Comment: Randomly wandering robot = Science? (Score 2, Interesting) 170
by vadeskoc (#33823676) Attached to: Robot Controlled By Rat Brain
I looked at the videos, but mostly what I saw was a robot semi-randomly driving around. Did they do some kind of experiment to prove they had done something more than set loose a stochastic system with wheels? I tried to follow up on some of the references, but after the second not-so-reputable journal with some kind of barrier to entry, I gave up. If I had done experiments in this vein, I would be yelling as loudly as possible about what tests I did to ensure this actually proves something. You know, so people wouldn't think I was just a crack-pot looking for attention. Doesn't help either that this is the same douche-bag that stuck a chip in his arm and claimed he was a "cyborg". In addition to not feeding trolls, can we avoid feeding media whores in future too?

TNCC president B.S. Gnanadesikan rejected the criticism against the Congress on the Sri Lankan Tamils issue, and said that imposing economic sanctions on Sri Lanka would upset the ongoing rehabilitation process.
He said those who were seeking a referendum were fully aware that India alone could not make it happen. "When a referendum is sought on the internal matters of a country, it should be approved by members of the UN Security Council," he explained.
Mr. Gnanadesikan also appealed to political leaders and students not to aggravate the situation for the Tamils in Sri Lanka by their activities here.
Chidambaram's hope
Addressing a public meeting in Karaikudi on Saturday night, Union Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said: "My feeling, your feeling, our feeling and the feeling of the people of Tamil Nadu is that India should support and vote in favour of the resolution. Wait till March 22 [when the resolution is moved in the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC)] for the good news," he said indicating that India would vote in favour of the resolution.
Recalling India's support to a resolution moved by the US against Sri Lanka in the UNHRC for human rights violations, the Union Minister said Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid could not announce the stand just like that and Mr Khurshid had made it clear in Parliament that India would support the resolution, provided it called for an 'independent, credible and international enquiry' into the human rights violations.
The Congress was the only other party to take part in the recent Tamil Eelam Supporters' Organisation (TESO) meeting, he said. "The Congress will continue to raise its voice and fight for the Tamils in Sri Lanka and get them equal rights," he added.

The place where inversion got its name.
One of the most famous and iconic looping roller coasters in the world – and the very first roller coaster to ever feature a full vertical loop. Revolution has remained everybody's favorite classic ride for a reason.
Revolution would be earth-shattering even if it didn't have the legendary loop. Right out of the gate you'll crank up a 113-foot hill. As you crest the very top, savor that final sweet moment of stillness because it's the last breath of peace you'll get on this world-class titan.
Slope after slope will whisk you down through the wilderness in a race with the wind. Then a long steep straightaway leads you to the main event – a 90-foot tall pure vertical loop! There's plenty of time to build up speed and, hopefully, courage, as you make your approach. You'll take nearly 5 G's, which will feel ridiculously impressive when up is down and down is up.
Hitting top speeds of 55 miles per hour, you rocket through narrow curves, soar over peaks, and plow through a tunnel, banking left and right like a pro. By the time Revolution returns your world to right-side-up, you'll know why sometimes the first is most definitely the best.

I like to buy my products on the cheap, I admit, I love not having to pay a fortune which is why I come to DAZ because you tend to be the most reasonable option in town with free software and all… My only issue at the moment is you guys are getting pretty slack at giving us 'daily updates' on the Fast Grab.
I also think its about time you guys start clearing out some of the really obsolete material in your archives. I think the rule of thumb should be that its fairly safe to archive everything pre Victoria 4.
I still want to see you guys start talking about file sizes on the new releases and pixel resolution.
I would also like to see more themed characters and HD ethnic variations for VIC/MIK6.
So far, I have to admit, you're doing alright but could be improved.

The capture of the suspected mastermind behind the deadly attacks against the American diplomatic mission in Benghazi two years ago should put to rest the canard from critics that the Obama administration wasn't taking the investigation seriously.
To the contrary, before Libyan militia leader Ahmed Abu Khatallah was arrested Sunday, he was under surveillance by American forces for months, officials said. He is being held in a "secure location" before being transported to the U.S. and tried in civilian criminal court, according to the Pentagon. This is extremely good news in a story that has had nothing but bad news.
On Sept. 11, 2012, U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other U.S. citizens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, were killed when Islamist militants stormed the U.S. compound with rocket-propelled grenades, machine guns and other heavy weapons.
Republicans used the attack as ammunition in the 2012 presidential race, saying Obama and his administration were pursuing reckless foreign policy in Libya. The administration and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were accused of not taking threats seriously enough and, absurdly, of not using the word "terrorist" quickly.
Though the president quickly condemned the "attacks" in remarks the day after, he didn't exactly label it a "terrorist attack" but obliquely mentioned that "acts of terrorism" can't be tolerated.
Republicans focused on that statement, rather than this one the same day: "And make no mistake, we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people," Obama said.
We're not naive enough to think this will quell the conservative zeal for Benghazi postmortems ad infinitum, but at least there is a new controversy for critics: whether Khatallah should be tried in civilian court or a military tribunal.

My fellow musicians!
For starters, it is entirely possible that this post breaks the user agreement, as I'm telling people about a product we made. But, since we're not selling anything and thus ain't seeing a dime from this, I'll risk it -- really, we just want more people to play their guitars :)
In any case...
The Chord Genome Project is not the only thing we're doing. You see, we strongly believe that a finely tuned guitar is an object of divine beauty, so we went ahead and created GuitarTuna, a guitar tuner that anyone can use anywhere at any time. And yeah, it's also very much free to use – no ads, no popups, no strings attached.
How GuitarTuna works is that it uses your computer's or phone's microphone to listen to the notes you're playing. Pluck a string and our swanky software shows you whether to tighten or loosen the screw. Soon, a perfect tapestry of melodious harmony has been achieved. Nifty!
GuitarTuna is pretty much finished, but it could always use some more polish. So, if you want to give us feedback on what features and aspects still need tweaking, we'd appreciate it – as every artist knows, learning where you need to do better is essential.
So. Here's the link. Try GuitarTuna out.
If you like it, spread the love -- the more people pick up their guitars and tune them six ways 'til Sunday now that they don't need a dedicated tuner anymore, the better. We could all use a lil' more music :)
Thank you.

VIEWS: 149 PAGES: 41 CATEGORY: Autism POSTED ON: 10/13/2010 Public Domain
Possible Connection of Heavy Metal Toxicity and Autism Prof. James B. Adams, Ph.D. Chemical and Materials Engineering Arizona State University Charles E. Holloway - ASU Michael Margolis, D.D.S. Frank George, D.O. David Quig, Doctor's Data Funded by Arizona State University, Greater Phoenix Chapter of ASA, and Pima County Chapter of ASA www.eas.asu.edu/~autism Mercury Exposure: Major Sources • Seafood: larger fish have most mercury, due to eating smaller fish • Vaccines: many childhood vaccines used to contain 12.5- 25 ug of thimerosal, so that a fully-vaccinated child could receive up to 237.5 ug of thimerosal injected into them • Dental amalgams: usually emit 1-10 ug/day; amount of mercury in brain strongly correlated with number of dental fillings; could release much more when first placed or removed Mercury Toxicity According to the ATSDR Toxicity Profile on mercury: • "Mercury is considered to be a developmental toxicant. … The symptoms observed in offspring of exposed mothers are primarily neurological in origin and have ranged from delays in motor and verbal development to severe brain damage." • "The infant may be born apparently normal, but later show effects that may range from the infant being slower to reach developmental milestones, such as the age of first walking and talking, to more severe effects including brain damage with mental retardation, incoordination, and inability to move." • "Other severe effects observed in children whose mothers were exposed to very toxic levels of mercury during pregnancy include eventual blindness, involuntary muscle contractions and seizures, muscle weakness, and inability to speak." • "It is important to remember, however, that the severity of these effects depends upon the level of mercury exposure and the time of dose." Bernard et. al. "Autism: A Novel Type of Mercury Poisoning" Medical Hypothesis 56(4) 462-471 (2001) They discuss the many similarities between autism and mercury toxicity, including: Psychiatric Disturbances: social withdrawal; repetitive behaviors; anxiety; irritability; poor eye contact Speech/Language Deficits: loss of speech or delayed speech; speech comprehension deficits Sensory Abnormalities: oral, touch, light and sound sensitivities Motor Disorders: flapping motions; poor coordination; abnormal gait Cognitive Impairments: low intelligence; poor memory; difficulty with abstract ideas Unusual Behaviors: self-injurious; sleep difficulties; ADHD Physical Disturbances: gastrointestinal disorders Biochemistry: reduced glutathione; decreased detoxification ability of liver; disrupted purine metabolism; Immune System: increased likelihood of auto-immune response, allergies, and asthma CNS Structure: mercury accumulates in amygdala, hippocampus, basal ganglia, and cerebral cortex, which are damaged in autism; mercury also damages Purkinje and granule cells (seen in autism); disruption of neuronal organization Neurochemistry: decreased serotonin synthesis; elevated norepinephrine and epinephrine; demyelination Neurophysiology: abnormal EEGs; abnormal vestibular nystagmus response Gender bias: higher sensitivity/occurrence in males vs. females Present Study Participants • 53 children with ASD ages 3-15 years, chosen from Phoenix ASA mailing list • 48 typical children chosen from their friends/neighbors (unrelated), same age and sex Methodology • heavy metal exposure questionnaire • hair analysis • dental exam Results of Heavy Metal Questionnaire Caveat: mostly based on mother's memory Seafood: 58% of ASD mothers consumed more than 2 servings/month during pregnancy/breastfeeding, compared to 33% of controls; yields a 2.7x relative risk of ASD (p<0.02); presumably mercury in the seafood is the major problem Results of Heavy Metal Questionnaire (cont.) Ear Infections: during first three years of life: ASD: 11x controls: 4x median: ASD 10x controls: 2.5x p=0.00006 Symptom or cause? 1) could be an indication of weakened immune system 2) In a study of rats given high doses of oral antibiotics (Rowland, Archives of Environmental Health 1984: 39(6); 401-408), half-life for excretion of mercury increased from 10 days to >100 days; if also on milk diet, >300 days (possibly due to yeast/bacterial overgrowth, which can last for years in children with autism) Preliminary Results of Heavy Metal Questionnaire (cont.) • Chronic GI Severity: – 62% of ASD had moderate or severe GI problems, vs 2% of the controls. – p<0.0000000000001 consistent with a major gut dysbiosis • Sleep: – 60% of ASD had moderate or severe sleep problems, vs 2% of the controls – p<0.00000000001 • GI and Sleep partially correlated: correlation coefficient =0.31 (0=no correlation, 1=perfect correlation) Low Muscle Tone: 30% had moderate to severe loss of muscle tone, vs. 2% of the controls; p=0.000000002 Excessive Drooling/Salivation: 6% severe, 10% moderate, 18% mild vs 4% of the controls with mild problems; p=0.0003 Low Muscle Tone and Drooling/Salivation correlated: correlation coefficient=0.47 Preliminary Results of Heavy Metal Questionnaire (cont.) Negative immediate reaction to vaccines: None. Mild Moderate Severe ASD 48% 23% 11% 18% Controls 68% 26% 4% 2% p=0.001 - highly significant; Since mercury has a latency period of several months, this is probably due to other components of the vaccine. ASD Reports of Adverse Vaccine Reactions - Severe • MMR, DTaP, varicella (12 mo) respiratory arrest led to hospitalization for 5 days, and then autistic symptoms began • DTaP (18 mo) high fever the next day, which lasted for 10 days; hospitalized on day 6 for 3 days; very lethargic; major regression started 4 months later • MMR (15 mo) high fever, very listless/passive for 5 days with no eating or drinking, then began regression into autistic behavior • DTaP, IPV, MMR, HIB, Varicella (14 mo) began wheezing within a few days, developed asthma within 2 weeks • Petusssis (8 mo) severe diarrhea for 3 months, continued to some extent for 27 months • DTaP (2 mo): 105 fever for 1 week – MMR (12 mo): high fever; didn't eat for 3 months • DTaP (6 mo): screamed loudly for six hours, and then began long-term regression resulting in autism • MMR (13 mo) high fever, very sick for 1 week, then ear infection and little sleep; slow development before, and slower afterwards – possible regression • MMR - within 1 week started seizures (none prior) • HepB (21 mo) fever; cough; after several weeks developed ITP (severe blood disorder) and bruised head to toe for 9 months ASD Reports of Adverse Reactions to Vaccinations - Moderate • HepB: high fever for 2 days • DTaP: greatly swollen thigh for 1 day • DTP/MMT: very high fever, screaming, hives for 2 days • Most vaccinations caused high fever for 1-2 days Controls: Reports of Adverse Vaccine Reactions Moderate and Severe •Varicella (12 mo): lethargic for 2 weeks, rested in bed •MMR: 104 fever for 2 days; several seizures lasting 1-2 minutes for 2 days; then okay •MMR/DTP/Polio: 103 fever for 3 days; rash; lethargic Dental Amalgams • Number of dental amalgams in mothers: – ASD: 10.0 controls: 8.3 not statistically significant • Fillings placed during pregnancy: – ASD: 6 controls: 1 p=0.09 (trend) • Our recent study found that a new dental amalgam releases approximately 450 mcg/day (about 500x what an old amalgam emits), so new amalgams should be avoided in women who are planning to conceive, pregnant, or nursing • Future epidemiological studies should focus on placement of amalgams during pregnancy/nursing, not the total number of amalgams HAIR MERCURY OF AUTISTIC VS. CONTROL 20 Hair Hg level (ppm) 18 GROUPS Female Male 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 Non-autistic Autistic Mean=3.79 Mean=0.47 n=34 n=94 HAIR MERCURY BY SEVERITY OF AUTISM 1.4 Hair Hg level (ppm) Female 1.2 Male 1 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 0 Mild Moderate Severe Mean=0.71 Mean=0.46 Mean=0.21 n=27 n=43 n=24 DMSA results Bradstreet et al. used a 3-day, 9 dose, 10 mg/kg-dose DMSA treatment in roughly 200 children with autism and 19 controls. He found that children with ASD excreted 5x as much mercury as the controls. Together, all data suggests ASD children have higher exposure to mercury, and inhibited ability to excrete mercury Our study of a single dose of DMSA, 10 mg/kg, in 17 children with ASD vs. 15 controls, found no significant difference between the groups. This suggests that DMSA challenges should involve multiple doses. Limitation of DMSA, DMPS Recent study by Dr. Aposhian of chelation of rats found: • DMSA and DMPS both effective in totally removing mercury from kidney • DMSA, DMPS have ZERO effect on removing mercury from brain (cannot cross blood-brain barrier) • Vitamin C, glutathione, and alpha lipoic acid have NO EFFECT on mercury levels in kidney or brain • Vitamin C, glutathione, and alpha lipoic acid have NO EFFECT on mercury in brain when used with DMSA or DMPS • Currently, we do NOT know how to chelate mercury from the brain Sulfate • Waring has reported that children with autism: – Excrete 2x normal amount of sulfate in urine – Have 1/5 normal amount of sulfate in blood • Lack of sulfate would decrease ability to excrete heavy metals • Treatment Note: in one child with ASD, we measured very low levels of plasma sulfate (1/10 normal), and high urinary sulfate; epsom salt baths had no effect, but 1300 mg of MSM raised sulfate to 1/2 normal Conclusions Seafood consumption > 2 servings/month yields 2.7x risk Ear infections > 8x (first 3 years) yields 8x risk ; antibiotics greatly reduce mercury excretion Pica is common in ASD (major source of heavy metals) Vaccine reactions are more common in ASD Hair data suggests an impairment in mercury excretion, especially in infants DMSA results strongly suggest children with autism cannot excrete heavy metals; Overall, mercury and other metals appear to be a major risk factor for ASD Recommendations for Prevention • Larger, more controlled study is needed to confirm results • However, if the results are correct, then many cases of autism might be prevented by: – removal of thimerosal from vaccines – limiting maternal seafood consumption – reduced use of oral antibiotics – no mercury fillings placed during pregnancy Autism- Baby Tooth Study James B. Adams, Arizona State Un. Marvin Legator, Un. Texas- Galveston Jane Romdalvik Funded by Autism Research Institute Goal: Measure amount of mercury, lead, and zinc in baby teeth in children with autism vs. controls Rationale: crown of tooth forms during pregnancy, but continues to grow until age 4 years; thus, provides a measure of cumulative exposure during early childhood Criteria: Arizona Residents Born 1988-1999 full vaccination records Initial Results (10 autism, 8 controls) • Lead: almost identical between two groups – Autism: 0.36 +/- 0.13 mcg/g – Controls: 0.29 +/- 0.14 • Zinc: almost identical between two groups – Autism: 94 +/- 10 – Controls: 91 +/- 9 • Mercury: much higher in autism – Autism: 0.18 +/- 0.11 – Controls: 0.05 +/- 0.05 – p=0.01 very statistically significant, but more samples needed Conclusion Preliminary results consistent with: • Holmes baby hair study - limited excretion • Bradstreet DMSA study - more Hg in body • our heavy metal questionnaire study: more exposure to Hg (seafood, dental fillings, pica) and less excretion due to antibiotics These results justify detoxification studies (TTFD, DMSA, other?) Toxic Metals and Essential Minerals in the Hair of Children with Autism and their Mothers James B.

David Quig, Ph.D., Doctor's Data Funding from Arizona State University, Greater Phoenix Chapter of ASA, Pima County Chapter of ASA Participants Participants included: – ASD: 51 children, 29 mothers – controls: 40 children, 25 mothers Children aged 3-15 years (average= 7 yr), age and gender matched Recruited from Arizona, primarily greater Phoenix Methodology Hair washed for 2 weeks with Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo; no other hair care products during that time No dyes, bleaches, perms, etc. of hair in 2 months prior Used 1 inch of hair closest to nape of neck Sent to Doctor's Data (blinded) for testing with ICP- Mass Spectrometry; analyzed 39 elements Results - Toxic Metals • Aluminum: slightly lower in ASD (-16%, p=0.05), especially in 3-6 yr old group (-24%, p=0.04) • Arsenic: pica subgroup had 25% lower level • Uranium: non-pica group had lower uranium (-27%, p=0.05) • Barium: pica group had higher barium (99%, p=0.04) • Overall, only small differences in toxic metals, and not very statistically significant Mercury • Children with ASD had same level as controls (0.29 vs. 0.29) - suggests that Holmes' finding of inhibited excretion of mercury in infants does not occur in older children with ASD • Mothers: 57% more mercury in ASD mothers than control mothers (consistent with higher seafood consumption), but not statistically significant (p=0.22) • no abnormal levels of other heavy metals in ASD mothers Essential Minerals - Iodine • Iodine: 45% lower in ASD than controls, p=0.005 (highly significant!) • in 3-6 yr old group, similar value (-47%) • Caution: no data showing that iodine in hair correlates with level in body (blood is standard measurement) • iodine is an essential mineral • major role of iodine in body is in thyroid function • a deficiency of iodine causes goiter (enlarged thyroid) and mental retardation (Cretinism) • worldwide, the leading cause of mental retardation is iodine deficiency, affecting roughly 20 million children Iodine - continued • In early 1900's, iodine deficiency was up to 30% in some parts of the US • iodine in salt is believed to be sufficient to make iodine deficiency very rare in the US/western world • however, iodine levels in blood have declined 50% from 1970's to 1990's per NHANES I and III, possibly due to decreased salt intake • RECOMMENDATION: supplement at modest level; measure iodine in blood; test thyroid function Lithium The only abnormality in mothers of children with ASD was low levels of lithium: all ages: -40%, p=0.05 mothers of children ages 3-8: -56%, p=0.005 (highly significant!) Similarly, children with ASD had lower levels of lithium all ages: -15%, not significant ages 3-6 yr: -30%, p=0.04 Importance of Lithium • Hair is a reliable measure of lithium • Lithium is probably an essential mineral (not well studied) • Study of goats on lithium-deficient diet found: – decrease of the activity of many enzymes, including enzymes of the citrate cycle (ICDH, MCH), glycoloysis (ALD) and N metabolism – decreased activity of monoamino oxidase, which is of particular importance to manic-depression, chronic schizophrenia, and unipolar depression. – lowered immunological status, and suffered from more chronic infections • Lithium concentrations highest during first trimester, and highest in the brain, so a deficiency of it could affect early fetal development, including early brain development Lithium - continued • Low lithium in urine correlated with increase in schizophrenia diagnosis, neurosis, and homicide. • Another study found highly significant (p=0.005 to 0.01) inverse associations between water lithium levels and rates of homicide, suicide, and rape, and significant (p=0.01- 0.05) inverse associations with rates of arrest for burglary and theft, possession of narcotic drugs, and rates of juvenile runaways (ie, low lithium associated with behavior problems). • Finally, a four-week placebo-controlled study of 24 former drug users found that 400 mcg/day of lithium resulted in steady increases in mood scores, especially in subcategories reflecting happiness, friendliness, and energy. Lithium • Not included in most nutritional supplements, or in prenatal supplements • An estimated RDA is 1000 mcg/day, and people in the US consume only about 500 mcg/day • Extremely high doses of lithium (1,000,000 mcg/day) are used as a psychiatric medication, primarily for "calming/mood stabilization", especially for bipolar disorder; nearly toxic at that dose • RECOMMENDATION: a dosage of 200-1000 mcg/day should be safe, and may be beneficial to younger children with autism and their mothers • More research needed Phosphorus Slightly low levels in children with ASD (- 11%, p=0.001). Minor difference, but highly statistically significant. Pica Sub-Group Pica subgroup had: • low levels of chromium (-38%, p=0.002) – highly significant • low levels of sodium (-58%, p=0.05) • elevated levels of copper (+67%, p=0.03) and strontium (+112%, p=0.03) • Could chromium supplements help decrease pica? Low Muscle Tone Children with low muscle tone had: • very low potassium (-66%, p=0.01) – potassium is needed for muscle contractions • high zinc (+30%, p=0.01) • high barium (+109%, p=0.03) Could an increase in potassium intake help with low muscle tone? CAUTION: • Best source of potassium is fruits and vegetables, especially potatoes and avocado. • Prescription needed for significant potassium supplement, due to concerns re. heart function Conclusions • Low iodine in children could cause mental retardation • Low lithium in mothers and young children could cause behavior problems, and could cause increased ear infections in children • Pica associated with low chromium • Low muscle tone likely due to low potassium Preliminary Recommendation • Measure iodine in blood or urine; supplement if low • Give lithium supplement of 200-1000 mcg/day to children and mothers (safe) • For pica, test chromium levels in blood, consider nutritional supplement • For low muscle tone, increase consumption of potassium (fruits, vegetables, esp. potatoes); might need prescription for potassium if diet change ineffective Recruiting for Autism-Baby Hair Study Goal: Measure level of mercury and other toxic and essential minerals in baby hair of autism vs. controls Criteria: born 1988-1999; autism (not PDD/NOS or Asperger's); vaccination records with manufacturers lot number (just call your pediatrician). Controls needed - please help! Contact Jane Romdalvik: firstname.lastname@example.com 623 376-0758 (email preferred) Funded by Autism Research Institute and NIEHS

could anyone tell me what the "long tail" method is please? This is stipulated in the instructions for the knitted cowl. Many thanks Pam-)

Hi Pam, The "long tail" method is a certain way of casting on. It creates an even, stretchy edge that works well for stockinette stitch or for ribbing. -Editors of AllFreeKnitting

How would you make this on Straight needles? Anyone? Thanks! Just unsure of how many stitches I'd cast on ... the 131 would be the length on the straight needle, but what for the width? Thanks

The only thing that would change using straight needles is that to make it a cowl, you are going to have to sew the two ends together. You will still cast on 131 stitches and you will still seed dtitch for 15"-the only thing circulars eliminate is the seem. Hope this helps.

How often do you hear this said: "Boy, my memory certainly is not what it used to be." Well, to that I say "Hogwash." Fact is, I believe our memories have never been better. Now, I understand if you scoff at that statement.
However, if you will indulge me and consider just why I believe my statement. Consider this: one hundred years ago, life was fairly straightforward and simple. Hard work was the norm if one was expected to succeed.
In 1915, the United States population reached 100 million people. This number pales in comparison to today's 313 million people. One hundred years ago the average workday was 10 to 12 hours per day for six days per week. Only 23 percent of the workforce was women, compared to today's 57 percent. Only 13 percent of the population had a high school diploma compared to today's 78 percent graduation rate.
One hundred years ago, travel was limited simply because automobiles were only used by those who could afford them. Few people even knew how to drive. Flying was still considered new, so people pretty much stayed down on the farm and worked.
Now, fast forward to 2014, and consider the lifestyle. Today if a person thinks it, it can be shared instantly anywhere in the world. We think nothing of boarding a plane and flying anywhere in the world in just a few hours.
It all boils down to a simple fact for most of us: our lives are anything but simple. We are busier than we have ever been. That alone keeps our memory alive and learning each and every day. I believe our memory is expandable, capable of retaining more data than any of us can fully appreciate.
Of course you are going to have moments where you forget things. For example, walking into a room and not remembering what you are searching for, or failing to recall someone's name, or an occasional moment you cannot remember where you parked.
Remember, that in today's society, there is so much more to remember than in the past, so don't get discouraged if you have moments where your memory fails you. It happens to everyone. You just have so much information stored, and sometimes it takes time to locate that particular file.
Today's computers are not so much different than the brain matter you use to store the whos, whats, and wheres of today's world. So, my advice to you is simply this: stay as active as possible and take extra good care of yourself and your faculties. Your memory, barring certain illnesses, will remain intact, and I encourage you to utilize and enlarge your memory. In case you question how to accomplish this, there are many ways to improve your memory. Get started today.
Here at your Chamber, we strive to improve daily, not only for our members, but for our entire community. It is our intent to see improvement in education, housing, economic development, workforce development, and other areas of importance for the growth of our county.
However, we cannot accomplish our goals without your support. Your membership investment will ensure positive future growth for your community. Stop in to 1209 Caldwell St. or call 276-4274 and allow either Liz, Michelle or me to tell you why we need your support and how you can become involved in your Newberry County Chamber of Commerce.

I've been making these for about a year, and every time I do everyone just LOVES them!! Even my picky eater.
Was this helpful?
I made these for Thanksgiving. They were a gigantic hit! My best friend's uncle said that they were one of the most delicious things that he's ever eaten (he ate four!). By the time my two Thanksgivings were over, all that were left were little crumbly bits! Fantastical!

I had to take me little dog to the groomer to get her groomed. My groomer asked me about all these horses that I keep going thru and why I didn't keep them long. I told her that every time that I think that I found one that is the right one something goes wrong where they would just turn and get were you can't ride them or just try to hurt you or hurt someone. She started telling me about a walking mare that she had out in the field that anyone can ride and she's the type that you could take out after years of not being rode and she would be the same. I told her that I didn't know about that and I said that I was taking my time on looking for one. She told me that she was going on a big trail ride and she asked me to go with her and ride Dezi. I told her that I would love to go riding horses. Well I rode Dezi on the trail ride and she was awesome!! After the ride was over my groomer asked me when did I want her to deliver her and I told her that I couldn't buy a horse right now and that I was taking my time. She told me that I was getting her for nothing cause she wanted her to go to a good home. I was so shocked cause she is such a sweet horse. So now Dezi and I are like to pee's in a pot.. :).

HOUSTON -- Former Major League Baseball player and Bellaire standout Chuck Knoblauch was in a Houston courtroom Tuesday morning on a family violence charge.
He posted a $10,000 bond late Tuesday afternoon and said very little as he walked out of jail.
"I'm sorry for what happened," Chuck Knoblauch said. "I'm sorry for my actions."
Knoblauch is accused of striking and choking his common-law wife last week at their home.
Stacey Stelmach told police they had an argument and she tried to take his car keys away because she thought he was drunk, according to prosecutor Kari Allen.
"In her words, he was intoxicated. They had a struggle over the keys, during which he apparently punched and choked her," said Memorial Villages Police Lt. Bill Sala.
Investigators say Knoblauch fled the scene in his car, and that a family friend called 911.?
Knoblauch turned himself into authorities Tuesday morning. He was charged with felony domestic violence.
His attorney said it was a domestic dispute, and he didn't think it warranted criminal charges.
"It's a disagreement between he and his wife. They're going through a divorce," said Dan Cogdell, Knoblauch's attorney. "It's a rough time for both of them and we hope to get this behind us as quickly as we can."
During Tuesday's court appearance, the judge granted a motion for protective order, which means Knoblauch can't have any contact with Stelmach.
Knoblauch's neighbor Jacqueline Smooke calls the charges unbelievable.
"He's a very nice guy.? We've become kind of friendly with him and we're so shocked that something like this would happen," Smooke said.
Knoblauch is a Houston native who was a star player at Bellaire High School, where he played for his dad, Ray.
Knoblauch played college baseball at Texas A&M University before joining the Minnesota Twins.
He was named American League Rookie of the Year and won a World Series ring in 1991. He won the Gold Glove Award in 1997 and was a four-time All-Star.
Knoblauch was traded to the Yankees in 1997, and his storied career quickly went south. He made a series of throwing errors, including one ball that went into the stands and hit sportscaster Keith Olbermann's mother in the face. Joe Torre moved him from second base to the outfield.
Knoblauch later joined the Royals as a free agent, but played in just 80 games before retiring in 2003.
Knoblauch is listed in the Mitchell Report as one of the ballplayers who used performance-enhancing drugs provided by Brian McNamee. He testified before the House Committee investigating steroids in February of 2008.

Where to eat near Mann Center for Performing Arts
Hey there - taking a 2.5 hour trip down to see a concert this weekend, and am wondering where to eat...any suggestions for food either close by or at site? We're Philly newbies....
From a website ....
Wolfgang Puck Catering has replaced Stephen Starr Catering this year. Crescendo restaurant, which is a 180-seat buffet tent offering will become a first come, first serve lounge on rock show nights so you don't need reservations. But for all other concerts, reservations start at 6 p.m. Call (215) 546-7900 ext. 123.
In addition, there are three bars throughout the grounds; one at Crescendo, one at PECO Plaza and another down by the press gate. Other concessions include Independence Grill, which serves burgers and other American fare, all catered by Wolfgang Puck as well.
The Mann is the in the middle of Fairmount park (Philadelphia's answer to Central Park) and there are no food venues very close. So either eat before or eat at the limited concessions listed above. SOme folks can give you some suggestions for places in the Art Museum area or in West Philadelphia closer to the venue.
re: cwdonald
I got an email from the Mann Center today advertising a $39 buffet at Crescendo that I could make reservations for and prepay. Here's the menu: http://manncenter.org/sites/default/f...
I'm guessing you're coming to town for the same concert Friday night that I am. I'm coming from four hours away, and I usually just get something on the road when I go to the Mann Center. Hopefully you get some good suggestions before I hit the road Friday afternoon!
I suspect http://www.lecochonnoir.com/ is closest. I haven't been there but there are some threads about it.

EDGARD, La. A 20-year-old man operating a four-wheeler stolen out of St. Charles Parish died in a single vehicle crash after striking a tree Tuesday evening, state police said.
Ronnie Brown of Luling exited a trailer park at Amp Circle in St. John Parish onto a grassy area south of the park when the four-wheeler struck a support pole to a utility pole. The 2013 Can-Am ATV turned clockwise and slammed into a tree, throwing Brown off who was not wearing a helmet, police said.
Brown died from his injuries after his transport to St. John Hospital, state police spokesman Evan Harrell said.
Police learned that Brown was using a stolen four-wheeler in their investigation, but the St. John Parish Sheriff's Office is investigating the stolen vehicle case.
Police are waiting for routine toxicology tests, but have said that alcohol use is not suspected.

text: The Morris twins: gone pro. The hole in the Kansas Jayhawks' front court would belong to Thomas Robinson ... if he didn't join Markieff and Marcus in the NBA. Robinson's potential to be a great college player was clear in his sophomore season (7.6 points and 6.4 rebounds in just under 15 minutes a game), and he was projected as a lottery talent. Now, in a year when he lost his mother and two grandparents in the same awful month, with a little sister to care for alone, T-Rob had a decision to make: Stay and own this team or leave and get paid. Robinson stayed for his junior year, and he dominated. The 6-foot-10-inch forward averaged a double-double (17.7 points and 11.9 rebounds), led KU to a regular-season Big 12 crown and racked up a bunch of honors (Big 12 Conference Player of the Year, first-team All-Big 12 Conference and a consensus first-team All-American). Oh, and he damn near grabbed a National Championship, falling 67-59 to Kentucky. As T-Rob's tat says, though, "Success is nothing without failure." So with that, he goes forward with everyone's blessing, snatched up by the Sacramento Kings with the fifth overall pick in the NBA Draft.

5. 2012 Chevrolet Sonic
There was no way
General Motors
(GM - Get Report) was going to let Ford play with all the cool subcompact toys by itself. The relatively new Sonic's comfortable ride, smooth steering, 31 cubic feet of cargo space and combined mileage of nearly 30 miles per gallon are the Sonic's key perks, but drivers get a lot of toys for the money. The base LS model includes a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a 60/40-split rear seat, a trip computer, OnStar emergency system and a four-speaker AM/FM stereo with an auxiliary audio jack. The LT upgrade throws in six-speaker audio, heated mirrors, remote starter, full power accessories and a Connectivity Plus package of cruise control, Bluetooth phone and audio streaming, an iPod/USB audio interface and steering-wheel-mounted audio controls.

looking for a boat (or two) for trans-pacific passage from seattle (PNW)
hi all,
i'm a novice sailor, still developing my wind sense. i have been sailing at least once a week at the center for wooden boats in seattle in the past month and a half. i can solo a junior knockabout, cat boat, and spritsail. i hoisted a spinnaker once. i know how to rig bermuda, simple gaff and simple sprit sails. my longest trip so far was from la conner (wa) to seattle on a columbia 26, which took 14 hours and in which i learned some chart reading.
i'm a carpenter by trade. i enjoy making and fixing things. i'm a very tool-capable person. i repaired one sail, so far. i also have worked in the restaurant business as both a dishwasher and cook. i'm an outdoor person and a trained rock climber.
my main destination is indonesia. however, i'm willing and eager to take however many rides to achieve my goal. i just wanna get my feet wet, literally and figuratively. i'm available immediately.
sincerely yours,

Denver & Colorado Springs
Toll free 855.302.2583
Blue Star Recyclers opened its new facility in Denver. We hired seven people with autism who are busy recycling electronics.
To keep our team busy we desperately need a box truck to transport electronics from businesses and other events.
Please help us raise $20,000 to purchase a used box truck and keep
our team working.
Over 100 people helped celebrate the grand opening of the new Denver branch of Blue Star Recyclers. The Denver facility has already created jobs for 7 people on the autism spectrum and hopes to increase employees as soon as the volume of computers and other electronics we collect can keep these talented people busy.
By employing adults with autism, the new Denver location of Blue Star Recyclers offers businesses and residents a new choice for electronics recycling that also creates jobs. The news story interviewed employees with autism who are excited about jobs that help them "live life more." Read the full story.

Less than a year after a photojournalist and a call centre employee, in two separate incidents, were gangraped in the deserted Shakti Mills, a sessions court has found the five adult perpetrators guilty. The quantum of punishment will be decided by the court today. The trial of the two minors, involved in the gangrapes, is still on, and it can be safely assumed that they too will be pronounced guilty.
Understandably, in the wake of the crimes, the myth of Mumbai being a safe and women-friendly city was busted. The devil-may-care attitude of the perpetrators, the brutal nature of the crimes, and the venue — the compound is in the heart of the city which is bustling at all hours — mirrored Mumbai's transformation. It has turned into a heartless metropolis which cares little about its women. Make no mistake: Women here are as vulnerable to all sorts of crimes as their counterparts in other parts of India.
True, the Mumbai police showed alacrity and resoluteness in the two cases, nabbing the criminals in record time. However, such exceptional promptness is usually reserved for high profile cases — that one of the women victims of sexual violence was from the media played no small part in inducing the police and the Chief Minister to act on a war-footing. Possibly, the state's ruling dispensation was apprehensive of having to deal with another nationwide outrage that had followed the rape of a young physiotherapist in Delhi on December 16, 2012.
The Delhi case was a watershed, forcing the otherwise callous and indifferent political class to come up with a slew of measures, including a progressive legal framework, to ensure the safety of women in public and private spaces. But rapes are a reality that cannot be dealt with by mere laws, or even their effective implementation, though implementation continues to remain a major cause of worry in India.
Today guards are posted at Shakti Mills; the compound is adequately illuminated and it will soon have a boundary wall with barbed wire fencing, ostensibly to keep criminal elements in the neighbourhood at bay.
But, the administration's responsibilities should not end at that. Over the years, a sharp rise in incidence of sexual violence, including rape and molestation, has given Mumbai the dubious distinction of the crime capital of Maharashtra. Mumbai police's records show that the city has witnessed a three-fold increase in rapes in the first three months of 2013 when compared to the same period the year before. In July, 2013, alone, 224 rape cases were registered — an alarming rise if one considers that in 2012 a total of 232 such crimes were reported. There has also been a spike in molestation cases, with 635 cases being registered in the first seven months of 2013; the total number of such cases in 2012 was 614. As per 2013 statistics, minors too have become increasingly vulnerable.
It's not that women are safe from rapists and molesters in the rest of the state. Maharashtra contributes to seven per cent of crimes against women in the country. Such a state of affairs points to an ominous trend. In spite of strict laws, offenders still aren't deterred. The system, too, is hostile, though recent laws have made it mandatory for a medical institution to accord respect and privacy to a victim.
The key to enduring change is a radical change in our mindset. We are still far, far away from achieving that.

Just one day after the release of my first HTML template I googled it and was surprised to see it on so many Warez websites… I wonder if you guys have some advices / technics to protect HTML temlate files on your demo server? Or maybe are you adding some htaccess to block well known warez URLs?
Thanks for your replies!
Minify code as much as possible you might want to disable right click? but chances are what ever you do to block it a web designer will be able to get around it
Deep in jquery on a preview site, or on many places that are hard to find, or just many places, place a javascript redirection to your item. If they don't notice it (and I suppose it's some robot that rips our templates) you get a free commercial It can be gotten around it but there are some chances that a user will give up and buy it instead.
You just must check if someone is viewing it from themeforest.

Second Chance Ranch
ELMIRA, NEW YORK (Elmira Star-Gazette) - The retired New York City school teacher, who also ran an animal rescue operation on Long Island for 13 years, brought that passion to her new home when she bought some property outside Wellsburg in the fall of 2006 and established A Voice for All Animals/Second Chance Ranch.
Since then, she has been able to make some contacts and get occasional help, but Reichel remains a one-woman band.
That's why she holds frequent fundraisers to allow her to properly care for all of the horses, cows, chickens, cats and other animals in her menagerie.
Reichel hopes her latest idea - a dance for people who have pets or just love animals - will take off in a big way.
The dance is planned for Aug. 29 at the Starlite Room on Lake Road in Elmira, and all proceeds will help with farm maintenance and animal care at the ranch.
"Actually, we were going to do this for Valentine's Day, but February weather was so unpredictable, we put this on the back-burner," Reichel said.
"I finally said, summer is going to be going by and we're not going to have this party. I love to dance. I love parties. I want this to be something people can come to and have a night out and have a good time.
"I'm concerned about getting ready for winter. Last winter was very difficult," she said.
"The purpose of this fundraiser is to prepare for winter maintenance and get the animals ready, get their vaccinations and veterinary care before winter starts."
Reichel came to the Southern Tier with modest goals. She didn't want to create the next Farm Sanctuary, which has a facility in Watkins Glen and one in California.
She just wanted to try to make a difference in the lives of animals that were abused or neglected.
Since starting A Voice for All Animals/Second Chance Ranch, Reichel has been able to get donations and volunteer help from various sources, but doesn't feel she has been able to fit into the animal care network as well as she did on Long Island.
Running a program that cares for castoff farm animals and pets is both physically demanding and financially draining, she said.
"I'm on my own. It's not easy doing this," Reichel said.
"People will respond and send donations, and then they forget. Am I happy up here? I have mixed feelings. I do feel like a round peg trying to fit into a square hole. It's very hard to fit in. You're never good enough.
"It costs quite a bit to run this," she said. "The animals are well-cared for. Sometimes, I have to pull in my own belt. Then you have to say, 'You can't save the world. You have to save what you have.' But it bothers me."
A big part of Reichel's mission is educating people about the proper care of animals, and she is a big proponent of vaccination and spay/neuter programs.
There is a lot of ignorance about animals, especially among people who live in big cities, she said, and a recent visit by a friend from New York City illustrated that point.
"I had a friend from Brooklyn. He looked at (dairy cow) Dolly, and his comment was 'So this is hamburger?' People from the city don't realize. They come up here and they are learning," Reichel said.
"Dolly was infertile. She was useless to the dairy farmer," she said. "When I play with her, I say 'She's not useless to me.'"
