The Aktion Club of the Scioto County Board of Developmental Disabilities (Board of DD) received its charter from the Kiwanis Club of Portsmouth this week.
The goal of the Acktion Club is to perform community service projects.
According to ohioaktion.org, "Aktion Club is a community-service group for adult citizens who live with a disability. Aktion Clubs are chartered through the sponsorship of a local Kiwanis Club and community agency. Agency and Kiwanis advisors work together with club members to make the club a success."
According to KC Chatfield advisor of the club, the group has been working on several projects throughout the community including helping out at the Salvation Army, in the city of Portsmouth, in the village of New Boston among other places.
"We got this project up and running in April. As of Friday (Aug. 24) we have completed 848.25 hours of community service," Chatfield said.
Included in the celebration was in installation Aktion Club officers and members by Jenny Lavender, President of the Portsmouth Kiwanis Club.
"This is the very first Aktion Club that the Portsmouth club has done," Lavender said. "In such a short amount of time you all (members of the Aktion Club) have warmed my heart. When I went to the Salvation Army where you guys are helping to serve food, you make me feel like I am the most important person in the world. I have never seen such a group of people such as yourself. You give so much of yourself and have already given so much to this community."
The Aktion Club officers include, President Adrian Seymour, Vice President is Tony Mills, Secretary Brandi Pennington and Treasurer Jessica Riggs.
"We are looking to do things that will benefit the community. We are going to try to be out on the road four or five days a week doing Community Service," Chatfield said.
Chatfield has integrated a music outreach into the clubs activities.
"Last year I had started going to area nursing homes on a monthly basis, playing music on a weekday afternoon for a couple of hours. After a while I could not go because my work schedule had changed. I was trying to figure it out where I could go on a Sunday afternoon every once in a while. Our director Kelly Hunter heard about it and told me we would create something where I would go not just to one nursing home but to all the nursing homes that will have me." Chatfield said. "At first it was just me there playing music, now we've expanded it to include our consumers. We have a music room here and they (consumers) work on stuff for a talent show that's held two or three times a year. I take them along and they perform their talents. Their talents range from singing along with the song, playing air guitar one girl plays guitar and sings. Some go just to hang out and enjoy the music with the residents of the nursing home. This is a win for our people and the people of the nursing homes."
Chatfield said he and members of the Aktion Club are now traveling to 14 different places as apart of their music outreach.
He said there are a number of upcoming projects for the team.
"Our growth plans are big. Eventually we would like to have two different crews working at the same time. We are only able to do this with the support of the administration, the support of the community and the support of the Aktion club members and officers," Chatfield said. "These guys (members of the Aktion club) have such big hearts and they just want a chance to show it."
He said the goal of the Aktion Club for 2013 will be 2,000 hours of community service.
"We want to be a force for good in the community. We have people here who will do good in the community and we want to be a force for good," Chatfield said.

and the evolution continues...
When AVENTAGE was introduced in 2010, this new top rated AV receiver series represented a dramatic, inspired leap forward with best in class audio/video component design. AVENTAGE brought studio grade sound and sophisticated video enhancements to your home with unparalleled attention to detail in design, engineering and fabrication. Every electrical path, every part, every piece, was rethought and redesigned if necessary to achieve total performance excellence throughout the series. Materials were tested thoroughly and the finest were selected to maximize performance. Details that at first glance would not seem to affect the quality of sight, sound and control were brought together in AVENTAGE components and, in the end, produced a work of visual and acoustic art.
Double Bottom Construction
Additional bottom cover added for additional support and to improve sound performance at higher volume levels and also support the power transformer and heat sinks
Optimized Power Amplifier Layout
One of the many design details that combine to create a superior receiver. The interior of the unit has been precisely planned, circuit-routed and built so that the left and right channels are physically and electrically isolated, maximizing channel separation and greatly improving signal to noise ratio to achieve a wide, open sound stage.
Specially designed 5th Foot
The A.R.T. (Anti-Resonance Technology) Wedge fifth foot is in the center of the unit. It dampens vibrations from the power transformer, power transistors and heat sinks, as well as vibrations that might be caused by the sound from the speakers. The A.R.T. Wedge fifth foot helps ensure that vibrations do not affect the sound quality.
Ultra Low Jitter Circuitry
Ultra Low Jitter PLL circuitry helps optimize sound imaging by reducing jitter from digital sources, including HDMI, using a more precise timing control.
SEE ALL AVENTAGE MODELS> Features and technologies vary by model, consult your Yamaha dealer for details
Hybrid power supply
Independent power supplies for the digital and analog circuit, resulting in less power consumption in the standby mode and a more efficient power transformer.
H-Shaped Cross-Member Frame
The interior of the receiver is reinforced with cross-members in an "H" shape to provide an extremely rigid and stable frame. This reduces chassis vibration to virtually zero even during high volume output maintaining the highest audio quality.
High quality DACs
Every part in an AV receiver can affect the sound quality. For the AVENTAGE models, extra time was spent to find and develop optimized parts, which were then extensively tested in prototype units. This testing process allowed our sound technicians to effectively tune the receiver's sound to achieve the highest possible performance.
Zip Ties To Ground
Minimizes magnetic interference as well as reduces unwanted radio frequency interference.
SEE ALL AVENTAGE MODELS> Features and technologies vary by model, consult your Yamaha dealer for details
Yamaha Built
Our receivers are too important to outsource; we design, manufacture and assemble them in Yamaha-owned facilities. The AVENTAGE series comes with a 50% longer warranty period (three year warranty).
Custom Designed Parts
Yamaha's R&D team took a granular look at every design aspect, including circuitry, construction, components, volume and sound reproduction qualities—even eco-friendly considerations for power consumption.
High Grade Terminals
High quality, heavier grade to help reduce vibration. Wide spacing was achieved for easier cable connections of speaker wires.
Best In Class Processors
Yamaha original Cinema DSP processors. Dolby Digital TrueHD. DTS-HD Master Audio. HQV Vida video processor.
Enhanced Virtual Presence
CINEMA DSP 3D provides a wide, high and dense sound field. HD Audio format decoding lets you enjoy HD Audio sources. Virtual Presence Speakers deliver 3D sound without the use of actual front presence speakers. CINEMA DSP HD3 (RX-A3010, RX-A3000) takes the surround sound experience to new heights by using four CINEMA DSP engines with advanced 3D processing and two front presence channels in a 9.2-channel configuration, giving the sound field an enhanced vertical dimension for more realistic and exciting movie sound.
Yamaha Automated Calibration
Yamaha Parametric Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) is a simple, automatic way to optimize your speakers performance for your room. Yamaha's YPAO system uses a small microphone and sophisticated equalization to automatically set the best sound for any room, no matter where the speakers are placed.

appsworld - Turn Your Tablet into a Corporate Content Workhorse
A secure, reliable and flexible solution for working with corporate content has, until recently, been hard to find. Users bring their own devices into the workplace, and with them consumer file sharing services. These approaches aren't right for the enterprise--they can pose a number of challenges to the IT department responsible for managing the organization's content.
As companies roll out mobile devices to their workforce, questions arise: How do we share corporate content with our mobile workforce in a secure, scalable way? How do we make sure that critical content, like contracts, sales collateral, and repair instructions get in the right hands at the right time? How do we ensure that users of mobile devices aren't just consumers of content, but productive participants in our business processes?
This talks answers these questions. You'll learn how Alfresco turns your iPad, iPhone or Android device into a corporate content workhorse with Alfresco's native apps. You'll also learn how to get started building your own custom apps based on the Alfresco Mobile open source codebase and the Alfresco iOS and Android SDKs.
With Jeff Potts, Alfresco's Chief Community Officer. Attend his talk on Friday February 8 from 12:00 - 12:30.
Alfresco is the proud sponsor of the Enterprise Apps track at appsworld North America 2013. Come and meet some of the team on stand number 154.

I knew something wrong was afoot when my wife reported that a 90-year-old woman had to be turned away from voting early at our local polling place. Her crime: She didn't have a driver's license. Why would she? She wasn't able to drive anymore.
As the embarrassed election judge fumbled for a solution as the woman sobbed — this was the first election she missed in her life (and might be her last) — it struck me at how regressive this whole idea of voter policing has become.
Believe me, I know plenty about voting fraud. I'm from Chicago, where countless voters were registered in graveyards and perhaps aided in the election of John F. Kennedy in 1960 thanks to Richard J. Daley's political machine. He managed to put a lot of zombies in polling places — even more than were in political office at the time.
But large-scale voter fraud is virtually non-existent today. Yet the efforts to root it out recall the horrid Jim Crow era. The former "party of Lincoln" has been most active in this fraudulent crusade. It's mostly prevented people of color and older folks from voting. Could it be that they'd largely vote for Democrats?
Shades of 2000 and 2004 when somehow voting machines weren't delivered to African-American precincts in Ohio and Florida or unforeseen glitches prevented their ballots from counting. It's not that the disenfranchised voters weren't properly registered — by and large they were. But a systematic campaign to keep them from voting was in place. It's been documented by several news organizations, most notably the Miami Herald.
Let's say that for the sake of argument that GOP activists are rightly concerned about the "wrong" people somehow getting access to a ballot. Is this a prevalent activity that needs to be stopped at all costs?
One of the best studies on the subject was conducted by Justin Levitt of the New York University Law School. Its conclusion is simple: allegations of widespread voter fraud are greatly exaggerated.
"Many of the claims of voter fraud amount to a great deal of smoke without much fire…Most allegations of fraud turn out to be baseless—and that of the few allegations remaining, most reveal election irregularities and other forms of election misconduct, rather than fraud by individual voters. The type of individual voter fraud supposedly targeted by recent legislative efforts—especially efforts to require certain forms of voter ID—simply does not exist."
The creation and propagation of the voter fraud myth, which has gained huge currency in the GOP over the past decade, has been championed by Hans von Spakovsky, a lawyer who is also a fellow at the conservative Heritage Foundation. He was recently profiled by Jane Mayer in a New Yorker piece. His work has spawned numerous new rules in states like Florida and Ohio that not only promote strict voter ID laws, but end up restricting voting in minority-dominated areas. Many of these restrictions are likely violations of the Voting Rights Act, a landmark law that Lyndon Johnson signed in 1965 to end the Jim Crow era, well, until democracy foes like Spakovsky came on the scene.
If anything, voting should be as simple as going to an ATM. You can do it any time and at virtually any place. You should be do it through the mail, email or by texting. If you can buy a product from amazon.com with one click, you certainly should be able to vote with 21st-century ease.
Not only can voting be made easier, security concerns are easily addressed. If trillions of dollars can be sent around the world every day with no one stealing it, there are plenty of encryption solutions available to prevent voter fraud, which isn't a problem anyway. Here are some starters for the post-election discussion:
* Make voter registration seamless. It would be tied into your Social Security number, although no one would have to know that. On your 18th birthday, you're registered automatically, no matter where you are. A central database would have this information.
* Although there have been great strides in absentee and early voting, there shouldn't be just one election day. The world's largest democracy — India — takes weeks to vote. Spread it out and shorten the election season while you're at it.
* You can tie in voter identification to any number of biometrics such as fingerprints or retinal scans. While that may prove too expensive to implement now, it's something to consider when the technology gets cheaper. DNA sample chips, anyone?
* Make voting mandatory. Once you have universal registration, do what the Aussies do and require people to vote. I know that sounds un-American, but it will get more people into the polling place and more of the electorate involved.
* Don't link voting to polling places. People are mobile. They should be able to vote anywhere — as long as their voting information is in a master database that can be accessed by voting officials. Why do we have to require that older, disabled or immobile people be wheeled into a polling place? Why can't they vote at home?
Most importantly, big money needs to be removed from the political campaign process. A constitutional amendment banning all PAC, union and corporate money needs to be in place. Citizens United, which has spawned more than $2 billion in spending during this election cycle, has to go.
How would elections be financed? Make the airwaves free. Most people forget that the electro-magnetic spectrum is owned by everyone. Even the Internet is a public commons developed by public money.
And for God's sake, can we please shorten the political season? Six months is fine; three months is even better.
Even as the election season comes to a close, our mission in a democracy is clear. If we want to keep it, we need to protect the rights of all of our citizens. That means fair enforcement of voting rights, universal access to ballots (electronic or paper) and getting the greatest number of people involved in the process without the corruption of big-monied interests.
"Out of the many, one" is our motto (e pluribus unum). It still makes sense, but many people still have to rise up and defend it.

Everyone has had really great advice!
I don't really have anything wise to add, just wanted to pass along my love and best wishes as you go about getting help for the anxiety, Bob.
I can second that Ron's blog is amazing and absolutely worth the read.
I'm waiting for a quiet moment when I can read through that blog.
Today's doctor appointment went well, they did do a blood test so they can see if there's a thyroid disorder. If not, I may go the medical route, at least try it.
Hey feef! (And everyone else!)
I have anxiety issues in very specific situations, and my doc prescribes Buspar. I take it just when I'm going to be in these situations, and it works like a charm! I call it my "I'm not in charge" pill, and I take it when I have to take a plane trip, or give testimony in court, or (you'd think this would be easy to avoid, but I run a homeschool group) when I have to go in a mineshaft. <Shudder, that's where I had my actual panic attack, Oh Lordy.>
If you don't have general anxiety, it may be worth it just to have something you take when you know you're likely to have a problem. The Buspar doesn't make me feel loopy or anything, I just feel calm when I wouldn't otherwise.
But, if you don't know when it might come up, or it's pretty often, there are meds that are more appropriate. I know a lot of folks on these and they aren't zombied out or anything. In fact, I wouldn't know they were on them if they didn't share the information.
I hope you find something that works. Until I had a panic attack, I didn't have any understanding how bad they were. I mean, people describe them and you get a sense of what they must be like, but I honestly wasn't sure I was going to live. (((((feef)))))
Thanks, Jen. Got the test results and it's not a thyroid disorder, so they're going to try medication (they've prescribed Celexa) and continued counseling sessions and see where that takes me, I'm going back to the doctor in March so we can reassess the effectiveness of these methods. It is general anxiety so I'm not sure the Buspar would help. Most of Saturday I was miserably anxious even though I was not in any stressful situations--just puttering around the house.
I took Coloxpen for awhile there.

Alex Rodriguez just wants to get back on the field, even if it's four levels below Major League Baseball.
The controversial New York Yankees star makes his 2013 debut Tuesday night, not in pinstripes, but wearing purple and gold for a rehabilitation start on Two-for-$20 Date Night at Charleston's Riley Park. Rodriguez, sidelined since offseason hip surgery, will play at least three innings for the Low Class A RiverDogs on Tuesday night against the Rome Braves and might stick around for more innings Wednesday night.
Game time is 7 p.m. both nights.
"It will be the first game that I play in, in maybe over eight months," Rodriguez told reporters at the Yankees spring training complex in Tampa, Fla. "It's been a long time. It's going to be great to suit up again. It gets me one step closer to helping my team win in New York."
The RiverDogs are just as thrilled.
"Certainly A-Rod is a little more mainstream than most players," RiverDogs general manager Dave Echols said. "You may not be an A-Rod fan, but like him or not, he's fun to watch. We're anxious to see how A-Rod is progressing. It should be fun."
Sellouts are expected Tuesday and Wednesday. The Wednesday night "Fourth of July" celebration game was a near-sellout before the A-Rod news Monday afternoon (the RiverDogs are on the road Thursday).
An ESPN crew is on the way. The RiverDogs expect more media than the modest press box can handle.
"We're trying to scramble," Echols said.
Derek Jeter also is on the Yankees' disabled list, rehabbing a broken ankle in Tampa. How about Jeter in a RiverDogs uniform?
"We haven't heard that yet," Echols said. "But that would be nice, too."
Rodriguez, 37, clashed with Yankees GM Brian Cashman just last week after a tweet in which A-Rod said he had been cleared to play by Dr. Bryan Kelly, a surgeon who performed the hip surgery but who is not on the Yankees' payroll.
"You know what, when the Yankees want to announce something, (we will)," Cashman told ESPN New York. "Alex should just shut the (bleep) up. That's it. I'm going to call Alex now."
Rodriguez said Monday things have been patched up.
"It's all been very positive," he said in Tampa. "We're all looking in the same direction … get back to New York as soon as possible and (Tuesday) is the first big step."
Rodriguez has hit 647 home runs — fifth on the all-time list – over 19 major league seasons.
But he is among players tied to a Major League Baseball investigation of Anthony Bosch and his Biogenesis lab, which has been accused of giving performance-enhancing drugs to players.
That was coming off a rocky postseason in which the Yankees pinch-hit for Rodriguez, and team officials said they were aware that Rodriguez sought a female fan's phone number in the midst of an American League Championship Series loss to the Detroit Tigers.

- Oxidative stress induces CHIP-mediated ubiquitination and roteasomal degradation of soluble guanylyl cyclase : oral presentation (2007)
- Oxidative stress attenuates the NO-cGMP pathway, e.g. in the vascular system, through scavenging of free NO radicals by superoxide O2•-, by inactivation of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) via oxidation of its central Fe2+ ion, and by down-regulation of sGC protein levels. While the former pathways are well established, the molecular mechanisms underlying the latter are still obscure. Using oxidative sGC inhibitor ODQ we demonstrate rapid down-regulation of sGC protein in mammalian cells. Co-incubation with proteasomal inhibitor MG132 results in accumulation of ubiquitinated sGC whereas sGC activator BAY 58–2667 prevents ubiquitination. ODQ-induced down-regulation of sGC is mediated through selective ubiquitination of its b subunit, and BAY 58–2667 abrogates this effect. Ubiquitination of sGC-b is dramatically enhanced by E3 ligase CHIP. Our data indicate that oxidative stress promotes ubiquitination of sGC b subunit through E3 ligase CHIP, and that sGC activator 58–2667 reverts this effect, most likely through stabilization of the heme-free b subunit. Thus the deleterious effects of oxidative stress can be counter-balanced by an activator of a key enzyme of vascular homeostasis.
- Nitric oxide-independent vasodilator rescues heme-oxidized soluble guanylate cyclase from proteosomal degradation (2009)
- Poster presentation: Background Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential vasodilator. In vascular diseases, oxidative stress attenuates NO signaling by both chemical scavenging of free NO and oxidation and down-regulation of its major intracellular receptor, the alpha/beta heterodimeric heme-containing soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). Oxidation can also induce loss of sGC's heme and responsiveness to NO. Results sGC activators such as BAY 58-2667 bind to oxidized/heme-free sGC and reactivate the enzyme to exert disease-specific vasodilation. Here we show that oxidation-induced down-regulation of sGC protein extends to isolated blood vessels. Mechanistically, degradation was triggered through sGC ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. The heme-binding site ligand, BAY 58-2667, prevented sGC ubiquitination and stabilized both alpha and beta subunits. Conclusion Collectively, our data establish oxidation-ubiquitination of sGC as a modulator of NO/cGMP signaling and point to a new mechanism of action for sGC activating vasodilators by stabilizing their receptor, oxidized/heme-free sGC.

Hi I am new to the boards and so confused... I am 11 days Postpartum and had a beautiful Healthy baby girl.. by C-section.
I have been experiencing HP now since delivery as well as major Edema and swelling and now headaches. Was back in the hospital a few days ago and they said that all my labs come back normal.. so during PG and after they never found Protein in my Urine.. so what is exactly wrong with me what do I have then?.. My Bp was pretty normal during the PG.. now its 150/90. I am on a HP Med and also a diuretic which are helping taking the swelling away.. been very sick though with my stomach. Not sure if it is related to this or if its a separate issue.. if anyone has any ideas if I am in danger and the doctors are just not taking this seriously or should I just wait it out and see what happens.. the headaches just started today. That is why I think I am so scared now.. hearing all the horror stories of woman who got ill after having their babies.

I purchased these for my mother and mother-in-law both who are in their 80s.
My mom has found it to be wonderful for her arthritis and achy shoulders and uses it several times a day. The scent is just right as my mom is sensitive to heavy scents and this isn't overpowering at all.
My mother-in-law has Alzheimer's and is always cold. This blanket gives her warmth and is just the right weight to feel comforting without being too heavy when wrapped around her shoulders. She commented on how nice the light scent of lavender was...very calming. I'm so happy with this blanket that I'm considering getting one myself for those cold New England nights! I would definitely recommend this to anyone, any age.
- Was this a gift?:

Best Uses
I think my microwave is a bit old as it takes more than two minutes to warm the blanket, but this is wonderful. Warm, soothing, and stays warm for quite a while. My daughter came home from college and used mine so much I bought her one for her dorm room. I did get my first one as a gift, but gave the one to my daughter for Christmas because it was such a wonderful present,
- Was this a gift?:
- Yes
- durable comfort
Best Uses
I gave my grown up daughter this item about 5 or so years ago and can't believe how well it's held up, and with frequent use. I didn't realize how much she still used it! I found her cuddled up with it last year and decided to get her a new one, but it was sold out. Ordered early this year :)
This lap blanket has given her comfort for years, and I'm happy to be able to purchase another for her. I won't say it's a replacement, because the other one is still fully functional, it's just lost most of its lavender scent.
Excellent product, easy to use, holds up -quite- well through years of regular use. Great gift item, comes nicely packaged. It's on my Christmas list, too!
- Was this a gift?:
- Yes
- Easy to heat
- Soothing
- Warm
Best Uses
- Relaxation
- Sleep aid
It is great to heat up, put down on the bed and then lay on - makes for a restful sleep after working in the yard all day. I am thinking about getting another to put on top so I am sandwiched in between the warmth. I heat it in the microwave with a custard cup of 1 TBS of water to keep the filler from drying out and this adds to the warmth and comfort.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Little big to fit in the microwave. Heat once, turn over, heat again- 3 minutes total and it's ready.
Bought this blanket for my sister who just finished treatment for breast cancer. She loves it! It really helped post-treatment with the soreness in her upper arm and chest area. The scent also helped her to relax. Now I'll have to get one for myself!

Pushmataha County Sheriff's Deputy Polly Culver with her partner K-9 Deputy Athena, and Deputy Shawn Culver with his partner K-9 Deputy Reiko were excited when they got to visit Ms. Parks 1st Grade class at Antlers Elementary.
Ms. Parks had contacted Deputy Polly Culver with the news that her class had earned a reward and they had asked if the drug dog could come visit them at school.
On March 12th, the Deputies and their K-9 Deputy partners went and visited with the class. The Deputies showed the class the difference between the two drug dogs and how they alerted the officers to let them know when they smelled the odor of a drug.
The children also were allowed to love on K-9 Deputy Athena and received stickers and coloring books.

Vibram Five Fingers KSO KidsDo you remember the liberating feeling of running barefoot in your backyard as a kid? Children inherently understand the benefits of being barefoot whether it is better balance, enhanced sensory perception or just the liberating feeling of the ground beneath their feet. Unfortunately, outdoor debris and other hazards have forced parents to put traditional shoes on their children - casting their feet at an early age. By popular demand, Vibram has designed a line of FiveFingers footwear so our younger friends can experience the same benefits that our customers have been raving about for years.

Arizona's receiver Larry Fitzgerald ranks in the top 35 all time in NFL history in receptions, receiving yards and TDs.
He's generally considered a top-five receivers in the game.
All that said, owners in desperate of needing to fill a roster spot -- say a possible replacement for Washington's Robert Griffin III -- can get away with cutting Fitzgerald this week.
Say what?
Yep, it's OK to cut Fitzgerald. This isn't an over-reaction to Arizona's 58-0 loss to Seattle in Week 14.
Fitzgerald's production has fallen off over the past four weeks. In that stretch, Fitzgerald has 37 targets. That's reasonable, but the results -- six receptions for 67 yards and no TDs -- are not.
Don't count on Arizona's quarterback combination of John Skelton and Ryan Lindley to improve either. The tandem has two TDs and 14 interceptions this season.
Finally, owners can't count on the big play in Weeks 15-16. Chicago and Detroit both rank in the top 10 in fewest pass plays of 25 yards or more allowed, according to StatsPass.com. Not all of this is Fitzgerald's fault, of course, but owners can't afford to make their decisions based on sympathy.
All of these are reasons why it's OK to cut ties now. The three guys who are just ahead of Fitzgerald in fantasy points this season -- New England's Brandon Lloyd, Philadelphia's Jeremy Maclin and Indianapolis' Donnie Avery -- all are better options over the next two weeks.

I've tried Fox long socks, ARC knee brace socks, Asterisk knee brace socks and I've doubled them up but my knee braces always end up sliding out of place & hurt my legs. The Asterisk pants keep the braces right where you want them and are well made. These are the way to go to keep your knee braces in position.Read All Reviews

Angel in TX
bought the pair 1.1 years ago (which is the latest model). I am a weekend rider PROS: performs intended job. looks well (but who looks at them while inside your pants?) CONS: tend to slip from location and at times produces blisters behind the knee. first set was sent back as outer paint finish / coating was not applied (braces were bare - no color). Second set lasted about 3 months before the top latch (rubber) between the brace and the wrap around latch sheared off while putting it on. I contacted Asterisk as the always helpful RM staff said they couldn't address the issue. Asterisk was not responsive to emails nor VMs until I called them for the 14th time - I was promised a set of latches in the mail. after failing to see those for 3 weeks I called them again with the same promised made - no result until today. several emails were issued with the same request. I decided to use a cable tie in place of the rubber latch which has helped. I am not keen on purchasing another set, instead, I am now switching to LEATT. ADDITIONAL INFO : the feel for the bike is lost with the braces when pushing against the radiator shrouds. the braces wear major holes in the inside of the pants. Braces are not easy to manuever when putting the pants on, at times catching on the inner liner of the pants. using the new available sock to go over may help but yet is not another unnecessary expense.Read All Reviews

Expand Your Mythos Knowledge
The Updated Arkham Horror FAQ Is Now Available
The librarian said something that McGlen couldn't hear—the explosion was still ringing in his ears. Once the smoke cleared, he saw the safe door hanging loosely from its hinges. "See? I know explosives. Everything inside is fine." The big man could barely finish his sentence before Daisy pushed past him.
Daisy recognized the ancient book's bindings instantly. "It's here," she gasped. McGlen still couldn't hear her. She shouted, "It's here, you big lug! It's the one we've been looking for!"
A new tome has been unearthed which will provide vital information to the brave investigators struggling to prevent the return of the Ancient Ones. The Arkham Horror FAQ provides errata, clarifications, and the answers to several frequently-asked questions for the Arkham Horror and all of its expansions.
This thorough document can be downloaded as one complete file or each product's FAQ may be downloaded individually.
A Word from the Producer
Producer Tim Uren offered a few words about the newly updated FAQ:
Much has happened since the last update to the Arkham Horror FAQ, including the release of no fewer than seven expansions. With each new addition to the line of Arkham Horror products, not only have more rules and components been added, but the game itself has evolved. Clarifications that were unnecessary when the game was released now carry great significance. And of course with the addition of new rules and hundreds of new components, unexpected conflicts and strange situations inevitably pop up.
This update to the FAQ was compiled to address these issues for players, whether they play with just the Arkham Horror Board Game, add one favorite expansion, or use every product in the catalog. The assembly of this document was no small feat and many thanks go to the players who have been tirelessly struggling against the Ancient Ones for so many years. The madness you have suffered is a small price to pay to keep the world safe.
Thanks Tim! The newly updated all-in-one Arkham Horror FAQ (pdf, 24.7 MB) and all of the product-specific FAQs can be downloaded on the Support page for Arkham Horror.

Inherited metabolic diseases are a group of disorders that cause missing or defective enzymes. The enzyme problems can lead to:
- A build up of harmful substances that the enzymes would otherwise breakdown
- An inability to fully breakdown food for use in the cells
There are thousands of inherited metabolic diseases.
These diseases are caused by a problem with the genes that determine how specific enzymes are made. The genes are passed on from parent(s) to child.
Risk Factors
Inherited metabolic disease is more common in families with Ashkenazi Jewish, Finnish, or Dutch heritage. A family history increases the chance of these diseases as well.
Symptoms can be severe and appear shortly after birth. Symptoms can also be mild and detected later in life. Tell your doctor if your child has any of these:
- Skin rash
- Recurrent infections or hernias
- Developmental delays
- Problems with hearing or sight
- Problems including pain with bones
- Problems with heart
- Seizures
These symptoms may be caused by other conditions. If your child has any of these, talk to the doctor.
The doctor will ask about your child's symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Skin and blood testing may be done to look for the specific enzyme that is causing the problem.
Other tests may be done to look for any problems that may have developed. Tests may include:
- Screening tests for vision and hearing
- Eye exams
- Neuropsychological testing—measures mental function
- MRI scan
- Lumbar puncture —fluid is taken from the spine and examined
- Tissue biopsy —a sample of tissues is taken and examined
- Electromyogram (EMG)—measures electrical impulses in the muscles
- Other special tests of the heart, liver, and kidneys
Prenatal testing and newborn screening may help with early detection.
Talk with the doctor about the best treatment plan for your child. Treatment will depend on the type of condition your child has. Options may include:
Dietary changes that may be required include avoiding certain foods, avoiding long periods of not eating, or taking vitamins.
Ongoing Symptom Management
To manage symptoms and other conditions, your child may need:
- Dialysis
- Physical therapy
- Surgery
- Medications
Enzyme Therapy
- Substrate Synthesis Inhibition Therapy (SSI)—Medication that decreases the item that build up in the cells due to missing enzymes.
- Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT)—Working enzymes are delivered through an IV to do the job of the defective enzymes.
- Stem Cell Transplant— Stem cells are transplanted through IV to encourage the body to make the missing enzyme.
Ongoing Monitoring
For some conditions, regular annual screening tests will be needed, such as:
- Vision and hearing tests
- Electrocardiogram (EKG) and echocardiogram to assess heart function

The next phase of the search for Flight 370 has begun with the arrival of search vessels that will conduct detailed sonar sweeps of the southern Indian Ocean. Look back on the months-long search for the Malaysia Airlines jetliner that went missing in March.
The flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing went missing on March 8. In early April, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak confirmed everyone's worst fears with news that the jetliner did indeed go down over the southern Indian Ocean and had not landed elsewhere as some had hoped.
He cited a new analysis of satellite data by a British satellite company and accident investigators for the dramatic announcement, effectively ending hopes that anyone survived.
Here is a look at the unprecedented international effort to solve what has become one of modern aviation's greatest mysteries.
Co-pilot Marc Smith turns his Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) AP-3C Orion aircraft at low level in bad weather while searching for missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 over the southern Indian Ocean on March 24, 2014.
Royal Australian Air Force Flight Lt. Russell Adams speaks to media at Pearce Airbase on March 29, 2014, in Perth, Australia, regarding the search for missing Flight 370.
Royal Australian Air Force Airborne Electronics Analyst, Sgt. Ben Herbert from No. 10 Squadron, prepares to man his station prior to entering the search area aboard an AP-3C Orion off the coast of Western Australia.
Radar specialists are pictured aboard a Royal New Zealand Air Force P-3K2 Orion aircraft searching for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 over the southern Indian Ocean on March 22, 2014.
Lts. Kyle Atakturk (L) and Nicholas Horton, fly a U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon during a mission over the Indian Ocean to assist in search and rescue operations for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 on March 19, 2014.
Australian Air Force Tactical Coordinator, Flying Officer Imray Cooray from No. 10 Squadron, coordinates the execution of a search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 aboard an AP-3C Orion.
The area the plane went down in is considered one of the most remote in the world.
At one point, the search covered an area nearly the size of the United States.
One of the initial search areas west of Perth was so remote that it took three hours just to get there by plane.
Crews then had only a couple hours to search before having to return so they didn't run out of fuel.
Investigators initially focused on an area in the South China Sea, where the plane was last detected at a normal cruising altitude of 35,000 feet in the early hours of March 8.
Crews then focused their efforts on an area 1,500 miles west of Perth after several reports of debris being spotted. Here, members of the Australian Defense Force drop data markers over possible debris fields.
The search has now gone underwater, with the U.S. military bringing in a "ping detector" in an attempt to pick up data from the airliner's black box. In this handout image provided by the Australian Department of Defense, a Phoenix underwater drone Bluefin-21 is lifted over the side of Australian naval vessel Ocean Shield on April 14, 2014.

Devi Seamless Boyshort 6 6
LOVE THESE I had bought these a month or two ago and as soon as I wore them I went crazy on the website trying to order more. I'm 5'2 and 120lbs I bought a medium because my butt would never fit into a small. I recently bought the Fabulous from VS same style and I prefer the bebe over them August 13, 2013
Comfort and seamless !! Smooth with not hint of seam, comfortable, purchased the XS that seems to run small but well made and contoured nicely. July 26, 2013
Not well made These boyshorts are seemless. However, the cotton crotch is way too far towards the back and not in the right position. May 15, 2013
very comfy i love the seamless panties buy bebe i would buy more but they sold out ! May 15, 2013
Finally!!! This is a must have . Get them in every color if you can. I've tried other brands like Victorias Secret ,and bebe by far are the best. I wear XS on bebe clothing and the XS fits just right. May 9, 2013
Feels like your wearing nothing It's a true no show! Wear it with a dress, pant, or whatever! There's no panty line. I got every color. April 1, 2013

Comments about THORLO TMX Thick Cushion Tennis Quarter Socks:
First thing, this is a great pair of socks, no question.
I was the only person at our tennis club wearing these "shorties".
They did the job, but there were actually a couple of smart-aleck comments in the bar after our game about "Mister No-Socks", and how I might have broken some kind of dress code.
That's all I needed to hear. I'll go with my wool Jack Kramer socks next time and keep these Thorlos in the drawer-lo.

|Home > Tutorials > Getting Started > Introducing Interceptors
So far our tutorials have not delved into the inner workings of the Struts 2 framework. But in this tutorial we'll introduce a key set of classes the Struts 2 framework relies upon to do most of the work whenever an Action is executed. In this tutorial's example project there is a register link that is mapped in the Struts XML configuration file (struts.xml) to the execute method of class Register. Before that execute method is called much work is done behind the scenes by the Struts 2 framework. For example:
After the execute method is completed more work must be done
The benefit of using Struts 2 is all this work happens automatically. You can focus on the logic of the controller (the Struts 2 ActionSupport class), the Service layer, the data access layer, your domain models, etc.
The tasks that are done by the Struts 2 framework before and after an Action is executed are done by Struts 2 interceptors. Interceptors are standard Java classes included in the Struts 2 core jar which are executed in a specific order.
In our example application there is a package node in struts.xml. The package node has an attribute of extends with a value of "struts-default." The value "struts-default" identifies to the framework the specific stack of interceptors that will be executed before and after the Actions in that package.
If you want to learn more about the inner workings of interceptors, what interceptors belong to the struts default stack, and what are all the interceptors included with Struts 2, visit Understanding Interceptors.
Sometime the Struts 2 default stack of interceptors are not exactly what you need for a particular action. You may want to use interceptors that are not part of the Struts 2 default stack. For an individual Action or for the entire package of Actions, you can specify a different stack of interceptors that the Action or package should use. Below is how you would specify that the register Action should use both the logger and timer interceptors in addition to the interceptors provided by the default stack.
The logger interceptor logs the start and end of the execution of an Action. The timer interceptor logs the amount of time (in milliseconds) for execution of the Action. These two interceptors used together can provide developers useful feedback.
In the code example above note the three interceptor-ref nodes. Each one has a value for the name attribute. For the register Action we are instructing the framework to use the timer, logger, and defaultStack interceptors. The defaultStack are all the interceptors normally executed for an Action.
How did I know to use the value of timer for the name attribute and even that there is a timer interceptor? On the Interceptors web page in the Struts 2 documentation are a list of interceptors that come with the Struts 2 framework and what the name value is for each interceptor.
How did I know that the timer interceptor isn't part of the defaultStack of interceptors already? Again on the Interceptors documentation web page is a list of which interceptors belong to the defaultStack.
Note the param nodes. These nodes are used to provide a value to the setLogEnabled and setLogLevel methods of the Exception Interceptor. Providing the values of true and ERROR will cause the Struts 2 framework to log any exceptions not caught by the application's code and to log those exceptions at the ERROR level.
In the example application follow the README instructions to build, deploy, and run the application. View the output sent to the JVM console to see the log messages generated by the logger and timer interceptors. You should see log messages similar to the following:
INFO: Starting execution stack for action //register
Nov 20, 2010 9:55:48 AM com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.logging.jdk.JdkLogger info
INFO: Finishing execution stack for action //register
Nov 20, 2010 9:55:48 AM com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.logging.jdk.JdkLogger info
INFO: Executed action //register!execute took 177 ms.
If you wanted to have the logger and timer interceptors executed for all Actions in a package you would use the following in struts.xml:
In the code above we use the interceptors node to define a new stack of interceptors that includes the timer, logger, and defaultStack interceptors. We give this new interceptor stack a name of appDefault. Then we use the default-interceptor-ref node to specify that for all Actions defined inside this package node the appDefault stack of interceptors are to be used. Thus the timer and logger interceptor will be executed for each Action in this package.
Note that in both examples we are still executing all the other interceptors by including the defaultStack as one of the interceptor-ref nodes. When you specify what interceptors you want to use for an Action or a package then only those interceptors are executed. So if in the example we had left out the interceptor-ref for defaultStack only the logger and timer interceptors would have executed.
In addition to specifying your own stack of interceptors, you can also write your own new interceptor and add it to the stack that is executed. The Struts Writing Interceptors guide explains how to do this. For example, you could create your own interceptor to handle authentication and authorization.
Interceptors provide the Struts 2 framework with both power and flexibility. Developers may add additional interceptors (either ones provided by Struts 2 or ones they create) to the stack of interceptors executed when an Action class is called.
For more information about interceptors consult the Struts 2 Interceptor documentation.

Summerville American claimed the 2013 South Carolina Little League Baseball District 2 Minors (age 9-10) Championship Monday with a 7-4 victory over Summerville National.
Noah McGahee earned the pitching win after spending three-plus innings on the mound and surrendering only a few hits. He struck out six batters. Jacob Altman relieved him in the fourth and didn't surrender a single hit to pick up the save.
McGahee also led all batters, going 2 for 3 at the plate with two runs scored. Travis Pope had two RBIs and scored a run for Summerville American.
Sean Farrell led the Summerville National batters, reaching on a single and an error and driving in a run. Jack Luxmore scored two of Summerville National's runs.
With the win, Summerville American advances to the Little League Minors state tournament to be held in Irmo July 11. There, six teams will compete for a state championship in the double elimination tournament.
Summerville National got off to a good start in the District 2 championship series held at Crowfield Little League. Luxmore led off Monday's game and reached on a base on balls. Devon Ennis drove him in with a fielder's choice.
Summerville National then loaded the bases and Ennis scored on a catcher's interference call for a 2-0 Summerville National lead.
Summerville American answered in the bottom of the frame.
Mason Woznac received a base on balls, advanced off a single by McGahee and scored off a single by Dakota Creech. Xavier Silva received a walk to load the bases and then Pope drove in McGahee to tie the game.
The score held until the bottom of the third when Summerville American had its most productive turn at bat.
Creech and Silva both reached on a base on balls and Pope doubled to plate Creech. Eric Vien followed with a single to drive in Silva. Summerville American loaded the bases with another base on balls and then Pope scored on a wild pitch to give his team a 5-2 lead.
Summerville National kept things interesting by scoring two runs in the fourth. After the team loaded the bases, Farrell drove in Luxmore and Nathan Malloy scored on a wild pitch to cut the lead to a run.
Summerville American's final two runs were due largely to errors. In the bottom of the fourth, a high throw on a pick-off attempt allowed McGahee to score.
In the fifth, Tradd Cross reached on a base on balls. He stole second, advanced to third on a high throw during the play and kept running. Summerville National had a chance to make a play at the plate but the throw home was also high.
Altman fanned the first batter in the sixth and got the next two batters to ground out to end the game.
This weekend, Summerville Little League will host the District 2 50/70 Intermediate (11-13) Tournament. The tournament begins Friday at 7 p.m. at the Boundary Street fields. Saturday games are slated to begin at 10 a.m.
Summerville Little League will also host the state Intermediate Tournament beginning on July 6. Later this summer, Summerville Little League will host the District 2 Juniors (13-14) Tournament but a date has not yet been set for that tournament.

text: Dolphin Stories Wednesday, April 23, 2014 Students Conduct Rain Forest Research in Costa Rica 11:26 AM :: 4420 Views Earlier this year, Environmental Science Systems Professor Larry Tanner and two Le Moyne students traveled to Costa Rica to study the carbon dynamics of reforestation in the mountain cloud forests of the Central American country. Working in conjunction with the Monteverde Institute (a private educational-research organization) the goal of the research conducted by Tanner and juniors Megan Wilckens and Morgan Nivison was to determine how long it takes for mature forests that have been cut down to recover all of the carbon lost from the forest and soil when the forest is allowed to regrow. For Nivison, this was her third international research trip, having accompanied Tanner and other students to Iceland and Costa Rica previously. " I love research trips and traveling, so I was just wanted to get to Costa Rica as soon as I could and start our next project," she said. "Most of our days consisted of working in mature forests, secondary forests, and clearings measuring the above ground tree biomass and the soil carbon. My job mainly consisted of pulling soil cores, recording the color and grain size, and bagging them so we could transport them back to Le Moyne." "I've never been in a rain forest before so being in one every day for over a week was amazing, seeing something completely different than what I'm used to at home," said Wilckens. "I loved being able to actually do work in the field with Dr. Tanner, Morgan and Katie Johnson, a biologist at the Monteverde Institute." The experience in Costa Rica was her first taste of field research. While the bulk of their time was spent in the field, they were able to take some time and explore other aspects of Costa Rica. They ventured out on a couple of very interesting hikes, which were grueling and at some points very steep, but led them to vistas that were off the beaten path. "These sites were spectacular natural features that are not huge tourist sites, which makes it that much better in my opinion," said Nivison. They swam in the Pacific Ocean and even went zip-lining. Both students' long-range plans are to continue onto graduate school once they get their undergraduate degrees in environmental science systems, and the experience in Costa Rica will clearly help them achieve that goal. "One of the biggest reasons I came to Le Moyne for the environmental science program was because of the travel/research options that were available, but I didn't expect to have multiple opportunities to do so," said Nivison, who hopes to become a fluvial geomorphologist and eventually get her Ph.D. Wilckens wants to work with others on restoration and conservation efforts to protect threatened habitats and species from anthropogenic causes. "Working with Dr. Tanner was great. He's done a lot of research before so he knew what needed to be done and how to do it," she said. "Before we went he sent us articles and information to study and familiarize ourselves with so we'd be prepared. Once in the field he showed us what we needed to do and assisted us in collecting the data. I was learning new things the whole time I was there." Once they returned to campus, Nivison was responsible for analyzing the more than 300 soil samples collected, while Wilckens calculated the carbon mass for approximately 1,600 trees she measured. The pair presented their research at Le Moyne's Student Scholars Day in April and are currently working on publishing the results of their work.

Chicken Chow Mein from 'The Chinese Takeout Cookbook'
When properly made, chicken chow mein is American-style Chinese comfort food at its best--stir-fried noodles, chicken, and vegetables doused in a simple, sweet and salty sauce will make any tired and hungry eater smile. All too often, however, chow mein comes slick with grease and full of over-cooked chunks of stringy chicken. Diana Kuan's recipe in The Chinese Takeout Cookbook solves these problems with ease. The chicken spends no more than four minutes on the heat, and the oil is reduced to a modest 3 tablespoons (just enough to keep the noodles from fusing to the pan). A quick soy and rice wine marinade adds more oomph to the chicken, and the use of dried shiitake mushrooms gives the final dish savoriness and depth. More

A 7-year-old girl is responsible for the safety of a family and is the reason their house is still standing today.
Ayla Brewer, a first grader at West Yadkin Elementary, can be shy and silly like most girls her age. But when it came to life or death on Feb. 4, Brewer put her knowledge of fire safety to use and saved a Hamptonville family's home and quite possibly their lives.
It was approximately 10 p.m. on Feb. 4 when Ayla Brewer was walking out of the West Yadkin Volunteer Fire Department where her father is a firefighter and EMT. She looked at the neighboring house that and noticed that there were flames coming from the chimney.
"I was walking outside with my sister, and I saw smoke and I saw fire," Ayla said. "I went back in and told my mom and she told the firefighters. It scared me."
Ayla quickly ran back inside to tell her mom, Stephanie, what she saw and ask from help from her father and his fellow firefighters.
"It scared me to death," Stephanie said. "I was hoping that she was just playing and I looked outside and flames were just rolling out."
Ayla's father, Andy, was one of the firefighters who responded to the blaze, and he said it was the worst chimney fire he had ever seen.
"When we came out of the station the bottom of the chimney was blowing flames out of each side of it about three feet," Andy said. "There was a lot of fire coming out of that chimney."
Andy said that firefighters had to remove the wood from the fire burning in the fireplace and tried to use a chimney snuffer to put out the blaze within the chimney but were not successful.
"It couldn't get to the fire because of buildup so I ran my hand up the chimney with a fire extinguisher and with the draft pulling up it pulled all that chemical up and knocked a lot of the fire out," Andy said. "From start to clean up we were probably there for about 45 minutes to an hour."
The owner of the home, Jennifer Swanner, is a family friend of the Brewers and works with Ayla's aunt at Yadkin Valley Community Hospital. Swanner says she was asleep in an upstairs bedroom when the fire took place and that her husband and mother-in-law were also in the house and unaware of what was happening.
"I was upstairs asleep and wasn't aware anything was going on," Swanner said. "My mother-in-law had just had surgery for cancer and she heard people from the fire department yelling and that's what woke her up. Had it not been for Ayla seeing that and going and notifying the fire department our house could have actually caught on fire and we wouldn't have known anything about it."
According to Swanner's insurance adjuster, the heat from the fire in the chimney was enough to melt the insulation in the attic and was only minutes from setting fire to the attic and upstairs bedrooms.
"The chimney is probably going to have to be replaced," Swanner said. "It did just a little bit of damage to the roof and on the inside most of the damage is just smoke related."
Once Ayla realized that her actions saved Swanner's home she said she felt good and she was proud of herself for her heroic act.
Ayla said that she has always been interested in the work of the fire department has wanted to be a firefighters as long as she could remember.
"She's always wanted me to give her training and I'll point stuff out on the truck and make her find it," Andy said. "I was tickled that she caught this fire and helped stop it. This is our little junior firefighter."
