Ladies, you might think your significant other is lucky to get a home-cooked meal every once in a while, but in Ashlee Coln's world, cooking is a much spicier affair.
And it's all because things got dangerously hot in her kitchen. "I've always loved to cook, but one night after a few cocktails, I realized cooking in sassy lingerie could ruin the garment and cooking in the nude usually leads to injury," she said.
Coln, 25, said nearly getting burned (while preparing sautéed mushrooms in port cream sauce for her boyfriend) put her on a mission to find a sexy but serviceable apron for her steamy cooking sessions. "I assumed it was something that already existed," said Coln, who studied hospitality at Metropolitan State College before starting an event planning business three years ago. Finding no such aprons in stores or online, she decided to create her own.
With the help of a girlfriend who sews, Coln whipped up some prototypes and Cheeky Aprons was born. She launched her website (cheeky-aprons.com) Tuesday and plans to start hosting trunk shows in retail stores this week.
The Cheeky ruffled $60 "baking skirt" in a black and white vine cotton print is backed in linen. The design is complete with ties and a built-in garter belt. The basic full apron, $90, features a plunging neckline, lace in the midsection and comes in a zebra print or polka dots. Coln promises future launches that will be in high-end fabrics and feature lace and other fine trims.
Coln insists her Cheeky Aprons are sophisticated and not a Frederick's of Hollywood-style costume. "We are stressing quality and design," she said. "It's a beautiful apron that doubles as lingerie," she says.
Her website features some of her favorite recipes (chocolate lava cake) as well as apron descriptions and photos of models in the garments.
She thinks that her products are more likely to be a gift than an item a woman buys for herself. "I think it will be wonderful for bridal showers or a Valentine's gift. It's a little different; classy, but fun."
Coln acknowledges that "some women will feel this is a throw-back idea to the 'Apron Era,' where a woman's only place was in the home and kitchen." But she says, "I support whatever makes a woman feel wonderful in her own skin. The aprons make me feel feminine and sophisticated with a little bit of sass."
Aside from the desire to add "sass" to the menu, isn't it just impractical to cook when you're nearly naked? Perhaps, but that's not the point, Coln says.
"I've talked to a lot of people — friends, brides, grooms and a lot of gentlemen," Coln says. "They say that cooking was sexually intriguing for them, but that in general, aprons aren't the most attractive pieces of fabric. So when you mix lingerie with an apron, the gentlemen get the eye candy and it intrigues them at the same time. It's a beautiful balance between the utility of an apron and the sex appeal and mystery of lingerie."
Coln says her boyfriend is excited about the venture — and not just because of the eye candy. He likes that "I'm so driven," she says.

Santa Maria Valley (Bailey)
Lithology and Stratigraphy
This subsection contains mostly Pleistocene nonmarine deposits and recent alluvium. Dune sand is common and there are some areas of Quaternary marine and Plio-Pleistocene nonmarine sediments.
Most of the alluvial plain is nearly level floodplain and stream terraces. Dunes are fairly extensive behind beaches along the coast and sand has spread across the terraces. A remnant marine terrace is left behind Pismo Beach. The subsection elevation range is from sea-level up to about 800 feet. Fluvial and eolian erosion and deposition are the main geomorphic processes.
The soils are mostly Fluventic and Cumulic Haploxerolls on floodplains and Mollic Haploxeralfs, Pachic Argixerolls, Typic Haploxeralfs, Mollic Palexeralfs, Alfic Xeropsamments, and Haplic Durixeralfs on stream terraces. Typic Xeropsamments, Psammentic Haploxerolls, and Alfic Xeropsamments are the main soils on dunes. Most, but not all, of the soils are leached free of carbonates. Silica has accumulated and cemented the subsoil in some terrace soils. The soils are mostly well drained. The soil temperature regimes are thermic (nearly mesic). Soil moisture regimes are mostly xeric (nearly ustic).
The predominant natural plant communities are Valley oak series along the Santa Maria River and Coast live oak series on the terraces of Nipomo Plain. The dunes support a succession of plant communities, from bare dune through herbaceous communities to California sagebrush series on stabilized dunes.
Characteristic series by lifeform include:
- Dune vegetation: Dune lupine - goldenbrush series, Sand-verbena - beach bursage series, Yellow bush lupine series.
Grasslands: California annual grassland series.
Shrublands: California encelia series, California sagebrush series, Purple sage series.
Forests and woodlands: Coast live oak series, Valley oak series.
The mean annual precipitation is about 12 to 15 inches. It is all rain; summer fog is common. Mean annual temperature is about 56° to 58° F. The mean freeze-free period is about 275 to 300 days.
Surface Water
Runoff is slow across the alluvial plains. There is little overland flow from areas of active and stabilized dunes. Natural lakes are absent, although there is temporary ponding behind sand dunes.

4-28-06 - A local psychologist is facing criminal charges for practicing without a license.
Back in September of 2004 the Grayson County DA gave Cynthia Martin-Cannici six months to reimburse fees for treatment she gave to patients during the year she was not licensed by the state board. She was also required to complete 100 hours of community service.
The DA says since that time there has been no proof of completion for either condition. Martin-Cannici faces a Class A misdemeanor charge of practicing psychology without a license.

It's Like They're Reading My Mind
How next-generation apps will market your brainwaves.
Whether it's our location, contact lists, calendars, photo albums, or search requests, app developers, advertising companies, and other tech firms are scrambling to learn everything they can about us in order to sell us things. Data from smartphone apps, aggregated by third-party companies, can indeed paint an eerily accurate picture of us, and data miners are increasingly able to predict how we will behave tomorrow. For example, as Future Tense blogger Ryan Gallagher reported for the Guardian, Raytheon, the world's fifth-largest defense contractor, has developed software called RIOT (Rapid Information Overlay Technology) that can synthesize a vast amount of data culled from social networks. By pulling, for instance, the invisible location metadata embedded in the pictures our cellphones take, RIOT tracks where we've been and accurately guesses where we will be—and provides all of this information to whomever is running the software. Other companies are increasing the accuracy of such forecasts by comparing our travel habits against our friends' locations.
Amid the growing popularity of data mining, governments around the world are taking action on perceived misdeeds, like the $7 million fine Google faces for collecting unsecured information. But the stakes are far higher than lawmakers realize. New consumer devices are emerging that, left unchecked, could enable violations of our personal privacy on a far more intimate level: our brains.
Brain-computer interfaces have been widely used in the medical and research communities for decades, but in the last few years, the technology has broken out of the lab and into the marketplace with surprising speed. (Will Oremus recently explored the potential of BCIs in Slate.) They work by recording brain activity and transmitting that information to a computer, which interprets it as various inputs or commands.
The most commonly used technique is electroencephalography, which is widely known as a medical diagnostic test (especially for detecting seizures) but now has more potential uses. An EEG device is typically a headset with a small number of electrodes placed on different parts of the skull in order to detect the electrical signals made by your brainwaves. While EEGs cannot read your mind in the traditional, Professor X-y sense, it turns out that your brainwaves can reveal a great deal about you, such as your attention level and emotional state, and possibly much more. For instance, the presence of beta waves correlates with excitement, focus, and stress. One brain signal, known as the P300 response, correlates with recognition, say of a familiar face or object. This response is so well documented that it is widely used by psychologists and researchers in clinical studies. The popularity of EEG devices over other brain scanning technologies, like fMRIs, stems from their low cost, their light weight, and their ability to collect real-time data.
The medical research community has long been interested in BCI technology as a means to treat patients with paralysis, like those with "locked-in" syndrome (a neurological condition that results in total paralysis but leaves the brain itself unaffected). Through a simple, noninvasive EEG headset, scientists are able to interpret signals from the patients' brains—for instance, lift left arm or say: "hello"—and relay these messages to a peripheral device such as an artificial limb, wheelchair, or voice box.
Scientists are also researching the use of BCIs to treat psychiatric disorders like ADHD and depression. In fact, in the summer of 2012, OpenVibe2 released a new attention-training game for children with ADHD. Based in a virtual classroom, kids perform various tasks like focusing on a cartoon or finding an object, while the game introduces various stimuli (a truck driving by outside or a dog barking) to try to distract them. An EEG headset measures their level of focus, and objects on screen become blurry as attention wanders, forcing them to refocus their attention.
In the last few years, the cost of EEG devices has dropped considerably, and consumer-grade headsets are becoming more affordable. A recreational headset capable of running a range of third-party applications can now be purchased for as little as $100. There is even an emerging app market for BCI devices, including games, self-monitoring tools, and touch-free keyboards. One company, OCZ Technology, has developed a hands-free PC game controller. NeuroSky, another EEG headset developer, recently produced a guide on innovative ways for game developers to incorporate BCIs for a better gaming experience. (Concentration level low—send more zombies!)
Likewise, auto manufacturers are currently exploring the integration of BCIs to detect drivers' drowsiness levels and improve their reaction time. There is even a growing neuromarketing industry, where market researchers use data from these same BCI devices to measure the attention level and emotional responses of focus groups to various advertisements and products. Scientists remain quite skeptical of the efficacy of these tools, but companies are nevertheless rushing to bring them to consumers.

Welcome to Turtle Season 2015!
Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) nest on South Carolina beaches May through October. S.C.U.T.E. which stands for South Carolina United Turtle Enthusiasts is one of 30 volunteer sea turtle protection projects along our coastline under the direction of the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR). The 60 mile S.C.U.T.E. area extends from North Inlet in Georgetown County to North Myrtle Beach. The six miles of DeBordieu and Hobcaw beaches typically account for 30-50% of the nests in this area.
In South Carolina, the record 2013 nesting season (5198 nests) was followed by a low nesting season in 2014 of 2096 nests. Biologists surmised that the cold winter had depleted food sources in the ocean and female turtles did not build up the body fat needed to be reproductive. This past winter, while cold, was not as severe and there are hopes for a return to healthy nesting numbers and an upward trend. Many of the first turtles from early protection efforts by SCDNR volunteer projects are reaching maturity (25-30 years) and females are coming back to nest as adults.
A REMINDER ABOUT HOLES/SANDCASTLES ON THE BEACH: Please dig holes and build sandcastles below the high tide line. The ocean will naturally fill them in. These obstacles can be a hazard to nesting & hatching sea turtles and to people walking on the beach at night. Also, please remember to turn off oceanfront lighting by 10 p.m. during the nesting season. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
On these pages we will bring you Turtle Season 2015 at DeBordieu and Hobcaw!

Personal financial matters can be hard and stressful. If you educate yourself first, your money issues might feel a bit easier to manage. In this article, you will read advice that can help you learn to deal with your finances in a productive manner.
Understanding the value of a certain item can prevent a person from selling that same item for a cheap price when it is actually valuable. An individuals personal finances will improve greatly if they properly sell a rare piece of furniture, as opposed to just throwing it away. When thinking about your personal finances, patience will save you money. You may want to go buy the latest and greatest technology as soon as it is on the market. For instance, you can save a lot of electronics by waiting for the price to drop. This will save you money in the long run. The key to total happiness and success is money management. Work to protect your profits and invest capital. If you put your profits into your capital you can build a better foundation; you need to keep a careful watch on them so you can see more profits. You need to see what you can afford to put into capital and what you should keep as profits.

Money management affects every aspect of our lives. In days gone by, people learned from hard experience Betway to save for a rainy day, pay for things with cash, and be happy with what they had. Lifestyles have changed since then, and this affects how we approach money now. If you use these personal finance tips, you can stretch every dollar further.
One strategy for staying on budget is to use more than one checking account. Manage your expenses by having an account designated for your regular monthly expenses, and a separate one for any additional expenses that might arise. This helps keep track of your money, and make sure your expenses are covered.

Rainbow Eco Office Showcases Entire Spectrum of Green Building Strategies
Posted By Diane Pham On January 4, 2010 @ 1:00 am In Architecture,Green Building | 2 Comments
Hamburg's Office for Urban Development and the Environment [1] (BSU) recently unveiled plans for a brand new eye-catching and energy-efficient office [2] that is sure to promote their green agenda. Designed by Sauerbruch Hutton [3], the colorful prismatic building will combine both passive [4] and active [5] measures to bring the structure to the forefront of energy-efficient design in 2013.
The BSU [1] will consist of one high-rise and two wing buildings, and will feature exhibition spaces, restaurants, a library, a conference center, an amphitheater and more. Given the project's diverse range of programming, Sauerbruch Hutton [3] sought to reduce the building's energy consumption as much as possible. Their design distributes both low- and high-tech green building strategies over seven separate "houses" which will be connected via an access "road" lit with natural light.
The houses have been arranged so that each has an open staircase atrium, which provides for efficient horizontal and vertical circulation and well-distributed natural light [6] and cross-ventilation in the interior spaces. Additionally, the building's facades feature enhanced thermal insulation, are designed to be transparent, and provide protection from intense sunlight. The compact building volume utilizes renewable resources such as sun-powered heating, geothermal energy [7], photovoltaic panels, and a gas-powered heat and power unit.
Sauerbruch Hutton notes that "the design of the building's spaces and surfaces supports the quantitatively measurable comfort with an architectural and environmental quality that is appropriate for the agenda of sustainability." We note that there's nothing like a splash of every color in the rainbow to brighten up a building!

|Trading Anger for Peace: William Elliott Whitmore, "Field Songs"
|Music - Feature Stories
|Written by Kate Foley
|Wednesday, 27 July 2011 08:35
William Elliott Whitmore's music is simple in structure, with basic chords and cadence. But the messages in his new album, Field Songs (released July 12), run much deeper. Pensive lyrics explore the relationships between human life and nature, and the universal connection between all living things.
But don't mistake his songs for clichés. Whitmore's sentiments are delivered with such candor and conviction that listeners might feel they're experiencing the emotions firsthand.
Whitmore accompanies his worn-leather vocals with just a single banjo or guitar, and an occasional bass drum. The listener is left with a raw sound, like sitting in on a simple, from-the-heart songwriting session. While a lone banjo or guitar puts his songs in the folk idiom, his soulful baritone is reminiscent of legends such as Tom Waits and Johnny Cash – gritty and captivating if not always beautiful. The cracks in his voice tell as much of a story as the cracks in a field worker's hands.
Whitmore bases many of his lyrics on the idea that a man may live and work on the land, but in the end he is only a small and fleeting part of nature. This philosophy is the main drive behind "We'll Carry On": "I was born in these woods / These hills are my home / But I'm just here for a little while / Because everything gets gone." There is a comfortable cohesion between life and death in his lyrics that suggests a naturalist lifestyle despite agrarian hardships. His upbringing on a horse farm in Lee County, Iowa, has an obvious influence on his songwriting.
The lyrics and melodies may be simple, but their delivery completes Whitmore's storytelling. The album begins with the chirping of birds – a cheerful, comforting sound that is often drowned out by the noise of day-to-day life. Field Songs takes a step back from the cacophony of modern life and appreciates simplicity.
Between the rural pride of the homestead and the Zen-like relationship with nature, there seems to be a dichotomy in the messages of Whitmore's lyrics. But it's in "Field Song" that he combines these competing ideals with brilliant clarity. The track picks up on a slight echo from the acoustic guitar, as though he were playing in a vaulted barn with birds in the rafters. Though Whitmore is only in his early 30s, the lyrics suggest a wisdom that has seen decades of change: "Three square meals and a minimum wage / Reminds me of the good old days / Before the manifest destiny of the factory farms / When those cutthroats came and burned down the barn."
His lyrics frequently suggest nostalgia – sometimes even a sense of loss. But he simultaneously maintains an unwavering optimism with the song's first and last lines: "Write this down and don't forget / That the best of times ain't happened yet." This unusual, pastoral harmony between hard labor and a peace drawn from nature sets Whitmore apart from other artists.
While the majority of the album works as a unified whole, "Let's Do Something Impossible" is a digression and an uncharacteristic misstep. It's difficult to decrypt his metaphors of horse races, "Paris in 1943," and Custer's Last Stand. The song is about collectively overcoming a hardship of some sort, but it's hard to figure out whom he's addressing, and it's oddly muddled compared to the rest of the album.
But overall, Field Songs is mature and trenchant, and it shows a different side of the artist from his previous releases. Animals in the Dark (from 2009) focused on political dissension with rebellious songs such as "Mutiny" and "Johnny Law," and past albums have dealt with overarching themes of death (Ashes to Dust) and despair (Hymns for the Hopeless). Field Songs replaces that anger and gloom with a sense of peace, trading angst for a content unity with nature and the farm.

The person with the heavy indian accent told me that they are calling from Windows.
Last year I had a heart attack & I am supposed to avoid stress as much as possible.
Nobody there!!!
Didn't really leave a message. Just said 'Hello'. Heard alot of voices in the background, though.
They always tell me they have something for me. I ask them who they are but they will not say. I have verbaly told them I am on the "do not call registry" and to remove my number from their call list and then they hang up on me. I have received calls on my cellphone from this number.
If you call it back it's a recording for charter communications.
Called and when I answered it took about 20 seconds and it started ringing. I was running late as is, and figured if they can't put a real person to call me they didn't wanna talk to me that bad.

You could test the day of your expected period. If you get a negative, but don't have your period in the next few days, test again (sometimes, if implantation occurs later, the test may not detect enough hCG to read positive the day you're suppose to get your period).posted 11/21/2012 by Tiffybaby123

(AUGUSTA, GA. – Dec. 31, 2009) Early diagnosis of breast cancer greatly increases the chance of survival, which makes screening mammograms so important in the fight against the disease.
Tracy Walsh knows this all too well.
"My breast cancer was caught by a routine mammogram, and without that, who knows how long the cancer would have been inside me undetected," she said.
Tracy's cancer would not have been found by a breast self examination, but the routine mammogram was able to pinpoint its location early enough for surgeons to operate.
Randy Cooper, M.D., a surgeon who practices at University Hospital, believes that early diagnosis is the way to go, despite new federal guidelines that recommend women to wait till they are 50 before beginning annual mammograms. Dr. Cooper's recommendations have not changed, and he said he "stands by the original recommendations that women check their breast once a month, go see their doctor once a year and have a mammogram annually."

Greinke goes on DL
Former Cy Young winner will miss start to season
Wednesday, March 9, 2011
PHOENIX (AP) — Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Zack Greinke is likely to begin the season on the disabled list because of a fractured right rib he injured while playing pickup basketball in the offseason.
The former AL Cy Young winner is expected to be out two to four weeks. Initial Xrays were negative, but an MRI exam Monday revealed a hairline fracture in one rib and a bruise in a second.
Greinke, traded from Kansas City to Milwaukee in the winter, said he was hurt when he went up for a rebound and fell on his side.
"Everyone always told me not to do it because I was going to get hurt," Greinke said. "It finally caught up to me."
The Brewers open the season March 31 in Cincinnati.
"I'm feeling good but it's not worth it," Greinke said. "Hopefully it won't be too long. I don't want to miss any time with the team, especially at the beginning. Until it heals there's nothing you really can do. You just need to let it heal."
Greinke had made two starts this spring, the latest Sunday when he allowed a run on five hits in two innings against Texas. Overall, the right-hander gave up one run on six hits with three walks and three strikeouts in 3 1 /3 innings.
Milwaukee got Greinke as it tries to load up for a run at its first NL Central title. He won the 2009 AL Cy Young award with Kansas City, going 16-8 with a 2.16 ERA and 242 strikeouts.
He struggled in 2010, finishing 10-14 with a 4.17 ERA before being dealt to Milwaukee along with Yuniesky Betancourt for a package of four prospects.

The observations and conclusions reported here represent the work of an international committee of North American, European, and Australasian pathologists, organized under the auspices of the College of American Pathologists and the Pulmonary Pathology Society. This article updates the previous guidelines for the histologic diagnosis of asbestosis and its distinction from other pulmonary fibrotic disorders1 and is intended to be used as a basis for communication between pathologists, pulmonologists, oncologists, radiologists, occupational hygienists, and epidemiologists. The aim of this new edition is to define the morphologic features of asbestosis at its various stages, relate exposure levels to specific tissue reactions, and evaluate the grading scheme published in the first report. Although these guidelines primarily focus on pathologic diagnosis and risk assessment, clinical and radiologic presentations are also included. Epidemiology is considered, and techniques for the assessment of asbestos fiber burden are evaluated.
The initial guidelines also dealt with mesothelioma, lung cancer, and benign, asbestos-related pleural diseases, but attention here is confined to asbestosis and disorders with which it may be confused.
The use of asbestos dates back to preclassic times, at least 5000 years. The heat resistance and tensile strength of asbestos were used by ancient Cypriot civilizations to manufacture clothes, whereas, in Finland, archaeologic remains have identified ceramics containing anthophyllite asbestos. The early Greeks used asbestos in lamp wicks, and the Romans incorporated asbestos in cremation clothes.
The hazardous health effects of asbestos were, to our knowledge, first recorded by the Greek geographer Strabo (in Geographia, book 10), reporting on a lung disorder among slaves weaving asbestos cloth. Large-scale industrial exploitation of asbestos began in the 1870s, and in 1898, attention was drawn to "injury to the bronchial tubes and lung" among asbestos-carding, silk-operating, and hemp-spinning [workers,.sup. (2) (p171)] although at the time, the prevailing view was that asbestos was inert in human tissue. The first detailed account of death from asbestosis appeared in 1907, (3) and thereafter, a series of reports described a chronic lung disease in asbestos workers that was neither tuberculosis nor silicosis. In 1917, the radiologic features of this disease were first described, (4) and in 1927, the term pulmonary asbestosis was introduced. (5) In 1930, a landmark epidemiologic study of asbestos textile workers showed a high incidence of lung fibrosis that correlated with exposure intensity and duration. (6) With the recognition of the health hazards came a requirement for governmental regulatory control of asbestos dust in the workplace, which resulted in dust-suppressive measures being introduced in the United Kingdom in 1933.
Until the 1930s, measurements of airborne dust were rare, and hygiene equipment was limited to counting fibrous particulates. In 1922 and 1937, the impinger and the midget impinger were introduced, respectively, in the United States, expressing particle concentrations of millions of particles per cubic foot. Thermal precipitators were the preferred early hygiene tools in the United Kingdom, as was the konimeter, in South Africa. The aim was to control and monitor dust levels in the workplace. Epidemiologists have subsequently used such hygiene measurements to evaluate asbestos exposure in risk analyses.
By the 1930s, there were anecdotal case reports of lung cancer complicating asbestosis, (7-9) but the association between lung cancer and asbestosis was not fully established until 1949, when lung cancer was reported in 13% of 235 men dying with asbestosis, compared with 1.2% of 6884 men dying with silicosis. (10) In 1951, a histologic survey of 1205 industrial postmortems found that 14% of the 121 asbestosis cases were accompanied by primary lung cancer. (11) In 1955, 2 further publications provided irrefutable evidence of the association between lung cancer and asbestosis. The first was a case-control study performed in 11 Californian hospitals, (12) and the second, a retrospective cohort mortality study of asbestos textile workers in the United Kingdom. (13) The latter found an 11-fold increase in lung cancer among long-term workers, all of whom had concomitant asbestosis.
Reports of pleural cancer in persons with asbestosis date from the 1940s and were substantiated by a report of 33 cases of diffuse pleural mesothelioma in a crocidolite mining area of South Africa in 1960, (14) at a time when the very existence of malignant mesothelioma was still controversial. The diagnosis of this tumor would remain problematic until the emergence of immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy in the 1970s.
Methodology for workplace dust monitoring had evolved since its introduction in the first part of the 1920s. In 1965, the modern membrane-filter method and a standardized approach to fiber counting were introduced. Fibers were interpreted as all structures with a length to diameter ratio of 3:1 or more (an arbitrary figure accepted by the Asbestosis Research Council). Pathogenic and respirable fibers were deemed to be those greater than 5 [micro]m long and less than 3 [micro]m in diameter. Fibers with these dimensions became known as regulated fibers or World Health Organization fibers. They were assessed by light microscopy, which meant that only fibers greater than 0.25 [micro]m in diameter were visualized (irrespective of fiber length). Thus, regulated fibers represent only a small proportion of those in a dust cloud. Furthermore, light microscopic methods do not permit an accurate distinction of asbestos from nonasbestos fibers (ie, qualitative data are not possible). To make that distinction would require energy-dispersive x-ray analysis and selected-area electron diffraction, techniques that only later became available.
In a series of landmark studies in the United States and Germany, researchers drew attention to the importance of fiber length in relation to mesothelioma induction in animals. (15-20) The investigators concluded that the induction of mesothelioma was determined primarily by the physical dimensions of the fibers, the most dangerous being those greater than 8 [micro]mm in length and less than 0.25 [micro]m in diameter. Long fibers were recognized to be more tumorigenic than short fibers. This led to the suggestion that other nonasbestos fibers of similar fiber dimensions might be just as hazardous as asbestos, an hypothesis that was subsequently supported by reports of erionite-induced mesothelioma in Turkey (21) and animal experiments showing lung fibrosis and mesothelioma induction following erionite inhalation. (22) On a dose per dose basis, erionite and amphiboles appeared to be equally potent.
In the 1970s, a number of epidemiologic studies were undertaken to determine the risk of disease after asbestos exposure, culminating in a state of the art document entitled Biological Effects of Mineral Fibres. (23) By the end of the decade, there was firm epidemiologic evidence that asbestos-induced disease related to fiber type as well as to cumulative asbestos dose. Chrysotile appeared to be less fibrogenic and far less tumorigenic than the commercial amphiboles crocidolite and amosite.
Since 1980, there has been considerable investment in the epidemiologic analysis of various asbestos-exposed cohorts to determine, in particular, exposure-response data for asbestosis. This was greatly facilitated by the 1980 International Labour Office system for the radiologic classification of pneumoconiosis (24) and the emergence of sophisticated electron microscopic analytical methods, which allowed more accurate assessment of fiber burden, fiber size, and fiber type.
A number of pathologic definitions of asbestosis exist, and pathologists have not applied them uniformly. During the past 25 years, 2 comprehensive descriptions of the pathologic characteristics of asbestosis have emerged. The Pneumoconiosis Committee of the College of American Pathologists and the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health provided the first such description in 1982. (1) Their document set forth the proposed minimum histologic criteria for asbestosis and formulated a grading scheme for lung fibrosis. The minimum criteria necessary for a diagnosis of asbestosis were the finding of "discrete foci of fibrosis in the walls of respiratory bronchioles associated with accumulations of asbestos bodies" in histologic sections. Although the essential requirement for asbestosis is the presence of diffuse interstitial fibrosis in association with asbestos bodies, several outstanding issues exist and these problems still bedevil discussions on this topic. These issues concern the minimum number of asbestos bodies necessary and the degree of fibrosis required to enable the pathologist to diagnose asbestosis with confidence. The College of American Pathologists-National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health criteria did not specify the minimum number of asbestos bodies required, despite an inherent understanding that the definition phrasing implies more than one asbestos body. Unfortunately, there was no reference to the required asbestos body number per lung sectional area examined.
The grading scheme for fibrosis (asbestosis) was not universally accepted. Most notably, Churg and coworkers (25) sought to highlight that the disease process asbestosis required "diffuse" interstitial fibrosis and that this condition was distinct and different from small airways mineral-dust disease, where multifocal peribronchiolar fibrosis may be seen after the inhalation of a variety of mineral dusts, including asbestos, silicates, metal oxides, and coal. Similar changes may be seen commonly in the lungs of tobacco smokers. (26) It was recognized that the determination of early/minimal asbestosis in current or ex-smokers would be highly problematic, with potential for misclassification of cases.
A number of key publications emerged in the 1980s. With respect to the pathologic diagnosis of asbestosis, Roggli and Pratt (27) noted that 2 asbestos bodies in a 4-[cm.sup.2], Perl-stained section correlated with a 10-fold increase of asbestos bodies greater than the upper limit for a control reference population. In a series of accepted asbestosis cases studied by Roggli et al, (28) the authors reported more than 5 asbestos bodies per 1 [cm.sup.2] in 95% of cases, and more than 2 asbestos bodies per 1 [cm.sup.2] of lung sectional area in 100% of cases. In iron-stained sections, 2 asbestos bodies in a 2- X 2-[cm.sup.2] section corresponded to approximately 2000 asbestos bodies per gram of dry lung tissue on light microscopy. (29) Because asbestos bodies and fibers were not evenly distributed, more than one section needs to be examined. That evidence was accepted by most authorities and served to underpin the later Helsinki definition of asbestosis (see below). (30)
In 1984, the Ontario Royal Commission heard evidence that the threshold cumulative dose of asbestos necessary for clinical manifestations of asbestosis was between 25 and 200 fibers/ml-yrs (fibers/ml X number of years) of cumulative exposure. In contrast, a no-effect threshold level of asbestos (less than which there was no subsequent risk) was not recognized for malignant mesothelioma. (31)
Also in the 1980s, the mineralogic study of lung tissue in humans and animals was expanded. The focus was now to correlate disease with respirable (ie, inhaled, deposited, and retained) fiber counts at the site of tissue injury and to characterize the retained particulates. Various workers sought to study lung material from published cohorts. Lung fibrosis showed a dose-response relationship with retained amphibole asbestos, but not with chrysotile. Malignant mesothelioma incidence in Canadian chrysotile miners correlated with the contaminant amphibole tremolite, but did not correlate with chrysotile. (32) It emerged that amphiboles are far more potent in the induction of asbestosis, lung cancer, and malignant mesothelioma than chrysotile. Meta-analyses have estimated that, for mesothelioma induction, the risk differential on a fiber per fiber basis is 1:1, 100:1, and 500:1 for chrysotile, amosite, and crocidolite, respectively. For lung cancer, estimates indicate a risk differential of 1:10 to 1:50 for chrysotile and commercial amphiboles, respectively. (33)
In 1997, 19 participants from 8 countries met in Finland to discuss the diversity of asbestos-induced disorders, from which arose the so-called Helsinki Criteria for the definition of asbestosis. (30) The criteria required diffuse interstitial fibrosis and either 2 or more asbestos bodies within a section area of 1 [cm. …

New system puts patient at center of medical care
January 4, 2012
By 1st Lt. Ashley Gray, Moncrief Army Community Hospital
FORT JACKSON, S.C. -- What is the new Patient Caring Touch System and why is PCTS important? Why would people care about what it is? Those are questions I was recently asked by Col. John A. Nerges, my deputy commander for nursing.
I thought about it and came to the conclusion that our beneficiaries and the people to whom we give care are the reason for the PCTS. This system will improve the lives of those entrusted to our care by creating a new standard of care. By using the PCTS, the patient is the driving force, as the doctors and nurses work together to make sure that patient receives the best care.
The vision of the PCTS is to provide efficient and cost-effective health care that makes a difference in a time of dwindling resources. PCTS is a resource that will guide the health care team in providing the best possible care to our patients, who deserve it. It provides us, the Army Nurse Corps, with a way to gauge our performance and ensure we are on track and to help us to assess how care should be provided.
PCTS is built on the core values which take us as a Nurse Corps back to the basics -- how to provide our patients with amazing care. The Army Nursing Creed defines who we are, and PCTS is how we do it. In maintaining a positive and caring culture, we are able to provide exceptional care and foster the growth of our newest team members.
With PCTS, we will proudly care for all of our patients as a team, providing compassionate and proficient care for physical and psychological wounds of our Warriors.
PCTS care teams will empower patients to be active participants in their care, providing them with the opportunity to tell the providers and nurses what they expect and what they need from them. These teams will help establish consistent care and effective communication between patients, families and their team.
This system allows team members to develop professionally. It increases awareness of and attention to nursing competence by promoting nursing accountability and responsibility.
Optimized performance includes consistent data collection and reporting of different spectrums of care and tracking quality outcomes, business practices and patient/nurse satisfaction. Skill building will enhance the quality of care and the professional development of nursing staff. Shared accountability gives the nursing team voice and ability to improve the way they give care.
PCTS is represented by a five-point star with the patient at the center block. The PCTS is the perfect way to symbolize how the Army gives five-star care to its beneficiaries, who deserve nothing but the best.
Lastly, it will keep us grounded in our Army Values, the Warrior Ethos, and the Army Nurse Corps Creed.

Anyone who suffers from panic attacks should look into Tai Chi. Focusing on the movements and the way you are holding your body can help occupy your mind, which will prevent any bad thoughts from popping up. Practicing these movements can rapidly ease your stress and may help avoid your panic attacks. Talking with a mental health professional, such as a counselor or life coach, can also help relieve anxiety. You can find one that specializes in the treatment of panic and anxiety disorders. They can be of great help. Just having the realization that someone is comforting you can make you feel better and decrease your panic attacks. Write down your knowledge of dealing with panic attacks to share with others. A blog is a great way to share your experiences with others that can empathize. All of this can help you beat those panic attacks once and for all. If you are more social, it could lead to a reduction in panic attacks. Volunteer work with seniors and/or children is great. Kids can be really fun and seniors really appreciate having me around. Volunteering to help others will make you feel better inside and out, and that's the best combatant for anxiety. One method for reducing anxiety and preventing panic is to take deep breaths when you feel an attack coming on. Take 10 deep breaths, filling your lungs with as much air as you can each time. Mentally count each time you inhale and exhale. Doing this brings much needed oxygen to the brain, but also allows your mind to focus on more than just the negative, anxious feelings.
Get past a panic attack by speaking positively to yourself and thinking calming thoughts. It is important to remember that it will eventually go away. Tell yourself that you know you can stay in control.
Going to the doctor and getting a diagnosis for your panic attacks will help you begin getting treatment for them. Many people do have anxiety but the causes can be varied, and therefore the strategies will be different for each. Seek professional help when you find your panic attacks are becoming uncontrollable. Solicit help from others who understand your condition. When suffering with the paralyzing problem of panic attacks, having people you can turn to is often the only thing that can help you get through them. Your friends want to be there for you, all you have to do is ask. You should speak to your child as soon as they start having a panic attack. Something big could being going on with them and these attacks might be coming from the fact that they cannot express what is wrong. It is important to talk to your child openly and honestly.
When panic attacks start to be coupled with obsessive behaviors, like having to turn off a light three times to ensure that your child doesn't die, it's time to seek professional help. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder affects millions of people and can be treated, but you have to get help as the first step to the cure. Ask your doctor or research online to find support groups for panic attack sufferers. By visiting one of these groups, you can find out others' solutions to their anxiety, and you can also have a place to vent your emotions.
If you let the symptoms of your panic attack overwhelm you as they're occurring, it will only increase the severity of the attack. Relaxing can prevent your symptoms from controlling how you feel. Try and imagine or visualize the sensations flowing around your body, rather than physically through it. Breathing is important. Draw in slow, deep breaths at an even rate while also beginning to relax. As you relax, the adrenaline rush will dissipate. An online support group for those who suffer from panic disorders could be a benefit. This can infuse you with ideas that others have tried and found helpful, give you a place to vent your feelings and most importantly, show you that you are not alone in facing serious anxiety issues. Experiencing panic attacks does not doom you to failure. Just don't give up if a panic attack gets the better of you. Keep trying one technique after another until you find the key to defeating panic attacks.
If you commonly have panic attacks, chances are you don't want to be alone. The more you are around upbeat people you can talk to, the less you will have to deal with things alone. You will want to make certain you stay connected with all your family and friends. One tip for calming panic symptoms, like racing thoughts, is the acceptance of your feelings, including any bad ones. These feelings will not hurt you and may benefit you in identifying the causes of your root anxiety. If you can learn to accept your thoughts, you'll have learned a lot about yourself in the process.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo - "This is about workers in general, all workers - low-wage workers and union workers. This is about rewarding hard work that directly impacts the entire community and our economy," Clark Brown, a representative from the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), told the People's World here on February 23.
Brown, other SEIU members, and members of Missouri Jobs with Justice (JWJ) were lobbying Missouri legislators against HB 61 and SB 110, which would "prohibit the state minimum wage from exceeding the federal minimum wage."
To Brown, standing up for all workers is "part of our agenda, part of the labor movements' agenda."
In 2006 Missouri voters voted overwhelmingly to increase the state minimum wage, including an annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA). Currently, nine other states have minimum wages that are tied to cost-of-living increases.
In fact, over 76 percent of Missourians voted in favor of the Increase - the highest approval of any minimum wage increase in the country - and every county in Missouri voted in favor of the initiative by at least a margin of 16 points.
The current minimum wage in Missouri is $7.25 per hour or $15,080 annually. The poverty level for a family of three in Missouri in 2010 was $18,310. It is estimated that 54,750 people work for the minimum wage in Missouri; of which 72 percent are adults 20 or older.
According to Brown, "everybody benefits from an increase in the minimum wage, through increased spending and an increased tax base, which means increased revenue for the state."
Additionally, a higher minimum wage "drives up our union contract wages," Brown added. "We want to bring up the bottom."
JWJ activist Charlie Edelen highlighted the Republicans hypocrisy, saying, "We are holding up the will of Missouri voters. We are protecting our state's worst-paid workers."
Missouri Republicans currently have majorities in both the House and Senate. They claim that the cost-of-living adjustment will drive away business, while ignoring the will of voters.
"COLA will have a negligible impact on business," Edelen added. "Businesses won't leave Missouri because the minimum wage is 20 cents higher."
Edelen continued, "Gas, groceries, rent - it all goes up. The cost-of-living adjustment keeps low-wage workers from falling further and further behind."
As JWJ activists and union members roamed the Capitol scheduling meetings with their representatives or just "pulling them off the floor" the fight-back mood was evident, as activists and representatives alike talked about the protests in the Wisconsin state capital.
State Representative Clem Smith (D-71), a former autoworker and current machinist, told the People's World, "We need to do what they are doing in Wisconsin here! So-called right-to-work legislation, the attempt to repeal child labor laws, English-only provisions and attacks on our minimum wage! They have gone too far. We have to stop them."
Brown added, "The right-wing extremists did not expect this kind of fightback. It is an amazing display of collective power and solidarity of all workers."
He concluded by saying the protests in Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana "send a clear message to right-wing legislatures everywhere."
Members of the Missouri State Workers' Union (CWA 6355), United Food and Commercial Workers union (UFCW) Local 655, and the Missouri Immigrant and Refugee Advocates Coalition (MIRA) also lobbied.

This is a great motel, very clean and tidy, quiet location but only a short walk to the pub for dinner, and at very reasonable rates. We use it regularly and have always been pleased with the rooms, pool is good on a hot day and friendly service.
A group of flyers have stayed here on several occasions over the past few years, and Lynton and Sandra keep on improving their service. What incredible friendly and helpful hosts. As usual Lynton picked the group up from the airfield ( approx 4kms away) and during our 2 day stay managed to get people back and forth as requested. The rooms are spotlessly clean, comfortable and have a an outside area where a small group as ours can relax. Breakfasts delivered with a smile include the best poached eggs we have had in a motel; warm, soft and tasty. Short walk to hotels, restaurants and coffee shops: highly recommend.
We have just returned from a wonderful stay at this property. Hosts Sandra & Lynton were most accommodating and helpful. Will definately stay there again.

With the plan to play every second night for the next four months, a few things will be very difficult for teams to manage this year, and the relative advantages of the way different teams have been built will be amplified. Here's a few that have got my attention.
No practice time - Following a very short camp, coaches will have almost no time at all to develop systems and create chemistry during the season. Sounds like an advantage for a team that has played together for years under the same coach. It will also be that much more difficult to turn around slides and bad habits or integrate young players. This will be hardest on coaches new to their teams. I also wonder if this may be a year where talent has a bigger impact than usual (i.e. you can't cover with system play).
No rest for the... - Will older teams have a harder time? Depth will also be essential in two ways: you can't play your top 6/top 4 into the ground or you'll burn them out by March, and you better have some capable fill-ins because even short term injuries could have a huge impact on your playoff chances. The Bruins should be helped by the amount of time Julien can give to his bottom six forwards, but even Chara will wear down playing 30 min every two nights and they could be vulnerable if they have to ask too much of McQuaid, Johnson, Hamilton and whoever else rounds out the top 7 D. And there isnt' much to call up from Providence in case of injuries.
2013-14 - This is going to have more than one year of impact as the Cup will likely be awarded the latest it has ever been even with a further compressed playoffs. This offseason is looking like it may be more active than any in recent memory with buyouts and a shrinking cap (first time this has ever happened a season after the CBA). Teams that play late into the playoffs will have a very short period to recover from a very intense grind.

India's largest car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki unveiled its multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) Ertiga. Already a leader in small car segment, Maruti aims to establish its presence in other segments with the launch of Ertiga.
Ertiga is a compact seven seater MPV that's expected to hit the markets in April. Company has not made any comments on price and variants of this car yet.
Under the hood, the Ertiga will be powered by a new K14 petrol and a super turbo DDiS diesel engine. The K14 engine develops 94PS of power at 6000rpm and 130Nm of torque at 4000rpm. DDiS is a1.3 Litre engine producing 88PS of power and 200Nm of torque.
The MPV is believed to deliver an impressive fuel consumption figures of 20.77 km per litre in the diesel engine and 16.02 km per litre in the petrol.
India's second largest automaker Hyundai also entered the MPV segment with Hexa Space which is set to roll out in February and will directly compete with the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga.

I'm having a problem finding which compiler can support Windows7 for C or C++ programming. I had installed Turbo but it does not work in full screen on Windows 7. Please let me know which compiler will be appropriate.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express, which is free.
GCC from either MinGW or Cygwin should work fine under Windows 7.
You can get Turbo C working on Windows 7 with DOSBox. Some of the applications where I work were made in-house years ago, and only work on operating systems that support full screen DOS applications, which means anything prior to Windows Vista. Since deploying Windows XP on new systems was not an option, I did a little brainstorming and DOSBox came to mind, which of course worked beautifully.
Turbo C is very old however and there are better compilers out there now such as GCC which you can use on Windows via MinGW. Code::Blocks is a great IDE which gives you the option of an installer bundled with MinGW as your compiler, an awesome freeware combination.
And as already mentioned, there is also Microsoft's development environment, Visual C++.
C-Free is also a Nice one u can go for it
You can try Qt Creator. As a bonus you'll get whole Qt, which is platform independent C++ GUI library.
lcc-win32 is a free compiler for Windows.
use Gcc with CodeBlocks, this is the best solution for C programming in Windows 7/8/Vista
Get it from here. http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/26
But if you want to run Turbo C, you can do it via Dos Emulator DOS-Box (as answered by Chaitanya)
However I will strongly recommend to use Code Blocks
You may need to switch Turbo C with DOS-Box, if you have to use graphics.h Libraries (which I found easier, compared to CodeBlocks)

Everyday training boots offer simple protection.
Neoprene boots with Velcro closures that are ideal for training. The Neoprene is perforated to enhance airflow and ventilation. These boots are simple to put on and have the look of a bandage without the fuss.
Neoprene. Sold in pairs.
Machine wash, cold or warm water. Close Velcro prior to washing. Air dry.
I bought a pair for my pony and my arab both fit perfect and look awesome. As nice as some of the 70-80 dollar boots. Ive only had them for a couple weeks but so far I love them!Written on by Anonymous
The first thing I don't like about these boots is that there is SO much velcro. It takes my 5 minutes just to get the velcro off! Also they aren't very breathable, so I usually end up taking off of my pony before we canter or else her legs get hot. However for this price I guess they're alright.Written on by Anonymous
I have a trekking yard in Cyprus and have tried all sorts of boots - these are the ones I have come back to - only two straps but hold in position and the straps haven't broken like the other boots with 4 straps - they give good protection under the ergot and looking at the knocks on the boots, they have saved many injuries. About to order some more!Written on by Ride in Cyprus . com
Love this product! Have the smart look of bandage wraps, but without taking nearly as much time to put on and off! My pony loves them too!Written on by Martha Hudson

The leader of a 300-mile trek from Raleigh to the coast and back is confident legislation to abolish North Carolina's death penalty will be heard one day at the General Assembly.
Ten members of the group Sojourners for Abolition and Reconciliation completed the last leg of the 16-day walking trip Tuesday morning by traveling to the Legislative Building.
Organizer Scott Bass was the only person who walked the entire trip. He says the pilgrimage raised awareness about the death penalty as well as about the family members of both murder victims and perpetrators.
The Legislature isn't considering bills to eliminate the death penalty this year. Bass says lawmakers shouldn't wait until other states end capital punishment to take a stand on the issue.

Learning to Forget: The Anti-memoirs of Modernity
Oxford University Press, 2005 - Social Science - 258 pages
This project is written as a mission to separate the modern from the contemporaneous, to revisit the idea of modernity and to de-link it from superficial traits of westernization. Discussing the difference between modernization and westoxication, the book is a phenomenological treatment that is abstract and yet illustrative, when discussing issues such as affirmative action, citizenship, and development in India. This book argues that given the reality of mistaken modernity and the idealization of the past in many societies of the South, it is necessary to make the case for modernity as uncompromisingly as possible.
