6 killed as Canada passenger train, bus collide
OTTAWA, Ontario — A double-decker bus collided with a passenger train in Canada's capital Wednesday, ripping off the front of the bus and killing six people, police said. Witnesses said the bus went through a closed crossing barrier, and passengers said they screamed "Stop, stop!" at the driver just before impact.
Officials said 30 people were injured, 10 critically, at the peak of Ottawa's morning rush hour. The cause of the crash was not yet clear, said John Manconi with bus operator OC Transpo. Transit union president Craig Watson said the driver was killed.
It was Canada's second major rail accident this year. It comes after an oil train derailed and exploded in a Quebec town in July, killing 47 people.
Tanner Trepanier, who was on the bus, said passengers could see the train bearing down on them as they approached the crossing.
"People started screaming, 'Stop, stop!' because they could see the train coming down the track," Trepanier said.
Witnesses said the bus plowed through a lowered crossing barrier and into the side of the passing, four-car train. The locomotive and one passenger car derailed. Via Rail said there were no reports of major injuries to train passengers or crew. Via Rail canceled trains on its Ottawa-Toronto route.
Passenger Gregory Mech said the bus was approaching a train crossing where there is about a 90-degree bend. Mech said he didn't think the driver noticed that signals were flashing and that the barrier was down.
"The bus actually hit the train dead on," Mech told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. "I could see that there were bodies on the train tracks. It was horrible."
Rebbecca Guilbeault, who was on the bus with her 1-year-old son, said she had put him in a stroller just before the crash and said people piled on top of him.
"I don't know if the bus driver blacked out. He didn't slow down, and it just impacted with the train," Guilbeault said. "I've seen a few people dead, someone ripped in half."
Witness Mark Cogan said the rail barrier was down.
"The train is going through," Cogan said. "And I was just looking around, just watching things happen. And noticed that in the bus lane, the double-decker bus ... I saw him, and he just kept going.
"I just thought maybe there's a side way around or something, but instantly, he just ... he smoked the train. He went through the guard rail and just hammered the train, and then it was just mayhem."
The train tracks, just outside a suburban train station, Fallowfield, cross a major city street and a transit line reserved for buses.
The national Transportation Safety Board's lead investigator, Glen Pilon, said Via Rail crossings have been a concern. Pilon said getting the black box recording is a priority to determine what went wrong before the crash.
Canada has seen 257 accidents involving passenger trains colliding with vehicles at level crossings over the last decade, the safety board said Wednesday.
"It is a tragic morning in the nation's capital, as a devastating accident between a bus and train has caused injury and death," Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in a statement.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ First-quarter profits at Collective Brands Inc. surged 93 percent, helped by litigation and accounting expenses recorded during the year-ago quarter.
The earnings results beat Wall Street expectations, although sales declined. They were hurt by lower consumer spending, foreign currency fluctuations and
the end of the company's relationship with designer Tommy Hilfiger for adult footwear.

When Kentucky American Water Company asked for a rate increase last year customers saw their bills increase roughly nine dollars, but then word they were charging too much and that meant a refund.
Good Question: Diane,Lexington-Several weeks ago there was a mention of a refund check from Kentucky American Water, when can customers expect to get those checks?
A $164 million water treatment plant and pipeline built to combat a water supply shortfall set off a rate increase for Kentucky American Water customers.
Last year Kentucky American asked for a rate increase from the Public Service Commission of 38%, by law the company could start charging extra even before the rate was approved.
"They were unable to reach a decision by the end of period of time by which usually an order would be received," said Susan Lancho a KAW spokesperson.
Three months later the PSC said no go and only allowed a 29% increase.
By the time the request was denied customers had already been shelling out more for their H2O, but Kentucky American Water promised a refund plus interest.
By now you should start seeing that refund show up on your bill in the form of a credit no a check.
When you receive your bill look for something that reads " ADJ of 9-29-10 to 12-13-10"
Customers can expect about a $6 credit.
Kentucky American says anyone that is no longer a customer, but was during the rate increase should expect their refund in the form of a check.

NIKE Memorial Day Classic top underclassmen
Jerry Meyer
Rivals.com Basketball Recruiting
None of the underclassmen stood out more than Xavier Henry, who was the top performer regardless of class at the event.
Here is a look at Henry and four other prospects who join him on the top underclassmen list.
His "off" game was a 16-point effort. When he was on, he was simply unguardable. At 6 feet 6, 210-pounds, Henry has the length to shoot over defenders, the strength to post them up and the athleticism to create his shot in most situations.
Along with his scoring prowess, Henry also can handle the ball like a point guard and rebound like a power forward. Over the past year, he has taken huge strides in becoming a complete player. If he continues his natural development as a player, he could be a star at the highest level.
With a feel for the game well beyond his years, Marshall was never rattled by the defensive pressure that opponents threw at him. The smooth left-hander handled the ball with strength, consistently got into the lane and also knocked down open 3-pointers.
Whether Marshall will remain an elite point guard in his class remains to be seen. He does need to improve on the defensive side of the ball. But at this stage of the game, you would be hard-pressed to find a better freshman point guard in the country.
Hardrick has a nose for the ball and a great understanding of positioning. His hands are sure when he does get to the ball, and his quick release on post shots beats longer and better athletes to the punch. A focused competitor, Hardrick also produces off hustle plays. He often beats his man down the court.
Simply put, every team needs a player like Hardrick to be successful. Oklahoma is quite fortunate to have Hardrick as a commitment.
Physical and with a hard edge to his game, Scott is developing into an excellent wing defender. In a previous tournament, he did a nice job defending Demar Derozan. In the NIKE Memorial Day Classic, he fared quite well against another elite wing in Henry.
Scott doesn't just defend and rebound. He attacks the rim extremely well off the dribble and can finish tough shots with either hand around the basket. He is keeping defenses honest by knocking down open 3-pointers.
For starters, McDonald has an effortless, high-arcing and soft shot that is continuously becoming more accurate. Besides being a shooting threat, McDonald is adept at snatching rebounds out of a crowd against bigger players. On the defensive side of the ball, he can lock down either guard position.
He still has room to become more aggressive off the dribble. However, there is no doubt that with his mind for the game and his natural physical tools, McDonald's development as a player is far from complete.

New World of Coca-Cola
The New World of Coca-Cola stands across the lawn from the aquarium, so try to take in both on the same day. You view a short movie to start, and then walk through exhibit spaces featuring the history and making of Coke, its impact on pop culture, and finally the tasting room and store. This is probably more fun for adults as you see lots of old ads, merchandise, and memorabilia.
The tasting room is the hit of any visit. Here, you can sample Coca-Cola products from all over the world. Some are―well, interesting.
Visit Tips:
- Get your free commemorative bottle of Coke when you walk out of the tasting room into the store.
- Teens will love to have their pictures taken on the Coca-Cola sofa from the American Idol TV show.

If PS users break down into three main categories, as I think they generally do:1 - Large corporations and multi license users, with constant upgrades to the latest versions across all platforms. Substantially the largest group size.2 - Home/small business and amateur photographers with single user licenses, with upgrades when they can afford it. Unknown group size.3 - Pirated/hacked illegal users of PS with no intention of ever buying a license, yet with almost immediate access to the latest versions across all platforms. Anyone who cares to Google to find the URL of a torrent/download website.If Adobe has now changed its PS delivery and licensing method to cater more for the requirements of group 1, as this is the targeted market PS was always supposed to be aimed at, but in so doing was fully aware it would alienate a large proportion of group 2, which way does Adobe think group 2 will now migrate towards the next time they want to upgrade, group 1 or group 3?
What if the subscription software reverted to CS6 functionality when the subscription expires? That would take care of the proprietary Adobe file obsolescence problem as computer hardware and operating systems change.
What happens when computer operating systems evolve such that CS6 becomes unusable legacy software? I already have software I use, which the developers will not update, that is compatible with Mac OSX 10.6.8 but not 10.7+. The provision for long-term access to our files needs to be more forward-looking than CS6.
Of course that's an Apple OS problem and not one for us Windows users!
Cummon Alan - I used to use Windows also ya know. I have applications that are XP-compliant , not 7 or 8 compliant and the vendor won't upgrade them. I need to maintain an old Toshiba laptop to access them. Ugh. :-)
Gulag, what's the link for the MS VM?
Downloaded and installed it a few years back when I upgraded to W7. Here is a link that can work:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7
Alan and Mark, that's a great idea! Let's add a Mac/Windows discussion to this thread! Can't get any hotter ;-)
Very interesting: now here is one for you (and sorry if a bit OT - but a good opportunity). I have Windows 7 Professional already running as a VM under Parallels 8 in Mac OSX 10.6.8. So, any idea whether I could run Windows XP mode as a VM within the Windows 7 VM under Parallels on a Mac? :-) Whew.

Microsoft has been betting big on its Surface RT tablet, a device I wanted to like. But it's not going well.
IDC estimates that Microsoft sold about 900,000 units in the fourth quarter of last year. Yet, from January to March, the company sold only 200,000. Meanwhile, IDC estimates that Apple sold a whopping 19.5 million iPads in the same Q1 period.
In late May, PC management company called Soluto released a report revealing part of the problem: Windows 8. According to a study of about 11,000 users that analyzed well over 300,000 installed apps, only 44 percent of Windows 8 tablet users run a touch app once per day.
What all of this means: Windows tablet sales are slow and usage is subpar. In its current form anyway, this isn't a workhorse device for business.
The Problems
The touch app interface, called Metro, is the heart and soul of Windows RT. The tablet does not even run standard desktop apps. And, as I reported in Inc. magazine last year, while you can run the bundled Office apps, they are not licensed for business use. Oops. (Microsoft recently announced it will update Windows 8 to include Outlook, an app that wasn't previously available on the tablets.)
Also, Microsoft is facing a classic market share conundrum. App makers--plenty of whom are start-ups--tend to hedge their bets by choosing the big players like Samsung and Apple. Smart entrepreneurs follow the money trail.
Increasingly, I am seeing new innovative apps designed only for iOS. For every few dozen new iOS and Android apps I come across in my reporting, I hear next to nothing about Windows touch apps. And while the Windows Store boasts some 80,000 apps, you won't find basic crowdpleasers like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
The Verdict
So, is it time for Microsoft to stop betting on the Surface RT? Yes--but I will stop short of suggesting the company should kill the entire Surface line. The great advantage to using a Windows tablet is that I can run desktop apps like Adobe Photoshop, QuickBooks, and Vegas Pro (a video editor). Hopefully, if Microsoft does make a follow-up (presumably called the Surface Plus), it will run the Windows 8.1 OS and provide a way to run touch apps easily.
Meanwhile, the iPad is not quite ready for real productivity work like typing up rich documents, editing them, adding graphics, and collaborating with colleagues. It's getting close, especially if you use Google Docs. The Surface Pro and several other Windows 8 tablet models do provide a good compromise for business users. You put up with the awkward Metro interface in exchange for being able to run apps that use a mouse as the controller.
At the same time, Microsoft knows the future of computing is touch-enabled apps. When I first tested the Surface RT several months ago, it did seem promising. It's speedy and cannot get infected with the same desktop viruses of other Windows 8 devices.
In the end, there may be a place for a Microsoft tablet running an ARM processor someday. But, it's not right now.

Why not start the Tuesdailies a little earlier than normal - from the other side of the pond?
I did my 14 last evening with 1300' of climb included, on a beautiful, warm evening. Track tonight for intervals.
Dr Bart - real men do wear pink over here. Our local half-marathon in March distributed salmon pink tech tees to all runners - they look pretty good, too.
Maureen - well done on your 5k time
Anon - Karen - welcome and good luck with your autumn marathon
Smoke - I enjoyed the abusive contribution - spiced things up
Spider - well done on your 10k and your other exploits are as interesting as anything related to running!
QOTD - how has your running or racing been influenced by anything you have read on this forum?
I will start by saying that the comments on the forum about the first 5 (downhill) miles at Boston led me to throttle back on that section, which was probably a good thing. And, though it is too early to predict what benefit it will have, I have bought and plan to follow Pfitz....
Have a great day everyone...
Good morning!
Almost time to head to the house for some zzzzsss. Will probably go for another EPMC run in the afternoon hours. Hope you all have a great day!
QOTD: I too read about the downhill miles from the start in Boston. I'm thankful it didn't sink in and I bonked at 22 miles. Otherwise Who knows where I may have been when tragedy struck. I also am considering the Pfitz plan for the next cycle. I could go on all morning with the amount of knowledge I've siphoned from these forums.
Thanks for that =)

Good morning. Up early for MRI at 7:30. Will hopefully get a run in later today. Ended up taking a RD yesterday, as I figured running, even slowly, might invite injury. Will get a run in today.
BB - good morning, thanks for the start. You are probably well into your day at this point. I think you will enjoy Pfitz. Obviously I don't know you, but I really liked the book and will pick it up from time to time just to re-read.
Itza - congrats on the marathon. It sounds really tough so that time is great. Very smart of you to go easy.
Anonymous - Welcome!
Smoke - does the beer go flat? And does it get dilute with the ice in there?
QOTD - This forum definitely got me interested in Pfitz, which I think is helpful, overall for my running. I think on a daily basis, this forum gives me the motivation to get out there and train, and get faster.
Have a great day everyone.
G'morning gang!
Made a successful escape last night and so happy to be back in my own bed. It was an uneventful weekend which is good. As suspected, tsa got silly about the glass-like race trophy. It triggered a bag search. They pulled it out and swabbed it and re-xrayed it. After the 3 agents convened to discuss the 'suspicious object', it was returned. I thought they would keep it. It did have a very slight point on the top that could be a weapon (...if I was going to kill an ant). Seriously, where is common sense? I could make a better weapon out of a high-heeled shoe.
Planning to do easy 5-6 mi followed by the dreaded core workout with the Korean gal. My abs are quivering already!
Spider - Jerry didn't come knocking this time but one of the SILs can provide material for an entire viewing season after her debacle with her marriage that lasted only 9 days. She says she hates the guy, but obsessively stalks him. Its nuts.
Smoke - Im the last person that would figure out a movie quote. I must be strange because I don't particularly like watching movies and haven't seen one in the last decade. I cant sit still that long. I was totally clueless as to what you were referring to and must admit that I was wondering what got your panties in a wad. Thought you needed an IPA or two.
Anon - welcome!
Itza - congrats on a great race! What did you do to celebrate?
uh oh, time to go. headed downtown and need more time for traffic.
Hi CVB - they did offer to pay for dry cleaning, but I feel embarrassed to actually send them a bill. I would have preferred they comp'd my meal or gave me some free drinks. It would have been easier.
Good morning,
I have six for after work. Looks like weather is getting a bit cooler for Sunday with 42 at the start and 55 or so at the end. Probably still too warm to wear my Boston long sleeve. There is a chance for rain, so we'll see.
bb--Did I read earlier that you were in Ireland? I have tried to get a transfer to the UK and still have one job pending, but also looked into Ireland. However, I don't think I could leave the dog in quarrantine for six months.
Itza-After 19 years, I don't miss shift work
cvb--hope the MRI goes well
Bart--Most of the movies I watch are older. Many of the newer ones, I can watch and a year or so later can't even tell you the plot. DW seems to remember every actor that appears in them.
Good Morning Everyone.
No time for me to post yesterday. I hope you had a nice start to your week. I ran 24 miles at the park where the 24 run is being held later this month. I think the people who work at the park are beginning to think I must be a crazy woman by now. Today, up early and ran 10 on the mill. I have a crazy fragmented day. The girls have an orthodonist appointment, flute lessons, track meet and I am working a few hours today. Will try to get in 5 more miles later on today.
Burglar: thank you for the start. I also hold back the first 5 miles at Boston. Afterall, the race really starts at the hills anyway.
Itza: enjoy your return home and miles later on.
Canadian: good luck on your MRI and am praying for good news. Will be thinking of you today.
Landrunner: coffee is poured and a bit strong today, which is probably a good thing.
Have a super day.
"Impossible is Nothing"
Dr.Bart: glad you made the escape. Have fun with your friend later.
Marco: it is cooler here too. Rain today as well. I like the older movies too!
Hi gang. Taking a rest day today. I'm preparing for a trip tonight and want to be completely rested for the drive, so it was a worth-while rest. I ran on yesterday's RD anyway, so I'm good. Hope the conference in South Atlanta doesn't pinch out my running.
For the QOTD - WOW, great question Burglar. I've had a lot of changes from this forum. Too many to mention. But it has helped me get into heart rate running and racing (big thanks to GregT for help), and helped me slow down when the scheduled run is a slower run. Those were HUGE for me.
DrBart - I thought of you because of my trip to Atlanta tonight, but knowing where this is (near the airport) I know you're about an hour away (or more depending on traffic). Wish I could see you and Sina. Wow... the SIL episode sounds like a classic in the making.
Burglar - Thanks for the start. Sounds like a great 14! Awesome climb. I miss the huge hill I had in TN. Glad you're on Pfitz... it's a great program.
Itza - Hope the EPMC is just that.
CVB - Hope your MRI reveals good. As you feel like it, update us.
Marco - Enjoy the sushi
Lap'd - awesome re the 24. 10 on the mill... longer than I've done on the TM.

OTHER:markrice.com/freaks, markrice.com/qotd markrice.com/running/
Morning, fellow freaks! Taper time starts with SRD today. I probably would have taken today off even if Pfitz hadn't specified it. The legs just didn't have it yesterday. We'll see if they feel any better when I do a few 600s tomorrow. Today also marks back to work. Bleah. The good news is we're finally getting some reinforcements at work, and that I only have to work 11 days in May. The bad news is, only working 11 days means money will be a little tight.
I'm getting tired of typing massage therapist, so henceforth she will be MT here. MT is in nursing school along with walking on people's backs, and she had her big final exam yesterday, about which she had been in major stress mode. However, she passed with flying colors. Tried to get her to go out to celebrate last night, but she's leaving on vacation Thursday (including four half-marathons) and said she had too much to do before the trip. However, I caught her at home long enough to deliver a dozen roses to commemorate her achievement. I think I earned a few brownie points for that move, but we'll see how it goes after MT comes back from the trip.
Burglar, thanks for the start.
DrBart, congrats on the escape from Jerry Land.
MarkRice, enjoy the conference (yeah right).
Lap'd, every time I think I'm doing big mileage, I see one of your posts and just shake my head. And you have small kids...
CVB, what are you getting MRI'd? I guess I missed something somewhere.
QOTD: I had discovered Pfitz and Hadd, which emphasizes heart rate training, elsewhere (more precisely, on other RWOL forums), so I don't think this forum really has changed my running per se. What I found here was a wealth of Boston-specific information (as we all know, Boston isn't quite like any other race). And, more importantly, a lot of great folks, some still here, some who have moved on, who I am now proud to call my friends, virtual and otherwise.

Marathons to date: 17. States: 10. Countries: 4. PR: Memphis 2009 3:31:56. Next up: London Marathon 4-24-16, shorter races in the interim.
got a beast in this morning before work. will bike home. run felt great but i still have lingering soreness from my minor neck injury (wresting with 2yo DD).
filled in my spring/summer training schedule. much like fearing rain right after a car wash, i'm fearing an unexpected life event to mess it all up. having skipped a spring marathon, i really feel mentally and physically fresh, although i've maintained my fitness during this break in the training better than any other in the past. just need a little luck avoiding injuries and good race weather this fall to see some benefit.
QOTD: as others have said, i've learned a lot. the 3 most important that have gotten me closer to achieving my potential are a) hearing so many forumites having success w/ Pfitz of which i feel i have benefited from following, b) slowing down my LR pace after reading those who are a lot faster racers than me running a slower LR pace than i was, and c) slowing down my Recovery pace (which i admit i still struggle with).
CVB - hope to hear good news from your MRI today (or will you not get any results until a later time?).
Spider - enjoy the well earned day off. i'm sure the legs will come back stronger tomorrow.
Mark - safe travels
Lap'd - i almost finished my french press caraff already! i may need an afternoon supplement...
Marco- that forecast looks great! for me it would mean short sleeves. hope the rain stays away, or is just a drizzle. I missed what race it is?
DrB - SIL sounds pretty crazy. glad you are free.
Burglar - thanks for the start, great question. enjoy the track!
Good Morning My Super Peeps
I've been MIA the last few days. We had an amazing time in S.F. with my Divas. Here is a couple of pictures. I wanted to race the 1/2 but my Divas begged me to stay with them and I'm glad I did. Now back to hard training and tapering for Ojai. It will take me a few days to catch up on the dailies but I will...I miss my Super Peeps
Great Day to All who follow
GM All,
I have to admit my luck with rain is holding quite solid. When I came in from my 20 on Sunday it started to rain within 2 minutes. I was amazed. Poured all day yesterday, but just cloudy on my run in the afternoon. Rained all night after that. Today I have my fingers crossed for more of the same luck with my 6 miles.
My special luck skill in life is the weather and good parking spots.
QOTD - I too have picked up so many tips and tricks. For Boston my entire trip was brought about by tips from the forum, from hotels, to transit and to the race. My mantra, that truly kept me on task, was "Put it in the bank from miles 9 - 16" Honestly around mile 14 I wanted to fade so badly, but I kept on until mile 16 with that in mind. And it was a great strategy because once the hills kicked in I needed the time cushion.
BB - You could probably start the dailies quite often with your time zone
Itza - Good to hear about your marathon, that looked like a tricky course. That might be the best way for me to truly slow down, trails and hills and lots of scenery. Pick a marathon that is just fun running.
CVB - How did the MRI go? That's a weird test, going into the tunnel. Not really a fun time, but necessary.
DrBart - Ok, maybe I have that good luck skill too, they have never questioned anything in my bags. I even think some of the stuff looks suspicious, but I'm always waved right through. Then some young mother with a child and a stroller gets grilled. It's an odd job.
Marco - I think those are good temperatures too. It's so funny how my opinion has changed since I started running. I used to be a fan of 70 but cloudy
Lap'd - I get people saying that to me "I see you ALL the time" as if I'm crazy. Well why are they not running, I think they are crazy.
Mark - Do your legs get twitchy when you drive and haven't been running? I tend to like a small shakeout run prior to a long drive. Not sure if it's the best or not.
Spider - The beloved taper time. Hope you enjoy yours fully.
JOLVm - I have to admit I've gotten the opposite benefit, I learned I need to pick up the pace more often. I have no problem drifting into a 10 min/mile pace on a long run or recovery run. But it still counts as running!
Trisha--great phots..thanks!
JOLV--Fredericton Marathon....couldn't be a much flatter course and most is on a nice cushiony riverwalk. Last time I ran it in 2010 it was 42 degrees and drizzle the first few miles. It was my first time with a BQ.
Marco - I am in the UK and am pleased to tell you that the quarantine laws are not so rigid now - if you know you're coming here 6 months ahead of time and start the blood tests then. By following the protocol, quarantine can be avoided. Once in the EU, your dogs will get pet passports and re-entry is relatively simple. We took ours to Canada in 2010 when I worked there for a year and apart from the high cost of travel for them, it was just a bit of bureaucracy.
Trisha - glad you enjoyed SF
Maureen - I don't mind starting this occasionally. I think the challenge is having a good QOTD, not what time zone you're in.
Speaking of which, some good answers today and clearly the veterans have too many good tips over the years to list them all. I suspect, as some of you have suggested, that the most useful have been the Boston specific suggestions.
PR's: 5K - 17:16, 10K - 37:06 (HM Split), HM - 1:18:14, M - 2:55:58
2015 Goals: Sub 35 10k, Sub 2:50 marathon
I logged a lot of miles in my double jogger (twin boys). I was a long time runner then but not a marathoner so there was less pressure around type and duration of workouts. The most I got with them was around 8 miles. That's pretty good. I have fond memories of seeing their heads through the plastic window as I puttered around the river. Nice thing about the double was that it made a nice barrier to ward off Lance Armstrong types. Now they come out on the river and bike while I run.
BostonBurlar, where are you? Britain?
ItzaSicknuss, glad you missed the chaos.
CVB, wondering what your MRI is for?
DrBart, no movies for me anymore (except at home).
Marco, a relocation may be good for your running. Don't know how you did it this past winter.
Lap'd, pretty good organization to get a run in with all the other stuff.
Mark, have a safe trip. Smart to have a RD. You're already up to 50MPW anyways! I'm hoping to get 5 miles in this week (of swimming).
JOLVm, I used to do WWF wrestling with my twin boys. If I tried it now I'd end up in a hospital. Any thoughts for your Fall marathon? I may end up having to skip mine with this injury?
Trisha, SF is very high on my list to see. You three are very distracting divas
Maureen, RAIN out there! I feel like I have parking lot luck too (actually think I have a "skill.")
QOTD: I have found that having people to talk to about training is the biggest change I've had coming out here. For 20+ years I ran in complete isolation and it was fine but training for marathons really forced me to break out and try to find like minded nuts.
Last summer I started a thread which I thought would end in one day and it turned out a whole bunch of folks stayed with me and answered the most basic questions. I even confirmed that many of you are REAL at the Beerworks.
I may head out to Walden to water run
jbc - You must be getting close to three weeks. When are you going to try out the foot?
jbc - my injury isn't serious, just taking longer than usual to heal (sign of age?). it makes me tense running, increasing the pain, but it's still tolerable and shouldn't slow me down. btw - i visited your thread frequently, usually lurking but posting every now and again. i'm sorta like you in that i don't really have people close to me that are runners so nobody to talk to or understand our excitement or frustration with how a race turns out. i am currently signed up for a Full on 9/22 and 10/6. healing vibes to you.
frank - i hear ya. i swear my DW had a love child with Wolverine cause my 4yo is seemingly indescructible. i have replaced the saying "dont' take a bull into a china shop" with "don't take my 4yo anywhere".
My primary Dr. is great. He will order me an MRI and Bone scan just to see what's going on.
I really don't have any pain walking but feel a slight dull ache - nothing terrible. When I lean towards the right (side of the foot) I will feel something. This Friday will mark 2 weeks of no running. Prior to that I ran 4 x post marathon (very slow). Feel like I've lost some conditioning already and I want this thing healed.
I'm tempted to get out to Walden Pond for a 2nd time just to water run! That's how crazed I'm feeling.
JOLVm, I remember you out on that thread from time to time. I think you offered some good advice the night before my Hartford marathon about shorts vs tights.
CVB was getting an MRI on her arm/back because of the unknown owie she has there.
Thanks Smoke.
I'm hoping to get some clarity when I get the MRI/Bone scan.
Suppose I should feel good that there is no pain when walking (no real pain at all - though I've not really tested the spot). Your advice was very helpful: stop running. As hard as it was to absorb I'm really hoping this thing will resolve.
Off to DS#1 Baseball game.
Back to the qotd since I actually have more than 3 minutes back to back. I learned about Pfitz from here and that was the single most thing that took me from 3:25-30 to consistently in the 3 0 range and my sub 3. I did have to actually do the runs but I was clueless about plans before And the structure really helped.
Jolv: I have had way more medical issues since I started running than when I was not.
Bart: When and if I ever rant I am sure I would be a bit more colorful. I am fairly close with this stupid stone. Been having lots of nausea for the last 4 days. Zofran does not help much, although it is great for causing constipation, can't really eat and have lost 5 pounds. All of that makes running unpleasant and kind of hard. Had to quit at 5 today. Got a CT today but Uro closed early so I have no idea what the status or location of the little monster is.
6.27 at MP. So much for taking it easy in taper week.
Hey peeps. Nice way to start my taper. I spent the day at work training our new nurse practitioner. Our last patient of the day was an admission up on the floor. We finished the admission and got on the elevator to go downstairs to the office. Elevator moved about three inches and stopped dead. Doors wouldn't open, elevator wouldn't budge. It took maintenance almost 30 minutes to get there, pry the doors open and let us step up three inches to get out. I've been on this planet for 52.5 years, never got stuck on an elevator -- until the first day of this taper. Nice.

Yesterday FIFA announced that Qatar will host the 2022 World Cup, beating out countries like the USA and Australia in the bidding process.
Qatar, a country with 1.7 million people (smaller than the state of Connecticut), is a controversial choice and one that has sparked much debate in the last 24 hours. The consumption of alcohol in public in Qatar is illegal, although certain exceptions will be made during the World Cup.
It is also illegal to be gay in Qatar, (or rather to commit acts of homosexuality), an offense with a penalty of fines, imprisonment for up to five years or deportation, making the country an unfriendly choice for LGBT fans.
In addition, Qatar does not recognize Israel, although they have said that they will welcome Israel's team into the country to compete if they qualify.
In the summer Qatar's temperature is normally above 100 degrees so they have promised to air condition their stadiums using green technologies like solar thermal collectors and photovoltaic panels. They plan to put billions of dollars into building new stadiums and lodgings that can accommodate the large number of attendees.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad Al-Thani, the head of the emirate's bid team, said:
"Thank you for believing in change, for expanding the game and for giving Qatar a chance. You will be proud of us – and you will be proud of the Middle East. I promise you this."
Qatar will be the first country in the Middle East to host the World Cup.

Mack Trucks names Redhead Equipment as 2009 North American Distributor of the Year
Posted By Tina Grady Barbaccia On April 21, 2010 @ 6:48 pm In Manufacturers News | No Comments

The goal was to gather 100,000 pounds of food this winter for hungry Delawareans.
Much of it arrived aboard two trucks of non-perishables delivered to the Food Bank of Delaware Friday afternoon.
The trucks contained 60,000 pounds of food and arrived with a bonus delivered by Giant Food's Jamie Miller, the chain's public and community relations manager: a check for $4,276.24 - part of the more than $142,000 Giant customers and associates donated for five Feeding American food banks across the mid-Atlantic. ...

How can I prosecute someone who commited a crime against me
More details:
He consigned the loans. They all went into default and collectors are coming after myself and at least two other people I now who also signed loans with him. He said he was investing in businesses and properties and would pay our loans back if we signed these loans to helphim with the businesses. i recently found him through google and found out he has been convicted of drug possession and money laundering for a business he started in Phoenix AZ? I have suffered many years over this. I'm 26 and still have not been able to finish my education because they were student loans, and due to the loan not being paid back i cannot get financial aide and i am not wealthy, i have health problems also which has made me only able to work on and off through the years. He preyed on college students for this reason. Any advice would help. Please.

From the sounds of your explanation situation, unless you can establish that the signator of these loans committed fraud against you, your only recourse against him would be in a civil court. Ultimately any decision to prosecute an individual for a crime resides in the County Prosecutor's office. What you should do is contact the prosecutor in the county in which you live and sound them out about the likelihood charging this individual. I don't want to discourage you, but the chances are they won't.
Jeffrey Noe
Answered 2 years ago
The only person who can prosecute a crime is a prosecutor. This person is an official in the state, county, or municipality where the alleged crime happened. There are also federal prosecutors. Prosecutors decide which cases to prosecute based on the seriousness of the crime, the impact of the crime on the public, the strength of the evidence, and other factors. If a crime was committed here, it does not sound like a crime that would be prosecuted in most jurisdictions unless this is part of a larger overall scheme. For example, if the debtor here actually defrauded hundreds or thousands of people in the same scheme, the crime is more likely to be prosecuted. You may be able to recover against the person in civil court. You would need to sue the person and present evidence. If the judge rules in your favor, the judge will issue a judgment. Then the hard part: You have to collect on the judgment.

Jamie Dornan Reportedly Cast in 'Fifty Shades of Grey': Who Is He?
Fifty Shades of Grey has its new Christian Grey!
After Charlie Hunnam dropped out of the film, Jamie Dornan has reportedly been cast in the lead role.
While Anastasia Steele's character has been fulfilled by Daktota Johnson since early September, Christian Grey's character has been under much scrutiny as of late. But on Wednesday, it was announced that the Once Upon a Time star would be taking Charlie's place. Universal and Focus are currently drafting a contract for Jamie to formally accept the role, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
To properly introduce you to the "new" Christian Grey, we've pulled together 5 facts that will make you fall in love with Jamie.
1. He can sing!
Who doesn't love a man who can sing? Jamie and his friends started a folk band called Sons of Jim, which toured with KT Tunstall. Sadly, the band broke up in 2008 — but not to worry, we can still listen to his music on repeat:
2. He got his start modeling underwear for Calvin Klein
Jamie posed — with nothing on but underwear– alongside Kate Moss and Eva Mendes for an ad campaign in 2009.
3. He plays rugby
Ever since he was a teen, Jamie has excelled at rugby, the British version of football, which involves him wrestling around for a ball. (No wonder he's in such good shape.) Although he was a great athlete, Jamie gave up the sport for drama school.
4. He's a daddy-to-be
Jamie and his wife, British actress-singer Amelia Warner, are expecting their first child! The couple announced the good news this past June.
5. He's Irish … and Has a Dreamy Accent
Need we say more? Listen and enjoy…
Have you fallen in love yet?
Fans are eagerly awaiting the August 2014 release of Fifty Shades of Grey, inspired by E.L. James' best-selling book. The movie is currently in pre-production, but director Sam Taylor-Johnson hopes to begin filming this November.

KINGSTON ŌĆö The University of Rhode Island MenŌĆÖs Soccer team opened up their season at home this past Friday night with a frustrating 1-1 tie against Seton Hall University, as the Pirates scored a goal late in the second half of play to force the draw, after the game reached two overtimes.
NORTH KINGSTOWNŌĆöAlmost every athlete growing up has either watched or heard about the iconic sports movie ŌĆ£Field of Dreams.ŌĆØ This past Wednesday night, Special Olympic athletesŌĆÖ had the chance to resurrect their own baseball dreams, playing in the 10th annual Field of Dreams softball classic held at Lischio Field in North Kingstown.
WEST WARWICKŌĆöThe Rhode Island Summer Hockey league wrapped up its National Conference regular season and playoffs this past week in West Warwick as North Kingstown and the Saints battled it out till the end, but the Saints eventually won 3-2; they went on to claim the summer league championship against East Providence.
North Kingstown entered the ice strong during the first half with a 2-0 lead thanks to Cam Minor and Ian Morgan. Minor started it all off with a goal at the 1:37 mark of the first period, which was assisted by team captain Liam Rial.
NARRAGANSETTŌĆöIt was a tremendous summer for the North Kingstown Gold eighth-grade basketball team as they entered the Narragansett Basketball Youth League as the premier first seed before going on to defeat local rivals North Kingstown Blue in the semi-finals and South Kingstown for the championship title.
In this opening game of last ThursdayŌĆÖs playoff matchups, NK Gold knocked off NK Blue by a margin of 20 points and the number two seedŌĆöSouth KingstownŌĆöslipped by Chariho Green with an outstanding comeback in the middle of the second half to win, 42-37.
KINGSTONŌĆöURI WomenŌĆÖs Soccer opened their 2014 season this week starting on Friday against in-state rival Providence College before hosting their home-opener on Sunday against Fairfield.
The two games were nearly the perfect start that URI WomenŌĆÖs Head Coach Mike Needham was looking for, as they left Providence in a 1-1 two-overtime draw and then snuck out a thrilling 1-0 shutout to lift the young Rams to 1-0-1 in the early season.
NARRAGANSETTŌĆöThe Chariho Green eighth-graders werenŌĆÖt victorious during Thursday nightŌĆÖs playoff game of the Narragansett Summer Basketball League, but they did accomplish something that very few Chariho middle school basketball teams haveŌĆöan invite to the summer league postseason.
The single-elimination tournament included four teams moving on to play in the playoff rounds: South Kingstown, Chariho Green, and two North Kingstown teams. Green entered as the third best team playing and they would be matched up against a tough gritty South Kingstown team that had one loss on their resume.
NEWPORTŌĆöThings started to heat up in the New England Collegiate Baseball League earlier this week as the Newport Gulls claimed second place in the Southern Division, meaning the third place Ocean State Waves would have to travel to Newport to begin the opening divisional-round of the playoffs.
For a league that is commonly recognized to many people as the second-best summer collegiate league in the nation, it sure looked that way this past week during the first round playoffs with the new-look Rhode Island NECBL playoff rivalry stirring up.

The Rock Band team put on an exclusive show for Unscripted 360 fans that even had the CEO of Harmonix rockin' the stage. If you missed that, you can check it out here. I had my doubts about the "band" element in Rock Band but after trying it, it was clear that those doubts were pointless.

Female thieves drug supermarket guardComment on this story
Potchefstroom - Two women distracted a Potchefstroom supermarket guard with conversation and possibly a drugged soft drink, before they robbed the shop with the help of two men, Beeld reported on Thursday.
North West police spokeswoman Captain Adele Myburgh said the robbery, at the Spar in Baillie Park, happened on Tuesday night after closing time.
"The two women initially asked the guard if they could use the toilet. They then chatted him up, and offered him a soft drink."
The guard reportedly started feeling drowsy a short while later, and told police that two men had joined the women.
They tied up the guard and knocked him over the head, after which he lost consciousness.
"The robbers gained access to the shop through the ceiling and took an undisclosed amount of money from the safe. The owners still have to assess their stock to see if anything else was stolen," Myburgh said.
The incapacitated guard was discovered by a colleague who arrived to relieve him the next morning.
No arrests have been made.

You've probably heard Brevard schools are so short money the board must close three schools in North and Central Brevard. And now it must beat two civil-rights lawsuits to do it.
What you probably haven't heard: the Canaveral Port Authority, whose boundaries include the schools, is sitting on so much cash it could save them and still do everything its stakeholders want.

High-end Motorola handset coming as Somerset
updated 09:05 am EDT, Mon May 25, 2009
Motorola Somerset coming
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group's (SIG) website has revealed that the high-end Motorola Alexander may soon be released in various markets as the Somerset. The sliding QWERTY handset was first spotted in August of last year, and is expected to have a 5- or 8-megapixel camera. Considering the source, the only specs confirmed include Bluetooth hands-free profile 1.5, object push profile and a dial up networking profile support, among others.
The Somerset will have a 3.5mm stereo audio jack, MMC memory card support and, at least initially, GSM voice network support. Earlier reports had the handset powered by Windows Mobile 6.1, but with Android being so prominent in the company's 2009 strategy, it is expected Motorola will introduce a version preloaded with the open-source OS.
Pricing or release dates for the Motorola Somerset are still unknown. [via CellPassion]

Verge Ensemble is the performance group of the Contemporary Music Forum and was the New Music Ensemble-in-Residence At the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC until 2015. Starting with the 2015/16 season, Verge will be in residence at the Washington Conservatory of Music.
The Contemporary Music Forum, CMF, is Washington DC's oldest contemporary music organization. A group of professional performers and composers founded CMF in 1973 to encourage the composition and performance of the music of our time. CMF gave its first series of performances free at the Washington Ethical Society. It has given a subscription series at the Corcoran Gallery of Art since 1977.
CMF has been a crucial instrument in the development of new music. It is unique in Washington in its goal to support the presentation of new works, underwriting the performance of music by innumerable contemporary composers.
Enjoying wide critical acclaim, CMF's achievements have been recognized by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, as well as several major foundations including the Randy Hostetler Livingroom Music Fund, the Cafritz Foundation, the Dreyfus Foundation, the Kiplinger Foundation, and International Humanities, Inc. CMF has received numerous grants from the Copland Fund for Music.

EPISD Trustee Rocio Benedicto on Tuesday apologized to the Bowie High School community for the illegal grade altering and other wrongdoing that occurred at the district at the expense of students.
"Pain has been caused," Benedicto said. "You did not deserve to be judged because of the actions of some of adults in your educational lives."
A May 2011 EPISD internal audit report found evidence that some Bowie students were improperly classified in the wrong grade, preventing them from taking the 10th-grade state assessment used for federal and state accountability measures. Others had their passing grades changed to failing, making them ninth-graders instead of sophomores.
On June 13, former Superintendent Lorenzo García pleaded guilty to inflating state and federal accountability scores at different schools to secure federal No Child Left Behind funding.
To ensure the problems that were documented at Bowie never happen again, Benedicto said she would work closely with EPISD administrators to "close any gaps and put into place structures that will protect students."
School board President Isela Castañon-Williams and Trustee Joel Barrios added their apologies to the community for problems the district has faced but stopped short of accepting responsibility.

When the Formula 1 drivers were informed that they could choose their own numbers for the 2014 season, many reverted to the number that they had on their go-kart during their junior racing days.
Daniel Ricciardo was no exception, having raced the No. 3 in years past. However, when word broke out that the young Australian had also picked the No. 3 from being an Intimidator fan, none other than NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. soon got to talking to him on Twitter. And, not soon after winning himself at Pocono, Earnhardt Jr. was one of the first to congratulate the young Ricciardo on his maiden F1 win.Canadian GP, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Daniel Ricciardo, Formula 1, NASCAR, Pocono

There is no question in the minds of many Americans that Napa Valley is the country's most important wine area. It has the panache (grand wineries), makes the nation's most recognized red wine (cabernet sauvignon), and has for a long time been seen as a tourist mecca.
And those are some of the reasons that film director Francis Ford Coppola acquired the historic Inglenook winery in 1975 on a site some consider the best cabernet land in Napa. It was THE place to be.
And Coppola wasn't done at the site in Rutherford. Next he paid an outrageous sum to add some prestigious, adjacent vineyard acreage to the project, spent even more to restore the property lavishly, and finally spent even more to re-acquire the Inglenook name and re-name the property back to its founding name from 1879.
All this has made a lot of headlines over the years and has made Coppola a hero to many who treasure the valley's history.
With a red wine called Rubicon considered among the great wines of Napa, Coppola is now poised to release a new Inglenook red wine that will, says the winery, pay homage to the winery's founder, Finnish sea captain Gustave Niebaum, and his successor, John Daniel and his family.
Far less publicized is Coppola's dedication to his other winery in Sonoma County, which he acquired in 2006 and began to revitalize as it had never been.
Located near Geyserville in northern Sonoma County, Francis Ford Coppola Winery had been the old, sprawling Souverain winery, an aging project that once, decades ago, had been the home to a cooperative that made a number of fascinating wines, but little that was great.
In recent years, it had been operated by Treasury Wine Estates and winemaker Ed Killian had made some splendid wines. Coppola wanted a property large enough to create a family-oriented project, and Souverain seemed perfect except that it needed much renovation.
"Soon after Francis acquired the property," said winemaker/general manager Corey Beck, "the economy began to get weak, and we weren't sure which parts of the restoration would continue." He said Coppola has amazing taste, and every addition to the project had to be first-class.
As a result, he said, Coppola never wavered in his commitment to making what soon became known as Rosso & Bianco a gorgeous winery.

Analysis of the Poem
Originally published in 1789 in Songs of Innocence, William Blake's "The Chimney Sweeper" is a tragic poem that offers the reader a perspective into the oppressive, dangerous work of a young 18th century chimney sweep. Blake, a celebrated English poet and painter, is known for writing about young children and providing social commentary in his works--"The Chimney Sweeper" is no exception. "The Chimney Sweeper" is one of Blake's more celebrated works for its juxtaposition of themes of innocence and undertones of social commentary and melancholy imagery.

San Marcos, TX (Sports Network) - Joel Wright led five Bobcats in double-
figures with a team-high 19 points, leading Texas State to a 86-76 season-
opening victory over the Fordham Rams at Strahan Coliseum.
Wright registered a double-double for Texas State (1-0) with 12 rebounds and
was joined in double-figure scoring by Matt Staff's 17 points, Corey Stern's
16, and Vonn Jones and Wesley Davis with 10 each.
The Rams (0-1) failed to capitalize on a strong performance by Chris Gaston
who finished with 19 points and a game-high 14 rebounds, although he also
turned the ball over seven times. Branden Frazier added 18 points while Bryan
Smith chipped in 16 in the loss.
The Bobcats outscored Fordham 41-34 in the first half as the Rams shot just 1-
of-5 behind the three-point line and 7-of-16 at the charity stripe.
The Rams played a more competitive second half but were still outscored 15-7
at the free-throw line.
Both teams had problems handling the ball as the Rams suffered 23 turnovers
and the Bobcats 18 miscues.

Fender Guitars offers $200 USB guitar with iOS connection
updated 11:53 pm EST, Mon November 12, 2012
Features USB and traditional quarter-inch amp connector
Apple and guitar manufacturer Fender have collaborated to produce a version of the Squier Stratocaster aimed at beginning guitarists that features iOS compatibility, a USB port, and the traditional quarter-inch analog connector for $200 in time for the holiday season. The guitar includes a Type B mini-USB to 30-pin dock connector cable that is compatible with all but the most current iPhone, iPad and iPod touch models. Thanks to its compatibility with programs such as GarageBand, the guitar makes an excellent first or practice instrument.
Including the USB port in the body of the guitar saves performers the hassle of carrying an analog to digital (A-D) converter along with the rest of their gear. A number of companies make inexpensive analog to USB converters that work with any guitar, but having the capability built-in makes practice or jamming into an iPad or iPhone equipped with recording software quicker and easier. Users will need to purchase a $19 Lightning-to-USB adapter if they want to use the guitar with the latest iOS devices that feature Lightning ports.
In addition to the quarter-inch output jack, the guitar comes equipped with a headphone jack for monitoring. Also included are cables for hooking the USB port directly to a Mac or PC. The Fender guitar is available exclusively through Apple retail stores.

Pulmonary hypertension — which is elevated pressure in the vessels that carry blood to the lungs — can be tricky to diagnose because its symptoms resemble those of so many other conditions.
Symptoms of Pulmonary Hypertension
The main symptom of pulmonary hypertension is shortness of breath when doing things that aren't terribly strenuous. Activities like household chores or climbing stairs become a problem, and some even have shortness of breath at rest. "Usually it's a gradual thing that progresses over a period of months or years," says Myung H. Park, MD. Dr. Park is director of the Pulmonary Vascular Diseases Program at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore.
People with pulmonary hypertension may also have chest pain. Sometimes this is severe enough that it mimics a heart attack, Dr. Park says.
Other common symptoms of pulmonary hypertension include:
- Erratic or irregular heartbeats (heart palpitations), especially if they occur with exertion
- Fatigue
- Dizziness
- Swelling of the ankles, legs, or abdomen
"These symptoms are often attributed to other things, which is why pulmonary hypertension often is misdiagnosed until it's at a late stage," Park says.
5 Types of Pulmonary Hypertension
The diagnostic process is extensive but important because there are five categories, called groups, of pulmonary hypertension. Your treatment options depend on the group you're in. The groups, according to the NIH National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, are:
- Group 1: Known as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), this type might be inherited, or idiopathic (meaning there is no identifiable cause). It can be caused by conditions that affect the blood vessels of the lungs, or caused by specific conditions such as HIV or liver disease. It may also be caused by certain drugs or toxins, including some diet medications and illegal drugs.
- Group 2: Pulmonary hypertension in this group is related to conditions that affect the left side of the heart. This includes valvular disorders and heart failure.
- Group 3: This type is related to lung diseases, like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It also includes conditions leading to disordered breathing, such as sleep apnea.
- Group 4: Pulmonary hypertension in this category is related to clotting disorders or blood clots affecting the lungs.
- Group 5: In this group, the condition is related to other disorders, including tumors that affect blood vessels and the lungs and systemic disorders.
Diagnosing Pulmonary Hypertension
If your doctor thinks you may have pulmonary hypertension, the doctor will take your medical history to find out about other health conditions that might be related to your symptoms. You will also have a physical examination. In addition, you will likely be scheduled for a chest X-ray and other tests to evaluate your lung function and capacity.
You may also have an echocardiogram. This is a painless test in which a special probe, placed on the chest, directs sound waves into the chest cavity. Some of the waves bounce back when they encounter a solid structure, like the heart. A computer uses this information to generate an echocardiogram, or picture of the heart. It also estimates the pressure in the pulmonary artery.
"This is usually where pulmonary hypertension is first detected," Dr. Park says. Your doctor will discuss the results of the test with you and recommend further testing if it is necessary.
The only way to confirm a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension is with a test called a right heart catheterization. It involves inserting a thin tube, or catheter, into a major vein in your neck or groin area. The catheter is then threaded into the pulmonary artery, where the pulmonary arterial pressure is measured. You'll be sedated but remain awake for the procedure.
"Until you perform this test, you cannot definitively say if someone has pulmonary hypertension or not," Park explains. Your doctor will discuss the results of this test with you, probably while you are recovering.
RELATED: How a Pulmonary Hypertension Diagnosis Changed My Life
Ruling Out Other Health Conditions
Blood tests can determine if you have conditions often associated with pulmonary hypertension. These include connective tissue disease, HIV, liver diseases such as hepatitis C, or sickle cell anemia. Results from blood tests such as these may take a few days to come back. Most centers will also have you walk for six minutes — the distance you cover during that time reflects your stamina and heart function.
Because the symptoms mimic asthma, you may be tested for that as well. Asthma tests include chest X-rays and lung function tests.
In a thorough evaluation, you also may be asked to undergo a sleep study. This tests your breathing and oxygen levels during sleep to determine if you have sleep apnea. People with sleep apnea stop breathing for dozens, sometimes hundreds, of brief episodes during the night. They snore and struggle for breath, but rarely wake up completely until the morning. They arise feeling sleepy or groggy, but without knowing why.
"Sleep apnea can increase lung pressure," Park says. However, she adds, if that's the only medical condition you have, any associated pulmonary hypertension is likely to be mild.

Apple is disproportionately impacting indices and earnings data, skewing the picture of what is actually occurring.
"While most U.S. companies have struggled to meet earnings expectations, the Cupertino, Calif.-based maker of iPads and iPhones has surpassed even the most bullish of expectations, reporting $13.1 billion in profits during the fiscal 2012 first quarter that ended Dec. 31, more than double that of a year earlier. Revenue soared 73% to $46.3 billion. Those earnings account for about 6% of the S&P 500′s fourth-quarter earnings, according to S&P Indices, making Apple the biggest earnings contributor to the S&P 500."
