(SportsNetwork.com) - The San Diego Padres look to record their sixth victory in eight games on Thursday evening as they conclude a four-game series with the Colorado Avalanche.
Padres eye series win vs. Rockies
After splitting the first two games of the series, the Padres set themselves up for at least a split by taking last night's contest 4-2. Andrew Cashner followed up a one-hit performance his last time out by holding the Rockies to a pair of runs -- one earned -- over 7 1/3 innings.
Cashner, who had struck out 11 in last Friday's win over the Detroit Tigers, worked around nine hits against the Rockies while fanning five.
Colorado starter Jorge De La Rosa tried to keep pace with Casher, yielding three runs (2 earned) over his six innings, but still fell to 0-3.
"You know (Casher) worked his way through the game in a pitchers' duel," Padres manager Bud Black said. "De La Rosa hung in there with him. I thought Cash threw fine. He really made pitches when he needed to. Overall, another well-pitched game."
Tommy Medica hit a solo homer, Chris Denorfia had two RBI and Alexi Amarista scored twice for the Padres, who have won six of their last eight games versus the Rockies.
Justin Morneau went 3-for-3 with a homer and knocked in both Colorado runs, but the club still fell to 2-4 on a seven-game road trip.
"I thought it was as solid outing," said Rockies manager Walt Weiss. "(De La Rosa) did a nice job to give us a chance to win that game. You don't get a lot of opportunities against (Cashner)."
Franklin Morales will take the mound for Colorado, back in the rotation due to Brett Anderson's finger injury.
Morales began the season as a starter, but went 0-1 in two starts while yielding nine runs over 11 2/3 innings. The left-hander was then moved to the bullpen when Tyler Chatwood returned from a hamstring strain and he made a relief appearance on Sunday versus San Francisco, walking one and striking out two in a scoreless innings.
"That's why Frankie is valuable to us, he can do a number of things," Weiss said on Colorado's website. "He's shown that he can start. We knew he wanted to start. He felt it was an opportunity when he came over here. I have no problem with him making starts for this club."
Morales, 28, is 0-2 with three saves and a 6.28 earned run average in 14 career meetings with the Padres, including one start.
Ian Kennedy hopes to pitch the Padres to the series win and is 1-2 with a 4.24 ERA through three starts.
The 29-year-old righty is coming off a 6-2 loss to Detroit on Saturday as he allowed four runs on eight hits and a walk in six innings. Kennedy did manage to strike out seven.
Kennedy is 3-3 lifetime versus the Rockies with a 2.80 ERA.

Honeywells 5806W3 is a 3V battery operated, photoelectronic smoke detector with a built-in wireless transmitter. It facilitates fire verification for false alarm reduction requirements by ANSI/SIA CP-01standards and is intended for use with any of Honeywells 5800 Series wireless receiver/transceivers for residential installations. The 5881ENHC or 5883H receivers are required for commercial installations.
The transmitter can send alarm, tamper, maintenance (when control panels are equipped to process maintenance signals) and battery condition messages to the systems receiver. The maintenance signal fully complies with the sensitivity test requirement specified in NFPA 72, 7-2.2 and is UL approved.
The 5806W3 incorporates a state-of-the-art optical sensing chamber and advanced microprocessor. It also helps eliminate nuisance alarms and virtually eliminates non-billable service calls and fines resulting from false alarms. The microprocessor allows the detector to automatically maintain proper operation at factory calibrated detection levels, even when sensitivity is altered due to the presence of contaminants settling into the units smoke chamber. A removable detector cover and chamber top allows the technician to quickly and easily clean the detector chamber without disassembling the detector head.
Since there are no holes to drill or wires to run, installers can preserve the beauty of the protected premise while protecting it. The 5806W3 is an ideal smoke detector for difficult to wire locations, applications where room aesthetics are critical or where hazardous materials exist.
Additional Features:
The 5800CO is a 3V battery powered wireless carbon monoxide (CO) detector intended for use with Honeywell alarm systems that support 5800 Series wireless devices. It provides early warning when its electrochemical sensing technology measures carbon monoxide levels in the air.
The 5800CO is specifically designed for system operation and is fully listed to UL 2075 as a system supervised detector.* It contains a piezoelectric horn which generates the ANSI S3.41 temporal 4 pattern in an alarm condition.
The detector consists of an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor assembly coupled with a wireless transmitter. The transmitter can send alarm, trouble, end-of-life, tamper and low battery condition messages to the alarm panel.
Since there are no holes to drill or wires to run, you can preserve the beauty of the home or building while protecting its occupants from harmful carbon monoxide gas. The 5800CO is an ideal carbon monoxide detector for difficult to wire locations, applications where room aesthetics are critical or where hazardous materials exist.
What is Carbon Monoxide and How Can it Harm Consumers?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, tasteless and highly toxic gas that is produced when fuels such as wood, gasoline, charcoal and oil are burned with insufficient air. The majority of residential and commercial fatalities caused from these fuels come from heating systems, engine powered tools and charcoal grills. Carbon monoxide is harmful when inhaled because it displaces oxygen in the blood and deprives the heart, brain and other vital organs of oxygen. Large amounts of CO can overcome a person in minutes without warningcausing them to lose consciousness and suffocate.
The 5800CO is designed to warn the end-user well before the CO reaches a fatal level. The detectors CO sensitivity is evaluated to UL 2034.
ADEMCOs powerful 5808LST is a combination wireless photoelectric smoke and heat detector that trips when temperatures reach 135 F. Ideal for difficult to wire locations, situations where room aesthetics are critical, or where hazardous materials exist, the 5808LST provides the ultimate in installation flexibility.
Remarkably cost-effective, the attractive, low profile unit blends easily with any dcor and provides benefits rarely found in smoke detectors in this price range. Smart Check remote maintenance reporting automatically alerts the central station when it is in need of service, and built-in drift compensation continuously corrects sensitivity variances caused by dust. The 5808LST is UL 268 listed for use in both commercial and residential applications.

There are four elementary principles for selecting foods to ensure the proper quantities of acidifying, alkalizing, and acid foods in the diet. These are accompanied by four additional rules to be followed by people who are unable to metabolize acids properly.
Rule one: A meal should never consist solely of acidifying foods but should always contain alkaline foods.
A meal of meat with pasta, or fish and rice, with cake and coffee for dessert is not a recommended menu because it consists entirely of acidifying foods; the same applies to a meatless meal of pasta with tomato sauce followed by a dessert sweetened with white sugar. By adding vegetables to this meal in the form of salads or raw or cooked vegetables, the alkaline intake at least partially compensates for the acids. Vegetables are typically included with meals, but often in such small quantities that their effect is negligible.
Rule two: The amount of alkalizing foods should be greater proportionately than the amount of acidifying foods at anyone meal.
The proportion of foods that produce alkaline elements should always be greater than that of foods that produce acids. Eating in this manner ensures that the acids are neutralized at the intestinal or tissue level without any need for the body to draw from its reserves.
Rule three: The proportion of alkalizing foods should be even greater proportionately when there is pronounced acidification of the internal environment or when the individual is unable to metabolize acids properly.
The more the body is weakened or exhausted, the less alkaline reserve it has for its buffer system, and the less capable it is of oxidizing acids. Putting less acid into the body makes it easier for the body to maintain its acid-alkaline balance.
Rule four: A diet consisting solely of alkaline vegetables and plant-based food is possible, but only for a limited period (one to two weeks).
An exclusively alkaline diet, consisting solely of vegetables, potatoes, bananas, almonds, and so forth, cannot be continued indefinitely because it is seriously inadequate in protein. Such diets are useful when acidification is very significant and the disorders it has caused are acute, intense, and painful. The abrupt, complete elimination of all acids allows the body to recover more rapidly and return to a normal acid-alkaline balance. An exclusively alkaline diet should remain a short-term therapeutic action so as not to compromise health.
There are four additional rules that people suffering from an inability to metabolize acids properly should heed.
Rule five: A meal should never consist solely of acid foods but should always include alkaline foods.
This rule is almost identical to rule one, but it involves acid rather than acidifying foods. Eating fruits and yogurt exclusively or drinking only whey-based beverages is strongly discouraged, as the acid intake from such a diet is not compensated by any alkaline food, which forces the body to draw these substances from its own tissues. The risk of health problems caused by mineral depletion is therefore quite significant. These manifest as a sudden drop in vitality, the feeling that one's teeth are on edge, a chilly sensation, itching, joint pains, and others that have been discussed previously.
Alkaline foods that are good accompaniments to fresh fruits are fresh (unripened) cheeses, soft white cheese (large-curd cottage cheese, low-fat cream cheese, ricotta, quark, mozzarella, farmer cheese, fresh goat cheese, yogurt cheese), cream, almonds, bananas, salad greens, or a blend of raw fruits and vegetables.
Rule six: The quantities of acid and acidifying foods a person eats should be tailored to meet their personal metabolic capabilities.
The inability to metabolize acids properly is rarely absolute; it varies according to individual physiology as well as circumstances (such as stress, fatigue, work, and vacations). Each person has a certain rate at which he or she can metabolize acids properly, a rate that cannot be surpassed without overtaxing the body's capacity.
As long as the quantity of acids ingested or created by the digestion of food is below these rates, the body manages to neutralize them through oxidation before any of the health problems created by acidification manifest. Accordingly, for certain extremely sensitive individuals, half a golden apple no more-suits them just fine, but even a quarter of a Winesap apple is more than they can handle. For any given person, a certain quantity of a food can be acidifying, yet alkalizing or neutral in a lesser amount.
So if you have difficulty metabolizing acids, you can safely eat acid foods as long as you tailor the amount you consume to your physical capacities. Your tolerance threshold can also change over time. You can discover and keep track of your own threshold through experimentation and observation.
Rule seven: Acid foods should not be eaten too rapidly
An individual with an inability to metabolize acids properly, but with a normal acid-alkaline balance, can generally handle a sudden increase in acid intake (from eating a large quantity of fruit, for example) by drawing from the body's reserves, provided that this kind of event is the exception and not the rule. In fact, if the withdrawal of alkaline substances from the body's reserves is a unique event, the acid-alkaline balance is not endangered, and no acidification problem will occur.
But some time will have to go by before the body's reserves are replenished. If eating another piece of fruit puts additional acids into the body too soon, it has to draw from its already diminished reserves, which may not contain enough alkaline substances to neutralize the acid from the fruit, and acid-alkaline balance is compromised. Health problems due to acidification will appear not because the body was not intrinsically capable of neutralizing this fruit's acid-it had successfully done so before-but because the fruit had been eaten too soon after the first fruit had been consumed.
By spacing out the ingestion of these hard-to-metabolize foods, you can increase your personal level of tolerance for them. This is useful to know, as it allows you to expand the selection of foods you can safely eat.
Rule eight: Acid foods must be eaten when the body is ready to receive them.
There is an Arabic proverb that says: "Oranges are like gold in the morning, silver at noon, and lead in the evening." For people with an inability to metabolize acids properly, the opposite is true. Oranges and fruits in general are harmful in the morning and much more beneficial at noon or in the evening. The reason for this is that by noon the body's "organic motor" has had the time to warm up and is turning over naturally. In fact, some people take a long time physically to wake up in the morning. The heart beats more slowly, blood pressure is low, and cellular exchanges-including oxidation-take place in slow motion. The body reaches cruising speed only after several hours of activity and a meal or two. If such a person eats fruits or drinks a glass of orange juice in the morning, not only will he or she have difficulty metabolizing the acids but, because the body is still working below its real capacity, it will have even greater trouble oxidizing acids than it normally would.
Along the same lines of reasoning, acids foods are metabolized better in the summer, when the weather is hot and sunny, as well as when one is rested (as opposed to feeling tired).

Ice Cream Stop Put East Bremerton Murder Suspect Back in Kitsap County Jail
A stop for ice cream and a few groceries landed Darlene Marie Green back in jail on $1 million bail.
Green, 79, is accused in the June 18 shooting death of her husband, William "Bill" Green, 81. After being formally charged on June 22, she was released from jail and ordered to be confined at her Illahee home under electronic home monitoring.
Under the home-monitoring arrangement, Green was to wear a GPS ankle bracelet. A bail bonds company would monitor the bracelet and alert the Kitsap County Prosecutor's Office if she strayed outside the conditions of her release.
The release was unique, particularly due to the involvement of the prosecutor's office, according to people with experience in the criminal justice system.
"Prosecutors have a lot of other things to do," said Mary Fan, a criminal law professor at the University of Washington and former federal prosecutor in Southern California. "That's quite unusual."
It would be more common for court administrators to handle communication between a bondsman monitoring a GPS device and the court.
Kitsap County Prosecutor Russ Hauge said he was "very concerned" about the prospect of keeping tabs on the monitoring of Green.
"That's not something we're equipped to do," he said. "And ... not our obligation."
But the alleged violation occurred before the device was even attached to Green's ankle.
Green rode home from the county jail with her son, Kirt Green, on June 22. He stopped at the Red Apple Market in East Bremerton and bought her ice cream, yogurt, an apple and milk, according to Green's attorney Roger Hunko. The 79-year-old stayed behind in the car with one of her son's friends.
Then they drove home, where the defendant stayed until she had another court appearance Friday.
Other members of Green's family, after hearing of the stop at Red Apple, reported it to the prosecutor's office. She was called back into court Friday so prosecutors could argue that her release should be revoked.
Making the stop at all, instead of going straight home, violated the terms of her release, deputy prosecutor Kelly Montgomery said.
Hunko countered in court documents: "There is no change in the circumstances surrounding her release and this motion is taken in bad faith," he wrote.
Kitsap County Superior Court Judge Anna Laurie, who let her go home in the first place, sided with prosecutors in bringing her back in.
Hunko pointed out that taxpayers will be on the hook for her stay at the Kitsap County jail and her trips for treatment of undisclosed medical problems.
"Based on just stopping for ice cream, she's back in custody on $1 million bail," Hunko said.
It's rare for defendants in murder cases to be released at all, according to Louis Frantz, a supervisor in King County's public defense office.
Judges must consider a variety of factors when setting bail, including whether a defendant is a risk to the community and whether a defendant may try to flee or tamper with evidence.
Hunko said under that the law, there was no reason to keep her in custody. She didn't have any previous convictions — charges for pushing and slapping her husband in 2006 were eventually dismissed in 2009 because she complied with a prosecutor's agreement — nor any failures to appear in court.
Hunko recommended electronic home monitoring, and Laurie obliged, but added the unusual condition of the involvement of the prosecutor's office.
A judge must make the decision based on the facts of each case before them, Frantz said.
"Release on a homicide is not common," he said. "What's also unusual is a 79-year-old woman charged with the murder of her husband."

In a speech yesterday to Latino activists, Barack Obama unveiled a tax credit to encourage small firms to buy health insurance for employees. "My plan won't impose any new burdens on small businesses," he told the audience at the National Council of La Raza. "Instead, we'll help them not just create new jobs, but good jobs -- jobs with health care; jobs that stay right here in America; the kind of jobs we need in our communities."
The proposal, elaborated in a conference call with reporters by the campaign's Economic Policy Adviser, Jason Furman, would provide small firms with a 50 percent tax credit against the cost of employee premiums. To receive it, a company would have to buy a "quality" plan and shoulder a "meaningful share" of the premium burden. The credit, like most of Obama's tax initiatives, would be fully refundable, meaning that it's not limited to the firm's tax liability -- the IRS would send out a check for the excess.
The credit would begin to phase out for middle-sized businesses, as well for firms that employ a high-income workforce. The campaign has not defined those thresholds yet, but Furman said they would be calibrated to limiting the proposal's cost to the government at $6 billion a year. To pay for the credit, Furman said that Obama would reduce federal spending on prescription drugs by creating a pathway to marketing generic biological drugs, a new, rapidly growing, and expensive treatment for illnesses like cancer and arthritis. As a back-up, Obama would deflect some of the savings in Medicare and Medicaid brought about by a reformed insurance system. "The fact that we have subsidies in the health plan actually makes it less expensive to add this small business tax credit on top of it," said Furman. "Some of the subsidies we had already budgeted that were going to individuals will instead flow through the small business."
In his speech, Obama noted that a small business tax credit was championed early on by "my friend Hillary Clinton, who's been leading the way in our battle to insure every American," which led one reporter on the call to wonder aloud, rather fruitlessly, why Obama didn't propose it himself last year. (And prompted others to speculate on Clinton's role in the campaign going forward. Might she be in the running for -- dare we say -- vice president?) But there's no doubt that any comprehensive reform of health insurance must address small businesses. As Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), chair of the House Small Business Committee, noted in the conference call, three-fifths of the 48 million Americans without insurance are either small business owners, their families, or their employees. Entrepreneurs often must pick between "skyrocketing health care costs or using that money to invest in their businesses, expand their business and create jobs," she said. "If they choose to pay the high cost of health care, then they might have to reduce investment."
As Obama stressed in his speech, this initiative doesn't require any company would be required to offer health insurance. However, the campaign's initial health proposal (detailed pdf here), formulated last year, includes a play-or-pay provision -- firms that don't buy "meaningful" (there's that word again) coverage would have to contribute a percentage of their payroll to help finance a national public insurance plan that would be open to anyone. Now Obama has added a carrot to his stick.
To my taste, the carrot may be a bit too sweet -- for the insurance companies. In the 2007 program, people who need help buying insurance would get subsidies to purchase it through an "exchange" that would include the public plan and any private plans that are just as generous and which don't discriminate against sicker enrollees. But the small business credit announced yesterday isn't limited to those plans--any "quality" health insurance plan is eligible. So wouldn't the credit amount to a transfer of wealth from taxpayers to insurers who profit from treating small group pools differently from large group pools?
Furman didn't think so. When I put the question to him, he said, "This is a complement to the broader set of proposals." One of these would reinsure an employer's costs for catastrophic care." That is disproportionately beneficial to small businesses, because part of why they pay such high premiums today is the risk of just one really sick employee if you only have a pool of ten is quite high. And Senator Obama is committed to a sound regulatory structure for insurance markets, and that would complement it as well."

|Addressing concerns about cisplatin application during pregnancy.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21391877 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Abstract Introduction: Cervical cancer in second trimester of pregnancy is an oncologic challenge. Cisplatin is recommended to prevent cancer progression. This is a series correlating in vivo cisplatin concentration in the fetomaternal compartment and in breast milk with child development. Methods: Eight consecutive patients with cervical cancer diagnosed during the second trimester underwent conization/biopsy and/or pelvic laparoscopic lymphadenectomy (LAE). Delay of pregnancy in combination with neoadjuvant monochemotherapy was performed. After 2-4 cycles of cisplatin monochemotherapy cesarean section followed by radical hysterectomy was performed above 31 weeks of gestation. Synchronous samples from maternal blood, umbilical cord blood, and amniotic fluid were taken and analyzed. A probe of breast milk was taken from three patients. Pediatric aftercare was done every three months postpartum. Results: Laparoscopic LAE was uncomplicated in all patients. In seven out of eight patients lymph nodes were tumor free. Nine healthy babies were delivered. Pediatric follow-up showed normal development. Cisplatin concentrations in the umbilical cord and amniotic fluid were 31-65% and 13-42% of the amount in maternal blood, respectively. In breast milk, cisplatin was detectable in 1-10% of maternal blood concentration. Conclusion: Knowledge of significant lower cisplatin concentrations in fetal compartment and normal child growth provides additional security to apply cisplatin in pregnancy. Breastfeeding cannot be recommended.

St. Clair County Community Mental Health; St. Clair County Health Departments; Economic Development Alliance; and Port Huron, St. John River District and St. Joseph Mercy Hospitals Join to Highlight the Need for Medicaid Expansion
Port Huron, MI…For the first time in St. Clair County, a Community Forum on Medicaid Expansion is being scheduled to highlight the necessity for Medicaid Expansion across the state of Michigan. In the very near future, Michigan legislators will have the opportunity to make an important decision that will ultimately benefit patients, businesses, hospitals, public health, the local economy and the Michigan budget. This forum is designed to inform community residents, business leaders and legislators of the importance of Medicaid expansion on behalf of the community.
This event will feature a panel discussion including community leaders such as: Dan Casey, Executive Director, Economic Development Alliance of St. Clair County; Jeff Bohm, Chair, St. Clair County Board of Commissioners; Annette Mercatante, MD, MPH, Medical Health Officer, St. Clair County Health Department; Robert Camara, DO, Chief Medical Officer, St. Joseph Mercy Hospital and Medical Director, Peoples' Clinic for Better Health; and Debra Johnson, Executive Director, St. Clair County Community Mental Health. In addition, executive leadership including Tom DeFauw, President & CEO, Port Huron Hospital; Frank Poma, President, St. John River District Hospital; and Rebekah Smith, RN, President & CEO, St. Joseph Mercy Hospital will be on hand as will representatives from Sanilac County Community Mental Health and other agencies.
As the state budget process moves forward, it is becoming more and more apparent that failing to accept federal support to provide health insurance for an estimated 450,000 Michigan adults – including 11,000 individuals in St. Clair and Sanilac counties alone – will have serious consequences to our local economy.
Business leaders across Michigan – including the Small Business Association of Michigan and the Detroit Regional Chamber of Commerce – are quick to point out that Medicaid reform and expansion can help slow increasing insurance premiums paid by Michigan employers by reducing uncompensated care in Michigan hospitals, which imposes a hidden tax of about $1,000 per family through higher health insurance premiums.
The legislature's failure to reach agreeance around reforming and expanding Medicaid will mean:
In addition to the effects on meeting physical and mental health access needs of the residents of Michigan, failure to enact Medicaid expansion leaves employers exposed to higher "shared responsibility" payments under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). In a broader scale, according to the Jackson Hewitt Tax Service, Inc., the associated costs to employers could total $876 million to $1.3 billion each year in the 22 states that have opposed, are leaning against, or remain undecided about expanding Medicaid. For example, the decision of Texas to forgo Medicaid expansion may increase federal tax penalties on Texas employers by $299 to $448 million each year.
To help the community and state legislators better understand the importance of Medicaid expansion to our area, a Community Forum on Medicaid Expansion, will be held Wednesday, May 1, 2013, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, 2601 Electric Avenue, Port Huron, MI.
To learn more about Medicaid Expansion, visit www.expandmedicaid.com. There you will find useful information on the importance of this expansion as well as information on how to contact your legislator.

Do you use DAO-level hand in hand with DTO?
Is this Room object really a DTO?
I don't see actually the Room class
You can create some text file to tune collaboration of your program and DB. Maybe is should be some kind of ResourceBundle with structure:
Hardcoding always lacks flexibility.
Anne Crace wrote:I hardcoded column names. I think it's more intuitive to the user, and also added a Record Number column, for the same reason. My table looks a bit more like a real database. I documented this in my choices.txt.
Roel De Nijs wrote:
My solution provided a dynamic read of the database schema:
If a column is made bigger or smaller, it can be done without changing anything in the code (although that's not exactly true, because in the gui I used hard-coded values instead of using the information from the database-schema). I documented that (using database-schema in the gui) as outside the scope of this assignment.
If a column is added or removed, the only thing you have to change is the conversion method between my transfer-object and String[] (and vice versa). And of course also the GUI if the new field should be visible for the user.
Roel De Nijs wrote:
I'll try to answer your question as good as I can:
Bob Wheeler wrote:
I use a Room Cache, a Map<Integer, Room>, in the db layer to cache all records from the db. So I can only use the entries I have in my Room object, which is actually my DTO.
I have a Service class with bookRoom and findRoom, which creates or takes a room object. So yes, I think I can call it a DTO. But I also use my "DTO" as part of the room cache.
Ehsan Rahman wrote:
If I understand correctly, the data file records have been cached in terms of Room DTOs. Just out of curiosity, are data file records (of type String[]) also being cached in order for the public int [] find(String [] criteria) {} interface contract to still hold?
Ehsan Rahman wrote:
Re Hardcoding vs. Flexibility: I think that providing flexibility in the data layer in terms of extraction isn't difficult and the customer might appreciate this for a new field they want to display. However it is hard to know if the customer would always want a new field's data to be sent and displayed to clients (e.g. meta-data), so it might be better to keep such code fixed and readable for configuration.
Bob Wheeler wrote:
If I need a String array, I call a converter method on the room object. So no need for a second cache.

It's the Year of the Wildflower!
Whether it's the first time reading one of my blog entries or you're a devout follower, anytime the topic of "Wildflowers" comes up in the gardening community, the Seed Man gets excited. So you can image how ecstatic I felt when the National Garden Bureau declared 2013 "The Year of the Wildflower!"
Each year, a number of garden professionals get together and select one flower, one vegetable and one perennial to be showcased during the upcoming year. It seems fitting that wildflowers were chosen this year on the heels of the Lady Bird Johnson – "Plant for more Beautiful" commemorative stamps that were released by the USPS in November 2012. If you haven't seen them yet, I would highly recommend taking a look. As we all know shewas a true pioneer to the wildflower movement in the US.
"My heart found its home long ago in the beauty, mystery, order and disorder of the flowering earth. I wanted future generations to be able to savor what I had all my life." – Lady Bird Johnson, 2002
So if you're been thinking about a wildflower planting but thought it was too much work, this is the year to plant! You don't need a large area. Find a sunny spot in the corner of your garden and plant it with wildflowers this spring and I guarantee you won't be disappointed!
Happy Gardening! – The Seed Man

Re: Borg
The only reason I brought in the Ferrengi is because they would be the most likely to help the Borg organize some sort of cult, if it were profitable, and not worry about things like the Borg increasing their numbers until they could once again try and assimilate all intelligent life. On the other hand, the Dominion might work better. The Ferrengi might just get themselves exterminated.
I agree that defeating the Borg shouldn't have been so easy, but we have to start with what went before, and only a few scattered ships being left. Or do we?

Pull out those chimney brooms. Firefighters are warning residents to clean up their chimneys before a fire can ignite. The message comes after two chimney fires this weekend.
The first occurred at the Paradise Valley Mobile Home Park office around 10 p.m. Saturday night. Nineteen firefighting crew members were on scene to fight the flames that broke out around the chimney area.
No one was injured in the fire, and the exact cause is still under investigation at this time.
The second fire flared up at a home located at 176 Little Park Drive. Seven units attended to the fire around 8:30 Sunday morning. The first unit on scene was able to deploy a hose, clear the smoke and cool the high temperatures around the fireplace area.
Two people were in the home when the fire ignited, but they were able to escape with pets in tow and no injuries.
The fire and damage were considered moderate and were contained to the fireplace area and ceiling above.
The GJFD says it sees an increase in the fireplace/chimney fires. It says it's important to maintain and clean chimneys to prevent fuel buildup that could spread the fire.

"The material covered in LSSU's engineering program provided me a solid foundation for graduate studies. The systematic approach and communication skills needed to tackle engineering projects were taught and then practiced over and over again. In particular I appreciate the many hours spent by the faculty to develop oral presentation skills in each student. As a graduate student now, these skills have proven to be highly beneficial and, to my surprise, obviously not taught to the same extent at many other universities."

|Agroterrorism. Agricultural infrastructure vulnerability.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 10681987 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The intentional contamination of animal feed to reduce the availability of animal-derived human food or to infect human populations is seldom mentioned, but animal feed could be an easy target for bioterrorists. The period of delay between the contamination of the animal feed and adulteration of the human food product provides an additional degree of uncertainty about the source of the contamination and minimizes the possibility of apprehending the terrorist. The less obvious and more natural the source of biological contamination, the greater the likelihood that the animal feed contamination will be mistaken as a natural phenomenon. However, the problems related to managing natural food contamination and intentional food contamination remain the same. Rapid testing and separation of contaminated feed are important steps, followed by the more specific identification of the contaminant to determine the source of adulteration and/or the possibility of decontamination. At this time identification of the bioagents is dependent on the availability of antibody-specific test systems. The rapid development of specific antibodies for the development of sensitive and specific test kits is the key to identifying contamination and dealing effectively with the disposal or decontamination of the animal feed and, ultimately, preventing the contamination of animal-derived human food products.

Senate shoots down Mike Lee's border security amendment
Washington • The Senate rejected Sen. Mike Lee's amendment Wednesday that would require Congress to vote on a border security plan and its implementation before undocumented immigrants could proceed on a path to citizenship.
Lee, R-Utah, pitched his amendment to the Senate immigration bill as a way for Congress to ensure that the border is secured to its satisfaction, while Democrats said it was a way for reform opponents to end the legalization program before it begins.
The Senate Judiciary Committee also rejected Lee's idea when it debated the legislation in May, a move made "because we did not want to make the legalization program inappropriately subject to partisan disputes," said committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.
Lee argued that without his amendment, the Obama administration could deem the border security requirement met with little additional effort.
"If we cut out Congress, we are cutting out the right of the American people to be heard on this issue," he said. "And the right of the American people to decide when and under what circumstances it is OK to continue the pathway to citizenship."
His amendment, one of 10 voted on Wednesday, would have needed 60 votes to pass. It received only 39.


text: Hey gang, So maybe we should ask for sysadmin volunteers since whatever we do someone will have to take care of the system. It can be fun, it's an opportunity to learn a skill that you could put on your resume, and it's a way to serve the EMS community. There are two other members who have root access right now, but I get the feeling that they probably don't want to be admins since I've asked around a couple of times before.

News & Opinions
The latest news and insights from Hanley Wood's outspoken experts and key thought-leaders throughout the residential and commercial design and construction industry.
What's New About Serving Customers (and What's Not)
Micah Solomon / Harvard Business Review / December 10, 2012
Marshall Plympton* is the owner of an "eclectic American" restaurant with forty-seven reviews on Yelp, and the majority are pretty positive. Marshall, however, responds to even the smallest online slight or constructive criticism with outrage. For example:
If any other jerks like "Jjhamie319" are thinking of coming to my restaurant, listen up: DON'T. I have enough work serving the rest of you people without this kind of grief.
Marshall doesn't need this article. He needs a new line of work, far away from customers. But smart business owners and their service reps realize the landscape in which customers operate has shifted — and that profoundly redefines what good (and bad) customer service means.
Here are some ways in which customers have changed that will profoundly impact how you deal with them.

Questions can be about anything….child rearing, husband stuff, how to maintain your "hotness" after kids. Whatever. Just don't ask me about money, how to get stains out of shit or why my dog is so annoying. The answers are…I have no idea, I have no idea and he's an asshole. Otherwise,…I'm wide open. Ask me anything. firstname.lastname@example.com Dear Child Questions… Has your child asked you a question that you are unsure how to answer? A question that makes you uncomfortable or that you are sure will make them feel bad if they knew the real answer? Send the questions to me. I'll answer them for you. It won't be nice….but it will be funny. Send me your childs' uncomfortable question at email@example.com MEN!!!! This is your chance!!!
Do you just want to vent? Do you have something to say and your wife won't shut up long enough to listen? I will!! If you have a gripe, comment or long ranting essay that you would like all women to know about on behalf of all men out there….send it to me. If you're funny…I'll post it and send you a fancy shirt that will make women think you are hot and that you have a big penis. E-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com Show Guests Do you know of someone that should be on my show? Are you interesting? Would you like to nominate someone you know to be on the show? We are looking for interesting or extremely boring people to be on the show. Either one is fine.

Tell us about you, why you should be on the show or what you are planning on teaching me. The weirder the better. firstname.lastname@example.com Hot Guys
If you are hot and just want to send me a pic of you that would be fine. I've been married for a long time and I would appreciate any attention at all.

I'll send you a shirt and maybe some other free stuff but that's it. I can use it for a funny book or a tv show. Anything really…and not pay you anything but a shirt.

Corporations/ Product Reviews/ Giveaways Are you a corporation that wants to work with me? Do you want me to review your product or give me something for free? I'm in. We love corporations. Well, not all of them but most of them. Truthfully, mostly just Kohls but I'll definitely consider your corporation. As for reviews….I'll do them but mostly with old people and babies. They are the most honest people. They really just want to eat, sleep and tell you exactly what they think of you. I only know I have a big nose, a big butt and that a "nice boy would love to be married to me" because of kids and old people. If that works for you contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com

The velocity observed at the macroscopic scale is actually a weighted mean of the velocities of many discrete particles of differing masses. The deviations of the velocities of the discrete particles from the mean can be considered essentially as random, but their statistics determine the thermal state of the fluid.
Consider an arbitrary fixed surface A in the fluid. The mass flowing through this surface per unit time will be denoted by T. It is now asserted that there exists a vector function such that
where is a unit normal to the surface. Strictly speaking, T represents the most probable mass transport through A at the instant t. If the surface A is closed so as to contain a finite volume V, then T is the net mass transport into or out of the volume V at time t. If we take as the outward unit normal to the closed surface A then (1) yields the net outward mass transport (i.e., if the integral is positive, T is outward; if the integral is negative, T is inward).
Equation (1) will be regarded essentially as the definition of the fluid velocity vector . As can be seen, it is dependent upon the definition of the density function given by Eq. (12) of Art. 3.03.

An ode to "Clueless"
"Hey you. Anything happens to my daughter, I got a forty-five and a shovel. I doubt anybody would miss you." - Cher's father
I love Clueless. I'm watching for at least the third time. I don't know what happened to Alicia Silverstone's career, but I guess that after her shine as Cher in Clueless, it could only go down, for she was ab fab. Pretty, and funny, and absolutely perfect as the spoiled bubblehead Beverly Hills teen girl, but somehow anyway sort of street smart and really likeable. An outstanding performance.

Survey Shows U.S. Organizations Need More Improvement To Counter Cybercriminals
Despite a surge in both the number of detected cybersecurity incidents and the financial costs associated with such breaches, a new report shows that U.S. organizations lack the necessary defenses to effectively counter evolving cybersecurity threats.
The 2014 U.S. State of Cybercrime Survey outlines significant shortcomings that leave organizations lagging behind their criminal counterparts. PricewaterhouseCoopers, CSO Magazine, the U.S. Secret Service and the CERT Division of the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University co-sponsored the survey.
Below are some of the survey's key findings based on data collected from more than 500 executives from U.S. businesses, law enforcement and government agencies.
Heightened Concern about Cybersecurity Threats
Organizations are clearly aware of the security threats posed by technology, with 59% of respondents indicating they are more concerned about cybersecurity this year than in the past. This may be in response to an increase in information-security incidents — both in the headlines and experienced first-hand. More than three in four respondents have experienced a data breach in the last year; 34 % have detected more security incidents in the last 12 months than in the previous year.
Organizations not Properly Prioritizing and Investing in Cybersecurity
While organizations have serious concerns about cybercrime threats, 38% of respondents omit a key step in implementing an effective cybersecurity program by not prioritizing cybersecurity investments based on their individual risk. In particular, many organizations are not properly investing in the people and processes that would allow them to rapidly respond to and mitigate incidents. Researchers noted that organizations should carefully allocate their spending based on their particular industry, geography, key assets and other factors, and design cybersecurity programs with enough flexibility and agility to enable a quick response to evolving and multiplying threats. Consequently, organizations should place emphasis not only on preventing attacks, but detecting and responding to them to minimize their impact.
Insider Threats not Adequately Addressed
Some 28% of respondents reported attacks by insiders, and 32% indicated that these were more costly and damaging than outside attacks. Yet less than half (49%) of those surveyed have a plan in place to safeguard against and respond to attacks from employees and other inside sources.
Collaboration and NIST Cybersecurity Framework Can Enhance Effectiveness
The report highlights two ways organizations can more effectively deal with cybercriminals: collaboration and the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework. The report illustrates the value of collaboration by pointing to data from a separate cybersecurity survey in which 82% of companies with high-performing security practices actively worked with others to increase their knowledge about security measures and threat trends. Additionally, while highlighting the benefits of the NIST framework's voluntary, proactive risk-management approach to managing and mitigating cybersecurity risks, the report found that the vast majority of respondents' cybersecurity programs fell far short of NIST's standards.
The report concludes by urging organizations to adopt the NIST framework to help improve their cybersecurity programs and possibly stem regulatory violations and other liability. Whatever the approach, organizations need to implement information security training as an important step in safeguarding against criminals and their evolving techniques and methods. Thomson Reuters' online training courses on U.S. Data Privacy and Security and Information Security help employees understand the specific measures needed to protect personal and business information against theft and other misuse. Online compliance training is an effective way to provide employees with the tools they need to protect data and detect potential threats before information can be compromised.Categories: Data Privacy & Security

Linda Levy, Assistant Director for Branch Library and Database Services, retired on December 31 following 20 years of service to the Health Science Center. Linda began working at the UT Health Science Center Library in 1991 as an Information Services Librarian. She managed the library's literature search services, including instruction in effective literature search techniques. In 1998 she began managing the branch library at the Robert B. Green Campus, and in 2007 she became responsible for supervising the new branch library at the Laredo Regional Campus. Linda was active in library outreach services in Laredo and San Antonio including managing several successful outreach grants. Linda also was a member of several campus committees including the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee, the Institutional Review Board, the School of Nursing Committee on Graduate Studies (COGS), and the Program Committee of the annual Summer Institute on Evidence-Based Practice. In 2010, Linda was named to the Health Science Center's Academy of Master Teachers. She has served on several committees for the Medical Library Association and the South Central Chapter of the Medical Library Association and has presented at numerous professional meetings. She is an emeritus member of the Academy of Health Information Professionals (AHIP).
Linda plans to spend her retirement as an active volunteer for several organizations in San Antonio, and she plans to continue to enjoy her children (and hopefully grandchildren) in Chicago. We wish Linda the best as she embarks on her well-deserved retirement and we express our gratitude for her many years of dedication to Health Science Center faculty, students and staff and the profession of librarianship.
