WASHINGTON A week after a deadly bridge collapse in Minneapolis, President Bush today dismissed raising the federal gasoline tax to repair the nation's bridges at least until Congress changes the way it spends highway money.
"The way it seems to have worked is that each member on that (Transportation) committee gets to set his or her own priorities first," Bush said. "That's not the right way to prioritize the people's money. Before we raise taxes, which could affect economic growth, I would strongly urge the Congress to examine how they set priorities."
About $24 billion, or 8 percent of the last $286 billion highway bill, was devoted to highway and bridge projects singled out by lawmakers. The balance is distributed through grants to states, which decide how it will be spent. Federal money accounts for about 45 percent of all infrastructure spending.
The Democratic chairman of the House Transportation Committee proposed a 5-cent increase in the 18.3 cents-a-gallon federal gasoline tax to establish a new trust fund for repairing or replacing structurally deficient highway bridges.
More than 70,000 of the nation's bridges are rated structurally deficient, including the bridge that collapsed over the Mississippi River last Wednesday. The American Society of Civil Engineers says repairing them all would require spending at least $9.4 billion a year for 20 years. Rep. Jim Oberstar, D-Minn., says his tax-increase proposal would raise about $25 billion over three years.
On terrorism, Bush said he is confident in the ability of Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf to crack down on militants at the Afghan border and cooperate with the U.S.
He said he expected Musharraf to take "swift action if there is actionable intelligence inside his country." Bush refused to address whether the U.S. troops would go into Pakistan without permission from leaders there.
"We spend a lot of time with the leadership in Pakistan talking about what we will do with actionable intelligence," Bush said. "Am I confident they (terrorists) will be brought to justice? My answer is, 'Yes I am.' "
Musharraf, a key ally in Washington's fight against terrorism, is under growing U.S. pressure. But the Pakistani leader is under considerable pressure at home too.
He has seen dwindling popular support amid a failed bid to oust the country's chief justice, Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry - an independent-minded judge likely to rule on expected legal challenges to Musharraf's bid for re-election to another five-year term. Musharraf also has been beset by rising violence in the country, particularly following an army raid to end the takeover of the Red Mosque in Islamabad, an operation that left more than 100 people dead.
Speculation that an emergency could be imminent grew after Musharraf on Wednesday abruptly pulled out of a meeting in Kabul with more than 600 Pakistani and Afghan tribal leaders, phoning Afghan President Hamid Karzai to say he couldn't attend because of "engagements" in Islamabad.
At home, Bush ruled out any bailout of homeowners hit with foreclosures in the form of direct assistance. But he said "enormous empathy" is in order for such people and indicated he was open to some federal help for people to refinance and keep their homes.
"The word bailout - I'm not exactly sure what you mean. If you mean direct grants to homeowners, the answer would be no," the president said.
The delinquency rate on home loans was almost 5 percent in the first three months of the year.
On the controversy of former NFL player Pat Tillman's friendly fire death while serving in the U.S. military in Afghanistan, Bush said "the best way to honor that commitment of his is to find the truth."
He said he expects the military "to get to the bottom" of why Tillman's death was initially explained as the result of enemy fire.
The president described Iran as "a destabilizing influence in the Middle East."

Knight tabbed as Conference Carolinas Player of the Week
September 1, 2009
HIGH POINT, N.C. Pfeiffer Universitys Kash Knight (2-0-0 overall, 0-0-0 conf.) has been selected as the NCAA Division II Conference Carolinas men's soccer Player of the Week during week number one in the 2009 season. Knight assisted on the first goal of the season for Pfeiffer on Thursday in the season opener at Catawba delivering the corner kick that led to the goal. Knight then went on to score the next two goals on breakaways, stealing passes from the defense in the Falcon 4-0 victory.
On Sunday at Brevard, Knight tallied the game-tying goal in the 84th minute leading to an eventual 3-2 Falcon win in overtime. For the week, Kash tallied an impressive seven points to get Pfeiffer heading in the right direction to a great start on the year.
Knight and the rest of the mens soccer team opens up the home portion of their 09 schedule on Friday afternoon against UNC-Pembroke. Game time is 4:00 p.m. at N.E. Lefko Field.

We all know that physical abuse and extreme neglect constitute cruelty to animals—but one little-discussed form of cruelty is abandonment. Though it seems less dramatic than other violations, abandonment is indeed cruelty—and its consequences can be just as dire. For proof, look no further than Hal the cat, an animal whose health was profoundly compromised due to abandonment—and who ultimately found his happiness in a new forever home. Here is Hal's Happy Tail.
Hal came to the ASPCA in July 2013 after being found abandoned in a carrier on the street. Left without care or provisions, his teeth were badly decayed and his mouth was bleeding. Because of significant oral pain, he was unable to groom himself and was so severely matted that his entire body needed to be shaved. Already emaciated, Hal's teeth had to be removed, which forced him onto a special soft-food diet. And that wasn't even the worst of it. During his time on the streets, he contracted persistent Giardia (an intestinal parasite) that likely came from drinking dirty puddle water. The poor cat had been through so much hardship, all because someone chose to abandon him on the street.
After a year in our care, Hal was stronger and healthier. Despite all he had been through, he was a social and affectionate boy, though slightly shy with new people. He was ready for his forever home, and we were eager to find him an adopter. Fortunately, it was around this time that Isabella R. made the decision to adopt a cat.
"I had been checking the ASPCA blog frequently and reading stories about all of these exceptional animals looking for their forever homes," says Isabella. "Eventually, toward the end of June, I decided it was time to adopt." At the ASPCA Adoption Center, Isabella spent two days meeting almost every available kitty, but she was having trouble choosing just one to be her new furry friend. When Hal started meowing suddenly, she asked an ASPCA volunteer about his history. "She told me Hal's heartbreaking story, and afterwards I asked if I could offer him some treats," she recalls. "As I opened his door, he started eagerly meowing again, and I knew that my home was now his home, too."
Isabella adopted Hal that day, and he settled right into her apartment on Manhattan's Upper East Side. "I felt instantly connected and devoted to Hal," says Isabella. "There is nothing I appreciate more than having him curled up on the side of my bed each night, or having him greet me at the door when I come home." In fact, Isabella was so taken with her new buddy that she went back to the ASPCA two weeks later and adopted Hal's new brother, Ari!
After his rough experience on the streets, Hal now spends his days happy, loved, well-fed and cared for. Never again will he experience the insidious pain of abandonment, and never again will he want for anything. Isabella says, "I cannot imagine my home without Hal in it," but we're pretty positive that Hal cannot imagine a better life than the one she has given him.
For more information on animal abandonment, check out our FAQ.
Thank you, Isabella for providing a loving forever home to Hal and Ari. It amazes me the resiliency of these beloved animals who endure the worst kind of abuse and still able to open their hearts to love. Thanks, ASPCA, for the nurturing and rehabilitation to make these tragic beginnings turn into happy endings.

Thank you, Isabella, for giving both Hal and Ari, two gorgeous kitties, such a loving, peaceful, safe, cherished home. It is painful to read Hal's past history. You are his beautiful guardian angel now.
Thank you, Isabella, for opening your heart and your home to both Hal and Ari. May the three of you enjoy many happy, healthy years together. Thanks to everyone at the ASPCA for the loving care you provided for both Hall and Ari.
Thanks to kind people like u Isabella we can make this world a better place -one animal at a time!!
such a great story , love this , thanks for these beautiful words , they both look safe & happy , that is such a thrill ! you are a great lady , thanks again , Zeff' , paris , France.
Having lost my 19 year old kitty recently I looked into adopting a shelter kitty. The kittens are routine neutered and spayed at 4-6 weeks and all research I investigated indicates that fixing any animal before 6 months of age is detrimental to their health in many ways including longivedy and obviously I want my kitties and dogs to love very long healthy lives. The reports actually say breeds like golden retrievers should NOT be fixed until minimum 1 year, and 18 months even more optimum. So, sadly I will have to find a kitty privately
Your research is incomplete. Spaying/neutering at 4-6 weeks is perfectly fine and negatively effects neither health nor behavior. Please spend some more time researching.
Definitely do more research normally shelters wait until 6-8 weeks

BELMONT – On a night in which Belmont Abbey College honored his late son's heroism as a member of the Fire Department of New York, Jim Riches, Sr., had a message for the Crusaders before they played Lees-McRae Saturday night.
Jim Riches, Jr., died during the Sept. 11, 2011 attack on America as a FDNY deputy chief.
Belmont Abbey honored his No. 20 jersey by presenting it to his parents and family. Earlier Saturday, some of Riches' former colleagues and select Belmont Abbey alumni played a charity basketball game against members of the Belmont Fire Department and Gaston County police department.
"It was a great day for the Abbey," said Crusaders athletic director and basketball coach Stephen Miss. "We honored a true American hero and Jim Riches Sr. spoke to our team before the game.
"He told our guys they should value every minute they play because nothing's guaranteed," Miss said. "He said, 'How many of the guys who died that day wish they had just five more minutes.'
"It good to hear from him and a good day for the Belmont Abbey women's and men's basketball teams."
The Lady Crusaders beats Lees-McRae 64-60 in Saturday's opener before the Crusaders beat the Bobcats 98-74. The men's 24-point win was the Abbey's second largest win of the season; The Crusaders won by 25 points at North Greenville in late November.
Basketball standings
With eight teams qualifying for the upcoming Conference Carolinas basketball tournaments, it means three men's teams and four women's team will not advance.
The Abbey's teams appear safely into the tournaments, but each could gain first-division rankings with strong finishes to their seasons.
The Crusaders (13-6, 6-5) are tied for fifth with Coker and Queens (6-5) and only a half-game ahead of eighth-place Mount Olive (5-5). But the Abbey men also are just a half-game behind fourth-place Erskine (7-5), one game behind third-place Limestone (7-4) and two games behind King (8-3). Barton (9-1) leads the league.
The Lady Crusaders (8-8, 7-5) also are in a three-way tie for fifth place (with Coker and Queens at 7-5). The Abbey women are one game behind Mount Olive (8-4) and one and a-half games behind Pfeiffer (8-3). Barton and Limestone share the league lead with 11-1 conference records.
This week, the Abbey hosts Coker in a 5:30 p.m. women's and men's doubleheader. Then on Saturday, the men are off and the women visit Converse at 2 p.m.
Former coach updates
The last Lady Crusaders' conference championship coach resigned her NCAA Division I coaching job last Monday.
Missy Tiber, who led the Abbey women's basketball team to an 81-36 record in four years at the school, resigned as Southern Illinois women's coach and was replaced by former Abbey assistant Adrianne Harlow.
Harlow served as Tiber's top assistant the past 12 years at the Abbey, Tusculum and Southern Illinois.
Tiber was 4-12 overall and 1-4 in the Missouri Valley Conference when she resigned, leaving her with a 19-86, 9-5 record during four seasons as Lady Redbirds' coach. Including her tenure's at the Abbey and Tusculum, Tiber's head coaching record is 186-156.
In Harlow's debut as head coach on Friday, Southern Illinois lost 72-59 to visiting Wichita State; The Lady Redbirds hosted Missouri State on Sunday.
Spring sports
Certainly, the weather over the weekend was winter-like, but the Abbey's spring sports seasons begin for four teams in the coming week.
Scott Brickman's baseball team, which was picked to finish second in the league's preseason coaches' poll, open next weekend in the Francis Marion tournament in Florence, S.C.; The Crusaders play league rival King in a non-conference game on Friday, non-conference rival Claflin on Saturday and host Francis Marion next Sunday.
First-year coach Brooke LeSage's softball team, picked eighth in the league's preseason coaches' poll, opens on Saturday in a doubleheader at non-conference rival Carson-Newman.
And coach Joey Denton's men's and women's golf teams play in tournaments next weekend; The Lady Crusaders play Saturday and Sunday in the Kiawah Island, S.C., Intercollegiate and the Crusaders play next Monday and Tuesday in the St. Leo Invitational in Dade City, Fla.

CK Sheer Beauty Lovely fresh feminine scent. Perfect balance. I also have had and love CK Beauty. I only wish ithe Sheer Beauty had more staying power. And that may be my chemistry. It just seems to fade too quickly.

I hope Calvin Klein continues to make this fragrance. I've had "cologne drama" for years since I decided I needed a switch from CkOne.......I'll be I've tried about 12 different colognes, trying to find "my scent"......and when I found Sheer Beauty, I realized, "It's ME"! I love it, and it's amazing how often people mention this scent on me.....which means to me that it must smell good on me to others too.......I didn't have comments on my other scents. Bottom line: I love this......and hope that it's around for a long long time!

IS Gordon gonna play or just sit on the bench?
You meant 28th.
Gordon might never play for the Hornets again. Just a terrible situation all the way around.

"The only thing Ryno stretches is the 0's on the stat sheet." - BallSoHard
Fans aren't going to be happy but we need to get clear of his salary. It's going to suck to see him potentially excel for another team but it is what it is. You find a way to clear the contract, you draft another young prospect, you look for another Ryan Anderson in FA, and you continue the rebuild.

Crossing fingers that Eric comes down with a fire in his belly to prove to NOLA fans that he's worth it. A couple of games with big time performances and passion would make everyone forget really quickly. We've all already forgotten how good he actually is.
I think Dell Demps tried to play hardball with EG over the summer and got burnt. I understand EG's comment about his love fest for Phoenix. He was showing his hand in the negotiation process. Obviously he had the better hand because he used the Suns to trump the Hornets and they conceded. I truly believe the Hornets has the worst medical staff in the league because this dates back in history. From Peja's back injury (big contract), Gordon's knee (big contract), and Larry Johnson's back (big contract) and so on. These guys had some type of pre-condition injury before signing as free agents or given extensions.
Further, that's the type of core like a Parker/Ginobli/Duncan that you can build a generation of fans around. If we'd have had that Big 3 in place for 8-10 years (it was very possible) the Hornets would be nearly as solid and permanent a fixture on the New Orleans landscape as the Saints and LSU are. It literally almost cost us our NBA team - luckily Stern stepped in and bailed us out.

"I don't know if people know I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"
Not playing does not help EG leave NOLA. Why does everyone think that that's what he's doing? if he really wants to be traded, he should play as many games as possible to prove his durability to other teams that doubt that he can stay healthy. That would benefit both EG and the Hornets. EG gets traded, Hornets get fair market value. That's a win win. Why is it so far fetched that dude is really hurt? What in his past proves otherwise? I agree, he never says the right thing but he is killing his career if he's faking.
He actually has no power this season. I do not think our team is against a tank considering our record is **** poor atm. So if he doesnt play hes not leaving. If this was a season where we are fighting for a top spot maybe, but sadly unless gordon plays a considerable amounf of games we are top 5 lottery. It would only benefit eric to play and he knows that. Having said that hes not forcing his way outta here. Id stop whining about his contract for now bc you will drive yourself nuts.
Seems my buddy saw EG shopping for a house across the street from him today in Belle Chasse. Huge place 3500 sq feet. That's a good sign.
His contract and Peja's have nothing in common but the injuries, and even that remains a ?.
Regardless of EG if that article on page 3 is to believed we have a reason to be concerned. Either our medical staff is wildly incompetent or EG doctor shopped till he found one that gave him the diagnosis he liked and the problem with his knee remains.
I'd go with bad medical staff personally because if Phx thought he was healthy enough to give the max then he prob is imo..
@Jim_Eichenhofer: Dell Demps said Eric Gordon, who is working out on the NOLA hardwood as we speak, has been cleared for full contact.
Saw this on twitter after seeing that he was cleared. From tonight apparently:

Health insurance is required by the University and is a necessity in the United States because of the very high cost of healthcare. When you are registered for classes, you will be charged automatically for the NYU-sponsored Comprehensive Plan. You will remain enrolled in that plan unless you complete the online enrollment/waiver process before the semester deadline.
If you maintain other insurance coverage that is equal to or greater than that of the Basic Plan, you may choose to waive the NYU-sponsored plans.
To avoid being obligated to pay for two health insurance plans, please do not purchase another health insurance plan before it is approved. Your waiver will not be processed until Student Health Insurance Services confirms that your insurance plan meets the University's requirements.
Some examples of comparable coverage include:
1. The insurance company must be headquartered and operating in the US, with a US claims address and customer service telephone number.
2. The insurance coverage must remain in effect from:
|Insurance Effective Dates
|August 21st through August 20th of the following year

People love our Colombia Nariño Dark for its full, rich, creamy body and rich aroma. We roast it a bit darker to mellow the brightness and add a touch of sweet, smoky caramel to the aroma and flavor.

A dark roast for everyone

Comments about The Coffee Bean Colombia Nariño Dark Coffee:
This coffee is excellent for people looking for a darker roast but think the Europeon dark roasts are too strong, or folks who just want a milder coffee than the French Roast they love.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The JRuby team is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 0.9.8.
Download: http://dist.codehaus.org/jruby/
This release has some great improvements:
- Ruby on Rails support. We have been working hard on getting Rails own unit
tests running and over 98% of them now run successfully. We feel things are
running well enough to invite Ruby users to kick the tires and help root out
any final issues.
- Ruby classes can extend concrete/abstract Java classes and override methods
- New Java primitive array syntax
- Reimplementation of String, Numeric classes, and Array to be more correct
and performant
- Significant bottlenecks have been identified. In some cases IO is 6.5x
faster than previous releases. Java included classes are significantly
faster than in the past.
- 225 Jira issues resolved since last release
At the beginning of this development cycle we added Nick Sieger as a committer
to JRuby. Nick has been a welcome addition to the team.
Special thanks to Marcin Mielżyński for his tireless work in rewriting a
number of core classes to be much more correct and quick. His attention to
detail has rooted out many corner cases.
The amount of IRC conversations, mailing list threads, bug reports, patches,
and blog entries in the community has been a great help and our community is
really making a huge difference in how fast JRuby is improving. The amount
of progress is really staggering....

Judge: No recall of wrongful conviction evidence
Tuesday - 2/5/2013, 4:30pm EST
By JUAN A. LOZANO
Associated Press
GEORGETOWN, Texas (AP) - A Texas judge whose prosecution led to an innocent man spending 25 years in prison for his wife's death said he couldn't remember if he had evidence that could have cleared the man, including statements from the couple's young son that indicated his father wasn't the killer, according to a videotaped deposition played in court Tuesday.
A special hearing is being held to examine whether Williamson County Judge Ken Anderson acted improperly in 1987 when, as district attorney, he prosecuted Michael Morton. Morton's lawyers have accused Anderson of intentionally hiding evidence, though Anderson has denied any wrongdoing.
Morton, 58, was released from prison in October 2011 after new DNA tests showed that he didn't fatally beat his wife, Christine, in their north Austin home. Another man has been arrested for the murder.
The special prosecutor in the case, Houston defense attorney Rusty Hardin, has focused on whether Anderson failed to give Morton's trial lawyers a transcript and a report about statements made by Morton's then 3-year-old son. They boy said he witnessed the 1986 slaying and indicated it was a "monster" and not his father who committed the crime.
During the eight-hour deposition, Anderson said he couldn't recall if at the time of the trial he had any documents about statements by Morton's son.
"There's no way in God's green earth that, if that was in my file, I wouldn't have told" Morton's attorneys about the boy's statements, Anderson said in the October 2011 deposition. He was being questioned by Barry Scheck, an attorney with the Innocence Project, a nonprofit that helped secure the new DNA testing.
Anderson, who has apologized to Morton but denied any wrongdoing, said when allegations were made he had suppressed evidence, he wasn't worried because he believed Morton was guilty.
He also said he never had a problem as a prosecutor disclosing evidence that could point to a defendant's innocence, adding: "It's your worst nightmare to have anybody you convicted be innocent," Anderson said.
The video was played during a court of inquiry, a rarely used hearing that is held when officials or public servants are accused of wrongdoing. District Judge Louis Sturns is hearing the evidence and could refer the case for possible prosecution if he determines Anderson committed a crime. Anderson, whose courtroom is just down the hall, has been a judge in the county since 2002.
The new DNA tests, which were conducted on a bloody bandanna found near the Mortons' home, pointed to another suspect, Mark Alan Norwood, who was arrested for the murder in November 2011. He is set to be tried in March for capital murder. Norwood also has been indicted in a separate 1988 slaying of another Austin woman who lived near the Mortons.
Anderson also is being sued by the State Bar of Texas for his conduct in the Morton case.

stressbreaker - adventure sailing in the Andaman Sea Thailand Burma Myanmar
Mergui Archipelago
The Mergui Archipelago comprises hundreds of islands and stretches some 200 miles north from the Thailand border. It is one of the most beautiful and untouched areas in the world and is only accessible by sailboat. The area has some world class Snorkeling and Scuba Diving and is perfect for those who want to have a go. The ancient mangroves that line the rivers and inlets on Lampi Island provide a great opportunity for exploring with Sea Kayaks.
Stressbreaker sailing charter Thailand
The area is truly all the things that postcards promise. If you could paint a picture of paradise, the islands of Mergui Archipelago would be it.
These are the islands you'll never find in any travel agents' window... some 800 of them, almost all uninhabited, covered in rainforest and fringed by white sandy beaches. Most are surrounded by pristine coral reefs and all are lapped by the warm turquoise Andaman Sea. They are preserved in the truest sense, boasting a variety of wildlife including monkeys, wild boar and even Elephants. Bird life is prolific, with over 50 species including Hornbills, Egrets, Kites and Fish Eagles. Burma and Thailandkayak on the beach in Burma
Sailing the Mergui Archipelago is what Sailing Thailand was like 20 years ago; easy, gentle cruising and no other boats!!
Although the islands are almost all uninhabited, there are sea gypsies (Moken) who are indigenous to the Mergui Archipelago.
These people have lived their nomadic existence in the area for hundreds of years, effectively cut off from the outside world.
During the trip we often encounter these fascinating people and have the opportunity to see how they live, despite the modern world.

A towel warmer is a luxurious addition that can elegantly complement any home bathroom and add a warm touch to any chilly morning. There are two main
options in terms of towel warmer heating options: Electric and Hydronic. Electric options utilize internal heating elements to warm things up, and can
either be hardwired into your home, or plugged into a standard outlet. A hydronic towel warmer is typically constructed of pipes through which it
circulates hot water to warm towels. This type of heated towel rack will typically need to be connected to your home's plumbing to have quick and easy
access to piping hot water straight from your home's water heater. It should be noted that both of these types will require a few minutes to heat up when
first switched on, but hydronic models generally warm up a little faster because they are using already heated water from your home.
When it comes to installation, there are also two options to choose from: free standing and wall mounted. These are exactly what they sound like – a
portable option that can be placed on the floor, and a permanently mounted option that is installed on your bathroom wall. Each of these has its own
advantages, and when choosing which might be right for your space, you should consider how much room you have and whether you want to be able to move your
towel warmer. Also, nearly all hydronic towel warmers need to be permanently installed for plumbing connections, so if you particularly want a hydronic
model, that may decide your installation type for you.
Many people have safety concerns when installing a heating element in their bathroom. And although you should always use caution around hot objects and
certainly not allow any children or pets to play with your towel warmer, these appliances are built with safety in mind. They usually feature a maximum
temperature that plateaus around 100⁰ to 140⁰ which is not hot enough to burn with brief contact. Additionally, some towel warmers integrate timers which
can automatically switch them on or off at a specific time, so you can have full control over when the towel rack would be heated.

All Children's Pediatric Rehabilitation Services:
Audiology, Speech-Language Pathology, Physical and Occupational Therapy for the West Coast of Florida
All Children's has been providing direct therapy services for more than 40 years. Thousands of children have been successfully treated in our centers. We provide "direct care" to children with disabilities and their families to help them reach developmental milestones needed to function successfully in everyday environments like home, daycare and school.
Parents depend on All Children's to be a leader in the latest evaluation and treatment methods for children with disabilities—children who deserve the best therapy services available, at centers designed for pediatric care. Our facilities are among the best staffed and best equipped in the nation.
The first years of life are critical to a child's development. We believe children with disabilities can make the greatest progress through direct care provided by our experienced and dedicated licensed therapists. We work together with you, the family, to build a sound foundation for your child's learning and development.
Our center-based therapy services provide:
- Licensed clinicians specializing in pediatrics (occupational therapist, physical therapist, speech language pathologist, applied behavior analyst, or audiologist) for your child's evaluation and services
- Direct family involvement in developing functional therapy goals
- Direct family participation in therapy sessions so families can learn to include therapeutic activities in everyday situations
- Close communication and cooperation with physicians, teachers, psychologists, school-based therapists and other professionals to maximize your child's learning and development
Why are Rehabilitation Services Important?
All children grow and learn at their own pace. Those first smiles, first words and first steps bring parents joy—no matter when they happen. Some children need a helping hand to achieve these milestones. That's when your child's doctor may recommend speech language services, hearing services, occupational therapy services, physical therapy services and behavioral services at All Children's Hospital or our outpatient care locations.
The goal of rehabilitation services provided by All Children's is to help each child reach his or her full potential, and to participate in school and routine childhood activities to the greatest extent possible. We also empower families through involvement and education beginning at the time of their child's evaluation.
Medical problems can affect children's hearing, speech, behavior, and motor skills. Many children who are born prematurely or with special needs may also benefit from rehabilitation services.
After a serious illness or injury, children may lose some of the developmental skills they've already mastered or experience behavioral challenges. Speech language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and applied behavior analysis may each have a role to play in this recovery.

A new "Check us out!" campaign billboard is up on U.S. 70 promoting shopping in downtown Kinston. It's the second in a series to be installed along the southbound lanes around the La Grange area.
The first billboard, encouraging travelers to stop and dine downtown, was erected near the N.C. 903 overpass in November by the Pride of Kinston's Economic Development and Property Committee.
The latest billboard was installed in mid-December near the Walnut Creek sub-development north of La Grange. Both signs totaled about $7,500 and were purchased by Pride, Adrian King, the Pride's executive director, said.
In addition to the two signs on U.S. 70, there are five new folding sidewalk signs on Queen and Herritage streets. A third billboard promoting business investment is planned around spring, if the Pride's budget — from private sources, city of Kinston and income from leases at the Enterprise Center — will allow it, King said.
"What it means to us," he said, "is to build a customer base for the downtown businesses."
While one Herritage Street business owner, who asked not to be named, said she had not seen any new traffic lately, others said they had.
"We've had one of the best Januaries in the last two to three years," Alan Stadiem, manager of H Stadiem, said.
While the venerable Queen Street department store focuses on regional advertising, Stadiem said the billboards are the only different factor he could attribute to the increase of shoppers.
Matt Maroules, a third generation family member of the owners of Christopher's Café on Queen Street, said he's seen a change in the past few weeks.
"Our numbers are still about the same," he said, "but I've seen a lot of new faces."
The billboards direct potential customers to the Pride's website at DowntownKinston.com, which features downtown amenities and promotions. King said there were about 250 hits to website in November.
"A month later, it jumped up to 450," he said. "It nearly doubled the exposure we had on the website."
King figures the holidays likely had some effect on the exposure, but not completely.
"I'm going to contend that it was at least partially due to our billboards," he said.
While the Chamber of Commerce promotes all of Lenoir County businesses, the Pride focuses on the downtown. And competition outside the county is growing.
"We just can't sit around on our hands and hope for the best," he said.
With the impending closing of the Queen Street bridges and a new housing and shopping destination planned along U.S. 70 towards New Bern, King said there has to be more focus on attracting customers and businesses to Kinston.
A Pride subcommittee is looking at other counties to see what's working elsewhere in the state.
"We just can't be caught sleeping at the switch in 2014," King said.

Why go to all these expensive stores and blow slot of money on items you'll love to have but can't buy cause once you see the price you'll say I'll get it another day. Fact is you'll never get it. Thank god for moosejaw,where those same items are at moosejaw for an affordable price with their discounts.
I own North Face products for myself, but was unsure about purchasing for my 7 year old. Yes, she is responsible-- but does a young child really need to own such an expensive coat? I have been beyond pleased with this purchase. She is warm in all but the worst of Midwest winter temps. In that case we layer a North Face Resolve rain coat ( purchased at a great price) over the top and she is good to go. This coat is not bulky on her small frame and plenty warm. It's also durable and washes easily. I am purchasing a similar coat for my soon to be 5 year old also. I'm positive I will be able to hand down the coat to my younger daughter when it is outgrown. Yay for North Face and thanks to Moosejaw for the great pricing!
These were a huge hit with my kids this Christmas. They are very warm and plush. They would wear them all the time if we would let them. Definitely will be return shoppers. Sale was perfect and the free shipping topped it off perfect.
LOVE it !!! So freakin soft and cozy. Jacket is warm and perfect for running around after the mountain, or just hanging out. Looks great on my boyfriends 12yr old! I would highly recommend it to anyone of any age!
When my kids informed me that they were the ONLY kids in school without Northface jackets and that's all they wanted for Christmas, I assumed I would have to bit the bullet and pay full price. I was pleasantly surprised to find a good selection on sale at Moosejaw and with a coupon code ended up getting 3 jackets for essentially the price of 2. No real need to review the quality, since Northface has its own reputation. These are great jackets, I am pleased with the price, and overall very satisfied with the whole process.
Loved it ! I would order it again .

Blood pressure is a measure of how hard your blood pushes against the

heart pumps blood. The bottom number (diastolic) is
the pressure when the heart relaxes and fills with blood. Blood pressure is
high if the top number is more than 140 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), or if
the bottom number is more than 90 mm Hg. For example, blood pressure of 150/85

A woman may have high blood pressure before she gets

If you have high blood pressure during pregnancy, you need to have
checkups more often than women who do not have this problem. There is no way to
know if you will get preeclampsia. This is one of the reasons that you are
watched closely during your pregnancy.
High blood pressure and
preeclampsia are related, but they have some differences.
Normally, a woman's blood
pressure drops during her second
trimester. Then it returns to normal by the end of the
pregnancy. But in some women, blood pressure goes up very high in the second or
third trimester. This is sometimes called gestational hypertension and can lead
to preeclampsia. You will need to have your blood pressure checked often and
you may need treatment. Usually, the problem goes away after the baby is
High blood pressure that started before pregnancy usually
doesn't go away after the baby is born.
A small rise in blood
pressure may not be a problem. But your doctor will watch your pressure to make
sure it does not get too high. The doctor also will check you for

visit. This is one reason why it's so important to go to all of your prenatal
visits. You need to have your blood pressure checked often. During these

sign of a problem.

The only cure for preeclampsia is having the baby. You may get medicines
to lower your blood pressure and to prevent seizures. You also may get medicine
to help your baby's lungs get ready for birth. Your doctor will try to deliver
your baby when the baby has grown enough to be ready for birth. But sometimes a
baby has to be delivered early to protect the health of the mother or the baby.
If this happens, your baby will get special care for premature babies.
If you have high blood pressure during pregnancy
but had normal blood pressure before pregnancy, your pressure is likely to go
back to normal after you have the baby. But if you had high blood pressure
before pregnancy, you probably will still have it after you give birth.

The Pagoda was completed in 1762. The ten-storey octagonal structure is 163 ft high (nearly 50 m).
Architecture and restoration
The Pagoda tapers, with successive floors from the first to the topmost being 1 ft less (30 cm) in diameter and height than the preceding one. The original building was very colourful; the roofs being covered with varnished iron plates, with a dragon on each corner. There were 80 dragons in all each carved from wood and gilded with real gold.
There have been several restorations, mainly to the roofs, but the original colours and the dragons have not been replaced, although the question of replica dragons was discussed in 1979.

JON CARDINELLI writes the fact that the Springboks' produced such a rousing forward performance in Dunedin makes Saturday's defeat doubly disappointing.
There were no expectations. Wins in New Zealand are rare, victories in Dunedin rarer. The All Blacks hadn't been beaten since attaining world champion status. The Bok pack was operating with second-choice, and in some positions third-choice, personnel. If there was an expectation, it was that the All Blacks would wipe the turf with the Bok heavies.
The odds were against the Boks, and yet their response was inspiring. Not since the England series has Willem Alberts played with such accuracy and ferocity. Duane Vermeulen was prominent, as was specialist openside Francois Louw, but then the fantastic performance of the back row was made possible by a much improved tight-five effort.
The Boks outplayed the All Blacks at the collisions, and this allowed men like Louw to challenge Richie McCaw for breakdown supremacy. The old master was forced to employ all his best tricks, and despite his own pack's inferiority at the point of contact, McCaw produced one of his best individual performances in an All Blacks shirt.
It's not often that a side produces such a strong forward showing and still loses the game. It has been the source of many a Bok victory against the All Blacks. Despite the inexperience of the South African eight last Saturday, they had done enough to set the platform for another famous win.
Unfortunately, those heroes wearing Nos 1 to 8 were let down by the men wearing 9 to 15. For starters, the Boks managed to use that forward dominance to play themselves into good field positions. Then the goal-kickers missed out on 21 points between them. That forward dominance and prime field position also led to several try-scoring opportunities, but then the backline failed to convert.
The All Blacks won by 10 points on Saturday when they should have lost by 10. Not many people would have expected the Bok forwards to front like they did, but that doesn't change the fact that a great chance was missed.
Today we should be celebrating an unlikely yet deserved win, against the world champions, in New Zealand of all places. Instead we are left lamenting not just another loss, but another lost opportunity.
Coach Heyneke Meyer has to learn from this experience. In the short term, he should be pleased that his forwards are firing and confident that they can provide that perfect platform in the two Rugby Championship Tests that remain.
But should he feel confident that the goal-kickers and backline can translate forward dominance into points?
It's not a new problem. The Boks lost to the Wallabies in the 2011 World Cup quarter-final despite enjoying the majority of territory. They failed to take every kickable opportunity, and also blew a couple of try-scoring opportunities.
As has been evident in the 2012 Tests, poor finishing is still costing the Boks matches. It's clear that the Boks are investing too much in the kick-chase tactic. I believe it has value and that it's important to win the forward battles and territory, but what good are those minor victories if you can't attack and finish once in the red zone, if you can't obtain the necessary points?
In a sense, Meyer should be pleased with what he saw in Dunedin. There were moments where the Boks looked just as dominant and clinical as they had during the England series (think the second half of the first Test in Durban and the first half of the second Test in Johannesburg). But there is just not enough consistency when it comes to the attack. Too many try-scoring chances are being butchered, and because the Boks' once reliable goal-kicker is out of form, they are losing matches they should really be winning.
Johan Goosen will be under pressure to improve the goal-kicking conversion rate in the coming Tests. There can be no guarantees of an improvement in that respect, but what we can expect Goosen to do is get the most out of that backline, to manufacture linebreaks and ask more questions of the opposition defence.
People may see his selection as a sign that the Boks are departing from a kick-chase strategy that has failed. They'd be wrong. The kick-chase ploy still has value and what South Africa desperately needs is somebody who can complement that territory-gaining strategy with an attacking game that creates and makes the most of opportunities in the opponents' half.
Goosen boasts a fine line-kicking game, and as was shown in the second half of the Dunedin fixture, he attacks the gainline and brings dangerous runners like Frans Steyn into the game.
The backs failed the forwards last Saturday, but Meyer also failed the team by persisting with a flyhalf and goal-kicker who has neither the skill-set nor the confidence to play a more rounded game. That opportunity to win in Dunedin has come and gone, and for that Meyer must also accept some blame.
But what he can take from the performance is that the Bok forwards are capable of out-muscling the best in the world, and that in Goosen, South Africa does have a flyhalf who can play a balanced game.
Goosen's ready to start and should be entrusted with the responsibility for the home leg of the Rugby Championship. Starting Goosen will help the backs match the forwards for momentum gained, and it should also ensure that the Boks make more of their attacking opportunities.

Final Score: Iowa 18, Northern Illinois 17
Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Damon Bullock ran for 150 yards and a touchdown as the Iowa Hawkeyes came back to defeat the Northern Illinois Huskies, 18-17, at Soldier Field.
James Vandenberg completed 21-of-33 passes for 129 yards for the Hawkeyes (1-0), who were able to overcome six sacks of their quarterback on the afternoon. Kevonte Martin-Manley paced all players with six catches.
For the Huskies (0-1), Jordan Lynch completed just 6-of-16 passes for 54 yards, though he was effective on the ground with 18 carries for 119 yards and a score.
Iowa kicked off the game with a 14-play drive that resulted in a Mike Meyer 34-yard field goal midway through the first quarter.
The Huskies responded at the start of the second quarter with a seven-yard touchdown rush from Keith Harris to give them a 7-3 lead.
Meyer added a 29-yard field goal at the 4:23 mark of the second quarter to bring the Hawkeyes to within one, 7-6.
A 28-yard field goal by Mathew Sims extended NIU's lead to 10-6 just before halftime.
NIU opened the second half with the ball but turned it over deep in its own territory. Iowa had to settle for another Meyer field goal (22 yards) to cut the deficit to a single point, 10-9.
The Huskies made up for their miscue on the ensuing drive when Lynch ripped off a 73-yard touchdown run to go up 17-9.
Iowa chipped into the lead early in the fourth quarter when Meyer drilled a 50-yard field goal.
After forcing the Huskies to punt from deep in their own territory, the Hawkeyes capitalized on a short field when Bullock scored on a 23-yard run with just over two minutes remaining in regulation. A failed two-point conversion attempt kept the score at 18-17.
The Huskies got the ball back with one more opportunity to try and get in position for a game-winning score but turned the ball over on downs.
Iowa controlled the time of possession battle by nearly a 2-to-1 margin and gained 23 first downs to NIU's 12.
