6 strategies for staving off a winter coronary
There are things you and your loved one can do to shelter your heart against winters' dangerous effects:
Bundle up: Despite the findings of the University of New Mexico study, Thaik says it's still important to keep warm during the winter months because temperature does have an effect on the cardiovascular system. Cold weather can cause blood vessels to constrict, blood pressure to elevate and blood to become more prone to clotting, according to Neal Kleiman, M.D., cardiologist at the Methodist DeBakey Heart and Vascular Center in Houston.
Don't fall off the wagon: Bitter weather and savory comfort foods make for an unhealthy combination—especially during the holiday season. While it's okay to indulge a bit during celebrations, overall Thaik urges people to, "keep good habits going during the wintertime." This means sticking to a regular exercise routine and eating a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
Don't forgo meds: Just as maintaining a healthy diet and exercise plan is important in the winter, so too is sticking to any existing medication regimen you may have. Kleiman urges people not to "slack off on their medications," and other health maintenance habits.
Get happy: Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that strikes during the winter months. Shorter, cooler days spent inside can cause a person to become lethargic, hungry and uninterested. As with any type of depression, people suffering from SAD may be less likely to practice healthy behaviors, such as engaging in regular physical activity and eating a well-balanced diet. Thaik says it's important to avoid getting into this depressive cycle. Make sure you take time to do things that lift up your mood, such as going for a walk, or spending time with your family (if doing so doesn't stress you out).
Don't be an early bird: According to Thaik, one of the unrecognized side effects of fewer daylight hours in the winter is that people tend to try and start their days earlier. But, because blood pressure naturally spikes in the morning, these early birds could be putting themselves at greater risk for a heart attack. She suggests keeping early morning activities to a minimum during the winter months. "The heart likes to take time and warm up," she says, "take things gradually in the morning."
Get a flu shot: "Your immune system weakens in the winter," says Thaik, "getting the flu leads to increased inflammation and possibly pneumonia, both of which have a negative impact on your cardiovascular risk. Recent research has shown that getting a flu shot could reduce a person's risk for a major cardiac event (i.e. stroke, heart attack, heart failure, or cardiac death) by as much as 50 percent.

Red Hat 8.0 and nForce drivers
Has anyone had any success compiling the source tarball for the nforce chipset?
I am getting the following errors when I try and compile the tarball:
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
I get this error a couple of times during the compile, then it fails at the end with:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.5818
Looking farther up in the output, I find the following lines:
Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.5818
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD
+ cd nforce
+ export LANG
+ -n nforce
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.5818: line 23: -n: command not found
Has anyone else had trouble installing the sources for the nForce chipset under RedHat 8.0?
I think the question would be "has anyone managed to install the nforce drivers on RH 8.0 AT ALL?! :)
Seriously, I got errors similar to yours. I just have no clue. Could be Red Hat's newest kernel is screwy, could be that the nforce drivers don't like GCC 3.2. I think we will need to wait until NVIDIA releases new drivers for RH 8.0.
Yes i too got the same error.
Try going to the "still waiting nvidia..." thread. bwkaz has a bit of a solution.
The problem with nforce-1.0-0241 and RH 8.0 is simple. The RH 8 kernel is now compiled with gcc 3.2. Both "nvnet.o" and "nvaudio.o" that are included in the src downloads are compiled with gcc 2.95. You can compile and install without warning, however when you reboot the two new devices will still not be available. The kernels released with 8.0 have issue loading kernel modules compiled with gcc 2 (if you have tried to install already and run 'modprove nvnet' it will tell you this). The best answer right now unfortunatly is to wait till nVidia gets on the ball and releases 8.0 binray or source with updates .o's.
I had the exact same problem when trying to use the source rpm's, so instead, I used the tarballs. They worked the way they are supposed to. I have X up and running now, with only one minor problem with my mouse (it doesn't work). Get the tarball for the display driver from this link:
Then just install according to the instructions NVIDIA supplies.
Hope this helps!
Complete success
I am now having no problems with audio, usb, ethernet, or display drivers. At the very least the tarballs for the drivers work.
At first my audio didn't work, but when I opened the volume settings, it suddenly had audio. Perhaps that is the trick.

lose your head and I'll give you mine for a while.
Originally from a small town in Connecticut, College in upstate New York (upstate as in it snows everyday 9 months out of the year) and then onto S. Korea to teach English for a year before moving to the city. I've been here ever since. Things I love most about living here: concerts! (the best musicians come to ny), amazing food, diverse people and neighborhoods and everything else. I'd say I'm kind of competitive. I am in bowling, kickball and bocce leagues (but don't take myself too seriously in any of them). I love poker, darts, any kind of card game or game you can play in a bar. however, you must be ok with losing to date me:) Also like sports, and my favorite one to watch is college basketball (uconn) but I can really get into any sporting event. I also love to travel and have been fortunate to do lots of it - Korea, India, Vietnam, Prague, Turkey and Italy are my favorites but I'd love to go to Africa one day. I love to bike and want to do a Century or Tri at some point. Less seriously, I like biking to the beach (Ft. Tilden or Far Rockaway) or to a beer garden (I like good beer) or far away restaurant. I like trying new things.. Other things: I made a mean banana bread - but currently perfecting homemade articinal bread I'm good at filling the brita I like bourbon and am working on all whiskey (if you want to do a tasting?) I drink my coffee with half and half and I can't finish a whole cup without it getting cold I am a terrible speller I'll beat you at words with friends I'm a little bit thrifty but I like to treat myself (i also love aziz ansari) i think my music taste is better than yours, but if its not, ill like you more for it im very honest (sometimes too much so) I don't love movies (people hate me for this) About you: funny! i can't date you unless you can make me laugh - dry humor, banter, quirkiness, whatever. I am quite sarcastic and hope you are too. smart, honest and respectful. gentlemen like qualities are nice. i'd date a cowboy but they are hard to find in these parts:) must be social, active, enjoy the outdoors too.

56 year old woman | Sacramento, CA, USA | Seeking men 48-55 within 50 miles
Active within 24 hours
I'll always make you smile..;-)
About me! They say I should write about what makes me unique; hummm… well...hmm...I'm double jointed? (Lol! bet that caught your interest huh!) Seriously, what I think makes me somewhat unique is that I was born in Mexico, so I'm bilingual. At 2, we moved north, so I was raised in Sacramento for the most part. I was raised with old fashion (but not too old) traditional family values. I'm a no-drama type of girl; I don't smoke or do drugs and don't have any baggage. Yup! I said no baggage, that's pretty unique no! ;-) I believe in respect; loyalty, responsibility and consideration for others. But!!! In spite of those severe, morally good qualities, I'm genuinely a fun person and have lots of personality. I've been described as a very young 55 year old; gregarious, outgoing, spontaneous; with a bit of a spirit of adventure, warm and very fun. My family would say I'm level headed, assertive, loving and… probably smart. I would add that I'm confident, honest and trustworthy; affectionate, very playful and fun loving. I have a huge healthy sense of humor. I see humor even in the worst of situations or experiences, which at the time were maybe not so pleasant. I can be sexy or sensual; dress up in a dress and pumps for a nite out with my guy, or dress down in jeans and a ponytail, be playful and still be sexy. Now about You! I'm not complicated and I'm not looking for perfection, but… pretty damn near close!! (just kidding). Kidding aside, I want someone with integrity; who is mature, stable, kind and sincere; with a calm disposition (I think would be a good balance for me). Who can be playful and fun-loving; who likes affection and not too shy to return it. Of course, you have to have a sense of humor so you can appreciate mine. Who enjoys having interesting, serious conversations with his girl and who can and wants to talk things out when things get tuff--isn't that what couples do? Someone who enjoys cooking together; I'm no Rachel Rey, but after a glass of wine, you'll think you're in the kitchen with Giada (smile!). Definitely someone I respect, admire and returns the feeling. Above all, who can love me like crazy! What makes me happy? A picnic with my family. A campfire with friends. Sharing stories with my daughter. Road trips, Starbucks, a martini with a couple of olives...mmm... or a good IPA. What makes me smile? When my mom smiles. The blue ocean skyline just right over the hill. A lazy drive down a country road, and of course, when my guy smiles at me. Is that you? What makes my heart beat? That look! You know that look, that look you give a girl that makes her feel warm inside… and makes you HOT! (smile!) ok ok… truthfully… a soft kiss on the back of my neck..;-) very nice! What feeds my soul? A walk on the beach. Being in love, feeling loved (sounds sappy, but true). When I do something for my family or friends that makes them happy. What makes me feel peace? Waking up to a Sunday morning rain. A glowing late afternoon sunset. A full moon that lights up the nite. Prayer. What are my favorite things? I love to travel; do weekend trips on the fly. I head to the coast whenever possible; maybe stop at an offbeat cafe or grill on the way, that's always nice. I enjoy wine and beer tasting; works of art, museums; concerts, out of town venues are especially fun. I've been rafting on the Rogue River twice; that was wild and one of my best experiences. I did a 3 day bike ride once; 40 miles each day and would like to do it again. Trips to Tahoe and SF are special since I get to visit with family there. I enjoy cozy cafes; the local river hot spots are always fun and refreshing. Love movies and lots of buttery popcorn…yummm. So if I've caught your interest, say hi!

I used to have a cat named Pedro, but one day he packed his bags and checked out--that or the coyotes got him. I know that sounds awful, but in any event, his fate couldn't have been a good one.
Middle of the Road
Unbroken. Louis Zamperini's biography. A World War II story of survival. I normally don't read war stories, but this one caught my interest, so what the heck! I'm enjoying it and glad I picked it up.

Codex Holmiensis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Code of Jutland)
Codex Holmiensis is the manuscript of the Danish Code of Jutland, a civil code enacted under Valdemar II of Denmark. The code covered Funen, Jutland, and Schleswig. Prior to the adoption of the Jutlandic, Zealandic and the Scanian laws, there had been no uniformity of laws throughout settlements in Denmark. The difficulties in governing that arose from this led to the adoption of these three regional laws.[1] The king did not sign it in Jutland, but rather at the royal castle at Vordingborg in early 1241.
|With law shall the country be built and if all men were content with what is theirs and let others enjoy the same right, there would be no need for a law. But no law is as good as the truth, but if one wonders what the truth is, then shall the law show the truth. If the land had no law, then he would have the most who could grab the most by force.
|The law must be honest, just, reasonable and according to the ways of the people. It must meet their needs and speak plainly, so that all men may know and understand, what the law is. It is not to be made in any man's favor, but for the needs of all them who live in the land. No man shall judge contrary to the law, which the king has given and the country chosen. [...] neither shall he [the king] take it back without the will of the people.
The Code was succeeded by Christian V's Danish Code of 1683; however in certain parts of Schleswig parts of the Code were used until the arrival of Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch in 1900.

Originally written on Bloguin Best | Last updated 4/3/13
After months of constant rumors and speculation, Roberto Luongo remains a member of the Vancouver Canucks after the trade deadline. The news that Luongo will remain with the club until at least the summer even inspired a rare "I haven't been traded" press conference from the goaltender shortly after the deadline passed. Why wasn't Luongo traded? The answer likely lies in the fact he still has nine years left on his bloated 12-year, $64 million contract - a contract that Luongo personally describes as one that "sucks." In a press conference after the deadline passed, Luongo told reporters that, "My contract sucks." He went on to state that he would "scrap it down" if he could. How strange is it to see a player hold a conference discussing the fact he wasn't traded. Bizarre. Luongo might not like his large contract because it has prevented him from finding a new team, but don't think for a second that he minds being paid $64 million across 12 years.

August 16, 2013
|Related: Boogarins, Other Music
Fernando Almeida and Benke Ferraz met in high school in the central Brazilian city of Goiânia, far from the thriving cultural metropolises of São Paulo and Rio, yet nevertheless in the shadow of the icons of their homeland's great musical heritage -- not bossa nova and samba, however, but psychedelic pop. Still in their late teens, the music they make together, recorded on borrowed gear and with self-taught technology in their parents' basements, shares the spirit and soul of Tropicalismo, but it has also blossomed in the light of the current international DIY underground. Almeida is the poet and singer, Ferraz is the multi-instrumentalist and gear-head, and together, as Boogarins, they write songs that reach beyond their years and any restrictions of geography or genre: timeless pop untethered from categorizations.
The songs that are collected on As Plantas Que Curam (translated: Plants That Heal) were recorded mostly as a duo, before they ever considered playing live, before they found a rhythm section or even a name -- the Bogarim the band was named for is a jasmine flower the ancients say "smells like pure love" -- and the album speaks with an intimacy and off-kilter fragility that reflects those humble origins. Yet from the exotic psychedelia of "Erre," in which Ferraz's fuzz guitar spirals around Almeida's yearning melodies, to the jangling melancholy of "Doce," there is a sophistication and depth in the songwriting and playing here that shows a rare talent, each track filled with beauty and freewheeling emotion. A snapshot of Boogarins' youthful ambition and dreams, As Plantas Que Curam is a love letter from the green fields of Goiânia to all of us.
As Plantas Que Curam will be released Oct. 1, 2013 on on vinyl, CD, and mp3 by Other Music Recording Co. and on cassette through Burger Records.

41 year old woman | Dallas, TX, USA | Seeking men 38-55 within 50 miles
Simply Classy
I'm a HUMBLED and down to earth WOMAN who enjoys LIFE and loves to have a good time. When and if you get to know me, you'll get 100% and Nothing Less. I am a LADY (always) but I can be one of the fellas at the same time especially with my GREAT sense of humor. When you mix all of that with some good conversation, SPIRITUAL Love for MY FATHER, and pure 'REALNESS', you'll discover your "ROCKIN with the BEST". I'm looking for someone who has love for themselves and has the ability to show me love as well. I am keen to those who are genuine and open and will come at me with meaningful conversation. In other words NO B/S!!!! Not looking for a serious relationship at this time, but it never hurts to make or have new friends. However, if the right one comes along (you'll know who you are) then........MAYBE!! I like to read various types of books, writing music and poetry. Going to movies and plays are great, however quiet time indoors is always better. Will take in a good basket or football game..(not a Cowboys fan) but I do watch both on T.V. (I will get a little rowdy on a bad call). I'm a HUGE fan of the kitchen (yes I can and LOVE to cook) but a restaurant here and there is cool when I wanna get out. Basically, I can adapt in any kind of environment and have a good time doing so. I am more than just a pretty face. I have book smarts as well. Currently I am in school completing my final semester obtaining my BS in Business Administration and Human Resource Management. Although I am somewhat studious, I have street smarts as well ( so I am in no way dumb even with blonde hair...lol). I stay current on world events, fashion trends, and politics. To me a good debate is always good and makes for great conversation.

|Printable auction results for all items in the 2009 January Signature Art of the American West & Texas Auction.
Portrait of Vivian E. Dunton (the artist's daughter), circa 1920
Oil on artist's board
10 x 8 inches (25.4 x 20.3 cm)
Signed lower right: W. Herbert Dunton
Acquired from the artist by Ivan Hartley Dunton (label verso);
Thence by descent to Carol Ann Dunton Raymond (label verso).
Condition Report*:Overall very good condition.
Dunton, William Herbert:William Herbert "Buck" Dunton was born in Maine in 1878. Largely self-taught as a child, Dunton sold his first illustrative work to a newspaper at the young age of sixteen. It was at that time that he quit school to pursue a career as an illustrator and later enrolled in classes at the Cowles Art School in Boston and the Art Students League in New York. Following his education, Dunton became a well-respected and successful illustrator in New York but in 1896 found his true calling when he traveled to Montana. It was on that trip that he fell deeply in love with the nostalgia of the Old West, and that would remain his subject of choice for the remainder of his life. During this time in Dunton's career, he had become one of the best known American illustrators working with such publications as Harper's Weekly, Cosmopolitan, Woman's Home Companion, and Zane. He was most notably recognized for his lively western outdoor scenes which often depicted dramatic episodes such as galloping cowboys avoiding a cloudburst, or a cowboy and his horse taking a dramatic spill. Despite his successful illustration career, Dunton grew tired of the pressures and demands of New York and moved to Taos in 1912 where he became one of the founding members of the Taos Society of Artist. Once in New Mexico, he accepted very few illustration commissions and focused more on preserving the life of the Old West through his art.

Lugansk city centre: Lugansk Accommodation
I visited Lugansk from 31/12/2013 - 09/01/2014.
I stayed in an apartment on sovetskaya street, which is self catering.
Apartment for 8 night, was no more than £175, hotel would have cost more.
Eating out in Lugansk is very affordable, so there are no problems there.
Transport costs are reasonable, if you use taxi.
If you travel by bus, its even cheaper.
The entrance to apartments, was secured my magnetic lock, which could only be open by keypad or coded magnetic key fob.
the view was amazing, you could see the whole city.
On new years day, the view of the fireworks was better than i had seen before.

Gostinny Dvor: Great hotel with excellent service
This hotel combines the best of a five star hotel with a bed and breakfast. Take time to get to know the staff. They are great. I made some solid friendships with them. They are very helpful.
The rooms are of large size, even the smallest rooms. The bathrooms are very nice. The more expensive rooms are worth the indulgence. It is very clean and safe.
It is a very nice hotel. I highly recommend it.
Prices range from about $80USD to $220USD.
It is not a far walk from market area and down town squares. The museum is close by as is the enternal flame.

Private Accomadation: If you are caught in the middle, ask a taxi driver
When you arrive Lugansk in Russian Christmas early in January, you are lost...
Everything closed...
Offices renting out flats as well.
As we know..., Lugansk has no tourist information or service.
Only if you go for a dating trip your agency can help you, but not sure in the New Year holyday, offend from December 29th and then 2 weeks.
I had made a reservation on hotel, but the people could not find it...
I gave Lugansk 12 hours before I would go to Kiev by train.
Asking a taxi drive, he contact his daughter, and she had a friend willing to rent out a flat.
Private. Paid 15 USD per day. Invited to parties too and even to an American church, which I refused.
Doing this way, this lady got all the money and you get an itroduction to many kind of lives in Lugansk.
Maybe not for everyone, you you need to find an honest driver...
But I reconmend it to all of you, and Lugansk to get a tourist agency or two or three.
You get in touch with ordinary people, flat of high standard as well.
Bath, cable with BBC World, central in Sovietskaya.
And introduced to 3 parties during one week.
A lot of nice people.

On my most recent stay in Lugansk, March 2005, I met with Victor, aka HunterV, he was able to find me an very affordable apartment, $20.00 per day. Plus $20.00 deposit for the phone. (refundable) on the East End. It was 2 rooms, kitchen and bath. Front entry. Just a block from 2 grocery stores, a couple of clubs. A couple of "casinos." One of the casinos I used often as my local "currency exchange." Very conveinent and hospitable area. The kitchen was somewhat small and needed a few things, but overall an excellant value. It certainitly beats the apartment I rented last summer on my first visit there. From a internet service at 5x the cost. So diffinately shop around for prices, they are out there.

Driver whose car killed Muriel was drunk, police say
It's second time Texas A&M-CC athletes harmed by intoxicated drivers in 2005
A driver who slammed his pickup truck head-on into a car driven by Texas A&M-Corpus Christi point guard Jeff Muriel had a blood-alcohol level that was nearly triple the legal limit, according to Fort Worth police department officials.
Toxicology reports revealed Michael Miles of Bedford had a blood-alcohol level of .22 compared to the legal limit of .08, said Sgt. Don Hanlon of the traffic investigation unit. Miles was driving the wrong way on East Loop 820 in Forth Worth Sunday morning, when his 1995 Ford pickup crashed into a car driven by Muriel.
Muriel, 19, and three of his passengers - all 18 or younger - perished. Miles, 47, also died from injuries sustained in the crash.
The accident is the second this year in which drunk drivers have harmed A&M-Corpus Christi athletes. In March, five members of the Islanders track team and an assistant coach sustained injuries when a truck, driving the wrong way on Interstate 37, hit their van.
It's also the second tragedy to befall the A&M-Corpus Christi men's basketball team in little more than two years. In March of 2003, former player Lee Denmon was shot and killed in his parents' driveway in a case of mistaken identity.
Muriel was driving his friends Donald Cain, 18, Charles Tate Jr., 18, and Carl Field, 14 after getting off work from the DFW Airport earlier in the day.
At least five minutes before impact, Miles was heading the wrong way down the loop, though Hanlon did not yet know how Miles was going in the wrong direction. Hanlon said one car barely avoided a head-on collision approximately four miles before Miles' truck crashed into Muriel's car.
Heading southbound on the other side of the loop, Hanlon said, witnesses saw a vehicle flashing its lights in an effort to warn those on the northbound side that a truck was barreling down the loop on the wrong side of the road.
At 1:37 a.m., Miles' truck collided with Muriel's 1991 Chevy Caprice. Muriel and Cain, the front-seat passenger, were killed instantly, Hanlon said.
Field was taken by Careflight to John Peter Smith Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 3:33 a.m. Tate was rushed by ambulance to Harris Methodist Hospital in downtown Fort Worth where he died at 10:55 a.m.
Miles was transported by ambulance to John Peter Smith Hospital and died at 6:50 a.m.
Hanlon said the speed of the vehicles has not yet been determined, except that both were travelling at "highway speeds."

"I am ecstatic about the whole transaction of my wedding invitation and RSVP card. Once I submitted my customized text, someone actually CARED . . . edited it for perfection. Getting married in 2015 is easier (and somewhat under more of my control) than it was in 1994. :-)"
"It was very easy to design and my proof came quickly to my email for me to confirm. However I was shorted about 3 cards per item i ordered. When i spoke to the customer service via online chat they assured me they would resend me ANOTHER BOX of the invitations i ordered. Needless to say it was an amazing experience and I didn't have to freak out about my shorted cards because i would soon have more than enough to send out. The new box arrived on the date the lady told me they would and they're exactly the same and i was able to complete the amount i needed. THANK YOU WEDDING PAPER DIVAS!"
"I am so pleased with my experience with Wedding Paper Divas. This invite was on high-quality paper. The gold foil is just the right touch of shine that I was looking for. We ordered in a custom color that was exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend!!!"
"love these invites. they were the perfect mix of modern and traditional that we were after. the colours are also subtle and chic."
"These perfectly fit the update we were looking for on the traditional black and white invitation. Wedding Paper Divas did a great job editing the wording to reflect my husband's late parents, and customizing the back. We tied them together with Tartan plaid ribbons to add a little extra holiday pop for our December wedding. We received so many compliments and couldn't have been happier!"

The cryptid journal
I spend about 4 hours a day canoodling with my art when I don't have proper work that needs doing. I know I should spend longer, but I hate the way my stuff looks so much I tend to avoid doing art. Anyway, I'm trying to break out of that habit and accept my work for what it is, good or bad, and pull longer hours.
Hopefully I can get better enough to actually be able to stand my art, so I can make more art and get around to completing that comic project I always put on the back burner.
My current working goal: 10 hours

Most stars leave after Strictly Come Dancing a couple of stone lighter thanks to the punishing rehearsal schedule.
But it seems that Abbey Clancy is the exception to the rule as she has actually PUT ON weight since joining the BBC show, according to Tess Daly.
The presenter exclusively told us that the model is the only contestant in Strictly history to be piling on the pounds instead of losing them.
[ Strictly's Bruno Tonioli falls off his chair while laughing ]
[ Tess Daly talks 8 Out Of 10 Cats and Disney princesses ]
She said: ''Funnily enough, the gorgeous Abbey Clancy is possibly the only star we have EVER had take part who has actually put weight ON!''
And it seems that Abbey has become so muscly that her usual uniform of skinny jeans and blazer isn't working anymore.
Tess added: ''She told me that all the training has made her lovely long legs a LOT more muscular – even to the point where she can't get into her usual skinny jeans!''
Although the star looks as svelte as ever to us, it seems that the daily rehearsals have been building up her muscles at lightening quick speed.
The WAG, who has impressed the judges every week with her prowess on the dancefloor, recently admitted that she found it a struggle to put on weight and that her skinny frame wasn't down to working out.
She told us: ''It's just down to working hard and having a heavy child. That's good for the upper body strength.
''I think just having a two-day rehearsal is fun and you want to do it but you don't think of it as exercise.''
You definitely need to eat more and look after yourself and have a lot of sleep if you can, because it is hard."
Fellow contestant Julian McDonald, 42, also leapt to Abbey's defence, highlighting her eating habits.
He said: "She eats like a horse by the way. I was watching her eating her lunch and I was like 'can you really eat all that?'' She said 'I can't put on weight.'"
Backing up Julian's claims, Abbey added: "I've been trying desperately to do it."
We bet she's over-the-moon right about now, then!

Hewitt's Lightning Lit guides use full-length novels, autobiographies, plays,
essays, short stories, and poems to teach deep reading and composition skills. Unlike some literature programs
that take a scatter-shot approach (where none of the literature seems connected) or that try to include too much
into one book, Lightning Literature guides focus on a few classics in depth, in a systematic manner.
Each high-school guide is a one-semester course for most students. Students who struggle with
reading and writing may take up to a year to finish a guide. Additional reading recommendations are given
for students who excel in language arts. All students will be exposed to exciting new authors and revisit
old favorites with new eyes. Each guide includes biographies of the authors; comprehension questions; lessons
on the readings; writing exercises; any short stories, essays, or poems used for lessons; additonal reading
suggestions; and discussion questions.
The following high-school courses are available. They can be purchased as packs (which
include all the required books) or the guides can be puchased alone. Samples are included on individual product pages.
I used the Lightning Lit American Literature this year and absolutely love it. I have used all types of
literature programs and this one is by far the best.—Renita Herbst
[My daughter] in 11th grade has always been homeschooled and we have run the gamut of approaches to literature. . .
Lightning Literature has been her (and my) absolute favorite. We hired the head of the English department of our local
high school to look over her papers, and he loves the assignments she is doing in Lightning Literature so much that he
is actually planning to use some in his own classes. [My daughter] likes it because the questions don't slow down
the reading too much, the format is geared toward independent study, the instructions are clear, and the writing
assignments are varied. She also likes studying complete works as opposed to using an anthology of excerpts.
I also like that it covers literary terms. —Luann Geyman
I looked long and hard at many different literature programs and Lightning Literature came out on top every time.
I like that I had the option to choose to do the semester course over a year for our son's freshman English.
He simply is not ready to tackle both semesters. No other program offered this option. There were many watered
down courses that were "Basic English", however, we didn't want that for our son. We want to challenge him to
think and to explore literature. —Lisa Young
Initially Maria was wondering if she could "hack" a college course. . . . We said go for it. The foremost
feedback has been how much she appreciates your courses (Lightning Literature) because she feels the assignments
are much more concise, well directed and interesting. She also feels that your critiques have been very helpful
and more than adequately prepared her for English 101. The school was very surprised she placement tested so
well. —Barbara Gomez

Visnovsky's agent stands by decision to keep him out of Olympics
Feb 9, 2014, 10:00 PM EDT
When New York Islanders GM Garth Snow made the decision not to let defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky play in the Olympics despite the fact that he returned from a concussion on Jan. 27, it raised some eyebrows.
After all, Visnovsky is 37 years old and was poised to represent Slovakia for a fifth and likely last time. On top of that his national team, already battered by injuries, needed him. Slovakian Olympic GM Otto Sykora felt strongly enough about it to publicly question Snow's stance and then reached out to the Islanders general manager.
Sykora later accepted the decision and added that Visnovsky didn't feel up to taking part in the international tournament.
Visnovsky's agent, Neil Sheehy, took to Twitter to further dispelled any notion that there might be hard feelings between the Islanders and his client:
As disappointing as it is for Lubo Visnovsky to not play in the Olympics for Slovakia, the right decision was made for his longterm health.
— NEIL SHEEHY (@ICEHockeyAgent) February 10, 2014
Although the Islanders don't have a realistic shot at making the playoffs at this point, Visnovsky will try to end the season on a high note to set up his and the team's comeback bid in 2014-15.
- bcisleman - Feb 9, 2014 at 10:11 PM
This is typical of Snow. He stands up for his guys. He was more than happy for others to rip him and keep the heat of Lubo. Only when the Slovak GM pressed the issue was the truth brought out. No GM works harder to maintain good relations with his players.
- davebabychreturns - Feb 10, 2014 at 1:19 PM
I will say that, Garth Snow gets a lot of heat from a lot of sources (and when you're working for a franchise like the Islanders – I don't mean offense by that, sorry – some of it's going to stick), but he seems like a classy guy all in all who appears to be willing to stick to his guns both with his players and with regards to making some big gambles when he feels the time is right.
I don't necessarily agree with some of the things he does but you've got to respect the guy.
- davebabychreturns - Feb 10, 2014 at 1:21 PM
(Although I still find it weird that he is healthy enough for NHL games but not healthy enough for the Olympics. I feel he shouldn't have been playing anywhere if his concussion is a concern.)
- shamu1the1whale - Feb 10, 2014 at 12:56 AM
It's too bad that he isn't going. Given that he just scored a goal and an assist at this past Saturday's game against the Avs, doesn't that mean he's well enough to play in Sochi?
- gratescott - Feb 10, 2014 at 9:51 AM
There's always the chance that they're listening to offers for Lubo and don't want to risk further injury before the trade deadline. Once next year rolls around he has a "No Movement Clause" that kicks in.

The Neurologic & Orthopedic Hospital of Chicago's Michael Vender, M.D., offers tips to prevent injuries from snow blowers. The pamphlet is available online as a downloadable pdf and also via mail with an attachable sticker.
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) December 20, 2008 -- As more people use snow blowers to shovel out their driveways this winter, the Neurologic & Orthopedic Hospital of Chicago (NOHC) warns them of the dangers associated with not properly using the machines. The hospital is introducing a new pamphlet, which includes a warning sticker that can be affixed to the snow blower machine, on preventing and treating snow blower injuries.
Every year hundreds of people suffer maiming or amputations of their fingers or hands from the improper handling of snow blowers. Usually the victims are men, and the injury is on their dominant hand and involves amputation, fracture or dislocation of fingers.
"I have seen an increasing number of hand injuries from snow blowers," says Michael Vender, M.D., a board-certified orthopedic hand surgeon who is highly skilled in performing the most advanced hand, wrist and elbow surgery. "That's why I believe in educating individuals on the dangers in hopes of keeping them injury-free. "
Here are some of Dr. Vender's tips:

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil - One month ago, 20-year-old beauty queen Mariana Bridi was living the dream of many young Brazilian women, trading her striking good looks for a modeling career that promised to lift her family out of poverty.Then she contracted a seemingly ordinary urinary tract infection. The bacteria spread quickly and inexorably through her body, proving to be extremely drug resistant. In a desperate bid to save her life, doctors amputated her hands and feet. But by Saturday she was dead. 'God is comforting our hearts because he wanted her to be with him now,' her father Agnaldo Costa told reporters outside the hospital where his daughter died. 'I can't accept that my daughter left us so soon.' Bridi's Web site says she began modeling at age 14 with the hope of giving 'a dignified life to her parents.' Her father is a taxi driver and her mother a house cleaner. By the age of 18, she was well on her way: In 2007 and 2008, she was a finalist in the Brazilian stage of the Miss World pageant. Her Web site said next month she was to participate in the second stage of a modeling competition held in Sao Paulo by Dilson Stein, the Brazilian model scout who discovered Gisele Bundchen. Last year, she took fourth in the Face of the Universe competition in South Africa and she had won bikini competitions across the globe. The Miss World Brazil organization said she was an example of someone 'who knew how to intensely live her life.' Half a dozen memorial groups on Facebook had already sprung up just hours after her death. On Bridi's own page on Orkut - the most popular Web social networking site in Brazil - dozens of memorial messages were left. The course of her illness was swift. In late December, she fell ill and doctors in her native state of Espirito Santo - northeast of Rio de Janeiro - initially diagnosed as having kidney stones. She returned to a hospital on Jan. 3 in septic shock - life-threatening low blood pressure - from the infection that would force doctors to amputate first her feet, then her hands. Doctors said there was little they could do but pump drugs into her and hope for the best. It was a nightmare scenario for anyone with an infection: Her body did not react to the latest and most potent drugs while the bacteria in her veins spread from head to toe. In Bridi's case, the culprit was the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is known to be drug resistant. According to the January 2008 book 'Pseudomonas: Genomics and Molecular Biology,' edited by Pierre Cornelis, a researcher at the Flanders Institute for Biotechnology in Brussels, the bacteria has the 'worrisome characteristic' of 'low antibiotic susceptibility.' It also easily mutates to develop resistance to new drugs. Death from infections caused by the bacteria are relatively rare, but not unheard of: In late 2006, an outbreak of the bacteria at White Memorial Medical Center in Los Angeles sickened five infants - leading to the deaths of two of them. The bacteria causes about 10 percent of the roughly 2 million hospital-acquired infections each year in the U.S., according to health officials. A short statement from the Espirito Santo State Health Secretariat announced her death on Saturday 'despite all the commitment of the hospital team.'
