Published: 11 August 2011Abstract
Delirium in patients with hip fractures lead to higher morbidity and mortality. Prevention in high-risk patients by prescribing low dose haloperidol is currently under investigation.
This prospective cohort surveillance assessed hip fracture patients for risk of developing a delirium with the Risk Model for Delirium (RD) score. High-risk patients (score ≥ 5 points) were treated with a prophylactic low-dose of haloperidol according to hospital protocol. Primary outcome was delirium incidence. Secondary outcomes were differences between high- and low-risk patients in delirium, length of stay (LOS), return to pre-fracture living situation and mortality. Logistic regression analysis was performed with age, ASA-classification, known dementia, having a partner, type of fracture, institutional residence and psychotropic drug use as possible confounders.
445 hip fracture patients aged 65 years and older were admitted from January 2008 to December 2009. The RD-score was completed in 378 patients, 173 (45.8%) high-risk patients were treated with prophylactic medication. Sensitivity was 71.6%, specificity 63.8% and the negative predictive value (NPV) of a score < 5 was 85.9%.
Delirium incidence (27.0%) was not significantly different compared to 2007 (27.8%) 2006 (23.9%) and 2005 (29.0%) prior to implementation of the RD- protocol.
Logistic regression analysis showed that high-risk patients did have a significant higher delirium incidence (42.2% vs. 14.1%, OR 4.1, CI 2.43-7.02). They were more likely to be residing at an alternative living situation after 3 months (62.3% vs. 17.0%, OR 6.57, CI 3.23-13.37) and less likely to be discharged from hospital before 10 days (34.9% vs. 55.9%, OR 1.63, CI 1.03-2.59). Significant independent risk factors for a delirium were a RD-score ≥ 5 (OR 4.13, CI 2.43-7.02), male gender (OR 1.93, CI 0.99-1.07) and age (OR 1.03, CI 0.99-1.07).
Introducing the delirium prevention protocol did not reduce delirium incidence.
The RD-score did identify patients with a high risk to develop a delirium. This high-risk group had a longer LOS and returned to pre-fracture living situation less often.
The NPV of a score < 5 was high, as it should be for a screening instrument. Concluding, the RD-score is a useful tool to identify patients with poorer outcome.

CJOBS-C~1dawnLRApdfLRA booklet whole-finalpmd
Chapter 1 Who is covered by the Act? Almost all employers and employees are covered. So too are jobseekers and former employees. 1 KNOW YOUR LRA Who does the Act cover? Employees and employers Almost every employee and employer is covered by the Act. People who are considered to be genuine "independent contractors"1 are not employees and they are thus not protected by this Act (or by other labour legislation). Some unscrupulous employers have, in the past, simply informed their employees that they have become "independent contractors" even if the employment relationship has not changed or have persuaded their employees to sign contracts which state that they are no longer "employees" but "independent contractors" . Those same employers often do not contribute to the unemployment insurance fund (UIF) or are covered by the compensation fund or meet basic obligations in terms of occupational health and safety legislation. In a number of judgements the Labour Court has shown that it will not accept an independent contractor contract at face value but will consider a range of factors to determine whether the person is in fact an independent contractor or an employee.2 The 2002 amendments to the LRA have clarified the issue further by providing that where a particular factor is present in the relationship between a worker and the person for whom he or she works, the worker is presumed to be an employee, unless the employer proves the opposite. These factors are whether or not a person: l falls under the control or direction of the employer; works hours which are subject to the control of another person; forms part of an organisation; l l 1 An independent contractor is a person who sells his or her services to the public and who does not fall under the control of an employer. For example a plumber or electrician. See for example, Building Bargaining Council (Southern and Eastern Cape) v Melmons Cabinets CC and Another (2001) 22 ILJ 20 (LC) and Motor Industry Bargaining Council v Mac-Rites Panel Beaters and Spray Painters (Pty) Ltd (2001) 22 ILJ 1077(N) 2 2 Who is covered by the Act? l has worked for another person for an average of at least 40 hours per month over the last 3 months; l is economically dependant on the employer; is provided with tools of trade or equipment; or only works for one employer. l l The presumption (as to who is an employee) does not apply to a person who earns in excess of an amount stipulated by the Minister in terms of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act, 1997. 3 If an employer is of the view that despite the presence of one of these factors there is no employment relationship, the employer must prove this. Applicants for jobs The Act protects people who are applying for a job from being discriminated against. The Act also provides that no person may require a person seeking employment not to be a member of a trade union or workplace forum or to give up membership of the trade union or workplace forum. Former employees The Act covers former employees who are disputing an employer's failure to reemploy them when the employer has re-employed other former employees dismissed for a similar reason. Likewise, if an employer fails to re-employ former employees in terms of an agreement to do so, this may be challenged. 3 Presently that amount is R89 455. 3 KNOW YOUR LRA Who does the Act not cover? The Act does not apply to members of the National Defence Force, the National Intelligence Agency and the South African Secret Service. This is in line with international standards. Military and secret service personnel are supposed to have a special duty towards the state and, therefore, do not have the same employment rights as other public servants. However, these personnel have the right to protection against unfair labour practices in terms of the Constitution. The Constitutional Court has held that this includes the right of Defence Force members to join trade unions. 4 Do all employees covered by the Act enjoy identical rights? Domestic workers, members of the police, and essential service and maintenance service workers are restricted in certain respects. These restrictions relate mainly to organisational rights (the rights of trade unions) and the right to strike and will be dealt with in chapters 3 and 7. Further information Relevant sections of the Act are: Section 2: Section 5: Section 186: Section 200A: Exclusion from application of this Act Protection for employees and persons seeking employment Meaning of dismissal Presumption as to who is an employee Forms to fill in No forms. 4 South African National Defence Union v Minister of Defence and others 1999 (6) BCLR 615 (CC) 4

Guided Hikes Throughout Moab, Utah
Explore nature and see breathtaking Utah scenery through one of our five guided hikes. Choose your preferred length and difficulty level, and we'll show you the best places for hiking in Moab, Utah. Make your hiking reservations through our Adventure Concierge.
Sorrel Ridge
Open only to guests of Sorrel River Ranch Resort & Spa, this is an excellent way to start the day. This hike is complimentary at regularly scheduled times. Our trail offers a 2.6-mile round trip, with 335 feet of elevation gain. At the peak, you will enjoy 360-degree views of the Colorado River Corridor, including Sorrel River Ranch, surrounding mesas and pinnacles, Rubik's Cube, and the La Sal Mountains. Choose from a guided or self-guided hike for this option.
Fisher Towers
Wander through towers of ancient time on this fun, family hike. Moab is well known for bizarre geologic formations, and Fisher Towers are some of the strangest and most unusual. You must hike through these towers to realize how impressive they are. The landscape is something out of a science fiction novel. Hikers, be aware there is a small ladder you must be able to navigate to finish the trail.
Mary Jane Canyon
This is a great hike for the hot summer months in Moab. The trail follows the stream for about 7 miles, where you'll see wildlife along the way, such as toads, lizards, birds, and deer. The scenery is fantastic and the waterfall is great to stand under and cool off. The streambed narrows and increases in height to about 100-150 feet high and 10-20 feet apart, ending at the beautiful waterfall.
Bill Canyon
This hiker-only trail winds through the canyon along a beautiful stream to Morning Glory Natural Bridge, the sixth largest natural bridge in the United States. It's a fine place for beginning hikers and children, with Morning Glory Arch just off the canyon's main section only 2 miles from the trailhead. The well-marked trail follows the canyon bottom, crossing the stream several times.

Updated combat , really bad New avatar creation. |
Agree 100%. Lotro has some of the worst melee combat in mmo history. It's a beautiful game (with ageing graphics, could soon need an update), but the combat (at least melee) is soo boring, it's unbelievable. It's so boring it's a pain to play my champion. I'm only hanging around from time to time for the story. And I agree on the characters too. |
Ah yes, the combat. It's quite unbearable and ruins the experiences for me. I tolerated it for a long time because the rest of the game was gorgeous. Then it went free to play and I went goodbye. |

Originally posted by tomr0897 I stopped playing it shortly after it went "f2p". But, my question is....what type of combat you you wish (realistically) LOTRO to be update to? Let's party like it is 1863! |
Originally posted by Gruug Someting dynamic, with impacts where you feel like you are hitting someting. Take L2, AoC, Tera for example. A DPS melee class feels strong and furious. Lotro has no melee DPS. The champion is a boring snorefest. Look at L2, that game was a grind with no quests. But the combat was so fun it alone kept me playing for nights. Lotro combat is painfully boring. |
I agree with the boring combat. It is always the same. I proc a bleed, they proc a bleed. Repeat on the next mob. I will go back to LotRO when they make the traits more accessible. Every time I think about going back, I remind myself that eventually, I will have to kill 450 wargs in one zone to get +1 in a trait. I know I don't have to but if I want to get the most out of my character, it is expected. I realize that they wanted to do something different from the usual skill trees but how could they think that killing heaps of animals/goblins/orcs/spiders was a good idea?? Ugh. Otherwise it is great. I love the setting and the classes are fun. |

I think these have been an issue from the beginning, unlikely they'll change now. |
True. Those scrolls in the store help though. I used my VIP points for those and the crafting accelerating ones. |
they must remake the whole game! They have one of the best rpg titles, with tons of lore,places,characters! You can't have that important title and make such a bad game... Imagine a game with that huge lore, with factions(able to create and play even as orcs,goblins, trolls etc.), dungeons, wars and sieges! Thats the LoTRo i wish... |
I also have to agree. Everytime I go back within days I'm bored to death. The setting is wonderful and the world is amazing, but the combat is meh... at best. |
Originally posted by PsyMike3d So far this has been my biggest gripe. That and the whole text questing thing which just seems so passe now. Currently Playing: Star Wars The Old Republic |
The solo orientation of the game, the combat, and the rampant instancing is what initially turned me off to this game. I'd say what the game sorely needs on a realistic level, is an option to subscribe and unlock all the content the game has to offer (not currently where you become VIP but still don't have access to all you used to). And combat that actually feels kinetic. I don't want a floating word to tell me I blocked, I wanna see it. Now, for unrealistic, what I want is this game to roll everything back to the alpha code, when it was still called Middle Earth Online, had no instancing, and focused on sandbox community driven gameplay. I'm tired of zones being layed out in a linear progression. I'm tired of the invisible walls. I'm tired of how anti social all the game mechanics are (with the exception of a few, like instruments). I'm tired of the dungeons I can't enter without quests. I'm tired of the zones that just insta kill you, punishing you for exploring, if you haven't done the right quests. I'm tired of the lack of death penalty. I'm tired of no one just grouping for fun, but instead they only group for the rare group step and disband immediately after. I'm tired of the quest based leveling, which reduces almost all quests down to an unbearably repetative and uncreative level. I'm tired of remembering all the features that were cut from Middle Earth Online to essentially create a WoW clone as a quick cash in. The most prolific IP in all RPG history, and it produced such a ...forgettable game. So, now that I've gotten all my unrealistic wishes out of the way, can you tell I cut my teeth on the golden age MMOs? :D Though I disagree with the above. I'm not sure it'd make much sense to let people play as orcs. Orcs were supposed to be mindless slaves. I think the Monster Play system was a great compromise, just not taken far enough. Having big sieges is a must for this IP! |
actually the #1 thing this game needs is paying customers. They need more income to make spending money conceivable. At this point it's a dwindling cash source for the company. It would take a big influx of either consumer investment(spending) or private investment in further development. I don't see the second happening. Great game regardless. |
Never played this game but I heard the quests were terrible. Is this true? |
Originally posted by raven29 The lore behind the quests are generally better than your average WoW clone, simply because it's based on Tolkien writing and feels less artificial. But since questing is the only way to level up that means theres hundreds of quests, and almost all of them are pointless time wasters. So yes, they're pretty bad. Even the odd story significant quests are pretty bad, because they directly contradict the lore the game is based on. I'm surprised more companies haven't realized it yet, but when you make your entire game based around quests, the quests are almost always pretty terrible, no matter how much manpower you sink into dressing them up. And LotRo is losing money, even now, because there's just not enough to make it stand out. It's the same reason all WoW clones since 2004 have failed. These games just do not have good game design, nor do they have the marketing budget that Blizzard has to make up for their lack of good game design, the way WoW does. Edit: It also probably doesn't help that their FTP system is almost crippling and a big ripoff to the customer. |

Originally posted by huskie77 Wait! You mean all those people (and Turbine themselves) saying that LOTRO new "freemium" pay model is such a great success are lying? No one is paying for the game because it is suppose to be "free". Why would any expect them to recieve an "income"? Let's party like it is 1863! |

Early February, so how did I do in January?
- Write a handwritten letter per week #52hellos – not keeping up, but getting by…
- Read more books. As many as I can manage. (Recommendations welcome) – Doing really well with this one! You can watch my progress on Goodreads
- Meditate 3 times per week for 10 minutes (Smiling mind app) – Fail! No reason but the reading is my meditation I think
- Be a better partner – stop being mean, be more patient and kind – Getting a bit better, but not nearly enough
- Little Things: Wear my fitbit and hit my daily 10k steps and drink at least 1.8 litres per day (3 drink bottles worth) – Yes! Nailing this one.
- Breathe – Trying!
- Commit to my training 3 times per week, rain, hail or shine. – Very hard. Went back to an outdoor fitness group for 2 sessions and could barely walk for over a week after cause my dodgy knees hurt so much. Back to the gym instead
- Get my diet back under control – Back on the Michelle Bridges 12wbt program. So far, so good! 1.5kgs down
- Lose this weight. It's not good for me or my family if I can't run after my girls. – Doing it!
- Find a new job, full time in state or local government or other public sector type place (this starts in July when I finish maternity leave) – July, but I have started my seek job emails again and updated my LinkedIn
- Spend a couple of hours each week getting organised: meals, groceries, activities, chores – Doing it
- Be a better Mama – stop being mean, be more patient and kind – Trying. Turns out I have a bit of an anxiety problem, Traditional Chinese Medicine and a good psychologist are helping me through
- See my good friends more regularly, make a better effort to stay in touch – Having my first dinner party in YEARS soon and I couldn't be more thrilled
- Spend less money – Fail. Not working = spending more money on cute baby things. Must stop.
Ok, so, 7 out of 14! I'm pretty happy with that!

Full text not available from this repository.
We demonstrate, using First-principles calculations, that the exceptional behavior of amorphous transparent conducting oxides formed from In, Zn, Ga, and Al cations arises from the preservation of local crystal order in the cation Centered polyhedra, which is maintained due to the strong charge transfer to oxygen. While tails of localized states may be created above the valence band, the highly delocalized conduction band remains unperturbed, offering effective n-type conduction despite the existence or long-range structural disorder. This is in direct contrast to the paradigm set by amorphous covalent semiconductors.

Keywords: HIV, India, adherence, antiretroviral treatment, randomised controlled trial
As a scale-up of HIV treatment is planned in India, adherence is a key issue. High adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) for HIV is a key determinant of viral suppression and is associated with a lower rate of disease progression. Given the potential for rapid development of drug-resistant viral strains, poor adherence has serious consequences for public health.
HIVIND is conducting a randomised control trial of two approaches to influencing ART adherence in 600 ART-naive HIV-infected Indian patients eligible for ART in two high-prevalence Indian provinces. The conventional existing approach (as in the national guidelines) will be compared with an intervention in which the patient is provided adherence support using a mobile telephone interface. Besides assessing the effect of intervention on adherence, the project will provide estimates of Indian patients failing first-line ART. It will present factors which promote and obstruct adherence and provide estimates of incidence and manifestations of opportunistic infections, immune reconstitution syndrome and adverse drug events in both arms of the cohort.
The two ART delivery strategies include the mobile treatment support (MTS) design which will be evaluated against the existing conventional (CT) treatment to assess if failure, adherence and other outcomes are influenced. The CT arm will serve as the control arm.
While studies of interventions to improve adherence have been published, most have been underpowered or have not used a randomised controlled trial (RCT) design, except for a few studies conducted mainly in the US and Europe. More recent reviews have advocated the need for more rigour in the conduct of the intervention trials. No RCT has been so far conducted on an Asian population to assess the effect of adherence improving interventions among patients in this context. Besides no trials have been reported on the use of the mobile phone, ubiquitous, inexpensively and contextually appropriate means of supporting adherence in many low income settings. India particularly has experienced a massive growth in mobile phone use, the country has 471 million mobile phone connections, with one of the lowest rates of telephony in the world.
New, simpler and inexpensive ELISA-based techniques (i.e. based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) to assess viral load and resistance will be evaluated in these contexts.

Navy deflects allegations of irregularities
Sukumpol 'not involved' in changes to contract

The Royal Thai Navy yesterday countered the opposition's allegation of irregularities surrounding the navy's scheme to modernise combat systems on two frigates.
ADM Thaweewut Pongpipat, a special adviser to the navy who serves as chairman of the committee implementing the scheme, said Defence Minister Sukumpol Suwanatat had nothing to do with the changes made to the procurement of the combat systems.
ACM Sukumpol had inquired with the navy about the changes, which were solely the navy's decision, said ADM Thaweewut.

Gold Prices Poised for 11th Year of Gains in 2012
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Gold prices took a beating in late 2011, but many experts think the path in 2012 is still paved with higher prices.
Gold had a wild 2011, starting the year at $1,412 an ounce, hitting a low right out of the gate of $1,314 and then rallying to an intra-day high of $1,923 an ounce.
The past few months have not been kind for gold. The precious metal tanked 13% in September and 8% in just three days last week as a strong dollar hammered prices. Gold's safe haven status looked to be a thing of the past as negative headlines out of Europe triggered a rush into the dollar instead of gold as liquidity dried up.
But gold's recent massacre is not scaring most experts.
"What I am looking for is a gold price of $1,800 an ounce in 2012," says Jeffrey Wright, senior research analyst at Global Hunter Securities. Wright says there could be spikes to $1,900 or $2,000, especially if gridlock in Congress brings up another budget battle and highlights the U.S.' own fiscal problems. "Once we get back into those discussions, there will be further pressure on the U.S. dollar and a refocusing on gold as a safe haven asset." Leo Larkin, metals and mining analyst at S&P Capital IQ, thinks that $1,900 gold might not be that much of a stretch. "Gold has been going up without interruption for 10 years" and a correction is totally normal, Larkin says. Gold has risen on average 17% annually over the past 10 years, and while Larkin doesn't expect such a juicy return in 2012, he does expect the up-trend to continue.

From beans and rice to grains and legumes to eggs and breadcrumbs to cheese and yogurt, many are the variables determining the fate of a homemade veggie burger. It's dizzying, as maddening as trying to unlock the secret to the chewiest granola bar.
All summer, I've been trying to make a good one, and I've finally found a formula I love, the inspiration coming from a favorite fritter: falafel. If you've made falafel, you're familiar with the method: soak dried chickpeas (or favas) overnight, drain them, whizz them with onions, herbs and seasonings, deep fry.
Without any binders, falafel manages to hold its shape, crispy on the edges, light and airy in the interior.

Carsland taught them a valuable lesson which was if you are going to revitalize a section of a park, you go all out, instead of piecemeal-wise, and you go for place-making on the scale of land, versus retro-fitting attractions into an already unpopular land (such as Monsters Inc. in Hollywood land).
I've heard a number of ideas for Tomorrowland from folks close to the process, kinda sad that Tony Baxter won't be in on it. Some blue sky concepts include:
1. Putting a Coruscant space port restaurant on top of the old Rocket Jets tower. Kinda unused real estate, but they'd need to fix up the sightlines on nearby roofs, but it would be a reservation sort of deal where you take the elevator up to a Star Wars/Coruscant themed eatery. If they ain't gonna move the rocket jets back, them I'm ok with this I guess. In keeping with this space port theme, the old People Mover deck would have droids and show elements for a ride utilizing the People Mover track which would load/unload where Innoventions is.
2. Coruscant speeders, basically a 6 guests car with built up plastic walls and lap bars so you can't reach out and touch anything no matter how hard to you try. The People Mover track would not need "stairs every 25 ft" because there wouldn't be dozens of guests on a section of track (like how the old People Mover could really load up guests), but in and emergency there wouldn't be that many people stuck at one time in hard to reach places. There would be a dark-ride ending segment to the ride based on the Star Wars universe.
3. Starcade and the Star port have the people mover track behind plywood, if they do the Coruscant speeders, you'd get to see the ride vehicle move by, and possibly a large Star Wars themed gift shop.
4. Tomorrowland Terrace. A bridge would be built for CM access to the restaurant on the old Rocket Jets tower, and the building would be gutted and rebuilt in a sort of Jedi Academy theme with counter service. I guess to expand upon the Jedi Training Academy show/theme.
This is what I don't get....people want to see the character because they like him....yet he can never be in Disneyland or DCA because...he doesn't fit theme...so unless they make Video Game land he can never be in the parks again?
So much for the happiest place on earth...let's just call it Theme Land where Pirates and Ghost fit New Orleans...but Video Games are not part of Tomorrow
I understand your argument, but it might have been a poor choice to use Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion not fitting into New Orleans Square as your example. New Orleans has a long history of ghost folklore, not to mention the architectural stylings of the Mansion itself fit the southern plantation-style homes of the period it's portraying. As for PotC, one could argue that although the "Caribbean" might not be located in Louisiana, Jean Lafitte (who's name should ring a bell if you're familiar with the ride) was a pretty famous French pirate in the 19th century. He smuggled goods out of a port in New Orleans, and eventually was a spy in the Mexican War of Independence. So really, PotC fits the theme there just fine as well! Also fun fact, he was accused of forging letters from Davy Crockett, which sort of ties into the whole Rivers of America theme as well but that's really stretching it.
Anyway, last time I rode Space Mountain which was about a week or so ago, I noticed a row of old arcade games (presumably from the old Wreck It Ralph meet and greet) along the top floor of the Starcade, and they were all on. Downstairs you can see the progress, or lack thereof of them removing the stuff from the meet and greet. I wonder why all the games are sitting on top though? And running at that..
I do not understand why Disney does not just open a Tron-themed arcade after the huge success of Flynn*s during ElecTRONica.
It seems a win/win situation for both theme, money intake, interactive elements, and fan appeal. Not to mention how happy Tron fans would be...and classic gamers in general.
Flynn*s was great....it would be nice to see that return in a more permanent form.

Be Cool Stay in School!
Next year I'm trying for a summer internship at Stark Industries.
I would imagine that they aren't going to touch anything in TL until they have a concrete plan for Innovations. Based off of what I read (I have no hard evidence other than the Internet and my own take on the situation), Disneyland has seen the success that Cars Land has had (with a complete construction and design all at once) and the quasi failure of New Fantasyland at WDW (and their step-by-step approach) that I would believe that they would do a complete overhaul of TL instead of fixing anything by piece. Again, just my take.
I just think their are double standards with Disney Fans...while Pirates and HM are great attractions they are just as much fiction as Wreck it Ralph and in Tomorrowland a ride/show could fit since one day we will be able to "enter" video games so I don't see how that can not fit theme...but Ghosts and Pirates can represent New Orleans
Noted, of course, but as you wrote... The major [with major being only in relativity] transformation of DL. Fantasy Faire and Magic Map are not, in my option, a major rehab of the park. I would, potentially, compare it more to opening The Little Mermaid at DCA but what will (hopefully) be done in TL would be compared to Cars Land opening.
I see where you are coming from. The only other argument I'd raise with you is the fact that both Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion are two original attractions - as in not based off of a franchise of any sort and they fit theme perfectly. Why can't we have something original show up in Tomorrowland? I'd rather not see a Wreck It Ralph attraction (who am I kidding thinking something not movie based will take up real estate in Tomorrowland).
Once Autotopia is gone hopefully we can get a new ride based off more "science fact" and a fun movie based ride like Tron...Ralph or Ironman
As much as I get how an attraction being build from ground up can be some of our best rides...I have to say rides like Splash, Racers and Tot...disagree that movies based rides if done right can be amazing and classic's too
"You can cut me off from the civilized world. You can incarcerate me with two moronic cellmates. You can torture me with your thrice daily swill, but you cannot break the spirit of a Winchester. My voice shall be heard from this wilderness and I shall be delivered from this fetid and festering sewer."

These rims are like brand new. They have maybe 5,000 - 6,000 miles on them. The rims are in perfect condition. one of them has a small mark that is barley noticable at all. I took a close up pic of it so you can see. I've had them posted on this site before and the one pic look like the rim was bent. It's NOT bent. The reflection on the rim made it look that way. I posted that pic below along with other pics of the barley noticable mark. Other than that, all the rims are perfect. the tires are Toyo proxes FZ4 size 235/35 ZR 19. They also come with ACS spacers as well. I paid $4,000 for these babies. I was hoping to get $3,000, but if there is anybody local i'm willing to take $2,700 obo. I'm located in Edison New Jersey. I just got my eyes lazered with lasik that cost me $5500, (highly recommend), and now i'm moving to Cali, so i neeeeeeeeed money!!! here are the pics..

Submit your application now: onearmenia.wufoo.com/forms/shift-initiative
The SHIFT initiative is your chance to seize opportunities for innovation in Armenia. It's based on the global ONEArmenia community's conviction that Armenia's potential for educational, humanitarian, environmental and cultural dynamism is limitless--it's about time you took it into your own hands.
In spring 2013, we are calling for anyone in the world over the age of 16 to pitch a project under $10,000 that transforms an element of Armenian culture--be it ancient or modern--into a fresh, 21st century creation. There are no rules as to process or form; we just want you to shift Armenia's culture out of its traditional and historic space and make it the basis for an active, modern-day aesthetic. The winning project will be chosen by the online community in a single round of open voting.
Once selected, the SHIFT project of the season will immediately enter its development phase, nurtured by our creative staff. Video, photo and written material will be put out by our team to spread the word about the project and report its progress to the world.
So what's the catch? All projects (and the labor associated with them) must be implemented in Armenia, with proposals indicating a thorough plan for execution and awareness of ONEArmenia's commitment to transparency. Oh, and none of the award money can go toward the applicant's salary.
That's it. What are you waiting for? Submit before May 25, 2013!
ONEArmenia is a non-profit platform that boosts environmental, humanitarian and cultural projects in Armenia. We use crowd-funding and transparent reporting to connect donors with projects that build positive momentum.

County implementing 'Code Red' emergency alert system
Henrico County is implementing a new multi-faceted alert system that will warn residents of emergencies faster than its current system while saving the county about $50,000 a year.
The "Code Red" system, operated by a private company, will be able to send warning messages by phone, text and e-mail countywide or to specific groups of residents in certain geographic areas as warranted, Fire Chief Anthony McDowell told the Board of Supervisors during a work session Nov. 27. The system will cost Henrico about $53,000 annually – about half of the $102,000 the county had been paying to maintain its existing system each year. Henrico officials have been operating the current system internally since 2007, using county data servers, phone lines and employee time to send phone, text and e-mail alerts as weather and public safety events necessitated, McDowell said. But the system was becoming costly and inefficient. It had just about outgrown its four servers, which would have necessitated the purchase of new servers at a cost of about $30,000, he said. And reverse 911 calls could take hours to send out to all 132,000 land lines in the county because only 23 lines were available for use (down from 46 originally). By contracting with Emergency Communications Network, LLC, those problems will be eliminated, McDowell said. The company will host all information on its servers in Florida, with three backup systems in place in other states. Phone calls and text and e-mail alerts will be sent out immediately through dedicated channels, ensuring that the county's messages won't have to wait in a queue behind those from other participating jurisdictions. The Code Red system is able to distribute 50,000 30-second phone messages each hour, McDowell said, meaning that it could contact every Henrico landline in about two and-a-half hours. Phone messages will only be sent in cases of actual emergencies – such as the potential of life-threatening weather events or when a dangerous criminal is believed to be in the area, County Manager Virgil Hazelett told the board. Text and e-mail alerts – which citizens must register to receive – may cover a broader range of events, including non-emergency information about traffic, for example. Anyone may opt into the system by registering a phone number or e-mail address at http://www.henricoalert.org. Henrico officials are hopeful that the Code Red system will be able to identify emergency phone calls as coming from "Henrico Emergency" so that recipients are more likely to answer. But even if they don't answer, the system will leave its entire message on voice mail, or recipients can dial the number back to hear the message, McDowell said. The Code Red system uses a database of phone numbers filtered through Verizon's list of all landlines in the county, so that it will know to call only one number at a business or residence, for example. The system does not include phone numbers established through online providers such as Vonage, but citizens also will be able to opt their phone numbers into the system if they choose. Code Red also offers a smartphone app for a one-time fee of $5.99 that will provide emergency alerts from any of its participating jurisdictions nationwide, so that a person who travels to another state, for example, could be alerted to emergencies there. Twenty-five other Virginia localities already use the Code Red system, McDowell said. In Henrico, it will be administered through the Division of Fire and Office of Emergency Management, though other county officials may have the ability to distribute messages. |
RAMPS receives $8k grant

Travinia brings contemporary elegance to Willow Lawn
It was another win for Willow Lawn when Travinia Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar opened there six months ago, nestled in the heart of the re-made shopping center. The contemporary American Italian restaurant boasts 13 locations up and down the East Coast, with the Henrico location opening in August.
In the same week, I hit up Travinia twice, once for lunch and once for a late dinner. At lunchtime on a weekday, I was overwhelmed by the smell of garlic and by the number of working professionals in nice suits on their lunch breaks. When we first walked in, I was concerned our meal would be a little too pricey based on the décor – it's a really nice place. Luckily, the menu has a variety of options for every budget. > Read more.
Soak up the fun
'SpongeBob' movie energizes with wit, laughter
There's a ton of sugar in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Literal sugar, as SpongeBob Squarepants (Tom Kenny) and Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke) inhale their own weight in cotton candy and eat ice cream, one scoop per mouthful.
At one point we burrow into the brain of our boxy yellow hero and discover the inner workings of his brain: googly-eyed cakes and candies that giggle and sing. All of which is extremely appropriate for a film like Sponge Out of Water. Because not only is the movie sweet (the "awwww" kind of sweet), but it's the equivalent of a 30-candy bar sugar rush, zipping between ideas like a sponge on rocket skates.
The story under all this is really not that complicated. SpongeBob flips burgers at the Krusty Krab. > Read more.

Best ResponseYou've already chosen the best response.1It should be:\[\frac{ 1 }{ \csc \theta - \cot \theta }=\frac{ 1+\cos \theta }{ \sin \theta }\]Let's begin at the left hand side:\[\frac{ 1 }{ \csc \theta - \cot \theta }=\frac{ 1 }{ \frac{ 1 }{ \sin \theta }-\frac{ \cos \theta }{ \sin \theta } }=\frac{ 1 }{ \frac{ 1-\cos \theta }{ \sin \theta } }=\frac{ \sin \theta }{ 1- \cos \theta }\]This looks much better, although it is not quite the right hand side yet... Hint: multiply numerator and denominator of the last fraction with (1+cosθ)/(1+cosθ):\[\frac{ \sin θ }{ 1-\cos θ } \cdot \frac{ 1+\cos θ }{ 1+\cos θ }= ...\]After just a few small steps, you'll have got to the right hand side of the identity!

Big hit with our guests!
3/29/2014 Hannah MAlmost everyone participated, from my 90something year old great aunt to my 3year old nephew. Pictures are printed on quality paper.
So much fun!
4/14/2012 Aimee SOne thing I wanted from the beginning when planning the wedding was a photo booth. We wanted one that was an actual booth and that fit the theme of our wedding. Bambooth was perfect. They had attendants there helping with the photos and even stayed a few minutes late to let everyone who was still in line use the booth. At the end of the night we received a usb drive with all the photos on it so we had a copy of all the photos. I also liked how the pictures were displayed outside of the booth so others could see them while they were waiting in line.
saw at a friends wedding
12/18/2010 Jessica WMy friends had bambooth at their reception and it was a lot of fun! They bought a few 'props' to set out on a table near the booth and it only added to the fun. most props were intended for the younger guests (animal noses, fake moutaches, silly hats, and temporary tattoos) but all the adults lovd them too. They mad for some great goofy print outs that were all free and all the photos were posted online after the ceremony. All of us had bambooth shots as our facebook photo for months. It's a great alternative or addition to a reception photographer. They seem like they can be a bit pricey depending on the package though.
Hours of fun!
9/05/2010 Jeanine YThe Bambooth was a wonderful company to work with. The results were AMAZING!!!! Our guests loved the photobooth and the resulting pictures. The photos were put on a private online gallery where our guests could download and print pictures at home. The staff at Bambooth have degrees in Fine Art. They use their skill and education to create a wonderful photo experience. They were able to PERFECTLY match our photo label with our wedding invitation! Bambooth is a wonderful addition to any wedding!
Photobooth love!
9/05/2010 Amanda ZI'm personally a big fan of photobooths, so the one frivolous item I needed to have for our wedding was a photobooth! We went to several wedding expos and decided that based on the packages and pricing, Bambooth was the one! Correspondence was done via email and phone and the contract was sent in the mail promptly. A couple months before the wedding, Bambooth created a personalized sidebar that printed on the pictures. The saleslady convinced me to get the 6 hr package – and luckily we did because we had people in the booth pretty much the whole time…gotta love the unlimited picture taking! The attendant that came with the photobooth was professional and kept things going smoothly. At the end of the evening we received a flash drive with all the pictures that were taken throughout the evening! We received several compliments about having the photobooth, because it was entertaining and fun. Overall we had a great experience with Bambooth and would highly recommend them to anyone who is thinking of renting a photobooth for any event!

- Catalina: "It's too late! I don't love you no more! I love another, OK?"
- CJ: "What? Then what the fuck was this about?!"
- Catalina: "I cannot keep my passions holed up. They need a release. That was a good release, like hitting a man with a frying pan while he sleeps."
- —Catalina and Carl Johnson after she beats his car with a crowbar
Farewell, My Love... is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl Johnson by Varrios Los Aztecas leader Cesar Vialpando from The Panopticon in Red County, San Andreas.
Catalina arrives at the meet. She kisses her new lover, as Carl notices her. Catalina complains about what Carl is doing; racing instead of treating her well, after what she had done for him. Carl argues that it's Catalina's fault, saying it's 'just business'. However, Catalina actually meant that she had feelings for him. Carl contradicts that he raced for the both of them, trying to fix relations between the two. However, Catalina already has another lover, Claude. She then challenges Carl to a race, wanting to prove that Carl is jealous and a coward.
Carl and Catalina hop on their respective vehicles as the race starts. Carl speedily traverses to different areas of Red County until he reaches the finish line near the town of Montgomery first. As Catalina and Claude reach the finish line, she complains that Carl had an advantage. Anyhow, Carl asks what his reward is, thinking it would either be a pink slip or money. What she gives him, however, is a deed to a garage in San Fierro, infuriating Carl. They need Claude's vehicle, as they will go off to Liberty City, and after another light argument, Catalina and Claude eventually leave.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Win the race
- Though Cesar is the boss of the mission, he is never seen or heard at all in the mission, however, as he organizes some races in the game and he is the cousin of Catalina, he may probably be the one who really organized this race, though he never talks about this to Carl.
- No matter what vehicle Carl brings to the mission, he will race in a ZR-350 modded with off-road tires, suiting the terrain of the track. Unfortunately the vehicle has very poor handling, and a tendency to spin out and flip over at the slightest provocation. This also means that whatever vehicle Carl brings is lost.
- Drive slowly so as not to lose control. Stick close to the leader (Claude and Catalina) after the first few bumps on the road (Do not go offroad). Take over the lead once you have the chance. Once hitting the second big turn that will lead to the beach area, go off and go down the side path that contains a bribe star. This will shave a huge portion of the track and put the player in the lead. For the rest, as long as the player doesn't go too fast and don't crash often, it should be easy to win the race.
- The race path is essentially the same as in the mission Wu Zi Mu, only reversed.
- The post-mission phone call is a reference to the movie Pulp Fiction.
- The race path is also used in the race Badlands B.
- For those unable to complete the racing portion of the mission while being chased, it's possible to set up an ambush for the three other cars using satchel charges, destroying the vehicles and allowing you to finish the race at a snail's pace, if desired.
- The song at the end of the mission is called Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus. It can also be heard on Radio X.
- The name of this mission may be a reference to the 1975 film Farewell, My Lovely.
- CJ is not required to show up at this mission with a car, but he will always be seen with a car in the cutscene (so that Catalina can beat it with a crowbar).

Henk Savelberg has the distinction of having won a Michelin star in four different restaurants across the Netherlands. He has been running his eponymous restaurant in Voorburg since 1999.
I come from a mining family from the Dutch province of Limburg. It was after completing my military service in the navy that I discovered the restaurant business, in France and the Netherlands. Today I live in The Hague, just a few kilometres from my restaurant. This allows me to enjoy the city, the North Sea and the countryside too. This closeness to nature is something that nearly all people in the Netherlands enjoy in their everyday lives, making the most of every moment to walk or cycle along the canals, the polders or the backstreets of the towns, which even today call to mind the Golden Age.

I have been friends with Martin Kruithof for more than twenty years. Along with his wife Marja, this Grand Chef welcomes you like a member of the family. His dishes are at once ingenious and elegant, and the wine cellar is certainly one of the country's best. On fine days you can eat on the terrace, overlooking magnificent landscaped gardens, lulled by birdsong and the sound of the canals.
