Sales to U.S. foodservice customers were approximately 2% lower than in the second quarter of 2007. North American Other sales decreased 1.2%, as shipments of Syracuse China products decreased approximately 14% and sales of World Tableware and Traex products were up approximately 7% and 5%, respectively. International sales increased 29.6% as the result of increased sales to customers of Libbey China, Royal Leerdam and Crisal. A majority of the increased sales is attributable to Libbey China and a favorable currency impact on European sales. Excluding the currency impact, international sales increased approximately 14.0%.
The company reported income from operations of $18.7 million during the quarter, compared with income from operations of $20.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Factors contributing to the decrease in income from operations were lower production activity in Mexico as the result of a scheduled furnace rebuild, along with higher natural gas and electricity costs. Higher sales partially offset these increased costs.
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $19.3 million, compared with $21.2 million in the year-ago quarter. EBIT was $14.9 million for North American Glass, compared with $16.5 million in the second quarter of 2007, as a result of the lower production activity in Mexico due to the furnace rebuild and higher natural gas expenses. North American Other reported EBIT of $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared with $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2007. The decrease was primarily a result of the lower sales at Syracuse China. The International segment reported EBIT of $0.7 million, which was a $0.4 million improvement compared with the year-ago quarter. This improvement was primarily related to Libbey China being in full operation, along with higher international sales, partially offset by higher natural gas costs in Europe. Libbey reported that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) were $30.5 million in the second quarter of 2008, compared with EBITDA of $31.9 million in the year-ago quarter.
"To have achieved record second quarter sales -- and our second-highest quarterly sales performance ever -- in the face of this difficult economic environment is a testimony to the soundness of the transformational strategy we put in place 10 quarters ago," said John F. Meier, chairman and chief executive officer. "Clearly, our efforts to dramatically reshape our global 'footprint' by expanding our international manufacturing base are paying off handsomely, as we have seen strong sales of Crisa, our Mexican product line, and in our Libbey China glassware. Similarly, we are quite pleased with the relative strength of our total North American Glass business performance, which continues to aggressively combat unprecedented natural gas and electricity costs. We are seeing the benefits of our lean manufacturing efforts while continuing to provide the quality and service our customers have come to expect from Libbey."
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, sales increased 6.6% to $412.1 million from $386.6 million in the year-ago period. North American Glass sales increased 4.0% to $282.5 million from $271.7 million in the year-ago period. The increase in sales was attributable to an approximate 11% increase in both Crisa's sales and in shipments to retail glassware customers in the U.S. and Canada. Partially offsetting this increase was a 6.4% decrease in U.S. foodservice glassware sales. As a result of lower Syracuse China sales, North American Other sales decreased 2.1%. International sales increased 26% as a result of significantly increased shipments to customers of Libbey China and favorable currency impact on European sales. Excluding the currency impact, international sales increased approximately 11.3%.
For the third quarter of 2008, the company currently expects sales to continue to be solid, in the range of $220 million to $225 million, and EBITDA to be between $27 million and $29 million. "As the result of our performance to date, including EBITDA within our previous guidance and expectations for ongoing energy cost pressure, we now anticipate full-year 2008 EBITDA to be in the range of $114 million to $118 million on expected sales of slightly more than $870 million," said Meier.

MADISON AVENUE VAMPIRE JENNA REYNOLDS ISBN: 9781419927256 August 2010 Ellora's Cave Twilight, an imprint of Ellora's Cave Publishing www.ellorascave.com EBook $5.20 140 Pages Erotic Paranormal Rating: 4 Cups
Lana Sorenson is used to the stares that her body and beauty gets her. But there is something different about Richard, something that allows her to open herself to him.
What Lana does not know is that Richard is a vampire. When she finds out the truth, he will have to decide where their relationship must go from there.
When he is around the oh-so-tempting Lana, all he can think about is making love to her and tasting her succulent blood. However, he is afraid to go so far due to a past mistake that cost him another woman he loved. Can Lana convince Richard that he is not the monstrosity he sees himself as, but a gentleman vampire who has her love for all eternity?
Madison Avenue Vampire is a good book; adding the paranormal genre to the erotica genre. On top of that, Ms. Reynolds gives Richard such haunting qualities that as the reader we can practically feel his every need, his desire, his lust, and his sorrow for all that has occurred in his life and death. Add in Lana's complicated and twisted relationship with how her father was towards her and the complexities within the storyline make this a heartrending tale.

Performers strut their stuff for school administrators :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Lloyd Bachrach of Chicago has given motivational speeches in front of officials from the Chicago Board of Education, the University of Chicago and the U.S. Department of Transportation, but that resume wouldn't have gotten him onstage at a school assembly.
That's why, for the past 10 years, Bachrach has been going to Skokie each fall to attend Showcase, a Chicago area conference that allows performers to advertise their acts to nearly 600 school, library and park administrators.
About 120 acts are expected to appear at Showcase this year on Sept. 8 and 9. Anyone hiring performers for assemblies or community performances-or anyone who just wants to check out the show-can watch the acts, speak with the performers and hire their favorites.
"It's the best way for someone who does school assemblies to market themselves in the Chicagoland area," says David Fisher, an acrobatic jump roper who credits Showcase-not his performances for President George W. Bush and former President Bill Clinton-for his success in booking close to 700 shows a year.
"School assemblies are the staple of my business, and I do most of my shows in Chicago or the suburbs of Chicago. Showcase is the best way that I found to market myself here," Fisher says.
Showcase was created 27 years ago, when schools were having troubling finding quality performers and the quality performers were having trouble marketing themselves to the schools, says Pat Adams, Showcase coordinator.
At Showcase, most of the performers set up booths explaining and demonstrating their act. Thirty-six performers who audition ahead of time for Showcase officials are allowed to perform eight minutes of their act on stage, giving them more exposure to the buyers.
The performers pay $250 to set up a booth at Showcase and the attendees pay $75 to watch. The rest is up to the mingling abilities and quick decisions of the school officials, many of whom hire the performers on the spot to appear at their assemblies throughout the year.
Sylvia Caluris, fine arts chairwoman for the Immaculate Conception School in Norwood Park, says she has attended Showcase for the past six years, and she books the performers for her school assemblies every year from those she likes at Showcase.
"We look for more of an educational, historical program," Caluris says. "I find myself the whole time on the phone with my principal, saying, 'should I lock them in now?' I have nothing but the highest, highest, highest praise for Showcase."
Showcase will be held Sept. 8 and 9 at the North Shore Center of the Performing Arts in Skokie. For more information, call (847) 679-9501, ext. 3100, or visit www.centreeast.org. Danielle Braff

Recent revelations of data manipulation, exaggerated advertising of results, and violations of patient privacy in postmarketing clinical trials of drugs have made the Japanese public skeptical about the cozy ties between the pharmaceutical industry and academia. Separately, a large-scale study of Alzheimer's patients was recently found to be troubled by poor data management because of a shortage of appropriately trained professionals. These shortcomings do not bode well for the success of a planned agency, modeled on the U.S. National Institutes of Health, which will be charged with fostering public and private sector cooperation to help speed drugs from basic laboratories to the marketplace. A ministry of health advisory committee is due to report on possible fixes to the nation's clinical research regulations and practices by this fall.

The emergence of the Global Information Association has profound implications for the future: implications for how we work, how our children discover their world, how we communicate and form relationships, and how we understand, appreciate, and transmit to fu
ture generations the richness of ideas and experiences. Poised at the intersection of research, scholarship, communication, publishing, entertainment, and commerce, digital collections have the potential to combine the ideas and methodologies of wide-rang
ing disciplines in unique and creative ways and of effecting technological and social change. This integration can enrich perspectives and expand our ability to understand how the various sectors could benefit from and participate in emerging global netwo
rks. But it can also lead to social, economic, and political isolation, control, and mediocrity.
The ASIS 1997 meeting will deal broadly with the emerging phenomenon of collections of digital objects text, image, sound, and multimedia accumulated in central as well as distributed repositories or virtual collections. Topics to be address
ed will include research, technical, cultural, political, economic, and other key issues for users, funders, developers, and maintainers. These themes will be elaborated by keynote and invited speakers, and through refereed papers, panels, technical sessi
ons, and other presentations which will address the following aspects of digital collections.
Users. Who are the users? What are their capabilities and needs? What are the benefits for users? What are useful evaluation mechanisms? What existing research is applicable? What research needs to be done? What is the bigger social, political, and
commercial context into which digital collections fit? What are the negative impacts? How can the bandwidth and server gap between multimedia and text browsers be overcome? How will access be guaranteed?
Funders. What are the funding sources? What are their political and commercial expectations? How can funding be secured to digitize less profitable subject areas such as the arts and humanities? How can collaboration and cooperation be encouraged?
What are the funding realities? What returns can be expected on the investments? How can these returns be realized?
Developers. What are the practical technical applications? What are the current and future technical architectures? What current research is applicable? What research needs to be done? What are the issues of intellectual access?
Maintainers. How will digital collections be maintained? What are the information management issues? What tools are needed for managing collections (both high-end "quality" collections and personal or small user community collections)? How can the
authenticity, validity, and reliability of objects be identified and maintained?
Digital Collections:
Implications for Users, Funders, Developers, and Maintainers

Which boat would you guys suggest for the choppiest sea conditions?
Full on salt-water. Are there any boats that are self-righting? |

Yes there is.. look for boats with: "boat tilting/float room" (don't know the english word for it)

Are you talking like out in the open water or at the beach with crashing waves?
Im not really in to boats at all but I don't think any would be self righting apart from the v-hulls and even half of them look like they would easily sit upside down. I had a quick look and I would probably go for something like this. About 1m long with a v-hull and not too wide, you will have to make sure its got a 100% water tight seal too. Even if there are any 100% of the time self correcting boats I would always make sure you can get to it at at time if need be in case you have a electrical or mechanical problem. |

And look at the pictures in the link you got from ricostarr. It's a DIY thing, and the trick is to make a water tight compartment with the right weight/volume to flip it over. The water compartment is in one of the sides of the hull, and has a big hole in the rear end of the boat, to let water in and out. I'm not into boats, just got fascinated by this "trick" oh BTW: youtube and google is your friend -Troels |

Home grounding issues, the saga continues: part 176, ethernet
Hi all,
No idea which forum to post this on, I thought solid state might have been appropriate originally, but everything else if in doubt I suppose... I have had an earthing issue for a while. Initially I thought it was my preamp that was having issues, but since then, I've noticed a lot of RF in my Yamaha home theatre amp (picking up some obscure broadcast). So in my quest to further my understanding of my issue, I thought I'd try omitting the pre altogether, and moving away from the living room (where the noisy home theatre lives) and feed my power amp (JLH, when feeding the speakers without an input , is VERY quiet) directly from my mac mini (I'd hope they'd think carefully about grounding at least). Anyway, amp silent. Plug in Mac, muted, and annoying RF!! Pants! And this time on the radio, I can keenly discern Lilly the Pink, and later some bad Tom Jones. So not good. But then, unlike downstairs, after a few seconds, the RF vanishes! Perplexed, I then decide to just stream some audio via youtube, and lo and behold, the RF is back! After despair, and then some thought, I disconnected the ethernet cable on my Mac, and it vanished. So, after months (literally, months! The whole summer) I've narrowed down the earthing problem I have in the house down to the ethernet. Basically, I have two rooms involved, I think they are on separate rings. In the middle (I think on one of the two rings) I have a broadband hub, which I believe is unearthed - just fed by a two pole (plastic earth pin) wallwart type PSU. This feeds wired ethernet quite simply to the Macmini mentioned on one ring, and a PS3, which shares power with the TV and Yamaha etc, on the other. If I unplug the PS3 ethernet connection, and leave the Macmini plugged in, there is no issue. So I think I have a large earth loop here, which is odd, because I thought twisted pair ethernet was galvanically isolated, and so didn't get grounded (or didn't need to be grounded). Does anyone know how I can fix this (other than wifi!). Is there such a thing as an ethernet isolator? Help! This low-rent radio station is doing my nut in!!! Cheers, Phil |

can you dump the wired internet and go wireless from the router to your pc?
ie wireless router to macmini to your JLH amp? remember ALL wiring is an antenna, grounding may not fix it but shielding and rf bypass might. Last edited by multisync; 3rd September 2012 at 09:04 PM. |

Thanks for the reply. The Macmini was just a chance to remove the preamp to investigate, but it did reveal the problem. I am sort of stuck with the wired ethernet up there for other reasons.
I think the bigger issue is the PS3 remains a wired connection, and may be feeding hash into the AV setup downstairs. Wifi definitely isn't quick enough for online gaming and stuff. Good point about all wiring being an antenna. I thought it would be ok as is, being supposedly isolated, but might investigate perhaps shielded cat 6 or something. Seems a bit unnecessary though. Surely this should all just work? O the joys of grounding. |

AM or FM radio? long cable are likely common mode antenna
donuts, clamp-on lossy ferrite RF supressors can help with common mode FM more readily than AM (single pass for FM, AM requires multi-turns, is shorted out at higher RFI freq by the turn-to-turn C) http://www.elmac.co.uk/pdfs/ferrite.pdf http://www.arvelo.net/N2MZZ/graphics...acing-k9yc.pdf Last edited by jcx; 3rd September 2012 at 10:45 PM. |

Thanks jcx,
I have some small ferrite torroids I might be able to shove an ethernet plug through, I'll give it a try. I also wondered how on earth are these things being grounded, and wondered if it was the spare POE wires just being grounded (well, the GND anyway). I have a cheap POE injector, which should be able to isolate those pins, so I might try using one of those to see if it breaks anything. But, I still can't believe its a ground loop, so you might be right about the antenna. I'm not sure if it's FM or AM. I'd imagine FM, as it's surprisingly clear, and there aren't many AM stations about these days (and it sounds rather local). I shall investigate further.. Thanks everyone for the help. Phil |

Ethernet is isolated,and shouldnot pick up radio like taht, think of all the big installatione tec. I would suspect that the HUB may not be up to it. Is the local station near and is it broadcasting over power!Have a look at the EMC club
EMC Information Centre - The EMC Journal (Free in the UK) the banana skins section of the mag has stories similar to yours, you may find a solution there, this is an EMC problem and this site is one of the best for info. Keith Armstrong is one of the main contributers to the site. |

FM breakthrough is unlikely, unless you happen to have something in your system which is resonating near the right frequency so you can get slope detection.
Ethernet isolation is intended mainly to stop power frequencies, including hum loops, not RF. Ferrites should help. |

Hi All,
Well. Listening with my phone radio, it appears that I can probably hear BBC Radio Wiltshire (104.3 MHz FM). Nice. I'm particularly au fait with local radio. I can't listen for much longer to confirm... From what I can tell from the BBC website, they don't appear to broadcast in AM. They've gone all modern and started playing Simply Red. Oh help! I've tried a small ferrite, and it hasn't done anything. I have a bigger sized split ferrite in the post to try. I shall try moving the PS3 to the same mains ring as everything else to see if its anything to with earth loops, then I guess I might need to try shielded cat6 cable. Such an odd issue! |

Moved the PS3 over to the same ring as the hub and mac, and same issue - until I unplugged the HDMI connection to the TV (on the other ring). So surely an earth loop - but how can it be?
BTW The PS3 is just plugged in, it's not running. So it's earthed, but that's about it. |

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is one of the first great American novels. The book is noted for its innocent young protagonist, its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River, and its sober and often scathing look at the entrenched attitudes, particularly racism, of the time. The journey of Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, down the Mississippi River on their raft may be one of the most enduring images of escape and freedom in all of American literature.
"Too bad"
The master storyteller amuses and entertains with a collection of stories which includes: "The Man Who Corrupted Hadleyburg", "The Double Barrelled Detective Story", "The Jumping Frog of Calaveras County", "The Million Dollar Bank Note", "Benton and Mills", "A Tale", "Cannibalism in the Cars", "The Stolen White Elephant", "The Man Who Put Up at Gadsby's", "The Good Little Boy", "The Bad Little Boy", and "Baker's Blue Jay Yarn".
"Poorly Edited"
One of the most enduring American novels of all time, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn follows the adventures of Huck Finn and a runaway slave named Jim as they travel down the Mississippi river on a raft--all in order to help Jim win his freedom from slavery. Told in Twain's unique style, Huck Finn's story is one of the greatest tales of love, respect, and human decency, told through the eyes of an unlearned, but big-hearted, boy.

Exploring the Most Important Question in the History of Internet
By Dustin Rowles | Think Pieces | April 10, 2012 | Comments ()
You will find a lot of think pieces on the Internet devoted to politics (Obama vs. Romney), how technology has changed the way we consume media (cable boxes vs. Netflix), the gender composition on television (Labia Saturation vs. Assholes), and how we view movies (To 3D or Not to 3D). But if you take porn out of the equation -- a topic best viewed but not discussed -- the three most popular subjects on the entire Internet are these: Puppies, Kittens, and Babies. The debates between Peeta vs. Gale, Edward vs. Jacob, and Madonna vs. Lady Gaga shrink by comparison when it comes to the sheer percentage of Internet real-estate devoted to these topics. For instance, upstart aggregator Buzzfeed regularly features posts devoted to puppies (e.g., Puppies Eating Ice Cream), kittens (e.g., Cats hanging out in shoes), and babies (e.g., 45 Babies wearing glasses)
But no one has really paused and attempted to get inside the psychology of our obsession. What is it about adorable kittens, cute puppies, and captivating babies that attracts our attention? And why is it that most people fall into one camp, instead of two or three? Why are some people dog people, and some people cat people, and why are those two constituencies so hostile toward baby people?
I don't understand these phenomena, myself. Personally, I am anti-cute puppy and adorable kitten, and I believe that devoting even a fraction of our unlimited Internet space to these two subjects is antithetical to good taste. I think it's dopey. I currently write for a site that I love despite the fact that Corgi Fridays is a popular weekly feature, and where a post comparing dogs to "Mad Men" characters was one of the most popular of last week. I respect it, but I don't get it. But show me an adorable baby, and I will awww with the best of them. However, if I were to feature a Baby Friday post on Warming Glow, I would likely be flayed alive. Why? Why do Corgi people hate babies? Why are baby people indifferent to Corgis?
What is the deal? Why is America fractured among these lines? Why can't we love all adorable things? What are the factors that pull us apart? How can one person love adorable kittens but hate adorable babies? It's a total mindfuck.
Explain yourselves. Are you a puppy person, a kitten person, or a baby person. Why?
Here's a poll.
Here are the exhibits:
What I do know is that, before life beats us down, before all the societal pressures pulls us into different camps, we begin life with no biases. We are all kitten people. We are all puppy people. We are all baby people.

There'd been a terrible mistake. Wayside School was supposed to be built with thirty classrooms one on top of the other...thirty stories tall! (The builder said he was very sorry.)
That may be why all kinds of funny things happen at Wayside SChool...especially on the thirteenth floor. You'll meet Mrs. Gorf, the meanest teacher of all, terrible Todd, who always gets sent home early, and John who can read only upside down--along with all the other kids in the crazy mix-up school that came out sideways. But you'll never guess the truth about Sammy, the new kid...or what's in store for Wayside School on Halloween!
There was a terrible mistake-Wayside School was built with one classroom on top of another, thirty stories high! (The builder said he was sorry.) Maybe that's why all kinds of funny things happened at Wayside-especially on the thirteenth floor.My daughter is 9 and just loved these silly stories! Great, quick reading for a child who doesn't like to read or has problems with reading.

"The surest place to move me from surplus is there," he said. "I look around and say, 'I'm CEO of a Fortune 300 company, and so why do I get only two weeks a year? Why don't I own one of these beautiful vacation homes?' "
Thrivent isn't trying to argue that income has nothing to do with what Hewitt called the "journey to surplus."
The median household income of people on the lowest rungs of Thrivent's ladder of financial well-being, what it calls subsistence, struggling and stable, was about $56,000. For those who were classified as secure or in surplus, the median household income was $75,000.
But what people do with the money they have has more to do with how confident they feel about their financial situation.
In one particularly telling example, the company found that 28 percent of people who rate themselves as subsistence or struggling have a home worth at least five times their annual household income. Only 3 percent of people who rate themselves as surplus do.
Much of this research and thinking about how to get clients to move into surplus has been integrated into the company's work in the Rocky Mountain region and will be rolled out to advisers in the rest of the company over the next two or three years.
The basics of doing financial planning and selling insurance packages and plans to accumulate savings haven't changed. What changes is the goal.
"All have heard it," Hewitt said, of the company's advisers. "Most believe it."
Hewitt thinks one key for a client to make the surplus goal is getting a good coach or adviser, although Hewitt said it doesn't necessarily have to be one of his. Such advisers coach people to the best opportunities to volunteer or donate some money, along with helping to execute a financial plan.
Hewitt has an adviser, although he doesn't appear to need anyone to teach him the value of volunteering.
One place he helps out is at work sites run by Urban Homeworks, a Minneapolis-based nonprofit that renovates houses, teaches skills in construction and runs programs to help people make connections with each other in a neighborhood.
When Hewitt shows up, he's immediately classified as unskilled. Not long ago, a site manager gave the unskilled guys the task of emptying the construction dumpster of garbage tossed in overnight by the neighbors, including some soiled and wet mattresses.
Hewitt said it's never occurred to him, when driving away from a volunteer job like fishing mattresses out of a dumpster, that what he really needed to do was go buy a new boat.
"One of my pet peeves is that people say I need to go to north Minneapolis because those people need my help," he said. "It's just the opposite. I need to go work in north Minneapolis in order for me to get help. It actually changes me. It changes my attitude."
"I all of a sudden have the chance to be in surplus."

Exercise training programs in Dutch cardiac rehabilitation centres. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 23338553 Owner: NLM Status: PubMed-not-MEDLINE |
PURPOSE: To assess methods for determination of exercise intensity, and to investigate practice variation with respect to the contents, volume and intensity of exercise training programs in Dutch cardiac rehabilitation (CR) centres. METHODS: A paper questionnaire was sent to all Dutch CR centres, consisting of 85 questions for patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or after coronary revascularisation (Group 1) and for patients with chronic heart failure (CHF, Group 2). RESULTS: CR professionals from 45 centres completed the questionnaires (58 %). Symptom-limited exercise testing was used to determine exercise capacity in 76 % and 64 % of the CR centres in group 1 and group 2, respectively; in these centres, a percentage of the maximum heart rate was the most frequently used exercise parameter (65 % and 56 %, respectively). All CR centres applied aerobic training and the majority applied strength training (64 % in group 1 and 92 % in group 2, respectively). There was a considerable variation in training intensity for both aerobic and strength training, as well as in training volume (1-20 h and 1-18 h respectively). CONCLUSION: Among Dutch CR centres, considerable variation exists in methods for determination of exercise intensity. In addition, there is no uniformity in training volume and intensity. |

The devotees across the state, and other parts of the country would take part in the celebrations. The Durga Malleswara Swamy Devasthanam Durga temple management has invited e-tenders for the supply of water packets.
Some bidders had offered to supply water at 35 paise a sachet. It was estimated that it would cost Rs.10 lakh, he said. Mr. Rao asked the plant owners to obtain ISI certificates by applying before September 20.
The plant owners had volunteered to supply 10 lakh sachets free of cost. Thanking the plant owners' for their gesture, temple EO M. Raghunath said that it was necessary to draw a plan regarding sachets supply. Each plant owner should inform the temple about the day, and number of sachets which they intend to supply.
If all water sachets were dumped on a single day, it would be of no use, he said. Youth Welfare Officer Velaga Joshi, RWS EE Padmanabha Rao, DE Trinatha Rao, District Redcross Society treasurer Illa Ravi, temple EE Murali Balakrishna, and others were present.

Significance and Use
In order to estimate ETS concentrations, there needs to be a marker or tracer for ETS that is unique or highly specific to tobacco smoke, in sufficient concentrations in air to be measured easily at realistic smoking rates, and in constant proportion to the other components of ETS for a variety of tobacco blends and environmental conditions. Nicotine and 3-ethenylpyridine have been used as tracers of the vapor phase of ETS. Nicotine is the major alkaloid of tobacco and a major constituent of ETS. The determination of nicotine concentration has often been used to estimate the concentration of ETS; however, due to its unpredictable decay kinetics, nicotine may not be an ideal tracer. Because nicotine readily adsorbs to building materials and room furnishings and is depleted from ETS at a rate faster than most other components, some have suggested that nicotine concentrations underestimate ETS concentrations. Although this is true in many environments during the generation of smoke, the converse is true in environments with a recent past history of smoking. The adsorbed nicotine slowly desorbs over time, resulting in an overestimation of ETS concentrations. Thus, measured concentrations of nicotine precisely assess only airborne nicotine and indicate only that smoking has taken place; they do not necessarily indicate the presence, and certainly not the concentrations, of other ETS constituents. 3-Ethenylpyridine, on the other hand, has been shown to track exactly the vapor phase of ETS as measured by CO and FID response (3). It is for these reasons that 3-ethenylpyridine may be a better tracer of ETS (1,4,5). The ETS at high concentrations is known to be annoying and irritating to individuals, and concerns over potential health effects have also been expressed. There is a definite need to have reliable methods for the estimation of ETS levels in order to evaluate its effect. The NIOSH has previously set a threshold limit value (TLV) for nicotine in the workplace of 0.5 mg/m3.
Studies show that more than 90 % of nicotine in indoor air is found in the vapor phase (6,7). The described test method collects vapor-phase nicotine quantitatively. Early studies on freshly generated ETS indicated that some but not all of the particulate phase was trapped on the XAD-4 resin (7). A more recent investigation of the trapping of particulate materials by sorbent beds suggests that the trapping of the particles from indoor air may be nearly quantitative (8). 3-Ethenylpyridine is found exclusively in the vapor phase.
Nicotine concentrations typically range from ND (not detected) to 70 μg/m3 in various indoor environments with values usually at the lower end of this range (9). Because such low concentrations of nicotine are often encountered, sophisticated analytical procedures and equipment are required for quantifying nicotine in indoor air. Other methods for the determination of nicotine in indoor air have also been reported (6,10,11,12). 3-Ethenylpyridine concentrations typically are about one third the concentrations of nicotine in real-world environments (13).
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the sampling/analysis of nicotine and 3-ethenylpyridine (3-EP) in indoor air. This test method is based upon the collection of nicotine and 3-EP by adsorption on a sorbent resin, extraction of nicotine and 3-EP from the sorbent resin, and determination by gas chromatography (GC) with nitrogen selective detection. (1)
1.2 The active samplers consist of an XAD-4 sorbent tube attached to a sampling pump. This test method is applicable to personal or area sampling.
1.3 This test method is limited in sample duration by the capacity of the XAD-4 tube for nicotine (about 300 μg). This test method has been evaluated up to 24-h sample duration; however, samples are typically acquired for at least 1 h (sometimes only 1 h). (2)
1.4 For this test method, limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) for nicotine at a sampling rate of 1.5 L/min are, respectively, 0.11 μg/m3 and 0.37 μg/m3 for 1-h sample duration and 0.01 μg/m3 and 0.05 μg/m3 for 8-h sample duration. The LOD and LOQ for 3-EP at a sampling rate of 1.5 L/min are, respectively, 0.06 μg/m3 and 0.19 μg/m3 for 1-h sample duration and 0.01 μg/m3 and 0.02 μg/m3 for 8-h sample duration (2). Both LOD and LOQ can be reduced by increasing the sensitivity of the thermionic specific detector.
1.5 Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

A group of college students armed with knives and stones brutally attacked students from another college inside an MTC bus on Tiruvottiyur High Road in Washermenpet on Thursday morning. Three students and an elderly woman passenger, who was caught in the altercation, were injured.
The incident took place around 9.30 a.m. when the bus on route number 6 D (Tolgate to Thiruvanmiyur) reached a stop near Pandian cinema hall and was boarded by a group of over 15 students. "Once the bus started moving, they assaulted some persons in the packed vehicle and women onboard began to scream for help. Some of the assailants brandished knives and the rest had sticks and stones," said Gomathi from Manali, who was waiting for another bus at the stop.
"The group beat up three boys and disembarked after warning them," she added.
Washermenpet police reached the spot and identified the injured as Raja (22) from Manali, Sarath Kumar (20) and Nagaraj (24), both from Attipattu. The three men, who are students of a government college here, suffered cut wounds on the head and body. The students were admitted to the Government Stanley hospital for treatment.
Gowri (64), a resident of VOC Nagar in Tondiarpet, suffered a cut injury on her hand.

Regulatory ArbitrageVictor FleischerUniversity of San Diego School of Law March 4, 2010 U of Colorado Law Legal Studies Research Paper No. 10-11 Abstract: Most of us share a vague intuition that the rich, sophisticated, well-advised, and politically connected somehow game the system to avoid regulatory burdens the rest of us comply with. The intuition is correct; this Article explains how it's done. Regulatory gamesmanship typically relies on a planning technique known as regulatory arbitrage, which occurs when parties take advantage of a gap between the economics of a deal and its regulatory treatment, restructuring the deal to reduce or avoid regulatory costs without unduly altering the underlying economics of the deal. This Article provides the first comprehensive theory of regulatory arbitrage, identifying the conditions under which arbitrage takes place and the various legal, business, professional, ethical, and political constraints on arbitrage. This theoretical framework reveals how regulatory arbitrage distorts regulatory competition, shifts the incidence of regulatory costs, and fosters a lack of transparency and accountability that undermines the rule of law.

Contribution of consultants to care of compromised pregnancies. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 8776065 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Obstetricians often seek consultative services of other specialists in the management of compromised pregnancies. However, the extent of such consultations and the contribution of these consultants have not been addressed in the literature. This study is addresses the contribution of consultants to the care of complicated pregnancies at a tertiary care center. During the 2 1/2 years of this retrospective study, 2263 antepartum admissions were made for pregnancy complications. One hundred sixty-six of those patients were hospitalized 176 times and were treated by one or more consulting physicians for a consultation rate of 7.8%. Eighteen specialties were consulted, including 54 (32%) consultations from maternal fetal medicine, 44 (24%) from internal medicine, 28 (16%) from general surgery, and 22 (12%) from endocrinology. Of the initial admission diagnoses, 87.9% were confirmed and 46 new diagnoses were made by the consultants. A significant positive correlation was noted between the number of consultants, maternal length of hospital stay, and maternal hospitalization cost. |

Top runners' favorite shoes
Whether you're a marathon runner or just starting out, wearing the right sneakers is key before you hit the track.
We asked some of the best runners from the 2010 to 2012 Long Island Marathons for their top running shoe recommendations.
Dan and Shaun McGrath, speedy brothers from Lynbrook who are both past winners, said they prefer something lightweight but with enough support to run serious distances. Lindsey Block of Huntington's feet felt free as she finished before every other woman in 2012 in her non-constricting Brooks Green Silence shoes.
Check out their recommendations and the picks of other men and women who have been among the first to cross the finish line.

Mary-Kate Olsen Smokes in Front of Boyfriend's Daughter: Bad Role Model, or No Big Deal?

Bad girl, Mary-Kate! The Olsen twin, 26, was spotted strolling in New York with her 42-year-old boyfriend Olivier Sarkozy (half-brother of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy) and his tweenage-looking daughter. All the while, Mary-Kate Olsen was puffing away on a cigarette, The Daily Mail reports.
The actress-turned-fashion mogul and the investment banker appear to be going strong, but we wonder what this little girl's momma has to say about the secondhand smoke, even if they are French. Mary-Kate, don't you know that smoking ages your skin? And oh yeah, it can kill you.

I can see that Mary Kate should be like a mother figure infront of his daughter, but his daughter should be taking care of by her own father, not Mary Kate. As I do know, parents (or parent figures)'s smoking acts are taken up by children and teen, but not always. Smoking is not a big deal, and Mary Kate has the freedom to do what she wants. Now, I would wanna throw in, why does the girl's father think it's okay for his daughter to be around a smoker, such as Mary Kate. SHE is under her Father's care, and Mary Kate is to be like a mother figure. If her father raises his daughter to be a mature non-smoking woman, good for him. Smoking is worldwide and almost considered normal. Now, if Mary Kate were smoking hash or Marijuana or any other forms of drugs, I would think far more differently, but cigarettes arent THAT much of a problem. Basically, the daughter should be under her Father's care, not Mary Kate.

Bad Role ModelIn six monthis it looks like the kid will be able to beat up Mary Kate.
Not to mention the kid will have greater stamina. - alex 2012/06/23 15:01:21

- 001 2012/06/23 09:26:15No Big DealIt's no big deal. We all know smoking is bad and people still do it, they don't care who's watching. It happens all the time, a lot of parents smoke or let friends smoke in front of their children. Most children don't care, they know it's not for them.
Then again, some kids decide that it might be for them. Some try it and hate it. Some try it and like it. So be it....everyone likes different things. Live and let live.
Bad Role ModelShe looks like a piece of work. Something tells me the girls mother has other concerns as well with that relationship. I find it amusing though that they are the same size.

Identity, Place and Environment in Literature for Young People: A One Day Colloquium Sept 29th, 2012full name / name of organization: University of Chichester contact email: email@example.com Plenary Speaker – Ré Ó Laighléis author of Terror on the Burren, Battle on the Burren. In ecocriticism, literature for young people has been an under-represented area. However, authors such as David Almond, Ré Ó Laighléis and Melvin Burgess have been writing about the relationship between the human and the 'more than human' in a number of highly acclaimed novels. The aim of this colloquium is to bring together writers, academics and students who are interested in the ways in which identity, place and environment feature in literature for young people. We now invite papers and proposals that might relate, but are not restricted to, the following themes: • Representations of nature in literature for young people; • Environmentalism, politics and literature for young people; • Issues of voicing nature in literature for young people; • Opportunities for narrative or generic experimentation thrown up by examinations of nature in literature for young people; • The importance of place in literature for young people. Please send proposals for 20 minute papers for Dr Hugh Dunkerley, University of Chichester (email@example.com). Closing date for proposals: June 1st, 2012 cfp categories: childrens_literature ecocriticism_and_environmental_studies
