5 Most Important Issues at G20 Meeting
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- It seems like yesterday that the most recent G20 was gathering in Toronto to discuss a more coordinated response by governments and central banks to deal with potential crises. That was five months ago. We're about to start a new G20 meeting, this time in Seoul, today.
It's useful to remember past expectations for these meetings and their results. G20 meetings tend to be heavy on hype going in, with plenty of chances for photo-ops and analysis by talking heads.
However, the crafting of the end-of-summit "declaration" starts a few hours after the leaders first sit down to talk. The final details are hammered out by underling administrators showing complete unanimity by all parties.
Recall that it was expected that the Toronto summit would center on countries pressuring China to let the yuan float upwards. The night before the event started, the Chinese government announced it would be open to such flexibility. The country offered no details on how or when it would make such adjustments (although it has followed through modestly since then). The announcement was sufficient to deflect attention from the issue for the meeting.
So, despite the recent rhetoric about the risk of future "currency wars" among countries trying to increase competitiveness, or the supposed anger by foreign finance ministers over the Federal Reserve's decision last week to proceed with a new program of quantitative easing, or calls for China to -- again -- raise the value of the yuan against the dollar, I expect little discussion of these issues in Seoul or in the final statement. So much of the public talking points we hear -- whether it's from Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, President Barack Obama or the Chinese government -- relating to these issues is mere "political theater" meant to score points with the public back home that government officials are doing something in their people's best interest. So, rather than paying attention to these issues, it will be more interesting to monitor some of those that are less popular, but potentially significant, that don't attract attention from the folks back home and, therefore, can truly be issues where coordinated agreement can occur. I think very highly of Canadian central banker Mark Carney. A Goldman Sachs (GS - Get Report) alum, he is a straight-talker and eminently reasonable, in my view. While young and early in his tenure at the bank, he is already highly regarded by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and other central-bank peers.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Studies have shown that it can provide a considerable skin brightening effect while remaining non-toxic to melanin forming cells. Arbutin is also chosen as an active ingredient due to its efficacy for tyrosinase activity inhibition and melanin formation inhibition.
The powerful combination of antioxidant vitamin E from argan oil and tocopheryl acetate will enhance the natural and ease of skin brightening effect. Both of them working together to give anti-ageing and anti-microbial, moisturizing dry skin and scavenge free radicals. Both of them are also excellent anti-inflammatory compound that act as skin-conditioning agent to reduce skin redness and puffiness.
Tocopheryl acetate also promotes healing process of the scars, protecting skin barrier's lipid balance and reducing trans-epidermal water loss. Organic Aloe Vera added in Arbutin Natural Lightening Cream also attributed as moisturizing and soothing agent, anti-microbial and vitamin C and E booster which improved the mechanism of skin lightening treatment.
It is recommended to use Arbutin Natural Lightening Cream at night time after applying Pure Oil Series 01 to get the best result when our body is in resting state and our skin cells are in repairing mode. This light, easily absorbed cream is non-oily and suitable for all skin types. It has also been tested to be free from hydroquinone from external independent lab.

You get emails from all kinds of businesses. They all seem to have an unsubscribe link. But should you actually click on that link?
The answer depends on who you get it from. If it is from a legit organization you do business with, it's OK. But if it's from an unfamiliar business, do *not* click on it.
If you click on an unsubscribe link in an email from an unfamiliar business, suddenly your inbox blows up with more email from the spammers. It's as if you're telling the crooks, "Hey, I'm a real person and you have a legit email address!"
So before you say, "Unsubscribe me!," consider this instead: David Lazarus of The Los Angeles Times says the better option may be reporting it as spam. Over time, that sender will be blocked by your email provider.
His advice also speaks to why legit organizations make it so easy for you to unsubscribe with their prominent unsubscribe links. They don't want you to put them in a penalty box by marking them as spam when you should in fact be unsubscribing.
I remember years ago when AOL was a big email service provider and my free newsletters were treated as spam. We went through cartwheels trying to get people unblocked. AOL was using a meat clever instead of a scalpel to decide what was real mail and what was spam. So I've been on the other side of this with people who wanted my newsletter *not* being able to receive it.

The Mary Sues and the Very Don'tsI want to take a moment to talk about Mary Sues. Let's all put on our literary hats for a moment.There's obviously a problem with Mary Sues. Making a kawaii desu twelve year old sexual deviant is a fast way to make haters. But that's not saying you have to make your character dull. I've seen about as much Sue-frustration around as the Sues themselves.But making a young, attractive character does not a Sue make. Yes, as John Green would insist, a character should not be someone you want to be or know or date. That should not make up that character's main persona. But making a character ugly and middle-aged doesn't mean you're making a good character.Look at Jay Gatsby for a moment. He's young, he's rich, he's charming. And he's not a Sue. These very characteristics later become his flaws. He's nothing but a façade. He's fake. Making a character pretty doesn't mean he's (or she's) a Sue.Looking at the same book, let's examine Nick. For those of you lucky bastards that haven't re
2p!Angel!AmericaxReaderxAmerica: Black VowWarning: This story contains sensitive religious topics---The wingless fallen angelSurrendered himself to the contract of evilIn the past they even loved each otherHe ended it by his own hand***The Fallen AngelI was abandoned from the Heavens. My wing was wounded and I was lost in the realm of humans. I wandered into a town at dusk. That was when I met her... the girl with the most beautiful eyes. Once my red eyes locked onto her (e/c) ones, I immediately fell in love with her. However, I knew that we could never be together because she was a human and I am an angel. It was as if I had opened Pandora's box.She smiled at me, but then she saw my wings and gasped."You're an angel!" I nodded sadly. She extended her hand towards me and smiled. She brushed my dark hair out of my eyes."I'm _____________, who are you?""A-Alfred." I responded shyly.That was how it all began. She nursed my wing and cared for me for a few weeks. During that time, I fell more and more in love
HetaliHero's Tips to Writing Reader InsertsI've noticed people have been writing these lately. I thought I'd throw my two bits into the kindling flame of learning how to write reader inserts. Now, I am somewhat new to writing inserts, but I'm not when it comes to fanfictions. Keep in mind, most of my tips tend to come from my own opinions and in no way am I trying to criticize specific writers in any way shape or form. This tip is geared towards series, not oneshots. This might be long just to let you know. Plan Accordingly!-Don't just start writing. It's best to map out what the main idea of the story should be. However, you don't have to complete an entire outline before writing. My two main stories: An American Walked Into A Bar and Dear Pen-Pal both have outlines (Pen-Pal's is incomplete). The best part about outlines is that they can be just one sentence. For instance, here is the outline for AAWIAB starting with part five:-Visits apartment. Sleeps over.- 1 month passes. Main character is threatene
I Love Hetalia, but this is kindof rediculousWay too many Hetalia fans on DA. I typed in 'Ludwig' in the DA search thing, and everything that came up was Hetalia. Don't get me wrong, I love that webcomic/manga/show but still, it's not the only thing in the world. In order to see the acuall (too lazy to spell check) drumset, you have to add 'drums' and not even 150 devientations show up. Hetalia is not the only thing in the world peoples. If you type in 'Ludwig Hetalia' over 21,000 devintations show up. I love hetalia, but I do think that it IS a "bit" overrated. There are other things. Like Futurama (TV, Comic Book), the Big Bang Theory (TV), Soul Eater (TV, Manga), Garfield (comis strip), Star Trek (TV, Movie, Comic, Novel, too many to list) Doctor Who & it's spinn offs (TV, Comic books, Novels) just to name a few. Like I said, Hetalia is NOT the only thing in the world. I'm problobly going to get a lot of shit for this but I don't careEDIT: I've decided to go the rest of this week without drawing Hetalia.

So I picked up my Ruger SR40C this week after having my local smith install some XS 24/7 Bigdots on it. For those who may be unfamiliar with these sights, they are designed as purely a combat sight. They are meant to be quick to acquire, easily visible in all light conditions, and just generally awesome. So far they fit this bill quite well.
Initial impressions:
These sights are heavy. When I took them out of the package I was surprised at just how heavy they were. Substantial is a good descriptor. The rear has a very thick base, and the front blade is quite wide. The white ring is very crisp and clean with no blemished edges. The tritium had a nice bright glow and was easily seen in low light. In the dark, they provide a glowing green ball that nestles on top a glowing green line. In low light, the tritium glows brightly, giving you a nice contrasting sight to use.
After installation:
The sights look like they belong on my ruger. I highly recommend gunsmith installation. My smith said that they were a hair over-sized and required a little bit of fitting to install. Personally this is my preference as he was able to pressure fit them into the sight dove tails, negating the need for any locktite. On the gun the sights look great. They fit the look very well, and follow the easy point of aim of my ruger. One thing to keep in my mind, is that the front sight is quite a bit taller than a normal sight, and may not fit, or may interfere, with some holsters. I use a SHTF Gear and a Foxx Holsters little foxx and it works just fine in these, but these also have a sight channel molded into them so I have had no no issues.

Quorum International 6495-5-38 5 Light Coronado Nook Chandelier, Gilded Bronze
Be the first to write a review
Product Description
Available while supplies last.
This product by Quorum International is offered with etruscan glass. It is offered in a gilded bronze finish. Requires five 60-watt frosted incandescent bulbs.
The 16th century conquistador Francisco de Coronado explored what is now the American Southwest for mythical cities of gold. His expedition failed, but the Spaniards who followed brought with them old world architecture and new methods of agriculture, metalworking and crafts. Their influence on design endures today. In our Coronado Family you can read the history of Spain: the Moorish scrolling arms, the Renaissance wrought iron-look of the finish, the Baroque embellishment of the cast central columns with vines and floral relief.
- Colorful or uniquely patterned glass diffusers are typically hand made and, as such, will exhibit some variation in both color and pattern.
Such variations should be considered normal and indicative of hand crafting rather than machine production.

The birthplace of country and blues has become far more than the agrarian state it once was. Tennessee's major urban centers are important cities with significant economies. And Tennessee fully supports economic growth and development -- which may be why it doesn't impose too much regulation on business. Unlike many states, Tennessee gives counties and cities significant leeway to decide on their own regulations -- often making state licenses required only at the discretion of local jurisdictions.

Five highest-impact coordinator losses
January, 30, 2014
Travis Haney | ESPN Insider
Kirby Lee/Image of Sport/USA TODAY SportsFormer Stanford DC and new Vanderbilt head coach Derek Mason will be missed in Palo Alto.
We talk a lot about coaching hires, but the loss of coordinators can cause some big ripples in the sport. Even the reigning national champions are not exempt from major changes.
Here are five high-impact coordinator losses that could reshape the college football landscape this season and potentially for years to come.
1. Jeremy Pruitt
From: Florida State defensive coordinatorTo: Georgia defensive coordinator
I visited Tallahassee in August and again in October, and the feedback from the players about Pruitt was incredibly positive. I recall DB Terrence Brooks lighting up about his first-year coordinator when I asked him about Pruitt.

I can't believe I'm agreeing with Barney Frank, marijuana is everywhere, people in Maine grow more Pot than they do potatoes, it's in their back yards, their front yards, their closets, their cellars, their barns and their attics, it can be bought in every school yard in the country and the Morons running our government think their silly laws are going to prevent it, it should be regulated, legalized and sold in Supermarkets right alongside the French Wine and Miller Lite Beer. AMERICA LOVES POT AND THOSE DOPES IN WASHINGTON WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO STOP THE PEOPLE FROM GETTING THEIR DRUGS. LEGALIZE IT ALL AND PUT THE SLIMEY SMELLY GREASY DRUG DEALER OUT OF BUSINESS, SEND THEM BACK TO "GRAPE PICKING" AND "CLEANING TOILETS" WHEN YOU READ ABOUT A MANIAC GOING HOME AND KILLING HIS WHOLE FAMILY AND HIS DOG HE'S USUALLY "A DRUNK" WHEN THE COPS HAVE TO CLEAN UP TEENAGE DEAD BODY'S AT AN ACCIDENT SCENE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT IT'S ALWAYS "BEER BOTTLES" THEY FIND ALL OVER THE ROAD NOT "ROACHES" Good luck Barney (you cute little bastard) :bricks:

So, how many think Kenny is alive and how many think Kenny isn't alive?
I personally think he won't be alive mainly because if you see the ending where Ben falls and gets impaled by that pole; Kenny goes down onto the streets and walkers show up. Fighting off the walkers, if you watch and listen closely you can see and hear Kenny getting bit on the wrist, around the same spot Lee was bitten at.
But hey, who knows? I'd like to see how many people think he's alive and how many think he's dead, so post what you guys think below!

[[caption-width-right:306:[[MemeticMutation And he did all that in a cave!\\
->''"The truth is... I am Film/IronMan."''
-->-- '''Tony Stark'''
'''Robert John Downey, Jr.''' (born April 4, 1965) is an American actor, film producer and musician. Downey made his screen debut at the age of 5 when he appeared in one of his father's films, ''Film/{{Pound}}'' (1970), and has worked consistently in film and television ever since.
During the [[TheEighties 1980s]], he was a cast member on the NBC sketch show ''SaturdayNightLive'' (his uncle, Jim Downey, was a cast member on the show in the 1979-1980 season and, next to Rob Smigel[[note]]the voice of Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog and the man behind the TV Funhouse cartoons that aired on the short-lived sketch series ''The DanaCarvey Show'', ''SaturdayNightLive'', and the short-lived SubvertedKidsShow, ''TV Funhouse''[[/note]] and LorneMichaels himself, is the longest-running writer this show has ever had. Downey has since left the show in 2013) and had roles in a series of coming-of-age films associated with the Creator/BratPack. He was cast to read one of the letters in the 1987 film ''Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam'' before his rise to fame. ''Film/LessThanZero'' is particularly notable, not only because it was the first time Downey's acting would be acknowledged by critics, but also because the role pushed Downey's already-existing drug habit one step further. After ''Zero'', Downey started landing roles in bigger films, such as ''Film/AirAmerica'' and ''Film/{{Soapdish}}''. These higher-profile roles eventually led to his being cast as Creator/CharlieChaplin in the 1992 {{biopic}} ''Chaplin'', for which he gained an AcademyAward nomination for Best Actor.
Between 1996 and 2001, Downey was frequently arrested on drug-related charges and went through several drug treatment programs, but had difficulty staying sober. After being released from the California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison in 2000, Downey joined the cast of the hit television series ''Series/AllyMcBeal'', playing the new LoveInterest of Calista Flockhart's title character. His performance was praised and he was nominated for an Emmy award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series and won a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor in a miniseries or TV film, but his character was written out when Downey was fired after two arrests in late 2000 and early 2001.
After one last stay in a court-ordered drug treatment program, Downey finally achieved lasting sobriety and his career began to take off again. He appeared in semi-independent films such as ''The Singing Detective'', ''Film/AScannerDarkly'' and ''Film/KissKissBangBang''. He also had supporting roles in the mainstream films ''Film/{{Gothika}}'' and ''Film/{{Zodiac}}''. In 2004, Downey released his debut studio album ''The Futurist'', although he was involved with music a little earlier; that's him walking around in the Music/EltonJohn video for "I Want Love."
In 2008, Downey became [[ComicBook/IronMan the title character]] in the ComicBook adaptation ''Film/IronMan''. Somehow, playing a SuperHero with undeniable talent and a substance abuse problem seemed to be natural for him. His other 2008 films include ''CharlieBartlett'' and ''Film/TropicThunder'', directed by Creator/BenStiller, in which he played Australian method actor Kirk Lazarus, who is overly engrossed in his role as an African-American soldier. He received his second Oscar nomination for the film, in the category of Best Supporting Actor, which he lost to Creator/HeathLedger (but not before being lauded by Creator/CubaGoodingJr as the only man crazy enough and good enough to play blackface).
He next played the lead character in Creator/GuyRitchie's adaptation of ''Film/SherlockHolmes'', which opened on Christmas 2009. It is a ''very'' different take on the character but surprisingly faithful to the original books, and it was a hit and a Golden Globe winning role for Downey.
In 2010, Downey appeared in ''Film/IronMan2'', another huge hit, and the comedy RoadMovie ''Film/DueDate'' along with Zach Galifianakis. He reprised the role of Sherlock Holmes in 2011's ''Film/SherlockHolmesAGameOfShadows''. In 2012, he appeared as Iron Man in the highly successful ''Film/TheAvengers'', and then again in 2013 for ''Film/IronMan3''.
[[MyFriendsAndZoidberg Oh, and he's now the voice for Mr. Peanut]].
* ActorAllusion: Since beating his drug problems for good, he tends to play characters who struggle with substance abuse, particularly alcoholics.
* AddictionDisplacement: With Kung Fu, although there's also a lot of caffeine involved, too.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Once caused filming to be stopped because he had to look at a passing cat.
* BadassBoast: Sparked an interest in doing a big blockbuster film after watching ''Film/TheMatrix'' with his (producer) wife Susan and stated, "I can do that." [[Film/IronMan The rest]] [[Film/TheAvengers is history]].
* BunnyEarsLawyer: He continued to get work throughout his addiction years because, as several directors noted, he was actually quite professional about showing up on time and knowing his part, which is more than could be said for some sober actors.
* BrutalHonesty: Laid down a gem about his addictions in court when he was sent to prison the last time.
-->''It's like I've got a shotgun in my mouth, my finger's on the trigger and I like the taste of gun metal.''
* CareerResurrection: Downey's turns in critically lauded films such as ''Film/KissKissBangBang'' and ''Film/AScannerDarkly'' returned him to the realm of respected actor, but his appearance in ''Film/IronMan1'' cemented him as an A-lister.
** Prior to this, he was practically unemployable as his drug problems made him very difficult to insure.
* TheCastShowoff: Downey writes music, sings and plays piano quite well. As a result, this leads to some delightful showoff moments, including:
** Downey performed his own compositions in the movies ''Friends and Lovers'' and ''Two Girls and a Guy.''
** The song played during the ending credits of ''Film/KissKissBangBang'' is a Downey original from his 2004 music album ''The Futurist''.
** Downey's acclaimed musical performances on ''AllyMcBeal'' include a version of Joni Mitchell's song "River" and a duet version of the song "Every Breath You Take" with Sting.
* CelebrityParadox: Nobody is sure if he is actually Robert Downey Jr. or if he is, in fact, Tony Stark. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-H8gdxSK34 Not even him]].
* CloudCuckoolander: "Sometimes I wish I was a llama."
* DeadpanSnarker: Brilliantly capable of delivering hilarious lines while remaining completely serious.
* HarpoDoesSomethingFunny: A noted ad-libber, Downey was vital in making the largely unscripted ''Film/IronMan'' as funny as it was. Tony Stark's "shawarma" line in ''Film/TheAvengers'' was also the result of a sequence of ad-libs. Also notable is that though Creator/JossWhedon is the one who came up with Tony's quip to Thor about "Shakespeare In The Park," Downey is the one who decided to start taunting Thor about "weareth(ing his mother's) drapes."
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Plays these characters frequently and has a dash of it in real life.
* KindheartedCatLover: A noted fan of cats, and takes just about every opportunity to talk about his cats.
* MetaCasting: Downey practically ''is'' Tony Stark, and really most of his later roles have been about talented men dealing with substance abuse problems.
* MustHaveCaffeine: Justified in that he's a recovering drug addict and it's the only drug he can take [[AddictionDisplacement that won't get him in trouble]].
* OneOfUs: Of the [[CaptainAmerica St]][[Film/IronMan ony]] [[PortmanteauCoupleName shippers]], in any case: After ''The Avengers'', he has repeatedly claimed that Steve and Tony got married (Steve ''might'' have worn a dress, Clint caught the bouquet and Natasha thinks they're adorable). Then again, it's probably easier to name the slash ships involving his characters he ''hasn't'' [[ShipTease teased]] in some way ("Mark Ruffalo and I are adopting a child. [[Film/TheAvengers Tony Banner]]"). And let's not even get started on the ''Film/SherlockHolmes'' press tours. Add to this, he entered an ''Film/IronMan3'' presentation at the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con by dancing through the fans, wearing an Iron Man gauntlet on his right hand.
** He has also been declared Captain of the Pepperony ship. He fought for Creator/GwynethPaltrow to have a role in ''Film/TheAvengers'', several quotes from him regarding ''Film/IronMan3'' are about Pepper and Tony's relationship, and when asked what he would have of Tony's if he could get it, he answered: "Pepper Potts."
** And now he and Creator/GwynethPaltrow call themselves "Pepperony." The fan reactions on tumblr ranged from "THIS IS THE GREATEST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED" to "WAIT HOW MUCH DO THEY KNOW?!"
** He knows about "Captain Dorito", even referring to Creator/ChrisEvans as "Dorito" at Comic-Con 2014.
** His official Facebook page is full of fan-made art, memes, Tumblr posts, etc. related to him or his work.
* PlatonicLifePartners: With Creator/GwynethPaltrow.
* PrettyBoy: In his early days. These days, he's a {{Hunk}}.
* PromotedFanboy: He's a fan of the ''IronMan'' series. Especially since Tony Stark also happens to share similar issues to his personal life.
* RomanceOnTheSet: Met his current wife, producer Susan Levin, while making ''Film/{{Gothika}}''.
* ScullyBox: He's just 5' 8'' (1,70m), so his superhero movies at times require him to wear high heels (as even [[Creator/GwynethPaltrow his love interest co-star]] [[http://media.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/liveonline/images/celebritology/08/gwyn_morph.jpg can tower over him]] - [[http://images.starpulse.com/pictures/2010/04/28/previews/Gwyneth%20Paltrow%20and%20Robert%20Downey%20Jr.-DGG-024893.jpg though when both have proper shoes...]]).
* SelfDeprecation: He's perfectly willing to make fun of himself.
* SoMyKidsCanWatch: Downey's teenage son is a fan of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', so he called the show's production staff and asked if he could be involved in making an episode. The result of that was Downey guest-starring on the episode in which Peter starts a pro-obese men advocacy group and Lois finds out that she has a long-lost brother who was put in a mental hospital [[spoiler:after seeing his mom giving a blowjob to Jackie Gleason, which triggered Patrick's murderous hatred for fat men]].
* ThrowItIn: '''Endlessly.''' Examples from ''Film/TheAvengers'':
** As JossWhedon noted, the "That man is playing Galaga!" line was ad-libbed, and worked so well that Whedon decided to dub in an image of Galaga on "that man's" console as the scene's punch line.
** Reportedly, Tony's "Let's just not come in tomorrow" speech was improvised, as was Tony taunting Thor with the line [[YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe "Doth mother know thou weareth her drapes?"]]
** [[spoiler:The shawarma gag was also his, so by proxy he threw in the entire second stinger.]]
* TrueCompanions: He stood by Creator/MelGibson during Gibson's fall from grace, telling people that he himself used to be a pariah in the industry because of his issues and that it was Gibson who made sure that he didn't end up alone on the street. He also added that if he could come back from that then people should give Gibson the same opportunity to redeem himself.
* TypeCasting: Oddly, Downey playing brilliant and dedicated yet deeply flawed heroes with a history of substance abuse ([[Film/IronMan alcohol]], [[Film/SherlockHolmes cocaine]]) is what revived his career.

WAVE A wave is a graphic representation of an electrical event. A wave always has two components (not always seen), an upstroke and a downstroke or visa versa. A wave usually begins and ends on the baseline. A wave is never described as elevated or depressed.
SEGMENT A segment is an electrically quiet area in the EKG cycle. There are three segments: TP, PR, ST. The PR and ST segments are always measured against the TP segment. They would be described as Isoelectric (on the baseline) elevated or depressed with respect to the TP. The unit of measurement is in millimeters
P - WAVE The P wave is the first wave of the normal cardiac cycle. It represents atrial depolarization. When it has originated from the SA node, it is usually 2 mms by 2 mms and is nicely rounded in contour. It is normally upright in leads I, II, III, V2-6.
PR SEGMENT This is the flat area of baseline following the P wave and ends at the start of ventricular depolarization.
PR INTERVAL This is the measurement of the beginning of the P wave to the beginning of the q wave or if
the q is absent, the beginning of the R. This measurement is useful in determining AV Heartblocks. Normal
adult values are 0.12 to 0.2 sec.
q WAVES Also called small q, septal q, or insignificant q. If present, is the first negative
wave of ventricular depolarization and always precedes the r or s waves if they are present. It represents
septal L to R depolarization. There can only be one q to each QRS complex. It is never normally greater
than 1/3 the total height of the QRS complex and/or greater than 0.03 seconds in duration. It is usually
seen best in leads I, aVL, II, V5-6.
Q WAVES Also called significant Qs or pathological Qs. They are the same as above except they
are greater than 1/3 the height of the QRS and/or exceed 0.03 seconds in duration. When observed in
multiple adjacent leads, they suggest necrotic tissue of a myocardial infarction (age unknown).
R WAVE An R wave, if present, is always positive and occurs after the q wave if a q was present.
In lead II the R wave represents the bulk of LV depolarization. In lead V1 it represents septal depolarization.
S WAVE An S wave, if present, follows the R wave, if an R was present, and is always a negative wave.
In lead II it represents late depolarization of part of the RV.
R' WAVE If the ventricular depolarization continues, any positive wave above the baseline would be called
an R' (R prime)
S' WAVE If the ventricular depolarization continues, any negative wave below the baseline would be
called an S' (S prime)
J POINT The J point is an essential landmark for measuring QRS duration. The J point is at the end of Ventricular depolarization and at times can be hard to find. Occasionally the only hint of the J point is a slurring of the pen. QRS waves are very vertical while the ST segment is usually very horizontal. Because the J point is the intersection of these waves, you will be looking for the change from vertical to more horizontal. Practice finding J points
QRS INTERVAL The QRS interval is the measure of time from the beginning of the Q wave to the J point. The
normal duration of this measurement is 0.06 - 0.11 seconds in the normal adult heart. This measurement is
useful in diagnosing BBB or primary ventricular activation.
ST SEGMENT This is the electrically quiet area after the J point and usually lasts 0.08 - 0.12 seconds.
It is normally on the baseline and when elevated above the baseline in a group of adjacent leads, can be used
to diagnose acute myocardial injury. The ST segment, as it relates to the isoelectric line, is measured at a
point 0.08 seconds past the J point.
T WAVE The T wave represents ventricular repolarization. The T wave is a nicely rounded wave that
follows the ST segment and in the normal heart, follows the direction of the main QRS deflection. The usual
T wave is never normally taller than half the height of the total QRS height. Terms used to describe abnormal
T waves would be: tall, flattened, pointed, pinched, notched, broad, inverted, deeply inverted, flat. It should
never be described as absent, elevated or depressed.
U WAVE The U wave is a medical curiosity. It is not clear what relationship it has with cardiac activity.
We do know that it becomes taller in hypokalemia and can flip in CAD. It usually follows the direction of the T
wave and is best seen in lead V3.
QT INTERVAL This interval is measured from the beginning of the QRS to the end of the T wave. At heart
rates of 65-90 the QT should not exceed half the R to R interval. This measurement is useful when dealing with calcium imbalance and TDP. How to Measure the QT and QTc.
TP SEGMENT This is the baseline between the T wave and the p wave. It is also known as the isoelectric
line. The baseline is drawn by using the terminal TP segment to terminal TP segment.

Amazing post, and I friggin LOVE your website design.. A few things.. I cannot wait for my next trip to MA.. I'm going to track you down (or, at least, your beer).. better yet, a brewery tour.. ;-) My partner and I are working towards doing a nano with a tasting room.. 5-year plan, so this is a great read. Oh.. re: website: get your Twitter, Facebook and G+ displayed on the header somewhere so we, your new visitors, can quickly access them... I just happened to stumble across the links for them in your blog. Keep up the great work!! As a born, bred and dyed-in-the-wool New Englander, I do grow weary of hearing about mini-, micro-, nano-brew explosion in the Pacific Northwest. No offense to them, but the Atlantic Northeast is pretty friggin cool too. Cheers!
Yah, I want to go this route too, but I live in Eugene Oregon and it is just saturated with breweries around here... I still plan to.give it a shot in the next few years, but it will be hard to make a name for myself, especially starting out. Great thread! This was some great insight
And on the eighth day he said "Make beer!"
Are your followers in this thread really comparing you to Rosa Parks, Brian? Seriously? That's right, Cape! Refuse to go to the back of the brewery bus! Stand up to the man! Screw Jim Koch, Adolphus Busch and Vinny! You're there, you brew beer! Lets everyone join hands and sing Kumbaya!
Hey Everybody!!! Hop in the minivan... Coach Carroll is buying ice cream after the game, because no matter what the scoreboard says, "You're a WINNER!!!"
I had to go away for a bit just to try to get my head around this. Couldn't quite do it. Brian S being mentioned in the same conversation as Rosa Parks! Even for this thread that brings ball washing to a new low.
Wow, I missed this thread. Congratulations!!!! Can I get in touch with you and take a few minutes of your time? I'm about to start the TTB paperwork for a nano too.
Just as a quick update... things seem to be going pretty well (knock on wood). We have been officially opened for about 3 months and have sold, by our standards, a lotta beer. At this point, all of our beer sales have basically been unsolicited. We approached two places (really just one and the other suggested it) about having release parties and the beer has flown out of the brewery from there. One release party location has put us in the permanant rotation while the other has given us two whole taps. All of the other beer we've sold (a couple special events, supplying the rotational and permanent taps, and now possible more accounts) has all been bars/people basically coming to us, which is pretty cool. Everyone we talk to brings up expansion and we're really trying to fight that urge. We're focused right now on slowly growing and managing the brewery as an actual business... steadily growing sales (although we're basically at capacity now), controlling expenses to ensure profitability on a monthly basis, trying to maintain what feels like a good reputation so far... so... so far so good. mendesm... if you want to swing through the brewery some time, I'll answer any questions I can. We constantly update our Facebook and Twitter pages on when we're brewing and it is pretty rare that we aren't brewing on a Saturday morning.

Work-related multiple-fatality incidents, 1995-99
November 24, 2004
Nearly three-fifths of work-related multiple-fatality incidents from 1995 to 1999 involved transportation.
Most of the transportation-related incidents leading to more than one fatal injury were head-on highway collisions or incidents involving air and water vessels.
Assaults and violent acts accounted for about one-fifth of multiple-fatality incidents. The category includes 173 multiple homicides claiming 535 workers' lives, plus 34 murder-suicides claiming 40 workers' lives in addition to the assailants who committed suicide.
Fires and explosions and exposure to harmful substances or environments each accounted for less than one-tenth of multiple-fatality incidents. Falls accounted for just two percent of multiple-fatality incidents.
These data are from the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI), part of the Injuries, Illnesses, and Fatalities program. To learn more, see "Work-related multiple-fatality incidents," by Dino Drudi and Mark Zak, in the October 2004 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.

Bottom line for Leinart's loot

On Jan. 14, 2005, Matt Leinart shocked many in the sporting world when he announced he would return for his senior season at the University of Southern California.
"I think college football and this whole atmosphere here and being with my fans and my teammates is ultimately more satisfying and will make me happier than any amount of money," Leinart said that day.

I'm a single mom with an extremely tight budget, so of course finding extra funds for vet bills was extra stress for me on top of my best mate being extremely poorly. The understanding and compassion shown by sonia and her team towards my situation was amazing i was'nt made to feel awkward in anyway,the care and kindness given to fizz was nothing but the best and the aftercare too i did'nt feel that was the end of it and could'nt go back for support or advice once fizz was put to sleep.I will never be able to thank you all enough the kindness show will stay with me always.

I explained that my mother was a registered customer, and had been for many years, spending hundreds, if not thousands of pounds during this time, and could we use her account, but they still insisted that the fee would be double.
The treatment and consultation time was no different, as if I had been a registered customer, and therefore find it difficult to understand their pricing policy.
I wonder, is it the animals welfare at heart here, or a quick way to make a buck or two? If I had not been in a position to afford this unjustified increase, would they have turned us away leaving our cat still in need of medical treatment? I will be contacting head office with my disappointment , and if for any reason you should decide not to publish or post this review, then I may speak to our local newspaper, as customers should have the choice of positive and negative feedback.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. We are sorry if our pricing structure was not fully explained to you. We strive to give excellent customer care and service both to our registered clients and to anyone who feel they need us in an emergency. Our surcharge for non registered clients at the weekend or during a bank holiday is £15.00. This is on top of our normal consultation fee of £25.00, and treatment would be charged extra. All veterinary surgeries are required to provide an out of hours service, so, although Mr Ash's regular vet was closed, there should have been an emergency service available to him for his cat.
We did try today to contact the Veterinary Surgery where Mr Ash informed us he was registered for previous history for his cat, but that surgery did not have any registration for them.
If Mr Ash could contact the surgery, Sonia Moretto, the Joint Venture Partner, would be happy to discuss his concerns in detail.

ABC News' Amy Walter (@amyewalter) reports:
COLUMBIA, S.C. — In a graduation speech Saturday morning at the University of South Carolina, former U.S. Ambassador to China and potential 2012 Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman tried his best to look like a cool, young dad instead of a traditional politician.
He kicked off his remarks to the 1,150 graduates by thanking the university's president, Dr. Harris Pastides, for an introduction that "made me sound pretty cool."
Huntsman then went on to recount his time as a young man playing in the rock band "Wizard" noting that he once had Rod Stewart-like hair and "I wouldn't wear anything but super skinny jeans."
He ended his remarks with a reference to Ben Folds, a musician who was popular when most of the graduates were in diapers. He ended his speech by telling the soon to be grads "never forget to rock and roll."
But the former ambassador and Utah governor also addressed more weighty matters, including the issue that both Republicans and Democrats appear intent on using against him if he launches a White House bid — his service in the administration of a president he may now be seeking to run against.
"Work to keep America great. Serve her if asked. I was, by a president of a different political party," Huntsman said. "But in the end, while we might not all be of one party, we are all part of one nation — a nation that needs your generational gift, energy and confidence."
It was a coming out party of sorts for the former ambassador. Just a week since returning stateside from his posting in China, Huntsman made his public debut to South Carolina voters, about a dozen national political reporters and even to his own aides, many of whom have been working on his non-campaign in his absence for a few months now.
That he chose South Carolina and a graduation ceremony is notable. South Carolina, of course, is one of the four early primary states, and a graduation ceremony, instead of a traditional political event, allowed him to define himself as a person and not just a politician. He offered up some biographical highlights, noting that he met his wife in high school where both held part time jobs at a Marie Callender's restaurant.
Even so, the South Carolina primary doesn't seem like a natural fit for Huntsman, whose moderate record on issues like cap-and trade-and civil unions for gay couples are not likely to sit well with the evangelical conservative electorate here.
The debate over America's relationship with China is also going to be something Huntsman is going to have navigate. China was often used as a boogeyman during the 2010 election cycle and potential candidates like Donald Trump have made China's "currency manipulation" a major talking point in speeches to GOP-oriented groups.
"There are many in China who think their time has come, that America's best days are over. And, there are probably some in this country who have lost confidence and think that China is the next big thing," Huntsman said, previewing how he plans to handle the issue. "But these people aren't seeing things from my earlier vantage point of 10,000 miles away. The way I saw it from overseas, America's passion remains as strong today as ever."
Huntsman has wasted no time jump-starting the preparations for a potential presidential bid. In fact, several key supporters, including veterans of Sen. John McCain's 2008 presidential operation, had already formed a kind of campaign-in-waiting by the time Huntsman touched down in the U.S. last week.
On Tuesday Huntsman set up a federal political action committee, "H PAC." A spokesman for the PAC, Tim Miller, said it was "an organizational step that will allow him to travel the country, discuss issues that are important to him, and support Republican candidates."
Over the course of the past week Huntsman has been in Washington, DC and in New York City meeting with advisers, potential donors, elected officials and Republican party leaders.
Later this month, he will travel to New Hampshire to deliver another commencement speech, that one at Southern New Hampshire University. And in June, Huntsman plans to take part in a Republican Leadership Conference event in New Orleans, a gathering that is shaping up to be a major GOP cattle call that will include several other potential presidential candidates.
"Things are moving pretty quickly," he told reporters in South Carolina on Friday after a meeting with the state's new Republican Gov. Nikki Haley. "Whatever timeline one is looking at can't be more than a couple months."
Despite the fact that a pack of DC-based reporters were hungry for a chance to speak to him, Huntsman was ferried out of the building immediately following Saturday morning's ceremony. Instead of stopping by the South Carolina GOP convention which is going on down the street, Huntsman was headed about 100 miles south to Charleston for what his aides said were "private meetings."

Audience Reviews
I know the adaptation of Jack Kethum's "Offspring" has it's problems one being acting with some of the characters ,costume and a few other flaws but I really enjoyed this gory little fun fest.I had heard so many negative things about it I didn't watch it right away but I'm glad I did. It's really quite shocking and very gory in parts and the gore was very well done.At the end of the day it's a movie I'll watch again.

Cannibals!! Some of it is pretty gross depending on your sensitivity. They even do some close ups on the gore.. a drunken woman comes home to find her baby sitter killed & ?alice? so to speak is still in the house with her siblings. The cops are investigating & one of them had to deal with the cannibals once before & Still trying to find them. 2 words.. Baby Ouch I can just imagine what some of the grunting means.. Hey honey What?s for dinner?.... Brains its what?s for dinner! (& no, no zombies included) C
- sykora259517, Saturday, February 6, 2010
I have to give them credit.. it is just as wierd as the book.. It really isn't enough of a plot to pull off a great movie.. it's gory.. and leaves enough unexplained to leave you wondering.. (I don't recall them ever really saying where they came from in the book either.. the movie says something about an old light house keeper.. but not much else) No steller acting , no high tech special effects.. but if you are in the mood for a bloody gore fest.. here ya go.. (and one of the best death scenes you WANT to see happen.. as the character deserves every bit of it) Note added later: After reading another entry.. I see the book was a sequel.. I never read the first one, so that explains why it never said where they came from.. :)

LOS ANGELES — The Emmy Awards are television's biggest celebration of itself, but this year's ceremony will face an intruder: "House of Cards," the first online series to nab a top nomination with its best drama series.
Netflix's triumph on Thursday, which includes nods for its revival of "Arrested Development," is putting a further squeeze on the broadcast networks that already have lost substantial Emmy ground to cable. New network offerings were almost completely shut out and, like last year, no network drama made the nominations cut.
Kevin Spacey, the nominated star of the political drama "House of Cards," reveled in its impressive nine bids and role as a groundbreaker.
It's "really, in many ways, kind of a new paradigm," he said. "It's just a great, great thing for all of us."
The major networks, ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox, likely have a different viewpoint. Cable channels over the year have sharply eroded their share of the audience, and now the Internet is nibbling away and will only become more robust as viewers turn increasingly to computers and other devices to consume video.
A 6-year-old TV academy rules change allows online entries to compete with cable and broadcast programs, but until Thursday online shows popped up only in lower-profile categories.
"It's really groundbreaking," said Ted Sarandos, chief content officer for Netflix. "It's beyond our most bold expectations. We were thinking a single nomination would be a win... It's as much a win for Internet television as it is for the content creators."
Networks still field the most-watched series — such as top-rated series "NCIS" and the 20 million-plus viewers it delivers weekly to CBS — and enjoy the rich opportunities they represent.
"There's nothing more profitable than having a big broadcast television hit that can be exploited on multiple platforms," including syndication and online, said Garth Ancier, a former executive for both broadcast networks and cable.
But when the Emmys are presented this fall on CBS, it will surely be irritating to serve as a promotional vehicle for the competition. The ceremony rotates among the big four broadcasters who, with the exception of basically flat NBC, saw their number of Emmy bids decline this year.
Besides the showing by Netflix, the leading number of nominations went to a cable miniseries, FX's "American Horror Story: Asylum." HBO fielded the next top nominees: "Game of Thrones" with 16 nods and the Liberace biopic "Behind the Candelabra" earned 15 nominations.
NBC's "Saturday Night Live" came in with 15 as well, but it, outgoing "30 Rock" (also NBC, 13 bids) and "Modern Family" (ABC, 12 nominations) had the only impressive tallies for broadcast.
The bonanza of nominations for "Game of Thrones" is the swords-and-fantasy show's most-ever and includes a best drama series nod and three acting bids, including one for Peter Dinklage.
Recognition went to a number of other primarily big-screen actors who have migrated to TV for powerhouse projects, with Michael Douglas and Matt Damon for "Under the Candelabra" among them.
Joining "House of Cards" and "Game of Thrones" in the best drama series category are "Breaking Bad," ''Downton Abbey," ''Mad Men" and last year's winner, "Homeland."
"Mad Men," which last year missed out on the best drama trophy that would have been its record-setting fifth, eclipsing fellow four-time winners "Hill Street Blues," ''L.A. Law" and "The West Wing," gets another shot this year.
"Mad Men" and its creator failed to receive any writing nominations for the first time in the series' six-year history.

Nintendo is forced to pay another company for every 3DS sold
Posted By Enrique Manalang On January 6, 2014 @ 11:18 AM In General Tech | 2 Comments
Nintendo's Wii U is still suffering from a slow start, and now that stiff next-gen competition has arrived from the likes of Sony and Microsoft, things aren't getting any easier for the Japanese gaming giant. However, the company's 3DS handheld remains a shimmering light amidst its woes, with a rapidly increasing install base paired with a number of highly-rated titles.
But it seems that even the 3DS isn't immune to Nintendo's recent poor fortune. According to Kotaku, a US judge has declared that Nintendo has been using another company's patented camera tech without permission. Because of the ruling, Nintendo must now pay the company, Tomita, 1.82 percent of the wholesale price for every 3DS sold. This is effective for the rest of the 3DS's lifetime.
It might not sound like a big percentage, but if the 3DS continues to sell at its current rate for years to come, the amount of money lost to Tomita will be significant. And with Nintendo struggling as it is, even 1.82 percent can be a big hit.

Subbing Lobster for Crab

Kind of an odd question. Making a recipe for cold tomato soup with lump crabmeat. Oddly, I've been finding that fresh lump lobster meat is substantially cheaper than lump crab meat in my area (very odd result of the financial crisis).
Can I sub lobster for crab?
