ST. JOHN PLANTATION, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - After spending a night trapped under his snowmobile, weathering wind chill temperatures near zero degrees and heavy squalls, a man from Massachusetts is recovering in the hospital.
A friend of 64 year old Paul Lessard, who is from Milford, Massachusetts, called the Warden Service to say that Lessard hadn't returned from a snowmobile ride Tuesday.
Searchers immediately hit the trails, covering 110 miles by 2:30 AM. Wardens called off the search until Wednesay morning.
Two volunteers, Phil and Tyler Corriveau, decided to join in the search Wednesday and before they could even meet up with the coordinating Wardens they came across Lessard.
Lessard was trapped under his snowmobile in a ditch next to the trail. He was conscious but showing signs of hypothermia.
He's being treated at the Northern Maine Medical Center.

Maggie Shayne began her writing career in kindergarten,
when she painstakingly copied The Brementown Musicians onto construction
paper in full Crayola color, complete with illustrations of her own design,
and presented it proudly to her teacher. Of course this was not an exact copy.
She had tweaked the story a bit, improving it greatly, in her five-year-old
By third grade her tastes had matured. At story hour, when
it was her turn to choose the book from which the teacher would read, Maggie
picked Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart, which she proceeded to recite from
memory as the teacher began reading. Far from being suitably impressed, Maggie
recalls her teacher seemed to pale a bit, and looked at her oddly from then
Her fondness for the macabre stayed with her, as did her
penchant for rewriting her favorite stories. As a teen, while watching her beloved
Universal Pictures Monster Classics over and over, she became more and more
certain someone had to fix the endings.
It was so obvious that Dracula, the Wolfman, and the dusty
Mummy had been cheated! These were not horror flicks, in her teenage opinion.
They were romances.
They portrayed a love that went beyond life itself. But
the endings were all wrong. Anyone could see the monster was supposed to get
the girl!
Well, one marriage and five daughters later, Maggie has
made it her mission in life to see to it that old wrongs are set right.
Her stories range from down-home Westerns (Texas Brand miniseries,
Silhouette Books) to glitz (Million Dollar Marriage, 8/99) to modern-day
fairy tales (her Avon contemporary titles).
But her best love is the genre known as paranormal romance.
And Maggie writes these like no other author. No one else writing today manages
to combine the hearts of two such diverse genres as romance and horror, while
still thrilling both segments of the readership with the stunning results.
Shamelessly romantic, breathtakingly emotional, chilling
in their suspense, with edge-of-the-seat tension, her stories capture the classic
allure that makes beauty-and-the-beast tales so belovedthe key, is the
redemption of the monster by the sheer power of love.

The Prevention and Combating of Corruption Bureau (PCCB) is investigating ministers and government executives implicated by the Controller and Auditor General (CAG) report in corruption, embezzlement, abuse of office and other malpractices.
The anti-corruption watchdog's latest crackdown against "alleged-corrupt" ministers and executives comes a few days after President Jakaya announced his new cabinet line-up in the wake of massive corruption allegations in the public circles.
In an exclusive interview with The Guardian yesterday, Dr Edward Hosea PCCB Director General said that interrogation of the respective ministers had already started and is continuing.
"In fact, we have started questioning them …but I cannot be specific about when the task will be completed," said Hosea.
"Remember such investigations take time and involve a number of procedures," he added.
The PCCB chief refused to disclose the ministers and executives interrogated so far or lined up for questioning, all the ministers and executives who were implicated in the CAG report would be investigated.
The bureau's investigations would focus on the allegation of corruption, accumulation of huge and questionable wealth (such as posh residential houses) facing the ministers. "These are the areas we will focus on, as per the law that established the bureau," he insisted.
He stressed: "As per the law, after the investigations are completed, PCCB is required to submit the report to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) for further legal actions against the culprits."
In the new-look cabinet line up, President Jakaya Kikwete left out six cabinet ministers and two deputy ministers, accused of mishandling their dockets, including corruption and possessing posh houses among other allegations.
Those who lost the president's confidence are minister for Finance Mustafa Mkullo, who has been replaced by a new face, Dr William Mgimwa, William Ngeleja, who has been replaced by a new appointee, Professor Sospeter Muhongo, and minister for Transport, Omari Nundu, who has been replaced by Dr Harrison Mwakyembe, who has been promoted from the ministry of Works where he was a deputy minister.
Other ministers who were dropped included Ezekiel Maige Natural Resources and Tourism minister whose portfolio has been filled in by former deputy minister for Home Affairs Khamis Kagasheki.
Industry and Trade minister Cyril Chami, has been replaced by Dr Abdallah Kigoda, while Dr Hussein Mwinyi has been named the new minister for Health and Social Welfare replacing Haji Mponda.
Announcing the new cabinet line-up, President Kikwete said he had decided to make the changes upon receiving a report on the heated debate in the national Assembly during the April seating in Dodoma, where seven ministers were accused of being irresponsible, resulting in the country losing billions of shillings through malpractices, including embezzlement and outright theft.
He however cautioned: "We have decided that the ministers are taking political responsibility, but sometimes the ministers face such action without themselves having been involved in the misdeeds.
So, we have decided that executives whose actions have resulted in the ministers vacating their posts will also be shown the door, be they chief executive officers or directors. We'll get rid of them."

Hymn of Kassiani
The Hymn of Kassiani, also known as the Hymn of the Fallen Woman, is a work classified as a Penitential Hymn that is based on Mary Magdalene [1]. This hymn is chanted only once a year and considered a musical high-point of the Holy Week, at the Matins of Holy Wednesday, in the Fourth Plagal Tone [2].
One story, related by Saint Theodora in The Great Synaxaristes of the Orthodox Church holds that Abbess Kassiani spent the afternoon in the garden composing this hymn. As she finished writing that verse which says, I shall kiss Thine immaculate feet, and wipe them again with the tresses of my head. she was informed that Emperor Theophilos had arrived at the convent. She did not wish to see him, and in her haste to conceal herself, left behind the scroll and pen. Theophilos, having entered the garden, found her half-completed poem, and added the phrase, those feet at whose sound Eve hid herself for fear when she heard Thee walking in Paradise in the Afternoon. After he departed, Kassiani came out from hiding. When she took up her composition, she beheld the phrase written in his handwriting. She retained it and went on to complete the poem.
Hymn of Kassiani text
Sensing Thy divinity, O Lord, a woman of many sins
And in deep mourning brings before Thee fragrant oil
- takes it upon herself to become a myrrh-bearer,
"Woe to me!" For night is to me, oestrus of lechery,
- in anticipation of Thy burial; crying:
Receive the wellsprings of my tears,
- a dark and moonless eros of sin.
Bend to me, to the sorrows of my heart,
- O Thou who gatherest the waters of the oceans into clouds.
I will kiss Thine immaculate feet
- O Thou who bendedst down the heavens in Thy ineffable self-emptying.
Those very feet whose sound Eve heard at dusk in Paradise
- and dry them with the locks of my hair;
Who shall reckon the multitude of my sins,
- and hid herself in fear.
Do not ignore Thy handmaiden,
- or the abysses of Thy judgment, O Saviour of my soul?
- O Thou whose mercy is endless.

Professor Heliotrope Wilkins was a witch, and former headmistress of Hogwarts.
Heliotrope served as Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry sometime before Armando Dippet.
After her death, sometime in or before 1992, her portrait was hung in the Headmaster's office, in order to give advice to the current Head. [1] She also had portraits hung at the Grand Staircase. [2]
Behind the scenes
- Heliotrope Wilkins's portrait seems to be a direct reference to a 1766 portrait of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, by Allan Ramsay.
Heliotrope is a term used to describe a plant, which turns to face the sun, derived from the Greek helios, "sun", and tropein, "to turn." [3] In the language of flowers, heliotropes represent devotion.[4] Miss Heliotrope is a character in The Little White Horse, a 1946 novel by Elizabeth Goudge, which was a childhood favourite of J. K. Rowling. [5]
Wilkins is an English patronymic surname based on Wilkin, [6] a nickname of the given names Will and William, [7] which both derive from Wilhelm, a Germanic name made up of the elements wil, "will", and helm, "helmet". [8] on Behind the Name</ref> This was also the surname Hermione Granger chose, when she invented new identities for her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Granger, and sent them into hiding for safety's sake, during the Second Wizarding War.

TBI is a leading cause of death and disability in children and adults. Improvements in treatment and care have increased survival rates for those with TBI, while also increasing the rates of TBI patients with persistent physical, cognitive, behavioral and social deficits. Despite dramatic increases in our understanding of TBI during the past two decades, there is still much to learn about this complex condition.
The NICHD's National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research (NCMRR) established the TBI-CT Network in 2002 to conduct multicenter observational studies and clinical trials of patients with TBI. The overarching goal of the network is to:
Researchers in the TBI-CT Network are still conducting data analyses and other activities related to Network studies, but the Network itself is not currently receiving additional NICHD funding.
The TBI-CT Network included research teams at eight sites and a Data Coordinating Center (DCC). Staff from the NCMRR's Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and Stroke Rehabilitation (TSR) Program provided scientific oversight for the Network.
One of the primary activities of the TBI-CT Network was to create a working definition of TBI. In addition, the Network aimed to:
Other research topics studied through the TBI-CT Network included (but were not limited to):
In addition, Network researchers initiated and successfully enrolled patients in the Citicoline Brain Injury Trial (COBRIT) to evaluate the effect of 90 days of citicoline on the functional outcomes of patients with complicated mild, moderate, and severe TBI. Citicoline, a compound found throughout the body, offers potential neuroprotective properties as well as facilitating neurorepair post injury. Citicoline was approved for use in TBI in 59 countries. COBRIT is a two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III, multicenter trial that employs stringent neuroimaging and clinical criteria to assure accurate enrollment. Functional outcomes are assessed at 30, 90, and 180 days after injury. A corollary study is evaluating the role of genetic markers to establish a TBI genetics database. Analysis of data from COBRIT and the related study are currently underway; findings will be published once the analysis is complete. For more information on COBRIT, visit http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19803786.
The TBI-CT Network no longer receives funding, but data analysis activities are ongoing. Funded clinical sites within the Network included:
Columbia University served as the DCC for the Network.

What era is your setting?
So I decided that I wanted to try making a city map for the first time. Rather than start from scratch, I decided to work with one of the cities I'd named in the map I finished earlier this fall. I found pyrandon's tutorial and used that as a guide. I'd started my second draft on where roads would go when I realized that I'd completely forgotten to consider the scale. I'd cut the relevant section of map from the largest version of my other map and had blown it up a couple times, traced the coastline and made a new map from it. So there was a scale already attached. I just forgot about it. Anyway, here is what I had before I realized I needed to start over.
Anyway, a list of things I have messed up:
1. Roads that were way too wide.
2. A city that was about 500 miles wide.
3. Trying to make a city that's about 20x20 miles, when that is not realistic for the time.
4. Spending hours trying to massage a scale into something manageable before I realized #3.

What era is your setting?
Late medieval/early Renaissance-ish. Trade in the region (portions of four continents centered around a sea) is flourishing and there are a few major city-states that have grown thanks to increased trade. Innovations/inventions/etc are on the rise, leading to increasingly larger urban populations, with all the troubles that brings. The region is optimistic overall.
I have updated the regional map and have marked where the cities will go so that I can finally start on the city. On this map 9.7 pixels is 1 mile. The largest of the three purple dots is Durndl. I looked up some information on Italian city-states, as well Medieval Demographics Made Easy, to get an idea of how large the city would actually be.
It isn't a perfect regional map, but that wasn't the point. From what I figure Durndl is about 2 square miles and has a population of about 80k.
(I've opened a new document now 3520x3520 so that each px is 3ft. Now back to the tutorial I was attempting to use in the first place.)

All right. I've made the backdrop for the city and I've sketched out the streets. I figured the main cart roads would be about 15 feet across, while the secondary streets would be half that. Smaller streets are not shown. The cart roads connect to the city gates and divide some of the wards. All of the first ten wards were divided by a cart road. Later on each ward is bordered on one side by one. Some of the secondary roads were done by the city's government; others were commissioned by the wards.
(For example, unless I change my mind, Ward 17 is actually a thriving merchant area, rather than a space for the poor. Many of the poor live in the older wards and where there are fewer larger roads (but numerous smaller ones).)
Since this is just a sketch, I can change the road sizes if I miscalculated. When I did them I did not have access to the net so I couldn't check average road width or cart sizes.
The image with the black background is to make everything easier to see. The numbers and red outlines refer to the wards. The wards are numbered in order of creation (with some fumbling among the first ten).
Right now I'm wondering if it wouldn't be easier to cut out each ward and work on them one at a time, then piece them back together. (Each ward has its own police station and representative. Some representatives are chosen by lots to work on the governing body. Others are temporarily appointed to the Petitioner's court or else something I'm not sure of yet. Guilds have their own representatives. This system is based on/stolen from Renaissance Florence pre-Medici).

Thanks. I admit, going back over those roads at the moment is a little daunting. So I've been working on other parts, such as making a better map of the wards to possibly use as an eventual overlay. The majority of my time, however, has been in working on some of the stuff behind the map.
Using Medieval Demographics Made Easy, the 1427 Florence Catasto, the Cartographical demographics tutorial for the GDP sections, and a few other sites, I made a set of worksheets for Durndl to calculate, well, a lot. I also have it fully linked between pages so that I don't have to copy-paste and can use it for my next city-state project. DurndlWorksheet.zip
It isn't finished yet, as I'd like to add better demographics information and pages for taxes and the military. I don't know what else would be useful and/or interesting.
This is looking fantastic, can't wait to see this develop. I love the amount of thought you're putting into the social aspects of the city.
All right. I've completed the large cart roads for the entire city and the secondary roads for the old city. The dotted line around the edges of 9/10/etc is the old city wall. Parts of it are still standing. Other portions were torn down for roads, buildings, etc. Some parts of the wall are used as a fourth wall for buildings. One of the old gates is now a popular inn. Ward 5 has three important areas in it. The circle in the middle of it is where the castle stands. The castle is now used as the seat of government. All of the representatives have an office there. The upper left side of five is where the guilds keep their main offices (though many may have have additional offices elsewhere in the city). The area to the right is the main branch of the police and the petitioners' court, which serves as both a judicial court and forum for hearing citizens' complaints and ideas. The head judge brings the petitions that the judges have decided are worth the city's attention to the city council.
Unlike the outer wards, the inner wards work together in a more coherent city system. The outer wards are usually more like cities in miniature. (Note: The wards were first decided by the City Warden/Police Chief. The ward divided the city into wards in order to make the city police more efficient.)
As for my excel workbook, I used the price given for a price of goods in 1480 Florence (http://www3.telus.net/Quattrocento_F...e/economy.html) to figure out how much my currency is worth. I don't how I came to the calculation, but I decided that three loaves of bread would equal the rough third of a pound of wheat used daily. Then, assuming the bread would consume the same percentage of the total cost in my currency as it did in Florentine Lire, I figured the cost of the bundle, a living wage, and some more. From that I was also able to convert between USD and my currency. Pointless and very roughly calculated, but still nice to know.
Anyway, my next task there is to figure out a tax system. I know I want the city to set a flat task for each ward based on its population. I also want the guilds to be responsible for an additional tax. They would be opposed to the tax on one hand, but would accept it also as a way to justify their presence on the council. There might also be a deal about importing fees. The individual wards would be allowed to charge an additional tax on top of what is required of them by the city. This money would be used to pay for ward needs/etc. Maybe.
This is the final placement of the main streets throughout Durndl. There are smaller streets, but they aren't shown at the moment as they'd only be about 1 to 1.67 pixels wide. Scale is going to be an ongoing problem, I think. As much as I'd like to fill the blocks with buildings, that doesn't seem like it is feasible (scale is 3 feet per pixel with dimensions 3520x3520). So I thought about treating this like a political map, at least at this scale, and just marking points of interest. I'm still wavering on that though.
Does anyone know any useful maps or tuts I could look over and steal ideas from?
I also made sure to convert my streets to a mask that I then applied down. So now I can select one block at a time. I also used this to redo my ward colors by selecting all the blocks within each ward.
My next tasks are creating the outer wall and docks and pinpointing landmarks, markets, inn/etc.

Lawmakers across the country are looking into steps to ensure another tragedy like the shooting at a Newtown, Conn. elementary school never happens again.
In Colorado, gun control and violence is up for its first debate of the year in the state legislature.
A Senate committee is scheduled Monday to consider the first gun-related bill of the legislative term.
The measure would permit school officials to allow employees to carry concealed weapons. Under current law, an individual with a valid permit may not carry a concealed handgun at any public K-12 school.
Groups opposed to the measure plan to hold a rally outside the Capitol to talk about gun violence and measures to prevent it.

I bought a used vacuum cleaner that normally would cost somewhere in the hundreds for less than one hundred dollars. I was not too excited because I had to buy a used vacuum yet I wanted a GOOD one and thought no matter what I would have to settle for one that was old, probably ugly and inferior which would break down soon after purchased. Well I chose Tech For Less after some comparison and I "have" to tell you Tech For Less didn't disappoint! In the description on their website it said the vacuum "has some dings and scratches" but when the it arrived it looked and was packaged like it was brand new. I could have actually given it as a gift and not been embarrassed in the least....I swear! We couldn't even find the "dings and scratches" as described. Unbelievable! I recommend Tech For Less and will order from them again...Oh! and the performance was braggable as well-lol- Jill D. (Macungie, PA)
We needed [to replace] the high end built-in microwave. Googled the actual model number of the old one. Took me to Tech-for-Less. Called them; guy was rather guy-style and to the point but more than nice enough. Four days later for $150 or so including delivery (no sales tax for Georgia - that's buys a pizza) I get a brand new version of this older model with a couple of itty-bitty dings that even my wife can live with. Five minutes to take out and trash the old one and push in/plug in the new. Works like a dream, and big bonus - I can trash the manual because I know enough about this model to write it. Boy am I pleased!- John W. (Atlanta, GA)

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Dude! What's up, dude? Dude, nothins goin' on over here, y'know? Just kickin back planning this party I'm having later. Whats that, dude? You came here to learn a little something about dudes, and stuff? My bad, dude. I thought you were just here for the party and stuff, y'know? So, hey, we still gonna have that party later, and stuff, cause my bro is bringin' a keg over and Jimbo's bringin' the ho's and its gonna be some sick shit. Theres gonna be more pussy here than there is in all of Paris. What's that, dude? I was supposed to be explaining the word dude for you? My bad brosef, I guess I got sidetracked again. Oh well, no use crying over spilled beer, I guess.
Well, this sounds like a good place to start, dude. The word dude is normally used to describe just about anyone who exists in the known universe, except for "The Man". However, this is the wrong usage for the word. According to the dictionary of dudes, a dude is a guy, a normal, a surfer, a skater, a beach bum, or somethin, who generally doesn't care about much other than some stuff, normally like music and chicks and the beach and stuff. Normally bro, dudes aren't over 30, but once in a while you can find a dude pushing 40. But dude, under no circumstances can a business man be a dude, cause its just undudely, y'know. Like this one time dude, I was having this sick party at my house, and my dad, he's this weird business man, y'know, all of a sudden he comes bargin' in and kills the tunes, and kicks everyone out of my party. It was such a sick party, dude. We had at least 5 kegs and a couple hundred chicks there, y'know. That reminds me bro, you coming to my party later, its gonna be better than the last one, cause we got this sick band my bro's in playing here, its gonna be fucking insane. Whats that, I got sidetracked again. Fuck.
Well, Dudes really came to be way back when around the time of that Shakespeare guy. In that one play he wrote, uh... the one with the guy and the girl, yea that one, that one guy, Romeo I think, was the original dude. Though he may not have had many of the traits of the current image of a dude, laid down the first quality of all dudes, the love of women over all else. Hell, he even went between a feud between their families for this chick, and not many dudes would even consider that. He also set down the second trait of all that is dudely, the love of a good party. Hey, you're still coming to my party tonight? Hold on my phone is ringing. Its Jimbo.
What's up, brosef? What do you mean you can't come to the party tonight? Why dude? you're still working on that stupid website? Come on man, you're starting to become an internet nerd, you've got to give it a rest. Whatever man, if you want to waste your time messing with that website than coming to what could be the greatest party of the year than go ahead. But don't expect me to talk to you ever again.
Alright, Jimbo is being a fucking moron. If he wants to miss what's going to be a great party, it's no skin off my back. Just let me make one more call to make sure there are still gonna be some chicks here tonight and I'll finish explaining this to you.
Over the years, several subtypes of dudes have evolved, y'know dude? Ranging from the stoner to skater, there are probably a couple hundred different types subtypes of dudes in existence today.
Well, one of the more common subtypes of dudes is the skater. Most commonly found wherever there is solid ground and a sick spot to shred. Most of the time, they can be found on a skateboard trying to nail a sick trick, or something. They are almost always wearing skate shoes, tight jeans, and some kind of tee shirt. The tricks they attempt are awesome to watch when they nail it, but its painful when they screw it up. Trust me on that one.
Beach Bum
The beach bum is another well known subtype of dudes, Known for their gnarly ability to surf, or skim, and superior tans. They are normally found on either the East or West coast around the beaches, but can exist anywhere there happens to a beach with water. Most commonly, they have long, wavy, salt filled hair, golden brown tans, and are wearing board shorts, or occasionally a wet suit. Almost all that they do involves impressing the ladys in some way.
The subtype of dudes that is most commonly associated with all dudes is the stoner. Sadly for us dudes, this is normally a false stereotype, y'know? But in any case, stoners are dudes that spend most of their time and money using drugs and chasing the highest high they can get, y'know. The most common drugs they use are weed, kittens, and cocaine. Though they normally stay in their natural habitats, in back alleys, they can often be found hiding in bathrooms, running from the cops or receiving surprise sex in jail.
Alright dude, I'm finished explaining dudes to you. Now, when are you gonna answer me whether or not you're coming to my party tonight? Its gonna be a sick party, dude. Instead of Jimbo, I got my friend Paco to bring over the chicks, and he's at the beach right now getting them to come over. I'll bet he's probably gotten a couple hundred chicks coming over by now. Well, are you coming or not? You're not? Come on dude, stay and have a good time. You sure you can't? Alright dude whatever, have fun missing whats gonna be the best party of the year. But don't come crying when you hear all the stories tomorrow.

Allergies Health Center
Allergies and Hives (Urticaria and Angioedema)
In this article
Hives, also known as urticaria, are an outbreak of swollen, pale red bumps, patches, or welts on the skin that appear suddenly -- either as a result of allergies, or for other reasons.
Hives usually cause itching, but may also burn or sting. They can appear anywhere on the body, including the face, lips, tongue, throat, or ears. Hives vary in size (from a pencil eraser to a dinner plate), and may join together to form larger areas known as plaques. They can last for hours, or up to several days before fading.
Angioedema is similar to hives, but the swelling occurs beneath the skin instead of on the surface. Angioedema is characterized by deep swelling around the eyes and lips and sometimes of the genitals, hands, and feet. It generally lasts longer than hives, but the swelling usually goes away in less than 24 hours.
Occasionally, severe, prolonged tissue swelling can be disfiguring. In rare cases, angioedema of the throat, tongue, or lungs can block the airways, causing difficulty breathing. This may become life-threatening.
What Causes Hives and Angioedema?
Hives and angioedema form when, in response to histamine, blood plasma leaks out of small blood vessels in the skin. Histamine is a chemical released from specialized cells along the skin's blood vessels.
Allergic reactions, chemicals in foods, insect stings, sunlight exposure, or medicines can all cause histamine release. Sometimes, it's impossible to find out exactly why hives have formed.
There are several different types of hives and angioedema, including:
- Acute urticaria and/or angioedema: Hives or swelling lasting less than six weeks. The most common causes are foods, medicines, latex, or infections. Insect bites and internal disease may also be responsible. The most common foods that cause hives are nuts, chocolate, fish, tomatoes, eggs, fresh berries, soy, wheat, and milk. Fresh foods cause hives more often than cooked foods. Certain food additives and preservatives may also be to blame. Drugs that can cause hives and angioedema include aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatorymedications (NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen), high blood pressure medications (ACE inhibitors), or painkillers such as codeine.
- Chronic urticaria and/or angioedema: Hives or swelling lasting more than six weeks. The cause of this type of hives is usually more difficult to identify than those causing acute urticaria and/or angioedema. The causes can be similar to those of acute urticaria but can also include autoimmunity, chronic infections, hormonal disorders, and malignancy.
- Physical urticaria: Hives caused by direct physical stimulation of the skin -- for example, cold, heat, sun exposure, vibration, pressure, sweating, and exercise. The hives usually occur right where the skin was stimulated and rarely appear anywhere else. Most of the hives appear within one hour after exposure.
- Dermatographism: Hives that form after firmly stroking or scratching the skin. These hives can also occur along with other forms of urticaria.
- Hereditary angioedema: This is painful swelling of tissue. It is passed on through families.

created 2005 · complexity basic · author Jonathan Orlev · version 5.7
For me, the most irritating thing when using the wonderful Vim is starting a second copy of Vim while a first one was already running.
For example: opening a file already open in the first Vim instance within a second instance of Vim gives an error message, because the swap file is already in use (not to mention that this might cause a loss of data).
So I added this to my vimrc. I am using gvim on Windows, but this will probably also work with gvim in other systems.
" If the v:servername ends with a number, then this is for sure a second " copy of Vim. if v:servername =~? '^.*[0-9][0-9]*$' echo "MyWarning: Another copy of gvim or Vim is probably loaded!" endif
For users running gvim on Unixes, an alternative is to always use
/usr/local/bin/gvim --remote-silent FILENAME
If gvim is already running, the file is opened there. Otherwise, a new gvim instance is started.
For interactive shell sessions, it would help to define a shorter alias, such as:
alias gvimrem='/usr/local/bin/gvim --remote-silent'
Here is a better version for the tip. This is more general, and therefore preferable:
" If the serverlist contains more than one item, than another instance of " Vim is loaded. if serverlist() =~? "\n." echo "MyWarning: Another copy of gvim or Vim is probably loaded !" endif
I agree, this serverlist() functions is working on Linux, where v:servername does not. Replace the original!
And you may also replace the operator '=~?' with '=~'
See the
:RemoteOpen command from remoteopen.vim which is part of latex-suite plugin.

An arrest has been made in connection with a rash of vehicle break-ins in church parking lots since October.
Greenville police have charged Kevin Brown with 17 of those vehicle break-ins where purses or other items were stolen.
Brown was first arrested Monday for three vehicle B&E's that occurred on Wimbledon Drive and on Old Fire Tower Road. They say further investigation led detectives to bring the church parking lot charges.
Police say they are continuing to investigate other cases and additional charges against Brown and others may occur.
Bond for Brown was increased an additional $250,000.

The customer: still utilities' ally to lose
Few consumer negatives around smart grid, which remains fuzzy
There's good news and, of course, its corollary, bad news, in recent consumer perception studies.
Consumer awareness of smart grid and smart meters remains low, those familiar with the terms have positive or neutral impressions and, when presented with smart grid benefits, two important ones are popular.
The Smart Grid Consumer Collaborative (SGCC) earlier this year released its recent findings, which we'll take a minute to consider.
If after nearly two years of what appeared to be very negative media around smart meters and, to some degree, federally funded stimulus projects relating to the grid, there remains little awareness of those two topics, perhaps those making the noise have had little impact. Unfortunately, that includes positive messages, presumably including utility-sponsored communication and education on the topic.
But there's some cause for optimism, in that respondents in the SGCC surveys said they favored smart grid benefits such as fewer outages of shorter duration and—get this—that smart grid would reduce greenhouse gases by easing the connection of renewable energy to the grid.
This appears to corroborate recent findings by the Brookings Institute, a center-left think tank, which has found a rebound in the number of Americans who accept that the global temperature is rising. The rebound reached the mid-way point between the high point of such beliefs, registered in late 2008, and the low point, in 2010.
The exploration of customer interest in and satisfaction with prepaid electricity accounts comes in the context of prepayment options in other industries, where it has become relatively common, particularly favored by younger Americans, ages 18-30.
Prepayment of electricity accounts holds obvious attractions for utilities in the form of cash flow, fewer collection actions and disconnections. For consumers, for whom it remains in the realm of an opt-in option, it serves as a crude form of energy use feedback and energy budgeting.
EcoAlign recently looked at prepay electricity markets in Texas and Arizona, currently the two largest such markets in the United States. In these two states, prepayment remains nascent, but the survey found about 7 percent of Texans use prepay, while that figure is 10 percent in Arizona.
Because prepaid accounts have built-in feedback loops—usage gets communicated back to the user via text message, email, the Web or an in-home display—they have the potential to cut overall energy use. Salt River Project's M-Power prepaid program in 2010 reported an average decrease of 12 percent among prepaid customers.
The top line findings of a recent EcoAlign survey are that customers associate prepay with better management and control of their account, with the potential to save money, though the potential negatives include uncertainty around pricing and the potential for fees or overpayment. The biggest concern, expressed by more than half the respondents, is service disconnection when a prepaid balance runs out. Half of respondents don't know whether prepay is more or less expensive than post-paid accounts. (Some industry discussion has focused on whether prepaid service should be less expensive, as a matter of financial fairness and to entice greater participation.)
Previous EcoAlign survey results and Salt River Project's prepay program were detailed in "Slice of Electricity Consumers Favor Prepayment" and "Survey: Electricity Prepayment Moving Mainstream."
Finally, Pike Research recently released the results of its "Energy & Environment Consumer Survey" around clean energy concepts. Better than half of respondents positively viewed solar energy, wind energy, hybrid vehicles, electric cars and natural gas cars. Less than half of respondents had favorable or very favorable views of "clean coal," nuclear power, biofuels, smart meters and smart grid, among other concepts.
Pike's findings on unfavorable impressions were topped by carbon offsets/credits, nuclear power and cap and trade. Only 9 percent had strongly unfavorable or somewhat unfavorable impressions of smart meters and fewer—6 percent—held unfavorable views of smart grid.
Yet those who said they were unfamiliar with smart grid comprised about 30 percent of respondents and those unfamiliar with smart meters comprised about 28 percent.
As one writer who has made much of the ludicrous demonization of smart meters, warning that it threatens to infect the general public, and castigated utilities for failing to educate customers about grid modernization, the results cited here make me something of a Chicken Little. On the other hand, these survey results are snapshots, not trends. It would be faulty logic to cite these results to justify continued lethargy in making the case for investments in grid modernization. People understand that investments in the grid could generate greater reliability and they're aware of environmental drivers, including global warming.
Complacency in the face of opportunity doesn't strike me as much of a strategy.

Imbalance of smart grid benefits
It's no surprise to me that the rollout of smart meters here in Northern California drew out so many of the tinfoil hat crowd. PG&E did a miserable job of communicating the potential benefits to consumers, then compounded the error by installing meters 1)before the communications infrastructure was in place, and 2) before there was a customer service application in place that would yield any tangible benefits to customers. The first issue cost them some of the "novelty" value of a new gadget that would have engaged people whereas the second just made people bored--or angry like me. The original web UI for interval data seemed to be designed to thwart any attempt to derive actionable information, and I say this as a person who has helped design those UIs since the mid-90s. You could not compare interval data from one day to the previous day, or the most recent month to the same month the previous year. You had to download individual days or months one at a time and paste them together in Excel to derive any useful information. The newer Opower version is supposed to be better, but I wouldn't know. I lost any access to interval data when I installed solar. I had to install my own shadow meter to get inteval data. I've build a few metering back-ends over the past dozen years. Handling energy in/energy out meter channels is not rocket science. There's really no excuse.
One would think that the public would generally be receptive to "smarter" anything. We all seem to like smart phones, smart cars, smart DVRs, even smart appliances. It's a pretty low bar to get our gadget-happy society enthusiastic about anything with LEDs or an LCD display. The problem was that many utilities were so eager to stick their snouts in the ARRA trough they didn't have time to sell the "vision." The perceived benefits therefore mostly accrued to them (e.g., remote shut-off and reduced meter-reading labor costs). Those are not insigificant benefits, and utilities are busily extractive even more value with analytics. However, the pendulum needs to swing back some in the other direction.
To fully derive benefits from smart meters, utilities will have to start by providing tools that actually allow people to derive value from the data. Being smart doesn't just mean being told to use less, it means getting the same utility out of your electrical service while spending less. You don't need a smart meter if the message is simply "use less and you will pay less." It's probably going to require some tariff changes, Many current tariffs (mine for example) provide no rewards for being smarter--unless that means moving to Motel 6 for the latter part of each bill cycle. Ultimately, we're never going to get it right as long as tariffs are being used as instruments of social policy and income redistribution. They should reflect the true costs of production--environmental externalities included--even if initially only for the "smart" energy consumer.

Utilities' use of pre-payment
Sounds like you've broken down the pre-pay group into two sub-groups: low-income/worried about service disconnects and young, "transient" college students/20-somethings hip to social media and concerned only about lowest-cost service.
Would that be a correct interpretation of your viewpoint expressed here?
Regards, Phil Carson
On second thought...
Thanks for your comments. Indeed, individual, neighborhood and community solutions to reliability and some degree of energy independence via distributed generation will likely crop up where conditions are ripe. That is, where egregious utility behavior coincides with the ability of these political units (that is, the individual, the neighborhood, the community) to organize, focus and solve the challenges.
Looking back on what I wrote here, and the survey results I quoted, these are top-level generalizations, which mask progress (and problems) in individual utility service territories. A number of investor-owned utilities have made headway in communicating their modernization approach, while municipal utilities and co-ops have that built-in community that often means they're "there" already. That said, modernization for munis and co-ops isn't a slam dunk.
Some co-ops, in fact, have extremely diverse constituencies, such as the Delta-Montrose Electric Association, which we've featured in these pages. Yet, even among the ranchers-small business-newcomer constituencies, the common theme is self-sufficiency, use of local resources, wise use of those resources and support for whatever investments and technology upgrades will bring those resources to bear on current energy supply and demand.
They may be a modest market, but I think the co-ops (and communities pursuing EE, RE and DG) are where some of the most interesting conversations are taking place.
Regards, Phil Carson
Shift the Focus to Community Energy
Great article as usual, Phil! I was drawn to the succinct conclusions of the Pike Research survey - to paraphrase: "consumers find distributed energy developments more relevant than utility improvements."
These new technologies hold tremendous potential, yet much of our debate remains centered on utilities, and is presented from the perspective of grid improvements, important as they are. The nature of distributed energy technologies is to take the solution directly to the energy consumer. Shifting the focus of our communication to the consumer perspective and to new distributed technologies, and the potetential impact on local communities should have tremendous payoffs in how our energy future is perceived in future consumer surveys.
Consumers who engage more directly in energy with these new technologies gain a far more relevant and immediate personal perspective. When enough have that perspective, the seeds of a Community Energy policy are sown. We are at the dawn of a new era where consumers, the buildings in which they live and work, and their communities become the new focus of energy discussions. Local communities will have far more relevance to consumers than the abstract grid and electric utility bills that are complex and confusing, that take minutes of their time each month, that cost 2-5% of their household budgets, and over which they have little control, other than to be made victims of unfair rate increases or inconvenient outages, or to some, dangerous radiactive smart meters - small wonder interest and awareness remains so low.

It's really bad that people begin to love actors only after they've played cool roles.
But it doesn't meen that all their next roles will be epic as well. And here is one of the examples

I just saw it,but I won't review it.
It's a bad sign in a movie when Amber Heard*** gives the best performance(jokes aside,she was decent).I know,you all expect to know about Nicolas Cage*****.He's not really bad as he is uninspired.But considering he has 3 other movies this year,and because of his situation he's most likely going to be uninspired in those as well,so I wouldn't be totally against a nomination for him.But he can't be alone.His uninspiration is nothing compared to William Fichtner's* utter lack of desire to be in this movie.Charlotte Ross's** screentime was short,but it was enough to consider her.Despite his annoying as hell(no pun intended)accent,Billy Burke**** wasn't bad.
I got that the movie was made as a grindhouse explotation movie on purpose,which is why I enjoyed the action,but it got tedious after a while.It felt like they just discovered slow motion,so they couldn't come up with something cooler.The effects were bad,and the plot dragged on too much.I mean,why couldn't it last 70 minutes?
I give this 4/10.
For your consideration:
-Supp. Actor*/Actress**...yes.
-Picture,Actress***,Supp. Actor again****,Couple(the 2 leads)...no.
-Actor*****,Director,Screenplay and Misuse Of 3D(I saw it on 2D,but the things going to the screen was annoying)...maybe.

Time to review this:
The good:
William Fitchner: I know that some people here didn't like his performance, but, for me, he was the highlight of the movie. The scene where he plows done the police barricade was hilarious.
Amber Heard: She gave a credible performance and she's hot as hell!
The sex-scene shoot-out: I know that there's a similar scene in Shoot 'Em Up, but it's well-used here. This is probably the non-William Fitchner highlight.
The bad:
Nicolas Cage: While he's better here than he was in Season Of The Witch, that's not saying much.
Billy Burke: While he's better here than he was in Red Riding Hood, that's not saying much.
The 3D: It's better than Pirates, but not as good as Trannies 3.
The ugly:
Nicolas Cage's hair: I couldn't think of anything really ugly about the movie, so I chose his hair. If we keep Worst Screen Couple, it should be "Nicolas Cage and EITHER his hellish hair-piece (Drive Angry) OR his trespassing toupee (Trespass) OR his wiccan wig (Season Of The Witch).
Not much to say to wrap it up. It's kind of fun to watch. Grade B-.

I think Cage is a shoe-in for Worst Actor this year. He's just begging for it. The only real contender that can top him is Adam Sandler.

It didn't take long for two women shown on camera allegedly stealing gas to come forward.
WITN showed the video Monday night of the gas drive-offs at the Bath General Store and at the White Post Store on Highway 92, both in Beaufort County.
Deputies say Taneisha Smith and Hope Blount have both been charged with misdemeanor larceny.
Store owners say they got a call at 10:00 a.m. saying the two had turned themselves in after seeing themselves on TV. Friends of the women also reportedly called to let them know they were caught on camera as well.
Previous Story
A pair of gas-stealing ladies struck again Monday in Beaufort county.
Deputies say last weekend they hit the Bath General Store, and now only a little over a week later they're accused of stealing gas from the White Post Store on Route 92. Owner Nancy Brickhouse said the employee at the time didn't realize what was happening until it was too late.
By the time she looked at them again, they had already pumped their gas, stopped and closed up their tanks, and got back in their cars and they just left," said Brickhouse.
The Beaufort County Sheriff's Department was unable to comment on their progress in the investigation. Penalties for stealing gas in North Carolina include fines and license suspensions.

Georgia is known as the Peach State and the Empire State of the South. Atlanta is the capital and the most populous city. Georgia is bordered on the south by Florida; on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and South Carolina; on the west by Alabama; and on the north by Tennessee and North Carolina. Each region has its own distinctive characteristics. For instance, the Ridge and Valley, which lies in the northwest corner of the state, includes limestone, sandstone, shale and other sedimentary rocks, which have yielded construction-grade limestone, barite, ocher and small amounts of coal. Georgia has a diverse mix of flora and fauna. The State has approximately 250 tree species and 58 protected plants and the majority of Georgia is primarily a humid subtropical climate. There are 63 parks in Georgia, 48 of which are state parks and 15 that are historic sites, and numerous state wildlife preserves.
