There is a good article in today's National Law Journal about the positioning going on by plaintiffs lawyers in the mounting litigation arising from the "sudden unintended acceleration" problems in vehicles manufactured by Toyota. As we have reported, Toyota has since announced a plan to fix the problems. In the meantime, Congress has been holding hearings into whether Toyota knew about the problems earlier and whether the recalls are solving the problem.

2004 950 Adventure Suspension stretch
ok been readint his section in the HOW
and trying find the need for the spacer he lists from superplush
p/n 50180288
I was looking through parts manuals and from what i can see all i need is the hydro stop and inner tube for forks and the shim rebound for the shock
all cheap enough parts.
so my question is. i happily change oil, seals and spring in my forks including a set of 48mm wp forks for my last bike
so when i go to upgrade my springs if i get the heavier springs as required for my weight, the longer rear shock spring for my weight i should be able stretch my own sspension easily and on the cheep
fair enough it wont be re valved but i can live with that for the mean time
am i missing something hre as seems too easy
i cheked part manuals and from break down there are only 4 different parts for both bikes 1 of which is just the rear spring
you will need a nitrogen refill for the rear shock as the rebound shim requires the shock body to be taken apart.
ok so front should be fine as i reubild them before
rear never done so if gave it to a specalist they prob refill it cheap enough
I've re-valved my own forks but I'd love to know how to take the shock apart. All I really want to do is put a softer spring on it and change the oil...no special tools required (other than the nitrogen recharge)?
Saw lad sellibg nitrogen re charge kits here as he had them in garage
Might look it up again and get someonr show me how do it
motion pro do a nitrogen fill valve and gauge
so need find cheap supplier for nitrogen and a regulator
The thing I like about working on my own suspension is I can service it more regularly. Most of the specialized tools could be had and pay for themselves in just a couple of services. I even buy fork and shock oil in 5 gallon quantities.
Nitrogen tanks are a lot like propane. Initial cost is high to pay for the tank, but refill/tank exchanges are cheap. A small bottle will last you a very long time as well if all you use it for is charging shocks.
Issue i have is there are about 2 places in ireland that do the work but are not cheap due to low volumes in ireland
Id like learn myself so i can do it anythime on my own bikes and othets
Msy look buting few shocks from breakers dirt cheap to practice on

Born: April 19, 1970
Tel Aviv based guitarist and oudist Amos Hoffman started playing guitar at the age of 6, and oud a few years later. He studied guitar privately, and attended the prestigious Rubin Academy of Music in Jerusalem. His search for new musical experiences led him first to Amsterdam, and then to New York City, where he played jazz with both established musicians like Dennis Charles, Evelyn Blakey and Juma Santos and up and coming talents like Jason Lindler, Omer Avital, Sam Newsome, Jay Collins, bassist Avishai Cohen, Jorge Rossi and Duane Eubanks. He also began a more formal study of Middle Eastern music with Lebanese oud and ney player, Bassam Saba.>...

I think you misinterpreted what I said, what I want is to avoid having garbage collecting been seen as mandatory, such that those who want to maintain old cruft still can.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data revealed on Monday a surge in popularity of wireless internet use across the country.
Since December last year, there has been a 51 per cent increase in subscribers to wireless, the service that allows customers to access the net at places away from their home such as coffee shops and airport lounges.
A highly competitive market has seen such mobile wireless subscriptions spike from 1.3 million in December 2008 to 2 million in June this year. They now account for 27 percent of all non dial-up subscriptions, up from 20 per cent six months ago.
The ABS figures on mobile wireless do not take into account connections via mobile phones. Overall there were 8.4 million active internet subscribers in Australia at the end of June, with dial-up connections falling rapidly.
The trend towards higher download speeds continued, with 57 percent of subscribers now using a download speed of 1.5 Mbps or greater, compared with 51 percent in December 2008.

30.03.07 - Britains most avoided fighter John ODonnell believes that he should be in the shakedown for the British welterweight title this summer. The standout 21-year-old confirmed his credentials with an impressive win over fellow undefeated puncher Stuart Elwell last Friday to claim the English championship on the Hennessy Sports and GoldenPalace.com Cobras Hood event at the Nottingham Arena. It seems, however, that in order to get a tilt at the British he will have to wait for the Championship to be contested on two more occasions..
Current champion Kevin Anderson meets Belfast veteran Eamonn Magee in Kirkcaldy next month and the next challenger is already being lined up, with Ross Minter meeting Colin McNeil on the 26th May in London in a final eliminator.
I am a bit upset about this whole situation, admitted ODonnell, who has sent Minter and Matthew Hatton running for cover, amongst others. Where no-one would face me, I have been keen to fight a final eliminator. My promoter Mick Hennessy even asked for the Elwell fight to double up as one.
Instead Ross Minter has been nominated. I feel that I am more deserving; I have been prepared to fight anyone. He had the English Title, but never defended it. He pulled out of two fights against Alan Bosworth with different injuries.
Then he was meant to defend against me, but gave up the title instead. It feels a bit like hes been rewarded for avoiding me. It doesnt really make any sense. Now I have to sit here and watch him in a final eliminator.
Im not even sure he appreciates the opportunity; hes got a final eliminator scheduled and hes boxing on that Contender show tonight. If anything goes wrong with that, I want to jump in as the next in line. Minter has pulled out of fights before.
If his fight with McNeil is going ahead, we are going to ask the Board to put me in another final eliminator straight away, with the winner fighting for the title within 90 days of the next two defences happening.
ODonnell added: I would love it to be against Matthew Hatton. His team have talked about making this and that eliminator for a while now, but everything goes quiet when my name is mentioned.
He wants to get real. I have seen the talk about him fighting Gatti when hes been avoiding me. Ive had half the fights Hattons had and I am four years younger, so come on here I am.
Whilst ODonnell showed his undoubted potential last time out, he claims he could have knocked out the previously unbeaten Elwell.
He was tough and kept coming at me, said John. I thought I could have taken him out if the ref had warned him again for holding, but he didnt. He warned me about going in with my shoulder and I stopped it, but Elwell was holding from the fourth so I couldnt get to him.
He started well and Ive got the habit of starting slowly but I caught up with him in the middle rounds and he couldnt stand the pressure. I started unloading combinations and once I let my hands go, no one knows where there coming from.
I hurt him in the fourth and he was all over the place, but he just held from then on.

Japan's Oversight Board Faults Operations, Controls at Big Four Firms
The CPAAOB had been conducting inspections at each of the firms since last fall and reported that it had found problems with management oversight, quality control and independence at all four. The Big Four affiliates are responsible for auditing 80 percent of listed firms in Japan, Reuters reports.
The recommendation that the FSA issue business improvement orders is the first punitive measure CPAAOB has taken since it was established in 2004.
The FSA will issue the business improvement orders within a week, requiring each of the firms to submit a plan for improving their operations and internal controls, Mainichi news says.
The oversight report did not cite specific examples of problem audits, but the finding could diminish overall confidence in the accounts of Japanese companies, Reuters says. "It is very important to the economy that auditors carry out their duties appropriately," Financial Services Minister Kaoru Yosano said at a news conference.
When the suspension of ChuoAoyama was announced in May, Pricewaterhousecoopers International, (PwC) said that while it would support its affiliate, it would form a new partnership in Japan, PwC Arata. PwC Arata, which has applied for registration with the Public Accounting Oversight Board in the United States, began operating on July 1 and is expected to have 80 partners by year end, AccountancyAge.com reports.
Sam DiPiazza, CEO of PwC International, said that the firm faced "a number of significant challenges in Japan," according to AccountancyAge.com, but added he was confident that PwC's strategy would improve audit quality and serve the needs of all of their clients in Japan and elsewhere in the world.
Toyota Motor Corp. and Sony are among the companies that have announced they will leave ChuoAoyama for PwC Arata during the suspension period.
In an interview with timesonline.co.uk, Taizio Nishimuro, the president of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE), said that the punishment of ChuoAoyama had caused turmoil in the TSE and predicted a destructive shake-up of the Japanese auditing industry because of the actions of the regulatory agencies.

Cycling: UCI backs third-party audit on role in Armstrong scandal
Published on Jun 14, 2013 4:42 PM
LAUSANNE, June 14, 2013 (AFP) - World cycling's governing body has backed a proposal to carry out an independent audit of its role in the Lance Armstrong doping scandal that rocked the sport.
The International Cycling Union (UCI) said in a statement on Thursday evening that its management committee approved the idea during continued talks with the World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) on its handling of the Texan rider at a meeting in Bergen, Norway.
UCI president Pat McQuaid indicated the likelihood of such a move in an interview with AFP in May and that Wada, who had previously criticised the disbanding of an independent commission to look into the matter, were also in favour.
Wada and the US Anti-Doping Agency, whose devastating report last year exposed Armstrong as a serial drug cheat, refused to work with the commission.

Publishers Weekly
Incredibly vivid lead characters, earthy writing and an intense love story buoy the third entry in Hoyt's Georgian-set romance series (following The Leopard Prince), which kicks off with Lucy Craddock-Hayes's page-one discovery of Viscount Simon Iddesleigh in a ditch near her home, naked and beaten almost to death. Though her blustery father fears for Lucy's virtue, they take the battered man in, and the insightful, beautiful Lucy is soon as drawn to the handsome, witty gentleman as he is to her. But Simon's mission, to avenge the death of his brother, pulls him in two opposing directions: his soul-deep need for revenge and his desire to protect Lucy. The exquisite romance, flawed slightly by a dearth of historical details, is touched by Hoyt's mesmerizing storytelling; in a less talented writer, the love story could easily have been overwhelmed by the revenge subplot, but Hoyt skillfully uses Lucy and Simon's internal and external conflicts-including the threats against their lives-to enhance her love story.

Received 29 May 1987
In 1932 John S. Hall, a
graduate student at Yale, built a caesium-oxide photoelectric photometer giving
an effective wavelength of about 8000Å.
With this he observed the Cepheid zeta Gem. Later Dr. A. L. Bennett used
the same equipment to observe many variables. His light curves for only AO Cas,
S Sge, and RT Aur were published. When Bennett was called for war work by the
Navy he left behind observations on 30 long period variables and a few others
of short period. As he did not return to astronomy after the war this wealth of
observations has never been published.

Today, the islands look almost exactly like they did then, with one notable difference: Some of the islands are merging. Images taken from space and posted on NASA's Earth Observatory Web site last month showed distortions in the original map of islands released by Nakheel.
The pictures highlighted fears that the islands would disappear, subject to erosion, as they sat undeveloped, while environmentalists warned rising sea levels would eventually sink the million-dollar sandplots.
Eco-activists at Greenpeace say The World's own environmental impact would contribute to its vulnerability. The group denounced the project and others like it that popped up across the region, from Bahrain's Two Seas project, shaped like a seahorse, to Beirut's Cedar Island, a massive project similar to Dubai's Palm Island, but in the shape of Lebanon's signature tree.
"These projects destroy the marine ecosystem. They disrupt the nursery areas and migration patterns, and they create a great deal of pollution," said Raefah Makki, from the Greenpeace regional office in Beirut.
Environmental officials in the UAE also quietly expressed reservations about the islands and their sustainability, though they declined to be quoted, given the sensitivities around a state-backed real estate project.
Nakheel responded to environmental concerns by launching a initiative for coastal sustainability called Blue Communities. As suggestions surfaced that The World islands were eroding, it issued a firm denial.
"Speculative reports suggesting that The World islands are sinking are wholly inaccurate," company spokeswoman Amina Grimen said last month.
As for the distortions seen from space, she said the islands "were merged purposely to create land for specific developments, and the shape of other islands was changed at the request of owners."
Owners themselves have had concerns about the islands' sustainability, with engineering designed to protect against the elements.
"I don't believe the islands can be [undeveloped] left for long, there will be natural erosion," said de Miese, the owner of Greece.
"I plan to circle the island with a hard edge, like wrapping a ribbon around a cake to keep it from falling apart. Builders who don't do that may have problems in the long-term."
One upside to the slowdown, he says, is that with fewer projects going up on The World, each project is more distinct. Already The World offers something unique, all the best of mainland Dubai without the bustle of tourists and excess skyscrapers.
"The World can't be overbuilt like the mainland," said de Miese. He said it would have to be "low-density," unlike other luxury developments, like Nakheel's Palm Island, which have become a frenzied crush of homes and apartment buildings.
"If only 10 islands are built it will be a success," de Miese said. "If all of the islands are built it would be a disaster."
"If you look at Dubai, everything is here," Josef Kleindienst, owner of Heart of Europe, told the UK's Telegraph. "It is like going to a bar where there is wine and beer but no champagne. This is the champagne."

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Boeing
(BA - Get Report) and Procter & Gamble
(PG - Get Report) headline a parade of large-cap companies reporting earnings before the bell Wednesday. Today we'll profile these companies' stocks, providing you with information on how to trade them.
When we profile stocks before earnings we include two "Crunching the Numbers" tables (see Pages 3 and 4). The first table covers technical analysis. The second table covers analysts' earnings per share estimates and where to buy on weakness and sell on strength.
Let's start with individual profiles and then look at the tables.
Boeing ($127.82, down 6.1% year to date): Analysts expect the airplane manufacturer and Dow Jones Industrial Average component to report EPS of $1.54 before the opening bell Wednesday. The stock tested its 200-day simple moving average at $123.08 last Monday through Wednesday.
The weekly chart is positive with a five-week modified moving average at $126.75. Semiannual and annual value levels are $123.73 and $102.41, respectively, with a quarterly pivot at $128.41 and a monthly risky level at $145.53.Delta Air Lines (DAL) ($33.94, up 24% YTD): Analysts expect the airline to report EPS of 29 cents before the opening bell Wednesday. The airline reached an altitude never seen before at $36.52 on April 2 then hit an air pocket as low as $30.54 on April 15. The weekly chart shifts to negative given a close this week below its five-week MMA at $33.28. A quarterly value level is $31.77 with weekly and monthly risky levels at $35.71 and $36.39, respectively. Dow Chemical (DOW) ($48.75, up 9.8% YTD): Analysts expect the provider of chemicals, plastics and agricultural products to report earnings per share of 70 cents before the opening bell Wednesday. The stock set a multiyear intraday high at $50.96 on March 25 then traded as low as $46.56 on April 15.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): Of all the animals in the world, the fly is the most unloved. It annoys us with its zigzag buzzing. When it lands in our food, we lose our appetite, knowing it carries residues of the disgusting things it has preyed on. But in the creation story of the Chelan Indians, the fly is given a heroic role to play because of its speed. In modern parlance, people say they'd like to be a fly on the wall in a place where an interesting conversation takes place. And the ancient Roman poet Virgil had a pet fly that saved him a fortune. When the fly died, he gave it a large funeral and declared its final resting place a cemetery, thereby avoiding a sizable land tax through a legal loophole. In the coming weeks, Capricorn, I predict you will find similar redemption in an influence you have always regarded as comparable to the fly's.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18): When rock star Courtney Love asked me for advice about her relationship with rock star Trent Reznor a few years ago, I told her the same thing I'll tell you now: Empty your brain of everything you think you know about the person who both excites you and drives you crazy. Drop all of your fantasies and projections and expectations. As soon as you do, you will clearly see that person is not a diabolical angel whose main task in life is to rouse your obsessive thoughts but rather a flawed human being who has only a partial resemblance to what you imagine him or her to be. When you achieve that enlightened state, then and only then will there be even a shred of hope that you two can have an authentic, vital, mutually enriching relationship.
PISCES (Feb. 19March 20): According to my analysis of the astrological omens, Pisces, the week ahead will be overflowing with paradox. Lucky danger may be headed your way, or a risky opportunity that will feel like an ordeal even as it brings out the best in you. I also wouldn't be surprised if you had encounters with benevolent trouble, exacting love, and weighty silliness. To thrive in the midst of these rich anomalies, you should suspend any prejudices you might have against puzzling evidence. Don't just tolerate the contradictionslove them.

Re: SOF3 Payback Feedback Thread
The patch also fixed the flickering shadows problem. That was a big deal for me so it's a step in the right direction.
Can you change the resolution? Argh what a shame, is the action any fun at all?
Yes you can change the resolution. Yes the action is fun. It's pretty shoot em up. I actually like it better than BlackSite Area 51. Now that the flickering shadows are fixed, if it also had FSAA, I would have no problem with it. BlackSite Area 51 on the other hand is very jerky and it gets tiresome. SOF Payback runs very well.

Today's Interviews:
Executive Director of the Veterans Health Council
Vietnam Veterans of America
Vietnam-era veterans sue the Defense Department over its treatment of their post-traumatic stress. They want the military to re-evaluate their cases in light of current understanding of PTSD. Tom Berger is executive director of the Veterans Health Council at the Vietnam Veterans of America. It's organizing the plaintiffs in the lawsuit.
Merit Systems Protection Board
You might have put last year's furloughs out of your mind, and who can blame you? But for one agency, your bad memory is its present struggle. The Merit Systems Protection Board is working through more than 32,000 furlough appeals. Chairman Susan Tsui Grundmann says most of the cases are now assigned to administrative judges and are in the hearing process. The board is also asking Congress for an additional $6 million in 2015, on top of the $42 million allotted by the White House.
Director in the Public Sector Practice
A week ago we learned the numbers. Now we are learning the thinking behind the President's 2015 budget request. The Government Printing Office has released the Analytical Perspectives, which describe some of the government strategies the administration has in mind. Jitinder Kohli, a director in Deloitte's public sector practice, gives his analysis.
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
The way agencies develop regulations is about to change. Senators and the White House agree, the time is ripe to transform a process too long and complex. Federal News Radio's executive editor, Jason Miller, has details.
DoD Reporter
Federal News Radio
The Freedom of Information Act is just one law. But each of the 99 agencies subject to it has its own rules for responding to open records requests. Federal News Radio's Jared Serbu reports, that's about to change.

Why do we encourage children to drink milk? What does it provide nutritionally?
Why do we encourage children to drink milk? What does it provide nutritionally?
Milk is a more complete food source than many other single food items. Besides being a good source of water, milk contains the carbohydrate lactose. Milk is also a good source of protein, providing all nine essential amino acids. In processing milk, vitamins are typically added which add to its nutritional value.

First of all, we put up our Christmas tree tonight. FUN! Growing up, my family always bought a real tree and I thought that was the best. And when my mom threatened to buy a fake tree instead I can remember protesting GREATLY. Fake trees are no fun! But now O and I have a fake tree. I can see why my mom wanted one. Much easier. :)
Anyway, we had fun decorating and Roxy had fun being a pest.
You might not be able to see but this is the Best of the US ornament we all got at this year's race. Cool! Other ornaments include a runner, Mario Lemieux, a cross, a few snowflakes and lots of red and purple balls. ;)
In other news I am majorly itchy. Like WOW am I itchy. Serious itch. Bad itch. And yes, I do clean myself, but the itch (of course) is from winter. And cold, dry air when I'm running and riding. And of course, chlorine. I can take care of the body parts that I can reach (face, legs, arms) with lotion but my back...AHHHHHH! I find myself rubbing up against things trying to scratch an itch that will just not be scratched. And the other night laying in bed my back was so itchy I actually couldn't fall asleep! Welcome to winter right?! :) I really need to invest in one of those back scratcher thingie majigs...
Speaking of winter, today I really wanted to ride outside. I do my long rides on Saturdays so if I can avoid the trainer at all costs, I try. But today, I just couldn't do it. It was 23 degrees, which I think I would have been okay with, but the windchill was 15 and that made it feel soooooo much colder. When we were driving home from the pool this morning (before I had riden) I was watching the flags whip in the wind and I knew it would be brutal. Still, I gave it serious consideration before I decided against it. Bummer. So the trainer it was. But I survived. ;) Perhaps next weekend it will be a bit warmer.
And my flip turns - still going strong! I think that for me, I just can't give myself an option. No open turns, they aren't even a choice anymore. So hopefully it won't take too long to get a little better at the flip turns. I already feel better with the oxygen deficit when I'm swimming easy (as in I don't feel like my head is going to explode when I push off the wall :) but swimming hard is still tough for me. My solution thus far is to just surface a lot sooner than I would have if I did an open turn, but I hope to improve upon that!
Have a great Sunday everyone!

All three chips have dropped down from a QuickPath Interconnect and triple-channel memory controller to a Direct Media Interface and dual-channel memory controller. But don't freak out; this is more a loss of future-proofing than anything else given the minute performance differences between current dual- and triple-channel memory configurations.
An integrated PCI Express graphics controller on the Lynnfield CPUs can either deliver 16 lanes of bandwidth to a single PCI Express 2.0 videocard or split this connection into two x8 lanes for an SLI or CrossFire setup. Although it's a cut from the full 32 lanes (for a dual 16x or quad-8x configuration) provided by Core i7's X58 chipset, the bandwidth reduction should only affect those crazy enough to SLI or CrossFire dual-GPU videocards on a Lynnfield setup.
The new Core i7 800-series CPUs and the Core i5 750 still support the same automatic overclocking functionality, or Turbo Boost, as the Core i7 900-series processors. However, this feature has been jacked up on the newer chips. Core i7 900-series CPUs will only increase their multipliers to a maximum of two additional steps according to system demands (effectively taking a 3.33GHz processor to 3.6GHz depending on how many cores are in use). The new Lynnfield processors are able to jump up five multiplier steps for the 800-series chips (taking a 2.93GHz processor to 3.6GHz) and four for the Core i7 750 (2.66GHz to a maximum 3.2GHz).
Both Core i7 800-series processors support hyperthreading the same as their Core i7 900-series brethren. The Core i5 750 does not-its four physical cores are all that will appear in your operating system's task manager. Even so, the CPU's noteworthy performance makes it an excellent value for its roughly $200 price. We only saw a performance difference of 5 percent between the Core i5 750 and the roughly $555 Core i7 870 (based on WorldBench 6 testing of the two CPUs on identical system builds). In fact, the Core i7 750's score of 127 falls right around the scores set by competing Value and Power PCs that use Core i7 920 processors.
Test Bed: Intel DP55KG Motherboard, 4GB DDR3 1333 RAM, ATI Radeon HD 4890 graphics, 2x Seagate ST3750630AS hard disks (Raid 0), Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit Service Pack 2
So where does that leave the Core i7 870? Given that its price is almost identical to that of the high-end 3.06GHz Core i7 950 CPU, a processor that natively runs faster than the 2.93GHz Core i7 870, it's difficult to see the compelling reason to pick up this chip. The Turbo Boost feature of the Core i7 870 does ultimately beat the speeds of the Core i7-950's, but for the enthusiast market, the increased memory support and bandwidth for multi-GPU setups might not be worth giving up. The Core i7 860 is more reasonably priced at $285, provided you can make sufficient use of its hyperthreading functionality.
It remains to be seen just how far the Core i7 800-series CPUs will overclock compared to the Core i7 900-series chips-the lower power draws of the 800-series processors could make quite a difference in this area. As for the Core i7 750, this chip looks to be a solid winner for those looking to dip their toes into the Nehalem platform without breaking the bank-given Intel's dramatic price points, that's always a strong possibility.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
On April 30, 2013, U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) began substituting a passport stamp and an electronic entry record for the paper I-94s that had been filled out by people entering the U.S. by air or sea ports (Note: Refugees, asylees and parolees will still receive paper I-94s, but will have to go to secondary inspection to obtain them).
While this is a good initiative in many ways, like any transition, it will be a little rocky.
People applying for driver's licenses or Social Security numbers in some locations are being asked to present I-94s rather than the passport stamp alone. The I-9 instructions arguably require a printed I-94 card as well. And it is always a good idea to have proof of status that is easily recognized.
Therefore, we advise that you:
CBP is supposed to provide travelers with this information upon entry. If they do not, or if you have problems with the electronic I-94 process, please let us know so we can report these transitional issues to them.

Children's Genetic Disease Research Partnership
Dedicated to Saving Children's Lives in CHASE COMMUNITY GIVING CHALLENGE
MIDDLETOWN, Ohio and DALE CITY, Va., Jan. 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy together with Trisomy 18 Foundation are among 100 charities that earned a $25,000 grant during Round 1 of the Chase Community Giving Challenge on Facebook. Now in Round 2, Chase Bank has given them the opportunity to compete for an additional $1 Million prize and five $100,000 prizes, to be decided by public vote from January 15-22, 2010. Working together, these charities are advocating a novel approach to ask the Facebook public to support all charities with their votes that focus on saving children's lives through funding of genetic disease research.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100119/DC39975LOGO )
Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy's Founding President and CEO Pat Furlong is thrilled to be part of this partnership. "As rare diseases, one of our biggest struggles as organizations is to raise awareness about our diseases. In the 16 years that PPMD has been fighting to end Duchenne muscular dystrophy, we, like the other members of this Partnership, have tried to reach as wide an audience as possible. This incredible contest provides us the largest awareness platform we have known and give us an opportunity to tell our families' stories. By uniting as a Partnership, we are showing the Facebook community the importance of collaboration in advancing genetic research. Research that will save the lives of our children and our children's children. A victory for any of us is a victory for all of us."
"In the wake of the tragic earthquake in Haiti, we are all awakened to the fragility of life," commented Victoria Miller, Executive Director of the Trisomy 18 Foundation. "The parents who are powering the activism in our Chase Campaign Partnership know this lesson and live it every day in battling for the lives of their children struggling against rare diseases. Every day we work hard through these organizations for more funding for more research. What unites us as Partners in this Chase Community Giving campaign is that we have a common need for more collaborative genetic research that accelerates the translation of science into treatments that will save all our children's lives. And that takes awareness and activism and dollars and a bigger vision than one disease at a time. The advances in any one disease can literally transform the science for us all, and that's why we know our causes are united. "
The Partnership has a simple goal — to advocate for the funding of Children's Genetic Disease Research advanced through the Chase Community Giving contest. All Facebook users have an incredible opportunity to use their 5 votes for 5 Children's Genetic Disease Research Charities in Round 2 of the Contest now through Midnight ET Friday evening, Jan 22nd.
Those 5 charities are:
- Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy at http://www.parentprojectmd.org
- Trisomy 18 Foundation at http://www.trisomy18.org
- Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Network Cares at http://www.ehlersdanlosnetwork.org
- For Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Gwendolyn Strong Foundation at http://gwendolynstrongfoundation.org
- For Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Darius Goes West http://www.dariusgoeswest.org
The public can also view a video about each charities "Big Idea" on Facebook at: http://apps.facebook.com/chasecommunitygiving.
About Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the most common, lethal, genetic illness of childhood. It is a progressive muscle disease that robs young men of the ability to walk, the ability move their arms, and their independence. Duchenne is 100% fatal.
About PPMD
Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD) is a national not-for-profit organization founded in 1994 by parents of children with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. The organization's mission is to improve the treatment, quality of life and long-term outlook for all individuals affected by Duchenne muscular dystrophy through research, advocacy, education and compassion. PPMD is headquartered in Middletown, Ohio with offices in Fort Lee, New Jersey. For more information about PPMD and Duchenne, visit www.parentprojectmd.org and see their Big Idea video on YouTube: http://bit.ly/PPMDChaseVideo.
About Trisomy 18
Trisomy 18 (T18) is a common and devastating chromosomal condition resulting in high rates of stillbirth and early infant death in the first weeks and months of life. One out of every 3000 children is born with Trisomy 18. Double or triple that number are lost before birth in the late stages of pregnancy. Trisomy 18 can and does affect any family; the condition strikes families globally of all ethnicities, nationalities, and faiths.
About Trisomy 18 Foundation
The Trisomy 18 Foundation is the nation's leading health advocacy organization serving families impacted by a Trisomy 18 diagnosis for a much-wanted child, a genetic condition causing high rates of infant mortality in the first year of life. Headquartered in Washington, DC (Dale City, VA), the Foundation is dedicated to making Trisomy 18 a preventable and treatable condition for future generations and to improve health outcomes for children living with Trisomy 18.

http://www.aronowitzmd.com [Los Angeles cosmetic surgeon], Dr. Joel Aronowitz, has respected experience in plastic surgery procedures for post bariatric weight loss patients. Special consideration may be necessary for these patients' health and wellness. Dr. Aronowitz and staff have an established specialty of procedures for after weight loss.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 29, 2008 -- Bariatric surgery improves the health of morbidly obese people helping them lose the weight. Patients may be left with over 100 pounds lost but also with sagging skin. After gastric bypass and diet, patients finally have a healthy weight for one person but are left with enough redundant skin for two. Board certified http://www.aronowitzmd.com [Los Angeles cosmetic surgeon], Dr. Joel Aronowitz, announces plastic surgery options available to help patients achieve the body they want after bariatric surgery and weight loss.
Bariatric surgery has become a life-changing weight loss alternative for dangerously obese people. Sometimes it is the only option available to take off the weight. According to a story in the "Los Angeles Times" by Susan Brink, nearly 14,000 people in California alone have some type of weight loss procedure yearly.
The health benefits are undeniable. According to Brink, studies have shown that weight loss due to bariatric surgery can actually reverse diabetes, which is a common affliction of the obese. Other health issues that are greatly alleviated or prevented are joint pain and arthritis, heart disease and respiratory problems.
For a morbidly obese person, the health risks typically outweigh any risks from surgery. However, once the weight has come off, there is a new issue to address. Los Angeles cosmetic s

The fecundity of hockey has fascinated chroniclers for a century
Beijing 2008 marks the centenary of field hockey in the Olympics. Introduced in 1908 and ejected after 1920 as a discipline not having the administrative structure, hockey returned in 1928 at Amsterdam, consequent to the formation of the International Hockey Federation (FIH) in 1924. The fecundity since then has fascinated chroniclers.
Every Indian heart today is in anguish after the failure of the eight time gold medallists to make the grade for the first time in eight decades. But it is India that has sustained the vibrancy of hockey as an Olympic discipline from the day it won the gold at Amsterdam.
Enviable ethos
The Indians not only demonstrated to the global audience their inimitable adeptness, artistry, aesthetics and approach work, but also succeeded in establishing an enviable ethos, symbolised magnificently by the wizardry of Dhyan Chand in the pre-independent era, and the classicism of Balbir Singh (Sr) in the post war period.
Documenting India's dominance from 1928 to 1956, and then briefly in 1964, triggers a sense of déjÀ vu. What a shambles are we in today!
In highlighting India's golden age, the part of Pakistan in shoring up hockey's majesty and sophistication in 1960 cannot be underestimated. But the euphoria has now evaporated and Pakistan is struggling to retain its identity.
The European hegemony emerged in 1972 when Germany claimed the gold at Munich in a tempestuous final against Pakistan.
Slowly and inexorably, the balance shifted with the Netherlands and Germany surfacing as a powerhouse followed closely by Australia, the current champion.
It is against this backdrop that one should endeavour to evaluate the emerging power alignment at Beijing. Will the Aussies be on top of the podium again? Teamed with the former champion and the finalist at Athens, the Netherlands, in Pool B, Barry Dancer and his Aussie team will have to beat off a challenge.
Battle of the coaches
It will be a contest between the systems and strategies fashioned by the two renowned coaches, Roelant Oltmans (Dutch) and Dancer.
Both possess seasoned performers. The Australians bank on their golden boy, Jamie Dwyer, who scored the golden goal to realise the dream at Athens. The Dutch lean on Teun di Nooijer and Jeroen Delmee. The duo will enter the record books as figuring in their fourth Olympics in a row.
Nooijer has an impressive record of 380 caps, and skipper Delmee's tally is 393.
It is foolhardy to look beyond these two teams, although history props up the name of Pakistan. Pathetic recent performances notwithstanding, the enigmatic Pakistanis under Zeeshan Ashraf and striker Rehan Bhat can be a force on a given day.
Britain, which destroyed India's dream of a place at Santiago qualifier, South Africa and Canada complete the pool.
World Champion, Germany, and Spain constitute the force in Pool A, with New Zealand and Korea forming an unpredictable quotient. Yet to strike gold after 1992 in Barcelona, Germany had to go through the qualifier in Japan.
Chasing a golden dream
No team mirrors the excellence of the coach like Spain. The aura of Maurits Hendriks is all over the Spanish squad that always basks in the incandescence of strikers Pablo Amat, Eduard Tabau and Shanti Friexa. Spain is still chasing a golden dream after two silvers (1980 and 1996).
If consistency has been the virtue with the Kiwis, it is the lack of it that makes South Korea unreliable. The Aussie coach, Adam Commens, who coaches Belgium, is pragmatic enough to estimate an eighth spot for his team.
Kim Ryul, the South Korean coach has given China the inspiration but the expected podium finish may be a mirage.
Germany defends the title in the women's section which features the triple time champion, Australia, and the one-time winner, the Netherlands.
The dream of Argentina, silver medallists in the last two editions, may well become true in Beijing.
The groupings (figures :
Men: Pool A: Germany (World No. 1) Spain (4), Korea (5), New Zealand (10), Belgium (12), and China (17); Pool B: Australia (2), Netherlands (3), Pakistan (6), Great Britain (8), South Africa (13) and Canada (15).
Women: Pool A: The Netherlands (1), Australia (4), China (5), Spain (8), Korea (9), South Africa (12); Pool B: Argentina(2), Germany (3), Japan (6), New Zealand (7), Great Britain (10) and USA (11).
