OpenOffice Impress Design Proposals in Final Lap
Project Renaissance of OpenOffice.org opened up proposals for "Access Functionality" design changes for its office suite on April 20, 2009. The Impress presentation application was chosen as the Guinea pig. Deadline for submissions is just around the corner: May 4, 2009.
The project called in all hands to improve OpenOffice's user interface by using Impress. The independent and optimally innovative designs are to be submitted as graphics files and published on the deadline date of May 4, 2009. The focus is on the information architecture, such as grouping of elements, and not on visual effects, such as gradients, shadows or transparency.
The ten-day period following the deadline will involve community review of the submissions. Designers will have a chance until May 15 to revise their designs. Further plans weren't established, but the end goal is to integrate the designs into a new user interface for OpenOffice. As the Project Renaissance call for proposals website declares, the mission is to "create a user interface so that OpenOffice.org becomes the users' choice not only out of need, but also out of desire." The call for proposals provides a submission procedure and a set of guidelines or principles, "although any ideas are welcome."
The project provides a design proposal template .odp file to use with the Impress presentation software. The overall task focus is to develop new concepts in Impress, although "you may use anything else that you are comfortable with."

1998 Pontiac Transport • 170,000 miles
I need to know where the wires go on a starter for a 1998 pontiac transport. I read that if the wires are not hooked up right the "abs, brake, and tcs light" would all remain on. I called the chevy dealership and they told me I put three wires (red with fusible link going to orange, red with fusible link going to black and the wire from the battery) all on the one big post. The purple wire goes to the starter solenoid. I did exactly what they said and all those lights are still on. Also, I have a wire with a sensor that comes out of big wiring harness that comes out of the fuse box under the hood. I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THIS WIRE GOES OR WHAT THE HECK IT IS! It can reach all the way across the motor but it is bent like it turned a corner or something. It was plugged in but now I have no idea where it was plugged in cause I let someone take it apart for me. And to top it off my air conditioning is NOT working and won't take anymore refrigerant in the system and it only took 2.2 pounds which I swear it should take more (but I don't know cause autozone was giving me ounces and it confused me.I am only one woman! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

First thing go to the people whoFIX cars not sell parts. Ok i'm sending a diagram which you should be able to print. But the big black wire and the two wires i've circled in green go to the big post on the solenoid. The purple wire goes to the "S" terminal on the solenoid. The wire that comes out of the fuse box I need to know what color it is. The a/c may be another problem but we need to know what color it is in stead of a big wire lol.
Its a black and blue wire in a plastic wrapper with a little plug the plug is blue and white. It has two holes in the end

The only one I can see goes to the idleair control. There may already be a grnblk wire hooked to it. I've sent a picture and hopefully it wil be large enough.
If you can send a picture of it that may be better help for me if it doesnt' work
DWe think it is the plug for the underhood light. The other thing you mentioned is hooked up. Unfortunately my hood doesn't have a light so I can't test my theory. Do you know why the airbag light would come on and stay on. We checked fuses to no luck. We also still have a break light on with an abs light and tcs light. I am assuming all these lights are somehow connected but no one can seem to tell me.

The rest of that will have to be checked with a scanner, you will need a pro do that as the auto parts scanner won't. So amechanic will have to scan it. But you could check fuses in the underhoodfuse block. They should be marked in the cover as to which one they are. You may have an abs traction problem but it could be a broken wire also. Your brakes will work just your abs won't. So it woud be like driving an older car without abs.

low and overtake you after you had started. For now especially I should like to be with you to see with my own eyes how much strength you are gaining, what weight that delicate frame of yours is putting on, and whether you are enjoying yourself without let or hindrance in the retirement and among the rich, generous pleasures of Campania. I am quite anxiously longing to hear that you are strong again, for it makes one nervous and troubled to get no news of those whom we love very dearly, when they are away from us, and your absence, coupled with your weak state of health, keeps me constantly upon the rack. I am afraid of all sorts of things; I fancy anything mayhave happened, and, like all anxious people, I am especially given to conjuring up the thoughts that I most dread. I intreat you, therefore, to remember how nervous I am about you, and to write me once, or even twice a day. For while I am reading your letters, I shall feel easier in my mind, though, when I have read through to the end, my fears will immediately recur. Farewell.
YOU ask me to send you an account of my uncle's death, so that you may be able to give posterity an accurate description of it. I am much obliged to you, for I can see that the immortality of his fame is well assured, if you take in hand to write of it.

Pope Francis to visit Holy Land in May
Pontiff will visit Jerusalem, Bethlehem in the West Bank and also Amman in Jordan
Pope Francis waves as he leads the Angelus prayer from the window of the Apostolic palace in Saint Peter's Square today. Photograph: Reuters
Pope Francis this morning confirmed he will visit the Holy Land in May.
Speaking at his Sunday Angelus in a rain-soaked St. Peter's Square, the Pope said: "God willing, I will make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land from May 24th to May 26th next".
The Pope outlined some details of his itinerary, saying he would visit Amman in Jordan, as well as Bethlehem and Jerusalem.
He also indicated one of the key moments of the trip will be an Ecumenical Meeting at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, a meeting due to be attended by Orthodox Christian Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople, as well as representatives of other Christian Churches in Jerusalem.
For some time, there had been speculation the Pope would announce this trip during the Christmas-New Year period.
In the end, Francis chose to make the announcement on the day that marks the 50th anniversary of an historic meeting between Pope Paul VI and Patriarch Athenagoras in Jerusalem on January 5th, 1964.
The Pope said one of the main reasons for making the trip now is to commemorate the visit made by his predecessor.
The Pope's trip to Israel may not be his only international visit this year since Vatican insiders suggest he is also very keen to visit Asia, with the Philippines, Japan, South Korea and Sri Lanka indicated as possible destinations.

While the resolution of digital cameras has improved it still lags far behind that of film. The lenses for digital cameras do not have to meet the same speciifications as those for film cameras.

Your elbows do need to stay ON your hips (physically touching) AND they need to give and be soft. The hands need to stay closed on the reins and the aids come from the wrist.
Figuring all this out within your own body is a chore, for sure, but you think you have feel now and once your body is really positioned correctly and quietly, the communication between horse and rider becomes crystal clear.

Set during the Tudor period of English history, this historical romance tells the tribulations of Mary Tudor, a younger sister of Henry VIII of England who has fallen in love with a commoner. However, for political reasons, King Henry has arranged for her to wed the King Louis XII of France and demands his sister put the House of Tudor first, threatening, ''You will marry France and I will give you a wedding present - Charles Brandon's head!'' Followed by Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall.
Aware of this, Brandon knew that victory was his, and that soon he would have avenged the murders that had gone before. He saw that his adversary was strong neither in wind nor arm, and had not the skill to penetrate his guard in a week's trying, so he determined to fight on the defensive until Judson's strength should wane, and then kill him when and how he chose.
After a time Judson began to breathe hard and his thrusts to lack force.
"Boy, I would spare you," he said; "I have killed enough of your tribe; put up your sword and call it quits."
Young Brandon replied: "Stand your ground, you coward; you will be a dead man as soon as you grow a little weaker; if you try to run I will thrust you through the neck as I would a cur. Listen how you snort. I shall soon have you; you are almost gone. You would spare me, would you? I could preach a sermon or dance a hornpipe while I am killing you. I will not break my sword against your coat of mail, but will wait until you fall from weakness and

Rep. Nancy Landry wants couples to know additional costs with covenant marriages.
- Filed Under
BATON ROUGE - Louisiana couples considering getting married under the auspices of a state-sanctioned covenant marriage should know ahead of time that there are additional costs and a much more difficult task of ending the marriage if it doesn't work out, says Rep. Nancy Landry, R-Lafayette.
The House Civil Law and Procedure Committee Tuesday approved a substitute bill for Landry's original HB738, which sought to inject language about the costs into the act establishing covenant marriages.
Landry said the Family Forum, which pushed for the law establishing covenant marriages in 1997, ...

Are you sure they arent?
Iron Monger < Whiplash < Mandarin
Lizard < Electro < Green Goblin
Scarecrow < Joker < Bane
Seems like the good ones are. Or if you prefer, lets get away from CBMs...
Le Chiffre < Greene < Silva
Barbosa < Davy Jones < Calypso
Nero < John Harrison (or whoever the hell Cumberbatch is playing)
So lets take your theory and run with it.
"it's about compelling storytelling and interesting characters. It's perfectly acceptable for the Avengers to fight Thanos in one film, and Paste-Pot Pete in the next"
Lets assume that for the sake of argument, all movies ever have compelling storytelling and interesting characters. Not too much of a stretch when it comes to Marvel/Disney. What then, is the next step as far as improvement? Probably creating a series that progresses logically and rationally keeps us intrigued with the conflict and action sequences? So then wouldnt part of that "compelling storytelling" include Joss Whedon making an intelligent trilogy and knowing how it progresses before telling it? Knowing where it ends before it begins? Why progress in a downward direction regarding threat, and an upward direction regarding the overall power level and teamwork functionality of The Avengers? That, my friend, seems unintelligent.
I think we might have to agree to disagree on this one Sam. I would not pay to see Paste Pot Pete after already seeing The Avengers face Thanos.

Although rural Canadians are reported to have higher rates of diabetes than others, little is known about the relative influence of known versus agriculture-related risk factors. The purpose of this research was to carry out a comprehensive study of prevalence, risk factors and co-morbidities of diabetes among adults in rural Saskatchewan and to determine possible differences between those living on and off farms.
In 2010, we conducted a baseline mail-out survey (Saskatchewan Rural Health Study) of 11,982 households located in the province′s four agricultural quadrants. In addition to self-reported physician-diagnosed diabetes, the questionnaire collected information from farm and small town cohorts on possible diabetes determinants including lifestyle, family history, early life factors and environmental/agricultural-related exposures. Clustering effect within households was adjusted using Generalized Estimating Equations approach.
Responses were obtained from 4624 (42%) households comprising 8208 males and females aged 18 years or older and 7847 self-described Caucasian participants (7708 with complete information). The overall age-standardized diabetes prevalence for the latter was 6.35% but people whose primary residence was on farms had significantly lower diabetes prevalence than those living in non-farm locations (5.11% versus 7.33% respectively; p<0.0001). Diabetes risk increased with age and affected almost 17% of those older than 65 (OR 2.57; CI′ 1.63, 4.04 compared to those aged 18–45). Other known independent risk factors included family history of diabetes (OR 2.50 [CI′s 1.94, 3.23] if father; OR 3.11 [CI′s 2.44, 3.98] if mother), obesity (OR 2.66; CI′s 1.86, 3.78), as well as lower socioeconomic status, minimal/no alcohol intake and smoking. The most original finding was that exposure to insecticides conferred an increased risk for diabetes among males (OR 1.83; CI′s 1.15, 2.91). Finally, the co-morbidities with the strongest independent association with diabetes were heart disease and hypertension.
While known diabetes risk factors are important determinants of diabetes in the agricultural zones of Saskatchewan, on-farm residence is protective and appears related to increased outdoor activities. In contrast, we have now shown for the first time that exposure to insecticides is an independent risk factor for diabetes among men in rural Canada.
Keywords:Diabetes; Rural; Agriculture; Insecticides; Farm; Exposures
Over the past several decades, type 2 diabetes mellitus has emerged as one of the most important chronic diseases affecting Canadian adults [1], largely related to changing lifestyles and other environmental factors associated with increasing rates of overweight/obesity [2]. Diabetes now accounts for a substantial proportion of the morbidity caused by blindness, lower limb amputations and end stage renal failure as well as deaths caused by coronary artery disease and stroke [3]. These chronic complications not only have an enormous impact on affected individuals and their families but also consume an increasing share of health care resources [3]. Despite these sobering facts, quality of diabetes care as reflected by achievement of clinical practice guidelines is less than optimal [4] and effective primary prevention initiatives remain elusive.
In Saskatchewan, we recently reported on the epidemiology of diabetes among First Nations and non-First Nations adults from 1980 to 2005 using health care system administrative databases [5]. During that period, diabetes prevalence more than doubled among both First Nations and non-First Nations women and more than tripled among their male counterparts. By 2005, 6.24% of non-First Nations men and 5.51% of non-FN women had diabetes while age adjusted diabetes prevalence was 16.01% and 20.33% among First Nations men and women respectively. Unfortunately, because of the limitations of administrative data, we were not able to study the contribution of known diabetes risk factors. We were also not able to determine if there were differences in rates of diabetes between urban and rural dwellers in Saskatchewan.
Given the impact of diabetes at the individual and social level as well as the lack of research regarding diabetes in rural populations, the purpose of this research was to use data from the Saskatchewan Rural Health Study [6] to carry out a comprehensive study of prevalence, risk factors and co-morbid conditions among a sample of non-First Nations adults living in the agricultural zones of Saskatchewan. By doing so, we sought to determine if there were differences in diabetes prevalence between rural dwellers and its known occurrence in the overall population of Saskatchewan [5], whether diabetes rates varied by agricultural region and farm/non-farm habitation, and if there were unique risk factors for diabetes that were related to agricultural practices.
Study design and population
The Saskatchewan Rural Health Study (SRHS) is a prospective cohort study examining the health of people living in rural Saskatchewan and includes both a baseline phase in 2010 (detailed descriptions of survey and variables reported elsewhere) [6] and a follow-up phase planned for 2014. The baseline survey phase of the study was approved by the University of Saskatchewan biomedical ethics review board. Briefly, 39 of the 297 rural municipalities and 16 of the 145 towns (usual population 500 to 5000) in Saskatchewan were selected to participate in the study. These rural municipalities and towns were selected at random from four quadrants of the province (Southeast, Southwest, Northeast, and Northwest). The local councils for 32 (82%) of 39 rural municipalities and 15 (94%) of 16 towns agreed to participate on behalf of their residents and supplied mailing addresses for the survey. Dillman′s method, which involves a series of mail contacts with all prospective participants, was utilized to recruit study participants [6,7]. After excluding ineligible households (e.g. addresses unknown or outside study area, duplicates, deceased), information on variables based on the Population Health Framework [8,9] and described below was collected by self-administered questionnaires. These questionnaires were mailed to 11,004 households. Some measures of lifestyle factors, occupational exposures, and socio-economic status used in our questionnaire were adopted from previous research studies that had validated these measures [8,10,11].
Primary health outcome
The primary outcome for this part of the study was self-reported physician-diagnosed diabetes, as determined from the baseline survey question: "Has a doctor ever said you had … diabetes".
Contextual factors
The contextual factors of interest in the study were: (i) rural dwelling – residence on a farm or non-farm location (including town and self-described acreage), (ii) socioeconomic status (household income adequacy) – household income adequacy was a derived variable with four categories based on total household income and number of people living in the household according to the Statistics Canada definition [12], and (iii) interior environment (smoking inside the house) – based on whether or not any household dweller used cigarettes, cigars and/or pipes in the home.
Individual factors
The individual factors considered were: (i) family history of diabetes among first degree relatives (father, mother, brother/sister), (ii) lifestyle or behavior-related factors including smoking, alcohol use, body mass index (BMI) calculated by dividing weight in kg by height in m2 (overweight =BMI 25–29.9; obesity = BMI 30 and higher),physical activity and television and computer viewing time; (iii) environmental and occupational exposures including grain dust, mine dust, asbestos dust, wood dust, other dust, livestock, smoke from stubble burning, diesel fumes, welding fumes, solvent fumes, oil/gas well fumes, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, molds, radiation and other exposures (information was also collected on the frequency and duration of exposures) and (iv) individual educational attainment.
Information was obtained on important covariates such as age, sex, marital status, ethnicity and selected co-morbid conditions including hypertension, heart disease, heart attack, stroke, hardening of the arteries, tuberculosis, cancer and several indicators of chronic lung disease.
Statistical analysis
Statistical analysis was conducted using SAS 9.02 (SAS Institution, Cary, NC). Prevalence was presented as observed/total and percentage. We calculated both crude and age adjusted prevalence standardized to the 2006 Canadian census population. We also calculated age adjusted prevalence standardized to the 1991 Canadian census population for participants aged 20 and older so that comparisons to historical data could be made. Chi-square tests were used to determine the univariate association of prevalence of diabetes and location of residence. Logistic regression models were used to predict the relationship between a binary diagnosis of diabetes (yes or no) and a set of explanatory variables. A multilevel logistic regression modeling approach based on a generalized estimating equations, with individuals (1st level) nested within households (2nd level), was utilized to evaluate the effects of both contextual and individual factors after adjustment for covariates of interest. This accounts for the within-subject dependencies that occur in the analysis due to multiple people from the same household. A series of multi-level models were fitted to determine whether potential risk factors, confounders, and interactive effects (e.g. individual and contextual risk factors) contributed significantly to the prevalence of diabetes. Based on bi-variable analysis, variables with p<0.20 were candidates for the multivariate model. All variables that were statistically significant (p<0.05) as well as important contextual factors (location of residence), were retained in the final multivariable model. A parsimonious model was selected based on QIC (Quasi likelihood under the Independence model Criteria) goodness-of-fit statistic [13,14]. The strength of associations is presented by odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI).
Table 1 shows baseline information for the study population in 2010. Of the 11,004 eligible addresses in the study areas to which surveys were sent, responses were obtained from 4624 (42%) households comprising 8208 males and females aged 18 years or older who lived on an identified farm/non-farm location. Because very few individuals indicated ethnic background as First Nations, Metis or other (or the question was not answered), we subsequently confined our analyses to the 7708 people with a self-described Caucasian heritage. Table 1 also shows distribution of study participants and crude diabetes prevalence by geographic location and farm/non-farm residence. Although overall unadjusted diabetes prevalence was similar between Saskatchewan′s agricultural zones, it ranged from 8.0% (lowest) in the northwest quadrant to 10.4% (highest) in the northeast quadrant and, in each quadrant, was significantly higher among non-farm compared to farm residents. Overall, 10.7% of non-farm residents and 6.9% of farm residents reported a physician-diagnosis of diabetes (p<0.001). Table 2 shows the overall crude as well as age-standardized prevalence of diabetes by residence location in those aged 20 and older. After adjusting for age, diabetes prevalence remained significantly higher for those living in non-farm compared to farm locations (7.3% and 5.1% respectively; p<0.0001).
Table 1. Saskatchewan rural health study – study populations and diabetes numbers – adults 18 and older
Table 2. Crude & age standardized diabetes prevalence by farm/non-farm residence –adults 18 and older
Crude diabetes prevalence was significantly higher (P=0.002) among men (10.1%) compared to women (8.1%). However, when differences in age between males and females were taken into account, there was no significant difference in diabetes prevalence at 6.5% and 6.1% respectively.
Tables 3 and 4 show the unadjusted relationships between key variables and diabetes. Those with diabetes were more likely to be older, married or widowed, and to have lower levels of income and education. Diabetes was also more common among those living in non-farm dwellings and those residing in the north-east agricultural zone of Saskatchewan. However, for those living on farms, diabetes risk was not related to the type of agricultural activity (growing grain versus raising cattle). Hereditary and early life factors clearly discriminated between those with and without diabetes. The impact of family history was particularly striking with progressively increasing diabetes risk with a diabetic father, diabetic mother and both parents having diabetes. Diabetes was also more likely among those who had lower birth weights (<2500 grams), had been breast fed and had lived on a farm during their first year of life. Maternal smoking status during pregnancy did not affect diabetes risk.
Table 3. Relationship between diabetes and individual characteristics on univariate analysis
Table 4. Relationship between diabetes and individual characteristics on univariate analysis
Several measures reflecting lifestyle were significantly associated with diabetes including increasing body mass index, decreasing daily time spent at exercise and being a current or ex-smoker. Alcohol consumption appeared protective as did increasing time spent at a computer. In contrast, watching television or videos was significantly associated with diabetes but only when it occupied >20 hours per week.
For the most part, agricultural and other rural exposures were not significantly associated with diabetes. These included grain, mine, asbestos and wood dusts; molds; diesel, welding, solvent and oil/gas well fumes; and radiation exposure. However, Table 4 shows that exposure to livestock, smoke from stubble burning, and herbicides, fungicides and insecticides resulted in modest but significant relationships with diabetes. Exposure to "other" dusts (mostly from households, soil/dirt, roads, fertilizers, construction and forage crops) was inversely related to diabetes.
Table 5 summarizes the physician-diagnosed co-morbidities associated with diabetes. Cardiovascular disorders exhibited odds ratios (ORs) of 3.01 (hardening of the arteries) to 5.21 (high blood pressure) among people with diabetes compared to others, while tuberculosis also demonstrated a strong relationship. Cancer and chronic lung disorders displayed less striking but still largely significant associations with diabetes. Diagnosed sleep apnea and related symptoms (Epworth sleepiness scale and snoring) demonstrated particularly significant associations with diabetes.
Table 5. Prevalence of diabetes and univariate associations with co-morbidities
Table 6 provides the results of the final logistic regression model of the relationship between independent variables and self-reported physician-diagnosed diabetes. After adjusting for other variables in the model, sex, marital status, education level and agricultural quadrant of Saskatchewan were no longer significantly associated with diabetes. However, decreasing income and non-farm rural dwelling remained important independent predictors of diabetes as did family history of diabetes. With respect to life style factors, being obese continued to be a significant risk factor for diabetes while regular alcohol consumption remained protective. Exposure to dusts other than from grain, mine, asbestos and wood also appeared to protect against diabetes.
Table 6. Odds ratios of diabetes risk based on multivariate logistic regression analysis
Figures 1 and 2 show that both smoking and exposure to insecticides were significant predictors of diabetes in an interaction with male sex. Current male smokers were almost three times more likely and male ex-smokers almost twice as likely as male non-smokers to have diabetes while diabetes risk for women was not significantly associated with smoking status. Similarly, insecticide exposure almost doubled the risk for diabetes among men but was not a predictor of diabetes among women. In a sub-analysis of the interaction between sex and insecticides that determined diabetes prevalence for men by age group (not shown), there was a trend for higher diabetes prevalence in younger men (age groups ≤65 years) exposed to insecticides compared to those >65% years.

Figure 2. Interaction between Insecticide Exposure and Sex.
With respect to co-morbidities, only heart disease, high blood pressure and snoring were independently related to diabetes when the general health index was excluded from the model.
This study describes the epidemiology of diabetes among adults of self-identified Caucasian heritage living in the agricultural area of rural Saskatchewan in 2010. Although the overall diabetes prevalence of 6.4% age standardized to the 2006 Canadian population was slightly higher than the combined prevalence (5.9%) for rural plus urban non-First Nations males and females in Saskatchewan in 2005 [5], when we standardized this study′s data to the same Canadian census population (1991) as the latter study, the value of 5.8% was almost identical. We did not observe the higher prevalence of diabetes among males in rural Saskatchewan as we had for the province overall [5] but did find that people whose primary residence was on farms had significantly lower diabetes prevalence than those living in non-farm locations. As with other Canadians [1], diabetes risk increased with age and affected almost 17% of those older than 65. Other known independent risk factors included family history of diabetes, obesity, lower socioeconomic status, minimal/no alcohol intake and smoking. The most original finding of this study was that exposure to insecticides conferred an increased risk for diabetes among males. Finally, the co-morbidities with the strongest independent association with diabetes among rural adults in Saskatchewan were heart disease and hypertension.
Although rural Canadians [15] including those in Saskatchewan [16] are reported to have higher diabetes prevalence than those living in urban centers, our findings suggest that this may only be true for people living in non-farm locations. Diabetes prevalence in the latter was 7.3% compared to 5.1% among those living on farms. After adjusting for possible differences in age, obesity levels and other known diabetes risk factors, it is likely that there are at least two reasons for this observation. First, many people who retire from farming activities move into local communities and some do so because of pre-existing health conditions including diabetes. Second, despite increased mechanization, farming still requires being physically active and working outside. These activities are protective against diabetes [17,18] and may explain the finding that exposure to "other dusts" was associated with a lower risk of diabetes. In fact, "other dusts" largely included those encountered outdoors and we believe it is a surrogate for time spent outside – this is more likely among physically active people including farmers.
As expected, known risk factors for diabetes were significant independent diabetes predictors in this study as well. The exception was evidence of physical inactivity (minimal daily exercise duration and prolonged television viewing) that were associated with diabetes on univariate analysis but not after adjusting for other variables. Interestingly, having a mother with diabetes was a stronger determinant of diabetes than having a diabetic father and may relate to the increased intergenerational risk for diabetes conferred by diabetic pregnancies [19]. As others have shown [20], we found a protective effect of moderate alcohol consumption on diabetes risk compared to minimal intake. Heavier alcohol intake (4–7 times per week) was also protective but not to the same degree. We also found that smoking was a risk factor for diabetes but only among men. Large studies have shown a link between smoking and type 2 diabetes in both men and women [21] but this association is dose-related [22] and the interaction that we found with sex could possibly be explained by heavier smoking among men.
Having diabetes was strikingly related to study participants′ perception of declining general health. Not surprisingly, multivariate analysis showed that heart disease and hypertension were the most significantly associated co-morbidities but snoring was also strongly and independently linked to diabetes. The latter is most likely due to the known relationship between type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea [23]. This relationship is due at least in part to their common risk factor of obesity although there may be other interrelated factors that contribute to the pathogenesis of both.
As far as we are aware, this is the first study to show a relationship between insecticide exposure and diabetes among Canadian farmers and one of few studies to observe this relationship after adjusting for the contribution of both a large number of other environmental exposures and known diabetes risk factors. There is increasing evidence for a cause-effect link between environmental toxicants and diabetes [24-27] that is related to adipose tissue accumulation and reported effects on insulin production/resistance [28,29]. As with smoking, we found an interaction with sex; men but not women experienced a significant risk of diabetes with insecticide exposure and a plausible explanation relates to the fact that men are more likely to work directly with these products. Importantly, we also found that this relationship has been stronger in recent decades than previously. This may indicate that, despite better equipment and safer use of chemicals, our increasing dependency on their use to support modern agricultural practices is not without significant health risks. Interestingly, although herbicides and fungicides also demonstrated positive associations with diabetes in our univariate analysis, they did not emerge as independent risk factors in multivariate analysis. However, it is likely that there is substantial overlap in the use of all three products, so we are unable to determine if and by how much these chemicals interacted in elevating diabetes risk.
Strengths of this study included its large number of participants, the widely diverse areas of Saskatchewan from which the study population was drawn, stratification by farm/non-farm habitation and our ability to evaluate the relative contribution of an extensive number of both known and potential diabetes risk factors related to personal as well as agricultural activities. Although we were not able to evaluate the role of ethnicity in diabetes risk, we have to some extent controlled for possible genetic factors in our analyses by only including people of European heritage. Limitations included the cross sectional nature of the study and the associated inability to be confident about cause-effect relationships. We were not able to distinguish between types 1 and 2 diabetes but over 90% of diabetic adults have type 2 diabetes. Although there was a relatively large proportion of non-participation, the moderate response rate of 42% is consistent with mail-out surveys without inducement. Our sample had a similar gender distribution, but a larger proportion of older people, compared to the overall Saskatchewan population residing outside of cities and First Nations reserves. Therefore we may not be able to generalize our findings to the total provincial rural population. There were possible inaccuracies related to self-reporting of both diabetes and potential diabetes risk factors. For example, we were not able to determine the degree of exposure to possible toxicants or their chemical class. Nonetheless, the fact that the relationship between insecticides and diabetes has been shown in other studies, and that we demonstrated an interaction with sex when males are known to be more engaged in chemical spraying, strengthens the biologic plausibility of our findings. Finally, in univariate analysis, we found that maternal breast feeding was predictive of diabetes in the offspring and maternal smoking did not influence the risk for diabetes in the offspring. These somewhat unexpected findings may have been due to a large proportion of respondents not knowing whether or not their mothers had engaged in these practices and an attendant inability to obtain accurate information.
This is the most comprehensive study yet published of diabetes among non-Aboriginal people living in a large rural and predominantly agricultural area of Canada. While previous reports found a higher prevalence of diabetes in rural Canadians, our research found that this was only true for people living in non-farm locations and that those living on farms actually had lower age standardized diabetes rates. Indirect evidence suggests that this may be partly due to increased outdoor activities. In addition to known diabetes risk factors, exposure to insecticides was an independent predictor for diabetes among men. This new finding requires corroboration as well as further studies to define the degree of risk associated with specific agents. However, it is a sobering reminder that modern agricultural practices not only carry with them immediate threats from injuries and noxious exposures, but can also lead to long term health consequences. On an individual level, educational programs aimed at safe use of chemicals and spraying equipment should include awareness of this possible link. On a population level, this information should be part of the debate around the use and impact of such agents on the health of humans, other species and our environment.

text: 10.3886/ICPSR07682.v1 Fowler, Floyd J. Residential Neighborhood Crime Control Project: Hartford, Connecticut, 1973, 1975-1977, 1979 Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research 1984 burglary citizen attitudes communities crime crime control programs crime prevention fear of crime law enforcement neighborhood conditions neighborhoods police citizen interactions police community relations police performance reactions to crime residents robbery urban planning urban population urban problems victimization 1984-03-18 1992-02-16 survey data 7682 1 This data collection contains responses to victimization surveys that were administered as part of both the planning and evaluation stages of the Hartford Project, a crime opportunity reduction program implemented in a residential neighborhood in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1976. The Hartford Project was an experiment in how to reduce residential burglary and street robbery/purse snatching and the fear of those crimes. Funded through the Hartford Institute of Criminal and Social Justice, the project began in 1973. It was based on a new "environmental" approach to crime prevention: a comprehensive and integrative view addressing not only the relationship among citizens, police, and offenders, but also the effect of the physical environment on their attitudes and behavior. The surveys were administered by the Center for Survey Research at the University of Massachusetts at Boston. The Center collected Hartford resident survey data in five different years: 1973, 1975, 1976, 1977, and 1979. The 1973 survey provided basic data for problem analysis and planning. These data were updated twice: in 1975 to gather baseline data for the time of program implementation, and in the spring of 1976 with a survey of households in one targeted neighborhood of Hartford to provide data for the time of implementation of physical changes there. Program evaluation surveys were carried out in the spring of 1977 and two years later in 1979. The procedures for each survey were essentially identical each year in order to ensure comparability across time. The one exception was the 1976 sample, which was not independent of the one taken in 1975. In each survey except 1979, respondents reported on experiences during the preceding 12-month period. In 1979 the time reference was the past two years. The survey questions were very similar from year to year, with 1973 being the most unique. All surveys focused on victimization, fear, and perceived risk of being victims of the target crimes. Other questions explored perceptions of and attitudes toward police, neighborhood problems, and neighbors. The surveys also included questions on household and respondent characteristics.

Hi I haven't posted in a longgg time.
I'm trying to find the manufacture date on a 2-speed automatic Schwinn Twinn I picked up for $20 the other day - all original except the tires and the paint. I finally got enough paint off the serial code (on the rear left dropout) to read it - C67170. The problem is that it seems the codes repeated once or twice in the 50's and 60's. Is there another way to tell how old it is? Oldroads (http://www.oldroads.com/sh_sn.asp) says maybe 1952, but The Cabe (http://thecabe.com/index.asp?F=SchwinnCodes3&D=Features) gives several years for it (and those are Chicago Schwinns only). It looks just like the two below, but blue:
Possible clues:
Built in Chicago
2-speed Bendix automatic
26 x 1 3/4 tires
Blue and white Messenger seats
Dark bluegreen (sparkly) Schwinn hand grips
sticker on rear fender: Schwinn Megalloy by Lester
Can anyone help? Thanks

Throw on some polyester and fire up the 8-track as we take a look at what the "'70s Show" cast is up to these days
'That '70s Show': Where Are They Now?
3 / 11
That '70s Show Where Are They Now
Laura Prepon (Donna Pinciotti)
Prepon played the ultimate tomboy next door as Eric's neighbor and girlfriend, Donna. After eight "'70s" seasons, she jumped right back into series TV with ABC's short-lived dramedy "October Road." A number of guest roles followed ("How I Met Your Mother," "Castle"), but earlier this year, Prepon finally returned to her sitcom roots (and dyed her roots, apparently) to play a young Chelsea Handler on NBC's "Are You There, Chelsea?" (Will "Chelsea" still be there next season, though? That's the real question.)

46 year old woman | Cape Canaveral, FL, United States | Seeking men 30-45 within 50 miles
If you love life then don't waste time because time is what life is made of....
So what does one write to "spark" interest? No idea. Its hard for anyone to sum up their real personality in a few paragraphs... Grew up in West Virginia, lived in NC for 10 years and have been in Florida for 12 now. I miss the the mountains and hiking trails, fall leaves and yes even snow. I have a mountain bike and definitely miss the mountains riding it too. Just started it up again. Morning rides start your day off right! But I also love the beach, the water, swimming, snorkeling in the Keys especially. Just about anything outside really. Have no fear I'm not an adrenaline junkie. I have my lazy days too. If you asked my friends about me the first thing they'd probably say is I don't usually hold much back. Ha ha. But I'm also loyal, open and try to be there when anyone needs me, usually with humor. It can hold you together when not much else will sometimes. I have a good job and I'm not lookin for someone to take care of me, but I miss the closeness of being in a relationship. I'm an affectionate person. I miss hugs and snuggling on the couch, talking about my days or being excited to see someone. It would be nice to have that back in my life... I enjoy conversations with people who aren't afraid to be themselves. Don't make me guess what you want or how you feel. I've struggled with that many times and it's hell on a relationship. If your having a bad day say so. No need to pretend with me to avoid some negative image you may think I'll have of you. It takes guts and some soul searching to find your true self. If your lucky enough to accomplish that don't hide it for acceptance. I started this online dating journey hoping to meet someone like me - dark sense of humor outgoing, laid back but a little feisty and sassy ha ha (Aries do love adventure!), but also caring/affectionate and self-confident enough to tell me and show me. Heres hoping your out there somewhere...

All outdoors! Beach - Jetty Park is nice, Keys, WV, need to get over and play in the Bahamas. Lots to explore there! Tiime Out is a fun little bar in Cocoa Beach, spend some time at The Sand Bar as well.
Love comedies and action! Big Bang Theory, New Girl, Psych, Tosh, Grim, Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, Ghost Adventures, My Chemical Romance, 30 Seconds to Mars, Maroon 5, live music is great just hard to find good bands on the space coast...
Try to get outside n exercise or travel. Day trips around the state exploring are fun. I'd like to travel more just haven't had the chance. Biking, kayaking, hiking, read, chill with my friends, movies

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: HTTPing
HTTPing may be the perfect tool to check on the health of your web server.
Between visits to the dentist, my job depends on my users' subjective impressions. If a web server reacts slowly, the typical reaction is something like "Hey, why's the server so slow today?" But how "slow" is slow? If a single machine is having a bad day, it is quite simple to individually check its health state. Things start becoming more complicated if a remote machine is off-key and I only have HTTP access.

Picture: Kid Rock The Orange Carpet prior to the Detroit Lions vs the Miami Dolphins NFL Game at Sun Life Stadium Miami, Florida - 26.12.10
Kid Rock's representatives have taken aim at Canadian politicians over a cancelled concert in Halifax last year (10), alleging city councillors failed to help save the gig.
The rocker was due to perform alongside other acts including the Counting Crows and Daughtry at a two-night event called Halifax Rocks 2010. The first night was cancelled due to low ticket sales, but the second show, featuring the Black Eyed Peas, went ahead.
Rock's reps at his Creative Artists Agency (Caa) have now written to Halifax city councillors after it came to light that the organisation allegedly handed over $400,000 (£250,000) to the promotion company behind the event to save the Black Eyed Peas show and a separate event featuring Alan Jackson.
Caa bosses now insist they are "due a remedy" as the council allegedly ignored their attempts to rescue the Kid Rock show and only helped out with the second night of the Halifax Rocks 2010 event.
Angie Rho of the Caa writes, "(We are considering) holding the municipality of Halifax accountable for its actions... In short, our clients are due a remedy for the festival's breach of its promise to them."

Comments about AccuBANKER® Cash Teller Bill Counter:
Not accurate all the time and then stopped working - conveniently after the time when it could be returned for money back. Had to contact AccuBanker directly - took 3 calls (even though I was told I would get a call back) before the person I talked to said they would send an address label (still waiting)for us to send it to them (at our cost) so they can look at it/fix it. Choose a different counter AND company.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
