ATLANTA -- There are bad commutes, and then there is what happened here this week.
When a light snow started falling Tuesday afternoon, Saquana Bonaparte, 31, left her factory job and headed out to get her daughter from school in one of the city's northern suburbs.
She ended up inching along in her car for almost 12 hours, and survived on a half bag of beef jerky and a small bottle of Mountain Dew. With no bathroom, she did what she had to in the car.
Like tens of thousands of Atlanta-area drivers, she spent the night on jammed roads with other desperate drivers who had never seen anything like the sheet of ice that coated the city.
"It was like something you would see if they told you the plague broke out and you had to run for your life," she said.
By late Wednesday afternoon, some people remained stuck on the highway, but the hundreds of children who had been forced to spend the night at school had made it home.
By keeping schools and government offices open, and by not requiring tractor-trailers to use chains or stay out of the city's core, metropolitan Atlanta gambled and lost.
And Wednesday, Mayor Kasim Reed and Gov. Nathan Deal were by turns defensive and apologetic.
"We don't want to be accused of crying wolf," said Deal, who pointed out that the storm had been forecast to just brush the south side of the city.
If the city had closed and the storm had been as light as some forecasters had told him it was going to be, he said, money would have been lost and people would have complained.
"We would have shut a major city down for a day," he said. "We can never promise that we will always be correct when it comes to deciding what Mother Nature will do."
Reed, who was combative in media briefings, said many of the problems had occurred on state roads. The city was more prepared than it had ever been, he said.
The real problem, he said, was a vast and unexpected flow of people who took to the roads at nearly the same time.
"We made a mistake by not staggering when people should leave, so I'll take responsibility for that," he said.
Other cities were caught off guard, as well. In Birmingham, Ala., more than 1,500 students spent Tuesday night at school and more were expected to be stuck at school Wednesday night, too.
In all, six Southern states declared emergencies. The rare Southern winter storm stretched to Brownsville, Texas. Ice and snow coated Charleston, S.C.; Augusta, Ga.; New Orleans and dozens of other Southern communities ill-equipped to deal with it.
But nothing compared to the Atlanta experience, which began when many of the city's residents took to the roads from noon to 2 p.m. There was not much snow -- only a couple of inches in most parts of the city -- but as parents' vehicles, school buses and tractor-trailers filled the highways, the roads iced over and everything stopped.
Tori Linder, 22, was on her way to her job at a neonatal intensive care unit when she got caught in a traffic jam on Interstate 285. She spent 22 hours in her Ford Focus, too scared to step out of the car and too nervous to sleep for fear that traffic would start moving at any moment.
She sent messages to Facebook and took calls and advice from friends and family. She fought a headache and hunger, trying not to focus on going to the bathroom and rationing her water. She had to turn off her car when it began to overheat.
"It makes you very emotional after a while," she said.
Finally, at about 11 a.m. Wednesday, a friend of a friend walked across the highway and helped her trek about a mile and a half to shelter.
"I didn't see any kind of emergency help all night," she said. "I relied on friends and family to keep me going. People here are so sweet."

The U.S. Philatelic Classics Society is dedicated to engaging young people in the collection and study of classic U.S. stamps. One area of the Society's engagement is through its support of the American Philatelic Society's Young Philatelic Leaders Fellowship (YPLF). Since 2010, the Classics Society has sponsored one participant per year in this exciting Youth Philately program.
The YPLF was founded in 2008 by USPCS Life Member and former Publicist Alex Haimann in partnership with the American Philatelic Society. The YPLF's purpose is to seek out and engage the most enthusiastic young stamp collectors (ages 13-25) in United States. Once in the program, the YPLF provides for these young collectors to attend the events and visit the places that make philately exciting including the APS winter AmeriStamp show, the summer StampShow, the Smithsonian National Postal Museum and the American Philatelic Society's headquarters. Each Fellow chooses one of three Tracks (Author, Dealer or Exhibitor) in which they will complete a number of projects related to that Track. Throughout the course of the yearlong Fellowship, these Youth Fellows interact with a number of adult mentors who will guide each Fellow through their chosen Track.

In 2013, people who receive Social Security or Supplemental Security Income payments will see their benefits increase.
Beginning in 2013, a 1.7 percent cost-of-living adjustment was applied to all Social Security and SSI payments. The average monthly Social Security benefit for a retired worker in 2013 is $1,261 (up from $1,240 in 2012) and the average monthly Social Security benefit for a disabled worker in 2013 is $1,132 (up from $1,113 in 2012). These changes will be reflected in SSI payments dated Dec. 31 and Social Security payments dated in January 2013.
For people who receive SSI, the maximum federal payment amount has risen to $710 (up from $698).
Other Social Security changes are worth noting. For example, a worker now pays Social Security tax on up to $113,700 of annual income (up from $110,100 in 2012). A worker earns one credit after paying taxes on $1,160 in earnings in 2013 (up from $1,130).
As always, a worker may earn a maximum of four credits each year and a person generally needs 40 credits (or 10 years of work) to be eligible for retirement benefits.
To learn more about these and other changes, visit the Social Security website at http://www.socialsecurity.gov, and read our fact sheet about the changes at http://www.socialsecurity.gov/pressoffice/factsheets/colafacts2013.htm.
Question: What can I do if I think someone has stolen my identity?
Aanswer: You should do several things, including:
-- File a report with the local police or the police department where the identity theft took place, and keep a copy of the police report as proof of the crime;
-- notify the Federal Trade Commission (1-877-438-4338);
-- and file a complaint with the Internet Crime Complaint Center at http://www.ic3.gov; and contact the fraud units of the three major credit reporting bureaus: Equifax (1-800-525-6285); Trans Union: (1-800-680-7289); and Experian: (1-888-397-3742).

The Great Library Bake-off!
A Baking Contest for the St. Helena Public Library and the Napa County Libraries: Calistoga, Yountville, Napa, and American Canyon
All entries must be baked in the oven to be eligible. Fried or otherwise prepared foods will not be accepted. We are also not including regular bread. The first three entry categories relate to the baking container used; the fourth relates to types of pastry. The categories are:
- Baking Dish or Loaf Pan
- Muffin Tin
- Baking Sheet
- Flaky or Fancy Pastry
Please keep to the designated categories of breakfast baked goods. The brief definitions and examples below will help you decide which category your yummy entry fits into. Please direct any category or other contest questions to email@example.com.
Baking Dish or Loaf Pan
This category is intended for such baked items as coffee cakes and quick breads. The baking dish can be square, rectangular, or round. Quick breads aren't breads at all, but more like coffee cakes, except that they are baked in a loaf pan instead of a baking dish.
Muffin Tin
A muffin tin is formed of cups, which can be either very small or medium sized. The most common use of a muffin tin is, of course, for muffins. Muffin batter is dropped into the muffin-tin cups before baking.
Baking Sheet
Baking sheets or cookie sheets are used for a number of small quick breads, such as biscuits, scones, breakfast rolls, and breakfast buns. Biscuits are dropped onto the baking sheet, while scones are cut into a triangular shape and placed on the sheet. The dough for breakfast rolls and breakfast buns is shaped before being placed on the sheet.
Flaky or Fancy Pastry
Flaky pastry includes such breakfast favorites as croissants and puff pastries. A croissant is often formed in the shape of a crescent. A puff pastry is made by alternating layers of pastry dough with butter. Fancy pastry includes Danishes and strudels. A Danish has a largish round shape and the center often contains a filling. A strudel is made from a thin sheet of dough that is wrapped around a filling. It usually has a square or rectangular shape.
This contest has no preregistration, but you must register your entry when you bring it to the library. Please bring your entry to the St. Helena Public Library between 4:00 pm and 5:30 pm on Thursday, November 7th. No entries will be accepted after that time. Again, your entry must fit the designated breakfast baking categories.
- Both inexperienced and experienced bakers are eligible to enter, but all baked goods must be made in a home kitchen.
- Your entry must be made from scratch—no mixes or store-bought entries, please.
- You may enter only one baked item per category. If your entry fits more than one category, you must pick the category that you believe is the most suitable.
- You may enter as many categories as you like, but each entry must be a different baked item.
- Your entry will be judged on taste, texture, and appearance.
- Judges may enter the contest but may not judge the category(ies) they have entered.
PRESENTATION & CONTEST ENTRY: 4:00–5:30 pm
- For baking dish or loaf pan entries, please supply one complete dish or loaf pan. Do not cut your entry for tasting. Judges will view and taste your entry as it is presented. Baked items will then be cut as uniformly as possible for the public tasting, as needed.
- For other categories, please plan to make enough baked items to fill one large platter or plate. The number of items will vary according to their size. Judges will view and taste your entry as it is presented. Baked items will then be cut as uniformly as possible for the public tasting, as needed.
- Please identify dishware with your name and phone number on the bottom, if you would like it returned.
- Please take your dishware with you after the event or pick up at the front desk as soon as possible.
- Entries must be received and registered at the library between 4:00 pm and 5:30 pm on the day of the contest. Your entry will be registered into one of the four categories and you will provide your name and phone number.
JUDGING: 6:00–7:00 pm
Judging will take place between 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm. Judging is not open to the public. A Presiding Judge will monitor the judging and collect the votes. Each of the four categories will be judged by three judges. All the judges will vote for Best in Show (picked from the four categories). Judges will be chosen from last year's bake-off winners and members of the community.
PUBLIC TASTING & PEOPLE'S CHOICE: 7:00–8:00 pm
Entrants and the community are invited to taste all entries, beginning at 7:00 pm. Tasting will continue until 8:00 pm or so. Decaffeinated coffee, milk, and water will be provided.
The public is invited to vote for the People's Choice. Each person will be given eight tickets with which to vote. Tickets are free. Voters may use their tickets as they like, voting for eight different times, voting randomly, or voting for just one entry. Votes will be counted at the end of the public tasting.
A DEMONSTRATION BY BARBARA PASANO, 8:00–8:20 pm
While the People's Choice votes are being counted, Barbara Pasano will give some tips and tricks about baking for breakfast enjoyment. Barbara is a master pastry chef and co-owner of a local bed and breakfast.
JUDGING RESULTS & PRIZES: 8:20–8:40 pm
As soon as all People's Choice votes have been counted, the winners of each category will be announced, to be followed by the judges' Best in Show and the People's Choice. Fantastic prizes will be awarded to all!
Winners must be prepared to share their recipes with the library director (firstname.lastname@example.com) within 24 hours of winning, which will be posted on the library's website and Facebook. Winners are asked to remain after the ceremonies for a group photo to be taken.
The St. Helena Public Library has upped the ante for this year's bake-off contest by inviting all the Napa County libraries to throw their rolling pins into the ring. The event in St. Helena will be followed by duplicate events at NCL libraries in November: American Canyon, the 13th; Napa, the 14th; Calistoga, the 20th; and Yountville, the 21st. The winners of Best in Show and People's Choice from each library will be finalists in the countywide Great Library Bake-Off Showdown, to be hosted on Thursday, January 16th, at the St. Helena Public Library. May the best library win!

MUHLENBERG COUNTY, KY (10/5/12) – Today's kids know everything about everything, but how much do they know about the using money wisely? First Kentucky's participation in the "Lights, Camera, Save!" contest seeks to answer that very question.
"'Lights, Camera, Save!' will allow teens to role play and record their thoughts about saving and using money wisely," explained Laura Stinson, Director of Marketing, "It's a way to get kids thinking about money management and its relevance to their lives and future."
The video contest encourages youth to use video to communicate the value of saving and inspire others to become smart money managers.
"The contest is meant to be fun and exciting but when all is said and done, we hope teens will take action and start young to save more,'" Stinson added.
To participate, students ages 13-18 can stop by First Kentucky for an entry form and contest details from Nov. 1 through Nov. 30. First Kentucky will host the first round of judging and will submit one winning video to compete on the national level. Students can win up to $3,000 to fund their savings goal, plus $1,500 for their school.
"Lights, Camera, Save!" is a part of the Teach Children to Save campaign, a national movement of volunteer bankers who guide young people towards lifelong savings habits. Since 1997, the campaign has reached some 5 million young people with the help of more than 100,000 banker volunteers.
Learn more about the contest at www.aba.com/ABAEF/LCS/Pages/default.aspx or at www.firstkentucky.com.

Hi guys,
I have a 2008 Titanium with a bottom of the range stereo fitted.
I would like change my current Sony head unit. It's the base model type so it doesn't do much.
I don't want an after market unit, I want it to look like it belongs to the car so it has to be a ford unit.
I like the sat nav versions but will I have the connectors in the car to plug in to the head unit?
I assume the sat nav needs an aerial of some kind.
Will I just have to remove my Sony and have a look at what's down the back before deciding?
What about the 6 CD version. Do these need a CD changer in the boot?
Hell even the DAB version will be better than the current unit.

John BaslOffice: 383 Holmes Hall
Phone: 617-373-3636
Email: email@example.com
While John's primary research interests are very broad and include issues in ethics, applied ethics, philosophy of biology, philosophy of science, and epistemology, he is most intensely focused on issues of moral status. Who or what matters from the moral point of view? Why? How are we to properly account for all the things that have moral status. In particular, John is interested in how altering individual's cognitive capacities, for example by testing cognitive enhancement technologies on non-human animals, might alter our obligations towards that individual and what kinds of moral problems are raised by the creation of artificial intelligence or consciousness.
John's teaching interests are even more diverse than his research interests. He primarily teaches courses on issues in biomedical ethics, environmental ethics, and the ethics of technology. However, he has also taught and is interested in courses in traditional analytic areas such as metaphysics, epistemology, and philosophy of science and biology.

From staff reports
GLADEVILLE— Wearing jerseys from the 1990s, Lebanon scored all its runs in the fifth inning of a 5-1 win at Wilson Central on Thursday afternoon.
The old jerseys were found stashed away when the school switched campuses and the seniors decided to wear them, though the jersey numbers didn't match the players normal digits.
But the numbers fell Lebanon's way in the fourth inning after Katlin Eakes walked and Sara Aubuchon singled. They scored on back-to-back fielder's choices hit by Shelby Jones and Hannah Simmons in which Central went for the out at the plate but came up empty. Megan Brown's two-run single gave the Lady Devils some breathing room.
Bethany Anderson spotted Central a third-inning run on her 18th birthday in holding the Lady Wildcats to four hits and a walk while striking out seven as Lebanon improved to 19-11 for the season and 7-1 in District 9-AAA.
Lauren Stavinoga singled home Kendall Eden for Central's score. But starter Morgan Powell [7-5] was chased after 3 1/3 innings before Hannah Bodenhorn finished as the Lady Wildcats fell to 18-14, 4-4.
Lebanon will travel to Hendersonville to take on Beech at 4:30 p.m. Monday. Central will play host to Hendersonville at around 6 p.m. Monday for Senior Night.
Lady Commanders climb into first-place tie with Gordonsville via 2-1 win
SOUTH CARTHAGE — Friendship Christian scored twice in the top of the sixth inning to lift Courtney Petty past Cori Jennings and host Gordonsville 2-1 in a meeting of the top two teams in District 8-A Thursday at Crump Paris Park.
Kristian Watkins reached on a Gordonsville error and Petty, who had two of Friendship's three hits, reached on a bunt single. Tana Whited singled in Watkins before Petty scored on an error.
Petty allowed five hits and a walk while striking out six as the Lady Commanders, who lost by two runs at home to Gordonsville earlier this season, climbed to 16-11 for the season and a final 7-1 in the district, tied with the Tigerettes.
Allison West doubled in the Gordonsville fourth and scored on Robin Hoard's single.
Jennings walked one and struck out nine.
Friendship will travel to Manchester for the Coffee County Invitational today and Saturday. The Lady Commanders will face Greenbrier at 5:30 p.m. in their first game and play again at 8:30.
Woodard, Richardson, Payne lead MJ's Senior Day assault
MT. JULIET — Mt. Juliet's seniors played big roles in the Lady Bears' 14-4 Senior NIght win over Gallatin on Thursday.
Senior Lauren Woodard allowed four hits in the six-inning game while suppling a pair of singles and a home run on offense. Senior Morgan Richardson helped get Mt. Juliet off on the right foot with a two-run single in a three-run first inning. Lauren Payne, the third senior, singled twice and scored a pair of runs.
Junior Ashton Stowe was hit by a pitch, walked and hit a solo home run, one of three runs she scored. Junior Emily Bombard doubled home a run in the fourth and junior Kristen Jackson homered in the fifth.
Kelsie Craighead and Kristen Hammer each had a hit as Mt. Juliet moved to 24-12 for the season and 6-4 in District 9-AAA, assuring the Lady Bears a first-round home game in the district tournament next Friday before the event moves the Portland the following Monday.
But first, Mt. Juliet has a visit from Riverdale on tap for a 5 p.m. contest.
Lady Saints suffer 1-hit loss on Senior Day
MT. JULIET — Mt. Juliet Christian was held to one hit by Ezell-Harding in an 18-2 home loss thursday.
Freshman Liz Russ' single represented the only hit for the Lady Saints, who honored third baseman Shelby Leech and catcher Audrey Hess on Senior Day.
Ezell-Harding scored in all five innings and finished with 14 hits off of Caroline Scott, who walked four and struck out two as the Lady Saints slipped to a regular-season final 6-11.
Mt. Juliet Christian will travel to Donelson Christian at 6 p.m. Monday for a Division II District 1-A tournament game.

Bottles With Plastic Recycling Numbers Below "5" Release Cancer-Causing Chemicals
Unknown. Earlier versions of this hoax often specify water bottles (see below), while newer versions sometimes mention bottles for tea or other beverages.
While it's true that many plastics are imprinted with a numeric code, this e-mail's cancer warning misses the mark. Like all materials intended to come in contact with foods or beverages, the plastics that are used to make beverage bottles are subject to federal safety review and regulations. Such materials must meet stringent U.S. Food and Drug Administration safety standards before they can be marketed to consumers.
So, what's in a number? The numeric codes that you see on many plastic items are used to help sort post-consumer plastics for recycling purposes. Different types of plastics are sometimes referred to as "resins" and the numeric symbols are known as "Resin ID Codes." Each number (1 through 6) signifies a specific type of plastic and usually appears inside a small triangle (often formed by three adjoining arrows) imprinted on the bottom of a plastic item. The number "7" is used to represent a group of other plastics or combinations of plastics. Resin ID codes are not intended to provide guidance on the safe or appropriate use of any plastic item and should not be used for this purpose.
Watch out for cell phone spam! In some areas, this hoax is circulating from cell phone to cell phone in the form of a text message. We're not exactly sure what to call this new phenomenon, but we do know this: Lots of cell phone plans charge for text messaging and most of us don't want to pay for a prank. So, if you should happen to receive this tall-tale text, after you've deleted it, consider calling the sender during off-peak hours and letting him or her know that forwarding unconfirmed health scares is a bad idea.
Are you recycling as much as you could be? The number of post-consumer plastic bottles collected in the United States has increased every year since plastic bottle recycling was first calculated in 1990. In 2005, that number jumped to over 2.1 billion pounds of post-consumer plastic bottles, and the overall plastic bottle recycling rate climbed to 24.3 percent. But in addition to charting our continued progress, this number shows that there's still a lot more we can do to recycle plastic bottles. Recycling varies widely, so it's a good idea to find out what plastics are recycled in your community.
Tip: Many municipalities list the types of materials they do and don't accept for recycling on their websites. To get started, go to your favorite search engine and enter the name of your county, city or township and the word "recycling." If your municipality's website doesn't provide this information, you should be able to locate a phone number so you can call and ask.
Note: Recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Check to see if recycling facilities exist in your area.

Visvo search startup05 Nov 2007
There is a new crawler on the block -- the VisBot has been making its rounds. The seemingly legitimate crawler led me to its companies site: Visvo -- and I like what I've found. Why does Visvo matter among this new wave of search start ups? Three reasons: 1) Each search result has an explain link that details the technical details of how that was result was scored 2) They are using open Source Search Technology Nutch, and Hadoop both of the Lucene project 3) They are building their own index instead of using a feed like for example Quintura.
The Dallas based startup explains its name as the Sanskrit word for "universe", and their tag line is: "its our universe". After the customary grandiose and unqualified statements about how advanced they are Visvo claims to have developed the "automatic categorization search engine for web content". While this implementation of this wasn't immediately obvious to me after trying their search engine, I decided I like them as a company for other reasons.
I immediately did my favorite search -- a vanity search on my full name (should be fairly unique). The Visvo engine returned two (and once three) results that were highly relevant: The "Debian as a Desktop System" article I wrote for the Free Software Magazine, and a ping back for a blog entry I wrote about the upcoming FreeBSD installer "finstall" . Here is a screen shot of the results page for my vanity search above (Click on image for full resolution):
Each search result has an "explain" link (see screen shots ) where so-inclined users can view the technical details of how the search result was ranked by the Visvo engine. It shows factors such as the tfidf score of the document, which is probably the most used statistical model for measuring the frequency of a term in a document relative to documents in the rest of the corpus. (Click on screen shot for full resolution)
The fact that they are building their own index is relevant, todays search giants have amassed too much power -- in essence a monopoly on who finds what -- and my hope for the future is that startups like Visvo can challenge the entrenched incumbents. The fact that they also open up their ranking is important, and this level of transparency is something Google could learn from.
The technical presentation by Dennis Kubes, founder and CTO of Visvo (linked at the bottom of the page) gives us some juicy details about their architecture. Visvo is indeed using Hadoop, the open source Map-Reduce implementation, occasionally supplements its dedicated hardware with Amazons EC2 hardware service.
I'm impressed so far. I wish them success, as their success is also the success of the open source community, more so than with Google.
I encourage everyone to give it a go, although the product is still in Alpha, so probably won't be ready for your day to day search needs for a while.

This is the actual recipe inspired by Inglourious Basterds for our series of 2010 Oscar Party Dishes.
You can take the easy way on this one and stop by your local French bakery and pick up a batard loaf, or live adventurously and make your own.
- 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2/3 cup warm water
- a pinch of salt
- 1/8 tsp active dry yeast
- 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 Tbsp salt
- 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
Begin by adding the starter yeast into the warm water slowly. Once it is sufficiently mixed, pour into the flour and salt in a large bowl. Mix, cover, and allow to sit overnight.
Sometime the next day, mix all the dough ingredients in a seperate bowl. Break the starter dough into pieces and mix into the dough mixture. Pound and fold the dough for serveral minutes until it is thoroughly mixed. Place in a greased bowl and allow to rise for 1 hour. Remove dough and fold it a few times, then let rise for 1 hour. Repeat. Remove the dough and roll into a wide rounded oval. Allow to rise for an additional hour. Place a couple of shallow slices across the top of the loaf before putting it into a preheated 450 degree oven. Place a baking dish of water underneath to even some of the baking. Bake for 20 minutes, then rotate the loaf 180 degrees, and bake an additional 20 minutes. Serve with your favorite, German, French, or Russian cheeses.

Today he has asked anyone and everyone who is willing to participate in his online community of creatives. "Hit RECord on TV" is aiming to be a new kind of TV show, where viewers determine the content. Hosted by Levitt and his brother, they provide a platform to contribute and collaborate with anyone in the world who's on the internet.

|Tidal volume delivery from ICU ventilators in BTPS condition. A bench study.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23232735 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|BACKGROUND. We measured tidal volume (VT) delivered from ICU ventilators after adding an external filter to the expiratory limb of the breathing circuit. This latter may protect the expiratory valve from water saturation in case of nebulisation and the environnement in case of lung infection with multi-drug-resistant micro-organisms or H1N1 influenza, even though it is not a common practice. METHODS. Six ICU ventilators, two with built-in expiratory filter (Avea, PB 840) and 4 without (Engström, Evita XL, Evita V500, Servo-i) set in volume controlled mode, BTPS condition with a heated humidifier on, were connected to a lung model (compliance 16 ml.cmH(2)O(-1) and resistance 20 cm H(2)O.L(-1).s) placed inside a neonatal incubator. The temperature was targeted at 37°C for both heated humidifier and incubator. The set-up was run continuously for 24 hours. In the four last ICU ventilators, Hygrobac or Sterivent S external filter was placed upstream the expiratory valve for an additional 24-hour period for each. At the end of this period, VT was measured at four nominal VTs (300, 400, 500 and 800 ml) by using Fleish 4 pneumotachograph. The volume error computed from the ratio of set to measured VT (% set VT) was the primary end-point. RESULTS. In present warm and wet conditions, volume error averaged 96±3% for Avea, 100±7% for PB 840, 90±2% for Evita XL, 100±7% for Evita V500, 105±2% for Servo-i, and 108±4% for Engström (P<.0001). With Hygrobac, the values were 93±1% for Evita XL, 94±4% for Evita V500, 110±4% for Servo-i, and 99±2% for Engström, (P<.0001). With Sterivent, the corresponding values were 95±2%, 105±2%, 112±5%, and 98±2%, respectively (P<.0001). CONCLUSIONS. In BTPS condition, volume error differed substantially across ICU ventilators for VT delivery with further significant changes occurring after adjunction of filter at the distal expiratory limb.

Q: What is the volume associated with this product?
A: Retail purchase: $55(QV 55, CV 49) ADO order: $40 (QV 40, CV 36)
Q: How does this affect Product Prospecting System (PPS)?
A: NeriumAD Age-Defying Treatment is still our lead product with the most concentrated amount of our patented NAE-8 antioxidant extract. You should continue to implement the PPS with Nerium's night cream.
Q: Are there samples of NeriumAD Age-Defying Day Cream?
A: No, we do not currently offer samples of NeriumAD Age-Defying Day Cream.
Q: How does this product affect the 3UR Free and Nerium Gives Back programs?
A: These programs were designed specifically around our lead product, NeriumAD Age-Defying Treatment. As such, the day cream does not qualify for 3UR Free or Nerium Gives Back. Therefore, the addition of the day cream will not impact these programs in any way.
Q: Why is there no SPF in NeriumAD Age-Defying Day Cream?
A: Nerium's mission continues to focus on science-based products that are effective and compatible with the largest section of people (all ages, demographics, and skin types). All of these factors affect how much sun protection you need. Therefore, to make one product that would work for everyone; we decided to not include SPF. Also, in following leading research, we believe that for full protection from the sun it is in our users' best interest to use a dedicated sunscreen, which provides the most thorough sun protection.

Eating slow will make you feel more staisfied! Don't watch TV, talk on the phone or stand. These all cause mindless eating. Eating quality carbs increases your metabolism, such as grains, veggies,and fruits. Lunch & dinner should include water-releasing salads, asparagus, brocolli, tomatoes, spinach, cucumber.
eatring more times a day but smaller portions increases metabolism while reducing hunger
Alternating caloric intake each week will help fool your body and increase your metabolism. Eating at the high end boosts your metabolism to burn more calories, then when you lower your calories but continue your exercise intensity, your metabolism is still up from the higher calories week.
Symptoms of high blood sugar are increased hunger, dry mouth, increased thirst, increased urination,blurred vision, sweating ,drowsiness and fatigue.

Good afternoon!
Please forgive me if my English isn't that good, once it isn't my mother tongue.
First of all, I'd like to say that the kind of work being done here is simply amazing and it makes a difference in people's lives. Well, Wray, please help me...I have had a spontaneous miscarriage and I think it was due to my low progesterone levels. I took progesterone during my luteal phase and stopped on day 27 of my cycle to wait for menstruation. I started taking progesterone again as soon as I found out pregnancy, but it didn't work. The embryo didn't develop. After not taking progesterone for 5 days I re-started it but I think it was too late. My doctor told me that wasn't the reason why I had a miscarriage because she believed there would be some "residual progesterone" left that would have been able to support the very beginning of the embryo development during this "pause". Now, I'm trying to get pregnant again and I'm taking Utrogestan - 200 mg once a day. My doctor told me I should keep on using the same dose and allowed me to use it until I was sure about being pregnant or not. She also told me to keep on taking the same dose (200 mg)after I get pregnant. Well, I had been taking it orally, but I've read it isn't the best way for the progesterone to be absorbed. My current progesterone level (with the 200 mg dose I've been taking) is 6 ng/ml (or 20 nmol/l). I think it is too low and asked my doctor to double the dose if I get pregnant (400 mg a day), but she said I shouldn't do that because she believes it could cause female formations to a male fetus-baby. What should I do? Shoud I take 200 mg or 400 mg? Is there any possible harm to the baby if I increase the dose? Thank you so much for reading everything!

The European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) launched today a consultation on draft Regulatory Technical Standards ('RTS') outlining the framework of the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR). These RTS cover the risk management procedures for counterparties in non-centrally cleared OTC derivatives, the criteria concerning intragroup exemptions and the definitions of practical and legal impediments. The consultation will allow gathering public views on how to ensure a proportionate implementation of the requirements, as well as any other specific aspects that need discussion. The consultation runs until 14 July 2014.
For those over-the-counter (OTC) derivative transactions that will not be subject to central clearing, these draft RTS prescribe that counterparties apply robust risk mitigation techniques to their bilateral relationships, which will include mandatory exchange of initial and variation margins. This will reduce counterparty credit risk, mitigate any potential systemic risk and ensure alignment with international standards. These draft RTS elaborate on the risk-management procedures for the exchange of collateral and on the procedures concerning intragroup exemptions including the criteria that identify practical and legal impediments to the prompt transfer of funds.
Comments to this consultation can be sent through EBA's website by clicking on the "send your comments" button on the consultation page. Please note that the deadline for the submission of comments is 14 July 2014.
The ESAs will hold a public hearing on the draft RTSs, which will take place at the EBA premises in London on 2 June 2014.


text: The Feline Humanoid wiki last edited by watar on 08/22/15 02:38PM View full history OverviewHumanoid cats largely have their roots in Japanese folklore, as the "bananeko", or demon cats. Later Japanese anime and manga depicted a more innocent version of female feline humanoids, usually referred to as "catgirls" and they have since become somewhat of a symbol of Japanese culture. The large majority of feline humanoids are female and both Japan and some western cultures see women with cat-like features or behaviour (either in the form of costumes or as part of them physically) as cute and/or sexually attractive.Most feline humanoids appear entirely human apart from cat ears and tails, this way keeping them more human and therefore more sexually appealing, however some feline humanoids have fur or even cat-like faces. It is also not uncommon for feline humanoids to display cat-like body language, cat-like grooming habits, make noises similar to cats, or display a cat-like playfulness and innocence.Examples of Feline HumanoidsOne particularly notable feline humanoid from video games is Felicia from the fighting game series Darkstalkers, a catgirl who was raised by a nun and left her home town to pursue her dream of becoming a musical star. In the fighting game series Blazblue, a clan of cat people called the Kaka exist who were cloned from the DNA of the catgirl Jubei, this clan includes major character Taokaka. The later Sonic the Hedgehog games feature a character called Big the Cat who is a large, rather unintelligent purple cat who lives in a swamp with his pet frog Froggy. One rare western example of cat people in a video game are the Khajiit from the Elder Scrolls universe, an intelligent and acrobatic race from the province of Elsweyr.

Deal Reached on U.N. Resolution for Syria Disarmament
The five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council have agreed on the language of a resolution that would eliminate Syria's chemical weapons. The deal breaks a lengthy diplomatic stalemate and potentially averts a U.S. military strike backed by President Obama. The council could vote on the measure today. The deal comes just weeks after an apparently offhand remark by Secretary of State John Kerry about how Syria could avoid a military strike by quickly surrendering its chemical stockpiles. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said it establishes a "new international norm."
Samantha Power: "This resolution will require the destruction of a category of weapons that the Syrian government has used ruthlessly and repeatedly against its own people. And this resolution will make clear that there are going to be consequences for noncompliance. This is very significant. This is the first time since the Syrian conflict began two-and-a-half years ago that the Security Council has imposed binding obligations on Syria, binding obligations of any kind."
According to The Washington Post, a confidential assessment by U.S. and Russian officials has found Syria's entire arsenal could be destroyed in roughly nine months, with most of its stores consisting of "unweaponized" precursors.
U.S., Iran Voice Optimism After Rare Meeting
The United States and Iran have held their highest-level official diplomatic meeting in decades to discuss Iran's disputed nuclear program. Secretary of State John Kerry and his Iranian counterpart joined diplomats from several other countries on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly. EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said the group agreed to meet again in Geneva next month. John Kerry called the meeting "constructive" and said he and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif also held their own meeting on the side.
John Kerry: "We've agreed to try to continue a process that we'll try to make concrete and find a way to answer the questions that people have about Iran's nuclear program. Needless to say, one meeting and a change in tone, which was welcome, doesn't answer those questions yet, and there's a lot of work to be done."
Iranian President Calls for End to Nuclear Weapons Worldwide
Earlier in the day, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani called for the elimination of all nuclear weapons during a nuclear disarmament meeting at the United Nations. He invoked the U.S. nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and said there are no "right hands" for nuclear weapons to be in.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani: "Almost four decades of international effort to establish a nuclear-weapons-free zone in the Middle East has regrettably failed. Urgent practical steps toward the establishment of such a zone are necessary. Israel, the only non-party to the Non-Proliferation Treaty in this region, should join there, too, without any further delay."
Haitian Prime Minister: U.N. Has "Moral Responsibility" to Address Cholera Epidemic
During his speech before the U.N. General Assembly, Haitian Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe called on the United Nations to take responsibility for the cholera outbreak that has killed more than 8,000 Haitians and sickened more than 600,000. The disease strain has been traced to U.N. peacekeepers from Nepal who deployed after Haiti's devastating 2010 earthquake, but the United Nations has refused to pay hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation sought by victims and family members. Outside the United Nations, dozens of people gathered to condemn the U.N. role.
Jimy Mertune, protester: "With the cholera in Haiti, where the issue was already a poor country, it became worse because we didn't have the infrastructure. And it's crazy that the water that we consider as life has become something that we fear to drink because we don't have clean water. So, the effect — the implications are even more, more than what we even put in the media, because certain things we cannot record. It's definitely a crisis in this country where 6 percent of this nation is being affected by this epidemic."
IPCC: Scientists Now 95% Certain Climate Change Caused by Humans
The world's top climate scientists have unveiled their strongest warning to date about the disastrous consequences of human-caused climate change if drastic efforts are not adopted to slash greenhouse gas emissions. For the first time, the International Panel on Climate Change formally endorsed a limit on emissions, saying no more than one trillion tons of carbon can be burned if humanity hopes to avoid a global temperature increase of more than 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Already, more than half that amount has been emitted since the Industrial Revolution, and the world is on pace to burn its trillionth ton of carbon in less than three decades. The IPCC expressed even more certainty than ever before that humans are responsible for global warming, saying there is a 95 to 100 percent chance most warming in recent decades has been caused by humans.
Audit: FBI Has Used Drones Inside U.S. Since 2006
A federal audit has revealed the FBI has been operating drones inside the United States since 2006 at a cost of more than $3 million. In total, the Justice Department has spent nearly $5 million on drones, according to the report, which was issued by the agency's inspector general. That includes funds to several local police departments, which auditors said the department has failed to track. The report urged officials to develop new guidelines to protect privacy, saying drones raise "unique concerns about privacy." Drones currently operate under the same rules as manned surveillance planes.
Republicans Continue Bid to Advance Agenda Through Budget Battle
The Senate is set to approve a funding bill that would avoid a government shutdown on Tuesday after eliminating a House-approved provision to defund the Affordable Care Act. But during a press conference Thursday, House Speaker John Boehner signaled House Republicans will continue their bid to use the budget battle to advance their agenda and slash government spending.
Reporter: "Speaker Boehner, in light of bringing this debt limit bill to the floor, will you now accept a clean CR from the Senate to avoid a government shutdown?"
John Boehner: "I don't — I do not see that happening."
House Republicans also set the stage for another battle over a looming deadline to increase the debt ceiling, laying out possible conditions for raising the limit, including a one-year delay of the healthcare law, a rollback of financial and environmental regulations, and construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline.
NSA Chief: All Phone Records Should Be in Searchable "Lockbox"
Top U.S. intelligence officials appeared before the Senate Intelligence Committee Thursday to defend the National Security Agency's sweeping collection of domestic phone logs. The NSA's director, General Keith Alexander, dodged questions from Democratic Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon about whether the NSA had used cellphone signals to collect data on the location of U.S. citizens. General Alexander also faced questions from Democratic Senator Mark Udall of Colorado.
Sen. Mark Udall: "Is it the goal of the NSA to collect the phone records of all Americans? You talk about building a haystack."
Gen. Keith Alexander: "Yeah, yeah."
Sen. Udall: "Do you want the haystack to be the ultimate size?"
Gen. Alexander: "I believe it is in the nation's best interest to put all the phone records into a lockbox, that we could search when the nation needs to do it, yes."
Sen. Udall: "So we would collect all those records."
Gen. Alexander: "And the reason — and the way we do it and the way we comply would ensure better security for this nation."
Senators Udall and Wyden are backing a bill that would ban the NSA's massive collection of phone records. Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, and Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia are drafting a rival bill that would preserve the NSA program.
Court Upholds 50-Year Prison Term for Charles Taylor
An international appeals court has upheld a 50-year prison sentence for former Liberian President Charles Taylor for war crimes during the civil war in Sierra Leone. Taylor was found guilty last year of overseeing crimes including murder, rape, sexual slavery and drafting child soldiers. He was the first African head of state to be found guilty in an international court and the first head of state convicted since World War II. U.S. officials have previously confirmed Taylor worked for the CIA and other U.S. intelligence agencies during his emergence as a warlord in the 1980s.
African-American Woman Sentenced to 20 Years for Warning Shot Gets New Trial
In Florida, an African-American mother of three who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for firing a warning shot at a wall near her abusive husband will get a new trial. Marissa Alexander's sentence drew claims of racial bias and comparisons to George Zimmerman's acquittal for killing African-American teenager Trayvon Martin. A Florida appeals court ordered a new trial, saying the jury for her case had received faulty instructions. But the court upheld an earlier judge's ruling blocking Alexander from using the state's "Stand Your Ground" law in her defense.
George Zimmerman's Wife Expresses Doubt About His Innocence in Travyon Martin Case
George Zimmerman's estranged wife, Shellie, is expressing doubts about claims Zimmerman acted in self-defense when he killed Trayvon Martin. Shellie Zimmerman has filed for divorce and recently called 911 to report George Zimmerman had threatened her and assaulted her father. She was interviewed by NBC's Matt Lauer.
Matt Lauer: "So you now doubt his innocence, at least the fact that he was acting in self-defense on the night that Trayvon Martin was killed?"
Shellie Zimmerman: "I think anyone would doubt that innocence, because I don't know the person that I've been married to."
Montana Teacher Convicted of Rape Released After 30-Day Prison Term
A former Montana high school teacher convicted of raping a 14-year-old student who later committed suicide has been released from prison after completing his 30-day term. Stacey Rambold's month-long sentence sparked a national outcry, particularly after Judge Todd Baugh claimed Rambold's 14-year-old victim was "older than her chronological age" and "as much in control of the situation" as her perpetrator. Judge Baugh later apologized for his remarks, admitting they were "demeaning of all women." Montana prosecutors are appealing Rambold's sentence, saying he should have received a minimum of two years under state law. For now, Rambold will remain free.
Wendy Davis to Run for Governor of Texas
The Texas lawmaker who mesmerized the country when she rose to her feet for a nearly 11-hour filibuster against an anti-choice bill will run for governor of Texas. Democratic State Senator Wendy Davis is due to make the announcement next week, but Democrats have confirmed her candidacy to media outlets.
Barilla Pasta President Criticized for Remarks on LGBT Families
LGBT groups are calling for a boycott of Barilla pasta after its president told an Italian radio program he would not portray non-straight couples in the company's ads because they diverged from his idea of the "classic family." Guido Barilla suggested LGBT people who do not like the ads or the pasta could try another brand. He has since apologized for his remarks.
Report: Construction for Qatar World Cup Will Kill 4,000 Migrant Workers
A new Guardian report details the life-threatening conditions faced by migrant laborers in Qatar as the country prepares to host the World Cup in 2022. This summer, Nepalese workers reportedly died at a rate of one per day in Qatar. Many were young men who had sudden heart attacks. Workers in Qatar fall ill from squalid living conditions and are denied wages and access to drinking water by employers who routinely confiscate their passports. The Guardian found evidence of forced labor at a World Cup-related construction project which is being managed by a California-based firm. According to the International Trade Union Congress, construction for the World Cup will leave an estimated 4,000 migrant workers dead. Qatar has the world's highest proportion of migrant workers with 90 percent of the workforce coming from outside of the country.
Activist Stages Force-Feeding in Solidarity with California Prisoners
An activist on hunger strike in solidarity with prisoners at Guantánamo Bay and in the California prison system has staged a second public force-feeding. Andrés Thomas Conteris was fed through a nasal tube in front of the Oakland headquarters of the California Department of Corrections while surrounded by supporters. Conteris has been on hunger strike for more than 80 days and has lost nearly 60 pounds. He staged an earlier force-feeding outside the White House earlier this month.
Free Speech Radio News Airs Final Broadcast
The independent, daily half-hour news program Free Speech Radio News is airing its last edition today due to funding shortfalls. According to its website, FSRN is looking into the possibility of restructuring its organization in the future.
Angola 3 Prisoner Given Days to Live
Former Black Panther Herman Wallace, held in solitary confinement for more than 40 years in Louisiana, now reportedly has just days to live. Supporters say his terminal liver cancer has taken a turn for the worse, and his request for compassionate release has so far gone unanswered by Governor Bobby Jindal. Wallace and two others, known as the Angola Three, were placed in solitary in 1972 following their conviction for murdering a prison guard. They say they were framed because of their political activism. Wallace is 71. In other Angola Three news, another member of the group who remains in prison, Albert Woodfox, says he has been subjected to strip searches and anal cavity searches as often as six times a day — even though his wrists and ankles are shackled together when he is outside of his cell. Woodfox is 68 years old. The searches had been declared unlawful in the 1970s by Louisiana District Court Judge Daniel LeBlanc. Guards reportedly resumed the searches almost immediately after LeBlanc died in May. Woodfox's legal team requested a restraining order to put a hold on the invasive searches, but a hearing on the motion has been delayed. We'll have more on the Angola Three next week when we broadcast live from New Orleans on Monday and Tuesday.

By Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan
On the night of Oct. 20, 2014, Laquan McDonald, a 17-year-old African-American teenager in Chicago, was walking down the street when two police cruisers sped up to him. Officers jumped out, and at least one of them, Jason Van Dyke, began firing. Laquan fell to the ground, his final, painful moments caught on the dashboard video camera of a third police vehicle that had arrived just seconds before. Laquan spun as he was shot. Two bullets hit him in the back. As the video clearly shows, the bullets were pumped into him, evidenced by clouds of dust exploding off the pavement. This week, on the day the video was released to the public by court order, Officer Van Dyke was charged with first-degree murder — 400 days after he killed Laquan McDonald.
