For four years now, Tisia Ngombeni of Mabwepande in Kinondoni District has been raising her mentally disabled child all by herself. Her son, Maki Joseph developed a mental condition following brain damage during delivery. This marked the beginning of Ngombeni's nightmares as her husband, a retired army officer decided to abandon her and the baby.
The 31 year old mother of two was informed by the nurses and doctors at Mwananyamala hospital that her baby had suffered brain damage during delivery. "I was in shock and worried at the news but I prayed that all would be well," Ngombeni said.
When she informed her husband about the baby's condition, his attitude towards her changed. "He told me there was no way he could father a disabled child and said I must have been involved in immoral activities," Ngombeni says.
He even advised her to throw the baby away, at the market near Bagamoyo, where people could collect him. He said this would save them the burden of bringing up a mentally disabled child.
Ngombeni decided to seek her parents' advice who did not support the cruel idea. They warned her that she would be arrested if found out. Eventually she decided to keep her baby and raise him despite the difficult financial situation she was in. "I have gone through a lot with him, he is my flesh and blood so I cannot abandon him. Besides, it's not his fault he is sick," Ngombeni says in a motherly tone.
Ngombeni describes her husband, to whom she has been married for six years, as one who was loving and kind until the birth of Maki.
"All was well with my husband, a retired military officer until Maki was born and things changed", she says adding that "he refused to offer any child care support and instead advised me to move out of the house because Maki was a curse. He claimed he has never seen such a baby".
Her husband said he would only accept her in their matrimonial home if she threw away the baby. "At one time he told me to kill the baby to off load the burden on our shoulders and the shame that he has brought to the family," she says.
With tears in her eyes, Ngombeni, who runs a small charcoal business describes how life has been unbearable this year as she is overwhelmed by the baby's medical condition and maintenance. This has prompted her to start looking for the father of the baby for support. Her small business can not support her and her two children.
"I can't leave Maki with anyone. Not even my mother considering her old age. He needs a lot of attention but I have to find food, clothes and medication for him," the young woman says bitterly.
Her desperation drove her to the ward officer in Mabwepande area, Abdalla Kunja where she was advised to take up the case to the social welfare office so that the husband can start providing for the baby.
Kunja, the ward officer says Ngombeni has suffered a lot and has been visiting his office to ask for assistance. "She came to my office complaining how it is hard for her to take care of the two children on her own. She needs maintenance fees from the father; besides Maki needs medical attention which she cannot afford plus special care," says the Mabwepande ward officer.
Dr Zuberi Mzige of Mwananyamala Hospital says there are various causes of mental illness. Sometimes it can be due to biological factors where someone inherits the genes which run through the family while at other times it can be due to stress or complications during birth.
A disabled child intellectually, physically or visually impaired should be given the same privileges of food, shelter, education, clothing and health care just like any other child.
Notably, the Tanzanian government, under the persons with disability Act No 9 of 2010, considers everyone to be equal and prohibits any discrimination against persons with disabilities.
Thus it is very unfortunate for someone to chase his wife away for giving birth to a baby who is mentally challenged as is the case of Ngombeni. Parents should understand that it is their responsibility to take care of their children, disabled or not.
The secretary of women and gender issues at Bunju area, Jackson Chirimi says he deals with a number of women who present cases of gender based violence, child neglect, divorce and many more.
"The office receives many cases of men abandoning their responsibilities when it comes to family issues" says Chirimi.
Statistics collected between 2011 and 2012 in Bunju, Kinondoni Municipality indicate that a total of 12 women in Bunju area, reported of having been abandoned by their husband leaving them to take care of the children on their own.
Chirimi says women need to be empowered to know their rights as well as in business so they can supplement the needs of their families.
"Women need to be given loans to establish businesses, this way men will stop harassing them," he advised.
Likewise, Chirimi says, men have to understand that they have the responsibility of providing and taking care of their families including children born with disabilities.

The recent shooting tragedies in our nation's schools are something that's at the forefront of all our minds.
Saturday, educators in our own community took action to learn what to do in case that ever happens here.
Calvary Family Martial Arts and Fitness is hosting the free training.
The goal is to give those who work in our schools simple tools and techniques they can use in order to protect both students and staff.
"I just don't want to see innocent people lose their lives anymore," said Laurie Hylle, D-11 food service employee.
Teachers and district employees alike learned what to do in case of a shooter in their schools, an education prompted by many recent shooting tragedies across the nation.
"That was a huge motivator when watching about kindergartners, and you got second graders who are one or two years older that would be their little brothers, to know those are little kids, will be afraid, how do you keep them safe," said Michele Matte, second grade teacher.
They learned how to react if a gunman surprises them in a classroom, hallway or gym. They were also taught where to hide depending on the type of weapon, and how to barricade students in a room.
"Otherwise you wouldn't know what to do, all you will want to do is run and hide, and people are going to be screaming and you're not going to have the composure you need to diffuse the situation and save lives as a result," said Hylle.
An important technique was called "Smother and Cover." It's a simple way to disarm and disable the active shooter.
"We keep our training real, it's nothing too fancy, nothing going to be in a movie screen. It's something that is real for today's real world," said Isaac Costley with CFMAF.
"If you can even save one person or a classroom, it's all worth it," said Hylle.
The training is called "Final Steps to the Last Resort."
There is a free class every Saturday in February that will go over the same techniques as today, to make sure all teachers get a chance to learn.
Those who work for a school district in El Paso County can also take free classes during the week that go more in-depth.
CFMAF also travels to schools in our community and offers training there for both students and teachers.

Hunter-nin Corps (追い忍部隊, Oinin Butai), also known as the Corpse Processing Team (死体処理班, Shitai Shori Han) is a special team within Kirigakure's ANBU, consisting of hunter-nin (追い忍, oinin, English TV: Tracker Ninja), which are given the specific duty of hunting down missing-nin. They completely erase the person they're searching for by means of their superior assassination techniques and medical skills.
They could be seen wearing standard armoured ANBU uniform or, in some instances (such as Haku and Ao), a blue kimono with a striped, turtle-necked undershirt. They may also wear a mask with thin slitted eye-hole and a wavy design in place of the mouth, and their village symbol on the forehead. They kill their target, taking the head as proof, and then completely dispose of the body by using various methods, such as cremation or the summoning of wild carrion crows to devour the corpse. This is done in order to make sure the village secrets which a ninja's body holds — such as chakra types, herbs eaten, ninjutsu, special medicine, and kekkei genkai — will not be revealed to outsiders.
Hunter-nin are supposed to destroy the corpse at the very spot the body is lying; it is not to be moved after it is dead, and only the head is taken back to prove that the missing-nin is in fact dead. As a requirement, they must possess a thorough and intimate knowledge of human anatomy. Due to their reputation for utterly and completely obliterating the remains of their targets, they are code-named "The Undertaker Squad" (当る隊, Atarutai).
Early in the series, Haku poses as a hunter-nin as a ruse to rescue the supposedly killed Zabuza Momochi. Ao, as a true hunter-nin himself, demonstrated great skill in tracking, as his targets grew nervous enough to lay traps to stop him. In the anime, a squad of hunter-nin led by Tsurugi was sent to hunt down the rogue jinchūriki Utakata.
In the anime, the team's background is further expanded, with some of its members (one of whom is seen sporting a mask and a hairstyle identical to Haku's, suggesting they might be typical of the group) being revealed wearing armours and using special techniques, such as wielding water ropes to restrain enemies, which can be electrified in order to harm victims, and creating mist which sucks chakra out of the opponents.

St. Louis, MO (KSDK) - An armed man robbed three juvenile girls late Monday evening and forced them to undress before fleeing the scene.
According to David Marzullo, a spokesman for the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department, the incident happened at 11:45 p.m. in the 4400 block of Elmbank, west of Fairgrounds Park in north St. Louis.
Police said the three girls-ages 12, 15, and 16-had their cell phones taken in the robbery. The man then fondled two of the girls after telling them to undress. The third girl was then instructed to remove her clothes while the suspect held the trio at gunpoint.
None of the victims apparently knew the armed man, although they told police they had seen him in the neighborhood from time to time.
Anyone with information on the case should contact CrimeStoppers at 1-866-371-TIPS.

Not-so-hungry Herd looking at 8th in C-USA
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- AFTER HIS Ohio team mauled Marshall by a bigger margin Saturday than any of his Kent State teams did last decade - and that's saying something - the question had to be asked.
Jim Christian, was this the sloppiest Thundering Herd team you've coached against, or did your team just play that well?
He started with, "Well we were a little hungry tonight."
Ding, ding, ding! Eventually, he gave the obligatory defense of the vanquished opponent, but the word "hungry" said it all.
The Bobcats entered Saturday's 94-57 rout having lost five of the last seven. Those involved solid teams such as Memphis, Massachusetts and Oklahoma, but the losses still stung. The Bobcats were hungry.
Following a pounding by Kentucky and an embarrassing home loss to Delaware State, Herd players had every reason to be just as hungry. Down 39-12 in no time, it was clear they weren't.
As I offer my annual Conference USA rankings at the start of league play, that's the most disturbing thing about this Herd team - more disturbing than the lack of a D.J. Cooper-like point guard, the injury to DeAndre Kane or any other individual factor.
In fairness, I wonder what effect the Robert Goff/Yous Mbao collision had on the team's psyche. Before then, the program lost an emotional investment in point guard Kareem Canty; since then, Kane's injury hasn't helped.
None of that matters when the Herd kicks off the league season at 7 p.m. Wednesday against Tulsa. If this MU team doesn't develop the hunger it showed down the stretch of 2011-12, these next two months will be tough to watch.
Much like the last few games.
The first thing to know about Conference USA this season: It will be a single-bid league, unless Memphis falls in the league tournament. Even then, a second spot in the NCAA tournament is not a cinch.
As usual, the league is loaded with fraudulent overall records. Six teams have 10 victories, but only Memphis has a worthy schedule among those.
But that doesn't mean every team has regressed. Tulane truly is better under Ed Conroy, Southern Methodist has to be better coached under Larry Brown, I suspect East Carolina is better and I know Texas-El Paso is better than its 6-6 record.
Others are going the other way, though. Southern Mississippi almost has to step back a notch, Tulsa has suffered five double-digit losses and the Rice program has collapsed. After losing their top players from a year ago, the Owls are a good bet to go 0-16 in the league.
The order:
1. Memphis (10-3)
2. Southern Miss (11-4)
3. Texas-El Paso (6-6)
NR. Central Florida (10-4)
4. Tulane (12-3)
6. Tulsa (9-6, 1-0)
7. East Carolina (9-4)
8. Marshall (7-8)
10. Houston (11-2)
11. Rice (3-10)
With UCF serving that postseason ban, only 11 teams will play in the C-USA tournament in Tulsa. That means the top five teams receive first-round byes and the sixth-place team faces Rice.
As recently as a month ago, one would have figured Marshall to be a shoo-in for the top six, but recent results have cast doubt on that. And a reminder: I nailed the Herd's No. 6 tournament seed last year.
But this is no time to gloat. If this Thundering Herd team can't regain its hunger, can't fight adversity, can't hold onto the ball any better at all positions, I am afraid my prediction will be woefully wrong.
On the optimistic side.

- The Artist
French Neo-Classical painter Jacques-Louis David (1748-1825) was the most prominently influential artist of his time and the only great master to emerge between the Rococo and the Romantic era. An active revolutionary with Robespierre, David gained prominence with Napolean's rise to power when he became the official court painter and literally defined the style of the era. Famous for his Empire style, he featured warm Venetian colors in a rebellion against Rococo fantasy which resulted in innovative compositional departures. After the Bourbon monarchy reclaimed the throne, he was exiled to Brussels where he took on many students and continued to paint.

Agriculture & Food
Nothing is more basic to human well-being than having enough nutritious food to eat. Yet one in every eight people in the world — 842 million — are trapped in a cycle of hunger and poverty.
The reality is that most of the world doesn't have the benefit of picking up food from the corner store — they grow it themselves. Hunger is a crisis when disaster ruins the harvest. It is a cycle when families cannot grow or buy enough to lead healthy, productive lives, and when the effects of malnutrition are passed on to the next generation.
When food shortages occur due to drought and conflict, Mercy Corps helps prevent hunger and treat malnutrition in the most vulnerable — children, pregnant women, the elderly and the displaced. We distribute vouchers, cash or emergency rations, working with local suppliers to speed delivery, save money and boost local economies.
In addition to emergency responses, we focus on long-term solutions that build future food security.
Mercy Corps helps farmers manage their land, increase their harvests and diversify crops to produce a larger, more nutritious, and stable food supply. By teaching nutrition and hygiene, we ensure families can utilize their resources to boost their health. And we connect farmers with new markets and introduce more efficient methods of tending productive livestock and processing and storing crops to increase incomes for years to come.
All stories about Agriculture & Food
Myanmar: An acre of rice for Kyi
In rural Sit Kone village, accessible only by a two-hour boat ride from the closest town, Kyi (pictured left) depends on his land to support his family of eight.
Niger: A goat for Santou
Feeding six children has not been easy for Santou — especially as a hunger crisis took hold of Niger and the entire Sahel region of West Africa this year.
Niger: Women farming more food
In the Djolley Fandou village in the drought-stricken Tillaberi region of Niger, women are in charge of the farming; most of the men left early on during the hunger crisis to find work in the city.
Niger: One more meal
At the second of three cash distributions in Niger, Mercy Corps staff heard that families have been able to eat one additional meal every day thanks to the support.
Ethiopia: Coping with drought by building peace
We sent out a team to research why one drought-stricken community was coping so well. The findings were striking: When local conflict had been addressed, people were far better equipped to survive the drought.
Mali: Families stock up on food
Mercy Corps teams are distributing emergency monthly vouchers to families in northern Mali that allow them to buy food on the local market. The money gets them a month's supply of the necessary basics they choose; most are stocking up on oil and rice.
Mali: Emergency food aid is just the start
Mercy Corps teams are now providing desperately needed assistance in Mali to those who are struggling to find enough to eat.
Ethiopia: Feeding hungry babies
In Ida Adays village, our mobile health team weighed seven-month-old Nasteho Mohamed and found her to be malnourished. She weighed only 4kg, but at her age should be somewhere around 4.8kg.
Myanmar: Bringing abundance back to the land of temples
Many families in Myanmar's Northern Rakhine state don't have enough to eat during the year. Unpredictable weather patterns have plagued small farmers and disrupted their productivity.
Zimbabwe: Innovative farming initiative recognized at Clinton gathering
Mercy Corps and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation were recognized at the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting in New York City on Tuesday for their Commitment to Action to implement Agri-Fin Mobile.

MSX FM is a Drum & Bass radio station in Grand Theft Auto III, hosted by MC Codebreaker. The station is also known as MSX 98 in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
Having a playlist that consists solely of Jungle/Drum and Bass music, the station's musical beat is fast paced and energetic, and characteristically features MC Codebreaker frequently MC'ing his own vocals into the continuous mix of music tracks, although his thick London accent makes his dialog hard to understand for those not aquainted with this style of music or MC'ing. Much like Rise FM in GTA III, the station is a continuous DJ mix of musical tracks, and as a result does not play advertising. The station's design references various real-life drum and bass-related subjects; the station's suffix is 101.1 - a reference to Timecode's (Rob Playford) mix CD 01.1 (Released on his record label 'Moving Shadow'), while MSX itself stands for "Moving Shadow".
Compared to Lips 106 and Head Radio (which are pop stations), this music is considered to be "hardcore", and is one of the radio stations tuned in by default when the player carjacks most Southside Hoods gang cars.
GTA Liberty City Stories
In GTA Liberty City Stories, MSX FM is known as "MSX 98" referencing 1998, the year in which the game takes place. Still hosted by MC Codebreaker, the host often references artists under the Moving Shadow record label. MSX 98 is usually played when the player steals a PCJ-600 or a Yakuza gang car.
All songs played in MSX FM in GTA III originate from Timecode's 2001 mix album titled "01.1".
- TJ Rizing - "Agent 007"
- Calyx - "Quagmire"
- Rascal and Klone - "Get Wild"
- Ryme Tyme - "Judgement Day"
- Hex - "Force"
- Omni Trio - "First Contact"
- Aquasky - "Spectre"
- Rascal and Klone - "Winner Takes All"
- Ryme Tyme - "T Minus"
- nCode - "Spasm"
- D Kay - "Monolith"
- Dom & Ryme Tyme - "Iceberg"
GTA Liberty City Stories
All tracks in MSX 98 are taken from Moving Shadow Records, which various British drum and bass pioneers are signed on.
- Omni Trio - "Renegade Snares"
- Renegade - "Terrorist"
- Foul Play - "Finest Illusion (Legal Mix)"
- Omni Trio - "Living For The Future (FBD Project Remix)"
- DJ Pulse - "Stay Calm (Foul Play Remix)"
- Hyper-On Experience - "Disturbance (Tango Remix)"
- Higher Sense - "Cold Fresh Air"
- Omni Trio - "Living For The Future"
- Omni Trio - "Thru The Vibe (2 on 1 Remix)"
- Deep Blue - "The Helicopter Tune"
- Dead Dred - "Dred Bass"
- Grand Theft Auto 2, Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories are the only Grand Theft Auto games to have a Drum & Bass radio station.
- The songs "Renegade Snares", "The Helicopter Tune" and "Spectre" are also featured in Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition, another Rockstar game.
- In GTA LCS, this is the Yakuza's favorite radio station .
- This is the Sicilian Mafia's favorite radio station
- This is also the Hitmen's favorite radio station.

Comments On Feb 05, 2014:I use it for an ice scraper on my truck than i do for mud.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jan 14, 2014:Spade is well made but my problem with it is that when trying to use the nylon brush, the scraper part of the tool interferes and hits on the bike and doesn't allow the brush to get into tight spaces. I ended up getting a separate scraper and nylon brush, and this works much better. I don't use this tool anymore.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 26, 2012:Does what it's supposed to do, but not with ease. Keep in mind this thing is smaller than it looks, it's about 20 inches or so. It's a tough material and scrapes well.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jan 29, 2011:As a pre cleaning tool to power washing, it works great. Saves hours on your pressure washer and mess. Not the best tool I have seen for this, but it works pretty good. Real cost saver when I have to wash the bikes on the road. It has already saved me enough just from this use to pay for itself.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jun 04, 2010:kind of flimsy, the curve doesn't do much good. its so thin it got sharpened after two uses. the brush is probably the best part. I wouldn't buy it again.

Written By UNC Sports Information Dept.
NEW YORK --- The John Mackey Award has released the 2013 John Mackey Award Midseason Watch List, and North Carolina junior Eric Ebron is among the 30 candidates.
Given annually to the most outstanding collegiate tight end, the award recipient is selected by vote of the John Mackey Award Selection Committee and will be presented live on December 12, 2013, at The Home Depot College Football Awards Red Carpet Show.
Ebron leads Carolina in both receptions (23) and receiving yards (333) and is on pace to break his own tight end school records in both categories.
A junior from Greensboro, N.C., Ebron would be the first tight end to lead the Tar Heels in receiving yards since Mike Chatham accomplished the feat in 1979 and 1980.
NFL Hall of Fame member John Mackey is considered to be the best to have played the tight end position. A tight end by whom all others are measured, Mackey was a role model on and off the field as demonstrated by his Super Bowl Championship, his commitment to community and his place in history as the first President of the NFLPA.
The John Mackey Award, presented since 2000, lists twelve NFL players as alumni, including two-time Super Bowl Champion Daniel Graham ('01), 2006 Super Bowl Champion Dallas Clark ('02) of the Baltimore Ravens, two-time Super Bowl Champion Heath Miller ('04) of the Pittsburgh Steelers and the 2012 John Mackey Award recipient Tyler Eifert of the Cincinnati Bengals.
The John Mackey Award is a member of the National College Football Awards Association (NCFAA) which encompasses the most prestigious awards in college football. The 21 awards boast 678 years of tradition-selection excellence. Visit www.NCFAA.org to learn more about our story.
The Friends of John Mackey is responsible for the administration of the John Mackey Award and the John Mackey Award Selection Committee. Please visit www.johnmackeyaward.com for all John Mackey Award related information.

LANDOVER, Md. (WUSA) -- The first month of Washington's season was all about "remember me?" matchups against their former teams for new Redskins starters: nose tackle Barry Cofield against the New York Giants; running back Tim Hightower against the Arizona Cardinals; defensive end Stephen Bowen against the Dallas Cowboys; and safety Oshimogho Atogwe against the St. Louis Rams.
Now after a three-game interlude, we're about to start old home week with the return of cornerback Carlos Rogers on Sunday in a San Francisco uniform. Washington's remaining home games feature visits from guard Derrick Dockery (Dallas), quarterback Mark Brunell (New York Jets), defensive linemen Albert Haynesworth and Andre Carter (New England) and quarterback Donovan McNabb (Minnesota).
Rogers was taken by the Redskins with the ninth overall pick in the 2005 draft. During his six seasons in Washington, Rogers played for three coaches and three defensive coordinators but in just two playoff games (he was sidelined for the first-round exit in 2007).
Known for his hands of stone with the Redskins whose last NFC East title came when he was in high school, Rogers has three interceptions - as many as the entire Washington secondary -- for the surprisingly strong 49ers who have a whopping four-game lead in the NFC West just seven weeks into the season.
In contrast in no surprise to Rogers, the Redskins have turned a 3-1 start into what's looking like another train wreck of a season with three straight defeats. Including its bye week, Washington hasn't won in more than a month. Only winless Indianapolis and Miami and 1-6 Arizona have gone longer without celebrating a victory.
In 2005, the Redskins lost six of eight after a 3-1 start and needed a 5-0 final tear to reach the playoffs. In 2006, a 2-2 beginning became a 5-11 finish. The next year, Washington lost its first four games of the second half and needed a 4-0 final month to grab a wild card.
Rogers, who had wanted out of Washington since he was first benched by former defensive coordinator Greg Blache in 2008, declined to rip the Redskins even though they didn't try to re-sign him during the offseason.
"I'm past the Redskins," Rogers said while noting that he loved playing for coaches Joe Gibbs, Gregg Williams, Jerry Gray, Steve Jackson, Danny Smith and Bob Slowik. "I just want to go out there and have fun, play against my friends for bragging rights. I got no hatred towards the (current) coaches. With that coaching staff, my mindset was already to get out of Washington."
Rogers was also close with several teammates, especially fellow cornerback DeAngelo Hall, and was such a cooperative and candid interview that he won the 2010 Good Guy Award in a vote of media who cover the Redskins.
What's not unbelievable is that Rogers is in a better place since leaving the Redskins. Many people are.

This is a remarkbale, brief analysis of the ASVAB done by the "Learning Not Recruiting" group in Toledo, Ohio.
Of the many roles you will play in the lives of your students, career planning is one of the most important. The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) strongly encourages counselors to collaborate with "administrators, teachers, staff, families and the community to ensure all students have the opportunity to design a rigorous and relevant academic and career program." One way to guide students in exploring career possibilities is through aptitude and career assessment testing.

April 2012 - Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery test
The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a skills and guidance test developed, funded and graded by the US military. It is a necessary requirement when entering the military, but it is also used in 14,000 high schools in the United States.72 It is open to high school juniors and seniors, withthe vast majority of participants being under 18, and with some as young as 15.73 The test is a means of assessing a student's strengths and weaknesses with a view to informing their future career paths, including the appropriateness of a career in the military,74 which in turn advises recruiters which students they should approach.the military also uses the ASVAB to obtain students' personal contact information, including their name, address, phone number and social security details.76 Crucially, unlike the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) act parents do not have the ability to opt out and prevent their child's personal information from being released to third parties.77 Therefore, student information that has been withheld by opting out of NCLBcan be released to the military via the ASVAB. Whilst schools have the ability to prevent data from being passed on to the military, information from the National Coalition to Protect Student Privacy78 indicates that few school administrators are aware of this.79 Various sources have indicated that children are oftenunaware of the voluntary nature of the test or its links to the military,80 and there have been instances of students being actively informed that the test was mandatory.81 Child Soldiers International contends that US campaign to stop the use of child soldiers, United States of America: Compliance with the Optional protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the involvement of children in armed conflict, Submission to the Committee on the Rights of the Child from the US campaign to stop the use of child soldiers, November 2007.

Oprah likes the shoes from Happy Feet Plus
I admit, Oprah didn't specifically mention the shoes we sell at Happy Feet Plus, but an article from her magazine says all the right things about the kinds of footwear we sell.
Last week Jane, one of the Happy Feet Plus owners, told me that Birkenstock and Mephisto shoes were mentioned on a recent Dr. Oz show. I went looking for the show segment and struck out. While I was poking around looking for the reference I came across a 2007 article from O, The Oprah Magazine. The information comes from Jaleh Hoofar, a doctor of podiatric medicine.
Dr. Hoofar's article is right on target. All of the footwear that we support at happyfeet.com has the features that Dr. Hoofar espouses. If you want to read her full article see The Shoe Doctor Is In.

Television in GTA V

|This article concerns a game that is unreleased.
Some details may be speculative, and may turn out to be incorrect.
|This article or section contains insufficient information and is considered as a Stub. You can help GTA Wiki by expanding it as much as you can.
In GTA V and GTA Online, television has been extensivly changed. There are many new features brought with it that feature in single player, and multiplayer.
In single player, TV stays practically the same as it was in GTA IV, but in multiplayer, there are many new things. If a player gets invited to another players apartment, the player owning the apartment can tune into CCTV on their television in their room to see who is at the door. Also, since Police Mavericks now have cameras on the front, if another player has a high wanted rating and is being chased by the police, the player in their apartment can watch the police chase in-game live by tuning in to Weazel News. However, this system seems to randomly choose a player, since many players may have a wanted rating too.

Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is a disorder with recurrent episodes of severe nausea and vomiting interspersed with symptom free periods. While CVS has been studied in pediatric populations, its occurrence in adults has been underappreciated. It is now thought that this crippling syndrome can occur in a range of age groups from children to adults. Recognizing and treating the condition are discussed.

By: Information Adapted from the National Diseases Information Clearinghouse NIH
Gastritis is not a single disease, but several different conditions that all have inflammation of the stomach lining. Symptoms, tests, and treatments are described.
Fact Sheet: Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome817
Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) was first described about 120 years ago by Dr. Samuel Gee, the erudite British physician. Interest in the syndrome was revived when Kathleen Adams, a parent of an affected child founded the Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome Association in 1993. She enlisted the support of pediatric gastroenterologists, Drs. David Fleisher and B.U.K. Li, who recognized that better treatment of the disorder would only occur if the syndrome could be scientifically defined for medical researchers.

The Greenwood is a car available in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
The Greenwood is designed as a boxy American 4-door sedan with a landau, originally fitting during its appearances in GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, but beginning to show its age during GTA San Andreas' timeline, when newer cars have appeared. In GTA Vice City Stories, the car's body color is usually restricted to a light blue-gray body with a white landau.
The Greenwood bears a strong resemblance to a Chrysler Fifth Avenue. The grille, vinyl roof and headlights are closer to the Fifth Avenue but the headlights have been moved above the turning signals. The year range would be around 1982-1985 due no CHMSL. It is most likely a Schyster car.
Though the speed and acceleration are less than ideal, the handling is improved over comparable vehicles found in the same areas and the braking is pretty good. The front-engine, rear-drive vehicle is heavy and relatively sturdy, capable of withstanding a good deal of damage and making it a relatively solid choice for drive-bys and primary transport. The Greenwood is powered by a V8 engine.
Modifications (GTA San Andreas)
- Color (two; car body and landau)
- Hood scoops (Fury & Champ)
- Nitro (all)
- Roof scoops (Standard)
- Spoilers (Worx & Pro)
- Wheels (11 types)
- Car Stereo
- Hydraulics
GTA Vice City
- Usually seen in Ocean Beach, Downtown and Little Haiti.
- Spawns more when the player is already driving one.
GTA San Andreas
- Normally seen in Ganton and Idlewood.
- Outside Sweet's house in Grove Street.
- Often spawns in rural areas.
GTA Vice City Stories
- Spawns a lot in Downtown.
- Spawns usually driving a Pony or a Banshee.
- Sometimes spawns in the North Point Mall parking garage.
- A Greenwood makes two brief appearances in Rockstar North's Manhunt 2.
- In GTA San Andreas, the Greenwood plays Radio Los Santos by default when entered.
- A glitch occurs when either rear door is damaged upon collision with an object in the GTA San Andreas version of the car. When damaged, the door changes appearance and reverts to the GTA Vice City design.
- In the beta version of GTA San Andreas, the Greenwood's design was like in GTA Vice City.
- In GTA San Andreas, Sweet's Greenwood's license plate has a license plate stating "GROVE4L"(Grove for Life), but if you wreck the rear bumper it will show a random plate (Only in PC version).
- Sweet's Greenwood plays either Bounce FM or CSR 103.9 by default.
- This car can appear as a backup vehicle in a Robbery mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and Hit the Courier in GTA Vice City.
- In Vice City Stories, the car's color cannot be changed at a Pay 'n' Spray

A fine young man came to see me recently with a problem that is almost universal. When he was a youth he dreamed of a specific career, but circumstances barred him from the job on which his heart had been set. Now he is disappointed and feels cheated.
He wanted to be a doctor, but he did not have the money necessary for his education, and had to quit school and go to war. Now his chance to be a doctor is gone and he is filled with regret. There are a lot of people who have not been able to do the things their hearts were once set on doing.

Sennelier Extra-Fine Acrylique Paints contain only the highest-quality pigments, selected to assure clarity, purity, opacity, and stability over time. A broad palette of 120 colors includes all the colors that made Sennelier's Artists' Oils famous.
Color Swatch created using heavy application/medium application/50% tint and was applied on acrylic primed canvas (7 oz) material.
carbazole dioxazine
Dioxazine Violet is transparent and has very high tinting strength. It is a staining pigment, very dark valued when it is used at full strength. Concentrated, it paints out nearly black, but it mixes with Titanium White to form bright, opaque tints of purple. PV23 produces slightly redder shades than PV37. Because the hue can vary with the conditions of preparation and grinding, it may be offered in red shade, blue shade, and so forth.
Dioxazine Violet has good lightfastness. There may be some concern about it fading or shifting in color in tints and washes. Some artists have reported that PV37, a molecular variant, is more lightfast than PV23.
Two molecular variants of Dioxazine Violet, PV23 and PV37, are available. They have similar properties, but mix slightly differently.
Dioxazine Purple, Chromothal Violet, Mauve, Carbazole Violet.
titanium dioxide
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies give no indiciation that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. Titanium White, if inhaled in large amounts over the course of several years, may cause a benign pneumoconiosis that is visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.

Wow! The COOLPIX P510 sounds like the perfect travel camera.
If the GPS implementation is better than on the Sony HX100V (which sucks, since it has to lock anew every time the camera is turned on), this will be my new travel camera :)
Nikon has updated its photographer-friendly P series with the Coolpix P510 and P310. The P510 gains GPS and an extended zoom, now reaching from 24-1000mm equivalent. This 42x range is likely to be quite a challenge for its VR image stabilization system, so we'll be interested to see how it performs. The P310 is a more subtle upgrade of the P300. Like the P510 it gains a 920k dot LCD and moves to using a 16MP back-lit CMOS sensor, with all the high-speed, multi-shot image processing modes it enables. More than any of the technology changes, we're most interested to see the addition of a 'Fn' button on the front - if this can be set to control useful functions, it may improve the handling of an already pleasant-to-use camera.
Both cameras offer 1080p30 with stereo sound recording. The fast sensor also allows them to offer a Night Landscape mode that combines multiple shots to average out noise, and an Advanced Night Portrait mode that does much the same thing, but includes a flash image of your subject to prevent the 'my friends in a coalmine' effect. There's also an in-camera HDR option.
The Coolpix P510 will have a suggested selling price of $429.95, while the P310 will cost around $329.95

|Nikon Coolpix P510 - also available in red
The 42x COOLPIX P510 is the Ultimate Ultra-Long Zoom Camera, While the Fast Aperture Lens of the COOLPIX P310 Makes it the Advanced Photographer's Compact Companion
MELVILLE, NY (Jan. 31, 2012) – Today, Nikon Inc. introduced two new COOLPIX cameras into the P-series, providing photographers with amazing optics from compact offerings for their next adventure-packed outing. Breaking the zoom barrier, the new COOLPIX P510 brings the action close with an impressive 42x optical Zoom-NIKKOR ED glass lens, from a wide 24mm to an amazing 1,000mm* focal range. When the adventure begins once the sun sets, the new COOLPIX P310 tackles demanding low-light conditions with a 16.1-megapixel Backside Illuminated (BSI) CMOS sensor and a fast f/1.8 maximum aperture, NIKKOR glass lens. From the expansive Serengeti horizon, thunderous waterfalls of the Amazon to the jazz-infused nightlife setting of New Orleans, Nikon's new COOLPIX P-series cameras enable photographers to capture any adventure with astounding clarity.
"With the new COOLPIX P-series cameras, Nikon is raising the bar for performance and image quality to better accommodate the needs of advanced photographers looking for a compact companion," said Bo Kajiwara, director of marketing, Nikon Inc. "Both the COOLPIX P510 and P310 combine Nikon's legendary NIKKOR lenses and advanced features to challenge photographers creatively in environments that call for portability and easy access."
COOLPIX Technology
At the core of these powerful new COOLPIX cameras are Nikon's world-class NIKKOR lenses, delivering accurate detail, brilliant color and amazing clarity. Further enhancing color and sharpness, Nikon's EXPEED C2™ high performance digital image processing engine is implemented and custom-optimized for each COOLPIX model to ensure high-quality pictures and movies.
Shattering the conventional zoom barrier, the new COOLPIX P510 features a staggering 42x Wide-Angle NIKKOR glass zoom lens. The astounding zoom range of 24mm to 1,000mm with advanced optical Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization ensures that the photographer captures their intended subject with exceptional image quality. With this kind of extreme focal length, the need for superior image stabilization becomes essential for photos and HD video. Photographers are given increased stability with the additional zoom control located on the side of the lens barrel.
To further enhance image quality and help combat challenging low-light conditions, the COOLPIX P510 includes an advanced 16.1-megapixel BSI CMOS sensor. Utilizing the high-speed continuous shooting performance (capture five images at full resolution in approximately one second) of the CMOS sensor and fast autofocus (AF), the COOLPIX P510 makes it possible to capture even the most spontaneous moments.
This full-featured compact camera also comes complete with built-in GPS capabilities, allowing photographers to track their adventures and geotag photos. The COOLPIX P510 also includes Full HD (1080p) movie recording with stereo sound and the ability to utilize the expansive zoom range during recording with AF for dynamic videos. A 3-inch high resolution (921,000-dot) vari-angle monitor makes it easy to compose images and movies from difficult angles. Additionally, The COOLPIX P510 features a variety of advanced functions for the sophisticated user seeking smooth handling with intuitively placed controls such as the mode dial that enables easy setting of frequently used functions on the fly.
The new COOLPIX P310 achieves superior image quality in low-light settings thanks to the powerful combination of a 16.1-megapixel BSI CMOS sensor, wide ISO range up to 3200 (Hi1 6400 equivalent) and a fast, wide-angle maximum aperture f/1.8 lens. The COOLPIX P310 further fights blur by incorporating advanced optical VR image stabilization and makes shooting in low-light a breeze with several scene modes including Advanced Night Portrait mode, Night Landscape mode and Backlight/High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode. The Advanced Night Portrait mode combines consecutive images of the background while the subject is captured using the flash, while the Night Landscape mode combines a series of consecutive shots taken at a fast shutter speed into a single image with reduced noise. The Backlight HDR mode merges images of the same scene at different exposures to achieve a single image with a broad range of tonal detail.
Designed to be the serious photographer's compact companion, the COOLPIX P310 comes equipped with several features found in D-SLR cameras including manual exposure control (P/S/A/M) and a new Zoom Memory function that enables the selection of popular prime focal lengths during shooting. Through an easily accessible top-mounted control wheel, users are able to adjust shutter speed, aperture and other settings in order to achieve their preferred look. For more creativity, the COOLPIX P310 also includes special effects and filter effects that can be added to photos in-camera for a quick artistic touch. To facilitate easy composing, viewing and playback, the COOLPIX P310 features a 3-inch high resolution (921,000-dot) LCD screen.
Understanding the demand for a capable multimedia camera, the COOLPIX P310 also sports incredible video capabilities. With the ability to capture Full HD (1080p) video at 30 frames-per-second (fps) with AF, stereo sound and the use of the optical zoom while recording, the COOLPIX P310 also lets users edit movies in-camera for a seamless moviemaking experience.

Access to Research and Propagation Materials
Permits are required for all research and collecting activity, and are issued following review. When propagation material is limited, priority is given to those individuals and organizations that are members of the Friends of the Arnold Arboretum.
Research Material
The living collections of the Arnold Arboretum comprise a valuable genetic resource that represents a large subset of the combined ligneous floras of the North Temperate Zone. The Arboretum strongly encourages and supports the use and distribution of its living collections for research. We can provide access to the plants growing in the collection, supply voucher herbarium specimens, furnish fresh or preserved tissue, or collect propagules.
Researchers who wish to access the living collections to conduct on-site experiments or make observations, or to request voucher herbarium specimens or tissue (fresh or dried in silica gel), can email queries to the Curation Department; written requests should be addressed to:
Curator of Living Collections
The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University
125 Arborway Boston, MA 02130
United States
Please include your name and affiliation, nature of the request, and the taxa of interest. To all extents practicable, curatorial staff can also assist researchers in developing their study.
Note that permits are required for all research and collecting activity, and are issued following review. Access to the collections is provided free of charge, including the cost of shipping material. However, the use of a recipient's courier account (FedEx preferred) is appreciated. For any requests that require intensive curatorial support, particularly over an entire growing season(s), we ask that scholars consider offsetting some of the costs.
Propagation Material
Many of the taxa in the living collections are of conservation value due to their threatened status in the wild. As a consequence, the Arnold Arboretum views its collections as an alternative source of limited amounts of propagation material of these as well as more commonplace but little-known plants. However, the Arboretum does not normally supply propagation materials of plants that are known to be generally available from any commercial source in North America. We also retain the right to refuse distribution of propagation material that represents species and/or clones that are planned for introduction by the Arnold Arboretum, those which fall under memoranda of understanding with third parties, or for other curatorial reasons.
With respect to seed requests, it should be noted that seeds collected from Arboretum plants are the result of open pollination, and no guarantee can be made that they will grow true to name. This fact is particularly true for large genera that are represented by many species in our collections. Requests for propagation material should be directed to contact listed above. Please include the botanical name and the approximate amount of plant material desired. Material will be collected and processed by the staff as time and weather permits.
Foreign Requests
Requests for material originating in foreign countries must be accompanied by the proper import permits and/or mailing labels for importation purposes. Every effort will be made to supply the requested material, but the number of plants held within our collection and their condition will be the limiting factor. Requests held to a reasonable number, twelve or fewer, will be filled at a greater speed. Except for requests from sister botanical institutions and academic departments, a fee is charged for propagation materials to offset the costs involved in providing them. A fee will be also be added to cover inspection by agents of the United States Department of Agriculture for phytosanitary certificates for all international orders.
Fee Schedule (US Dollar)
Plant Material
|Cuttings and scions
|$.50 ea
|Cuttings and scions of dwarf conifers
|$1.00 ea
|Cuttings and scions of special rare plants
|$2.00 ea
|Collecting, packaging, and shipping (minimum of 1 hour)
|Aerial lift (necessary for collecting scions and seeds from larger trees)
|U.S. Department of Agriculture Phytosanitary Certificates (international orders)
All shipments will include an invoice; payment by check in US dollars should be sent upon receipt of the plant material. Prepayment is discouraged since cuttings, scions, or seeds of requested plants may not be available. If the cost of the order is expected to be high, notification will be made before a request is processed.

Maine Gov. Paul LePage and Public Safety Commissioner John Morrison say they learned some troubling details today about the extent of Maine's drug problem. The two held a pair of meetings billed as "drug summits" with police and other officials in Westbrook and Auburn. As Susan Sharon reports, the governor plans to introduce a series of bills in the next legislative session to reduce the number of drug-dependent babies born in Maine, and to crack down on repeat drug offenders.
Gov. Paul LePage says when it comes to drug abuse, he thought he'd heard it all. Turns out, he hadn't.
"Two things I've heard that I never knew about: Dentists prescribe a lot of opiates, and veterinarians are also involved in the drug trade by prescribing opiate drugs for the pets - and that's a growing trend," he says.
In other words, people are drug seeking through their pets. They show up at the veterinarian's office, complain that the pet is in pain, get a prescription for pain medication and go on to abuse it themselves.
That was just one of several stories the governor says he heard from local police in his meetings. The other front-burner issues involve the increase in heroin use around Maine, funding cuts to the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency and the increasing number of drug dependent babies born in the state: 835 in the past year.
"And when I heard 835, I was very upset," LePage says. "But then I found out that a state like Tennessee, which is much larger than Maine - they're upset that they have 800, so what's that say to Maine? That's probably another one of those unfortunate situations where we're number one again. We have to do a better job."
The meetings with the governor and local law enforcement were closed to the press. But the drug epidemic is not just a southern Maine problem, it's a statewide one. In Ellsworth, Police Chief John DeLeo has been accustomed to dealing with prescription drug abuse, along with cocaine and marijuana trafficking. But last week, the city could have been the setting for an episode of the hit TV show "Breaking Bad."
DeLeo says two men and a woman set up a mobile methamphetamine lab in the middle of a parking lot at the Hampton Inn. All three were arrested, but DeLeo says things could have gotten more dangerous for a city that has had relatively little experience in dealing with meth labs.
"It got a little scary," DeLeo says. "I don't think a lot of people realize how dangerous the drug itself is, but just the process of cooking it and the chemicals involved."
DeLeo says LePage and the Legislature can assist local police departments in three ways: enforcement, prevention and treatment. Federal funding for Maine drug enforcement has declined from $3 million to about $1 million a year. And the problem is not just at the federal level. The Maine Legislature cut the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency's budget by $350,000 this year. Brewer Police Chief Perry Antone says the funding cut will be felt by the state's premier drug enforcement unit.
"Maine Drug Enforcement, obviously, has been cut back through the years, and increasing the enforcement efforts is important, holding people accountable," Antone says. "Because a lot of the drugs that we're seeing now are so much more dangerous to people's health, as well as the public, that enforcement really needs to be active on that."
Gov. LePage says he hasn't decided what will be included in the package of bills he'll introduce to tackle substance abuse, but he says he intends to address the number of drug agents on the ground, attempt to crack down on repeat drug offenders who are winding up in jail, and explore options for treatment.
But the governor is not a big fan of maintenance medications such as methadone and Suboxone to treat opiate addiction. "The biggest problem, the biggest drug and the most dangerous drug to a child, is methadone."
But evidence indicates that there are also benefits for the use of methadone. According to the National Institutes of Health, of the various treatments available, methadone maintenance combined with counseling "has the highest probabilitiy of being effective." In addition, the NIH maintains that "the safety and efficacy of methadone maintenance has been unequivocally established."
The LePage administration has repeatedly sought to restrict MaineCare coverage for patients receiving methadone and Suboxone. Currently there's a two-year limit.
