The Sacramento Bee had a feature article on these gardens. The owner, Don Phillips, is now 90 and has decided to put it up for sale. He bought the property in 1964 and developed it, building a residence and beautiful gardens. He has visited Giverny (Monet's garden) many times. People refer to his garden as the "Monet in the Mountains."...
We really enjoyed our first visit to Big Springs Gardens. It's an amazing place. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the scenery is wonderful and peaceful. We hope to visit again next year...at the beginning of the season to see more flowers, and the end of the season to see more fall colors.
Absolutely stunning locale: fabulous house and gardens nestled within a forest with craggy mountains as the backdrop! Can't believe the creation Don Phillips realized in nowhere. So impressive. Lunch around the natural pools was such a treat. We drug it out as long as possible to savor the experience and then walked around the forest afterwards.
My wife and I went here two weeks ago on a Thursday. You make your reservation directly with the owner Don Phillips who is over 90 years old. A great guy. The fee is $35-39 depending on the day. The water is running a bit low this year, but the experience is really awesome. Don has built a trail system...
You would NEVER expect to find this in the town of Sierra City. Sierra City is about a one hour drive from Truckee! The scenery along the highway is varied, from open range to craggy peaks!
The gardens are the work of Don Phillips who has spent 50 years of his life perfecting them. He started with 118 acres and...
Not a botanical gardens, but a natural garden, sugar pine, cedar, wild flowers, good walk. Good lunch available, but book. However, owner might sell this year, then I don't know if it will still be available. Take route from Auburn, Truckee, Graeagle or Reno. www.bigspringsgardens.com
The drive from Truckee took about an hour on a 2-lane road. Beautiful drive - the last 20 minutes is on a fairly winding road so beware for those who get car sick.
The setting is absolutely lovely and my husband and I took a trail up to the water source of the springs. It was a breezy day so...
This is our second visit to Big Springs Garden, and we have greatly enjoyed both visits. We attended the Wednesday noon lunch and had a wonderful choice at the buffet of several salads, fresh fruit, smoked salmon, Swedish meatballs, several cheeses, and several excellent desserts. The setting is a gorgeous backdrop for a great meal.
Absolutely beautiful! The drive is long but scenic. The dining environment is stunning, the food is always delicious.
Scenery is fantastic, soft music playing in the background during our buffet dinner. You can walk around the grounds, explore the vegetation, running water, feed the fish in the pond.

Tax Gap:
Making Significant Progress in Improving Tax Compliance Rests on Enhancing Current IRS Techniques and Adopting New Legislative Actions
GAO-06-453T: Published: Feb 15, 2006. Publicly Released: Feb 15, 2006.

(202) 512-9039
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) most recent estimate of the difference between what taxpayers timely and accurately paid in taxes and what they owed was $345 billion. IRS estimates it will eventually recover some of this tax gap, resulting in an estimated net tax gap of $290 billion. The tax gap arises when taxpayers fail to comply with the tax laws by underreporting tax liabilities on tax returns; underpaying taxes due from filed returns; or nonfiling, which refers to the failure to file a required tax return altogether or in a timely manner. The Chairman and Ranking Minority Member of the Senate Committee on the Budget asked GAO to present information on the causes of and possible solutions to the tax gap. This testimony addresses the nature and extent of the tax gap and the significance of reducing the tax gap, including some steps that may assist with this challenging task. For context, this testimony also addressed GAO's most recent simulations of the long-term fiscal outlook and the need for a fundamental reexamination of major spending and tax policies and priorities.
Our nation's fiscal policy is on an imprudent and unsustainable course. As long-term budget simulations by GAO show, over the long term we face a large and growing structural deficit due primarily to known demographic trends, rising health care costs, and lower federal revenues as a percentage of the economy. GAO's simulations indicate that the long-term fiscal challenge is too big to be solved by economic growth alone or by making modest changes to existing spending and tax policies. Rather, a fundamental reexamination of major policies and priorities will be important to recapture our future fiscal flexibility. Underreporting of income by businesses and individuals accounted for most of the estimated $345 billion tax gap for 2001, with individual income tax underreporting alone accounting for $197 billion, or over half of the total gap. Corporate income tax and employment tax underreporting accounted for an additional $84 billion of the gap. Reducing the tax gap would help improve fiscal sustainability. Given the tax gap's persistence and size, it will require considering not only options that have been previously proposed but also new administrative and legislative actions. Even modest progress would yield significant revenue; each 1 percent reduction would likely yield nearly $3 billion annually. Reducing the tax gap will be a challenging long-term task, and progress will require attacking the gap with multiple strategies over a sustained period. These strategies could include efforts to regularly obtain data on the extent of, and reasons for, noncompliance; simplify the tax code; provide quality service to taxpayers; enhance enforcement of tax laws by utilizing enforcement tools such as tax withholding, information reporting, and penalties; leverage technology; and optimize resource allocation.

Report: 40 Million In The US Contribute to Social Networking.
Posted December 12, 2008 12:38 pm by Joe Hall with 14 comments
Netpop Research has released a report that says that around 40 million Americans contribute to social networking sites. 76% of all US broadband users actively contribute to social media sites, and 29% regularly contribute to social networks. (via)
Who are these social networkers?
Netpop tells us that the typical social networker is female (57% vs. 43%), between 18 and 29 years old, employed (55%) or a student (23%), and single (48%). Broadband users who don't contribute to social networks are usually older, married (57%) men (57%).
People that contribute to social networks will spend on average of about $101 online, while the folks that aren't a part of social networks spend around $80.
MySpace Vs. Facebook
I think one of the most interesting aspects of this report is the comparison between MySpace and Facebook users. If you are a user of both networks then perhaps the data below won't surprise you but it gives many of us a clearer picture of the over all networking landscape.
Netpop's full report is available for free download to registered members until January 31st. Go get yours or check out the slides below.
http://www.gadgets4nowt.co.uk PS3
That is huge! What percentage of the US population does that represent?
http://www.jozsoft.com/blog/ Joe Hall
@PS3 — I think the most recent census says that there are roughly around 300 million in the US, which puts 40 million at around 13% or 14% of total us population.

Thanks for reporting on our findings, Joe. We're coming out with more reports in the future, so get in touch if there's anything we can help you with.

Those percentages seem REALLY high to me. I guess it depends on what defines "actively participate" and "regularly contribute". So many people originally set up accounts with social networking sites, but once the allure wore off, haven't visited those sites in ages and ages.
http://www.greatpriceshere.com Nicole Price
This bears out with my own gut feel for the phenomenon. It is the younger lot who are in most need of social networks and women more so. The older citizens seem to have quitened down and stable.

40million people? we have what 300 million people in the US?
great information
http://datexmedia.wordpress.com Scott Mahler
When they say active user, do they mean participating on a daily basis for hours at a time, or are these people popping on periodically to catch up with friends? I think part of the reason for this phenomenon is the fact that we are such a busy and mobile world now. I think there is a stigma for some people about the types of people who utilize social media, but when you consider the technological world we are living in, I think it's pretty normal these days.

Interesting figures. I wonder how they would compare with other countries in Europe, whether it would the same sorts of pursuits for MySpace and Facebook users.
Although looking at the graph, it seems all the geeks are on Facebook, and all the creative sorts are on MySpace (I'm going to get it in the neck for that!). In my defence, I don't do MySpace, but I'm on Facebook.

I think the differences between myspace and facebook are rather amusing. It makes sense its dominant in colleges it was started for that purpose.

Dealers' hedging of interest rate options in the U.S. dollar fixed-income market
Despite investors' willingness to hold a variety of financial assets and risks, a significant share of interest rate options exposures remains in the hands of dealers. This concentration of risk makes the interest rate options market an ideal place to explore the effects of dealers' dynamic hedging on underlying markets. Using data from a global survey of derivatives dealers and other sources, this article estimates the potential impact of dynamic hedging by interest rate options dealers on the fixed-income market. The author finds that for short-term maturities, turnover volume in the most liquid hedging instruments is more than large enough to absorb dealers' dynamic hedges. For medium-term maturities, however, an unusually large interest rate shock could lead to hedging difficulties.

'American' Remembered: Rick Rubin On Johnny Cash
Rick Rubin is perhaps best known for starting the rap record label Def Jam from his dorm room while in college, or for working with hard rock bands like Metallica and System of a Down. But starting in 1993, he entered into a creative partnership with the country legend Johnny Cash that lasted for the last 10 years of Cash's life.
Cash and Rubin called the series of albums that emerged from the collaboration American Recordings. Each album featured original compositions by Cash, traditional songs, and covers, sung by Cash, usually over an acoustic guitar arrangement. Four of the albums came out before Cash's death in 2003, including American IV: The Man Comes Around, which featured Cash's cover of the Nine Inch Nails song, "Hurt."
Rubin has produced three albums that have been released since Cash's death — the box set Unearthed and the albums American V: A Hundred Highways and American VI: Ain't No Grave, which was released this week to coincide with what would have been Cash's 78th birthday.
Rubin speaks to Terry Gross about what it was like to collaborate with the country music legend. In addition to working with Cash, Rubin has worked extensively with Linkin Park, Slayer, the Dixie Chicks, Metallica, Russell Simmons and the Beastie Boys.
This interview was originally broadcast on November 25, 2005

OceanicAirlines Oceanic Airlines YKTTW Discussion
|Oceanic Airlines
The stock airline name for calamities.Needs Examples Tropeworthy?
Quite often, when a story calls for a plane crash, an in-flight incident, or some other misfortune to happen to a passenger plane or airline service, Hollywood (and sometimes other media) decides to name the service Oceanic Airlines. Naturally, real airline services wouldn't want to associate with these stories, since it would imply to the audiences that their service is unreliable. Nevertheless, it's bizarre, almost uncanny, that Oceanic Airlines keeps popping up in totally unrelated stories. Those who fly Oceanic are apparently not very Genre Savvy. A form of Fictional Counterpart specific to airlines.
Examples:[[folder:Fan Fic]]
- New Perspective Evangelion: The plane crash was an Oceanic Airlines flight, and the airline is apparently run by one John Locke.
- Alias: An Oceanic Airlines flight to Sydney was mentioned in passing.
- FlashForward (2009): An Oceanic Airlines ad appeared during the pilot episode.
- Fringe has an ad for Oceanic.
- An Oceanic plane crash kicks off Lost.
- JAG: An Oceanic Airlines (how typical) flight to Seoul gets hijacked by South Korean radicals in 5th season episode "The Bridge at Kang So Ri". Luckily enough our heroes take care of the situation.
- The X-Files, "Synchrony": Agents Mulder and Scully search the hotel room of the mysterious old guy who seems to have come from the future. Scully finds a note pad in his room. There are the words "Pan Oceanic flight #1701" written on it.
- In Dead Island, planes occasionally fly overhead. The one from Oceanic Airlines, naturally, sends a distress signal shortly before crashing onto the island.
- Derelict: Dang comes across a crashed passenger jet which is sporting an Oceanic Airlines logo
- Strawberry Dragon Project: From Episode 3: "Oceanic Airlines denies all responsibility."

Add this chart to your site:
Copy and paste this HTML:
In general, project directors (unspecified type/general) are responsible for the overall success of a project. They guide the activities of various project members, coordinating the different parts of the project toward a unified goal. Project directors must accomplish this task within the constraints of budget, time, and personnel limitations.Read More...
Before a project starts, the project director reviews the desired outcome of the project and strategically plans how to achieve the goal with available resources. The director breaks the project into phases, planning the staffing and funding for each. As the project progresses, the director monitors the ongoing success and adjusts planning accordingly.
Project directors must possess several key qualities. Leadership is an important aspect of the role, including navigating project team members through changes and guiding the group toward goals. As part of this, project directors must have excellent teamwork skills. Project directors solicit group members for input and incorporate suggestions to better meet the project's goals. Project directors must also be able to effectively work with clients, representing the entire group (or company) and acting as a spokesperson. This requires excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
For the most part, project directors work full time in an office environment. Educational and experiential requirements differ depending on the project manager's field. For example, in manufacturing, most project directors have a bachelor's degree in engineering along with related work experience that includes management and finance. In other fields, project directors often have business or management degrees, along with experience working in the field.
Add this chart to your site: 640px 300px
Though it's uncommon, some Project Directors move into roles as VPs of Operations, where pay is an average $123K per year. Becoming a Non-Profit Executive Director is, more often than not, the most common role that Project Directors move into when they're ready for the next step in their career. A median salary for a Non-Profit Executive Director is $60K. Another frequent advance is for Project Directors to assume a Project Management Director role; in this role, workers often take home $122K.
Project Directors generally report applying a varied skill set to their work. Most notably, facility with Microsoft Project and Process Improvement are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 40 percent and 14 percent, respectively. Skills that are correlated to lower pay, on the other hand, include Windows Operating System General Use and Microsoft Excel. Those educated in Microsoft Office tend to be well versed in Microsoft Excel.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For many Project Directors, more experience generally translates to higher pay. Those in the early stages of their career can expect to make around $51K; however, individuals with five to 10 years of experience bring in $78K on average — a distinctly larger sum. After one to two decades on the job, professionals can reap plentiful salaries that average out to the six-figure sum of $107K. Project Directors who surpass 20 years on the job report pay that isn't as high as one would expect; the median compensation for this crowd sits around $126K.

GATT: GamerX - For those of you whom have Alan Wake on Steam, you may have noticed the game downloading a bit of something in the past few days, but aren't able to tell what it is. Well if used in Steam it is in your Alan Wake folder with a folder titled bonus. This video comes months after the release of both AW PC and AW: AN – however it features footage that isn't present in any of the current games, such as Alan with his wife Alice in the darkness. This has yet to occur in any game as in Alan Wake she was stolen from you, and American Nightmare had her in the real world till she reunited with Alan thanks to his novel "Return". What the new game is based about we currently have no idea — however after contacting the publisher to get some beans spilt, I was told I would get some great news soon.
Update Sorry about the title mistake.

Great fridge!
By Jennifer
from Chicago, IL
About Me Avid Cook
Comments about Whirlpool Black Side-By-Side Refrigerator:
We have only had this fridge for a few weeks, but we love it! It fit perfectly in our smaller space (1920s home). We love the in-door water and ice maker. The only thing I could think to improve is for the LED lights to illuminate a tad fast. It kind of gradually increases in brightness, and I would rather have instant on. This is a very small detail, however, and overall I am very happy.
Service and delivery comments:
The delivery and install was impressively professional. This is where abt can't be beat, and why we chose them for our purchase!

Two days after delivery, had a small problem with the ice maker cover attachment that detects when the ice bin is full...did not know what it was, it was bent and a piece of styrofoam was left in the ice bin during delivery. Called about it and it was promptly fixed. Thanks!

Good product, great customer service
By Steve
from Seattle
First, Abt is great to work with - knowledgable employees who actually seem to care about the customer, not just going through the motions. Second, the fridge itself is nice. Had an initial problem with the freezer door shutting properly, but it was quickly mitigated by a warranty service call.My only complaint may just be inherent with door ice dispensers. Occasionally, a piece of ice or two will get stuck in the flap of the dispenser. Then these cubes will melt and overflow the small water collection area of the dispenser. Other than that, we are happy with the fridge.

Enjoy this delicious strawberry Bavarian loaf garnished with whipped cream that's perfect for a dessert.
This recipe resembles a charlotte russe, a classic French dessert in which a mold is lined with ladyfingers, sponge cake or bread brushed with flavoring, such as liqueur, coffee or fruit juice. The mold is filled with whipped cream-custard and chilled until set.
Speed-thaw strawberries by placing them in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwaving 10 minutes on MEDIUM-LOW (20 to 30% power). Remove the bowl from the microwave and let it stand until the strawberries are thawed.
Use very low heat to dissolve gelatin, and remove it from the heat as soon as the granules disappear. To check that gelatin is dissolved, stir it with a clean metal spoon. If the granules cling to the spoon, continue heating until they dissolve.

Article Summary
February 12, 2005 The world of computer-mediated matching services looks set to blossom as wireless technologies become all-pervasive. We've covered two such ingenious matchmaking services in the last twelve months and now a third with enormous potential has emerged. Proxidating's software enables you to recognise potential partners in any environment - if your preferences match and you come within Bluetooth distance (15 metres), your mobile will introduce you. The third new such matchmaking service was introduced this week - the Proxidating locality-based matchmaking service for Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone users, offers an interesting new way for people to get together. Created in France (where else?), the Proxidating service uses Bluetooth connectivity to make the initial contact and with mobile phone usage now universal in many countries, particularly among the young, socially mobile and technology-savvy group, we think it has anormous potential.

Article: The effects of cyanosis on myocardial blood flow, oxygen utilization, and lactate production in dogs[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To elucidate differences in myocardial blood flow and metabolism between cyanotic and normal hearts, a model of chronic cyanosis was created in five adult mongrel dogs by anastomosing the inferior vena cava to the left atrium. After 6 to 9 months, myocardial blood flow, the ratio of subendocardial to subepicardial flow, oxygen consumption, oxygen extraction ratio, and lactate consumption in these cyanotic dogs and five control dogs were determined under baseline conditions and during pharmacologic stress with isoproterenol (0.2 micrograms/kg/min). Radioactive microspheres were used to determine left and right ventricular blood flow rates, and arterial and coronary sinus differences in oxygen and lactate levels were measured. At baseline and during stress, oxygen consumption and oxygen extraction ratios were identical in control and cyanotic hearts. Total myocardial blood flow was increased with stress and did not differ between cyanotic and control hearts. Left ventricular muscle from cyanotic hearts did exhibit lower endocardial/epicardial blood flow ratios than those of control hearts at rest, and the relative subendocardial flow decreased further with stress. During isoproterenol infusion, myocardial lactate production, indicative of anaerobic metabolism, was evident in two of five cyanotic animals and none of the control dogs. The relative subendocardial ischemia and its further aggravation by stress in cyanotic hearts may contribute to the pathophysiologic basis of myocardial dysfunction in cyanotic heart disease.
Article: Developmental differences in myocardial protection in response to 5'- nucleotidase inhibition[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Age-related differences in the activity of 5'-nucleotidase, an enzyme responsible for conversion of high-energy phosphates to their the diffusible precursors, may help to explain age-related differences in tolerance of global myocardial ischemia. Postischemic function and high-energy phosphate content were measured in the hearts of rabbits 7 to 10 days old (neonate), 30 to 40 days old (1 month), and 6 to 12 months old (adult). Hearts in each age group were subjected to 60 minutes of ischemia at 34 degrees C either with no cardioplegia, with unmodified St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution, or with St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution with pentoxifylline, a 5'-nucleotidase inhibitor. These groups were compared with one another and with control hearts that were continuously perfused for 1 hour. In adults, addition of pentoxifylline to St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution restored adenosine triphosphate and total nondiffusible nucleotide levels to control values and improved recovery of cardiac output and developed pressure compared with results with unmodified St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution. In contrast, biochemical and functional parameters in neonatal hearts were not affected by either unmodified St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution cardioplegia or St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution with pentoxifylline. Functional recovery in neonatal hearts subjected to unprotected ischemia was superior to that in the older age groups. In 1-month-old hearts, St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegia improved recovery compared with recovery after unprotected ischemia, but no incremental improvement in function or high-energy stores was seen with addition of pentoxifylline. The lack of effect of pentoxifylline on neonatal hearts suggest that there is a relative deficiency of 5'-nucleotidase in this age group. This may contribute to the improved functional recovery observed in unprotected hearts. Furthermore, addition of pentoxifylline to adult hearts appears to confer the benefits of low 5'-nucleotidase activity occurring naturally in the neonate.
Article: Comparison of a low osmolarity nonionic radiographic contrast agent with a standard medium on renal function in cyanotic and normal dogs[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Renal dysfunction may follow administration of iodinated radiographic contrast agents. This complication may be less common when low osmolarity nonionic agents are used. Although potential benefits from the use of low osmolarity nonionic contrast may be minimal in individuals with normal physiology, a greater benefit has been postulated in the presence of chronic cyanosis. To test this hypothesis, six adult mongrel dogs underwent anastomosis of the inferior vena cava to the left atrium. This produced chronic cyanosis with a mean pO2 of 48 +/- 4 mm Hg and polycythemia with a mean hematocrit of 56 +/- 2 gm%. Three to 5 months after preparation, these cyanotic dogs and five control dogs each received diatrizoate (a high osmolarity ionic agent) or ioversol (a low osmolarity nonionic agent), 465 mg iodine/kg body weight, by intravenous bolus injection. One month later, each animal received the other agent. The order of administration was randomized. Renal function studies, including serum creatinine and creatinine clearance, were performed precontrast, after 60 min, and 24 hr postcontrast. Neither agent adversely affected renal function in either the cyanotic or the normal group. We conclude that at the doses that are commonly used in clinical practice, high osmolarity ionic contrast agents do not create a greater risk of renal injury than do low osmolarity nonionic agents in this model of cyanosis.

ABSTRACT: Although the early mortality for repair of truncus arteriosus has decreased in the modern era, routine correction in the neonate has not been widely adopted. To assess the results of our protocol of early repair, we reviewed 46 neonates and infants undergoing repair of truncus arteriosus at the University of Michigan Medical Center from January 1986 to January 1992. Their ages ranged from 1 day to 7 months (median 13 days) and weights from 1.8 kg to 5.4 kg (mean 3.1 kg). Repair was performed beyond the first month of life in only 8 patients, because of late referral in 7 and severe noncardiac problems in 1. Associated cardiac anomalies were frequently encountered, the most common being interrupted aortic arch (n = 5), nonconfluent pulmonary arteries (n = 4), hypoplastic pulmonary arteries (n = 4), and major coronary artery anomalies (n = 3). Truncal valve replacement was performed in 5 patients with severe regurgitation, 3 of whom also had truncal valve systolic pressure gradients of 30 mm Hg or more. The truncal valve was replaced with a mechanical prosthesis in 2 patients and with a cryopreserved homograft in 3 patients. Right ventricle-pulmonary artery continuity was established with a homograft in 41 patients (range 8 mm to 15 mm), a valved heterograft conduit in 4 (range 12 mm to 14 mm), and a nonvalved polytetrafluoroethylene tube in the remaining patient (8 mm). There were 5 hospital deaths (11%, 70% confidence limits 7% to 17%). Multivariate and univariate analyses failed to demonstrate a relationship between hospital mortality and age, weight, or associated cardiac anomalies. Only 1 death occurred among 9 patients with interrupted aortic arch or nonconfluent pulmonary arteries. Hospital survivors were followed-up from 3 months to 6.3 years (mean 3 +/- 0.4 years). Late noncardiac deaths occurred in 3 patients, all within 4 months after the operation. Actuarial survival was 81% +/- 6% at 90 days and beyond. Despite the prevalence of major associated conditions, early repair has resulted in excellent survival. We continue to recommend repair promptly after presentation, optimally within the first month of life.
Article: Usefulness of the bidirectional Glenn procedure as staged reconstruction for the functional single ventricle[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The bidirectional Glenn operation may be particularly useful as an intermediate procedure before Fontan correction in high-risk patients. From October 1989 through February 1992, 50 patients 1 to 60 months old (median 12) have undergone a bidirectional Glenn operation. Diagnoses included hypoplastic left heart syndrome in 21 patients, pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum in 10, tricuspid valve atresia in 9, other complex univentricular heart defects in 9, and Ebstein's anomaly in 1. Mean pulmonary vascular resistance was 2.2 +/- 0.2 Wood U (range 0.5 to 7.3) and mean pulmonary artery area Nakata index was 318 +/- mm2/m2 (range 80 to 821). Additional procedures were performed in 17 patients, including pulmonary artery reconstruction in 15 (29%) and bilateral caval anastomoses in 5 (10%). There were 4 hospital deaths (8%). Two deaths resulted from myocardial infarction in patients with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum and sinusoids and 1 from severe pulmonary vascular disease in a patient with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. There was 1 late death from pneumonia. Actuarial survival is 92 +/- 4% at 1 month and beyond, with a mean follow-up of 13.4 +/- 1 months. Risk factor analysis showed that pulmonary vascular resistance >3 Wood U and pulmonary artery distortion were associated with increased mortality. Twelve patients have undergone a Fontan procedure at a mean duration after bidirectional Glenn of 18 months with 1 death (8%). The bidirectional Glenn procedure provides excellent palliation in high-risk patients and appears useful as a staging procedure before Fontan correction.

Article: The management of severe subaortic stenosis, ventricular septal defect, and aortic arch obstruction in the neonate[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Neonates with ventricular septal defect and aortic arch obstruction frequently have subaortic stenosis resulting from posterior deviation of the infundibular septum. Because the aortic anulus is often hypoplastic, making direct resection of the infundibular septum through the standard transaortic approach difficult, the optimal method of repair is uncertain. From September 1989 through November 1991, seven patients with ventricular septal defect, coarctation (n = 4), or interrupted aortic arch (n = 3) and severe subaortic stenosis underwent repair with use of a technique that included transatrial resection of the infundibular septum. Their ages ranged from 5 to 63 days (median 15 days) and weights from 1.3 to 5.4 kg (mean 3.1 kg). Only one patient was older than 1 month. The systolic and diastolic ratios of the diameter of the left ventricular outflow tract to that of the descending aorta were 0.53 +/- 0.09 mm (standard deviation) and 0.73 +/- 0.11, respectively. At operation, the posteriorly displaced infundibular septum was partially removed through a right atrial approach by resecting the superior margin of the ventricular septal defect up to the aortic anulus. The resulting enlarged ventricular septal defect was then closed with a patch to widen the subaortic area. In each patient the aortic arch was repaired by direct anastomosis. All patients survived operation; there was one late death from noncardiac causes 3 months after repair. The survivors remain well from 3 to 14 months after repair (mean 8 months). All are in sinus rhythm and none has a residual ventricular septal defect. One patient underwent successful balloon dilation of a residual aortic arch gradient late after repair. No patient has significant residual subaortic stenosis, although one has valvular aortic stenosis. This series suggests that in neonates with ventricular septal defect and severe subaortic stenosis resulting from posterior deviation of the infundibular septum, direct relief can be satisfactorily accomplished from a right atrial approach. This method provides effective widening of the left ventricular outflow tract and is superior to palliative techniques or conduit procedures.

ABSTRACT: Discrete subaortic stenosis typically appears as a well-defined membrane beneath the aortic valve. To assess the merits of alternative approaches to this problem, we have reviewed the results of operations for discrete subaortic stenosis from 1978 through 1990. Excision of the subaortic membrane alone was performed in 16 patients (group I). Excision of the membrane with resection of septal muscle was performed in 24 patients (group II). The groups were similar in age at operation, duration of follow-up, and preoperative and postoperative transvalvar gradients. There were no operative or late deaths. Reoperations for recurrent subaortic stenosis were performed in 4 group I patients (25%; 70% confidence limits, 16% to 38%) and 1 group II patient (4%; 70% confidence limits, 2% to 11%). Pacemakers were inserted for postoperative complete heart block in 1 group I patient (6%; 70% confidence limits, 2% to 16%) and 2 group II patients (8%; 70% confidence limits, 4% to 16%). We conclude that muscle resection combined with membrane excision in patients with discrete subaortic stenosis does not increase the risk of death or heart block, and does lower the risk of reoperation for recurrent subaortic stenosis.
Article: Palliative arterial repair for transposition, ventricular septal defect, and pulmonary vascular disease[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Failure to repair transposition of the great arteries and ventricular septal defect in the young infant results in the early development of pulmonary vascular occlusive disease. Complete repair, preferably by an arterial switch procedure and ventricular septal defect closure, may then not be possible. We report a palliative arterial switch procedure in a 5 1/2-year-old patient with transposition, ventricular septal defect, and severe pulmonary vascular obstructive disease in whom progressive hypoxemia and exercise intolerance developed. An arterial repair without ventricular septal defect closure was performed. After the operation, the child's systemic arterial oxygen saturation and exercise tolerance have substantially improved. Although the progression of pulmonary vascular disease may not be altered, arterial repair can provide effective palliation in this subset of patients.

ABSTRACT: The optimal calcium concentration in cardioplegia for the newborn has not been determined. Therefore, the effect of 0, 0.6, 1.2, 1.8, and 2.4 mmol/L calcium in modified St. Thomas cardioplegia was evaluated in isolated working hearts of 7- to 10-day-old rabbits. Functional recovery was determined by comparing aortic flow, developed pressure, and first derivative of left ventricular pressure (dP/dt) before and after 1 hour of normothermic (37 degrees C) ischemia. As percentages of baseline values, recovery of developed pressure and dP/dt averaged 10% +/- 1% (mean +/- standard error of the mean) and 10% +/- 1% with 0 mmol/L, 46% +/- 7% and 44% +/- 8% with 0.6 mmol/L, 79% +/- 2% and 76% +/- 2% with 1.2 mmol/L, 67% +/- 2% and 61% +/- 5% with 1.8 mmol/L, and 65% +/- 5% and 65% +/- 7% with 2.4 mmol/L calcium, respectively. Significant improvement in recovery of developed pressure and dP/dt was detected when the calcium concentration was increased from 0 to 0.6 mmol/L and from 0.6 to 1.2 mmol/L, but the groups with 1.2, 1.8, and 2.4 mmol/L did not differ from one another significantly in terms of developed pressure and dP/dt recovery. There was no recovery of aortic flow when 0 mmol/L calcium was used; at calcium concentrations of 0.6, 1.2, 1.8, and 2.4 mmol/L, recovery of aortic flow averaged 16% +/- 7%, 63% +/- 10%, 23% +/- 10%, and 36% +/- 11% of baseline values, respectively. Recovery of aortic flow with 1.2 mmol/L calcium was significantly higher than at concentrations of 0.6 and 1.8 mmol/L.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

This hot chocolate mix recipe isn't the greatest due to lack of authentic chocolate flavor. However, the snowman soup concept is very charming. I will make some of these up with my recipe, put them in a quart canning jar and use the "snowman soup" concept. In my recipe, I don't use the chocolate drink mix. Instead I use dry milk, cocoa powder, sugar, etc. When I can, I add some vanilla powder to the mix or vanilla flavored coffee creamer. With mini marshmallows this surely should bring some fun to the little ones!
It is good, but it does not have a strong chocolate taste. I figured with the pudding mix it would be chocolate-y! But its really not. I'm going to play around with it some before I give it as presents. Oh, and I threw it all in my food processor to break it up a little becuase I found that it didnt all dissolve so great. Maybe I'll do less powdered sugar and more nesquik? I'll post what I discover to work best! :)
i just made these for gifts and had to try some (i tried it with milk) and it was wonderful. I did add extra unsweetened cocoa powder for an extra chocolaty flavor and made a double batch. Thank you for posting!!!

MARSHALL COUNTY, OK-- Investigators said a Marshall County Landlord was arrested twice in the past month on child sex abuse charges and could be involved in even more incidents.
Randolph Derebery was arresed on the charge of Rape by Instrumentation to a girl under the age of 16. The alleged incident happened in August 2011.
He pled not guilty and was released over the weekend on a $20,000 bond.
The alleged victim reportedly came forward last week after she found out Dereberry had been jailed on two other child sex abuse charges.
His next court hearing is set for April 27th.
The sheriffs office belives there are more victims and encourages them to come forward.

Zac Efron wearing Designer Jeans
Zac Efron in a Levi's Denim Jacket
Zac Efron made his way to an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' in West Hollywood, California last week. He seemed to grab a lot of attention as he walked into the studios.
Zac wore his old Levi's denim jacket with shearling which he wore with dark grey skinny jeans. We haven't seen him out in this jacket in a while, I think he wears it really well though as it suits his style. I do prefer the outfit he wore previously, but it definitely shows how versatile this jacket is!

Zac Efron in Nudie Thin Finn in Black Weft Indigo
Zac Efron was snapped while practicing his swing at the driving range over the weekend. He just recently celebrated his 26th Birthday!
Zac wore a brand we haven't seen him in recently, Nudie. He wore a pair of Nudie Thin Finn in Black Weft Indigo with a blue t shirt and Tom's. I like the slimmer cut of these jeans on Zac, I think they fit him really well. I think Nudie is such a niche brand, it is unfortunate we don't see more celebrities in it. You can buy Nudie online from Nudiejeans.com.
Zac Efron in Levi's Cut Off Shorts
The ladies of Disney weren't the only ones to don Levi's cut-offs this summer; Zac Efron was also wearing the style as he was making his way into the Soho House in West Hollywood, California. He chose to wear a gray pair with some Toms and a plaid shirt, then finished it off with a beanie.
Interesting fact about denim shorts. The word jorts was just added to the oxford dictionary. Though I love my denim, I have to admit that I am not really happy with the new addition. What are your thoughts of the world becoming part of the English language? You can click here to purchase men's Levi's cut-offs at Urban Outfitters.

Zac Efron in Simon Miller Jeans
Zac Efron was pictured with Christopher Mintz-Plasse on the set of their new movie 'The Townies' during filming in Los Angeles, California.
Zac wore a pair of tight fitting Simon Miller jeans with a Greek letter t-shirt and Nike's. Even when he's on set Zac dresses really well, his clothes are always fitted and very flattering. I think he looks great here!

Learning to never waste a minute
Published: Monday, January 12, 2009 at 7:25 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 12, 2009 at 7:27 a.m.
Like most Americans, I woke up on New Year's Day hopeful for a new beginning, thankful to bid adieu to a year that came up short for so many of us. New Year's Eve was quiet for my family as it generally tends to be two adults nursing champagne by the television set, two kids sipping on sparkling grape juice, and one dog wondering why everyone is up past 9 p.m. We welcomed 2009 with sleepy fanfare before heading to bed.
My desire for a different kind of year was shared by others. One friend said, "2008 can't leave soon enough." It's an odd thing to wish away time as if an imaginary delete button could erase a moment, an experience or, yes, a year.
Then, after feeling somewhat giddy over the prospect of all things new and different, I heard Jett Travolta had died. Immediately, I thought of what John Travolta and Kelly Preston would give to have time back.
I didn't know Jett, nor have I ever met his celebrity parents, who call Marion County home. Yet, like many in our community, I feel like I know them. I'm not sure why.
Does knowing what John orders at Tony's Sushi count for kinship? Can you form an instant bond with a stranger when you hear of Kelly's kindness to a neighbor whom you know? Probably not, but it strips away the Hollywood veneer to reveal something deeper. These are real people. Good people who love one another, their children and their community. And, through the emotional fog of shock and sadness in a year that has just begun, we grieve for loving parents who have suffered an unbearable loss.
You can see in pictures of Jett that he was loved and adored by his family. I'm particularly drawn to the photo of Kelly and Jett walking side by side on a Hawaiian beach, a teenage son protectively hugging his petite mother. And the picture of John resting on Jett's shoulder is simply beautiful. These photos tell me this was a young man a gentle boy facing his share of life's challenges who knew the best way to soothe a parent's worry is with a son's reassuring embrace.
In a statement released by John and Kelly, they noted being "heartbroken that their time with Jett was so brief." And it was. Yet, from what I've read and seen, they made the most of every minute with their extraordinary son. A child named after his father's love of flying. A teenager who knew the value of a really good hug. A young man who welcomed a new year as fireworks touched the heavens like that of Jett's beloved flights with his dad.
John, Kelly, Jett and Ella didn't waste a minute honoring their time with and love for each other. Neither should we. Maybe some years can't leave too soon, but those we love sometimes do, taking flight and touching the heavens.

It's day two in the trial against two Ishpeming men. They're accused of holding two women captive and torturing them last July.
Jason Sadowski, 43, and 66-year-old Charles Cope are being tried together in Marquette County Circuit Court.
Police say they tied the women up in the basement of Sadowski's martial arts studio. The women left Hickey's bar with Sadowski to get marijuana and see his studio.
According to testimony, he attacked them and took them to the basement after learning they stole money from his wallet.
In court, officers who initially arrived on scene took the stand.
The prosecution called Patrolman Jeremy Rae and Jason Hart to the stand. They were questioned about what they saw when they arrived on scene. Rae said when they questioned Sadowski about a basement, he denied there was one. However, while searching, they came across the victims and Charles Cope in the basement.
"What was the emotional state of these two women while this is all going down?" asked Matt Wiese, prosecuting attorney. "Hysterical, crying," said Patrolman Jeremy Rae, Ishpeming Police.
He was asked about how the victim looked.
"She had redness on her wrist. She also had what looked like tape residue on her wrists. She also had some swelling on the left side of her face, right along her cheek," Rae explained.
During cross-examination, Sadowski's attorney, Timothy Quinnell, questioned the alleged victim's injuries. He also asked if she got in a physical altercation with the other alleged victim. That person has since passed away prior to the trial.
Quinnell also asked if they stole jewelry and marijuana, which she denied. He also questioned her on Sadowski's response after finding them duct taped.
"Do you remember one of the times Sadowski came downstairs, he asked what the 'f' is going on, regarding being taped to the poles. Remember that?" asked Quinnell. "Absolutely, not," responded the victim.
The other main question raised was the role Cope played throughout the ordeal.
In cross examination by Cope's attorney, Karl Numinen, the victim said both of the men tied them up. She agreed that Cope tried to alleviate the situation, but didn't go out of his way to help them escape.
"He brought the bucket over so that it could be used to urinate," said Karl Numinen, Cope's attorney. "Yes sir," the victim replied. "When someone wanted to take the drag out of a cigarette, he would bring one over and give you a drag," Numinen stated. "Yes sir," the victim responded.
She also agreed that after asking for crackers, Cope gave them food.
The prosecution will continue their case with the remainding witnesses on Thursday.

Great Truck mat
Reviewed By Mark S (raymore, MO) Reviewed for a 2012 Chevy Silverado —2/3/2016 9:23 AM
Installed the Bed Mat without having top trim anything. Just plopped it in, no prob. The tailgate mat did require some trimming to fit my truck. That took a little while because the mat is so thick and durable. Tough to cut with utility knife.


text: For some reason, even when I've chosen one of the default brushes (i.e. hard round 9 pixel), the brush strokes have a transparent look. The layer's opacity is set to 100% as is the brush opacity. The layer is also set to "Normal". I've tried changing some of the brush settings, but nothing works. Any suggestions?

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints
Volume 60, Number 4, December 2012
pp. 513-554 | 10.1353/phs.2012.0039
This article examines differences in the discursive representations of male and female overseas Filipino workers. Men have less discursive visibility than females, but men are seen as responsible breadwinners, virile, and/or threatening socioeconomic and international hierarchies, while women are contradictorily portrayed as heroines and bad mothers. These representations result from migration's tensions and contradictions with historically established gender and kinship norms. Because these norms are central to Philippine class and status hierarchies, elite and middle-class anxieties thus mediate migrants' representations. Further, the state and global political economy shape these representations. This examination compels a rethinking of Philippine migration flows as feminized.

CM Punk Dealing with Two Injuries, Update on Cena Missing a RAW, Rey Mysterio's Status
by Amish Patel - December 04, 2013
– Rey Mysterio is now back on the road full-time with WWE. He's being advertised for the New York City, Hartford and Newark events during Christmas week.
– John Cena is still not being advertised for the December 30th RAW in Richmond, Virginia as he is scheduled to be at a SmackDown live event in Toronto that night.
– CM Punk continues to work banged up and is reportedly dealing with a back issue and an issue with rib cartilage. Monday's RAW was written around Punk not taking any punishment so he could have sort of a night off. Punk did wrestle at last night's SmackDown tapings.
