Arizona Cardinals
Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez pays visit to Arizona Cardinals practice
Bruce Arians was not the only head coach at Arizona Cardinals football practice Wednesday.
Rich Rodriguez, who is in his second year as the head coach at the University of Arizona, made the roughly 103-mile trek to pay a visit to the pro team from up north.
"Got a chance to watch a little bit of a practice, talk to some guys, saw one of our former players (receiver Dan Buckner) and some other guys I know so it's been good," Rodriguez said of the experience. "And had a little shade tree, you know that's nice; we don't have a shade tree around our practice field, so it gave me some good ideas, too."
While Rodriguez -- along with the assembled media -- appreciated the shade, the coach was not in town looking for landscaping ideas.
No, he, along with some of his staff that included defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel and offensive coordinator Calvin McGee, was in town to learn.
"It's our job, as coaches, from a development standpoint, whether it's watch drill work or how they organize practice or how they structure things," he said, "because nowadays, particularly in days like [Wednesday] when you don't have pads on, what can you do to have a productive practice when you don't have the full pads on?"
The coach, who led the Wildcats to an 8-5 record along with a win in the Gildan New Mexico Bowl last season, said while a lot of teams employ similar concepts, it never hurts to see as much as possible.
Which is why Rodriguez and his staff were in town. Saying it has less to do with increasing a Phoenix-area presence and more with just taking advantage of an opportunity to see how the NFL team does things, the coach said "there is no patent on schemes" so there is always something they could see that would help his team back in the Old Pueblo.
So what, then, stood out to Rodriguez?
"What stood out to me the most is I'd like to have some of those dudes right there, that's what they're supposed to look like, right," he mused. "We've got a few good players, but to see 90 of them, the way they're supposed to look like, that was the first thing that stood out.
"Then the other thing that stood out, obviously from his staff, is you could see everybody's on the same page, which is what you'd expect, but being his first year and how quickly things have come together, it seems like they're right on track."

Tarantino is set to make two versions of the film, one with English subtitles and the other dubbed with out-of-sync English translations common to the kung fu genre, Britain's Telegraph reported Tuesday.
"The next movie will be in Mandarin. I enjoyed shooting all the Japanese stuff in 'Kill Bill' so much that this whole film will be entirely in Mandarin," Tarantino said.
Tarantino is expected to begin shooting the film in early 2005.

Posters and Election Propaganda
A blog dedicated to the examination of communications in election campaigns, with a focus on posters
Saturday, July 21, 2012
Ron Keas has produced what he proclaims to be the "world's first political campaign poster in 3-D." And it promotes the re-election of President Barack Obama.
It incorporates his oil painting of Obama and adds the Lincoln Memorial and one of the President's campaign slogans, "Forward."
With special glasses (available for purchase on Keas's Web site), you will see the effects.
Friday, July 6, 2012
The Obama campaign has unveiled another slogan: "Betting on America." Past slogans for the President's re-election campaign were "Winning the Future" and "Forward" (the latter one present, but de-emphasized, on the Obama Web site).
The new slogan is patriotic and is an attempt to paint the President's policies in a positive way, in contrast to Mitt Romney's alleged "outsourcing" of American jobs overseas, closing American companies, and opposition to the Federal bailout of two U.S. automakers.
Obama's Republican opponents immediately countered the slogan's message, with one, Tim Pawlenty, saying the following: "No one should bet against America. But we certainly shouldn't double down on Barack Obama."
Friday, May 4, 2012
I've already blogged extensively about political campaign slogans, which began in 1840 in the U.S. to support the Whig ticket of William Henry Harrison ("The Hero of Tippecanoe"—during the War of 1812) and John Tyler: "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too." Other good slogans followed, both at home and abroad. In the U.S., there have been some clever ones, including the Republican Party's "We Polked you in 1844; we shall Pierce you in 1852," "Lincoln's "Vote Yourself a Farm" (1860) and "Don't swap horses in midstream" (1864), Harding's "Let's be done with wiggle and wobble" (1920), and Coolidge's "Keep Cool With Coolidge" (1924) [for some more, see this BuzzFeed Politics blog post]; and in other countries, there were the African National Congress's "A Better Life for All" (South Africa, 1994) and the National Action Party's "Enough Already!" (Mexico, 2000).
In the 2008 U.S. presidential contest, Republican John McCain's campaign was characterized by several slogans—one of which was "Country First," which was partially a tactic to distance McCain from President Bush and the Republican Party; partially an attempt to stress McCain's heroism during the Vietnam War; and partially a veiled effort to cast suspicion on Obama's patriotism (as I stated then). Democrat Barack Obama's main slogan, "Yes We Can," was probably more effective, as was his "Change we can believe in"—both being so positive and inclusive.
Back in February of this year, Jeff Mason speculated about the President's new slogan, saying that the Obama campaign was "roadtesting" several, including "Winning The Future" and "Greater Together."
Clearly, there still are economic problems that need to be addressed, and the new slogan would have to connote "resolve" and "leadership." Does "Forward" (which debuted in a seven-minute-plus video to promote President Obama's re-election) do that? Perhaps so, but probably no one slogan would be perfect. Here's what Obama said a few months ago: "Inspiration is wonderful, nice speeches are wonderful, pretty posters, that's great. But what's required at the end of the day to create the kind of country we want is stick-to-it-ness. It's determination. It's saying, 'We don't quit.'"
What about the past buzz words, "hope" and "change"? On those, David Axelroad, the president's key campaign adviser, stated: "This election is also about hope and about change. That doesn't necessarily mean they're going to be in the slogan."
How about Mitt Romney's slogan, "Believe in America"? To me, it appears that his campaign strategists are trying to emulate Ronald Reagan and his 1984 "Morning in America" campaign.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy's campaign has just issued its first poster, now that he has announced his candidacy for re-election. It shows the Aegean Sea in the background with what appears to be a sunrise. The background photo used, as Stella Tsolakidou notes in the Greek Europe Reporter, "has caused bitter comments from his opponents, who have criticized him both for using a Greek landscape instead of a French one and for the way he treated the Greek debt situation."
The poster's slogan, "La France Forte" (A strong France), is reminiscent of past slogans in the country's election campaigns, particularly "Il faut une France forte" (We need a strong France; Giscard d'Estaing, 1981).
The photo used by Sarkozy's campaign conveys tranquility, with the sunrise (or sunset?) adding to the feeling of peacefulness, a visualization of another 1981 slogan—for François Mitterrand—"la force tranquille" (conveying calm and steady strength).
Of course, a number of parodies of the Sarkozy poster were soon issued, including "La Trance Forte" (A Strong Trance) and "La France Morte" (A Dead France). Here are three links for some Photoshopped parodies: Humores y amores, laseptiemewilaya, and leParisien.fr.
French voters go to the polls on April 22, with a probable runoff scheduled for May 6.

Margaret Thatcher—whose Conservative Party won elections three times between 1979 and 1987 when she led it—is the subject of a new movie, "The Iron Lady," starring Meryl Streep. But the tough, imaginative campaigns that brought Thatcher to power were orchestrated by the advertising firm Saatchi & Saatchi and emphasized emotions and issues and did not focus much on Thatcher herself.
In 1979, high unemployment and inflation hurt the ruling Labour government. The billboards and posters, titled "Labour Isn't Working," created by the advertising firm illustrated the joblessness (see my past blog post). They featured a long, snakelike line of people at the unemployment office, and the caption "Britain's Better Off With The Conservatives." TV spots also did not mention Thatcher; rather they showed people trying to cope with high prices, unemployment, and taxes, and speaking positively about Conservative economic policies.
Thatcher and her party won again in 1983 and 1987. After the British victory over Argentina in the Falklands War, and with improved economic conditions, the Conservatives won decisively over Labour (as shown in the film). Saatchi & Saatchi's campaign for the Conservatives, in 1983, featured a poster that compared the Labour Party's policies to those expressed in the Communist Manifesto. The poster's headline read "Like Your Manifesto, Comrade."
In contrast to U.S. elections, it was clear that British voters put less emphasis on the leader of the party. In a 1987 exit poll, voters were asked to indicate "the most important reason which decided their vote," and only 6 percent replied that it was the party's leader. It is not surprising, therefore, that British posters in the 1980s often excluded Thatcher and the opposing leaders (while U.S. posters showed Reagan, Bush, Carter, and Mondale).
More often than not, British election propaganda campaigns have emphasized issues more than the leaders, even popular ones. Party leaders, however, have appeared on posters more frequently in the past two decades. And, ironically, Thatcher has appeared a number of times on opposition posters and billboards—sometimes with only her hairdo on a Conservative Party leader (see an example above).

Cleanup ordered for Children's Pool
Seal colony could be temporarily displaced
A Superior Court judge yesterday ordered San Diego to reduce bacterial contamination at Children's Pool in La Jolla by narrowing a sandy beach that has been taken over by harbor seals.
The excavation or dredging project, which may improve water quality and circulation, would at least temporarily displace a colony of more than 100 seals that has used the cove as a birthing rookery and resting place for more than a decade.
Previous estimates placed the cost of dredging at up to $500,000.
Judge William C. Pate ordered the city to complete the project within six months. Debbie Smith, a deputy city attorney, said it would be "virtually impossible" to meet the deadline.
Before any sand could be removed, San Diego must complete an environmental impact study and obtain permits from federal and state agencies, including the California Coastal Commission. Those hurdles are expected to take at least a year, city officials said.
Michelle Zetwo, a federal marine mammal enforcement agent, said the city must get an incidental harassment permit under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. No dredging or construction activity could occur at the cove during the seals' pupping season from January though April, she said.
At yesterday's hearing, Pate denied the city's request for more time. Donald McGrath, executive assistant city attorney, said the City Council won't have a chance to consider its legal options until it meets in closed session Sept. 9.
Pate said the city has "studied it to death and taken no affirmative steps to do anything." Pate's ruling resembles an appraisal of the situation by federal Administrative Law Judge Parlen McKenna. In an April ruling, McKenna scolded the City Council for "hanging its citizenry out to dry . . . by failing to resolve this festering dispute."
San Diego Councilman Scott Peters, whose district includes the disputed cove, said: "Once a court rules, we have to follow the law. I'm sure we will."
In his 31-page ruling, Pate found that San Diego has failed to comply with a 1931 tidelands grant that transferred ownership of the one-acre cove from California to San Diego.
Under the terms of the grant, the city is required to "manage and maintain" the cove as a safe swimming area for children, the judge said.
However, when waste from the seals began polluting the cove in 1997, making it unsuitable for swimming, the city failed to undertake "any meaningful steps to return Children's Pool to an unpolluted, safe and usable state," the ruling states.
It continues: "Because of the unhealthy condition of the sand and water, the Children's Pool area is not suitable for use as a public park, bathing pool for children or a recreation area."
In addition, Pate contends that city officials improperly deterred the public from using the beach by erecting warning signs and a rope barrier to separate seals from people.
The rope barrier, which was put up in 1999 to keep people a safe distance from the seals, was ordered removed in 2004 by the City Council. At that time, the council adopted a "joint use" policy granting people and seals equal access to the cove.

Latest Polar vortex Stories
State Farm® helps drivers stay safe on the road and be ready for the unexpected BLOOMINGTON, Ill., Nov.
For all those hoping the Polar Vortex was merely a frosty memory of winter 2013/2014, we have some bad news: It's back. And it's returning next week.
Analysis of data collected by NASA's Cassini mission has revealed the presence of a large, cold, toxic cloud swirling above the south pole of Saturn's moon Titan, according to research published in the October 2 edition of the journal Nature.
ENERTIA® CEO Michael Sykes announces three new Extreme EX models of the Award-Winning Green kit-home series, with beefed up thermal mass for more inertia, and reflective hidden internal surfaces
The latest sign that the change of seasons has started a cascade of radical changes in the atmosphere on Titan is an ice cloud taking shape over the south pole.
A combination of extreme cold temperatures, man-made chemicals and a stagnant atmosphere were behind what became known as the Arctic ozone hole of 2011, a new NASA study finds.
Atmospheric researchers at the University of Utah have uncovered a Rube Goldberg-like mechanism that begins in the polar stratosphere and drives global weather patterns through a chain of interactions, according to a new report.
The dramatic melt-off of Arctic sea ice due to climate change is hitting closer to home than millions of Americans might think.
Check the fine print on many cans of hairspray or shaving cream these days, and you'll probably find a reassurance that the product you are holding contains "No CFCs or chemicals known to harm the ozone layer."
How many individuals and corporations have lost money and jobs over theoretical ozone depletion? Why have natural variations never been considered as a possible reason for seasonal ozone loss?
- To befool; deceive; balk; jilt.
- An illusion; a trick; a cheat.

The U.S. Embassy in Jordan has warned Americans of a "possible imminent threat" in the country's Red Sea port of Aqaba and has recommended avoiding the city for the next 48 hours.
The embassy said on Wednesday it has received "credible information" of a potential terrorist attack in the Gulf of Aqaba region. It provided no details and embassy officials declined comment.
Jordanian security officials said they had no information of a pending attack.
The embassy recommended Americans delay all nonofficial and personal travel to Aqaba for "at least the next 48 hours."
It also urged Americans living in Aqaba to avoid the downtown and port areas.
Last month, a rocket struck the centre of Aqaba, the second such attack in months, killing one Jordanian and wounding four.

Mark Shuttleworth Resigns as Canonical CEO
Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Ubuntu and CEO of Canonical has announced the transfer of his post to Canonical COO Jane Silber.
Shuttleworth intends to concentrate his energy on product design, partnerships, customer contact and relationship building. The current CEO reported in his blog that these are the areas he thrives most in. Furthermore, these are points where he can use his abilities and influence most effectively. Shuttleworth intends to transfer the reigns to Jane Silber, who has been a trusted colleague of his since the beginning (more or less), in the year 2004, at Canonical. Silber is the chief operating officer and also lead the Ubuntu One project. Due to her change of positions, the post of COO and leadership of Ubuntu One will be open and the new occupant will take on both duties.
Mark Shuttleworth considers his commitment to Ubuntu very high: "I am more committed now than I have ever been." His positions at the Ubuntu Community Council and in the Ubuntu Technical Board will not be affected by his change of position at Canonical. Shuttleworth and Silber answered questions in an interview regarding the switch.

Giving new meaning to the term, Down Under, Gina Liano says Lydia Schiavello's new cook book is going to be "all about her vagina," and then tells Chyka Keebaugh she's saying that because "she doesn't cook c**k, does she? It's the same thing!"

Lydia also moans and groans over being on a helicopter, "Hearing the propellers, hearing the horsepower in a motor of a helicopter just SO turns me on. Yeah … fast and hard," she said in an episode where the six stars fly out to Mission Beach.
And Andrea Moss is no fan of Lydia's, screaming, "You are crude, you are vulgar, you are confrontational and aggressive! I actually get offended even looking at you!"

'Fantastic Four's' Kate Mara Joins Ridley Scott-Produced Sci-Fi Thriller 'Morgan'
The Fox film marks the feature directorial debut of Ridley Scott's son Luke Scott.
The Fox film marks the feature directorial debut of Ridley Scott's son Luke Scott.
A purported plot summary for director Josh Trank's franchise reboot details Doom's motives, and the origins of the Fantastic Four's powers Updated!
The first still from Dito Montiel's post-apocalyptic Man Down features Shia LaBeouf and Jai Courtney using their Marine training to find Kate Mara.
The House of Cards and Fantastic Four star is reportedly mulling over a role opposite Man Damon
The Transformers veteran joins forces with Oscar nominee Oldman for a post-apocalyptic thriller.
The Invisible Woman explains she didn't read any Fantastic Four comics because director Josh Trank told her the movie isn't based on an existing story.
Although director Josh Trank's franchise reboot isn't listed on Fox's convention schedule, a report insists the cast will show up in Hall H.
Writer Simon Kinberg expects the film's tone of the Fox reboot to fall "somewhere on the spectrum between Spider-Man and Chronicle."
Johnny Depp stars in Wally Pfister's directorial debut, an A.I. thriller that lacks the necessary spark of humanity.
Acknowledging she doesn't know much about the film or the source material, the Sue Storm actress says, "I think we're making a very grounded version of a superhero film."
As screen tests begin for director Josh Trank's film, a contender emerges for the role of Ben Grimm: Cemetery Junction star Christian Cooke.
With the rewrite complete, Josh Trank's franchise reboot is expected to test such actors as Kit Harington, Richard Madden and Saoirse Ronan, but Michael B. Jordan already may be set for Human Torch role.

West Hollywood Cosmetic Dentist, Dr. Poneh Ghasri, is Now Offering Patients Brighter Smiles with Zoom Whitening
A brighter smile no longer means sensitivity or damage to one´s teeth enamel with safe and effective whitening treatments now offered by Dr. Poneh Ghasri, West Hollywood cosmetic dentist.
West Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) September 24, 2012
While a human´s teeth are extremely durable and can stand up to years of abuse, any major damage to the gums or the outer enamel could potentially be irreversible. This can be particularly difficult when an individual comes to find out that their whitening treatment is in fact the cause of damage. In order to make these whitening treatments more effective and safe than ever, West Hollywood cosmetic dentist, Dr. Poneh Ghasri, is now offering the advanced Zoom whitening system that will improve the tone of one´s teeth without the damage or discomfort.
Zoom has quickly become one of the most highly sought-after whitening treatments that are currently available today due to its effectiveness and its safety. Unlike other bleaching services that may require harsh chemicals, Zoom is a careful blend of whitening agents and anti-sensitivity ingredients that make it desirable to patients with dingy or discolored teeth. The treatment can also often be carried out in less than an hour, meaning that patients could have a smile that is 8 shades brighter within a day.
West Hollywood Zoom whitening specialist, Dr. Poneh Ghasri works with a team of multi-specialty dentists that assist patients throughout Southern California. They offer a number of popular dental treatments and services including Invisalign aligners, dental implants, Lumineers, basic checkups, teeth cleaning, and fillings.
A dingy or discolored smile is something that quite a few individuals will be forced to endure at some point in their life, but this does not mean that they must resort to ineffective and potentially harmful whitening services. With the Zoom system now offered by Dr. Ghasri, teeth whitening specialist in West Hollywood, a bright and healthy smile can be created in less than an hour.
About Poneh Ghasri DDS, Dentist West Hollywood
Dr. Poneh Ghasri is a graduate of the UCLA School of Dentistry and has over a decade of experience as a trusted cosmetic dentist throughout the Los Angeles area. She works closely with a team of experienced and friendly dentists that offer services ranging from chairside whitening to full mouth restorations with porcelain veneers.

Cheryl and Doug's studio was the absolute perfect home base for a long weekend getaway to do some cross country skiing at Lapland.
We arrived on a snowy evening and Doug was generous enough to take time away from his other work to plow the driveway for us!
The studio is VERY large and spacious! The king bed is unbelievably comfortable - I slept like a rock! - and the couch and love seat were a great place to relax and kick our feet up at the end of a great day of XC Skiing.
The weather reached about -6 while we were visiting the area, but the studio was warm and toasty the entire time. The charming gas fireplace kept things cozy and added to the great ambiance.
To top it all off - I forgot my phone charger in the studio the day we checked out and Cheryl was kind enough to call me and arrange to have it shipped back to me! What a thoughtful and generous gesture! We would definitely recommend someone to stay in the studio!
My husband had surgery yesterday, and we wanted a quick getaway before going to the hospital. This studio apartment was the perfect place to stay, and it was very close to Lapland Lake, where I went skiing. Cheryl and Doug are very warm and welcoming, and it was so nice to find a plate of homemade Christmas cookies for us! The apartment is spotless, and beautifully decorated with many Adirondack themed artifacts! (where did you get the moose clock, I loved it!) The bed, as noted in other reviews, is extremely comfortable, and there is a great hot shower! The location is perfect for skiing and dining as there are a couple very nice restaurants close by. Thank you Cheryl and Doug for the wonderful week-end! It was such a treat to stay at your beautiful studio apartment!
We had a very lovely stay with Doug and Cheryl over the Labor Day weekend. They were friendly, accommodating and the space was gorgeous. We came from the hustle and bustle of Brooklyn (about 4.5 hours away), and left completely relaxed after a weekend of hiking nearby, eating at some local spots in the surrounding area and finding a few wineries to indulge in.
The best part of our stay were the massages Cheryl arranged for Saturday morning. Our masseuse arrived on time and gave personalized service to the both of us! It was such a treat! While I waited for my massage, I sat on the gorgeous balcony sipping coffee and reading leisurely.
I would recommend this stay for a lovely time Upstate.
The pictures say it all--the apartment is spotless and new, outfitted with everything you might need for a cozy romantic getaway. The location was perfect for us as we had family staying close by, and we were able to have our own place to come home to. The river views are great from your private balcony for morning coffee and evening cocktails. Nice sheets and towels, great comfy bed. Awesome shower!
Doug and Cheryl were friendly and responsive hosts, making our stay trouble free and comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful stay--from the cucumbers from your garden to the fresh flowers and chocolates. We would love to plan another trip to go tubing again.
We had the pleasure of sampling both the loft and the cabin on two separate visits to this property. Doug and Cheryl are the consummate hosts while the river out their door offered both atmosphere and activity throughout our relaxing stay. Although the loft was more romantic and cozy, the cabin offers far more opportunity to cook and enjoy home cooked meals. Doug was kind enough to allow me to use his kayaks on the river and this saved me lots of hassle and expense involved with renting. They clear a path from their property to a rocky beach on a river island across the street. This offers an exceptionally private area to relax and enjoy the river either with a fishing pole or just playing in the water. We would look for any excuse to return to this property on a frequent basis. Many thanks to both Doug and Cheryl (and their dogs Beau and Molly) for a wonderful stay and chance to unwind in a home away from home in the course of a long drive from Texas.
a perfectly inviting and cozy haven! Cheryl and Doug are wonderful hostesses who put so much thought into making the studio very welcoming with an adirondack theme. We love to cross country ski and downhill ski so it was so nice to come in to the studio after being out in the cold all day...the wood stove, cozy furniture, small kitchenette and big cozy king size bed make it hard to leave. We will be back for our 3rd visit! :)
Located in the foothills of the Adirondacks in the town of Benson. This studio/suite has a great location over looking the Sacandaga River and is on a quiet dead end road. It's just above the huge 29 mile long Great Sacandaga Lake and only 4 miles from the quaint Village of Northville. You will feel that you just stepped back in time with it's charming appeal. All your needs and more are very close by with a grocery store, restaurants, antiquing, a great Adirondack gift store, five and dime, an old fashion hardware store, ice cream parlor, a gourmet coffee shop, an adorable new boutique,gas stations, banks and a farmers market (Fridays) in the warmer weather.
Hike right from this studio/suite to a beautiful waterfall 1/2 mile away, or through the woods to a beaver pond about 1 mile away. There are many hiking trails close by for easy to challenging hikes.
Winter season is quite beautiful and Lapland Lake cross country ski resort is only 6 miles away.
Oak mountain down hill skiing is 30 minutes away

My daughter will be 3 in may ,the only two words she says is momma and nana
Comments (6)
What therapies has she been doing? Occupational therapy seems like something she would benefit from.
Sometimes having a diagnosis can help put thingss in perspective and give you a place to start.
My older son has some delays and autism with severe ADHD. And we are just now in preschool starting on some accommodations for him. He has some social troubles and he can be overly silly to the point where he can't focus.
I wish you luck!
I too can relate to your situation
My dd turned 3 in January this year and only started walking a month before her 3rd bday
She too has low muscle tone/hyper mobility caused by a connective tissue disorder as such that is all we know no known confirmed name/diagnosis
This time last year she had 2 words, ball/star we had been doing speech therapy and then 5 months ago she started talking
I live in Australia, So not sure of what services are available where you are, but I would seek out some other answers.. Yes at 3 with only 2 words that is a speech delay and what causes it is still
Unknown for you
The drooling business, we only just stopped massive drools, so I understand what you mean, more than likely this Is a result of the weak muscles around the mouth caused by the low tone
What therapies do you do? How often?
After 10 years ttc, my darling Sophie arrived 21 January 2010!
I don't think there is anything wrong with you wishing for a diagnosis out of frustration. IMO it is a human need to have answers, even ones we really don't want, just so we can understand.
If you are worried I would look into a second opinion or third... not sure where you are in the process. There has to be a doctor(s) out there that can find an answer or possible reason for the delays.
Don't give up. Hang in there and do what you need to do.
Married 11/2008

Have you had any genetic testing? Coloboma can appear with some syndromes, but I do not know all of them (I do not even know most of them)-- and I do not know your child. I have a coworker whose son has DiGeorge syndrome, and he had a coloboma early on. He has some definite facial characteristics though. He is currently younger than your daughter, and his prognosis is unknown since DiGeorge can vary in severity/presentation. In my coworker's case, the chromosomal deletion was not inherited. I am also familiar with CHARGE syndrome, but your docs would have probably performed genetic testing if the familiar features were present. In my experience, it has some obvious physical features.
I worked with special needs kids in the past when I was a teacher, and I now work in a children's hospital in behavioral research. I have seen kids with similar characteristics to what you have described, but there were also other characteristics that differed. She actually sounds more advanced than some of the kids I work with-- eg. I have one little girl with Rett syndrome who has not spoken at all. She loses skills that she has gained. She is functioning on a 6 month level at age three according to my last assessment. She does not acknowledge mom or dad when they come into a room. Just hearing momma or dada can really be a blessing.
I would definitely seek other opinions asap if you are unhappy with your care. Sometimes you have to do a lot of internet searching on your own and find the appropriate specialists. When you have a child with special needs, sadly, you have to really advocate on his/her behalf. From what I have seen, it can be very draining. I do know that having a diagnosis can be helpful or comforting to a parent, but it is often best to not form an "official" diagnosis before age three anyway. In some cases, kids are inaccurately labeled with a diagnosis. I had another friend who had to visit a specialist in California to diagnose her infant son's rare disorder-- due to a spontaneous genetic mutation as well. Let's just say that we live far from California.
Is your daughter currently receiving all therapies-- physical, speech, occupational, educational? If she is advancing, even slowly, that is a good thing. I would always advise many opinions and not giving up though. Good luck. I wish that I knew more helpful information.

Implications of philosophy and culture for contemporary mathematics
CULTURAL FOUNDATIONS OF MATHEMATICS — The Nature of Mathematical Proof and the Transmission of the Calculus from India to Europe in the 16th c. CE: C. K. Raju; Pub. by Center for Studies in Civilizations (CSC) and Pearson Longman, 482, FIE, Patparganj, Delhi-110092. Rs. 1600.
This book is a part of the major project undertaken by the Center for Studies in Civilizations, with Professor D.P. Chattopadhyaya as the Chairman of the Governing Body along with eight other distinguished professors. It is Part IV of Volume X (and the 25th published, of 54 planned parts) in the History of Science, Philosophy and Culture in Indian Civilization.
Science, philosophy and culture (or religion) are an eternal braid. The attempt to assimilate the vast amount of literature that is available on "mathematical proof" on the one hand and the "transmission of the calculus from India to Europe in the 16th c. Christian Era (CE)" on the other, to present a cogent and coherent picture in a volume of 477 pages by the author is a commendable effort.
It is interesting to read passages such as the following: "'Greek' notion attached a mystical significance to numbers, so that in 16th century Europe a typical challenge problem to the mathematician was "Is unity a number?" Expected answer, 'NO' – unity is not a number! 'Indian' notion has no such hang up. A more subtle problem related to the question non-representable (Sunya, both infinitely large and infinitesimally small, later zero)."
'Math wars'
The author opines that the 'First Math War', during the period 10th to 16th century was between the Abacus and Algorismus methods. The advent of calculus is due to Leibniz and Newton, according to the prevalent Western lore. The author states that in the 'Second Math War', key results of calculus were in astronomy and mathematics texts of Aryabhata, Bhaskara, Nilakanta, Sankara Variayar, Jyestadeva, and were transmitted from Cochin to Europe by the Jesuit Matteo Ricci. The Indian notion of "Pramana" is different from the European notion of proof, since it permitted the empirical and rounding off procedures. European certitude did not allow the neglect of even the smallest quantity. Dedekind's 19th century did semi-formalisation of real numbers and this led to the set theory of the 20th century, completing thereby the formalisation of real numbers. Thus, a long time elapsed before calculus was assimilated in India.
The following is a sample of an interesting construct: "Plato clearly thought of mathematics-as-calculation as distinctly below mathematics-as-proof, and this Platonic valuation led to the implicit valuation of pure mathematics and superior to applied mathematics, and to the resulting academic vanity of pure mathematicians, who regarded (and still regard) themselves as superior to applied mathematicians..."
No conflict
"In traditional Indian mathematics, however, there never was such a conflict between "pure" and "applied" mathematics, since the study of mathematics was never an end in itself, but was always directed towards some other practical end. Geometry, in the "sulbasutra", was not directed to any spiritual end, but to the practical end of constructing a brick structure... Rationale was not valued for its own sake. Hence, rationale was not considered worth recording in many terse (sutra-style) authoritative texts on mathematics, astronomy, and timekeeping. On the other hand, rationale was not absent, but was taught, as is clear, for example, from the very title "Yuktibhasa, or in full form, the GanitaYuktiBhasa," which means "discourse on rationale in mathematics."
C. K. Raju misses an opportunity here (or anywhere in this volume) to refer to the notebooks of the 20th century mathematical genius, Srinivasa Ramanujan, whose 3254 entries in his celebrated notebooks did not provide proofs, and the entries were to him, perhaps, sutras, discovered by his untutored mind! "Computers have precipitated a third math war by again greatly enhancing the ability to calculate in a way regarded as epistemically insecure — according to Western metaphysics. The suggested correction is to recognise the distinct epistemic setting of mathematics-as-calculation and teach it accordingly." This is a sample of a debatable point and several such points have been raised by the author in this treatise.
Finally, it is noteworthy that this commendable effort has been provided in an excellent quality production by the publisher and is recommended for the discerning historians and history-oriented and mathematically inclined readers. It is an essential reference book in libraries the world over.

Latest Sara Rizvi Stories
Parents and their teenagers often have differing opinions when it comes to spring break, especially regarding travel plans and safety.
Parents shouldn't worry if their toddlers are two steps behind other babies their age when learnng to walk.
Learning to walk is a complex skill that should not be rushed, and there is usually no need for a parent to become overly alarmed if his or her infant takes longer to begin walking than other kids.
With record-breaking heat and humidity, parents, coaches and caregivers should keep a close watch on children for early warning signs of heat-related illnesses, said a Baylor College of Medicine (www.bcm.edu) pediatrician.
Children may complain of many ailments in an attempt to stay home from school, but pediatricians at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston can help parents with advice on how to make the decision to stay or go.

Sen. Warner courts businesswomen in Leesburg
Twice in remarks leading up to the introduction of Virginia's senior senator who was in Leesburg to speak with Northern Virginia businesswomen, hosts of the event referred to Warner as a future president.
Warner swiftly deflected the half-joking calls for a presidential race.
"This is an intelligent group, well-informed," Warner said in his warm-up to the audience. "… Leesburg, Loudoun County, kind of the intellectual pinnacle spot of Virginia."
A former governor of Virginia elected to the Senate in 2008, Warner spoke on the issue he's "obsessed" with, the federal debt and deficit, as well as efforts to expand business opportunities to women through crowdfunding, raising capital for new start-ups through the Internet, and his desire to see the state expand Medicaid coverage through the new federal healthcare law.
Warner said women specifically, who often have a more difficult time than men raising funds and capital for new businesses, could benefit from crowdfunding, which is currently being examined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
"It is harder to raise money and raise capital if you are a woman entrepreneur or a minority entrepreneur than if you're a white guy," Warner said to a concurring crowd.
One female audience member quickly chided, "we kind of knew that."
"[Crowdfunding] could open up a whole universe of people who might be interested in your passion and vision in a way that's unprecedented," Warner said.
The senator began his private career as a businessman and entrepreneur who accumulated millions through the technology field and venture capital.
On sequestration, the federal across-the-board budget cuts set to take effect March 1, Warner said Republicans and Democrats have to come together to produce a smarter plan. He supports completely wiping sequestration off the books and coming back with a comprehensive proposal considering targeted cuts and specific revenue increases.
"Defense is going to get cut, but do it in a smarter way," Warner said. "But if we don't get it done in the next two weeks… there's a stupid way and a less stupid way to do these things. Let's at least do the less stupid way.
"They set [the current plan in budget cuts] up on purpose to be the stupidest possible."
Phasing up the age for Social Security, other restructuring of entitlements and investments in infrastructure all need to be part of a grand bargain on the budget, Warner said. Just one approach – raising revenue or cutting spending – isn't going to turn it around.
Warner visited the Northern Virginia Technology Council in Reston earlier Friday with freshman Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.).
Following the Leesburg event, Warner sat down for an interview with the Times-Mirror, where he critiqued members of both parties who take absolutist stances and are afraid of telling constituents the tough truth.
"I think people are tired of politicians just telling them what they want to hear," Warner said.
Warner serves as one of three Democrats in the bipartisan Senate Gang of Six working on solutions for the federal deficit, which currently sits at nearly $17 trillion. Warner said he'd be comfortable with cutting around $5 trillion off the deficit in the next decade.
As he has done often, Warner blamed both parties for Congress' failure to find compromise and solutions on dealing with the debt.
Despite the country's struggles, however, Warner said America is still the strongest nation in the world, and he wouldn't trade places with any other global superpowers.
"Our economy is so poised to take off," Warner said before repeating a Winston Churchill quote. "You can always count on the Americans to do the right thing … after they've tried everything else."
Clarification: This story has been updated to read that Sen. Mark Warner would like the federal government to reduce the federal deficit by $5 trillion over the next decade, not have the deficit amounting $5 trillion in 10 years.
Top / Government / Politics /
Would it be discrimination if funds were harder to come by for women and miniorities? Pandering to a crowd of women with falsehoods is typical of the politician is Mark Warner. I wonder if he tells the Chamber of Commerce the same thing but replaces women and miniorities with white men, do you think?

"From a scientific point of view, it can be said he [Thoreau] documented for the first time how ecological succession works … The mechanism was animals and weather. Squirrels carry acorns so oak trees replace pine when the pines are cut down. And pine seeds blow over to replace the oak." – Richard T. Forman
I started writing this piece about two weeks ago. I was talking about succession over trend with a colleague and she asked me to put down my thoughts about how that worked. And so I started…and as I was writing, the question of trend began to appear in the press and this story seems on one hand less important and on the other hand more important. I'll let you be the judge. In any case, thank you for coming here. Thank you for reading:
There is a small stop at milepost 330.2 on the Natchez Trace Parkway called Rock Spring Nature Trail. I've been going to this spot on the Natchez Trace since I was a little girl. Perk, my maternal grandfather, used to take me (and all of the cousins) there en route to Colbert Ferry park on the "other side" of the Tennessee River from our home. From there, we would launch his small fishing boat and run the trotline of baited hooks for catfish (more on this boat and Perk's trotline coming soon).
Rock Spring is a natural aquifer that merges with Colbert Creek where this nature trail now stands. The creek is a small, meandering stream of rare beauty (see the photo above)—named after George Colbert—who ran the Ferry that crossed the Tennessee River along the Trace before the days of a bridge.

In COLA bump, not all fed retirees treated same
Tuesday - 10/25/2011, 10:18am EDT
By now you've heard — if you're a retiree, or about to be — that you're getting a cost-of-living adjustment in 2012.
The 3.6 percent increase is the first raise since 2009, following two years of mostly flat inflation.
David Snell, the director of retirement benefits at the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association, joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Amy Morris to discuss how the COLA bump affects feds differently.
Federal employees who retired under the Civil Service Retirement System, which was phased out in 1984 — receive the full COLA. However, retirees under the newer Federal Employees Retirement System will receive 1 percent less than the full amount, under an OPM formula for calculating feds' COLAs.
It turns out, since 1975 there have only been two years the Social Security Administration hasn't given a cost-of-living increase — the last two.
In the 1980s, Congress delayed and even rescinded some adjustments. However, in recent memory, COLA increase have become dependable.
"For a while now, COLA's have been pretty steady, because inflation has been pretty steady," Snell said.

How will COLA affect feds who aren't retired?

Readers may recall we posted on this case at the trial court level last year. Plaintiffs alleged that vinyl chloride released from Rohm & Haas's specialty chemicals manufacturing facility in Ringwood, Illinois contaminated the groundwater in and around McCollum Lake Village, as well as the air in the Village. Plaintiffs alleged that between 1968 and 2002, the vinyl chloride evaporating from the shallow plume blew over the Village, contaminating the air in the Village and causing some Village residents to breathe varying amounts of it. Plaintiffs claimed that the levels of vinyl chloride in the Village air were higher than the background level.

Top EU official: Cyprus bank rescue new template
Tuesday - 3/26/2013, 3:48am EDT
Associated Press
BRUSSELS (AP) -- Inflicting losses on banks' shareholders, bondholders and even large depositors should become the 17-country eurozone's default approach for dealing with ailing lenders, a top European official said Monday.
Banks' owners and investors must be held responsible "before looking at public money or any other instrument coming from the public side," said Jeroen Dijsselbloem, who chairs the Eurogroup gatherings of the 17 eurozone finance ministers.
The eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund earlier Monday granted Cyprus a 10 billion euro ($13 billion) bailout that foresees dissolving the country's second-largest bank, wiping out its bondholders and inflicting significant losses -- possibly up to 40 percent -- on all deposits larger than 100,000 euros ($130,000).
EU officials have previously stressed that this measure, a so-called bail-in, was a "unique step" in Cyprus. That's because of the size of country's banking sector -- almost eight times the economy's annual output -- and the capital structure of its lenders, which rely almost exclusively on deposits instead of bonds.
"If there is a risk in a bank, our first question should be 'Okay, what are you in the bank going to do about that? What can you do to recapitalize yourself?' If the bank can't do it, then we'll talk to the shareholders and the bondholders, we'll ask them to contribute in recapitalizing the bank, and if necessary the uninsured deposit holders," he said in an interview with the Financial Times and Reuters.
Dijsselbloem's office confirmed the remarks.
In the past, nations like Ireland have dumped billions of taxpayers' money into rescuing their banks, fearing that forcing owners and depositors to take losses would roil markets and spread uncertainty. That has drawn howls of outrage as pension cuts and tax hikes were used to spare rich overseas investors from losses.
European officials had that in mind when they decided, in Cyprus' case, to shrink and restructure the banking sector, reducing the amount of money European and Cypriot taxpayers would have to pay.
But forcing losses on large deposits could encourage investors to pull money out of weaker southern European economies to more stable nations in the north, like Germany.
That concern was evident in markets. The euro currency, used by more than 330 million Europeans, rose against the dollar to about $1.30 in the morning on the agreement on a bailout for Cyprus, but tanked below $1.29 -- its lowest since November -- following Dijsselbloem's remarks. European stock market indexes also lost their earlier gains, with bank shares hardest-hit, particularly in financially weak countries like Italy and Spain.
Dijsselbloem said the new approach was more just because it was about safeguarding taxpayers' money and force losses on banks, their owners and investors instead.
"The consequences may be that it's the end of story, and that is an approach that I think, now that we are out of the heat of the crisis, we should take," he said in the interview.
Later Monday, after the whirlwind of nervous market reactions, Dijsselbloem issued a terse clarifying statement, saying "Cyprus is a specific case with exceptional challenges which required the bail-in measures."
"Macro-economic adjustment programs are tailor-made to the situation of the country concerned and no models or templates are used," he added.
Deposits in Europe are guaranteed by a state-backed deposit insurance scheme only up to 100,000 euros ($130,000). The bailout program for Cyprus marks the first time in Europe's three-year-old debt crisis that large deposit holders -- wealthy savers, business people or institutions -- will be forced to take losses.
If holders of large deposits were to start moving their savings away from banks in southern Europe, those lenders could quickly be in need of additional capital, possibly pushing them to seek support from their governments. But nations such as Portugal, Spain, Italy or Greece already have huge public debt loads, which would make it difficult for them to recapitalize their banks.
With his comments, the Dutchman, who took the helm of the Eurogroup only in January, also dashed hopes that Europe's rescue fund might one day provide rescue loans directly to banks. The ESM is in theory due to be able to directly prop up ailing lenders once the bloc has moved toward a so-called banking union, including centralized oversight by the European Central Bank, sometime next year at the earliest.
That was meant to be a key component of Europe's response to its debt crisis as it would break the link between weak banks dragging down the finances of already heavily indebted governments.

It's monster vs. monster in the endless maze of tiny passages... and waiting in the Labyrinth Brothers' decks is the Gate Guardian, lord of the underworld, one of the most powerful monsters of all!
Story and art by Kazuki Takahashi.
