Homeless projects funded through this program participated in a major research effort directed by the University of Massachusetts' Social and Demographic Research Institute. In addition, a number of surveys and special studies have focused on the relationship between homelessness and mental illness (Blackwell et al., 1990) and homelessness and alcohol and substance abuse (Institute of Medicine, 1988).
Reviews of these studies reveal that the homeless suffer from many of the same acute and chronic illnesses that afflict people in the general population but at much higher rates (Brickner et al., 1990). Because the homeless have little or no access to adequate bathing and hygienic facilities, survive on the streets or in unsafe and generally unsanitary shelters, smoke and drink to excess, and suffer from inadequate diets, their physical health is compromised. Among the findings from the Health Care for the Homeless Demonstration Projects were that the most commonly reported acute conditions were upper respiratory infections, trauma, and skin ailments. Nutritional deficiencies were found in 2 percent of those seen. Of patients seen more than once, 37 percent had at least one chronic condition including hypertension, arthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders, dental problems, gastrointestinal and neurological disorders, peripheral vascular disease, genitourinary problems, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The use of estimation techniques based on recorded diagnoses led to estimates that 38 percent of the homeless seen in the demonstration projects abused alcohol, 13 percent abused drugs other than alcohol, and 33 percent were mentally ill. During the demonstration period, the rates of tuberculosis (968 cases/100,000 population) and AIDS (230 cases/100,000) were significantly higher than those of the general population (e.g., 9 cases/100,000 for TB) (Wright and Weber, 1987). While these findings reflect the homeless population that sought care from the demonstration projects, which may inflate the burden of illness, the demographic characteristics of the patients seen in the demonstration projects did not differ significantly from those described in many ethnographic studies of the homeless (Wright and Weber, 1987).
As with the migrant and seasonal farmworker population, it is difficult to calculate vital statistic rates for the homeless. Not only is the denominator in dispute, but neither birth nor death statistics record homelessness. A study conducted in New York City compared infants born to women living in welfare hotels with infants born to women living in low-income housing projects. The babies born to homeless women living in the hotels were more likely to be of low birthweight (18 percent vs. 8.5 percent) and had a higher infant mortality rate (Chavkin et al., 1987). At the other end of the age spectrum, many who work with the homeless report that very few are over the age of 55, which suggests that the homeless die young. In support of this contention, the median age of those seen in the Health Care for the

A late race engine failure leaves Busch 32nd in Nationwide Series owner points.
The NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) entered the 2013 season today at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway where the Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) No. 54 Monster Energy team, with driver Kyle Busch, started strong with a seventh-place qualifying position, and continued with 22 laps led during the race event. The No. 54 machine was marred with a late-race engine issue that placed the team in a 32nd finishing position.
From a top-10 starting position, Busch quickly made work of the field, driving to third during lap one, then to first place by lap six. The NASCAR veteran would lead four times during the 120-lap event. Busch immediately commented to his team over the radio, "I'm seeing pack style instead of tandem." Further race activity would prove that finding 'dance' partners was key and Busch saw himself hooking up with JGR teammates Denny Hamlin and Matt Kenseth primarily, but sometimes with other team drivers such as Justin Allgaier or even brother Kurt Busch.
Early in the race the team discovered a tight-handling car when Busch drove out of the corners. He felt the condition worsened however throughout the race. Crew chief Adam Stevens tackled the condition with tire air pressure adjustments and track-bar changes over the course of five pit road visits. Another hurdle presented itself when engine temperatures appeared high. At the time, Busch declared he could stabilize the overheating issue, but knew it could grow into a larger problem by the end.
While battling through the condition, Busch found himself in the middle of a pack that ultimately elevated the engine temperature to a point that caused it to expire. Although Busch had led event laps and was trading positions within the top-10 competitors, the new team's initial season run came to a close as Busch brought the ailing machine back to the garage, firming up a 32nd-place result.
Busch commented afterwards, "Last year we ran our cars at 260 (degrees) or 270 all day and today I was about 250 to 260 so I thought being less I was going to be okay and not hurt anything. I never really thought I pushed too much water out, but there at the end it just started to heat up, the oil temperature got hot and the thing never wanted to cool back down. I assumed it was short lived, what was going to happen.
Hate it for all my guys. It was entirely my fault – just pushing too hard during most of the day. Running behind Matt (Kenseth) there trying to get air and I couldn't get air. He (Kenseth) kept backing up to me to get pushed and I'm like, 'Man I can't.' I just went a little too long."
Tony Stewart recorded his 19th Daytona NASCAR Nationwide Series victory, and seventh-time in the last nine season opening events. Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Elliott Sadler, Matt Kenseth and BrianVickers finished 15th, 16th and 19th respectively. Sam Hornish Jr., Alex Bowman, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kyle Busch's own team driver Parker Kligerman completed the top-five finishers. There were seven caution periods for 26 laps of the race along with 34 lead changes across 20 drivers.
The No. 54 Monster Energy team stands 32nd in the Owner's Point standings, 34 points from the lead.

Spectral microthermography for component discrimination and hot spot identification in integrated circuits
Optics Express, Vol. 14, Issue 3, pp. 1021-1026 (2006)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (354 KB)
We demonstrate an efficient and versatile spectral microthermography technique for identifying hot and cold spots in the active layer of a biased integrated circuit. Hot (cold) spots are regions where heat accumulates more rapidly (slowly) than the average rate of the entire active layer. Knowledge of the hot and cold spot locations is crucial in assessing the thermal integrity of a layer structure because hot spots are locations were defects are more likely to develop. The active layer is uniformly illuminated with light from a tungsten lamp and its reflectance image r(x, y) is scanned across (x-direction) the entrance slit of a grating-prism pair (GRISM) spectrometer to produce a spectral map R(λ; x, y) where λ is the wavelength [450 ≤ λ(nm) ≤ 650]. For a particular slit position x = x1 , the GRISM spectrometer outputs a one-dimensional spectral map R(λ; x1, y). A pair of maps Rub(λ; x, y) and Rb(λ; x, y) are obtained from the active layer in the absence and presence of voltage bias, respectively. A reflectance gradient map ∆R(λ; x, y) = Rb(λ; x, y) - Rub(λ; x, y), is derived and used to locate possible hot and cold spots because ∆R(λ; x, y) is proportional to the temperature gradient ∆T(λ; x, y). We use the technique to generate gradient maps of a photodiode array and the emitting surface of a biased light emitting diode. Two different semiconductor materials could be distinguished easily from their dissimilar reflectance spectra.

Unfortuanately I know when something is too good to be true. I do know that I would not need to get my stomach muscles tightened and I do agree with his statement on that note. My sister had a mommy makeover & we are the same size. She got a regular tummy tuck all he did was tighten her up and give her a new belly button. The problem is... I am worried about how high the scar will be, hers is so high and the dr. told her it was low. What are my options on minimal scarring and low as possible?
A Doctor Told Me That I Could Get a Way with Liposuction Instead of a Tummy Tuck? (photo)
Doctor Answers 20
From your photographs, you definitely need a tummy tuck since there is excess skin above the umbilicus. There are 2 components to a tummy tuck. One is removal of the excess skin and second is tightening underlying fascia. Fascia is the support layer that holds your abdomen flat when your stomach muscles are not contracting. The use of mesh in tummy tuck results in weight loss and maintenance of the reduction of weight. I would not recommend liposuction but do recommend an abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement. The incisions are placed horizontal, low, are hidden by your underwear and fade in time.
Best of Luck,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

You are a good candidate for a tummy tuck. The scar from a tummy tuck is pretty long, but it gradually fades over several months. Don't waste your time with lipo; you won't get much improvement/
Your photos would indicate that a tummy tuck would be your best procedure as there appears to be fairly significant laxity of the underlying muscles as well as redundant skin overlying. Your concerns about scar position are very valid. This is a point to discuss with your plastic surgeon and have him/her show you where they anticipate the final scar to be.
You might also like...
Based solely upon your photos it looks like you have a lot of loose skin and could benefit from a tummy tuck. Liposuction will not remove the loose skin and weak muscles. The scar can usually be placed pretty low.
Just from your pictures a tummy tuck is the obvious answer, be sure your doctor is a board certified plastic surgeon, many "cosmetic surgeons" only perform lipo suction and way over promise laser lipo results. I perform laser lipo on a regular basis and while it does offers some improved skin tightening, it does not take the place of a Tummy Tuck. With a mini tummy you could get your scar quite low, good luck!
I dont think Lipo would give you what you want...Your tummy wall is stretched out and your skin is loose...That has "Tummy Tuck" written all over it!!! Unless you are never planning on wearing a bikini, you really do need your tummy tightened and even then, it doesn't seem like you have that much fat anyway....
The photos seem to strongly suggest that you would most benefit from a tummy-tuck. The photos also suggest that the incision can probably be quite low. But the final decision can only be made by an actual physical examination by a Board Certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
Web reference: http://drlefkovits.com
You have excess skin and rectus diastesis. Your standing straight shows the bulging of the abdomen due to muscle separation and bent forward shows the excess skin. Liposuction is to suck the fat and your issue is not excess fat. The position of the scar can be low based on the patients anatomy. you would benefit from mini tuck with floating the belly button. Please check my web site for a patient similar to you.
Despite the hype about laser lipo such as smart lipo tightening skin, it doesn't do nearly enough to make a significant difference when the skin is loose after pregnancy or weight loss in the vast majority of cases. It is important to have a thorough discussion about scar placement though. I believe that the scar can be lower when progressive tension sutures are used.

Hi everyone I have created my websites using graphics from webgraphic creator & I would love some honest feedback if you wouldn't mind, in the near future I would love to build my websites using more graphics than I have already there, but, if you think that too much is not good, I'd love you to let me know. Thanks Dale O ps, here's the weby's http://www.lookreadlearn.com http://www.diy-ceiling-wall-texture.com
I think a person can use as many graphics as they like but its always good when they are relevant to whats going on with the web page. I see a lot of people who have small personal sites put any animated jumping around graphic they see on their site cause it amuses them. You have to keep graphics on your type of site limited down to being related with the business rather than what you find interesting. The better question is what your audience will find interesting rather than yourself. So far it seems your graphics are tuned in with your website. Alot of information on your sites so my apologies if I did not read it all. Though I feel your websites meet the point of what you are trying to sell I think you may want to look into a more condensed way to display your site. As much information viewable (yet easy on the eyes) with little scrolling as possible. This will give your sites a better business feel and make future consumers more likely to feel comfortable buying from you. Perhaps you can cut down on some information and put it on a separate page and just include a text link for site viewers to read that info if they need to. I hope I made some sense and keeping in mind this is all just my opinion. One thing to always ask yourself is look at your sales page and ask yourself if you would buy something from it. If you are not comfortable with it then make changes till you feel it has a professional nature. However many people use the style of sales page your are doing and it works but to me it seems like it needs some sort of template around it to present the information. Now the Look read and learn site is more appealing to me because the layout is easier to pay attention to. Now let me give an example of what I mean by the information being presented in a template format. I sell a little piece of software on my website called Vendomatic. Now I am in no way pointing you to a product to buy but I want you to see the screen shot for the product. In the screen shot scroll down towards the bottom where you will see the type of sales pages the software creates. Notice it is in a template and is nicely readable. I think that is the type of thing your ceiling website needs. Perhaps not the exact way as the screen shot but something similar. Easy to read and looks pro. http://www.cheaptodownload.com/screenshots/vendomatic.htm Again I hope I made some sense. P.S. The numerous white line breaks in those screenshots are just spaces between each image.
Wicked, thank you for your input. And I think you are quite right, the sample that you pointed me to, (the layout etc from your link:) is I think much easier to navigate & looks basically neater. I have never had any feedback on what & how my websites feel & look like to other users (I just carried on & done what I think looks good) but with your comments they are helpful, so thanks. I intend to create a new layout very shortly & will be checking out your software. Again, thanks & very much appreciated. Dale O
Well again the object was not to point you to the software but you are of course free to check it out. If I am to be entirely helpful then search the net for "Sales page generators" and see what fits you.
Hi, I don't chime in too often but after looking at your site i can tell you're just learning web development. I would recommend picking up some online tutorials on developing in css with table-less design. You'll be able to do some really cool things plus you won't be inhibited by the restrictions of tabled layouts. The best way to learn is to download templates and start playing around with the code. See what it does and how it affects the page. If you're using Dreamweaver you'll have no problem seeing changes instantly. Other wysiwyg editors will work as well. Any questions let me know. Thanks, Ryan (a.k.a. homesight)

Candidates who will require H-1B sponsorship and are subject to the cap cannot commence employment in H-1B status until October 1, 2013; employers should begin planning for the 2014 fiscal year.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced that the 2013 fiscal year H-1B cap has been reached and that all cap-subject H-1B petitions received on or after June 12, 2012, will be rejected. The 20,000 H-1B cap for holders of advanced U.S. degrees was reached on June 7, 2012.
H-1B petitions filed for those who have previously held H-1B status in the last six years, including requests for an extension of stay or a change of employer, are not subject to the cap. Petitions for those employed at an institution of higher education or a related or affiliated nonprofit entity, or at a nonprofit research organization or governmental research organization, are also exempt from the annual cap. H-1B1 visa numbers are still available for nationals of Chile and Singapore.
USCIS will begin accepting H-1B petitions for its 2014 fiscal year on April 1, 2013, for employment commencing on October 1, 2013 or later.

2012 Spillover Report
Date: | July 9, 2012 |
Electronic Access: | Full Text |
Summary:Spillover reports examine the external effects of domestic policies in five systemic economies (S5), comprising China, the Euro Area, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The report aims to provide an added perspective to the policy line developed in the Article IV discussions with these entities and an input into the Fund's broader multilateral surveillance. Topics for this report were chosen based on consultations with officials from the S5 and selected emerging markets (Brazil, the Czech Republic, India, Korea, Mexico, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, and Turkey). Each participant was asked about policy concerns and spillovers from the S5. To facilitate candor, the report does not attribute views regarding partner countries. Rather than try to capture the full range of spillovers, this report builds on last year's findings, focusing on the forward-looking issues raised by partners and on S5 officials' reactions. |

The U.S. is working with the Libyan opposition leaders on a post-Qadhafi scenario in the North African country, the White House has said. Meanwhile, U.S. President Barack Obama told Congressional leaders that there are no plans to use the U.S. military to assassinate Muammar Qadhafi.
"We are working in a variety of ways to reach out to the opposition in Libya, to advise them on what a post-Qadhafi Libya would best look like," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters on Friday.
"We believe that the government which is most responsive to the aspirations and grievances of its people will be the most successful," he said.
Mr. Carney said consultations with the Libyan opposition are part of the U.S. policy, but at the same time categorically ruled out sending ground troops to Libya.
Defending the decision to start military operations early, he said it was taken to protect the people of the country. "Colonel Qadhafi's forces were about to move on Benghazi and wreak horrible damage and kill many, many Libyans, had the President waited for Congress to come back, had he taken more time to debate and consult on this issue, I think there's very little doubt that Benghazi would have fallen and that many people would have died," he said.
"And the President believes very strongly that he made the right decision," Mr. Carney said.
Mr. Carney reiterated America's position that Mr. Qadhafi needs to leave as he is no longer legitimate adding that the "Libyan leader is menacing his own people, using violence against his own people."
The military mission that is described in Security Council Resolution 1973 goes beyond just the no-fly zone and it includes the civilian protection piece that enables the coalition to do more to protect civilians than the no-fly zone allowed in northern Iraq, he said.
"We are engaged in a host of actions, unilaterally and multilaterally, that are designed to put pressure on Qadhafi, to put pressure on those around him, with the aim that he will take the decision or those around him will take the decision that he has to go," Mr. Carney said.
"We don't have crystal balls here and I can't predict what the future will bring but we will stay focused on those measures even as the military mission reaches benchmarks of success and as the transfer occurs we will continue with those tools that we have to put pressure on Qadhafi and his regime," he said.
No plans to kill Qadhafi: Obama
President Barack Obama briefed top Congressional leaders about his policy on Libya during which he said there were no plans to use the military to assassinate Mr. Qadhafi.
"The President and his team provided an update on accomplishments to date, including the full transfer of enforcement of the 'no-fly' zone to NATO, and yesterday's unanimous agreement among NATO allies to direct planning for NATO to assume command and control of the civilian protection component in accordance with UNSCR 1973," the White House said in a statement after the meeting.
Mr. Obama answered multiple questions from the Members of Congress, the White House said, adding that the discussion lasted approximately one hour. Mr. Obama told the lawmakers that there are no plans to use U.S. military to assassinate the Libyan leader despite his administration's policy of seeking regime change in the North African country, the Politico reported.
The hastily arranged briefing came amid fierce criticism from Capitol Hill of the President's decision to strike Libya's defences. "There was a discussion of how we have other ways of regime change," Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee told Politico. "It's not our role to do anything at this point from a kinetic point of view. It is our goal for regime change, but we're not going to do it from a kinetic point of view," he said.
More than 20 top U.S. lawmakers were present at the White House briefing.
"The Speaker appreciates the update today, but still believes much more needs to be done by the administration to provide clarity, particularly to the American people, on the military objective in Libya, America's role, and how it is consistent with US policy goals," House Speaker John Boehner's spokesman Michael Steel said.

The Malik Report
Red Wings GM Ken Holland: the Wings will be 'active,' hope to make big additions via free agency
by George Malik on 06/23/12 at 07:07 PM ET
Comments (15)
Updated 2x at 9:16 PM: If the Red Wings' haul of prospects picked during the latter round of the 2012 Draft left you feeling less than enthused as the Wings approach free agency, especially given the moves made by Pittsburgh to supposedly make runs at "natural fits" in Ryan Suter and Zach Parise, well…
GM Ken Holland wants you to know that Detroit will be very active and very aggressive on July 1st, as he told the Associated Press's Larry Lage:
"We're going to be active and very involved in free agency because we have cap space and holes we'd like to fill," Holland said. "But to be successful, you have to draft and develop guys."
While the [Wings'] draft picks will have time to develop, Detroit will need some free agents to attempt to make up for the departures of defencemen Nicklas Lidstrom and Brad Stuart along with the potential loss of 50-point forward Jiri Hudler in free agency. The Red Wings have about $20 million in cap space and might be willing to use most of that to sign New Jersey Devils forward Zach Parise and Nashville Predators defenceman Ryan Suter if they aren't re-signed by their teams and are available on the market July 1. Holland can't talk about players he's targeting, but knows the franchise will be in the spotlight when free agency begins."Everybody looks at the Red Wings and expects big splashes," he said. "We have a lot of pieces in place and I like our team, but we need to make two or three moves through free agency or trades."
Detroit didn't plan to have Stuart back on the blue line next season because he wanted to live closer to his family in California, leading to the Red Wings trading the potential free agent to San Jose earlier this month. The franchise was hoping Lidstrom would return for a 21st season until the day he officially announced his retirement last month. The four-time Stanley Cup champion, seven-time Norris Trophy winner and captain simply can't be replaced.
Suter, though, would go a long way toward bolstering the team's depleted defence. The 26-year-old All-Star has spent his seven-season career with the Predators.
The 27-year-old Parise would provide a big boost up front, where Detroit might be without Hudler, who might want to see what he can get on the open market instead of settling for what the Red Wings are offering. Parise would give Detroit a third star forward to go along with Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg. He has been with the Devils during each of his seven seasons in the league, helping them reach the Stanley Cup finals with 15 points in 24 post-season games after scoring 31 goals during the regular season.
Detroit decided to keep 25-year-old forward Darren Helm with an $8.5 million, four-year contract in the hopes that he will develop from a role player to a standout. The Red Wings are also counting on younger players such as defenceman Brendan Smith and forward Gustav Nyquist to play key roles this season.
"There's always talk about us being old, but we're getting younger," Holland said. "We've got a 27-year-old goalie in Jimmy Howard, entering his prime. Niklas Kronwall is 31 and the rest of our defencemen are in their 20s. And if we have a healthy Dan Cleary, I really like us up front with high-octane guys like Zetterberg and Datsyuk. We may not have the star power we've had the last 10 years, but I don't think the sky is falling for the Detroit Red Wings."
Update: Well here's an interesting dose of perspective on Parise and Suter from ESPN's Pierre LeBrun (via Paul as usual):
The question now is not which teams will bid on Zach Parise come July 1, but rather which teams won't? The latter might be a shorter list.
Detroit, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Minnesota and several other clubs will chase this year's No. 1 UFA forward. But don't forget New Jersey. The Devils still have a shot at retaining their star captain.
"We'll certainly do anything that can be done," Devils GM Lou Lamoriello told ESPN.com Saturday. "It's mutual on both sides. We have to find a way."
Lamoriello chose not to trade away Parise's rights this weekend, which is par for the course. He never deals away UFA rights. Nor did any team approach him this weekend asking about the rights.
"No, because they know better," smiled Lamoriello.
The Red Wings, meanwhile, are expected be major players July 1—for both Parise and Ryan Suter. Easier said than done, given the competition and interest. Either way, an interesting time for the Wings in the post-Nicklas Lidstrom world.
"We're transitioning from a different group of Red Wings to a young group of Red Wings," Wings GM Ken Holland told ESPN.com Saturday. "That's why we signed Darren Helm, we think he's coming into his prime years. But as we get into July 1, we're obviously going to explore the market just as we have every year. We've got more cap space, but I don't know, we'll see what happens."
Update #2: More from Holland from the Detroit News's Ted Kulfan:
"Teams are positioning themselves with July 1 approaching," Wings general manager Ken Holland said. "But it's a process. There may have been a lot of talk but not a whole lot of trades."
[Jordan] Staal was sent to Carolina for young forward Brandon Sutter, the No. 8 overall pick Friday, and a prospect in the Hurricanes organization. It would have been difficult for the Wings, who weren't the mix for Staal, to match the Hurricanes' offer, with the Wings having no first-round pick.
"You have to have a fit," Holland said.
The Pittsburgh trade could impact the Wings on July 1, when they — and many other teams — likely go after Ryan Suter, the Nashville defenseman who is expected to be the biggest name among available defenseman. The Penguins cleared out considerable cap space with the trading of Staal and defenseman Zbynek Michalek (to Phoenix), and are expected to make a run at Suter or maybe Zach Parise, the New Jersey forward who could be the most sought after player if he pursues free agency.
Pittsburgh general manager Ray Shero drafted Suter when Shero was an assistant general manager in Nashville. The Penguins feel Suter's talents would blend nicely onto a Penguins roster that is led by Hart Trophy-winning Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby.
The Wings, along with Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, were rumored to be discussing the availability of Phoenix defenseman Keith Yandle, 25, an offensive defenseman who has is entering the prime of years of his career. But the asking price from the Coyotes was rumored to be understably large and Phoenix reportedly wasn't serious in dealing Yandle.
"We have a lot of cap space (over $20 million) and we're looking to be aggressive on July 1," Holland said. "I talked with other teams and it doesn't mean that somewhere down the line we can't have further discussions. But right now, our main focus is on July 1."

or trade… i'm also hearing we're seriously in the bidding for Nash which blows my mind… here's hoping we get parise and don't have to trade shit.
Posted by HockeytownOverhaul on 06/23/12 at 07:11 PM ET
Yep. Holland said, "or trades." That really jumped out at me too. And it may not be just Nash he is referring to. Who the hell knows what Ken will pull off.
I hate this time of year. But it's pretty damned fascinating too, eh?
Posted by MsRedWinger from the State where Tigers roam in the Spring on 06/23/12 at 07:40 PM ET
"or trades" refers to desperation moves he may have to make if he can't make a big enough impact signing free agents. Its an option he probably doesn't want to use but its there.
Columbus wants 3 roster players PLUS a draft pick for Nash. Any GM willing to make that deal needs to be fired immediately.
Granted he's been stuck on a bad team his entire career with little to no support around him but ... why am I not impressed with Nash ??
I'd stay away .. faaaaar away from Nash.

Posted by HockeytownOverhaul on 06/23/12 at 05:11 PM ET
I don't like Nash's game, but that's actually sort of smart. He's got hands and size, Nash's problems are in the decisions he makes on the ice (hogs the puck, shoots too much, dogs it on the backcheck a little). In other words, he's got bad habits.
What he isn't, imo, is too old to unlearn these bad habits. With Babcock in his ear, and Datsyuk's impeccable decision-making in his eye…the expected captain in Zetterberg working harder than anybody on the Blue Jackets ever has in practice…I can see Nash finally turning into the player he should already be.
Posted by larry from pitt on 06/23/12 at 08:25 PM ET
That would be Eklund who claims that the Wings are in the Nash sweepstakes, and it's horseshit.
The Rangers can't get a deal done for Nash because Scott Howson is asking for AT LEAST a top-line forward, a top-pair defenseman, 2 or 3 top prospects AND multiple first-round picks, if not that 3rd roster player, all for one 80 point-scorer.
He would ask for even more from the Red Wings because they're the Blue Jackets' self-styled "arch-rivals," and there is no need to trade Filppula's 60 points, Kronwall's 40 points, Nyquist, Smith and Jarnkrok for one frickin' guy. That's stupid.
All I've heard from Columbus is that Nash is royally pissed off at the Blue Jackets—just as Bobby Ryan has finally said the equivalent of "trade me right *#$%@& now"—but the price is so astronomical that Howson is betting on teams who lose out on Parise, Suter, Semin, Wideman, Carle, etc. circling back to him and then giving him a barn full of horses for a horse.
The Wings have a better chance of simply rolling the UFA dice and selling their "program" and especially their money to free agents than they do to get anywhere near Nash.
Posted by George Malik from South Lyon, MI on 06/23/12 at 08:40 PM ET
I don't want Nash for the Red Wings, but what Howson is doing could be the smartest thing he's done as the CBus GM. You want out, Nash? Fine, but I'm not going to deal you till I get a deal I like.
Waiting out the first few days of free agency could get him close to what he wants from a team that missed the target on the UFAs they were looking for.
I just hope it isn't Detroit.

"He loves to score goals," Babcock said
Well they're really high on the next Euro not named fabian ville ilari brunnerstrom. Do I understand Babs right that he thinks he can play Top 6 right now? That's a shocker, I need to slap myself and read that again, and then slap myself again just for the heck of it.

How about waiting till there are actually moves to make that are going to actually affect the Detroit Red Wings and not the Grand Rapids Griffins before bitching about what moves they're making.

Some people just don't like the tried and true Detroit fan model of wait, sit back and criticize after the fact. They're eager to get their licks in before anything even happens.
Posted by calquake on 06/23/12 at 09:39 PM ET
maybe it's just me, but I thought the comment about Babs and the top 6 were more of a "I can't believe my ears, they're trying to bring in new blood instead of slotting Cleary top 6 again" not a fatalistic thing.. I'm not real sure what fatalistic statements you were talking about.. but god forbid people exchange dialogue about something you post and trying to hypothesize about what it could mean.. given all the backroom talks that go on it's not unreasonable for us to think there's something already in mind when they make a statement, if not an outright bold faced lie.. so please wipe the sand out of your vagina about fan speculation. Half the fuchin' fun of being a fan.

Spot on Fluff. Last time we were in need of a top notch defenseman Kenny got us Raffy on a July 1st in2007. Somethings going to happpen next Sunday that I believe we all will rejoice.
The logjam of 4th liners has to be fixed and this is where the trades come in. In Kenny we still trust.

text: The section on operant conditioning really got me thinking because its really interesting to me how we can extrapolate these experiments with animals into understanding how operant conditioning can be applied to human behaviors. Before I started reading the chapter I would have been sure that a fixed ratio schedule would be more beneficial in changing some ones behavior. Its just intuitive to me that if one is knowingly getting a reward after a fixed number positive behaviors they would be more likely to continue those good behaviors. It turns out that conditioning is more effective on a variable ratio schedule where reinforcement is given the same amount on average, but varies randomly. This got me to thinking about our day-to-day relationships, whether it is with friends or our girlfriends/boyfriends. I've always been taught good morals that were instilled in my through my parents, that should be repeated continuously with no variation (basically a fixed ratio schedule). However, it always was interesting and irked me how in romantic relationships men and women seemingly were attracted to people who treated them poorly a high percentage of the time over those who treat someone better with more consistency. Then I realized that this is explained well with the variable ratio schedule. If treating your partner/friend well is a stimulus that keeps someone interested in a relationship, then according to the variable ratio schedule its not optimal to be nice consistently. When this variable schedule of good behavior is implemented it's in the partners best interest to stick around longer to ensure that a reward is received (good behavior from ones partner) through droughts of good behavior. In relationships with friends or with partners, my morals suggest to be nice to others no matter what consistently. This contrasts with the optimal conditioning suggested in the book (variable ratio schedule), which is scientifically more effective in emitting a beneficial response. I'm at a crossroads based on the values my parents have taught me, which seem correct, and what is deemed optimal conditioning.

People are more trusting as they age, which, in turn, carries a number of benefits for their well-being, according to research from UB.
Two UB engineers discuss a study they did on imbalances in the NFL schedule and how the numbers add up for the 2015 NFL schedule.
UB's John Shook weighs in on a legal hearing athat will be held to determine whether two chimpanzees can be granted legal protection against unlawful imprisonment, just like human beings.
People aren't getting older and crankier, but instead are getting older and more trusting, according to a new study by researchers at UB.
Engineers at UB looked at NFL schedules from recent years and found a disparity among teams that played opponents coming off a bye week or Thursday night game.
Research by UB psychology professor Mark Seery shows that when we achieve self-clarity, our overall performance and happiness increases significantly.
A group from UB, inspired by the Bills' schedules, studied the best way to space out bye weeks and Thursday games.
UB will begin erecting steel this week for the new School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.
UB's expertise in advanced manufacturing gives it a good shot at becoming one of the 25 schools chosen, says Kemper Lewis, professor and chair of mechanical and aerospace engineering.
UB expert discusses what has made the technique so successful.

Thanksgiving Day Events at Walt Disney World
November 27, 2014
As Thanksgiving Day nears, chances are you've got turkey on your mind. It's estimated that guests consume more than 1.6 million turkey drumsticks every year at the Walt Disney World Resort and the Disneyland Resort - that's 2.5 million pounds of turkey. So where do you find turkey and other traditional Thanksgiving foods at Walt Disney World?
Thanksgiving is a transitional time at Walt Disney World. There will still may be some nods to fall, but for the most part, Christmas is in full swing. The holiday events and decorations will have popped up all around the parks. Thanksgiving is acknowledged more with food than decor.
Many dining locations at Walt Disney World create special meals for guests who would like to share a holiday meal with their loved ones on Thanksgiving. Some locations offer a special Thanksgiving menu just for this day while other locations offer additional Thanksgiving specialties in addition to their regular menu.
Most venues will offer the special meal on Thanksgiving day alone. This is one holiday that is celebrated on the actual date and not for several days before and after.
If you are looking for the feel of Thanksgiving throughout the year, then look no further than Liberty Tree Tavern in Magic Kingdom. Every day for dinner, Liberty Tree Tavern offers turkey, stuffing, mashed potatos, and other meats and sides for dinner.
While Liberty Tree Tavern may be the first to come to mind for Thanksgiving, a large number of restaurants will also have special offerings. They may include:

Men's Basketball Drops AMCC Opener to Lake Erie
The Storm improve to 5-9 overall and 2-0 in the AMCC, while the Bobcats suffered their third straight loss and fell to 5-7 overall and 0-1 in the AMCC.
Frostburg State came out hot to start the game and built an 18-7 lead at the 12:38 mark. Sophomore Chris Vaughn (Manchester, Md./North Carroll) drained a pair of three-pointers and senior Ryan Grabill (Boonsboro, Md./Williamsport) hit another to help the Bobcats surge ahead.
However, Lake Erie came charging back and used a 13-4 run to close to within 22-20.
Grabill hit another three to give FSU a five-point edge, but Harris scored his team's next seven points to push the Storm in front for the first time, 27-26, with 5:57 left in the half.
Vaughn countered for the Bobcats, hitting a three-pointer and a pair of free throws to give FSU a 33-31 edge, but two baskets by Harris and a three-pointer by Johnson put Lake Erie ahead 38-33 at the break.
Johnson then sank two free throws and another three-pointer to help the Storm open a 50-42 advantage with 15:10 to play.
The Bobcats hung tough, closing to within 51-49 on Vaughn's fifth three-pointer of the afternoon, but Harris hit two more layups as Lake Erie pushed its lead to 57-51 at the 9:49 mark.
FSU made yet another run, using a 7-0 stretch to take a 58-57 edge with 7:34 left, but junior Trevor Replogle hit a basket moments later to give the Storm the lead for good.
Johnson scored 11 of his 23 points in the final 5:46 to help seal the win.
Vaughn led FSU with 20 points, while Grabill added 12 points, nine rebounds and five assists.
Senior Myro Small (Berlin, Md./Stephen Decatur) finished with 11 points and eight boards.
The Bobcats endured another tough shooting performance, hitting just 18-of-66 (27.3 percent) from the floor.
FSU returns to action Wednesday when it hosts Pitt-Greensburg in another AMCC contest at 8:00 pm.

Nathan Ready To Take His Chance Again
City Defender Wants To Play Coventry City defender Nathan Cameron is ready to take his chance again in City's first team.Speaking to the CT, Cameron, who started the season but lost his place said: "I went on just after their second goal after James had a strain in his back and I was just happy to get back out there after a fantastic start to the season for me."I have been waiting quite a long time and it's hard sitting on the bench and watching the boys sometimes because you just want to get out there, but I am involved again and it would nice to be included in the next couple of games and hopefully get a couple of starts."I wasn't in the squad for Leeds or the game before that but fortunately I was back for Forest and I just want to repay the manager's faith in me by putting in good performances for the team," said the academy graduate."James has been out a while and has had a tough time with injuries, so it has been hard for him and I think the gaffer wants to get him some games because we all know what a good player he is, and I just want to work alongside all the experienced pros here."I thought I did all right when I went on the other night. "I hit a couple of stray balls and in that situation when you are looking for a goal you just want to get the ball up to the front players as quick as possible."I tried to defend as well as I could and hopefully I can improve for the next game against Palace."I am not getting my hopes up too much but I would like to start the game, although I know the gaffer will check on James. "I want to play but it is up to the manager at the end of the day."Picture copyright of Covsupport News Service. Credit CNS/SB

75 Year old to Hyder, Alaska
View Single Post
Joined: Sep 2011
Location: Vancouver, BC, Canada
Oddometer: 3
Im 55 also, so thought I'd reply. I think this is a great trip. In 2010 i took my first long motorcycle trip on a 1997 BMWf650 and went from Vancouver over to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, then up to the North end of Vancouver Island to Port Hardy. In Port Hardy i caught a ferry north to Prince Rupert. This was a full day ferry ride and the price was about $250 for bike and rider, but well worth it. I called this trip the poor man's Alaska cruise. The scenery was fantastic.After overnighting in Prince Rupert I then caught another ferry to Haida Gwaii, previously know as Queen Charlotte Islands. This was my goal and I had a fantastic 5 days there riding gravel. I then returned to Prince Rupert anb headed south east to Vancouver on Highway 16. However, when i got to the junction of highway 37 north (Deese Lake / Stewart Cassiar Highway), i thought why not go to Alaska. I believe it is about 260 kms from Kitwanga Junction. On this highway i saw more bears that carsl let alone people. But the bears are fine and are not known to chase after bikes. This was certainly a highlight of this trip. Quite enjoyed my overnight in Hyder. Several wonderful glaciers. I highly recommend you take this trip. It was fantastic. I went in early August when you have the best chance for great weather. I would think that a trip to Hyder from Oregon could easily and comfortably be done in 8 to 10 days. Good luck and have fun. Pete

What is new?
April 25, 2015
April 25, 2015
Doreen Bloch is the Founder and CEO of the Poshly, an online personalized giveaway platform that seeks to bring together beauty lovers with their favorite beauty brands.
Founder: Doreen Bloch
Company: Poshly
Location: New York, NY
1. How I came up with the concept of Poshly.com:
I have a technology background and I also love fashion and beauty. During my summers in college I interned at Yahoo!, and during my semesters at UC Berkeley, I ran one of the nation's first collegiate fashion publications. It was just a matter of time before I found a way to marry my passions for both worlds.
Many of my female peers — all too often — spend hours searching for beauty products to complement their features or lifestyles and come up empty-handed. As a result of this challenge, I recognized a big opportunity to reduce those inefficiencies and help both beauty brands and consumers through a personalized giveaway, online platform.
Our goal is to help consumers answer the question: "What beauty products are best for me based on people like me?"
Not only will we help women connect with the right brands, but we plan to help companies better target their free sampling initiatives. Often, companies aren't aware of the consumer on the receiving end of their samples. With Poshly, companies in the beauty industry can provide targeted samples to consumers, thereby increasing their chance of conversions.
2. Ambition:
To build the next great Internet platform, that helps beauty consumers find the right beauty product amongst a dizzying array of options. I hope to build Poshly into an exceptional company with a happy, successful team and a wonderful community of fulfilled customers.
Our motto is to "Live Poshly." This saying represents the Poshly's brand, and influences all that I do.
3. One day I hope to:
Write more books about startups. Before founding Poshly, I wrote the first edition of The Coolest Startups in America. Writing a book was an incredible experience, and I hope to write more in the future. The opportunity to be a conduit for knowledge by distilling the teachings of many experts into one guide has been remarkably rewarding.

Night Watch: Review @ Eurogamer
by Dhruin, 2006-09-13 02:18:00
Eurogamer's review of Night Watch seems to have left the poor writer in need of psychiatric care - here's the intro:Right, that's it, no more game-playing for me. From now on I'm just going to read optimistic previews and get my pleasure from anticipation. If I'd done this with Night Watch then the following paragraphs would have been blissfully free of nasty, soul-rotting whinge-words; no 'ill-conceived', no 'woeful', no 'disappointing', no 'hopeless', no 'dire'. The sum-total of Global Negativity wouldn't have been increased by 0.00000000000026%; right now I'd be a fractionally less cynical, less suspicious gamer.

WEATHER BLOG: Warming Trend
As we continue to snap out of the bitterly cold air that has been gripping the entire region for more than two days, most places are either partly or mostly sunny.
WEATHER BLOG: Happy Halloween
The day is getting off to a rather mild start, but we are also looking at plenty of clouds and patchy fog for a while. The temperature should reach the lower 70s Thursday afternoon, and there will probably be a stray, passing shower before the day is through.
WEATHER BLOG: Rain, Rain Go Away
Rain is wrapping around our coastal low pressure system and it is going to continue to spin off of the Carolina Coast during the next 24-36 hours.
WEATHER BLOG: Mild Weekend
There is still some light snow currently falling in much of Delaware. The steady stuff should not get further west than that but there could be a few spotty rain or snow showers elsewhere.
WEATHER BLOG: Improvement
A front has managed to settle into the mid-Atlantic region early Monday morning.
WEATHER BLOG: Another Crazy Night
Marylanders should expect the storms and heat to continue throughout the week.
WEATHER BLOG: Wonderful!
We're still very optimistic about the weather around here over the next few days, with a good deal of sunshine expected during each of the next three. Temperatures Thursday afternoon and again Friday will be mostly in the middle and upper 70s.
BLOG: Cold And Clear
While December may have some "tricks up its sleeve" in the long run, it certainly doesn't look like there will be much eventful weather to talk about here over the next three or four days.
BLOG: Warm Start
While temperatures did exceed our expectations Monday, the sky cover and lack of any rain were aspects of the forecast that were still pretty much "on target." Tuesday, temperatures will probably still climb into the 60s, even despite plenty of clouds, as well as some fog and a bit of drizzle.
BLOG: Holiday Week Ahead
A decent day upcoming to conclude the weekend, but after that the pattern becomes more unsettled with several shots at rainfall. High pressure along the East Coast will give way overnight as a cold front approaches from the northwest. Any breaks in the clouds this early will fill later with a few showers pushing in during the overnight hours.
BLOG: Pleasant Weekend
High pressure that has moved out into the Atlantic will bring a milder southwesterly flow today and tomorrow. The southwesterly flow around the high is a dry one today, and although we do expect patchy mid and high level clouds at times, still a good deal of sunshine and a pretty nice day for this time of year.
BLOG: Chilly And Nice
Today is getting off to a brisk and colder start, but will also be offering more sunshine than we've seen almost any day so far this week.
