Each year, approximately 12 million Americans visit a physician to be examined for Staphylococcus aureus or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) infections (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2008). MRSA infections total approximately two million annually, resulting in approximately 90,000 deaths and $4.5 billion in health care costs annually. In 2003 MRSA infections were the fifth-leading cause of death in acute care hospitals (Becton, Dickinson & Co., 2008).
MRSA is an evolving pathogen that has morphed into several potentially infectious strains (Shukla, 2006). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) define community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) as a strain of MRSA acquired by those who have not been hospitalized or undergone a medical procedure within the past year. CA-MRSA has unique microbiologic and genetic properties relative to health care-acquired MRSA (HA-MRSA), which allow the bacteria to spread more easily therefore causing more skin infections (CDC, 2005). Seventy percent of all MRSA infections are caused by five major strains of MRSA. The most predominant strain in the U. S. is USA 300 (Sampathkumar, 2007). Ninety-seven percent of infections reported from 11 different hospitals were of the USA 300 clone (Herman, Kee, Moores, & Ross, 2008). MRSA is able to survive on a range of surfaces for extended periods of time and can infect hosts even with limited exposure (Salgado, Farr, & Calfee, 2003; Shukla, 2006).
MRSA has recently been found to be capable of penetrating intact skin, allowing the bacteria to infect deeper layers of tissue (Shukla, 2006) . MRSA colonization can persist for months and sometimes years, with a half-life of 40 months (Salgado et al, 2003). Previous studies have indicated that MRSA is commonly transferred through skin-to-skin contact with an infected person, but little is known about a person's likelihood of becoming infected through contact with MRSA-contaminated surfaces (Cohen, 2005). Many risk factors for developing MRSA exist within athletics, including the sharing of clothing, sports equipment, towels, balms, lubricants, razors, and soaps; improper care of skin lesions; and direct skin-to-skin contact with MRSA lesions (Beam & Buckley, 2006). The Indiana Department of Health reported that two wrestling teammates who had never wrestled against one another developed MRSA infections, thus implicating shared items as the source of transmission (CDC, 2003). Of the total cases of 5. aureus diagnosed annually, the proportion of those infected with MRSA rose from 29% in 2001-2002 to 64% in 2003-2004 (McKenna, 2008). A CDC analysis found that 8% to 20% of all MRSA infections reported in hospitals were of the community strain (McKenna, 2008). Thus CA-MRSA is not only of interest to health department sanitarians but to hospital infection control personnel as well.
Athletic-related MRSA cases among athletes are most common in sports involving high levels of physical contact, such as wrestling, football, and rugby (Kirkland & Adams, 2008) . Cases have also been reported, however, among athletes participating in soccer, basketball, field hockey, volleyball, rowing, martial arts, fencing, and baseball (CDC, 2005). Few studies have focused on the presence of MRSA in wrestling environments, where the athletes are potentially at the greatest risk. The first case of MRSA among a wrestling team was reported in 1993 as a forearm abscess (Lindenmayer, Schoenfeld, O'Grady & Carney 1998) . Lindenmayer and coauthors conducted a study from January 1993 through February 1994, tracking the number of MRSA cases reported at a local hospital. During that year, seven of 32 (22%) wrestlers acquired MRSA (Lindenmayer et al., 1998). A recent MRSA prevalence study observed 90% of facilities had two or more positive MRSA surfaces. Nearly half of the 90 surfaces tested (46.7%) produced positive results for MRSA (Montgomery, Ryan, Krause, & Starkey 2010). The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of MRSA in rural Ohio high school wrestling environments, including wrestling mats, locker rooms, and athletic health care facilities, to better characterize such environments and their potential for MRSA spread.
Nine rural southeast Ohio high school wrestling and athletic health care facilities were sampled for the presence of MRSA within one to two hours prior to the start of practice; in most cases the mats used for practices are also used for competition. As a general prohibition, street shoes are not permitted on the mats at any time although compliance with this prior to sampling was not ascertained. Ten similar categorical surfaces were sampled using sterile swabs. Composite samples (i.e., multiple swab contacts on a similar category) were collected from the surfaces of treatment tables, the outside and handle of the moist heat unit, athletic training room doorknobs, and the outside and lid of the biohazard container (when present). Wrestling mat samples were taken as a composite sample, from 10 locations distributed evenly throughout the inner circle of the wrestling mat and 30 locations from the larger outer circle (Figure 1). Samples collected in the wrestling locker room were obtained from the doorknob, sink faucets and handles, shower faucets and handles, and the surface of the benches.
The institutional review committee exempted formal review and approval of this study as no human testing took place. The MRSA analytical methods employed in this study are identical to those used by Montgomery and co-authors (2010), and the reader is referred to that study for full details of sampling techniques and colony identification. The same laboratory was used to culture and grow the samples in both studies.
Laboratory surfaces were disinfected before and after sampling to prevent personal or cross-contamination. The swab samples were streaked onto BBL CHROMagar(TM) MRSA plates within 24 hours of collection and prior to the manufacturers expiration date. Plates were incubated at 35°C for 24-48 hours with minimal exposure to light. BBL(TM) CHROMagar MRSA(TM) is a selective and differential medium that uses cefoxitin in order to identify MRSA. Mauve-colored colonies are indicative of positive MRSA samples due to the hydrolysis of the chromogenic substrate (Becton, Dickenson & Co., 2008). The agar plates have a 95% accuracy rate for MRSA when mauve colonies are detected within the first 24 hours of grow out (Flayhart et al., 2005). After incubation for 24 hours, the plates were checked for mauve colonies, and those lacking any were incubated for an additional 24±4 hours. Plates not demonstrating mauve colonies by 48 hours were reported as negative for MRSA. The computer software SPSS, version 15.0, was used to process descriptive statistics and frequencies.
CA-MRSA strains were detected on wrestling mats and athletic training room surfaces. All nine (100%) of the sites tested had at least one positive sample for the presence of MRSA. The inner and outer circles of wrestling mats displayed the greatest prevalence of MRSA (89%), while the doorknobs of the athletic training room were the least common site of MRSA detection (22%) (Table 1). Of the 31 available sites sampled in the athletic training facilities, 14 (45%) were positive for CA-MRSA; in the wrestling area, 36 of the 54 (67%) of the samples produced positive results (Table 2). The prevalence of MRSA by sampling surface category is depicted graphically in Figure 2.
Some schools have the mats rolled at night, while some are stacked, and others are simply left as they are. Although mats are supposed to be routinely cleaned and stored in a hygienic manner, we could not determine in the course of our study what the true practices were in each facility except to note that a consistent approach was clearly not implemented across all facilities. Thus, the effect of storage and outside traffic fic on these results could not be definitively ascertained.
The prevalence of MRSA by school varied greatly ranging from 10% to 88% (Table 2). At the school with the least frequent MRSA detection ("H"), only the wrestling benches were positive (Figure 3). The majority of the schools ranged from 40% to 56% of surfaces being positive for MRSA. Data indicate that the following three surfaces have the highest percentage of MRSA detections: inner circle of the wrestling mats, outer circle of the wrestling mats, and the biohazard container (when present). Schools A, F, and G, however, lacked a distinct biohazards waste container, therefore no samples could be collected in that category. This data demonstrates that locker room benches and sinks were found to be more frequently contaminated than waste containers (Figure 3). The inner and outer circles of wrestling mats were found to have a perfect Pearson's correlation (r = 1.0), indicating there was no significant difference between inner and outer ring contamination rates.
In comparing locations, great MRSA variability is evident. One school had seven out of eight surfaces test positive for the presence of MRSA (88%), while another had only one of 10 (10%) surfaces test positive. These results demonstrate variability in the presence of MRSA among high school wrestling facilities, yet are consistent with the variability in total numbers of positives reported by Montgomery and co-authors (2010). Since cleaning and decontamination procedures at the various schools were not examined in the project, it is not precisely clear what explains this wide range of MRSA prevalence. Plausible explanations include sampling variability, hygiene practices at the schools (i.e., 33% of the schools lacked a designated biohazards container), time between sampling and last cleaning at the schools, and actual MRSA prevalence differences.
A high prevalence of MRSA occurred in the inner and outer circles of wrestling mats (89%), strongly suggesting that high school wrestlers are exposed to an elevated risk of surface-contact MRSA colonization and infection. The sitting surfaces of wrestling locker room benches also displayed a high prevalence of MRSA (78%). As this is considered to be a high traffic area (all wrestlers are in contact with the benches on a daily basis), the risk of contamination reinforces the CDCs recommendation for proper and frequent cleaning of these surfaces.
Data reinforce the presumption that the risk of MRSA contamination is not limited to surfaces with which only wrestlers come into contact. An additional threat of MRSA contamination arises from other surfaces and equipment present in the athletic training facility. Biohazard containers had the greatest prevalence of MRSA of surfaces found within the athletic training room (83%), and treatment tables also displayed a frequent presence of MRSA (56%). Such findings illustrate the heightened likelihood of all student athletes and health care providers in the high school coming into contact with MRSA from such shared facilities. Therefore it is possible for athletes to transfer MRSA from one individual to another, with the treatment tables serving as the transmission medium. This reinforces the crucial need to maintain frequent and proper cleaning regimens of all surfaces within the athletic training facility, especially high traffic surfaces such as treatment tables.
CDC recommendations to prevent MRSA infections include proper personal hygiene, washing hands often, showering immediately following exercise, and washing uniforms and clothing after each use. It is also important to not share any personal items and to take proper care of skin, including wearing protective clothing and covering all abrasions and lacerations (CDC, 2005). The awareness level of facility users relative to the CDC guidelines was not determined in this study. Future studies might explore student athletes' knowledge of MRSA risks and prevention safeguards, and athletic trainer and coaching staff attitudes regarding the need for proper hygiene. The opportunity exists for the study of sanitarian or health educator interventions directed at the general MRSA-affected population in schools with athletic facilities and-by extension- community recreation centers.
Although not expressly studied here, it was anecdotally noted that a wide variety of cleaners, sanitizers, and detergents were utilized across the facilities. In order to prevent MRSA from spreading via use of athletic equipment and facilities it is imperative to follow proper cleaning regimens. Facilities should be kept clean and cleaning procedures should be reviewed with environmental services staff to ensure that CDC guidelines are being met. Surfaces that are most commonly touched should receive more frequent cleaning. Detergents and disinfectants registered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) as effective against MRSA should be used to clean surfaces. It is important to follow all instruction labels of all cleaners and disinfectants, paying particular attention to the amount of contact time each product must have on surfaces in order to be effective. The rigor with which such practices are followed would make for a timely and significant follow-up study to the findings reported here.
Gonzaga and co-authors recommend disinfecting wrestling mats and other commonly shared environments with an alcohol-based sanitizers consisting of Chlorhexidine or triclosan (Gonzaga, Mortimer, Wolinsky & Rammelkamp, 1964). The addition of Chlorhexidine to alcohol is known to intensify its bactericidal effects (Elston, 2007). The National Federation of State High School Associations requires disinfecting wrestling mats prior to use as well as laundering mops, towels, and athletic gear on a daily basis (National Federation of State High School Associations, 2007).
These findings support the premise that high school wrestlers are frequently exposed to several potential MRSA contact points. Nine of the 10 high schools sampled had at least one positive result for MRSA; at two schools, 80% of the locations tested were positive for MRSA, another two schools were positive at 70% of the locations, and three were positive at half of all locations tested. Of the locations that wrestlers were most likely to have bare skin contact with - the inner circle of the wrestling mat, the outer circle, and locker room benches - most were positive for MRSA in the majority of the samplings.
Athletes at the schools that were sampled compete against one another regularly throughout the season. Further research could determine if the same strain of CAMRSA is being transmitted from one team to another, therefore spreading MRSA among different schools. This information could further aid in the prevention and reduction of outbreaks, and could be of use to sanitarians and associated public health officials for both managing CA-MRSA cases and in controlling the chain of infection.

I love getting to photograph large families- it is always such a great Christmas gift to give parents and nice for everyone to do photos together.
Category Archives: Families
Hard to believe that this sweet girl is two! She was one of my last newborns before having Nicholas in 2010. Happy birthday Abigail!
This is one of my all time favorite families, and my own little ones' nanny! It was such a privilege to do some holiday photos for them.
How sweet is this family of three? I swear Nora is an absolute doll! I can't wait for her 6 month session.
This session was so fun!! What a nice group of people and loved their color scheme!

text: "Christian Clerget said that 2007 required 'lots of sorting but mostly for under ripe fruit rather than rot. We began picking on August 31st and brought in a very small crop that averaged only 30 hl/ha, which isn't much since that figure includes both the Bourgogne and the villages wines. Sugars were reasonable if not high at between 11.5 and 12%, which means that there was very little chaptalization as I hate high alcohol burgundy. The fermentations were very fast and I did almost no punching down and only a couple of pump overs. By contrast, the malos were quite extended, which is fine as the wines seem to pick up flesh and weight as they developed in barrel. For me, 2007 is a bit like 2001, which is to say that the wines will be relatively easy drinking early on but be capable of aging well over the medium term." I also retasted from bottle several of Clerget's '06s as he previously said that he might fine a few of them and I'm happy to report that they are notably better in bottle than they were in cask as the fining definitely seem to round off what were moderately edgy finishes." -Allen Meadows, Burghound.

Diggory is the surname of a wizarding family. They live near Ottery St. Catchpole in Devon, England, and thus close to the Weasley (The Burrow), Lovegood, and Fawcett families.
Family members
- Eldritch Diggory — a former Minister for Magic
- Amos Diggory — a Ministry of Magic employee in the 1990s
- Cedric Diggory — a Hufflepuff student and Triwizard Champion who was killed by Peter Pettigrew in 1995
- Mrs Diggory — Amos's wife and Cedric's mother
It is commonly believed that J. K. Rowling borrowed Diggory from Digory Kirke in C.S. Lewis's Narnia series, as he is said to be one of her favourite authors.

Madera joins in national observances
A community prayer gathering that's usually held during the evening on the National Day of Prayer was moved to noon this year.
Praying earlier on Thursday was intended to accommodate people who work so they'd pray during lunchtime, said John Pursell, the pastor of the Believers Church of Madera and a member of the Madera Ministerial Association.
He led 54 people, who gathered before the steps of the Madera County Museum, in praying for local, state and federal officials.
"Today we are just asking the citizens to come together and pray for our nation. Just come together and ask the Lord to help our nation in different areas and bring us into a consciousness of God and bring our nation back to a place of serving him," said Pursell...

Your shopping cart is empty.
Shipping Note: It is common for words to span a few feet in length depending on the letter height ordered. Words exceeding 26 inches in length may be subject to actual shipping charges which may be more than what is shown in the shopping cart at the conclusion of your order. We will contact you if actual shipping charges apply to your order.
The winner of the easiest sign installation contest: Painted Stand Alone Letters come out of the box and leap onto the counter, aisle, or shelf in an instant. A favorite of schools, offices, and shops, the letters are attached to a base that sits on any flat surface.
Before they are painted, we cut the words (or letter) from Baltic Birch plywood, the strongest wood material we carry. The pieces are sanded, assembled, and then coated with a smooth finish matte acrylic paint. The the wood grain pattern subtly shows through the painted finish, lending a handmade look with a professional touch. Each word is cut as one piece unless specified otherwise.
These fine looking stand alone letters are cut custom per order. Ships within 5 business days.
The letter height you order is based on the uppercase letter "A" of the font you specify. Depending on the font, some uppercase/lowercase letters may be shorter or taller than the height you specify on the order form so they will look proportionate to each other. Therefore, you may receive some of your lettering in different dimensions than the letter height ordered. If all lettering is ordered in lower case, we still scale the lettering to an uppercase "A" which will make most of the letters smaller than what was ordered. Please contact us if you would like to size your lettering differently from our standards. Please see examples below
Note: The 1/8, 1/4 and 3/8 inch thickness are cut with a laser which leaves a dark smooth edge that can be painted over. All other thicknesses are cut with a router, leaving a clean edge.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions you
may have and we will be glad to assist you.

Just as hoped. Thank you.
I ordered a stand-alone "Laundry" sign for my laundry/mudroom. The finished product was exactly what I wanted. I am very pleased.
Love my product. Will be a returning customer.
I wanted a unique piece of wood decor to add to a small display area, and Woodland produced exactly what I had envisioned. The items was thoughtfully wrapped and came right on time. I am very pleased with my purchase.
The turnaround was quick and the quality was great... This result was exactly what I was looking for. I also thought the ordering process was simple and efficient.
Thank you for your exceptional product. The item I ordered was exactly as desired and I could not be more pleased!
My boyfriend has recently passed away and I wanted something as a little tribute to him to have in my home.
His nickname was "Chief" so I ordered this in the stand-alone letters. It came in a short amount of time,
is beautifully crafted and looks exactly as it did online.
It is perfect and I am very satisfied with the purchase.
I have ordered several of the stand alone signs with family name and love them. This is my stock wedding/shower gift with their new name and is always a big hit. Perfect gift at a reasonable price.
The website was very user-friendly and had lots of variety to choose from. The product looks fabulous. It was an anniversary gift for my wife and she loves it!
The letters were cut beautifully.
The paint job was another story.
For future references when painting the numbers for a wedding, always paint the bottoms as well.
Looks like a five year old finished them.

It's more than just the Chicago-set sitcom that introduced us to
Christina Applegate. It might just be the key to happiness. Sound
Let's backtrack:
We all assume kids make us happy. We remember birthday parties
and piano recitals and afternoons in the park. And if memories
fade, there are always home movies and bronzed baby shoes and hard
drives full of pictures to remind us that parenthood is an
unparalleled joy and privilege.
And yet for years, research has repeatedly told us that the opposite is true,
that having kids actually decreases a married couple's happiness.
Fewer nights out with the gals, fewer tee times with the guys,
stress about babyproofing and bills and bullies -- it all adds us.
Not that it stopped anyone from having kids, but nearly all the
existing research pointed to one reality: Having kids makes parents
less happy.
But an news tidbit out of Scotland last week has added something
new to the debate.
An article published last week in the Journal
of Happiness Studies (to which I'm now seriously considering a
subscription) says that having kids makes a married couple happier.
Combing through 15 years of data from the biennial British
Household Panel Survey, researchers found that:
Contrary to much of the literature, our results are consistent
with an effect of children on life satisfaction that is positive,
large and increasing in the number of children.
That last part? It means the more kids, the better -- up to
three. (Kind of makes you wonder what it is about that fourth
It's also worth noting that for single people, kids decreased
happiness. Most (though not all) single parents did not plan on
going it alone, and as anyone with kids knows, it's a pretty heavy
load to bear.
No survey will change the fact that most of us want to have
kids. Chalk it up to instinct, social norms, or one too many
Lifetime movies -- we're wired for family. The birthday parties and
piano recitals and afternoons in the park cloud over the terrible
two's and chicken pox and the specter of college tuition costs.

It's been a little more than a week since the state's new computer system issued it's first set of welfare benefits. But bugs in the program continue to cause huge problems, especially for those dependent on Medicaid.
Take for example, Kelly Bull. She recently moved here with her husband whose job doesn't offer medical insurance.
Delays have kept her from getting Medicaid. She says she understands the computer is slowing down the process but trying to get answers from the Department of Human Services has been frustrating.
"They really haven't given me an excuse at all. It's really hard to get through to anybody to talk to in person."
She says the worst part is being new to the area and not knowing where to go for help.

Kim Steutermann RogersThursday, October 7, 2010
Lynn Muramoto was a tenured elementary school teacher when an afternoon in a valley on Kauai's west side changed her life. Hawaii can do that to you. Many visit the Hawaiian Islands and dream of moving here. I did. But Lynn is second generation Japanese American. Kauai was already her home. The 32 acres in Lawai Valley were overgrown with invasive trees and shrub, so thick it took chainsaws, many people and hours too numerous to count to hack out a decent clearing. But Lynn saw something that afternoon on Kauai's south shore. She saw her life's purpose tucked behind a cluster of homes that front Kaumualii Highway. The place didn't look like much. Not then. It certainly didn't look like a classroom. Lynn loved teaching. She loved children. But she returned home, quit her job and devoted her efforts to restoring a skinny stretch of land in Lawai Valley--land she didn't even own.
"Initially, we thought it was just going to be a clean-up project, but as we started clearing, we knew that this place was meant to be shared with all people of the world, a place to uplift all of humanity, through compassion and the pure aloha that the host culture has given us."
Tucked on the hillside, in the shade of monkeypod and mango trees, underneath a tangle of branches and dislodged by tree roots and sticky fingers, sat 88 miniature shrines. The name, Lawai, translates to "forgiving waters." Lynn tells the story of Lawai with a quiet, melodic voice. The air around her resonates with something as graceful and easy as a peaceful Sunday afternoon. She says, "This area was actually a pu'uhonua--place of sanctuary and safety. Hawaiians journeyed here from around the island for healing. The area was very sacred. Queen Emma had her summer home at the mouth of the Lawai Stream, and she would bathe in sacred ponds up in the mountains." In the 19th century, Hawaiians made room for Asian immigrants as they journeyed to Hawaii to work in pineapple canneries and sugar fields. The heiau was joined by Taoist and Shinto temples. In the early 20th century, lay priests from Japan built 88 Shingon shrines to replicate a thousand mile walk that is over a thousand years old. Today, the 88 shrines situated on a humble hillside in rural Lawai is one of oldest Buddhist temple sites in U.S.
"One woman named Grandma Nonaka came here every month for over 60 years. Before her sons went off to World War II and the Korean War, she went to each one of the little shrines and took a pinch of the soil and put it in a Bull Durham tobacco pouch and pinned it onto her sons. She told them that when they returned safely, they were to return this pouch of soil to the land. And, so, they did. Each and every one of them. Five sons. The tradition continues. Pouches of soil have gone to Iraq and back many of times." For almost 50 years, people traveled to Lawai from all points of the island. They came to walk the path connecting the 88 shrines. They came for healing. They came to offer prayers. In the late 1960s, however, the Lawai Cannery closed, people moved away, and "that's how this became a forgotten place and soon the little weeds became trees and was totally overgrown."
Forgotten, that is, until 1990, when Lynn stopped by for an afternoon. She pours jasmine green tea for us on our visit. "Come close," she says, "Because of my natural speaking voice." We lean in, eager to hear. "We took chainsaws and hand-cleared the land. Gave it more breath. More light. The energy of this place totally changed," she says as the sound of birds singing in the background mix with the faint sound of tires on the nearby highway's pavement.
Soon after, the property went on the market. Asking price: $6 million. Lynn didn't have $6 million dollars. But she kept working and acting as if she did. She formed a non-profit organization. Volunteers appeared. Boy Scouts Troop #83. A retired Grove Farm executive. A local librarian. They weeded. They repaired. They dusted shrines, using five different types of brushes, requiring five hours. "They do this, because they want to serve the community and the world," Lynn says. "This project is way beyond shrines." Lynn and her volunteers went to the county fair and made 28,000 malasadas, the largest malasada booth in the fair's history. They went to Waimea Town Celebration and made 78,000 plates of stew and rice. "Grandma made mango seeds. She picked her own mangoes, dried them in the Hanapepe sun and cooked them on an open fire. We sold those at $5 a bag; 10,000 bags over a 15 year period."
And, then, people outside Hawaii started to get involved.
"The path may be a Buddhist path, yet many of the board members are Christian. The first large contribution coming to the organization came from a Jewish community foundation from California." About 12 years ago, Lynn's pro bono attorney suggested it was time to make an offer on the land. They offered $200,000, and on $250,000 for the 32 acres. But Lynn and her team of volunteers didn't have $250,000.
Five days later, a couple from Maine came by the property. They were moved by the place that they offered a one-year $50,000 interest-free loan. "Total strangers," says Lynn. "The other $200,000 was lent by another generous individual on this island, and so we had a mortgage."
Soon after, Lawai International Center appeared in the in-flight magazine of the then-operational Aloha Airlines. Somehow, a couple on the mainland received a copy of the magazine, and without visiting, they called and made a $250,000 donation.
The check arrived in the mail. "Everything was handwritten, the check, the envelope. Everything. So we paid for the land."
Hand-written. Hand-cleared. It seems appropriate. Especially when you consider the next event for the Lawai International Center is a replica of a 13th century structure—that has already been hand-carved and hand-built and named the "Hall of Compassion." It will be shipped from Japan and erected on site at Lawai International Center in the Fall of 2011. Lynn pauses in her story to ask, "Are there any questions?" A good teacher, still. "It will take six master carpenters and two weeks to erect. We might be able to video stream the construction. We don't know the cost. But we just put it out there. Like everything else."
And we believe her. "They told us 21 years ago that this was a "no can" project. They told us that dreams are not possible. And, today, you are here. You are living the dream."
Lawai International Center is open the second and last Sunday of every month from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., or by appointment.

First Hartford, now MGM Grand at Foxwoods. It's ice rink and ice skating fever.
For a three-month trial period beginning Thursday, ice skating will be held at the new Grand Rink at MGM Grand at Foxwoods, an outdoor amenity located outsides MGM's Premiere Ballroom.
The rink has a capacity of 200 people and will be open to the public Sunday through Thursday from 2 to 10 p.m, and Friday and Saturday from noon to midnight. Cost of a two-hour skate is $10 plus $5 for skate rental for adults, and $6 with a $2 skate rental fee for children. Dream Card holders can skate for free on Tuesdays at "Dream Skate."
Following the rink's grand opening, the property will also host a series of special events and invite local businesses and associations for company skates throughout the winter.
"Foxwoods offers a variety of entertainment and leisure activities year-round and the holiday season is certainly no exception," said casino marketing officer Robert Victoria. "We're constantly striving to provide our guests with the best entertainment experience available anywhere and our skating rink certainly provides a unique way for them to embrace the holiday spirit."
Hartford is also bringing an ice rink to its Bushnell Park beginning Dec. 10. Free skating will be offered there through the first week of January.

European championship, Denmark
This is second round match from group C. Serbia - the defending european champion is also in this group. Yesterday we had chance to see here great upset when Serbian team was defeated from Slovenia.
Slovenia in my opinion is the weakest team of this group. But yesterday's result is the reason why we have now this great odds on Finland. I think this is value bet. We should not be fooled by yesterday's results. It was actually poor performance of Serbia the reason for upset.
Finland is team on higher level then Slovenia and with more success on big competitions. 2-0 is head to head score in favor of Finland.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- NASCAR driver Greg Biffle climbed into a bulldozer, pulled a few levers and then dumped a load of dirt onto the ground.
Fireworks exploded in the background.
Biffle earned the honor of breaking ground on a $400 million renovation at Daytona International Speedway on Friday. Biffle and fellow driver Trevor Bayne teamed up to win an obstacle-course race in massive front-end loaders outside the famed track.
Biffle and Bayne maneuvered the course faster than two other teams. Fellow Sprint Cup drivers Jeff Burton and Ryan Newman finished second, followed by television announcers Darrell Waltrip and Larry McReynolds.
Biffle and Bayne hoisted trophies in a mock Victory Lane celebration and were rewarded with a brief stint in the cockpit of the

In order to keep the UK in, EU leaders should stop talking the federalist talk. Whenever German chancellor Angela Merkel speaks about "more Europe" and "political union", a British audience hears "superstate" and feels a strong inclination to hurry to the exit. And there is no need to scare the Brits off. In reality, not even the Germans want to take a "great leap" towards a federal state. Merkel has always been a proponent of De Gaulle's "Europe of the fatherlands" and she regularly sidelines Brussels. And it is Berlin that is now delaying and watering down the "banking union".
Germany has no roadmap towards a federal Europe. Merkel is using the federalist rhetoric as a tactic. The "more Europe" buzz phrase is directed towards several audiences. It is meant to regain the trust of investors and partners around the world: trust us, we're going to bring our house in order, you can buy European bonds and count on us. Secondly, euro-federalism has been an essential part of Germany's political culture since its first post-war chancellor, Konrad Adenauer. Embedding Germany in Europe was always a way to recover from the Nazi past and make sure that history wouldn't repeat itself; "more Europe" simply sounds reassuring to German ears. And thirdly, in today's political debate in Germany, "more Europe" is often translated into "more control for Germany over debtor countries". Which is of course an illusion. In a federalist eurozone of 332 million people, 82 million Germans would be easily outvoted. Berlin's power in the EU today is not only based on the fact that it is an economic powerhouse, but also on the fact that it is a sovereign nation state. A federalist eurozone would probably have introduced Eurobonds long ago - something that Germany strongly opposes.
After over twenty crisis summits, it is now clear that the European house is not going to be fundamentally rebuilt - the EU will not turn into a state. The limits of integration have been reached, more or less. Peer pressure and the threat of withholding funds remain the only serious tools EU governments are going to have to enforce discipline and encourage reform. In key areas the powerful member states will always be able to cast a veto, formally or if necessary informally. Brussels will never be empowered by member states to exert central control. And Berlin cannot, even by default, play the role of an imperial centre. Germans don't want it. And should they try to obtain it there would be a massive backlash. Smaller neighbours would immediately build coalitions against Germany and isolate Berlin.
That leaves only one way ahead: improving the efficiency of the current framework. This means better cooperation and coordination among largely sovereign states. And leaders should focus less on institutions and more on growth, by removing obstacles to the single market, by pushing for trade deals, with Asia, the United States and others, and by investing in cross-border infrastructure.

San Diego The local Republican Party gave $70,000 to City Council candidates earlier this week just before new campaign contribution limits took effect on Thursday.
Political party donations in city elections are now limited to $10,000 for council races and $20,000 for citywide elections.
The local Republican Party announced Friday that it had contributed $50,000 to Councilwoman Lorie Zapf's re-election bid and $20,000 to council contender Chris Cate earlier this week. Both candidates have been endorsed by the party.
The local Democratic Party contributed $7,500 to Councilwoman Myrtle Cole to help her pay off campaign debts, according to Francine Busby, the party chair.
The new limits could have gone into effect earlier, but Mayor Bob Filner delayed signing the ordinance that changed them.
The mayor extended the window for political parties to give unlimited campaign contributions to city candidates because he didn't sign the ordinance for two weeks. The City Council approved the ordinance June 18, but Filner didn't sign it until July 2. Ordinances go into effect 30 days after the mayor's signature.
To be sure, the Republican Party likely would have given money to its candidates regardless of when the new law went into effect. But the extra weeks gave the party more time to raise that money.
City leaders moved quickly this past spring with a proposal to cap how much political parties can give directly to city candidates after both major parties flooded campaigns with more than $1.3 million during the past three years.
No limits were in place during that period because of a judge's ruling that the city's previous ban on political party contributions was unconstitutional.

A patient Rocklin club opens up in the sixth for 9-2 win
The Rocklin High softball team claimed the Sierra Foothill League pennant with a 9-2 victory over visiting Granite Bay Wednesday.
Like a cat waiting to pounce, the Thunder waited patiently for an opening and then took full advantage of it.
After battling run-for-run for five innings, Rocklin held a 3-2 lead. In the top half of the sixth inning, senior pitcher Kendall Chambers held the Grizzlies scoreless and opened the door for Rocklin to make its move.
Leadoff batter Winona Vigil was hit by a pitch and Delanie Chrisman followed with a walk. Then, on a crucial overthrow at first base, Jillian Lerner made it to second base while Vigil scored. Cali Lewis then loaded the bases with a base hit.
Granite Bay went back to pitcher Caitlyn McDuffee after relieving her in the fifth inning but the junior couldn't stem the Thunder storm.
Sam Moffat brought home a run with a single and Mallory Asaro did the same. Alana Rainer sacrificed home a run and Maddie Wuelfing brought in the final run with a single before being called out trying to stretch the play to second base; when the dust cleared, Thunder 9, Granite Bay 2.
McKenzie Fairbanks opened with a base hit in the seventh inning but from there Chambers and Co. went to work and quickly retired the Grizzlies.
Chambers said her confidence was up after a slow start to the season. The Thunder will open the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section Division I Playoffs with a bye and then take on the winner of the Buhach Colony vs. Modesto game. Rocklin is scheduled to play at the Sacramento Softball Complex May 18, 11 a.m.
Rocklin second-year head coach Marissa Hardy complimented her team as to their maturity, patience and confidence. She said the Thunder players are willing to wait until their opponent gives them an opening no matter how late in the game that opportunity comes.
The victory put Rocklin at 13-2 in league with Woodcreek second with a record of 11-3. The Thunder are 23-3 overall.

Two weeks? No red line - if one developes get to er, no bulls eye which usually forms w/in 1 - 72 hrs., not painful yet still hard & swollen.... did not mention if you had applied triple anti antibiotic cream or rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide solution a few times daily, either way... with a healthy immune system you should have noticed at some reduction in size within three to seven days and near complete healing within two - three weeks depending... I would return for a follow up visit at this point.
dark and swollen? Is it changing colors too? Have you gotten more muscular since that time, with the ability to shoot web from your wrists? :)

I don't know, I've never been bitten by a spider bigger than a pencil eraser, and it went away within 24 hours.
:D I was just checking..
Check every 10 minutes. Mark how big it gets every time you check. If it turns colors or gets really big go see a docter
Is it hard and hot to the touch as well?

If it is dark and swollen, hard and hot to the touch then you need to have somebody help you with that immediately !
Wait untl you stop bl<x>inking
Did it go away yet? I'm worried about it...
Shouldn't last two weeks.
Go see your doctor right away. we sometimes think that things will heal on their own,

Two weeks and no treatment, for now look it up on the internet and see if your doc will sent you to a specialist.

Take care
i wouldn't wait; ice it, benadryl, & see a doctor.
I dont want to freak you , however i got a bite from some sort of insect it was a clear blister with black dots inside , the doctor lanced it and little insects eggs were inside it. still sends a chill down my back.
argh! its alive! i'm sorry but that just creeps me out......
what sort of spider was it if you don't mind me asking? i think the bite shouldn't be the way it is & how you described it. although some will react differently to spider bite then others.

Best Resumes of New York Executive Resume Writing Service
A resume writer has to
size up a client's professional life and career direction in short
order. It is not always straightforward – a good resume writer will
uncover accomplishments and provide consultation on career goals. That
said, it is difficult for a resume writer to answer the question, "How
much do you charge? This article will help you to see
things from the perspective of a resume writer.
Let's "listen in" on a
call from a job seeker seeking to have his or her resume "typed up."
<Call Begins>
Ring, ring, ring . . .
Resume Writer: "Good
morning, XYZ Resume Service. How may I help you?"
Caller: "Yes, I'd like
to know how much you charge."
Resume Writer: "My
prices start at $325 and go up from there depending on your career level
and the complexity of
the resume."
Caller: "$325! To type
up a resume? Wow, I didn't realize it was that much to type up a resume!"
"Yes, that is the starting fee. The typing is free."
Caller: "What do you
Resume Writer: "It is important
to understand that a professional
executive resume
service is very different from a typing service. The
word processing work that goes into the creation of the resume is to
materialize the resume. That aspect of the resume development process
involves a lot of creativity to produce a very crisp looking, attractive
resume that will stand out in a pile of poorly formatted, disorganized
resumes. And honestly, that's the easy part. Before we get to that
point, we provide in-depth consultation to ask many gold-mining
questions that are specific to what your particular job is about and
what your current situation is behind why you need a resume.
For example, are you an executive, a
recent graduate, recently laid off, returning to the
transitioning from the military to civilian workforce,
or are you bored in your
current job and need a change?
We are qualified to answer many questions that go beyond the
resume preparation, such as how to answer tough interview questions or
how to post your resume online. If you tell us you are not sure what
type of position you are seeking, we will not be able to develop
your resume because our resumes are very focused
and in-depth. Like you, we want your resume to WORK!
Our expertise is sure
to make a big difference between your
job and making your next career move. We take the
necessary time to understand what you do and to obtain important
information about your work history and accomplishments. Yes, it is not
just about your responsibilities. A strong resume needs to focus on your
strengths and achievements. Once we have the right information, we
organize it and develop a strategy that often results in a format unlike
the simple chronological format. When we are done, we engage in the
follow up process to review the
resume and make necessary revisions. Considering the
work that goes into it and the end result (most important), $325 (or
more) is an excellent investment for such a service."
The next time you call
a resume service, try something like this:
"Hi, I was just on your website,
viewed your
resume samples, and would like to schedule a few minutes with
you to tell you about my resume needs and to learn more about your
Caller: Okay, thank you for explaining
everything and helping me to see the value in your services.
How do we
get started?
<Call Ends>
So, what did you get out
of listening in on this conversation? Like the caller, did you at first only want to hear the
price, or did you find yourself interested in the value behind the
price of my services? If you want to learn more about my
resume writing services,
Contact me,
Ann Baehr. I will take the time to speak with you about your
needs, and will help you decide on partnering with me on the development
of your resume, as well as other career documents,
such as cover letters and LinkedIn Profiles
that will generate interviews, prepare you for your
interview, and boost your confidence.

World class food without the hustle and bustle of inner city dining, the venue is stunning to match the exceptional menu.
