I finally made it back to a slimming world class, a year after I last went. I had been on track last year to reach target then moved house and moved away from my group and didn't find the time to return. As I was training for a triathlon type event it didn't seem to matter too much, but with the event over my weight started to creep up.
I went to group tonight and was shocked to realise i was over a stone heavier than when i started it last year. It has made me more determined to get back on track and get the weight off and keep it off.
I will post my first day tomorrow :-)

Puerto Rico's first 100-megawatt wind farm goes online
- Details
- Category: Wind
06 Nov 2012
- Published on Tuesday, 06 November 2012 08:10
- Hits (1562)
Puerto Rico now has its first wind turbine power plant, a 95-megawatt site owned and run by Pattern Energy.
The currently fully operational Finca de Viento Santa Isabel represents an additional 15 percent of renewable energy into the territory's power grid.
Electricity coming from Finca de Viento will go to the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority under a 20-year power purchase and operating agreement.
The wind farm is the first wind energy project developed by San Francisco-based Pattern Energy in the Caribbean and one of the largest wind power projects in the region.
It reportedly brought $250 million in private investments to Puerto Rico, providing 350 jobs.
Finca de Viento Santa Isabel was originally planned as a 75-MW facility. At its current production rate, it can power the equivalent of 30,000 homes according to Pattern Energy.
The current administration believes that diversifying Puerto Rico's energy mix will create jobs and bring in investments while slashing the island's dependence on oil.
The government has set a goal of generating 12 percent of their energy from renewables by 2015, 15 percent by 2020 and 20 percent by 2035.
"We recently inaugurated the AES Ilumina solar project in Guayama. Other projects are soon coming to completion, such as Gestamp's wind farm in Punta Lima, Naguabo. Other projects around the island currently under construction will soon be online…," said power authority executive director Josue Colon. – EcoSeed Staff

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - West Virginia officials selected a coordinator to focus on eliminating health disparities for the state's vulnerable populations.
The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources Bureau for Public Health said it named Taya Williams as coordinator of the Office of Minority Health.
The office will work with West Virginia's most vulnerable populations to address disease prevention, health promotion, healthier lifestyle choices and the use of health care services.
Vulnerable populations are defined by race or ethnicity, socio-economic status, geography, age, disability status, and risk status related to sex and gender.
Commissioner for Public Health and State Health Officer Dr. Letitia Tierney says the future health of West Virginians will be determined greatly by how officials can successfully eliminate health disparities.

Really enjoyed the meal, food perfect service good and atmosphere excellent. suits all age groups. would highly recommend.
First class food and service.
Held a birthday party for 15 friends at Mimi and the food and service were exceptional.
I would like to say that i have been to Mimi's on several occasions most notably in 2008 and the food was just top notch and I thoroughly enjoyed it, the food was lovely and the very pleasant waitresses, could thoroughly recommend it.
I had only been to this restaurant once when I decided to hold my birthday meal there. Spectacular food and excellent value for money, particularly the early bird menu - under £11 for three courses! Highly recommended for anyone
Great food, excellent menu and the staff were great!! Reasonable price tto - would recommend and we will be back!!
I have eaten at Mimi's on several occassions. I have always found the food and service excellent.
My husband and I recently enjoyed an excellent three course Anniversary meal at Mimis the service is very good and the surroundings are beautiful would recommend to anyone and will definitely be returning there for a meal with our children !
one think i have to say..best food,best service,best prices
I found this restaurant out of sheer chance one day walking past with my parents and went in for lunch. It was gorgeous and cracking value for money (main meal and a glass of house wine for little under a fiver).
Anway I went back a few weeks later with a girlfriend I had just met and she absolutely stunned. Between 5-7pm they have an early bird offer where you can either have just a main course for £4.99, a starter and a main course for £7.99 or a starter, a main course and a dessert for £9.99 (all this for under a tenner without drinks of course) . All the food is gorgeous be it a pizza, pasta dish or a chicken dish and in over a year going in the place my parents and me and my girlfriend have not had one complaint yet regarding the meals, service or price of the place.
All the staff are wonderful and very freindly and will do anything for anyone. If you have any problems with anything in this restaurant you obviously have a VERY high standard to keep to.
Yes the 10% charge is a bugger but unfortunately you get that with quite a few restaurants these days
This is one of my favourite restaurants ever ... I have never had a bad meal or service here and I have been many times. The staff are really friendly and always happy to help. Booking is advisable as this venue is always busy which surely proves how great the food is.
Having tried out Mimi just by chance I have returned on several occasions since and have always had a delicious meal. Very impressive.
We have just been to mimi's for my birthday, we all had the early diner for£ 9.95 per person, we had an excellent three course meal. The service, was excellent,lovely surroundings. Would recommend to anybody who would like an excellent meal for a great price.
We called in at Mimi's on spec, having seen the board outside and the clean, modern look of the restaurant. As we walked through the door we were greeted and made to feel welcome by a friendly maitre d. The menu offered sufficient choice for me as a vegetarian. The wine and food were very good, atmosohere relaxed and convivial. I can thoroughly recommend Mimi's and will certainly visit again next time we are in Sale.
This restaurant has always been one of my favourites in sale but please be warned of the 10% tip that they add at the bottom of the bill as it does say optional but recently i have noticed that certain members of staff seem to think this is an obligatory payment of an extra 10% onto your bill-even for parties of less than 6 people! please look carefully when you receive your bill- there are 2 totals, one for the total food and drinks bill, and the final total which has had the "optional" 10% service charge onto it.
This is my second visit to Mimi's and once again, it was fantastic. We had the Early Bird menu, 3 courses for £9.95 and just the main course was worth that amount. The portion sizes are great, the staff are very friendly and welcoming and we weren't rushed out, even though we were there for the early bird. Would definately recommend it. In fact, plan to go there tonight for my 2nd wedding anniversary!!!!
Absolutely fantastic food in a lively and very friendly atmosphere. The best night out I've ever had in Sale. Highly recommended.
We have eaten at Mimi's twice now, once with the in-laws who are very picky. They loved it. We had a great time, warm & friendly service, great food, nice atmosphere, varied menu.
We're going back again soon!
Good food and good value. Had been put off Mimi's by friends who had a terrible experience in the first week it opened, but decided to give it a try last Saturday night. We hadn't booked but got a great table in the window. That is not to say it was quiet as there was a great buzz to the place and very attentive service. Food was very good too - had the combo starter for 2 which allowed us to check out 4 starters each for £5.50 per head, good value - for main I chose the fillet steak in brandy and pepper sauce, a personal favourite, but also a good "benchmark" dish. It didn't disappoint. Cooked properly medium-rare and they were happy to substitute fat chips for the usual mixed veg and potato for me. My other half had the gorgonzola fillet and thought that was great too. Vanilla pana cotta with berries, finished us off.......very nicely. Will definitely be coming back and bringing friends with us!
Having eaten in nearly every Italian restaurant in Manchester, Altrincham & Didsbury I have to Say that Mimi in Sale is the most fabulous of them all. The menu has lots of variety and the portions are huge not to mention very reasonably priced and the staff are great.
My husband and I love it so much we try and go every month, in fact I have a ladies night booked there in two weeks!!
I had the lunch time special which was only £6.50 for any pizza or pasta and a drink and it was amazing. I had calzone and it was massive!!! It was so fresh i couldn't believe it. The service was 10 out of 10. I have been telling everyone about this place it was just lovely.
Have eaten in Mimi many times and plan to continue doing so. The food is fabulous, the service is excellent and the portions are huge!!! What more could you want?? Highly recommended. Oh, and it's great value for money too!
had a fantastic meal .26 May SAturday evening . service great, Food excellent . Will definately return , and recommend this fine restaurant
Been here twice now and both times it has been outstanding. The only slight negative is that the starters could do with being reduced as they are massive!
We went to here last sat and the food really was amazing and really good value for money. The only down side I would say is that I did feel like we were being rushed a little and didnt have much time between the courses or being asked if we would like the bill.
However all in all the food is spectacular and I would give it another go perhaps at a less busier time.
10 out of 10 for service and food.best ribs ever.going again on mothers day.brill
I recently had my engagement party here, we were a group of 19 and I was a little apprehensive at how they would cope. I needn't have been, the service was spot on and the food was ALL fantastic. Not one person had a negative comment about their dish and we ordered an array of different dishes between us. We did have to pre-order our meals due to the size of the party but that just made the whole night more relaxing knowing we just had to drink the champagne and wait for our food!! One minor criticism that they didn't have enough champagne glasses for us all so we had to use wine glasses, but that certainly won't stop me going back. Thanks Mimi's.
Went here last night to introduce my daughter to my girlfriend. The food was exceptional, staff and service brilliant. lovely decor. We will definitely come back soon as there is so much on the menue. Ps the girls got on well.
We returned to Mimi on Sat 30th Sept with a group of 12 wasn't sure how they'd cope as it is a smaller venue. The food was as good as last time but the service was a little slow, the restaurant was full and the atmosphere was great. Think they could just do with a couple more staff on a busy sat night. Will continue to support Mimi.
Usually go to Oca but arranged a group at Mimi's for a change. Food was excellent, starters were too big however mains and pudding were great. Service was excellent as was the house red, very reasonable. Did not think I would say this but Oca is not as good.
Went for lunch with work as I spotted in on your site and noticed the good reviews. They were spot on, food was very good, great value lunch deal. Ahead of Oca now??! just maybe.
We went to Mimi last week over the bank holiday and I can honestly say they do the do the best Carbonara. Staff were very friendly and attentive. My only criticism is they could do with a few more choices for vegetarian starters. Menu as a whole was good and the atmosphere/decor is just right.
We went to Mimi for our 10th Wedding Anniversary. The staff were very accommodating (having looked after a bouquet of flowers for the best part of the afternoon and then presenting them to me after our drinks,courtesy of my husband). The food was wonderful and plenty of it. The relaxed atmosphere made for a very pleasant and memorable evening. Would suggest that you book in advance, as it got very busy. Will be returning in a few weeks with the girls for a gossipy eveing with good food.
I have been in Mimis a couple of times and the food is fine. However, on one occasion we were served flat (not a bubble in site) coke, I asked for a replacement and was told when they brought it, that it was a new bottle of coke. It was totally flat as well. I asked for lemondade instead and was told that would be the same - the explanation was that it had ice in it and that is what happens.
I too don't like the 10% service charge then being asked again when paying by card if I want to add a tip.
Went to Mimi's for our anniversary meal and found the levels of food, service and atmosphere to be excellent. The staff were very obliging and couldn't do enough for us. The only downside was the usual 10% service charge added to the bill, then space to fill in your tip on the credit card. Will definitely return.
We went to Mimi a couple of weeks ago and found it excellent. Very friendly staff and the food
was extremely good. Great people watching spot if you get a table in the window!
We have just been for lunch at this place & it was really lovely. The restaurant has a really nice feel about it - stylishly decorated & good music. Service was excellent - as was the food. I had chicken risotto which was full of flavour with sunblushed tomatoes & my friend who had the seafood risotto commented that it was the best she's ever had. All in all very impressed - worth a visit.

See "Lifestyles of the Rich and Heinous." (Edwards Westpark, Irvine)
This film was not screened in time for our critics. (Countywide)
If you can't get enough of the Mutually Supportive Sisterhood narrative, there's every chance you'll go for this perfectly pleasant, perfectly undistinguished adaptation of a market-driven novel about six Sacramento lovelies trying to mend their stalled or broken lives while massaging each other's feet. Like most MSS stories these drearily formulaic days, this one comes accessorized with life lessons from Jane Austen, whose novels offer pregnant parallels to the dilemmas of these neurotic but nice exurban book-clubbers, plus one pretty male nerd in the inoffensive form of Hugh Dancy. You can't outright hate a movie that stars Maria Bello (even as the capable singleton who can't commit) or the excellent Emily Blunt (even as the nervous Nellie unable to see the good stuff right under her upturned nose) or Kathy Baker, predictably cast as the much-married port in a storm. But it's hard to tell who's panting more eagerly in pursuit of all possible chick demographics: Karen Joy Fowler, who wrote the giddily commercial novel; Robin Swicord, who wrote and directed capably enough; or the product placements that pop their merry little heads into practically every frame of this stolidly suburban romance. As for me, I eagerly await the mad bitches of Nicole Holofcener's next movie. (Ella Taylor) (Edwards University, Irvine)

Defense Department Comptroller Robert Hale said the Pentagon has to make financial management "a commander's issue," instead of solely "a comptroller's issue." (Molly A. Burgess / U.S. Navy)
Experts said the Defense Department will be ready for a full financial audit by a 2017 deadline, but only if it can get the sustained leadership the initiative needs.
"I'm confident that they are on that path," Rep. Michael Conaway, R-Texas, told fellow lawmakers at a Tuesday hearing of the House Armed Services Committee. Conaway headed an ad hoc panel charged last year by committee leaders with conducting a comprehensive review of the Pentagon's financial management system. "Leadership's job is to keep them on that path," he added.
In a report released at the hearing, the panel called the Pentagon's auditability strategy "reasonable," but voiced concern that some DoD agencies may not be effectively implementing it.
The Navy, for example, claimed audit readiness for civilian pay almost two years ago, but will need to do so again because of "additional corrective actions" required after its first try, the report said.
The review also singled out more than a half-dozen management and organizational challenges that need addressing. They include:
Sustained leadership to ensure the department meets the goal.
Training a competent financial management workforce.
Fully identifying improper payments. While the Defense Department reported $1 billion in improper payments in fiscal 2010, both the Government Accountability Office and DoD inspector general believe that figure may be low.
Implementation of enterprise resource planning systems to integrate accounting, logistics and other business functions.
Defense Department Comptroller Robert Hale generally did not contest the panel's findings. He added that the Pentagon has to make financial management "a commander's issue," instead of solely "a comptroller's issue."
"I think that's starting to happen, but we haven't gotten there yet," Hale said.
Congress could help by returning to "a more orderly budget process," he added. Repeated threats of a government shutdown in the last year required "enormous planning efforts," he said, while the Defense Department is now facing the threat of across-the-board budget cuts starting next year. The accompanying uncertainty, he continued, "has drained valuable time and leadership attention from many initiatives."
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has set a goal to complete a budget audit one of four steps to completing the full financial audit by 2014.

Aspire goal-planning app released as public beta
updated 08:45 pm EST, Tue January 27, 2009
Aspire goal planning app
Unifiq has announced a public beta of Aspire, its new life-goal planning application for Mac. The program is designed to help create, prioritize, review, and track long-term goals and plans, while enabling users to combine any created ideas into a goal map. Instead of working as a daily planner, the focus is placed on weighing major decisions and organizing items that may take a long time to accomplish. Aspire avoids using specific time-frame scheduling, but rather prioritizes the items with phrases such as now, soon or later, in an attempt to avoid nitpicking about the fine details.
The goal map consists of three different blocks that include goals, obstacles and solutions. The goals are placed in red boxes, while obstacles are organized into black and gold boxes and the solutions are located in skin-colored boxes with green interiors.
Aspire requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later and is currently priced at $20 during a pre-release sale, while the standard price will be set at $40. A free fully-functional 30 day demo is also available for download.

Electronic Health Record (EHR) technology is defined by the New Jersey Medicaid EHR Incentive Program as one or more of the following:
A complete EHR that, if used appropriately, will permit a physician to comply with all of the objectives and measures of all stages of meaningful use, which is defined by the federal government.
Definitions and additional details for Stage 1 meaningful use objectives and measures can be found here.
Definitions and additional details for Stage 2 meaningful use objectives and measures can be found here.
An EHR module is defined as any EHR technology that, if used appropriately, would permit a physician to comply with at least one of the objectives and measures of meaningful use. An e-prescribing application is one example of an EHR module that could meet several of the meaningful use objectives. E-prescribing integrated with other modules (e.g., specific registries and a health data exchange module to provide patients with clinical summaries) might meet all of the criteria of meaningful use.
Note: open-source, home-grown or self-developed software programs are allowable EHR technologies provided they are certified.
Per federal law and regulations, the New Jersey Medicaid EHR Incentive Program requires that only certified complete EHRs and EHR modules may be used to qualify a physician as a meaningful user. The certification process itself was established in August 2010 and is managed by the ONC. Under the rules of this process, ONC accredits "testing and certifying bodies" that certify EHR technology. For a listing of ONC accredited organizations and certified EHR technology, please visit http://onc-chpl.force.com/ehrcert.
Certain EHR products may not have the "right stuff" for enabling a physician to meet meaningful use criteria, even if they were certified by the Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT) prior to July 2010.
There is no "grandfathering in" of either testing and certification bodies such as CCHIT nor of products certified by them. CMS and ONC maintain a public web site for all products and services that have been successfully tested and certified. The Certified HIT Product List (CHPL) provides the authoritative, comprehensive listing of Complete EHRs and EHR Modules that have been tested and certified.

A couple of cautions.
First, the Massive Developing Chart (and App) is a little like wikipedia - things can be added that may not be right.
Use the times as a starting point.
Second, Bluefire is fairly esoteric, so it may require unusual times or temperatures.
Third, fixing times will vary with different types of fixer and different types of film - so it would help us if we knew what type of fixer you are using. The best way to determine the right time is to use a clip clearing test. Fix for as long as it takes a clip of film to clear, then replace the fixer with a second bath, and fix for the same amount of time again.
Fourth, I always use clips at both the top and bottom of the drying film. Several hours in a slightly humid environment works best. If, however, Bluefire is on an inherently curly base material, this will only reduce the curl, not eliminate it.

A more open government could mean 'gold' for Ontario
- Details
- Created on Wednesday, 15 January 2014 13:44
- Hits: 606
By NICK FEARNS
Staff Writer
The push for more open government and information sharing is something that Ontario is a "little bit behind on."
John Milloy, minister of government services, admitted Ontario has work to do. That information can be used to help researchers, but can also be used by entrepreneurs to create jobs.
"We're looking at putting, based on what's happening in other jurisdictions, hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands, of data sets will be available for free," said Milloy. "There's gold there. Talk to anyone in the high tech world, so much of it is about information."
The minister toured the college where he learned about some of the research being done here with information from the province.
Mike Duncan, industrial research chair at Niagara College, showed the minister how they had created algorithms that could allow farmers to see a 20 per cent increase in crop yield as well as 20 per cent less loss.
Duncan showed the possibility of tracking which parts of a farmer's fields are not producing so those areas can be avoided.
Milloy also attended a round table discussion featuring many officials from Niagara College and Brock University as well as other community figures.
The discussion was aimed at discovering what types of data sets are most in demand so they can be released first.
Kithio Mwaba, director of government relations and policy for the Greater Niagara Chamber of Commerce, was excited for what open government can mean for the businesses of Niagara saying, "Open data can catapult the private sector."
Mwaba pointed out the example of Kitchener. Kitchener established an more open policy regarding their data which was used by small and medium sized firms to develop apps that track garbage pick-up and snow removal.
Open government has been one of the initiatives pushed by Premier Kathleen Wynne. In a letter to Ontarians Wynne wrote, "We must also unlock public data so that you can help us solve problems and find new ways of doing things."
"I believe that government data belongs to the people of Ontario and so we will make government data open by default, limiting access only to safeguard privacy, security and confidentiality."
Jim Bradley, member of provincial parliament for the riding of St. Catharines and minister of the environment, attended the roundtable discussion.
He said the move to open government "will lead to better decision making and policy," adding more available information means more pressure on the government to act.

We may be seeing far less of Frodo Baggins in the upcoming Hobbit flicks, but that doesn't mean Elijah Wood didn't enjoy bringing the ring-bearing hobbit back to the big screen (Wood has already reportedly wrapped up shooting on the flick).
The 30-year-old thesp, who is in the midst of promoting romantic dramedy Celeste and Jesse Forever at the Sundance Film Festival this year, took a little time to dish on the upcoming prequel to the Lord of the Rings while he was at it.
So, did Wood finally give us the scoop we've been waiting for?
MORE: Will The Hobbit Be Even Bigger Than The Lord of the Rings? Here's What Elijah Wood Says...
Not exactly.
But, Wood did reveal what it was like to step back into the fantastical world.
"The opportunity to go back to New Zealand to play that character again…it felt like a family reunion. It felt like stepping back into time," Wood said. "I turned 19 in Hobbiton and I'm 30 now!"
Meanwhile, the film's director, Peter Jackson, who is at the festival promoting his doc, West of Memphis, let us in on exactly how much more production is left on the film for the rest of the cast and crew.
"It's going great," Jackson said. "We're probably two-thirds of the way through shooting and I go back to New Zealand in about two weeks and we start another hundred days of shooting."
The prequel to The Lord of the Rings, which is split into two films, is slated to hit theaters Dec. 14.

Perhaps you're aware that we have another Election Day coming up soon. We not only have the opportunity to elect a president, U.S. senator, and Congressman but to solidity one of the most fundamental principles upon which our country was founded: the protection of property rights. If you believe in this principle then it's extremely important for everyone, no matter your party affiliation, to vote "yes" for Question 1 (Virginia Eminent Domain Amendment) on the ballot.
This amendment will prohibit eminent domain from being used by government to take property from individuals and then give it to private developers for the purposes of increasing tax revenues.
I'm sure you've all heard of the Kelo vs. City of New London case, in 2005, where the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of allowing New London to take the homes of individual citizens and transfer their land to (a developer working with) the $150 billion drug company Pfizer. This was all done in the name of economic development and tax revenue for the city.
This demonstrates where the court ruled against property rights and allowed the sheriff to evict people from their homes to be bulldozed for "public purpose." A major problem arose, however, the developer was never able to secure financing, and the land was left empty.
Closer to home, two years ago, the Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority began proceedings to take businessman Bob Wilson's Central Radio's building and transfer the property to a developer. Central Radio Co. has been in Norfolk for nearly 80 years and employs 100 people. When it was looked in to why the developer was to be given the land it was made known that they had no real specific plans for the land.
Bob Wilson was rightfully upset by this abuse of eminent domain and is currently protesting the government's actions in court.
By voting in favor of the Virginia Eminent Domain Amendment (Question 1) this November, we all have an opportunity to help (people like) Mr. Wilson and to reclaim our own rights. Let's get this done!

WW POINTS VALUE: 4pts
Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Quick & Easy Cookbook. Who doesn't love Caesar salad? Once in a while, you have this craving for a Caesar salad but you think, 'I have to go out to a fancy restaurant and order it.' Not anymore you don't. You can make this classic dish in your kitchen in 15 minutes. You won't miss the eggs in this dish either because it's a very filling dish that will ease your hunger and satisfy your appetite. You can top it with grilled chicken or shrip to make it a lunch or dinner or you can add your own homemmade multigrain croutons to the salad. I highly recommend using mutligrain bread toasted abd brushed with olive oil and sliced into 1/2-inch cubes and tossed into the salad. Salt is optional because the anchovies already add some saltiness to the dish.

|Initial (latent) polycythemia vera with thrombocytosis mimicking essential thrombocythemia.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 15983426 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Patients have previously been described who showed clinical signs and symptoms suggesting essential thrombocythemia (ET), but later transformed to polycythemia vera (PV). From a series of 344 patients with a sustained borderline to moderate erythrocytosis, 44 failed to conform initially with the diagnostic criteria of the WHO for PV, because of their low hemoglobin level. Twenty-three patients of this group presented with a thrombocytosis exceeding 600 x 10(9)/l and therefore suggested ET, but later developed full-blown PV. For comparison we investigated also 164 patients with manifest PV, 90 patients with ET and 22 patients with reactive thrombocytosis (Th). The histopathology of initial PV was evaluated by stepwise discriminant analysis of 17 standardized features. Quantity and left shifting of erythro- and granulopoiesis, giant forms and naked nuclei of megakaryocytes, cellularity and reticulin fibers proved to exert a significant relevance concerning differentiation from true ET and Th. In conclusion, initial PV with thrombocytosis is characterized by a special pattern of BM histopathology. Therefore, so-called masked PV in patients with ET or simultaneous PVR-1 gene expression and endogeneous erythroid colony growth in ET patients are probably in keeping with initial PV mimicking ET.

Goodbye, Regis; Mashable Parts Ways With ParrNovember 22, 2011
Regis Philbin says goodbye without any tears: "Some people ask, why has the show stayed on so long? And I think it's answered to me every time people tell me why they watch it.

EUGENE — How frustrated were the Beavers down the stretch of Saturday's 49-21 loss to Oregon in the 115th Civil War game?
Plenty. Defensive coordinator Mark Banker was dropping F-bombs at the officials as the Ducks closed in on their final score. Defensive lineman Andrew Seumalo expressed a similar sentiment as he came off the field.
Flanker James Rodgers was in sweat clothes stretching out his left leg on an equipment box, unable to go because of an ankle injury.
Athletic director Bob De Carolis looked glum. Benny the Beaver was standing with his hands on his hips: His body language was not positive as a 3-9 season wound down.
Defensive Scott Crichton, who played a monster game with 12 tackles and a forced fumble (his sixth of the season, breaking his own school record), stopped briefly to do a interview. He was bathed in sweat and his face said "we lost, approach with care."
In the locker room, there was pain and frustration, yes, but a lot of pride as well.
"It sucks to end this way," running back Jordan Jenkins said.
"It was a tough game," tight end Joe Halahuni said. "We didn't execute offensively and defensively when we wanted to. It wasn't our day."
"It's football, so it's a long game," defensive back Lance Mitchell said. "I don't think we did enough as a defense."
"I'm really proud of our guys," quarterback Sean Mannion said. "Oregon is definitely a good team. We just need to keep working hard."
"I like this team," coach Mike Riley said. "It's a good group with a good attitude. I'm trying to look at this thing realistically and not look at it through rose-colored glasses. I don't think we are that far off from being a good team."
No Rodgers: Rodgers, the Beavers' senior flanker, spent his final game as a Beaver on the sidelines in sweats. OSU's all-time leader in receptions warmed up with the team, but Riley decided to hold him out.
"I told him I did not think he looked good and that he couldn't play," Riley said. "It's obviously tough, but it wouldn't have been a good decision to put him at risk."
Wheaton stymied: Without Rodgers in the lineup the Ducks were able to focus their attention on stopping OSU's leading receiver, Markus Wheaton, who came into the game with 71 catches.
Wheaton, who caught 10 passes for 137 yards in last year's Civil War, was blanked in the first half when the game still was on the line and finished with two catches for 39 yards.
"They didn't do anything out of the norm," said Riley of the Ducks' defensive approach. "They were doing some difficult things on the weakside and we needed to adjust better, adjust our routes better."
Jenkins update: Jenkins, a former West Salem player, caught two passes for 7 yards, closing out the season with 31 catches while operating mainly as a third-down back. After the game, like a lot of the Beavers, he preferred to look ahead rather than behind.
"Dwelling on the past is something we don't want to do," he said. "You learn to look forward. We've got to start getting better and that starts as soon as we get back really.
Jenkins, a 6-foot-1, 205-pound junior, had offseason shoulder surgery and said he "still is working at getting back to 100 percent. I need to get in the weight room and build back my strength. It hasn't fully healed. There is a lot of wear and tear."
That happens in a 3-9 season.

Windows 8 preview hints versions get more complex, not less
updated 09:50 am EST, Fri March 2, 2012
Windows 8 may have up to nine editions
New digging in the recently launched Windows 8 Consumer Preview has suggested the number of versions could get more complicated. Windows 8 Beta found ten versions in the OS' registry, including an evaluation version of the enterprise copy, the necessary ARM edition, and a less clear Professional Plus.
Windows 7, by contrast, had six versions, all of which carry over to the Windows 8 code.
The preview is still several months away from the final launch and could see one or more versions culled, most likely the generic "prerelease" edition. HP has also leaked a possibly very simple lineup that might contradict Microsoft's software. Microsoft hasn't commented on the mentions.
If the registry reflects Microsoft's strategy, it hints at the company regressing from a promise to simplify Windows' range in the past few years. The complexity has been used as a frequent bullseye for criticism from Apple, which has had success with no more than two versions of OS X active at any given point.

The pH 11.8 of Calbe RO9/APH09 is not approximate, the way older R09 is made is to balance the developer so that there is no free hydroxide, at that point there is a very slight precipitation of p-Aminophenol free base crystals which is normal for this developer. That's been the case for over 100 years and only the later Agfa Gevaert version of Rodinal now sold as Adonal etc changed this.
The difference in pH 11.8 of Calbe R09/APH09 and Rodinal/Adonal etc's pH 14 is large but is purely because the first relies on more developing agent at a lower pH with no free Hydroxide and the second on less developing agent and a sgnificantly higher pH due to an excess of Hydroxide.

Degradation of neutrophil extracellular traps co-varies with disease activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus

Arthritis Research & Therapy 2013, 15:R84 doi:10.1186/ar4264Published: 14 August 2013
The ability to degrade neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is reduced in a subset of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). NETs consist of chromatin covered with antimicrobial enzymes and are normally degraded by DNase-I, an enzyme which is known to have reduced activity in SLE. Decreased ability to degrade NETs is associated with disease activity. In the current study we investigated how the ability of serum from SLE patients to degrade NETs varies during the course of SLE as well as what impact this may have for the clinical phenotype of SLE.
Serum from 69 patients with SLE, included in a prospective study, was taken every 60 days for a median of 784 days. The ability of serum to degrade NETs was determined and associated with clinical parameters occurring before and at the time of sampling, as well as after sampling by using conditional logistic regression.
As many as 41% of all patients in the study showed decreased ability to degrade NETs at least once, but with a median of 20% of all time points. Decreased degradation was associated with manifestations of glomerulonephritis as well as low complement levels and elevated levels of antibodies directed against histones and DNA. Furthermore, the odds ratio for the patient to develop alopecia and fever after an episode of decreased NETs degradation was increased by four to five times compared to normal.
Decreased degradation of NETs is associated with clinical manifestations in SLE and may contribute to disease pathogenesis. Potential therapeutics restoring the ability to degrade NETs could be beneficial for certain patients with SLE.

The cost of living in a long-term care facility increased steadily over the last year while home care costs have stayed flat, a new survey finds.
The Senate failed to approve legislation meant to enhance antipsychotic regulations in nursing homes, despite passing the bill to which it was attached.
Healthcare reform efforts intended to reduce hospital readmissions are here to stay, experts said during a recent McKnight's webcast.
A program meant to transition nursing home residents out of institutional care and into their own communities is not meeting projected transfer rates, a national analysis finds.
The risk for falls among newly admitted, short-stay nursing home residents is correlated to certified nursing assistant staffing levels, new research finds.
Seniors who've had shingles have a low short-term risk for coming down with the painful skin condition again, regardless of vaccination status, researchers say.
Lawmakers blasted a Medicaid anti-fraud program that has cost taxpayers more than five times as much as it recovered.
Daily use of antimicrobial wipes combined with standard bathing helped one facility cut its methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus transmission rate by 82%, a study found.
What's the biggest area that auditors are zeroing in on?
Federal officials unveiled a medication reduction initiative with an ambitious goal: trimming antipsychotic drug use among residents by 15% this year.
A GOP proposal to use Medicaid provider assessments to offset subsidies to the Stafford student loan program has drawn the fire of a leading provider association.
Yes, you are correct with your "grapevine" info but inspections will be focused on more than just infections. On April 12, 2012, OSHA announced a new plan called the NEP (National Emphasis Program), focusing on nursing and residential care facilities.
Nursing home residents, who often have at least one or more chronic condition, are among the sickest individuals treated by the American healthcare system. This population's high utilization rates of healthcare services also could result in higher rates of dissatisfaction, a new report suggests.
When taken daily to prevent recurrent urinary tract infections, antibiotics are more effective than daily doses of probiotics, or "good bacteria," a new study confirms.
Caregivers must be taught how to closely examine darkly pigmented skin in order to determine tissue damage. A purplish/blue discoloration may be seen.

It's all about the people
Afghanistan is a country with a long and difficult history, like many other nations, including our own (the United Kingdom). Freedom comes at a cost and sacrifices unfortunately need to be made. On a basic level its just that people desire a simple life, they have few needs, but they crave a safe place to live to let their children grow up.
The Afghans are no different to us in this respect, but they are of course different culturally. Yes this is a Muslim country but yet the culture is very different to that of Iraq which is also Muslim. There is almost always a pride in any nation or culture and this place is no different. People are people wherever you go. They sleep, eat (although diets vary), socialise, crap, laugh, cry and dream Fundamentally they are the same as you or I.
Afghanistan will manage itself, it has to and it is naive to think that they don't already, but their cultural make up is very different to ours. They manage themselves on a much more intimate level, where each village is an entity separate from other villages around them. Here in Helmand, the people don't really care what is going on in Kabul, they have no desire to own a 50 inch plasma TV, almost all of them don't even own a TV, few have radios or a car.
This is not a wealthy place in our terms yet is described as the bread basket of Afghanistan for its mineral rich soil. They will grow what they can sell here, poppy or wheat, what ever will help them feed their families. We would be no different I am sure. Should they really care what the west thinks they should grow? Existence here is tough, unbearably hot in the summer and freezing and wet in the winter.
This is a country of extremes. ISAF can not be here for ever, the government knows that, the people do too and the transition is moving on full speed towards a comprehensive security cover by its own forces. When the security forces are left to deal with any problems themselves which I am sure they will do, I have no doubt that they will manage. There will be hardships, but transition is a necessary step to grasp their own future. Only Afghanistan can ultimately choose its own path.
I wanted these images to show humanity, mood, character and highlight that upbringing notwithstanding we are the same. I don't speak any Pashtun or Dari (the two main languages spoken here in Helmand), and as a photographer I like to communicate with people, to direct a little for light and composition (at times), this was quite hard initially and to be honest I found the Afghans play up to the camera a bit and pose with ridiculous expressions. I have over the weeks developed a basic sign language to try to direct them a tiny bit at least. A funny thing happened the other day when I was out photographing some local Afghans during an operation, I had been out a while and was tired and saw this young guy who I wanted to photograph, he was back lit (a look I really don't mind), so I got the shot. After I showed him the image he gestured to me to take another, he pointed at the sun and changed his position relative to the sun. This was not something I thought I would have been able to get across in my basic sign language. I did prefer the second shot though!
