Preventative measures are the best way to protect a vulnerable equine inventory.
There have been 30 confirmed positives, and two suspected cases, of Eastern equine encephalitis this summer in the state of South Carolina.
The number of cases of EEE continues to be prevalent, as there were seven cases diagnosed during the five day period from Aug. 5 to 9, and five more during the past week, said Dr. Adam Eichelberger, Clemson University director of animal health programs. The first positive confirmed case of West Nile Virus was diagnosed this past week in Lancaster County. There haven't been any confirmed positive cases of either EEE or WNV in Aiken County.
However, there are ways horse owners can preclude their horse from being diagnosed with the vector-borne pathogen, which is usually 90-95 percent fatal.
Vaccinations and booster shots are critical in maintaining the best protection, said Eichelberger.
"Preventative vaccines are very effective," said Eichelberger. "Horses that have never been vaccinated or have an unknown vaccine history will have to be boostered four to six weeks after the first vaccine. The series of injections is required to be effective and protective. In South Carolina, we recommend that horses are vaccinated twice yearly (every six months) for Eastern-Western equine encephalomyelitis and West Nile virus. These vaccines usually come in single doses or multiple combinations known at EWT, EWT/WN or EWT/FR. The 'T' in the abbreviation is short for tetanus, which is also a very important vaccine for horses."
Mosquito prevention plays a critical role in preventing the disease, said Eichelberger. Eastern equine encephalitis is spread by infected mosquitoes.
"Horses that are sick with EEE, don't get sick from other horses that have EEE," said Eichelbeger. "They get sick from mosquitoes that are infected with EEE."
If a horse owner suspects their horse may be infected with Eastern equine encephalitis, they should contact their local veterinarian and make an appointment for evaluation and treatment, said Eichelberger.
There are clinical signs horse owners should be aware of, if they suspect their horse may be infected with the virus. Symptoms can include a change in the way a horse presents itself, loss of appetite, depression, lethargy, severe fever, acting out of the ordinary, incoordination, inability to swallow and drooling, said Eichelberger.
The incubation of the disease can be as short as one week but as long as three weeks.
"Encephalitis means inflammation in the central nervous system, basically the horse's brain is inflamed," said Eichelberger. "Inflammation of the brain leads to the horse becoming neurologic. Horses initially febrile (elevated temperature) often becoming depressed or sluggish. Another name for EEE is sleeping sickness."
Horses infected with the virus should be isolated, said Eichelberger.
"Horses should be approached with extreme caution because of concerns of large unstable animals falling on people, animals or structures," said Eichelberger.

Just learned about this contest. I've followed iMore (TIPB) forever. I look forward to the shows, there's always something useful.
Would love to get a new iphone for my son who is such a good kid given that he has to deal with a medical disease that requires him to be homeschooled compounded by a life-threatening allergies to all dairy.
Been an android user for about 2years now. Would like to switch to IOS this time. Android's becoming boring already..
Yes please!! Been loving this blog since I got my first iPhone - a 4 - when it first came out and I still have it now, could do with an upgrade . :)

Imore is the best site....i love to win an iphone5 hoping..
I discovered your website from listening to Rush Limbaugh one afternoon, checked your site out, and really love it. A few days later, I learned the terminal command that allowed me to rid my new retina MBP of the annoying delayed wake from sleep deal.

Being invited to enter is a real treat, I only wish I had known earlier in the month so I could comment more. Enjoy your Monday and thanks again!
This is my comment amongst all my other comments
Just kidding. Seriously, I'm entering, but to be honest, I don't have the time to post a lot. I do read the site (and peruse the comments section), but with my full time job I usually don't have the chance to write up nice comments/opinions.
I did not win the $300+ million in Powerball this weekend. So I guess I'll have to settle for entering this contest. ;)
Would love to win an iPhone 5 which would go right to me wife as her first smart phone ever. If I don't win, I am buying her one at upgrade time in June, but it sure would be nice to win one and put that saved money towards a Mophie for her and some other awesome accessories that she will want to purchase from the iMore store!!!!!!

IMore the best site ever. This iPhone is going to be mine. Thanks iMore keep it up!
I am interested in this contest... Thank you for such an awesome page!
Since it likely won't be me, let me just say Congratulations to whoever wins. No doubt the 5 is an amazing device, wife is eligible for an upgrade in May, I know she is looking at the 5 as one of her devices, though have no idea which way she will end up going in her phone decision. I just pay for the phone, let her choose her own device, unless she wins one.
I'm in. Not a spammer here. Don't comment much but imore is my top news source for Apple and we are a 3 iPhone, 2 ipad minis, MacBook Air house.
This would be great, my girlfriend needs a new iPhone so she doesn't go to the other side and get the new galaxy.
Just some feedback. Not sure if the rest of you encountered this. I'm new here. I downloaded the iMore app. Couldn't find a way to register using the app so I came back to my desktop to register. No problem there aside from the antiquated use of unique usernames. But then I came back to the app and couldn't log in. Apparently, after registering you need to go back to imore.com and click the sign in link since the registration process is actually for mobile nations. This is not very intuitive in my opinion.
I want a free iPhone!!
In to win
I always come here to get news about apple mobile products, always up-to-date and always a lot of information. Having contest like this is just totally amazing, no other site gives us a chance to get a iphone for free… anyway thx and continue the good work.

I should have register months and months ago ... damn it... I leave the app and/or the site open and come back to it many times a day + l the great posts, blogs info, shows etc ... Macbreak, and all that's Twiit Iphone/Pad related (that I usuallly follow through pod cast) but Its hard to keep up with every single bit. Regardless of the contest thanks for all the Iknowledge you share with all of us. But if you can ... gear me up with a 5! (since I have a 4s I was waiting for whatever other Iphone comes out next but I wouldn't spit on an Iphone5!)
I would love one please!
Could use one to replace my 4!
And here's to another chance at winning an awesome gift from the folks over at iMore! :-)
Would be really awesome to win
if it's free, it's for MEEEE !!!
Free iPhone!
I Wish To Win This iPhone , So I Can Develop Apps For iPhone :D
i would love to get a new iPhone in black color!
Great contest. I check for the latest news a few times on iMore.
I love the new app it's very easy to catch up on my apple news
Still not quite at 400 people, so the odds are still wonderful. Even just the opportunity to win an iPhone 5 is amazing! Without even owning an iPhone 5, months ago, I began acquiring accessories for my 'future' iPhone 5. I kickstarted the AL13 Premium UltraThin Aerospace Aluminum Bumper and I ordered a GelsSkin 'motherboard' for even more protection. All I need is the iPhone 5! My discounted upgrade through AT&T is still months away so this would be the icing on the cake.
I've been following this site for awhile now reading all the news on the new iPad that should be launched soon. Saw the contest so I figured I'd enter. Thanks imore!
I'd like to win
iMore is the only iPhone subject dedicated app that I have downloaded on my iPhone. The tutorials/how-to sections are really a boon to those of us who want to get the most out of our iOS experience. Thank You for all that you do!
Thanks for all the fish!
Such an awesome app!! Would love to win the new iPhone.. hahaha
Meeee! I alwaysdreaming about getting an Iphone I never had one. Because It is too expensive. Please pick mee! :((
Cinco por favor!!
Sign me up! I wanna play too!
i phone very useful for life long so it is the best in the world
Excellent site! Very informative!
Thanks a lot for the amazing give away! I've never used an apple product though, I still love em! :)
I am always adding great comments because iMore(TIPB) is awesome and you can clearly only leave great comments. Send me that iPhone.
It was the best of time, it was the worst of times...and what I mean by that is, my wife once had an iPhone that she was at peace with but she bought into the Android hype and now she is at war...with her phone! Please help me restore the PEACE! This paltry novel has gone on waaaay to long!
Greetings from Serbia!
Apple products are so rare in our country, rarer than UFO. You can change it for the better, send it over.
Man, ... I really need an iPhone ... REALLY!! I promise to look after him. :-)
Excellent site, ... all the best!
I would love to win.... please please please . I've been trying to win an iPhone or iPad for the longest
As an Android user looking for greener pastures I would love to give the iPhone 5 a try as I am currently torn between that and a Z10, both phones look pretty nice, but I am leaning (slightly) to the Z10 as it appears to be a better platform for getting things done. A free iPhone would obviously swing the balance in favour of an iDevice...
I hope I win, it would be fantastic!
The suspense is killing me! Who's gonna win???? But on a light note, I've actually learned a bunch of things about my iPhone 4s over these past 2+ week! iMore has defiantly made my top 10 bookmarked sites.
Man i would love this
please de do ....please pick me for iphone 5...want v.badly
I would love to win. Omg I love u imore u guys seriously rock ;)
I'd sure be happy if I won this iPhone. :D
I'd like to win an iPhone 5 32GB, in white. But a 16GB one would be sufficient too, as I don't have a lot of apps, music, or other stuff. Right now I have no smartphone at all since my Android phone got destroyed at work a couple of weeks ago (long, bizarre story there), and I'm currently reduced to using an old Samsung flip phone as my backup. So I could really use a new device. I'm on T-Mobile USA, so on the off-chance that I should win, all I ask is that it be a GSM iPhone so I could use it on T-Mo.
And thank you, iMore, for this site and all the Apple-related news and technical info you provide (I've been reading it since it was called "The iPhone Blog").
really a good site for i phones specially android wow man i like it very muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
i phone 5 man its the phone whole world wants and this contest take the hearts of millionsssssssss
I would also like to enter said contest!
Love the new iPhone. Have tried the evil empire (android) but always find myself loving iOS so much more
I love the new iPhone. I've tried other devices with another operating system but nothing compares to ios
hope to win luck by chance
Still reading iMore on an iPhone 4! Help me out iMore.
Ok. I'm getting ready to make the switch back to iPhone from android. I miss the platform and hate the android fragmentation. I need a new iPhone!
I want the iphone 5 :D
Since moving off of BlackBerry after 6 long years I don't regret the move one bit to an iPhone. The quality and app selection will meet anyone's fancy, but honestly without iMore I will admit (much like CrackBerry was for me) I would be a tad lost on the numerous news coverage. It's great to have a central news hub to go to consistently and the iMore app helps to close that gap.
Good morning fellow contestants and good morning iMore! Will the iPhone 5 contest reach 500 people??? Stick around and find out people!
One proposal for the new iPhone: It needs to be "radically new," of course, and as such should have a new name. I think that 5 nice, round number, and it must stop!
Oh yes, I forgot. I recommend "humanoid" for the name of the new iPhone. A synonym for the word android but better! /:-)
Wow! You guys rock it hardcore with these giveaways! I would love to enter this. (Better late than never) Big fan of the site and all the editors. iMore has become THE go to site for me on everything Apple. Always love to hear the podcasts and hear your insights into apps, reviews, news, rumors, how-tos, and all the other techie related material. Keep up the great work!
Wow! iMore, you guys & gals rock it hardcore! I would love to enter this contest (better late than never).

Iphone's much better than Samsung, EVER!
I'm not sure that this competition is open worldwide, but I will not miss the chance to win such a device.
Thank you!
Can't lie, I stumbled this site on stumble. Saw the iPhone contest and was like "heck yeah!".

Little Dixie Community Action Agency, Inc. hosted a luncheon on Friday, November 2nd, to honor many Pushmataha County residents who participate in the agency's Retired Senior Volunteer Program. Little Dixie's Executive Director, Brenda Needham, said: "This annual event is the least we can do to recognize these men and women volunteers who give so freely of their time to provide valuable services to their communities. Without them, it would be difficult if not impossible for many organizations to remain in operation. These volunteers make it possible for residents and others to enjoy many places including nutrition centers, libraries, museums, gift shops, food banks and much more. This kind of community dedication and loyalty is what makes Southeast Oklahoma a great place to live." event featuring "A Blast from the Past" theme complete with life sized cardboard cut-outs of Marilyn Monroe, James Dean and Elvis Presley certainly resonated with many of the guests of honor. Volunteers enjoyed a barbecue chicken lunch with a variety of side dishes prepared by RSVP staff. Each volunteer also received Recognition Citations from Senator Jerry Ellis and Representative R.C. Pruett. Other "perks" included door prizes donated by many local businesses. The event was well attended and included dignitaries, Senator Jerry Ellis, Representative R.C. Pruett, Little Dixie Board Members: Mike Brittingham (Pushmataha County Commissioner) and Chuck Darby (Chair of the RSVP Advisory Committee), and most importantly, approximately 50 Pushmataha County Senior Volunteers. RSVP Program Director, Barbara Moffitt spoke at the event, expressing her gratitude for all the volunteers. She stated: "I have the greatest job in the world that allows me to work with the most caring individuals. They set an example for all of us. I can't say enough to express how valuable you are, not only to me and the Little Dixie RSVP Program, but also to your communities." A similar event was held in Choctaw County the week before and the McCurtain County recognition is scheduled for the ninth of November. To find out more about Little Dixie's RSVP program, please contact Barbara Moffitt, RSVP Program Director or Barbara Beesley, RSVP Program Coordinator at 500 East Rosewood in Hugo or by calling 580-326-5201 or by visiting Little Dixie's website at www.littledixie.org

Catfish Reunion Show: Nev Schulman Gives Season 1 Update on Kya & Dani – Exclusive
Ever wondered what happened after the cameras turned off on MTV's Catfish: The TV Show? Tonight, Catfish: The Reunion Show brings together the most memorable catfishers and their catfishees for a sit-down with stars Nev Shulman, Max Joseph and MTV's Suchin Pak.
"You can expect to see some smiles and some really warm and wonderful hellos," Nev told Wetpaint Entertainment at Viacom's Social Media Week panel in New York City. "But naturally, there were some people on the show who chose to discontinue their communication after the episode. There are still some sour, hard feelings."
However, there's one couple that didn't make it to the reunion special. We got the scoop from series star Nev on the relationship status of one of our favorite couples from Season 1. Prepare to be heartbroken, Catfish fans.
When Catfish: The Reunion Show airs, Kya and Alyx won't be present. The couple unfortunately split after Max's cameras stopped rolling.
You probably recall when Kya first met "Alyx" online, she used a fake name and fake pictures. She later told him the truth, and Alyx forgave her. Nev helped Kya finally meet Alyx, who actually turned out to be a transgender man named Dani. Despite the lie, Kya accepted Dani, and things seemed to be going strong between the couple at the end of the episode.
"The important thing to remember, and this is why I'm so happy to be doing this show, is even when two people are who they say they are, it doesn't change the fact that they still have their own lives, and the fantasy of an online relationship, which can exists between two people who are thousands of miles away, doesn't necessarily translate into a real-life relationship," explained Nev.
"Real-life relationships are tough, and long distance relationships are even tougher," he added. "Kya and Dani were a perfect example. Even though they fell in love, the physical hurdles and barriers that separated them were just too great to maintain a relationship. They're still really great friends."
But one colorful character who will be on tonight's reunion is Chelsea, whose trickery in the Season 1 pilot stunned viewers and helped set the tone for the entire series.
"I probably stayed in touch with Chelsea the most." Nev said. "I've been impressed with her transformation. She went from being a, I think, selfish, unhappy, closeted lesbian to a really warm and helpful and honest person who is changing lives. I think that's great."
Tune into Catfish: The Reunion Show on Monday, February 25 at 11 p.m. ET on MTV.

Think you're the only one with a guy who doesn't want to cuddle after sex or who immediately heads to the kitchen for a sandwich? You're not alone. These women can top that—and then some.SEE MORE
Strange guy behavior: He doused himself in my perfume.Spraying your pillow with your man's cologne or sleeping in his T-shirt because it smells delicious isn't that uncommon. But when your guy jumps out of bed after a steamy sex session and makes a beeline for your bathroom vanity, well, that kinda is. Just ask 25-year-old Tara, who says a guy she was with sprayed himself with her body splash—the same one she was wearing at the time. I wanted to tell him, "Next time, let's just cuddle; you can smell my neck, OK?" she says.
Strange guy behavior: He started singing. Opera."As soon as we were done, this guy would lie beside me and we'd be enjoying a few moments of precious silence, until out of nowhere he'd launch into 'La Donna e Mobile,'" says Christina, 26, of Bloomfield, New Jersey. "Even worse, he'd sing operatic versions of pop tunes like Britney Spears' 'Oops, I Did It Again.'"
Strange guy behavior: He ate stinky cheese."My guy whipped the sheets off and bounded into the kitchen," says Lilly, 29, of Brooklyn. "I thought he'd return with a bottle of water or a container of cut melon. The next thing I knew, he plopped into bed with a block of smelly aged cheese and a log of Italian meat—that's right, a log. It gets worse: He was not shameless about eating his antipasto in front of me. Olive juice dripped down his arm as he popped the little green balls in to his mouth. Needless to say, he smelled like a deli, so I got dressed and headed home to my apartment."
Strange guy behavior: He watched a classic chick show.We totally get falling asleep while watching TV post-sex, but this is a whole different story: "This guy was really hell-bent on watching the Golden Girls one night after we 69'd," says Jaz, 28, of Hollywood, California.
Photo: Everett Collection
Strange guy behavior: He shopped around for a dentist.Yes, we're all busy. We have jobs, kids, bills to pay and groceries to buy. Still, there's no need to return to personal matters immediately after doing it, when you're still sweaty and naked with your shoulders touching your partner. "In bed, postcoital, a guy googled 'root canal' on his BlackBerry," says Erin, 31, of New York City. "I took it very personally that he would return to thinking about himself and his oral hygiene so immediately after we'd made love."
Strange guy behavior: He turns on the 'toons.Cartoons can be sexy. Think Lady and the Tramp and that famous scene where their lips meet for a kiss over a string of spaghetti. What's not sexy? This: "My man would turn on a South Park DVD and morph into that creepy, roly-poly character Cartman. He'd do the voice and kiss me. Ew, what a turn-off," says Nikki, 24, of Winchester, Massachusetts.
Photo: Everett Collection
Strange guy behavior: He calls in the cats.Animal lovers, don't take this personally, but there is a time and a place to snuggle with your pet, and just after getting busy isn't it. "My husband is notorious for throwing open the bedroom door as soon as we're done and inviting our three kitties to crawl into bed with us," says Jeanne, 27, of Callicoon Center, New York. "Ever have cat hair stick to your sweaty body? Then you get where this is going."
Strange guy behavior: He blows on you.Keeping up with affection after sex is a total turn-on—this, however, is just confusing: "He started blowing on my stomach like there was a piece of lint in my belly button or like I was a little kid he was coaxing to laugh. It freaked me out," says Stefanie, 22, of Harrisonburg, Virginia.

Seven years ago this weekend, I was 26 weeks pregnant. Admitted emergently to the hospital after a visit to the employee health clinic revealed my blood pressure to be 220/140 and dipping 4+ protein. The docs told me the baby would be born any day now and gave him only a 50/50 shot of surviving without death or major delay. Thank the Lord, I responded reasonably well to bed rest and was able to hold out 12 days to make it to 28 weeks. Allan was born weighing 2 lbs 6 oz and 15 inches long. He spent a long 96 days in the hospital due to complications but beat all the odds recited today.
In many ways, this anniversary is harder psychologically on me than his actual birthday (October 2nd). He will be 7 and is in the big countdown to his birthday so of course he talks about it a lot. I remember the fear and anxiety and anger of not knowing and worrying about my baby.
To those out there suffering from this horrible disease and playing the waiting game... there is hope. Take it one day at a time. It's the only way you stay sane.
Blessings to all,

Exposure to different experiences at Lake Superior State University helped me to learn and decide what I wanted to do with my life. There were many opportunities to help my learning experience, including day and weekend trips to various geological sites. It wasn't all travel though; there was lots of hands-on experience that helped demonstrate what we learned in lectures.

After two decades of research, ITS is getting into its stride
Colin Sowman gets the global view on how ITS has shaped the way we travel today and what will shape the way we travel tomorrow. Over the past two decades the scope and spread of intelligent transport systems has grown and diversified to encompass all modes of travel while at the same time integrating and consolidating. Two decades ago the idea of detecting cyclists or pedestrians may have been...
Temporary CCTV poses more challenges than permanent installations
Long-term roadworks pose particular problems for temporary surveillance installations. Converting the hard shoulder to a running lane, either full- or part-time, is the UK Highways Agency's solution to ease motorway congestion. This is leading to a number of long-term projects where large stretches of the hard shoulder are closed off by temporary concrete barriers and during these roadwork...

The safety of workers during road closures and working alongside, or above, live lanes is becoming an automated process. Ten workers suffered major injuries while working on or near motorways and major A roads in England in 2013, and between 2009 and 2013 eight had been killed. It was against that background that the first commercial application Safelane, the automated traffic management...

One of the most annoying things about Android's built-in browser was the lack of support for SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics). Android's browser was the most popular mobile browser that didn't support SVG and that was surprising, considering Google's push for better web apps.
Ariya Hidayat tried to see if Honeycomb's browser can handle SVG files and the good news is that the answer is affirmative. Hopefully, the next Android release for smartphones will include this feature.

By Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander on Apr 3 2014, 9:56p
If you take a look at the World Series of Fighting 9 salaries, you'll notice that welterweight Josh Burkman did not receive a win bonus for his 1st round KO of Tyler Stinson. Instead, he was given $25,000 to show, and was the only winning fighter on the card without any win bonus. Today, Burkman stated on Twitter that he wants to head somewhere else, and has asked for WSOF to cut him loose:

John H. Gladney, 1922-2011
The former SLU chairman of otolaryngology was a civil rights advocate in SLU's School of Medicine and the community.
John H. Gladney, M.D., professor emeritus of otolaryngology at Saint Louis University, passed away on Nov. 26, 2011. He was 89.
|John H. Gladney, M.D.
Dr. Gladney practiced medicine in St. Louis for 37 years as a private physician and faculty member at Saint Louis University.
He was a trailblazer, both in the field of otolaryngology and at SLU. Dr. Gladney was one of the first African American otolaryngologists in the U.S. post-WW II, the first African American to lead a department of otolaryngology in the country, and the first African American chair of a basic science clinical department at Saint Louis University School of Medicine.
According to Mark Varvares, M.D., the Donald and Marlene Jerome Endowed Chair in Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Dr. Gladney fought prejudice to obtain proper education and medical training in the segregated South, and to practice in the Midwest. He found support at Saint Louis University, where he became an advocate for under-represented minorities.
His legacy lives on through the Gladney Diversity Award, an annual award given to fourth-year medical students who have contributed to the promotion and advancement of diversity within the SLU School of Medicine.
"Dr. Gladney has been a mentor and role model for so many community physicians of many cultures, black and white. He will be greatly missed for his wonderful personality, academic achievements and influences on Saint Louis University and the medical community as a whole," said Michael Railey, M.D., associate dean multicultural affairs at Saint Louis University.
Dr. Gladney was best known for his special interest in hearing loss in children and adults. With funding from the St. Louis affiliate of the American Diabetes Association, Dr. Gladney studied the effect diabetes had on the inner ear. In 1998, he established the Comprehensive Sinus Clinic at SLU, which brings together physicians from otolaryngology, allergy and immunology to diagnose and treat sinusitis.
"Dr. Gladney was very clear about the role of research in clinical medicine and had a great intellectually inquisitive approach to everything he encountered clinically," Varvares said.
Dr. Gladney had a particular passion for the community's youngest citizens. He worked closely in the African American community to properly diagnose children with hearing disorders who had been misdiagnosed with behavioral disorders.
In a St. Louis American article dated Sept. 5, 1991, Dr. Gladney said, "If a child has trouble comprehending in school and their attention span is short, it doesn't mean that child is slow or restless. Hearing is the prerequisite for developing language communication and when your hearing is impaired your ability to understand and pay attention is thrown off balance."
In 1991, the St. Louis American honored Dr. Gladney with the first Stellar Achievement Award, which recognizes service to the community, particularly within the education field.
Dr. Gladney served as president of the Saint Louis University Hospital medical staff in 1970, as well as president of the St. Louis ENT Club (1978) and the Missouri ENT Association (1977-79).
He received a bachelor of arts from Talladega College in Alabama, and his medical degree from Meharry Medical College in Tennessee. He enrolled in the Army Specialized Training Program to pay for medical school training and later served in the Korean War, receiving a commission as captain in the U.S. Air Force.
Dr. Gladney retired from medical practice in 1993. Following retirement he served as a tutor and mentor at Laclede Elementary School and was a leader in his church.
"Dr. Gladney will be remembered as an incredibly kind, generous, gentle man, a great friend to all who knew him and a great patriarch to his family," Varvares said.
Visitation will be held from noon until 2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 3, and will be followed by a memorial service at Pilgrim Congregational Church, 826 Union Blvd.
Dr. Gladney is survived by his wife of 67 years, Clarice; two daughters, Connie Agard and Judy Gladney; sister, Kathryn Ellis; five grandchildren and seven great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents John and Emma, and son, John Jr.

And very nice job BTW, AnnaMarie.
AnnaMarie, That is simply stunning!
I'm finished! With an hour to spare. I only took a picture of this last one, the other two are already at school, and I didn't get pics of them. But they were all similar.

Nice job!
Great job Tina.
Okay, I made a safety bracelet which turned out quite cute. Pinterest has some excellent examples -- some pretty, some butt ugly but all fabulous!
And, the thing that has grabbed my ADHD attention for the moment is paper beads. I am making paper beads. For some reason, I am loving this. hahaha. I have no idea what I'm going to do with the paper beads. Maybe sell them to Irwin Mainway to sell as Big Bag O'Paper Beads. And if you know what I'm referring to without Googling, you are my friend.
I love paper beads! They are awesome. Fun to make, fun to wear. I've only made a basic shape, but I found a template (on Pinterest, natch) for all different shapes that I want to use soon. Lemme see if I can get the linky ... Ah, here it is: http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/project...dsinstructions.

The Mary Persons boys and girls both won, and Pike County was third and Monticello was fourth.
"It was some of the most miserable running conditions you can imagine, and it showed in our times," Reese said. "One of the positives was Jaylin Wright throwing a personal best of 116 feet, 9 inches in the discus. I tell the kids all the time we can only worry about what we can control and we have no control over the weather, so we still have to come out and perform at the same level regardless of what the conditions are."
Wright was second in the discus to Pike's Cody Fine, who had a throw of 122 feet.
Alfred Hunter gave the Jones County boys their only win, going 36 feet, 3 inches in the triple jump. Jarmal Smith was third at 34-2.5.

For the past year, S.C. National Guard Maj. Dwight Bradham Jr. of Aiken taught farmers how to improve their knowledge bases and find new markets – an experience he'll never forget in the Helmand Province in Afghanistan.
Bradham and other members of his team arrived in Columbia Saturday, where he was greeted joyously by his wife Heather and young daughters, Emma, 10, and Isabella, 2.
He joined the National Guard at 17 and a few years later began what is now 27 years active duty. His first deployment took him to Iraq as a member of the Signal Office of the 114th Signal Company out of Kansas. The unit was attached to the 122nd Engineer Battalion Charlie Company in Graniteville.
When Bradham learned about an agribusiness mission being formed in South Carolina in 2011, he couldn't pass it up. His father, Dwight Sr., and mother Ruth had been involved with farming before moving to Aiken in 1977, and their son had helped them as a young boy.
"I thought I would like the opportunity to serve," said Bradham, the team leader. "What we were looking at doing was supporting the people of Afghanistan and helping them improve their skills and their market linkage."
His team, which included security forces, was the first from South Carolina. A second team that left in January got substantial attention, because Michael Haley, the husband of Gov. Nikki Haley, is a member of that deployment. Bradham's team was the size of a detachment element. The guardsmen had been intrigued from the start when they realized the latitude in the province is virtually the same as South Carolina's.
"The crop development was similar – cotton, corn, small amounts of tobacco and other vegetables," Bradham said. "I also tasted some of the sweetest melons I've had in my life."
The devastating turmoil in Afghanistan goes far beyond the past decade. The country was overrun by Soviet-led Afghan forces in the last 1970s. Previously, farmers had links to other markets, among them Pakistan, Iran, other area in the Middle East and parts of China. For 30 years, Bradham said, the focus was not on growing markets. The farmers then and those of a new generation lost their knowledge and skill sets.
He found his experience of the past year enormously rewarding in that province. His team developed two training centers, and many guardsmen served essentially as extension agents. Through their efforts, they developed a link to the Kandahar Province. The Helmand farmers could sell their crops there for a higher price and provide economic stability for their families, especially for their sons without means of supporting themselves.
Ironically, Bradham learned before the deployment that the top military leadership in Afghanistan was skeptical of the need for the agribusiness unit's unique talents.
"By the end of the year," he said, "the senior general was saying, 'You guys have done a tremendous job. I want three more just like you.'"
Of course, the deployments nearly a decade apart required sacrifice on the part of Bradham and his family. Heather gave birth to Emma just four days before he left for Iraq. Isabelle was four months old when he deployed a second time.
"It's really good coming back and seeing them," Bradham said Sunday. "Since I got home yesterday, I haven't let them out of my sight."

Wind: 3 mph
By Kara Herlihy
Dental hygienist Marian Moore now occupies the school nurse's office on Fridays as part of the "Tooth Tutor" Program now available at Waitsfield Elementary School.
"Tooth Tutor" is a state-run program backed by the Vermont Department of Health as a "dental access program."
Moore spends most of the week working as a dental hygienist in South Burlington, while each Friday she takes the trek down to Waitsfield Elementary to teach students about the importance of brushing and flossing.
According to the Vermont Department of Health, "The Tooth Tutor also presents dental health education in the classroom using the Tooth Tutor curriculum. This gives students the opportunity to learn more about their teeth and their dental health."
Moore also helps school nurse Sue Dillon update dental records and information for each student's health file, which includes helping families find dentists for students who don't already have one.
According to the Vermont Department of Health, "The Tooth Tutor focuses on connecting children without dental homes to a dentist in their community. The Tooth Tutor acts as a liaison between the families and the community dentists."
"It's really good for families whose parents might not be able to get off work to take their children to the dentist," Moore said, adding "[the Tooth Tutor Program] is a great link to the dental community."
"The Tooth Tutor helps to troubleshoot barriers to dental care with families such as transportation, literacy, finances or lack of information. He or she also works with the dental offices, educating them about the barriers that these families face and helping to make it easier for appointments to be kept," reports the Vermont Department of Health.
"The goal of Vermont's Tooth Tutor program is to assure that every child has access to preventive, restorative and continuing care in a dental office. Schools choose to participate in the Tooth Tutor Program."
As of yet, Moore is not allowed to perform teeth cleanings because the Department of Health requires dentists to indirectly supervise.
Moore has already seen 10 students and currently approximately 120 Vermont schools participate in the Tooth Tutor Program, and the numbers keep growing.

Year of publication
- 1999 (1) (remove)
- 20
- Changes in the distribution of pre-government and post-government income in Germany 1973 - 1993 (1999)
- To sum up our findings we come to the following statements. - During the period from 1973 to 1993 inequality of the personal distribution of equivalent pre-government income increased to some extent, as was to be expected given the enormous rise in unemployment. - Inequality of post-government income also increased slightly, but was much lower than inequality of pre-government income due to the equalizing effect of the German tax and transfer system. - In 1993 inequality of pre-government income was higher, and inequality of post-government income was considerably lower in East Germany than in West Germany; the West German tax and transfer system that was transferred to East Germany after reunification - with some additional but temporary minimum regulations - seems to have had a stronger equalizing effect in the East than in the West. - A decomposition into three age groups, the young and the middle-aged group sub-divided further according to whether household members were affected by unemployment, showed that within-groups inequality explained by far more of overall inequality than between-groups inequality. - The relative positions of the two young groups as well as of the middle-aged group with unemployed members deteriorated with respect to their equivalent pre-government and post-government incomes. - During the first period with rising unemployment (1973 to 1978), the development of within-groups inequality and of between-groups inequality contributed to about the same extent to the increase of overall inequality of pre-government income. But this was fully compensated by the tax and transfer system as there were only a negligible change in inequality of equivalent net income and very slight effects of the (four) components of change which nearly compensated each other. - During the last period from 1988 to 1993 the equalizing effect of the German tax and transfer system seems to have weakened, at least in the western part of Germany. The increase in inequality of equivalent net income is mainly due to developments of within group inequalities.

Ferran Adrià: No Ordinary Guest
28 Oct 13
Simone Gie
If you put orange juice in a bowl, is it "soup"? Why not, if tomato puree in a glass is "juice", in a bowl is "soup", and in a smaller bowl is "sauce"? If you made spaghetti from shortbread dough would this still be pasta? Why would we question a chef that serves ready-to-eat foods but not one that buys in his flour? At what point do we define "pre-prepared"? Where does cuisine stop and culinary art begin?
Posing quasi-proverbial questions that challenged ideas on the very essence of food, Ferran Adrià, considered to be one of the world's greatest chefs, if not the most creative, visited the University of Gastronomic Sciences (UNISG) on Friday, October 25, seeking to open-up students' minds and confront pre-conceived ideas of gastronomy.
"Is this fruit?" he asked the packed hall of students, holding up an orange. "What is fruit? Is it what grows on trees? But then what about strawberries? Fruit is acidic, but then what about bananas? Is it what you eat at the end of a meal? But then what about duck a l'orange? I'm Ferran Adrià and I cannot define what fruit is." Adrià is recognized for a career of experimental cooking that probed the limits of gastronomy. "In order to keep creating, we need to go back to our childhoods, to learn things again from the beginning."
During his time as head chef of elBulli, the iconic restaurant on Spain's Costa Brava, it was ranked the best restaurant in the world five times by Restaurant magazine and awarded three Michelin stars. In 1980s, Adrià began experimenting with cuisine, forever changing elBulli's place in culinary history. It was Adrià - part chef, part chemist, part alchemist - that brought the world liquid olives, deconstructed martinis and culinary foam, now used by chefs around the world.
"There are certain names that will be noted in the history of gastronomy; Ferran Adrià is one of them," said Slow Food founder Carlo Petrini as he introduced him to the students. "Not just for what he has done, but for what he is about to do. Ferran is changing the paradigms of education and the relationship between cuisine and culture."
Adrià made the decision to close elBulli in 2011, at the height of its success. "I understood that success has an expiration date. One day you have to leave the podium to others... Even my own mother was tired of seeing me in the papers," he said. In its place, elBulli has been transformed into a Foundation, a gastronomic think-tank and center for culinary education. One of its main goals is to create an encyclopedia of gastronomy, to be presented in January 2014.
Adrià spent Friday visiting the UNISG grounds, chatting with students and staff, and meeting with the young chefs from the Academic Table, the university's project for a good, clean and fair cafeteria with regular guest chefs. Some of his dishes will feature on the Academic Table menu for the next few days. "The UNISG is a revolution in the gastronomic world," he said, "and Slow Food is a movement that is necessary."
His advice to students drew from the reflections of one who has achieved the highest levels of status and success. "For years at elBulli we were awarded all the most important prizes. But it wasn't prizes we were looking for; we wanted happiness. It was about passion, freedom and taking risks." Rather than setting out to become top celebrity chefs, he urged the students to pursue whatever it is that gives them fulfillment. "In anything you do, the most important thing is passion. It changes your life and it is what will make you happy."
