Patients, doctors staying away from implantable RFID chips

Human chips more than skin-deepAugust 23, 2004
VeriChip, which has created a system for putting RFID chips into humans for medical-record tracking, held an initial public offering on Friday, and the company's stock has been struggling ever since. The stock is currently trading at around $6.15. The company released 3.1 million shares in the IPO for $6.50 a share.
Part of the problem is likely the lackluster sales for the company's most famous product.
Only 222 medical patients in total have opted to get RFID chips from VeriChip implanted as of the end of 2006, according to documents filed by the company with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of its initial public offering. It's a modest number, the company says, and revenue for these systems is far below projections.
"To date, we have only generated approximately $0.1 million in revenue ($100,000) from sales of the microchip inserter kits, significantly less than we had projected at the beginning of 2006. We may never achieve market acceptance or more than nominal or modest sales of this system," the company stated.
The slow sales will likely hearten the many critics of the company. When the company first began touting the technology nearly three years ago, it was criticized by civil libertarians, who saw the chips as a gateway to privacy erosion, and by religious consumers some of whom said that implantable chips were the mark of the beast.
In its SEC filing, the company stated that many patients are probably unwilling to get chipped, the company said, and doctors have likely been reluctant to discuss the procedure with clients. Privacy issues and bad publicity have also been factors.
Virtually all the company's revenues come from two Canadian companies it acquired in 2005. These companies, EXI Wireless and Instantel, specialize in infant tracking and "wander" detection systems in rest homes. In these systems, RFID tags alert nurses and medical professionals if an infant or other patient is passing through the exits or into unauthorized areas. In these systems, however, the RFID chip is contained in a wristband.
VeriChip, in fact, may have to begin to stockpile equipment from its suppliers to stay in business. Digital Angel, which invented a similar system for the pet market, granted VeriChip an exclusive license to market the technology to humans. (Digital Angel in turn gets its chips from Raytheon Microelectronics Espana.) The agreement, however, stipulates that VeriChip must buy $875,000 worth of RFID readers and implantable chips from Digital Angel in 2007 and $1.75 million in 2008. If it doesn't, Digital Angel can sign new agreements. VeriChip said it will take actions to prevent the license from lapsing.
The company had earlier scaled back the terms of its IPO. It initially planned to sell 4.3 million shares for between $6.50 and $8.50 per share.
Despite the slow sales, VeriChip says it will continue to market its implantable RFID technology. The FDA approved the used of implantable RFID chips in humans in October 2004. Approximately 1,200 doctors and 66 hospitals have agreed to try out the VeriChip system, assuming patients request it and databases support it.
The company estimates that 45 million patients in the U.S. alone could benefit from implanted RFID chips. The idea is to put medical information into the chip so that paramedics and others could obtain information about medical allergies and other issues in a person if they are unconscious and they lost their medic alert bracelets.

- New Atom Bomb
- I have no doubt that the Atomic Bomb saved millions of lives when used to end World War Two. But it was like opening Pandora's box, and choosing between the lesser of two evils. Since the creation of the Atomic Bomb, the world has lived in fear ever since.
The only reason we have not had an Atomic War is there has not yet been a mad man/woman in power in any major nation such as the United States, the USSR, or even China. An all out Atomic War would be insane, and an end to civilization as we know it.
We opened Pandora's box and ended World War Two. Are we once again going to open another Pandora's box the RFID Chips and place the world in total fear once more? To say that it would be like living in Nazi Germany would be understatement.
The only comparison I can possibly imagine is that Humans would be place in a time equal to that of the Dark Ages.
Quite possibly we as a civilization just did not realize the implications of the Atomic Bomb after it was used. Maybe we just did not have the foresight, or technology. We can no longer used that excuse, nor can we justify releasing the contents of this new Pandora's box upon the world by any measure of the imagination, economic, or other social benefit.
The risk is just too great, and the fear is so unimaginable. And for all the readers who attempt to justify the use of RFID chips as a scientific achievement for the good of human kind are fools. RFID chips are not like Penacillian, or the Polio vaccine. The only possible risk associated with Penacillian, or the Polio vaccine would be the refusal to someone deemed undesirable by those in power.
Would the refusal to use RFID chips cost lives? Would stopping production put people at risk? Is it the universal savior that brings world peace? No, and don't be a fool and look for some justification to place such power in the hands of those who seek nothing more than profit, power and self gratification. Don't do it. Stop it now before it's too late.
And don't listen to such garbage as " I can protect my child by tracing them. " There are other means. First and foremost is learning to become a good parent.

- RE: Use it to protect people, especially children
- The question is " Will it stop there?" or even a better question " Who will have access, and who will control it?"
There are other means available that are much more efficient and cost effective. Let me pose a another question: Felons are required to give DNA upon their conviction. This DNA will be used to find suspects in years to come once the felon is released.
Now what happens to that DNA if the person is found scientifically without a doubt innocent?
Do they destroy the DNA, or remove it's listing on the National Criminal database? At this writing there has never been one instance where when a person has been proven innocent that their DNA has been destroyed or removed from the National Criminal database.
Absolute Power corrupts absolutely.

The other serious drawback is that the 'passive' circuitry is

there is no evidence that humans are somehow immune to them.

- Like anything in life, you must look at consequences, who will benefit, who will suffer, the pros and the cons, etc.
You must also consider your own ignorance or at least question your ability to make a decision, and whether you are capable of making an educated decision. Are you knowledgeable enough, can you foresee things, can you see the big picture if life and realize the multiplicity of things that would be affected by even a single act, through history.
In the case of this VeriChip. The only reason the company is desperately looking for its acceptance is for profit. They did the accounting, and figured on millions of people to be stupid enough to get tagged like a sheep or a cow. Since that has not happened and they are strapped for cash, they will try to survive, by trying to get the government, hospitals, the media, and people in general to adopt this evil device. In their attempt at this, they will try, through the media, etc., to appeal to your ignorance, fears, insecurities, and for some people, there lack of intelligence, to get you to accept being tagged like an animal.
You must like I said, be able to see the TRUE reason for this. If you do not believe in the bible, then you will not believe the reason is evil, as in the MARK OF THE BEAST. Consider this, the bible predicted this. If you are full of sin, you will be blinded by this truth.
This is the chain of future events as they will unfold for the adoption of this evil chip:
(1) First people were conditioned with electronic cards, debit cards, shopping cards, etc.
(2) People were condition with piercings and tattoos, so they would be used to and more willing to accept another impregnation into their flesh.
(3) Next will be the REAL ID card.
(4) Next will be the voluntary or involuntary RFID chip in your body.
(5) Next it will be compulsory to get the RFID chip, for you will not be able to even function in modern society without it, PER DESIGN. This will be so that you will be the slave to the elite, otherwise known as the Illuminati. If you just think this is some conspiracy junk, you are gravely mistaken, Even if you are not religious, you will be just as affected, you will be a slave to the elite and wealthy. As there will be the slaved and the wealthy only then.
Most people, especially in the developed countries, and especially in the USA, have been conditioned for over 100 years, to accept more and more abuse, degradation of human rights, to behave more and more immorally, and on and on.
Do the research yourself, and if you are not already morally or spiritually dead, the TRUTH will come out. You can try to kill truth; but all you can do is hide it or suppress it for a time.
I would rather be DEAD than be tagged for slavery!

Joyce Berg
Professor of Accounting
Director of the Iowa Electronic Markets (IEM)
Ph.D. in Accounting, University of Minnesota, 1988
MBA, University of Minnesota, 1985
BSB in Accounting, University of Minnesota, 1979
Faculty Advisor, Beta Alpha Psi Faculty Advisor, Tippie Build Habitat for Humanity Project Faculty Advisor, Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program
April is approaching, and for many Americans it's a month of teeth gnashing and dread as the tax bill comes due. For Joyce Berg, it's a teachable moment.
An accounting professor in the Tippie College of Business, Berg is the faculty advisor for the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. Each year, about 100 UI students—most of them accounting majors—prepare 1040 returns for qualified persons who live in Johnson County.
Berg says the program is a valuable service for both students and their clients. For the taxpayers, VITA provides the opportunity to have their taxes done by trained preparers for free. Since taxpayers must face some level of economic disadvantage to qualify for VITA help—low income, single parent, full-time student—can't afford to hire a professional, and can't navigate the complex tax maze on their own.
"There are no easy returns for the taxpayer base we work with," Berg says. "They have the Earned Income Credit, child tax credit, sometimes an ex-husband they split tax benefits with. We have grandmothers as the primary caregiver for their grandchildren, which has tax implications. Many of our clients are students and could be eligible for one of four different kinds of education tax benefits. And we're still in the Midwest Disaster Area from 2008, so some might receive a tax benefit from that."
For future accountants, the program is more than a chance to practice real-life number crunching. VITA also teaches them the "soft skills" of building a relationship with clients that Berg says can't easily be taught in a classroom.
"A large part of an accountant's job is communicating with other people, especially people who don't speak the same financial language, and students learn how to do that with VITA," Berg says. "Many of the clients also come from different backgrounds than the students, so helps them appreciate the diversity in our community."
Berg became the advisor for VITA in 2005, and has since worked to expand its presence in the community. She increased marketing, partnered with various Johnson County social services agencies to spread the word, and expanded its reach by adding satellite operations at locations around Iowa City, Coralville, and North Liberty. She introduced electronic filing, too, making it easier for students to work on more complex returns.
The work has paid off. In her first year, VITA served 129 clients, most of them UI students, from its primary location in the Iowa City Public Library. Last year, the students prepared 922 returns from its multiple sites around the county, and she expects it to pass 1,000 returns this year. VITA clients received more than $1.2 million in refunds last year, "a lot of it money they might not have gotten back if they'd prepared their own returns."
Berg's service to the community goes beyond VITA. She's also the faculty advisor and primary organizer for Tippie Build, a partnership between Tippie College students and Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity. Wearing her Tippie Build hat, Berg and her students have organized dozens of fund-raisers in the Tippie College that have raised more than $125,000 for home building, worked with student groups and departments across the college to find volunteers, and recruited accounting firms to let their employees volunteer at the build site.
As a result, hundreds of Tippie students, faculty, and staff and other volunteers have built two new homes in Iowa City for low-income families, in 2007 and 2009. They're working on a third home this spring, with a dedication date planned for May.
On top of that, Berg also finds time to teach, publish her research, and codirect the Iowa Electronic Markets (IEM) futures prediction market. Berg says the hard work is worth it, though, because her experiences with VITA and Tippie Build do more than just provide a community service.
"It's great when we finish and we can see the results of our work, whether it's a happy family moving into a house or an excited VITA client seeing how much of a refund she'll receive," Berg says. "And I love working with students in settings outside the classroom. They're good people who like working hard and doing a good service to the community, and that's inspiring for me."

Jesus as a Yoga Master
April 13th, 2008
"I wasn't sent to the West," Yogananda often told his audiences, "by Christ and the great masters of India to dogmatize you with a new theology. Jesus himself asked Babaji to send someone here to teach you the science of Kriya Yoga, that people might learn how to commune with God directly. I want to help you to attain actual experience of Him, through your daily practice of Kriya Yoga." – Paramhansa Yogananda
The final marble statue which is of Jesus just arrived last week from India. Our line of masters or gurus is 5 deep (Jesus, Babaji, Lahiri Mahasaya, Swami Yukteswar and Paramhansa Yogananda) and Jesus holds pole position as you can see from Yogananda's comment above. He is viewed by Yogananda devotees worldwide as a great Master of yoga.
Which is the reason we returned to India to commission the same artist in Jaipur, India to hand-carve this statue of Jesus sitting in meditation. He is sitting in lotus posture with hands upturned. The facial features were drawn from a photograph of the Hoffman painting similar to the one which many of your meditation altars. Funds were donated to Ananda Village as our annual community Christmas gift by its members and it just arrived last week.
See previous posts for information on the other statues of the Masters.

In the wake of the tragic shooting death of 20 small children and seven adults in Newtown, Conn. last Friday, many government leaders have renewed calls for stronger gun control legislation. They have also addressed the importance of comprehensive mental health care amid calls for a cultural shift eliminating the glorification of gun violence as entertainment.
Police say that last Friday, 20-year-old Adam Lanza, a resident of Newtown, killed 26 people at the Sandy Hook Elementary School before shooting and killing himself. Lanza had already shot and killed his mother, Nancy, earlier that morning before heading to the school.
According to National Public Radio, Lanza was armed with a high-powered rifle, two handguns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition when he arrived at the school.
Congressman Tim Bishop, who represents the 1st Congressional District in Suffolk County, said on Monday he favors "common sense restrictions" on guns and ammunition and called for the reinstatement of a federal ban on assault weapons — a law that expired in 2005.
"I said at the time I thought it was a terrible, terrible mistake we allowed it to expire," said Bishop.
"I think we should be putting in place legislation that would ban high capacity magazines," he added. "In New York, you cannot buy a magazine that carries more then 10 rounds.
"If that had been in place in Arizona last year a lot of people in Tucson would still be alive, a lot more people in Aurora, Colorado would be alive," he said referring to the shooting that seriously injured Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and left six others dead in January 2011 and another at a movie theater this past summer in which 12 were killed. "There is legislative action we can take that is reasonable."
Bishop wondered how many mass shootings it would take before government leaders were willing to take forceful, but reasonable action. He also would like to see loopholes closed that allow the purchase of guns at gun shows without a background check.
"Enough is enough. It wasn't enough after Columbine, and then not enough after Tucson, and not enough after Aurora," he said. "Now that 20 first graders have been killed if that is not enough, I don't know what is. Is it 50 kindergarteners? When do you finally put your foot down and say we cannot go on this way and we have to summon the will and political courage to take on the special interests and make this happen?"
Bishop said ensuring that mental health care is available and comprehensive is critical.
"I think on the federal level the thing we can do to be the most helpful is to protect funding that flows to institutions and individuals that provide counseling and care," said Bishop. "One of my fears is, if we do take a jump off the fiscal cliff, the kind of programs that provide health care or access to remedies will be cut."
"We have to take this more seriously than we do, both in diagnosis and treatment," he adds. "We need to bring more resources to the table to help more people."
Bishop agreed with calls for a change in culture, particularly in terms of the glorification of violence, but felt that a first step should be to see these "weapons of mass destruction" unavailable for purchase.
"That is a very sane, very reasonable first step," he said. "Let me tell you, losing 20 six-year-olds is mass destruction and it is preventable."
New York Senator Charles Schumer agreed, and is calling for a ban on high-capacity clips and for the reinstatement of the assault weapons ban on the federal level. He also said the country should explore how it can prevent criminals and mentally-unstable individuals from obtaining weapons like those Lanza used at Sandy Hook.
"The horror of what happened is beyond words and leaves a permanent lump in your throat," said Schumer in a statement. "To senselessly lose so many innocent lives breaks your heart."
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to all who lost a loved one in Newtown, to all who are injured, and to those who survived," he added. "The people of New York will help in any way we can as our fellow citizens struggle to comprehend these events. Perhaps an awful tragedy like this will bring us together so we can do what it takes to prevent this horror from being repeated again."
On Wednesday afternoon, President Barack Obama announced the creation of a task force, led by Vice President Joe Biden, to provide recommendations on how to reduce gun violence. President Obama said he expects concrete recommendations in January, and no later.
New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand praised President Obama's announcement in a statement issued Wednesday.
"I stand firmly with President Obama's call to action today for a comprehensive approach that refuses to accept gun violence as routine," she said. "Congress has ducked action on common sense gun laws for too long."
"Keeping our children safe from the scourge of gun violence is not a Republican or a Democratic principle, this is an issue for all Americans," she continued. "There is no political ideology that finds this loss of life acceptable. The truth is that supporting the Second Amendment and reducing gun violence are compatible and consistent. Responsible gun owners vehemently oppose the kind of gun violence afflicting the streets of America."
On the state level, prior to President Obama's announcement, New York State Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele also called for the creation of a national commission to devise an action plan to address a comprehensive list of issues, including gun control.
"Gun safety, mental health care, and the underlying culture that extols and glorifies violence must all be a part of the national discussion," said Thiele. "Piecemeal or symbolic gestures are not enough."
On Monday Thiele said while New York has an assault weapons ban in place, it could be expanded to outlaw 50-caliber guns and any military-style gun.
"If there is a law that could have prevented the unspeakable tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut we should find common ground to pursue it," said New York State Senator Ken LaValle. "That said, New York State has some of the toughest gun laws on the books … The majority of gun crimes committed in New York State are by criminals who use illegal guns. I believe we should take steps to curb illegal gun use by increasing penalties and enacting mandatory minimum sentences."
"The other portion, I think, is obviously the mental healthcare system," said Thiele. "New York, especially with Medicaid funding to a large degree, has better mental health care than most but anyone who looks around the East End knows how hard it is to find services."
"And then obviously, there is the cultural aspect of this – the movies and video games that glorify violence. We have to change this on a basic level," he added. "I know it looks like a daunting task, but I think back 20 or 30 years ago in terms of people's attitudes about smoking and drinking and driving, and we have been able to change that culturally."
Thiele said for himself, and he hopes for others, the tragedy of Newtown is a turning point – and a moment that must not be forgotten with the passage of time.
"This is where common sense should prevail, where the public rises up and says, 'no more, we need to stop this'. In President Obama's presidency alone, he has had to go to four different places to console families who have suffered because of gun violence."

Shia LaBeouf Quits Broadway Play — What Went Wrong?
Shia LaBeouf won't be transforming into a Broadway star anytime soon.
Shia has dropped out of starring in the Broadway play Orphans due to "creative differences," according to the L.A. Times.
The play is still set to begin previews on March 19, with Alec Baldwin also starring in it.
This was supposed to be the 26-year-old Transformers star's Broadway debut. No actor has yet been announced as his replacement in the play about a powerful man who's kidnapped by two brothers.
This is just the latest odd decision Shia has made, leading some to wonder whether he's burning bridges in the entertainment industry.
Case in point: Shia will apparently be having real sex in his upcoming film Nymphomaniac, he dropped acid for a different film, and he publicly took potshots at former mentor Steven Spielberg. Yeesh.
This is just the latest hole Shia will have to dig his way out of. (Get it — "hole"? Because he was in Holes?)

When the British weather takes a turn for the bright and sunny, Bournemouth is the place to be.
As a former student of Bournemouth University, I had only three years to make the most of this bustling seaside resort before the trials of grown-up life drew me back home. There's something quite refreshing about coastal life and not just because the sea air clears up my hayfever in a jiffy. While my housemates spent their mornings – and afternoons – tucked up in bed (likely suffering from one too many Jägerbombs), I enjoyed exploring the many delights this corner of Dorset has to offer.
The highlight of Bournemouth is, of course, its award-winning beaches. Voted by holidaymakers as one of the best beaches in Europe, a trip to the Bournemouth seafront is a cheap alternative to the sandy shores of Alicante or Lanzarote. You can't go wrong with a lazy day at the beach (unless you forget to apply sun lotion – ouch). During the peak season and during unexpected heatwaves, crowds tend to cluster around Bournemouth Pier, close to town and recreational amenities, but with seven miles of golden beaches between Hengistbury Head in the east and Sandbanks in the west, there's no excuse not to find your own private patch of sun, sand and sea.
However, Bournemouth has plenty more at hand than a day at the beach. Book your stay at the Bournemouth Seafront Hotel and you could equally take advantage of the town's thriving nightlife.
For food lovers and rumbling bellies alike, Bournemouth has a wide variety of restaurants to choose from, including popular chains, but an evening meal at one of Bournemouth's independent eateries makes for a unique dining experience with delicious cuisine cooked up from local produce. Directly opposite the Bournemouth International Centre, close to the pier, is 'The Crab at Bournemouth', serving fresh fish and seafood caught off the coast. If you don't mind an evening stroll along the promenade, a personal favourite is 'Urban Reef', just a short walk eastward by Boscombe Pier.
If, after your meal, you're feeling partial to a boogie, Bournemouth also has a ridiculous number of bars and nightclubs, popular among the town's student scene, as well as with visiting stag and hen parties. For something a little different to the usual discotheque, try a night at 'Lola Lo', a tiki-themed nightclub next to Bournemouth Square, or 'Halo', set inside a grade II listed church next to Debenhams. Students often take up most of the dancefloor, but if you would prefer to avoid us young'uns, Saturday evenings attract a more mature customer.
If and when your hangover subsides the next morning it might be worth shying away from the crowds and visiting a few of the area's other hidden gems. For scenic views of the coast and countryside, hop on the number 50 bus from Bournemouth Square to Swanage, and make sure you grab yourself a seat on the open-top deck. If you fancy a taste of nostalgia, one of Swanage's local attractions is its heritage railway. As part of a university assignment, I was lucky enough to ride in the cab of one of its steam locomotives, but sadly this opportunity is not available to all visitors.
Finally, a much overlooked part of Bournemouth, yet one which I highly recommend visiting, is the village of Pokesdown, two miles east of central Bournemouth. As part of an ongoing regeneration project, the main street is lined with an assortment of independent boutiques selling handicrafts, vintage fashions, antiques and more. 'Clobber' the oldest vintage shop on the street, is a wondrous emporium of men's and women's fashions from bygone eras. Another favourite is 'Love From Hetty & Dave', a colourful shop filled with the most adorable handcrafted leather jewellery and accessories. Be sure to speak to the lovely Zoe, who you will find sewing away at the back of the shop.
All in all, Bournemouth has much to offer the eager visitor, from beach breaks to vintage shopping. But why listen to me rabbit on all day, when you could be enjoying the South Coast sunshine yourself? Gather your friends, book in a weekend and, for goodness' sake, remember to pack sun lotion.

When a loved one dies, financial matters are the last thing a family wants to think about. Selecting the right life insurance policy lets spouses, children and other survivors focus on the healing process, rather than the financial turmoil that can accompany a family member's death. But picking the right plan isn't always easy-there are key things to think about when choosing the best life insurance policy to fit your needs.
The first question to consider is what form of life insurance will fit your needs best: Term Life Insurance, which lasts a finite amount of time, or Permanent Life Insurance, which can last throughout your lifetime.
With Term Life Insurance, you can choose when your coverage expires-typically 10, 15, 20 or 30 years down the road. The monthly premiums you pay depend on the amount of coverage you select and the length of term period you chose. If you pass away before the end of the term period or policy expires, your beneficiaries will receive a lump sum payment.
Three key benefits of Term Life Insurance include:
Permanent Life Insurance can provide you with a lifetime of insurance coverage. Unlike Term Life Insurance, Permanent Life Insurance allows you to build cash value that can be accessed in addition to your death benefits. However, this ability to accrue cash value means your annual premiums would likely be higher than with Term Life Insurance.
Three key benefits of Permanent Life include:
You can select the best fit out of four Permanent Life Insurance options:
Whole Life Insurance: With Whole Life Insurance, you pay the same premium each year for the course of your life. (If you start young, your annual payments will likely be lower.) You'll enjoy a guaranteed interest rate, allowing the plan's cash value to grow over time. And as long as you continue to meet your premium obligations, you can take out a loan against the plan, then pay it back at the current policy loan interest rate. You can inform your decision using Allstate's Whole Life Insurance vs. Term Life Insurance online calculator.
Universal Life Insurance: Unlike Whole Life Insurance, Universal Life Insurance gives you the flexibility to modify when and how much you want to pay in premiums, as long as your policy has achieved a certain level of cash value. You may also have the ability to adjust the amount of death benefits survivors receive without changing policies (although a medical exam may be required). Consider using Allstate's Universal Life Insurance vs. Term Life Insurance calculator to help compare your options.
Variable Universal Life Insurance: This type of insurance allows you to invest your net premiums-giving you the opportunity to achieve a higher rate of return than a guaranteed rate. Your death benefits will not be impacted by the performance of premium investments; however, the cash value of your plan could decrease if the investments perform poorly. You can use Allstate's Variable Universal Life Insurance vs. Term Life Insurance tool to learn additional details.
Equity-Indexed Universal Life Insurance: Having an Equity-Indexed Universal Life Insurance policy means that the cash value of your plan will be pegged to a mainstream market index, such as the S&P 500®, with predetermined growth rate maximums and minimums.
You work hard to make sure your loved ones are taken care of. Help ensure that loving care doesn't stop once you're gone by getting a free life insurance quote online, or contacting an Allstate financial representative in your area to learn more about these life insurance options.

Mindstorms and younger designers
A visit to Kid Technic has me thinking. Mindstorms has definitely had a positive impact on the younger designers (kids), and if you visit Lego's official discussion forums you'll see the excitement over the upcoming release is high. Organizations like Kid Technic and FLL need to be congratulated for offering this type of hands-on activity that encourages our youth to investigate the math & science subjects.
Kid Technic has a nice little summary for how they use robot building to teach some great concepts to kids here.
Once again, I'm encouraging any of you who have the time or interest to get in touch with the First Lego League and volunteer. I'm looking forward to late-April when the International FLL Championship will take place here in Atlanta, Georgia (USA).
Also be sure to check out the NXT summary on the Kid Technic site.

Maybe it's just me, but there seems to be a huge gap between the challenges in the Junior FLL and the regular FLL. I think there ought to be something that engages kids in the basics of structural design and mechanics before they get to the robotics level.
Because the NXT system uses a motor box -- rather than a basic motor -- I'm afraid that certain lessons aren't going to be learned. On one level, Mindstorms becomes easier, but it may also mean that kids miss out on having to learn certain basics.
I think appropriate Junior FLL activities would have kids making simple machines and then working with basic motors and gears. Or making cars and then figuring out how to power them with rubber bands.
I know there's a vehicle component to the JFLL contest, but it just doesn't seem to me to be enough to prep the kids for the jump to robotics.

Can you add some more detail to your description of the overall need? I think I understand what you're saying, but I'd like you to go into it a bit more...
The reason I ask is that I am concentrating my energies on teaching the younger designers and developing some written content to help them move forward in a logical manner... any suggestions, comments, help, or ideas you provide will be most appreciated.

When D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus returned home to Sag Harbor after Hurricane Sandy, they discovered the heating system in their historic home had been completely destroyed as had their navy blue Mercedes Benz — its computer fried as a result of the tidal surge of salt water.
They were by no means alone.
Flooding overwhelmed their Sag Harbor neighborhood, including Spring, Garden and Howard streets, during the late October storm. Without power, village pumps meant to counteract flooding failed and with no where to go the tidal surge resulted in water levels as high as three feet in some homes.
In April, the Sag Harbor Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) granted a variance that will ultimately allow William Egan to expand his Garden Street home. FEMA and county regulations require the house and grade on the property be elevated — something neighbors have argued will exacerbate drainage problems in the neighborhood.
After reaching out to the village board and the harbor committee — presenting documentation from environmental activist Larry Penny and engineer Louis Schwartz that this construction will negatively impact neighboring homes and drainage — on May 1 the neighbors sent a letter to the village board calling for a moratorium on all development in low lying and flood zone areas.
The neighbors ask for the moratorium until the village board completes a comprehensive review of drainage in low-lying areas.
The letter also asks the village board review the current wetlands map for its accuracy. In Penny's report, he identifies a portion in the rear of the Egan property as a wetland area likely separated from other wetlands through development.
And it is development that originally resulted in drainage being stymied in the neighborhood, noted Hegedus and Pennebaker in an interview this week. With the creation of West Water Street in the 1960s, the neighborhood was no longer able to naturally drain through its wetlands system.
"We are just worried about making it worse," said Hegedus.
"We are just one of many neighborhoods that are facing these issues," she added, noting global warming and rising tides will make flooding in coastal communities — and the storms that cause tidal surges — more prevalent.
"I think we have to start thinking about drainage in new ways," she said.
For now, the neighbors will continue to fight for any relief they can get, including the introduction of generators to power the pump systems in the event of a power outage like the one that occurred during Hurricane Sandy.
"It's the dark shadow of future storms we are thinking about," said Pennebaker.
The Sag Harbor Village Board will meet on Tuesday, May 14 at 6 p.m.

How to get your kids to take adult medicine
If feeding brussel sprouts to my kids was a daunting task, then giving them adult medicine is even tougher. Kids hate to take tablets and other adult medicines, but sometimes there's not much option. You cannot give them that yummy tasting medicine all the time! There are certain treatments out there that if a child is sick or have a headache then they can take liquid gel pills and it will be easier to swallow.
For instance, liquid chlorophyll is a mineral rich supplement that has been suggested to assist in tissue repair. Along with this, it purifies the blood and also helps the liver build red blood cells, natural internal deodorizer and tissue healer. With about 15 cc or each tablespoon you give your child a concentrated solution of 100 mg of pure Chlorophyllins that has been derived from alfalfa, which is certified organically grown alfalfa.
Along with this, liquid softgels are good for adults too because they can be absorbed into the body more easily. For instance, for kids who suffer from some kind of calcium deficiency or have bene suggested calcium supplements, the liquid Calcium Softgels with D3 100 Sgels by Nature's Blend is suggested.
The product promotes strong bones and teeth and comes with easy-to-swallow benefits. The mineral is essential for healthy bones and teeth and it also has vitamin D that helps bones absorb calcium from and helps in overall growth.
In this reference, I would like to share that not all adult medicines are safe for children. In particular tablets can be a choking hazard if given forcefully. And breaking them or powdering them is not an option all the time. So opt for softer gels and liquids that are more beneficial and easily absorbed. And do consult your physician or pediatrician rather than assuming that a particular medicine is safe for your child.

Thanks for the security tip, I hadn't thought of that. I have removed my
CSIF public key from my local authorized_keys file. I looked at other
people's proposed solutions, but they all undo the convenience that I
was hoping to gain, so I'm now only going to use the CSIF key to connect
to other machines in the CSIF labs.

One of the most anticipated shows returning to the air this fall is Showtime's acclaimed drama Homeland, which had an uneven second season after a brilliant beginning. That premiere happens on Sunday, September 29th, but while you're waiting check out John Lahr's profile of star Claire Danes in this week's New Yorker. (It's also available online.) Danes' breakout role as Angela Chase in the near-perfect one season wonder My So-Called Life when she was all of fourteen remains my favorite portrayal of a teenage girl on television-- and while Homeland isn't streamable anywhere on the internet, MSCL is in its entirety on Hulu.

Almost every team has a big playmaker. But not every team is a contender. While some teams go streaking, dominating, or even undefeated, there are plenty of teams who still struggle to win. Even with a star player, some teams just can't win, or get lucky.With the NFL changing every season, we never exactly know what to expect. But overall, in the grand scheme of things, we all know that there are certain teams who will be bad for a while, without some drastic changes.Plenty of teams don't have a chance of contending -- and their star players get overused and unsupported by the rest of the team. But who are these players? Who are the best players on the worst teams in the NFL?

Rain Seen Helping Boost Cocoa Crops in Ivory Coast, Ghana
Feb. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Rain in cocoa-producing countries in West Africa, the world's main growing region, is set to help the development of the mid-crop, the smaller of two annual harvests that usually starts in April.
Most of Ivory Coast and Ghana, the world's largest cocoa producers, will get 10 millimeters to 20 millimeters (0.4 inch to 0.8 inch) of rainfall by March 3, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Washington. Precipitation in some areas of Ghana will be as much as 50 millimeters, data on the NOAA's website show.
Cocoa climbed 9.9 percent in London this year on speculation dry conditions would hurt the development of the crops. The dry harmattan winds from the desert are stronger, according to Antoine Koffi Kouassi, an agro-meteorology engineer at Ivory Coast's National Meteorological Service.
"Rains are likely to improve crop prospects in West Africa after dryness had caused concerns about production," Carsten Fritsch, an analyst at Commerzbank AG in Frankfurt, said today by e-mail. "Prices should pare some of their recent gains as a result."
The central-western Daloa region, Ivory Coast's biggest growing area, received some rain earlier this month, with the Daloa weather station registering rainfall of 6.1 millimeters from Feb. 11 to 20 and 15.8 millimeters from Feb. 1 to 10, according to data on Bloomberg. The region produces an average 300,000 metric tons of cocoa a year.
Southwestern Rains
The southwestern Soubre region in Ivory Coast, which produces about 300,000 tons annually, also received rainfall, with the town of San Pedro getting 20.6 millimeters between Feb. 11 to 20 and 15.1 millimeters a week earlier. The town of Sassandra received 9.5 millimeters of rain between Feb. 11 to 20 and 12.6 millimeters the previous week and Tabou got 24.3 millimeters from Feb. 11 to 20 and 37.3 millimeters the previous week, the data show.
In Ghana, the Western region, which accounts for about 55 percent of the country's output, also received rains from Feb. 11 to 20, data on Bloomberg show. The town of Sefwi Bekwai got 8.1 millimeters in the period, according to the data. A week earlier, Bogoso got as much as 51.9 millimeters.
Ivory Coast and Ghana accounted for 58 percent of global output last season, data from the London-based International Cocoa Organization show.

Aspartame was initially discovered back in 1965 as a drug to treat peptic ulcers.

Featured On Stylelist: Wearing Maternity When You're Not Pregnant
I'm no stranger to wearing oversized tent dresses and clothes that "appear to be maternity" Part of it is because I tend to gravitate anything that is the opposite of "body con" and the other is because bigger clothes are just more comfy, duh. lol. Anyhoo check out my photo over at Stylelist's "Why We Wear Maternity Clothes Even Though We're Not Pregnant". What do you think about wearing maternity even if you're not pregnant?
I've recently had a pretty significant amount of weight loss, so rethinking the whole "body con" thing. Stay tuned...
