed from the ground up to provide accelerated, predictable performance to cloud-based services and enterprise locations alike, making it a particularly cost effective solution to enable enterprises to migrate more of their applications to cloud computing and SaaS providers without sacrificing performance or network predictability, reliability and visibility. Traffic between your locations and your SaaS or cloud services providers rides our optimized network to get directly to, or at least very close to, the colocation facilities where the services are offered, delivering much better performance for those connections crossing an ocean, and more predictable performance all the time compared with using the unaided public Internet.
Buying and deploying Riverbed boxes for each enterprise location is expensive, when you consider the total cost of ownership (TCO), which includes the often-overlooked costs of annual maintenance, ongoing support and replacing the devices when their hardware becomes outdated. Don't forget the cost of visibility/reporting software. Oh, and then there is also the high monthly cost of the underlying MPLS WAN service needed to provide the expected network reliability and predictability.
Aryaka's solution, which combines cloud-based WAN Optimization technology, enterprise-grade connectivity via our dedicated reliable core network based on globally distributed POPs, and centralized WAN and application layer visibility all in a single solution which simply costs less. Less than using WAN Optimization appliances over public Internet VPNs and a lot less than the cost of WAN Optimization appliances plus MPLS. All with a single monthly bill with no CapEx costs and no extra or hidden costs for reporting/visibility, maintenance or future upgrades. You pay only for what you need, when you need it. We offer elastic capacity with instant upgrades, so you can quickly and easily add bandwidth across our network as your needs grow, with no risk of wasted upfront CapEx investment.
With the traditional approach of MPLS from a service provider combined with Riverbed or other WAN Optimization appliances, you typically need to buy additional management visibility software to get a central view of application performance. Then, you'll also need separate third-party tools to gain visibility into the performance of your WAN.
With Aryaka, you get the web-based MyAryaka portal for network-wide visibility for both network connectivity and application performance and usage of the network. It provides advanced traffic analysis and the ability to zoom in to a very granular view of what is happening over your WAN – all with nothing extra to purchase and no extra databases to provision or manage.
Riverbed and other WAN Optimization appliance solutions were designed for deployment across a reliable private WAN like MPLS, and they assume the underlying WAN connectivity is reliable and predictable. Consequently, they just don't perform well when the WAN is comprised of public Internet-based VPN connections. This is especially true for WAN connections spanning an ocean, where not only is latency higher on average, but where the Internet has many more frequent congestion issues, and where the associated high packet loss and jitter will even more severely impact application performance.
Aryaka's WAN Optimization as-a-Service combines our dedicated core network connecting globally distributed POPs together with our cloud-based WAN Optimization technology. So you get reliability and stable low latency across the globe, together with the application performance benefits that WAN Optimization delivers. In particular, our multi-segment solution combining POPs located near end user locations with that low latency, stable private core between those POPs not only results in far fewer congestion problems in "the middle mile" than Internet VPN solutions offer, but also far better performance from our WAN Optimization functionality than a customer-owned WAN Optimization appliance at each location approach can deliver when congestion does occur at the first or last mile.
With Riverbed or other WAN Optimization appliances, even after they are first deployed, you are responsible for managing and maintaining the equipment, software upgrades and any visibility / reporting database and software. With Aryaka's WAN Optimization as-a-Service, like MPLS and unlike Riverbed appliance solutions, we do all of that management and maintenance for you, providing SLAs and 24/7 support for your fully managed network service solution via NOCs located on opposite sides of the world.

In Fairhope, AL, regular walk-to-school events are scheduled to help create a sustainable program that will change behaviors and enhance the community's walkability.
Three schools in Fairhope serve elementary-age children: Fairhope K-1 Center, Fairhope Elementary School for second and third graders and Fairhope Intermediate School for fourth and fifth graders. Each school has approximately 500 students.
The first step toward raising community awareness about walking occurred when the City of Fairhope Police Department and Planning Department together organized "Walk Your Child to School Day" in October 2008 to promote safety, physical activity, and concern for the environment. As parents and caregivers walked with their children, they taught children the proper way to cross the street and other pedestrian safety rules, and they also observed first-hand potential safety issues. Many parents and students showed up to walk to school despite the rainy weather.
During this Walk-to-School event, the Walkable Communities Committee of Smart Coast, an area non-profit that raises awareness about sustainable growth in the coastal Alabama counties, surveyed participants about whether they would be interested in more frequent walk to school events. Out of 80 surveys that were distributed, 60 respondents said they wanted to participate in a monthly event. Smart Coast talked with principals from all 3 schools who agreed to promote the monthly walk. Themes were established with a fun focus and soon a new culture of walking to school was being re-established.
One portion of the survey asked respondents about barriers to walking.
"You've really got to identify what the parent fears are," says Charlene Lee, Program Director of Smart Coast.
The resulting program evolved into two parts, Lee says: The first issue was to address safety by building sidewalks, and the second issue was to address behaviors.
In 2008, the Baldwin County Commission was awarded a $182,840 Safe Routes to School infrastructure grant from the Alabama Department of Transportation to construct a 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk 4,479 feet long along Boothe Road between Spring Run Drive and Twin Beech Road. The sidewalk will provide a way for students to walk to Fairhope Middle School and the high school.
Smart Coast has partnered with the Baldwin County School System and the Fairhope City Planning Commission to hold weekly First Friday Fun Walks to School to area elementary schools. They identified three park-and-walk locations located within a half mile of the schools and provided prizes to encourage participation. Parents and students met at 7:15 a.m. at Big Lots, First Baptist Church and the Civic Center and walked to Fairhope Elementary, Fairhope Intermediate and Fairhope K-1 Center. The walks have incorporated special guest walkers and "treat" coupons.
Each month, more than 160 students and parents from Fairhope K-1, Fairhope Elementary, and Fairhope Intermediate School participated in the walk-to-school events.
"We're seeing our numbers begin to rise," Lee says. "It is starting to rebuild the thought process of realizing a culture of walkability. In our last 2 walks, we had over 200 students along with many parents and grandparents joining in the walks."
A survey showed that all of the 83 people who responded would like for the walks to continue next year. Lee hopes that the program can be used as a model for other communities.
"Our surveys showed parents overwhelmingly supported this 'walking school bus' notion on a monthly basis," continues Lee. "It's about living in a more healthy, connected fashion — making a choice to park the car and get out with your community to interact. Fairhope is fortunate to have many schools that indeed are walkable — we want to show the community what a treasure that is. Smart Coast's Walkable Communities Committee is looking into what will make walking to school a regular activity again — and safe routes and a sense of fun are key."

I've had these towels now for about 2 weeks. They really are quite comfortable. I'm rather tall, and to have the towels be long enough to cover my lower extremities is a plus. All towels in the set are plush. One note, WASH THESE IMMEDIATELY AND ALONE. I thought I washed 3 light brown cats when I pulled my light load out of the washing machine. And drying didn't immediately remove all the lint. Great Product though.
good buy- i washed and dried the towels and the color is still very bright - prompt delivery - towels were soft- would buy another set :) very happy with the purchase
I washed these towels twice on a normal setting to remove the lint, before using them. After two washings there were threads coming out all over them. I definitely recomment that you not buy these towels.
The color bleeds and fades turining to yellowish.... The color came out after the first use... I can only use them for cleaning.. complete waste of money.. they are now unsightly after one use.
These are very nice towels! My husband even commented on how good they feel. They do leave a little bit of lint the first few times, so I recommend that you wash them alone before using.
these towels are perfect very soft
Colors vibrant good choice
I wasn't as happy with these ... Too easy it pull threads :(
Love! Exactly what I wanted.
Towels are a little thick but good to absorb up all the water and they're soft and nice to use

And I definitely think it's time to go back to ninety percent Nitro. Actually, I think it's time to lift any restriction of any kind regarding nitro percentages. The track, the prevailing weather of the moment, and any accumulated abuses the racing surface has endured are the final arbiters of whether nitro cars will smoke the tires, not nitro percentages. Let the crew chiefs decide what goes into the tanks, and let the chips fall where they may. Don't worry about the oil downs and the down time. Drag racing is not, and never will be a real candidate for live television. And despite the verbiage from so-called experts to the contrary, I have yet to meet a drag racing fan who was in a hurry to leave a national event. So why try to hurry up the show?
Do you think there are too many sanctioning bodies out there? I don't. I believe there is room for a few more, provided they bring us something not available from the big boys. Yes I'm going to use the dreaded "N" word. I would really, really like to see someone put together a viable nostalgia based national event schedule featuring Nostalgia Top Fuel, Nostalgia Nitro Funny cars, and no rules Fuel Altereds. It's been tried by better men than I, and something always gums up the works. It remains my fervent hope that someone will try again, and get it right this time. If a Nostalgia national event tour does come to pass, it will most likely do so on the drawing power of the nostalgia funny cars. I know of roughly a dozen racers who would field a nostalgia funny car in a heartbeat, if they had venues to race at. Post a purse, tell them when and where to be, and they will be there. At least that's what I'm thinking.
And now for something I would like to see less of. Let me wish a quick death to all shows like Pinks, King of the Strip, and any other like-minded shows. I do not begrudge any of the folks involved their paychecks, but I do feel the shows give the general public an unfavorable impression of hot rodders and drag racing. Basically, these shows are based around one racer who tries to sandbag his way to fame and fortune, usually at the expense of someone who is a better racer than they are. Work off a handicap start, go heads up do anything but lie and connive and cheat to get your mugs on TV. Do that, and respect will be earned, and given! Enough said!
See ya next month. By then, I'll hopefully have banked enough real estate commissions to start up that nostalgia funny car I've always wanted. Later!

Childcare workers win $1.4bn subsidy
PUBLISHED: 19 Sep 2012 00:03:00 | UPDATED: 19 Sep 2012 08:20:34PUBLISHED: 19 Sep 2012 PRINT EDITION: 19 Sep 2012Treasurer Wayne Swan and Shadow Treasurer Joe Hockey exchange opinions behind the Speaker's chair during question time at yesterday. Photo: Alex Ellinghausen
Laura Tingle, Marcus Priest and James Massola
Prime Minister Julia Gillard is expected to announce a deal that will lead to childcare workers' pay in effect being subsidised by the budget amid increasing tensions within the federal government about its unfunded spending spree.
Ms Gillard is expected to meet today with the United Voice union, which represents childcare workers, amid signals cabinet has signed off on a deal said to be worth $1.4 billion a year for the sector.
Treasurer Wayne Swan yesterday faced sustained questions from the Labor backbench about Labor's big-spending plans.
Shadow treasurer Joe Hockey told the Coalition party room he believed Labor faced a revenue shortfall of $20 billion to $25 billion, largely due to a fall in company tax receipts and lower commodities prices.
Mr Hockey claimed the government planned to move the mid-year budget update forward from late November or early December so that some of the costs of its policy announcements were not included in the economic update.
Against a backdrop of European economic decline, difficult circumstances in the US and China's economy slowdown, Mr Hockey said the Coalition would not make any rash economic promises. The Prime Minister held a crisis summit with the childcare sector in June – amid rocketing fees – at which a range of possible forms of government support were canvassed, including paying childcare centres directly in exchange for moderated fee rises, creating a single childcare payment and subsidising staff pay.
Some senior Labor figures yesterday privately accused Ms Gillard of making a deal to help shore up union support for her leadership.
Other MPs have questioned why the budget will subsidise childcare workers while cutting single parent benefits and not increasing veterans' entitlements.
Mr Swan faced questioning in the weekly caucus meeting from five MPs concerned about the government's plans.
In the Labor caucus room yesterdayon Tuesday, outspoken Labor Left senator Doug Cameron, Tasmanian MP Geoff Lyons, NSW MP Janelle Saffin, NSW MP Ed Husic and Victorian MP Kelvin Thomson expressed concern about the government's spending priorities.
Senator Cameron called on the Treasurer to consider broadening the tax base to pay for some of Labor's promises and quoted the Treasurer's weekly "economic note" back to him on the fall in the ratio of tax to gross domestic product.
Senator Cameron linked his call for a tax rise to concerns about job losses in the federal public service and cited Germany as an example of a country with higher taxes and well-funded infrastructure and services.
Finance Minister Penny Wong signalled yesterday that the government would seek to protect public service jobs from budget cuts.
"We will make responsible and measured savings to target resources to where they are most needed and will continue to look for non-staffing savings as a priority," she said.
Mr Swan batted away Senator Cameron's suggestion of raising taxes, arguing Australia didn't want taxation at German levels and that the country needed to be competitive in the Asia-Pacific region on the tax front while maintaining good services and infrastructure.
Mr Hockey then took up the attack in question time, asking Mr Swan to rule out using funds from the budget to pay a multibillion dollar wage subsidy for workers in the childcare sector who are not even employees of the federal government.
The Treasurer said he would not rule anything in or out when it came to budgets.
Labor has outlined a series of big-ticket policy promises in recent months, including a National Disability Insurance Scheme costing $2 billion in 2013-14 and up to $10.5 billion in 2018-19; a $4 billion, two-year dental care package from 2013-14; and changes to school spending that may eventually cost $6.5 billion annually.

When we first heard about Super Street Fighter IV a few months ago, we felt like Capcom was getting ready to milk its fans. A few new characters just didn't seem to justify a completely new stand-alone title when they could've been distributed via DLC. But after spending some time with an early build of the upcoming follow-up to our favorite fighting game of 2009, Super Street Fighter IV doesn't seem like it'll be a bad deal at all. In fact, it looks like there's more than enough content to keep fans happy. In addition to new characters, we'll see lots of new online modes, and the return of classic bonus stages. Plus, plans to tag the title with a lower price tag than the original, further sweetens the deal.
Return of the bonus stages
Barrels will be broken and cars will be totaled. We were pleased to witness the return of the much-loved bonus stages in a recently released trailer. These stages have been sorely missed since Street Fighter II. But what we're really excited about, is taking the bonus stages to a whole new level of awesomeness with Dan Hibiki.

Team Battle
Team Battle will pit four groups of players against each other. When you're not fighting, you'll be in spectator mode, where you can cheer your teammates or offer unwanted advice on how to play better. We're already familiar with Grade Points (GP) and Championship Points (CP), but it looks like Team Battle will introduce PP, a new point system to help keep teams balanced.
Replay Channel
You can spend as much time in the training room as you like, but studying high ranked players is the way to go if you really want to improve. The new Replay Channel will let you view matches from the highest ranked players in the world and will also let you save your own matches for repeated viewing. The user interface shown in the screenshot below is still in development, so this may not look like this when the game releases next year.
Endless Battle
We miss the good old days when crowds gathered around arcade machine to watch titans clash. That's why Endless Battle is the mode we're looking forward to the most. In it, the winner stays and the loser moves to the back of the line in your game's lobby. It looks like it'll recreate the anticipation of placing your quarter on the arcade cabinet's dash and calling "next" as you studied the defending champion for signs of weakness.

Four children's books will be recognized this week for authentically portraying characters with developmental disabilities.
The books — two chapter books and two picture books — are winners of the Dolly Gray Children's Literature Award. The honor handed out every other year since 2000 goes to books that include main or supporting characters with developmental disabilities.
This year's award, which will be given Thursday at the Council for Exceptional Children's Division on Autism and Developmental Disabilities conference in Miami Beach, Fla., honors fictional books and biographies published in 2010 and 2011.
Winners include the chapter books "Mockingbird" by Kathryn Erskine and "Waiting for No One" by Beverley Brenna, both of which center on characters with Asperger's syndrome.
The picture book "My Brother Charlie" written by actress Holly Robinson Peete and her daughter Ryan Elizabeth Peete won for portraying life with a sibling who has autism. And, Rebecca Elliott's picture book "Just Because" is being honored for including a girl with multiple disabilities.
"Engaging books that feature people with disabilities as individuals with personalities, strengths and talents as part of the storyline, have the exponential power to change attitudes and promote inclusion in education, jobs and community life," said Fran Prezant, one of the Dolly Gray Award panelists. "These are important, not only for young readers with and without disabilities, but for parents and teachers who read books to them and model societal attitudes through words and actions."

Books like this are very important, but are tough to get into the mainstream. Large publishers are often relutanct to take works from unknown writers and the small publishers don't have a big reach. You would be surpized how any books exist that have charaters with disabilities that are virtually unknown
How does someone get nominated for this book. I know a very special author.

I made 2 1gal batches of mead. 1- 3lbs honey,apple cider, spices, fresh orange zest. the other 3lbs honey whole orange(sliced) and 2 cloves. the 2nd is doing great. the first looks to have made lots of yeast but is just laying on the bottom and no action on the airlock. i did add yeast nutrient to both as well. I forgot to sanit. the orange i got the zest from. would the pesticieds kill the yeast? What happened?
Did you rinse off the orange before adding? I suppose pesticides could kill it, but I would doubt that just the amount of some zest would be enough. You can't rely on airlock activity to determine fermentation. There are so many different factors that can will cause or prevent airlock activity. Do you have signs of fermentation? Is the mead bubbling? Has the gravity changed? Is there a possibility the yeast was not good? Or was the same batch of yeast pitched for both meads? If, like you said, it made a lot of yeast in the bottom, more yeast than you initially added, then I would say it's working. More yeast means they are multiplying, so they would still be alive and working.
"Stop giving me credit for those stupid quotes! For that last time it wasn't me! STFU NOOB!" <-- Benjamin Franklin
Didn't rinse orange. no bubbles in the mead. about a 1" - 1 1/2" of snotty like substance on the bottom of the jug. i'm sure some of it is from the unfiltered cider the rest looks like the yeast that i pitched but a lot more. I pitched the yeast on Friday, the other batch with the other 1/2 of the yeast is blowing throught the airlock. haven't checked the gravity. i'll give it another 2 days and see what happens. if nothing then i'll be asking for suggestions. Thanks

Little man is almost 1 1/2 and has started some new things which make me laugh so hard...
The first is he is wanting to share his snacks, which means I am getting half eaten cookies or crackers pushed in my mouth when least expected. (It's the thought that counts!)
The second thing he has started doing is bending over to look at me laughing with his head between his legs - just too cute.
And the last new thing is this week he realized he can snort like a pig :)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Warren Adelson (born 1942) is an American art dealer, art historian, and author specializing in 19th and 20th-century American Painting as well as contemporary art.[1]
Adelson was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, the son of Beaze (née Gellar) and Harry Adelson.
He opened his first gallery in Boston in 1965 on Newbury Street, Boston. Adelson Galleries exhibited Boston Impressionists, 19th-century American landscape and figure painting, and contemporary art.[2]
In 1972, Adelson joined Knoedler Galleries in New York, where he worked on the development of their American paintings department for one year.
In 1974, he joined Coe Kerr Gallery in New York and became a partner with the principal owner, R. Frederick Woolworth, the following year. There, he organized exhibitions and catalogues of American Impressionist painters including Mary Cassatt: An American Observer,[3] Maurice Prendergast: The Remembered Image,[4] John Singer Sargent: His Own Work,[5] and ''Sargent at Broadway: The Impressionist Years''.[6] He also produced several exhibitions of new work by Jamie Wyeth, as well as the exhibition, "Portraits of Each Other, 1976," which featured images of Andy Warhol and Jamie Wyeth. The exhibition traveled to many museums throughout America and drew large crowds.
In 1990, Adelson re-established Adelson Galleries in New York and continued to specialize in 19th and 20th-century American art. The gallery regularly exhibits works by artists such as George Bellows, Charles Burchfield, Mary Cassatt, William Merritt Chase, Thomas Eakins, Childe Hassam, Winslow Homer, John Marin, Georgia O'Keeffe, Maurice Prendergast, John Singer Sargent, and Andrew Wyeth, among others. In addition, Adelson Galleries represents several contemporary artists including Jacob Collins, Andrew Stevovich, Stephen Scott Young and Jamie Wyeth.[7]
Under his direction, Adelson Galleries has produced numerous exhibitions and books, including Sargent Abroad: Figures and Landscapes,[8] From the Artist's Studio: Unknown Prints and Drawings by Mary Cassatt,[9] Maurice Prendergast: Paintings of America,[10] Andrew Wyeth: Helga on Paper,[11] Sargent's Venice,[12] Frederic Edwin Church: Romantic Landscapes and Seascapes,[13] Jamie Wyeth: Seven Deadly Sins,[14] Mary Cassatt: Prints and Drawings from the Collection of Ambroise Vollard,[15] John Marin: The Late Oils.[16] and Sargent and Impressionism.[17] Many of these exhibitions included paintings on loan from distinguished public collections such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Royal Academy, London. Sargent's Venice was conceived and organized by Adelson Galleries and traveled to the Museo Correr in Venice, 2007.
Adelson is an internationally recognized authority on John Singer Sargent, and he initiated scholarship on the John Singer Sargent Catalogue Raisonné in 1980 in partnership with the artist's great-nephew, Richard L. Ormond. The first seven volumes of the Catalog Raisonné have been published by the Yale University Press. The two final volumes will follow, vol. 8 in 2014, and vol. 9 in 2016.[18][19][20][21][22][23][24]
Volume IV of the Catalogue Raisonné was awarded First Place for Scholarly and Reference Books at the 2007 New York Book Show Awards and chosen by Choice magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title from 2007.[25] Adelson was also among the noted Sargent scholars who authored Sargent Abroad: Figures and Landscapes.[26] His recent publication, Sargent's Venice, won the Award of Merit at the 2007 New York Book Show and a rating of "Outstanding" from the 2007 University Press Books Committee.[27]
Adelson has lectured extensively on Sargent at institutions including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Minneapolis Institute of Art; the Denver Art Museum; the High Museum, Atlanta; and the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.
Adelson has maintained a four-decade relationship with Andrew Wyeth and his family in concert with Wyeth's principal dealer, Frank E. Fowler, of Lookout Mountain, Tennessee. In November 2006, Adelson and Fowler presented the exhibition, Andrew Wyeth, Helga on Paper[28] at the New York gallery (then at 19 East 82nd Street).
Adelson holds a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in Art History from Boston University.
From 1986 to 2001, Adelson served as a board member to the Art Advisory Panel of the Internal Revenue Service in Washington, DC. From 1997 to 2002, he served on the Museum of Modern Art's Advisory Committee on Museum Archives, Library, and Research. In January 2006 he was elected to the Board of Trustees of the Smithsonian Archives of American Art. He also currently serves as the Chair of Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences Dean's Leadership Advisory Board.
Adelson lives in New York with his wife, Jan Peterson Adelson. Jan is chairman of The Board of the Hudson River Museum, Yonkers, NY, past chair of Lyndhurst, a National Trust Historic Site in Tarrytown, NY and served as secretary on the Board of Historic Hudson Valley. Jan and Warren have worked together at Adelson Galleries since 1990. Jan previously worked for Curry Fine Art and at the Ankrum Gallery in Los Angeles in the late 1970s early 1980's and assisted the painter, Shirl Goedike.
They have three children, Alan, Adam, and Alexa. Alan is employed by Adelson Galleries, New York. Adam is the Director of Adelson Galleries Boston,[29] along with Alexa, the Assistant Director. Warren also has a son, Dr. Harry Adelson of Park City, Utah, by a previous marriage.

We are very pleased with the quality of this light. It appears as depicted online. It was easy to install. 2 of the shades were broken when I received them. We called customer service and they took care of it immediately by sending us out 2 new shades. I will order from this company again.

This light is okay. It's nothing special but does seem to be well built with a solid feel. It looks alright. I don't love it or hate it, and it'll do the job to light up the bathroom.
FYI- Regular CFLs stick out the bottom of the globes.

Quality light with odd installation
By James B. from Fairfax, VA on Aug 25, 2010
My only complaint was the mounting plate which required a standard square electrical box. I needed to install an old-work box which did not line up with the holes in the mounting plate without some alteration.

Great fixture for price
By Rebecca R. from Morro Bay, CA on Jul 05, 2010

I was happy to find a four light fixture in chrome in this price range. It's an "upgrade" look from the local hardware store but at a very reasonable price. Arrived quickly with no problems. My contractor installed it without complaints.

The-Dream f/ Twista – IV Play [Original]
Here we've unearthed the O.G. version of The-Dream's single, "IV Play," which originally featured a Twista guest verse. When The-Dream dropped it as a single the T verse was wiped clean. But thanks to the internets Gods, we have the version with T's verse in tact. Verdict? He should've kept him on it.
Make sure to add this one to your collection.

You think so? I think the Twista-less version is much better in all honesty.

When General Motors Co., Volkswagen AG and Toyota Motor Corp. look into their rear-view mirrors, they see Hyundai Motor Co. When Hyundai looks behind, it sees its own smaller affiliate, Kia Motors Corp.
Hyundai Motor Co. and affiliate Kia Motors Corp., South Korea's two largest automakers, aim to increase global sales by 6.1 percent this year by improving quality and investing in research and development.
Kia Motors Corp. said today that Jeong Sung Eun resigned as vice chairman of the South Korean carmaker to take responsibility for the recent recalls of four models. President Lee Hyoung Keun will replace him.
PSA Peugeot Citroen and Volkswagen AG's joint ventures in China will benefit as a weaker euro reduces the cost of components imported from Europe, Nomura Holdings Inc. analysts said.
Union officials representing workers at Kia Motors Corp., South Korea's second-biggest carmaker, will continue negotiations with the company after a majority of employees yesterday rejected a wage pact.
The following companies may have unusual price changes today in Asia trading , excluding Japan. Stock symbols are in parentheses, and share prices are from the previous close, unless noted otherwise.
Labor union officials for workers at Kia Motors Corp., South Korea's second-biggest carmaker, said they hope to hammer out a wage agreement with management as early as today.
Hyundai Motor Co. and affiliate Kia Motors Corp. , South Korea's two largest automakers , expect to boost vehicle sales 10 percent this year because of new models and rising demand in China and other emerging markets.
Rapping hamsters and unemployment near a 26-year high are helping Kia Motors Corp. log record sales in the U.S. even as its cars plummet in quality surveys.
Michael Schumacher , Formula One's most successful racecar driver, and Lewis Hamilton , the sport's youngest champion, face unlikely competition for the limelight when they arrive in South Korea for the nation's inaugural Grand Prix: Ben S. Bernanke .

Translate this page Forty-nine Riverside County students advance to California State Science FairFriday, April 11th, 2014 Issue 15, Volume 18.
Forty-nine gold medal recipients will advance to the California State Science Fair, to be held April 28-29 at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. Two Corona-Norco Unified School District students took home top honors with sweepstakes awards â fourth grade student Kennedy Kane from Rosa Parks Elementary School and Jared Tramontano from Centennial High School. Tramontanos project was entitled Mastering Monopoly while Kanes project was named Dimensional Quasi-Attractors with Dynamical Action on Topological Manifolds. The award-winning projects were among 830 projects entered by nearly 1,000 students from Riverside, Inyo, Mono and San Bernardino (RIMS) counties. Many projects were selected as community award winners that netted additional awards including gift certificates, trophies, electronic tablets, and cash awards up to $1,000. Individual and group projects were judged in 22 categories of science â from microbiology to zoology, math and physics to electronics, and consumer sciences to earth sciences. There were three divisions of competition: Elementary (fourth- and fifth-graders), Junior (sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders) and Senior (ninth- through 12th-graders). Elementary Division participants are not eligible to compete in the state event. The regional fair was sponsored by the Riverside County Office of Education, San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools, Inyo County Office of Education and Mono County Superintendent of Schools.

Should your child need emergency care, you'll be glad to know that Covenant HealthCare has the only designated and comprehensive Pediatric Emergency Care Center serving mid Michigan and the lower north Michigan region. Open seven days a week from 2:00 PM until 2:00 AM, the peak hours of children's emergency situations, the Pediatric Emergency Care Center provides specialized emergency care for ill or injured children.
Located within the Covenant Emergency Care Center, the Pediatric Emergency Care Center augments the 24-hour care provided by our emergency medicine team. All emergency medicine physicians are board-certified and/or residency trained with specialized training to handle acute illnesses and injuries in babies and children.
The needs of children are quite different than adults, requiring more individual attention and closer monitoring. When the Covenant Emergency Care Center was being designed and built in 2000-2001, a special area was designated just for children. Each pediatric treatment room is child-friendly and appointed with child-sized medical equipment. What's more, each room is uniquely designed in vibrant colors featuring familiar childhood themes incorporating paintings, art, fish tanks, Eye Spy shadow boxes and more, which fosters a more pleasant experience for ill children and their parents. Each room also features a TV to make children feel more comfortable and provide a distraction during a procedure or test.
Should a child require more advanced medical care, Covenant has board-certified pediatric intensivists on staff to provide enhanced care in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. Additionally, in January 2004, Covenant, in affiliation with LifeNet of Michigan, began offering 24-hour air medical transport for children who are seriously ill or injured to get them to medical care as quickly as possible.
