Sweet Comic Valentine
You Make Me Smile With My Heart
You're Looks Are Laughable,
Yet You're My Favorite Work Of Art
Is Your Figure Less Than Greek
Is Your Mouth A Little Weak
When You Open It To Speak
Are You Smart
Don't Change A Hair For Me
Not If You Care For Me
Stay Little Valentine Stay
Each Day Is Valentine's Day
His blue-green eyes stared up into mine, yearning and self-doubt flitting across his regard, that fairy dance of desire and yet-to-be requited love. "Pale eyes, green and blue," he claimed, "reveal all, bare the soul, expose the heart. Dark eyes, so cruel, punish with their hidden mysteries, cards held close to the chest." His gentle look met mine across the table, that tiny wooden table in that tiny wine bar fronting the Seine on that warm summer afternoon. Love confessed over a warm lentil salad left untouched until the words he wished to hear escaped from my lips, my vow made amidst the noise of bottles and glasses, knives and forks against plates, noise never heard by two lovers caught up in their own tale of love.
The words were uttered, low and nervously, hands sliding across the white paper atop the deep chocolate-colored wood, fingertips brushing fingertips, relief washing across his face and washed down with ruby red wine, the color of our hearts. Words handled carefully like fragile, paper-thin glass figurines that would shatter in a million pieces if dropped, light as air, delicate as porcelain yet heavy with significance because once whispered these words could never be taken back. I knew that he would grab them up and cling to them and never let them go. They would be his forever. Yet utter them I did because I knew. And he gathered me up and took me home to stay.
"One thing you should know about me," he declared as I watched him dress, crumpled sheets pulled up to my chin, drunk on love, "you will never receive chocolates from me. I will shower you with gifts, buy you jewelry, fill your arms with flowers, but I will not buy you candy. Chocolate is a vice like cigarettes and alcohol and I will not feed any vice." And as Valentine's Day approached he stoutly proclaimed his disdain for this "American holiday, this commercial invention by some ad man or company created for the sake of making a few bucks." "And I certainly don't need someone else to designate one particular day, tell me when and how I should tell you that I love you! I can do that when and how I please!"
Yet that first Valentine's Day together a single chocolate heart was placed atop my pillow with all the care of a newborn babe. One single chocolate heart filled with a thousand words, words that said "I love you" silently yet louder than if he had screamed them from the rooftops. With that one beautifully wrapped chocolate heart he let me know that he understood that this single gesture meant more to me than his contempt for the signs in shop windows and the ads on TV, the French adaptation of this very American faux holiday. He understood that expectation fluttered underneath my bold claim of agreement with him, my apparent disinterest for this special date, expectation fluttering like a schoolgirl heart as she places that shoebox decorated with pink crepe paper hearts and white doilies on the corner of her desk as she silently utters a prayer.
Valentine's Days have come and gone, 22 of them, to be exact. 22 years filled with roses and tulips, carnations and peonies, stunning jewels and breathtaking adventure. Although shops may fill their vitrines with pink macarons or heart-shaped candies, boxes tied up in red ribbon or fluffy white stuffed animals dressed up in red bows, our routine never changes. Grumbles and moans emanate from my man, my lover, the most eternally romantic of souls, at the very first signs of cherubin, putti, Cupids, roses and hearts. He curses, fist shaken heavenward, as the date rolls around. "Why, oh why do the French feel the need to appropriate this silliest of meaningless events? Send this dang-blasted holiday back where it came from! You Americans and your unadulterated nonsense! Am I supposed to fall for this?"
Yet Valentine's Day after Valentine's Day he woos me, he pampers me, he brings me flowers or chocolates, he offers to take me out to dinner. I say no, why bother? He treats me this way more often than I could have ever hoped for in my wildest girlhood daydreams. He is utterly, passionately romantic, and I am spoiled. Love letters, text messages just to make me giggle, phone calls in the middle of the day to make me laugh, flowers and gifts, snuggles and kisses, romantic trips for two, I have it all. No, I never tire of it. He is right, you know. Why do we need to follow a calendar, have another dictate our romantic interludes? I am, and always will be, his Funny Valentine.
This month the Mactweets Mac Attack requested we make macarons especially for Valentine's Day. And I did. A jar of gorgeous, deep violet-tinted Blueberry Hibiscus Sugar sitting on my shelf called to me. I pulled out the thick cork and breathed in the luscious, heady scent of this magical, incredibly intense, flavored sugar. Perfect for Valentine's Day with its luxurious bouquet, its romantic hint of flowers, and blueberries, tiny deep blue berries once thought to have aphrodisiacal qualities. Filled with a silken, voluptuously smooth Vanilla Mascarpone Cream swirled with midnight blue, tangy berry jam, this is the perfect little delicacy, the perfect romantic treat for your love, your Valentine.
90 gr egg whites (about 3) **
30 gr (1 oz, 2 Tbs + ¼ tsp) granulated sugar *
200 gr (7 oz, 1 ½ cups + 1 Tbs + 1 tsp) powdered sugar
110 gr (3 7/8 oz, 1 cup + 1 Tbs + 1 tsp) ground almonds
* I replaced 1/3 of the granulated sugar with sifted Blueberry Hibiscus Sugar and added 2 drops red food coloring to the meringue for the pale blue/purple tint
** Use aged egg whites at room temperature: egg whites can be kept for a very long time in the refrigerator and old egg whites work better for meringue than fresh whites. Whether aged or fresh, the whites should be left out, lightly covered, at room temperature for 24 hours prior to using.
Prepare 1 or 2 large baking sheets. On large pieces of white paper the size of your baking sheets, trace 1 ½ inch-diameter circles (I used the wide end of my pastry tip) evenly spaced, leaving about ¾ - 1 inch between each circle. This will be your template to help you pipe even circles of batter onto the parchment paper. You will be able to reuse these endlessly. Place one paper on each baking sheet then cover with parchment paper. Prepare a pastry bag with a plain tip (Ateco #807 or #809).
Sift the powdered sugar and the ground almonds together into a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
In a standing mixer or with a hand mixer, whip the egg whites for 30 seconds on low speed then increase speed to high and whip until the whites are foamy then begin to form soft peaks. Gradually add the granulated (with blueberry hibiscus sugar) sugar as you are whipping the whites until you obtain a glossy, stiff meringue. Add 2 drops of red food coloring and whip just until the meringue is a pale, uniform color with no streaks left.
Gently but firmly fold the whipped whites/meringue, using a silicon spatula or the equivalent, into the powdered sugar/ground almonds, turning the bowl as you lift and fold, making sure you fold in all the dry ingredients. When the batter is ready to pipe, it should flow from the spatula like lava or a thick ribbon. To test to see if you have folded it enough, drop a small amount onto a clean plate and jiggle it slightly. The top should flatten, not remain in a point. If it doesn't flatten, give the batter a few more folds.
Fill your pastry bag with the batter. Pipe circles onto the parchment paper, using the traced circles on the template sheets to guide you, holding your pastry bag above each circle and piping into the center. When you have piped all of your batter out, sprinkle half of the shells with the blueberry hibiscus sugar. DO NOT FORGET TO CAREFULLY REMOVE THE WHITE PAPER TEMPLATE FROM UNDERNEATH THE PARCHMENT PAPER. YOU DO NOT WANT THIS TEMPLATE TO GO IN THE OVEN!
Preheat your oven to 280°F (140°C).
Allow the macarons to sit out for 30 minutes to an hour. The top of each shell should form a "skin" (it will feel like it hardened a bit when gently touched). Bake the shells for 15 – 20 minutes, depending on their size (when I touched macs that were not quite done, the top jiggled a bit as if there was still a bit of liquid batter between the top and the "feet" so I let it continue to bake another minute).
Remove the tray from the oven and immediately slide the parchment paper with the shells off of the hot baking sheet and onto a surface, table or countertop. Allow to cool before sliding the shells very gently off of the parchment by slipping a cake spatula under the shell as you lift it up. Be careful or the center of the shell risks sticking to the parchment. Once cooled, pair the shells by matching tops to equal-sized bottoms which will form a cookie sandwich once filled with the cream.
Thank you, Meeta, for the original idea.
7 oz (200 g) mascarpone, drained
1 oz (30 g) fresh goat cheese, drained
2 Tbs (30 g) superfine sugar (I used about 1 ½ Tbs sugar so it wasn't too sweet as I would be adding blueberry jam)
½ tsp vanilla
Blueberry jam or jelly
It is best to have the mascarpone and the goat cheese almost at room temperature so they are creamy. Drain either or both in a colander over a bowl if necessary.
Place the mascarpone, the goat cheese, the sugar and the vanilla in a bowl and beat with an electric beater on low or with a wooden spoon until smooth, creamy, a little fluffed up and well combined. Spread the cream out and place a few tablespoons of the blueberry jam here and there on top of it. Using a sharp knife cut the jam into the cream just giving it a swirl effect. Carefully spoon into a pastry bag with a round or star tip so it doesn't blend more and pipe a dollop onto the bottom shell of each pair of shells. Sandwich closed. You can also just use a teaspoon.

So I live in a rural A.O. with mainly farming work in the immediate area.
A lot of Mexican immigrants live nearby and work the farms.
I befriended a kid who cuts my lawn and does small jobs around the house.
With money getting tight, I have not been able to give the kid much work.
With my speaking a little Spanish and him and family speaking some English we communicate.
Now it seems the whole Mexican community, in the area, is at my house ever day looking for work. Anything.
So I politely tell them the work is no longer here, it went south to Mexico. You headed in the wrong direction.
There response is "Mexico No." "Very bad now. Everyone is killing each other."
Wonder what else is happening were not hearing on the news.

I have heard a few stories about people having a really hard time getting life insurance. So today when I opened an account with a local credit union and they offered me a no (medical) questions asked policy for $3 a week (benifit amount $14000) which could be increased to $22 a week (benifit amount $100,000) I took it. I have never really though about life insurance and I don't know much about it. I figured it would be tough for me to get a good rate because of my high bp and kidney scaring. It is whole life insurance and garunteed to never decrease in coverage or increase in price.
Is this good?
I was kind of surprised that they would just give it to me without asking any medical questions.

I'm a card carrying evolutionary athiest and have come to the inevitable conclusion that we will never convince people who rally against evolution. And i'm now pretty well much beyond caring.
ID started off as an excellent compromise between the two warring factions. We could all think what we wanted to think, know the other side was wrong but have a nice polite way to discuss it at dinner parties - Brilliant. Its a pity the concept was abused in the ways that it was.
But to the original question. What is God to me?
God is a faith and comfort that i wish i had. Its the grown ups Santa. Its meant to motivate us to do well, judge us when we dont and surround us with light and comfort when we need it in the secret early hours of the morning when the whole world is grey and sad. I *wish* that i could have that. The cold hard facts of science are of little comfort when i worry about the otherside. I know that there is no otherside and that bleak emptiness without scares the crap out of me. i know that i will not be aware and that i'll have probably ceased to exist (c'mon string theory) and i'm sad for a world that doesn't have me in it. cause yes...i am *exactly* that self involved. But i cannot reconcile the mythology with the science.
I grew up amongst some deeply religious people that not only worshipped their god, but loved it in an entirely personal way that was touching to see. The idea of a God is a comfort, whether real or not, and i whole-heartedly support anyones methods of getting through the day. As long as i can get the same respect for my methods.
And to all the Anti-IDers out there, i reccomend the Church of the Flying Spaghettie Monster. A must read - and uproariously funny. If i have a church, its this one.

Thursday, May 2, 2013
Four individuals, reportedly involved in a home invasion Wednesday morning, are being sought by police.
Around 10:30 a.m., Summerville Police responded to 100 Myrtle Place for a burglary in progress. While in route, officers were informed a person had been shot, according to Captain Jon Rogers.
The individual was transported to a local hospital for treatment, although it is unclear where the person was shot.
Witness statements are inconsistent, said Rogers at the scene, but indicate that between two and four masked men entered the home. Suspects were described as males wearing all black clothing with some wearing camouflage clothing.
Alston Middle School went into an "instructional lockdown" Wednesday for an hour and a half as a precaution at the request of police, said Pat Raynor, DD2 spokeswoman. This means classes continued but no one went outside.
According to Rogers, K-9 officers attempted to track the suspects to no avail, suggesting they left the area in a vehicle.
Children on a school bus were walked to their homes as police cleared the scene.
The Dorchester County Sheriff's Office also responded backing up Summerville Police Department.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Summerville Police Department at 851-4100 or Crime Stoppers at 554-1111.

"I can't honestly recall a single day in which I haven't had some sort of reference to my sexuality. I've received physical violence twice. On each occasion I had to go to hospital."
Education For All is a campaign to stamp out homophobia and homophobic bullying in schools. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters we've been able to make significant progress, as you may have read in a number of Wales newspapers.
We've launched a dedicated website providing information and resources to both teachers and young people - last month alone, it received 2,300 visitors. A unique play about homophobic bullying has toured schools in Denbighshire. Stonewall Cymru will also contribute toward INSET training workshops as part of our work to support the Welsh Assembly Government's Anti-bullying iniative. And we've contributed to first anti-bullying week in Wales.
None of this would have been possible without the generosity of our supporters, and we are asking once again for support in continuing with this important work. To make a donation please click here.
Since the launch of Education for All, we've been contacted by young people with distressing stories of what's happening to them today in British schools. For some, it's name-calling for years which saps young people's self-confidence. However, other children have been hospitalised by homophobic bullies. Children are on anti-depressants because their school doesn't take this kind of bullying seriously.
Some lesbian and gay children are now leaving school with the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. That's a disgraceful indictment of Britain's schools in 2009.
With your help, we want to undertoke the first comprehensive survey of the educational experiences of the hundreds of thousands of young gay people in our schools across Great Britain.
Testimonies from young people are compelling but the results of a reputable national survey will allow us to engage forcefully with policy makers and educational professionals, persuading them of the pressing need - all too often still denied - to address homophobia in our schools.
The young people who contact us have convinced us of just how much work there is still to do. This pioneering survey will give a voice at last to thousands of lesbian, gay and bisexual children who would otherwise remain unheard.
Our supporters have already ensured that we've been able to make positive changes to the lives of thousands of school children. They may have been let down by their teachers and headteachers. They've often been let down by their parents as well.
Groundbreaking work challenging homophobia through the 'Fit' play has already started, but we need your support to continue this work in Wales and extend the resources available to challenge homophobia in schools.

HAMBURG, NY – Even though the playing conditions weren't the best, the effort and the hustle on the soccer field was great. La Roche College outlasted Hilbert College 1-0 in men' soccer October 20 having to playing through several down pours and sporadic windy periods. After the RedHawks' Bryan Weimerskirch netted his tenth goal of the season, the visitor's had to fight off Hilbert's second half surge. The Hawks evened their record at 7-7-1 overall and sit at 5-3 in league standings.
At 39:01, Weimerskirch chipped the ball to the opposite corner over Hilbert's Paul Liedkie, putting La Roche on the board first. Hilbert pressed through the rain and wind searching for their lucky strike the rest of the game. The Hawks outshot the visitors by six on offense and limited La Roche to only two shots during the second half. Ed Minkel, Mario Williams and Jordan Lynch each finished with four shots while Austin Mathis and Jonathan Davison each fired three shots a piece. Liedkie finished with seven saves and suffered his first loss in goal this season.
Prior to the game, Hilbert's coaching staff and underclassmen honored their seven graduating seniors. Pictured above are the seniors and their families along with the Hilbert coaching staff.
The men's soccer team finishes their 2012 regular season schedule October 23 when they host the AMCC league leader, Penn State Behrend (7-1) at 3pm. The Hawks are currently tied for 5th place and have to wait until Tuesday's games are completed to see where they are seeded for the AMCC play-offs.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations. The college's engaging, student-centered campus community offers numerous leadership, internship, and service learning opportunities from which students launch successful careers while making positive changes in their communities. The Hilbert Blueprint promotes a well-rounded student experience over four years – starting with the Foundations Seminar in the freshman year, followed by Sophomore Service, Junior Symposium, and culminating with the Senior Capstone.

PAGs are policies established by the EPA that guide the agency in enforcing the various environmental laws such as the Clean Air and Water Act in the invent of a radioactive emergency such as a nuclear/dirty bomb or factory meltdown like that occurring in Japan.
The EPA had already established PAGs in this area in 1992. They can be found here. However, the agency now plans to amend and revise these standards this year.
Because regulatory agencies form their own policies (although they can be directed by either the President or the Congress), there is no requirement to seek Congressional approval for these changes. All that is required is that the agency place the proposed changes in the Federal Register for public comment before it finalizes its draft into legal policy.
In addition to raising the level of permissible radiation in the environment, PEER suggests that the standards of cleanup after a radioactive emergency will actually be reduced. As a result, radioactive cleanup thresholds will be vastly lowered and, by default, permissible levels of radiation will be vastly increased in this manner as well.
As Michael Kane writes for Collapsenet, the current EPA numbers, as well as those generally agreed upon in the international radiation assessment community, all point to the fact that these increases in permissible levels would create a level of radiation where approximately 1 in 4 people would contract cancer from exposure to them.
The changes to the 1992 PAGs are not a new attempt by the EPA. The agency attempted similar changes in 2009 but the revisions were stopped largely by a barrage of FOIA requests and a lawsuit filed by PEER. However, in 2009 there was no massive radiation disaster the EPA needed to cover up as there is at the current time. In 2009, the EPA could afford to back off, regroup, and try again at a later date. Unfortunately, it is not likely to react the same way this time around.
As of the time of this writing, a toxic cloud of radiation has not only reached the US West Coast, but has spread all the way across the country to states like South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida, and Massachussetts. Both the US government and the mainstream media have largely denied any risk associated with the radiation and have actively engaged in covering up the extent to which it has spread across the country.
In the event of any real journalism, the revelation of the danger and scale of the Japanese radiation cloud could be disastrous for those who hide the truth from the people who are sure to suffer the consequences. Indeed, the revelation that a toxic cloud of cancer-causing particles is littering the United States (especially in real time) might even be too much for the average television- and sports-obsessed American to handle.
However, the lowering of safety standards for radiation contamination would be a major victory for those wishing to cover it up. After all, the talking heads would then be able to claim that the radiation levels are within the safety range set by the EPA.
Regardless of the motivation behind these new changes, they must be actively opposed. We cannot allow the veil to be pulled even further over the eyes of the American people. At the very least, we cannot allow an agency charged with protecting both the environment and the people who live in it to set standards alleviating itself of that responsibility.

Ashtabula Area College Committee, Inc.
Ashtabula Area College Committee Members
In 1957, a farsighted group of our community leaders came together to enable, promote and ensure local economic vitality. One of the important goals of the group was to obtain an accredited university program in the Ashtabula area. As an outgrowth of that meeting, the Ashtabula Area College Committee, Inc. (AACCI) was organized the following year.
In the Code of Regulations that governs the AACCI, it is spelled out that the purpose of the College Committee is "to provide liaison between Ashtabula Kent State University Center and the area which it serves, and to perform such other functions as are required to obtain a maximum quality educational opportunity in the community."
Since the inception of the AACCI 48 years ago, citizens of Ashtabula County from all walks of life have generously given their time and talents to serve the University and its students. Currently, fifteen (15) persons comprise the membership of the Committee. Since 1990, the AACCI has funded approximately $200,000 in scholarships, all the while administering an additional $400,000 in student financial support acquired from outside sources.
Each year the combined generosity of local families, companies and organizations allows students to attend Kent's Campus on the Lake; almost $150,000 is awarded annually to students who would otherwise not have the opportunity to study at our campus.
To honor the deserving students who receive academic scholarships, the College Committee sponsors and hosts a Scholarship Recipient and Patron Recognition Banquet each year. The banquet is intended not only to recognize the academic awards, but also to thank our generous patrons for their much-appreciated support.
The defined mission of the Ashtabula Area College Committee, Inc. is "to create an enhanced educational environment for the community, by enlisting broad based community support and involvement for the educational resources and opportunities provided by the Kent State University's Ashtabula Campus." A by-product of that mission is the presentation of the College Committee's Outstanding Community Service Award at graduation. The purpose of the award is to recognize outstanding contributions to education through leadership, vision, resources and commitment within the area served by the Ashtabula Campus of Kent State University, thereby enhancing the educational environment for the community and mirroring the goals of the College Committee.
It is the aim of the College Committee to continue working with Kent State Ashtabula to provide scholarships to students and to promote the growth of the campus in order to maintain a maximum quality educational opportunity in the community.

For the Diplomat, I take a look at five major potential developments to watch in Pakistan in 2012. Read the article here.
Jan 4, 2012 1
Salmaan Taseer was no angel. Like you and I, he had his shortcomings. He was human.
Unlike many prominent Pakistanis, Taseer had the courage and moral sensibility to stand up for a vulnerable woman accused of an act of blasphemy she probably did not commit. Salmaan Taseer rose up in defense of Asiya Bibi, a Christian woman, because he was human.
The late governor of Punjab was killed by a man claiming to act in God's Name. His murderer and those who condone the wretched act allege that Taseer blasphemed by criticizing the laws that put Asiya Bibi on death row as a "black law." But Taseer's comments were focused on man-made legislation claiming to adhere to Islam. This legislation was added to Pakistan's Penal Code by a military ruler, Zia-ul-Haq, during the 1980s. Pakistan's anti-blasphemy laws besmirch the religion they seek to protect. They create an environment of persecution, not tolerance, where Christians involved in property disputes can be easily taken out of the picture with a simple accusation of disparaging Islam.
Salmaan Taseer did the right thing. Sadly, instead of being lionized, he was reviled. Many in Pakistan celebrated his death or condoned his assassination. Others were afraid to publicly condemn his murder in unequivocal terms.
The tragedy that unfolded one year ago in Islamabad was not simply that Taseer was barbarically killed by a madman. The tragedy was also that millions of ordinary people indulged in the same self-righteous lunacy as the madman.
As outsiders peered into Pakistan during those January days, many must have wondered whether this country of 180 million was not a homeland for the subcontinent's Muslims, but an insane asylum for them, penned in between the Hindu Kush and the western edges of the Thar Desert. That Pakistan is now a metaphor used to describe a country that has fallen to antediluvian marauders is something Pakistanis should not dismiss defensively; they should take it as a valuable appraisal of what their homeland has become.
Pakistan will be a safer home for its citizens when Salmaan Taseer is recognized as a hero within and his murderer as a shameless fanatic; when its weakest have strong advocates among the powerful; and when it realizes for itself the tolerance and respect for human rights it expects of others, particularly the West.
How Pakistanis perceive Salmaan Taseer is a litmus test for the country's collective soul. For how human it is.

Tuesday, October 22, 2013
Reed Fosberry has become the latest Fosberry product to make a name for himself at Bishop England. Reed — a senior quarterback and safety — threw three touchdowns, ran another one in and scored a fifth and final touchdown by returning a fumble. He also snagged an interception on defense.
It was enough to lead the Battling Bishops (6-2 overall, 5-0 region) to their sixth consecutive win, 59-26, over region foe Garrett this past Friday night.
Fosberry started the scoring melee, which included Bishop England scoring 56 points through three quarters, in the first period off a seven-yard run. After Garrett connected on a 74-yard pass and catch for a touchdown, Fosberry kept the Bishops in front with a 56-yard heave to younger brother Lawton Fosberry.
That marked the beginning of a dominating stretch by Bishop England, scoring 42 unanswered points, to win comfortably.
Senior running back Nick Shiver tallied 162 yards on 12 carries and a pair of touchdowns. Reed Fosberry threw for a career-high 141 yards off 5-of-9 passing. Senior kicker Matthew Mellin booted a career-long 43-yard field goal for the Bishops only fourth quarter score.
While it was the most balanced offensive output Bishop England has had this season, the bulk of the offense still came on the ground, where Bishops rushers totaled 306 yards.
Garrett (5-3, 2-3) was led by Jamey Cooper's 116 rushing yards and a touchdown. Quarterback Derrell Roberts threw for 88 yards with two touchdowns and an interception, and he managed 107 rushing yards and a touchdown.
Bishop England hosts Woodland (8-0, 5-0) on Friday in what will determine the region champion. The Wolverines have won all their region games by 14 or more points.

Topic Index
The Pathologist
The Pathology Report
Screening Tests for Common Diseases
Clinical Pathology
Anatomical Pathology
Pathology is the study of disease. A pathologist is a medical doctor who looks at the causes of disease, how diseases progress, and how diseases affect the body.
However, instead of examining the patient physically, a pathologist examines body fluids and tissue samples from that patient to help the primary doctor make a diagnosis.
Most people have had blood and urine tests done during their lifetime. These tests are analyzed by pathologists to help determine the next step in a patient's treatment plan.
Lab tests of almost any nature are done to establish or confirm a diagnosis; rule out diagnoses; help determine a treatment plan; monitor a disease and how it responds to treatment; or screen for any underlying disease or risk factors.
Lab tests are done in both independent and hospital-associated labs, which are under direction of pathologists. Medical labs can be categorized as clinical pathology or anatomical pathology.
Clinical pathology is the study of diseases through evaluation of the body's biochemical processes, such as the production of hormones, enzymes, and other substances. Clinical pathologists analyze blood, urine, and other body fluids.
Anatomical pathology is the study of diseases by examining tissue samples obtained through surgery or an autopsy from specific parts of the body. Anatomical pathology helps determine the causes and effects of a particular disease.

A shooting in Ladson involving a Summerville man is being investigated by SLED.
According to the Berkeley County Sheriffs Office release, a deputy pulled over a 2014 Ford Fusion just after 9:30 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 8, on College Park Road in Ladson.
According to a BCSO release, at the time of the stop a shooting occurred inside the stopped vehicle. The deputy was not involved in the shooting incident.
A 21-year-old female was wounded and transported to a local hospital for non-life threatening injuries, and was treated and released. The passenger, Jemane Antone Sanders, 27, of Brookstone Way in Summerville, was arrested on an outstanding General Session Bench warrant, the BCSO reported.
This agency requested the assistance of the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division to investigate the shooting incident.
According to the BCSO release, it is standard procedure for this request because a deputy of the Berkeley County Sheriffs Office made a traffic stop when the shooting occurred.

Sears store Manager Alan Glover was on site yesterday as community members celebrated Emergency Personnel Appreciation Day. The event was held in the store parking lot at Aiken Mall.
"We try to do as much as we can to recognize these guys," Glover said. "We're here to create awareness and even though Sears is a major corporation, the individual stores try to support their towns. So we take pride in being able to partner with the people of our community."
Held in honor of National Fire Safety Month, the event included participation from Aiken Public Safety, the Aiken County Sheriff's Office, Aiken County EMS and the Department of Natural Resources.
"Sears puts on a National Safety Day every year, so we're here in support of that," said Willis Bowers from the Department of Natural Resources. "Today, we brought one of our patrol boats and patrol vehicle, so we can explain to people what we do on the water and on land as well."
In addition to learning about safety procedures, public service officials used the event as a way to increase their visibility in the community.
Former state trooper, and current Sears employee Daniel Turno alluded to children and adults becoming aware of the people who serve them.
"It's an excellent opportunity for adults and kids to put a face behind the badge and learn more about their local public safety officials," Turno said. "The kids had fun playing on the trucks and talking to the officers, and it was great to bring more awareness to National Fire Safety Month and give out tips so people can practice better safety habits."
Derrek Asberry is a beat reporter with the Aiken Standard news team and joined the paper in June. He is originally from Vidalia, Ga., and graduated from Georgia Southern University with a journalism degree in May 2012.

To The Editor:
If you are like most Valley residents you are thinking more about tuning up your skis or snow machines than you are thinking about Little League baseball. Believe it or not there is months' worth of planning that enables the Mad River Valley Little League (MRVLL) season to go on without a hitch and some of that planning starts in the fall.
We had a great year this past spring. While our numbers for the higher levels of play were a bit down we still were able to field two successful All-Stars teams with the 11 to 12 years olds advancing farther than they have in years. Our T-ball and farm league levels were about where they usually are providing a fun season for the 5 to 8 year olds.
Our coaches are on the frontlines during the season supplying the leadership and commitment each of our players need to improve and have fun. Parent volunteers play a huge role in the success of the league by weeding, raking and hauling dirt prior to opening day to make our fields some of the best in our district. They also put in time working shifts in the snack shack and most important of all they are there to cheer on all of our kids.
MRVLL is a registered nonprofit organization run by a board of directors. The board is responsible for keeping our charter with the national Little League organization up to date, for organizing coaches, registering players, ordering uniforms and playing equipment, scheduling games and umpires, organizing all volunteers for the snack shack and developing the fundraising raffle among much, much more. We are looking for people willing to join the board and help sustain what has been an integral part of the lives of many Valley kids for decades – Little League baseball.
Board members typically meet once per month during the winter months and twice per month or more in the couple of months leading up to opening day. On October 10, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Bongiorno's Restaurant, we will be holding our annual meeting open to all as required by the National LL. Please come by to chat with our current members if you are interested in joining the board or just interested in MRVLL.
This year we will be losing at least two members of the board so if we are to continue the success of this great league it is crucial to find replacements. Additional members are also desired to help spread out the workload. Feel free to contact any of the current members of the board to find out more.
MRVLL Board of Directors
Logan Cooke, Hillary (Buny) Downing, Erika Graham, Lisa Palmer, Melissa Joslin, Seth Joslin,
Kelly Reagan and Chris Zschau

The United States of Pizza: Iowa
It's time to give you a taste of Iowa's pizza options. The Hawkeye State has a wealth of pizzerias, many of which have been around for generations. College town pizza joints abound, some where the atmosphere is more memorable than the slices, but artisan pies are also being made in Des Moines (and Decorah). Be warned: it's a land of rather creative pizza toppings. Half-taco, half sauerkraut pie, anyone? More

Science Matters
Clearing the Air
The Impact of EPA's Landmark Health Assessment on "Passive Smoking"
A recent segment on the daytime talk show "Ellen" featured a comical look back at old advertisements. One example to flash across the television revealed a confident looking doctor leaning back in his chair with a freshly lit cigarette in his hand. The studio audience roared with laughter as the host read aloud the screaming headline below the image: "According to a Recent Nationwide Survey: More Doctors Smoke Camels than Any Other Cigarette."
A quick internet search of vintage smoking ads reveals a host of such claims. In addition to smiling babies, Ronald Reagan, and Santa Claus, science and statistics were common themes enlisted to help consumers choose one brand of smokes over another.
Of course, it wasn't until real science began to investigate the health effects of smoking that the smartest choice—not to smoke at all—was revealed.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of a landmark EPA health assessment, Respiratory Health Effects of Passive Smoking: Lung Cancer and Other Disorders, that put much of that science into perspective. The assessment concluded that tobacco smoke not only presented risks to the health of smokers but also to those around them: "Based on the weight of available scientific evidence, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has concluded that widespread exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) in the United States presents a serious and substantial public health impact."
The science behind the assessment provided the basis and support to health officials and others as they moved to protect people from tobacco smoke in public places. The impacts have been far-reaching, leading to healthier air, particularly indoors, for millions of people.
"EPA's study was a major catalyst for taking action to protect everyone, especially kids, from tobacco smoke. The impact has been healthier kids, healthier parents, healthier workers, and an awareness that the science is clear: if you smoke around kids and other non-smokers, you threaten and endanger their health," says Matthew L. Myers, President of the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids.
To develop the health assessment, EPA critically reviewed a wealth of existing data from previous studies exploring the potential health effects of what is called "environmental tobacco smoke," or the secondhand smoke that nonsmokers were exposed to by sharing space with those who smoked.
The bulk of that work began to come to light in 1986, when the National Research Council (NRC) and the Surgeon General of the U.S. Public Health Service released independent studies on the health effects of exposure to secondhand smoke. Both reports concluded that exposure to secondhand smoke can cause lung cancer in adult nonsmokers and can lead to increased frequency of respiratory problems, including infections and reduced lung function.
The reports sparked interest by EPA officials, including those looking at studies to better understand questions about air pollution, particularly indoors. Because people spend some 90 percent of their time indoors, exposure to air pollutants inside buildings is significantly higher than it is outdoors. Agency scientists and engineers work to advance the understanding of indoor air quality and to find ways to reduce people's exposure to air pollutants in offices, homes, schools, and other places where people work and play. EPA decided to conduct its own health assessment on secondhand smoke largely because of broad concerns about indoor air quality.
A wealth of additional studies by different independent organizations followed the release of the reports by NRC and the Surgeon General, more than doubling the size of the database EPA researchers were able to consider when they conducted their own health assessment. For that work, Agency scientists critically reviewed the existing database on the respiratory health effects of passive smoking (e.g. inhaling secondhand smoke) to develop a hazard assessment and make quantitative estimates of the public health impacts for lung cancer and various other respiratory diseases.
EPA researchers based their conclusions on an analysis of all the available data at the time, including more than 30 human epidemiological studies looking specifically at passive smoking as well as information on active or direct smoking. In addition, they considered animal data, biological measurements of human uptake of tobacco smoke components, and other available data.
In the end, the assessment concluded that secondhand smoke is a human carcinogen, responsible for 3,000 lung cancer deaths annually in the U.S. The assessment also concluded that infants and young children were especially sensitive to secondhand smoke exposure. Secondhand smoke exposure to infants and young children led to increased risk of respiratory infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia, lower lung function, and additional episodes and increased severity of symptoms in children with asthma.
The EPA study provided the science needed for Agency officials and others across the nation to conclude that secondhand smoke is a preventable health risk.
Even after 20 years, the impact of this work can be seen, and felt, every time a child or an adult is protected from secondhand tobacco smoke. Thousands of lives have been saved, millions of children are healthier, and people across the country, and even in other countries, enjoy smoke-free workplaces and homes.
"The impact of EPA's landmark study can't be underestimated. It provided the science that sparked a revolution in how people view the hazards of secondhand smoke, which has led to smoke-free policies across this country and around the world. Millions of people are protected and ultimately millions of lives will be saved," says Albert A. Rizzo MD, Chair of the American Lung Association Board of Directors.

The Fort Dorchester basketball teams split their games with Stratford Tuesday.
The Lady Patriots cruised to a 51-18 win to improve to 2-5 on the season while the Lady Knights dropped to 2-5. Fort Dorchester had a strong start and then put the game away early in the second half. The Lady Patriots went up 34-10 with 3:60 remaining in the third period and held a 42-13 lead by the periods end.
We did a good job boxing out tonight and we rebounded well, Fort Dorchester coach Randall Slawson said. Im pleased with the direction we are going. We are slowly getting better and showing we can be a strong defensive team. A lot of our points tonight came as a result of the pressure we put on them and the things we did on the defensive end.
Erika Cobb led all scorers with 10 points. Briana Chisolm and London Sharper both added eight points for the Lady Patriots while Leah Robinson and Erika Martin both added six points. Ashlee Compton, Lauren Inabine-Mitchell, Territta Jones, Taigea Griffen-Pringle, Shamari Jones, and Jazzma Cheeks also scored for Fort Dorchester.
McKenzie Yon led Stratford with seven points.
The Fort Dorchester boys fell 62-47 to Stratford. The Knights improved to 7-3 on the season while the Patriots dropped to 4-3.
Fort Dorchesters Demariez Moorer scored 10 of his game-high 20 points in the first period as the Patriots took an 18-12 lead into the second. Then Stratford picked up its pace and made several buckets on breaks to outscore the Fort 13-4 in the next eight minutes.
The Knights cushioned their three-point lead in the second half. Stratfords TeAndre Hansley hit two shots from behind the arc in the third period and Demetre Rivers hit one of his two 3s on the evening in the period as the Knights took a 43-32 advantage into the final period.
The Patriots battled in the fourth and had a pair of three-pointers from Moorer and one from Eric Heyward but were only able to pull within eight points of the Knights, who did a good job moving the ball inside in the final eight minutes.
Stratford had three players score in double digits. Hansley led the team with 17 points while Rivers added 12 and Markel Epps contributed 10.
Heyward added nine points to Moorers 20 while both Thad Middleton and Baptiste Staggers finished with eight points.

text: I read in a pregnancy book by Sheila Kitzinger that suffering from migraine is a risk factor to develop pre-eclampsia. Is that true?? I had (probably mild) PE in my first pregnancy, blood pressure around 140/90, 150/100 from week 36, no protein in the urine, no edema. Baby was born in a very fit state after induction and cesarean in week 38+5, weighing 2900g (normal in our family). Now, 15 years later at 39, I'm thinking of getting pregnant again. My internist diagnosed labile hypertension (around 135/90), said I don't need medication at this point and is optimistic. I'm of normal weight and have no other medical conditions. But I have migraines on and off, not too bad, but a few times per month. Is there a connection between migraines and PE?
