The Afghan War Diary (AWD for short) consists of messages from several important US military communications systems. The messaging systems have changed over time; as such reporting standards and message format have changed as well. This reading guide tries to provide some helpful hints on interpretation and understanding of the messages contained in the AWD.
Most of the messages follow a pre-set structure that is designed to make automated processing of the contents easier. It is best to think of the messages in the terms of an overall collective logbook of the Afghan war. The AWD contains the relevant events, occurrences and intelligence experiences of the military, shared among many recipients. The basic idea is that all the messages taken together should provide a full picture of a days important events, intelligence, warnings, and other statistics. Each unit, outpost, convoy, or other military action generates report about relevant daily events. The range of topics is rather wide: Improvised Explosives Devices encountered, offensive operations, taking enemy fire, engagement with possible hostile forces, talking with village elders, numbers of wounded, dead, and detained, kidnappings, broader intelligence information and explicit threat warnings from intercepted radio communications, local informers or the afghan police. It also includes day to day complaints about lack of equipment and supplies.
The description of events in the messages is often rather short and terse. To grasp the reporting style, it is helpful to understand the conditions under which the messages are composed and sent. Often they come from field units who have been under fire or under other stressful conditions all day and see the report-writing as nasty paperwork, that needs to be completed with little apparent benefit to expect. So the reporting is kept to the necessary minimum, with as little type-work as possible. The field units also need to expect questions from higher up or disciplinary measures for events recorded in the messages, so they will tend to gloss over violations of rules of engagement and other problematic behavior; the reports are often detailed when discussing actions or interactions by enemy forces. Once it is in the AWD messages, it is officially part of the record - it is subject to analysis and scrutiny. The truthfulness and completeness especially of descriptions of events must always be carefully considered. Circumstances that completely change the meaning of an reported event may have been omitted.
The reports need to answer the critical questions: Who, When, Where, What, With whom, by what Means and Why. The AWD messages are not addressed to individuals but to groups of recipients that are fulfilling certain functions, such as duty officers in a certain region. The systems where the messages originate perform distribution based on criteria like region, classification level and other information. The goal of distribution is to provide those with access and the need to know, all of the information that relevant to their duties. In practice, this seems to be working imperfectly. The messages contain geo-location information in the forms of latitude-longitude, military grid coordinates and region.
The messages contain a large number of abbreviations that are essential to understanding its contents. When browsing through the messages, underlined abbreviations pop up an little explanation, when the mouse is hovering over it. The meanings and use of some shorthands have changed over time, others are sometimes ambiguous or have several meanings that are used depending on context, region or reporting unit. If you discover the meaning of a so far unresolved acronym or abbreviations, or if you have corrections, please submit them to firstname.lastname@example.com.
An especially helpful reference to names of military units and task-forces and their respective responsibilities can be found at http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/enduring-freedom.htm
The site also contains a list of bases, airfields http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/afghanistan.htm Location names are also often shortened to three-character acronyms.
Messages may contain date and time information. Dates are mostly presented in either US numeric form (Year-Month-Day, e.g. 2009-09-04) or various Euro-style shorthands (Day-Month-Year, e.g. 2 Jan 04 or 02-Jan-04 or 2jan04 etc.).
Times are frequently noted with a time-zone identifier behind the time, e.g. "09:32Z". Most common are Z (Zulu Time, aka. UTC time zone), D (Delta Time, aka. UTC + 4 hours) and B (Bravo Time, aka UTC + 2 hours). A full list off time zones can be found here: http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/military/
Other times are noted without any time zone identifier at all. The Afghanistan time zone is AFT (UTC + 4:30), which may complicate things further if you are looking up messages based on local time.
Finding messages relating to known events may be complicated by date and time zone shifting; if the event is in the night or early morning, it may cause a report to appear to be be misfiled. It is advisable to always look through messages before and on the proceeding day for any event.

Position: Jingle Truck Driver
Village: Zoorkally
G. Disposition of local security: Route Trans AM east of Mangritay is red due to recent attacks on CF.
H. Atmospherics: (reception of HCA, reactions to ANSF and Coalition forces, etc): Speaking with the individuals that we searched at our VCPs they were unhappy with CF. They were upset because we were searching and having them empty their jingle trucks if filled with wood or other items. In addition they were going to complain to the ABP to see what could be done.
I. Conclusion and Recommendation
Mission accomplished- On or about 200400ZAPR07 2nd Platoon Team Blackhawk departed FOB Bermel to conduct VCPs in vicinity of Route Trans AM to disrupt enemy operations in vicinity of Rakhah Ridge. We traveled northeast until we reached vicinity of WB 3259 1403. Once there I conducted a battle handover with the Destroyer Platoon and assumed control of the VCP. At approximately 201050ZAPR07 we re-located to vicinity of WB 3305 1455 and established a new VCP. In addition I established a dismounted OP at WB 3262 1430. Once we were no longer receiving any type of traffic we established a mounted OP at WB 3243 1411 at or about 201500ZAPR07 to over watch Route Trans AM. Throughout the day we had stopped a total of 48 jingle trucks. At approximately 210500ZAPR07 we conducted link-up with 3rd Platoon Blackhawk in order to conduct penetration operations on Route Trans AM in vicinity of OBJs Hippo and Wolf. We traveled to the vicinity of WB 3981 1560 in which we provided over watch and security to allow the ANA to search a mosque and the surrounding area for any signs of enemy activity. After the ANA had completed their search we traveled to OBJ Wolf in vicinity of WB 375 134 to establish a VCP. Due to no vehicle or foot traffic we broke down the VCP at approximately 211030ZAPR07 and return to the village of Sharqi Mangritay. Once back at Sharqi Mangritay vicinity of WB 3305 1457 we conducted a search of the village and the surrounding high grounds. From our search nothing was discovered. At approximately 211200ZAPR07 3rd Platoon Blackhawk returned to FOB Bermel as we established a VCP at our current location. While at our VCP we stopped one hilux truck and 1 camel. Once it became completely dark we re-located to vicinity of WB 3244 1412 and remained there for the night. At approximately 220200ZAPR07 we established our VCP at our current location. At or around 221100ZAPR07 we re-located to vicinity of WB 3305 1456 and established a dismounted OP at WB 3263 1431. While at our VCPs we stopped a total of 1 jingle truck. The driver of this jingle truck informed us the reason why we were not receiving any jingle trucks through our VCPs was because the jingle truck drivers were upset that we were searching and emptying their trucks. In addition they were going to complain to the ABP. At approximately 221535ZAPR07 we returned to FOB Bermel. Nothing further to report.

26 May 2009Product news
Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management solutions, announces the release of Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0, designed to protect smartphones from all types of IT threats as well as confidential data leaks from lost or stolen devices.
The new version of Kaspersky Mobile Security is unrivalled in terms of cutting-edge technologies, providing an unprecedented level of protection against the wide range of threats facing smartphone users.
For instance, SMS-Find can locate the exact whereabouts of a lost smartphone (for devices with GPS). After sending an SMS with a password to the lost device, the user receives a link to Google Maps containing its exact coordinates.
The Anti-theft module of Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0 makes it possible for the owner of a lost or stolen smartphone to remotely block access to or completely wipe the memory of the device by simply sending a codeword via SMS to his/her number.
If the SIM card is removed from a lost or stolen phone, the SIM Watch module in Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0 sends a hidden message notifying the owner of the new number. This function ensures the owner can delete data from or block the smartphone no matter what the circumstances. Moreover, law enforcement agencies can use the new number to track down the stolen device and return it to its rightful owner.
Give sensitive and confidential information on your phone an added level of security. Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0 provides a safe-folder within the smartphone whose contents are permanently encrypted and only accessible with a user-defined password. When the password is entered the folder will remain accessible to enhance usability until KMS detects a period of inactivity.
The parental control component – new to Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0 – enables parents to restrict the sending and receiving of messages to a child's phone (e.g., premium rate numbers, adult content services, etc.). The solution's SMS-Find function also allows parents to locate their children if their smartphones have GPS.
Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0 also includes an improved Anti-spam module. The spam filter not only blocks unsolicited messages but also calls, protecting users from fraudsters and obtrusive advertising. The new version of Kaspersky Mobile Security can function in whitelist mode (only accepting calls and messages from specified contacts) or in blacklist mode (accepting calls and messages from all numbers except those in the list).
The Antivirus scanner is still best of its kind. As well as automatically scanning all incoming and modified objects, it performs on-demand scans of the device. All malicious objects can be deleted or stored in quarantine. Regular updates of the antivirus databases via various channels, including synchronization with a PC, ensure that new malicious programs are detected and deleted effectively.
The integrated firewall in Kaspersky Mobile Security 8.0 also prevents attacks by hackers and mobile worms that spread via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections.
The new Kaspersky Lab application offering protection for smartphones was developed with all the compatibility requirements for Symbian OS 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and Windows Mobile 5.0, 6.0, 6.1 in mind.
Kaspersky Lab is the largest antivirus company in Europe. It delivers some of the world's most immediate protection against IT security threats, including viruses, spyware, crimeware, hackers, phishing, and spam. The Company is ranked among the world's top four vendors of security solutions for endpoint users. Kaspersky Lab products provide superior detection rates and one of the industry's fastest outbreak response times for home users, SMBs, large enterprises and the mobile computing environment. Kaspersky® technology is also used worldwide inside the products and services of the industry's leading IT security solution providers. Learn more at .

Review of Doctor Who 'An Unearthly Child' (Series 1)
In the run up to the 50th anniversary of 'Doctor Who' in November 2013, Neela Debnath, with the help of BBC DVD, will be writing a review focusing on one story from each of the previous 31 series of the show. Each review will offer readers a snapshot from every series of 'Doctor Who' and celebrate the longest-running science fiction television programme in the world.
The date is the 23rd November 1963, the time is 5.15pm and JFK has been assassinated the day before. The tragedy has plunged the world into global mourning and there is a growing sense of fear that the planet is teetering on the brink of nuclear war – it is of course the middle of the Cold War. Despite this major historical event casting a long shadow over everything else, a British science fiction television show makes its humble debut.
The first ever 'Doctor Who' story was a four-part serial entitled 'An Unearthly Child' and introduced audiences to the kooky Susan Foreman (Carole Ann Ford) and her gruff grandfather (William Hartnell), known only as the 'Doctor'. The plot revolved around Susan's teachers Ian Chesterton (William Russell) and Barbara Wright (Jacqueline Hill) accidentally stumbling onto the TARDIS and being whisked away on a prehistoric adventure.
From a science fiction perspective, it seems like a strange choice to go back in time rather than forward or to an alien planet, given that the TARDIS can go anywhere in time and space. Yet it is by no means a dull story considering that the Doctor is kidnapped and forced to make fire for a tribe of cave people. His companions are also captured during their attempts to find him and the serial becomes an examination into human nature and the psyche of primitive man. The formula of the story is the original mould which the majority of 'Doctor Who' stories follow, whereby the Doctor turns up somewhere and unwittingly walks into trouble.
The importance of 'An Unearthly Child' is that it establishes the characters and how they react when placed in challenging situations. The most notable thing about the first Doctor is that he is not likeable, just like the grouchy grandfather you wouldn't want to visit on a regular basis. He may be searingly brilliant but he lacks any sort of warmth or compassion. Far from being a time meddler, in 'An Unearthly Child' he is more than happy to leave others behind to suffer alone in their plight. Hartnell's Doctor did thaw later on but here he is very alien and does not have the human qualities of later Doctors, he is certainly not amicable or jovial. Due to Hartnell's age there were also physical limits on his capabilities and at times he comes across as frail and tired but this is all part of his Doctor.
Instead it is Susan who seems to be closer in character to the more recent Doctors. She is highly intelligent and exudes a wealth of knowledge. Although she may be an alien, she is very human and sympathetic towards others. The only annoying thing about her is that she descends into screaming hysterics a little too often. Given that she was born on a different world and has travelled with the Doctor, would she not have seen more than the average 15-year-old? Then again, she is very much like other heroines of the time who vocalised their fear frequently.
Every work of science fiction is a product of its time and it is clear from this story that the writer, Anthony Coburn, has drawn upon the unease and worry of nuclear war and radiation poisoning that existed in the 1960s. For instance, after landing the TARDIS, the Doctor checks the radiation levels before opening the doors. He even takes his Geiger counter with him when they venture out. Again, at the end of the episode, when they land on the planet Skaro, the Doctor asks Susan to check the radiation levels before they leave the ship. It is all very fitting for the era and is part of the show's appeal because it takes something from reality and adds a healthy dose of escapism to it.
Overall, 'An Unearthly Child' is an involving watch and the cliffhanger on which each episode ends genuinely does evoke curiosity as to what will happen next. There is an underlying creepiness to the whole serial and a sense of unpredictability, all of which adds to the viewing experience. The choice to go back in time, right to the beginning of human history, is an unusual one but it works and this serial lays a firm foundation for what is to come. A 'Radio Times' preview of 'Doctor Who' from 1963 surmises the show wonderfully: 'The whole cosmos in fact is their oyster'.

What do you consider a friend???
by Wes McKane
posted Aug 22 2012 7:02AM
I am FINALLY above average on something!!!! I've got the results here of a major survey on adult friendships. By that I mean friendships in adult life here are the highlights . . .
#1.) The average adult has FIVE close friends.
#2.) But . . . we have an average of 50 to 100 Facebook friends, and at least 50 numbers of friends in our phone. Still . . . just FIVE close friends.
#3.) About one in eight men and one in six women say there's at least one person in their friend group they HATE.
#4.) Women are more likely to still have a best friend from when they were in school.
of women say they have a lifelong best friend they met as a kid, versus
of men.
of women now have a real friendship with someone from their childhood they reconnected with on Facebook. Only
of men have done that.
#6.) We make about two out of five of our friends at work.

What do you consider a friend???
Please Enter Your Comments Below
Someone with whom you've shared a pound of salt
Old Lithuanian saying...implying you've known them for a while. I put this on Ally's blog too, but I want to give a shout out to a book that reminds me of your morning show...and 2 guys develop a friendship very begrudgingly in the book...one old guy who died but no doctor can be bothered to sign his death certificate and a neurotic younger guy who is being resuscitated, stuck outside his body, and the only person he can talk to is the ghost in the ER...hilarity ensues but also conversations about life. Its Room Four by AJ Knauss, dude writes awesome funny dialogue. Thanks for a great morning show!
a friend has your back!
We listen at work and share good and bad in the ER. I can have the worst day and my friends will crack me up...and the worst day in the ER is not cool. (We're not supposed to look at blogs at work, haha, keep it on the dl). But anyways we are passing around the Knauss book, it is like the love child of Nurse Jackie and Walter Matthau on an episode of Six Feet UNder, and Knauss is a chick, not a dude. Room Four is my memoirs. Love you guys (an ER nurse alwyas has your back) :)
A friend keeps it real
Er nurses of Milwaukee unite. I heard this book was on your blog. Too funny. "Room Four" is the truth, reads like a day in the life. THanks for a great show. Hope we never see you in the ER!

Parent Involvement
Detroit Service Learning Academy is implementing a plan that will motivate parents to become more involved with their school community. Studies show that schools with high parent involvement score higher in achievement areas than schools that don't. Detroit Service Learning Academy's has formed a committee that will include members of the PTO, the student activities coordinator, public relations director, staff members and administration. The purpose of the committee is to recruit parents and set goals. In order to reach the goal of producing successful students, it is important to partner with the people ultimately responsible for those students -- their parents.
Project Background
Research overwhelmingly demonstrates that parent involvement in children's learning is positively related to achievement. Furthermore, the research shows that the more intensively parents are involved in their children's learning, the more beneficial the achievement effects. Studies have found that increasing the number of active ways parents can get involved helps provide greater achievement. If parents use oral and written forms of communication with the school, as well as attend and listen during parent teacher conferences, greater achievement benefits accrue than with no parent involvement at all. However, considerably greater achievement benefits are noted when parent involvement is active - when parents work with their children at home, certainly, but also when they attend and actively support school activities and when they help out in classrooms or on field trips. The earlier in a child's educational process parent involvement begins, the more powerful the effects will be. The goal is to get parents started at the beginning of their child's academic career.
It is the goal of Detroit Service Learning Academy to approach parent and community involvement the same way we do curriculum, professional development, and other areas critical to school life. Time should be dedicated to building the student-staff relationship and parental involvement. Detroit Service Learning Academy has held seminars such as "It's Not What You Say … It's How You Say It! - 101 Ways Parents Can Help Students Achieve", "How Dads Make a Difference," and "Welcome Tips for Parent Volunteers" help to address such topics.
In addition, planning themed family nights can be of interest to the students, which will then encourage the parents. The Parent Resource Room offers free computer training to parents will help increase parent participation.

While best known for its use in the five cent coin, nickel has far more strategic uses. Nickel can be alloyed with other metals to create truly extraordinary materials. In fact, more than half of all nickel consumed is used in stainless steel.
China's stainless steel consumption has increased 1625% in the last 10 years, and is now 40% of global totals. Chinese stainless steel is now the largest demand driver for nickel worldwide, and there's still a lot more room for growth in the industry.
Nickel's diversified supply is expected to keep prices stable, so the savvy investor will look for low cost nickel projects in safe jurisdictions.

Get ready for this adorably warm movie to hit the big screens in 2015. Much loved round headed Charlie Brown, the oh-so-cute Snoopy and rest of the Peanuts gang are no more just in your comics, they have been brought to life by BlueSky Studios, the 20th Century Fox animation house. Earlier titled as Peanuts by Schulz, this movie is the first Peanuts movie to hit the theatres in three decades.
Director Steve Martino, who is very well known for his work on the movies Ice Age: Continental Drift (2012) and Horton Hears a Who! (2008) is ready to cast his magic spell on this much-awaited flick.
Peanuts is co-written and co-produced by the original comics' creator Charles M Schulz's grandson Brian Schulz and his son Craig Schulz, who have assured that they won't be hampering the characters at all, and as far as the plot of the movie is considered, it will stay true to the comics.
So, all you Peanuts lovers can rest assured that the movie will be as awesome as the comics! The teaser-trailer of this CGI animated film looks good and has got a warm response. The promo looks undoubtedly super cute and the characters look exactly like those in the comic strips.
Check out the teaser trailer of Peanuts here, and let us know what you think about it!

Derivatives seem like a flawed instrument.
The largest manipulator of silver getting caught with their pants down over something else? Nice....
He should apologize to the investors that acted based on what the Analyst's wrote after those meetings.
Don't worry...the taxpayers will bail you out for your stupidity...
Most remarkable is that the geniuses are dumping Wells Fargo after hours too, when they have no similar disclosures or problems. Simply amazing. Human stupidity will once again provide another great buying opportunity.
Jamie should fire himself today.
Death Penalty for these jokers.
Are these guys still getting paid to show up for work?
Listening to the conference call - I feel like I'm listening to a Mob boss explaining his losses to the "family"... I'm "sorry" please forgive me!... followed by a sniff... Very unprofessional vague "answers" ... Things could get better OR worse... LOL What a joke !
Too bad Dimond isn't giving it from jail.
Dimon is one of the finest on wall street.
It's great that he's the one to deal with this.
Time to get ready to buy some shares.
It's a bit scary in that JPM is supposed to "the best of the best". It's essential that Mr. Dimon addresses this issue at once, but where does this leave the average American investor trying to assess the integrity of the companies they invest in? It all seems way too complicated and dangerous.
Hey Jamie, any comment on JPM's continued manipulation of the Silver market?
" ,,move on ..." sounds more like running away as fast as possible and throwing smoke screens to deter those who would want to get down to the nitty gritty to ensure nothing like this happens again...
moving on could also mean to" fix it forget it and repeat it (the mistake) " ... hey as long as they get their bonuses come losses or profits ... and don't let regulators get on their backs why should they care
Wonder if this will affect upper-management bonuses? Can't keep straight face....must try not to laugh...keep it together...
So how does Bernanke save the Robber Barons this time?
Business as usual for the too big to change broker-dealers.....wait for it.....let's have another crash, maybe they can crash through the 2009 floor this time and take the entire ship down. Thats what they are trying for with other people's money. Derivatives trading, London style, is like asking a crack addict to behave while he's on crack, not likely.
I heard "We made a mistake in one area; I don't understand why you would questions us in general"
Don't worry, the taxpayers will bail you out...
JPM needs to cease to exist. The banking system needs for the top banks including HSBC,CITI,BOA,,GS
and a few others to give it up and evaporate. Only then will the system begin to heal..
Add those in Congress and some top corporations and then maybe we have a chance.
Many are waking up and are ready for the media who are also envolved to begin to start telling the truth about everything..
this guy is so full of it - needs to resign.
awful lot of ignorance being flaunted here
One "hiccup" after all that JPMs made it through and you're screaming for Dimon to go to jail? Seems a bit absurd to me.
Maybe Jamie will now re-think his position on naked derivatives or "instruments of financial destruction"( oh but wait, they're too profitable!).
We need a strong Volcker Rule.
Does this mean they've lost even more "other people's money"?
Dimon: "It could get worse and it is going to go on for a while", but US taxpayers will bail us out and I will keep my $27M bonus.
The must be running out of victims to plunder.
Any idea where I can see a video of the conference?
No, we don't need a stronger Volcker Rule.........we need the Glass-Steagal Act back!. In spite of the fact that I have a lot of respect for Jamie.
Are these folks bankers and investors or gamblers. This company can't seem to be able
to distinguish between the two. It goes beyond stupidity to recklessness!
So a couple of days ago he was talking his book, hoping for a bounce? Seee it here ... http://money.cnn.com/video/news/2012/05/08/n-jamie-dimon-jobs.fortune/
No surprise here. America's biggest banks are all disasters waiting to fail.
Is there audio of that call?
That is one whale of a black swan.
I thought banks were supposed to DElever....Way to go Congress, 4 years after the "financial crisis" and NOTHING has changed. To Big To Fail is now bigger than ever. 5 Banks (JP, BoA, Wells, Citi, and Goldman) are all bigger and more powerful than before. They literally hold the World in their hands, and our government knows it. If the Big 5 want something done, Congress has to oblige or "they will bring down the financial system." They need to be broken down in an orderly fashion ASAP.
J.P. Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon said the bank had taken $2 billion in trading losses in the past six weeks and could face an additional $1 billion in second-quarter losses due to market volatility.
Good God, where is the regulatory organizations that should have prevented this mess. Oh, that's right, Wall Street convinced the in-their-pokets DC political people that they are so smart that they can regulate themselves.
Jamie "I am a brilliant man" Dimon said during this call that this massive loss:
"It's very unfortunate," he said. "It plays right into the hands of a bunch of pundits out there, but that's life."
Yes, Jamie boy says that this collapse "plays into the hands of the pundits", "That's life" as he casually concluded.
Pride goes before the fall, and Jamie Boy is a perfect example of Pride/Hubris.
His utter lack of professional oversight of his much-too-big-to-fail-bank is beyond comprehension.
And they said they cleaned house! And let's not forget that as late as last week, analysts tried to make us belief that these companies stocks are cheap and we should buy them. What a joke!
If JPM had everything down they would be gods. They aren't. They put on their pants and skirts on like the rest of us. Perhaps hubris, perhaps trust, it happened. Some days your the windshield, somedays your the bug.
Too big to fail indeed. How about too big and lacking in brains to succeed. Someone put these people out of business before they harm us even more. I feel very sorry for anyone who has invested in this company.
Headline "Whale poops, market tanks, Dimon in the rough, Jpm smells bad."
great coverage, thanks. keep it up
Proving once again that too big to fail is too big to be. We should simply tax any bank, hedge fund, investment vehicle of any kind at 100% above a certain point, to avoid the possibility of "mistakes" tanking markets in such a unified way. Look, all the bank stocks tanking at once.
It's really important that they not have a dominant position, in silver or anything else. Allowing monopolies to form is more risk than economies can stand. Taxing the people of a country to MAINTAIN monopolies is slow economic suicide.
This needs to stop. CORPORATE CAPITAL PUNISHMENT. Now, before the too-big-to-fails destroy our economy. Pull the JP Morgan corporate charter. Citibank, too. Put your money in a credit union, or invest in a local small business.
Has anyone else caught this J.P. Morgan virus?
thanks for the live blog. good to see WSJ is all over it. keep up the good work.
The idiocy and ignorance displayed on this message board is stunning.
VAR still lives at these huge banks?! Wow. Another example of the triumph of hope over experience.
When one individual trader can cause gigantic losses for, or even bring down, a bank, how can anyone own bank stocks and sleep at night?
Did the banks learn nothing in 2008 from their irresponsible selling of credit default insurance on mortagage loans, for which the Federal Reserve and the taxpayer had bail out ? The large banks tell us that they own minimal amounts of the European Sovereign debt, but when they sell these instruments they risk hundreds of billions of dollars of capital and risk the US going into a 2nd Banking Crisis, if Europe's debt crisis worsens. Dimon had to know that his bank has continually been selling Credit default swaps on European bonds; and therefore he should be fired, required to pay the loss from his own funds, and tried criminally for violation of banking regulations. Jamie Dimon, as CEO is personally responsible for allowing his bank to be selling credit default insurance on European bonds thus un-necessarily risking tax payer guranteed (FDIC insured) deposits. Any bank doing this sort of transaction is in violation of the taxpayer's, depositer's, and stockholders trust.
A headge unit trying to make profit taking uncovered high risk, that's nonesense. JPM don't have the competences to track derivatives strategies, what positions where they covering with CDS?, Answ: they where just betting, all or nothing.... they loose...
JP Morgan may have lost $2 billion in trading and it may reveal the gaps in their risk management, but it's not a complete sucker like many others...and their losses are not being funded by taxpayers...
Thats right...occupy wall street, screw 'em all!
like more detail from Jimmy the hand and others
I wonder if this is the same 2 biillion Corzine stole and gave to J.P. Morgan for safe keeping. The crooks are robbing the crooks. Financial collapse must be right around the corner and the rats are abandoning ship. So much for honor among thieves.
I hope it will not drop the dividend, having just raised it. A large part of my income is from JP Morgan stock.. To drop or lower dividend, having just raised it would seem suicidal to me! I would think you would want to avoid a huge sell off of stock. I cannot sell mine as it is in a life estate, so I'm stuck.
Obviously J. P. Morgan does not think a 2 BILLION DOLLAR LOSS is a great deal, especially when it concerns using the investor's money. DUMP your stock in JP now, let them know that they cannot do business this way. The first stock holders to get out will be the ones that loose the least, (or gain the most) the stick-arounds will loose everything. Bring this company to its knees and make it of little or no value. Maybe then they will understand that they cannot practice this type of risky behavior. If they want to gamble, let them gamble with their own personal Billions.
Well, obviously this calls for seven-figure bonuses all around, sweet golden parachutes for those leaving the employ of J.P., and foreclosures on a few hundred thousand mortgages that are 5 seconds and/or $1 late. Maybe repossess some baby carriages and sell them on EBay?

SUNY College at Old Westbury's
Neuroscience International Program
A Minority and Health Disparities International Research Training
Sponsored by the National Institutes of Health's
National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities
Program Description
The Neuroscience International Program offers international
research opportunities to qualified minority undergraduates. The objective
is to increase the awareness of international research issues and prospects, and
acquaint students with a variety of careers in research, especially related to
U.S. minority health problems. The program provides round-trip airfare to
the destination country, full tuition payment for two months (June, July) of
research training in a foreign laboratory, room and board at the foreign
institution, a monthly stipend for living expenses, and student health insurance
for the duration of the program. The students are expected to maintain a
full-time work schedule (avg. 40 hours/week). This time may include
library work, lectures, etc. There is no provision for over-time
compensation. Students will be required to submit a report of their
research at the end of the training period. There are also opportunities
to present research work at conferences. We currently have programs in:
SPAIN - Dr. Alfonso Carrascosa focuses on microbiology,
particularly pathogens involved in fermentation. He is the Director of the
Microbiology department at the Institute of Industrial Fermentations in Madrid,
Eligibility and Qualifications
Trainees must be citizens or non-citizen nationals of the United States, or have been lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence (i.e., possess a currently valid Alien Registration Receipt Card I-551, or other legal verification of such status). Non-citizen nationals are generally persons born in outlying possessions of the United States (e.g., American Samoa). Individuals on temporary or student visas are not eligible to participate in the MHIRT Program.
Trainees must be from a health disparity population as determined by the Director, NCMHD, in consultation with the Director, AHRQ. For the purposes of this program, health disparity populations are defined as African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, Alaskan Natives, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders, and the medically underserved (i.e., socio-economically disadvantaged individuals in rural and urban areas).
This program will recruit trainees who could most benefit from a financially supported opportunity for an international scientific research experience, and who are most likely to pursue basic science, clinical, biomedical or behavioral health research careers that will contribute ultimately to the elimination of health disparities in the U.S. and between populations living in developing countries and the U.S.
Undergraduate participants should have completed approximately two years of coursework in a major related to biomedical or behavioral science, have a minimum GPA of 3.0 and/or show other evidence of exceptional scientific interest and talent. Previous undergraduate research experience is highly recommended before entering the MHIRT program. Students will be required to show documented proof of their eligibility (i.e., proof of citizenship/residency, transcripts).
Priority is given to students of SUNY College at Old Westbury and this program's affiliates (other SUNY institutions). Students must have a valid passport. Attendance will be required at several meetings/seminars held at the campus of SUNY College at Old Westbury for the purpose of educating students in bioethics and responsible research.
Complete applications must be submitted by February 15th of the year of the trip, to be eligible. You may print out the application through the link below, or you may request an application by phone, mail, or fax (see our contact page). Please be sure that all of the following are included when you return your application package:
Evaluations and the final decisions will be made based upon the student's academic record, including GPA and relevant coursework, the compatibleness of the student's goals with the potential research projects, prior research experience or strong evidence of interest in research, likelihood that the student will pursue a biomedical/behavioral research career, and other criteria such as languages spoken, faculty recommendations, special skills, etc.

Unexpected Reasons Why We Gain Weight
Despite decades of dieting, hundreds of different diets, and a billion weight-loss attempts, Americans are heavier than ever. Instead of worrying constantly about what we are eating, switching from low-carb to fat-free than back to low-carb, and collecting bottles of weight-loss pills, potions, and powders, our battle with the bulge could have more to do with a subtle little habit or two that undermines our best efforts to eat right.
We talked with Elizabeth Somer, Registered Dietitian and author of Eat Your Way to Happiness who set the record straight on a few sneaky reasons why we gain weight, despite eating good diets.

|Effect of vessel size on lipid content of coronary plaques assessed by integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20173304 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|BACKGROUND: Tissue characterization of coronary plaques is feasible using integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS), and higher lipid content has been found in the target lesions of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The present study was performed to identify clinical and IVUS parameters that correlate with plaque composition assessed by IB-IVUS.
METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 109 patients (age 60.0+/-9.7 years) were evaluated with IVUS and IB-IVUS prior to percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients with ACS had a larger vessel size and higher plaque burden in the target lesion than those with stable angina. Relative lipid content of the target lesion by IB-IVUS was also higher in ACS (43.6%+/-12.0% vs 29.9%+/-14.2%; P<0.001). The remodeling index (r=0.403, P<0.001), plaque burden (%) (r=0.495, P<0.001), and vessel size (r=0.572, P<0.001) significantly correlated with lipid content. In the multiple regression analysis, vessel size was the most important independent predictor of lipid content followed by presence of ACS and the remodeling index.
CONCLUSIONS: ACS, positive remodeling, and larger plaque burden were associated with higher lipid content of coronary plaque. However, the lipid content on IB-IVUS was also significantly affected by vessel size. Therefore, qualitative, morphologic assessment of coronary plaque rather than simple quantitative analysis of tissue components seems to be more appropriate for the identification of vulnerable plaque using IB-IVUS.

My main interest is in finding out the truth. To me, as for Gandhiji, Truth is God. I differ from Gandhiji, though, in that I affirm that it is definitely possible to find out the truth using reason. Perhaps not all the truth, but at least in increasing degree. For finding out the truth, I believe the Mind is the most important thing one has. Therefore I call myself "A Thinker". Others might call me a philosopher. (Being a thinker doesn't mean that I am not into emotions, though. I took an on-line test a few days ago on OKCupid, and I scored 45% right-brained and 55% left-brained. The people who designed the test call me "center-brained", and add: "If you are center brained, you are likely both logical and creative, excel in the maths and sciences, and also art and philosophy." Neat.)
Although I spend my life seeking the truth, however, truth is not its own justification. Truth is only valuable insofar as it leads to goodness - more precisely, to bliss, joy, ecstasy, happiness. Since the only thing that does not need any justification is joy - since joy is its own justification - I consider enjoyment to be the best thing in life. I try to enjoy lots of things. I write books and articles, I cook, I go to performances, I entertain friends, I drive my WRX-STi car and hope to get a motorcycle, a sailboat and a rowing scull some time, I enjoy arguing finer points of philosophy and the law, and indeed I enjoy too many things to list here. I get turned on by lots of things.
As for what turns me off? Not much; but violence might be the one thing that genuinely turns me off. "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent" - Isaac Asimov. Violence leads to suffering - and how can suffering be enjoyable?
Sex is a big interest in my life, and I strongly suspect that's a big interest in everyone else's life also. I take grave exception to those who think that sex is somehow bad, unspiritual or "dirty". (This, unfortunately, includes such people as Gandhiji and my Dad, whom I otherwise admire greatly.) Sex is not only something to be unashamed of, but something to actively celebrate. Indeed, I find that most people in most societies, Eastern as well as Western, and no matter how liberal otherwise, have a somewhat negative attitude towards sex. Even in this day and age, when sex is thought to be rampant on TV and other media, few people have erotic art hanging on the walls of their houses. At best, in our world sex is mostly considered to be merely neutral: not worth actual celebration. Certainly most people think that children should be shielded from talk or depictions of sex (as if there would have been any children without sex!) Even Freud, who pioneered the use of sex as a psychotherapeutic tool, appears to have been worried that his work would not find a sympathetic audience among the psychotherapy community of his day. He even urged his colleague Jung to reconsider the latter's delving into spirituality in order to find other causes for psychoneuroses, saying that Western academics and therapists would find it still harder, the way Jung was going, to take the importance of sex in psychoanalysis seriously. And even Freudians don't actually celebrate sex. I am myself greatly into Tantric sex, which I have begun to delve into recently. The only disciple I know which actually celebrates sex, and indeed considers it indispensable to attaining the highest levels of spiritual enlightenment, is Tantra - both Hindu and Buddhist. Tantra is about achieving a balance between male and female energies within the self and with a partner. Tantric sex is sexuality which directs energy toward free expression and breaks barriers internally and inter-personally, attained by elevating sex acts to a divine practice and uniting as beloveds for whom every touch and movement is considered a divine gift. It is aligning with another being and with the world through divine sexual experience. It celebrates sex as an honouring of all beings and creation; it liberates the practitioner to experience the highest levels of bliss.
Sex can be an invaluable aid to the achieving personal wholeness and harmony; and it has been recognized as such in Tantra. But it can reach those heights only when there is worship: that is, where each partner acknowledges the divinity - if one may so put it - of his or her sexual partner.
I think it follows, as a consequence, that love must be the basis of the best sex. There can be sex without love, but there can be no great and wonderful sex without love (using the words "great" and "wonderful" with the highest possible meaning they are capable of bearing). It's true that love can grow after sex, but if it doesn't, it isn't great sex. Most importantly, I believe that the basis of any true friendship, whether sexual or otherwise, is love. (Indeed, the English word "friend" is derived in the ultimate analysis from an ancient Indo-European word priyā meaning "beloved"; and the French word ami, the Spanish word amigo and the Italian word amico, - all meaning "friend" - are also derived in the ultimate analysis from the Latin word amor, love.) In seeking a friendship, I always seek primarily to love, and as importantly, to be loved.
In general, I desire honesty and openness in my friends: even if they insult me but are honest about it, I like it. I prefer to be told my faults so I can correct them, rather than live under the illusion that I have none.
And in my way of thinking, friendship is not binary: that is, "friendship with sex" (sometimes called "romantic freindship") and "friendship without sex" (sometimes called "platonic friendship"). Friendship is, rather, a continuum, in which sex may be introduced - or not - in varying degrees, depending upon the "chemistry" between the friends.
However, love can never be constrained. "Love withers under constraint; its very essence is liberty. It is compatible neither with envy, jealousy or fear." - So wrote the poet Shelley, and he was completly correct. As a result of embracing this philosophy, I am polyamorous. And, I might add, not just from a philosophical perspective; I am poly by nature, and have been so since attaining puberty. I have been in love with many women, and all those with whom I have been in love, I still love: even those who have "dumped" me. (As for myself I never "dump" anyone - that's just the way I am.)
I suspect most people are polyamorous to some degree: otherwise one couldn't explain so many instances of "cheating", as those who call themselves monoamorous (or - erroneously - monogamous) refer to the polyamorous nature of their mates. I think that polyamory is the natural state of human beings, and I suspect that most people just don't face up to the truth about their sexual nature - their or their partners'. If they did, they would acknowledge the existence of polyamorous tendencies within almost all people: in particular, themselves and their loved ones.
I am an "into-me-see" (a.k.a. intimacy) junkie - I love to be able to see deeply into other people, into each one's heart and spirit, and to get to know what they really are ... and to have them reciprocate in kind with me. I myself am an open book - I have nothing to hide. I find those who are like me in this respect extremely attractive, even if we aren't alike in many other ways.
Love at first sight? My late wife fell in love with me at first sight - indeed, she even fell in love with me before we met, because she had a dream about me long before our first encounter - so not only do I believe in love at first sight but as far as I am concerned, it's a fact.
The perfect date? That's a no-brainer - one which both parties enjoy! Before, during AND after the date. (And a date doesn't have to be restricted to two parties, either.)
I like both the city and the countryside. In North America I think I should prefer the countryside, living in (preferably) a log cabin situated on the shores of a lake or river, or (even better) the ocean. But I have children who need to live in the city, so I live in a nice part of Ottawa, the capital of Canada. I can send you links to photos of my neighbourhood, if you ask me for them. That said, I have lived in many parts of the world, including Italy, England and India, and find North American cities not quite up the class of European ones. Nevertheless Ottawa is among the nicest in North America, with lots of green spaces, lovely woods nearby, and located at the junction of three, count 'em, three, rivers ... and one of them is even called Kitchissippi, which in the Algonquin language means "The Great River"! (That's kind of a powerful and sacred location, innit? If it were in India it would the site of huge pilgrimages!)
My lifestyle? I should describe it as "eclectic" - deriving ideas, style, and taste from a broad and diverse range of sources. Part of my lifestyle is my kids. I have three children, two of whom live with me, even though my two older boys are both over twenty. My youngest, a girl, is 12. They need my help every now and then - my daughter, the most - so I am not always free to pursue my own private and personal interests. But I enjoy helping them.
Vacations? My most memorable trip was a two-month time I walked all the way from the centre of Italy to the southern city of Brindisi, hiking across mountains and fields, sleeping out in a sleeping bag. I actually walked - about 8 hours a day. That was, however, more than 40 years ago. Nevertheless, my oldest son and I are planning on a walking tour of Italy for a month next year or the year after that, perhaps some time in late May and/or June of 2012 or 2013.
Money is important to me only to the extent that I would not like to be living in poverty, or even to "feel the pinch". But beyond that point I have little interest in amassing money. Money is only good because of what it can buy - and it can't buy many of the great and most enjoyable things in life. As the Beatles sang, "Money can't buy me love" - yes?
As for expectations, I don't have any. I expect nothing, accept everything ...
I was born in India during WW-II and spent the first 21 years of my life there, growing up speaking four languages; I then travelled to Europe where I spent about three years, most of them in Italy (with some months in Germany and England also, plus a week in France and a day in Switzerland). I became fluent in Italian, having lived mostly with Italians when I was there: mostly near Florence. I then went to Israel where I did my university studies in agriculture, having earlier dropped out of university in India after passing my high school with the highest marks in my class (because I thought university in India was crap, pardon my french). I spent nine years in Israel, became fluent in Hebrew and lived on various kibbutzim for about six years. (I am not Jewish, by the way.) After this I returned to India and worked under my Dad for eight years, helping out with his various projects, which were many and fascinating. You can get some idea of them from the links to his website (ask me for the URL if you are interested). Both my parents were close associates of Mahatma Gandhi, and I myself was given my name by Gandhiji when I was born. My Mum insisted, when I was born, that Gandhiji should give me my name, but he was at the time under house arrest at Aga Khan Palace in Poona, the city where I was born, so it was only when he was released a few months later that I got my name. For months I had no name, and was, I suppose, just called "The Baby" (or "baba", as it would have been in Gujarati - my parents were Parsis). The astrologers had said that my name should begin with an "A" (or rather it's devanagari equivalent), so Gandhiji picked for me the first name of the "jailer" at Aga Khan Palace who had been in charge of seeing to it that he didn't evade house arrest! It was Gandhiji's principle, you see, to be good towards everyone, and especially towards his "enemies". Actually, he had none. Likewise with me: I have no enemies (and it's not because "They are all dead", as the corny old joke goes. ;-) My Dad was very well known in India by everyone from Prime Minister Nehru down to the common people. My Dad's website explains a bit about him (but by no means everything, or even everything publicly known in India about him). His "Nature Cure Clinic and Sanatatorium", where Gandhiji stayed after his release from Aga Khan Palace, is now the National Insitute of Naturopathy, Pune (you can google it): my Dad gave it away to the Nation as a gift while he was still alive. In fact the room in which Gandhiji stayed (and in which he was phtographed by LIFE magazine phtographer Margaret Bourke-White - remember the famous photo used by Apple Computer for its "Think Different" ad campaign in the early 2000s?) is also the room in which I had been born a year earlier. I came to Canada in 1985 because I fell in love with a lady from Ottawa, a most remarkable woman whom I married in November of that year. She passed away several months ago. At my website you can find links to all these things: ask me for its URL, if you're interested.

Teena Petro, an advocate for Vietnam veterans benefits, talks to The Star Press Thursday in her office.
- Filed Under
There's not much anybody can tell Teena Petro about the cost of war, or the price that families of veterans often pay as a result of it.
After all, she has had family members die of the effects of the Vietnam-era herbicide Agent Orange, and others killed in action.
"It's about them," she said, in a reference to their honor, seated at her desk in her office at Vietnam Veterans Family Assistance Center Inc., the organization she started to help American veterans of all wars to file claims for disability compensation. ...

McGregor to be first stop of this summer's Romper Room motorcycle ride
By Audrey Posten, North Iowa Times Editor
With its scenic views and unique businesses, McGregor attracts sloughs of motorcyclists each year. In just one day—on Saturday, June 21—the city will bring in roughly 1,300 motorcycles, as riders will descend on the city for the 25th annual Romper Room Fun Run motorcycle ride.
Starting in Earlville, Iowa, the riders will arrive in McGregor around 12:30 p.m., making the city their first stop. Carl Hexom, owner of Crazy Carl's Silver Dollar Saloon and organizer and host of the McGregor stop, said this will be a big boon for the city and its businesses.
"Financially, for the town and everyone, that's the best because it's the food stop," he said.
The stop has been in the works for awhile, so Hexom has already coordinated with the McGregor Clan Lions Club to provide food. The stop, which Hexom said will last for two hours, at the most, will also give bikers the opportunity to check out other businesses. With an estimated 1,300 motorcycles, Hexom said McGregor could expect around 2,200 people. Since it's an anniversary year, there could be even more than that.
"That's what we hope to get here," said McGregor Mayor Harold Brooks, as he and the council listened to Hexom's plans for the event at the March 10 council meeting.
With the bikes expected to take up several city blocks, the event will also have a lot of visual appeal.
"It's going to draw people who want to see the bikes," said councilman Joe Muehlbauer.
The bikers will gather on B Street and in the parking lot next to Crazy Carl's Silver Dollar Saloon, which will also hold live entertainment. Much of Main Street will be closed from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The police department and other volunteers will work to direct traffic coming into and through town. The city will provide port-a-potties and additional garbage cans to accommodate the large crowd.
Hexom said the local band 88 MPH slated to play during the event. His beer distributors are aware and will help him order the amount of beer needed for an event this size. He said he has already started making ice as well.
Although the rush will last around two hours, Hexom said he plans to extend the party throughout the day, bringing in evening entertainment to keep other visitors in town.
"Other businesses would be wise to do the same," said councilwoman Rogeta Halvorson, mentioning that other bars and restaurants should also have food available, while the shops should have sales. "We want all retailers and everybody to know and participate," she continued.
Hexom said the stop should also pay dividends down the road.
"The run's wonderful, but the repeat business to the area two years after is huge," he said. "People will say, 'We just had to come back.'"
Hexom said he is open to entertainment suggestions and welcomes people with questions or concerns to stop in or give him a call. He is excited with the plans so far and hopes the weather cooperates.
"Pray for nice weather," he said, "but they'll come rain or shine. Even if it's pouring rain, there will still be 600 people here."

Bass X - Ah, I remember that week... That was my second download. It was right after I noticed this site and the decision was instantaneous. I love that game. I just sit there and stare at the screen in awe. Ah, big screen Civ... how I love thee.
I will say I'm not currently interested in these two games but I am happy for the many many people who are finally getting them. I know they've been highly requested games for some time now.
Disappointing but at least it was a quality game. They should have put a few fringe games on though. That would have lessened the impact on HM being the only game.
Well, sorry that all of you are satisfied with a few good releases in an entire year. Yes, I downloaded about five games this year. However, at the prices Nintendo charges (low ones) I should have been compelled to buy more. I am disappointed that our New Year's Eve download included the equivalent of Street Fighter 2 instead of Super Street Fighter 2' Turbo Hyper Fighting something or other. I love Bubble Bobble. But there are later versions I love more. All I ask for is Nintendo to release one non-fringe game EVERY week, not some, I won't argue that we never got quality games, I want one EVERY week this coming year. If they switch to more than 3 releases a week, which makes more sense, especially from a business point of view, I'd be happy with that too. At least then I get more of a variety to choose from. With the amount of consoles we have available now, giving us 3 games is stupid and selfish. That is what I call mediocrity and I hope it ceases to exist in 2008.
Okay, if it was Puzzle Bobble or Bust-A-Move, I wouldn't complain. But here's a quote I'd love to hear from Nintendo today:
"We hope you loved mediocrity on the Virtual Console this year. We know we did! However, we thought the blandness had to stop eventually, so our New Year's resolution is to release at least one game every week that more than 20% of the population downloading VC titles will like. We're going to start off with a REAL New Years treat next week instead of that dinosaur game and the fake RPG we gave you New Year's Eve."
How's that for dreamin'?
Oh yeah, I've been holding off on SF just for this one. Can't wait for some reciprocation here... Share the love Nintendo.
chadnorred, it's actually not possible to beat it as Frog Mario as there is a small castle which requires you to either be small Mario or do the run/slide as big Mario. Sad, but hey, that's practically the end of the game.
Lame... as usual.
Glad I just got LEGO Star Wars for the Wii. And still haven't gotten bored with SIN AND PUNISHMENT YAY!
Jeez, how about all the real classic games Nintendo? Give us a break with all the fringe games. If this keeps up, I expect to see nonsense like Bubble Bath Babes before the real games start showing up...

Flaked Nutritional Yeast
Usage Tips
Use nutritional yeast to add flavour and nutritional content to sauces and gravies, mix it into scrambled eggs or tofu, or sprinkle it over salads, popcorn, pasta or baked potatoes. A typical daily serving size is one to two tablespoons.
Storage Tips
Store in a cool, dry place.
Points of Interest
Nutritional yeast is yeast that is specifically cultivated as a food crop for use as a nutritional supplement and to add flavour to foods. It has a nutty, slightly sweet and cheese-like flavour. This yeast is flaked for easy use and it blends especially well with liquids. It can be used in almost any recipe – adding just a small amount will enhance its flavour.
Nutritional yeast should not be confused with baker's yeast, which is used to make bread rise. Nutritional yeast is an inactive yeast, meaning the yeast cells are not live and have no leavening power.

Manage Your Medications
How do you know you're taking the most appropriate medications? Could there be harmful interactions between two drugs? What if you forget to refill a prescription?
Our prescription drug plans help you get the most from your medications with tools that put you in control of your own medication management, and behind-the-scenes, active management of our plans based on the latest drug research.
Tools that Put You in Control
- Medication Therapy Management: Request a free annual medication checkup (Comprehensive Medication Review) to review all your prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, and supplements.
- Mail Order Refill Reminders: Help prevent gaps in drug-taking with electronic reminders when it's time to refill your prescription.
- Automatic Refills: Sign up to have your regular medications refilled automatically.
- Drug-to-Drug Interactions: See if the drug you're about to take has negative interactions with something you're already taking, including over-the-counter medications and various foods.
- Drug Recall List: Check whether a medication has been recalled by the FDA.
Active Management of Our Plans
- Medication Review: CareFirst's Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee meets six times a year with top doctors and pharmacists to review the latest advances in medication research, and to decide which drugs are most clinically effective and cost efficient for treating medical conditions.
- Drug Adherence: Avoid costly medical complications with community education programs that teach the importance of taking all recommended drugs on schedule.
- Quantity vs. Time Monitoring: Your provider receives alerts if medications are being overprescribed.
- ePrescribing: Electronic transmission of prescriptions directly from your doctor means fewer errors, with no handwriting to figure out, no question of whether the fax "went through."
- Allergy Checks: Electronic medical records of your drug allergies and current medications help our pharmacists spot potential harmful effects from new prescriptions.
- Specialty Prescription Management: Ensure that appropriate treatments are followed for complex medical conditions by providing:
- Personalized patient care with provider support
- Monthly calls from care coordinators to ensure drugs are being taken as prescribed
- 24/7 access to nurse/pharmacist hotline
- Educational materials
- Home delivery of drugs

(Accidental shooting near Buckman Springs)….Officials received the call at around 9:00 Sunday morning.
The caller said his friend had accidentally shot himself in the leg. Officials say the pair was hunting in an area near Interstate 8 and Buckman Springs Road. They said the incident occurred about six miles from the nearest Road. The wounded hunter had to be airlifted out of the area. He was flown to a San Diego area Hospital. His condition was not made available. The shooting is under investigation.

Narrow your search
While it's not nearly as refined as the new fourth-gen Surface Pro, Microsoft's Surface Book is a powerful, feature-filled premium hybrid that doesn't forget it's a laptop first.
One of Verizon and MetroPCS' least-expensive phones, the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime makes a decent entry-level choice, but it still isn't as good as the competition.
With better battery life and performance than the Yoga 3 Pro (not to mention a lower price), the Yoga 3 14 is one of the best hybrid deals around.
A host of small refinements cements the Surface Pro 4's position as the best-in-class Windows tablet -- so long as you're prepared to pay extra for the required keyboard cover accessory.
There are many ways to put PC games on a living room TV, and the Alienware Steam Machine is one of the most ambitious. Like all new console launches, there are rocky patches, but the biggest hurdle may be proving why Steam OS is a better choice than Windows.
The 27-inch iMac line from Apple gets 5K displays and new CPUs on every model.
The Lenovo ThinkCentre Chromebox doesn't exactly inspire, but if you or your employees need simple online access, it performs well for a very small investment.
The smallest Apple iMac trades up to a 4K display, and jumps to newer, but still not the latest, processors. While the design hasn't changed, newly crafted accessories with rechargeable batteries and Lightning connectors add flair and convenience.
Samsung's Galaxy Note 5 is excellent overall, and the only phone to buy if you want to write by hand. However, you'll pay a huge premium for a modest upgrade from last year's model, and less pricey competitors will satisfy many.
Avoid the iSP5 SmartPlug if you're an Android user. For iOS, it's worth considering given the HomeKit compatibility and relatively low cost, but if you want to start building a larger smart home, I'd wait for a more robust HomeKit option as at least two will hit retailers by the end of 2015.

this is my first site... i hope u like it ^^
this is my first site... i hope u like it ^^
Yahoo! Messenger invisible users detector / scanner / checker / tracer (just in case someone doesn't want to copy and paste)
I hope you come back and participate in the forum; asking for a review is not generally the first thing you post on a forum without contributing to some discussions.
That aside...
1) Your hosting sucks. The lag time I got before even getting a title in the title bar was excessive; even if it was in China, it was excessive.
2) Put some text on your site (page) explaining what your service is; not being a messenger user, I had to google it to find out.
3) Your smiley is rather pixelated looking to me. You may want to check into a better graphic.
I would comment more, but please add something for me to comment on.
FreeDetector.co.cc has the beginnings of a good design. This is mainly due to the neat fade in of the blue background with a Yahoo smiley image over it. The input field is centered below it which is what people usually expect and it is styled consistently to the color scheme of the page.
That said, there are a number of things that need to be improved for this to really feel like a complete and well designed site.
1. The Yahoo smiley image is, as Menard mentioned, a little pixelated. Looking at the original image the reason for that is clear; the background and the smiley are a single image stretched to the width of the site.
The width of the page is 800px and the width of the image is 720px. The easiest solution is to change the width of the site to 720px as well so that the image fits nicely without resizing.
2. The top left edge of the page looks like it is rounded, but the right edge is not. I'm not sure what was done to achieve that effect on top left, but for consistency either both of the top corners (or all corners ideally) should be rounded or none.
3. The "go" button could look more polished. The edges of it seem cut off rather than appearing like natural rounded corners. There should be plenty of free to use cool buttons that could be used instead of this one or you could create your own from scratch.
4. The box that appears once the username is searched for looks nice, but could still be improved by changing the text color to something brighter that would better fit the background (or alternatively change the background to brighter to better fit black text and green links). The list also seems a little misaligned. This is usually cased by centering the text of the list and can be fixed by putting the list (<ul><li> stuff) into a div block (<div>) and then centering the div itself rather than the text within it. This would make the list display nicely aligned.
5. Finally, there is just too many ads. There is a big leaderboard stuffed right between the "Detect Invisible Yahoo! Messenger users" and the search box and there appears to be no spacing between them which makes things even worse. I think it is generally a good idea to prioritize the actual function of the site as more important than ads and therefore put ads below the main function.
In this case I would completely remove that leaderboard ad and I would also remove one of the two below it as well since there's too little content here for so many ads to be necessary and it is still visible and unmissable enough not to require more than a single leaderboard. I don't think you will get more clicks by having more ads.
You could instead of one of the below leaderboards put a link unit below the search box instead which would probably convert to clicks a little better too.
Overall, this rather simplistic design would regardless look quite good if the above issues were fixed. Just removing the excess of ads and making the image its natural size would make a big difference.
Design Rating: 6/10
Focus is mainly about how clearly does the site present its purpose to visitors and how consistent is it to it. If a visitor needs time to figure it out, focus is bad. FreeDetector.co.cc could be much better with regards to this. It does say quite clearly: "Detect invisible Yahoo! Messenger users". However what isn't made clear is what exactly is supposed to be entered into the search box (or go box..).
This might seem obvious and I did try that first, but the unfamiliarity with this kind of service could easily have someone pause and perhaps not even bother for another second. In any case it wont hurt to add a simple note saying: "Enter YIM username" before the search box.
A brief introduction to what this service is about and why might someone use it would also significantly improve clarity.
Focus Rating: 8/10
On sites which by its purpose do not require much written content it is the service itself and its quality which substitutes the importance of content, in addition to any introductory text that there may be, which is generally a good idea.
FreeDetector.co.cc has no introductory text and as mentioned above it would be a good idea to add a brief explanation of the service below the search box (and above ads please).
That said, the site does really need quite a bit to load which really impairs the perceived quality. I checked my Yahoo username and set myself to invisible, but the site kept saying I was offline. I would assume this would mean it doesn't quite work, but this would have to be confirmed by someone else to be sure.
Content Rating: 7/10
With mentioned suggestions implemented I think this site may have potential. There is obviously a need for improved hosting and it would probably be a good idea to have a bunch of people who use Yahoo test it out to make sure it works well. Good luck.
Overall Rating: 7/10
