LOUISVILLE - The Miami University softball team completed play at the Red and Black Tournament with a pair of defeats on Sunday. In the opener, the RedHawks fell to Austin Peay, 5-1. The nightcap saw the Illinois State Redbird offense explode in a 16-1 victory in six innings over Miami. The RedHawks are now 2-13 on the season.
Austin Peay (7-5) broke up the scoreless opener with two runs in the bottom of the second. It remained that way until Miami got on the board in the top of the sixth. Taylor Shuey led off with a single to right field. Kayla Ledbetter sacrifice bunted her over to second. Allie Larrabee would score Shuey with a single to left field that cut the deficit to 2-1.
The Governors were able to put the game away with three runs in the bottom of the sixth. The RedHawks put together a threat in the top of the seventh after Remy Edwards led off with a double, but they were unable to get a run across.
Shanyn McIntyre was Miami's top hitter against Austin Peay, finishing 2-for-3. Larrabee was 1-for-3 with one RBI.
The Illinois State (13-11) offense was extremely potent on Sunday as it put up 16 runs off of three RedHawk pitchers. The Redbirds were helped by two Miami errors that caused nine of those runs to be unearned. In front 8-1 in the top of the sixth, Illinois State scored eight in the frame to force the run-rule victory.
Miami got its run in the bottom of the first inning. Tiyona Marshall led off with an infield single and then stole second. Ledbetter would follow with a single to score her.
Ledbetter finished the nightcap 2-for-3 with one RBI. Marshall, McIntyre, Jenna Modic and Kylie McChesney also picked up hits for the 'Hawks.
Miami heads to San Diego over spring break where it will play a total of seven games.

Ultimate ZIP Cracker 1
This gallery is also available as a post in the Five Apps Blog.
Few things in life are more frustrating than needing to open a file, but not being able to remember the password that will allow it. Thankfully, there are a variety of utilities designed to help crack forgotten passwords.
Five Apps
1. Ultimate ZIP Cracker
As the name implies, Ultimate ZIP Cracker is a utility for retrieving lost passwords for ZIP files. This program is completely utilitarian and there is nothing fancy about it at all, but it works. In preparation for writing this bog post I created a ZIP file and assigned it a password of 1234. Ultimate ZIP Cracker cracked the password in less than a second.
Credit: Images by Brien Posey for TechRepublic
Thank you very much. I just use a smart password recovery tool called SmartKey Password Recovery
Thank you very much. I just use a smart password recovery tool called SmartKey Password Recovery from recoverlostpassword dot com . You can Google search it. It is excellent.
i wouldn't call the slideshow confusing just needlessly time consuming to navigate. Like many others if there is a blog entry for the same thing I immediately go to that because it is so much easier to follow.
How do you see the other 4 apps? I can see the first one ok but that's it
Please re-post!
I do agree with all comments posted before! In a more general way, I really appreciate your informative emails, but I'd be quite happy if the embedded link leaded me directly to the blog instead of the gallery, which is neither handy nor pleasant to read...
This is very hard to read. Please re-post!
I don't like galleries. Article or blog please. The option to view as a blog doesn't work.
a quick note / comment, you state that you made a password of 1234 thats cool that it took lets say 5 seconds to crack it, "Just" how good is it really, with a major password, upper, lower case and numbers all mixed up, lets try say 15 letters and number and see how long if at all it can crack it
Seems to me TR is telling people to crack any software they find. Next they'll show us some nice hacking tools.
I think you are making a real UI mistake by putting these in a clickable slideshow. I't not even a slideshow, it's another page. It's a pain and it's to slow to click through your 5 or 10 whatever. I always click on the gallery link. You should make the gallery default.
I thought techrepublic had a policy prohibiting password cracking information on the site? At least I thought so- hmm.
What the )I{IP{F! How about putting the blog link in like the other writers. I hate this format! I can read faster and this format JUST WASTES MY TIME! I would expect that you would make it easy for your readers to get to the blog.
I agree with other posts, this is a very confusing and frustrating format. Still have not seen the other 4 great apps....
I've seen other web sites that load an entire gallery in a reasonable time and have fast switching between pages thanks to some JavaScript magic. These galleries, on the other hand, take forever to reload their ads and other ancillary stuff every time, making them so aggravating that I usually dismiss them long into loading the second page but before its main content is readable. Even on a fast cable link the server coughs up its material so slowly that one has to be really motivated to sit and wait sometimes for a substantial fraction of a minute per page.
I am in 100% agreement with 'ScubaClimber'! I always click the blog post link to read these. The Gallery view is annoying. BTW - The link for the blog post is still not fixed. On a positive note, the Techrepublic artilces are great and I really find a lot of useful information.
That's amazing! I've got the same combination on my luggage!
Let us set it up in our profile which way we prefer. I really dislike the gallery mode.
Shouldn't "This gallery is also available as a post in the Five Apps Blog." be linked to the blog itself?
Please make the Blog the default or at least the option in the email to choose. I hate the gallery style, so slow and confusing. Pretty please :) :) :)
This subject has been brought to Tech Republic on numerous occasions and it never changes. The only answer I can come up with is that by forcing a page refresh for every image, TR gets a better revenue stream from advertising than if we were allowed to go to a blog and see it all at once. TR: Please make the blog the default in future articles.
If a topic is presented in "gallery" form, I usually skip it. A site like TechRepublic should not have such a clunky, clumsy web design. No site should, for that matter.
I always click on the blog post or the article as I find the galleries to be less useful and far more frustrating to deal with. I have stopped looking at this article due to the fact that I could not find an active link to the blog post.
I been an read only member for quite a while and I agree that this should be an option not the default.
I agree with the posts above, where's the point in reloading the page five times to read the article? Please can we have the blog post as the default view so it can be read on one page?
Sloppiness breeds sloppiness. NOT Jack! So.. Oh Brien, Brien, Brien.
Yup, no link to Blog. I wish there were an option to always get these already linked to the Blog version. The gallery version is to clumbsy to use. Each advance means a bunch of scrolling to see the pic and read the text and waiting for the next one to load. very time consuming.
Rehashing and reviving old TR blog material just doesn't pay does it. You are either way too busy or ??? Sloppy work Jack. Not the sort I have come to expect from you.
Did you actually set up a network sniffer (e.g., Wireshark) and confirm that no parts of your confidential Word document were sent across the internet when you tested "Word Password Recovery Master?" If not, your review was not sufficiently thorough.
Who creates a password of 1234? Of-course it broke in in less than a second because the application has a list of dumb passwords. Give a decent test and not a dumb password test.
You didn't include chntpw, which freely resets Windows passwords even on a miniture USB stick or by using a Linux-based distro.
Wow, a four character password of 1234. I stopped reading at that point. Any password cracking program would crack that in seconds. It's one of the first entries in the dictionary. And you think you should be talking about technology?
Please make Galleries the option not default. They are very inefficient due to the re-load of the whole page
First zip one released 2005 Password cracker doesn't support 2007-2010 files Password crack uploaded 2008 You don't even warrant proper sentences - seriously?!! Is this really worth writing about in 2013 ?!!
Yes, the link is not clickable. This prompts me to make this comment... I find the layout of these Five Apps emails VERY confusing, so I ALWAYS immediately click on the link to get to the blog format so that I can quickly scan through it and see whatever the 5 things are. I would certainly vote that the email be changed so that whatever the 5 things are for that particular email is more directly accessible from the email without having to do this. If any of the rest of you readers out there agree with this, please comment. Perhaps folks at TechRepublic will get the message. For the record, I will say that the consider the various technology emails I get from TechRepublic to be some of my best sources of information, so folks, keep up the good work!
Link is not clickable -- Few things in life are more frustrating
Then again i must be old to get it. "May the schwartz be with you!"
The missing link was my oversight. With regard to the gallery vs. blog post question - currently more readers view the gallery than view the blog post - it is a very consistent result. Very soon we will have a new gallery view which should make viewing much more pleasant. We can try an experiment - in the newsletter I can provide a link to the gallery and the blog version - the choice will provide me (and the managing editors) some specific feedback.
Default should be Blog not Gallery! This complaint has been posted for years and they still have not listened. 95% of the comments here are to that and not the posted information.
Me too - I don't like the slideshow either. A few years ago it used to be the other way using a post/blog or whatever. It is a real deterrent at work having to wait for constant reloads
I completely agree! I cannot stand the slideshow or whatever they call it. Blog format is 100 times more user friendly and easy to digest. Not too mention I don't have to wait for the page to constantly reload.
if you have a password more elaborate they are going to tell you to live your life and come back when you are a grown old man... :-)
Which is especially sad for me because I didn't really care about this article I just wanted to get to the five apps blog to look for something else. Oh well.
Should not have had to, but to save others the hassle its: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/five-apps/five-applications-for-easy-password-recovery/1669
If they show you the gallery, they get to show you (and collect for) five times as many ads!
it is a matter of minutes to un-protect it or make the VBA project inside viewable. No tools required for that.
I agree. Zip, RAR, Excel, Word and Powerpoint password cracks can take a lifetime if you use complex passwords.
Saved me a little searching.
Could you be more precise, please?

Last night, Ohio Governor John Kasich signed into law a bill requiring all commercial dog-breeding facilities to be licensed and inspected—for the first time ever in the state's history.
Friends, that's a big step in the right direction for dogs in Ohio, a state known as a haven for puppy mill operators, and where untold numbers of dogs are currently languishing in filthy, barren facilities.
This law is the culmination of more than six years of work by steadfast animal advocates, including the ASPCA and our supporters, and we're very encouraged to see it signed. "Ohio has taken a critical step," says Cori Menkin, Senior Director of the ASPCA Puppy Mills Campaign.
Still, the law doesn't go quite as far as we'd have liked. For one, it doesn't require commercial breeders to provide breeding dogs with annual veterinary care, which is critical to ensuring the dogs are healthy and safe.
"This is just one of the problems that we weren't able to fix, but the legislation is still a step in the right direction," says Vicki Deisner, State Director of ASPCA Government Relations for the Midwest region. "We look forward to working with the Ohio Department of Agriculture to ensure humane standards of care are instituted through the regulatory process."
We've got so much more work to do for puppy mill dogs in Ohio and other states. If you're ready to join the fight, visit NoPetStorePuppies.com to get started.
I just rescued 2 dogs from a NC. Perhaps the gov of NC needs to do this, too
Pennsylvania's puppy mill business may grow as some choose to leave Ohio. Still find it disturbing that the Dept of Agriculture is over puppy mills...dogs are not livestock.
1. PUPPY MILLS: They should limit the amount of times a Mother Dog giving birth, and maintain a record, To many births can damage the health of the Dogs.
2. SHELTER PETS: Stop killing Shelter Pets.
3. Transfer Shelter Pets out of the KILL state shelters to other NO KILL Shelter. Donations can be distributed to the NO KILL Shelters.
I'm so happy to hear the progress in the never ending fight to fix puppy mills!! I had a thought! If I buy a car I can Tess it back to the people who built it through the Vin number! If I buy fire wood the company needs to document where the tree was taken from. If a puppy is sold from a puppy mill why can't we address legislation that it has to be chipped to act like a car bin number to let the new owner be able to trase it back to the puppy mill breeder
I am a Veteran. I support my fellow VETS and to include the K9 HEROS/MILITARY DOGS. Many K9's have served faithfully and loyally to their handlers and to this country. Unfortunately many K9's have also suffered as a result. The K9's should be allowed to retire and to be adopted by their handlers as family pets. You can't break up a good team. The Military Dogs have served this country well, many unfortunately have sacrificed their lives to protect their handlers and fellow soldiers. They deserve respect. Unfortunately thoughs who served in Vietnam were not treated with RESPECT and were left and discarded like garbage. Many were killed off by our enemies in Vietnam. Save our K9 SOLDIERS.
This should be done in every state in the US. They should do Missouri and Lancaster PA next. Many puppy mills.
Thanks from Canada to Governor John R. Kasich for taking action against puppy mills in Ohio! I hope our officials take similar measures here ....
Can't thank you enough for taking a stand on puppymills. You are these animals hero!!!! Please help OHIO be regulated and that know animal suffer under horrendous conditions in the heat or cold. Thank You so very much. Ms. Tammy Rizer in New Berlin, WI who fights against puppymills.

Find Parks and Facilities > Historic Fifth Street School
A piece of Las Vegas history returned to life when the city of Las Vegas Redevelopment Agency reopened the doors to the newly rehabilitated, community-oriented Historic Fifth Street School on Sept. 22, 2008.
Billed as a "cultural oasis" in the midst of downtown Las Vegas' office and legal corridors, the revitalized building is home to an assortment of local arts and architectural organizations. The primary tenants are the University of Nevada Las Vegas Fine Arts Program, including the Downtown Design Center for the School of Architecture; the Nevada School of the Arts (a music education organization); the American Institute of Architects; and the city of Las Vegas Cultural Affairs Division.

The last time I was summoned for jury duty it was mid-week in January, and I made a point of telling the lawyers during questioning that I would have to be home before sunset on Friday. They were not concerned (and I was picked for the jury, and they settled the case an hour later so it ended up not mattering). A friend was recently seated on a jury where the trial ran longer than anticipated and they convened court on Saturday. My understanding is that they were told, not asked, about this scheduling. This made me wonder how one ought to handle this as a juror. I would hope that the answer is not "always try to get out of jury duty" because this is an important civic obligation that we should take seriously if we can do it without violating halacha.
So my question is: how do courts handle trials that run into Shabbat where somebody on the jury cares, and what is the right thing to do as a prospective juror?

The 2008 Honda Fit is a twin of the tested vehicle.
The Honda Fit was introduced in the 2007 model year.
The Fit was evaluated in two 40 mph frontal offset crash tests. In the first test, the driver frontal airbag deployed too early, with the result that high forces were recorded on the dummy's head when it bottomed out the airbag and hit the steering wheel hard, indicating the likelihood of head injuries. This led Honda to modify the frontal airbag deployment characteristics on models produced after November 2006. Also, Honda initiated a safety improvement campaign to modify at its cost vehicles produced earlier.
A second Fit was tested with the modified airbags, and the driver airbag inflated later. Ratings of the Fit are based on the results of the second test, except structural performance is based on both tests.
Measures taken from the head, neck, and chest indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions. Forces on the right tibia indicate the possibility of lower leg injuries.
Dummy movement was well controlled. The side curtain and side thorax airbags deployed during the crash. During rebound, the dummy's head contacted the side curtain airbag, which kept the head away from any stiff structure that could cause injury.
How this test is conducted
Driver — Measures taken from the dummy indicate that a fracture of the pelvis would be possible in a crash of this severity. The risk of significant injuries to other body regions is low.
Passenger — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.
Driver — The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof.
Passenger — The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof.

|Introduction | Canon EOS 100D sensor performance | Canon EOS 100D versus competition | Conclusion
Canon's lightest and smallest DSLR to date the EOS 100D (aka Rebel SL1 / Kiss X7) is unashamedly aimed at the entry-level market. However, boasting a 2nd-generation 'Hybrid' 18-Mpix CMOS sensor and many features of the upper entry-level EOS 700D, this minuscule model is an intriguing proposition. But is it simply a case of cramming in a similar sensor and miniaturizing the rest? Read on to find out. In this review we also reveal the results of the Sony SLT Alpha 37 sensor.
Designed to appeal those that might be tempted by the diminutive dimensions of mirrorless models but want the benefits of an optical viewfinder, measuring just 116.8 x 90.7 x 69.4mm and weighing 407g with battery and SD card, the Canon EOS 100D / Rebel SL1 / Kiss X7 is both seriously small and light in weight. On the inside, the camera sports a second-generation 'Hybrid" 18-Mpix CMOS AF II sensor featuring both Phase/Contrast detection AF, but with a wider detection area than the similar sensor found in upper entry-level EOS 700D, introduced at the same time.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
To website
Canon took the standard Rebel and whittled it into a smaller body, removing only a few features, while adding one very important one: improved live view autofocus. The result is a mature camera for the family photographer that's not a burden to bring along, but which can also serve as a reliable, lightweight backup for a more knowledgeable photographer. Those familiar with Canon SLRs will feel right at home, but those with smaller hands won't feel left out or intimidated. For amateurs, Canon still includes full auto modes as well as Creative Auto mode for simple, jargon-less access to changes like color mode and background blur. Experienced photographers will be able to pick up the Canon SL1 and still feel at home, with a full set of manual and semi-auto modes.

Although Sgt. Major Alfonza (Blue) Williams is a few days away from retiring from the army after decades of service, he is looking to aid his community.
Williams will be retiring on Oct. 1 after 32 years in the army, with intentions to give back to his hometown of Kinston.
Friday's retirement luncheon was a start for Williams, as he paid for the event and invited about 160 senior citizens to enjoy the festivities.
"My whole purpose was to give back to the elders and let them understand I appreciate their guidance and wisdom," Williams said. "My struggle as a child was rough, but their support helped keep me straight and helped me become the man that I am now.
"The projects I grew up in helped me find stability and prosperity. Amidst hopes and dreams, you can do what you want and be what you want to be. The Lord has truly blessed me, and I love it."
Williams' retirement from the army came less than two months after his cousin, Jennifer Wooten-Wicks, retired. Wooten-Wicks — the Mistress of Ceremony — retired on Aug. 9, making her and Williams the first cousins in history to become Sgt. Majors and leave in the same year.
Williams enlisted into the Army on Oct. 29, 1981. He was admitted into the Delayed Entry Program in the Kinston High School JROTC program, becoming part of the first class. After graduating from Kinston High in 1982, Williams headed many leadership positions and assignments, rising to the rank of Sgt. Major in 2007 during his time in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
Retired First Sgt. Ronald Booker served under Williams in Kaiserslautern, and considered him to be a strong supervisor.
"The biggest attribute I admired in Sgt. Williams was the fact he stood up for what he thought was right and never wavered," Booker said. "He didn't care who you were or what your rank was. He always stood firm in his beliefs."
Michael Kornegay has been a friend of Williams since he was six years old, with nothing but positive things to say about him.
"He was a good and honorable guy and friend," Kornegay said. "We played in dirt together, I ate at his mom's house and he ate at my mom's house. All I've known him to be in a life is a respectable guy."
Reginald Little also spent time with Williams since a young age and had similar sentiments.
"All through elementary and high school we hung together," Little said. "We played little league football and were close friends. Even from elementary school I knew he would be a military guy because he always liked giving orders."
Vickie Saunders lived close to Williams and noted his growth and maturation over the years.
"His selflessness stood out for me back then," Saunders said. "He has always been a generous and kind person and now he's coming back here to start a mentoring program."
Seamonia Carter grew up with Williams as well. She said he was a great person, but noted how vocal he could be.
"He was the loudest person in Mitchell Wooten," Seamonia Carter said. "If he was yelling in the back of the place, you could hear him in the front."
Melodee Hicks-Brown graduated from Kinston High with Williams and said she was happy to see someone from her class making such an impact on the city.
"As a classmate, he had always been outspoken and outgoing," Hicks-Brown said. "He loves people and the community and always believed in order. Everyone knew he would join the military and be all he can be for the community, nation and world. We always got along and he is a God-fearing guy.
"The Class of 1982 is proud for someone to make it in the military for 31 years and give back to the community in such a strong way. The plans were put in place two years ago and he's making it happen."
Johnny Shepherd taught Williams social studies at Kinston High School and has been impressed with the work his former student is partaking in for the city.
"This is the first time I've seen a person so grateful for what his whole community did for him," Shepherd said. "President Obama said 'where you are in life is the result of people, leaders and family inspired along the way. We all are dependent on others beneath and above us.' Obama said that and was mocked, but Blue is living exactly what Obama proclaimed.
"Blue opened up something here people should recognize and it's come from his heart. It reminded me of the teachers and community leaders who inspired me. I didn't get here by myself and neither did anyone else."
Annie Marie Williams, Blue's mother, signed him up for the Delayed Entry Program in 1981 and couldn't be any prouder of her son's accomplishments.
"He's my son and I'm very happy for him," Williams said. "He's a loving son and a friend to everyone. If he can help someone, he will and I'm very happy for him."
Wooten-Wicks said Blue Williams could be summed up in five words.
"Leader. Mentor. Passionate. Sensitive. Confidant," she said.

Cheif Sealth's Abdinur Galgalo jumps on Mori Tsuchiya's back after Tsuchiya scored for the Seahawks in the second half.
The Grizzlies tucked away their chances when they presented themselves, then prevented the Chief Sealth Seahawks from scoring on theirs, prevailing 2-1 in the first round of the 3A state tournament at Snohomish High School.
Chief Sealth produced more scoring chances than Glacier Peak. But the Grizzlies took their chances early in the contest to build a 2-0 lead. Then when the Seahawks began controlling play in the second half, the Grizzlies did some last-ditch defending to prevent Chief Sealth from catching up.
"When we got our opportunities we were very dangerous," Glacier Peak coach Shannon Murray said. "They were few and far between as the game wore on. But we managed the game very well. We were very opportunistic today. When we got our chances we punished them for it."
Michael Mikulsky and Branson Corwin were the opportunistic ones who scored the goals for Glacier Peak (13-5-2), the top seed from District 1, which advanced to the state quarterfinals, where the Grizzlies will face Bainbridge. That game is Saturday at Snohomish High School at a time to be determined.
"It feels great," Mikulsky said of the victory. "The chance to win another state title is great. I love it.
"We definitely struggled out there," Mikulsky added. "But in the state tournament it's all about fighting through it. We definitely weren't on top of our game today, but we still fought through, and we ended up with the win."
Mori Tsuchiya scored a second-half rocket for Chief Sealth, the fourth seed from District 2, which finished its season 13-3-3.
"That was a good group," Murray said of the Seahawks. "I think they gave us as much trouble as anyone's given us all year long. But we came out early and surprised them with our ability to counter. As the game wore on their class kind of started to come across, but we defended well."
Chief Sealth had a little more of the ball during the first half, but Glacier Peak got the goals to take a 2-0 lead into halftime.
Glacier Peak needed less than 60 seconds to find the net. Alex Bergstrom's shot from the edge of the penalty box was parried by Chief Sealth goalkeeper Kristian Nilssen. Mikulsky was the first to react to the rebound and he lifted the ball around Nilssen to give the Grizzlies a dream start.
Another rebound goal in the 14th minute made it 2-0. Spencer Pettit's lofted clearance from midfield seemed harmless enough. However, Kai Duan challenged Nilssen for the ball in the air, causing Nilssen to spill it. Corwin bounced the loose ball past a stranded Nilssen to double the Grizzlies' lead.
"We took our chances," Mikulsky said. "They were a great squad and didn't give up many opporutnities. But we took advantage of it, and I'm proud of my team for that."
Chief Sealth was undaunted and continued to press the remainder of the half. But the Seahawks couldn't find the same opportunism as the ball stayed out on a mad scramble in front, then Benjamin Lee put a header off the post.
While the Seahawks began to control the game late in the first half, they seized it completely in the second. However, where the Grizzlies took their chances, Chief Sealth spurned its opportunities. In just the first 12 minutes the Seahawks had three great chances. However, Grizzles defender Adrian Caple cleared the first off the goal line, Elijah Lazo volleyed the second just wide, and Glacier Peak goalkeeper Lucas MacMillan made a triple save on Eduardo Cardoza, Abdinur Galgalo and Lazo, keeping it at 2-0.
It took a special shot to finally get the Seahawks on the board. In the 58th minute Tsuchiya gathered the ball in space near midfield, carried it forward, then unleased a bullet from 30 yards out, finding the far corner to make it 2-1.
Chief Sealth continued to control the ball down the stretch, but the Grizzlies defense, marshaled by Pettit, hung tough to close out the victory.
At Snohomish H.S.
Goals--Michael Mikulsky (GP), Branson Corwin (GP), Mori Tsuchiya (CS). Assists--Name (School). Goalkeepers--Chief Sealth: Kristian Nilssen. Glacier Peak: Lucas MacMillan. Records--Glacier Peak 13-5-2 overall. Chief Sealth 13-3-3.

Can you give any tips to dealing with the thick mucus I have after radiation for oral cancer? It has been 6 weeks and the mucous does not seem to be getting any better.
Valaree Williams MS RD LDN, Clinical Dietitian Specialist, Department of Radiation Oncology at Penn Medicine, responds:
Adequate hydration using decaffeinated fluids can help with thickened secretions. Fluid does not have to be limited to only water, other beverages such as juice, milk, and other decaffeinated drinks count as well. Typically, the recommendation for fluid is 6-8 cups daily but is individualized for each patient. I also recommend discussing with your physician for further recommendations.

Aug 19, 2013 - For post-radiotherapy survivors of head and neck cancer, depression is fairly common, but treatment is underutilized, according to research published online Aug. 15 in JAMA Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery.

When Sarah Risty-Davis was growing up, while other children went to water parks with their parents during the summer, she was going to historic sites with hers.
The lifelong passion for history for the New Bern-area native led her to immediately select history as her major when she entered UNC Wilmington, and later to a career with N.C. Historic Sites.
"I grew up with parents who are historians, and so it was just always there," she said Monday.
For Risty-Davis, Monday marked one week on the job as site manager for the CSS Neuse Civil War Interpretive Center and Gov. Richard Caswell Memorial in Kinston.
She came to Kinston after four years of working as the assistant manager at Somerset Place, a historic plantation in the Washington County town of Creswell.
"It's a wonderful site," she said of Somerset Place.
Before taking on her full-time job, Risty-Davis worked part time as an interpreter and tour guide at Tryon Palace in New Bern and Ft. Fisher outside Wilmington.
Her parents were teachers for Craven County Schools — her father taught computer science and her mother taught history
She took the job in Kinston because of her passion for local history and her desire to be closer to her roots.
"This was a community that I spent a lot of time with and I wanted to come home," said the Havelock High School graduate.
Risty-Davis will supervise a five-person staff, including Operations Manager Morris Bass, Historic Interpreters Holly Brown and David Stone and two maintenance personnel.
She said she plans to bring the community to the CSS Neuse and Caswell sites through expanded programming.
"I think it's really important to draw in as much of a diverse audience as we can and I think we can do that with programming," Risty-Davis said.
The CSS Neuse museum is scheduled to have a limited opening early next year with temporary exhibits. Visitors will be able to see the remains of the gunboat from the mezzanine level while construction workers are installing permanent exhibits on the lower level.
The museum is expected to fully open by next fall. The exhibits are designed to tell the entire story of the Civil War in Eastern North Carolina.
Keith Hardison, director of the N.C. Division of Historic Sites and Properties, said Risty-Davis was hired because of her enthusiasm, her ability to "work with a variety of individuals, a variety of groups" and her experience in working a museum and historic site setting.
"We have to have somebody who is familiar with not only the site operations, but a bona-fide museum operation. … She seemed to be, if you will, the natural fit for this community and for this project," Hardison said.
Risty-Davis will be filling the shoes of the late Guy Smith, who had been manager of the Caswell and CSS Neuse sites. Smith passed away in late May.
She said she had not worked closely with Smith, but said he was warm and friendly during managers' meetings.
"Guy would always take the time to say, 'Hi,' which was really nice because I was the new kid on the block," she said.

Name: Sarah Risty-Davis
Age: 31

Pictured at right: One of dozens of dogs rescued from a dog fighting bust in the Bronx in 2012.
At the request of the Buffalo Police Department and the SPCA Serving Erie County, the ASPCA is on the ground in Buffalo, New York assisting in a multi-site dog fighting raid.
This morning, eight search warrants were executed at several sites in the Buffalo area. In addition to evidence collection, the ASPCA's Field Investigations and Response team is assisting in the seizure of at least 20 dogs from several properties, where they were allegedly being housed and fought. Investigators report that many of the dogs exhibited scars and wounds consistent with fighting, and some appeared to be emaciated and in poor health.
"Dog fighting is a national epidemic, and we are grateful for local authorities in actively pursuing the case and seeking justice for these innocent victims who were forced to live in deplorable conditions and subjected to horrific abuse," said Tim Rickey, Vice President of ASPCA Field Investigations and Response.
The dogs seized during the raid will be cared for by the SPCA Serving Erie County.
In the last month alone, the ASPCA also assisted local and federal authorities in dog fighting cases in Dover, Delaware and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Dog fighting is a felony in all 50 states, and we are working hard to put an end to this brutal blood sport.
Please visit aspca.org/dogfighting for more information on the ASPCA's efforts to tackle dog fighting and what the public can do to help.
Thank you, ASPCA! This is why I will never stop being a monthly donor! You are all angels, thank you!
Thank you for all that you do on behalf of these innocents!
Mahalo Nui Loa Me Ke Aloha for your energy, time & knowledge, we have so much of this dis-turbing, cruel behavior here in Hawai'i
I love you guys, thank you for protecting our dogs!

What is the life expectancy for pulmonary hypertension?
Generally, the prognosis of pulmonary varies depending on the underlying condition that is causing it. For idiopathic or familial pulmonary hypertension, the overall prognosis depends on the severity and whether treatment was instituted. The statistics show a survival of about 3 years in idiopathic pulmonary hypertension without any therapy. Some of the other factors may indicate even poorer prognosis which include severe symptoms, age of onset greater than 45 years, evidence of right sided heart failure, and failure to respond to treatment. For patients with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension who get started on treatment and respond to it, the prognosis is better. Studies are underway to determine optimal treatment regimens.

Ok, so here are some of my ideas that I was discussing with my brother for what they are worth.
The concept of the objective sets (OS) may in time prove to be a cool idea however right now I don't see the point. The reason is that I guess I expected much greater synergy with the objective and the cards in the set. Right now it seems more to be a way to force players to build deck with certain less stronger cards or to force a mix of certain card types (for example, you could not make an all unit deck because there just are not OS that are like that). So, I am curious to see how this plays out and I truly hope that there is a greater plan and we will see more cohesiveness with the future OS between the cards in them and inter-synergy between OSes that are similiar in nature.
I had a thought on the concept of open play. For example, my brother and I were discussing having a house rule where you did not have to follow the rule of OS. You will still have to resource match but you would not be limited to have to take all the cards in an OS but could mix and match. This would be for fun only but the idea kind of got me thinking.
What if FFG decided to have a two tier system for their tournaments. Where tier ONE would be everything as it is in the rules (and the upcoming tournament rules). This would be where the big prizes were for sure. Then have a tier TWO where we could follow the OPEN PLAY concept and the objective set rule for deck building is removed. The winner here might inspire some future combinations of OS seeing what type of cards this person was able to pull together from the complete availability of cards on that side (or that affiliation). Again, this is just tossing out an idea for fun.
I have seen that it appears that multiplayer will be multiple LS against a super DS player (or automated player). I think this is a left over concept from the fact that the game was going to be a cooperative game to begin with and I am not super keen on this. It may work and I am totally liking the concept of multiplayer. But I would much prefer to see that the rules incorporate a MATCHING amount of LS and DS players (ie 2 LS against 2 DS and so forth). Of course, whatever they do, we will use and have fun with.
Anyway, jsut some thoughts. What does everyone else think. I am sure that some will like my ideas (we will call them Light Side people) and some will not (we will call them Dark Side people) … LOL!!!

With Halloween just around the corner, you might be tempted to make your cat or dog a star by dressing him up in the cutest mini-sized costume you can find. But wait—is trick-or-treat apparel really safe for your furry friends?
Our experts suggest putting your pet in a costume only if you're sure he will enjoy it. Some pets love the limelight: wearing a costume and posing for pictures is a blast! Others prefer to stick to their birthday suits for all occasions, and being dressed like a pumpkin for their pet parents' amusement can cause unnecessary stress.
If you decide to have your pet wear a costume, here are some helpful safety tips to keep in mind:
- Your pet's Halloween garb should not constrict his movement or hearing, or impede his ability to breathe, bark or meow. Be sure to try on costumes in advance—and if your furry friend seems distressed, you'll want to ditch the mini-pirate hat and vest.
- Examine your pet's costume and make sure it doesn't have any small, dangling or easily chewed-off pieces that he could choke on. Also, ill-fitting outfits can get caught on external objects or your pet, leading to injury.
- IDs, please! Make sure your dog or cat has proper identification on underneath that cute costume. If for any reason your pet escapes and becomes lost during Halloween festivities, a collar and tags and/or a microchip can be a lifesaver.
For a complete list of animal safety guidelines for this spooky holiday, check out our expert Halloween Safety Tips for pet parents.

Seattle Seahawks fans already knew this, but now the smarty-pants at Harvard have confirmed it: CenturyLink Field provides the Seahawks with the best home field advantage in the NFL.
Most Seahawks fans will probably tell you they are the reason the Seahawks lead the league in opponents false starts since 2005. Andrew Mooney of the Harvard College Sports Analysis Collective says it s more than that.
... you can t separate the noise they make from the environment in which they make it, the stadium. It s possible that fans in Seattle truly go bananas for the Seahawks, but the stadium s architecture (or even its PA system) likely contributes at least some part to pumping up the volume at CenturyLink Field, writes Mooney.
Instead of using home and away win-loss records, Mooney looked at the point differentials at home and away. He cites what he calls considerable evidence that point differentials are more reliable of a team s quality than wins and losses.
Photos:Seahawks go pink for breast cancer awareness
Photos:Sea Gals on soggy Seahawks Sunday
Mooney divided each team s point differential at home and on the road by the number of seasons they have been in their current stadium. The Seahawks have been at CenturyLink since 2002. He did not include teams that have been in their current stadium for five years or less, which eliminates the Colts, Cowboys, Giants and Jets.
The result was this chart. Seattle ends up on top, followed by stadiums in Baltimore, St. Louis, Arizona and Kansas City. Ranking dead last was Gillette Stadium in New England followed by the Superdome in New Orleans.
The Harvard College Sports Analysis Collective describes itself as a student-run organization at Harvard College dedicated to the quantitative analysis of sports strategy and management.

A master plan is a guide for future uses of parkland and may be developed for any regional or community park. A plan results from a collaborative public process, led by park planners and involving residents, business owners, community groups and other stakeholders. Plans guide and ensure the orderly and appropriate development of parks, including such elements as playgrounds, restrooms, sports fields and other recreational amenities. While plans are not law, they do lay the foundation for park maintenance and design standards. We encourage you to get involved in park planning initiatives going on in your neighborhood.
Plans currently in progress are listed below.

Re-Imagine Play is a concept for a new regional play area within Denver's Paco Sanchez Park. The concept is developed around a very simple assertion: rather than the familiar bounded play area that is tucked discreetly into a corner of a park, the PORT/Indie team has imagined a distributed, fully-accessible play circuit with the capacity to activate and re-orient the entire park toward a one-of-a-kind active landscape.

Avenue and Madison, is in the process of replacing the existing playground. At the Civic Association of Clayton neighborhood meeting on October 4, 2012, Denver Parks and Recreation (DPR) and the design team of Mundus Bishop Design presented background information, historic and current context of the park, and preliminary design concepts. Design will continue through January and construction is scheduled to start late winter 2013. DPR will post an update of preferred concept in November.

Confluence Park is Denver's most notable cultural, historic and natural resource in the downtown area. Over 150 years ago with the discovery of gold, the city was founded at this location where the South Platte River and Cherry Creek converge in the Central Platte Valley. The face of the confluence has changed considerably over time as adjacent land uses changed from the original mining settlements to industrial dumpsites. In 1974, the City County of Denver and The Greenway Foundation formed a valuable public-private partnership to reclaim the South Platte River from a place of abuse and abandonment to a recreational and environmental amenity. The area now known as Confluence Park was the first and highest priority of the partnership to reclaim and revitalize it as a vibrant and inspiring place for Denver and its citizens. The park is the heart of an extensive 850-mile bike trail network throughout the Denver metropolitan area; and is surrounded by regional attractions, such as the REI Flagship store, Platte River Trolley, Elitch Gardens and the Downtown Aquarium. The park's points provide many opportunities for people to enjoy summer concerts, picnic, relax on the "beach" and experience the best whitewater kayaking course along the South Platte River.
Since the dedication in September 1975, Confluence Park has evolved with a number of additional improvements and enhancements, the latest of which will be the reconstruction of Shoemaker Plaza and the South Platte River Trail access.

The Genesee and Katherine L Craig Mountain Parks – Park and Trail Improvement Plan will be available to download shortly. Please check back.
The plan is intended to create an overall vision for the future of recreation and preservation for the Genesee Park and Katherine L. Craig Tract properties. Furthermore, this plan will identify standards, prioritize projects, and refine strategies for implementing and monitoring this vision.
This year marks the 100-year anniversary of the creation of the Mountain Park system, and Genesee Park was the first park established in the system. It is fitting to unveil a new park plan for Genesee, as well as the Katherine L. Craig Tract, on the year of this notable anniversary.
How Can You Help?
Throughout this planning process, the City and County of Denver will be soliciting input from a project advisory group as well as the general public to help inform the planning team throughout the planning process for the Genesee Park and Katherine L. Craig properties. After several months of collecting information and meeting with the advisory committee, a series of alternatives will be developed for the properties, resulting in a preferred alternative that will be presented to the public.

The Denver Real Estate Office and Denver Public Schools (DPS) are currently negotiating a proposed land swap that includes 11.5 acres of land located near E. Girard and S. Havana St. Two and a half acres are in the City's real estate portfolio and the difference of nine acres is located in the Hampden Heights Open Space (Hentzell Natural Area) which is part of Denver Parks and Recreation (DPR). The 11.5 acres will be traded for a 40,000 sq. ft. office at 1330 Fox St.. This is intended to be the future site of the City's Domestic Violence Center which has been a high priority for Mayor Michael B. Hancock since his election in 2011. In turn, Denver Public Schools will turn the 11.5 acre parcel into a new Southeast school, funded through the school bond which was passed in the November election.
The land swap contract was approved at Denver City Council on April 1, 2013.
In 2006 the Metropolitan Denver area took an ambitious step towards more sustainable development by launching the Mile High Million (MHM) Tree Initiative. The MHM goal is to plant one million trees by 2025. Thus far 250,000 trees have been planted. There is growing recognition that trees provide long-term environmental, economic, and health benefits critical to vibrant and livable cities. Read more about the Urban Forest Assessment here.

Denver Parks & Recreation is in the planning process for the Washington Park "Loop Road." The goal of this planning process is to make loop road recommendations leading to a safer, more enjoyable amenity within the park.
DPR's approach is to invite the public to three phases of planning:
1) Data gathering
2) Analysis and develop alternatives
3) Future recommendations
Throughout each phase, DPR will publish documents for public review and comment. Below, please find documentation associated with each of the three phases:

FAQ: Proposed Cross-Country Ski Trails
What is the Denver Nordic Ski Association?
The Denver Nordic Ski Association ("Ski Denver") is a membership-based nonprofit organization dedicated providing free, public access to groomed cross-country ski trails in Denver. The nonprofit officially formed in June 2012. More info: www.skidenver.org.
What is the mission of Ski Denver?
Ski Denver's mission is to provide access to well-maintained and sustainable cross-country ski areas in Denver, in order to encourage healthy outdoor winter activity, inspire stewardship of public spaces and enrich local communities.
What is the goal for a pilot project?
By establishing groomed skate trails and classic tracks, Ski Denver hopes to encourage skiers to remain in a defined area of a golf course and away from trouble spots such as putting greens and tee boxes, as well as private property. This will help preserve Denver's terrific public golf courses and also will enable cross-country skiing to remain sustainable in Denver open spaces.
Will skiing be free?
Yes. Skiing will be free for the public to enjoy.
Will this cost the city money?
No. Ski Denver is raising money to buy all necessary grooming equipment and plans to groom trails with an all-volunteer staff. Annual, voluntary Ski Denver membership dues and other fundraising will support grooming operations.
How many ski days do you expect?
The Boulder Nordic Club has a 20-year history of grooming ski trails in Boulder parks. Based on historic averages reported by BNC and data gleaned for the Wellshire area, we anticipate anywhere from five to 20 ski days during the ski season.
Will golf operations be affected?
No. Skiing would only be allowed on days when golf is not possible at the course. Skiing would only occur when enough snowfall accumulates to groom courses with no impact to the ground.
What equipment will be used to groom trails?
Ski Denver is raising money to purchase a snowmobile to groom trails. The snowmobile would operate at slow speeds (less than 10 miles per hour) and only when snow conditions allow for grooming. Ski Denver plans to use similar equipment to that used by Boulder Nordic Club and others that groom trails in a residential setting.
Will there be snowmaking?
There are no plans to incorporate snowmaking at the proposed pilot project at Wellshire Golf Course.
Where will the trails be?
Please refer to the attached proposed course map. Access to trails would begin from the Wellshire clubhouse, and skiers would be encouraged to park at the clubhouse parking lot instead of nearby neighborhood streets.
When will trails be open for use?
Trails would be accessible from dusk to dawn on days approved by Denver Golf.
When will grooming take place?
Grooming primarily would take place during morning hours following a significant snowfall.
Who will monitor ski operations?
Ski Denver volunteers will monitor the course on all ski days and intermittently on non-ski days to ensure skiers are educated about rules and respectful to the course and surrounding neighborhood. Ski Denver will adjust operations as needed in consultation with the City and residents.
Why was Wellshire Golf Course selected as the pilot?
Wellshire Golf Course was selected, in consultation with Denver Golf, for a number of factors. For one, the course is closed more days during winter than most Denver public golf courses and centrally located for public enjoyment. Also, due to its relatively high elevation and terrain, the course retains a relatively high amount of snowfall, allowing more potential ski days than most courses. The rolling terrain is ideal for an enjoyable ski experience for beginners and advanced skiers alike. And trails can be set away from private residences.
Do other cities groom ski trails on public land?
Yes, quite a few. Boulder Nordic Club has groomed cross-country ski trails in Boulder public spaces for 20 years, including at North Boulder Park where the club currently operates. The club allows free public access to the trails it grooms using similar equipment proposed by Ski Denver. Minneapolis has perhaps the most extensive network of cross-country ski trails in the continental U.S. The trails are on public golf courses and in parks and are available to the public to use. Groomed cross-country ski trails are available to residents in cities throughout snowy regions, even places with less annual snowfall than Denver. A Nordic ski center lies just 20 minutes outside of Boston. Others exist on golf courses throughout Colorado, the West, Midwest and Northeast states.
