Ellie Halbauer came home to the Family Circle Tennis Center and won its Dunlop Junior Championship on clay Sunday afternoon with a 3-6, 6-2, 10-8 victory over USTA third-ranked Kaitlyn McCarthy of Cary, N.C.
And, is there any doubt whether Halbauer will return to the site in late March to take advantage of the wild card her weekend success earned her for the WTA Tour's Family Circle Cup qualifying tournament?
Don't even ask the 16-year-old Boca Raton, Fla., resident that question. "I've been coming here since I was 8 years old (until she moved to Florida three years ago) to see the Family Circle Cup . I'll be back," insisted Halbauer, who now trains at the same USTA training center in Boca Raton as former Family Circle junior champion Shelby Rogers.
Halbauer, the No. 5 seed who had knocked off world's No. 2 junior Varvara Flink of Russia in the quarterfinals, won this championship with her sizzling backhand down the line, patience and brilliant movement.
Down 6-4 after McCarthy had won four straight points in the decisive 10-point tiebreaker, Halbauer committed only one error on a long lob the rest of the way while collecting one backhand winner for 8-7 against one forehand winner for McCarthy that tied the score at 8.
The other five points all ended in unforced errors by McCarthy, whose backhand hit the top of the tape and fell back to give Halbauer match point. McCarthy, a 5-8 blonde who was ranked No. 1 in U.S. girls 18 in 2013 and was seeded second here, then netted a forehand to end the match.
"I was hitting it really hard at first, and she (McCarthy) liked it a lot," Halbauer said about the first set. She changed her strategy to defense and allowed McCarthy to make more errors, but Halbauer still went for her backhand when she saw an opening down the line.

Redneck! Hell YEAh!
LOL Redneck Photographer!
Yeah I have seen those but I like my external flash better. Seems that everyone is entitled to their preferences with their devices such as cameras, tablets, etc as long as they are happy with.
Draconian, not all cameras have IR wireless system. Some cameras will need cables.. some people may not have lot of money to work around for wireless system.. I understand cables are old school but you can not do anything about those people who have the cameras without IR wireless unless you donate new cameras to them. Can you please?
Shozilla, the photos I posted on how to diffuse the built in flash is precisely that, for people who can't afford an external flash, unlike you !
Informative posts guys, thanks!

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
At 15 Omar went to Guantanamo. Here's his story
21 Jul 2011 11:18 GMT | Politics, Europe, Kenya, United Kingdom
Four elderly Kenyans have been given approval from a London high court to sue the British government over alleged atrocities committed during the Mau Mau uprising.The decision on Thursday to take proceedings to the next stage is a setback for the Foreign Office which had argued that the British government should not be held liable because legal responsibility has passed on to the present Kenyan government.It also opens the debate over the possibility of additional landmark lawsuits against Britain and other European nations for abuses during the colonial era, one of the Kenyans' attorneys said.Al Jazeera's Nadim Baba said the main aim of the case was "moral and not financial" and that much was yet to be decided about the next step in the legal process."There is some wariness from the claimants about the delays that could come before a trial. The Foreign Office is expected to raise issues of limitations, saying too much time has elapsed," said Baba from outside the High Court in London on Thursday."If the case is allowed to go to full trial, we're looking at sometime in early 2012," he added.Long-ago abusesDespite the potential delays, several Mau Mau supporters present in the court room in London told Reuters the judgment was a "great day for Kenya"."It's so far so good but we're hoping that things get better and the right decision will be made in favour of the survivors," said Sammy Kimetu, originally from Kenya.Richard McCombe, the high court judge, ruled on Thursday that the claimants "have arguable cases in law", and that the suit can go ahead.
But he added: "I have not found that there was systematic torture nor, if there was, the UK government is liable."
The British government had tried to have the case thrown out, saying it could not be held legally responsible for the long-ago abuses. It argues that legal responsibility was transferred to the Kenyan Republic when it became independent in 1963.Its counsel, Robert Jay, had argued that the case was "built on inference" and ended in a "cul-de-sac", the Press Association reported.But Al Jazeera's Baba said the ruling was a "cause for cautious optimism"."The [claimants] are confident they will get compensation and an apology from the British government," he said. The plaintiffs, Ndiku Mutwiwa Mutua, Paulo Muoka Nzili, Wambugu Wa Nyingi and Jane Muthoni Mara, who are in their 70s and 80 - flew more than 6,400 kilometres from their rural homes for the trial earlier this year. The abuses in question were allegedly committed in British detention camps between 1952 and 1961.The Kenyans say they were beaten and sexually assaulted by officers acting for the British administration who were trying to suppress the rebellion against the British officials and white farmers who had settled in some of Kenya's most fertile lands.They say British administrators were aware they were being mistreated, and want an apology and compensation. They were not in court for Thursday's judgment.'Open a can of worms'At the earlier hearing, the judge was told that Mutua and Nzili had been castrated while Nyingi was beaten unconscious in an incident in which 11 men were clubbed to death. Mara had been subjected to sexual abuse, the judge heard.Historians estimate as many as 150,000 suspected members of the Mau Mau, a resistance movement launched by Kenyan tribes, were detained without trial between 1952 and 1961 and placed in British-administered camps.The decision to take proceedings to the next stage is a setback for the Foreign Office which had argued that the British government should not be held liable as legal responsibility has devolved on to the present Kenyan government.Next Easter, another hearing will be held to assess the evidence before any decision is made on whether to proceed to a full trial.If the test-case claimants are eventually successful, more similar cases seeking substantial damages could be brought against the British government.Welcoming the decision, Martyn Day who represents the Kenyan survivors said the British government could "open a can of worms" if an eventual judgment is made against them."Undoubtedly the government is worried about the impact and implication of a judgment of this sort being made against them," he told Reuters."It would be much more sensible for the government to sit around the table and talk to us rather than potentially face massive trouble from colonial groups around the world."

Report + Photos: WFO Demo Night With The Arch!
Forno Bravo Wood-Fired Oven Demo Reveals Versatility
The ARCH hosted a Forno Bravo wood-fired oven demo late in July which was informative as well as energizing. The hands-on experience helped those attending get a much broader picture of what it is like to actually own an oven, and to cook in it.
We started the session at sundown and lit the fire in the oven so that everyone could see that, indeed, the Forno Bravo ovens do heat up to over 700 degrees in less than an hour. We had a mistaken piece of pine in the oven to start with, so we all noted that you do not burn pine as the black smoke will quickly make its presence known. After a few minutes, we had a clean fire and we continued burning clean assorted hardwoods- mostly oak, but some apple and cherry as well. As the fire was occasionally stoked, we proceeded to the kitchen to involve everyone with hands-on experience creating pies with the dough made from scratch the previous day. Handling the dough takes a little getting used to and is a lesson in itself, but we all created some pretty nice pies with assorted toppings.

Just a quick thanks again to people who use the flagging when they have issues with a post – either spam or questions. It's really helpful and I always go through them.
Well I can't see them, so someone has to go through them ;-)
The button should be renamed to "Report Post", makes it more obvious what it does ;)
I honestly didn't know what it was for, and I could imagine other people are quite ignorant of its function. Renaming it would be a good idea in my opinion. :-)
Flag is a pretty ubiquitous forum word, definitely don't need to rename it.
Flags draw attention to things. I salute you, Flag, and all the great work you've done in forums everywhere.
I would disagree there, I rarely see the term "Flag" on forums. It is usually "Report". However, I don't think it is that bad, I knew what it was. But I would say "Don't Make me Think" :)
I actually like the term flag because sometimes you might just want to bring the post to someones attention and not "report" it :) Reporting something has bad things attached to the meaning lol
I agree with Robski – to "Report" something definitely has a negative connotation to it. "Flag" sounds like it would mean "bring attention to" so it makes sense. To me at least, that is.
Flag sounds a bit different, as a new member join it is difficult for him to understand about flag..

Boksburg — Gauteng MEC for Education, Barbara Creecy, has appealed to parents, teachers and school principals to take action as soon as they notice signs of bullying.
"Issues of school bullying are very serious," said Creecy on Thursday, during a visit to Phineas Xulu Secondary School in Ekurhuleni, where a learner was shot dead by a fellow pupil following allegations of bullying by the deceased and his friends.
Creecy went on to urge parents not to ignore bullying, and take the necessary steps to address the matter with the school or the department.
In a media briefing after addressing staff members at the school, Creecy said her department would provide humanitarian support to the family of the deceased.
"We will ensure that the deceased is buried with dignity."
The MEC has also instructed the district to immediately start with disciplinary proceedings against the other three learners who are said to be involved in the bullying of the suspect. Measures would also be taken to ensure that weapons are not brought onto school premises.
Creecy said she has had discussions with the Gauteng MEC for Safety, and that she had promised to offer assistance.
"We are bringing in patrollers to the school to assist by searching the learners when entering the school," said Creecy.
The suspect in the shooting is the son of a policewoman, and it is alleged he stole her service pistol and used it to shoot his fellow pupil.
Creecy said police were conducting investigations with regard to the firearm. The mother of the grade 11 suspect said her firearm was always locked in a safe, and that she had no idea how it landed in her son's hands.
The teenager is in police custody and is expected to appear in court today.
Teaching at the school resumed today, although some learners were experiencing some difficulties with concentration.
The Gauteng Education Department has arranged counselling for teachers and the learners.
Despite the incident, the matric exams were not disrupted.
The mood at the school is sombre and some learners could be seen preparing themselves for their internal examinations.
Magdalene Nkosi, a grade 10 pupil, said the incident had left her feeling scared and that she found it hard to believe that it had really happened.
"I'm so traumatised," she said.
A memorial service will be held at the school tomorrow.

Sundance Day One: Fest jumps right in with 4 films
PARK CITY, Utah Film festivals can get off to a slow start. All that planning, all that travel booking for stars coming to pillage the gift suites, then everyone stands around waiting for a single movie, that big opening-night premiere, to get things rolling.
It's a lot to ask of one movie to set a tone for scores of films to follow over a week and a half. The Cannes Film Festival practically put itself on suicide watch in 2008 by opening with the bleak plague drama "Blindness." A year later, Cannes organizers lightened up and started with the warm-hearted animated tale "Up."
The Sundance Film Festival, which begins Thursday, used to face a similar dilemma. How do you pick that one film to stand as torchbearer for the 120 movies to come?
Three years ago, Sundance founder Robert Redford and festival director John Cooper scrapped the glitzy opening-night premiere and jumped right into the competition lineup, the films that make up the heart of the independent-cinema showcase. Day one at Sundance now presents four features - one each from its main competitions of U.S. and world dramatic films and documentaries - plus a program of short films.
"It should not be one-size-fits-all. We decided we did not want everything to be centered on just the opening-night film," Redford said. "We wanted to create as many spaces as possible to get the festival rolling. Let's avoid a red-carpet, avoid anything that suggests this is the main event."
Instead of one star-studded premiere, five separate screenings that give audiences a sampling of the diversity that Sundance is all about.
"We look collectively at those films to set the tone for what's going to be unfolding over the next 10 days," said festival programming director Trevor Groth. "It's a pretty varied selection, so you do get a sense of the kind of different elements that make up the festival."
Here's a look at Sundance's day-one feature films:
- "MAY IN THE SUMMER," U.S. dramatic competition: Filmmaker Cherien Dabis, whose immigrant drama "Amreeka" premiered at Sundance in 2009, returns with a new star: Herself. In her acting debut, writer-director Dabis plays an American woman reuniting with her family in Jordan to plan her wedding - and rethinking marriage as she copes with dysfunctional relatives.
Dabis said that after "Amreeka," people kept asking her if she wanted to act, and another director even cast her in a film. Unable to find just the right actress, Dabis put herself through the entire audition process and decided she was the woman to play the part.
Introducing "Amreeka" to Sundance audiences was one thing. Starting the festival is another.
Any opening-night jitters?
"Yes! I was so stunned when Cooper told me, and the first thing I thought was holy cow, day one. That's a big responsibility. It is definitely nerve-racking," Dabis said. "It'll be a slightly different experience as a day-one film. It's kind of nice, because it's challenging me a little bit to go there and be ready to open the festival in a way, at least open the dramatic competition."

Caleb Reed has become a pitcher the Mississippi State Bulldogs have come to depend on to shut down opponents in the late innings of baseball games.
That trust didn't just come overnight.
Reed has cut his earned run average down each year at MSU and has pointed to learning from past experiences as the reason.
Even though he doesn't have the typical closer body or a particular zip on his fastball, Reed said his ability to think is what makes him effective.
"My mind has gotten me further advanced than some (closers)," Reed said. "It's what I've gone through to get to this point. I've taken those bad opportunities and learned from them. I think learning from the past and not dwelling on it has been a big thing for me. That makes me where I am today."
Reed's ERA has gone from 9.17 in 17.2 innings pitched as a freshmen for the Bulldogs in 2009 to 6.99 in 67 innings worked as a sophomore and 1.55 in 64 innings thrown as a junior last season.
MSU coach John Cohen said Reed is smart and uses that to his advantage.
"He's such a great competitor and always trying to figure out a better way to do something," Cohen said. "What he did from his sophomore to junior year was incredible. He changed his body and reinvented himself.
Dropping down and having a lower arm action really helped him as well."
Reed had 12 saves last season, but one of the wins he failed to nail down for the Bulldogs came in the Gainesville Super Regional when Florida's Preston Tucker hit a home run off him and the Gators won an 8-6 decision.
It's just another lesson that Reed believes will help him this season.
"I could dwell on that pitch I made to Preston Tucker over and over again, but it was where I wanted it and he hit the pitch that I was going to throw," Reed said. "I learned from it and moved past it. We may be in the same situation down in Gainesville when we go down there this year so you move on, take what you get and learn from the past."
As a senior captain on this year's MSU team, Reed knows there are younger players looking up to him.
The message Reed has been trying to give them is don't give up even when things aren't going well early.
"You are going to get beat up eventually," Reed said. "Even the best get beat up. Nick Routt is one of the best pitchers we have but he's had outings where he's been beat up a little. He learned from it and didn't sit there and let that bother him the whole year. I think in my first outing at Dudy Noble, I gave up five runs against Northern Illinois. You've just got to move on and move past it."
Reed has come a long way and it has led to numerous preseason honors.
He was chosen preseason first-team All-Southeastern Conference by College Sports Madness, Louisville Slugger TPX Preseason All-American third-team by Collegiate Baseball, National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association All-American first-team, and 2012 Perfect Games College Baseball All-American team.
Along with all of that recognition, Reed has made the initial watch list for the eighth annual National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Stopper of the Year Award.
Reed appreciates all of the preseason honors, but believes it's more important to get those at the end of the season.
"What I want is postseason awards," Reed said. "If I can get postseason awards, that means our team is winning and that's the most important. It may mean our team is moving forward and maybe going to Omaha."
Cohen said Reed is so focused on what he has to do that the preseason awards haven't seemed to have distracted him any.
"He is such a grounded individual," Cohen said. "As busy as our kids are with school and baseball and how hard they are pushing each other, I don't think there's time for him to think about that kind of stuff because it's all about what's next."
The Bulldogs begin the 2012 season on Feb. 17 with the first of a three-game series against Washington State.
Despite winning the Atlanta Regional and reaching the championship game of the Gainesville Regional in 2011, MSU is nowhere to be found in the preseason rankings.
Reed knows how good the Bulldogs are and anticipates them to be a surprise squad once again.
"We still have that chip on our shoulder," Reed said. "As good as we did last year, nobody has us picked to go anywhere hardly. We finished strong last year and we're going to start off strong this year. We're going to go out and prove ourselves again."View more articles in:

Undivided - The Passion (Multikulti, 2010) ****½
The sequence of the album follows the chronology of the gospel : The Night, Getsemani, Judas Treason, Ridiculed King / The denial of St. Peter, Way of The Cross / Cruxifixion / Death, Despair, Resurrection. No surprise that the album sounds like a suite, with pieces moving seamlessly one into the other. It starts with the sound of a mechanical clock being charged, then percussion and piano join. The clarinet introduces the theme, full of introvert sorrow and sadness, evolving into post-boppish piano piece in the middle, becoming more abstract towards the end, erupting into full cries and shouts of all four instruments.
Zimpel did not want to make a religious record, but it is one about pain, and its musical expression. And his compositions do that with success, from the sad wailing to the agonizing outbursts, from serene almost classical sounds to bluesy and fierce avant-garde moments.
When I first heard the album, I thought this was an overambitious project, trying to do too many things at once, maybe trying too much to deliver something substantial, you know, like having the intention of delivering a masterpiece.
Now, my opinion has changed. This album is absolutely beautiful. It has more pretense than you would expect from free jazz, too controlled and constructed, but the end result is at moments phenomenal.

However, he hears an announcement from Plankton that he will rule Bikini Bottom. When the townspeople refuse to allow that, he orders two tanks to capture them. SpongeBob hides and is worried that Plankton will get a chance to shut down the Krusty Krab once he gets the Krabby Patty formula. Just then, Goddard came from a portal and Jimmy informs SpongeBob that Plankton has joined forces with villains from other worlds and with their help, he has taken over Bikini Bottom. He tells SpongeBob to join with him so that they can defeat the villains Upon going to Jimmy's lab, he is greeted by Danny Phantom and Timmy Turner, respectively. Jimmy lectures the three that his archenemy, Professor Calamitous has stolen his ideas for a portal machine and uses it to build one of his own. With it, he has allied with Crocker, Vlad Plasmius, and Plankton, and they formed a syndicate. They build numerous devices for them to suck up energy from their own worlds. After that, the heroes go to Amity Park. However, they were confronted by Vlad in his castle. He reveals that he has Danny's parents hostage and he will let them go if Danny joins with him, the offer that he refuses. Vlad stuns them with his energy blasts, saying that he will send them in the Ghost Zone prison. Inside, they were confronted by Walker. After escaping, they fixed the messed in the town from ghosts and proceed to go to Vlad's castle to disable the generators that powered up Vlad's portal. Then, they confront Vlad and they defeat him. However, he escapes from them. The four heroes go to Bikini Bottom where they meet Sandy and follow her to the Krusty Krab where she tells them about Plankton and the Jellyfish Factory. Fortunately, she sends a secret agent there. By the time they got to Jellyfish Fields, Patrick is revealed to be the secret agent and is captured by Plankton. They rescue him in the factory and confront Plankton in the rooftop of the Chum Bucket where he tries to get the Krabby Patty formula from Krabs. Plankton fights the four with a crab mech and is defeated. However, he escapes. The four heroes have discovered that the villains are extracting energy for a doomsday device. They go to Dimmsdale in Crocker's fortress where they re-activate the prisms in order to get to Fairy World. Afterwards, they meet Jorgen Von Strangle who explains to them that Crocker is extracting magic from the Big Wand. After freeing the fairies, the heroes confront Crocker in the Big Wand and they beat him. The heroes learn that each them they beat their respective enemies, they always escape. SpongeBob assumes that it is part of their plot. By the time they go back to Jimmy's lab, Calamitous makes an announcement of the doomsday device. Just then, Goddard begins to scratch, leading Jimmy to realize that Calamitous is spying on him through a flea bot inside Goddard. The four heroes go inside Goddard where they defeated the flea bot and use it to find where Calamitous and the other villains are. When they got to the warehouse, the villains are in a wheel-like device and a shield for each of them for protection. After defeating them, Calamitous remarks that the doomsday device is still on and it can't be stopped. However, SpongeBob plugs the device off and Calamitous says that he didn't finish the backup supply. Timmy, Danny, and SpongeBob go back to their worlds and Jimmy shouts at Cindy "Get out of my lab!"

By DON VAUGHAN
In A History of Western Music by Donald Jay Grout, I was reading about the War of the Buffoons, which transpired during the mid-eighteenth century. This intellectual feud, between progressive partisans of Italian opera and defenders of conservative French opera, was sparked when an Italian troupe performed in Paris. Grout pointed out that Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-78) argued that the French language was not suitable for singing. In spite of its foolish extremes, Rousseau's cadre represented the opinion of most Parisian intellectuals; as a result, the traditional French opera of Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) and Jean-Baptiste Lully (1632-87) lost standing. Â
Rousseau's comments reminded me that some individuals think that advanced words are unsuitable for conversations and writing. This is also a foolish extreme. Vocabulary building words are needed in conversations and writing. I encourage you to request Vaughan's 500, a Word file containing 500 words suitable for speaking, writing and thinking.     Â
1. buffoon (buh-FOON)
A. a ludicrous figure
B. a stoic individual
C. critic
D. someone itinerant
Was this intellectual feud called the War of the Buffoons because comic actors on the operatic stage were part of both sides, or was it because the Italian troupe was known as "buffoni"? I welcome your comments. Oh, A, of course, is the answer to No. 1. Â
2. "Guerre" (gare) is French for
A. opera.
B. war.
C. word.
D. group. Â Â
3. tome (TOHM)
A. a volume forming part of a larger work
B. a large or scholarly book
C. a collection of elegiac (el-uh-JIE-uhk) words Â
D. None of the above
4. renown (ri-NOUN)
A. widespread reputation, especially of a good kind
B. criticism
C. aggravation
D. an education
No. 2 is B. Music Academy Online points out that the Treatise on Harmony is a tome that brought Rameau renown as a leading music theorist. Both A and B are correct for tome. By the way, elegiac is also pronounced "ih-LEE-gee-ak", my preference. No. 4 is A.
Last week's mystery word is sedentary.
This week's mystery word to solve is one that can be used to describe Amleth's uncle. It begins with the same letter as the noun. Its first two letters are the abbreviations of a country, but not the country in which the story takes place.View more articles in:

The WSJ Columnist Who is Still Clueless About Palin's Russia Comments
Bret Stephens from the WSJ was on a radio show Thursday Night talking about Paul Ryan's foreign policy credentials. He said Ryan is better than Palin who said she can see Russia from her house.
What makes me SICK with this narrative four years later is that it was ABC Journalist Charlie Gibson, not Palin, who brought up the proximity of Russia as a reason to start and talk about FP issues! Here is the quote:
Gibson: "Let's start, because we are near Russia, let's start with Russia and Georgia."
Palin went ahead and gave very detailed information of current Events about those two countries, but ABC edited out. After the narrative went out that Palin is fool for saying she has FP experience because of Russia despite the fact that it was CG who made this argument, CBS asked Palin what Russia's proximity has with FP. To illustrate to us in the Lower 48 who have NO CLUE that AK is the HQ for our nuclear defenses against Russia due to proximity, Palin said Russia is indeed so close that in fact you can see it from an Alaskan Island, and we the US share a maritime path with Russia.
What's so "stupid" with this answer? Again, she didn't say her house. She didn't throw out Russia's promixty as an argument; she only reacted to a
You would think that some one writing for the Wall Street Journal knows more facts and history amount what did or didn't happen four years ago going onto radio program maing "smart" arguments as to why Ryan is or is not good on FP.

Miley Cyrus wants you to think she's a twerking party girl B who doesn't care what anyone thinks about her (even though none of us are shy about sharing our opinions), but is her bad girl attitude fake?
One of MC's backup dancers is outing the controversy queen as a total normal and sweet girl. Gasp! Has Hannah Montana 2.0 been lying to us this whole time?
"Miley's raunchy image is all for show," the snitch said. "Off stage she's a sweet girl who wears tracksuit bottoms and hoodies – there's no diva behavior…. She's breaking away from her Hannah Montana image and making sure everyone's talking about her – I admire her for that."
The dancer also went on to say that "despite what the critics say, I think she's a great role model." Right… and Justin Bieber isn't annoying. Okayyyy….
Do you think this backup dancer is telling lies to stay on Miley's good side or could there really be a side to Miz Cyrus that we don't know about?

These drugs kill Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria, which cause
Lyme disease.
Antibiotics are used to cure early
Lyme disease and to greatly reduce the risk of future complications.
Antibiotics may also be used in the later
stages of Lyme disease, when additional symptoms
involving the skin, joints, nervous system, or heart may develop.
The type of antibiotic prescribed depends on your age, symptoms, and
stage of Lyme disease. These medicines may be taken orally, as an injection, or
through a vein (intravenous, or IV). The length of antibiotic
treatment varies according to how bad the disease and your symptoms are, but
treatment generally lasts less than 4 weeks.
Antibiotics are most effective in
helping cure Lyme disease when they are taken early in the course of the
disease.1 Early treatment with antibiotics can help
prevent future problems with arthritis, the heart, or the nervous system. But
symptoms may not go away right away. Some symptoms may last for several weeks
after treatment. This does not mean that the antibiotics were not successful,
nor does it mean that you need additional antibiotic treatment.
Antibiotic treatment for early symptoms of
chronic Lyme arthritis is usually very effective.
Joints that have been badly damaged by Lyme arthritis may take a long time to
get better after the infection has been cured, or they may not respond to
treatment at all. A small percentage of people in the United States continue to have
symptoms of chronic Lyme arthritis after treatment with antibiotics.2
Heart symptoms often begin to go away before
antibiotics are given. If not, they usually respond to antibiotic therapy
within days. Mild heart symptoms that may occur with early Lyme disease usually
improve after treatment with oral amoxicillin or doxycycline for 21 to 30
Symptoms of
inflammation of the membrane surrounding the brain and
spinal cord (Lyme
meningitis) begin to improve by the second day of
therapy and usually disappear after 7 to 10 days.
Common side effects of these antibiotics
Some people treated for early Lyme disease have brief
episodes of headache, muscle and joint pain, and fatigue that may continue for
an extended period of time after treatment. These symptoms usually go away on
their own within 6 months and do not require further treatment.
During the first 24 hours of antibiotic therapy, you may have a higher
fever, redder rash, or greater pain. This is not an allergic reaction to the
drug. It may mean that the bacteria are rapidly dying.
One large
study suggests that people who take erythromycin along with certain common
medicines may raise their risk of sudden cardiac death.3 The study showed that the risk of sudden cardiac death is
greater when erythromycin is taken with some medicines that inhibit certain
liver enzymes—such as certain calcium channel blockers, certain antifungal
medicines, and some antidepressants—than when these medicines are not taken
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects.
(Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
The dosage of antibiotic given and
the duration of treatment should be based on your age and body weight, how bad
the illness is, and how you respond to treatment.
should be taken with plenty of fluids and not while you are lying down or right
before bedtime.
If you get
intravenous (IV) antibiotics, you may have weekly
blood tests to check your white blood cell count. The IV antibiotic treatment
may lead to low levels of white blood cells (called leukopenia) that can make
it hard for you to fight infection.
With the exception of pregnant
women and people with severe arthritis or heart problems, most people who have
been exposed to ticks but do not have symptoms are not given antibiotics. Even
in parts of the country where Lyme disease is known to occur often, the risk of
getting Lyme disease is too small to warrant treatment before symptoms
Doxycycline is the drug of choice for treating early Lyme
disease in people ages 8 and older. But it should not be given to pregnant
women or to people who are allergic to tetracycline.

Apple TV jailbreak was encountered by the firm, but the Wi-Fi problems with the third-generation TV has cripple the firm with constant exchange requests. Apple has admitted to the faults present in the TV and stated that the firm will replace the affected units for free of cost. Various consumers registered complaints about the latest iteration of Apple TV unable to locate a Wi-Fi network.
The firm has stated that consumers would be able to get the exchange at any official store or authorized reseller. The firm will replace the models for up to two years from the original date of purchase. Some tech blogs express that the third-generation Apple TV was not a major upgrade from its earlier version as its major addition was the support for 1080p video.
Accepting the fault in the third-gen Apple TV, a statement from the firm read, "Apple has determined that a very small number of Apple TV (3rd generation) products might experience one of these Wi-Fi related connectivity issues: Cannot locate network, Unable to join network, Dropped or intermittent connection."
The reports of the problems with Apple TV were majorly concentrated in the US while it is still unclear whether the consumers in Europe were affected or not. Shedding more light on the details of the affected TV's, Apple released the serial numbers of the problematic TV's.
The firm states, the serial numbers of the affected TV's end in DRHN. In addition, the third and fourth letters contain one of the following combinations of letters and numbers, H9 HC, HD, HF, HG, HH, HJ, HK, HL, HM, HN, HP, HQ, HR, HT, HV, HW, HX, J1, J2m J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, J8, J9. Did you face a problem with your Apple TV?

FIGUEROA: New LPGA commissioner seeks improvements for the sport
Reportedly there have been no formal discussions recently on a possible relationship, but no one is ruling it out there.
In the meantime, Whan continues to stump for the women's game.
"In the current world of the LPGA, it is a pretty good career opportunity for 75-100 women, but it's not a great opportunity for 175 women and I'd like to fix that," he said. "I can't right now, but I'm on it. I know I can provide a great platform for the great players of the world, and at the same time I want to provide a platform for the next great ones."
In the end, that's all anyone can ask for. Can't fault the guy for trying.

Today the American Lung Association released its latest air quality report: State of the Air 2012. The annual report looks at a range of air quality issues for communities across the nation. And this year there are signs that the work to help protect the citizens of the Birmingham area is making a difference. Gathings Law currently represents hundreds of clients in a lawsuit over air pollution in one part of the city.
The metro area has a long way to go before being considered a model community for air quality, but thanks to the work of the Jefferson County Department of Health, the EPA, state agencies, and other groups, the quality is improving. First, a look at where we stand today. The latest report shows the greater Birmingham community is the 12th worst in the nation for year-round particle pollution, a measure that looks at the amount of material suspended in the air we breathe. Those particles get into our lungs and eventually into our bloodstream wreaking havoc on our entire body. The area is also the 21st worst for ozone pollution. Jefferson County is also the 15th most polluted county in the nation in terms of the year-round particle pollution.
But good news can be found in those figures. The metro area improved four spots in the rankings for the year-round particle pollution and fell off the short-term particle pollution list entirely. Also the progress Jefferson County has made for the year-round particle pollution has earned it a passing grade from the American Lung Association. The Birmingham News has a good article looking at some of the reasons behind the improvements.
But we can't look at the improvements and declare victory. Just looking at the report you can see that there are tens of thousands of people in our community in groups that are at high-risk for being affected by the pollution. That is why we at Gathings Law continue to fight to protect our community from pollution problems and to make people responsible clean up the mess they left behind when they leave. Many homes have been damaged because of pollution and many residents have been harmed because of our poor air quality. We applaud the work of the agencies trying to clean up our community and hope to see Birmingham fall off of these most polluted lists entirely in the near future.

Ben Becker: Marlins are becoming must-see TV
The new name and new look Marlins are ready for their close-up.
They make their spring training television debut (1 p.m., Saturday, Fox Sports Florida) versus the St. Louis Cardinals.
Fox Sports Florida and Sun Sports will combine to televise 152 Marlins games during the regular season. The Marlins also are scheduled to make at least four national television appearances:
April 4 vs. Cardinals (7:05 p.m. ESPN)
May 12 vs. Mets (Noon, FOX)
June 9 vs. Rays (7 p.m. FOX)
June 16 at Rays (7 p.m. FOX)
Analyst Tommy Hutton returns to the broadcast booth for his 16th season and is joined by play-by-play man Rich Waltz (eighth season) and pre-game host and in-game reporter Craig Minervini (11th season)
The trio can always be counted on to be entertaining and informative. Hutton gives keen insight that could only be gleaned from a dozen years in the majors. Waltz nimbly moves the telecast along with a 'less is more' approach. Minervini executes the delicate task of being a reporter, but still having to maintain good working relationships with those he covers.
If you want even more Marlins, look no further than cable network Showtime. The Marlins will be featured on "The Franchise," a baseball version of HBO's NFL themed "Hard Knocks." Episodes are scheduled to premiere the Wednesday after the All-Star game in July.
The Marlins are must-see TV — for a change.
Tiger Woods, and to a lesser extent Rory McIlroy, drove The Honda Classic to its best ratings in a decade. Final-round coverage, in which McIlroy claimed the world number one ranking and Woods finished second with a sensational 62, earned a 3.2 national rating — up 78 percent from both last year (1.8) and 2010 (1.8). Locally, it produced a massive, Masters-esque 10.6 rating, which translates into more than 200,000 viewers.
World Golf Championships at Doral (1-3 p.m. Golf Channel , 3-7 p.m. NBC): Could Tiger, Rory and Phil Mickelson give us a Masters preview?
NASCAR at Las Vegas (2:30 p.m. FOX): Four drivers have combined to win 10 of the previous 14 races at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Last year, Carl Edwards visited victory lane, to join multi-race winners Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth and Jeff Burton.
Celtics at Lakers (3:30 p.m. ABC): The NBA's marquee match-up, although ABC says its broadcast last Sunday of Lakers vs. Heat was the network's most-viewed non-Christmas Day regular-season NBA game ever.
NCAA Basketball Championship Selection Show (6 p.m. CBS): The NCAA selection committee reveals the seedings and pairings for the field that will be vying for the Division I men's basketball crown. For the only three weeks of the year, college basketball will matter.

New imaging approach fast tracks drug testing for incurable prostate cancerMarch 17th, 2014 in Cancer /
The imaging approach involves a combination of bioluminescent cells, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT). This combination of techniques allows for the most accurate clarity on tumour growth within bone to date, as well as analysis of the impact on the healthiness of the bones themselves.
Cancer Research UK-funded scientists have developed a new way to test the effectiveness of a drug for prostate cancer that has spread to the bone, which is currently incurable, according to research published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
The researchers, based at the Cancer Research UK Cancer Imaging Centre at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, have successfully used a combination of imaging techniques* to see how a drug called cabozantinib can stop this type of prostate cancer growing in mice.
One great advantage of this approach is that the tumours closely resemble how prostate cancer develops in human bone. The ability to test these new treatments accurately offers huge potential for the use of drugs like cabozantinib in clinical trials.
Dr Simon Robinson, leader of the Radioisotope Physics team at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, said: "Until now we haven't been able to directly measure how effective treatments are for this type of incurable prostate cancer. But together these imaging techniques allow us to watch how the tumour and the surrounding bone are affected by new drugs.
"This approach can tell us how fast the cancer is growing and the potential impact on a patient's quality of life. Our work with the drug cabozantinib suggests it may provide pain relief in addition to stopping tumour growth. This method allows us to accelerate development of these promising new prostate cancer drugs from the laboratory to the clinic."
Prostate cancer affects around 41,700 men in the UK each year. Over 80 per cent of men will survive the disease for at least five years. But prostate cancer that has spread to the bone is much more difficult to treat.
Nell Barrie, Cancer Research UK's senior science communications manager, said: "Prostate cancer most often spreads to the bones, where it is currently incurable. We need this type of research to develop frontline treatments for prostate cancer patients. This approach will help us discover successful treatments more quickly and save more lives."

A nationally coordinated effort is needed to assess the state of formal and informal climate change education and communication in the United States, identify knowledge gaps and opportunities, and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different national organizational structures and approaches to promote climate change education and communication. This requires coordination between relevant organizations involved in education and increased federal funding for research on education and communication.
Recommendation 10:
The federal government should establish a national task force that includes formal and informal educators, government agencies, policy makers, business leaders, and scientists, among others, to set national goals and objectives and to develop a coordinated strategy to improve climate change education and communication.
The informational needs of American society to respond to climate change range from basic awareness and understanding of the problem itself to highly technical information used only by specialists in specific fields. Communicators at all levels of government and across all sectors of society will thus need to provide a wide range of different information types for different audiences, from individual households to the nation as a whole. When information is tailored to user needs, communicated clearly, and accompanied by decision support tools that enable the exploration of alternatives and encourage flexible responses, decision makers can develop more informed, credible, and effective responses to climate change. The federal government can and should play a leading role in setting national goals, objectives, and strategies and coordinating effective information systems to support America's climate choices.

New Jersey congressman's bill would require voter-verified paper ballot and random audits
Rep. Rush Holt recently reintroduced the Voter Confidence and Increased Accessibility Act, landmark legislation that would create a national standard of voting to help ensure that every vote is recorded and counted as intended. The bill would require paper ballot voting systems accompanied by accessible ballot marking devices and require routine random audits of electronic voting tallies. The bipartisan bill has 75 cosponsors.
"It is time we stop using elections as beta tests for unreliable electronic voting machines," Holt said. "The ability to vote is the most important right as it is the right through which citizens secure all other rights. Voters shouldn't have any doubts about whether their votes count and are counted. Congress should pass a national standard ensuring that all voters can record their votes on paper and requiring that in every election, randomly selected precincts be audited."
In every federal election that has taken place since the Help America Vote Act was enacted in 2003, citizen watchdog groups have gathered and reported information pertaining to voting machine failures. In the 2004 election, more than 4,800 voting machine were reported to the Election Incident Reporting System, from all but eight states. In the 2006 election, a sampling of voting machine problems gathered by election integrity groups and media reports revealed more than 1,000 such incidents from more than 300 counties in all but 14 states. And in 2008, the Our Vote Live hotline received reports of almost 2,000 voting machine problems in all but 12 states.While many states and counties have addressed verified voting on their own — jurisdictions serving 10 million voters moved to paper ballot voting systems between 2006 and 2008 alone — in 2008, 19 states (7 complete states, and some number of counties in approximately a dozen other states) conducted completely unauditable elections.
Paperless electronic voting seems more modern and many election officials like it, but it is entirely unverifiable and unauditable. Because voting is secret, only the voter can verify that the vote is recorded properly, and when the only record of the vote is digital the voter cannot do so. Computer scientists say that computers are unreliable without an independent audit mechanism, and without paper ballots there is nothing to audit.
The 2008 U.S. Senate race in Minnesota demonstrated the importance of verified voting. In that race, approximately 3 million voter-marked paper ballots were counted by hand to confirm the result. Of those 3 million ballots, only 14 did not receive a 5-0 unanimous vote of the bipartisan canvassing board. Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie later said that because Minnesota uses a paper ballot voting system, it made it possible to "do the recount quickly, fairly, accurately, and with such a high degree of trust."
"The clear trend is towards paper ballots. In fact, every jurisdiction that has chosen to change its voting system since 2006 has chosen to use paper ballots with optical scan counting. That should be the standard," Holt said.

It is true that the swastika has been layered with negative and violent meaning. Sadly, this is from a very short time in the life of this symbol. 16,000 years ago the gammadion and swastika were symbols of oceanic and atmospheric gyres, and a symbol for the movement of time. It became an important symbol in Eastern cultures, used to communicate the concepts of health, power, and wisdom. But one must know what a word or symbol means to the culture in which it is being used, and use them with care. Perhaps centuries from now this misunderstood symbol will regain some of its previous respectability.

A legal battle ensued over a recent Act passed by members of the Liberian Legislature to amend the Act establishing the Central Bank of Liberia or CBL, forbidding its Executive Governor from participating in active politics.
The move to amend certain provisions in the CBL Acts comes amid perceived fears that the current CBL Governor Joseph Mills Jones, whose microeconomics policy of dishing out loans to petty traders here is being viewed as one with a presidential ambition.
But the action of the Legislature is now being challenged before the Supreme Court with petitioners, the National Citizen Solidarity Council seeking to overturn the action by the Legislature.
President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf's position on the new act is not known to the public; weeks after both houses of the Legislature concurred and forwarded it to her to be signed into law.
In the petition filed at the Supreme Court before Associate Justice in Chambers Jamesetta Wolokollie on 20, February, the petitioner's represented by Cllr. Theophilus C. Gould and Atty. J. Laveli Supuwood prayed the court to determine the amendment as unconstitutional.
The constitutional crisis erupts over the swift amendment of the act establishing the Central Bank of Liberia or CBL at a time the bank's Executive Governor Dr. Mills Jones faces longstanding mixed reaction on a loan scheme that many say is a designed political strategy to give him an edge in the 2017 presidential election.
The petitioner said the 'unconstitutional' amendment made by the Legislature now sets new grounds and methods for impeachment of the executive governor, the deputy and the board of governors of the CBL.
But one contention being raised by loyalists of the CBL Executive Governor Dr. Mills Jones and his deputy through their lawyers is that at the time of their appointment to the entity, grounds of removal and the requirement for impeachment contained in the act establishing the CBL were different.
Contrary to the 1986 Constitution, the petitioner's lawyers are arguing that the amended act sets new grounds and method for impeachment after the officers had taken offices.
The amendment provides that the Executive Governor of the Central Bank of Liberia and members of the Board of Governors shall be prohibited to contest political office(s) while serving in their respective offices.
It furthered that they shall not be qualified to contest any electable office within three years consecutively after the expiration of their tenure with the Central Bank of Liberia.
"The said amendment is violative of the constitution and should be declared unconstitutional and petitioner so prays," Dr. Jones' lawyers had pleaded.
In specific reference to Chapter 11 of the 1986 Constitution of Liberia, the petitioner's lawyers argued that the amendment contravenes the Constitution which provides for equal protection under the law.
They said the amendment also violates articles 15 and 18 of the 1986 Constitution of the Republic of Liberia which guarantees the freedom of expression and equal opportunity for work.
They described the entire amendment as being exclusionary and contrary to the spirit and intent of the 1986 Constitution and is therefore unconstitutional.
