Very easy to mix with warm formula milk. Wished Gerber would have more organic cereals. Only downside was box was covered with plastic on the outside and cereal was already out of the box when it arrived. I find it strange that cereal wasn't within a inner bag in the box. Hope they would change the packaging. Hence the 4 stars. >>>>>>>>>>> Click on my page link above to read about my favourite iherb purchases for my family.

Rapunzel's Tangled Hair by aimeekittyWatch
©2011-2016 aimeekitty
Im going to be wearing my Rapunzel costume at Fanime (YAY!), so I finally finished up my wig. In the process of trying to detangle it and brush it (for DAYS) in order to style it I came to a very obvious realization about how Rapunzels hair would actually look. (oh but of course her hair is MAGIC so it never tangles, right...?)
This is awesome!
i am really glad i got this...up on the wall it goes
I can see this happening... very cute! Too bad wig hair is not as mangable Disney hair, haha. xD
Haha awesome! I love her expression and poor pascal! x)
That's what my non-disney Rapunzel doll's hair looks like.
but still she brushes and brushes and brushes and brushes her hair everyday
That's how my wig feels after conventions...
XD I love the picture! Great as always. I tried a Tangle Teezer on my hair and it works great. I haven't tried it out on my wigs or my BJDs hair yet but it should be gentle on them. The thing actually detangles my hair without yanking it all out. I found it as Sally's Beauty Supply. You should give it a try.
HAHAHA Nice emphasis on the "tangled" part XD
LOL love it! Yeah her hair should totally be tangled... and it would be HELL to wash that hair! xD Question: if her hair doesn't tangle why is the movie called Tangled?
hahaha XDDD
Q_Q i know this feelig. and my hair are just 89cm long XD"
but shee looks realy cut :3 <3 like it!
but shee looks realy cut :3 <3 like it!
i wanted th\t to happen the hole movie!!!!!! Thank you for doing what disney couldnt
That. Would. Suck. (i love her expression, though )
I adore this picture. Poor Pascal! lol.
that looks like my hair! XD
lol thats great!
Thats like me trying to brush my hair!!!!!!! Still havent found the hair brush...
If you wanna get even more realistic, she wouldn't even be able to get her head off the ground....
....Oh, the image XD
....Oh, the image XD
OMG I see a fork! SOMEONE GET ARIEL!!
Lol love this, it's so cute!!!
Lol love this, it's so cute!!!
Ahaha, cute! <3
ROFL Poor Pascal! Get him outta there! This is priceless. If the wig is that badly tangled, maybe you could play it up - like this - for your costume. I love this picture, whatever you end up doing with the wig.
Heh, cute.
lol cute
I always assumed that her hair magically stays untangled, because with how long it is, if it were to become badly tangled you would have to cut the knots out. :'D
rofl rofl I love her expression XP
I wish I had magical hair cuz my hair is 4 to 5' long
I just love your marker work, this looks so colorful!
Are you going to have a table at Fanime or are you just going as a guest?
Are you going to have a table at Fanime or are you just going as a guest?
You know, that was my first question that popped into my head while watching it. CUTE!
I've gotten brushes stuck in my hair before, it is the definition of unfun ;_;
Haha, good one! ^0^
Ha ha!

Article: A single-centre experience of the treatment of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms: Clinical and anatomic characteristics of open versus endovascular repair[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The treatment of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms is a constant challenge for vascular surgeons and can be achieved either by endovascular repair or by an open surgical technique. Endovascular repair presents a higher 30-day survival rate. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and anatomical characteristics and the outcomes of these two treatment techniques. Our study sample comprised patients who presented at the emergency department of a General Regional Hospital with rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm between January 2003 and December 2008. Of the 43 patients who were treated, 23 underwent open surgical repair and 20 underwent endovascular repair. Comorbidities, age, clinical presentation and anatomical characteristics didn't present statistically significant differences in the two groups. Patients in the endovascular repair group were transfused with less units of blood and fresh frozen plasma (P=0.001) and had shorter stay in the intensive care unit (P=0.042). The 30-day mortality rate was 43% for open surgical repair and 35% for endovascular treatment (P=0.627), while the overall in-hospital mortality rate was 61% and 50% (P=0.474), respectively. When certain anatomical characteristics are present and the hemodynamic condition of the patient allows it, endovascular treatment appears to be associated with better survival rates, both 30-day and overall.

ABSTRACT: We present the case of a 61-year-old woman who underwent repair of a symptomatic 4-cm splenic artery aneurysm. This patient had received heart transplantation for hypertrophic congestive cardiomyopathy 5 years before this event. She was under immunosuppression therapy with cyclosporine, prednisone and azathioprine. The aneurysm was ligated both proximally and distally without removal of the spleen. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an isolated splenic artery aneurysm in the heart transplant population. We discuss the potential role of immunosuppressive agents and hormonal factors in the development of this extremely rare occurrence.

ABSTRACT: Aim: To report our early experience with endovascular treatment of symptomatic and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) using the Talent bifurcated stent graft. Patients-methods: From August 2003 to May 2007 nine patients with symptomatic AAA (sAAA) (two after previous endovascular repair and endoleak), and eleven patients with ruptured AAA (rAAA) (one with ruptured iliac aneurysm and one with spontaneous aortic rupture) were treated endovascularly. Seven bifurcated stent grafts, (six Talent), and two iliac extensions were implanted into the patients with sAAA, and nine bifurcated stent grafts (eight Talent) and two aorto-uniliacs were implanted into the patients with rAAA. Results: The deployment of the endovascular device in the intended location was successful in all patients. There was no conversion to open surgery. One patient with sAAA died after stroke and sepsis resulting in 11.1% 30-day mortality in this group. One required re-intervention for a type I endoleak before his discharge. Eight patients were discharged and during a follow-up period of 4-42 months (median 18 months) they have remained well. Two patients with rAAA died in the 30-day postoperative period. Thirty-day mortality was 18.1%. An unintended occlusion of one renal artery was performed. There were 9 survivors. During a follow-up period of 17-45 months (median 26 months) one more died of myocardial infarction. Conclusion: Initial experience with endovascular treatment of patients with symptomatic or ruptured AAA, using the Talent bifurcated stent graft is promising. Bifurcated endografts can be implanted into patients with rAAA. A larger number of patients and longer follow-up is necessary to arrive at more reliable conclusions.
Article: Profunda Femoris as an Access Site Vessel for a Hybrid Approach to the Treatment of a Para-Anastomotic Common Iliac Artery Aneurysm and Intermittent Claudication, Occurring after Previous Abdominal Aortic Tube Graft Repair and Femoro-Femoral Bypass Graft. A Case Report[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A true para-anastomotic right common iliac artery aneurysm and intermittent claudication developed in a 76-year-old man 5 years after open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair with a Dacron tube graft. Following the initial operation the patient developed acute left iliac occlusive disease necessitating an immediate right-to-left femoro-femoral crossover bypass graft. The patient was a poor open surgical candidate because of multiple medical comorbidities. Therefore, a hybrid approach was used consisting of exposure and catheterization of the right profunda femoris artery, which was used as the access site vessel for the deployment of a covered stent graft extending from the ostium of the common iliac artery into the external iliac artery. Simultaneously, the right profunda femoris provided inflow for an open above-knee profunda femoro-popliteal bypass graft to perfuse the right lower extremity. Postoperative angiography demonstrated primary technical success, with exclusion of the aneurysm and no endoleak. The patient is doing well 34 months postoperatively, with a patent endograft and no sign of intermittent claudication. Profunda femoris proved to be an excellent alternative to the common femoral artery for the application of a hybrid technique in a high-risk patient with complicated anatomy.
Article: Early endograft collapse following endovascular treatment of a traumatic thoracic aortic disruption: A case report[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The authors present the case of a 39-year-old man who underwent endovascular repair of a thoracic aortic disruption. Implantation of a Gore TAG stent-graft achieved total exclusion of the traumatic lesion with no contrast extravasation. However, on the third postoperative day, the patient developed complete anuria necessitating continuous venovenous hemofiltration. On the IV postoperative day there were no palpable femoral pulses and the pressure gradient between the lower and upper limbs was -80 mmHg. Given the development of severe intestinal and peripheral hypoperfusion status a possible endograft collapse was suspected. Urgent computed tomography (CT) angiography demonstrated central subtotal collapse of the device and proper distal sealing. A second TAG stent-graft was deployed successfully within the collapsed device with no contrast extravasation and good apposition of the stent-graft to the aortic wall. At 6 months, there is no sign of graft collapse or endoleak. Endovascular reintervention succeeded re-expansion of the collapsed endoprosthesis and resolution of the initial symptoms.

Article: Reliability of Selective Surveillance Colonoscopy in the Early Diagnosis of Colonic Ischemia After Successful Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To evaluate the reliability of selective surveillance colonoscopy based on 6 specific perioperative risk factors in the early diagnosis of colonic ischemia (CI) after successful ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) repair. From 1999 to 2005, 62 consecutive patients underwent rAAA repair. In 59 of them, routine aggressive surveillance colonoscopy was offered every 12 hours within the first 48 hours, and CI was graded consistently. Patients with stage I or stage II CI were treated conservatively and were followed up with repeat colonoscopy, whereas patients with stage III CI underwent immediate laparotomy and colectomy. In parallel, 6 specific perioperative risk factors (PRFs) were retrospectively analyzed. Overall mortality was 33.9%. Nineteen patients (32.2%) developed CI and 12 (63.2%) of them survived. Thirteen (22%) had grade III CI and among these 6 survived. In patients with CI the mortality rate was 36.2%. Patients with less than 3 PRFs had no CI whereas all instances of CI could be diagnosed if colonoscopy was offered selectively in patients with more than 3 PRFs. The positive predictive value of CI increased with the number of PRFs. Patients with 5 or 6 PRFs were about 101 times more likely to develop CI compared with patients with 0 to 4 PRFs (P<.001). Our study showed that CI is a frequent complication after successful rAAA repair and could reliably be early diagnosed if surveillance colonoscopy was offered selectively in patients with more than three PRFs.
Article: Endovascular Repair of Infrarenal Abdominal Aorta Penetrating Atherosclerotic Ulcers: Review of Our Experience[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU) of infrarenal aorta is a rare but life-threatening entity affecting elderly patients with severe atherosclerotic disease, and potentially complicated with intramural hematoma, adventitial pseudoaneurysm or aortic rupture. Although open surgical repair is an effective therapeutic option, endovascular treatment is emerging as an attractive alternative, especially in high-risk elderly patients.We report our experience with four cases of endovascular stent-grafting of infrarenal aorta PAU. All patients presented with abdominal or lumbar pain, and two of them with shock. The diagnosis was based on CT scan and angiography that demonstrated infrarenal pseudoaneurysm in two and focal nonaneurysmal infrarenal aortic rupture in the other two patients, secondary to PAU. Endoluminal transfemoral stent-grafting was successfully delivered in all patients. One of them died 5 days after the intervention because of multiple organ failure. During a mean follow-up period of 24 months, no endoleak, aneurysm evolution or stent-graft failure were found in the remaining three patients.
Article: Single stage arteriovenous short saphenous loops in microsurgical reconstruction of the lower extremity[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The short saphenous vein can be used "in situ" to create a temporary arteriovenous shunt for lengthening the recipient vessels of the injured limb in microsurgical reconstructions of the lower extremity. We report our results using this single-anastomosis turnover technique in three high-energy trauma patients who presented open tibial fractures associated with vascular injuries. The construction of the arteriovenous fistula provided arterial access and venous drainage to a free latissimus dorsi flap that was transferred to cover the soft tissue defect. In all three cases, this single stage procedure was successful; the flap survived and provided good long term results. The use of the ipsilateral small saphenous vein "in situ" for immediate arteriovenous loop formation may be of great value in complex lower leg reconstructions. It is a reliable adjunctive technique that provides healthy vessels to supply the free flap, permitting stable wound coverage and high rate of limb salvage.

ABSTRACT: The of this study is to present our experience in the management of patients with Altemeier-Klatskin tumor, with particular focus on the risk factors that influence survival after tumor resection. Over a 15-year period, 37 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma were managed in our Department. The mean age of the patients was 62.5 years. Twenty-one patients were treated by palliative measures while sixteen patients had resection of the tumor and 11 of these had negative histological margins. An associated major hepatectomy was performed in six. In parallel, certain risk factors that could influence survival were analyzed. The resectability rate was 43.2%. The 30-day mortality rate was 7.4% and postoperative morbidity was 37.5%. The sites of the resected tumors were Bismuth-Corlette type I lesions in 3 patients, type II in 6, type IIIa in 2, and type IIIb in 5. The median survival of patients undergoing resection was significantly higher than of patients not undergoing resection (p<0.001). Furthermore, patients with R0 resection and histological clear margins experienced significantly superior survival than patients with R1 resection and positive margins (p=0.001, and p<0.001 respectively). Resections resulting in cancer-positive margins did not portend a survival benefit. Negative surgical margins, tumor differentiation and infiltrating macroscopic appearance, were statistically significant prognostic factors. Our findings emphasize that complete resection of the tumor with negative histological margins offers the best possibility of long-term survival, and that the addition of hepatectomy to biliary resection results in a greater number of patients with margin negative resections.
Article: Management of nonfunctioning pancreatic endocrine tumors in the context of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim of our study is to present our experience in the surgical treatment of nonfunctioning pancreatic endocrine tumors (NFPETs) in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1). Between 1996 and 2006 a total of 11 patients with clinically confirmed MEN 1 syndrome were monitored in an annual screening program that included evaluation of the pancreas. Our policy was to use Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) in combination with biochemical screening in an effort to early diagnose and categorize the pancreatic involvement in MEN-1. NFPETs were identified in 4 female patients (36.4%). Diagnosis of NFPET was established 4.2 years later than that of MEN 1. The median tumor diameter at diagnosis was 2.2 cm (range 1.8-2.6 cm). All patients were treated by distal pancreatectomy. Diagnosis of NFPET was established in histological sections by staining with neuroendocrine tumor markers. Adjuvant therapy with streptozocin in combination with 5-fluorouracil was applied in two patients. After surgery the patients were followed up annually with clinical evaluation, biochemical tests and imaging studies. Early detection of NFPETs in patients with MEN-1 syndrome can be accomplished by biochemical and radiological screening program. NFPETs should be removed when diagnosed, in order to achieve a timely and efficient prophylaxis against further tumor growth and malignant development.
Article: Pseudoaneurysm of the Popliteal Artery Complicated by Peroneal Mononeuropathy in a 4-year-old Child: Report of a Case[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Pseudoaneurysms of the popliteal artery (PPA) rarely occur in children. In fact, we found only 10 cases reported in the medical literature. We report the case of a 4-year-old boy who presented with a painful palpable mass in the right popliteal fossa. He also had mild, painless right foot-drop and difficulty toe-walking on the same side. The diagnosis of a PPA was based on the findings of triplex ultrasound and computed tomographic-angiography. We attributed the cause of the lesion to blunt trauma, which he had suffered 2 years earlier. Thorough preoperative evaluation excluded the possibility of a self-immune process or a bone tumor in the region. Neurological examination demonstrated a mild, isolated, peripheral mononeuropathy of the right peroneal nerve. Thus, we performed surgical repair using an autologous reversed great saphenous vein graft. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and his peripheral neuropathy and foot-drop resolved completely within 1 month after surgery. Now, after 3 years of follow-up, the patient has a patent graft and a fully functioning limb. PPAs are rare, especially in children, and trauma is the predominating underlying cause. PPAs should be treated immediately after diagnosis because their complications are associated with high rates of functional impairment and even limb loss.

Article: Recurrent arterial thromboses in a woman with heparin induced thrombocytopenia, successfully managed with iloprost followed by clopidogrel. An alternative therapeutic option for heparin induced thrombocytopenia type II syndrome[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In its more severe form heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a rare immune mediated complication of heparin administration that potentially has catastrophic results, and significant mortality. In view of the severity of this condition it is important for the clinician to maintain a high index of suspicion and get alerted to the HIT syndrome by the precocity of platelet count decrease in any patient group, and especially in those previously exposed to heparin. We report on a 72-year-old woman who developed HIT syndrome that was complicated by recurrent arterial thromboses after receiving postoperative antithrombotic prophylaxis with tinzaparin, a low molecular weight heparin. The patient was successfully treated with iloprost (Ilomedin, iloprost tromethamine, Schering) a stable prostacyclin analogue, at the acute phase of the syndrome, followed by long-term treatment with clopidogrel (Plavix, clopidogrel bisulfate, Sanofi) an inhibitor of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor. Although direct thrombin inhibitors have been proven to be effective for the treatment of HIT thrombosis, they do not completely eliminate the morbidity and mortality of this disorder. Our case report suggests that antithrombotic treatment by targeting of the activated platelets with a potent platelet inhibitor during the acute phase of type II HIT syndrome followed by long-term administration of oral anticoagulation may be an additional, safe and effective therapeutic alternative that merits to be systematically studied.
Article: Endovascular Stent-graft Repair for Infrarenal Aortic Pseudoaneurysm Caused by Penetrating Atherosclerotic Ulcer: Report of Two Cases[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU) of the infrarenal aorta is rare and occurs when an atherosclerotic plaque ulcerates through the intima. PAU can be complicated by the development of intramural hematoma, adventitial pseudoaneurysm, and rupture. We report two cases that were treated by endovascular stent-graft placement and discuss the literature.
Article: Bilateral True Isolated Superficial Femoral Artery Aneurysm: Report of a Case and Literature Review[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We report a case of an 85-year-old man with true isolated bilateral superficial femoral artery aneurysms. The aneurysm size was 6.2cm on the right and 4.8cm on the left. They were repaired with transfemoral endovascular placement of three excluder stent grafts on the right and two excluder stent grafts on the left. Both procedures were done under local anesthesia.

Just in time for the warm weather, around 250 volunteers descended upon Williamsburg and Greenpoint last Saturday to spruce up the area's parks.
The volunteers came courtesy of New York Cares, the citywide organization that marshals the good will of New Yorkers and deploys volunteer troops to needed areas across the city.
Last Saturday's biggest platoon came from Ernst & Young, which sent 150 volunteers to McCarren Park (bounded by Nassau Avenue and Bayard, Leonard and North 12th Streets). Fifty of these volunteers undertook the monumental task of cleaning out the dog run, removing around six inches of woodchip covering in the process.
"There's no way we could have dug out the dog run without this volunteer help," said Stephanie Thayer, Administrator for North Brooklyn Parks. "The supplemental help is just tremendous."
Thayer once worked in the finance sector, and said she would have welcomed the opportunity to work outside for a day.
"To get out and see the tangible results of your work, there's an instant gratification about it that you don't get from pushing papers around all day," she said.
The volunteers also cleared out rooms in the McCarren Park Fieldhouse currently being used as storage space in preparation for these rooms to be converted into office space. Soon, some Parks District 1 employees will move from their current offices in McGolrick Park into McCarren.
Volunteers also worked in McGolrick (bounded by Driggs Avenue, Russell Street, Nassau Avenue, and Monitor Street) and Cooper Parks (bounded by Sharon and Olive streets and Maspeth and Morgan Avenues). On all three parks, they painted an estimated 60 percent of the perimeter fence. They also painted the parkhouses at Cooper and McGolrick, and the park benches and black poles in all three parks.
Additionally, the volunteers spread mulch and woodchips around park trees.
The volunteer effort coincided with Arbor Day, the annual holiday celebrating trees.

Red Hat on the River Restaurant Review: There's something charming about this bistro where clientele feel as if they're dining among family. Maybe it's the convivial air that husband and wife proprietors Jimmy and Mary Beth exude as they greet each guest, ever ready to please. A view of the Hudson River doesn't hurt either. The menu includes French fixtures like steak frites and moules frites. However, there are also departures, such as a seasonal winter risotto in a cauliflower and parsnip sauce with sautéed spinach, Parmigiano Reggiano and fried leeks. Consider as well the hearty short rib bourguignon. A solid wine list specializing in French selections enhances the experience. House-made desserts include a tart and creamy Key lime pie with a graham cookie crust topped with whipped cream.

I agree lol...
Have an opinion?
you should be able to let your bum express itself freely around anyone
unless your farts are really stinky... then don't do it infront of her and go to the bathroom
? Kind of a retarded question . why wuld you do tht anyways .
Straight Upp , The girl would probably be grossed out , kinda thinking what a pig .
Soo , uh I wuld say no ? .
ummmm nope lol
hahahah. one of my guy friends I hadnt seen for a year started hanging out with me recently and he was farting and I just laughed and said at least I know your comfortable around me. lol. there's no shame in farting just make sure you don't fart in front of a fan and it gettin blown all up in her face HAHA
i would be thinkin eeeeewwww personally :)
Strangest thing I've read on here possibly. Definitely wouldn't take it as an equivalent of "I love you" if a guy farts on front of me.
Although I wouldn't not love him just because of it. I guess it just shows that you're at a stage in your relationship where you don't find you need to be embarrassed in front of each other.
In front of your girlfriend? No that's rude always get behind her first.
In front of your wife? That's completely different. Go for it.
Under the covers is good too. Then pull them over her head.
It's only ok if she can fart in front of you without judgement, that's what I think. I feel by farting your giving her the green light to do the same thing. Fair is fair.

JUSTIFY-PLAN-ACTIVATE-CONTROL-END: Four simple words that define, contain, control and influence the life of your project. Learn how to use JPACE to achieve project success.
When a business undertakes a project completion report it seeks to resolve a number of matters relating to the investment and what has been learnt or achieved from that investment. The indicators for assessment include an evaluation of project processes and subsequent management, and often a focus on project outputs but not often project outcomes.
This template tends to address the operational project processes however could be further strengthened by including a section on Outputs and Outcomes for a more strategic perspective. For instance what was stated in the original business proposal or business case (1st column) should be contrasted or summarised against what was actually achieved by the project in terms of outputs (2nd column) and the business in terms of outcomes/change (3rd column).
The sustainability of the outcomes/outputs should also be commented upon. Any recommended follow-on project(s) you also see resulting from the completed project should also be captured. Thus the context of what has been completed is more fully understood by both the business and the project for future consideration.

Lochmaben, royal burgh (town), Dumfries and Galloway council area, historic county of Dumfriesshire, Scotland, situated near several small lochs in Annandale valley. Robert the Bruce, who ruled Scotland as Robert I from 1306 to 1329, had close associations with the town and, according to local tradition, was born in Lochmaben Castle in 1274. In 1290 a peel tower (small fortified tower) was erected by Edward I of England, and in 1298 Lochmaben was designated a royal burgh. In 1330 a stone castle was built, which remained in English hands until 1385. Pop. (2001) 1,952.

An accurate simulation of "The Hunger Games". You're a tribute, fighting intelligent AI in a "battle royal" to be the last person standing. Inspired by the novels by Suzanne Collins and the movies by Lionsgate Films. This is a turned based combat game in 1st person perspective, with Roguelike elements. The randomly generated arenas feature a central "Cornucopia" filled with melee and ranged weapons along with food and other gear, surrounded by wilderness in which one can hide or forage. You may form alliances with the other tributes, and backstab or be backstabbed by your allies. In the preview image (from a special "Audience" standpoint) you can see the semicircle of 24 tributes on their platforms, the central golden Cornucopia, gear in front of and within it, and surrounding forest containing mountains and waterways. "May the odds be ever in your favor!" :)
Early version 2.4 screenshot: In the opening "Bloodbath", there can be a lot of combat going on at once. Here the girls from Districts 7 and 5 are fighting, while the "Career" tributes from Districts 2 and 4 are moving in to take control of the Cornucopia.

All available monthly snow depth climatologies were integrated by the Rand Corporation, in the early 1980s, into one global (excluding Africa and South America) digital data set gridded at 4° latitude x 5° longitude. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers monthly climatologies were a primary data source. For data-sparse areas such as China, Greenland, the Arctic and Antarctica, special Rand methodologies were used: empirical evaluation of total precipitation, weather source regions, latitude, temperature, terrain and annual snow depth data. Monthly ice-pack limits from U.S. Navy Oceanographic Office were used to extend the zero snow accumulation line over the oceans. These mean monthly data can be used strictly as a climatological summary or for systematic comparison with simulations from any general circulation model (GCM), or for initiating GCM calculations. Data report copies are also available. The global grid is too coarse to pick up snow accumulation in Africa and South America, but no more than two grid points are involved in these areas.

NEW YORK -- The Yankees led the major leagues with 915 runs scored this season, and ranked first among the 30 clubs with 136 home runs at home. That offensive firepower helped produce a slew of late comeback victories, and allowed A.J. Burnett to keep his right arm in shape flinging whipped-cream pies between starts.
The fun continued in the American League Division Series. Even though the Yankees hit a collective .225 against Minnesota, they ripped the heart out of the Twins with big late home runs by Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira in Game 2. There always was a sense, particularly in the Bronx, that the New York hitters could summon the big fly at a moment's notice.
But home run trots aren't as abundant when the elements conspire against slugfests. When the temperature is barely 40, the flags are whipping in left field, the earflap concession is hopping and second baseman Robinson Cano has the entire L.L. Bean winter catalogue crammed beneath his game uniform, it's time for a subtler approach.
The Yankees forsook the bludgeon for a scalpel in their 4-1 victory over the Angels in Game 1 of the ALCS. Starter CC Sabathia was exceptional, throwing eight innings of precise, four-hit ball, and closer Mariano Rivera breezed through the ninth for his 36th career postseason save.
Dominant pitching: check.
The Yankees scored two early runs on a Rodriguez sacrifice fly and some hideous Angels defense, then tacked on two more runs on two-out RBI hits by Derek Jeter and Hideki Matsui. So they were adequately covered in the "timely hitting" department as well.
Finally, the Yankees made the lead stand up with some exceptional defense from Johnny Damon, Cano and Sabathia, who was more agile than a 290-pounder has a right to be in springing off the mound to field a Torii Hunter bunt in the sixth inning.
"That's one athletic play," Teixeira said. "I know CC was a heck of a high school basketball player, and he played football as well. He's not just a big pitcher out there. That guy can move."
In the end, there wasn't a whipped-cream pie to be found. This was a back-to-basics victory with more of a meat-and-potatoes theme. And no one in the New York clubhouse cared that the game made for less riveting television than the "Balloon Boy" saga.
More often than not, the teams that win in October pitch the best, make the fewest mistakes and simply find a way. In their quest for the franchise's first title since 2000, the Yankees will take their victories any way they can get them.
"In the postseason, pitching steps up," Teixeira said. "Teams don't have to worry about saving any of their relievers, so you're going to get their best pitchers every night. And you're not going to score a ton of runs."
Particularly when Sabathia is pitching. He entered this October with a reputation for October fades, but his velocity, command and the crispness of his pitches are evidence that Yankees manager Joe Girardi did him a favor by giving him extra rest between several starts in September.
Sabathia made a conscious effort to work both sides of the plate Friday, and that accentuated the effectiveness of his changeup. He has 15 strikeouts, one walk and a 1.22 ERA in his two postseason victories.
"All of his pitches are there," teammate Andy Pettitte said. "And even if one of them isn't, he has such quality stuff, I think he can go through a game just locating his fastball sometimes."
John Lackey, Los Angeles' No. 1, wasn't so fortunate in the series opener. His defense abandoned him in the first inning, and the Yankees made him work by taking an ultra-patient approach at the plate. The first 14 New York batters refrained from swinging at the first pitch. Of the 28 hitters Lackey faced, 24 laid off the first pitch.
The one notable exception was catcher Jorge Posada, who swung at the first pitch in his second and third plate appearances and made out both times. He must not have gotten the memo.
The Yankees forced Lackey to throw 114 pitches in 5 2/3 innings even though Lackey did his best to alter his patterns. He started the game by throwing eight straight fastballs to Jeter. Three innings later, he threw five curveballs in a span of six pitches to Melky Cabrera.
"I don't think we tried to do anything tonight that we haven't been doing all season long," right fielder Nick Swisher said. "We have certain guys on the team who like to swing early, and certain guys who don't. If those guys get up there and feel they're going to get a good pitch to hit [on the] first pitch, they'll go after it. The guys that don't, just take [pitches]."
The Yankees' patience didn't have a tremendous impact in the series opener. But it could eventually. No offense to Jason Bulger, Kevin Jepsen, Matt Palmer and Darren Oliver, but the Yankees plan to do everything they can to wear out the L.A. starters and exploit the Angels' middle relief contingent.
So far, so good for New York. The crowd of 49,688 at Yankee Stadium on Friday paid homage to Sabathia by chanting his name. Sabathia and Rodriguez picked up where they left off in the Minnesota series. And even though Cano took a little ribbing from his teammates for looking like an Iditarod participant, he made it through Game 1 frostbite-free.
Cold, schmold.
"This is our town, and our city," Swisher said. "Weather or no weather, we feel good playing here. We've worked out in worse weather than tonight, so we're ready for the weather either way."
The Yankees are prepared to take whatever approach is necessary to win. If the Angels plan to make this a competitive series, they're going to have to find a way to be equally resourceful.

Scam Alert. Maya Tzutujil Travel Agency!
Wanted to warn everyone of a recent event that happened while me and two friends where staying in San Pedro la Laguna. It was a friday and we thought that it would be a good idea to take a shuttle service to Antigua on Saturday morning so we went into a small travel agency called "Maya Tzutujil" its up and to the left 15 meters from the Panajachel dock, . They gave us the info time and price and charged us for the 3 shuttle tickets, Q75 each. Unfortunatelly we went kayaking afterwards and accidentally the tickets which were in my backpocket got soaked wet and fell apart.
Because of this reason we decided to go back to the Maya Tzutujil travel agency and ask if they could give us new ones, this is where the problem began. When we arrived back to the shop a woman in the front desk told us that we would be charged half of the price for the new shuttle tickets, we understood this and had no objections but she strangely continued explaining why she had to charge us half price , and telling us the Rules, etc etc, we were not even asking her or objecting we were actually quiet as far as i recall. This is where things started getting weird....suddenly a guy came out from a back room and asked what was going on, and when we explained that our tickets had gotten wet torn apart, and we needed new ones, he told us we would have to pay full price for 3 new tickets.... The funny thing at this point is that we were not even complaining or anything we had already agreed to pay half price for the new tickets but with this guy coming into the picture saying that we had to pay full price, we told him that the woman had already told us it was half price to print new tickets. The guy instead of realizing his mistake of trying to overcharge us, took out the tickets and started arguing about some small text in the back explaining some rules or policies on tickets and telling us that we had to pay the full price. We calmly told him that the woman who had attended to us had already told us it was half price to pay for the tickets and we were going to pay that amount. To our surprise the man started to freak out on us, he slammed a book on the desk counter and yelled at us that we should leave and he really got into my friends face we thought he was going to hit her or something for a moment, he screamed that this was not our home and we had to respect the rules, he also took out his phone and pretended like he was going to call someone. Fortunatelly for us, a Tourism police passed by and asked what was going on, after explaining to him what had happend he went and talked to the people in "Maya Tzutujil Travel Agency" and was able to get our money back or at least we got back half of the amount paid by our tickets. Before leaving the guy came out with a camera and took a picture of us which was really freaky??? To this moment we cannot understand what happened since we were at all times very calm and were agreeing to pay the half price to get new tickets. It seems that the people in "Maya Tzutujil Travel Agency" were simply trying to make an easy buck on our unfortunate loss of the tickets. We do not wish this situation on any travelers to be quite honest getting screamed at in spanish and not knowing what is happening is not a good feeling we warn other travelers to avoid them at all costs, as they prove to be quite disrespectful and seem to lack any ethics in their line of business.

Bad weather ferry scam
When I tried to get a public ferry this morning in Panajachel to San Pedro, a guy approached me and asked where I was going. When I told him, he said "no boats today" - ostensibly because of the poor weather (it was pouring rain). Since I come from a sailing background, and since there was hardly a breath of wind, I figured this was BS and headed off anyway to the dock despite his insistence that I would need to get a private charter - at over 60 bucks US - rather than the $3 US public ferry that, of course, was still running.

Walking Zombies
I had heard about the drugs in San Pedro, but being comfortable in that type of environment, I decided to spend New Years there. Complete disappointment. During the day, you will see walking zombies. You will feel a very negative energy there. The location is amazing and beautiful, and i highly recommend visiting during the day to eat at local restaurants etc. But be aware of this villages night life. It really amounts to nothing more than a bunch of people looking for drugs, and rounding up enough people to join them at a rave in a "secret spot" next to San Pedro.
Beware of the criminals loitering near the dock
Beware of the drug dealers, street alcoholics, and scammers that hang out on the street. When you get off the dock they offer to show you the way to your hotel, even if you decline they will follow you to your hotel and try to get a tip from you, even though haven't done anything. They can be very intimidating and demand a large tip, considering the average honest person in San Pedro earns $2 a day.
- Budget Travel
- Backpacking
When you arrive from Panajachel, you'll be dropped off at one of two main docks in San Pedro de la Laguna. Immediately, you'll notice a steep hill that takes you up toward the center of town. Be prepared for a hilly town and lots of inclines to navigate as you explore. The hills aren't as bad as some cities I've been to like San Francisco, California or Lisbon, Portugal, but then again, there's no public transportation to whisk you up the hills here in San Pedro, so be sure to bring comfortable walking shoes.
Robbers are around!
If you visit the San Pedro or any of the other villages around the Atitlan Lake, NEVER go walking without a local inhabitant from one village to another. Many tourists have been threatened with a machete and robbed on the streets! Make sure that you go walking or biking with a local guide.

Black Enterprise magazine hosted an energy forum today, with cosponsor Shell Oil, that was very successful. The speakers were excellent and there were excellent exchages during the question and answer portion of the forum. EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson was scheduled to deliver the keynote but had to cancel to attend the funeral of Vice President Joe Biden's mother in Delaware. Stephanie Owens, Director Of EPA's Office of Public Outreach, delivered a great keynote for the adminstrator. She also answered questions during the first panel.
AAEA President Norris McDonald and AAEA Vice President Derry Bigby attended the forum. McDonald asked about ownership potential in traditional energy sectors and whether mentor/minority protege partnerships could help in overcoming regulatory barriers to needed energy infrastructure.
Black Enterprise is the premier business magazine for the African American community. The magazine's BE 100's is enthusiastically anticipated by people worldwide each year. That particular issue is of great use to AAEA in determining entrepreneurship opportunities. In fact, our two favorite business publications are Black Enterprise and The Wall Street Journal.

Clean Skies: Roderick West
AAEA is an environmental organization founded in 1985 that is dedicated to protecting the environment, enhancing human, animal and plant ecologies, promoting the efficient use of natural resources, increasing African American participation in the environmental movement and promoting ownership of energy infrastructure and resources. We resolve environmental problems through the application of practical environmental solutions.

Permanent Dye and Children: Remind Me Why This is a Good Idea Againamberdoty
I have a parenting bucket list — a collection of things I want to do and experience with my children — and many of the items on the list are things I enjoyed and have fond memories of from my own childhood.
On this list, until Sunday when I lit it on fire, was dyeing Easter eggs with Anders and Danica. As a child it was one of my favorite parts of the Easter holiday. I vividly remember sitting around my grandma's giant dining room table with my cousins, taking turns dipping eggs into the brightly colored liquids.
Absent from my memories are color stained fingers, clothes, and dishtowels. I have no recollection of any temper tantrums or tears shed. We were all polite and cautious and docile. I suspect that we were all monsters and that I have really crappy long term memory.
It was with uncontainable excitement that I boiled two dozen eggs on Sunday morning and then set them in front of my children with six cups of dye. I explained the steps, the connection between longer times spent submerged and the vibrance of the color, and even provided them both with their very own white crayon to make a design on their eggs.
I turned on my camera and got ready to capture the magic. Less than five minutes later my 3-year-old had overturned three of six cups of dye onto herself, the table, and the floor, and my son was howling because some had splashed into his eyes.
While my husband held a shrieking Anders under the sink faucet, I scrambled for the nearest towel to sop up the dye that wasn't already absorbed into my daughter's dress. Everyone screamed, no one's clothing emerged stainless, and instead of capturing a Kodak moment I have a handful of pictures to serve as a reminder of how not to dye Easter eggs with preschoolers.
I think my parenting bucket list could use a few revisions.
