Treatment for chronic mitral valve regurgitation (MR) includes monitoring
your heart function and symptoms, as well as treating symptoms as they develop.
If MR becomes severe, the mitral valve will need to be repaired or replaced.
Treatment for acute MR is immediate. Medicines and
urgent surgery are usually needed.
Treatment depends on whether
you have symptoms or complications, and how severe the regurgitation is.
Monitoring. If you don't have
symptoms and you only have mild-to-moderate regurgitation, your doctor may only
monitor your heart and valve function with an
The echocardiogram uses
painless ultrasound waves to check how well your heart is pumping blood (ejection fraction) and to measure the size of your
left ventricle. The smaller the ejection fraction, the harder your heart must
work to pump a sufficient volume of blood.

medicines to relieve symptoms or treat complications. For more information, see Medications.

Initial treatment for acute MR

If medicines don't help, an
intra-aortic balloon pump may be used for a short time to help circulate blood and ease the workload on your heart. Surgery is done immediately to replace or repair the valve.

Re: Bright work buffer
I have a Minkota 9227 buffer with 7 and 9 inch wheels. I bought it for work on compounding the hull primarily per a recommendation from Mainsail. It has an easi;y adjustable control for the rpm and erogonmically is easy on the hands.
We redid our cockpit table 3 years ago. Stripped it with Circa 1850 varnish stripper before sanding in an outside garage using water color paint brushes to get into the small areas like the cup holders. I wound up using a dremel for the areas I couldnt get the buffer into.
Home Depot sells this
Circa 1850 Furniture Stripper
I did go for the eppifanes gloss varnish and a clear poly coat on top. After 3 years still looks like the dat we did it. Shows you how much the UV destrpyed things as ours is under the bimini at the steering pedestal protected.

From Throwing in the Towel to Staying in the Fight
Book Review by
Adam Brown
The pastor in the local church leads a life of ups and downs. Sunday can be a time of invigoration and joy, and then on Monday morning, the depression comes. The outside world may have a hard time grasping the world of the pastor. The highs and lows, ups and downs can take a toll on the pastor and his family. Many of those who enter the ministry excited and motivated to win the world for Christ may be found leaving the ministry years later.

The Dead Sea: A Place of Healing
EIN GEDI, Israel — Southeast of Jerusalem, past fields of date palms, majestic Judean Desert mesas, a couple of security checkpoints and, if you're lucky, some goat-herding Bedouins sits one of the must-see destinations for any tourist in Israel. Glistening beneath a sun that shines about 330 days a year is the Dead Sea, the lowest place on Earth, which happens to also be one of the highest when it comes to restorative value.
The healing and therapeutic powers of its mineral-rich water — estimated to be as much as 10 times saltier than the ocean — combined with the dry and highly oxygenated air, heat, lack of pollution and low atmospheric pressure make this place tops in health tourism. People from across the globe take trips (sometimes on health-insurance dimes) to treat skin conditions, such as psoriasis, and other maladies including arthritis or bronchial ailments. Plenty of Israelis make regular visits as part of their wellness plans.
Given its salinity, there's a famous buoyancy to this sea. The most popular photos taken by tourists include the ones of people comfortably kicking back while reading a newspaper, floating effortlessly. Even the nonswimmer can enjoy this oddest of sensations.
Though it does the body good, there are dangers in these waters. You don't know sting until you've gotten the Dead Sea in your eyes or a cut. Watch out for the visitor who races from the water for a frantic freshwater shower rinse.
It's not just about the seawater, though. The thermal sulfur pools from mineral springs may stink and the vats of mud — meant to be slathered on and baked in the sun — might cause the squeamish to cringe, but step right in for a soak and play like a kid.
There are plenty of stopping points along the shoreline, from simple beaches to places like the Ein Gedi Spa, where visitors can treat themselves to services such as massages and facials, or lounge around a freshwater pool if the salt becomes too much. And while all of this is tripworthy on its own, there's plenty else going on in the region: first-class hikes and historical and religious treasures.
Bordered by Israel and the West Bank on one side and Jordan on the other, the Dead Sea, which is fed by the Jordan River, is about 40 miles long. But the shores are receding each year, at a rate of about three feet annually, as incoming water — in a part of the world where water is gold — is now largely being diverted elsewhere by Israel, Syria and Jordan.
Efforts have been taken to find ways to save the Dead Sea, among them a proposed "Two Seas Canal," which would pump water from the Red Sea's Gulf of Aqaba in Jordan — and at the southern tip of Israel — into the Dead Sea. This idea was born out of an exploratory agreement signed in May 2005 by Israel, Jordan and the Palestinian Authority.
But concerns — environmental, political and archaeological — are keeping this at bay. As is the case with so much in the Middle East, solutions don't come easy.

Getting there and around
–The most frequent direct bus service to the Dead Sea region is out of Jerusalem's central bus station, but there are also direct buses from Haifa, Tel Aviv, Be'er Sheva, Arad, Dimona and Eilat. For a bus schedule and fares, visit www.egged.co.il/Eng/. Buses stop at all the major sites along the shoreline, but keep your eyes open as drivers may speed by the one you want. To be safe, check in with the driver so he/she knows where you're going, or ask an Israeli to help you out.
–From Jerusalem, a visit to the Dead Sea is an easy day-trip (about 50 miles one way), but if you're interested in a predawn — necessary to beat the heat and catch the sunrise — climb up Masada before rejuvenating with a dip in the sea, you might consider staying in the area the night before. The options range from youth hostels to the luxurious resort hotels of Ein Bokek, rooms at the popular Kibbutz Ein Gedi or the desert floor near Masada's base where backpackers, legally or not, are known to gather. Visit www.deadsea.co.il for details about accommodations.
–If you head to the Ein Gedi Spa, entry is free for guests at Kibbutz Ein Gedi, about $16 for others (there are student discounts), and additional fees apply for cosmetic or massage treatments, which should be booked in advance by calling 011-972-8-659-4813. You can learn more at www.ngedi.com.
–Visitors also may consider any number of desert hikes in the region. One of the most popular is the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve, a canyon rich with trees, flowers, wildlife, streams and waterfalls. Entry fee is about $6 for adults, $3 for children.
–Want to bring some of the Dead Sea home? Visit the Ahava Factory & Outlet Store, about six miles north of Ein Gedi, for hair and skin products made with the sea's famous minerals.
For more info
To learn more about the Dead Sea area — events, places to see, hike, stay, eat and helpful contact information — visit www.deadsea.co.il.
Some tips for Dead Sea dips
–Drink lots of water and be prepared for the sun and heat.
–Though it's harder to get sunburned at 1,370 feet below sea level, it's not impossible: Wear sunscreen.
–If you have any cuts, know that the water will make them sting. The bigger the wound, the bigger the pain. For this reason, hold off on shaving till after your float.
–Wear water shoes, if you have them, as the salt deposits on the sea floor and shores can be jagged.
–Don't splash or attempt to full-on swim. This is not water you want in your mouth or eyes.
–Float on your back, read a paper if you like and simply relax.

So, in an informal rally on June 6, out on the street, Kissinger announced that he had paid his fine and surrendered his passport, but he was not going to turn in all the forms they wanted. Nor would he stop his association with Abu-Jamal.
Twenty-five supporters, including Goldin, followed him into the elevators and up to the fifth floor, waving Mumia placards and chanting, "Brick by brick, wall by wall, we're going to free Mumia Abu-Jamal!"
It may have been the first protest staged in the federal probation office. Workers behind the glass reception window looked alarmed, and one man popped into the waiting room long enough to announce: "Folks, you are currently trespassing here. If you do not leave, 911 will be called and you will be arrested."
The group responded with another chant: "Mumia is fearless. So are we. We won't stop until he's free."
Police began drifting in, and things looked tense for a few minutes. But Kissinger went in to his appointment and nothing happened. Back outside, he announced that the officials upstairs were greatly annoyed but had not demanded his forms. They told him to come back July 11, and that "if I bring people again, they will report me because I disobeyed the order of a probation officer. So I want you to know that you're all invited to come back."

Cheshire's largest area of woodland surrounds our Delamere Forest Club campsite. Located in the west of the county near Chester, Delamere Forest covers some 950 hectares providing outdoor lovers with boundless walking and cycling opportunities on its network of paths and trails direct from the campsite. There's a Go Ape! course too – with zip wires and Tarzan swings - for those with a head for heights. The mixed deciduous and evergreen trees of the forest surround the campsite. These green surroundings complement the campsite's many environmentally-friendly features. The excellent on site facilities include a parent and child shower room, laundry and washing area in addition to showers and toilets. The site shop stocks the essentials, further afield RM Wilding and The Hollies farm shops supply a wider range of produce. In nearby Delamere, Abbeywood Gardens incorporates a two kilometre wildlife walk, while Stonyford Cottage Gardens at Northwich has a woodland walk. Enjoy a boat trip along the River Weaver at the Anderton Boat Lift also near Northwich. The campsite is also handy for Oulton Park motor racing circuit near Tarporley. To venture further afield, you can catch a train at Delamere station a short walk from the campsite where regular services operate to Manchester and Chester. Worth Noting This site has poor TV reception. WiFi 100% coverage cannot be guaranteed due to rural location, weather conditions and changing flora. These can cause variable signal strength. Hotspots are available. Prices. Eat Local Nearby Farm Shops RM Wilding and The Hollies supply a range of local produce, while Eddisbury Fruit Farm claims to be the home of Cheshire apple juice and cider.

Toilets and Shower block are always clean.The only issue is the timer on the showers are so short before you have to repress the button again. The site is in a fantastic location, for walks with or without your dog through the forest ... close enough to the Go Ape center . The railway station is very close by, but the trains never disturbed the peace and tranquillity. If you like your Fish n Chips there is a van that comes to site either on Friday or Saturday nights.

We went for a short weekend break with the kids. The site staff were very pleasant. The reception doubles as the shop for basic essentials. It has one main toilet/shower block which due to the small size of the site is ample and was very clean at various times of the day, this may be due to the high standards of the staff and the occupants. There was one waste/rubbish point but luckily we were pretty close to it so no problems there. The site hook-up we had was rated at a proper 16A unlike some other sites I've visited in the past where you only got 10A and some times only 5A. There's plenty to see and do including Go Ape, Bike hire for the countless trails in the nearby forest, Visitors centre, Cafe, The Mere itself, it's even got the local train station on the doorstep. We walked up to the top of the local transmitter where you get a clear 360 degree view of many different counties, then walked down to the Delamere visitors centre and cafe. Finished off with a walk through the forest towards the mere and back to the camp site for a drink.....of tea that is! The great thing is, especially if you have kids on bikes like we did, you don't have to go out onto the main road to reach the Forest or other attractions. Well worth a visit :-) Towing: Easy Location: Secluded Suitable For: Families,Older couples,Active break,Peaceful break Friendliness: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Facilities: 4 Expand review Recommended: no 3.3 I had booked and paid on the phone half an hour before I arrived. john (Club Visitor) stayed Apr 2015 This review is for Delamere Forest I had booked and paid on the phone half an hour before I arrived. When I arrived it was 11:15, and I was told that I couldn't check in until 12. Despite the lady remembering that I had called so knew I had paid. Had to sit there in the car until 12, when they advised me to pitch in the empty field next to where I had sat and waited for 45 minutes. I don't know why I wasn't allowed to pitch a little early. It seemed they were just purposely making me wait for no reason, as if to prove some petty point. We were given the run through of the site and given the code for the shower block, and given a comprehensive borderline patronising explanation of the site rules, particularly how there is no noise allowed after 11pm. Presumably this was because we were younger than the average guests at 27, even though we were a couple. I felt that we were treated more like an inconvenience rather than valued customers and the only reason I could see for this would be that we were relatively young. The site itself was nice enough, shower block was clean.

You might say that actor and theater director André Gregory creates theater Boyhood-style: He and his compatriots, chief among them actor and playwright Wallace Shawn, have been known to rehearse certain plays for a decade and more, gradually building on them, revisiting them, allowing them to change shape and texture as the participants age. That's how Gregory approached Henrik Ibsen's 1892 chestnut The Master Builder. Over the years he and Shawn -- who had retranslated the play himself -- would perform the play for friends. Now, Jonathan Demme has directed a modestly scaled but potent film version of the adaptation.
Shawn plays Halvard Solness, an architect nearing the end of his life. Solness has reached the top of his game by crushing, misleading, or manipulating the people around him. In Ibsen's version, Solness is aging but perfectly healthy. Here he's on his deathbed, seemingly waiting to draw his last breath, until a vision appears before him, a radiant and loopy young woman (Lisa Joyce). She restores his enthusiasm and vigor. She also urges him to rethink some of the terrible choices he's made in life.
Even if you generally deem Ibsen el-snorro (important but boring), you may get more out of this adaptation than any other. Demme, following in the footsteps of the late Louis Malle, takes a spare, direct approach to the material -- his economy pays off in quiet eloquence. And Shawn, with his trademark two-tooth smile, is marvelous: One minute his Solness is a cheerful gnome, happily toting up his achievements like fat gold coins. The next he's a sour gremlin. He's mercurial to the max, a Solness who's treacherous but not soulless.

Very nice on the ice druid. The background has a sort of "Fortress of Solitude" feel. His face is good too - it's got a lot of mood and character, despite not being fully visible. I'm trying to think of a good crit to come up with, but am drawing a blank.
Take a look at my series of in-depth critiques, like this one of Salvador Dali's hidden portrait of Lincoln.

haha thankyou! I hope so!
I've just left my job to do art fulltime, so hopefully i'll be defying the speed of light......oooorrr being a lazy arse.....we'll see!
July 15th, 2007 #25
your portraits and painting skills are pretty sweet. you have a handle on figures and anatomy.. but occasionally they seem to come out a bit stiff.
try doing some crazy stylized flowing gestures. i think that will loosen up the look of them a bit. in fact, try doing a few each time before you start drawing, to loosen up your arm a bit.
nice work. (especially some of the chows.. the navigator, mr. hyde, and red riding hood are all awesome)
July 16th, 2007 #26
Thanks Stonecurly! You are right! I need to get speedier with my figures to get more fluidity
July 18th, 2007 #27
just a couple of re-painted updates from my old work. Quite fun to re-do elements and try out new things with these. Also to see if my improvements in my recent pieces can effect these ones! Hope they have! Crit is always welcome!

Iron toxicity occurs when the body has too much
iron. The most common cause of iron toxicity is accidental overdose of iron
Keep iron pills and all medicines out of the reach of
children. Iron pills often attract children because they look like
If your child is taking iron pills, follow your doctor's instructions on how much to take and for how long and whether your child needs any testing for iron levels. If you miss giving a pill on time, don't give your child a double dose of iron.
If you think you have anemia, don't try to treat yourself. Don't take iron pills on your own without seeing your doctor first. If you take iron pills without talking with your doctor first, the pills may cause you to have too much iron in your blood, or even iron toxicity.
If you are taking iron pills, follow your doctor's instructions on how much to take and for how long. If you miss taking a pill on time, don't take a double dose of iron.
Stomach problems, such as vomiting and diarrhea, usually
occur within 6 hours of the overdose.
An iron overdose can be very dangerous. Call 911 if you think that you or your child might need help right away.

Pull Out Not Guaranteed
The Associated Press is reporting the top U.S. general in Iraq is hedging his bets about whether U.S. combat troops will pull out of the volatile city of Mosul on schedule next month. Gen. Raymond Odierno says U.S. and Iraqi forces are in the midst of a neighborhood-by-neighborhood sweep of Mosul ahead of a June 30 deadline to hand over security for the city to Iraqi forces.

Can stretch out fast
What happened? This cap is clearly child-sized, not for adults.
The swim caps, although they say Adult, are very small. If you have long hair purchase a different cap. It continually pops up and will not stay on well.
Caps typically don't work for my long hair, however, it worked really well for me once it stretched out.
It's not orange, its red.
The usual, as advertised, haven't worn enough to say how it wears.
It's just too small, I had to double check it was an adult not child size. I've had the same caps previously, perhaps speedo makes them smaller now but it sucks because I had to wait for it to come in, then not fit properly. I swim every day, and it's awful when you're preoccupied with fidgeting and pulling your cap to go over your ears and from flipping up from behind!
This cap has an issue with fading and splitting quickly. I was definitely not pleased with it because it wasn't durable at all.

I shopped high and low for the best price for Michelin tires for my 2006 Essex motor home. It has 8 - tires, so it was worth the 1- hour drive from Naple to Charlotte RV and Marine in Port Charlotte.

Stats for 1981 USO final (McEnroe-Borg)
View Single Post
Hall Of Fame
Join Date: Oct 2008
Posts: 1,564
The 1981 US Open-final is one of the most disturbing, complex and disappointing tennis moments in history and absolutely puts a sour taste the glorious Borg-Mac-rivalry -- on the greatest, but briefest, of all rivalries in our sport.
I have it in three different versions. All harrowing. I watch it from time to time. To study. And still, some rallies between these giants are still shimmering with their special talents.
That Borg "gave in" after Mac's brilliant game-streak must be something of the most illogical statements ever made. I do understand how some people could forge that impression when seeing it and see some pattern to it.
But it's like saying the earth is flat -- just because it looks flat from where you stand.
Borg has the highest winning percentage by far in five-setters in history and is known as, arguably, the greatest fighter in tennis-history. For him to throw in the towel was extremely rare. It did happen about 5 times in ten years, never in any of the bigger tourneys though. That wasn't in the man's genes. He would fight to the death. Always. But now he was burnout though. Tired of so many things in the game. All the hassles. No vacation. No cushy, Lake Como-monthly retreat after Wimby like todays spoiled toddlers.
The man had run like a nuclear tank for ten years straight, being the most famous tennis-player on earth before or since -- before even the game could handle such phenomenons professionally.
Watching hockey was more entertaining than beating Mac for his 6th Wimby. He felt it -- and he knew it.
I will reveal some things here that "someone" told me, actually several people close to the kitchen -- not just from The Man:
* Borg was very aware of the SF death-threat. They said it was heavy security. Lennart gave Borg the "all clear"-updates signals in the change-overs to calm Björn all through the match with Jimbo. Many, many security people mingled all around. I am not at liberty to say how many -- but it was more than a 100 milling around all through.
* Borg was was in heavy "burnout" by this time -- BUT -- US Open was always, contrary to media-bs, one of his fave tourneys and it was his main goal both in 1980 and 1981. He was looking forward to it. So he felt more motivation than most other tourneys that year. Plus that he loved to rally with Jimmy. Their rallies usually were very flamboyant, creative and extracted and more often than not punctuated with sublime shot-making. That turned Björn on. Björn said he played about 80-85% of his best against Jimmy in the semis. Borg was confident coming into to the final. He even went and made a headline in a Swedish newspaper going "Look forward to the final -- it's going to be a great match! I promise..."
He saw Mac-Vitas and was very disappointed with Johnny's standard. He saw himself a clear class ahead of Mac -- if he played 85%. FYI Borg said he only played 95% his best in practice. I always play better when I practice he always said. Borg never did underestimate anybody and he knew mac loved to play him so he expected a dogfight.
* Bergelin signaled to Björn about the death-threat against Mac after the first set. Few security people was visible. This was disturbing. 20 000 people and no security but near the the court.
Reagan was gunned down about this time. Ten months earlier a certain guy named John Lennon was blown to smithereens by a crazed fan at the Dakota-building in New York and Björn had had severe run-ins with nutbags already. I have a great photo of Borg knocking out a nut-bag barging into his bedroom with an upper-cut. The examples are plentiful. Borg feared being the most famous man on earth. At Wimby after his Edmondson-match -- even though he was flanked by ten Bobbies -- he was mobbed and hundreds of people build pile on him. He was close to suffocating. Saved by the bell. After that it was either Court No. 1 or the centre at Wimby for Bear.
Borg snapped. Being already fragile in motivation combined with his two-year festering burnout "about the whole crap" Borg hardly even tried. After that. He called it the worst match of my career after a QF-stage, bar none. And that's saying something. In the 1978-final he could hardly hold his racquet with his bandaged thumb -- but even that was better than this.
Bergelin sigaled for more security. Borg wanted out. The anger and the humiliation -- in front of Mac, whom he regarded as a friend and to the paying public and to the giant stage created, I guess, an implosion of contradicting feelings.
Furious over the lack of security -- Borg ordered as many guards as possible to pave his way out as soon as the match was over. He was extremely down at the whole scene. The whole experience that day was the last drop -- it practically ended his last motivation. Being No. 1 in the late 70s and early 80s wasn't just a walk in the park. It's hard to understand. Pile on all that crap too and no serious vacation for 10 years straight with unimaginable pressure, no safety nets and everything on live TV. Staring into your eyes. Day after day. Year after year.
Now it's tough but nothing like back in the crazy 70s and 80s.
Borg tried though. But he didn't give sh*t. It was half-hearted. Had he played like he did against Jimbo it would been a VERY DIFFERENT MATCH. Borg said he wasn't at all impressed with Mac either at Wimby or US Open in 1981. He said "He played better in my view in 79, 80 and 82 and 84". Ivan (Lendl) looked at me in disbelief. He said to me that he wished I played like that against him some time. But nothing could make me care anymore. It was one volley after another and I wish all of them happened on court instead of off..."
As McEnroe talked to the crowd out on the stadium Borg went into a 1 minute shower. Dressed in ultra-speed and with his motivation gone and only left with ever mounting frustrations he made fire-wood of about ten racquets in a storm of splinters -- in front of Mariana, his parents and Lennart -- in the locker room, "promised to quit the business and start to really live a life far from the insane routine" and then went to the limo harassed with about 40 paparazzis that managed to chase him down and went on the next plane out.
It was all over very quick...
People tried to cajole him. It will pass. Soon tennis will be fun again. He wanted to believe them...

Ship stuck at Spawn Point in a Space map
I was previewing my mission, and when I changed maps to one of the space maps, my ship was stuck at the spawn point. It would not run, move(forward or backwards), and full impulse engages but the ship doesn't move. There are no obstacles near the spawn point and I even moved to the spawn point to see if that would fix it, but it didn't. This wasn't the first time I tried this map either. I have tested this space map a bunch of times, than out of the blue, my ship won't move.
I am not sure if that bug would follow the mission over if it was published.

Originally written on BroncoTalk | Last updated 11/19/14
Before anyone else asks, no, Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller is not in a 2013 Super Bowl ad. One of the memorable aspects of Super Bowl Sunday are the hilarious ads. This year should be no exception, but Miller won't be involved. One of the ads that will run during SB XLVII is Coca-Cola's "Coke Chase" spot, which features a cowboy that somewhat resembles a certain 6′-3″, 237-pound star NFL linebacker. The team has confirmed that Miller was not involved in the commercial, however, so that settles that. The role would have been fitting. When his football career ends, Miller intends to become a chicken farmer. So, Miller won't be in any Coke ads next Sunday, but we will see quarterback Peyton Manning promoting pizza during pre-game commercials.

Romney for President.
Get used to the idea.
But, you say, Mitt Romney has made it clear that he is not interested in running again. He is a two-time loser, which makes him damaged property. And the far-right wing of the party was never happy with him as a candidate. And by the time he would first become president he would be 69 years old.
However, the super-conservatives in the party learned to live with Romney in 2012. If they think he has the best chance to beat a Democrat, they will work for him again.
And who are the competitors?
Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Ted Cruz, Bobby Jindal, Rand Paul, Rick Perry, Marco Rubio, and Paul Ryan.
Of these, only Bush and Christie have the solid mainstream images that could make them attractive to independents and Democratic crossover voters.
The others have strong conservative views that may inspire and mobilize the Republican base. However, those same views may be too far to the right to win over moderate and independent voters in the November election.
As for Bush and Christie, the pragmatic credentials and mainstream views that might make them competitive in a national election, turn off the Tea Party and other Republican conservative voters who dominate presidential primary elections in many states.
To win Republican primaries and the party nomination, Bush and Christie would have to walk the almost impossible tightrope of getting far enough to the right to win the nomination without getting so far to the right as to make it impossible to win in November.
This is the same tough challenge that Mitt Romney faced in 2012.
And he very nearly pulled it off.
Of course, he lost the election. Like every candidate, he made some bad mistakes. Some people like NBC's David Gregory say Romney proved himself a "flawed candidate." But losing an election does not necessarily make him flawed.
Generally, Romney was a solid candidate, one who developed a strong fundraising effort and a national team of loyal, hardworking supporters. He came very close to defeating a well-financed, well-organized campaign of an incumbent president.
Many hard right conservatives, who opposed him in the 2012 primaries, supported him in the general election. They came to admire him and like him.
Take for instance Ann Coulter, the hard-right commentator, who recently spoke of her hopes for Romney, "Well, don't tell him but I'm planning on giving Mitt Romney a little more time to rest — flying out, kidnapping him and depriving him of sleep, food and water until he agrees to run again."
Having demonstrated that he can lead a competitive presidential campaign and win the support of the hard right wing of this party, Romney brings to the Republicans assets that the other possible candidates can only envy.
After brutal scrutiny by media and opponents, all the possible downsides of his character and personal life have been publically examined. Amazingly, even those of us who disagree with his politics have to concede his personal and family life are admirable, marred only by a story of his dog riding on top of the family car and some negative side effects on others of his business operations.
What about the age factor? Romney, born in 1947, will be 69 when the new president takes office, about the same age as Ronald Reagan when he took office. Age might be a factor, but before Democrats make too much of it, they should remember that Hillary Clinton was also born in 1947.
Seventy is the new 50, which is how old Romney looks on a bad day.
I hope I am wrong. I hope Republicans pass him by. But if I were a Republican, I would be right there with Ann Coulter, helping with her persuasive tactics until he agrees to run again.

More about Ruth Moose and Doing It At the Dixie Dew:
Ruth Moose's debut novel, "Doing It at the Dixie Dew," won the Malice Domestic First Best Traditional Mystery Award from St. Martin's Press. But she is no ordinary first-time novelist. She is well known in North Carolina literary circles as an award-winning poet, storywriter, book reviewer, and retired UNC-Chapel Hill creative writing teacher.
Her mystery is set in a fictional North Carolina small town called Littleboro. The lead character, Beth Henry, has just opened a bed and breakfast called The Dixie Dew. Her first guest dies in her room, and there is more loss of life, all murders. Ultimately, Beth tracks down the culprits. But along the way we meet a cast of characters who could have come from the small towns in books by Jan Karon, Margaret Maron, or Ann B. Ross.

WAS humanity's first depiction of a volcanic eruption daubed on the wall of a house in Turkey 8500 years ago? Geological evidence now supports this controversial claim.
In 1963, archaeologist James Mellaart found a large mural on the wall of a house in Çatalhöyük, the largest known Stone Age town. He interpreted it as a map of the town with a twin-peaked volcano, Hasan Dağ, erupting in the background.
But not everyone agrees, partly because there was no evidence that Çatalhöyük's people saw Hasan Dağ erupt, says Axel Schmitt of the University of California in Los Angeles.
So Schmitt climbed Hasan Dağ and gathered samples of rock formed in an eruption. The rocks were about 9000 years old – roughly the same age as the mural. Schmitt presented his work on 30 October at the Geological Society of America meeting in Denver, Colorado.
Stephanie Meece, who studied the mural at the University of Cambridge, is not convinced. She says the background may look like a volcano to geologists, "but to the inhabitants it would have looked like a leopard skin". The people of Çatalhöyük were obsessed with animals, she says, and painted them often.

Problem with the new Events
I wanted to bring the following "Problem", i have with the new Events to your attention and ask you if you are having those "Problems" too.
First of all i really like those events and i find them a good addition to the game, however i am having a small problem with them.
This problem is that you can only play these event at a specific time of the day. As there are many events (which is good by the way, more to do) the time you have to wait to be able to play the Event wanted. A a player from germany (not a native english speaker so excuse some spelling and grammatical errors) and a person who has to work during normal office hours i have a limited timeframe when i can play STO.
So since release of season 5 i relay wanted to play the Defera Ground invasion, but due to bad luck it was never active when i had time to play STO. Most of the times it was during my working hours or after 11pm.
While some events like the multi phasic event and the academy events make sense to be on a special time as a whole region does participate, others like tour the universe would not need to be at special hours. It could for example be a Daily Mission (or a mission with a long cooldown) with a one hour timer (to complete the mission) that starts when you accept the mission.
What do you think could be done to "improve" this?

Study undertaken to identify threats, conservation strategies
NEW DELHI: With only a few hundred of them left in the wild, the wild Asian buffaloes have been pushed to the brink of extinction in this country. Listed under the endangered category according to the 1996 IUCN Red Data List, Delhi's Wildlife Trust of India (WTI) in collaboration with the Chhattisgarh Forest Department has now initiated a three-year plan for conservation and revival of its present small population in the State.
MoU signed
The study is being undertaken in Chhattisgarh following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Forest Department. Under this ambitious project, wildlife sanctuaries and national parks covering a geographical area of about 4,200 sq. km will be studied to identify threats and conservation strategies.
The project, the first of its kind being brought in to push up the dwindling "wild buffalo gene bank'', apart from recording their present population in the State, will also try to address some of the problems linked to their habitats. Genetic studies to determine the extent of hybridisation with domestic breed and in addition relationships of different populations and individuals will also be established.
Bulk in Assam
IUCN, the World Conservation Union, in 2004 estimated that the total world population was certainly less than 4,000 and may well be less than 200 or possibly no purebred wild Asian buffalo remains. It is estimated that the bulk of India's wild buffalo population (about 90 per cent) is in Assam.
Estimates by the Chhattisgarh Forest Department indicated that Udanti Wildlife Sanctuary holds a maximum of 60 buffaloes, Indravati National Park (49) and Pamed Wildlife Sanctuary (8), while in Sitanadi and Baihramgarh Wildlife Sanctuaries the buffalo is considered extinct.
Reproduction rate slow
The earlier home range of the species extended from eastern Nepal to India and Vietnam. During the 1960s much of their population was substantially reduced and eliminated from the greater part of its former range. Now in India, wild buffaloes are said to be found only in two States, Chhattisgarh in Central India and Assam in the North-East. According to Rahul Kaul, Director Wild Species, Wildlife Trust of India (WTI), "since it is a big bodied animal, their reproductive rates are slow. Thus annual recruitment in the population is small.''
Disturbances due to cattle rearing, depletion of grazing lands, scarcity of food and water and hybridisation with the domestic breed have threatened their existence in the wild. "Though plenty of rivers drain these sanctuaries, most dry up during summer, adding to the shortfall of water. Hence constructions of large water tanks have been a traditional way of conserving these animals. A major problem that this species in the wild faces is the traditional hunting practised among some tribes in Chhattisgarh, mostly during the Parad festivities,'' added Mr. Kaul.
Other factors
Extensive hunting, habitat loss, diseases and parasites transmitted by domestic livestock, inter-specific competition for food and water between wild buffalos and domestic stock, and interbreeding with domestic buffalos too have adversely affected their numbers in the wild.

5.0 out of 5 stars A set to treasure for warm accuracy applied to a 'period' piano sound,
I. Giles (Argyll, Scotland) - See all my reviews
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Bavouzet, Jean Efflam (Audio CD)
This pair of discs, very realistically recorded in 2003 on a 1901 Steinway, exhibit all the favourable characteristics of Bavouzet to be found copiously in his extensive coverage of Debussy's piano music which followed this set. The sound of the 1901 piano takes us closer to the sounds envisaged by Ravel than a modern piano.
Bavouzet brings a clear modern approach to these works but without any of the Gallic reserve or coolness to be found elsewhere in such favoured recordings such as that by Thibaudet. Nor does he bring the level of drama and excitement that Ashkenazy provides in his very Russian but satisfying alternative readings for example.
Bavouzet has a warmth of expression and touch that stops short of any form of personal intervention between himself and the written note. On the face of it there is a similarity between Bavouzet and Thibaudet in their quest for unbiased accuracy and faithfulness to the score. However there is a marked difference in the 'temperature' or warmth of their actual playing that makes the two players really very different in their musical effect. I choose these two pianists for comparison simply because they are both French, both modern and their discs appeared within a relatively short time of each other, in effect the same recorded generation.
Without going into a detailed analysis of these discs, piece by piece, I would suggest that Bavouzet provides the human face of Ravel rather like he has done with the music of Debussy. This is not idiosyncratic playing but an obvious attempt to give us what Ravel wrote but delivered with warm affection.
In conclusion I would suggest that this complete two disc survey of Ravel's solo piano music by Bavouzet deserves serious consideration from collectors interested in either an 'only' version or those interested in multiple comparative versions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Original Instrument,
Ben Basing (Roughly London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bavouzet, Jean Efflam (Audio CD)
Like many of Amazon reviewers I am not really competent to offer a professional review of "Classical" music- I can't tell B sharp from A flat- but this record is a stonker. There is an odd squeak, but read the notes, you maybe think Ravel is too modern to be played on original instruments? There is just enough music here to give two full discs, some of which is bound to be familiar. I hesitate to say whether this would make a definitive Ravel set, simply because I've not heard them all, nor even most of them, but Bavouzet sounds like a pianist with personality but not idiosycracy. Before CDs took over I had five LPs of Gaspard de la Nuit so querks in this piece at least would jar- they don't, this has no impression of sounding the way an unfamiliar recording can, it is quite natural and "right", excellent sound, a consistent "personality" without being eccentric- I hear Bavouzet has a Debussy disc out now, if Amazon stock it I will buy one immediately on the strength of his Ravel.

Santa's Candy Castle
15499 N. State Road 245
Santa Claus Indiana 47579United States
(812) 544-3900
Editor's Review
Midwest Living Recommends
Specialty chocolates, candy canes, fun souvenirs and the coveted frozen hot chocolate make this a delightful stop for kids and adults.
From the outside, Santa's Candy Castle looks like a one-story red mini castle. Closer up, you enter into a life-size Santa Claus with fake wrapped presents in the lobby. Once inside, you have two options. The first is a computer room for kids. The kid-friendly stations are a way for kids to have direct communication with Santa. For $6.99, kids take a computerized quiz to determine if they are on Santa's good or naughty list. (Surprisingly, they are all good). Afterward, they get a laminated certificate saying so. The second room is packed with candy and souvenirs. Picture every flavor of candy canes, including one stuffed with bubble gum! Here, you can also get some frozen hot chocolate. Prepare yourself. This decadent, rich-tasting treat topped with whip cream is comparable to a chocolate smoothie -- only 10 times better. The candy shop walls are lined with Christmas ornaments and trinkets, as well as a candy area for kids with goofy treats like white candy packaged as "snowman poop."

$_GET["$SomeVariable"] = $sample_string;.
How do I do this in Jquery?
Thanks in advance, Rasmus
