EDITOR: Doubling can be amazing. In 1965, Intel co-founder, Gordon Moore, predicted that the number of transistors on integrated circuits would double approximately every two years. His prediction has proven to be accurate and is known as Moore's Law.
Computer processing speed, memory capacity, and even the number of pixels in digital cameras have all followed Moore's Law. The result is a smartphone in your pocket or a tablet in your briefcase with more computing power than a desktop PC had in 1990 and for considerably less money.
If America devoted the same amount of effort to solar collectors and batteries, could we double their efficiency every two years? If so, where would solar and battery technology be in 25 years?
In 25 years, would you (or your children or grandchildren) rather live in a world where solar collectors and batteries were far more efficient than they are today or a world where finding, extracting, transporting and burning coal, oil and other carbon-based fuel were more efficient?
In 25 years, would you like to own a solar collector you could hang outside your kitchen window that cost $2,500 and provided enough energy to light, heat and cool your house and power your plug-in electric car? Or would you prefer to still be burning coal, propane, gasoline, and natural gas?
Which future - renewables or carbon-based fuels - appeals most to you?
We seem to be doubling down on a losing bet on carbon. And the stakes may just be human life on this planet.

Provenance of Decisions in Emergency Response Environments

Mitigating the devastating ramifications of major disasters requires emergency workers to respond in a maximally efficient way. Information systems can improve their efficiency by organizing their efforts and automating many of their decisions. However, absence of documenting how decisions were made by the system prevents decisions from being reviewed to check the reasons for their making or their compliance with policies. We apply the concept of provenance to decision making in emergency response situations and use the Open Provenance Model to express provenance produced in RoboCup Rescue Simulation. We produce provenance DAGs using a novel OPM profile that conceptualizes decisions in the context of emergency response. Finally, we traverse the OPM DAGs to answer some provenance questions about those decisions.

The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) was founded by Thomas Rhodes Armitage, a successful doctor who suffered from eyesight problems. In 1868 Dr Armitage founded an organisation known as the British and Foreign Society for Improving Embossed Literature for the Blind. This later became the British and Foreign Blind Association. In 1875 Her Majesty Queen Victoria became the organisation's first patron. The organisation received a Royal Charter in 1948, and changed its name to Royal National Institute for the Blind in 1953. In 2002, RNIB membership was introduced and the organisation's name changed to Royal National Institute of the Blind. In June 2007 the organisation changed its name again, to Royal National Institute of Blind People. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: Royal National Institute of Blind People)

Premise Registration Essential to Avian Influenza Response
Since the first official case of H5N2 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) was discovered here in Wisconsin last week, the Wisconsin Livestock Identification Consortium (WLIC) has been keeping its premises registration database in top condition for emergency response` purposes. The current outbreak serves as a reminder to poultry owners to register your premises if you haven't already done so or renew your current registration.
"Many may not realize how important this system is to controlling an animal disease threat in Wisconsin such as this one," said Alan Clark, WLIC's executive director. This system was built to house the information for premises registration on a private and secure database as one way to maintain a strong agriculture industry in Wisconsin. Registration is free and can be completed online at www.wiid.org or by phone at 888-808-1910.
When the first facility in Jefferson County was identified, WLIC provided the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection's (DATCP) Division of Animal Health with a list of poultry owners located within the quarantine and surveillance zones. Using this information, DATCP was able to contact all the poultry owners and arrange to test their birds for the virus. The Consortium is also answering calls from producers and keeping a close eye on the HPAI disease response.
"Wisconsin's mandatory premises registration system has been invaluable to protecting the livestock industry in Wisconsin, not only in this case, but also with last year's outbreak of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PEDv)," Clark said.
State and local health officials have been able to access premise registration information to aid in decreasing the time required to manage the diseases, and restore Wisconsin's livestock markets. When spring weigh-ins were cancelled last year for swine heading to county fairs, WLIC also instituted a DNA program to maintain individual identity on exhibition pigs.
The mantra at WLIC has always been "Our Greatest Asset is the Cooperation of Many", which still holds true. By working together, we can protect market access and maintain our state's disease-free status.

Statistical significance of the association between whistler-mode chorus enhancements and enhanced convection periods during high-speed streams
Hwang, J.A.; Lee, D.-Y.; Lyons, L.R.; Smith, A.J.; Zou, S.; Min, K.W.; Kim, K.-H.; Moon, Y.-J.; Park, Y.D.. 2007 Statistical significance of the association between whistler-mode chorus enhancements and enhanced convection periods during high-speed streams. Journal of Geophysical Research, 112 (A9), A09213. 10, pp. 10.1029/2007JA012388
Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract/Summary
During high-speed solar wind streams, substorms occur repetitively and relativistic electron fluxes enhance significantly. It has recently been proposed that enhanced dawnside chorus waves lead to the energization of the relativistic electrons and that they are associated with the periods of enhanced convection that precede substorm expansions, rather than with the expansions themselves. In this paper, we have evaluated the statistical significance of this association using a total of 657 substorms during high-speed solar wind streams observed by the ACE spacecraft and whistler-mode chorus waves observed from the VLF/ELF Logger Experiment (VELOX) at Halley station, Antarctica. We find that similar to 66% of the substorm events identified at 0400-1400 MLT show the association with the chorus enhancement that starts to increase similar to 35 min, on average, prior to substorm onsets and remains elevated until declining back to near the preenhancement level in similar to 16 min, on average, after substorm onsets. Our statistical results suggest that a large number of the chorus wave enhancements at dawn to postnoon local times occur during the enhanced convection period of the substorm growth phase. This is distinguished from the chorus wave enhancement near midnight that is caused by substorm-injected electrons after onsets. We find that similar to 59% of the events identified at 2200-0200 MLT show chorus enhancements that start on average similar to 6 min after substorm onsets and remain elevated for similar to 32 min on average.

Extra pair of eyes: Dr Vu sifting through the images provided by DigitalGlobe.
PETALING JAYA: Millions of netizens worldwide are looking through satellite-captured images of the Gulf of Thailand to try and locate missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.
Covering over 24,000 sq km of sea, the images provided by US-based satellite imagery company DigitalGlobe have drawn some two million people so far to find objects on its public map site Tomnod (www.tomnod.com).
Objects found by Tomnod users are tagged for scrutiny under four categories – oil markers, wreckage, rafts and miscellaneous.
"More than two million people have tagged some 645,000 features so far, making this the largest Tomnod campaign in history," a blog post on DigitalGlobe's website read.
On its Facebook page, DigitalGlobe said that more than 216,000 people have created online accounts to analyse Tomnod's images so far, though you don't have to do this if you want to join in the search.
Searching for objects in the Gulf of Thailand and the South China Sea is no easy work as local Tomnod user Lim Kok Tong, 35, found out.
"I spent nearly seven hours in total looking for something. It's tedious work and I haven't tagged anything yet," the freelance writer said.
Lim added that some of the images were obscured by clouds, making it difficult for him to look for the plane.
A CNN news report said Tomnod volunteers in November 2013 tagged over 60,000 objects of interest based on images in the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan in The Philippines. This information was then forwarded to emergency responders.
The MH370-specific search was launched on March 10.
Also sifting through the images was Associate Prof Dr Tuong-Thuy Vu, geospatial researcher at the School of Geography the University of Nottingham, Malaysia.
"It's actually very helpful when thousands of people work together to locate something," he said in a phone interview.
He said not much expertise was required and the more people involved, the higher the probability of finding what was needed.
He said the satellite images he was looking at were from early hours of the morning on Sunday, March 9.
To his knowledge, this would be the biggest crowdsourced effort for search and rescue to date.
Prior to this, he had also been involved in disaster recovery efforts for Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines in November last year.

How much is your starting wage?
I was just wondering because sometimes it seems like Alaska has the highest paid CNA's but I dont know. We start out at 15.46 where I work. I am just curious.
Yea that is true...I know that the higher ups sometimes love to work us short and they still think we can get everyone up before breakfast LOL. I really would like to see them work the floor and then tell us that we have to work short. Luckly our nurse now will help out if we need her help. She is a great nurse.
Quoting kaizynn:
Isn't that how it is in any job.. The peons get all the work and crappy pay.. And the higher ups (exp: vice presidents of companies, CEOs) get higher pay. Sometimes I feel that if you don't love working with people you are in the wrong profession..
michelle is the proud mother of:
Where I work now I make 14 an hour. But my first job started at 9 with a shift difference of .50 for p.m.s Now I work for a non profit, church own and run facility. It's great to not be working for a Corparation!!!!

References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in EnglishNone Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0394722531, Paperback)This pioneering study of the much-mythologized Southern belle offers the first serious look at the lives of white women and their harsh and restricted place in the slave society before the Civil War. Drawing on the diaries, letters, and memoirs of hundreds of planter wives and daughters, Clinton sets before us in vivid detail the daily life of the plantation mistress and her ambiguous intermediary position in the hierarchy between slave and master."The Plantation Mistress challenges and reinterprets a host of issues related to the Old South. The result is a book that forces us to rethink some of our basic assumptions about two peculiar institutions -- the slave plantation and the nineteenth-century family. It approaches a familiar subject from a new angle, and as a result, permanently alters our understanding of the Old South and women's place in it.

Nope, it's got to be V1 Black and whit. It is much more striking. Street sense always work better in mono for me, unless there is a really good reason for keeping the colour in IE it's the main theme of the shot. There are no really striking colours in this and the BW leaves one guessing what exactly is going on , plus the slightly tighter crop works. The colour for me looks as if it could be some sort of fashion shoot. unless that was the intention. Nice picture all the same....Have a good weekend

I would normally go for mono, but, this time v2 is the better has more appeal and impact with better detail

Ask iAN * Painting Francis
Having erotic spasms imagining the knochen & radioulnar joint What of the darlings of Gossip? and what of the sex... My idea of a warm blanket is Chaos in nature is just as natural as the birth of Walmarts covering the nation even if all the while it is breaking them down into pop art boxed units of pig shit* I make Art in a very small arena Most people spend their entire lives I begin another day If you really wanna know why i can't fall in love...just step inside of The relief of selling off a clunker Until then Impaled Did i ever tell you is a vulture. Art like Life was once the great distraction...today they have merged and become one This blurring face running out of time... that beat the blood
splintering sharp as they crash home through the bloated front door face
and exit the back of the skull
a solid silver brick speeding at free fall speed through moist & horizontal undercarriage...The
blood is now an illuminating aphrodisian bevvy...or similar to ink gone to work for the tongue...
Everyone who is Anyone needs...disciples...some are just more into bad speed
instead of fasting...
so it's like a slaughterhouse...
One man's tumors & thyroid nodules are another man's cherries and grapes
sex speaks to me through a language of charred black ribs with damnation running through me as persistent
as the pain of cracklung and the walls...made of thin and see through plastic never embrace the blood...just
drops it to the floor unfresh
like a stillborn... I hate it when humanity ask me to make a donation of teardrops,
I may be an ashtray, a bodybag or a glutton for sweet punishment but i am hardly
a mark to be swindled
a speeding car without breaks
in it's own version of the plague...it's a germ the people have longed to live with...
the blood
beats the blood
into blood into blood back
into blood
polishing something that two weeks after they've died
gets lobbed into
a dustbin
such a waste...you don't have to be a gardener to know that
good things come from cultivating dirt
flowers pressing up
through the grave
brushing the bones inside of my face
I carry on throughout the day mostly uninterested in
the blur of activity surrounding me...I am like a dead Greek God...just
waiting for the blood of some great golden 3 legged centurian to submit me
until i am broken over the brass
the dehydration keeps me fit
dreamless in sleep, i float loose as a leaf on the wind...until the next time
the reflection in the mirror strikes out and
bites me
square in the center of my face
an examination room and have a whiff of a cut open cadaver...
When it comes to love...I think i'll just carry on renting...
bones peeled through the shred machine's metal roller
and a wall of wine bottles crashing to the bricks as the
cool black basement quakes
release...and death as it does...tops all forms of release
restrain me
use your arm like a crowbar
and block my face
I swear...I go through knee-pads quicker than
children cut through chocolate
and I'd be rather proud
to die on my knees like a dog
it sure beats the soft tissue death of the man with his head in the clouds
tied into a series of knots
crunched in the center and bent like a tin of lager
cross armed
my life is the song of the crippled dancer with a pinched nerve
it's not a song two people fall in love to...it's more of a selfish number...
danced to alone with nobody else in the hall
like hari kari during a miscarriage
standing in the shadow wearing suicide shoes
that in my heart...my guardian angel
and the new great distraction is the cell phone...we live inside of it now more than we live inside of the world around us...we are at the zenith of our distraction level...and Government couldn't be more happy...the future is now and nobody will get in the way of what we want...and that is to be made sick. We beg for sickness and with every order comes an early death. Cherio*
The guantlet and range of emotions like holidays, seasons, temperatures and rearranged living room furniture...it's all going to bone
leaving no shadow
leaving no trace
and putting an end
to this
and the visons
behind it
into blood then
composed into a composition of decompostion
a single work
unto dust*

Historical Traveler Reviews Clift San Francisco Hotel
Charmed by Clift Hotel
I stayed at the Clift March 23-27, 2003, and loved this hotel. I received a great rate through Expedia, and was delighted to find a hotel that had interesting, funky decor, comfy rooms, and friendly staff. The food at the restaurant was excellent, and my somewhat offbeat requests of the concierge were met in a timely and professional manner. Oh, and did I mention the beds! Ultra comfortable, with great linens, fantastic pillows, and a cashmere throw perfect for TV watching. A few negatives were the noises from other rooms, and the small tubs in the bathrooms. The roomservice menu was fairly pricey, but the food delivered was interesting in presentation and delicious! I would recommend this hotel for any one under 50 (or over 50 and open minded), looking for more than the average chain hotel, but not quite up to Four Seasons stuffiness and price. Nice touches are the candles lit throughout the property each evening, and the romantic alcoves, perfect for a quiet conversation and glass of wine.
Awful stay @ Clift Hotel
The Clift hotel was AWFUL. On friday 3/13/03, I was awakened @ 3 AM to drunken moaning of a man. After he finished himself off, he started banging on my door inserting his key card. He passed out, falling into the door. I immediately phoned the front desk. Security arrived and assisted the nude man to his room. THey told me "go back to sleep and don't worry about this". One could except this is one stays @ a flea bag $30/night hotel. Certainly NOT @ a hotel of a higher quality (and price!) such as the Clift bills itself. THe day manager reported the drunken man was extremely apologetic. I did get 50% off the room rate that evening. THe day manager giggled while telling me "it does make for a good story". I do NOT think it is funny. Do NOT stay @ the Clift Hotel. The events of that night were unacceptable. THe cavalier attitude of the hotel management was even more unbelievable.
Only for one nite stands
3 nites Mar 11 -13,2003 . Rooms are danish modern with no drawers to put clothing items into. Beds great, Showers great. Baths small. Large rooms. Walls thin. Can hear folks in next room talking on phones and doing lots of things in bed! One of the doormen commented "We are in the entertainment business!" Lots of very young (20-30) crowd come to the bar for some "action". Great pick up place. Decor is dark and sound is loud! Not appealing to the over 40 crowd. Would not recommed to my friends.
Make a reservation across the street
The service at The Clift was as cold and icy as the color of the walls. No one smiled, no one had any information, no one offered to open the front door! The rooms & public areas are visually appealing, but the inner lobby area is very dark. It's supposed to be a hip place to stay, it's more like a neighborhood attraction. Book a cozy room for yourself into the Hotel Monaco next door they offer guests a goldfish in a bowl with more personality than the staff at the Clift. Pop in for a look, you'll be treated the same way as the guests...everyone will ignore you!
Oh Ian!
leave it to "hip" hotelier Ian Schrager to destroy a beautiful hotel that 4 Seasons unfortunately pulledo out of years ago...
Pretty people check you in barely able to say pronounce "concierge"...that i can deal with...
The decor is atrocious from the moment you "find" the door...Dracula would love this place...
It's a shame - cheap looking too...STAY AWAY...
Go to Compton Place or Ritz Carlton...
Loved the Clift
The Clift Hotel is an excellent boutique hotel. It was meant to be fun, hip, modern, and young. If you are from a small town (e.g. Nashville, Omaha) or even from the Suburbs, you will probably experience some culture shock, and not like it at all. If you are from a big city and a young professional from San Francisco (the actual city of San Francisco, not Oakland, not San Jose or San Mateo), New York (manhattan), Los Angeles (west LA area) , London (west end), Paris, Rome, Chicago (northside), Boston (beacon hill) and Miami. You will not only like it, but love the Clift Hotel. One last thing, the Redwood Room is an absolute San Francisco treasure and absolutly beautiful.
Tragically hip
I stayed there last week (2nd week in Oct. 2002). I have to say though it was quite neat looking in decor, it was a little overly trendy. From the lobby to the rooms, the halls and common areas are all dimly lite. I'm sure this is to create an atmosphere, but it was a little too dark for my taste. The rooms also have TERRIBLE noise isolation from room to room. There was about 12 of us that all had their own rooms and no one had anything good to say about that. You could hear everything from casual conversation to typical TV noise, etc... . For the price of the rooms I don't think that I've ever stayed at a place with that bad of "noise isolation". It does look quite cool, though.
Absolutely Fabulous!!
I stayed at The Clift in Sept '02 and thought the hotel was great. The service was friendly and accomodating.....no attitude what so ever! I must have come and go several times a day each time the valet had to get my car....always with a smile. The door guys and valets there are such cuties!!
Trendy Looks Don't Make a Great Hotel
Whoever designed the rooms at the Clift gave little thought to the comfort of the guests who pay to stay there. We recently stayed in a suite at the hotel for a week. O.K. - put a dang sign on the hotel so people can find it. Next, the lobby - so incredibly dark, that we kept bumping into the furniture and walls. The suite - large, but adorned with the most impracticle, uncomfortable furniture imaginable. We had two largish suitcases of clothes (we were here for a ten day stay)and when we tried to unpack, discovered that in its quest for the aesthetic, the hotel designer had failed to equip the room with any bureaus whatosever. We asked for a bureau to be sent to the room, the hotel obliged by sending 2 small plastic cubes the size of milk crates. We ended up stacking our clothes on top of the completely superfluous large dining room table for the rest of our stay. Service - pretty good -the staff was young, beautiful and polite - not particularly skilled at hotel service, but polite. It took three calls to get a bucket of ice to the room. The bathroom was ridiculously small for such a large room. The bed was comfortable and had nice linens (which the hotel will be glad to sell you).
Horrible Attitude! At the Clift
If you want to be treat rudely with the worst attitude ever - go to the Clift Hotel in San Francisco. The front door staff discriminate again who they will allow in the front doors. Payoffs when you pull up in front helps your admittance to the Redwood Room. If the front door guy feels like you are worthy. Skip it! There are plenty of other great places to spend your time and money, where you will be treated much better.

... back along Noriega Street to middle of Sunset where we grabbed our first coffee at xxxxxxx, nice coffee. Walked a bit further to the next bus stop and hopped on service 71 again to 19th Avenue where we changed to service 28. Travelled through Golden Gate Park, Presidio and General Douglas MacArthur Tunnel before arriving at Golden Gate Bridge. Viewed the spectacular piece of engineering from Fort Point. ...

This is really the last one!

He comes back and tells us if it makes us feel any better that all of United flights are down, the whole system. Well the passengers who need connecting flights really go crazy,...calling attendants, saying they need to get off the plane...I go to talk to Wendy (we weren't sitting together) and her seatmate gets his stuff ...

Title: | Numeracy and Medical Decision Making |
Author: | Anderson, Britta L. |
Abstract: | This dissertation explores the concept of numeracy, the ability to use and understand numbers, and its association with health and medical decision making. Four studies were conducted. The first study assessed physicians' statistical literacy in a sample of obstetrician-gynecologists. The second study found that high and low numerate individuals were affected differently by the order in which information was presented to them. The third study found that numeracy was not associated with body mass index, physical activity, or the medical outcomes survey short form twenty. The fourth study found that smokers were more numerate than never smokers when controlling for demographic variables, but not intelligence or memory, and that numeracy was associated with intelligence, memory, and need for cognition. Finally, in studies two through four, it was found that around 60% of each sample was grouped as high- or low-numerate by both objective and subjective numeracy scales. |

PITNEY BOWES TO TAKE HEALTH CARE STRIDES TO MARKET By Jeremy Smerd | ||
While the health care industry might seem an unusual business opportunity for a company that made its name selling postage meters, Pitney Bowes' approach highlights how an innovative health benefits team can take a problem, in this case, managing the cost and quality of employee health care, and turn it into a solution that not only reduces costs, but offers a potential source revenue for the company. | ||

The language immersion program in the Jefferson county school district is wrapping up its first year with huge success.
Story time at Jefferson Elementary is interactive, a chance for students to practice comprehension.
As the school year begins to wrap up, first graders are able to read, write and speak in sentences.
"I have to remind myself they're babies, they're six and seven and they're speaking a second language," said Liza Ricks, the Spanish immersion teacher.
Moms Sherri Beck and Erica Price say their kids are starting to use the language at home too.
"She'll rattle off sentences in Spanish, and we don't even know what it is, but she'll translate for us," said Beck
Price, a mother of four who moved to Rigby just so her son can be in the program says she's seen first hand how beneficial a second language is.
"With my husband speaking a second language and as he's traveled and as we've traveled we've noticed other kids being raised speaking for ethan one language and we really wanted that for our children and we found it would benefit them in the business world and just in their career and home life as they grew up," said Price.
Studies have shown learning a second language can help in other subjects. This year a reading assessment showed students in the Spanish immersion program performed 19 percent higher than students in traditional classrooms, and 10 percent high for math.
"They're taught math in Spanish but they're tested in English," said principal, Eric Jensen.
The program is so popular among parents, and now that test results prove it is academically successful, the school board has decided to add a fourth kindergarten Spanish immersion classroom next school year.
Registration is full for the Spanish immersion program for next school year, but Chinese immersion spots are available at South Fork Elementary.
The program in the Jefferson County School District is so popular, other districts in east Idaho have been reaching out to them about how to start the program in their area.
Spanish Immersion students outperform students in traditional classrooms in math and reading

As I mentioned in my previous post, I wanted to share a recipe using leftover Crème Fraîche from the Kale Soup. I don't really have any recipes on hand to use up Crème Fraîche, so on my way to drop off my children at schools I had asked my husband to search for a recipe (ahem, that's called a multi-tasking, right?). He then responded with this Blueberry Crème Fraîche Scones recipe.
Most blueberry scone recipes require some heavy cream or sour cream, but I'd never seen one that required Crème Fraîche before. I thought I should give it a try, so I did. They weren't professionally done because this was my very first attempt making homemade scones from scratch. But my children and I liked them and we had a nice snack time (tea time for me).
After my first trial, I bought a dough blender so I'm now better equipped and will experiment more to create the perfect scone recipe. These scones are delicious and the recipe is very easy to follow. If you have leftover Crème Fraîche like I did, try making some homemade scone for afternoon tea time or breakfast. Enjoy!

- 2 cups all purpose flour
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- 6 Tbsp. (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter
- 1 ½ cup blueberries (picture shows 2 cups, but I just needed 1 ½ cup)
- 1 egg plus 1 yolk
- 7.5 oz. crème fraîche
- 1½ tsp. vanilla extract
- Sugar (demerara/turbinado sugar) for sprinkling (I did not have it today)
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl to blend.
- Cut butter into small pieces.
- Add the butter in the bowl and rub in butter with fingertips until mixture resembles fine meal.
- Whisk eggs, crème fraîche and vanilla.
- Gently stir crème fraîche mixture into flour mixture (dough will be very moist).
- Add the blueberries and mix well.
- Turn dough out onto generously floured work surface. Divide dough in half. Press each half into 6-inch round about ½ inch thick. Cut each round into 6 wedges.
- Transfer wedges to baking sheet, spacing 1 inch apart. Generously sprinkle sugar on top.
- Bake scones until pale golden and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Serve scones warm or at room temperature.

CHAZY Chazy, forever proud of their fine athletes, can be even prouder now that the quaint little community is home to not one but two gold medalists.
Boys Soccer
You may recall that back in 2004, Nolan Ryan, son of Tim and Kathy, scored the goal that finally won the State Championship for the Chazy Eagles boys soccer team.
The Eagles took the state championship once again in 2005.
Nolan, whose family has always been into soccer, has made the Adirondack division team in the Empire State Games for the past two years running. Last year his team took bronze - but this year they made it all the way to win the gold.
We played really good, we all worked very hard for the gold medal, said Nolan, who plays striker forward.
Out of the four games his team played in the tournament, there were only four scores, he said.
It was just a really good competition.
Hes too modest, said his mother, Kathy.
She went on to give a recap of the tournament. The first team the Adirondack division played was Long Island, beating them 1-0. Next they took Hudson Valley by the same store, and with that win the Western division, qualifying them for the medal rounds.
We didnt score until the last six minutes of play, Nolan added.
Finally they had to face the New York City division.
We beat them in a shoot-out, said Mrs. Ryan.
Nolan explained that in that situation, 7 players from each team face the goalie 1 on 1; they have 5seconds to shoot the ball. A total of 7 shots scored, 4 of them by the Chazy team (though for technical purposes, the end score was 1-0); NYC took the Silver medal.
Nolan, a senior this fall, has already been contacted by college scouts from Plattsburgh State University, Oneida, and St. Lawrence County. While he is still unsure of where hell end up going, one thing is certain, I will play soccer in college, Nolan said.

Sacrococcygeal Teratoma / SCT is a tumor made up of tissues from the three primary layers of cells defined in embryos, or germ layers. Sacrococcygeal Teratoma / SCT appear in the lower back and buttocks. The tumors can grow at an unpredictable rate to very large dimensions and present both inside and outside the fetal pelvis. Some tumors are diagnosed in utero, others at birth.
The cause of Sacrococcygeal Teratoma / SCT is not known.
Though a rare condition (1 in 35,000-40,000 births), Sacrococcygeal Teratoma / SCT is one of the most common tumors in newborns. Females are four times more likely to be affected than males. Malignancies are more frequent in males.
Sacrococcygeal Teratoma / SCT is detected by ultrasound as a mass on the fetal buttocks associated with a uterus larger than it should be at a specific gestational age. The reason for this is often polyhydramnios caused by hyper-filtration of the kidneys due to the high output state these tumors cause. An extremely large Sacrococcygeal Teratoma / SCT can displace the pelvic or abdominal structures of the fetus. Some fetal tumors have been reported as large as 25 cm by 20 cm. Abnormalities of the nervous, cardiac, gastrointestinal, urogenital or musculoskeletal systems may be associated with Sacrococcygeal Teratoma.

Jensen Ackles is smart
His interview over at TVGuide shows that he knows and gets not only fan culture, but also, the whole business of viewing dynamics, etc.
Some good quotes:
TV Guide: There are Samoholics and Deaniacs out there. You each have your own coterie of fans, don't you?
Ackles: What's funny is the network always talks about how we skew to a younger audience, but at the events we go to, the ones who show up at the set are usually women ages 30 to 50. It's actually pretty cool.
TV Guide: What does it say that the CW put you up against Grey's, CSI, The Office and even Kitchen Nightmares?
Ackles: I understand the pairing of us and Smallville, the only show on the network we can really combo with. Yes, it sucks. It's very, very strong competition. They're all top-10 shows. The network's excuse for it is, "That's not your audience, it's an older audience." I disagree. The same age range watching those shows are tuning in to our show and buying the DVDs and watching them. It's hard being on a new network, a smaller network.
Sorry, Don. But there's room for both of you in my viewing schedule!

Blue Screen of Death and Perfect Optimizer
Then I found this site on the Internet:
Where you can download a "free" program to fix it. So I downloaded the "free program" and ran it. It said it fixed minor errors, but if I wanted to fix registry errors, I needed to pay. Came to about $68.
I ran it again. Two days later: BSOD.
I've run the program, called "Perfect Optimizer," when I log on. Today I ran it and it found—again—several hundred registry errors which it repaired. On a whim I ran it again. It again found 217 registry errors, though I had done nothing on the computer and wasn't on line.
I've sent them a couple of messages, which they haven't responded to.
So I conclude this is a rip off fake program. Any computer geeks with better info on the program, please comment.
12 comments:
wish you lived closer. My husband (who has some fairly explicit swear words himself) has fixed many computers (including those in our house) and been able to recover them from the BSOD.
The main issue is viruses from online sites; even ones that appear safe (I get some from MSN and CNN when i read the news about 1/week -- I've quit reading their sites).
My hubby recommends Avast (as opposed to Norton or McAfee) for a virus scanner. I have to say it alerts me when something is wrong and then i don't get the BSOD.
I'd be happy to pass on his email if you like...- AnonymousJune 28, 2010 at 1:51 AM
I feel fairly confident in recommending: download.com, majorgeeks.com or filehippo.com

The BEST way to stop your computer losses is to switch to Apple
computers. Visit a Retail Stores: http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/ and then compare. The difference between a PC and Apple is like night and day. Download Malwarebytes and Panda anti virus. (both free for trial versions) The virus/malware you have may stop you from reaching the download sites. In that case, you can download them to a thumb drive from another computer and then load them on the infected computer in safe mode.
http://www.pandasecurity.com/homeusers/downloads/evaluation/If you were a good Scot you would have built your own machine, and saved money.
Installed Ubuntu, and saved more money
Installed Open Office and saved still more money.
And did I mention all the TIME you would have saved.
What's more - if I can assemble (build is too strong a word, really) such a system, 'most anyone can!- AnonymousJune 29, 2010 at 9:24 AM
Bob, this is one of the reasons my nieces and their children have switched from PCs to Macs. PCs are great and do what they are supposed to, however, the OS especially XP has a terrible history for exploitation.
I agree with Tom Hall that Ubuntu would help. I am not proficient enough to maintain a Unix OS, with the exception of OS X. Apple has made it user friendly enough that even I can use it.
I don't have any Anti Virus on my Mac either at home or in the office. Will that eventually bite me in the butt? Probably, but until there is a virus in the wild that infects Macs I won't worry. Right now there are none. Trojans sure, but the best OS in the world can't protect me from stupid.
Good Luck and Semper Fi,
Jim H. Robert,
I can attest to the power of Malware Bytes. I've been supporting computer systems for 12 years and have never run across a better cleaning utility. The online "scanners" are junk. You have experienced one, that is how they all work. Stay away from them. Feel free to email me if you want any assistance, be glad to help a fellow Marine.

well I agree partly with seri, in the end the scoring feels for me not fair at all - its more a 5 to 6 but not as bad as 1! Maybe Sean should try to look on the game thru kids eyes!
The critics about the controls made no sense at all, you can also play tennis via buttons... but this is not Wii like!?

Awesome shoe. I was a little skeptical at first, just…

Break-in Period: 2 days

Awesome shoe. I was a little skeptical at first, just because I got them so cheap. As soon as I got them in the mail, I loved them. They fit true to size. I broke them in within two days.
Yesterday, I went hiking through the woods and came up on a shallow creek bed. Stomping through there, I had no problems. I even accidentally submerged my foot (nearly to my ankle), in some nasty swamp water, and I never felt a drop. In fact, I sprayed them off with the hose, and they still look new.
Buy these shoes while they're cheap. You won't regret it.
