About Thao & The Get Down Stay Down
Thao Nguyen "rich" and "engaging" lead of Cali-based alt folk rockers (Created February 21, 2013)
Thao Nguyen had led an impressive group of musicians as the head of California-based alternative folk rockers Thao and The Get Down Stay Down. Not bad for a girl who first picked up a guitar at age 12 and has paid her dues while working with a long list of acclaimed artists.
With a voice that has been called both "rich" and "engaging" by the New York Times, Nguyen began performing with a high school friend as part of an indie-folk duo and often practiced her songs while working at a laundromat in Falls, Church, Virginia. All the pieces of the band later came together while she studied at The College of William and Mary, with Adam Thompson (bass guitar, keyboards), Frank Stewart (lead guitar and production) and Willis Thompson (drums) along for the ride.
The debut album for Thao & The Get Down Stay Down, "Like the Linen," bowed in 2005 and was the first of five albums put out of the next eight years. The latest, "We The Common" (2013) has been the one that has critics buzzing. Many have lauded Nguyen specifically for the album's far-reaching themes, with songs influenced by her work volunteering with prisoners in the California state penitentiary system.
Tracks on the album like "City" "We Don't Call" point to a much bigger picture and a much more vibrant sound for Nguyen, who is hailed not an introspective songwriter, but as the leader of a band of merrymakers this time around.
Thao & The Get Down Stay Down begin a tour in support of the album on March 1 at Blue Lamp in Sacramento, California. They currently have tour dates booked through April 8, with opening act Sallie Ford & the Sound Outside.

The Olympus Power Battery Holder HLD-6 is a dust- and splash-proof battery holder / grip combination that has been designed especially for use with the Olympus E-M5. You can separate the unit into 2 parts: One fit for shooting in landscape orientation and the other better suited for portraiture.
The landscape unit features an integrated shutter button, plus a dial for locking the grip onto the bottom of the E-M5. The portrait unit has a molded grip to ensure sturdy shooting while your camera is being held in the vertical (portrait) orientation, as well as a built-in shutter button and 2 built-in function buttons that can be programmed independently of those on the E-M5 body. It also includes a DC-IN jack for continuous powered shooting, which requires the optional AC-3 Power Adapter (not included). There's also a compartment allowing for the storage of an optional additional BLN-1 lithium-ion battery.
When shooting with the E-M5 and 2 batteries, you may select which battery to use first. Then, once that one is drained, the camera will start using the second, providing uninterrupted shooting.

On the Mediterranean Sea, there lies the beautiful kingdom of Genes. It is ruled by three lovely, mostly innocent princesses and the power of technology. The surrounding kingdoms all fall one by one to a mysterious Giant Robot (TM). Worse yet, the robot is under the control of several decidedly unattractive Old Guys. When they set their sights on Genes, the Fate of the World (also TM), rests on the maid-outfit-clad shoulders of Kana, the second princess. Born with a special knack for robot technology, Kana and her android companion Rincle are the last line of defense for Genes.

I read an article sometime ago, though I can't seem to find it again: it was regarding an FMRI study in which people were shown erotic images, and for some reason they found that when straight men viewed homoerotic images(this was true even ofliberally minded ones who had no perception of it), there was a threat response activated in the brain. It was not true of any permutation of subject and erotica other than straight men viewing gay pornography.
It struck me at the time that perhaps—to the disappointment of we who would prefer a more tolerant society—that perhaps there's something inate about this particular bigotry(and also a reason why lesbianism has at times been slightly more tolerated than it's male counterpart).
Is anyone aware of this research, is my recollection of it wrong?(I'm willing to believe it is). I can't seem to find my original source.

Detailed Itinerary
Depart from origin. If you are commencing your journey from the United States, we can recommend the best airlines and routings for your particular needs. We can also introduce you to consolidators who offer discounted fares (First, Business and Economy) on these flights. This is a service provided solely as a convenience and extra value for our guests. We do not sell airline tickets to people not touring with us.
1. Rooms for two children 11 or younger can be included at no charge, depending on availability.
2. Extensions can be facilitated to include more days and / or other destinations.
3. If the Elephanta cave excursion at Mumbai does not interest you, this itinerary can be reduced by one day.
4. This itinerary will need to be adjusted for the Taj Mahal's closure on Fridays.
Day 1: Arrive at Mumbai (most flights arrive either in the evening or at night). Our services begin here. You are greeted at the airport by an Easy Tours Travel Facilitator and then ushered to a chauffeur driven vehicle. You are then driven to your hotel where you are assisted with your check in. The next day's plans are briefly reviewed and you are presented with your welcome package. Among other things, this package includes a beautiful handcrafted journal for your explorations, travel documents such as your air tickets and hotel vouchers, as well as copies of documents (such as our General Travel Guide) that were sent to you earlier.
Day 2: Mumbai. You are at leisure this morning to recuperate from your international flight.
Late morning - proceed for a guided excursion to the Elephanta Island Caves. Depending on your arrival at the jetty, you will stop for photo opportunities at the city's signature landmark, The Gateway of India, either before you depart or when you return from this excursion. Located overlooking Mumbai's harbor this structure was built to commemorate the visit of King George V and Queen Mary to Mumbai. It is also the ceremonial gateway that the last British Viceroy departed from when India gained Independence.
You are assisted in boarding the boat for the one hour journey. Elephanta is Mumbai's most significant tourist attraction and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are five Hindu Caves dedicated to Lord Shiva and two Buddhist caves. Your tour will focus on the Hindu Caves. Carved out of hard basalt between 450 A.D. and 750 A.D., the main cave was an active place of worship till the Portuguese conquered the area and inflicted severe damage to the caves in the early 16th century. In its heyday the island was known as Gharapuri (the Fortress city) and there is still a village on the island with the same name. The island was renamed Elephanta by the Portuguese. Although the caves have many massive sculptures of Lord Shiva and other divinities, the most impressive creation at Elephanta is the Trimurthi sculpture. This20 foot tall three headed figure portrays the three manifestations of Lord Shiva – The Creator of all life, The Preserver of humanity and The Destroyer of the world.
You will be escorted back to your hotel after your excursion to Elephanta.
Day 3: Mumbai – Udaipur. You are assisted with your check out in the mid-morning. Enjoy a guided city tour of Mumbai. The tour begins at the Prince of Wales Museum, built to commemorate King George V's first visit to India in 1905. Designed in the Indo-Saracenic style, the museum has sections of art, paintings, archeological exhibits and natural history. After the museum tour you will visit the famous 'Dhobi Ghat' & observe the age old tradition of the Dhobi's doing Mumbai's laundry!
Continue the tour with a drive up to Malabar Hill, where the hanging gardens give a panoramic view of the city and the "Queen's Necklace" (Marine Drive). The tour then takes a drive through the Flora Fountain and Fort area, where you can view the impressive Gothic and Victorian buildings that were constructed during the British 'Raj'. Visit the Victoria Terminus (now known as Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus). It is India's finest example of a Gothic architecture and one of the world's busiest railway stations.
Drive around Horniman Circle and visit the Town Hall, right besides the docks of Mumbai.
Late Afternoon - You are driven to the airport where you are assisted in boarding the flight to Udaipur. You are greeted at the airport by and Easy Tours Travel Facilitator and driven to your hotel where you are assisted with your check-in.
Udaipur is famous for its artists and paintings, including exquisite miniatures.
Day 4: Udaipur. Start your day with a guided city tour of Udaipur which includes a tour of the fabled City Palace. At this Palace complex, explore the beautifully decorated rooms with thousands of exquisite, handcrafted mirrors that cover the walls, the ancient ivory doors that are a dark reminder of royalty's passion for hunting, the brightly colored glass windows, expansive inlaid marble balconies and the unique peacock courtyard. Enjoy a private tour of the amazing Crystal Gallery which houses the world's largest collection of priceless crystal. Marvel at pieces like the complete bedroom furniture set in crystal, discovered recently in a store room in the palace. There are amazing views to be had from this structure, especially of Lake Pichola, the Lake Palace hotel and Jag Mandir.
After your tour of the City Palace you will visit the historical Sahelion-ki-bari gardens and the local Museum.
Late afternoon/Early evening: Enjoy a cruise on Lake Pichola and visit the historical and beautiful monuments at Jag Mandir Island (if available – the royal family at Udaipur will occasionally rent out the island for large celebrations and on those occasions the island cannot be visited by tourists).
Day 5: Udaipur – Jaipur. You are assisted with an early morning check out from your hotel and then you proceed on the drive to Jaipur, via Ranakpur. Arrive at Ranakpur and enjoy a guided excursion to the awe-inspiring Jain Temple Complex. Tour the famous 15th Century marble temple that is still an active place of worship. The main temple's 29 halls are supported by 1444 massive yet intricately carved marble pillars, and no two are of the same design. There is an abundance of exquisite sculptures and friezes and the enormous scale of the monument and the exquisite details of its design have to be experienced to be believed.
Lunch is included at Ranakpur this afternoon.
Continue on the drive to Jaipur. This is a picturesque drive through the Aravali hills with photo opportunities of village life and local livestock, including many camels. Arrive at Jaipur in the evening and you are assisted with your check-in to your hotel.
Jaipur is famous for its carpets, jewelry & handicrafts.
Day 6: Jaipur. Start your day with an excursion to Amber Fort & Palace. Just like the Emperors of a few centuries ago, enjoy the ascent up to the ramparts of the fort on top of a colorfully caparisoned elephant (jeeps are available instead of the elephants, if you so desire). The massive Fort complex was originally built by Raja Mansingh and is one of India's finest examples of Rajput architecture. Explore the chambers and hallways of the Palace which are famous for their exquisite designs and handcrafted embellishments. Return to the valley beneath the Fort on your elephant or jeep and proceed back to the Pink City.
There is a break for lunch.
Afternoon – Experience a guided city tour of the walled city of Jaipur, including the magnificent City Palace. Visit Jantar Mantar (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the magnificent stone observatory built by Raja Jai Singh in 1728. After the observatory comes a photo opportunity of the 'Hawa Mahal' (Palace of the Wind. This intriguing facade was built in 1799 so that the ladies of the court could use its unique windows and observe the bustling bazaar, without being visible to the people on the streets. Continue the tour with an exploration of the City Palace, the former royal residence (a part of it is still occupied by the Royal family and is not accessible to the public), built in a blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architectural styles. This immense complex also houses a number of museums that offer a large and impressive collection of miniature paintings, costumes, and armory.
Evening – You can either choose to enjoy your hotel this evening, or select from one of these two escorted excursions. You can visit the home of a Rajasthani Nobleman and enjoy a traditional dinner with members of the family, or you can enjoy a dinner and Rajasthani cultural show that includes regional dance, music and acrobatic performances.
Day 7: Jaipur - Ranthambore. You are at leisure to enjoy the facilities of one of the world's finest luxury resorts this morning. You are assisted with your check out at noon and you proceed on the journey to Sawai Madhopur (Ranthambore National Park). Most of this drive is through rural Rajasthan and there are multiple photo opportunities of the colorful villagers as they go about their daily activities. You will also encounter many camels and other livestock on this drive.
You are greeted on arrival at your jungle lodge and assisted with your check-in.
Since 2006, Easy Tours of India has tracked the percentage of tiger sightings for our guests in Ranthambore National Park. Over 85% of our guests have had tiger sightings during this period, with many of them getting multiple sightings.
Day 8: Ranthambore. Covering an area of 410 sq. km, Ranthambore National Park runs along the eastern spur of the Aravali mountain range until it meets with the Vindhya ranges. Ranthambore used to be the private hunting ground of the rulers of Jaipur. In 1972 it was declared a Sanctuary and was brought under the Project Tiger Conservation platform.
Dry deciduous forest covers most of the park, and the vegetation is lush around the many small lakes and ponds. The open grasslands that are the tiger's favorite terrain account for much of the land on the higher slopes. This varied flora supports a large number of animals including a variety of deer, the sloth bear, the shy caracal, leopards and of course, the tiger.
Enjoy wildlife safaris in to the park in the morning and evening.
In between safaris, you have the option of a guided visit to the Ranthambore Fort. This excursion does have a fairly steep climb – approximately 700 feet of stairs. The massive Fort is one of the finest examples of the ancient Hindu concept of "Vana-Durg", or a fort protected by a jungle. The history of this Fort (originally built in 944 AD) is a chronicle full of tales of blood and valor. Successively occupied by the Muslims, Rajputs and Mughals, the insides of the fort today lie partly in ruins. There are superb views of the park to be had from the ramparts. There is an ancient temple located in the fort and it attracts a continuous stream of pilgrims from the surrounding villages. A little note of caution – a large number of aggressive langur's (South Asian monkeys) have made the Fort area their home and it is not advisable to have shiny objects and food visible in your hands as you tour the fort, as it will be snatched away.
Day 9: Ranthambore – Agra. Enjoy your last safari into Ranthambore in the morning. Return to your hotel after the safari to freshen up and have breakfast. You are assisted with your check-out from your hotel and then you are driven to Agra. The first half of this drive is also through rural Rajasthan and there are multiple photo opportunities. Sawai Madhopur itself (the community located next to Ranthambore) is a rural small town and you will drive though it to get a glimpse of life here before you proceed on your drive. Arrive at Fatehpur Sikri and enjoy a guided exploration of this beautiful uninhabited city. It was built by Emperor Akbar between 1570 and 1585 and is constructed primarily out of red sandstone. The Emperor moved his capital from Agra to this city and then, a few years later, abandoned it, returning back to Agra. Visit the tallest gateway in the world, the towering Bulund Darwaza (The Gate of Victory). In the northern part of the courtyard is the superb white marble tomb of Shaik Salim Chishti, built in 1570.
There is a break for Lunch.
Continue on your drive to Agra. Arrive at Agra and you are assisted with your check in at your hotel.
Agra's artists are famous for their creations in inlaid marble.
Day 10: Agra. You are at leisure this morning to enjoy the facilities at your hotel.
Early afternoon - start your exploration of Agra with a half day guided city tour of the magnificent monuments of this city. This exploration includes a visit to the famous tomb of Itmad-Ud–Daulah. This was built by Mughal Emperor Jehangir's queen as a memorial to her father. The tombs sheer beauty will surprise you – the only reason it does not get more accolades is because it shares the stage with the incomparable Taj Mahal. Like the Taj it has amazingly intricate 'Pietra Dura' inlay and lattice marble screens. The mausoleum rests in a walled garden with a view of the river Yamuna. Constructed in the year 1628, most historians believe that its design provided the inspiration for the Taj Mahal. After your exploration of the tomb you will visit the first red sandstone fort of North India, the Agra Fort. It was built in 1565 by India's greatest Mughal ruler, Emperor Akbar. Its royal audience halls, immense stone courtyards, marble mosque and the private royal chambers give us a glimpse of the grandeur of the Mughal Empire.
There is a break for lunch.
Afternoon - Visit one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the incomparable Taj Mahal. The world's greatest monument dedicated to love is obviously a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Taj Mahal was completed by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1653 AD as a memorial to his beloved queen, Mumtaz Mahal. This spectacular white marble mausoleum was created by about 22,000 skilled craftsmen and it took twenty two years to complete. When you experience the Taj Mahal with an Easy Tours Guide and have them provide unique insights into its innumerable facets, some of their passion for this masterpiece may rub off on you! Explore the amazing Taj and its surroundings until it is time to admire the sun's rays setting on the façade of the world's finest monument.
Day 11: Agra – Delhi. You can either sleep in or chose to enjoy either of these two optional (no charge) excursions - a sunrise visit to Mehtab Bagh, which is a 500 year old Mughal garden located across from the Taj Mahal on the other side of the Yamuna River; or a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal. If you select either of the latter options, you will return to your hotel to freshen up after the excursion. You can choose to enjoy the facilities at your amazing hotel till just before noon. If you do not start fairly early in the morning (enabling you to dine on arrival at Delhi), we recommend that you get a packed lunch from the hotel for your journey. You are assisted with your check out of the hotel and driven to Delhi. You are assisted with your check-in to your hotel on your arrival at Delhi.
Day 12: Delhi – International Flight. Continue your exploration of India with a guided city tour of Old Delhi after you check out of your hotel. If you are boarding a late evening/early morning international flight after this tour, you can sleep in this morning and start this day's activity in the mid-morning. If you are boarding a flight back to Mumbai (or elsewhere in India), this tour may need to be abbreviated so that you can check-in on time for your flight.
Drive, walk and ride through the ancient city's streets and alleys; explore crowded and colorful bazaars. This excursion includes an exploration of the Jama Masjid, completed in 1650 AD and the largest mosque in India. You continue on to the amazing Red Fort that was finished a decade before the mosque. Both structures were built by Shah Jahan, the emperor that created the Taj Mahal. The Masjid (Mosque) is a magnificent example of Mughal architecture and is constructed of red sandstone and white marble. It is an active place of worship and its courtyard can hold 25,000 worshippers.
The great city inside the massive sandstone walls of the Red Fort offers visitors a large number of architectural and historical attractions; it was once known as the 8th wonder of the world. The Red Fort was the seat of the Mughal Empire for more than two hundred and fifty years and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is an amazing example of a blend of Persian, Indian, and European architecture.
Once you leave the Fort you will experience a rickshaw ride in the alleys of the ancient bazaar at Chandni Chowk. After experiencing the crowded and colorful bazaar you will proceed to your last destination in Old Delhi. The cremation site of Mahatma Gandhi (Raj Ghat) is a simple yet stirring memorial to the father of the nation. Lush lawns extend beyond the enclosure that surrounds the black marble platform occupying the spot where the Mahatma was cremated. An eternal flame burns next to the platform.
There is a break for lunch.
Afternoon – enjoy a city tour of New Delhi. This excursion begins with a drive past Safdarjang's Tomb (1753 AD) while driving to the awe-inspiring Qutab Minar (1193 A.D.). This 239 ft tall medieval tower is a symbol of victory and a beautiful example of Persian architecture from that period. There is a winding stairway inside the tower that goes up all the way to the balcony at the very top of the tower – unfortunately they are no longer accessible for visitors. The Qutab Minar and its Monuments are also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Within the Qutab complex, amidst the ruins of the Quwat-ul-Islam Mosque, stands one of the legendary Ashoka Pillars. This large iron pillar has withstood the ravages of Delhi's weather (and recent pollution) and has not rusted in over 1500 years. After the Qutab complex you will be driven to visit the magnificent tomb of the Mughal Emperor Humayun. Delhi has such an abundance of amazing monuments that this Tomb Complex (1562 A.D.) does not quite get the acclaim that it deserves. It is Delhi's third UNESCO World Heritage Site and its amazing architecture and the elaborate gardens (all currently undergoing restoration) will captivate you.
From the tomb you will proceed on a drive to Lutyens' New Delhi. Time permitting, this drive will include photo opportunities at some of the following attractions - the exterior of the massive and awe-inspiring Rashtrapati Bhawan (known as Viceroy's House during the British era), Delhi's landmark structure India Gate, a golden domed Sikh Temple (Bangla Sahib Gurudwara), & the Birla Temple. The last part of this excursion is a drive through Connaught Place, which is New Delhi's downtown.
If you are boarding your international flight from Delhi, you will be driven there in time for your flight. If you are flying out from Mumbai, this tour may need to be shortened, depending on the time of your flight. You will be driven to the airport and assisted in boarding the flight to Mumbai. Upon your arrival at Mumbai you are greeted at the airport by an Easy Tours Facilitator & your chauffeur.
Either way, your vehicle and chauffeur stay with you until your (usually late evening) assisted check in at the airport. This is a good time to do some last minute shopping and/or sightseeing if you are so inclined. If your flight departs early in the morning you may want us to arrange a room for you so you can rest.
Our services end at Delhi / Mumbai airport.

I have a question about the handy gurugu hand lotion, I wonder is this cream food friendly like can I grab foods after using this cream? In addition does it need to be rinsed or washed away after using it? Thank you very much!Asked on 1/29/2014 by Alice from Jersey City, NJ
1 answer
A:All of our products are designed to be used externally so we do not recommend for the products to come in contact with the mouth. While Handy Gurugu does not need to be rinsed after use, it is best to wait until it has absorbed into the skin before using your hands to eat.Answered on 3/22/2014 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct

Comparison of the communicative environment of young language-learning children in two cultures
The communicative environments in which children grow up differ considerably across cultures. However, there are hardly any quantitative studies of the input children receive in non-western, rural societies. The goal of this project is to quantitatively assess and compare the communicative contexts of children growing up in two very diverse cultures, namely rural Nepal (Chintang) and rural Germany.
This is an interdisciplinary project between the Department of Linguistics (Sabine Stoll) and the Department of Psychology (Elena Lieven) in which we study the role of the communicative context for language acquisition.
There are several ethnographic studies that report large variations in the communicative environments in which children grow up. These studies suggest that children growing up in cultures other than those of urban, technological societies may receive a very different language input. One such feature of this input is that children are surrounded by many more interlocutors than children in the urban settings of technological societies, and that other children of various ages are much more prominent as interlocutors . Thus, the input is less restricted to one or a very few persons as it is often the case for the early language development of children growing up in urban technological societies. So far, studies of non-urban contexts of language acquisition have focused on qualitative analyses but there are no quantitative assessments of these differences. Since we do know, however, for the technological cultures so far studied, that the amount and type of input strongly influences the rate and course of acquisition, it is important to learn more about the quantitative differences in input in different societies.
In the present study, we compare the communicative and language input of 6 children in Eastern Nepal, learning Chintang, a Sino-Tibetan language, with 6 age- and gender-matched German children. Both groups of children grow up in rural areas. We coded video tapes of the children's natural interaction for the following features: number of utterances addressed to the child, number of different people interacting with the child, kinds of interaction with the child, imitations of and by the child, interactive activities, pointings, etc. The analysis of the data is currently under way.

This is a joke
No foul. Wow
this team can't handle the simplest of things... like scoring on a fast break... or getting your #1 pick touches
I know Ryno is probably thinking "I can't wait til we get some real NBA ballplayers in here".
Why is roger mason playing over Darius miller?
Dell Demps PLEASE get us some scorers!
Really like how Davis is playing but damn is he winded lol. Still needs to get his conditioning back on track.
LOL The Lakers are getting smashed by the Bobcats at Staples.
anybody in here have some clarity on the cp3 trade?? did we choose aminu over bledsoe?? I thought we chose the 1st rd pick over bledsoe
Davis isn't even make it past half court the last possession down .. How can he be so out of shape ?
Davis is rebounding well at least. Showing activity. But that ankle thing must have stopped him from doing ANY wind sprints. He gets winded with regularity now. He's going to really benefit over the offseason. Hope he transformers his body into a bulked up, toned, and well-conditioned machine.

SUFFOLK--The City of Suffolk responded Friday to the accusation that it isn't doing enough to protect its precious wetlands from developers.
Developer Brian Large removed thousands of trees to make way for a new subdivision near the Nansemond River.
The bare landscape infuriated Suffolk residents and environmental groups.
The Nansemond River Protection Alliance accused Suffolk of not doing enough to stop the developer from tearing out so many tress.
Suffolk City Planning Director Scott Mills told 13News Friday that they do enforce the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act.
Mills added that he can't control whether someone wants to break the law and explained that Large removed the trees before he was permitted.
Large, however, says he was fully permitted.
Large was cited criminally twice and in his compliance plan agreed to replant every tree he ripped out and to build a living shoreline to try and restore the ecosystem.

What is the prognosis (outlook) for encephalopathy?
Reader Stories
The prognosis for a patient with encephalopathy depends on the initial causes and, in general, the length of time it takes to reverse, stop, or inhibit those causes. Consequently, the prognosis varies from patient to patient and ranges from complete recovery to a poor prognosis that often leads to permanent brain damage or death. This highly variable prognosis is exemplified by patients that get encephalopathy from hypoglycemia. If patients with hypoglycemia are given glucose at the first signs of encephalopathy (for example, irritability, mild confusion), most patients recover completely. Delays in correcting hypoglycemia (hours to days) may lead to seizures or coma, which may be halted by treatment with complete or partial recovery (minimal permanent brain damage). A long delay or multiple delays in treatment can lead to a poor prognosis with extensive brain damage, coma, or death.
Although the symptoms and time frame vary widely from patient to patient and according to the initial causes of encephalopathy (see above sections for examples of causes), the prognosis of each case usually follows the pattern described in the hypoglycemic example above and depends upon the extent and rapidity with which the underlying cause is treated. The doctor or team of doctors treating the underlying cause of encephalopathy can offer the best information on the individual's prognosis.
Can encephalopathy be prevented?
Many cases of encephalopathy can be prevented. The key to prevention is to stop or limit the chance of developing any of the multitudes of causes of encephalopathy. If encephalopathy develops, the quicker the underlying cause is treated, the more likely that severe encephalopathy can be prevented.
Examples of prevention (and situations to avoid) are listed below:
Methods for prevention of encephalopathy are about as numerous as the underlying causes; however, some cases of encephalopathy may not be preventable (for example, congenital and accidental traumatic encephalopathy).

A Silver Spring company is the most recent recipient of a half-a-million-dollar grant from the state's InvestMaryland program.
The company—Weather Analytics, which started up just last year—received a $500,000 grant, according to a news release from the Maryland Department of Business and Economic Development. The company recently moved from Virginia to 8403 Colesville Rd., Silver Spring.
Weather Analytics tracks weather data everywhere, simultaneously. "We ingest and store 6 billion weather measurements a day," its CEO Bill Pardue told the Washington Business Journal.
They get those measurements "from a worldwide network of more than 45,000 sensors, including ground stations, buoys, ships, aircraft and balloons." The company combines those measurements "with more than three decades of historical weather information to develop the company's proprietary indices and forecasts," according to the news release.
Why do they do this massive job in Maryland? "Maryland is a great and natural choice to base Weather Analytics," Pardue said in a statement. "The headquarters of the National Weather Service is in Montgomery County and the University of Maryland is building a terrific program in meteorology. We've just recruited two outstanding scientists from their graduate program," he said.
"In addition, many of our investors live in Maryland and the leadership of the Maryland Venture Fund in our recent [$2 million dollar] capital [fundraising campaign] is key to building our national and international expansion programs," he added.
Through InvestMaryland grants, the state-run Maryland Venture Fund invests in technology companies—like Weather Analytics—doing business in fields such as e-commerce, biotechnology, online education, social media, information technology and communications. According to the news release, the fund has been around for 17 years and has invested $25 million in more than 100 technology and life sciences companies in the early states of doing business.
The fund also has generated $67 million, 2,000 jobs and more than $1 billion in private investment, the release continued.
"InvestMaryland allows us to nurture Maryland's innovation economy by supporting startups like Weather Analytics, which help to strengthen Maryland's position as a hub for big data, IT, cybersecurity and the life sciences," Governor Martin O'Malley said in a statement.

MT. HERMON — There's a theme that has developed for the Southern Alamance boys' basketball team.
It's a tendency to play with Metro Conference foes, but not quite defeat league opponents.
That was evident during Tuesday night's game against Greensboro Dudley, which saw the Patriots fall victim to a 73-65 score.
"We've proved that we can play with everybody in the conference, but playing with them isn't good enough," Patriots coach Anthony Noell said.
Southern Alamance (7-10 overall, 1-5 league) spent the entire second half waffling in a single-digit deficit, trailing by as few as two and never more than 10 until the final minute.
When Greensboro Dudley (12-6, 7-0) grabbed a nine-point lead with 5:18 left, it looked like the Panthers might be in position to close out the game.
But a personal 5-0 run for Shane Forbes cut the hole back to four, and Southern Alamance stayed within two possessions until the final two minutes.
"It was one of those things, we kept fighting, we cut it to four several times in the fourth quarter," Noell said. "We'd cut it to four and they'd make a big shot.
"I am proud of the way we played, we played really hard. I thought our defense in the last three quarters was solid. We just didn't get enough stops in the fourth quarter."
In the last two minutes, Greensboro Dudley made nine of 10 free throws, while the Patriots came up with only two field goals.
"We fouled them, put them on the foul line, they made free throws," Noell said. "I have to give them a lot of credit for the way they finished the game."
Southern Alamance guard Dairyon Matkins led the team with 20 points, draining six 3-pointers.
But he agreed with Noell that the team has become fed up with just taking moral victories from playing close conference games.

West Chester University's next accreditation visit by NCATE (CAEP) will be in March 2014. Preparing for an accreditation visit is both daunting and rewarding. It is daunting because it requires the compilation and coordination of many documents and datasets, all of which, when compiled, tell the rich story of how we have continuously improved how we prepare educators for classrooms and schools in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and beyond. It is rewarding because this process allows for great reflection on the work of the previous accreditation cycle. As we look at all the evidence we are compiling, we are reminded of the ways in which we have grown and changed as we have strived to remain the leader in educator preparation in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

All Children's Hospital RN Residency Program Description
Pediatric RN Residency: The All Children's Hospital Pediatric RN Residency is dedicated to providing a 12-month foundational program for the graduate or otherwise eligible nurse to provide the support and knowledge to grow into a competent pediatric professional practitioner. In addition to hospital nursing orientation, the RN Residency Program consists of 40 hours of general classes within the first 10 weeks, followed by a 4-hour Survive & Thrive session, scheduled monthly for the remainder of the first year. These classes will be accompanied by preceptor-led orientation to the unit of hire, unit specific classes and training, looping opportunities to other hospital departments and services, simulation, a mentor program, clinical debriefings, and support time/self-care sessions. All new graduate nurses are expected to actively participate in the RN Residency Program.
Residency Program Requirements for New Hire or Transfer:
- All applicants must have a BSN to be eligible for the All Children's RN Residency Program
- Any nurse who has not worked in the RN Role for greater than 6 months
- Current Florida RN License will be required at least 1 week prior to start date
Residency Guidelines
Making a decision to become a pediatric nurse at All Children's Hospital is an important step in your career. The guidelines to enter the program are included below. A list of Frequently Asked Questions is also available on our site.
Required Documentation - Receipt of all documentation will complete your application. Documentation listed below must be received by the dates listed above, in order for your application to be considered.
- Resume
- Cover Letter
- Two Clinical References on letterhead from direct supervisors (if working in a clinical setting), professors, or preceptors
Frequently Asked Questions
- Where do I go to apply? On the application dates listed above, a link will open directly on this web page for you to complete and submit your application to an RN I position. An application button will ONLY appear on the dates posted above and will be prominently displayed. No late applications will be accepted.
- How do I send in my letters of recommendation? Please upload both your cover letter & your letters of recommendation in the cover letter field in the online application. You will need to scan these documents into a single pdf document so that they can be uploaded as one document. (There will be a separate field for you to upload your resume.) Please ensure that you receive your recommendation letters prior to the application date.
- To whom should my cover letter and/or letters of recommendation be addressed? Appropriate salutations include: "Dear Hiring Manager," "Dear Hiring Team," "Dear Nursing Managers," or "To Whom It May Concern." Although many job-hunting sites and columns suggest that you direct your letter to a specific person, when you apply to the RN Residency your application usually is considered by several units. If you are only interested in one unit, you may use a specific greeting (e.g. "Dear CVICU Unit" or "Dear PICU Hiring Manager"). However, please keep in mind that if you choose this type of greeting you are limiting your options and your application might not be considered by other units.
- What experience will help me get hired? Our hiring team places value in the number of hours in pediatric clinical rotations, previous EMT, LPN or CNA experience, volunteer experience and stable work history. For more tips and career information, "like" our facebook page or join our Talent Community.
- When will I be notified about the status of my application? All applications will be reviewed. You will be contacted if you are selected for an interview. If you are not selected, you will receive a notification. Unfortunately, due to the volume of applicants, we are unable to provide updates regarding specific applications.
- What is the RN Residency Interview Event? Applicants who meet the requirements and have been selected for an interview will receive an RN Residency Interview Event invitation via email. The next invitation-only event will be held June 4, 2015. Candidates who cannot attend will still be considered. For out-of-town attendees, hotel and travel recommendations will be provided.
- What happens after the RN Residency Interview Event? After the RN Residency Interview Event, selected candidates will be scheduled for a 2nd interview. Candidates from out-of-town will be scheduled for the following day. Selected local candidates will be scheduled for in-person interviews within the next few weeks. Candidates who did not attend the event will be reviewed and scheduled for interviews, accordingly.
- Why should I attend the RN Residency Interview Event? This RN Residency Interview Event gives candidates an opportunity to tour the hospital and to meet in person with the Hiring Team, including Directors, Managers, Educators, Unit Leaders and Recruiters. On the tour, you'll see the units that are available for the RN Residency, our Sim Lab (where you will train), and meet some of the nurses that could soon be your future co-workers! The RN Residency Program offers an intensive educational opportunity 2 and support beyond the traditional 13 week programs offered by other hospitals. Our hospital is the only free standing-pediatric hospital on the Gulf Coast of Florida and the only member of Johns Hopkins Medicine outside of the Baltimore area. Getting a glimpse of what we have to offer will give you the opportunity to determine if All Children's Hospital is the right first step in your career. Also, since all of our RN Residency candidates are new RNs, we know it can be a little difficult to convey everything you want in a cover letter and resume. The interview event will provide a way by which you can distinguish yourself in-person as a good match for the RN Residency program.
- Will I be required to sign a contract? We do not require that you sign a contract. All Children's Hospital offers significant commitment to the extensive training, education and support of New Graduate Nurses and RN Residents. Because of this, we do ask that you carefully consider your commitment to the program and the organization. For more information, please read this letter of commitment.
- What if I am not hired? You may reapply to future residency programs, provided you still meet the criteria. If you have over one year of RN experience, our RN II positions might be an option for you. You are welcome to join our Talent Community to receive notifications of All Children's Hospital Nursing Career information.
- What is the pathway to be trained in Critical Care (PICU and CVICU)? A Career path to CVICU and PICU will be offered through an RN Fellowship Program - see the information on the RN Fellowship page to further answer your questions, it is open applications for both internal and external cadidates.
Transfer Guideline
An RN Resident will not be eligible for transfer to another unit/department until one year from the completion of their orientation, except with Administrative approval.
Additionally, a Critical Care Track RN Resident will not be eligible for transfer to another unit/department until two years from the completion of their ICU orientation, except with Administrative approval.
Initial Classes - 40 hours
The first ten weeks of the RN Residency Program serve to introduce the new graduate nurse to All Children's Hospital, the role of the registered nurse, and patient care. Foundational knowledge will be explored, including safety, conflict management, prioritization, and time management. Resources within the hospital will be presented as the resident is immersed in the support of the team. (The ACH RN Residency Program Classes will begin following New Employee Orientation and general Nursing Orientation.
Survive & Thrive - 44 hours
Survive & Thrive is an extension of the ACH RN Residency Program. The sessions are held once a month, for 4 hours and begin during the third month of RN resident orientation. The educational topics presented in these sessions will build upon the foundational knowledge provided during the resident's first ten weeks class time, while providing an introduction to professional development. The resident will be introduced to the Mentor Program and continue to receive support through peer interaction with the Support Team and Clinical Debriefings.
Description of Residency Programs
- Mentor Program: This program focuses on the introduction of the RN resident to the world of mentoring. The RN resident will learn the difference between a mentor and a preceptor, and will receive guidance in the determination of a mentor. The mentor and RN resident will receive instruction, support, and encouragement regarding their relationship. The program is facilitated by the Mentor Team.
- Support Team: This program provides the RN Resident with information on self-care during their new career as a registered nurse.

The Facebook "Likes" came in swiftly, more than 1,000 in 48 hours following the announcement that popular Los Angeles radio personality "Uncle Joe" Benson had left KLOS-FM for morning drive at 100.3 FM The Sound.
Two Examples: Jay Jimenez "It's great to have you back on the air!! I've missed the history lessons that accompany the music. You are truly an asset to the Air Waves! Keep on Keepin' on.. jj"
Kevin Scott "I was pleasantly surprised to hear You Uncle Joe on Friday morning. I tuned in expecting to hear Larry and Sheri but heard you. I loved the Larry and Sheri show but have enjoyed you for a lot more years. Welcome to the Sound!"
Benson did a trial run before starting Feb. 4 in the 5:30-10 a.m. weekday slot, replacing Larry Morgan and Sheri Donovan, who have left 100.3.
"I'm having a blast playing a real honest-to-God wide variety of classic rock, telling stories about the songs, taking questions for rock stars I'm interviewing, saluting folks' birthdays, anniversaries and almost nutritious school lunches, and playing lots of music," Benson said. "After all, I've got a huge family I've been talking and playing with over the past 32 years on the air in Southern California, so it's my family's morning show – and it rocks! The response has been overwhelming and I'm right at home on The Sound!"
Fans can post comments at his Facebook page Uncle Joe's Family. More information: thesoundla.com.
Here is the new on-air schedule at KLOS/95.5 FM:
12 - 6:a.m. - The 3rd Shift; 6- - 10 a.m. - The Heidi and Frank Show; 10 a.m.-3 p.m. - Cynthia Fox; 3-7 p.m. – Gary Moore, 7 p.m.-midnight – Melissa Maxx.
Last week I asked readers about reported sound problems with the Sirius XM satellite programming. Here are some responses:
Paul Delaney: What I have noticed is that the signal just dies. No audio, the side band with the metatags still runs, but the music isn't there. This never happened before. Another thing is that their signal is becoming more spotty than it used to be. I understand that it is a line-of-sight signal (I always thought it was interesting that a giant technological step forward took us back to the days of AM and line-of-sight), but I am losing the signal when there is no issue with buildings or trucks or any of that. Is Sirius XM showing its age?
Mike Burns: Uh yeah – highly harsh and compressed sounding and hardly worthy of a paid subscription model. One of the worst offenders is The Message. In addition, I drive an '08 7-Series BMW and the Sirius radio signal cuts in and out repeatedly at random for a few seconds at a time. On a typical 30-minute drive it can cut out as many as 50 times. Multiple visits to LB BMW have discovered no problem with the equipment or vehicle.
Dave Judy: I cannot begin to tell you how much I HATE the sound quality currently offered up by Sirius radio. I don't know what changed, but it used to not be this way. I was a huge fan of this product for the longest time. Now, I can barely stand it! My wife (not an audiophile) is barely able to distinguish the difference between bass and treble. She doesn't even notice. I, on the other hand, view the brutal and ungodly level of compression as radio's equivalent of fingernails on the chalkboard.
David Alpern: I have noticed the poor sound quality on various rental cars over the years but attributed it to the cars. Now with Sirius in my new sedan that has premium speakers I can confirm that the sound is noticeably tinny. Sad, because with stations like Alt Nation and Spectrum, I would have considered paying once my 6-month trial is over, but am less inclined due to the sound quality.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Magnets turned out really cute! Really pleased with my order.
We are having a fun lighthearted wedding, and the last thing we wanted were stuffy save the dates and invited. We weren't even going to do save the dates, but I saw these online and couldn't resist the caricatures. They make you laugh and excited about what the wedding will be like. They arrived quickly, and loved the customer service that came with them (the picture I chose for the groom was going to be a little red, and someone emailed me letting me know and if I would like to change the picture before production). I wish the pink background would have came out a little brighter as on my screen, but it still looks great. If you are going for a bright pink, I would recommend changing the color a little bit. Will definitely return for invitations!
Fun and Playful
I love this magnet! It captures our laid back, fun-loving personalities perfectly. I looked everywhere for a magnet that was not so stuffy and formal. The customizing options are limitless and the product is great quality. Manufactured and delivered in a timely manner. Big bang for the buck!!!!!!
Looks Great
Looks so good! and it is so cute! I know everyone will love it. I can't wait to hear what my guests think of them!
My fiancé and I are beyond happy with this magnet. It shows off our fun and cute side. Would recommend to everyone!
