Human Health and Medical Fun Facts
Her Curvy Hips Make Her Smarter
Smart women grow curvy hips! University of Pittsburg and University of California studied about 16,000 women and reported the following in 2007: curvy hips indicate smart women who will deliver intelligent children! Women should have fat in their hips, rather than their waist, because hip fat is usually high on omega-3 fatty acids (fat that develop the brain), while waist fat is high on omega-6 fats that do not develop the brain.
Artificial Food Coloring=Crushed Bugs
Asian longhorn beetle: bright enough to color my yogurt!
Yes, if you see food labels that read "artificial coloring" and "color added" that means most likely you'll be eating bugs along with other ingredients. The FDA does not require companies to be more specific about their food coloring. Therefore, companies choose not to label "crushed beetles for red dye", a label that might discourage consumers from buying their products.
Dannon admits to using cochineal beetles as a dye to some of its yogurt products.
In 2009, Michael Jacobson has attempted to pressure the FDA to require more specific labeling for the sake of those who might have allergies.
Toothbrush, a Dangerous Instrument
Each year about 2,500 people go to emergency rooms to be treated because of injuries caused by using a toothbrush—most injuries happen when a fall occurs while brushing (Food & Drug Administration).
Bottled Water Contains More Bacteria Than Tap Water
EPA standards for tap water are much stricter than FDA standards for bottled water. Result: tap water is cleaner and cheaper.
Two independent studies confirmed the above statement.
The first study at Case Western Reserve University tested 39 samples of bottled water and found that 15 of the samples contained about twice as much bacteria as Cleveland tap water.
Another study by the Natural Resources Defense Council found that about 18% of bottled water brands contained more bacteria than allowable, besides other chemicals found in the bottled water.
Also about 1/3 of bottled water sold in the US is tap water. Aquafina (Pepsi product) and Dasani (Coke product) are nothing but tap water.
Antidepressant's Side Effect: No Romance!
Anthropologist Helen Fisher and psychiatrist James Thomson collaborated in a study that concluded that antidepressants alter brain chemistry resulting in diminishing a desire for romance. Antidepressants decrease levels of dopamine (a brain chemical of pleasure that plays an important role in creating an urge for love and romance).
In the study, women who took antidepressant looked at attractive men in photos and thought the men to be not so attractive.
Daylight Saving Time Causes Heart Attacks
According to the US News and World Report, during the first week of daylight saving time, there is a 5% increase in heart-attack incidents (due to people not getting enough sleep). There is a slight decline in heart-attack incidents during the first week after daylight saving time ends.
The moral of the story: get plenty of sleep to reduce the risk of heart attack.
Another study published by CNN in 2009 shows that the average American gets 6.7 hours of sleep daily. In 2001, the average American slept 7 hours.
Microwave Oven Radiation: Is It Harmful?
Microwaves meeting legal standards should not emit radiation more than 5 milliwatts per square centimeter (2 inches around the microwave). Supposedly, this emission is less than what you get from using a cellular phone.
Also standing 2 feet away from the microwave will reduce radiation by 100 times than standing 2 inches away (New York Times, 2007).
Laser Printers: Dangerous Emissions
Australian air-quality inspectors studied the emissions of 62 laser printers. They found that 27% of laser printers emitted toner grains into the air. Toner tiny grains when breathed into the lungs could be compared to second-hand smoke. Some laser printers' emissions were dense enough to almost match pollution from second-hand cigarette smoke.
Breast Feeding
Breast feeding by Picasso
Breast-Fed=Higher IQ
90% of breast-fed children get higher IQ points than those who are formula fed. 90% of babies carry a specific genes needed to digest breast milk fats into polyunsaturated fatty acids that develop the brain. Those babies end up with more IQ points.
This research study was done in England and New Zealand in 2007 and included more than 3,000 children.
Infant-Formula Industry: Unethical Tactics
In summer 2007, The Health and Human Services Department ran an ad campaign showing health risks for infants who are not breast-fed. Soon the infant-formula industry, through lobbying, was able to force the Health and Human Services Department to replace its ads by new ones that do not mention any risks and only emphasize benefits of breast feeding.
Hot is Carcinogen
The Los Angeles Times reported in April 2009 about a province in Northern Ireland (Golestan) whose population suffered from esophageal cancer. Scientists eventually concluded that the cause was drinking hot tea. The people there drank their tea at about 158 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fish, Good for Your Sanity!
Junk food makes people insane! The increase in mental disorders in the last several years could be attributed to the increase in the consumption of an unhealthy diet. Foods with omega-3 fatty acid (mainly vegetables and fish) help keep the brain healthy. People eat 1/3 less vegetables and 2/3 less fish than they did 50 years ago (BBC News).
The Flu
The flu kills about 36,000 people each year in the US—90% of those who die of the flu are 65 or older.
Laughter, a Good Medicine
Researchers in Norway surveyed 54,000 people and found that a sense of humor can extend life for those who are sick. Those that had cancer and a sense of humor were 70% more likely to survive than their counterparts with little or no sense of humor.
Maggots or Antibiotics?
Maggots are more effective than modern antibiotics for treating open wounds, especially that bacteria are developing immunity to antibiotics. Maggots on open wounds will eat all decaying flesh within three days, will leave healthy flesh alone, and will not cause any side effects.
Who Are Your Sleeping Partners?
Average pillows and mattresses contain millions of fungi cells from 16 fungi species. This fungi (normally found in damp and moldy places) come from night time sweating. The average person sweats about 100 liters each year. In addition to fungi, other bed partners are dust mites—mattresses gain a pound or more each year from dust mites.
What's on Your Baby's Skin?
Phthalates is a chemical that might harm a baby's reproductive system. It is used in creams, lotions, shampoos, and powders to preserve color and fragrance. However, companies are not required to list it as an ingredient, and they don't. Good luck finding the right baby lotion or shampoo with no phthalates!
Results, published in the Los Angeles Times, of urine tests of 163 infants found that 100% of the babies carried some kind of a level of phthalates.
Soda for My Toddler
28% of kids between ages 2 and 5 have at least one tooth cavity thanks to soda drinks and sweets (USA Today, 2007).
Butt Fat Better for Your Brains
Butt and thigh fat is much better for your brains than belly fat. Mid-life large belly not only increases the risk of diabetes and heart problems, but also Alzheimer's, according to a new study by Rachel Whitmer and her colleagues. The study examined medical records of 6,583 people who are members of a health organization called Kaiser Permanente of Northern California. The study traced people from the time they were middle age to their 70s and 80s. People with mid-life bellies were 3 times more likely to develop dementia later in life.
Financial Benefit from Smokers and Obese People
Smokers and obese people financially benefit governments with socialized healthcare, according to a study by Netherlands National Institute for Public Health and the Environment. Healthy people live longer and require more health care than smokers and obese people. The study completed in 2008 concluded that healthy people need about $417,000 in healthcare expenses during their lifetime. Obese people, who on average died 4 years before healthy people, came in second place costing $371,000. Smokers, who on average died 7 years before healthy people, required the most inexpensive healthcare during a lifetime, $326,000.
Fat America Growing Fatter
In the early 1990s, not a single state in America had an obesity rate of over 15%. In a 2007 study, not a single state had an obesity rate below 15%. As a matter of fact, Colorado emerged as the thinnest state with an obesity rate of 17.6%. Mississippi emerged as the fattest state with an obesity rate over 30%.
Could busy Mom and Dad be the problem?
A study finding published in Scientific America, in 2008, stated that babies who spend more time at day cares and with baby sitters gain weight. And many babies carry that weight on to childhood and after. The study included over 8,000 babies.
Your Computer, Your Sleep, and Your Heart
Turn the TV/computer off and go to bed! Getting 5 hours of sleep doubles your chances of heart attack, according to a British study that tracked 10,000 people over an eight-year period. People get less sleep today than they did in the past mainly because of using electronic devices late into the night.
Your Sewage Shall Find You Out!
Sewage plants tell all! Researchers at Oregon State University, through testing a spoon of water from a community's sewage plant, were able to know what legal and illegal drugs are being used in the community. This type of testing will help authorities be aware of what type of illegal drugs are being used in town, what days, and by what amounts.
Fight Cancer with Bright Colors
It's all in the color!
The brighter the produce color is the better antioxidant it is. Blueberries (and other bright-colored berries), red cabbage, and eggplant are a few good antioxidant foods. In a study, Monica Giusti found that these produce not only stopped tumors from growing, but also killed about 20% of tumor cells.
Yes, "life isn't fair"—Just Get Over It
A study found that those who believe they are receiving undeserved injustices in their life are 55% more likely to have a heart attack. Therefore, the best thing you can do for your heart is to get over the idea that life isn't fair.
Long-term use of antibiotics more than doubles the risk of breast cancer in women (Journal of the American Medical Association).

Gas-phase temperature imaging in a nano-particle flame synthesis reactor with multi-line NO-LIF thermometry
In: European Combustion Meeting
Chania, Greece (2007), paper 5-2
Buchaufsatz / Kapitel / Fach: Maschinenbau
Multi-line NO-LIF temperature imaging was applied to measure two-dimensional gas-temperature fields in a lowpressure, premixed flat-flame nano-particle generator. This was the first time this new technique was applied in a low-pressure combustion system. Flame temperatures between 1500 and 700 K were measured in a 175 × 50 mm field with a precision of ±1 %. The data are of great use for the simulation of nano-particle formation based on kinetic modeling. Pressure effects on the flame structure and stability were investigated. The laser fluence was controlled in order to avoid saturation of the LIF signal, which occurs above a fluence of 12 kW/cm2 at reactor conditions and influences the temperature results.

There are 2 Duty/Standby pump motor driven by 2 AB PowerFlex 40 VFDs, the operation conditions shall be same as similar propose for these. But, it is found that "Digital In1~4 Sel A051~A054" in both VFD are set with different value by supplier, I assumed that it is incorrect, am I right?
I tried to study the Manual of PowerFlex 40, but it is hard to understand the description of these Digital In 1~4, if any one can help me to understand it?
The setting of A051~A054 in VFD A are: 4, 4, 5, 11;
The setting of A051~A054 in VFD B are: 6, 0, 5, 11;
31 May 2011 03:59 PM
Yes I can understand the settings
The two VFDs as described are setup differently. Without very detailed information its hard to see why. I wouldnt expect to se them that different without a very good reason.
anyway here goes. Both VSDs have DI3 set so that when this has a 1 on it the key pad becomes the local control IE the speed and start/stop are controlled by the ketpad.
Also both VSDs are set up for DI4 to be a jog forward button and the drive will ramp up to a frequency set by A078 at a ramp set by AO79 when DI4 is 1. When DI4 becomes zero the drive will ramp back to zero frequency.
For Drive A Digital inputs 1 and 2 both set to preset frequency input.
If either of these inputs are raised to 1 the the drive will run at a preset frequency.
For Drive B Digital 1 will will enabvle the start sto and frequency to be controlled via the serial port and digital 2 is diabled (not used).
So I suspect that if you look at your drawings then the application you have will use 4 on both drives to control which pump runs. I would expect digital input 3 to be connnected in both cases to be connected to remote/local control switches.
Good practice would be for both drives identically proggramed and unused inputs to be disabled.
I hope this is helpful.

The Boscia Konjac Cleansing Sponge ($18) recently launched and I couldn't be happier as it has made me a double cleanser lover. I have a few Konjac Sponges, they aren't really a new beauty epidemic however, Boscia will likely make them a more wide spread phenomenon here in the US for those that aren't terribly familiar with Asian beauty tools and products.
As much as I'd like to be a double cleaning person I'm not. When I get home at the end of the night I typically remove my eye makeup with an oil based eye makeup remover and proceed to follow up with a cleansing oil. Occasionally if I have the time I do a double cleanse. Double cleanses consist of cleansing first with a cleansing oil and following up with a lathering cleanser or foaming cleanser of some sort.
Konjac Sponges kinda make you a believer of double cleansing because they are great gentle exfoliating sponge that really get your face super squeaky clean.
Take a look!

|The Game Story:
|QUEENS, N.Y. - The 11th-ranked Villanova Wildcats (9-3, 1-2) wouldn't take the lead until 4:06 remaining in the fourth quarter, but goals from Michael Vigilante (Massapequa, N.Y.) and Matt Bell (Severna Park, Md.) would solidify the 11-9 victory over St. John's (4-8, 2-3) on Saturday afternoon.
The driving rain at DaSilva Memorial Field made for sloppy play on both sides as the Wildcats posted their first win in conference play this season.
Head Coach Michael Corrado states, "We got off to a slow start but played a good second half. I'm proud of the way our guys stepped up in the fourth quarter and made a run to get the win." Corrado continued, "It was important for us to get our first BIG EAST win today and that's what we did."
Junior Kevin Cunningham (Garden City, N.Y.) led the team with four points via two goals and two assists, while sophomore Jack Rice (Baltimore, Md.) and Vigilante each contributed three points apiece.
Villanova found themselves down 3-0 just six minutes into the contest as the Red Storm notched three scores in the opening minutes from Keegan, Fitzgerald and Switzer.
VU's Rice responded at the 7:38 mark off a nice transition play from defenseman Ryan McDonagh (Huntington, N.Y.), and would net his second goal of the game and 25th of the season just over a minute later off a Cunningham assist to get the `Cats to within one at 3-2.
St. John's would match their biggest lead of the game with scores from Keegan, Holenstein and Switzer to begin the second quarter up 6-2 over Villanova. Cunningham would break nearly 15 scoreless minutes at the 6:56 mark off an unassisted goal to cut the STJ lead to 6-3, while the Red Storm and Wildcats would trade goals to end the half at 7-4.
Villanova would come out of the break with a huge rally and change in momentum, netting three straight goals from Small, Cunningham and Henrich to the game at 7-7. STJ's Switzer and McArdle would respond and extend the Red Storm lead at 9-7 after finding the net at the 7:17 and 6:02 marks, ending the quarter with a two-goal cushion going into the final stanza.
The fourth quarter would prove to be the highlight of the contest for the Wildcats, shutting out St. John's and netting four unanswered goals. Bell would bookend the quarter with a pair of goals at the 10:20 and 3:20 marks, while Rice and Vigilante would capture the game-tying and game-winning scores at the 9:35 and 4:06 marks to solidify the BIG EAST victory.
Despite the closely-contested match, Villanova would dominate in shots (39-26), ground balls (29-19) and faceoffs (13-24).
Defensively, STJ goalkeeper Jeff Lowman captured 16 saves in the defeat while VU's Billy Hurley (Morristown, N.J.) made five stops in the victory. Senior Brian Karalunas (Dewitt, N.Y.) tallied two takeaways and five ground balls to lead the team.

Boehner Challenges White House Re: Onslaught of Jobs-Killing Federal Rules
Republicans are fighting to stop President Obama's jobs-killing assault on private employers. National Review reports that the latest salvo in that effort is a letter by Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) to the White House "protesting billions in new federal rules small-businesses are facing." The letter reads in part:
"It has recently come to our attention that the Administration's published regulatory agenda includes a total of 191 planned rulemakings, each with an estimated annual cost to our economy of $100 million or more, and that a number of these planned rulemakings may each have an annual economic cost in excess of $1 billion. …
"On July 23, Reps. Geoff Davis (R-KY) and Trent Franks (R-AZ) sent a letter to the Office of Information & Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) requesting that the Administration provide a list of all pending rulemakings with a projected cost to our economy in excess of $1 billion. …
"I am writing [to] respectfully request that this information be provided to Congress by your Administration at the earliest opportunity."
The onslaught of jobs-killing federal regulations has created a crippling amount of uncertainty for private employers. That's one reason Boehner and Republicans are also backing a bill by Rep. Geoff Davis (R-KY) called the Regulations from the Executive In Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act, which the Cincinnati Enquirer says "would require Congressional approval for major regulatory changes, defined as those that would have an annual economic impact of $100 million or more."
But that's not all. Republicans have also pledged to help small businesses create new jobs by cutting government spending, repealing ObamaCare and starting over with common-sense reforms that lower costs, stopping the bailouts, and more. The Chicago Tribune says the Democrats' deluge of federal rules, the reckless spending and proposed tax hikes, the permanent bailouts bill, and their government takeover of health care are all major causes of our economic paralysis:
"This won't be quick. The massive bill signed into law last month sets the stage for drawn-out studies, rulemaking and comment periods. It creates three new regulatory authorities that must be integrated with the existing hodgepodge of financial regulators. Anyone who's seen how Washington deals with mammoth-size bills like this — health reform, for instance — rightly anticipates a long, messy period of sausage-making.
"For the fizzling economic recovery, the timing hardly could be worse. Coupled with doubts about federal tax policy and weakening public finances at the state and local level, the new legislation puts a drag on spending, hiring and investment. ...
"There's no question the uncertainty spawned in Washington has led employers to hunker down and hold back."
With Democrats running Washington, "It's never been costlier to hire and keep a worker employed," says Investor's Business Daily. That's something Republicans want to change.

High schools in Detroit are unveiling a new college counseling suite that will allow students to video conference with college representatives, reports the Associated Press.
The suite will be housed at the Communications and Media Arts High School, but individual suites are planned for each of the district's public high schools.
The suite includes research areas, computers, manuals and brochures intended to help students research which college or university will be the right fit for them. Students will also be able to take entrance exams and attend preparatory workshops in the suite's seminar area.
But perhaps most impressively, the suite will include video conferencing technology. Using the video conferencing, students will be able to take virtual campus tours, speak face-to-face with college representatives and attend interviews without ever leaving their hometown.
The technology could be huge for students who cannot afford to fly around the country attending interviews and conducting campus tours.
The suite is part of the makeover that the Communications and Media Arts High School is receiving as part of NBC's new television show, "School Pride," which will premier on September 24.
The Detroit public school system is Michigan's largest, and serves nearly 90,000 students at 172 schools.

Daniel Defense 5.56mm Mid-Length Cold Hammer Forged CHF AR15 Barrel 16 DD-9081
Factory headspaced Mid length AR-15 gas system and ships to your door!
Cold Hammer Forging of barrels has been known for decades to produce the most accurate, longest lasting rifle barrels obtainable. The Cold Hammer Forging of barrels is accomplished through intense hydraulic pressure applied at opposing angles by carbide steel hammers. During the hammering process, a mandrel is inserted into the bore while the carbide steel hammers shape the barrel around the mandrel creating the chamber, the lands, and the grooves. In addition to the aforementioned benefits, the Cold Hammer Forging process creates a defect free bore and the most consistent chamber possible.
All Daniel Defense barrels are made from start to finish in our state-of-the-art facility located in Black Creek, GA. In keeping with our heritage of not cutting corners, all barrels feature a forged chamber, chrome lining, and heavy phosphate exterior coating. They are all MP tested on-site and will prove themselves to be more accurate and last longer than a barrel that has cut or button rifling.
Materials & Construction:
Precision crafted from the highest quality material available today with meticulous attention to detail, our Cold Hammer Forged Barrels will prove to be the benchmark in the industry.

|tourou 灯籠
|KEY WORD : architecture / lanterns
|Also written 灯篭. A lantern. The earliest were introduced to Japan from China through Korea along with Buddhism in the 6c. Several types of lanterns were popular in Japan: 1) Stone lanterns ishidourou 石灯籠, were used first as votive lights at temples and shrines. Later they were used to light the ground of these religious precincts. Secular use began in the 16c. when stone lanterns were used by tea masters for gardens surrounding their tea huts. There are about 9 major categories of stone lanterns based on general shapes and over 75 sub-categories. All include a hollowed-out upper section which hold a light. 2) Hanging metal lanterns *tsuridourou 釣灯籠, usually of bronze or iron, were hung from the corner eaves at palatial residences, temples and shrines. 3) Standing oil lanterns andon 行灯, had iron or wood frames. There were many different shapes and sizes which burned oil in shallow saucers suspended within a frame covered with paper. This type of lantern became popular during the Edo period was used in private homes. 4) Portable lanterns bonbori 雪洞, were distinctively hexagonal, with wood or metal frames covered with paper, or glass in later years. They generally had poles attached horizontally to the top of the frame for ease of transportation. 5) Paper lanterns chouchin 提灯, were used outside the house and suspended from the eaves of buildings or carried in processions. The frame was a collapsible structure of thin bamboo strips covered with paper. A candle was placed inside. Chouchin were made in various sizes, shapes and colors and were often decorated with the names or logos of restaurants or inns.

[aieagirl] Hi Everyone! paiaboy, HI! I heard from a Dinar buddy in Australia that the banking systems are in major shakeup. We probably won't know all there is to know about it, but it's good for 'we the people' and especially for those of us invested in this. Exciting!
I always found that each group was strong in some areas but weak in others and that it was best to appreciate them for their strengths but not get all critical about areas where they were not as strong. People also come with various personalities some are analyticals and others more relational. The head and the heart connection with others both have their place in real life.
So in any marriage the husband and wife though different make a wonderful combination! Democrats NEED Republicans and vice versa. I mean how would you have an up without a down or a wife without a husband?
We all meet at the level of being humans beings and the wisest KNOW just how little we all actually know about everything there is to know. It is sometimes good to just agree to disagree until the clouds clear and we all see clearly and usually find there was both a heads and tails on the coin.
[dealdoctor] I really like each site in our Dinarland but its like when you visit various churches you must respect their traditions. Love cares about the other and what is important to them. Alabama has different laws than New York but they are both FULLY American. So I hang out here and go to the other sites
dealdoctor] but try to respect the "culture" of each community. I also respect people's right to move and start their own community. Freedom to do it one way in your own house and freedom to move out too. Isn't that what every teenager longs to do set up their own spot and be an adult. Nothing wrong with Grandma's house but it is ok for the grown grandkids to set up a more modern apartment. BOTH have their place in the family. As one great Dinarian once said NUFF SAID!!
[dealdoctor] That is my two cents both the heads and tails of it
[dealdoctor] I think forces far larger than any "camp" in Dinarland will bring us our RV and then every tribe in Dinarnation will join in one big party…I am going to be THERE!!!
[NuffSaid] I can see the point of view that SWFLguy has. He seems to be worn out from the guru information for years and has been now doing his own research. However, some dinarians on this ride need a balance of Hopium and also articles.
kyf58] tumbleweed Do you think Madame Wu needs help from another woman to release the CE? Does anyone have her email address?
[kyf58] devildogmom Hey, I have an APB out for Madame Wu's email address: Gotta find out what the problem is……lol

Metal Resistant Plants and Multiple Abiotic Stress-Tolerant Plants
Transgenic Rice Plants
Dr. Parkash has pioneered his original and novel idea to engineer transgenic rice plants for strong resistance to and decreased uptake of arsenic and heavy metals in order to reduce the movement of toxins in the food chain, as well as producing plants that can thrive in harsh conditions. Rice is an important staple food of 80% of the world's human population, and rice straw is used as livestock feed. Arsenic is a potent carcinogen and affects the health of more than 500 million people worldwide.
Stress Tolerant Transgenic plants
Climate changes have made agriculture a difficult proposition for small farmers in rain-fed and marginal lands, while available arable land is decreasing every year. Agricultural crops and vegetables that can thrive in conditions of drought, high salinity, high-temperature or heavy metal contamination will go a long way in addressing the world's food needs.
Increased Safety of Food Supplies
Plants grown in heavy metal-contaminated soil accumulate high levels of these pollutants, which then enter the food chain through ingestion of contaminated grain by humans and animals. Decreasing the uptake of toxins by rice plants and other crops will improve the safety of food for direct human consumption, as well as the safety of meat and dairy products.
Scientists at universities and major food corporations have developed transgenic plants with properties that enhance productivity, quality, or nutrition. Dr. Parkash also expects to engineer plants resistant to multiple abiotic stresses such as drought, high salinity, high temperature, and heavy metals. This is accomplished by isolating and characterizing a new family of Stress-Associated Proteins containing zinc-finger domains. By over-expressing genes from this family, transgenic plants gain strong tolerance to various environmental stress as well as metals such as arsenic, cadmium, nickel, manganese, and zinc.
- Arsenic free rice and other food crops: Safer rice and other food crops with significantly reduced levels of arsenic for human and animal consumption.
- Improved tolerance to Environmental Stress: The transgenic plants have improved tolerance to drought, heat, and high salinity.
- Strong tolerance to Heavy Metals: The resulting transgenic plants are highly resistant to arsenic, cadmium, nickel, manganese and zinc. This translates to higher yields in metal-contaminated soils when compared to regular plants.
- Enhanced biomass: An interesting property of this technique is that it results in increased plant biomass, making it suitable for use in bioenergy crops like switchgrass, canola and crambe apart from major food crops.

Government shuts down
Effective Tuesday, Oct. 1, a government shutdown was initiated due to a lack of appropriated funding for the new fiscal year.
The shutdown affected several facilities aboard Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC):
The commissary was to close Wednesday after remaining open for regular business hours Tuesday so the number of perishables in the store could be reduced.
Pass & ID offices closed. AKAL gate guards were issuing one-day passes at the gates, and visitors were told to expect possible delays.
Fleet and Family Support Center offices at NBVC Point Mugu closed. The FFSC offices at Port Hueneme maintained normal hours.
The NBVC Housing Office closed. Emergencies were being reported as normal through the Pride contract at 805-982-6789. Lincoln Military Housing offices remained open.
The NBVC small arms range closed.
The Seabee Museum closed.
The following services were operating with normal hours:
Navy Exchange.
Health and dental clinics, including the pharmacy.
Child & Youth Programs.
Unaccompanied housing.
Facilities operated by Morale, Welfare and Recreation, including the Seabee Golf Course, fitness and aquatics centers, bowling alleys, movie theaters, liberty centers, Flightline Cafe, Bard Mansion and The Hangar.
Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society.
Air operations.
Port operations.
Security patrols and the Federal Fire Department.
Navy Lodge.
FOCUS, which provides resiliency training for military families.
Congress failed to pass a Fiscal Year 2014 budget or continuing resolution by Sept. 30, which meant that effective Oct. 1, programs dependent on appropriated funding were required to close their doors until a budget can be passed.
Department of Defense (DoD) civilians, who had already been furloughed for 48 hours during the summer, were not permitted to work during the shutdown unless they were in an "excepted" position. This included fire and police personnel.
An eleventh-hour measure known as the "Pay Our Military Act" ensured that military members and excepted civilians working during the shutdown would continue to be paid on time, rather than retroactively as previously planned.
Services affected by the shutdown included anything not directly related to operational missions or life, health and safety of the Fleet, Fighter and Family.

While I remain long-term bullish on both stocks and the broader economy, data this week reminded us of an ugly risk to the recovery.
Namely, the American consumer.
U.S. retail sales rose just 0.4% in June and a meager 0.1% when you back out auto sales, both numbers significantly below forecasts. Not good.
The numbers were as baffling as they were disappointing, too. After all, consumer confidence hit a five-year high in June, according to the Conference Board. So how does this make sense?
The conflicting data recently and the disappointing spending numbers longer term hint at a serious risk for stocks in the second half of the year. And while there is certainly no reason to panic just yet, investors better start paying attention — especially if they have big exposure to discretionary sectors in their portfolio.
The dilemma facing traders is whether they want to believe in a broader economic rebound that will ultimately include consumers, or if the rally thus far is limited mainly to corporate balance sheets and real estate prices for now.
The former is a virtuous cycle, with increased spending leading to increased profits and then increased hiring and wage growth. The latter is built on a slow grind in the "new normal" where gains are made through efficiencies — consumers making do with stagnant wages, corporations cutting costs and keeping staffing lean, housing focusing on keeping inventories scarce to support prices, and so on.
To me, it seems increasingly clear that we are stuck in a slow grind of recovery. Here's why:
Consider that last week, Barclay cut its second-quarter GDP estimate to 1.0% from 1.6%. J.P.Morgan Chase also cut its second-quarter forecast to 1.0% from 2.0% previously.
The risks of saying 'no' to a promotion
So much career advice involves how to get ahead, get promoted, move up the ladder. But what if you love the job you have? A look at the challenges of finding your professional "sweet spot."
The unemployment rate is 7.6% — down a measly 20 basis points from an official reading of 7.8% for September 2012. Jobs are being created, yes, but we are basically at the replacement rate as more jobseekers enter the workforce either as recent grads or out-of-work Americans actively looking for work again.
Net worth
American families have seen their net worth return to pre-recession levels, up to $70.3 trillion in the first quarter. However, that was almost wholly thanks to increases in the stock market and real estate values — not actually having more money in the bank.

In this way, some nervousness can actually be useful in that it gives us enough energy or focus to maintain our "edge". Athletes or performers use this to their advantage to "psych themselves up" for their game or performance; without it they may lose focus or concentration. This is a positive, facilitative form of nervousness or stress called eustress.
Just as the absence of nervousness or eustress can lead to poor performance, too much nervousness can be debilitating. This negative type of stress is called anxiety of distress.
We experience stress and anxiety in a variety of ways:

Chinese Premier Says What Everyone Is Thinking: 'Break Up the Big Banks!'

With banks making record profits and the people frustrated by low interest rates on deposits and lack of lending, a nation's leader is speaking out: "Let me be frank. Our banks earn profit too easily. Why? Because a small number of large banks have a monopoly."
Those comments came not from President Obama, Tim Geithner, Ben Bernanke or any other U.S. policymaker; instead, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao made them during a broadcast on China's state-run National Radio.
Obviously there are differences between the banking systems in the U.S. and China, where the biggest banks really do have a monopoly, as prescribed by the state.

Additionally, if you choose to follow a game from a Game hub, the game's activity feed content gets incorporated into your activity feed. With this update you can now more quickly access a Game hub, from an activity feed post, in that each post has a link back to the Game hub.
With this preview release, users can now see a 2nd line of text that explains why you received a specific achievement.
"Staff Picks" are now more personalized based on your recent game activity.
With Xbox on Windows 10, you'll have more ways to connect and play, wherever you go. Your games, your friends, your achievements, and more follow you across Xbox One and Windows 10 devices.

Ozzy and Bieber, Best Buy Buyback — B+
It's funny because Bieber put on a fake beard and that that Bieber looks like a girl. Beebz called himself a girl! That's hysterical! The star power and the space suits carried what otherwise was a weak spot.
Reply All, Bridgestone — B+
We've all done that double-take after firing off a really nasty email. I'm trying to think of a good reason why this wasn't an A, and I'm afraid I don't have one.
Product Placement, Bud Light — B
We need more beer bottles in swordfights.
Great Idea, Chevy Camaro — B
It's odd that the strongest Chevy ad of the night was the one where they couldn't decide on a theme. This was basically dueling voices debating over the best way to sell American machismo. Couldn't decide on a theme, machine-gun humor
Detroit, Chrysler — B
It was 2 minutes long, and whether you love Detroit or love bashing Detroit's inability to make a car that people will actually buy, you'll remember it. It was an ode worthy of the stage. But I think it truly was a shot across the bow of the "I'll Never Buy Another American Car" set, and while I don't think it carries much sway, it's a solid effort.
You Gonna Finish Those, Doritos — B
Guy-on-guy rape will always have a place in advertising. And was that McLovin?
Feed The Fish, Doritos — B
"Grandpa?" Maybe the funniest ad of the night, with Grandpa coming back to life being the best punchline of all the ads. Dinged for some goofy editing in the middle.
What's That Mean, LookUp316 — B
The precursor for this was a dude with a rainbow wig sitting behind the goalpost. This ad is a marked improvement, but needs more Tebow or something.
Cram It In The Boot, Mini Countrymaid — B
Mini dispels notions of "no junk in the trunk" with terrific double entendre. This was a win.

Sidibe Hosting SNL On 4/24Published by Clay Cane on Wednesday, April 14, 2010 at 12:00 am.
As we reported earlier, Gabourey Sidibe is set to host Saturday Night Live. However, no date was set and being that there are only a few episodes left for the season many were wondering when she would host. Now, it has been confirmed the Oscar nominee will host on April 24th. The week before Ryan Phillippe is hosting and the week after television icon, Betty White, is hosting — Sidibe is in great company!
Clearly, Sidibe is proving Howard Stern wrong — not that she has to. However, I do hope SNL does a vicious parody on Stern.
It will be great to see Sidibe work with comedy, considering the only performance we have seen her in is such a heavy role in Precious. For those who doubt Sidibe's comedic skills, check her out in the clip below.

When treating hospitalized children with acute osteomyelitis--a bacterial bone infection--an early changeover from intravenous (IV) antibiotic delivery to oral antibiotics is just as effective as continuing the IV therapy, according to pediatric researchers.
In addition, the oral drugs are more convenient for children and families, and avoid a major drawback of IV use: increased risk of complications from using central catheters, such as infections or breaks in the catheter.
A study team from The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia analyzed hospital records for nearly 2,000 children treated at 29 U.S. pediatric hospitals between 2000 and 2005. Their report appeared in the February issue of Pediatrics. "There had been previous reports with small numbers of patients suggesting that early transition to oral antibiotics was safe and effective," said study leader Theoklis Zaoutis, M.D., M.S.C.E., an infectious diseases specialist at the Center for Pediatric Clinical Effectiveness of Children's Hospital. "This was the first large study of outcomes to directly compare the two practices."
Acute osteomyelitis annually affects at least one in 5,000 children under age 13 in the United States, and results in one percent of all pediatric hospitalizations. Typically caused by the common bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, osteomyelitis usually appears as a fever with some discomfort in a child's leg or arm resulting from the bone infection. The average age of children with the condition is five years.
The traditional treatment has been to supply antibiotics through a central venous catheter over a four- to six-week period after the child returns home from the hospital. Alternatively, children are first treated with IV antibiotics for less than a week, then sent home with oral antibiotics.
In the current study, some 5 percent of the 1,021 children receiving the prolonged IV antibiotic had to return to the hospital for further

Fed Model
The Fed Model (not endorsed by the Federal Reserve) hypothesizes that the market is in equilibrium when the earnings yield on the S&P 500 matches the yield on the 10 year Treasury note. Any dissonance in the relationship would show that equity valuations are out of whack.
Expanded Definition
The Fed model was developed by economist Ed Yardeni. In it, he compared two key metrics: the yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note and the forward operating earnings per share of the S&P 500. Note that this is not the traditional P/E ratio, which commonly uses trailing net income per share. Operating earnings are before taxes and interest charges or income and are also known as EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes). That said, some people do substitute in PE on the S&P 500 side of the comparison.
According to this model, the S&P 500 is "fairly valued" if the inverse of the earnings per share (the earnings yield) is equivalent to the rate on the 10-year note.
For example, if the 10 year Treasury note yields 4%, the S&P 500 average P/E ratio should be 25 (because the inverse of 25 is 0.04 or 4% earnings yield) to be in equilibrium. If the S&P earnings yield is higher, then the market is considered undervalued and stock prices should be bid up until the earnings yield drops to 4%.
The Fed Model has proven valuable in some cases (1990s) and completely bunk in others (2000-2002).

"A very useful app"
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
writing and editting easily
works very well
there is no complaint for it
I think it is very good. I like it in short.
"5 star This is good but where is it"
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
Very useful if you don't lose if off your computer
I paid for Micro word and it disappeared off my computer
I need my Microsoft word Where oh where did it go?
"Save your money!"
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
OK, I admit it's good...
It is not free.
I had it for some weeks, looks good, but why pay for it and make Bill Gates even richer than he is, when you can download OPEN OFFICE for free? It's a great program, has absolutely everything that Microsoft has. Save your money for your next summer vacation and get Open Office!

"It's OK. I don't have any complain for this products."
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
Now it works better for me.
I hope there's no serious bug.
"Love the ribbon UI, but super slow to load."
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
Ribbon UI makes MS Word 2010 a joy to use and navigate
Makes getting your work typed up quick and easy
Slow loading of program
Huge size when the entire office suite is installed
Does not fit in the Windows XP theme (more suited for Vista/7)
Following in the tradition of Microsoft Office in years past, Word is an easy program to learn and use, and the Ribbon UI makes it much easier. Things are faster to find and more tools are at your fingertips. The program is slow to load though, especially on Windows XP, and the theme of it does not work well at all in XP, looks very clunky. The size of the office suite is enormous! The price is even more outrageous. If you want a full office suite, try out something free like OpenOffice.org.
"Won't upgrade until the ribbon is history!"
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
Like another reviewer has said, Word is a good, reliable product—ruined by the ribbon.
Narcissistically controlling & obtuse. It takes all the joy out of writing.
Presently I'm using Word 2007, but Word—any version—is a classic example of dictatorial software. We are told (at a premium price) what we are SUPPOSED to like; and what we, apparently, are supposed to like is: tons of hardly-ever relevant bells and whistles from which we may choose, but a piece of kit nonetheless eternally burdened by its fundamentals, of which the Ribbon is but one. I'd have to say it's by far the biggest one. Two-thirds of it, I never use. Ever!
Word is ... no surprise ... a word processor. One of its best features is one of its simplest: the ability to zoom in to see multiple pages on a single screen. Wonderful, especially if you've got a large monitor. This makes—in capital letters: VERTICAL—space in particular, extremely valuable.
How can I put this? I want my inch back! At the very least, I would like the option to dock the ribbon—as I already do with the taskbar—on the SIDE of my screen ( On my 24" monitor I can afford to loose some horizontal space.)
I DON't like:
Having always to look at a glaring-white page. Particularly on a large screen, a sea of white is very hard on the eyes. Why is there no option for creme—or for that matter, other colors?)
I don't like the highlighters. There are fifteen to choose from and only three of those are useable. (The rest are far too dark!) Given we have a near-infinite choice of font colors, why not some decent variety of highlighters? And why not, in particular) the ability to make them much less dense? (I repeat: all but three are too dark to use.) I want highlighters, not "paint" ~ers.
Those miserably-tiny scroll arrows! If you want to scroll up, just a titch, you must hunt out that tiny black arrow at the top-right (only) of the screen; and if you want to go down (just a titch) you have to do the same at the bottom right (only) of the screen. On today's larger monitors that's a marathon of mouse-work! Why not have both, "up" and "down" arrows together—and in all four corners of the screen to choose from? That would reduce the relevant mouse-work by 400%. (Think about that.)
Headers and footers: UGH! A nightmare to be sure. Trying, for instance, to manipulate the page breaks so a header or footer doesn't appear on a chapter's first page is a torture. Initially, it took two other people—who considered themselves experts at Word (indeed, I was paying one of them for the advice)—an entire morning to figure it out. A year later, it still has the power to flummox me.
Endnote numbering: do the world a favor and shoot whoever designed that system. (Seriously; you know what I mean.) Perverted, to be sure.
I could go on—and on, and on....
Not bells—basics!
You know what I think Microsoft needs to do with Word?
Scrap it and buy-out Lotus Word Pro. Now those are people who know what word-processing means.
(Why, you ask, don't I just use Lotus? In a word, compatibility.)

"There are other good products that cost $0"
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
Is capable of producing high quality documents
With the world of documents going on line, there are other products that do on line better for the same $$ or $0
Save your money unless you still use paper for things, in which case you probably won't be reading this review.
"Hate the ribbon"
Version: Microsoft Word 2013
All the good is undermined by the ribbon.
A good reliable product ruined by the introduction of the ribbon. There's not even an option to turn it off and revert to the classic interface. Some people love it and encourage refuseniks like me to try it and learn to love it. Why should I? I'll just buy something else that suits me. So goodbye MS Office and hello Open Office or Ashampoo Office 2010 both of which will do fine.
MS need to remember why so many people hate Apple: because they decide what is right for their customers and won't give them a choice. Apparently the ribbon is going to appear in Win 8 explorer too. That means I'll probably be sticking with Win7 for as long as I stuck with xp (8 years), unless MS realise that the customer is always right and give us a choice.

Yesterday I sat and watched liveblog coverage of the long-awaited announcement from Apple. To no one's great surprise, they unveiled their newest device, the iPad. While everyone knew this tablet device was coming, everyone had wondered exactly what it would be. Apple has high standards when it comes to devices like this one and I, for one, was prepared to be amazed. Alas, I was disappointed. iDisappointed, even. I'm ready to declare that the iPad is the greatest disappointment in all of human history (at least since The Phantom Menace).

What's Up Doc? It's a Bugs Bunny Lunch!
We made this Bugs Bunny sandwich using 3 pieces of bread, peanut butter, grape jelly, strawberry jelly, 1 dark grape, 1 strawberry, and a small piece of white cheese.
We cut 2 piece of bread out in the shape of Bugs Bunny face. We spread peanut butter in the middle and put them together. We cut the other piece of bread to make the ears. Spread the top part of the face and the ears with just a small amount of grape jelly just to give it a light purple color. Spread on the strawberry jelly to make the mouth. Cut the scrap pieces of bread to make the whiskers, cheeks, and eyes. Cut the strawberry in 4 slices to put on for the ears. Cut the tip off of the strawberry to make the nose and tongue. We used dark grapes to make the pupils on the eyes, but you could use raisins. We cut a piece of white cheese to make the teeth. You could also use a marshmallow or use the bread scraps.
We gave Bugs a carrot and the kids just LOVED him!

GRAND RAPIDS TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WZZM) -- A quick-thinking Forest Hills bus driver was able to get several students off her bus before it went up in flames.
The driver was picking up students near the Forest hills aquatic center when she noticed smoke coming from the engine.
"Not being able to evaluate what the problem was, she erred on the side of safety, which is part of their training," explained Forest Hills Public Schools transportation supervisor Darryl Hofstra. "She got them off safely and away from the bus."
The driver called 911 and asked the garage to send a new bus so she could complete her route. Moments later, the engine compartment went up in flames. It quickly burned through the fiberglass hood.
There's no word yet, on what sparked the fire. "We will be going over the bus with a fire investigator to determine the cause, where it started," said Hofstra.
The district will also be in contact with the manufacturer to see about recalls or previous fires with the Thomas 2005 Saf T Liner C2 school bus. There are 10 others just like it in the district's fleet of 90 buses. "We are taking all the other buses like this, out of service until we determine what's been going on with this bus," said Hofstra.
The district has some slightly older models from 2002-2003 that are typically used for school trips and sporting events. Those will be put into regular service. Parents and students shouldn't notice a change.

Rays beat Rangers in 163rd game
Arlington, Texas • David Price, Evan Longoria and the Tampa Bay Rays are going to playoffs again, getting there with a victory in their final regular-season game for the second time in three years.
They needed an extra game this time.
Price threw his fourth complete game of the season, Longoria hit a two-run homer and the Rays beat the Texas Rangers 5-2 in the AL wild-card tiebreaker Monday night, the 163rd game for both teams.
As soon as Price got the final out, he locked eyes with Longoria and they went straight to each other to start the celebration.
"He just told me that he had a dream about it," Longoria said.
Luckily for manager Joe Maddon and the Rays, they weren't done in by another blown call in Texas though this one did cost them at least one run.
The Rays face another must-win situation Wednesday night at Cleveland in the AL wild-card game the winner faces Boston in the division series. In the playoffs for the fourth time in six years, Tampa Bay won four of six from the Indians during the regular season.
Price (10-8), the reigning AL Cy Young winner, had a 10.26 ERA in four previous starts at Rangers Ballpark. He was superb in this one, striking out four and walking one. He picked off two runners while allowing seven hits and throwing 81 of 118 pitches for strikes.
"When you can get outs without throwing pitches that's always huge," Price said. "If I don't get those two outs on the pickoff moves, I have to get the next guys out. It forces me to throw at least 10 more pitches."
The 28-year-old lefty reached 10 wins for the fifth straight season. He missed more than six weeks because of a triceps strain but is 9-4 in 13 starts since returning July 2 from his first career stint on the disabled list.
Longoria had three hits, continuing his stellar play in the last game of regular seasons. He is hitting .579 (11 for 19) in those finales with seven homers and 10 RBIs, according to STATS.
Texas had won seven in a row, needing every one of those wins just to force the majors' first wild-card tiebreaker since 2007.
Even with the return of All-Star slugger Nelson Cruz from his 50-game drug suspension, the Rangers missed a chance to get to the playoffs for the fourth year in a row.
"I'm disappointed. We didn't get it done," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "I've got no excuse for that."
Cruz, who had 27 homers and 76 RBIs in 108 games before his suspension, was 0 for 4 with a strikeout while hitting sixth as the designated hitter. His groundout to shortstop ended the game.
The Rays had runners at first and second with two outs in the seventh when Delmon Young, who put the Rays ahead to stay with a sacrifice fly in the first, hit a soft flyball.
Center fielder Leonys Martin made a running, diving play to catch the ball. Replays showed clearly that the ball bounced into Martin's glove.
But third base umpire Ron Kulpa, looking at the play from the side, ruled it an inning-ending catch.

1 Whole Beef Tenderloin , Mortons Nature Seasoning, Olive oil
Place Whole Beef Tenderloin out on counter, bring to room temperature. Season with Mortons Nature Seasoning or your favorite seasoning. Build fire using Ozark Oak Lump Charcoal, just on one side. When fire is ready cover meat with Olive oil and place on fire side with fire raised up to the cooking surface. Sear the meat on both sides for 5 minutes and then move to the other side of the cooker and lower the fire down to bake. Cook another 20 minutes and you will provide all cuts of meat from well done to medium rare.
Vegetables covered with olive oil and cooked on the grill is a nice completment. I can only submit one recipe, yet use my Hasty-Bake all the time.
