The Naval Air Development Center was the site of the worlds largest human centrifuge. Scientific experiments conducted there pioneered future air and space travel.
One of the usual questions that you ask a friend when they come to visit is, "What do you want to do?" Of course this is always an open question and can generate a whole array of responses. Well, that's exactly what I asked my best friend John when he came back East from Las Vegas to visit this past week.
John is a retired military man who still loves everything there is that's military in nature. He spent time in the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Coast Guard. I met him in 1984 and he retired in 1986. Over the years we have remained best of friends.
When John came to visit, one of the things he wanted to do was visit what remains of an old U.S. Naval Air Station located in Warminster, PA. He was stationed there in the 1960's and wondered if anything was left of the base. At one time, the area was called Johnsville, PA and was home to the Johnsville Naval Air Station. This facility originally was the site of the Brewster Aircraft Factory. Brewster designed and manufactured a number of military aircraft during World War II. These included such aircraft as the F2A-3 Buffalo, and the SB2A Buccaneer. Brewster fell on hard times and was eventually taken over by the U.S. Government. The government closed Brewster and the site became a naval base in 1944.
At the end of WW2, the base became the headquarters of the Naval Air Warfare Center. In 1952, the Navy had built the world's largest human centrifuge at this site. Eventually the Navy changed the name of the base to the U.S. Navy Air Development Center, or NADC.
During its operation at the NADC, the centrifuge was in a round building known as the Aviation Medical Acceleration Laboratory. John told me that this building was highly secure and admittance was given only to those who worked there and those Navy personnel who volunteered to take rides in the centrifuge. The scientists who worked in this facility did experiments and tests which helped to pioneer high speed air and space travel as we know it today. At the time, the centrifuge was the most powerful in existence. It was 17 meters in radius, had a rate change of 10 g/s and could reach 40 g/s.
Most of us don't know, and I sure didn't, that this facility was used to train the heroes who were the pioneers of space travel. These brave pioneers of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo projects included such famous men as Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, John Glenn, James Lovell Jr., and Michael Collins. They all trained in the centrifuge at the NADC. The centrifuge and the work conducted there served a dual purpose. First to study the medical effects of high acceleration, and second to select individuals best able to cope with such acceleration. The scientists needed to know how many G forces the first astronauts and jet pilots could take before they passed out. All of this was new to science and these critical tests helped shape the future of air and space travel.
When we visited what was left of the NADC, we found that the centrifuge is still in place. The building is now owned by a private company who is renovating it into an office building. They are actually looking for a buyer for the centrifuge and other equipment which was left behind. The construction manager gave us a tour of the facility and allowed us to take some photos inside the centrifuge. We also got to see the control room which at one time was classified as Top Secret, along with other rooms which held various equipment used during the experiments conducted there. One piece of equipment that really drew my interest was an aircraft pilot's seat that had what I will call a crash test dummy in it. You could tell it was original from the days when the NADC and its operations were in full swing.
Along with the centrifuge, the original factory buildings of Brewster Aircraft Factory are now office buildings or house other companies. There were three runways which are all gone now. The barracks which John and thousands of other veterans lived in are also gone. During the re-development stage, an attempt was made to save the aircraft hangers. That attempt eventually failed and they too were torn down.
There is little left of the original NADC. I was glad that my friend John took me there and told me a little about the history that was made there. I considered it a privilege to be able to see first hand such an important part of our countries history. If you are interested in such military history, I suggest you pay a visit to Warminster, PA before the rest of the NADC disappears.

NADC was initially - and for some time - a culture shock for me. It was a very great departure from the sunshine, beaches, and the excitement of Southern California and my friends. It was also a long way from that special, great camaraderie of being within a tight knit fighter squadron, especially one under combat conditions. -954-691-1102

|Keeping Your Cool
Rabbi Avrohom Mushell, Star-K Kashrus Administrator
Few of us can remember life in the kitchen without the help of a refrigerator. Probably the most used appliance in the home, the electric refrigerator was mass produced as a home appliance in the early 1920's. Although many improvements and modifications have taken place over the years, the basic principles employed in the home refrigerator remain the same.
How Refrigeration Works
The natural laws of physics dictate that as a liquid evaporates into a gas, it absorbs heat from the surrounding areas. In turn, these surrounding areas become cold. (If you touch the cylinder supplying gas to a barbecue grill, you will notice the cylinder getting cold and icy because the liquid in the cylinder is rapidly changing to a gas as it leaves the cylinder to provide fuel for the flame.) Although we may view our refrigerator as a machine that makes things become cold, in physical terms, the unit in reality is absorbing heat from inside the refrigerator cabinet and transferring that heat to the surroundings outside, resulting in a cold cabinet.
To accomplish this a refrigerator uses a liquid, referred to as a refrigerant, that evaporates into a gas at a very low temperature. To start the process, a thermostat in the refrigerator cabinet will sense the temperature in the cabinet to be above the desired setting. It will cause a connection to be made that starts an electric motor. This motor, known as the compressor, pumps the refrigerant gas, compressing it into sealed coils called a condenser. This puts the gas under high pressure, making it warm. In many refrigerators the condenser is the black coiled pipes behind the refrigeration unit. While going through the condenser coils, the high pressured gas is being cooled as the heat dissipates into the atmosphere, causing it to condense into a liquid. Many newer models will have the condenser under the refrigerator cabinet with a fan blowing through the coils to cool them. The liquid then passes through a narrow valve into a low pressure area. Upon entering this low pressure area, the liquid refrigerant expands and evaporates, changing back into a gas. Hence this area is called the evaporator. As stated earlier, upon evaporation the gas will absorb heat making the area cold. (In an old manual defrost refrigerator, the evaporator would be the coils in or around the freezer section.) From here the gas is pulled back to the compressor to complete the refrigeration cycle.
Frost and Frost-Free Fridges
When moisture in the air comes in contact with cold, (namely, the frozen evaporator coils) it condenses and forms frost or ice. In order to function efficiently, the freezer eventually must be turned off and the ice removed. Most new models have a frost-free design. This does not mean that there is no frost build-up. Rather the evaporator coils are located in a central location. A timer is set to turn off the compressor and turn on a heating element that is next to the frozen evaporator coils. The built-up frost then melts and flows down a pipe to a pan at the bottom of the refrigerator; from here the water evaporates into the atmosphere. Because the evaporator coils are contained in a central location, a fan is used to blow off the evaporator coils and spread the cold air through the freezer and refrigerator sections.
Shabbos and Yom Tov Concerns
Now that we have some basic knowledge of what takes place in the regular refrigeration cycle, let's examine our refrigerator and analyze the effect the workings may have on Shabbos or Yom Tov. We know that the Torah prohibits doing an act which is classified as a melacha on Shabbos or Yom Tov. Among the prohibited acts is havarah, meaning to cause burning. Generally, the Torah prohibits actions when done with intent. When there is no intent to cause the resulting action (eino mechaven), there is no prohibition in Torah law. (However, it may be Rabbinically prohibited.) This is true when the resulting action is not a definite reaction to one's action. When the melacha comes as a direct reaction, even though it may have been unintentional, it is viewed as intentional.
Lights Out
Most refrigerators have a light that goes on when the door is opened. Turning on a light is classified as a havarah. Even though one does not intend to turn on the light when opening the door,1 this is prohibited2 since there is a direct reaction which will definitely take place. The easiest way to avoid this problem is to unscrew the lightbulb before Shabbos or Yom Tov. If one accidentally opens the refrigerator door (without unscrewing the lightbulb) and turns on the light, they may not close the door as this would be turning off the light.3
The Fan
As noted earlier, a fan circulates cold air through the refrigerator and freezers in frost free refrigerators. In some models this fan shuts off when the door is opened. Since opening and closing the door directly affects the fan function, it is prohibited on Shabbos and Yom Tov. One should check their appliance to be sure that it does not have this feature by listening to see if the fan runs with an open door. If it does not, try pressing down the door plunger (switch) and listening to see if the fan goes on. Note: Some models have two door plungers, one for the light and another for the fan motor.4
Opening the Door: Ovens vs. Fridge
As discussed earlier, the compressor motor begins the refrigeration cycle when the thermostat senses a change in cabinet temperature. When the refrigerator door opens, warm air enters the cabinet, causing the refrigeration cycle to begin earlier than it would have, had the door remained closed. There is a similar situation regarding opening an oven door. With regard to opening the oven door, the conclusion is that on Shabbos one may not open and close an oven door at random, because the cool air entering the oven chamber will cause the thermostat to have the oven burn sooner and longer to compensate for the lost heat. However we concluded that one may open the oven door one time in order to remove the food as the burning to follow is unintended, unwanted,5 and serves no purpose.6
The question is: May one open a refrigerator knowing that this will cause the compressor to work to compensate for the warm air that enters the cabinet? Over the last seventy years, many halachic authorities have addressed this question. To understand some of the reasonings involved in the different answers given, we must point out that in the case of an oven, the electricity is being used to heat the element (or in the case of a gas oven, to ignite a flame). Under those conditions, the use of electricity is considered havarah (burning of fire). The fact that the oven will burn for longer to make up for the lost heat may be categorized as mosif havarah (additional burning of fire).
In the case of a refrigerator, the electricity is not being used to burn as light or generate heat directly. The electricity is causing the compressor motor to initiate the refrigeration cycle. As it rotates, this motor may generate sparks which are not classified as havarah. Sparks are classified as nitzotzos, which are prohibited by Rabbinic law as a melacha she'aina tzricha legufah.
Sidestepping the Issue
For information on refrigeration products under Star-K certification,
1. Eino machaven.
2. As a psik reshah.
3. Kibuy.
4. Cold air contracts (meaning the molecules of gasses come closer together). When the door of a freezer is opened it lets in warmer air. When closed again, the air contracts as it chills. This creates a vacuum and may cause a hissing sound that can be mistaken for the sound of a motor or fan. This is a physical effect and not a concern for Shabbos or Yom Tov.
5. Eino mechaven on a psik reisha d'lo nichah lei.
6. Melacha she'aina tzricha legufah.
7. Sefer Hayovel Ezras Torah Horav Henken zt"l Minchas Yitzchok.
8. R' S.Z.Auerbach zt"l, Yabiah Omer.
9. Refrigerators found in recreational vehicles or trailers.
10. One of the luxuries of having a freezer is the ability to manufacture ice. With respect to the general question of making ice on Shabbos and Yom Tov, we should note that some Rabbinic authorities prohibit ice made on Shabbos or Yom Tov because of nolad (a new entity, i.e. ice, was created that was not there before the holiday). According to this opinion one may not use ice made on Shabbos or Yom Tov. Most Rabbinic scholars are of the opinion that the prohibition of nolad does not apply in the making of ice. However there is concern for meichin. This means that one may not prepare for the following day on Shabbos or Yom Tov. Therefore one should not make ice on Shabbos or Yom Tov if the intent is not to use the ice on Shabbos or that day of Yom Tov. This means that one cannot place an ice tray in the freezer on Shabbos or Yom Tov afternoon if the ice will not be used before the day is out.
11. As noted previously, where the electricity is used to generate heat, it is considered havarah.

ICGC releases new genomic data on cancer ahead of schedule
ICGC genomic data release exceeds expected levels in its decade-long programme to generate high-quality sequence for 25,000 tumours
Cancer genome data is available on more than 2,800 tumours at www.icgc.org. The sequence information on 25,000 tumours is being collected around the world in 40 projects focused on the bladder, blood, bone, brain, breast, cervix, colon, head and neck, kidney, liver, lung, oral cavity, ovary, pancreas, prostate, rectum, skin, soft tissues, stomach, and uterus.
The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) today announced its sixth major data release at a meeting in Kyoto, Japan. The ICGC also announced that it is ahead of schedule in its decade-long programme to generate high-quality genomic data on more than 25,000 tumours for up to 50 types of cancer that are of clinical and societal importance across the globe.
"These new and updated datasets will help researchers better understand what drives cancer, which in turn should help develop new insights into how to tackle this terrible disease. Ultimately, this will lead to new, more personalized treatments that will improve patient care," said Dr Tom Hudson, President and Scientific Director of the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research and one of the founders of the ICGC. "As a result, these datasets are an important contribution not just to the ICGC but to the cancer research community worldwide."
The ICGC, comprised of research organizations around the world, is committed to making data rapidly and freely available. Cancer genome data is available on more than 2,800 tumours through an Internet portal at www.icgc.org.
The data include new submissions to the ICGC from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) in the United States, which has contributed information on about 10 types of cancer affecting the blood, brain, colon, kidney, lung, ovaries, rectum, and uterus, including data from a study of 500 ovarian cancer patients published in the journal Nature on June 30.
The National Cancer Centre/RIKEN in Japan has updated its whole genome data on 27 liver cancers, which includes the first whole genome sequence data of HCV-positive HCC (hepatitis C virus-positive hepatocelluar carcinoma) published in Nature Genetics on April 17. Researchers from Spain have provided complete genome sequences for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). The Spanish team described recurrent mutations in CLL in a publication in Nature on June 5. The Ontario Institute for Cancer Research in Canada has updated its data on pancreatic cancer. The ICGC data portal also includes information on breast, lung, and skin cancer provided by researchers from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in the United Kingdom.
More than 140 ICGC researchers are meeting at the first ICGC Workshop to be held in Asia. From July 10 to 12, the researchers meeting in Kyoto will discuss what has been discovered so far and to develop strategies for the future direction of the Consortium. Dr Harold Varmus, Nobel laureate, is presenting a plenary lecture at this Workshop.
"These new and updated datasets will help researchers better understand what drives cancer, which in turn should help develop new insights into how to tackle this terrible disease"
Dr Tom Hudson, President and Scientific Director of the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research
"The relationship between the United States' TCGA initiative and the ICGC project is synergistic and will make major progress toward understanding the genetic underpinnings of more than 30 types of human cancer," said Harold Varmus, MD, Director of the US National Cancer Institute. "An international commitment, both financially and intellectually, to an understanding of how human cancers occur across different populations will mean important progress for global health."
Although some projects targeting specific forms of cancer are already at the data generation stage, many of the 40 active projects are in their initial stages and are focused on obtaining patient consent and collecting 500 or more tumours of a specific form of cancer. The Consortium has proven to be very effective in generating guidelines and sharing knowledge to accelerate both existing and new projects in meeting their objectives.
The ICGC, which was formally launched in November 2008, continues to grow and attract new member projects. There currently are 40 projects under way targeting the bladder, blood, bone, brain, breast, cervix, colon, head and neck, kidney, liver, lung, oral cavity, ovary, pancreas, prostate, rectum, skin, soft tissues, stomach, and uterus.

But for you who honor me, goodness will shine on you like the sun, with healing in its rays. You will jump around, like well-fed calves.{Mal 4:2}
My lack of energy has taken it's toll not just on me, but my whole family. I could not have survived this far without the support of my best friend and husband. Even though he runs 2 businesses, over the years he has picked up the slack where my energy wouldn't allow me to go on. My husband cooks the main meal of a night time as by the afternoon, I had used up all my energy for the day, and could hardly bring myself off the couch. This has often left me guilt-ridden. My amazing husband however, has rarely complained about it, and just accepted that's what he needs to do. He has also helped put away hundreds of baskets of laundry. I am blessed with an amazingly supportive man by my side on this journey.
Last month I felt God whisper to me that my "Spring was coming." At that stage, I had an appointment to see a new doctor. The new doctor ordered a series of blood tests and on my next appointment, discussed the results saying that she suspected that I may have a disorder that she hasn't completed her training in yet, and was referring me to another GP who was also a naturopath, who was trained in diagnosing and treating the disorder. The doctor suspected I had Pyrrole Disorder which has only recently been discovered and there are only 100 GPs in Australia trained in the disorder and how to treat it. I don't think it was a coincidence that the first available appointment with this doctor was the first day of Spring!
The results for the disorder takes weeks, so after seeing the new doctor, she was satisfied that I displayed enough symptoms to go with her intuition and start me on the supplements for Pyrrole Disorder. The first week on the new supplements were hard as I experienced nausea and migraines. This week though, I am feeling much better. Yesterday, was the first time in a decade that I felt like I had normal energy levels, and didn't need ridiculous amounts of tea to keep me going! So I suspect the supplements are working.
The other thing that the doctor wanted me to try, was to eliminate Salicylates from my diet for 7 days, and then reintroduce to see how I react. I have constant chapped lips and may have a salicylates sensitivity. She also suggested I do the trial with the boys as some children's (and adult's) moods, and therefore their behaviour can be effected by food intolerances.
After doing a bit of googling on salicylates, I came across the Food Intolerance Website ad have decided to do the RPAH elimination diet to once and for all find out what my boys and I may or may not be sensitive to. The school holidays coming up will be the perfect time to do this.
I remember my eldest son drawing a picture with a liquid-chalk marker under the scripture in Malachi 4:2 that I had written on my glass sliding doors, 3 years ago, when he was 6. It was a picture of me playing 'Tiggy' with his brothers and himself. Something I haven't been able to do ever with my boys. He explained me that it was a picture of me when I was healed and I had energy.
Boys, mummy IS being healed. His goodness is shining on me like the sun. And there is healing in His rays. Soon you will see me jump around like a well-fed calf. And you better watch out! Because I was pretty good at "Tiggy" at school!
I will be able to take back some of those housework type things that you have so graciously done for me over the years, my amazing husband. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for loving me so well through sickness and health.
My Spring is coming, OUR spring is coming....soon, very soon.

Cannot Postpone recurring task one day at a time, must be to next occurrence.
I know this has been discussed, but I wanted to see if maybe I was missing something. Whether or not I use "every" or "after" for a recurring task, I can only choose to "do it today" (once it is overdue) or "postpone" to next scheduled occurrence, as if it had been done today.
Problem is, I like to clear my list for today before bed at night. Even if clearing only means pushing the things I'm not getting done to tomorrow. I can't clear out the things I haven't done because it won't let me. I don't want to wait until the next occurrence, it still needs to be done, but I just didn't have the time today.
Is there any way to make the postponing more flexible in this way?
All responses
Hi Laura,
You are correct, at the moment there is no "Do It Tomorrow" type of option.
You could change the date of the task to the next day, but I do understand this is not ideal for someone to do all the time.
You can also just leave them as is, which will make them overdue. They will show up on your Today view as overdue, and you can check them off when completed.
A feature like this does seem to be wanted quite a bit, and we hopefully will implement it eventually. You can vote on it in our Votebox: http://todoist.com/Vote/showProposal/826/

I am so grateful for the mass warmth and gratitude I have received from hundreds of you who stand behind me, as I stand against a tyrannical town government that plays with people's lives like plastic pawns on a Wal-Mart chess board. I have come to realize that mine is not the voice that needs to be heard. Rather, it is yours, the voice of the good, honest, hard working residents of Lakeview who have been manipulated, neglected, and mistreated that must be heard. From what I have been hearing, many of you have given up. You feel like there is no recourse or hope.
There is hope, but we must stand together. We must question motive, productivity, budgets, and unnecessary or corrupted positions that take power away from the people of Lakeview and put it in the hands of politicians. This must be done before we as a town are nothing more than a twisted reflection of the corruption found in our federal government.
This week, I ask this question: how long? How long will the town administration drive by the fire station and ignore the "Fire Fighters Wanted" sign, disregarding the fact that decorated captains and lieutenants with 20 plus years of experience are leaving because of the mismanagement, mistreatment, and abuse handed down by those in management? How long before they deal with the fact that the very safety of our town is in jeopardy due to the (alleged) neglect and gross backhanded activity of the fire chief and those who allow him to run unchecked with our dollars and our lives? How long before our leaders are held accountable?
How long?
Rev. Kirk R Quinlivan II

Trailer | Apr 12, 2013
Dishonored fans are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the new DLC for Bethesda's sneak-fest, which will grant players the chance to play as one of the main antagonists of the first game, the assassin, Daud.
Taking place after the assassination of the Empress, which Daud saw to in the opening of Corvo's adventure, The Knife of Dunwall depicts Daud's following actions, and his search for redemption for such a horrific act.
The DLC will be a good deal different to the main game, as Daud is the polar opposite to Corvo. Whereas Corvo was always created with stealth and restraint in mind (unless you chose to be a psychopath), Daud is a more brutal character. Still stealthy, he prefers to use his arsenal of deadly weapons and gadgets to leave his foes pushing up the daises, and isn't as concerned with human life as the noble Corvo. After all, Corvo was previously a bodyguard, tasked with protecting life. Daud, on the other hand, has always been an assassin, and only now seeks his redemption.
Daud's tale brings with it new traps and items, along with more offensive-focused abilities. He can also call in his band of gas mask-packing assassins the Whalers, for aid, and his version of Blink can be used to set up deadly insta-kill takedowns.
The DLC is set to arrive on April 16 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, and will cost 800 MS points or $9.99.

- Quick-click locking mechanism makes for easy set up and a secure base
- Pot comes with removable wrap-around, heat-resistant cover and sure-grip handle
- Lid includes special opening for drinking hot brews
- Burner and 100g gas cartridge can be securely stowed in pot for transportation
Share your thoughts
What do you think of the
Primus EtaSolo Stove With .9L Pot - Heat Wrap Handle
? Share a...
Works great.
I got the camo one and it also said that it came with a coffee/tea press. It did not.
I contacted Backcountry and explained that it does not come with one. after a few days they sent out a press but it does not fit the pot. I called again and they said that they would contact Primus and send out another. Still no response.
I believe that this stove never did come with one. Typo.
Great stove however.
Does anybody know if the Jetboil coffee/tea press will fit this pot?

Hey, just wanted to let you know that the link you have for Crown Brushes is incorrect. The correct one is http://www.crownbrush.com/home.aspx?pg=home. I dont know if you have tried them either, but the Kirkland brand brushes from Costco come in a set of 7-10 for like $20 and are just as nice as my MAC brushes. I also adore my Sonia Kashuk brushes from Target and my Essence of Beauty brushes from CVS. Just making suggestions that you might want to let your other "budget" conscious readers know about :)
Makeup Brushes 101
This video focuses mainly on my favorite MAC brushes, but please don't feel like those are the only ones I use or that are worth using! I admit that I absolutely LOVE my MAC Brushes, and believe they are totally worth the money. Most of my MAC brushes are well over 4-5 years old and still in wonderful condition. I feel like its more worth it to spend more on something that will last a long time then buy something cheap that you'll have to replace rather quickly.
If MAC brushes are out of your price range, I would check out Crown Brushes. Crown Brushes are sold by loads of online makeup companies, and theyre really nice quality and not expensive.

I adoooorrreee this video. Yeah, I may be a latecomer to the whole art of makeup, but I am no stranger to brushes. I'm a an amateur painter. So I'm good with mixing colors, making gradients and using paintbrushes. Glad to finally see what all the different makeup brushes do- largely the same kinds of things regular paint brushes do. lol But softer, I suppose. I'd be pretty scared if my face felt like canvas. :)
um…i tried to use your link to the crown brushes site and you actually hyperlinked it wrong…suposed to be crownbrush.com singular…not plural…don't know if you knew already…
Kabuki brush?
I just wanted to share mhy recent experience with Crown Brushes. I bought a set from Haute Look, and received them today. OMG they smell like formaldehyde! Absolutely horrid. I offered to send them back for a refund, but the sales gal said no, just throw them away. OY!!

Wesley Johnson
Hello, do you know me? I'm a library IT Assistant. My name is Wesley Johnson. Perhaps you remember seeing me as "MAN IN CROWD AT BARISTA COMPETITION" in William Wallace's Monkey Mocha Fantastique or "MAN ON BENCH WHO GETS ATTACKED BY ZOMBIES" in the PJ Starks' classic, WBKR Zombie Run 2013 Commercial. No? You've at least seen me crawling under desks with Ethernet cables or toting around broken computers at DCPL, right? You'll typically find me doing that and other assorted technology-related tasks there M-F.
Outside of appearing for approximately 10 seconds in various indie films & commercials, I spend my free time engaging in the following activities: non-fiction writing, reading (no, I didn't HAVE to say that), watching plays/films/concerts, eating entirely too much Mashed Potato & Bacon pizza and attempting to be a comedian. I also like long walks on the beach, provided I have access to a powerful sunscreen. I am very pale.
Daniale Thomas
Hey, I'm Daniale, and you can hear me walking through the stacks from across the library with my jangling lanyard and clumsy steps. I work on the fun floor, the one with the children's books and fiction. I love rereading my old favorites like The Princess Bride and The Iron Fey and trying out some of the many new young adult fiction novels we own. When I am not at my fantastic job, I am in class learning how to be an engineer or studying (a.k.a. watching Netflix). I love helping patrons find new reads, so if you need anything, feel free to ask!

Aided by strong tea party support, Texas Gov. Rick Perry has surged in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, pushing former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney into second place and significantly diminishing the once-rising star of Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.), according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
Perry, who announced his candidacy three weeks ago, is now perceived by Republicans as the best candidate to beat President Obama, a distinction that Romney previously held.

After sitting out three consecutive games with a foot injury, Rajon Rondo was back in uniform this week and was his usual dazzling self leading the Celtics to two consecutive victories.
Following a 14-assist performance in a victory over the Toronto Raptors last Friday, Rajon Rondo and the Celtics landed in Cleveland last night to take on the Cavaliers.
The game plan was clear for the Celtics -- let Rondo create and share the ball, setting up his teammates for easy baskets. However, Cavs head coach Byron Scott had other plans. The Cleveland defense attempted to contain Rondo's penetration and force him in to taking a high volume of shots.
Rondo responded accordingly. He connected on 7 of his first 12 shots to the tune of 13 first half points and an eventual game-high 23 points.
He simply took what the defense gave him and showed there is more to his offensive game than dropping dimes: "I could care less about scoring the ball. But obviously teams are going to make me shoot it, try to make me score the ball. So I'm going to shoot the ball when I feel I have to," Rondo said.
Rondo's teammates were also impressed with his scoring abilities: "He showed that he can beat you,'' said Celtics Forward Paul Pierce. "They came in and said we're going to try to make Rondo beat us. They showed in the way they defended him. They went under all the pick-and-rolls, played him loose, let him get to the rim, get out to the break. He was phenomenal. He took up the scoring load for us and it showed that if teams are going to settle and try to let Rondo beat them, he's capable of doing it.''
For those coaches around the league who see Rondo as a one dimensional pass-first point guard, let last night's scoring performance serve as notice. Rondo can do it all.

I guess this time round, heaven was pretty nice to me. I had been waiting around the area for 30 minutes, trying to frame in people as my human subjects but to no avail.
As the sun was reaching the horizon, I saw this couple sitting further up from where I was standing. Bang! I quickly rushed forward, set up everything and went for this shot.
Amazing thing was, seconds after I was done with the last exposure, the couple got up and left. Made me wondered was it all pre-planned or I was just plain lucky.

Nursing Homes Support Scheme
Wednesday, 20 October 2010
Seanad Eireann Debate
Senator Maria Corrigan: I thank the Cathaoirleach for the opportunity to raise this very important issue. I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy John Moloney. The introduction of the fair deal nursing home repayment scheme has been a very welcome development. It has brought considerable peace of mind to individuals and families who are trying to plan for the future and were concerned as to how they might meet the ever-increasing costs of nursing home provision. I welcome it.
The issue I am raising appears to be somewhat of an anomaly. It relates to older people who are in need of nursing home care and who are suffering from an age-related disorder such as Alzheimer's or senile dementia and who at the time they require care or after they have been admitted to a nursing home, their disorder results in a deterioration in their condition and it is felt they need a higher degree of support in order to keep them safe. Concerns then exist as to whether the level of support they are receiving is adequate. It is then recommended that they are moved to a higher support unit.
In such instances what is occurring is that, even where such individuals have been eligible and approved for the fair deal scheme, if they are moved to a higher support unit, the nature of which, as the Minister of State may be aware, will often come under the auspices of the Mental Health Act, it may not be deemed to be an approved centre for the fair deal scheme. In those instances the financial support from the fair deal scheme ceases to exist. Families suddenly find themselves facing bills of up to €1,200 or €1,300 per week for the level of support required. This can occur in situations where the higher support unit may be in the same building and may even be on the same campus.
I am aware of an example in my constituency, the Bloomfield Nursing Care Centre, an excellent facility which has received tremendous support and funding from the Government. There are a number of nursing home residents and part of the facility is approved under the fair deal scheme. Yet, the moment a resident is required to move to a different corridor he or she is no longer eligible for the scheme and the financial support of the fair deal does not follow him or her even though he or she remains in the same building. I spoke to a constituent today who has already paid in excess of €300,000 in fees and the family savings have run out. The family is now concerned about how it can continue to meet the cost of care of their mother.
[160]I wish to ask the Minister of State whether we can put a proposal on the table which would see us extend the fair deal to approved centres which are specifically for older people who require high support. That could take place in a nursing home or an adjacent facility. Section 3(1) of the Nursing Home Support Scheme Act 2009 contemplates that a fair deal could be extended, not alone to approved nursing homes. It states:
Centres, such as the one to which I referred, which provide the high level of support required by people who are in the later stages of Alzheimer's would meet that designation and therefore could be designated as approved centres under the fair deal scheme, and thus alleviate a considerable source of anxiety for families. Is the Minister of State aware that under the fair deal scheme the person contributes to the scheme, whether with the value of his or her assets or property? It is a way to alleviate the concerns people have while they are alive as to how their care will be financed.
Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children (Deputy John Moloney): I thank Senator Corrigan for raising this issue which relates to the nursing homes support scheme, the fair deal scheme.
The nursing homes support scheme is a system of financial support for individuals in public, voluntary and approved private nursing homes. The scheme is available to anyone assessed as needing long-term nursing home care, including dementia-specific nursing home care. However, it does not cover long-term residential care in other settings, such as mental health and disability facilities. As the Senator is aware, the scheme commenced on 27 October 2009. To date, over 15,800 applications have been received and over 11,600 of these have been processed to completion. The HSE is continuing to process applications on a daily basis.
In order to qualify for the scheme, all private nursing homes must negotiate and agree a price for the cost of care with the National Treatment Purchase Fund. This is a necessary feature of the scheme due to the commitment by the State to meet the full balance of the cost of care over and above a person's contribution. The price agreed with the National Treatment Purchase Fund covers all residents entering the nursing home regardless of the level of their care needs.
For individuals applying to the scheme, the first stage in the application process is a care needs assessment. This assessment is carried out by appropriate healthcare professionals appointed by the HSE. The results of the assessment are submitted to the HSE in the form of a report called a common summary assessment report. Applicants to the scheme are given a [161]copy of this report. A person must be assessed as needing long-term nursing home care to qualify for financial support under the scheme. In addition to the care needs assessment, the nursing home will carry out its own assessment to determine whether it can meet an individual's particular needs.
Once an individual's application has been approved and their chosen nursing home has confirmed their admission, the HSE immediately arranges for payment of financial support on the applicant's behalf to their chosen nursing home. Financial support will continue to be paid for the duration of the individual's time in care. In the event that a person's needs change after they enter a nursing home, the HSE can carry out a review of the care needs assessment.
The HSE can undertake this review on its own initiative or at the request of the individual. Where the review indicates that a person's needs have changed and it is decided their needs are best met by transfer to another nursing home or to a different unit within the same nursing home, his or her financial support can be transferred with him or her. This may result in a higher level of support being paid to the individual. This feature of the scheme ensures flexibility and allows a person to continue to receive financial support in the event that a nursing home can no longer cater for his or her care needs.
Senator Maria Corrigan: I thank Minister of State for his response and have two comments. The first relates to the first section of his response in which he indicated the fair deal will not extend to mental health or long-term residential facilities. I am not asking for an extension to the scheme. Rather, I refer to free nursing home type settings or settings that are specifically for the support of older people. In cases where people require high level support and where there is an involuntary restriction on a person's individual freedom who then comes within the remit of the Mental Health Act, I ask that some flexibility be shown in that regard in accordance with the section of the Act to which I referred. I ask that such centres, where they are adjacent to nursing homes or part of nursing homes but because of the nature of the high support they provide fall under the provisions of the Mental Health Act, have some flexibility and could also be designated as an approved centre under the fair deal scheme.
I ask the Minister for clarification on the final part of his answer. I am a little confused. I am very happy to see it and if I sent the answer to many centres they would be very happy to see it because it will allow them to believe they will receive money. I know from experience with a constituent that this is not happening. I know of one constituent who was in a nursing home and had financial support, but because the person's needs changed, the person had to change where they were resident and had to pay for that.
I ask the Minister to clarify whether this is a new development which will be introduced in the future. My understanding is that the fair deal scheme cannot extend to parts of a nursing home which are not approved centres, even where they are in the same building or on the same campus. If they fall under the Mental Health Act and are in the same centre, and it is purely for the purposes of providing a higher level of support, the financial support will not follow.
Deputy John Moloney: The Senator's understanding is correct. The response is also correct, however, as support can be transferred provided the person is going from one nursing home to another. I take what the Senator has said as something that the Department and the Minister and Ministers of State at the Department must recognise as a huge anomaly. I recall visiting some months ago with Senator Corrigan the facility to which she referred. If I remember correctly, the situation there has been that beds are available and it is a very upmarket facility. I remember spending some time going through it all and realising that while we have people on waiting lists for such accommodation, especially in the mental health area, the sad reality is [162]that under the legislation people cannot apply for the fair deal in this context. To be fair to the Minister, Deputy Harney, she is aware of this and at a recent meeting in the Department we grappled with how to resolve it, not only in the specific case brought to our attention by Senator Corrigan but everywhere, particularly where we consider taking people out of institutionalised settings. Often centres are on the doorstep of institutionalised settings.
In a nutshell, while the response is correct, the money does not follow a person transferring from a nursing home to an unapproved centre. The challenge facing us is to rectify this. It is very important and is an issue which the Minister, Deputy Harney, has placed on the agenda in the Department.
Senator Maria Corrigan: I thank the Minister of State.
The Seanad adjourned at 7.50 p.m. until 10.30 a.m. on Thursday, 21 October 2010.

I'm an adoptee who's adopting, but I'm also a Submariner's wife. We're working on adopting, but it's going SO SLOW because of his work schedule. For example, his current schedule means his day starts at 3am. He gets home from work around 7pm, and is in bed by 9pm, 6 days a week. So having time to take classes and make progress is quite frankly impossible right now. Not to mention, towing the line of being full-time employed, part time author in addition, and my To-do list seems impossibly long. I ACHE for help (at least today) and I even found myself thinking, "Maybe we should just give up and never have kids." It was just frustration talking, and I know there will be better days. But with the hubby unable to contribute to the household outside of financial support, it makes me wonder how we can possibly be good parents. I mean, we're bone tired as it stands. How could we possibly add kids to the mix?!

Then I remember - everything happens for a purpose.

My bio mom gave me up for a purpose. We haven't gotten pregnant for a reason.

We're open to ethnicity and age.

DETROIT (DETROIT FREE PRESS) - Coco Crisp had three hits and drove in two as the Detroit Tigers dropped the first of a four-game set to the Oakland Athletics, 8-6, tonight at Comerica Park.
Miguel Cabrera hit his 43rd home run of the season and Omar Infante and Victor Martinez, who had four hits, also homered. Torii Hunter had a pair of singles.
Tigers pitching was not sharp in the first game back at home after the three-game sweep at the Mets. Detroit gave up 12 hits and eighth walks.
Detroit trailed, 4-2, in the fifth when Austin Jackson hit a one-out single. After Hunter's failed bunt attempt resulted in a foul out behind the plate, Cabrera stepped to the plate. After A's starter A.J. Griffin threw Strike 1, he was visited at the mound by catcher Stephen Vogt. Griffin then threw three straight balls. But Cabrera clobbered the 3-1 pitch to right to raise his RBI total to 130 on the season.
But reliever Jose Alvarez (1-4) could not keep the game tied in the sixth. Pinch hitter Nate Freiman led off with single, followed by an Alberto Callaspo single. Then, Daric Barton singled up the middle and Freiman beat the throw from Jackson to make it 5-4. After a bunt put runners at the corners, Crisp singled to left, scoring Callaspo and ending Alvarez's night.
Al Alburquerque came in and got Jed Lowrie to ground into an inning-ending double play.
Alburquerque stayed in for the seventh, where the A's scored again. With one out, Brandon Moss walked. Then with two away, Freiman walked. Then Callaspo laced a single to right to give Oakland a three-run cushion.
The Tigers mounted a threat in the seventh against reliever Dan Otero when Jackson walked and Hunter singled, sending Miguel Cabrera to the mound with two outs. But the A's elected to intentionally walk Cabrera, loading the bases for Prince Fielder. Lefty Sean Doolittle came in and got Fielder to fly out to deep left-center.
Martinez opened the eighth with a solo home run off Doolittle. Then with two outs against reliever Ryan Cook, Brayan Pena and Jose Iglesias singled, bringing the tying run to the plate in the form of Jackson, who walked. But Cook struck out Hunter swinging to end the threat.
In the ninth, Fielder hit a one-out single off A's closer Grant Balfour. Martinez then blooped one into left-center that Crisp couldn't field for another single. Once again, the Tigers sent the tying run to the plate. During Tuiasosopo's at bat, Balfour uncorked a wild pitch, allowing the runners to move up. Then, Tuiasosopo grounded out to third, allowing Fielder to score. Infante grounded out to short to end the game.
Anibal Sanchez gave up four earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out six in five innings, throwing 112 pitches.
The A's put a pair on the board in the opening inning. Crisp began the game with a double to deep right. With one out, Josh Donaldson singled home the game's first run. Moss then singled to right, putting runners at the corners. Then, Yoenis Cespedes hit into a fielder's choice, making it 2-0.
The Tigers tied the game in the second. Andy Dirks hit a one-out single to right and Infante hit an 0-2 pitch over the wall in left for his seventh home run of the season.
But the A's quickly regained the lead when Crisp homered to right to open the third. Oakland added a run in the fouth when, with one out, Seth Smith and Callaspo drew back-to-back walks. Barton then hit an RBI single to left.
Griffin (11-9) went five innings, giving up four earned runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out four.
Jeremy Bonderman gave up a run in the eighth. The ninth-place hitter, Vogt, singled to open the frame. Then with one out, Jed Lowrie doubled over Jackson's head in deep center to score Vogt. The Tigers reliever gave up two walks in the ninth.
