The Artist Says:
Every successful painting should have that indefinable 'something'; a quality that makes the viewer look twice, then ponder the image in wonderment. When it happens, when that elusive gets caught in paint, magic happens.

"Canyon Blues"
(c) S.J.W. Grogan 24x30 Oil on Canvas
If asked, most horse-crazy people can't remember ever not-being in love with the animals. California native S.J.W. Grogan is no different. She credits her love of horses as the reason she is an artist. "I loved horses so much, and couldn't have one for the longest time," she laughs at the memory "that I started drawing horses. It was my way of 'having' a horse even if just on paper. I had a lot of paper horses."
Grogan was in her teens when she went from pencil sketching to painting in oils, and colorized her equine obsession. By mid-teens, the artist finally got her first real horse, only to face another problem. The sole area to ride in her neighborhood, the Los Angeles suburb of Whittier, were the nearby oil fields. And the journey there usually became an adventure in itself as the route led through an industrial corridor filled with big rigs and heavy freight traffic. "Our horses were bullet-proof from all the noise and activity. Truckers would honk as we galloped down the dirt shoulders. My horse wouldn't even twitch an ear."
Today the artist doesn't have to brave congested highways and oil derricks to enjoy her horses. Grogan and her husband live in the High Desert area of the Western Mojave Desert, miles if not worlds away from where she grew up. In addition to having riding trails and untamed wilderness literally at her doorstep, there is another benefit to her location: a hundred-mile view of the Mojave Desert.
"We moved to Victorville right after we were married in the mid-eighties," she explains as her gaze picks out hazy blue mountains to the north. "Victorville hadn't then been discovered by developers, so it was still a sleepy little desert town. We were able to enjoy the area, and found the Mojave to be uniquely beautiful. The open space settles into your soul. And the silence . . . people don't know what quiet is anymore. The pace of modern life has destroyed quiet. The desert resurrects it."
It was then that the artist discovered the pleasure in painting the surrounding desert, capturing Joshua trees or abandoned shacks set against the backdrop of the San Gabriel mountains. For the first time in her art, horses took a backseat. She smiles at admitting that. "I think it's all the same, really. Horses represent power and freedom, and in many ways, so does the desert. Living here, you appreciate the ecology of the area. Talk about power: the sun, sky, wind; cold, heat�all demand respect. And through that respect, you start to understand its beauty."
Painting that beauty is Grogan's goal, made all the more challenging by her current palette in oils. She limits her materials to seven base colors: six double-primary hues (two reds, two yellows, two blues; all with different under-base colors), with white rounding out the seventh spot. Likening her palette to the simplicity of the desert, Grogan mixes all she needs from her base seven. "Artists much smarter than I am came up with this system, one of them being Rembrandt," she says. "I'm more than happy to use Rembrandt's tricks."
Finally pushed out of Victorville by the increasing population, Grogan and her husband relocated to Phelan where the rural�and horse-loving�lifestyle still reigns. "Most days the only thing that limits our view is the curve of the earth. We feel like we can touch mountains that are really a hundred miles away."
Grogan says that she and her husband love the desert so much that vacations are easy: they travel throughout the Southwest to fully enjoy the desert. An important part is the Grand Canyon, what the artist considers to be the heart of the region. Her paintings of the West Rim area capture majestic ramparts yet also focus on more intimate scenes of desert springs and winding trails. Those views, whether desert mountains under towering thunderheads or horses in various modes of equine repose, solidly occupy the artist's heart and paintings and her collector's homes.
"That is the most satisfying part of painting: when I succeed at capturing an image so well that a collector wants to purchase and live with it. Not only am I sharing my talent and vision, I'm sharing my love of my subjects with people who feel the same way. It doesn't get any better than that."
As long as, of course, there is always a view of the desert�and a horse, nearby.

The county's proposed tree bill balances common sense with the common good and, if amended, will help us all invest wisely in our most valuable form of natural capital: our trees.
Mature trees help filter water, clean the air, prevent erosion, provide cool shade in hot summers and conserve energy — all "goods and services" that contribute to a thriving economy and to our well-being.
Right now, we often bulldoze away trees and spend down this valuable natural capital without planning sufficiently for the future. The county has recognized the problem and has taken a step toward establishing a remedy: a fee on tree canopy removal, to be invested mainly in the planting of new trees. There is no limit on the trees or area that can be removed or disturbed.
Planting new trees is essential. We also need incentives to protect mature trees, which are more valuable than seedlings and can take generations to replace. It's time to launch an urban forest conservation easement program for owners of residential and commercial property lots. The program could be similar to the county's flagship transferable development rights program, which allows farmers to place land under easement and sell their "development rights." The bill should also set an urban forest canopy goal in order to measure progress and success.
Saving and investing in our trees will improve the quality of life for all who work and live here.

Tuesday, as you (probably) know by now, is Abundant Harvest Organics delivery day. They supply us with most of our produce, giving us gorgeous fruits and veggies to last us through the week. I also had this week's grocery shopping to do still, but had to wait for the delivery to get here first. I got my squash I baked last night out of the fridge and heated it up, but it just didn't taste good to me. It was kind of bitter, which was weird because butternut squash is sweet, so I tossed it out. I ended up having a bowl of cottage cheese and some coffee, and settling in to finish watching The Road to Wellville, and then catching up on Lost Girl. I had the two most recent episodes of that to watch. The veggies still hadn't come by 1pm, so I started another movie, Better Off Dead. Its one of the movies I have that Mattie refuses to watch on the grounds that it has John Cusack in it. Still, I like some of his movies, especially the old 80's stuff. SO cheesy but so much fun!
I also spent more time in the bathroom than I ever wanted to today because apparently everything I've eaten in the last week (okay, not really but it seemed that way) decided it was time to exit my body. I was feeling a little backed up a few days ago, but not any more! But hey, yay for stuff moving through! Months ago I purchased a container of Dr. Schulze's Intestinal Formula #2, which I still haven't had the chance to use. Basically, I've read you will be spending most of the week you're taking it in and out of the bathroom- which means I need to do it on a week that I will be home. I don't have any doctor's appointments or anything over the rest of this week, so I started it today. I took the first dose of it when I came home from shopping, and its flavorless, as people reviewing it have described, but it doesn't dissolve, and you really do need to add it to a jar or bottle that you can shake the living hell out of repeatedly to keep it sort of mixed and actually drinkable. I'll keep you guys posted on how that goes.
I also discovered that one of my friends has been scheduled for jury duty the same week I am here in town, so if we both get called in, we're riding together. Kind of funny how that works, you know? And while I could certainly use the little bi they pay you for serving, at the same time I don't really want to do it. The whole getting up super early in the morning and having to spend all day at the courthouse, maybe for many days, is not an appealing prospect for me, so I am really hoping I don't actually get called in or am sent home the first day. I know, I know, I'm supposed to do my civic duty, but damn it I don't want to!
Dinner was turkey drumsticks, mashed potatoes with gravy, and a salad- mine with avocado and Mattie's with cheese. We ended up eating really late because he had to go check out a friend's car when he got home from work, after finally fixing his own car. There's a story there too! Back in December, Mattie got his car back from the body shop after having it repaired from his accident. After about a week of it running fine, it started not starting about once a week. This went on for about a month and soon it started starting less often, until about a month ago it stopped starting altogether. From the beginning, I said "I bet its the ignition switch." He kind of blew it off, and over the following weeks, testing pretty much every aspect of the ignition system, and found nothing wrong. In the process he did learn a few new things, but he didn't solve the problem. Finally, today, he got a new ignition switch and installed it. The car started up just like normal, with no issues. I immediately marched outside to demand he tell me I was right, which he did… lol. I got to gloat about it a bit, and he has his car running again, so I'm happy- more so because it is fixed then for the gloating.
Food was fairly decent today. I really did indulge at dinner with a turkey leg, mashed potatoes and gravy, a big salad, and an avocado. After dinner, I followed it with my next dose of the cleanse powder, which only sucked a little because I had just eaten and then had to chug 12 oz of liquid and my stomach was like "Screw you! I'm FULL!" Because of the cleanse using juice (which I am cutting in half with water), I'm consuming more liquid points for this week, so will probably be over my P+ allotment for the week no matter how careful I am. Its just one week though and I do hope I see a good result. I haven't had my last dose yet tonight, but I've figured it in to my food diary already so I can get this set up to post before the very end of my night. Here's today's food diary.
|Cottage Cheese (1 Cup)
|Coffee w/Coffeemate
|Orange (2)
|Cleanse w/Newman's Own Limeaid
|Turkey Drumstick
|Mashed Potatoes & Gravy
|Salad w/Thousand Island Dressing
|Cleanse w/Newman's Own Limeaid
|Cleanse w/Newman's Own Limeaid
|Food Totals
I don't have much else to say for today, so going to call it an end here. Tomorrow I will have 5 doses of the cleanse in my system at the end of the day, instead of today's 3, and I will try to eat a less decadent meal. I do have an insane amount of salad stuff which I am desperately trying to use up this week, so it will probably involve that quite a few times. I also gave a big bag of potatoes and a spaghetti squash to our across the street neighbors as I have potatoes coming out of my freaking ears and I don't like spaghetti squash.
Okay, enough of me! See you all tomorrow!

Awesome printer server2/22/2007
The instructions are not accurate. My advise to add a new printer, choose "Local printer attached to this computer" and uncheck the auto-detect option. Then, choose a new port; choose "Standard TCP/IP port." After these, input the IP address of the printer server. Then, you need to have a driver for the printer to install on your computer. After the driver is installed, you can enjoy the printer server. Just don't use the network driver.

Before we even get started with Search Engines, we need to understand a little more about how search engines work. View the video below from the very good Common Craft Plain English series on Web Search – Strategies in Plain English
SquirrelNet is a kids only search engine that has Google SafeSearch activated. From the homepage itself, you can also access the Google directory of websites relevant for children.
Dib Dab Doo & Dilly Too!
The search engine is again based on Google Custom Search and it tries to keep the content as children friendly as possible.
Kids Click!
A web search site designed for kids by librarians – with kid-friendly results!
Librarians, teachers and parents have told us how hard it is for students to understand web searching. Boolify helps students bridge that gap by visualizing the process and letting students interact with the abstract concept behind the search process in a tangible and hands-on way.
Check out this 1:25m video on how to get started with Boolify
Search Engines for Kids
- and what they search -
- Awesome Library - 14,000 carefully reviewed resources
- Britannica - websites, magazines, books and the Encyclopedia Britannica.
- Dibdabdoo - metasearch DMOZ – Yahooligans – Kids Click
- INFOMINE - scholarly internet resources in K-12
- KidsWeb - Mid-Continent Public Library kid's directory
- SuperKids SuperSearch - selected sites
(adapted from: Ivy's Search Engine Resources for Kids)
No Search Engine is entirely 100% safe. Custom search helps to keep out a lot of unsavory links, but it is definitely not foolproof. Most of the search engines for kids also display ads with some undesirable ones sneaking in. Parental control software in combination with these search engines can help to keep children shielded from the bad side of the web. It is a tough battle but at least with these sites, parents and teachers can worry a little less.
As with any use of technology, the lesson will always include strategies for what to do when the "undesirables" sneak in.

French pilots' union SNPL has praised the judicial report into the loss of Air France flight AF447, but is yet to judge whether the technical report will match it for objectivity.
The parallel investigations followed the crash of the Airbus A330 in the South Atlantic in June 2009.
SNPL and Air France have previously clashed with Airbus over the findings of the technical investigation agency, BEA, and each side is braced for the conclusions on the technical report due to be released by BEA on 5 July.
The president of SNPL, Yves Deshayes, says the legal report - focusing on the aircraft design, procedures at the time of the crash, the crew's functioning, and regulatory oversight - has proven "quite objective, more objective than the last BEA report".
He says the union has "tried to push hard" to ensure that the impartiality is maintained in the technical report, but is reserving opinions until the BEA discloses the details.

Ok, she's really not being allowed to record anything—but for all intents and purposes, we probably won't be hearing Lil' Kim bust any bars until she wiggles her way out of this mess. The popular production duo Trackmasters is suing Kim after she refused to live up to their contract, allegedly due to their refusal to let her work with Akon ("Blame It On Me" is right, dude).
Trackmasters—also known as Poke & Tone—claim they paid off $200,000 of Lil' Kim's debts and spent over $2 million moving their company to Jersey for her. The pair are looking for complete restitution and a court order restricting any Brookland employees from working with Kim on any music. Ever! If Kim fails to beat (or settle) the suit, she better hope the Pussycat Dolls come up with a new reality show to judge fast.

Hmm. Well non of this Info in post helps at ALL.
Is there any way to boot COD3 from USB Flash or External HD? If you have any info plz post below.
don't know if this is the rite spot to ask this,i'm stuck where u are getting chased by 3 trucks and a gun ship which ends up taking out the bridge,at this stage i've been unable to take out the gunship before it blows the bridge.The bridge ends up breaking and i end up in the river below and unsure what to do next,is this normal?
cheers for any help
just look for a walkthrough on google
I am trying to run COD 3 from DVD (since I read it doesn't load from USB).
I have tried to run it using Neogamma (both R8 beta 15, R7), WiiGator (0.3, 0.3 247 ios, 0.3 beta, 0.1).
All loaders do the same thing.
COD starts, allows me to create/select profile, game player level, and when it launches, it just shows the 3 down in the right hand corner of the screen and the stars which normally progress underneath the 3 never shows up. It locks my Wii and I have to power off / on to gain control of my wii again.
All other DVD's work and I can boot other games from USB using ISO loader with no issues.
I burned the DVD using IMGburn, DVD-R media, 6x speed (since that is the minimum for the DVD-R discs). I have used this speed before and the burned DVD always works. The ISO I am using was rated as working for others.
download "iso patcher", drag the iso over the "isopatcher.exe" and it should load up so you can hange the ios to 249 and then burn the iso again and it should work
Thanks. I d/l isopatcher earlier both the W and the other. Wasn't sure that was what was needed till i read your response.
Did what you said and now am able to load call of duty.
Will I also be able to load it from USB now if I transfer it to my WSFB drive?
nope, this game can only be played from a disk, not usb

Deep-End Beats, Nov. 2013
by Philip Sherburne | November 8, 2013
Rhythmic mutations abound in this month's roundup of essential underground dance music, from Special Request's reinvigorated "Amen" breaks to Machinedrum's ethereal hybrid of footwork and jungle. Chicago's DJ Rashad is back with a new album for Hyperdub that pushes footwork even further into the stratosphere, while Laurel Halo's new album for the same label finds her reprogramming the mind-body connection one twisted drum pattern at a time. Autechre are up to their usual tricks on the shuddering, static-streaked L-Event, turning texture and pulse inside out, while James Murphy channels Steve Reich (and Carl Craig) in an epic, awe-inspiring remix of David Bowie's "Love Is Lost." We've also got new tracks and remixes from Prins Thomas, Mala, Theo Parrish, Mount Kimbie, DJ Koze, Black Devil and more.

If you, your parents or your parents' siblings had a heart attack before age 55 and you have a child, this advice from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) might surprise you: Have your child's cholesterol tested.
Under certain circumstances the AAP says cholesterol-lowering diets, under a pediatrician's supervision, are safe for children.
Which children need testing?
The AAP recommends cholesterol tests for children age 2 and older and teens in these situations:
A parent, parents or grandparents had atherosclerosis before age 55.
A parent, parents or grandparents had a heart attack or vascular disease before age 55.
A parent or parents have cholesterol of 300 or greater.
Youre health care provider will evaluate the child's diet, exercise habits and body mass index and order a cholesterol screening, if indicated. If the child has a total cholesterol level of greater than 200 mg/dl, your provider may do a full screening, including high-density lipoprotein (HDL or "good" cholesterol), low-density lipoprotein (LDL or "bad") cholesterol and triglycerides. If the child has an LDL level of 164 mg/dl or higher, your provider may do a more extensive evaluation.
In some cases, the AAP suggests, children should be tested if they have a higher heart-disease risk because of smoking, high blood pressure, obesity or diet, or if their parents' medical records aren't available.
What are the best numbers?
For children between ages 2 and 18, these are the best results:
Fasting total cholesterol: less than 170 mg/dl, optimal; 170 to 199 mg/dl, borderline high
Fasting LDL cholesterol: less than 110 mg/dl, acceptable; 110 to 129 mg/dl, borderline; 130 mg/dl or more, the child should be screened for causes
HDL: greater than 35 mg/dl, acceptable; less than 35 mg/dl is considered high risk
How to cut cholesterol
Begin healthy habits early, and remember that children mimic your habits. Michael Mogadam, M.D., author of the book Every Heart Attack Is Preventable, offers these tips:
Choose healthier eating habits your child will follow.
Pack your kid's lunch. Prepare meals of no more than 30 percent of calories from fat, and try to balance the types of fats included (polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and saturated).
Cut back on fried foods; pastries; cracker and chip snacks, which are high in fat and salt; cheese; high-fat spreads such as butter, margarine and mayonnaise; and salad dressings. Use low-fat salad dressings instead.
Allow children no more than one or two fast-food meals a week.

July 30, 2015
Texas (AP) - Scientists are puzzled over a declined this year in the number of nests for endangered Kemp's ridley sea turtles along the Texas coast.
Federal officials say they've counted 153 of the turtle nests in Texas, which is the largest U.S. nesting ground for the animals outside Mexico. A similar drop also has been detected in Mexico.
Last year, 209 nests were tallied in Texas.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Department Kemp's ridley coordinator, Tom Shearer, tells the Houston Chronicle (http://bit.ly/16FSSL2 ) he's concerned because the drop isn't something officials had been expecting. Instead, scientists had expected the number of nests to grow annually by 12 to 17 percent.
The turtle is the smallest sea turtle species.

When someone has diabetes, they are more open to getting a lot of other health problems which are easily undetected, for example, one serious problem that many are unaware that they have is sleep apnea. Sleep apnea actually causes your breath to stop while sleeping. Unusual feelings of fatigue and exhaustion during the day can be a sign of sleep apnea.

Troyden Prinsloo
June 11, 2012
SETUBAL BAY, Portugal --- Former Georgia swimmer Troyden Prinsloo of South Africa earned a berth in the Olympics on Sunday in the FINA 10-Kilometer Marathon Qualifier.
Prinsloo posted a time of 1 hour, 45 minutes and 40.8 seconds to come in fifth in the qualifier. The top 10 finishers in the event qualified for the Olympics, led by winner Ous Mellouli of Tunisia (1:45:18.5).
The 10-kilometer marathon will take place Aug. 10 in the Serpentine River in Hyde Park, London.
This will be Prinsloo's second appearance in the Olympics. He represented South Africa in the 2008 Beijing Games in the 1,500-meter freestyle. Prinsloo won the NCAA title in the 1,650-yard freestyle and the SEC crowns in the 500- and 1,650-yard freestyle in 2009.
The Olympic Trials for the United States will be held June 25-July 2 at CenturyLink Center in Omaha, Neb. There are approximately 50 current, former and future Georgia swimmers scheduled to compete in the Trials.
The swimming portion of the Olympics will take place July 28-Aug. 4 in London's Aquatics Centre. Former Lady Bulldogs Wendy Trott (South Africa) and Sarah Poewe (Germany) and signees Brittany MacLean (Canada) and Matias Koski (Finland) previously qualified for the Games.

Inerrancy is an essential doctrine held by orthodox Christians. If we are to know God and our true spiritual condition, then we must have confidence in His special revelation, the Holy Bible. (Only then, of course, can we learn what God has done to rectify our condition and to gain assurance in His work for us.) So the doctrine of Scripture and our confidence in its utter trustworthiness is critical for all other doctrines. While some form of the doctrine of Scripture has existed since the beginning of the church, the concept of inerrancy is a fairly recent addition to the debate. Below is a list of books to help one enter the discussion.
Beale, Gregory K. The Erosion of Inerrancy in Evangelicalism: Responding to New Challenges to Biblical Authority. Wheaton, Ill: Crossway Books, 2008. Beale effectively analyzes the current state of the doctrine of Scripture within the broader evangelical church and offers sound biblical responses.
Boice, James Montgomery. Does Inerrancy Matter? Oakland, Calif: International Council on Biblical Inerrancy, 1979. Boice was at the center of the inerrancy controversy, fighting to defend the doctrine of inerrancy and stating its relevancy for us today.
Carson, D. A., and John D. Woodbridge. Scripture and Truth. Grand Rapids, Mich: Zondervan Pub. House, 1983. An excellent collection of essays from leading scholars in the fields of biblical studies, church history and systematics.
Conference on the Inspiration and Authority of Scripture, and John Warwick Montgomery. God's Inerrant Word; An International Symposium on the Trustworthiness of Scripture. Minneapolis: Bethany Fellowship, 1974.
Geisler, Norman L. Inerrancy. Grand Rapids, Mich: Zondervan Pub. House, 1980. Geisler edits a collection of fine essays including: "The Meaning of Inerrancy," by Paul D. Feinberg and "Calvin and the Westminster Divines" by John H. Gerstner.
Kistler, Don. Sola Scriptura!: The Protestant Position on the Bible. Morgan, PA: Soli Deo Gloria Publications, 1995. Includes the essay, "What do we mean by Sola Scriptura?" by W. Robert Godfrey.
Schaeffer, Francis A., and James Montgomery Boice. The Foundation of Biblical Authority. Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1978. The International Council for Biblical Inerrancy formed in 1977 and set forth these series of essays in defense of inerrancy.
Sproul, R. C. Scripture Alone: The Evangelical Doctrine. Phillipsburg, N.J.: P&R Pub, 2005. Includes The Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy.
Turrettini, François and John W. Beardslee. The Doctrine of Scripture: Locus 2 of Institutio Theologiae Elencticae. Grand Rapids, Mich: Baker Book House, 1981. Turrentini represents a high point in seventeenth century Reformed orthodoxy and here defends the doctrine of inspiration.
Warfield, Benjamin Breckinridge, Samuel G. Craig, and Cornelius Van Til. The Inspiration and Authority of the Bible. Philadelphia: Presbyterian and Reformed Pub. Co, 1948. Warfield restates the doctrine of inspiration for his and future generations.
Westminster Theological Seminary (Philadelphia, Pa.), Ned Bernard Stonehouse, and Paul Woolley. The Infallible Word; A Symposium. Grand Rapids: W.B. Eerdmans Pub. Co, 1946. In this collection of essays, the faculty members of Westminster Seminary Philadelphia hold forth the historic doctrine that the Bible is the infallible Word of God.
Young, Edward J. Thy Word Is Truth; Some Thoughts on the Biblical Doctrine of Inspiration. Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1957. An older treatment, but it retains its value.

A suspect was named in the report.
The man named as the suspect in the previous report filed a separate report with police at 11:17 p.m. He met officers in the parking lot of a business in the area.
He told police he and a friend were walking out of a bar in the area when a man followed him out, accusing him of damaging his car. He said the man punched him and stabbed him with a knife.

» January 14, 2013
The Internal Revenue Service has announced cost-of-living adjustments affecting dollar limitations on 403(b) retirement-related plans for tax year 2013.
For Defined Contribution Plans, such as those offered at Whitman:
Telara McCullough, manager of compensation and benefits, suggests that staff and faculty may want to consider this to be a good time "to re-evaluate your personal retirement savings plan."
If you already contribute to TIAA-CREF, a good way to start this evaluation is contact a TIAA-CREF consultant directly at 800-842-2273, for more information, advice, or to make changes to your allocations. To open an account or change your rate of contribution, contact Whitman Human Resources.
TIAA-CREF consultants are available in person and by phone to meet for specific portfolio recommendations, guidance on past plans, and a retirement strategy review. If you are interested in scheduling an in-person appointment at a later date with Michael Williamson, TIAA-CREF consultant, please create an e-mail with TIAA-CREF in the subject line and send to Mary Luckstead – firstname.lastname@example.com – in Human Resources.
Whitman will host a TEDx event – a day of prepared talks, demonstrations and performances on a wide range of subjects – on Saturday, April 27. An offshoot of the internationally acclaimed TEDTalks, TEDx is a series of independently organized, community-based events dedicated to furthering TED's mission of "ideas worth spreading." TED, a nonprofit group that hosts conferences around the world, introduced TEDx as a way for local communities to share in a TED-like experience through a combination of TEDTalks video, live speakers and small group discussion. The theme of TEDxWhitmanCollege is "Walla Walla and Beyond."
"Our theme is purposeful in connecting Whitman and Walla Walla to the world beyond in terms of time, place, space, or however presenters might creatively interpret 'beyond,'" says Juli Dunn, director of academic resources and head of the TEDx organizing committee.
In addition to Dunn, faculty and staff involved with TEDxWhitmanCollege as committee chairs include Noah Leavitt, assistant dean for student engagement (organizing); Cate Lyon, WCTS consultant (sponsorship); Jon Loney, manager of instructional multimedia services (technology); Dalia Corkrum, director of Penrose Library, Leena Knight (speaker selection), assistant professor of biology (speaker selection); and Kyle Scott, technology and marketing fellow for the Student Engagement Center (social media and marketing).
The call for applications to present at Walla Walla's first TEDx event is now open. The deadline is Feb. 1. Applications will be considered based on criteria of originality and creativity of work, applicability of the presentation to a general audience and quality of video audition submitted. According to Dunn, speakers should be passionate about their topic and ready to engage with the audience. Presentations, which must be a maximum of 15 minutes long, should provide inspiration, generate conversation and/or present a unique point of view.
Interested in learning more about TED and TEDx? Visit the TEDxWhitman College website. To apply, submit an application online. With questions, contact Juli Dunn at firstname.lastname@example.com.
As announced via campus email last week, the deadline for enrollment in the YMCA membership program that grants Whitman employees a discounted rate is Monday, Jan, 21. Membership fees can be paid by payroll deduction either annually in January, or monthly. Completed forms must be submitted to the HR office by the end of the day. The membership application and a listing of 2013 rates are available on the HR benefits web page at the bottom of the page under Membership. Questions? Contact Telara McCullough in Human resources at x5941 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Kristen Kosmas, assistant professor of theatre, has garnered critical acclaim for her play "There There," which just completed a successful run in New York City. Kosmas wrote and performed in the offbeat production, which The New York Times calls a "language-drenched, resonant knock-out." Co-commissioned and presented by The Chocolate Factory and Performance Space 122, the show opens with a famous actor on tour in Russia, performing a monologue inspired by the character Solyony from Chekhov's "Three Sisters." When this actor falls from a ladder, his unprepared understudy, Karen (Kosmas), is forced to replace him, with the help of her Russian interpreter, Leo. Click HERE to read The New York Times review.
Edward Weinman, writer in the Office of Communications, has written his debut novel. Titled The Ring Road, it is published by The Rogue Reader and has been named as a Nook First Pick. Described as a "blend of crime and dark fantasy" and likened to the works of Stieg Larsson, The Ring Road takes place after a glacial volcano awakens with a series of eruptions, stranding ex-cop Hobson at 66 degrees north where human behavior is as unpredictable as the weather. Hobson is quickly ensnared in a bizarre murder investigation involving Gummi, a road-weary homicide detective; Jon Kari, an amoral entrepreneur; Snorri, a brutal pimp; and Ulfar, a homicidal sheep farmer. As Hobson falls in with a group of enigmatic tourists trying to survive the volcanic aftermath, the chase for a killer pushes them all to the edge of the inhabitable world. The book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble or at www.theroguereader.com. In writing the novel, which he began three years ago, Weinman's was inspired by his eight years as a writer in Iceland. Read more about Weinman HERE.

PRO/CON Should Early Goal-Directed Therapy Be the Standard for Sepsis?
Page 2 of 2
Con: Too Many Assumptionsby Kevin Klauer, DO
I am actually a fan of early goal-directed therapy for sepsis. For that matter, I think stroke centers do great work and do positively impact stroke management. However, tPA, given in 1% of all stroke victims, 13% of those eligible, has little to no impact on these improvements. When we focus on management of a disease process you know what happens? The care gets better. The same is true for early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) for sepsis.
When it comes down to EGDT, there are so many treatments included in the sepsis bundle, you can't tell what's really working. I really doubt that every component of EGDT is a value-added step. Hey, let's add coconut cream pie or chocolate covered cherries to the bundle. The point is, by adding coconut cream pie or anything else to EGDT, the data would look just as good. The only difference is that the patients would get a tasty treat along with all of the other components of the bundle.
Coconut cream pie cannot positively our negatively influence outcomes in sepsis. My question is, "How many pieces of coconut cream pie are already being served in this expensive sepsis cocktail?"
My initial concern is that the inclusion criteria are way too broad. In order to classify someone as septic, they must have systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and a source of infection. To diagnose SIRS, you need 2 or more of the following:
-A temperature over 38.3C or less than 36.0C
-A heart rate over 90
-A respiratory rate over 20
-A WBC count less than 4,000 or over 12,000
-Acutely alerted mental status
-Hyperglycemia in non-diabetic patients
How many SIRS patients really don't deserve a central line and an ICU admission? Do we really intend for those with a fever, strep tonsillitis and dehydration, who have a heart rate over 90 and a temperature of 38.5 to get the kitchen sink thrown at them? This makes no sense.
Just like many seemingly good ideas in medicine, once the train leaves the station, it takes years to slow it down, validating efficacy. This is a classic example. One study and 263 patients later (Rivers, NEJM 2001) and we have doubts surfacing nearly ten years later.
Perhaps the most compelling article raising questions about the sepsis bundle is from a consensus panel of 55 international experts revisited the components of the sepsis bundle and reviewed the recommendations, assigning a grade of strong or weak and an associated level of evidence; A = High quality, B = Moderate quality, C = Low quality and D = Very low quality. Fifteen strong recommendations were assigned only a C or D. Several items, including recombinant activated protein C (Xigris) administration, at a cost of $14,000 for a 100kg patient, and stress dose steroid therapy were classified as weak, assigned B and C, respectively. Three items with a strong recommendation and a moderate quality of evidence were the administration of crystalloid fluid resuscitation, administration of broad-spectrum antimicrobials within one hour of diagnosis of septic shock and maintaining a target hemoglobin of 7 to 9g/dL in the context of sepsis. Despite the momentum behind EGDT within 6 hours, the level of evidence supporting this recommendation was "Low quality," a level C.
So, what does the evidence actually say regarding tight glycemic control and steroids? Physiologic stress results in hyperglycemia and suppressed adrenal function with poor responses to corticotropin or ACTH stimulation testing. Are these markers for bad disease or opportunities for intervention? The data suggests they are only markers.
With respect to intensive insulin therapy, otherwise known as "tight glycemic control," the preponderance of evidence shows two things: No difference in mortality, and a substantially higher rate of hypoglycemic events. Treggiari reported no difference in mortality for 10,456 ICU patients treated with tight control versus no protocol at all. They also noted 3 to 4 times more likelihood for moderate to severe hypoglycemia.
Consensus is that high dose steroids are harmful. Although there is some controversy regarding low-dose, physiologic corticosteroids, strong data reflects that they do not influence mortality rates in sepsis.
Finally, there is much focus on which vasopressor is best. Following aggressive volume resuscitation, vasopressors seem like a reasonable consideration. However, there is no definitive data proving this assumption. A recent Cochrane database review reported no conclusive evidence to support one vasopressor over another or that vasopressors impact mortality at all.
Early recognition of sepsis, aggressive volume resuscitation to maintain perfusion and early broad-spectrum antibiotics are clearly interventions that positively influence mortality. The remaining components may only be stealing the credit for their success without contributing any additional positive benefit themselves.

about the bigfoot networks cards
If you are going to get one, get the killer 2100. The hardware firewall on the killer xeno pro is crap. It will push through all traffic except network printer traffic. I even tried making exceptions in the killer firewall and no dice. Even tried disabling the firewall on the card. And with norton 2010 IS suite and a onboard nic, all is fine too.all along win 7 could see the printer and monitor the ink levels with the killer xeno pro. I know it's a software forum, just pointing out the problems with bigfoot networks hardware firewall on the killer xeno pro. The hardware firewall problem was fixed with the killer 2100 software/firmware by renaming it to application control and giving it a new look. Thus, the killer 2100 allows all traffic now including network printing. Bigfoot networks tried to fix the problem by introducing the 6.0 software for the killer xeno pro which looks exactly like the 2100's but there is one problem. what the firmware update 6.0 does to the killer xeno pro causes hardware instability. Meaning you get stop 0x0000009c hardware failure bsod's unless you go back to the older 18.104.22.168 software/firmware which has the crappy firewall.

I don't see how more exposure for the UFC is going to hurt Zuffa. Fox maybe, but Zuffa? I mean trying to hurt a company by showing off it's most epic moments and hyping it's resources is like trying to sabotage Wal-Mart by buying **** from there.
Take that Zuffa, free promotion! HA!

El Mirage 2-year-old drowns in pool
On Sunday, El Mirage fire crews and police responded to a drowning call on Larkspur Road, where a two-year-old boy was found floating in a pool.
Crews arrived on scene within three minutes, where family members were performing CPR the child, who was transported to a nearby hospital, where he later died.
"There was no fence around the pool, no barriers," El Mirage Fire Chief Howard Munding told KTAR.
He went on to admonish parents of young children to be vigilant around pools as summer approaches.
"Even if you do have a fence, you've got to watch them like a hawk," he said.
Details of how long the child had been in the pool are unknown.

U.S. reduces number of drone strikes
Washington • Six months after President Barack Obama vowed to change his administration's approach to lethal drone missile strikes, the pace of aerial attacks has fallen sharply, thanks in part to stricter targeting criteria.
Obama also promised to make the drone campaign more transparent. But a blanket of secrecy thus far has remained firmly in place.
The Democrat-led Senate Intelligence Committee voted on Nov. 5 to require the administration to disclose how many civilians and militants were killed by drones each year. That tally has never been publicly available.
The panel also voted to impose additional intelligence demands before the White House could authorize a drone strike against a U.S. citizen or resident alien. Drones have killed five Americans since 2002, although only one, al-Qaida operative Anwar al-Awlaki, was officially marked for death.
"The American people should be given basic facts about mistakes when they are made, and they should also be given the rules that the government must follow when targeting and killing an American involved in terrorist activities," Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., a committee member, said in a statement.
The proposed restrictions, however, part of a broader intelligence bill, may not survive. Republicans on the Senate panel voted for the bill, but most opposed the drone amendments. Key lawmakers in the GOP-controlled House also oppose the provisions.
The White House has yet to take a position. Caitlin Hayden, spokeswoman for the National Security Council, said the administration already was transparent concerning drones.
"The president has committed to undertaking these activities with the greatest possible transparency, and we will continue to share as much information as possible with the American people, the Congress and the international community," she said.
In a speech in May at National Defense University, Obama said he had signed a policy directive that set new standards before the White House would approve targeted killing by drones.
Obama said the CIA had to show that a proposed target posed a "continuing imminent threat" to Americans, rather than a "significant threat," the previous standard. In addition, no attack would be ordered without "near certainty" that civilians would not be harmed, the president said.
The number of strikes already had fallen before May, but the new rules served to cut the frequency further.
The Long War Journal, which tracks drone attacks through local news reports, has counted 22 strikes this year in Yemen, down from 42 last year. It has counted 25 attacks in Pakistan this year, down from 46 last year and a peak of 117 in 2010. A single strike has been reported in Somalia this year.
Administration officials have said drone strikes have killed relatively few civilians, but have refused to say how many. The Long War Journal says 11 civilians have been killed in Pakistan this year and two in Yemen; other estimates are higher.
In June, a drone-launched missile hit an SUV carrying a Qaida commander in Yemen. CIA officers didn't realize that his younger brother also was in vehicle, according to U.S. officials who would not be named because the operation is classified. The CIA later put the victim's age at between 6 and 13.
The CIA has given a classified briefing to Congress on the death, but has refused to acknowledge it publicly. The NSA's Hayden declined to comment.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said the number of noncombatant deaths was "significantly lower" than critics claimed. She said she had urged the White House to disclose the data "so the American people know how careful these strikes have been."
In part, drone strikes have declined because there are fewer identified terrorist leaders to hit. In Pakistan, the core leadership of the Qaida network founded by Osama bin Laden has been decimated, although remnants are still active.
But experts say the Nov. 1 drone strike that killed Pakistani Taliban leader Hakimullah Mehsud, who helped organize the suicide bombing that killed seven CIA officers and contractors in December 2009 in eastern Afghanistan, proves that drones remain a vital counter-terrorism weapon.
