Topic: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Fact Sheet: Fibromyalgia and Irritable Bowel Syndrome149
Although fibromyalgia and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are two very different disorders, they often overlap, and they share a number of commonalities that bear closer scrutiny. Like irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia is a disorder that is diagnosed based on clinical (symptom based) criteria as opposed to laboratory and imaging studies.

IBS, Chronic Functional Abdominal Pain, Bloating and Gas, Constipation, Diarrhea
The term "functional" as used in medicine, generally is taken to mean symptoms not accompanied by demonstrable abnormalities on physical examination, blood tests, x-rays, biopsies, endoscopies or other procedures. An overview of common disorders that affect the colon.Topics: Constipation, difficult to pass stools, Diarrhea, loose stools, Gas, Bloating, Belching, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Lower Abdominal Pain, Pelvic Pain
Fact Sheet: Current Approach to the Diagnosis of Irritable Bowel Syndrome163
In the past two decades, medical opinion has changed regarding how to diagnose IBS. The older view emphasized that IBS should be regarded primarily as a "diagnosis of exclusion;" that is, diagnosed only after diagnostic testing excludes many disorders that could possibly cause the symptoms. Fortunately, physicians can now diagnose IBS in most patients by recognizing certain symptom details, performing a physical examination, and undertaking limited diagnostic testing. This simpler approach is grounded on recent knowledge...and it leads to a reliable diagnosis in most cases.

Fact Sheet: IBS in Men: A Different Disease?166
By: W. Grant Thompson, MD, FRCPC
The gastrointestinal tract is anatomically gender-neutral. While its furthest extremity is in proximity to the genital organs, surgeons, endoscopists, anatomists, and pathologists observe no differences between the intestines of males and females. It should follow that symptoms and other manifestations of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) should be the same in men as it is in women. This appears not to be so. This article concentrates on gender differences in the epidemiology, symptoms, physiology, psychosocial issues, and responses to treatment of IBS. Reviewed and updated 2009.Topics: Gender, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Fact Sheet: Hypnosis Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome171
The standard medical methods currently used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are of some help to the majority of people with the disorder. However, up to half of IBS sufferers are dissatisfied with the results of standard medical management, and many continue to have frequent symptoms after seeing doctors about them. In recent years, other alternatives have been sought to help these individuals. There has been growing interest in the possibility of using the mind to soothe the symptoms of IBS. This article includes a description of hypnosis for IBS and how to select a hypnotherapist.Topics: Brain-Gut, CAM, Complementary & Alternative Treatments, Hypnosis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Fact Sheet: Sleep and Irritable Bowel Syndrome178
Sleep complaints are quite common in patients with irritable bowel syndrome, as well as other gastrointestinal disorders including gastroesophageal reflux disease. Estimates of the incidence of sleep complaints in IBS patients range from approximately 30-70%. Lethargy and daytime fatigue, which are common side effects of sleep disturbances, seem to also be common complaints in IBS patients. In fact, there have been several studies which have attempted to relate gastrointestinal symptoms in IBS patients to sleep disturbances and vice versa.Topics: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Fact Sheet: Complementary and Alternative Treatments for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders181
By: Kirsten Tillisch, MD; Steven Tan, MD, MTOM, LAc
If conventional medical therapies prove unsuccessful or have unwanted side effects, many people choose to pursue complementary or alternative therapies (CAM). Complementary therapies are done in addition to traditional medical treatments, and alternative therapies are done instead of medical treatments. Many CAM modalities exist and they can be roughly grouped into several categories including herbal/dietary, somatic therapies (such as acupuncture or massage), mind-body therapies (such as hypnosis or meditation), and movement or breathing exercises (such as yoga or tai chi). In this review we will discuss each of these categories, focusing on those that have been studied most rigorously.Topics: CAM, Complementary & Alternative Treatments, Diet, Foods, Dyspepsia, pain in upper abdomen or chest, Hypnosis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Fact Sheet: Why Symptom Criteria for Functional Gut Disorders?182
By: W. Grant Thompson, MD, FRCPC
The "functional" gut disorders are syndromes (groups of symptoms) believed to arise from the gastrointestinal tract, but which lack a known cause. The purpose is to update the criteria upon which the diagnoses of functional gut disorders rest.Topics: Anal, Rectal Disorders, Bowel urgency, Dyspepsia, pain in upper abdomen or chest, Esophageal Disorders, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Lower Abdominal Pain, Pelvic Pain

Infinite loop detected in JError in Joomla 1.7
From Joomla! Documentation
This page is tagged because it NEEDS REVIEW. You can help the Joomla! Documentation Wiki by contributing to it.
More pages that need help similar to this one are here. NOTE-If you feel the need is satistified, please remove this notice.
When moving a locally developed Joomla 1.7 site to a server results in the error Infinite loop detected in JError in Joomla 1.7 there's something wrong with the configuration in configuration.php
First double check the following variables:
public $dbtype = 'mysqli'; // if your server doesn't support mysqli, try 'mysql' public $host = '[some host]'; public $user = '[some database user]'; public $password = '[some password]'; // wrong password could be the cause public $db = '[some database]'; public $dbprefix = '[someprefix_]'; public $log_path = '/logs'; public $tmp_path = '/tmp';
To get detailed information about the error, edit on the server /libraries/joomla/error/error.php
public static function throwError(&$exception) { static $thrown = false; // If thrown is hit again, we've come back to JError in the middle of throwing another JError, so die! if ($thrown) { // echo debug_print_backtrace(); jexit(JText::_('JLIB_ERROR_INFINITE_LOOP')); }
remove the //commenting tag and add the < pre > tags to get a readable output
// echo debug_print_backtrace();
change to:
print"<pre>"; echo debug_print_backtrace(); print"</pre>";
Now Joomla will show a more detailed error that might give you some clues of how to correct the settings in your configuration.php. Don't forget to switch off the detailed error reporting afterwards by commenting the echo debug_print_backtrace();.

An Elizabeth City man told our affiliate, WAVY, that he was shot three times by someone he may know in his own home.
Angelo Massiello told WAVY that just after midnight on April 22nd, he was asleep on the couch at a home in the 300 block of Rhonda Road when he was awakened by a man who put a gloved hand over Massiello's mouth.
The victim said when he felt something wrong with his stomach, he saw a wound. After another look, the victim said he'd been shot twice: one of bullets went in and out and the other is still in his body.
Massiello told WAVY his front door was still unlocked after his father took the dog out.
The intruder stole $60 from Massiello's wallet.
Though he wasn't able to see his face, Massiello told WAVY he believes he knows the suspect, but he could not reveal any other information.
This case is under investigation by the Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office.
If you have information that may lead deputies to the gunman, call the Crime Line at (252)-335-5555.

Long Island Modernism
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
Long Island has a rich history of modern architectural gems. Who knew? When I lived in NY, I would make a Sunday afternoon of it; hunting down a modernist classic tucked away in a unsuspecting neighborhood. A few historic structures remain, but sadly many have been torn down, or fundamentally altered.
In her new book Long Island Modernism: 1930–1980, author Caroline Rob Zaleski has thoughtfully explored and documented the modern architecture of this region. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, the author explains the source of her intrigue: 'Numerous architecture stars used parts of Long Island as a sort of laboratory. Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer and Mies van der Rohe all built there, and even contemplated a plan to re-establish their Bauhaus school on Long Island after relocating to the U.S. from Nazi Germany. Many other notable homes and buildings conceived for corporate and public use were conceived by the likes of Frank Lloyd Wright, Richard Neutra, Richard Meier and I.M. Pei, among many others.

The Bernat Temperature Scarf Crochet-Along officially started February 1st, 2013, but I had gone back and recorded/crocheted the temperatures for all of January.
January started out chilly, but not horrible. A lot of light blue to begin with. Then we had a very mild week, represented by the two shades of green. At that point I wondered if I would ever get to use my lowest temp colour, sparkly purple, and despite my fiery hatred for winter, I found myself wishing for colder temperatures.
I ate my words the following week when we had a terrible cold snap. It was the coldest it had been all winter, and even though I finally got the colours on the scarf, I worried if I would actually have to ADD another colour. And that sent me into a panic because I specifically picked sparkly colours for the lowest and the highest temperatures, so then my whole scarf would be ruined! RUINED!
But, since this is Canada, and only here can it go from -28C wind chills to 13C within one week. We had everything from snow squalls, high winds, thunderstorms, rain, and something called "ice fog" in the last week of January. I was outside on my patio 3 times one evening in only a tank top and I wasn't cold! So I was able to introduce a new colour to the scarf – the yellow!
The dark green had been the highest temperatures so far, and this time there was even a gradual change in colour. Right from light blue (0 – -5C) up to yellow (13C – 19C).
I'm still really pleased with the scarf. I got all the ends weaved in so far (Note to self: weave in ends as you go along, there is nothing worse than weaving in a billion ends at once) and the edge is looking pretty. I still may or may not go with a border. Probably not, because let's face it, after a year of working on one project, I'm not going to want to do ANYTHING else to it. Done will be done.
There's still time to join in! The crochet-along only just begun, you can catch up! Find the official information here and follow along.
If you want to know the yarn/stitches/temperatures I'm using, check out my first post here.

- Barristan Selmy: "Men who fight for gold have neither honor nor loyalty, they cannot be trusted."
- Jorah Mormont: "They can be trusted to kill you, if they're well-paid."
- — Barristan Selmy and Jorah Mormont discuss mercenaries.[src]
A mercenary is an independent soldier who has no official allegiance to any lord or country, but who instead hires out his services for payment. They are most commonly known by the term "Sellsword", as they sell their services with a sword.
The quality and reputation of sellswords ranges across a very wide spectrum: they are often professional soldiers, moving from one temporary contract to the next, though particularly poor-quality sellswords might just be a gang of untrained thugs. However, even sellswords who receive no "formal" training make a living by engaging in combat on a regular basis. Thus even a mercenary that is initially low-born and without expensive training will gain a great amount of combat experience ("hands on" training) throughout his career. Provided that he survives that long, a veteran sellsword may become a highly skilled fighter. A sellsword that has significantly distinguished himself in combat may even be rewarded by being dubbed a knight, though this is uncommon.
Songs of chivalry and romance often portray war as a glamorous series of duels between knights in shining armor, fighting for love, honor, and homeland. In gritty and dirty reality, a large extent of the day to day combat in real wars in both Westeros and Essos is fought by hired sellswords, fighting only for money.
Types of Mercenaries
- "I'm a sellsword, I sell my sword. I don't lend it out to friends as a favor."
- ―Bronn
While mercenaries are often referred to as "Sellswords" as a catch-all term, this is strictly speaking only one subdivision of mercenary:
Sellswords are professional mercenary soldiers. They usually fight on foot, though they can actually also own horses and fight as mounted warriors.
Notable Sellswords:
- Bronn - a weathered, veteran sellsword of no particular fame but above-average skill, who is hired on by Tyrion Lannister as his bodyguard/enforcer. Bronn first earned his place at Tyrion's side by defeating Ser Vardis Egen, a knight and the captain of the guards at The Eyrie, in a trial by combat, thus demonstrating his impressive skills as an experienced sellsword. Bronn later fought so well in the Battle of the Blackwater that he received the reward many sellswords hope for, a knighthood.
- Daario Naharis - a sellsword from the Free City of Tyrosh, operating in Slaver's Bay.
Although mounted sellswords are sometimes called "freeriders", strictly speaking they are not the same thing. The difference is that true freeriders do not fight for payment, receiving only a share of the food supplies to sustain them and the promise of a share of the plunder (they are "riders" that fight for "free").Freeriders are usually a motley mix of two drastically different sources. Some freeriders are hedge knights, low-ranking freelance knights unattached to any noble House, and they are fighting for free because they hope that if they distinguish themselves in combat, they will be formally taken into a lord's service as a sworn sword. The other kind of freeriders are truly poor hangers-on, usually farm-boys whose homes were burnt out during the military campaign and who joined up with the army because they have nowhere else to go, and are only a step above camp followers. Either way, freeriders are rarely used in direct combat between armies, instead more often serving as scouts and foragers. They can see combat, but this usually takes the form of raids, burning down enemy villages as their own homes were once burned down.
Notable Freeriders:
- Lothor Brune - a freerider in the service of Lord Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish of the Vale of Arryn.
Sellsails are mercenary sailors who engage in naval battles. Sellsails are the captain and crew of a boat, whose service is the actual operation of their vessel. Of course, the crews of many sellsword ships are also proficient in combat during boarding operations and coastal raids. Sellsails are quite frequently pirates, who have decided to make quick money by hiring out the services of their ships during a current conflict, and in return charging far more than they'd normally make in their usual raiding activities. During peacetime, they usually go right back to being regular pirates.
Notable Sellsails:
- Salladhor Saan - a flashy pirate-lord from Lys who commands a fleet of thirty ships, hired by Stannis Baratheon to supplement his own naval forces in the War of the Five Kings.
Mercenary companies
While many sellswords function independently of any larger organization, there are also many sellsword companies which hire out their services as a unit. Again, the quality of these sellsword companies varies across a wide spectrum. Some can be little more than poorly trained gangs of a few dozen men who have combined their strength. Major lords who want to supplement their armies with sellswords will prefer to hire a pre-assembled collection of sellswords rather than go through the trouble of hiring them one by one. The best sellsword companies are essentially small private armies, highly trained and serving under their own officers.While sellsword companies are encountered in Westeros, they are much more common in the city-states of Essos, particularly in the Free Cities and Slaver's Bay. The Seven Kingdoms are predominantly a feudal society, in which each lord raises soldiers from his own lands. In contrast, the Free Cities are an urban society, and thus better fitted to paying coin to mercenaries. Thus, the Free Cities and Slaver's Bay have a much more developed system and history of fielding professional mercenaries organized into independent companies for hire.
Notable Mercenary Companies:
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels there are actually several more mercenary companies than have been revealed in the TV series so far, several of which have been condensed in adaptation by either changing them to groups of regular soldiers or by combining different sellsword companies into a single group; this was probably done to avoid confusing the TV audience with too many new names, i.e. a sellsword company hired by the Lannisters in the books is changed to simply a group of Lannister soldiers in the TV series. The allegiances of sellsword companies can at times be confusing even within the narrative of the books: mercenaries are a fickle bunch who easily change allegiances multiple times, depending on where the most gold is.
In the books, Yunkai actually hired two different sellsword companies to defend itself against Daenerys Targaryen, the Second Sons and the Stormcrows, but these were combined in the TV series, so all of the major mercenary captains are from a single company known as the Second Sons. In the books, the Second Sons are led by Mero (as in the TV series), while the Stormcrows are led by Prendahl na Ghezn, Sallor the Bald, and Daario Naharis. Daario killed Prendahl and Sallor to seize leadership of the Stormcrows, and then switched their loyalty to Daenerys. Meanwhile, Daenerys tricked Mero by giving him the large wagon full of wine he requested - for which he would consider, but not promise, to change sides. Daenerys then sent her forces to ambush the Second Sons that same night while Mero and his men were fall-over drunk on the wine she had gifted them, and most surrendered without a fight. Mero fled during the night and was later killed in a separate incident. The remaining Second Sons voted to have one of their other lieutenants, Brown Ben Plumm, serve as their new captain, and switched allegiances to Daenerys. In the TV series, Mero asked for the wagon of wine but curiously, there was no following ambush during the night as in the novel.
In the books, the Second Sons and Stormcrows consist of about 500 men each, for a total of one thousand mercenaries. The TV series not only combined the two mercenary companies, but doubled the total number of mercenaries from one thousand to two thousand.
The Brave Companions
During the third book, Jaime Lannister and Brienne of Tarth are captured by the infamous sellsword company known as the Brave Companions - and ironic name, as they aren't particularly brave and are most famous for horrifically torturing unarmed prisoners. They become a major set of antagonists in the storyline throughout the third and fourth novels. Their penchant for maiming their captives by amputating their arms and/or feet has led to them being dismissively nicknamed "the Footmen". The Brave Companions are the terror of two continents, infamous across Essos and Westeros as the most ill-reputed, vicious, and cruel sellsword company in existence. They are not well-known for being particularly skilled at arms, but rather are infamous for the atrocities they are willing to commit against the enemy's civilian population. They are normally active in Essos, particularly the Free Cities, but when the War of the Five Kings first broke out Tywin Lannister hired them and brought them to the Riverlands of Westeros, to burn out and terrorize the defenseless villages of the smallfolk loyal to his enemies. Even Gregor Clegane's men, including vicious torturers such as the Tickler, are considered to be not quite as despicable as the Brave Companions.
Moreover, the Brave Companions are composed of a veritable rogue's gallery of the absolute lowliest dregs of humanity, with an extremely diverse membership composed of the worst criminals from across the known world: cut throats, murderers, rustlers, rapers, ass-kickers, Qohorik butchers, Ibbenese thieves, Dothraki thugs, Dornish vipers, Braavosi buggerers, a child-molesting Westerosi priest, and a psychotic jester. Their diverse and indeed outlandish appearance has led to them also being nicknamed the "Bloody Mummers" (mummers are a kind of wandering troupe of actors), though they think this nickname is insulting. Their leader is Vargo Hoat, a cruel man from Qohor who has a bad speech impediment that leaves him lisping and slobbering. Hoat enjoys cutting the hands and feet off of his captives with little or no provocation, particularly anyone who points out his speech impediment - which, given that his lisp is so bad that it truly makes his speech barely intelligible at times, means that Hoat and the Brave Companions leave piles of severed hands and feet in their wake.
In the second book, the Brave Companions decide to betray the Lannister forces holding Harrenhal when they discover that the eastern half of the Stark army commanded by Roose Bolton is advancing on the castle, and they'd rather be on the winning side. Hoat is rewarded for the betrayal by being named the (temporary) Lord of Harrenhal, which remains garrisoned by Roose Bolton and his army. After the Battle of the Blackwater, however, it starts to become clear that the Lannisters have gained the upper hand in the war, and Hoat fears - correctly - that Roose Bolton himself wants to end up on the winning side, and will betray Robb Stark to the Lannisters. If Bolton switched his allegiance to the Lannisters, he would hand over Hoat and the Brave Companions to Tywin so he could punish them for their betrayal. Thus when Hoat's men capture Jaime Lannister at the beginning of the third book, he has his men cut off Jaime's sword-hand, in the hope that this will drive a wedge between Jaime's father Tywin and Roose, as Tywin would presumably blame Bolton for the actions of the sellswords under his command. Unfortunately for Hoat, Roose decides to let Jaime continue on to King's Landing if in exchange he will tell his father the truth, that Roose was not responsible for his maiming at the hands of the Brave Companions. The result of maiming Jaime is only that Tywin is even angrier at the Brave Companions than he was before, and Bolton has even less reason to protect them from Tywin's wrath.
The TV series heavily condensed the entire subplot at Harrenhal, particularly how Arya Stark (with the help of Jaqen H'ghar) aided the capture of the castle by freeing all of the Northern prisoners held there, which spurred the Brave Companions to turn on their Lannister allies sooner than anticipated. Moreover, possibly because it would have involved introducing a very diverse set of characters (meaning too much time would need to be spent designing each of their different cultures), the Brave Companions were cut out of the TV series. The character of "Vargo Hoat" was functionally included in the TV series, but was changed to simply be a House Bolton soldier named Locke - keeping the general idea from the books that Vargo Hoat was in service to Roose Bolton at the time Jaime encountered him. Loosely, the Brave Companions were condensed down from being a mercenary company to simply being a particularly vicious group of Bolton soldiers led by Locke.
Locke's motivation for cutting off Jaime's sword-hand in the TV series was loosely the same: partially it was just because he's a vicious monster who wanted to intimidate Jaime, while partially it was because maiming him would prove that he would never ransom Jaime to Tywin. As it turns out, of course, his commander Roose Bolton realizes that Tywin is winning the war at this point and will eventually hunt down those responsible for maiming his son, so he agrees to let Jaime go to King's Landing if he promises to assure Tywin that Roose himself was not responsible for the loss of his sword-hand.
In the books, Qyburn the ex-maester was a member of the Brave Companions, though he only joined the group as a means to survive, and instead of being a fighter or torturer simply served as the group's primary healer. As in the TV series, he is tasked with treating the infected stump of Jaime's right arm; he remarks that staying with Hoat and the Brave Companions means he has gained much experience in treating the amputated limbs of their victims. In a minor change, because the Brave Companions do not exist in the TV series, Qyburn was simply a prisoner encountered at Harrenhal by the Northern army when they took the castle, who then entered into the service of Roose Bolton. In the books, Robb Stark did not personally got to Harrenhal so Qyburn never encountered him, while in the TV series Robb accompanied Roose to capture Harrenhal. The TV series condensed this so that the Lannisters simply abandoned Harrenhal rather than let Robb bleed their forces more, however Robb left Harrenhal immediately afterwards to attend his grandfather Hoster Tully's funeral. Either way, in the books Qyburn leaves the Brave Companions when Roose sends him to accompany Jaime on his way to King's Landing, to continue to care for his injury.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas running back Knile Davis says he will enter the NFL draft and skip his senior year with the Razorbacks.
Davis announced his decision Tuesday. He led all Southeastern Conference running backs in rushing in 2010 with 1,322 yards. He averaged 147 yards rushing over his final seven games that season, capping off the breakout performance with a 139-yard rushing effort in the Sugar Bowl against Ohio State.
However, he missed the 2011 season to recover from a broken left ankle. Davis returned this past season and said he was 100 percent healthy, though he gained only 377 yards rushing — averaging 3.7 yards per carry.

A recently published study out of the University of Michigan examined Generation X's views on climate change and found them to be largely unconcerned with the issue.
The Longitudinal Study of American Youth (LSAY) releases a quarterly research report and has followed the same 4,000 people for 25 years. Originally, in 1987, 5,900 students were selected from a national sample of 7th and 10th graders in 50 U.S. public school systems.
Generation X now comprises 32-52 year olds who are the most well-educated and scientifically savvy generation in U.S. history. However, the LSAY shows dwindling interest in climate change as it is a complex and long-term issue. The study compared responses from 2009 and 2011 and found that a scant two percent of those aged 37 to 40 follow climate change "very closely". This was a 50 percent drop from 2009 results. Over half said they follow climate change "not closely." More than 40 percent say they have only a "moderate concern" about global warming.
The most disturbing part of the report points to a disregard for future generations. Most do not see climate change as an immediate problem that requires their attention to address. A large percentage, 66 percent, said they aren't sure that global warming is happening. About 10 percent even outright deny global warming is actually happening.
Why is Generation X disengaged, disinterested, or even openly disbelieving regarding climate change? The answer is as multifaceted as global warming itself. Disinterest in climate change is surely due in part to a massive and unprecedented disinformation campaign by oil and gas interests and conservative media outlets spanning more than a decade, even as the overwhelming scientific record points squarely to climate change. Some experts theorize issue fatigue may be the cause when a problem is long-standing. Others point to the complexity in understanding the underlying causes and potential solutions for climate change as a barrier to engagement with the issue. Still another potential answer is the distraction by other timely public policy issues. For example, interest in the economy experienced an upsurge following the Great Recession that began in 2008 to the detriment of environmental issues.
Whatever the reason, there is something every person in all generations can do to help save our planet. One easy and fast way to protect the environment is to switch your Internet browser to www.envirosearch.org. You'll be contributing to renewable energy, reforestation, and energy efficiency projects through you regular, daily Internet search activities. Another simple step is to use an emissions calculator to determine your personal contribution to greenhouse gas emissions. Then reduce your carbon footprint, plant a tree, or offset your carbon emissions.

SME loan officers at a training session in Afghanistan in December 2010, working to prepare a loan request for a complex case study so that they can improve their understanding of the SME methodology and the loan appraisal process.Delivering Core Skills Training to Improve Service
2010's central goal for AKAM's Training Academy was to complete the delivery of a core skills training programme for all field staff, and bring skills up to a standard level of competency across AKAM's entities worldwide. This programme includes the course on Development Ethics, which is the introduction to AKAM's mission and values, the Loan Officer course, which teaches core lending skills for all staff working in client services, and the Branch Manager course for all branch managers and deputies, designed to improve management and planning skills.
At the end of 2010, 11 of 13 countries had completed 2,500 instances of core skills training covering over 90 percent of their staff. These instances cover 2,000 staff inducted in Development Ethics, 350 loan officers and branch managers trained in Loan Officer Core Lending Skills, and 150 line employees who have become trainers certified with facilitation skills to allow them to deliver courses to staff in local languages and in local regions to reduce cost per learner to the institution.
Afghanistan and Pakistan, the largest entities, experienced severe challenges battling natural disasters and political instability resulting in a lag of training activity in both countries. By the end of 2010, Afghanistan was able to train a significant number of their staff and they will complete core skills training by end of 2011. Pakistan will begin core skills training in 2011.
Developing SME departments in every entity is a critical global strategy in AKAM's goal to support local economic development and job creation. To this end, the course for SME loan officers was developed and piloted in Afghanistan, where FMFB-A has been giving out SME loans since 2005. In 2011 four more countries will deploy SME lending, starting with loan officers armed with advanced credit skills and rigorous policy and process training to ensure systematic risk reduction and performance of this new product.
AKAM continues to develop, in-house, its core skills curriculum. At the introductory levels, having customised training for specific job positions tailored to the institution's operating models has been critical to filling the gap in capacity created by rapid growth and change and achieving job competency for new staff.
Impact of Evaluation on the Learning Approach
In 2010 the evaluation process was formalised and, in addition to the measurement of training, key indicators were identified and impact assessment programmes to evaluate the effectiveness of the programme were implemented. A series of focus groups, conducted to assess the post training impact and workplace transfer of skills, confirmed that customer service had improved significantly. Staff are more engaged with the mission and values of the institution and are more sensitive to clients' challenges and needs. Productivity and team work have reduced conflicts and time wasted in the lending process. Loan officers are able to explain the benefits of deposit mobilisation to clients.
Branch managers have seen an increased level of skill in business and risk analysis and a more diligent attitude in the workplace. Surveys show that 75 percent of learners can identify specific learned skills they have applied in the workplace and overall satisfaction with the quality of training materials and trainers is over 95 percent; confirming that the learner-centric approach is working and has sparked a desire for self-improvement and positive contribution to the performance of the institution. In addition to improvements in performance, training has impacted the quality of life of staff through promotions due to enhanced skills and leadership ability gained in the training of trainers programme.
Strategically, the Training Academy seeks to impact the quality of human capital, which is AKAM's most critical resource. In 2010, several initiatives were advanced to begin the process of building stronger human resources for the future. The first was to enhance the quality of new staff being recruited into operations. A course on recruitment was developed and delivered to every human resources manager in the field. This innovative course improves the recruitment process and will be delivered to line managers in 2011 to improve the quality of new candidates. The second initiative was to build the capacity of local training departments. Capacity building workshops were conducted on training needs analysis, local training plans and coaching. Local training departments need to be strengthened so that they can assist in the execution of the institutions' business plans.
Loan officers in West Africa play the cash flow game to understand and track cash in the client�s business. It is critical for the loan officers to have on the job training as well as to understand the mission and ethical precepts of the institution.A Curriculum that Targets Increased Productivity
Core skills' training only addresses the current gap in skills. Going forward, the Training Academy is moving to lay a more rigorous foundation for curriculum development and trainer education. A process of consultation has begun with AKDN financial services institutions and educational institutions that have expertise in developing professional education programmes. AKDN institutions will be leveraged to provide management and banking education through access to their training programmes at the senior level and through shared curriculum content, which can be customised for field based microfinance staff so that greater access can be provided at a reasonable cost.
To engage in this process the Training Academy has begun to identify career path training for each key position. A global needs analysis, slated for mid-2011, will determine the training needs of each institution based on the business plan. This will be followed by the development of competency matrices which define skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviour for each position and level of performance.
This competency framework will then be used to define the training plan for 2011-2013 and the resources required to help staff perform to the level that is needed to deliver on the business plan. In addition, each institution has set ambitious goals for enhancing productivity. The competency-based curriculum deliberately forms required job competency in the staff and then improves competency over several years to contribute to greater performance and enhanced productivity. This process will be completed by end of 2011 and will map out the long term strategy of AKAM's training programme.
AKAM's Training Academy is critical to the ability of the institution to achieve its goals. It contributes to the integrity and performance of the institution today and into the future as it develops the "Right People for the Job": inspired, skilled and motivated to improve the lives of the people AKAM and its entities serve.

Reviews for Cranberry Pork Tenderloin
"Made this for lunch today. Baked it in the oven instead of crock pot. About 2 hrs @ 350. Absolutely the best!"
"OM Gosh. This is this best Pork Tenderloin I've cooked. My husband loves it."
"Too much cloves!"
"Recipe could probably accommodate a larger tenderloin simply by cutting it to fit the slow cooker. There was plenty of sauce left over (about 2 cups) which we used up on ham sandwiches. The family enjoyed it so much they suggested replacing the turkey on Thanksgiving with this entrée. It compliments an acorn squash side dish very well."
"I love pork tenderloin but my husband does not as a general rule. I made this and the only change I made was to use pineapple juice intead of orange juice. This was so tender and just delicious. Husband agreed this was the best pork tenderloin that he ever had. Glad to finally have a recipe that he will enjoy too. Yes, definitely a keeper."

The RC Cam is a small "flowerpot" that can be used as a vehicle in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Although the vehicle bears "RC" in its name, it is not a remote-controlled vehicle.
The RC Cam is a crudely made flowerpot that nevertheless behaves similarly to a normal vehicle. It features functional headlights and taillights that light up at night, and it's capable of generating skid marks (despite having no wheels). Nevertheless, the RC Cam still lacks an engine noise, damageable parts, and a collision file (thus being partially unable to collide with other vehicles). When the player character enters the vehicle, he opens an invisible "door" and sits on it. The vehicle has capacity for two people.
Performance of the RC Cam can be described as mixed, due to its very compact construction. The flowerpot is highly nimble due to its very short wheelbase and light weight, and is moderately good in speed. However, its short wheelbase also increases the possibility of the vehicle spinning out, and the low ground clearance of the RC Cam makes it more difficult to control on bumps.
It is unknown why the RC Cam is included in GTA San Andreas, if it serves a certain function in-game (the "cam" in the model name may suggest that it is used as a camera dummy for the third-person view, or it maybe what the player actually drives in first person view), or if it was used during development for debugging/testing purposes. The design and name suggests maybe it was meant to be used for spying purposes in a beta mission. It is never used in any missions, nor can it be seen anywhere. The only means of obtaining the vehicle is via a trainer or modification.

Sage Men's Soccer wins ECAC Upstate Championship
Elmira, NY---The Sage Colleges men's soccer team won the 2012 Eastern College Athletic Conference Upstate Men's Soccer Division III Tournament on Sunday afternoon with a 1-0 win over No. 2 seeded Elmira College. Sage finishes the 2012 season with a school-record for victories after Kyle Clancy's Gators go 14-5-1. Elmira finishes the season as the ECAC Upstate runner-up with 13-7 mark.
Tournament Held at Elmira College
November 10
#1 Sage def. # 4 Cazenovia, 2-0
#2 Elmira def. #4 SUNY-Canton, 3-1
November 11
#1 Sage def. # 2 Elmira, Championship Game, 1-0
As he did so many times this fall, junior forward Scott Jarosz (Brunswick, ME/Brunswick) connected on the team's game-winning goal as he team up shortly into the second half. Jarosz's tally came at 49:24 and broke a 0-0 tie. The goal would be the lone tally of the match and proved to be all the Gators would need to finish their record-breaking season with the first ECAC Championship for a Sage men's varsity program.
He caps his personal-best campaign as he rewrote almost every Sage offensive record in 2012. He netted 22 goals and 44 points this fall, while tallying five game-winning goals. Overall on his career, he has elevated his resume to include 31 goals and 63 career points, while recently also garnering honors as a 2012 Skyline Conference All-Star First Team honoree and a 2012 Capital One CoSIDA Men's Soccer Academic All-District Team member. He was cited as the Most Outstanding Player of the Tournament.
In goal for the Gators, freshman TJ Zehner (Beacon, NY/Beacon) had four saves en route to his seventh shutout of the season. He went 12-4-1 in goal for Sage in his first collegiate season. He led the program with his 0.78 GAA and an .851 saves percentage in 18 games played.
Sunday's contest was a re-match of a regular-season match-up on October 7 at Elmira. In that game, Sage came from behind to record a 2-1 win as Jarosz netted both goals for the Gators in the action.
For the tournament Jarosz tallied all three of the team's goals, while Zehner was perfect with two shutouts wins for Sage.
For head coach Kyle Clancy, the 2012 tournament championship title is a first for the program, which appeared in the ECAC's a year ago, but did not advance to the finals. The 2012 Gators have set new high-water marks for most wins in a season (14), while also making the squad's third straight post-season appearance as well. Prior to the tournament, the Gators were ranked No. 36 in scoring offense with a 2.59 goals per game average, while ranking 45th with their 44 goals this fall. In addition, the team is 51st in total points with 123, while ranking 56th in win percentage (.735). They finish the season with an impressive 47 goals, 31 assists and 125 points, while limiting the opposition to 17 goals and blanking their opponents in nine of 20 contests in 2012.

By now a portable speed camera is something somewhat familiar in our area.
It's this type of camera a Maryland man says is inaccurate -- and he can prove it.
Will Foreman knew something was wrong -- either his employees all had lead feet, or the speed cameras that racked up 60 tickets for his company were flawed.
Foreman did an investigation of his own.
He took the pictures snapped by the portable speed cameras -- two of them taken 3.3 seconds apart.
With simple high school math and a few measurements, Foreman proved in court this truck wasn't going 76 mph.
Foreman claims the way the cameras are mounted makes them susceptible to factors like strong winds.
He won his speeding ticket cases in court with his math.
When he saw our story, that these cameras were being placed around Northeast Ohio, he contacted us.
We talked to the mayor of Newburgh Heights, Trevor Elkins, who just put these cameras in place.
He says he never doubted the accuracy of Optotraffic's cameras, and his officers road test the cameras on a regular basis.
Optotraffic has issued the following statement:
The "theory" regarding inaccurate speed camera readings in this report is simply false and has been thoroughly rejected by Maryland courts. The fact is laser sensors operating at 10,000 measurements per second calculate the speed of the vehicle. If the sensors detect a violation, 2 photos are taken as the vehicle continues moving down the road for the sole purpose of identifying the vehicle so that police can issue a notice of liability. Newburgh Heights Mayor Trevor Elkins sums it up best, "Optotraffic has been extremely professional in every facet of this process. I have no fear regarding the accuracy of the portable cameras utilized by the Village."

FORT WAYNE (www.incnow.tv) - Jeremy Baltz doubled home the winning run in the bottom of the eleventh inning Sunday to push the TinCaps to a 3-2 win over the Clinton Lumberkings in the opener of a three game series.
RBI hits by MaxxTissebaum and Gabriel Quintana in the sixth inning erased a brief 1-0 Clinton lead, but the Lumberkings came back to even the game up in the seventh.
Baltz's game winning RBI was his team leading 18th run batted in of the season and teammates celebrated by both pelting him with a shaving cream pie and emptying a water cooler over him during a postgame interview.
The series continues Monday night.

The rule of law is dead in the District of Columbia.
Of course, this is nothing new, given that the federal government calls that not-quite-state home, but this time around I am referring to the laws specifically governing that postage stamp of a municipality.

Two young children were found brutally stabbed at a mobile home late Wednesday night.
Their grandmother frantically called 911 after stumbling upon the nightmarish scene inside the mobile home: a 1-year-old and 3-year-old with multiple stab wounds, the man left to care for them--his throat slit.
Scarlett Gallagher, the youngest victim, was already dead when deputies arrived at the home on Woodmen, three miles east of Powers in the Falcon area. Her brother, Ryan Willhite, survived long enough to be transported to the hospital, where he later died. Ryan was just days away from his fourth birthday.
Deputies found 22-year-old Ethan Courrau in the trailer, dying from an apparent self-inflicted wound.
"He had slit his own throat," a deputy can be heard saying on dispatch tapes obtained by 11 News. Courrau died at the hospital.
According to a family friend, Courrau was the boyfriend of the children's mother, and had been left to care for both kids while she and the grandmother went grocery shopping. The savage attack occurred while mother and grandmother were gone.
The family friend says the mother was four months pregnant with suspect's child.
The El Paso County Sheriff's Office has not confirmed the relationship between Courrau and the children's mother. They did say he is not the father of either child, but associated with the family.
Shell-shocked family and friends arrived at the home throughout the day Thursday, leaving stuffed animals and flowers outside in a makeshift memorial for the children. Though most were too grief-stricken to talk, relatives did say they'll never forget Scarlett's beautiful smile, and recall Ryan fondly as a very typical little boy.
A memorial fund has been set up at the ENT Federal Credit Union to help the family out. It's called Memorial Account for Scarlett and Ryan.
The investigation remains in the early stages. Further updates are anticipated from the El Paso County Sheriff's Office in the coming days.

A Cherry Valley man is dead after being hit by a car while riding his bike.
Forty-year-old Todd Slocum was riding in the 500 block of South Perryville Road Sunday night when he was struck by vehicle driven by 33-year-old Melissa Levellen.
Levellen told police she was reaching for her cell phone when her car drifted off the road. Slocum was taken to St. Anthony Medical Center where he died shortly after midnight.
Levellen was arrested and charged with aggravated dui. Those charges could be upgraded to reckless homicide after police complete their investigation.
