WASHINGTON, Aug. 15, 2002 Security is not the most serious concern inside Afghanistan, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said today. Rather, supporting the new civilian government is now the international community's most pressing priority.
"There's one region where there is difficulty, southeast of Kabul, but throughout the rest of the country, ... the situation is reasonably stable," Rumsfeld told Pentagon reporters.
To help strengthen the transitional government of Afghan President Hamid Karzai, U.S. and coalition special operations and civil affairs are working throughout the country and in conjunction with nongovernmental organizations to improve Afghanistan's infrastructure.
Such forces are digging wells and rebuilding roads, bridges, school and hospitals, Rumsfeld said.
Army Gen. Tommy Franks, commander of U.S. Central Command in Tampa, Fla., gave other details of military forces providing humanitarian and civil assistance in Afghanistan. Franks is responsible for all American and coalition forces in the region that includes Afghanistan and Iraq.
In the past four to five months, more than 60 civil projects have been completed. Among them:
An additional 55 to 60 such projects are under way. Franks explained that on any given day, between 100 and 200 "troopers" are working with more than 300 nongovernmental organizations in 40 or more locations inside Afghanistan.
Three coalition countries - Korea, Spain and Jordan - are running hospitals inside Afghanistan. Franks noted more than 100,000 Afghans have been treated at the Jordanian military hospital in Mazar-e Sharif.
"That sort of reminds me of the fact that up until last year, 26 million people in Afghanistan had not had much medical (care)," he said. "And women for sure had had no medical (care)," Franks added, noting that under the Taliban women were not allowed to work as doctors and male doctors were not allowed to treat female patients.
Rumsfeld said countries that have pledged aid to Afghan need to speed up the donations. He noted more than $5 billion dollars in aid was pledged for this year through a series of donor conferences. Less than one-third has been delivered so far.
"The international community is not yet delivering the level of assistance to President Karzai and his team that is needed," Rumsfeld said. "The ministers don't have a structure under them so they can actually govern the entire country."
The secretary said America's goal for Afghanistan is for it to achieve self-governance and self-sufficiency and not be a haven for terrorists. And he said he's seen significant progress in that direction.
"Does that mean everything is just right in Afghanistan? To be sure, it is not," Franks said. "But what it does mean is that there is a government in Afghanistan that is trying to move forward to the future, and I think our coalition is pleased to be part of that move."

Hepatitis C Training Workshops
In 2001, the Hepatitis C Support Project (HCSP) conducted a broad needs assessment for hepatitis C awareness and education. The Project determined that the most needed resource was a quality HCV educational process that could be widely distributed and utilized throughout underserved communities affected by HCV. To accomplish this objective, HCSP designed a prototype two-day program that covers hepatitis C awareness and education in a training workshop environment. The goal of this program is to educate individuals who can then educate their respective communities on HCV. The areas targeted for the Project's first series of outreach programs are rural communities in Northern and Central California. The goal of the Project is to reach communities in need of HCV awareness and education nationally. Click here
to see locations of trainings and recertifications and here to see maps of past and future trainings.
The goal of the Hepatitis C Training Workshops is to provide unbiased and quality education to the HCV community and to the general public. Our vision is that our training workshops will provide HCSP certified HCV Educators for local agencies.
About the Training Workshops
The Hepatitis C Training Workshop is now an intensive one-day workshop that will provide the necessary knowledge and tools for people to go out into their communities and educate others about hepatitis C. The topics covered in the workshop include:
Workshop participants who successfully complete the training will have learned the necessary information to provide a basic HCV presentation. In addition, the training workshop will provide background information on HCV that will enable the trainees to be able to address an audience's questions about hepatitis C.
Furthermore, workshop participants who successfully complete the course will be certified as a Basic Hepatitis C Educator by the HCSP for a period of one year. Annual recertification will be available.
The overall goal for this program is to provide HCSP-trained educators throughout the United States.
The Hepatitis C Support Project has partnered with various organizations across the United States to conduct trainings.
Schedule for Hepatitis C Training Workshops
Coming in 2015:
Completed Workshops:
In 2013 HCSP conducted the following HCV training workshops:

iKrut is a free Applicant Tracking System. That is to say, it allows users to recruit new employees in a much quicker, cheaper, and more timesaving that using the traditional approach of recruitment. To use iKrut effectively, you don't need to have a hardware, software, or training. Everything is made a lot simpler.
Basically, this service helps you attract the candidates for the jobs. Then, it does all the hard work for you and arranges interviews, rejects unqualified candidates, and collects references on the successful candidates. It will practically let you save time and reduce costs. This is very ideal for small to medium sized businesses hiring 20- 200 people a year.
The basic premise of this is to speed up the process of recruitment by arranging and organizing the normally time- consuming tasks more dynamically. For instance, with the use of this service it is possible to have CVs that are mailed to you for any specific position to be categorized in order. This approach is more orderly and convenient that opening an inbox with 100 CVs in a jumbled order.
Not only that, you can also carry out bulk actions, such as rejecting multiple candidates at once very easily. It also makes collecting the references or requirements from potential candidates a smoother and automated task.
These features mentioned are only a few elements that highlight the effectiveness of iKrut. It has more functionality that will surely make the process less tedious and more efficient like building your own database for jobseekers and more. Users can use the new Video Application form to view candidates taking out the need for a first interview also, questions can be added which can remove any unsuitable candidates who have applied to the vacancy. What's best is that you can use iKrut for a completely free of charge.

An exciting collaboration between Movement In Worship and Psalm Drummers! The 2014 Scotland Summer School will explore the dynamics of worship and mission through movement and percussion. We'll be connecting land, people and the Holy Spirit through worship, intercession and the prophetic.
Building on a devotional and Biblical foundation the school splits into two training streams, 'Movement' and 'Percussion'. Each participant will choose which stream they will do for the week.
The 'Movement Stream' includes intercessory and prophetic movement, an exploration of different dance styles and the use of props. All participants will be prepared for moving on the streets.
Through group work the 'Percussion Stream' explores worship and prayer using rhythm. You will be challenged and helped to become more creative in using your playing to connect with God and to communicate Him to others.
These streams merge together to take worship and intercession out into the community. Plus one of the highlights is always the community that is built throughout all aspects of the week including the fun social evenings.
Who can come?
No previous experience in dance or drumming is needed as experienced trainers will be facilitating the week.
The minimum recommended age is 12 years and there's no maximum age! Please contact us if you have children under 12 years who would like to attend. All under 16s need a participating guardian with them, who will be responsible for their behaviour and engagement.
Costs: £170 (or £150 early bird rate before 30th April)
(EB rate cannot be combined with MIW Associates discount rate)
Please note: this does not include food & accommodation
The course content:
Each of the 5 teaching days will start at 9.30am and will include prayer, worship, biblical teaching and practical application that will build as the week progresses. There are 2 mission events where we'll be taking our worship out into the city of Edinburgh.
We're also transitioning from the teaching section of the week into a 'Next Wave' continuous worship event, where participants can come to as much or as little as they like. During this time we'll have our final outreach a Spirit.Rhythms event where we'll be inviting the local community to come into the Wellsprings venue where we'll have a drum circle with dance using a range of prophetic evangelism tools … let's see what God will do!
Dates: Monday 11th – Sunday 17th August 2014
Venue: Edinburgh, Wellsprings
How to book: Application forms need to be returned to us by Monday 28th July 2014 at: Movement in Worship, City Gate @ Brighthelm Centre, North Road, Brighton, BN1 1YD. Book via the Movement In Worship website.

Long-term strategy for the statistical design of a forest health monitoring system
Schreuder, Hans T.; Czaplewski, Raymond L. 1993. Long-term strategy for the statistical design of a forest health monitoring system. Environmental Monitoring and Assessment. 27: 81-94.
A conceptual framework is given for a broad-scale survey of forest health that accomplishes three objectives: generate descriptive statistics; detect changes in such statistics; and simplify analytical inferences that identify, and possibly establish cause-effect relationships. Our paper discusses the development of sampling schemes to satisfy these three objectives, but without any design restrictions implied by existing sample surveys. A general vision of a desirable future system will increase chances that short-term decisions will lead to better environmental monitoring systems in the long term.
Keywords: forest health monitoring, descriptive statistics, cause-effect relationships

Gran Turismo (グランツーリスモ Guran Tsūrisumo?, also previously known as Gran Turismo 4 Mobile,[3] Gran Turismo Mobile,[4] Gran Turismo 5 Portable and Gran Turismo Portable) is a 2009 PlayStation Portable (PSP) game developed by Polyphony Digital. The game was announced at the E3 Sony press conference on May 11, 2004, the same conference where Sony announced the original PSP. Following five years of delays and speculation, it made a reappearance at E3 on June 2, 2009 in a playable form. It was released on October 1, 2009 as one of the launch titles for the new PSP Go. As of March, 2013, Gran Turismo has sold 4.22 million units, making it one of the best-selling PSP games.[5] On June 1, 2010, the game was rereleased as part of the Greatest Hits.
The game is centered on an open-ended design. The single-player menu presents players with three variables — Mode Selection (Time Trial, Single Race, and Drift Trial), Car Selection, and Track Selection. The player can pick and choose circuits and vehicles, with credits earned based on the difficulty, performance and number of laps they have chosen. Players can select from any number of laps, one to 99. There are 45 tracks (including layout variations) plus the added bonus of reverse on most tracks, which takes the track number to 72. For the first time in the series, the game features the use of custom soundtracks that enables players to play their own songs while racing, but this option must first be unlocked by completing section B or C of the Driving Challenges. The music tracks can be used for offline or online races.
There are some hidden tracks which are removed prior to release (notably Smokey Mountain and Tahiti Circuit from Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec - both which initially debuted in 2 with some differences). These tracks are only accessible via PSPs that have custom firmware and running Gameshark-like programs, and some issues have been reported with them. Gran Turismo features 833 vehicles, each modeled accurately and statistics derived from their real life counterparts. Players will start with a low-powered car, but can upgrade as they progress through the game. The dealerships available change after every other race, so players won't always be able to buy what they are looking for.[6] Like Tourist Trophy, there are only four cars (3 are opponents) feature in a race at any one time. There is an interior view available for each car — however, it is not detailed. For multiplayer, players have access to four-player local wireless play across a handful of modes, with various options that allow players of all skill types to play together. There is no online play (although it supports adhoc Party for PlayStation Portable) nor are there any online leaderboards for time trial times or the ability to share ghost laps with other players.
The game features over 800 cars, although only four cars are present in any race. The exotic car manufacturer Ferrari is featured, and for the first time in the main Gran Turismo series, Lamborghini, Bugatti and various other cars were introduced and fully licensed.[7] There is no damage model in the game.[8]
Gran Turismo is centered on completing driving missions in order to advance in the game, unlike Gran Turismo 4's open-ended map. The game uses a new trading system to allow players to acquire cars.[9] Ad hoc multiplayer will be supported for up to four players. Gran Turismo also allows online play through the free downloadable PlayStation 3 (PS3) application Adhoc Party for PlayStation Portable.[10] During an interview at E3, it was revealed that tracks featured in the game (such as Valencia Ricardo Tormo) are directly sourced from Gran Turismo 4 and Tourist Trophy, while the game's physics engine is based on Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.[11] Downloadable content (DLC) will not be released for Gran Turismo,[8] although five cars already included in the game are available for free download off the PlayStation Store in exclusive colors.
Fitting a full-scale Gran Turismo on the PSP platform was a challenge for Polyphony Digital. Series director Kazunori Yamauchi stated that the main problem was trying to fit the game in such a small memory space. Regardless, Gran Turismo runs at 60 frames per second (rare for a portable title) and takes up only 1GB of storage.[12]
Originally named Gran Turismo 4 Mobile,[13][14] the game was initially to have a release date sometime in April 2005 — [15] however, it was notably absent from the 2004 Tokyo Game Show[16] and then from E3 2005, a year after it was first announced.[3] At the end of 2005, Sony Computer Entertainment announced that the game would be pushed back to sometime in 2006.[17] Despite no news for most of 2006, Kazunori Yamauchi assured audiences that Gran Turismo for the PSP was still in development and on its way.[18]
In April 2008, Yamauchi stated that developing Gran Turismo 5 on the PlayStation 3 "took much more time and effort and this was because loads of new stylish cars have started to come out so it took longer to develop than we had first imagined," and that it was unlikely the PSP version would be released by the end of 2008.[19] A version of Gran Turismo for the PSP was shown during Sony's E3 2009 keynote on June 2, 2009. Called simply Gran Turismo, its October 1, 2009 release date coincides with the launch of the PSP Go (announced at the same conference).[4] Yamauchi discussed many reasons for the delays, with one of them being Polyphony Digital's busy schedule with releases of Gran Turismo 4, Tourist Trophy, Gran Turismo HD, and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue during the time of Gran Turismo's development. The company also refused to outsource the game to another developer describing that move as, "unthinkable."[20] Yamauchi also considered other names for the PSP game, either Gran Turismo Spyder or Gran Turismo Portable, but decided at the end to name it just Gran Turismo because he wanted people to know that it was a "fully-specced Gran Turismo."[21]
A free Downloadable content pack for the game was released consisting five exclusive cars not available in the game's car dealerships. Exotic cars such as the Ferrari Enzo and Lamborghini Countach are included.[22] On June 1, 2010, the game was re-released as part of Sony's Greatest Hits budget line of video games.
Marketing and release[edit]
As part of its promotion of the game, Sony had a crane built at GamesCom in Cologne, Germany that would hang the journalists 15 meters above the ground to try out the game.[23] Sony Canada has also been known to advertise the game on various billboards in the Toronto, Ontario region.[citation needed] Sony has recently started a TV teaser campaign. The most recent commercial for the game was shot at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
Gran Turismo is available as both a Universal Media Disc (UMD) at retail and as a digital download from the PlayStation Store.[12] Users are able to install part of Gran Turismo on their memory stick. The install takes about 1GB of space. The UMD still needs to be in the PSP's UMD drive to run the game. The loading times of the game are drastically reduced after installing.
Gran Turismo received average reviews from critics. On Metacritic, the game has an overall rating of 74 out of 100, based on 73 reviews.[25] On GameRankings, it has a score of 74.63% based on 56 reviews.[24] It was praised for still featuring the same realistically handling cars for the console games as well as having a large number of cars but it was criticized for not having a traditional career mode nor the ability to upgrade cars.
As of March 2013, Gran Turismo has sold 4.22 million copies worldwide.[5]

David Bowie at the Races – Bethnal Green Working Men's ClubThursday, January 28th, 2010
Friends of Panik Mike H and Mike P have got together more through indecision than collaboration to bring what sounds to be a great night of fun and frolics at the Bethnal Green Working Men's Club.
Taking Mike H's love of the 1984 Diamond Dogs album by David Bowie as their inspiration and Mike P's love of 'the dogs' (races that is!), they have decided to incorporate the two – culminating in David Bowie at the Races.
With what promises to be night of good music, gambling, CHEAP booze, dressing up like Bowie or a race punter and much hi-jinx! Including:
David Bowie Cabaret
**The Man Who Sold the World (to pay off his Ladbrokes Account)**
**An unlicensed Deutschmark bookmaker**
**The Midnight Diamond Dogs Sweepstakes**
**TOP DJ's PLAYING**
Bowie, Rock N Roll, disco classics, Northern Soul, a bit of what you fancy, MODERN.
Plus all the usual Working Men's Club dancey fun.
It kicks off at 8pm on Saturday the 30th of January.
Dres code: Get on your platforms, lycra and face paint or don a flat cap, sheepskin and a dog on a leash – why not combine the two?!
For such inspired frivolities there has to be a cover charge which will go to CHARITY, £5 on the door (if you are on the guest list), else £7 / £8; all money to go to a good cause (Mike H's election campaign/Haiti DEC appeal/Labour Friends of Iraq).
Panik gives this a massive 8/10 and we ain't even been yet!!

Both Northern
Arizona University Theatre venues (the Studio and the Clifford E. White) are general
admission seating. Tickets are valid only for the event issued on the date and
time specified.
All patrons
are required to have a ticket, regardless of age. Moreover, NAU Theatre
typically does not "rate" productions except in extreme cases where mature
adult audiences are recommended. Children under four years of age (particularly
infants) are discouraged from attending any NAU Theatre production except for
events specifically geared towards children of that age.
Will call is
located in the lobby of each venue (the Studio or the Clifford E. White
Theatre), and opens one hour prior to each show.
Be sure to
Due to the
small seating capacity of our theatre venues, any unclaimed tickets are subject
to release and resale. Will-call ticket holders are guaranteed admission until
five minutes prior to curtain time, at which time their seats may be released
and their tickets voided in the event of a sold-out performance.
We are unable to issue refunds or exchanges for
any tickets unclaimed at curtain time. This situation is particularly apparent in the
Studio Theatre, so we ask subscribers to call the box office if they are unable
to attend on any designated night they may have tickets purchased in advance.
We offer special
seating for patrons that require such due to physical or other impairment
conditions. Please request special seating when making reservations. Both of
our theatre venues are wheelchair accessible (some assistance may be required).
If you wish to sit closer to the stage than
designated wheelchair seating in the Clifford E. White Theater you may request
that seating as well, or inform the House Manager of your preference when you
arrive. Again, we will make every effort to accommodate your request, but such
seating must be at the discretion of the House Manager.
seating begins 30 minutes prior to curtain.
We strive to
begin our performances on time. To avoid disturbing both the actors and other
patrons, latecomers will be seated at the discretion of the House Manager in a
special late-seating section at the rear of the theatre and they may move to an
empty seat at intermission.
In some cases, often depending upon the
production, a director may specifically request that there be no late seating;
and in order to preserve the artistic experience, we will honor that request.
We encourage all patrons to arrive at the theatre early.
We reserve
the right to refuse admission or eject any person whose conduct is deemed
unbecoming or interferes with the audience's ability to enjoy the performance
in the manner in which it was intended.
Where it may
be appropriate to come and go at will or openly converse with others when at
the cinema, it is not so at the theatre. The staff has the right to enforce
house rules for patron comfort.
For the comfort and safety of everyone, please refrain from bringing the
following prohibited items:
Due to most
artist requests, no professional recording devices are allowed. Cell phones,
laptop computers, and Blackberries should be turned completely off.
Pagers may be left with the House Manager –
please inform her/him of your approximate location in the auditorium if you might
be paged during a performance. NAU Theater is a non-smoking facility.

Kerry Magro Is One of Three to Win GEICO Award Seton Hall > News & Events
Monday, June 14, 2010 by: Pamela Dungee
Stillman School student Kerry Magro is one of three members of The National Society of Collegiate Scholars (NSCS) to earn a $1,000 scholarship through longtime partner GEICO. The 2010 GEICO Achievement Award is open to sophomore and junior NSCS members majoring in business, math, computer science or other related fields, and is judged by eight GEICO employees. Criteria for selection include academics, leadership, and participation in school and community activities. "Winning this award is simply amazing," said Magro. "Over Christmas break, I was checking the NSCS Website, saw the scholarship and thought this would fit me perfectly. Next thing I knew I was being recognized for the award!" When asked how he intended to use the scholarship, Magro responded, "I am truly blessed to know people who are helping students reach their fullest potential. I will use the money to help pay for my courses during the 2010-11 school year."

ACI's Scholarship and Emergency Financial Aid Program funds tuition and helps meet varying financial needs of students facing unanticipated personal or financial hardship. The goal is to enable all undergraduate students – especially those from low-to-moderate income families -- to benefit from the distinct advantages of private higher education, even if they suffer reversals of fortune once they are enrolled at an ACI institution.
ACI's Scholarship & Emergency Financial Aid Program is donor-driven, allowing funders to target support to students who meet specific criteria or who are pursuing specific career paths. Scholarships may be given in honor or memory of a loved one or colleague; they may be given annually or endowed in perpetuity; and they may be designated as one-year or multi-year awards. ACI Scholarships create a pool of funds allocated among the member colleges and universities each spring, when financial aid officers are designing aid packages for students for the upcoming fall semester. Member institutions administer the scholarship application process and report back to ACI about the recipients. Similarly, all the member colleges and universities receive a share of ACI's Emergency Financial Aid, a pool of funds provided by the McGraw Foundation and 5th 3rd Bank. Emergency Financial Aid can be awarded by financial aid officers throughout the year, whenever students present compelling needs for help paying tuition and other education expenses.

The jury came back around 12:45 p.m. and found Williams guilty. The punishment phase began around 2:15 p.m. and closing arguments began.
Original Story:
ill, doctors help us recover. Their expertise in helping to make Nolan County a healthier place is invaluable. In commemoration of National Doctor's Day on March 30, Rolling Plains Memorial Hospital (RPMH) wants to recognize the doctors who dedicate their lives to ensure that we maintain the best health possible.
"In our time of need, our doctors are there for us. They save lives, literally, on a daily basis," said Donna Boatright, administrator of RPMH. "I always think of doctors as some of our community's most prominent heroes."
ROSCOE, Texas — Seventy percent of firefighters in the United States are volunteer and the only way for these departments to update and repair their lifesaving equipment is through community donations. The Roscoe Volunteer Fire Department faced a very dry year with many fires and is in need of extra funds to purchase new equipment. Thanks to one local farmer and America's Farmers Grow Communities, the Roscoe Volunteer Fire Department can continue to keep its community and surrounding area safe.

Respirator Cartridge Change Schedule
Respirators are among the most important pieces of safety equipment available. With chemical cartridges, they can be used to filter out and protect workers from many hazards. The media used in these chemical cartridges is typically activated carbon, which adsorbs a number of chemicals. However, the adsorption capacity is limited. In 1998, OSHA addressed this issue in its revised respiratory standard. It is no longer acceptable to rely on odor thresholds and other warning properties as the primary way of determining cartridge life. Fortunately for employers, there are three options available to help them comply with this standard.
The revisions to the OSHA standard, 29 CFR 1910.134, became effective April 8, 1998.
29 CFR 1910.134(d)(3)(iii)(B)(2) states that If there is no end-of-service-life indicator appropriate for conditions in the employer's workplace, the employer must implement a change schedule for canisters and cartridges based on objective information or data that will ensure the canisters are changed before the end of their service life.
Simply stated, chemical cartridges must be equipped with a NIOSH-approved end-of-service-life indicator or ESLI. This is an area on the cartridge that changes color when it's time to replace the cartridge. If the cartridge does not have this indicator, employers must develop and enforce a change schedule based on reliable information. Currently, there are very few cartridges equipped with NIOSH-approved ESLIs. To comply with the standard, employers must develop their own change schedules, but they do not have to search for and analyze test data themselves. Employers can simply acquire information from other sources that have the expertise to develop change schedules. The employers must then include the source for this information in their written respiratory program. If no information can be obtained to develop an accurate respirator cartridge change schedule, the employees must use a supplied-air system.
Steps to Develop a Respirator Cartridge Change Schedule
- Gather material safety data sheets for all the chemicals in the workplace.
- Determine which, if any, hazardous chemicals may be present in the workplace.
- Determine the products and the by-products of chemical processes and/or reaction. ** If unknown contaminates are possible, you must use supplied air.
- Conduct sampling to determine the concentration levels of contaminants.
- Determine the breathing rate of the employees using the respirators.
- Determine the workplace temperature and humidity.
Once these pieces of information are gathered, develop a respirator cartridge change schedule by using one of the following methods.
1. Conduct Experimental Tests
An end user, outside consultant or outside laboratory can perform experimental testing to determine cartridge service life once all pertinent information has been gathered about the workplace and the contaminants. A safety factor must then be applied to this service-life information to account for variances in actual workplace conditions. Currently, there is no set protocol for performing this service-life testing. For more information, go to www.osha.gov/SLTC/etools/respiratory/change_schedule_testing.html.
Many employers do not have the capability or the resources to perform their own tests. However, those employers that do will find this to be the most reliable method to determine cartridge life, especially when dealing with multiple contaminants.
2. Use Manufacturer's Recommendations
A manufacturer's service-life recommendations could come from the chemical supplier or, more likely, the respirator manufacturer. This method is not as reliable as conducting your own tests but is still a good alternative. Unfortunately, respirator manufacturers might not have information for your specific chemicals or compounds.
3. Use Mathematical Models
Mathematical models can assist testing through computer programs or complex mathematical formulas. The computer programs are available online or by using a CD-ROM from some manufacturers. If the computer programs aren't available, use predictive or descriptive mathematical models.
- Predictive model: A copy of the predictive model developed by G.O. Wood can be found at OSHA's website. This model looks at chemical and physical properties of compounds to determine cartridge life. However, this model is the least accurate method because it does not look at actual experimental data.
- Descriptive model: A copy of the descriptive model for cartridge testing also can be found at OSHA's website. The descriptive model looks at existing experimental data to set up a basic model. Once this model has been set up, it can be used to calculate values for points where experimental data is not available.
The descriptive model looks at actual experimental data, making it somewhat more accurate than the predictive model. But both models have drawbacks. Neither model relies heavily on experimental data, thus reducing accuracy, and both equations are very complex, opening them to human error. These models also only work well when you deal with single-contaminant situations.
One tool that can be used to help estimate organic vapor cartridge life is the "Rule of Thumb" method. This method is from chapter 36 of the AIHA publication "The Occupations Environment — Its Evaluation and Control". The rule of thumb is:
- If the concentration of the chemical is less than 200 ppm and the chemical's boiling point is greater than 70°C, you can expect a service life of eight hours at a normal work rate
- Service life is inversely proportional to work rate
- Reducing concentrations by a factor of 10 will increase the service life by a factor of five
- Humidity above 85 percent will reduce service life by 50 percent
**Note: This should not be the sole method of determining service life. It can only be used as a guide.**
Although it is no longer acceptable to use the warning properties of the chemicals as the only means of determining when to change cartridges, if odor is detected at any time, the cartridges must be replaced.

In the 1950's, Marcel Breuer began work on a master plan for the Benedictine monastic community at Saint John's Abbey and University in Collegeville. During the subsequent twenty years, Breuer designed ten buildings that were to be constructed largely of cast-in-place concrete. The majority of the projects were completed, but an important part of Breuer's master plan – the Abbey Guesthouse – was never designed. One of the 17 recipients of the 2009 AIA Housing Awards, this elegant project pays tribute to Breuer's original master plan.

Copy of the Flaming June, after Lord Frederic Leighton.
For me, this is one of the most beautiful paints of the Pre-Raphaelites. Unfortunately I never had the chance to see this paint (that is in a museum in Puerto Rico) but for what I could see in some photos, the light colors, the light on the background reflected on the sea and the transparency of the orange dress really impressed me.

Key messages
The use of amniotomy plus oxytocin for induction of labor may increase the risk
of postpartum hemorrhage and women dissatisfaction compared with vaginal
Further research are necessary to evaluate remain clinical scenarios, to define
under which clinical circumstances one intervention may be preferable to another.

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.
THE whole of Merseyside is still trying to make sense of one of the most astonishing days in the history of the great city of Liverpool after the Hillsborough Independent Panel report was revealed.
Was it a dream - or was it a nightmare?
In truth, it was both. Many families and survivors, having been let down on so many occasions over the last 23 years in their search for the truth, were "blown away" by the scale of yesterday's revelations.
And yet, while there was satisfaction that the Hillsborough Independent Panel managed to unearth so much evidence which confirmed so much of what campaigners had previously claimed, there was also pain - and plenty of it.
PAIN because of the sheer horror at the scale of the lies.
PAIN because of the sheer horror at the scale of the cover up.
PAIN because of the sheer horror at the scale of the incompetence of so many public officials.
Twenty-three years, four months and 28 days - it is to their eternal shame that the massed ranks of the Establishment blocked and obstructed the Hillsborough families, survivors and fellow campaigners for this long.
But their party is over.
After banging on the door for more than two dispiriting and soul-destroying decades, all those who simply wanted the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth have finally been allowed access to a hallowed room which has given them the power they have for so long craved: the power of knowledge.
If, as we heard in the lead-up to yesterday, the truth does have its own power, many organisations and individuals will today be shaking in their boots - and rightly so.
Truth has always been on the side of the Hillsborough campaigners - but now it's been made official.
And it is the families, survivors and all those who have fought for truth and justice who we must address - and applaud - first.
For while the utterly reprehensible invididuals within the Establishment have spent 23 years trying to bury the truth, these ordinary members of the public - thrown together by unspeakable tragedy and injustice - have acted in an extraordinary and exemplary way.
Their dignity, devotion, dedication and determination to uncover the facts - in memory of their loved ones, of their friends and fellow supporters - has been humbling.
Yesterday was a day of mixed emotions for them all. The report contained so much fresh information. It was information which could lead to a new inquest verdict and authority figures finally being held accountable - but it was information that was also heartbreaking.
It was heartbreaking for the families to learn that the lives of 41 of the 96 people who died could have been saved - if the emergency response had been a proper and professional one, as opposed to a catalogue of cock-ups.
It was heartbreaking for them to learn that there was a callous attempt to smear the reputations of the dead by carrying out police computer checks on those with a non-zero alcohol level.
It was heartbreaking that blood alcohol levels were tested on some survivors who attended hospital, as well (as we already knew) in all those who died.
On April 15, 1989 - and afterwards - Liverpool fans were effectively dismissed as worthless by people who apparently had no hesitation in launching a full-scale assault on their reputations for their own sickening, self-serving ends.
There were so many heartbreaking revelations and so many insults to the memory of the dead - and those fighting for the truth in their name - in the report.
But today, through all the heartbreak and tears, the families, survivors and everyone who refused to let the forces of darkness win, should feel proud - they have done themselves, their city and, most importantly, the 96 men, women and children who should never have been allowed to die at Hillsborough, proud.
At times, they have been castigated and mocked - by crass, unfeeling outsiders who had the gall to tell them to shut up, move on and accept what they had already been told.
But they overcame every obstacle and faced down every slight and setback, fuelled by the power of love - love for lost family members and friends and love for what many people in high places apparently view as an old-fashioned concept: justice.
And that we have finally got to this stage - the beginning of the end - is also, of course, down in no small part to the nine members of the Hillsborough Independent Panel, including the Right Reverend James Jones, Bishop of Liverpool, who chaired it brilliantly.
Where others failed dismally, the panel succeeded in supreme style - furnishing Liverpool and the country with a report which demands attention, demands action and, for the panel, demands our utmost respect and thanks.
History, however, will judge many other bodies and individuals - those named and shamed in the report - very differently.
The operational failure of the authorities on the day of the disaster was atrocious and inexcusable. Then to decide, coldly and clinically, to shift the blame onto the innocent supporters they were supposed to protect shows that some people will sink to any depths to save their own miserable skins - and jobs.
The commonplace rewriting of statements was disgraceful and deplorable enough, but trying to dig dirt on the dead in a sick bid to portray them as the villains of the piece? There really aren't any words to properly describe the low lifes who sanctioned such a warped activity.
The level of conspiracy would be derided as being outrageously far-fetched by even the most imaginative dramatist - but then this was the biggest cover-up in British legal history.
As for the future, it can only be when the families and survivors have taken stock of the near 400-page report that we can know the next step. It was their relentless campaigning that brought us this far and it must be left up to them, not legal advisers or politicians, or media, to decide where to go from here.
The Hillsborough Family Support Group has the high-powered backing of Michael Mansfield, QC and former solicitor general Lord Falconer. They are undoubtedly great men to have on your side in a legal battle, but we would politely urge them to listen carefully to what the families want - after all, they are the ones who have lived through every harrowing twist and turn these past 23 years and more.
The panel, it should be remembered, succeeded, in part, because it listened to the families and knew exactly what it was they were seeking from its work.
We have been given the truth and must now seek the justice to go with it, but the campaigners must be given time and space to first digest an extremely detailed, as well as devastating, report.
Only then will they be in a position to decide on what should be the first of the final chapters of the Hillsborough story.
There can never be a happy ending - how could there be? - but the truth has now been secured. Justice must surely follow.
God bless the 96 - your familes and many friends on Merseyside have done you proud.

Depending on the level of the horse, this is mine:
Walk/trot around arena a few times, occasionally going across diagonal & sometimes doing serpentines when I remember, on a loose rein.
Stop in the middle of the arena to flex from side to side at stand still, turn on the forehand/haunches in both directions, back up, and side-pass.
Then go out on the rail and do circles asking the horse to soften at the poll and have body at a curve walk/trot, switching sides by doing a figure eight inside the circle.
After a few minutes I go out on the rail and canter around the arena doing a figure eight to change direction and practice flying changes. After a few minutes bumping it up to an extended canter to get the legs stretched a little more.

Today is a day we'll never forget. Why, you ask? Because it's the day that Donald Trump has bestowed his hair-care secrets onto the world. For the first time ever, the Don gave a detailed account of his beauty routine in a recent interview with Rolling Stone. We'll tell our grandkids about this someday. If you want to have a luscious helmet-esque lion's mane like his, all you have to do is follow his simple steps!
"OK, what I do is, wash it with Head and Shoulders," he spilled (note to self: buy stock in Head and Shoulders), "I don't dry it, though. I let it dry by itself. It takes about an hour. Then I read papers and things… I also watch TV. I love Fox, I like Morning Joe, I like that the Today Show did a beautiful piece on me yesterday." Reading about yourself is a crucial step, but if you're not being covered by any major media outlets, googling yourself works just fine.
"OK, so I've done all that. I then comb my hair. Yes, I do use a comb. Do I comb it forward? No, I don't comb it forward." Damn it, THAT'S where we went wrong all those years! "I actually don't have a bad hairline. When you think about it, it's not bad. I mean, I get a lot of credit for comb-overs. But it's not really a comb-over. It's sort of a little bit forward and back. I've combed it the same way for years. Same thing, every time." And there you have it; one of the greatest follicle fashion enigmas of our time has been unraveled. And now that the mystery is gone, we can't help but feel a little sad.
