Ray Roberts and his Ulumulu - Quantum Racing team are edging closer towards the trip to Valencia by securing two handicap wins today. John and Francoise Thornton's Sydney 47 Mahligai claimed second spot in race 2 and fourth in race three. The biggest surprise of the day came when the Royal Malaysian Navy on Zuhrah took line honours from the mighty V60 Ericsson in race 3. Earlier the navy had been over the line at the start, caught up on the pin end and had trouble taking the spinnaker down at the rounding mark during race 2. Going searching for wind Ericsson tacked off into oblivion on the first windward beat that let the rest of the fleet jump in front of them and never recovered.
Premier Cruising
The withdrawal of one of the boats has left this class with only two competitors. David Lindahl's Swan 40 La Samudra has got the better of Keith Garry's Beaux Esprits on both line and handicap honours in all three races held so far.
The excitement is building as some very close finishes have been recorded. Mohd Masyuri Rahmat scraped in with another win for the RM Navy on KDP II by one second over Matthew Rickard's Sail in Asia UK Team. Japan's Kenichi Takahashi on Motomet was only a further two seconds behind to record the closest finish in the regatta to date. Race 3 saw Matthew Rickard's Sail in Asia UK Team turn the tables by snatching victory over Kenichi Takahashi's Motomet by 15 seconds. Mohd Masyuri Rahmat KDP II had to settle for third spot on this occasion and determined to fight back to hold onto first place overall.
Having scored three wins in a row Kevin Gillow's Minx is starting to run away with the series. Stuart Crow's Cinders has scored all second places and Looi Sing Hoe skippering the Selangor Youth Teams entry on Gapurna Mas Ayu II have scored all third places to finish up in that order.
The dual scoring system continues to confuse competitors, race officials and media alike. One system uses the Ocean Multihull Rating and the other is a performance based system that changes each day. Roger Kingdon's Moto Inzi continues to shine as they leave everybody trailing in their wake. Despite her design age Larry Pollock's Running Cloud has stayed up with the more modern designs to fill second spot. Kazuo Kobayashi's chartered Chameleon drops down to third today but still in front of some favoured light weight and faster multihull racers.
Club Cruising
Philip Giles crew on Nom de Plume lifted their game by two places to score a win in race two. Grenville Fordham's Image Asia Jemini Jo stayed steady in second place as E A Y Heuvel's big Swan 58 Bolero dropped to third place after their race one victory. This game of musical chairs sees them all tied on four points with two races left to run.
Ocean Rover
Eric Kading's Fat Cat came to the fore today over Des Kearn's Harlander 45 Isobar Lee Marine who now has scored two second places. Kevin Perrins Rusalka finished up third and as a result of the juggling of places all three front runners have scored four points each and the next two races will determine the podium positions.

99 Cent Only Store

Candyology 101 - Podcast Episode 9 - House Brands
In this episode of Candyology 101, Maria and I talk about house brands. You know, generics or downmarket clones of popular candies.
You can download the file directly: MP3.
Here's a quick review to go with the podcast.
In preparation for the episode, I picked up the 99 Cent Only Store version of the popular Mars candy bar array. The cross sections are shown in the image above. They're all packaged by Momentum Brands in Turkey. Though the wrappers said that they were milk chocolate covered candy bars, the milk chocolate actually contained dairy whey, which is considered a filler in the United States and cannot be labeled chocolate here. In general whey is used in place of extra sugar in cheaper milk chocolate. Think about it, if you want to make an inexpensive chocolate, you're going to use as little of the most expensive ingredient as you can. So the cacao content (not even listed) is probably not more than 20%. Then there's milk, which is usually milk fat and milk powder (which includes both the milk proteins and milk fats) ...and sugar. Too much sugar and the chocolate is unappealing and too much milk fat and the chocolate won't set. So, milk protein does nicely as a filler that has a slightly malty flavor but is generally benign.
Choco Coco (Bounty) are like Almond Joy without the almonds. The coconut was very firm, but thankfully not that sweet. The milk chocolate has an odd malty flavor to it and a sort of "vitamin" note. Overall, satisfying for a cheap candy ... there were three little bars in the package for 60 cents.
Choco Duo (Twix) - This was a smaller package instead of the king size versions of the others. The sticks smelled malty and sweet. The biscuit base was very hard with a sort of graham cracker or digestive note to it, instead of the exceptionally bland version in the US Twix. The caramel was quite stiff but ultimately chewy ... much chewier than a Twix. The texture of the whole was more within my preferences than actual Twix. But it still isn't in my arena of candy bars.
Coco Nut (Snickers) were also a king sized package that had two not-quite-full-sized bars. Mine were bloomed (all others were shiny) and I noticed right away that they're much flatter than Snickers. The ratios are completely off and the peanuts taste foreign, as if they're a different variety from the US bars. It's not very peanutty, the caramel and nougat had the same chew ... it was fine for eating, but did not scratch the same itch that a fresh Snickers does.
Coco Nougat (Milky Way) is not at all like a Milky Way. This is actually more like the Milk Munch (also make in Turkey) that I had years ago. Very malty, a little too stiff and not fluffy enough.
I'll stick to paying full boat for my Mars family of bars, especially when for a similar price, the 99 Cent Only Store sells those snack package with 6 or 8 little bars for a dollar anyway.
Don't forget you can check out the show notes for Candyology 101 and my previous "Designer Imposter" reviews.

Party Cake Peeps
Peeps were originally an Easter treat, a small dollop of marshmallow sanded with colored sugar to look like a chick. Now they come in many shapes and are released for all the major holidays. The new Party Cake Peeps are a year round Peep item from Just Born where you get to select the celebration.
I noticed they're not birthday cake themed, just party, so they could be used for engagements, housewarmings, baby showers, retirement parties, graduations ... the list is endless.
The package describes them as a way to bring home the best part of the celebration—without the cleanup! Enjoy the delicious flavor of the party in each yummy marshmallow bite!
They're not just turquoise blue, they're covered in flecks of candy confetti. The confetti is just little bit of transparent, different-colored candy shavings. They come in a set of two trays with five conjoined Peeps in a set. They're not individually sealed, so once you open the package, the clock is ticking for staleness (which may be good, depending on how you prefer your Peeps).
They smell like a cross between microwave popcorn and coconut tanning lotion. It's not overpowering, but definitely noticeably different from regular Peeps.
They're Peep textured, soft and bouncy, easy to bite. The sugary grain was not too much, so it didn't make a big mess. The inside of the Peep is just lightly creamy colored, like a cake. The flavor is marshmallowy, more vanilla than butter but with that toasted sugar flavor like an Angel Food Cake.
Overall, I liked them, perhaps better than a traditional Peep, except that the blue coloring had a bitter aftertaste.
It's nice to see a sort of generic, all year Peep on the rotation. I'd like them more if they had that little dip of chocolate on the base like some others, but I haven't tried the Vanilla Creme to compare. As for its simulation of cake ... there's nothing baked about this, nothing that tastes like cake at all. They're not even shaped like little cupcakes. It's just a fun name.
The next flavor craze they should do: Frozen Yogurt Peeps ... each Peep would be shaped like a twisted dollop of FroYo and you can sprinkle chocolate chips, Cap'n Crunch or crushed Butterfingers on them.
Or Whoopie Pie Peeps: You'd have a two chocolate Peep disks with another vanilla Peep disk in the center.

Annabelle's Rocky Road S'Mores
I heard about this new version of Annabelle's Rocky Road bar last year and I've been hoping to find them in stores. It's called Rocky Road S'Mores bar and the package describes it like this: Handmade Milk Chocolate Coated Marshmallow with Real Graham Cracker and Cashews
It's absolutely obvious that the Rocky Road line of bars should have a S'Mores variety.
The bar comes in a bronzy mylar wrapper, it's kind of hard to tell apart from the Dark Chocolate Rocky Road from a distance, so I almost grabbed the wrong one when I went out to find more.
The bar smells nicely of marshmallow (basically vanilla and sugar) with an hint of the cereal quality of graham crackers. The bar bends and pulls apart very easily. The marshmallow is pillowy and sticky and though the chocolate sticks well to it, it's rather a thin coating.
The chocolate is very sweet, but melts quickly and gives a creamy component to bind the flavors together. The graham center is interesting, it's more like a hearty digestive biscuit than a traditional grocery store graham cracker. It's not sweet, though could use a little pop of salt. The marshmallow is soft and easy to bite, sticky but not really flavorful on its own. It's so airy, it's almost a meringue.
I wanted the graham cracker to be crunchier, crisper. It kind of hides in there, where I feel like it should have more of a texture contribution. The bars don't travel well, they're easily smashed, though really look no different even when pristine. The rocky part of the rocky road, the nuts, are small bits and don't do much for me either. It's unheard of for a commercial candy bar to even have cashews, which are expensive. So, I'll accept that they're subtle rocks. Overall ... my favorite of the Rocky Road line.

Milka Milkinis
Milka is a popular brand of chocolate confections that originated in Switzerland and is now run by Kraft under their Mondelez snack division. The bars are kid friendly, and marketing with attention to their high milk content. They also have a touch of hazelnut paste, too. The box says that Milka is Europe's #1 brand of chocolate.
Milka comes in dozens and dozens of varieties. In Europe, they can take up six or eight feet of aisle space with their products (photo) and often retail for less than a Euro for a 100 gram bar (photo).
Milka Milkinis are a milk chocolate confection with creamy filling. The box holds eight slender, foil-wrapped bars and weighs 3.08 ounces.
I've seen these at Target for a while, usually for about $2.50 a box, but the 99 Cent Only Store also has them for only a buck.
Of course you get what you pay for. Though it says milk chocolate, that's used as an adjective, not a noun. It's a confection made from:
A serving is 4 bars, or about 1.5 ounces, which tallies to 260 calories - a whopping 173 calories per ounce ... a peek at the rest of the nutritional panel reveals that's 17 grams of fat, 10 of which are saturated and account for 50% of your RDA of saturated fat. (I don't usually mind as much if it's cocoa butter, but I do mind palm oil).
The bars are about 3 inches long and about 2/3 of an inch wide. They're rather flat and have four segments with the Milka cow icon on each.
The chocolate coating is quite thin, as you can see from the cross section. This candy is mostly filling. The filling does have a good milky flavor to it, there's a light hint of malt or a mellow note of something more minerally (there's 8% of your daily RDA of calcium). There's also a bit of salt in there, about 75 mg per serving, which is odd because the ingredients don't list it. It's soft and kind of pasty. It's not like a chocolate bar, not quite like fudge. More like a bar of frosting.
I didn't love them. They were okay, I can see children enjoying them, they're attractive and the small portion of the individual bars at least makes it easier to moderate intake. If I wanted this sort of creamy thing, I'd probably opt for the Lindt Lindor truffles, even though they're more expensive.
Milka contains hazelnuts and dairy products, as well as soy. (It's confusing that they use both soy and sunflower lecithin, maybe they're in transition.) They're made in a facility that also processes wheat and almonds. There's no statement about peanuts at all. Mondelez is currently buys 50% of their palm oil from certified sustainable sources and should be 100% by the end of 2015 (source). They have no stated plans for their cacao sourcing, though some is sourced through Rainforest Alliance and noted as such on their packages.

R.M. Palmer Candy Cane Cups
I'm not usually a fan of R.M. Palmer candies (I can't call their the vast majority of their products chocolate with any accuracy) but I do appreciate their packaging and design. I browsed their new Christmas offerings a few weeks ago and was actually excited by just the name of their R.M. Palmer Candy Cane Cups. Luckily at only $1.00 at the 99 Cent Only Store, the risk was low and possible rewards were high.
They kind of lost me at the description on the ribbon on the front of the package: Your Two Favorites ... Candy Cane Crunch in a Chocolaty Shell. I happen to know a lot of undiscerning people, but I can't think of any of them that would call anything "chocolaty" their favorite thing. They might eat it pretty happily ... but most folks prefer the real stuff.
The ingredients include a lot of sugar and partially hydrogenated oils ... I'm not sure what will happen to these if the FDA bans artificial trans fats, though the nutrition panel lists that a serving of 4 cups contains 65% of your RDA of saturated fat, it doesn't actually show any trans fats (though if it's less than .5 grams, they can say there's 0).
The cups are nicely designed. The foil is clean red & white stripes and easy to identify if you were to put them in a candy dish. The cup is a nice size, could be one bit or two small ones. (I always like to look inside.)
They smell quite pepperminty. The chocolate coating is oily but does have a melt-in-your-mouth quality because of all the tropical oils. It has a light cocoa note to it, but it's barely discernible. The filling is firm but also has a melty but slightly grainy quality. There are little bits of peppermint candy in it that give a slight crunch and texture.
I was prepared to hate these, but it's a great idea and though not executed with premium ingredients, they're still passable. Now ... let's see some real chocolate companies do better.

Red Bird Brand Puffs
Sometime about a year ago I picked up some Root Beer Puffs, which were like buttermints but flavored like the soda. A few weeks later I got a note from a company called Red Bird Brand that makes candy puffs in a huge variety of flavors. It took me quite a while to find them, but I did pick up Soft Assorted Puffs at the 99 Cent Only Store that includes 15 different flavors. (Though perhaps not always in the same bag.)
The flavor variety is, well, extraordinary: Peppermint, Cherry, Lemon, Green Apple, Wintergreen, Strawberry, Orange, Grape, Peach, Blueberry, Butterscotch, Watermelon, Cream Penny, Cotton Candy, Passion Fruit. There's a menu guide on the back that shows the key for the combination of colors and stripes. There are about 25 candies in the bag, but the flavors were not distributed evenly.
One of the differences between this style of Puffs and the traditional Buttermint of After Dinner Mint is the size. These are quite large, at about 1 inch across and all of them are individually wrapped. (No more candy dish with the stuck together.)
Cherry was bold and easy to spot. It's a flavor that's both heavily scented and with a light tartness to it. It was smooth and had a good melt, but overall, it's not usually my favorite though at least this didn't have a lot of red coloring in it.
The flavors not in my bag: Peppermint, Cotton Candy, Passion Fruit and Orange.
For the most part I didn't like the fruity flavors. The others like butterscotch and wintergreen were more to my liking, even the unflavored Cream Penny were pleasant.
One of the other items I picked up many months ago were the Red Bird Soft Hot Cinnamon Puffs. The bag holds only 4 ounces and was also $1.00, this time at Dollar Tree.
The puffs themselves are quite nice, I liked them more than the variety package. There's a floral, sort of honey note to them. But they're also quite cinnamony. I wouldn't call them hot though, it was a nice heat but they never approached anything like the fire of an Atomic Fireball.
The cinnamon smell is strong, even when they're in the package, so I had to keep them separated from other candies.
The package for the Assorted Puffs said it was Gluten Free, they're also Kosher Pareve and appear to be vegan ingredients.
It was strange that I didn't get the classic Peppermint in the Assorted mix, which is what Red Bird Brand is known for. Overall, the texture was good, they softened up nicely. The package mentions that they're rather hard when they're first made, but if you prefer a softer puff, to open the package and wait ... it was true. After a couple of months, mine reached the melt in your mouth texture that I was expecting.

Short and Sweet: Easter Bites - Part 2
I have a few more Easter items I wanted to include before Sunday. They're not extraordinary products, but I didn't want to pass them up.
This year was, I felt, the best we've had so far this decade for Easter candy diversity. It was a nice mix of classic products, new flavor twists on existing items and then some exciting new diversions. The stores seemed well stocked, better than I saw them two years ago, for example. It's an encouraging sign for the economy and for our tummies.
Just Born is celebrating 60 years of their iconic Peeps marshmallow candies. They've come a long way from the early years when they came in plain yellow. Now they're available in all the colors of the rainbow and special flavors.
To mark the anniversary, they've created a 60th Anniversary version in Vanilla Creme flavor. They're the individual Peeps (not a conjoined row) and feature little sparkly flecks of multi colored candies, like edible confetti.
I prefer an uncolored Peep, as I think the artificial colorings get in the way of the pure sugary flavor. (Ghost Peeps, for that reason, are the best.)
The Vanilla Creme is a soft flavor, artificial and lacking in the complexity of a nice Tahitian vanilla pod, but still it has a soft and comforting flavor that cuts a bit of the sugary sweetness. They're bouncy and fluffy and grainy. The little confetti add a little bit of a crunch, but mostly they dissolve quickly on the tongue.
These would be a fun version available all year round. I also heard that they're releasing Birthday Cake Peeps which are a turquoise blue and yellow cake flavored. (Which is also a great idea for a year-round Peep.)

I admit that I bought these because of the package.
They're just egg shaped gumballs.
Smarties Bubble Gum Eggs are made by Ford Gum in the USA with real sugar, there are no artificial sweeteners in there. I bought them for $1.49 at Cost Plus World Market, but then I saw them at the 99 Cent Only Store for a dollar.
They're passably good. They come in different colors, but I really didn't get a sense that they were different flavors, all vaguely and pleasantly fruity. They were soft enough to bite but have a satisfyingly crunchy shell. Each piece is a good size for chewing, two make for a little too much. The sugar takes a while to be dissolved, so there's no bubble blowing right away. Even after the sugar is gone, they're a little too stiff and snappy to blow a good bubble with.
At other times of the year, they're also available as plain old gumballs. I bought them before and feel the same way about them. They're okay. Mostly I like them because they're pretty. I just chew the sugar out, spit out the gum and start up with a new piece.

I noticed this new Hershey's chocolate bunny introduced in 2011 called Snapsy Snap-Apart Bunny.
The concept is that the bunny is flat instead of dimensional, and pre-sectioned to break apart easily. The version I purchased, for a buck, is 2 ounces, or about the size of a King Size bar. It comes apart into five pieces. Each is a good size for dipping into peanut butter, which was always my favorite way to eat my Easter Rabbit.
This is one of those products that solves a problem you didn't know you had. I'm sure if this were sold on infomercials, the first part would demonstrate all the frustrating things about a sumptuous solid chocolate bunny and how hard it is to eat, how children fight over it and what it should be named.
I don't have much to say except that it's a rabbit shaped Hershey's bar. It's made from Hershey's marginally satisfying chocolate, the same stuff in Hershey's Kisses, Hershey's Miniatures and those addictive little Hershey's Candy Coated Eggs. While I don't think Hershey's Milk Chocolate is good chocolate, it's mighty fine candy. It's fudgy, grainy and tangy and comforting.
It's also made in Mexico. (The Candy Professor had a bit of a rant about Snapsy.)

Russell Stover Kris P. Pretzel Bunny
There's rarely anything new to report in the world of chocolate rabbits for Easter. There's plenty of variation: They come in flat styles and three dimensional. Sitting and standing poses. Hollow and solid. Milk, white or dark chocolate (and sometimes flavored solid confection). The chocolate can also have some inclusions. Until recently this was rather rare, and mostly crispy rice. This year Russell Stover, which already makes a white confection Cookies 'n' Creme version, came out with the Russell Stover Kris P. Pretzel Bunny.
I learned of the existence of this tasty sounding bunny on Rebekah's Obsessive Sweets blog. I did find it at CVS but it was a full 7 ounces and four dollars, I just wanted to taste it. So off to the Russell Stover's website I go and found out that there's a 1.5 ounce version out there, so I checked out the 99 Cent Only Store. Success ... and only a buck. (Though the large version is a better value.)
The bunny, at only 1.5 ounces, is not particularly large, but compact. It's quite thick through the middle, and if it were solid (without the pretzel bits), it would probably be more difficult to bite.
Suspended within the milk chocolate are little bits of pretzel. They're not chunks, they really are teensy bits. My guess is that they have to be in order to get the molding process to work.
The bite is wonderfully grainy, there are a lot of little bits in there. They don't create the dry crunch that a whole pretzel piece would. Instead there's more the malty and salty flavors in there and of course the slight grit of a pretzel dust. The chocolate is creamy and sweet, with a light smoky note. Sadly, it's very salty. There are 240 mg of salt in there, which the package says is 10% of your RDA, but I think, for me, it's more like 25% since I eat so little salt. So it could easily be cut in half and I think most people would find it still has that zap.
I liked it and would probably buy this variety again. It'd be nice if it came in a dark variety, but the chocolate here was sufficiently strong enough to stand up for itself with the pretzel flavors and textures.
The packaging is excessive. It's not a large rabbit, but the box is big and has a useless tray inside. I understand needing to box up hollow bunnies, but the solid variety shouldn't need more than some foil and/or a box, not the tray as well.
Since this has pretzels in it, it's not gluten free. The bunnies contain soy and dairy. It's also made on shared equipment with peanuts, tree nuts and eggs. There's no statement on the package or on Russell Stover's website about the sourcing of their chocolate or other ingredients except that their chocolate sourcing partners are members of the World Cocoa Foundation.

The Champion of Health Award focuses on exceptional projects that address urgent threats to the public's health, address TMA science and public health priorities, and further TMAF's mission: to help physicians create a healthier future for all Texans. Established in 1995, the award has recognized local and statewide programs including Hope Medical Clinic, the Mission of Mercy Mobile Medical Clinics, Caring for Children Foundation of Texas, Children Nutrition Program of the Texas Department of Agriculture, Healthy High/Healthy Choices by Schulenburg Weimar in Focus Together, The Cancer and Chronic Disease Consortium of El Paso, and Julie Rogers "Gift of Life" Program. The top winner receives a $5,000 award to be used towards the winning program and the secondary winner receives a $2,500 grant. See a full list of past winning programs.
FitWorth was launched by Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price in September 2012 to address the fact that more than 50 percent of the children in Fort Worth ISD (FWISD) were overweight or obese. Designed as a grassroots strategic campaign, FitWorth focuses on positive behaviors and wide-spread informed awareness of healthy choices. It has three major components: Fuel (nutrition), Play (physical activity) and Work (workplace wellness). The result is that FitWorth is creating a citywide culture that values health by providing opportunities such as: community-wide challenges for tracking physical activity and nutrition in community centers, schools, and the workplace, an annual healthy Culinary Competition, and programs to support low-income children and schools participating in existing community-based physical activities. FitWorth also partners to promote and engage the community in the mayor's rolling town halls, Tour de Fort Worth, and Mayor's Triathlon. Each of FitWorth's partnerships and programs is focused on inclusivity, accessibility, sustainability, and measurable impact. FitWorth incorporates behavior change theory into its activities, which recognizes that individuals have to understand the risk of poor health in a personal way and then believe in their ability to take effective action. The program educates about the dangers of poor nutrition and physical inactivity in a non-judgmental way and then provides opportunities to take immediate action with proven results, compelling the community to truly change. By engaging more than 20,000 children in educational and participation-based programs to improve nutrition and physical activity, this project will directly address the fact that children and adolescents who are obese are twice as likely to be obese as adults, and are therefore more at risk for significant adult health problems. Quantitative data to measure this effort is collected through three community-based wellness tracking challenges. Between 2013 and 2014, 25,000 individuals participated in team-based health tracking challenges, which increased behavioral awareness through actively monitoring activity and nutrition, alongside weekly education and supported access to healthy choices. This includes 22,100 FWISD students (27% total student population) and 1,093 Camp Fort Worth participants.
TMA Foundation celebrates the legacy of John P. McGovern, MD, Houston, which includes his generous support of this program. The award incorporates many of the ideals Dr. McGovern valued including high impact, innovative programs that improve the health of all Texans and that are "champions" of good health in their communities. A noted allergist, scholar, philanthropist, long-time donor to TMA Foundation, and "Champion of Health," John P. McGovern, MD endowed the foundation's prestigious Champion of Health Award in 2004 to recognize outstanding community-based programs that promote good health through partnerships and measurable results. Dr. McGovern was passionately interested in the history and the philosophy of medicine and helped to found the American Osler Society, which honors medicine's important historical figures and stresses a physician's need to be ethical, charitable and intellectually resourceful. He received dozens of awards for his research, service and philanthropy including The Private Sector Initiative Commendation from former President Ronald Reagan and The Surgeon General's Medallion awarded by C. Everett Koop, MD, ScD. TMA Foundation is proud to honor his memory by presenting this award.

Last of Robin Hood also centers on a young woman who falls for a rakish older movie star.
Sometimes his leather jackets were sporty and rakish, at others they were sculpted into prim, hourglass shapes.
The prince was rakish and clever and yes, even charming at times.
And my Aura must be deaf to rakish young beaux and their compliments.
He bowed, rakish and smiling, with all the airs of a dancing master.
We were real characters by now with our leather jackets, rakish hats and our 45's in our shoulder holsters.
He was leaning back in a morris chair, rakish, debonair, and at his ease.
"I never was so scared in all my life," stated Lois Daggett, straightening her hat which had assumed a rakish angle over one ear.
I do not know what a rakish craft is; but this was very rakish and very crafty.
Some were arrayed in tattered dressing-gowns, and had a look of rakish fashion.
1706, "debauched, disreputable," from rake (n.2) + -ish. Related: Rakishly; rakishness.
The meaning "smart, jaunty, dashing" (1824) is said to be a different word, probably from rake "slant, slope" (1620s), used especially in reference to a ship's hull or sails, of uncertain origin, perhaps from Scandinavian (cf. Old Swedish raka "project, reach;" Danish rage "protrude, project") related to Old English reccan "stretch." "The piratical craft of former times were distinguished for their rakish build" [Century Dictionary].

Healthcare Equipment and Supplies
Company Overview of Neuro Kinetics, Inc.
Company Overview
128 Gamma Drive
Pittsburgh, PA 15238
United States
Founded in 1984
Key Executives for Neuro Kinetics, Inc.
Neuro Kinetics, Inc. Key Developments
Neuro Kinetics, Inc. (NKI) has contracted with Allegheny General Hospital (AGH) to collaborate on the analysis of clinical trials underway at two military medical facilities. The analysis, partially funded through a contract by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), is gauging NKI's I-Portal eye movement-tracking technology for the diagnosis and monitoring of mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (mTBI), also known as concussions. The research builds on the company's existing I-Portal diagnostic platform, currently utilized in its equipment used clinically for detection of vestibular and equilibrium issues. The I-Portal technology measures the eye's response and reflexes to a variety of stimuli. NKI seeks to demonstrate that by using I-Portal's sophisticated yet quick and noninvasive testing of abnormal eye movements, physicians will be provided with objective data to aid in the detection of concussive symptoms. The military clinical trials are at Naval Hospital San Diego (California) and Madigan Army Medical Center (Washington State). NKI and AGH previously collaborated on a research project that tested high school athletes in Western Pennsylvania. Data collected in the previous NKI/AGH study is being included in the new analysis, as will results from existing concussion diagnostic protocols such as ImPACT and the Sports Concussion Assessment Tool (SCAT). The ultimate goal of the DoD-funded work is to accelerate validation and commercialization of NKI's oculomotor (eye movement) tests for brain injuries. NKI expects to request clearance from the U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for a new testing protocol for the diagnosis of concussions on the battlefield, at sporting events and in workplaces. (NKI's devices have FDA clearance for the clinical testing of vestibular and equilibrium disorders.) Schroeder added that while much research and regulatory review remains to be completed before the company can market a new diagnostic tool for brain injuries, the early research is promising.
Neuro Kinetics Inc. announced that Michael Saporito has been appointed as its chief financial officer. The company also said that Robert Kampmeinert has been elected to its board of directors. Saporito's most recent post was as vice president at the LifeVest division of Zoll Medical. He helped lead the turnaround of LifeVest and its subsequent acquisition by Zoll. Robert Kampmeinert retired in 2010 as chairman of Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, a major investment and investment banking firm headquartered in Philadelphia.

Walt Disney World, of course! When I found out graduation was going to be the same week we had booked our vacation, I called to see whether there was a computer I could use to view the ceremony. On graduation day, my friend and I went down to the Business Center, where we were told we could use a computer for a minimal charge. We made a brief stop at a gift shop to purchase the essential graduation mortarboard, complete with fuzzy Mickey ears. After a little difficulty, we finally connected to the ceremony site. Neil Armstrong's words were inspiring. I watched as each of my classmates' names were written over the computer. When my name came up, the whole Business Center cheered and applauded.

way to track value. The currency in your pocket doesn't even represent the sum total of all "money" in circulation. Most money exists only as data in computers. And every kind of currency can be counterfeited or hacked. The fact that it
be counterfeited doesn't mean it loses value, it just means it's important to make doing so illegal and/or incredibly difficult. Latinum can be replicated, but doing it may be illegal (and send a red flag to the authorities) or so incredibly difficult to do that it's not worth the effort (except for a few smart, ambitious or stubborn individuals).
Latinum probably functions the
same way, and perhaps in a more complex way, too. This is the currency of an interstellar society with access to technologies we lack. The value of latinum may be present as "molecular serial numbers", or something. I don't know. BUT, I do know that assuming a culture as complex as the Ferengi, specialized in financial and business systems, shouldn't be thought of as engaging in mere
with pieces of
. On the other hand, they may prefer to be thought of as simplistic barbarians using baubles as currency, to make their opponents (both military and business) underestimate them - and allow them to gain the upper hand!

Even though they totally hit the reset button (except for Steve who's still dead) it won't be without consequences. Usually in a sci-fi/fantasy show the reset button is hit and that's it but here it looks like it will cause some bad shit to happen so that's cool.

Why see a Psychotherapist? Family and friends may help you feel better about problems and even offer good advice and yet, you and perhaps your family, still can't move forward. This is when a Psychotherapist, someone professionally trained in relationships, communication improvement treating mental health issues can help. What are some of the benefits of seeing a Psychotherapist? The client is the focus. There are no expectations except payment. The client can be honest without worrying about offending friends or family and, your information stays in the office. The therapist is trained in therapeutic principles and technique and know what questions to ask.
Taking a patients medical , family background and history to diagnos a problem. I have the patient write out their thoughts, fantasies and dreams to investigate the subconscious. Psycotherapy takes alot of introspection and is a long term therapy designed to help the patient to gain a greater understanding of themselves and their life. It is not for mmdiate changes and not just for the patient who is mentallly ill or in crisis. It is designed to help the patient know themselves and make decisions conducive to their self empowerment, value system and life goals.
Psychotherapy is working with my clients and the goals that they would like to meet through the process. It's my job to facilitate the change and find the magic within the client that will bring them to a healthier life. Change is not easy and no one likes it! However, I have seen change happen which is why I continue to do this work and challenge my clients to reach their goals.
Mental health means different things to different people and to different therapists. It is not always so simple. Some people who seek my services are ill and need to see a therapist to remain functional. For others, psychotherapy is a type of luxury that gives a deeper dimension to their lives,but yes..they would be fine without it. The process of psychotherapy is similar regardless, as I cautiously and respectfully enter another person's private world and try to untangle the the parts that cause distress and discomfort.
Psychotherapy is just so different than talking to a friend. I tailor each therapeutic experience to each individual who seeks self awareness and understanding.
A fulfilling, meaningful life. Many of us yearn for it and have struggled for it, with little success. Perhaps anxiety, fear, or depression get in your way. Maybe you're wrestled down by unwanted, unpleasant memories of a difficult past. For some, the pathway may be blocked by the effects of alcohol or drug use. Has anger often knocked you off balance? My approach to psychotherapy, which relies heavily on research-supported methods in the Cognitive-Behavioral, Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) traditions, seeks to restore your path to that meaningful life by helping you navigate those painful emotions, thoughts, memories and experiences that seem to hold you back.
As a psychotherapist I work with individuals and families that are dealing with life's challenges including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and family conflict. My approach is to help you understand yourself and to utilize your strengths to grow and overcome these challenges. Life can be difficult. You don't need to deal with these challenges alone. Let me give you the tools you need to successfully conquer these difficulties. I will help you believe in yourself and to find joy once again.
My psychotherapy practice includes a variety of modalities developed over 20 years of experience working with clients. It always begins and ends with our relationship. I am an empathic, supportive, and engaging partner, and I help clients set and achieve personal goals. Therapy with me is an enjoyable process that clients look forward to as they begin to feel better and move closer to their desired outcomes.
We use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when working with children and adults. This is a scientifically-based and very successful method to treat anxiety, depression and many other conditions. This can help clients see how distortions in their picture of what's going on in their life can make them feel anxious, depressed or angry for no good reason. Behavior therapy helps people modify the connections between problematic situations and their habitual reactions to them.
This is the basis of all therapy. It is helping an Individual family or group by using a clinically trained professional to assist these person(s) Emotional disturbances happen at various times in our lives and we are usually unprepared for the fallout it has in our live. Working with an experienced clinician can many times help illuminate the issues and how to obtain some tools to deal with these emotional experiences

Pregnancy and Immunizations
For pregnant women, whose immune system defenses are naturally lowered, the stakes for getting any type of infection are high. Two recent studies make prevention—against one common and one not-so-common illness—a priority. We talked with Dr. Jane Dimer, a Group Health obstetrics and gynecology specialist, about the Danish study linking pregnant women who have had the flu with autism in their children, as well as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) new recommendations for whooping cough vaccinations following case numbers in epidemic proportions in Washington last year. The bottom line, according to Dimer: "In general, there are things that are preventable and things that are not. I believe that we should all use immunizations more."
What type of risk does the flu generally pose to a pregnant woman's health? Flu and things that affect the lung system are particularly dangerous for pregnant women simply because their immune system [and] breathing systems are different, and they are not able to fight off infections as well. The problems can snowball. It also increases the risk of early labor; it's both a risk to mom and baby.
What should pregnant women know about the study that links the flu to a risk of having a child with autism? The risk is higher in women who get flu than those who get the flu shot. [According to the study] a woman who has had the flu while pregnant is twice as likely to have a child with autism.
Why is whooping cough in the news again? We [in Seattle and King County] are the hotbed for whooping cough. I cannot say for sure why—we used to say that you get the immunization once in your life; then we said every five years. The newest recommendation from the CDC [is] that women get it every pregnancy because that's when the baby is going to be receiving the antibodies, especially later in the term.
What other preventive measures should pregnant women take? They should wash their hands; they should not smoke or do anything making their breathing system weak. Immunize your loved ones; anyone you're going to be smooching and who is smooching your baby. They should be immunized for whooping cough and pneumonia—chicken pox needs to be considered as well.
Are flu shot side effects an issue? If you are allergic to eggs, there can be a problem, but people can be desensitized to that. Work with your primary care physician to figure out a solution. [Otherwise,] the most common side effect of a flu shot is a little soreness; Tylenol [acetaminophen] will take care of it, and it's safe for pregnant women to take.

Hi! I've looked around, but can't see any that fit the exact description. I looked here:
http://www.frenchconnection.com/category/Man+Collections+Jeans/Mens+Jeans.html because I'm sure I've seen special edition jeans with a similar motif. FC make good jeans .. there may be more beyond this link, but I haven't explored further yet.
Other than that, I can only suggest Joe Browns. I have their catalogue around my flat here somewhere and will have a butcher's hook for you!
I have a leather jacket with a bull skull on it.. but that's not what you're after!
Yeah thanks for both of the replies! But I was still unable to find the exact pair that I am looking for. It's so frustrating that I can't find this stupid pair of jeans!!
