Rec&ts2mpg converter 2.9.45
Most digital video recorders, including satellite, (Topfield, DreamBox and so on) use the MPEG format for compressing the digitized video signals. But you cannot play back the recordings with a regular MPEG player on your computer (or create DVD from this MPEG) because they are formatted differently from the standard MPEG2 format. This program converts .rec and .ts formats (from DVR's) to the standard MPEG2 format.

Remember when high-end memory kits would set you back several hundred dollars? Those days are long gone, and for various reasons (all of which are great for consumers but stink for manufactures trying to flip a profit), they might never return. One of the reasons is that overclocking no longer carries such a heavy reliance on RAM. Memory is still important, but not like it was in the Pentium IV and AMD 64 era. But the biggest reason manufacturers are stuck in a low price rut is because they're caught in a "vicious circle of oversupply," GBI Research says.

« Acid Mothers Temple touring this spring, including Austin Psych Fest and two NYC shows (dates) | Marissa Nadler releases new song from LP, adds dates »
Posted in music on January 14, 2014
by Doug Moore
Scottish post-rock masters Mogwai are releasing their eighth album, Rave Tapes, on January 21. They're streaming the album on The Guardian today; you can also listen below.
First impressions -- including my own -- have been pretty positive so far. I'm generally predisposed towards Mogwai's noisier, more strident material, but Rave Tapes makes the most of their patient side. Though they've always had an electronic component, it's really on display here; digital tones fill out airy compositions that drift more often than they swell or crescendo. The sampled discourse on rock'n'roll subliminal messaging on "Repelish" is an especially endearing touch: "Satan. Gotta live for Satan. Master Satan."
You can preorder it here and stream it in full, along with a track stream and the video for "The Lord is Out of Control," below...

I bought a trial version of this and all I can say is "meh". Hence why my review is about to be short. This product wasn't thick enough to do much moisturizing, & it left my hair sticky...leading to breakage. Will not repurchase.

Not a big fan of it. It made my hair feel strange and not moistened at all. I went back to my it's a 10 spray which is soooooo much better.

I was afraid that this stuff would be too heavy for my hair, as a lot of leave-ins are. But this product is just wonderrrrfulllllll!!!!! It makes my hair and scalp nice and moisturized without being heavy (and I have oily hair). It makes my hair shiny, and the scent stays on my hair all the next day (I shower at night). the scent is the classic cucumber-y Paul Mitchell scent, and its one that I love. I would definitely recommend this to anyone!

Skin: Combination, Fair, Warm

A hairdresser recommended this to me years ago and I kept using it for a while, not knowing what else to use, but it really does nothing for my wavy/curly, frizzy hair. I have a bottle left still, but I'm going to throw it away, since I've had more success with Neutrogena's Triple Moisture Daily Conditioner. Also, the PM bottle cap always got clogged with dried conditioner, which I had to soak in hot water or probe with a bobby pin to get cleared.

Oh no, but this is the first time MUA has failed me.
After reading rave reviews, went out excitedly to get it. My hair's rebonded and rather dry, was hoping it would lessen the dryness.
Well, this so doesn't work. Not sure how to describe it, but it doesn't seem to be easily absorbed into the hair and doesn't do anything to make it look glossier or less dry. It does make it feel softer though - but that's not particularly helpful when it doesn't LOOK softer.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Oily, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
Little goes a long way.. I only use a small pearl size and distribute through hair. Not the best smelling conditioner, but if you only use a little, you will not even notice. One bottle will last you about a year. so you get extreme value for the money. Also you can put small amt on fingertips and use as styler... remember small amount...
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Very Dry, Fair-Medium, Not Sure

Must. Have. Leave-in for me. And has been for years with my Mother. Not only does it restore moisture to parts of my hair that may be dry after shampooing, it does wonders for my natural curl.
It seems to moisten, soften, shine, and define my curl a lot better than if I were just to shampoo and condition alone. It seems to, if you will, fill in any holes that an in-shower conditioner might leave. Even if the conditioner I use in the shower seems to ultimately fail me, if I use this leave-in liberally in the length of my hair, it'll moisturize and more for me! I've gotten compliments from people on my hair JUST by applying this after shampooing and conditioning, and air drying. It's a miracle product, I can't live without it.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Other, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other

This is the first time im using PM conditioner and i must say im very happy with the result! I have long curly/wavy hair and when my hair dried after the shower, it looked perfect! Just like the curls you get from using a curling iron! My curls got longer which i love or else i have way too much volume in my hair. I use it with PM's Shampoo One and they work together perfectly. Im quite surprised that this product didnt get higher ratings, but i guess it doesnt work with all types of hair, but it definitely worked with my thick and long curly hair!
Age: 36-43
Skin: Acne-prone, Tan, Warm
Hair: Black, Curly, Medium

I feel this product, along with many Paul Mitchell's products, are overpriced considering that they don't work well on my hair. My hair is extremely dry and frizzy and this product did not work better than my current favorite shampoo/conditioner, Garnier Sleek/Smooth which is much less expensive and works much better. Also, although the scent is not offensive, I don't care for the scent. This conditioner probably will work well for people whose hair is slightly dry and slightly frizzy. PM's conditioner did moisturize my hair and controlled my frizzies to a certain extent but not better than Garnier's, so I will not repurchase PM's conditioner.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Brunette, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
A stylist recommended this to me and said this was her favorite leave-in. She said she uses it on baby fine hair (and also literally on baby hair) and it's the only thing that strengthens and doesn't add bulk. Well I felt like I disappointed her when it didn't work for me! It seemed to weigh my hair down, even though I just used a little pea sized amount on the bottom half of my hair. The smell drove me crazy, but no one else seemed to notice. It felt kind of gel-waxy in my hands. I ended up exchanging it. Just not the right product for my thick, straight, long Asian hair. I think it's me and not you, Paul Mitchell :\

August 2, 2013 The South American country could be the first nation to legalize the production, distribution and use of marijuana. It's a bold response to incessant drug-related violence in the region and signals a quest for alternatives to the U.S.-led war on drugs and a rethinking of official U.N. anti-drug policy.

June 13, 2013 Mexico City has largely been spared the drug violence in other parts of the country. But a brazen daylight abduction of 12 young people from a Mexico City bar is putting the spotlight on one of the capital's roughest neighborhoods, and putting the popular mayor on the defensive.

This is interesting.
Bill Clinton solicits donations for his wife in an e-mail to supporters today.
He mentions "attacks from John McCain and Sarah Palin," makes the pitch for Sen. Barack Obama (who he had lunch with in Harlem last week) and says donors can get a DVD with copies of his speech and Hillary's speech from the Democratic National Convention.
Here's his note:
If any of you are watching the latest Republican tactics and seeing the latest attacks from John McCain and Sarah Palin, you know to win in November and reverse the mistakes and misplaced priorities of the last eight years it's going to take all of us working together. The stakes couldn't be any higher.
If you saw our convention in Denver, I'm sure you know that Democrats are 100 percent ready to go to work to win big!
That has a lot to do with Hillary. I couldn't have been more proud of the speech she gave in Denver. She made it clear why, if you supported her candidacy, you should also support Barack Obama.
Her historic speech inspired me and millions of others, and it was a great reminder of how important it is that we also continue to support Hillary's efforts to speak out on behalf of ordinary Americans. There's no better way to show her your continuing support right now than by making a contribution today. And if you contribute $50 or more, you'll get a DVD with her historic speech in Denver and the inspiring video that introduced her. It'll include a message that Hillary recorded just for you, where she shares some special moments from her week in Denver. And we'll put my speech on there for you, too. For a limited time only if you contribute $250 or more you will receive the special "Signature" edition personally signed by Hillary.
Contribute today, and you'll receive a DVD copy of Hillary's and my convention speeches.
After an 18-month primary campaign, Democrats are coming together with one purpose: to elect Barack Obama. After eight years of George W. Bush, America is hungry for real change.
It's the kind of change that someone like John McCain -- who has voted with George W. Bush 90 percent of the time -- just can't bring. Hillary and I are going to do everything we can to help make Barack Obama president, and we are going to keep fighting for our values, just as we have all along.
Help Hillary continue to make history. Donate $50 today, and you'll get a DVD of her historic convention speech -- and mine, too!
If you give $250 or more you will get a special edition signed by Hillary!
This is going to be a great year for Democrats and for America. I hope you're as excited about it as I am.
Thank you for everything,
Bill Clinton

Watch Nine Minutes of Tom Hardy, Chris Pine & Reese Witherspoon Being Awful to Each Other in 'This Means War' Clips
Posted on Thursday, February 2nd, 2012 by Angie Han
An obnoxious first trailer generally isn't a good sign for a movie, and after that first one hit I would've been perfectly content to see no more of McG's romantic action comedy This Means War. But nine (non-consecutive) minutes of the film have just been released, and surprisingly, they actually look better than the two or so we've already seen.
Chris Pine and Tom Hardy star as best friends and CIA colleagues who find their bond tested when they fall for the same woman (Reese Witherspoon). Naturally, rather than talking things out like reasonable adults, the guys use their government hookups to stalk the object of their affections and sabotage each other. Watch the new footage after the jump.

Spotlight On NYMF: Chip Zien & THE HISTORY OF WAR
by Pat Cerasaro - Oct 15, 2010
In a career that has consisted of everything from voicing Howard the Duck to originating the roles of The Baker in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's musical INTO THE WOODS and Marvin (and Dr. Mendel) in the FALSETTOS trilogy by William Finn, as well as some DePalma and numerous stage roles in between, Chip Zien is a character actor extraordinaire who now is trying out a new role - that of book writer - in the New York Musical Theater Festival's new musical THE HISTORY OF WAR. Last week we spoke to one of the stars of the show, Max Von Essen, and today we shine some light on the process of bringing the show to the stage as well as a look back at many of the notable film and theatre appearances that Zien has made over his nearly four decades in show business. Working with Stephen Sondheim, William Finn, Dustin Hoffman and Nicolas Cage is just the tip of the iceberg, as Zien also opens up about his unusual career and the many friendships he has built along the way. All that, and what it was like to be at the birth of a brand new Sondheim song written just for him in the form of 'No More' from INTO THE WOODS. Marvin to Mendel, Baker to book writer, Chip Zien is an authority of all the glitters and the gold of having a true collaborative breakthrough as he has had on FALSETTOS, INTO THE WOODS and, now, THE HISTORY OF WAR. Tickets are on sale at the link below! Only three performances left, tonight and tomorrow only! (more...)

InDepth InterView: Randy Graff Talks New 54 Below Show MADE IN BROOKLYN, Plus LES MISERABLES, Broadway Memories & More
by Pat Cerasaro - Feb 12, 2014
Today we are talking to a legendary leading lady famous for a few of the most iconic roles in some of the most memorable musicals of the 1980s and 1990s as well as a versatile vocalist and concert performer set to make her cabaret debut later this month - the ingratiating and amusing Randy Graff. Looking back at originating the role of Fantine in the original Broadway production of mega-hit mega musical LES MISERABLES and singing the unforgettable 'I Dreamed A Dream' eight times a week (and on the best-selling cast recording) as well as recounting her Tony Award-winning work in the endlessly entertaining Cy Coleman/David Zippel musical comedy CITY OF ANGELS, Graff share stories from behind the scenes and gives us a rare look at theatrical history in the making and her elemental role in both productions. Additionally, Graff opens up about some of her other most fondly remembered work, including her fantastic turn in Ed Kleban's A CLASS ACT, William Finn's FALSETTOS, Cole Porter's HIGH SOCIETY, the stage play and documentary MOON OVER BUFFALO co-starring Carol Burnett, the most recent revival of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF and much more. Most importantly, Graff generously outlines what we can expect from her upcoming solo shows at NYC hotspot 54 Below titled MADE IN BROOKLYN, in what will actually be the stalwart star's solo show premiere. In addition to all of that, Graff also touches upon some of her big screen and small screen work, ranging from LAW & ORDER to RENT, as well as recounts some theatrical tales involving theatre greats such as Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein, John Simon and more. All of that and much, much more awaits in this rich resume recounting retrospective with one of Broadway's best! (more...)

16 to 19 education: financial support for students
Advice for institutions on the financial support young people may be able to access to help them participate in education and training.
16 to 19 financial support
This advice provides information for institutions about the financial support young people may be able to access to help them participate in education and training. It covers a number of schemes, often described as 'student support' schemes:
The 16 to 19 Bursary Fund: pays a bursary of up to £1,200 a year to support young people in one of the defined vulnerable groups (those who do not have access to parental support and those receiving certain benefits in their own right) in participating in education. It also enables institutions to make discretionary awards to those young people they assess as facing the greatest financial barriers to participation.
Care to Learn: support with the costs of childcare to ensure that young people who are parents are not prevented from participating in education because of these costs.
Residential Bursary Fund: allocations to specialist institutions to help them contribute to the costs of accommodation for students they assess as facing financial barriers to accessing their specialist provision.
Residential Support Scheme: income-assessed support with the costs of accommodation for students who need to move away from home to participate because their study programme is not available locally to their home address.
Dance and Drama Awards: scholarships offering income-assessed support for tuition fees and living costs at a small number of private dance and drama colleges in England. This award ensures that income is not a barrier to the most talented young people accessing this specialist provision.
The Student Bursary Support Service
The Student Bursary Support Service previously known as the Learner Support Service will administer three schemes.
- Care to Learn, which provides financial support towards childcare and travel costs to young parents who want to continue or return to learning;
- the Bursary Fund for vulnerable students, which helps the most financially disadvantaged 16 to 19 year olds meet the costs of education or training; and
- Professional and Career Development Loans, which provide adults with commercial lending from Barclays Bank or the Co-operative Bank.
From May 2015 providers and institutions will be able to submit 2015 to 2016 applications via a new online digital portal.
The new online service will:
- be more efficient
- speed up applications and response times
- make it easier for childcare providers, educational institutions and students to provide the right information in good time
- increase accuracy and eliminate unnecessary errors
- improve access
- enable tracking of each individual's application.
Futher information about the Student Bursary Support Service is available on the Student Bursary Support Service webpage.
16 to 19 Bursary Fund
The 16 to 19 Bursary Fund supports the most financially disadvantaged 16- to 19-year-olds and those young people who most need help with the costs of staying in education.
You can find an overview of the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund below. Further information, including details about how to apply is available on GOV.UK.
Who can apply for a 16 to 19 Bursary Fund?
The 16 to 19 Bursary Fund is distributed in 2 ways:
Central allocation to eligible young people
A yearly bursary of up to £1,200 is available to young people in one of the four defined vulnerable groups, which includes:
- young people in care
- care leavers
- those on Income Support or receiving Universal Credit in place of Income Support
- disabled young people (in receipt of both Employment Support Allowance and Disability Living Allowance or Personal Independence Payment)
Institutions are responsible for verifying that young people meet the criteria for vulnerable student bursaries.
Funding claims for vulnerable student payments in the 2015 to 2016 academic year will be made online via the SBSS portal.
Institutions must complete a 16 to 19 Bursary Fund vulnerable students funding claim form in order to request funding for vulnerable students for the 2014 to 2015 academic year.

Discretionary awards made by institutions
Institutions are allocated funding from which they can make discretionary awards to young people. Discretionary awards are for any students who are facing genuine financial barriers to participating in education. Institutions can determine the eligibility criteria and the frequency and conditions of payments.
Information for institutions
Education Funding Agency (EFA) has published information to help institutions administer the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund, which includes:
- the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund guide for 2015 to 2016 and the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund guide for 2014 to 2015 , provide an overview of the general rules and principles underpinning the use of the fund

Care to Learn
Care to Learn supports young parents who want to continue their education and need help with the cost of childcare. The scheme can pay up to £160 a week (or £175 in London boroughs) for each child.
Childcare payments are made directly to the childcare provider and any travel payments are made to the young parent's education provider.
You can find an overview of Care to Learn below. Further information, including how to apply can be found on GOV.UK.
Information for institutions
Educational institutions and childcare providers with young parents receiving Care to Learn are required to confirm each month that the young parent is still in education and that the child is still attending the childcare provider.
Young parents must apply for Care to Learn for each academic year in which they need support. Institutions are not required to apply for the fund but should be aware of the scheme so that they can provide students who may be eligible with information.
The scheme is administered nationally by the Student Bursary Support Service (SBSS) previously known as Learner Support Service on behalf of the EFA. The SBSS is an administrative provider that processes applications, makes payments and provides information to institutions and young parents by a helpline.
Resources for institutions
The Care to Learn guide for the 2015 to 2016 academic year provides further information about the scheme, including the eligibility criteria and administration.

Residential support: overview of schemes
There are 2 schemes currently offering support with accommodation costs for students:
The Residential Bursary Fund (RBF) provides financial help for students attending an institution delivering specialist provision. Funding is managed and distributed by individual institutions.
The Residential Support Scheme (RSS) provides financial help for students who need to live away from home to study because the substantial qualification within their study programme is not available within daily travelling distance. Students should contact the student support officer at their chosen institution to apply.
Residential Bursary Fund
The Residential Bursary Fund (RBF) provides financial help towards the costs of accommodation for young people. They must be attending one of the designated institutions delivering specialist provision. This provision requires the young person to be resident in order to participate because it is not available locally and/or because it requires students to be available at unsociable hours on a regular basis.
RBF is intended to be used to provide a contribution towards residential costs for those young people whom the institution identifies face the most significant financial barriers to participation. It is not intended to provide support to all young people on residentially delivered provision at an institution, nor is it intended to necessarily cover the full costs for each student.
Institutions may determine their own eligibility criteria and process for considering applications for RBF support. Priority must be given to young people facing the most significant financial barriers to participation.
Annual requirements for institutions
Details of the allocations for the RBF in 2015 to 2016 has been issued to institutions.
Management Information returns
Institutions are asked to submit an annual Management Information return each October to provide information on RBF expenditure and the number of students supported.
Organisations who would like more information about the Residential Bursary Fund should contact EFA.
Resources for institutions
The Residential Bursary Fund guide for 2015 to 2016 provides information to institutions who administer the funding, including student eligibility, the management of allocations and management information requirements.
Residential Support Scheme
RSS is intended to help support students aged 16 to 18 with the costs of living away from home to participate in a study programme because the substantial qualification within the study programme is not available within daily travelling distance of their home. Most students applying to the scheme will be about to study for their first full level 2 or level 3 substantial qualification.
Students must meet the eligibility criteria (which includes an income assessment) in order to receive support from the RSS. If they are assessed as eligible by the institution, the amount of award they receive will be based on their actual accommodation costs up to a maximum award level.
2015 to 2016 academic year
From the 2015 to 2016 academic year, RSS will no longer be operated on a nationally managed applications model; instead institutions with a history of students receiving RSS support will be given RSS allocations from which they can support eligible students with residential costs.
The change to the delivery model will make additional funding of around £300,000 (the cost of administering the scheme nationally) available to support eligible residential students.
The change is expected to speed up the decision making process for students. Under the nationally managed model, missing information regularly has to be obtained from students and information on the application forms has to be queried, usually by post. Applications submitted by students directly to their institution will make it easier for queries to be sorted out face to face, resulting in quicker eligibility decisions for students.
We are also changing the way local availability of provision is verified. This will change from institutions being required to check with each student's home local authority to a check with a single point of contact in the EFA. The verification check has caused difficulties for some institutions in the past and the change will reduce work for institutions and speed up the process.
Institutions already assess whether students meet residency conditions on enrolment, assess household income (for the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund) and make arrangements for students' rental costs to be paid under the nationally managed model. RSS will build on existing knowledge and integrate into existing process. Institutions will be able to use up to 5% of their allocation for administrative costs. Most institutions have relatively few RSS supported students – over 30 of the 40 or so institutions with students accessing RSS have fewer than 5 each.
Allocations have been generated for institutions with RSS supported students in the 2014 to 2015 academic year. Allocations will be based on whichever is the highest value of RSS awards in the 2012 to 2013, 2013 to 2014 and 2014 to 2015 academic years.
Resources for institutions
- The Residential Support Scheme guide for 2015 to 2016

The guide provides further information about the scheme who administer RSS, including the full eligibility criteria.
Dance and Drama Award
The Dance and Drama Award (DaDA) scheme supports talented individuals to access high-quality training at some of England's leading private dance and drama schools. Awards are granted to those students who are assessed by the school at audition as being the most talented and likely to succeed in the industry. The amount of support an individual receives depends on their household income.
You can find an overview of the Dance and Drama Awards below. Further information, including details about how to apply is available on GOV.UK.
Students must be studying for a Trinity College London Level 5 or 6 Diploma at one of the schools participating in the DaDA scheme.
Students must meet the residency criteria, which are that they must:
- be an EU citizen and have been living in the EU for 3 continuous years immediately before the start of the course
- have 'settled status'
- have indefinite leave to remain in the UK
Students from Northern Ireland and EU countries are not eligible to receive living costs (maintenance) support, although they are eligible for support towards their fees.
If offered an award, the amount of support for fees and living costs will be based on an assessment of the family's household income. The income assessment will be undertaken by the appropriate DaDA school, according to national scales.
Resources for institutions
The DaDA providers scheme guide 2015 to 2016 gives information about student eligibility, the application and assessment process schools should follow and the monitoring arrangements for the scheme.
Contact details
Students needing help and advice should contact their DaDA school.

"Trains and Scenery in Garretson, SD" Garretson by OnTheSiouxFallsSub
Garretson Travel Guide: 0 reviews and 3 photos
Garretson, SD is a nice little town with a main street and an awesome Christmas Shop. What I find kind of neat is it's trains, they have about 5 or more per day and are on the Marshall Sub. There is a park in the town called Devils Gulch, where legend has it, Jessie James (The Outlaw, Not the Biker!) jumped across a cliff. But thats not the only thing there, it's also a good place to watch trains. It has a nice railroad bridge and is also a nice scenic area. (It's really nice during the Fall season.) Come check out this cool town!

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
Origins Available: French, Italian, Jewish, Scottish
Where did the Scottish Daniel family come from? What is the Scottish Daniel family crest and coat of arms? When did the Daniel family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Daniel family history?The earliest forms of hereditary surnames in Scotland were the patronymic surnames, which are derived from the father's given name, and metronymic surnames, which are derived from the mother's given name. Scottish patronymic names emerged as early as the mid-9th century. The patronyms were derived from a variety of given names that were of many different origins. The surname Daniel is derived from the ancient name Daniel, which means God has judged.
The frequent translations of surnames from and into Gaelic, accounts for the multitude of spelling variations found in Scottish surnames. Furthermore, the spelling of surnames was rarely consistent because medieval scribes and church officials recorded names as they sounded, rather than adhering to any specific spelling rules. The different versions of a surname, such as the inclusion of the patronymic prefix "Mac", frequently indicated a religious or Clan affiliation, or even a division of the family. Moreover, a large number of foreign names were brought into Scotland, accelerating accentuating the alterations to various surnames. The name Daniel has also been spelled Daniels, Daniell, Daneil, Danyell, Danel, Daniers, Danyei and many more.
First found in Sussex, where they held a family seat from very early times and were granted lands by Duke William of Normandy, their liege Lord, for their distinguished assistance at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A.D.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Daniel research. Another 509 words (36 lines of text) covering the years 1086, 1198, 1148, 1279, 1379, 1789, 1562, 1619, 1626, 1681, 1660, 1681, 1681, 1646, 1718, 1669, 1703 and 1705 are included under the topic Early Daniel History in all our PDF Extended History products.

Some of the first North American settlers with Daniel name or one of its variants:
Daniel Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Daniel Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Daniel Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
Daniel Settlers in Canada in the 17th Century
Daniel Settlers in Canada in the 18th Century
Daniel Settlers in Australia in the 19th Century
Daniel Settlers in New Zealand in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Nec timeo nec sperno
Motto Translation: I neither fear nor despise.
The Daniel Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Daniel Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

Article: Effects of mosapride on esophageal motor activity and esophagogastric junction compliance in healthy volunteers[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The effects of the prokinetic drug mosapride on esophageal motor activity vary at standard doses. In addition to esophageal motor activities, compliance of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is important for prevention of gastroesophageal reflux. However, the effects of mosapride on EGJ compliance have not been reported. Here, we investigated the effects of high-dose mosapride on esophageal motor activities and EGJ compliance. Nine healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study. Peristaltic esophageal contraction and lower esophageal sphincter pressures before and after administration of 40 mg mosapride were examined by high resolution esophageal manometry. Esophageal compliance was also investigated by intra-esophageal impedance planimetry (EndoFLIP(®)). High-dose mosapride augmented peristaltic contractions, especially in the distal esophageal segments (P < 0.05). The mean resting lower esophageal sphincter pressure was elevated from 25.0 mmHg before administration to 28.9 mmHg after (P < 0.05). In addition, mosapride significantly reduced EGJ compliance (P < 0.05). Mosapride at 40 mg augmented esophageal motor activities and reduced EGJ compliance in healthy volunteers.
Article: Influence of Full-body Water Immersion on Esophageal Motor Function and Intragastric Pressure[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In Japan, it is customary to take a daily bath during which the body is immersed in water to the neck. During full-body immersion, hydrostatic pressure is thought to compress the chest and abdomen, which might influence esophageal motor function and intra-gastric pressure. However, whether water immersion has a significant influence on esophageal motor function or intragastric pressure has not been shown. The aim of this study was to clarify the influence of full-body water immersion on esophageal motor function and intragastric pressure. Nine healthy male volunteers (mean age 40.1 ± 2.8 years) were enrolled in this study. Esophageal motor function and intragastric pressure were investigated using a high-resolution 36-channel manometry device. All subjects completed the study protocol. Intragastric pressure increased significantly from 4.2 ± 1.1 to 20.6 ± 1.4 mmHg with full-body water immersion, while the lower esophageal high pressure zone (LEHPZ) value also increased from 20.5 ± 2.2 to 40.4 ± 3.6 mmHg, with the latter being observed regardless of dietary condition. In addition, peak esophageal peristaltic pressure was higher when immersed as compared to standing out of water. Esophageal motor function and intragastric pressure were altered by full-body water immersion. Furthermore, the pressure gradient between LEHPZ and intragastric pressures was maintained at a high level, and esophageal peristaltic pressure was elevated with immersion.

Eliada Child Development Center
13 supportersSign in to view
Through our Child Development Services, Eliada strives to provide a loving and educational environment for young children in hopes that they can flourish in the community and acquire a love of learning that lasts a life time. We believe that every child is special and unique, and we strive to provide an environment that is accepting of all children and families. Eliada's Child Development Staff work to ensure that children develop cognitively, socially, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Each classroom implements Creative Curriculum, in which the underlying philosophy is based in cognitive development. Creative Curriculum helps the teacher to observe children more purposefully, and comprise a plan which can be administered to the individual or the group as a whole. The goal is to integrate learning into everyday experiences. SERVICES PROVIDED Eliada's Child Development Services has four components: pre-school, NC Pre-Kindergarten, after school, and summer camp. Pre-school holds a 5 star license and serves children from birth to age five during normal business hours, 7:00am-5:30pm Monday-Friday. These services are open year-round, and teachers develop creative lesson plans that encourage imagination, curiosity, and questioning the world around them. The teachers also encourage respect, cooperation, and celebrate cultural diversity. Eliada currently offers a kindergarten readiness program entitled, "NC Pre-Kindergarten". NC Pre-Kindergarten is operated through Smart Start and runs Monday-Friday 7:30am-2:00pm during the normal school year. This program is specifically for children in the community who are identified as being at risk for failure in school. The program is designed to teach children the skills they will need to succeed in school. The teachers work closely with Buncombe County Schools therapists and identify children with special needs early and connect them with the services that they need to succeed. Eliada's After School program also holds a five-star rating and serves children from age five through 12 from 2:00pm-5:30pm each day. After School is also open day on school holidays, teacher work days, and during inclement weather. Dedicated and well-educated staff plan and initiate physical activity, arts and crafts, games, music activities, and more. Tutors are provided daily for the students who are having difficulty in school. During the summer, Eliada offers one of the most affordable Summer camps in the Asheville area. Campers are able to play outdoors, swim, go horseback riding, and enjoy the NYPUM mini-bikes. Students also take field trips; enjoy guest speakers and special demonstrations, and other stimulating activities. Summer camp operates Monday through Friday from 7:00am-5:30pm. CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND SCHOOL-AGE SERVICES TEAM MEMBERS Eliada's Child Development Services (ECDS) are headed by our Director of Child Development. The Director oversees both the school age and pre-school programs, making sure that we are in line with NC licensing standards and ensuring that our five-start license is maintained. Pre-school and school age services are more closely managed under the guidance of the Director by the Pre-school Program Manager and the School Age Program Manager. Program Managers (PM) ensure that staffing needs are met and help guide families in the process of enrolling their children into their respective programs. The teachers in our Child Development are highly qualified to be serving our population. All of our child care staff has earned their early childhood credentials and the majority of Lead Teachers has earned Bachelor's degrees in Birth-Kindergarten Education and is licensed teachers. Staff are required to attend continuing education and training programs with Buncombe County Child Care Services throughout their employment with us. IMPORTANT FACTS Eliada Teachers screen and assess children each year to determine if special services are needed. If it is determined that Children require special services, Teachers make the appropriate referrals. Teachers work in conjunction with speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, play therapists, and parents to create Individualized Education Plans that include goals for the classroom teachers and home. Therapists work individually with the children enrolled in our program on site in a private space making therapy easy, comfortable and consistent for the child, family and therapist. The infant room has a lead teacher that knowledgeable in sign language and this is incorporate signing into the infant's daily routine. Parents are also taught sign language. Eliada arranges free annual vision, hearing, and dental screenings for all children. Eliada makes referrals and helps to arrange to have services provided on site. Teachers create profiles of children strengths and areas of concerns that follow children to Kindergarten. Before a child reaches their Kindergarten classroom the Kindergarten Teacher has received an "All about Me!" form that describes the child's likes, dislikes, habits, favorites, strengths, and areas that they need help with. NC Pre-Kindergarten Teachers meet with Kindergarten Teachers of special needs children and participate in their first IEP meeting before attending Kindergarten. Our After-school program offers help to the family through several avenues including holiday gift giving, food assistance for struggling families, assistance with referrals to outside resources, and support with their child's school personnel.
