As I watched Houston Astros catcher Jason Castro get absolutely lit up in a home plate collision with Mat Gamel of the Milwaukee Brewers, I wondered to myself why this aspect of baseball was even necessary.
I'm obviously not the first person to suggest this, and I've read all the criticism of writers who have previously suggested such rule changes, but there's generally minimal logic to be found in the dissenting corner.
Their arguments usually go something like this:
"You're ruining the tradition of baseball!"
"It's always been this way, so why change it now?!"
"You could get hurt doing anything! What's next? No sliders?!"
This would be a straw man fallacy if these weren't the most common arguments I actually see against the idea.
Oh, and don't let me forget the best of all:
"It's people like you who are pusssssifying Amurrrrricccccaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr!"
Well, that's great.
Despite my mocking, I actually understand where they're coming from. No, really.
I was raised on traditional, hard-nosed baseball where doing things like wrecking a second baseman and blowing up the catcher was just considered "playing the game the right way". Hell, my great-uncle was initially reviled in Japan for busting up the double play, and I learned a lot of my baseball from a guy who taught my great-uncle how to play ball, my grandfather. So I don't feel the "you just don't understand" reasoning applies to me.
I do get it, but I didn't grow up believing in statistical analysis either, yet I was drawn to it anyway because I sought out things like logic and facts, not tradition and romanticization.
In that same vein, I can't see the logic or sense in continuing to allow collisions at home plate, and I'll even take it a step further than others and add takeout slides as well.
The hit on Jason Castro would be cited as a blow to the head of a defenseless player in the NFL, and would probably lead to a fine and perhaps a suspension. In the NHL, a player just got suspended for 25 games for an elbow/shoulder to the head of a defenseless player. Yet, in the MLB, for whatever reason, these actions are completely legal and legitimate.
In sports like football, hockey, basketball, and yes, even soccer, exerting physicality and strength over an opponent is not just "part of the game", but an active and legitimate strategy that is frequently employed by dominant teams.
Physicality in baseball? Eh … not so much.
No matter how often people repeat this rhetoric about beanballs and intimidation or whatever, baseball never was and never will be a contact sport. Exerting one's physicality on an opponent has minimal to no effect, especially in the modern game, so why even bother keeping this "tradition" alive?
Two roughly developed rule changes (that you can help me adjust) would instantly address the issues I have:
1) Treat home plate like any other base. The catcher may not interfere with the runner's path to the base and the runner may not collide with the catcher.
2) A player sliding or diving into a base must do so directly in line with the bag unless attempting to avoid a tag. In essence, this eliminates the need for the neighborhood play, as there will no longer be batters sliding five feet out of the basepath trying to take out the legs of infielders.
I can't see how the product on the field would suffer with those rule changes implemented. People don't watch baseball to see infielders get taken out or catchers blown up, because if that was the actual appeal of the sport, then they'd be out of business.
The reality is that baseball has been and always will be a finesse sport, regardless of how people try to twist it. As such, both rule changes would have a minimal impact on the actual game, but would help avoid a number of potentially horrific head, knee, and ankle injuries, which I think would both protect players and improve the quality of the product on the field.
Most importantly, it just makes sense.

cxmkmf - makes Makefiles for IRIS Explorer modules or types
cxmkmf [<rel_path>/usr/explorer ../../<cur_path>]
cxmkmf creates files named Imakefile and Makefile to govern creation of the IRIS Explorer modules and types in the current directory. The generated Makefile has all the rules necessary to build the modules and types in the directory; the shell command make all invokes these rules.
This command assumes some knowledge of Unix program development, specifically, the make(1) program. IRIS Explorer uses an X Windows extension to make called cximake which allows us to distribute a portable development mechanism. With cximake, you do not directly create the Makefiles used by make. Instead, Makefiles are generated automatically from files named Imakefile. IRIS Explorer takes this one step further. Within the subdirectories where you develop modules or types, cxmkmf creates the Imakefile for you from the information in the module resource file (with suffix .mres) or the type description file (with suffix .t) and then converts the Imakefile into a Makefile. cxmkmf is a derivative of the X Windows program xmkmf.
cxmkmf need not be invoked directly when building modules, as the Module Builder always writes a Makefile when saving the module resources. And once a Makefile exists, the shell command make Makefile suffices to create a new one; the Module Builder Build/Options menu item Build can also be used to build the modules and types in a directory.
The modules and types to be built are listed in the MODULES and TYPES files, respectively, in the current directory. The Module Builder automatically creates the MODULES file for you; you must edit the TYPES file by hand when developing IRIS Explorer types.
When you have IRIS Explorer installed in /usr/explorer, when the current directory is used for building modules or types, and when the current directory does not contain subdirectories, it is sufficient to invoke cxmkmf with no arguments. In this case, cxmkmf will compute the directory paths for you.
To build a Makefile in a directory containing subdirectories in which modules are to be developed, or when you have IRIS Explorer installed in a location other than /usr/explorer, you must supply the relative path arguments to cxmkmf. The <rel_path> argument is the relative path from the current development directory to the root directory (/) and <cur_path> is the path from the root directory to the current development directory. If you have installed IRIS Explorer in a location other than /usr/explorer, you must supply that location or $EXPLORERHOME in the first argument, and you will have to replace ../../ in the second argument with the relative path from $EXPLORERHOME to the root directory.
For example, if your current directory is /usr/people/bart/explorer/modules and you have IRIS Explorer installed in /usr/apps/explorer, then the correct command would be:
cxmkmf ../../../../../usr/apps/explorer ../../../usr/people/bart/explorer/modules
Any text in the file Imakefile.default in the current directory will be inserted in the generated Imakefile. This allows you to customize the generated Imakefile and Makefile using standard cximake conventions.
More description of the use of cxmkmf in building modules can be found in the README file for IRIS Explorer modules sources, $EXPLORERHOME/src/README. In particular, this covers the installation of modules and types through the make install command, as well as the effect of environment variables EXPLORERHOME, EXPLORERUSERHOME, and DEBUG in Makefile generation.
cxmkmf is found in $EXPLORERHOME/bin.
./MODULES ./TYPES ./Imakefile.default

At BP3, we've helped customers of many different industries innovate their business processes. Using BPM as a foundational discipline, we've tackled everything from Insurance to Telecom to Manufacturing to Gaming to Consumer Packaged Goods and Retailers. We bring the process expertise, and enough industry expertise to speak the language. You bring the deep knowledge of your own business and processes and where the pain is. Together we'll help build a better mousetrap.
financial services
In financial services we've tackled Insurance, Mortgage Insurance, Mortgage origination, Commercially Traded Securities, Asset Management, Retail Banking, Hedge funds, you name it. Financial Services firms are particularly sensitive to process and BP3 can help.
We worked with a very large insurer on helping them establish a process-centric deployment model combining iterative software development, the IBM BPM platform, and best practices in process decomposition to help them get an effective solution in place for the business. They did so, 75% faster than any other application ever launched.
The premier provider of financial services content in the world needed help establishing a Center of Excellence for BPM. We worked with their foundational team in a program management capacity, educating and providing best practice insight that spanned roles, governance, process management and improvement techniques, as well as provided real-time workshops. By using a BPM project as an anchor for the COE work, the client received the visceral experience needed to succeed with Business Process Management. Without a real project to center on, these types of activities usually have questionable results.
Another financial services firm was able to make their bond-processing work fungible - enabling them to smooth out their staffing peaks and valleys and employ a team of experts full-time on the process.
We worked with a large manufacturing company to retool their processes to take advantage of new core services and data foundations. We've worked with other manufacturers to manage the lifetime of spare parts and of bills of materials. In another case we helped define an RFQ process.
A large energy company in the United Kingdom needed help crafting a business case built on sound financial data for completely transforming the company into a process-driven organization. Based on deregulation, the competitive landscape overwhelmed what they felt they could deliver to their customers. They realized that aggressive process management was the answer to their dilemma.
Another energy company in Texas just needed expert advice to support their established BPM initiative - and reached out to BP3 to support their own efforts.
In another energy firm, we helped migrate them from Teamworks 6 to IBM BPM 7.5, and along the way to improve the maintainability of their solution set.

Thule Big Mouth Bike Mount
I've used the Thule Big Mouth Bike Mount for one season and it actually holds my downhill bike or road bike rock solid. Although I've always used a fork mount rack in the past, this setup is really nice for muddy rides when you don't want to throw a dirty wheel in the car. The only thing I don't love is that there is significant added height when you put the bike on top in this configuration.

The Symbian Anna update added support for Album artist field/tag to the Music player and if any tracks on an album are missing this information those tracks are shown individually under separate albums.
To correct your music library move affected tracks to your PC, add Album artist detail to those tracks by using, for example, some tag editor application or similar functionality (Advanced Tag Editor) in the latest version of Windows Media Player, transfer tracks back to device and refresh your music library.
Music ripped, for example, with latest version of Windows Media player will have correct Album artist detail in place as will music purchased/downloaded from Nokia Music Store.
For compilation albums with album artist information in the ID3 tag of a track and the same name in the track artist information, all tracks of an album are displayed as separate albums in landscape mode. This issue is fixed in Nokia Belle.

Pollution comes with very real costs
Re: "Release of toxic chemicals" appearing on the "Viewpoint" page April 30. The author expresses dissatisfaction with the EPA and our federal government for gathering data (picked up by The Gazette) that 92,788 pounds of potentially toxic chemicals had been released, the Drake Power Plant accounting for 79 percent of it. He chides the EPA for wasting tax dollars collecting and releasing information that is "absolutely meaningless to the community and is another example of wasteful spending of our federal tax dollars." Indeed, data are meaningless when reported without context or interpretation. That is neither the fault of the EPA nor the federal government.

The Fodor letterforms were created for the magazine published by Museum Fodor, Amsterdam. To save cost it was designed to be 'typeset' on their own electric typewriter. The resulting monospaced effect was combined with a background of orange overlaid with pink dots that provided a page grid to align the text to. The title set on the dot matrix formed the 'system' for construction of the 'digital effect' letterforms. Now Architype Fodor recreates these letterforms as a truly digital font.

Editorial: Thorp's exit is really the only way
In reality, the only way it could work out best for both was for Holden Thorp to leave UNC Chapel Hill. That he parachutes into the job of provost, the chief academic officer, at Washington University is to his credit.
The position is essentially the second-highest ranking on the St. Louis campus.
"For more than two years, there is no question that we have faced some of the most difficult issues to come before the university in decades," Thorp said. "We have met those challenges head on and put much-needed reforms in place. It's been painful, but we've become a better university as a result."
The statement of "head-on" is highly questionable. The flagship of the state's university system dripped, or had dripped for them, information that painted a dark picture of scandal never before seen on the picturesque campus. At one point, including those from outside entities, four investigations were ongoing at the same time.
Football players were found to have received improper benefits, academic misconduct involved athletes and non-athletes and two fundraising administrators — one of which created the other's job with Thorp's approval — resigned amid improprieties.
In one probe, the school hired former Gov. Jim Martin. But the academic violations his team found were all pinned on two people who no longer work for the university.
We're with the UNC System's board of governors, who questioned that conclusion two weeks ago. The only way UNC was going to get an independent review of its problems was to find someone not connected.
The State Bureau of Investigation is still looking for criminal violations. It is hard to imagine the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools' Commission on Colleges, the university's accrediting agency, not penalizing the school in some way for degrees awarded but not actually earned.
Thorp got praise from the folks in St. Louis. There's nothing surprising there. We agree he's got brilliant credentials from the classroom and labs — just count the dozen U.S. patents that are his.
But staying in Chapel Hill, even if in the labs, was no place for Thorp. Despite being beloved by the campus community, both are better to part ways and be fond of each other from afar.
It was the only way.

A community of people with Pre-Diabetes to guide and support your health journey. Ask a question, join a conversation, share experiences on prevention: nutrition, fitness, management.
Exercises for Diabetics
Aerobic Exercises
Aerobic Exercise makes your heart and bones strong, relieves stress, helps your insulin work better , and imporves blood circulation. For most people, it's best to aim for a total of about 30 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week. If you are trying to lose weight, you may need to exercise at least 60 minutes a day. If you haven't been very active recently, you can start out with 5 or 10 minutes a day and work up to more time each week. Or split up your activity for the day -- try a brisk 10-minute walk after each meal. Here are some examples of aerobic activity:
-take a brisk walk
-go dancing or take an aerobics class
-swim or do water aerobic exercise
-take a bicycle ride outdoors or use a stationary bicycle indoors
Strength Training
Strength Training helps build strong bones and muscles and makes every day chores like carrying groceries easier. With more muscle, you burn more calories, even at rest. Do your strengthening routine several times a week. here are some ways to do strength training:
-lift weights at home
-join a class to do strength training with weights, elastic bands, or plastic tubes
Flexibility Exercises
Flexibility Exercises, also called stretching, help keep your joints flexible and reduce your chances of injury during activities. Gentle stretching for 5 to 10 minutes helps your body warm up and get ready for aerobic activities and to cool down after your activity.
Tips to Remaining Active
Being Active Throughout the Day: In addition to formal exercise, there are many chances to be active throughout the day. Being active helps burn calories. Try these alternative activities:
-walk instead of drive
-take the stairs instead of the elevator
-work in the garden, rake leaves, or wash the car
-play with the kids
-carry things upstairs in two trips instead of one
-park at the far end of the shopping center lot and walk to the store
Before getting started on a new exercise routine, find out which activities will be safe for you. Talk to your health care team and see if they have any recommendations for you.
Decide what you'll do, make a plan and stick to it!

The couple now has two small children, and Huskic is making payments on a four-family flat big enough to accommodate his wife's extended family. He's also making payments on an Infiniti, bought to impress his people because he eventually hopes to be a gypsy king (a position many now accord to his wife's grandfather). "You have to be straight up to be a gypsy king," explains Huskic, "and you have to have all the information, go to meetings, politics, that kind of stuff. In Bosnia you have to be rich, too, but here everybody knows we can't get lots of money." He works full-time as a custodian for St. Margaret of Scotland, does odd jobs on the side and hopes to rent out the family's fourth flat. "I want to make sure they are nice people," he says, holding himself a little straighter. "I like to be clean, put out flowers."
He's a living contradiction of the "dirty thieving wanderer" stereotype, and he knows it. He also knows why: "Lots of gypsies never have any education, but I went to school for eight years." A math and language whiz, he says the other kids' taunting finally drove him away. "Everybody call us 'Gypsy, gypsy.' First grade they try to bother me, and I start to fight back. I say, 'Why you can tell me that? I have my name; you can call me my name. You have your own; I have my own.'
"When I was older, the boys were fighting with me," he continues, "saying, 'Gypsy-gypsy-gypsy,' and one day I take a chair and break the window and throw everything out. The policeman came, and I said, 'Would you not be mad if somebody tried to make you mad for nothing?' And then I stopped going to school. My aunt was really young, my age, so I took her with me to the office and said, 'I got married -- I'm not going anymore to school.' And the principal bought us a wedding present."
By the time he left school, he'd had a brush with "gypsy crime": "One of my friends had a machine and was making no-good money, crazy money," recalls Huskic. "I said, 'I don't want to be in jail for that. Somebody can kill you like a dog.' He said, 'You can just drive the car.' I said, 'No, I'm just 15 years old!' -- and finally I said, 'OK, let's go.' It had 16 valves, stick shift, really fast," he adds, the glee still alive. "We stop and sell 3,000 German marks, then go to Sarajevo, and he sells another couple thousand. I said, 'Let's go now -- don't do it anymore.' He wanted to sell it back home. I said, 'Anybody knows us there -- let's go, let's go.' Then a policeman caught us both. I told the truth, everything, and they let me go."
Gypsy crime isn't always so benign: "The Roma I worked with in Latvia were dealing drugs," notes Barbara Bogomolov, who now manages refugee-health services at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. "In many communities overseas, the Roma are relegated to a criminal fringe role. But I've seen no sign of crime in the Roma I've worked with here."
Europeans would find that hard to believe. Their crime reports throb with a new kind of outrage -- not clever-cute warnings of fortune-teller fraud but a bristling fury at the gypsies' audacity. Roma made headlines Jan. 21 when they cleared 74 acres of forest in the Rumanian village of Afumati, refused to give up the stolen wood and then allegedly attacked the policemen asking them to leave. On Feb. 1, when staff at a supermarket near London were squirted with breast milk by a lactating Romani refugee they'd caught stealing. On Feb. 13 in Tabor, just south of Prague, when they refused requests to leave a restaurant well after closing time. Three were injured in the resulting melee.
These accounts reek of fear -- not so much the traditional fear, of being exploited by thieves and tramps and fraudulent fortune-tellers, but a more primal fear, of the wild strangers who intrude on civilized society and shatter its rules. Roma are quintessentially Other: They pay no heed to conventions of home ownership, propriety or churchgoing morality; they have no stake in society, no mortgage or stock portfolio, few relationships of mutual respect with gadje. So until recently, they've had little incentive to stick around, fill out the census form, sign up to bring a casserole, show up for Little League.
Now economics and social pressures are forcing the issue.
In August 1996, Disney Adventures magazine wrote whimsically about a condition called "gypsyitis," its symptoms being "an urge to run away from it all and dance among the dandelions." Taken aback by protests, the editor insisted that this was "a positive portrayal of the Gypsy spirit." But outside the Magic Kingdom, the Roma are more focused on survival than on dandelion-dancing.
"No sign here of that romantic roving life," announced Richard Blystone, broadcasting for CNN from Usti nad Labem. "Most of East and Central Europe's 6 million gypsies have forgotten it, we were told, and don't really want it anymore -- but haven't been accepted staying put."

Equipoise: Amazing Strength and a Hard, Chiseled Look
Like most anabolic steroids in use today, Equipoise® was originally developed as a veterinary steroid, primarily for horses. Its purpose, like all veterinary steroids, was to bulk up the animals with additional muscle mass and definition. The results gained with equipoise naturally created an interest in the sports and bodybuilding community.
Equipoise is compared by many to Dianabol, primarily because of the great chemical similarity between the two. However, their usage and effects are actually quite different. Equipoise is an injectable anabolic, while Dianabol is ingestible, due to its 17 alpha alkylated (17aa) alteration, which is what allows it to be assimilated through oral application. There are other important differences, as well.
Trenbolone the most potent injectable anabolic steroid - can it work for you?
Trenbolone, often referred to as tren or fina, is probably the most potent injectable anabolic steroid to be found. Comparable to nandrolone in structure, bodybuilders, athletes and models love tren for its distinct advantages for rapidly burning off fat and packing on muscle fiber. But, what are the pros and cons of trenbolone and will it work for you?
Like many anabolic steroids, trenbolone was originally developed as a veterinary steroid, with its primary purpose being an increase in feed efficiency. In other words, less feed to achieve more muscle mass. Fina originally took the form of pellets, which were embedded beneath the hide of cattle to minimize weight loss during transport.

Another school year means advancing a grade level further, but sponsored child Evalyn in the Philippines is most excited to learn new lessons and meet new friends and teachers.
The high school dropout rate in Romania is unacceptable. According to a Romanian Ministry of Education report from 2009, 25 percent of teens in rural Romania do not attend high school.
Recently, a group of nine youth, six of them sponsored, were invited to participate in a photography workshop. The children learned the basics of photography and then were loaned cameras to take pictures highlighting the problem of school dropout rates in their community.
My grandmother was a teacher. My mom taught special education. My brother teaches middle school math. My sister is on the school board. Clearly, the importance of a good education was instilled in me from a young age.
Still, the teacher gene is not dominant in my DNA. I think it might have something to do with my patience -- or lack thereof.
Although teaching is not in my vocation, I understand and value the work of teachers across the United States and around the world. These dedicated servants are molding the future generations, often in difficult circumstances.
Children at this primary school in Mutomo, Kenya, are faced with deep challenges, including a lack of ample desks and writing surfaces, which forces students to write with books on their knees. (Lucy Murunga/WV)

Shumlin's desperate search for taxes
By John McClaughry
Posted May 3, 2007
Shabby, desperate attempts to find something new to tax are now playing themselves out in Montpelier. The principal actor is the Senate Pres. Pro Tem Sen. Peter Shumlin, D-Windham.
As every legislator who campaigned last fall well knows, the number one issue afflicting Vermonters all across the state is the rising cost of public education. Those rising costs translate into rising property tax rates. The people demanded action.
But Shumlin opened this year's Legislature, not with a focused effort to deal with education costs, but with two weeks of "seminars" on the menace of global warming. Once everyone was suitably indoctrinated in the urgent need for action to save the planet from Al Gore's heat death, Shumlin planned to push through the sweeping environmental program of the Vermont Public Interest Research Group (VPIRG).
There were several key ingredients in the VPIRG anti-heat death program. One was to get people out of big, gas-consuming vehicles. That was the rationale for a $150 surtax on the purchase of minivans, SUVs, and pickup trucks. The revenues from the tax would be used to subsidize the purchase of upscale hybrids for people who can afford $35,000 cars, plus little teeny-weeny cars for everybody else. That scheme collapsed in mid-April when even enviro Democrats were too nervous to do it.
Another key ingredient was creating a permanent "efficiency utility" to explain to businesses and homeowners how to get by using less heating fuels. This "thermal efficiency" program was to be paid for with a new tax on heating oil, propane, and natural gas. That scheme — deceitfully labeled a "heating fuel savings charge" — crashed when people who heat their homes and businesses found about it.
By late April, the senator from VPIRG was getting desperate to find new tax dollars to fund his environmental initiatives. So he turned to a favorite shakedown target that, unlike car owners and heating fuel users, doesn't have a vote: Vermont Yankee. Shumlin also represents Windham County. Hitting Vermont Yankee with a new tax is popular with that county's anti-nuclear activists who rightly view him as their favorite politician.
Recall that in November 2003, in return for Department of Public Service's (DPS) support for its application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for a reactor power uprate, Entergy, the owner of Vermont Yankee, agreed to pay the state $7.8 million to clean up algae in Lake Champlain, 180 miles away, plus $2.1 million to pay for more low-income home heating assistance.
The lake cleanup plan fund was nixed by the Public Service Board, but in granting uprate approval, Entergy was ordered to put $4.5 million aside to protect ratepayers from sticker shock if the plant shut down, and then make quarterly payments of $625,000 to the state.
Two years after making that deal, Entergy sought regulatory permission to store spent fuel rods in concrete casks, instead of a cooling pool. "Aha!" cried the Legislature. "Entergy needs another approval. Let's make it pay us $4 million a year from now until 2012, and we'll decline to object to how the plant stores its used rods (on its own property, at its own expense)."
So, to avoid a long and uncertain political and legal battle, Entergy, the state's lowest cost, most reliable energy producer, agreed to pay the state's new Clean Energy Development Fund as much as $28 million over the next seven years. The state will use the money to subsidize VPIRG's favorite renewable energy projects, chief among which are legions of already-subsidized 420-foot wind turbine towers marching along Vermont's mountain ridges.
Last year, the Legislature earmarked $1.3 million in the fund to be used for a variety of projects: $500,000 to support small-scale wind and solar; $485,000 to support CowPower projects; $100,000 went to the Agriculture Agency for renewable energy development; $100,000 went to an assisted living project in Windham County; $65,000 went to DPS to defray administrative expenses; $50,000 was set aside for the upcoming public participation process; and $50,000 was used to help the University of Vermont and Middlebury College examine the construction of combined heat and power projects.
Now it's 2007. The senator from VPIRG, observing that he was not a party to the 2005 agreement, proposes to tax the spent fuel rods that Vermont Yankee already agreed to pay $28 million for permission to store. He also proposes to impose a special tax on any revenues the company might make by selling on the spot market the 20 percent of its power not already under a long-term contract. This dishonorable stunt would shatter the 2005 agreement that Entergy, acting in good faith, thought it had sealed with its $28 million.
But on April 26 that scheme collapsed from legislative opposition (notably from the more conscientious House Speaker Gaye Symington, D-Jericho, who had been a party to the earlier agreement). So the senator from VPIRG proposed another even more far-fetched new tax: a 35 percent tax on any "unanticipated revenues" that only one particular business — Vermont Yankee — might earn from selling its product. Even liberal senators gagged on this fantastic proposal, which if adopted would forever poison Vermont's business climate.
Both the 2003 and 2005 deals between the state and Entergy are examples of government extortion. For enough protection money, the state agreed not to strangle Entergy's plans to produce more cheap, dependable power and improve the management of its waste. This is just what any Mafia racketeer would do if he had the power.
That's bad enough. But the senator from VPIRG now wants to break the latest deal, and hammer Entergy again. Even the Mafia wouldn't do that.

Effects Steering Committee to disseminate and implement follow-up guidelines, and (2) from sitting on the American Academy of Family Physicians' Commission on Clinical Policy and Research, the body that reviews and collaboratively develops guidelines that are adopted by members of the American Academy of Family Physicians.
Evidence-based guidelines are useful in promoting high-quality care, standardizing and facilitating the care of complex patients, and providing a rubric or a set of accepted measures for process evaluation. While they are valuable, there are some pitfalls associated with the use of guidelines. First, the large number of published guidelines may overwhelm and confuse practicing physicians. Second, some physicians reject guidelines because they may not take into consideration the complexities facing their patients. Guidelines may also be perceived to be dictating clinical decisions.
The Children's Oncology Group (COG) long-term follow-up guidelines were developed by a late effects committee cochaired by Melissa Hudson and Wendy Landier over the course of several years. COG is a 244-institution clinical trial consortium. The pediatric community has over the past 15 years wrestled with the issues under discussion at this workshop. Much has been learned from the pediatric experience, and it would be unfortunate if this experience were not applied productively to the challenges ahead in the adult survivor arena.
The goal of the COG guideline effort was to standardize and enhance follow-up care throughout the life span of the survivor. The focus has been on screening for late effects rather than screening for relapse or recurrence, as these were already embedded in ongoing protocols. The COG guidelines start to apply at 2 years following the completion of cancer therapy. The intended users of the guidelines are clinicians who provide health care for pediatric cancer survivors regardless of their age and their care setting.
To develop the guidelines, more than a year was spent conducting in-depth literature reviews, synthesizing the literature, achieving multidisciplinary group consensus, and submitting the guidelines to external review. Some refinements have been made following their initial dissemination in September 2003.
A hybrid approach was used in guideline development. The large body of evidence linking therapeutic exposures and late effects was reviewed and scored according to quality. There are very few studies that examine how surveillance affects outcomes, in part because of the relatively small numbers of pediatric cancer survivors. Consequently, expert clinical experience and principles of screening in the general population and other high-risk groups was relied on for the aspects of care considered as part of the guideline development process.
Version 2.0 of the long-term follow-up guidelines is available online at www.survivorshipguidelines.org. The guidelines are based on therapeutic

Phaser effect plug-in with accurate analog unit modeling.
Fazortan; the controllable space phaser is another great effect from D16 Group's 'SilverLine Collection'. D16 didn't cut any corners with this effect unit; it's the analog sound and feel that everyone desires. Total control of the Phase shift parameter provides you with adjustability and allows you to obtain the desired contour with high precision. Thanks to the analog modeling technique, D16 was able to implement all-pass filters comprising characteristics identical to its analog counterpart. Fazortan takes on the similar sound and primary functions of some classic 70's phaser units, but its extensive parameter controls is where Fazortan separates itself from its retro influences.
Fazortan allows you full control of both LFOs simultaneously. Unlike other hardware phaser units, Fazortan's LFO works in various waveform modes: square, sine, ascending saw, descending saw, and random. By using both of the LFOs simultaneously you can dial in sounds that hardware owners could only dream of. Guitarists and keyboard players will love Fazortan's ability to emulate the lush and rich sound of classic rotary speakers or you can use the unit to its maximum capacity for more FX oriented results.

Product description
Since its publication in 1998 Craft Lessons has become a mainstay of writing teachers, both new and experienced. Readers value the pithy, practical lessons--each printed on one page--and appreciate the instructional language geared to three grade-level groupings: K-2, 3-4, and 5-8. In the decade since Craft Lessons ' publication the world has changed in many ways, yet one thing has remained constant: teachers continue to feel starved for time. With new curriculum mandates, daily specials, "pull-outs," and precious time devoted to test preparation, the situation has never been worse, and the need for a succinct resource like Craft Lessons has never been greater. The features that made Craft Lessons so valuable have been augmented. This edition includes: Seventeen brand new craft lessons; many based on veteran teachers' observations about typical student writing. Revisions to other craft lessons: model texts that have gone out of print have been replaced with current titles, and the resource materials sections have been expanded. New thinking about teaching elements of craft and the reading-writing connection. Two new indexes: a handy subject index to make it easier to find specific craft lessons, and an index that shows how these craft lessons can be integrated into Ralph and JoAnn's curriculum resource on the ""qualities of writing""--Ideas, Design, Language, and Presentation. The 95 lessons in this book provide a wealth of information for teaching leads, character, endings, stronger verbs, and much more. This new edition reestablishes Craft Lessons as the crucial "desert island book" for harried writing teachers everywhere.

I'm not trying to nitpick, I just like to be real clear on my understanding of what others say, so hope you take it in that light...
When you say "I gotta look at my morality and conduct up to that point that I started on step 4.", I have the same question...even if it's no longer current/present in your life?
For example, what if as a child you pulled the wings off of flies - - but by the time you were a teen you realized the error of your ways. Is that conduct still relevant in a 4th Step? And if so, why, if that conduct was abandoned long ago? That's the piece I don't get....can't some of our issues/defects have been resolved prior to AA, and if so, why rehash them if they were already put to bed?
I'm not arguing, I'm looking to better understand....
Love this -

Democrats accuse GOP of Marion County power grabJanuary 23rd, 2013 at 11:24 am by Jim Shella under Jim Shella's Political Blog
Marion County Democrats are accusing Republicans of an attempt to give GOP Mayor Greg Ballard more authority. Democratic leaders came to the Statehouse Wednesday to protest a bill that would eliminate the four at-large members of the City County Council. They are all Democrats.
The bill would also shift the balance of power in the City County Building by giving the Mayor a line item veto along with the ability to change numbers in the budget. 'We believe this is a simple power grab," said City County Council President Maggie Lewis. "It's a power grab, it's an attempt to take away the authority the City County Council has."
Rep. Ed DeLaney (D-Indianapolis) said lawmakers have more important issues to consider. "Why is the state legislature being asked to solve what is not a problem at a local level other than a political problem?" he asked.
A spokesman for Mayor Ballard says the bill in question is not part of his legislative package but the author, Senator Mike Young (R-Indianapolis,) says it was drafted with input from the Mayor's staff.
The bill is not yet scheduled for a hearing.

Social-Dynamix: Learn The Secrets To Overcoming Shyness and Social Anxiety, and Put Your Social Life on Steroids in Just 21 Days!
The sad thing is most people just accept it. I did for years until I reached the point where enough was enough. I started actively finding solutions. I found people who had the same problem that I had who overcame their shyness and social anxieties. I created my own system with that knowledge, and now I would like to show you how you can have the same success that myself and so many other have come to have using this proven system.
You may have been given some bad advice in the past, but it was probably given out of love. "You just have to put yourself out there.", "You'll get over it after you get to know them.", "All you have to do is be friendly." The advice meant well, but did it really help? People who have never been shy or suffered from social anxiety will never know what is going on in your head. You've probably searched for some advice on the internet (That's where I started years ago). The problem that you might have discovered is that most of the people who write or teach "How to get over your shyness and social anxiety" have never been shy or had social anxiety!
When you are able to eliminate your limiting beliefs then you can move on to confronting and overcoming your shyness and social anxiety. With a few simple techniques, this can be accomplished. When you are able to identify when your shyness and social anxiety is about to come in to play, you begin to have power over it and when you apply just a few simple techniques, you will be able to overcome it!
There are unwritten rules when it comes to social interaction and this is where most people drop the ball because they weren't taught how to do it the right way. If done the right way, you'll be quickly on your way to an awesome social life (or even love life).
People spend their precious money investing in stocks, real estate,and commodities. They spend money on TVs, video games, DVDs, and junk food. The people who have had many successes in life made an investment in themselves. Start investing in things that add value to your life. You are the most important person in your life.You should invest in yourself to become your best self.
What areas of your life have been affected because of shyness and social anxiety? If you were able to overcome this problem, would your life change for the better? How would your life change if you were free of this burden?
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I appreciate everything. For years, I let my social anxiety rule my life. It was keeping me back from doing so many thing I have always wanted to do. The way that you have broken this program down made everything so easy to understand. My biggest problem was I never knew where to begin. I think that is the problem for a lot of people. If they only had a plan! I can not speak highly enough of you or this program. You helped me to help myself. Best investment I ever made. Thank you, Bryan Ladner
Wow! I could have been done with all my social problems years ago if I knew this stuff. I never would have thought getting over my shyness could have been this simple. For years I have been living my life on autopilot. I always just accepted the fact that I was just born this way and there was nothing I could do about it. I WAS WRONG! I finally feel like I have power over this. Man, this is so awesome. I can not express enough gratitude for this. I never thought anyone understood what I was going through. The advise that I would get in the past was "You just have to do it." That's all fine and well, but what was it that I was supposed to do? Thanks for everything! Kristian Davy
Anthony, I used to spend my nights sitting in my room. I was never one to get out because of my SA. I never had that many friends. Growing up I pretty much kept to myself and immersed myself in books, TV, and video games. I knew once I attended college that I would have to meet new people. So, I'm so glad I ran into this before I went. I have made friends very easy because of the things that you have taught in this program. I used to fear having conversation with strangers. I even feared talking to people who I knew. After going through this I realized that it really isn't difficult to do. Now, I look forward to meeting new people…

Read Poems by
George Zamalea
Bloody was the scene. November 1868
Was the beginning and the end of so much blood!
The spreading echoes
And fade extended far, down the village of Southern
Cheyenne, behind the depth of the Sand Greek Massacre,
With the shine of women and children
Was the luxuriant of a man named Boy General?
Or the soulless Long Hair assassin!
In throng books of history whose branches gleaming
With silly prospect, given Glory Hunter
With his tilted sombrero, an accord hero
But we must extent our eyes far way back
And took him as a butcher and a murder,
In pencil-and-stones as the monster that was that Cuter.
The scene was November of 1868—-
Whence its greatness of it was the pure blood—
The spread lot of children's hearts
And voices that never die! Resounded far
In today melody, the happy lot, the lake of gusts.
Bloody was the victory from yesterday, but today,
As a fine arm, down the depths and once again,
From whom our past stand, it must create
By the bloody freedom that a man named Glory Hunter—-
Long Hair has no more—
Who's slated us to be stronger?
Fighting the rules from a past. What rules? You must ask.
The rules that we know—being a free Indian,
Being an Indian at last!

I recently received a warning about using the politically incorrect term "towel heads," so please note: we all need to be more sensitive in our choice of words.
I have been informed that the Islamic terrorists that hate our guts and want to kill all of us do not like to be called "towel heads" since the item they wear on their heads is not actually a towel but a small folded sheet.
Therefore, from this point forward please refer to them as "Little Sheet Heads." Thank you for your cooperation.

Problems with pond's mosquitoes
I have called the (county) office twice last week and was told they would have an inspector call me back concerning the stagnant water/pond in my backyard and the yards of my neighbors.
I live in Lee Farms and it is an extreme health hazard, and our large oaks and shrubs have all died. Mosquitoes are a horrible problem as well.
Guess I need to call the EPA in Pensacola because I've been unable to get help at county level.

Road closed signs are for everyone
At Southside Center, there is a road closed sign in the mornings when pre-k students are being unloaded from buses.
People will drive around the sign, pass buses being unloaded and are surprised when the resource officer asks the driver to obey the sign.

Plenty of children's activities in Crestview
God has a plan; this isn't even my church, but I personally think it's amazing. There is another theater, there are more sports stores, and if someone were truly upset or whatever, then who is to stop you from opening up your own business.
I also think there is plenty of stuff for children to get involved in my town called Crestview. Ever heard of Awana? Sports? Dance? Music? Art? Fishing? Martial Arts? Art? I could go on.
We should be supporting this change; just my opinion. Stay blessed!
