|Radiographic reduction of intussusception in patients with cystic fibrosis.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17594107 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder affecting approximately one in 2,500 births in the United States. Nearly 1% of patients with CF will develop intussusception, which is commonly ileocecal and felt to be secondary to inspissated feces. These patients generally present before the age of ten. Once the diagnosis of intussusception is confirmed on ultrasound or CT, surgery has been the mainstay of treatment in this patient group. We propose the use of air and contrast enemas as effective and beneficial non-operative approach in these patients. Clinical and imaging findings in four children with known CF who presented with intestinal intussusception, average age 13.25 +/- 5.3 years (range 8-18 years) were reviewed. Patients were diagnosed using ultrasound (n = 3) or abdominal CT (n = 1). All patients suffered from an ileocolic intussusception. Air and Gastrografin(R) enemas were used in an attempt to reduce the intussusception. There were six separate successful intussusception reductions in four patients. Three patients required multiple attempts (2.3 +/- 0.6). Air enemas were used initially in all cases. Gastrografin(R) was used successfully following the failure of air enema in one patient. One patient suffered three separate intussusceptions over a period of 18 months, which were all successfully reduced using air. There were no complications and the patients tolerated the procedure well. Intussusception is an uncommon but serious complication in children with CF. While surgical reduction has been the mainstay of treatment for these patients, we demonstrated that reduction of an intussusception using air or contrast can be accomplished safely, without anesthesia, and should be the initial treatment option.

Good morning, Social Rabbit here with you guide to the world of Social Media…
Today I have my reading glasses on, and as a big fan of reading I've been researching the best libraries on Facebook!
Willard Library have a great book news tab where you can sign up for their newsletters by genre, see what events they have coming up and search their catalog – it's like a mini library online. It is great to see that app's specifically for libraries are starting to pop up.
The British Library has a reviews tab where anyone can write a comment about their visit. As you know i am a big fan of the reviews tab for service based businesses, and this one is no exception. The British Library is more than just a library, it is an attraction therefore having a reviews tab makes perfect sense.
In the New York (one of my favourite cities) library you can sign up to their enews from the Facebook page. I really believe that anyone who has an enewsletter needs to have the option for people to join it from the Facebook page. I know that we hear that emails are passe, but in reality they still work
At Columbus Metropolitan library they are promoting their summer reading club. Promoting the offline online is a great way to get more bang for your buck, and they do this really well with video as well as an image.
Nyack Library are using the LibraryThing free application to promote books. The library have manually added these books and when you click on each book you have a description, an option to add a comment, author's details and you can add it to your own reading list. I think that this is a great idea, however not very well executed here, I mean 6 books? If you are going to do it do it properly, adding a few books each month, I think this looks a bit pitiful.
The New York public library has a great welcome/landing tab on their page. You can scroll through the section at the bottom and click on each image and it takes you through to that section of their website. Visually it is very appealing and also makes it really easy to see which services they offer.
I am pleasantly surprised by the innovation of libraries, as most are government owned and run and funding is always a drama. There is a lot I think that you can add to your page, and it's not going to cost money, just time. I mean lets face it you have so much content to write about that you could never run out… choose a book a day and open your audience's eyes to what is out there!
Thanks to Maureen from Lithgow library for the inspiration. Next week I will be drinking my way round wineries on Facebook… if only they had tasting tours online with real wine….

Mom Sells Baby for 15k$, editor should be fired
While this story is quite disturbing, the fact that this article wasn't proof read, disturbs me more.
I think they are trying to tell us that...
"Wismer and Gavaghan are both charged with Dealing in Children and Conspiracy in the Second Degree."
...because they repeat it twice in the article.
I'm pretty sure Iris Phillips thought the baby should have "been given to her sister OR someone". But that doesn't really help either because SHE DID GIVE IT TO SOMEONE, she just collected 15k$ for it.
At this point you should be afraid...very afraid for the future of this country. We seem to be getting stupider and stupider and stupider.
A new mom is in hot water after selling her newborn son for $15,000 so she could take her other two sons on a trip to Disney World, according to court documents.Bridget Wismer, 33, was arrested at her home in New Castle, Del. after she and the alleged baby buyer, John Gavaghan, 54, of Philadelphia, were caught on a surveillance camera taking care of the last bit of paperwork, according to New Castle County detectives.

Editor's Note: The Mountainsmith Ghost is still available for purchase, but not for much longer. Mountainsmith eliminates the MountainLite line (including the Ghost) for 2006, and is introducing a new TrekLite series. (See Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2005 dispatch here.)
The Mountainsmith Ghost is a lean-and-mean panel-loading single-compartment 3,000 cubic-inch (50 L) internal frame backpack. It features an interior hydration reservoir pocket, two hose ports, two exterior side pockets, a front panel criss-cross bungee cord, and a Delrin rod frame with an HDPE-and-Delrin top assembly supporting the shoulder yoke and load-lifter straps. Weighing but 2¼ pounds with a suggested 25-pound load limit, the Ghost is suitable for lightweight hikers who prefer a frame and rugged pack fabrics but can do without bells, whistles and compartmentalization. It also easily swallows bulky wintertime day-hike loads that overwhelm typical rucksacks. This review evaluates how well the Ghost handles when carrying the recommended load (and a bit more), its packing flexibility, and its toughness in the field.

Panel-load backpacks such as the Mountainsmith Ghost have fans and detractors. A major plus to the design is ease of packing, viewing, and retrieving your gear. Panel-loaders however, have historically been heavier than simpler top-loaders and the panel zip has sometimes proven to be a weak point: spreading open unexpectedly and discharging gear and presenting a prime rain entry point. As a result, the majority of lightweight backpacks load from the top, making the Ghost unique in its size and weight class.
I've alternated between carrying water in the interior hydration pocket (sewn to the inside of the back panel) and in the side exterior pockets, depending on the size of my load. With a full load, I stuff clothing in the hydration pocket to take advantage of the storage space and carry water outside; when I don't need the space I'll use the hydration pocket, routing the drinking hose out of one of the ports and tucking it under an elastic keeper strap conveniently provided on the front of each shoulder strap. The back panel padding does a pretty good job of keeping the water cool on a warm hiking day.
Each side pocket accommodates a 1 liter bottle plus a few extras - they're that big. Unlike many side pockets I've used, the Ghost's pockets are both large and sufficiently low-topped to be accessible while walking, and there are no interfering compression straps. (Now, was that so hard?) Trekking poles can be carried by putting them handle-first into the pockets and strapping them underneath the load control straps.
Ghost pockets have plenty of room.
Other exterior packing features include the bungee cord, an ice axe strap and a pair of lower carry straps. A rain jacket or windshirt, or the day's laundry can strap beneath the front bungee cord; a groundcloth or compact sleeping pad can strap on the lower carry straps; and an ice axe straps on using the furnished loop and a user-supplied strap or cord through the short daisy chain above. The axe strap is at the same height as the pad straps, probably to keep the axe accessible. The problem I have with this arrangement is that my long (non-technical) axe juts nearly a foot above the pack, placing it in accident-waiting-to-happen mode.
Good news for those who venture into wily bear country: the Ghost stores a Bearikade Weekender (9" width x 10.5" height) vertically or horizontally. Of course, as with any pack this size the canister dominates the interior, forcing some creativity in packing around it while maintaining load balance and comfort. The canister inevitably reduces effective pack volume.
The test Ghost is an LT (large torso) claimed to fit a 19-22 inch range. Because the shoulder strap attachment yoke and waist belt are sewn in place, there's no back length adjustment. (There's also a small Ghost and a women-specific Seraph in the series.) The yoke attaches rather low on the back panel compared to some packs so the shoulder straps wrap well over my shoulders in back, even though I'm on the shorter end of the specified fit range. While this configuration has caused control problems on other packs (excessive sway and a tendency to pull away from the shoulders) it doesn't seem to affect the Ghost, possibly because it's a short pack. In sum, the test pack fits me very well although I urge anyone on the long end of the torso range to fit-test a loaded one before purchase. Note too that because the Ghost only extends to shoulder height, it doesn't interfere with the head while looking up, nor collide with a full-brimmed hat.
Upon loading the Ghost, hoisting it and adjusting and cinching down the various straps (a. waist belt, b. shoulder straps, c. sternum strap, d. waist belt side control straps and e. top load control straps) it forms a lively, even springy load. The vertical rods bend and flex with the back, always keeping the back panel close and the load in control. Tellingly, the Ghost's fit doesn't impress until I cinch the top load-control straps: at that moment the fit goes from run-of-the-mill to stellar. (It feels much like a smaller brother of the Osprey Aether 60, my favorite long-haul pack, which uses a similar loaded rod [hoop] frame scheme.)
I'm constantly trimming great lengths of webbing from backpack waist belts because they're intended to fit EVERYONE, from the reed-thin to the Santa-sized. But there's no need with the Ghost; Mountainsmith has cleverly sidestepped the problem by including a waist belt extender. It's an extra length of webbing that buckles to the belt for those who need it. Smart! No more snip, melt, and sew. Other straps on the Ghost are likewise appropriately sized and are fashioned of the lightest webbing appropriate to the task, clear signs of evolutionary improvements.
The Ghost's front zip panel only opens roughly two-thirds of the way down, meaning it doesn't completely expose the main compartment. This didn't prove much of a limitation in the field and, as a benefit, means I can access the contents without laying the pack completely flat - a boon in the snow where a warm back panel quickly becomes soggy from snowmelt. The two-way zipper is of the water-resistant variety and is rather slender (the sliders comprise 100% of the metal found on the Ghost). A pair of side load-compressor straps also reinforces the zipped opening. I found I needed to close the zipper tabs near one of the straps, otherwise the zip had a tendency to spread open on its own on the trail. As an extra protection I clip the zipper loops together. Nobody wants to have their pack open up and spill gear in their wake.
Zip sliders can open up on the trail.
I generally followed Mountainsmith's suggested maximum 25-pound load as my target. I also explored weights up to 30 pounds, as it's not uncommon to tote several pounds of water between fill-ups later in the hiking season. The Ghost handles wonderfully at or below 25 pounds, and not badly up to 30 pounds. There's something special about this suspension and how it seems to dynamically manage the load. No magic here, just cunning suspension design that shuns metal stays and bulky padding, yet works. About the only flies in the ointment were that over the course of a few hours, the shoulder straps seem to rotate a bit inward and cause some irritation across my chest, and that I notice the load volume reducing as I used up water stored in the inner reservoir pocket, allowing items packed nearby to shift.
On level terrain, the Ghost hugs the back docilely, staying close but not drawing attention to itself in any fashion. On steep ground, there's only a minor tendency to bounce and shift. Proper strap tensioning maintains good load balance and control. I hiked a number of steep snowfields during this test, putting a premium on good load management, and the Ghost always came through.
I intentionally carried 25 and 30-pound loads that only partially filled the main compartment to see whether the pack maintained load control. (Frameless packs, by contrast, rely on rigid loads for structural support.) To its credit, the Ghost still carried well despite a lot of airspace (some of which can be reduced by cinching down the two compression straps). Weeklong hikes with significantly diminishing load volumes shouldn't affect the Ghost.
My test period included moderate bushwhacking and some rocky cross-country travel. The Ghost showed no ill effects from my travels. The Dimension Polyant fabric comprising the top and back panel and the heavy nylon rip-stop used for the bottom panel are tough, and show only the lightest of scuff marks. From experience, I know that a silnylon pack would show considerable wear given the same treatment, if not outright tears and punctures. There's some permanent distortion of shoulder strap and hipbelt fabrics and padding.
The Ghost has been out several years and Mountainsmith has listened to user feedback, making a number of improvements in response. The current Ghost maintains the original basic form, with several alterations:
Seemingly alone as a panel-loader in this weight and size class, the Ghost delivers the goods as an internal frame pack that carries 25 pounds comfortably and in complete control, while weighing only 1 kilogram itself. The dynamic pack frame seems to offer advantages in comfort and load management over more typical metal stay plus framesheet designs, and provides superior comfort and control compared to frameless packs, especially when carrying a partial load. The fact that it accomplishes all this at such a low price makes it a truly remarkable pack.
There's not much I'd change about the Ghost, but I'll suggest a few additions and one alteration:

Fujitsu intros first Santa Rosa PCs
updated 02:55 pm EDT, Wed May 9, 2007
Fujitsu Santa Rosa Release
Validating earlier FCC leaks, Fujitsu put itself in the midst of the Santa Rosa launch today with four new LifeBook models using the enhanced processors. Commanding the announcement is the T4220 tablet. As confirmed, the system will be unusually quick among tablets with a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo. 1GB of RAM, a 120GB hard drive, and a DVD-RW drive are now part of the stock configuration along with the already-known 802.11a/b/g and Bluetooth. It ships later in the spring starting at $1,750.
Along with the T4220 come two 15.4-inch notebooks. The A6030 is Fujitsu's new home user PC with a 1.8GHz Core 2 Duo, a 120GB hard drive, and Intel X3100 video; rare among portables is a highly sensitive touchpad that can be used for handwriting as well as usual mouse control. The performance-minded and business users will want the E8410, Fujitsu says. While the same size, it has the option of a GeForce 8400M GS graphics chip and 802.11n. It will also be one of the very first Centrino Pro systems to ship, letting IT admins remotely guard and maintain the system even when the notebook is turned off. The A6030 and E8410 ship before the end of June beginning at $1,249 and $1,299 respectively.
Fujitsu has rounded out the introductions with the E8310, one of the few remaining notebooks with a standard-ratio screen that caters to businesses. Its abilities are a close match for the A6030 and help bring the price down to $1,200 for its spring release window.

The consulting firm hired by Gov. Bobby Jindal's administration for economic analysis of his tax plan said in a report this week that states should not enact a key plank of Jindal's proposal.
Ernst & Young economists say sales taxes on services bought by businesses are bad ideas because companies pass those costs to customers or shrink economic activity in a state where such taxes are levied.
Jindal is proposing a new 6.25 percent state sales tax on services that would fall on businesses of the type that is the focus of the Ernst & Young criticism. The tax would be charged when businesses pay other ...

It's no joke. Stephen Colbert is officially publishing a children's book. "I Am A Pole (and So Can You!)" is slated to hit store shelves and the Web on May 8.
Colbert pitched the idea of a kid's book about a flag pole during part-two of a two-part interview last month with Maurice Sendak, legendary author of "Where the Wild Things Are." The interview was a huge hit and Colbert's fans pressed for an actual book.
In the interview, Colbert even got Sendak to endorse the project in the announcement. Sendak offered two blurbs: "It's terribly ordinary," and "The sad thing is I like it."
Here's the interview and a sneak peek at the book. I do hope if this actually goes to print, that they lose the stripper stanza. Other than that, it looks as good as anything else out there these days. Let me know what you think:

Boot Camp/Tone/Sculpt
Zumba is an energetic and fun dance aerobics class with a Latin feel. Zumba is the latest craze in dance fitness and it attracts people of all ages and ability levels because of its infectious energy. You have to try it… you will LOVE it! For Monday night Zumba we turn the lights low and have a disco ball going, so much fun! No equipment needed for this class. Zumba instructors will be on a rotation. This way you will get a lot of variety!
This class is a full hour of toning, sculpt, and conditioning. We will use a variety of movements and equipment for every part of your body. This class is to tone and define the muscles and achieve maximum results from your work outs. This class will also have "power" nights where we focus more on a particular muscle group and may also use interval training to add in a little cardio for even more muscle definition. A great class, and as always at our studio, made to be fun! For this class we use 5-8 lb weights, ball, bands, and a mat.
Pilates is an amazing way to shape your body for longer leaner muscles and strengthen your core. Most people know and have experienced the benefits of Pilates; it will change your body and strengthen and stretch you in ways that other exercise regimens cannot. Rochelle is the instructor and she has years of experience to make this class both enjoyable and effective. For this class you will need a mat and weights.
Ballet Aerobics
This class is for those who would like to try easy ballet movements that will condition and tone your body in a whole new way. Ballet dancers have long muscles from using posture and technique to control their muscles and gain strength through movement that stretches through the entire muscle and pushes your flexibility. This is not a ballet technique class. This class is meant to condition and tone. Ballet movement will improve your posture, body control, strength, and flexibility. For this class you will need to find your own comfort level for shoes. Either dance shoes or socks should work.
Kick boxing Cardio/Weights
Kick boxing is fun and a great cardio work out, but it also tones and conditions at the same time. This class will have very basic kick boxing moves taught in an easy to follow format. Kick boxing will be combined with toning and weights for a full body work out. This class uses 3-10 lb free weights and a mat.
Yoga is such a great way to build strength and flexibility all at the same time. Yoga uses poses that require strength as you move and hold each pose, flexibility and balance as you maintain and hold the pose. As we get older it is so important for each of us to stay strong, but also equally important to stretch and maintain muscle fluidity. Yoga will sometimes be combined with Pilates movement for versatility and strength in movement. Yoga is also a great avenue for meditation and relaxation for the body and the mind. For this class you will need a mat.

Kick boxing
and more....
Plyometrics is also known as "jump training" and is designed to force the muscles to exert the maximum amount of energy in a short period of time. These exercises increase speed and power and is also very effective in burning a lot of calories. Because of the intensity of doing these jump series the instructor will fuse in weights, yoga, pilates, and other toning exercises in intervals. This class will use weights, mats, bands, and balls as equipment.

One important thing to note about "Side Effects" before seeing it: The less you know going in, the more you'll enjoy it.
As crafted by director Steven Soderbergh and writer Scott Z. Burns - they worked together on "Contagion" and "The Informant!" - "Side Effects" is a trippy, genre-shifting experience. It isn't simply that the plot shifts gears; the movie essentially switches genres midstream. It starts out as one type of film and ends up as another, and manages the transition seamlessly.
The movie introduces us to Emily (Rooney Mara), a woman whose husband, Martin (Channing Tatum), has just ...

I have looked under the plastic engine cover and have not been able to locate it. I have checked the EGR Valve and it is good and I have also replaced the EGR Vacuum Solenoid and that was not the problem either. So the only thing left is the Sensor.

I dont have a picture of it. But thats probably your problem, do you have a code 401 or flow code? The fat rubber hoses go into the exhaust, just look at all the exhaust under the hood and you cant miss it. Do you have the new sensor already?

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) -- A Loveland man accused of conspiring with his girlfriend to rob a suspected pedophile and kidnap his daughter has pleaded guilty to attempted extortion.
Attorney Patrick Esser tells the Coloradoan his client Dustin Canup accepted the plea agreement with prosecutors Tuesday. Co-defendant Sareena Morrison has not yet entered a plea.
According to arrest affidavits, the couple told investigators of a scheme in which they would monitor a pornographic website to find men who wanted Morrison to engage in sex acts with children, then would try to extort or rob the men. The affidavits allege the two said they planned to kidnap the daughter of one target and raise her as their own.
Canup is scheduled to be sentenced June 18.

Why are we talking about the 2014 NFL Draft? It's because Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, has decided that training camp is boring (he's mostly right) and that he wants the world to know that the Cowboys almost took Johnny Football with the 16th pick in the draft. They went with offensive tackle Zack Martin, who must be feeling great right now, instead. This is kind of a shame, since Manziel on the Cowboys would have been the Lime to Dallas' gin and tonic of suffering and despair.
"I want you to know that almost as I was handing in the card, it was that close to putting that Manziel card in," Jones told reporters. "It was that close." Ignore, for a minute, how much of a massive misstep grabbing Manziel would have been for the Cowboys, because everyone knows that it would have been monumentally incorrect. They needed to upgrade their defense, and they already have a solid quarterback who's almost certainly going to be better than Manziel will be next year. Ignore that and channel Pepé Le Pew: Le Sigh.
Imagine Manziel, who was drafted by Cleveland, as a Cowboy. How is he not the quintessential Cowboy? It would have been perfect for all the reasons that have nothing to do with football, and it's not to be. At least for now.
You can use this bit of media back and forth as an argument for why Jones shouldn't be allowed to make personnel decisions, but there's more fun to be had if you use this as an argument for why Jerry Jones should be allowed to make all the personnel decisions. Watching the video above, there's a sense that the anarchic chaos of Jones' whims controls the Cowboys' draft selection — and we believe that should be enabled at all costs. Pour one out for Johnny Football, Dallas Cowboys Quarterback.

Northfield Hospital's Breast Care Center is sponsoring a "breast cancer awareness" event this Friday when the Northfield Raiders take on the Chaska Hawks at Memorial Field. Game time is 7 p.m.
All of the Northfield players will be wearing pink socks, and fans are encouraged to wear pink in support of breast cancer awareness. Materials related to breast care best practices will be available in game programs.
Kari Elliason, RN, Breast Care Coordinator, said the event is an effort to encourage women age 40 and older to have an annual mammogram screening.
"The goal of screening exams is to find cancer before symptoms are expressed," Elliason said. "Early detection saves many thousands of lives each year. Following the American Cancer Society's guidelines for screenings improves the chances that breast cancer can be diagnosed at an early stage and treated successfully."
Elliason is grateful for the support she has received from the football team.
"Their cooperation and enthusiasm have given us an opportunity to raise awareness about this important health issue on a big community stage," she said.
Northfield Hospital's Breast Care Center features a direct-digital mammogram unit with a mammo pad for extra comfort. The direct digital system provides a clearer image and more detail. This leads to more accurate diagnoses and the ability to detect cancers at an earlier stage.

Sully District Merit Badge Counselors
SULLY DISTRICT MERIT BADGE DEAN: Deanna Quiterio, email@example.com
Merit Badge Counselors are registered adult members of the Boy Scouts of America. REGISTRATION AS A MERIT BADGE COUNSELOR IS SEPARATE FROM REGISTRATION FOR OTHER POSITIONS, such as Assistant Scoutmaster or Troop Committee Member. A Merit Badge Counselor must fill out and submit two forms, and must have current Youth Protection Training that is good through the end of the calendar year.
Merit Badge Counselors are registered with the District in addition to any registered positions in a unit that they may hold. For example, a Venturing Crew Committee Member who is also a Merit Badge Counselor will show up on the crew roster as a Committee Member, and will show up on the District roster as a Merit Badge Counselor.
Merit Badge Counselors whose Youth Protection Training expires are dropped from District registration and may not counsel merit badges until they are properly re-registered. Merit Badge Counselors who remain current with Youth Protection Training and wish to continuing serving will be carried over from year to year when the District recharters, without the need to submit new forms.
Unit Advancement Chairs play an important role in maintaining a current Merit Badge Counselor list. Where a current or prospective Merit Badge Counselor is part of a Boy Scout Troop, Varsity Scout Team, or Venturing Crew, the unit Advancement Chair should collect all registration forms for submission to the District, maintain a list of individuals whose applications have been submitted to the District but have not yet been approved, and maintain a current list of all unit members who are currently registered Merit Badge Counselors, the merit badges that each counsels, and the expiration dates of each Merit Badge Counselor's Youth Protection Training. This unit list should be checked at least monthly and Merit Badge Counselors with expiring Youth Protection Training should be notified so that it can be renewed in a timely fashion. Unit Advancement Chairs should be the primary contact with the District Merit Badge Dean, who maintains the current Merit Badge Counselor List.
Forms Required (Fillable PDFs)
Merit Badge Counselor Information & Registration Form - (2013 printing) This form is used to indicate which merit badges the individual would like to counsel, qualifications for each merit badge, and whether he or she will only work with Scouts from a particular unit.
Merit Badge Counselor Adult Application Form - (NCAC 5-2012) This form is the standard BSA adult application form, customized for merit badge counselors.
Certificate of completed Youth Protection Training to be submitted with the two application forms.
1. Prepare the forms. If you are a current Merit Badge Counselor and just want to add merit badges that you counsel, you only need the Merit Badge Counselor Information & Registration Form. If you are a current Merit Badge Counselor and just want to delete merit badges that you counsel, just email your unit leader and Advancment Chair, if you are with a unit, or email the Merit Badge Dean directly if you are not with a unit.
2. Submit the forms. If you are with a unit, provide the form(s) to the unit Advancement Chair, who will add you to the list of pending applications, and submit your form(s) to the District Executive. If you are not with a unit, submit your forms to the District Executive.
3. Wait patiently while the application forms are processed. Sometimes it takes a while for your name to appear on the official roster as a registered Merit Badge Counselor.
4. While you are waiting, get trained as a Merit Badge Counselor. See below.
5. When you have been officially added to the roster, you (and the unit Advancement Chair, if you are with a unit) will be notified.
6. Maintain your Youth Protection Trainiing certification. DO NOT LET IT LAPSE, EVEN FOR A DAY. Always renew your YPT BEFORE it expires.
7. Every year, you will be asked if you want to continue as a Merit Badge Counselor. Please respond promptly! If we do not hear from you, you will be dropped from the roster.
All merit badge counselors should seek training. It is important that they have a full understanding of their responsibilities and also of the recommended practices for quality counseling. The presentation "The Essentials of Merit Badge Counseling" has been designed for this purpose and covers the following topics:
A Scouting overview: mission, aims, and methods

By Pennie Rorex, Guest ColumnistFor those of you who don't know me well, you may be surprised to read that I grew up on an almond ranch. My two sisters married almond farmers and have lived happily ever after in what I refer to as "the dirt." I, however, fled to suburbia as soon as I turned 18. As Eva Gabor used to chant during the Green Acres theme song, "Dah-ling I love you but give me Park Avenue."
My idea of camping is at "Camp Hilton"- on the concierge floor, please. My idea of roughing it is reheating leftovers on the stove, instead of zapping them in the microwave. My idea of catching fish is selecting between shrimp or scallops at the local seafood counter.
Yes, I'm prissy.
So, I was rather amused when my friend Pam shared the recent release of the Science Museum's "Top 50 Things We Couldn't Live Without." Sunshine ranked number one on the survey of 3,000 museum visitors. My husband, who grew up on the Oregon coast, probably concurs. Number two on the list-internet connection. Ranking number three, clean drinking water. An internet connection over clean drinking water? Really?
Speaking of clean-get this! Number nine on the list-a flushing toilet and number 12-a shower. From one prissy to another-I'd rank clean water, a flushing toilet and a shower much higher on the list.
So, with all these priorities, just what do you think ranked number five on the list? A fridge? Washing machine? A car? Well, guess again. Number five-yes, number five on the "Top 50 Things We Couldn't Live Without" is....drum roll please...Facebook!
What? Facebook is more vital than clean drinking water or a shower? You've got to be kidding me!
This whole survey got me stirring. What would Miss Priss rank on her "Top Five Things" that she couldn't live without? Since this was a list of things and not people, I had to think materialistically. On first pass, here was my list-See's Candies (chocolate cures everything), a fast computer, a smart phone, a cushy memory foam bed and a soothing warm shower.
Good grief! What a shallow list!
Then I started to get serious about this "Top Five" task. Really. What is it that I could not live without? And then all of this prissiness came into focus. I cannot live without access to healthcare. If my life was threatened with a heart attack, or cancer, or any other major illness, I would not survive without medical treatment. That's the reason that my city-dweller husband and I are donors to Legacy Circle of Emanuel, the hospital's annual fund drive that grows new healthcare services in these green acres.
So what's on your "Top Five" list? Is it healthcare? If it is, then I invite you to donate to Legacy Circle so that we can build two new cardiac surgery suites at Emanuel. Our non-profit hospital needs your support for the $10.5 million cardiovascular services program so that we can care for you if crisis strikes. Whether you live in "the dirt" or suburbia, this hospital is about saving your life. It's what we do!

Girl Scouts from around the country will mark the 102nd anniversary of our organization's founding during Girl Scout Week, celebrated this year on March 9-15. The week begins and ends with the observation of two important days, Girl Scout Sunday (March 9) and the Girl Scout Sabbath (March 15), in which Girl Scouts are encouraged to participate in the service at their church or house of worship.
Everything in Girl Scouting is based on the Girl Scout Promise and Law, which include many of the principles and values common in most faiths. The motivating force in Girl Scouting is spiritual, and we encourage and support every girl to grow in her religion, as we work to foster an environment that celebrates a girl's spirituality, even as we champion inclusion and mutual respect for all religious beliefs.
At Girl Scouts Louisiana East, we are committed to strengthening our relationship with faith communities, and encourage girls to explore spirituality via their own faiths. By carefully examining the Girl Scout Law and directly tying it to tenets of her faith, a girl can earn the My Promise My Faith pin each year she participates in Girl Scouting.
Girl Scouts are encouraged to become stronger members of their religious denomination, with every Girl Scout troop recognizing that religious instruction is the responsibility of parents and religious leaders.
There are over 50 faiths/denominations that have developed religious recognition programs for Girl Scouts, which are administered by the religious groups themselves, and may be earned by girls with the guidance of their parent, leader, and pastor, priest, rabbi or other spiritual leader.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank the churches who provide our troops with a meeting location. We can't thank you enough for allowing the girls and adult volunteers use of your facility. If your church or synagogue does not presently host a Girl Scout troop and would like to, please call the council office in New Orleans at 504-733-8220 or Baton Rouge at 225-927-8946. Tell the operator the location of your place of worship and she will connect you with someone who will be delighted to work with you.

Some are from big moments in big games; others are snapshots that you'd never would have known if not for a quick finger and clean lens. I'm continually grateful that news organizations put a premium on covering games with equal parts dedication to the pen as they do the camera. Enjoy this fantastic work.

Rick Carlisle upbeat after his daughter nails it at piano recital
Rick Carlisle already felt like a winner when he got to the arena for Game 4 Saturday afternoon.
"I'm especially fired up for tonight because my daughter kicked ass in her piano recital today," he said. "I want everybody to know that."
Carlisle said his daughter, Abby, who turns 8 on Monday, played two selections. And neither of them was Queen's We Are The Champions.
"Her and I have been working on these pieces for a long time, so I feel invested," Carlisle said. "It's great. I would go (to the recital), no matter what, but I don't want to make it too big an issue."
As for tonight's game, Carlisle gave no hints about whether he would tweak his center rotation, other than saying: "Stay tuned."
Don't be surprised if Ian Mahinmi is in the starting lineup.

LOS ANGELES - Modern Hollywood has never been much of a playground for aging actors.
But lately, the kids have been downright snotty to the Geritol generation.
Over the past two weeks, former big-screen titans Arnold Schwarzenegger, 65, Sylvester Stallone, 66, and Al Pacino, 72, have not only seen their films open to less-than-stellar numbers, they're not even cracking the top 5. ...

Compare prices
Want to see what this recipe costs at different supermarkets? Compare in one place here:
Xylitol is a natural sweetener made from the bark of birch trees. It looks and tastes like sugar and can be used as a substitute in many recipes. It is low GI and therefore has less impact on blood sugar levels. It is available from large supermarkets and health food shops.
- Preheat the oven to 180C/ 160C fan/ Gas mark 4. Grease and line an 18cm round cake tin with baking parchment. Set aside 12 pecans and roughly chop the rest.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cinnamon, bicarbonate of soda, xylitol and chopped pecans.
- In a separate bowl or jug, beat the eggs and rapeseed oil together. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until combined. Stir through the carrot and sultanas. Spoon into the lined tin, smooth the surface and press whole pecans to form a circle around the edge.
- Cook for 1 hour - 1 hour 10 mins until the top feels springy to the touch and a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Check after 50 mins, if the cake is becoming too dark, cover loosely with foil. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn out and allow to cool. Serve slightly warm or cold. This cake keeps for up to five days in a tin. Before serving, drizzle with agave syrup if you have a sweet tooth.

Comments, questions and tips
Just to say to all of you people thinking this cake is a heathy option for you because it is sugar free. This cake is not for all of you 'this cake is so heathy' people, who cares about how many calories it has, it is designed for diabetics and dairy intolerant people to have the chance to have a bit of cake. So please stop complaining about how unhealthy it is, why don't you just go eat some salad?
Overall a good recipe.
This recipe is NOT "Sugar-free" as stated, as sultanas are full of sugars (maybe natural sugars, but still sugars. Carrots are also full of sugars. Agave syrup also has 72% sugar content (clear honey has 77%, just for comparison).
If you add up all the macronutrients, this recipe has in excess of 11g of sugars per SMALL slice. That is simply NOT "Sugar-free".
To call this cake "Sugar Free" is not only misleading but is an entirely FALSE claim (if it was sold in a shop or café as "Sugar-Free" it would actually be illegal!).
Please, PLEASE, BBC GOOD FOOD (and all other Food sites/Books/Chefs) stop misleading the public with claims of "Sugar Free".
Sugar is Sugar, whether it's from Table sugar, fresh fruit, dried fruits, Agave, Honey or wherever... it STILL affects Blood Sugar levels and insulin and is NOT automatically healthy just because it's from a "natural" source.
Even worse, such false claims can be dangerous for Diabetics who might see this and think it is "Sugar Free" so OK for them to eat.
To put this into perspective, a single finger of a Twix chocolate bar has 12.2g of sugars, and a 2 finger Kit Kat chocolate bar has 10g of Sugars. Yet this recipe has over 11g sugars per SMALL slice, and is claiming to be "Sugar Free"..... It ISN'T.
I didn't use the agave syrup, (which makes a big difference). Also, sultanas are moderate on the NHS GI list, (as far as I know), so from this perspective it's not too bad. I think perhaps that the member who supplied this recipe meant that it was free of sugar, (or sucrose as in caster sugar) rather than fructose or other sugars. It certainly isn't sugar-free though when all sugar-types are considered.
It also contains rapeseed oil rather than bad saturated fat-loaded butter; ideal for those diabetics who also commonly suffer from high cholesterol.
Not much use for diabetics this cake when it is FULL of sugar because of the sultanas. I thought it was a straightforward carrot cake, not carrot and sultanas. And 404 calories per slice? It's lethal and so unhealthy this cake!
For alanjns, Xylitol is readily available in Britain, America and the rest of Europe. I buy it from Dolphin Fitness, who did it in kilo bags, £2 cheaper if you buy 4 together, and free postage, the date for which you can choose!
I made this cake for the first time after reading all comments so I took everyones advice and put in a little less bicarbonate of soda
cook the cake in a slightly large tin 20cm for 45- 50 mins left the
baking parchment on the bottom of the cake over night also whisked the eggs and rapeseed oil together before starting anything else and the cake was fantastic I have now made 7 more cakes for family and friends great recipe

Machinery Pete: Red-lover's dream auction
Can't believe I'm about to say this, but here goes.
Last Saturday (September 6), on a farm auction in west-central Iowa, a 2008 CaseIH 2588 combine with 0 engine hours sold for $225,000. It's not that I can't believe a combine selling for $225,000 at auction. The kicker is, that wasn't the most amazing item sold on this auction.
Not by a long shot.
How about a restored 1966 IHC 1206 tractor with 3,696 hours selling for $32,250? Or a nice 1970 IHC 1456 tractor for $26,000? More? Okay, there was the restored 1959 IHC 560 diesel tractor with 4,722 hours sold for $9,200, or the restored 1953 IHC H tractor for $16,250.
I could keep going.
What a sale this was for lovers of red equipment! I've seen a lot of auctions in my 19 years of tracking auction sale price data, but this one has to rank right up there with the best of the bunch. So odd to find an auction like this featuring both super condition late model equipment...hard to get much more late model than 0 hours on a 2008 combine, along with super condition older equipment that has been lovingly restored.
Shiny red equipment to salivate over for folks that prefer new or old stuff.
Can't believe I'm about to say this, but here goes.

Freedom is an illusion.
By Jason Imms on July 31, 2014 at 2:59 pm
Nothing's every really free, is it? Last week we reported that EA were providing free copies of The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection via Origin, via redemption code I-LOVE-THE-SIMS.
This week we find out that there is a catch: The copy of The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection comes with the much-maligned SecuROM DRM software, which has been known in the past to stick around after containing software is deleted, throw false piracy flags, and refuse to read authentic discs. It has been labelled by many as spyware.
Reclaim Your Game did some snooping around and found that SecuROM version 07.40.0009 was included with the version of The Sims 2 Ultimate Edition provided for free by EA, and has taken the opportunity to resurface a guide for its removal.
