Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) occurs when the wall of the aorta, the main artery in the abdomen, progressively weakens. This causes a dilatation of the aorta called an aneurysm. This aneurysm will grow and eventually rupture if not diagnosed and treated. Prior to rupture, no symptoms are typically associated with aneurysms. A strong family predominance for aneurysm increases the patient risk. Diagnosis is made by performing a10-15 minute ultrasound examination which will measure the size of the aorta.
Hypertension: Hypertension or high blood pressure is a common medical condition that has a variety of underlying causes. Renal artery stenosis is one such condition. Renal artery stenosis occurs when the vessels that supply blood to the kidneys develops a buildup of plaque most commonly caused by atherosclerosis. Typically patients with renal artery stenosis develop high blood pressure that is not controlled with medication. Diagnosis may be made by performing a 30 minute ultrasound examination of blood flow through the arteries to the kidneys.
CVA or Stroke: A CVA or Stroke may be caused by carotid artery sten.osis. Carotid artery stenosis occurs when the main blood vessels to the brain develop a buildup of plaque caused by atherosclerosis. When the buildup becomessevere it can cause a stroke. The process is similar to the plaque buildup that causes heart attacks. No symptoms are typically associated with carotid stenosis prior to the onset of ministroke/stroke. Diagnosis is made by performing a 15-30 minute ultrasound examination that evaluates for the presence of plaque and measures the speed of the blood through the right and left carotid arteries.
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): Peripheral artery disease occurs when atherosclerosis causes a buildup of plaque in the blood vessels that carry oxygen and nutrients to the tissues of the lower extremities. Early on, PAD can cause difficult walking, but in severe cases it can cause painful foot ulcers, infections or gangrene which may result in amputation. The most common symptom associated with PAD is pain with walking that subsides with rest. Diagnosis typically made by performing a 30-45 minute doppler examination that compares the pressure in four segments of the leg to the arm, commonly known as a Ankle- Brachial Index (AB1).
Varicose Veins: Varicose Veins are the result of a condition known as venous reflux. Venous reflux occurs when the valves of the lower extremities do not function properly. Veins of the lower extremities are designed to carry the bloodfrom the feet back to the heart. In the leg, blood has to flow upward, against gravity. Therefore, the veins of the lower extremities are equipped with one-way valves that prevent blood from flowing backwards. When these valves fail toclose tightly, the blood flows in both directions, allowing blood to pool resulting in varicose veins. Symptoms include pain and heaviness of the affected limb.
Vascular Screening Program: The Parkersburg Vascular Laboratory offers once a month low cost vascular screenings of the aorta, carotids, and lower extremity arterial circulation_ This screening is performed on the second Friday of themonth. The cost of the screening is $70. Lab work is available for an additional fee. This program is not covered by medical insurance. Therefore, the screening fee is due at the time of examination. Patients are given the ultrasound remits on the day of the exam with a copy faxed to the provider of choice. Lab work is mailed to the patient at a later time. This service is an excellent opportunity for patients who either do not have insurance or are at high risk for vascular disease to be evaluated.

Usually when somebody tells you that you're about to watch a movie with a political or social agenda, you prepare yourself for a gut wrenching documentary or some heavy dramatic material. But what you might not expect is a horror movie about a small town gone berserk -- and that's exactly what Participant Media is counting on. In an article in the New York Times, Participant's President *(and former president of eBay) Ricky Strauss spoke about the companies plan to make the world a better place through releasing what the NYT called, " profitable cinema with a social-action impulse" -- and first up is the George A. Romero remake, The Crazies, which Participant believes provides a solid environmental message about water quality ... and how best to bludgeon your neighbors should the need arise.
Participant has released other 'politically-minded' narrative films in the past (including Good Night, and Good Luck and The Kite Runner), but The Crazies marks a new direction for Participant, because this time the politics aren't exactly front and center. According to Strauss, "...our movies also need to be entertaining, so as many people as possible are inspired by the issues and themes, and they can go out and make a difference." So even though The Crazies is Participant's first attempt to entertain and educate, it won't be their last, and up next will be another environmental tale (but this time instead of tainted water, it will be deforestation), Furry Vengeance. I guess like Ms. Poppins used to say, a spoonful of sugar really does help the medicine go down.
So while Participant might be one of the first movie studios looking to change the world as part of their business model, there have been plenty of films that have impacted the world beyond the box office, so take a look after the jump at five movies I think made the world a better place...
*Correction: Partipant's founder, Jefferey Skoll, was eBay's former head honcho.
Homophobia: Philadelphia (1993)
The legal drama starring Tom Hanks as a lawyer wrongfully fired for contracting AIDS introduced a generation to the idea of gay rights in America using the beloved everyman. Yes, the film is a little too even handed (in the hopes of not offending anyone, I guess) and the romance between Antonio Banderas and Hanks was a little -- how do I say this -- neutered, but by hiring Hanks as a gay man it ensured that everyone could relate; it made audiences look beyond their own prejudices about gay men and women, and most importantly how the AIDS crisis wasn't a gay problem, it was everyone's problem.
Racism: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967)
Stanley Kramer's film was released only 12 days after interracial marriage had been legalized in the Supreme Court, which makes the story of an upper class gal (played by Katharine Houghton) who brings her fiancée (played by Sidney Poitier) home to meet her parents timely to say the least. The film was Spencer Tracy's final performance, and introduced the subject of interracial marriage into dinner-table conversations across the country.
Politics: The Candidate (1972)
The Oscar-winning story about how TV transformed politics is as applicable today as it was back in 1972, and showed audiences what happens when you compromise your principles for a bigger voter share. Robert Redford stars in a script by Jeremy Larner (a speech-writer for McCarthy during his campaign for the '68 Democratic Presidential nomination) as an idealistic lawyer and unlikely candidate, Bill McKay, with Peter Boyle as a jaded 'election specialist'. It's a must see for any political junkie.
Poverty: The Grapes of Wrath (1940)
Hollywood in the 1940s was still well and truly a dream factory. The production code guaranteed that most of our endings were happy and that the good guys would win in the end. But, in the film adaptation of John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath, audiences were confronted with the very real problems facing their fellow Americans in the wake of the Depression, and rather than look away, audiences looked closer at the plight of the 'farming class' in their very own backyard.
Feminism: 9 to 5 (1980)
Bet you didn't see this one coming, but the 80s comedy starring Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, and Dolly Parton did the unthinkable: it made feminism fun. The story of three working women who get a little payback is a story rooted in ideals about equality but never did you feel like you were being beaten over the head with an ERA pamphlet -- probably because you were too busy having a good time. Too often, when we hear the dreaded f-word, fun goes right out the window. Well not in this movie, and if Dolly has taught me (as well an entire generation of girls) anything over the years, it's that we can be a stand up gal and a sex kitten all at the same time.

The Vampire Diaries
The Vampire Diaries Recap: Season 5, Episode 9 — Stefan and Katherine Kiss!
Damon has been hiding some pretty big skeletons in his closet, and in Season 5, Episode 9 ("The Cell"), they all came pouring out.
Now that The Vampire Diaries has ditched the doppelganger drama, we're finally seeing some much-needed character development from our favorite vamps. Damon has always been a dark and broody figure in Mystic Falls, but "The Cell" shed some light on the snarky vampire.
For five years Damon was Dr. Whitmore's lab rat. Upon his return to Mystic Falls in 1953, he was poisoned with vervain and taken by the psycho doc. There, he is physically tortured and experimented on by Dr. Whitmore, whose disgusting brand of "research" includes cutting out parts of Damon's eyes and other vital organs. His goal was to study how vampires cure themselves — and how their blood can cure others. [And this is where I started to actually feel bad for Damon.]
But Damon wasn't alone. His only confidante was another one of Whitmore's test subjects, Enzo, a European vamps captured from the frontlines during World World II and taken to Whitmore. Enzo's friendship was the only thing that kept Damon alive in that cell.
Eventually, the two conspired to escape Whitmore's dungeon. It seems that they were taken out of their cells once a year to attend a Whitmore Christmas party, where the crazy doc would parade his experiments around and demonstrate how their blood has healing properties. Enzo decides that if one of them were to sacrifice his blood rations to the other for an entire year, that vampire would be strong enough to kill everyone at next year's Christmas party. So after a crushing game of rock, paper, scissors, Enzo gives his ration of blood to Damon for one year, and at the Whitmore Christmas party in 1958, he's strong enough to escape.
In true Damon Salvatore style, he kills Dr. Whitmore and every Augustine member at the party — he even sets Whitmore House ablaze. But sadly, he's unable to break Enzo out of the vervain-laced cage. Instead of trying to set his friend free, he flips his humanity switch and leaves him there to burn. This would explain why Damon was such a d-bag when we met him back in Season 1. He couldn't deal with the fact he killed his best friend, so he got rid of all emotion, and he didn't want to make Stefan feel sorry for him, so he never told his brother — or anyone — about his past as an Augustine vampire. [Funny how it took FIVE SEASONS to get to this story… take that Caroline!]
But that wasn't all Damon was hiding. It turns out Damon and Elena's summer of love wasn't all playful picnics and steamy hookups — somewhere in between the butterfly kisses and the "I love yous," Damon went on Whitmore family killing sprees. Five years of physical and mental torture at Whitmore College pushed Damon over the edge, and he swore that he would get his revenge on the Whitmore family by killing everyone in the family's bloodline — except for one, so he could carry on the name, and Damon could kill the next generation of Whitmores.
Now, this wouldn't seem like the biggest deal (vampires kill humans, amirite?) if Aaron wasn't a Whitmore! That's right: Aaron's full name is Aaron Whitmore — oh, daaaaamn — and Damon is the one who killed his parents. Now imagine poor Aaron's shock after realizing Damon is the reason you don't have any family left — we probably would have shot him in the head too, Aaron.
Elena, on the other hand, doesn't know what to think. Aaron unknowingly led her into a trap, and she was also taken by Dr. Wes. But after Damon dropped a few truth bombs on her, she's more confused than ever. Damon was still killing Whitmores when they were together, which means he was lying to her. Come on, Damon! This is Relationships 101. However, Elena doesn't have time to process the news because by the time Aaron shoots him in the head, she's taken by Dr. Wes and strapped to his lab table… next to ENZO!
While I wasn't surprised to see Enzo alive, I was shocked to see how deranged he had become. I guess over 70 years of torture can turn even the toughest vampire a little cuckoo. Clearly, Enzo was the one who killed Meghan. I'm intrigued to see how his inevitable reunion with Damon goes — will he remember his former friend, or will he want to rip his heart out?
But Damon wasn't the only Salvatore dealing with his issues this week. In an effort to forget about his own emotional scars, Stefan encourages Katherine to enter her feelings into a diary. Katherine, being Katherine, isn't one for writing down her feels. She'd rather call you an idiot and call it a day. She also sees what kind of game Stefan is playing, so she calls in reinforcements: Caroline Forbes!
I had hoped there would be more interaction between Stefan and Caroline, but it looks like the writers had another ship in mind. In the end, it was Katherine's plan that broke Stefan out of his funk. It turns out Stefan was suppressing his heartbreak over Delena and deflecting it on his PTSD and Silas. Wow. As if we didn't see that one coming.
After a seriously awkward moment between Stefan, Katherine, and Caroline — in which Care Bear nearly catches the two making out in the safe — Stefan and Katherine meet up in the library… where there kiss. Stefan and Katherine kiss. It happens. And it's pretty great. Honestly, I never thought I'd be shipping Katherine and Stefan, but these two are the most compelling characters on The Vampire Diaries, so of course I ship it!
"What kind of sentimental idiot writes down everything they feel?" — Oh, Katherine, if you only knew.
"I'm your sober sponsor, and I heard that you needed help." — Caroline Forbes to the rescue!
"Don't worry. I sanitized it." — Of course you did, Caroline.
"You know, most people would buy me dinner first." — It's nice to see Damon hasn't lost his humor, even when being tortured.
"You're a vampire, she's a human… the relationship would have been doomed from the beginning." — How times have changed, Damon.
"Since 1958? I've lost count." — Typical Damon.
Catch the next episode of The Vampire Diaries on Thursday, December 5 at 8 p.m. ET on the CW, followed by an all-new episode of Reign.

The meaning of Always active
Posted by Reviewer3063157 on Oct 20, 2014
I have been using this product for a month but nothing ever happens to sooth my indigestion nor bloating. I start to believe it's just water inside the bottle. I sent an email to warren labs, I asked them the temperature used for removing the latex. Here is their answer! ............. The temperature used in our process is part of our trade secret, therefore, I am not privy to that information. Always Active refers to our George's Aloe liquid always doing what it is supposed to be doing. It has a shelf-life of 5 years and is always active ............. So, it's pasteurized... But I don't know to what degree...and how much more nutrients can be preserved. the Mucopolysaccarides in aloe will change from long chain to short chain, not as good as raw aloe when talking about immune boosting.

Cops kill another graf writer
On Tuesday night Jason Kitchekeg, a local graffiti artist who went under the name Sole, was running from police when he jumped into the river. The cops caught the other two artists they were chasing, but Kitchekeg wasn't so lucky. He was pulled from river later that night, and died at the hospital.
Naturally, most of the coverage of Kitchekeg's death reads the same way any story about a criminal killed by cops would. But he wasn't a criminal. He was an artist. If the cops hadn't been chasing Kitchekeg, he would most likely still be alive.
Michael Stewart. Jonathan See Lim. These are only some of the best-known examples of victims of the cops and the criminalization of graffiti. But there are plenty more, many of whom we may not even know about. The response of the newspapers is always the same: "if he hadn't been defacing public property then he wouldn't be dead."
That graffiti is even considered a crime, however, is ludicrous. It represents the sick double-bind that modern urban planning traps young people into. Jobs vanish, school budgets slashed, community centers shut down, entire blocks are left to rot. And when these kids who have nowhere to go start to make their own surroundings a more vibrant, hopeful and dynamic place, they are labeled hoodlums and gang members.
This is highlighted by the fact that the building Kitchekeg was tagging wasn't even occupied. It's a paint manufacturing plant that has sat idle for quite some time. There are no plans to tear it down, and no new renters are known at this point. It was sitting there rotting. And yet young people who take it upon themselves to brighten things up a bit are turned into common thugs by the cops.
Brian Lopez, a longtime friend of Kitchekeg made it clear: "He was painting an abandoned building. He wasn't hurting anyone. People think all graffiti is gang graffiti, but there's also graffiti art. That's what he did. For us, it's been a salvation. A lot of us have come from bad neighborhoods, and graffiti and hip-hop was something that was the opposite of that."

Omni La Mansion del Rio

i booked a room through hotwire. i was not given an actual bedroom but a pullout couch and a rollaway. we could hear people in the next room and people talking in the hallway
have stayed there regularly in past, location, quality and service the reason.
I really enjoyed this hotel. It was clean and located on the Riverwalk.
I loved the hotel.
The hotel was very nice and the location was fabulous but you can get a room of equal or better standards for a lot less. Would not stay again only because of the price.
nothing in particular
Prime location on Riverwalk, though hotel is in need of a 'facelift.'

P.J.'s Economics 101
Recorded: Thursday, October 29, 1998
With his numerous books, articles and essays about politics, war and social disorder under his belt, it was only a matter of time until P.J. O'Rourke found his way to the subject of his new book, "Eat the Rich." In "Parliament of Whores," he lampooned the entire U.S. government. "All the Troubles in the World" attacked the pandemic worries of the politically correct; and this time it's the economy, stupid! What is wealth and how do we get it? Or as he asks, "Why do some places prosper and thrive while others just stink?"
As most people (along with many "experts") try to fathom the volatility of financial markets and the complexities of global economies, the man who Time magazine has called "one of America's most hilarious and provocative writers" brings it all into perspective. Who else but P.J. could provide this primer on Wall Street: "In order to understand the stock market we have to realize that, like anything enormous and inert, it's fundamentally stable, and like anything emotion-driven, it's volatile as hell."
But he doesn't stop there. Embarking from Wall Street, P.J. takes us on a hilarious and enlightening worldwide tour of the foibles of governments from Russia to Tanzania, from Albania to Shanghai, and from Hong Kong to Havana, and revisits college economics courses, counteracting them with his own version of Econ 101.
The result is the world's only astute, comprehensive and comic presentation of the basic principles of economics that will truly make you laugh on purpose.

(AP) -- There's a chance Illinois won't find out who won the Republican nomination for governor this week.
The State Board of Elections meets Friday to certify results from the Feb. 2 primary and declare a winner in the close race.
But if either candidate seeks a recount, the process could drag on.
Unofficial results show Sen. Bill Brady with a lead of 420 votes over Sen. Kirk Dillard.
Seeking a recount isn't something candidates take lightly. It's expensive, complicated and rarely used.
Candidates have three options.

"The Yates County Office for the Aging's "Lunch to Learn" program is designed for elderly residents but a much younger group has learned a lot from it as well the past few months.
Students in Professor of Occupational Therapy Jean Wannall's Occupational Development in Older and Later Adult (OCC 353) class gained valuable hands-on experience by attending the weekly programs in Branchport.
"They learned a lot about what it is like to get older," said Wannall.
Much of the learning came through observation and that was valuable because the course places "particular emphasis on the occupational performance and occupational form of selected activities as they relate to overall health, wellness, and normal development."
Students were able to assess skill and function levels by observing people who, for example, had mobility issues or trouble opening milk cartons.
"They picked up things we talked about in class," explained Wannall.
Students were also forced to meet and interact with people who were strangers, and that is "good preparation for their clinical practice," according to Wannall.
By the time the students invited "Lunch to Learn" program participants to campus for a holiday celebration in December, the strangers had become friends. After lunch, the students and their guests sang Christmas carols.
"The seniors really enjoyed getting to know the students and learning about Keuka College," said Wannall.
Each student was required to maintain a "reflective" journal, according to Wannall. They also wrote articles on such subjects as nutrition, fall prevention, the importance of exercise, and traveling as an older person that will be published in the Office for the Aging newsletter.
The "Lunch to Learn" program will move from Branchport to the Bluff Point United Methodist Church next year and students in one of Professor of Occupational Therapy Carmela Battaglia's courses will take part during the spring semester.

Happy New Year, Everybody!
Hope you all had a great holiday season! The new year is here and i have pretty much the same new year's resolutions that most people have. And some art related ones.
One for sure is to be more prolific in my drawing and painting. My job as a sign artist at Trader Joe's has hindered me in the past, but i do much less art work there now and want to do work for me again.
I want to put up my own car art website this year. I am thinking of going with a place called Weebly to build the website. I wanted the perfect website with a gallery to show my car art, and even tried to learn to build one myself for a while there, but i am not going to get perfection. So i am going to see if Weebly works and put up what i can the best i can.
I want to be more active again on deviantART. Things get in the way, of course, but i need to be more selective with my time and spend more of it on me. And that means having contact with the people here.
And i want to start a blog about my spiritual journey...specifically as a student of A Course In Miracles. Just a daily post of where i am at the start of each day. Thinking of doing that on Facebook. It really does not matter if anyone reads it...i just want to make the commitment to doing it...putting my intentions into words...and putting those words out there.
As i said, hope you all had a great holiday season and are enjoying your New Year's Day! Get the most you can out of today, tomorrow, and this new year! Live and enjoy all of it!

The National Park Service says a California man has drowned after being caught in a rip current off a North Carolina beach.
The Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk reported that 50-year-old Keith M. Goldstein of San Francisco drowned Friday afternoon when he was caught in the dangerous surf off Mirlo Beach. Chief Ranger Paul Stevens of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore says Goldstein and two other people were caught in the surf. Stevens says a family member rescued the other two people, and another person pulled Goldstein from the water. He was pronounced dead at The Outer Banks Hospital.
Stevens says this was the sixth drowning at the seashore this year.

[ For the Chummer 5 thread, go HERE ]
Hi all,
I've been working on a character generator since late-December 2010 and have released it for all Runner to use.
I have two main goals for Chummer. The first is to be a standard character generator that lets you create a character with the BP and Karma systems, then maintain them throughout their career with Karma. The other is to give GMs a tool where they can create their NPCs and have all of the information they need in just one place (like weapon damage, armor ratings, etc.) without having to flip through a bunch of sourcebooks during game play (this really bugged me when I was running some of the SR4 missions).
By default, only content from the Shadowrun 4th Edition book is shown. To use content from other sourcebooks, select Tools > Options and select the books you would like to use. This was done in case there are Game Masters or players that want to limit their character options to only certain books. The sourcebook changes do not take effect until you load or create a new character - if you have one currently open when you make this change, it won't pick up the change until you save and reload it.
Chummer's data is all stored in XML and allows players and GMs to create their own Skills, Vehicles, Weapons, Qualities, and other goodies by creating custom XML data files. Full documentation on the data files can be found in the Chummer Wiki. Character sheets are also created using XSLT meaning that anyone can create their own custom character sheets with a little know-how.
This is a Windows application (Win XP/Vista/7) that requires Microsoft's .NET Framework 4 installed. Unfortunately it does not currently work with Mono, however, recent testing has shown that it should be fully functional with their next public release.
You can grab Chummer from http://www.chummergen.com/dev/chummer/Chummer.zip. This file will be kept up-to-date with each release as well for those who are just joining the party.
Please post any feedback, bug reports, and the like here.

lol. Yeah, it's amusing when something I was so reluctant to put in ends up being so useful. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
So everyone doesn't need to worry about creating custom files to suit their needs regarding this, I've quickly created 3 different ones. The override files just go in your Chummer\data directory. (just right-click and choose Save As...)

How long can my son and daughter share a room?
Our daughter is 2 years old, and I'm pregnant with our son. We live in a small house with only two bedrooms. We planned to have our little boy sleep in our room for the first six months and then share a bedroom with his sister. But some people have told me that siblings of the opposite sex shouldn't share a bedroom after the age of 2 or 3. Is this true?

I lived in a two bedroom house. My son and daughter are 18 months apart. They shared a room until this month. The only reason they are not sharing a room now is because we bought a larger house. I never had a problem with the children sharng a room.posted 01/10/2005 by becca1020
"I think it is great for siblings to share a room. My daughter is almost 5 and my son is almost 4 and with only 14 months between them they have shared a room since he was 6 months old! We only have two bedrooms in our home as well and were blessed with twins 2 years ago. Now they all share a room. They are so close that I have a hard time trying to seperate them. We have plans to build a new home to accomadate our family better, but that will have to wait until we buy a new car, baby #5 is due soon. She will be sleeping with us until breastfeeding is over! And to eliminate surprises I am having a tubal.posted 01/10/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
Hi,J.L.G. my name is jennifer and I have a 3 year old son that's about to be 4 years old and I'm about to have a girl and as for as your situation no it's not no problem cause my son and daughter gon share a room rather he like it or not. And forget what every body else say if they don't think that's right then tell them to get you a bigger house so your son can have his own room other then that they need to keep there mouth shut unless they gon move you into a bigger house. But my son and daughter going to share a room together and I don't care who likes it, if It's not no problem with my husband then it's no problem with me. So you do what you want to do.posted 01/10/2005 by JennynRon
My three daughters all share the same room!! We also live in a two bedroom house. We have had no problems!! We put the two older ones in bunk beds. And the youngest is still in her crib. Granted we don't know what we are going to do once the baby is ready for a regular bed!!! But will cross that bridge when the time comes. My girls ages are 4 1/2, 2 3/4, and 11 monthes. You know you could also put up a room divider!! But don't let what other people say affect your deceision. Some times you simple can't help the space issue!!posted 01/10/2005 by catlady1973a
I am in the same situation we only have a 2 bedroom home and my son just turned 3 and my daughter is 22 months and they share a bedroom and love it. I think that it really makes them share better. Luckily they are both very sound sleepers so we really haven't had any problems. I'm very glad that they share a room at least now. I agree that it's only a big deal if you make it cause it doesn't seem to be weird for the kids.posted 01/10/2005 by nolanandbrinleymom
Sharing a room with the opposite sex is not problematic but requires a little extra attention. My children are 22 months apart with my son being 3 and my daughter 1. The only thing that needs to be watched is touching and experimentation with each other when dressing. I have three children and my daughter(8)and son(3) clearly know that difference between male and female and are okay with it. Sharing a room actually has created a bond of protection and security between them. My older daughter still wants to room with them to this day. So relax and have fun with parenting. Most situations turn out fine as long as you remain attentive, proactive and reactive while enjoying your children.posted 01/10/2005 by N'Jeri
One suggestion I feel is smart is to definately wait as long as possible to put the baby in with the other child. We waited until he was at least sleeping through the night, so that our daughter wouldn't be as distracted in her sleeping.posted 01/10/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
There is nothing wrong with Siblings sharing rooms, especially those of an opposite sex. I can see if one kept the other one awake and what not where the problem would be. They're siblings and at that young they don't know any better and I can see where it would only be a problem if you make it a problem. I grew up in a large family where we all had to share rooms and I had to share a room with my brother and it didn't make a difference, we were just caught what was appropriate and what wasn't, but that wasn't until we were old enough to understand. Have them share and enjoy their time together while their young.posted 01/10/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
I don't think this would be inappropriate at all. My two children shared a room until my daughter was five and my son was four. We had no other space, and it was the best solution. The only problem I ever ran into was at naptime, when they both seemed to want to play, or one wanted to nap and the other wasn't sleepy at all. You can fix this by letting them take turns, letting one take a nap on your bed or the couch while the other gets to sleep in their bed. Don't listen to the negative comments. You love your children and you are providing them with the best you have. A lot of us have been there, and we all have great kids....I think my son and daughter are such great friends because they have had to live in such close quarters!posted 01/10/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
There is a law in my state that says a children of the opposite sex can not share a room past school age!! Check the laws where you live! It is a law for a reason, so follow it! My children (son 33 mths and daughter 15 mths share a room, and will until my son starts school.)posted 01/10/2005 by a BabyCenter Member

When it comes to making babies, everybody knows that a mother's lifestyle matters. During gestation, a mother's habits and nutritional status can have powerful effects on the way a baby develops. Folate, for instance, is so important for brain development and the prevention of birth defects that the U.S. Center for Disease Control recommends that every woman of child-bearing age get 400 micrograms of folate (also called "folic acid") each day. Establishing a history of good nutrition before conception helps ensure that a fetus has what it needs during the crucial, early weeks of pregnancy.
But what about fathers? Conventional wisdom suggests that men don't have to worry as much about their lifestyle choices. Sure, some things, like smoking, can have a negative impact: Exposure to second-hand smoke increases the risk of miscarriage and birth defects. But doctors haven't paid much attention to what fathers-to-be eat and drink. And that should change.
Take the latest study of folate deficiency in mice. Romain Lambrot and his colleagues bred a group of male mice with insufficient levels of dietary folic acid. Then they mated these males with healthy, nutritionally-replete females, and monitored the results.
Two things happened. First, there were fertility problems. The rate of pregnancy by folate-deficient males was only 52%, compared with 85% for normal males. Second, when babies were conceived, there were more birth defects.
"We were very surprised to see that there was an almost 30 per cent increase in birth defects in the litters sired by fathers whose levels of folates were insufficient," Lambrot says in this press release. "We saw some pretty severe skeletal abnormalities that included both cranio-facial and spinal deformities."
The photograph here, courtesy of Lambrot, shows some of these differences. The mouse pup on the left, sired by a folate-sufficient father, is developmentally normal. The pup on the right, sired by a folate-deficient dad, has skull abnormalities.
How is this possible? Until recent decades, scientists thought of the male contribution to fertilization in terms of DNA alone, so it was hard to see how something like paternal diet could influence prenatal development.
A male might alter the DNA in his sperm by exposing himself to harmful, mutagenic radiation, and the results could get passed onto offspring. Alternatively, a male could change the course of a pregnancy by exposing the mother to environmental toxins (like secondhand smoke) or subjecting her to stress and abuse. But barring those kinds of scenarios, it wasn't clear that male behavior — before or around the time of conception — could make much difference.
But now we know that DNA is often wrapped — quite literally — in molecules that have the power to switch genes on or off. These wrappers make up your "epigenome," a collection of chemical compounds that tell your genes what to do. And what's so interesting about the epigenome is that (1) it is influenced by environmental factors, including stress, diet, and drug use; and (2) it can get passed from parent to offspring.
So if folate, or a lack of folate, triggers changes in a man's epigenome, these changes might end up in the man's sperm and become part of the new baby's epigenome as well. In the mouse study, Lambrot's team analyzed sperm and confirmed that folate-deficient males showed epigenetic changes for a number of genes, including genes associated with brain development and various life-threatening diseases. But the researchers didn't find direct evidence that the babies' epigenomes were similarly altered. They think such evidence may emerge in future studies.
Meanwhile, it seems pretty clear that paternal folate deficiency resulted in a higher rate of birth defects, and the researchers think this should be a warning call for human fathers-to-be. "Our research suggests that fathers need to think about what they put in their mouths, what they smoke and what they drink and remember they are caretakers of generations to come," says study coauthor Sarah Kimmins. Indeed, new discoveries in epigenetics suggest that we all have the power to safeguard the health of subsequent generations, if we make the right choices.

I think this is a good thing. It makes it easy to remember what the function will produce. The only oddity the user has to be aware of is that int32 has more precision than float32. Probably not obvious to a newbie, but a newbie will probably be using the double defaults anyway. Which is another good reason for making double the default type. If you don't want that to happen, then be clear about what data-type > should be used by casting yourself. In this case, we should probably > not try and guess about what users really want in mixed data-type > situations. I wonder if it would be reasonable to add the dtype keyword to hstack itself? Hmmm, what are the conventions for coercions to lesser precision? That could get messy indeed, maybe it is best to leave such things alone and let the programmer deal with it by rethinking the program. In the float case that would probably mean using a float32 array instead of an int32 array. Chuck -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In a day and age where comedy has suffered numerous hours in PG-13 detention, it's unbelievably refreshing to see what Judd Apatow and his merry gang of misfits have been able to do with the genre. On the surface, Superbad sounds like the many teen sex comedies that have come before it: Three horny geeks desperately want to lose their virginity before heading off to college. But instead of providing us with a Xerox copy full of old, repetitive jokes, the film takes a bunch of familiar scenarios and updates them for a generation (and a decade) in need of its own classic.
Whereas the 80's were filled to the brim with raunchy teen-related comedies like Animal House, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, The Last American Virgin, Porky's (I can go on ...), Hollywood doesn't seem to have the balls anymore to tell it like it is. To show us what it's really like to be a kid graduating high school in the year 2007. Superbad isn't just designed to appeal to today's current crop of sex-obsessed teenagers -- it's for anyone who's ever found themselves at a point where your friends are your entire world. Not only are they there to help score you a six-pack, but it's your friends who help define your experiences and create new, long-lasting memories. That's really what Superbad is about -- and if anyone disagrees, they can (quite frankly) f*ck off.p>There's no long, detailed plot to go through here -- Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera) are two weeks away from graduating high school, and have just found out that they've been accepted to different colleges. When their tag-along friend Fogell (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) surprises the guys with a new fake I.D. (in which his name has been changed to the very awesome and instantly-memorable 'McLovin'), the boys use it as an opportunity to snag a ton of alcohol for a party hosted by the kind of girls you'd love to lose your virginity to. Problems arise when Fogell runs into two cops (who are way too immature to be handling a gun and a badge) at the liquor store, leaving Seth and Evan to fend for themselves, and somehow deliver the alcohol they promised before the night is over. And that's Superbad in a nutshell.
Of course, a whole mess of stuff happens to Seth, Evan and 'McLovin' along the way -- the latter is taken on the ride of his life, sandwiched between the moronic side of the law (as played by co-writer Seth Rogen and Bill Hader), while Seth and Evan bumble their way through a massive stoner party before finishing things off where most teen sex comedies resolve the last of their issues -- the all-too-important high school year-end bash. But while the film probably sets a record for out-of-control profanity (including a lengthily scene in which drawings of penises engulf the screen), it manages to toss in a whole bunch of heart too. It's through this outrageous experience that Seth and Evan learn how much they mean to one another, and at the same time the film delivers an inspiring message for people of all ages: Never take your friends for granted. These are the people that, for some odd reason, decided to share their lives -- their ups, their downs and their in-betweens -- with you and your heavy baggage. Respect them. Value them. And cherish the moments you spend together because, in an instant, they can be whisked away to another college, another job or another world upstairs.
Director Greg Mattola might be new to the big-screen, but he's not new to the Judd Apatow clan. Mattola directed a handful of Undeclared episodes and, here, he fits in like a frat boy at a keg party. It's one thing to be making your directorial debut from an extremely detailed script, but it's another to be directing a bunch of kids who work best in an improv environment. Jonah Hill and Michael Cera displayed some of the best on-screen chemistry I've seen all year, and newcomer Christopher Mintz-Plasse squeezed his shtick in there at just the right moments. But what's a classic comedy without its secondary characters? Rogen and Hader, as two cops desperate to re-live their glory days through a geek with a fake I.D., are hysterical. And when they pass a loaded gun to 'McLovin,' it almost feels like they're passing the comedic torch to an up-and-coming generation that's aspiring to be more like them.
And that's exactly what I love about these Judd Apatow films. They're funny as hell, sure, but each one strives to introduce new faces to a market that's chock-full of the same old, same old. Remember that scene from Swingers when Vince turns to Mikey and goes: "And you got these fu*king claws and these fangs, man! And you're looking at your claws and you're looking at your fangs. And you're thinking to yourself, you don't know what to do, man. 'I don't know how to kill the bunny.' With *this* you don't know how to kill the bunny, do you know what I mean?" Well it reminds me of Apatow and his friends. They have these claws, and these fangs, and they're using them to tear through this genre like a wild animal. 20 years from now Superbad will be a comedy classic, and we'll be looking back in fondness just as we do today with films from 20 years ago. Ain't it nice to watch history being made?

Markham's teaching roots help tap potential
by Kimberly Wright
Air University Public Affairs
2/16/2012 -
MAXWELL AIR FORCE BASE, Ala.
-- An instructor's legacy of caring has earned him applause from a civic group.
Houston Markham, instructional systems specialist in curriculum development for the Holm Center for Officer Accessions and Citizen Development, received the Young Professional of the Year Award from Emerge Montgomery Feb. 6.
He credits his strong support system of family and co-workers who encouraged him since he was an intern at Maxwell in 1995.
"This award is not all about me. It's about them," he said.
His empathy for those new to the base helps him as an instructor and course director for Civilian Acculturation Leadership Training, or CALT. "I see myself in a lot of those young people," he said.
The two-week course is designed for civilians with two to five years of experience and no prior military background - "OTS for civilians, for lack of a better term," said Markham. The civilians are housed on the Officer Training School campus, immersed in Air Force culture and develop leadership skills.
He also teaches and evaluates as part of the academic instructor course for newly hired instructors at OTS as well as courses for Air Force Junior Reserve Office Training Corps and AFROTC instructors, impacting more than 2,500 instructors, according to the information submitted for the award nomination.
Markam was a major player in the Holm Center's curriculum branch receiving an "Outstanding" from the Air Education and Training Command Inspector General in 2011.
He reviews content, quality and method of academic programs, researches and adapts new educational programs and evaluation procedures within the Holm Center.
Through his work as an instructor and curriculum designer, he also impacted an assortment of people in the community, including Alabama Department of Transportation employees, Montgomery Public School administrators and instructors, and youth at Frazier Memorial United Methodist Church and Alabama State University.
For example, he provided more than 250 hours of curriculum design instruction to more than 500 Montgomery Public School administrators and instructors.
Novadean Watson-Stone, chief of instructor education and evaluation, lauded Markam's ability to assess the strengths and needs of those he teaches and pull "from his pool of knowledge to help that person," she said. "He's able to walk into a classroom and walk out having made a difference."
Watson-Stone said she's not the only one impressed by his abilities. She pointed out that students regularly praise Markam in after-class assessments.
"He definitely has a strong passion for academic excellence," she said.
Markham has worked at Air University Headquarters and Air War College, but found his niche as an instructor.
Markham works in Building 803, which is now known as the Air University Academic Facility. However, it used to be the Academic Instructor School, and it is here he cut his teeth as an instructor after "leaders and bosses determined my skills would be useful at the Academic Instructor School," he said.
Though he was a bit awed by the responsibility - "I was frightened to death," he admitted - he drew upon the encouragement of others to help him realize his potential. Both his parents are educators, his mother an English teacher, his father a football coach at Alabama State University. Markam said the greatest reward he has experienced is the feedback from students he was able to help.
"It's great to hear that you made a difference in their growth and their lives," he said. "That's what I cherish about this profession. ... This award is about giving of self. If more people were willing to give, the world would be a better place."
In addition to helping others learn, Markam is continuing his education, pursuing a doctorate in adult education with a tentative completion date of December 2013.

SEATTLE (AP) — Initiative activist Tim Eyman says voters of all political parties are supporting a backlash against red light cameras that automatically mail tickets to drivers.
Camera measures are on the November ballot in Longview, Bellingham and Monroe. Initiatives are gathering signatures in Redmond and Wenatchee.
Eyman started the movement in Washington last year when 71 percent of voters in his hometown of Mukilteo said they wanted to ban the cameras.
Eyman and other opponents say the main purpose of the cameras is to generate money for cities. Supporters say they reduce accidents.
The Seattle Times reports (http://bit.ly/n6vRwC ) cameras at 21 intersections in the city brought in $4.8 million last year in ticket fines.

Anything happen this week to revolutionize the film industry? What, you don't know? You must need the Reject Recap, our weekly rundown of the best and most important news and features any movie fan must read. Yeah, most of it is our own content, but we also look outside the FSR borders for great film-related (and sometimes TV-related) pieces elsewhere. If you see something you think should be included in the Recap, please email me.
Over the past seven days, in spite of a major film festival going on (well, maybe because of this), a lot of very interesting things happened or came out. The Internet continued to alter the business of cinema and we heard about long-awaited sequels to '90s movies. Obligatorily, we also thought more about the next Star Wars movie. And once again we include a few must-watch videos. So, in honor of what's gone on this week, put on David Bowie's "Changes," sit back and play catch up with us.

Veronica Mars Changes Everything?
Obviously the biggest thing to happen in film this week was the record-breaking Kickstarter campaign for the Veronica Mars movie, also the first major studio crowdfunding effort. Debates ensued, and Scott laid out some great points about how this isn't really a big deal. He also recognized this to hardly be different than most Kickstarter projects: "Was it easier for Veronica Mars than the average, aspiring unknown? Of course. Of course. But even with its massive leg up, it's still a creator selling the public on a vision and appealing to whether they think it's worthwhile or not. Thomas is going to have a lot easier time with distribution, but the grounding factor is that this is a story that fans clearly want that would not have gotten made without them. Yes, Warners could have made it, but they didn't, and they weren't going to, and them's the breaks. Now, Veronica Mars is going to be in theaters in 2014."

Vimeo on Demand
Continuing to uphold their status as the best video streaming and sharing site on the Internet (and one of the coolest tech brands, as we're always reminded while watching a movie in their theater at SXSW), Vimeo announced this week a new distribution platform through which they allow users to put a price on their films and other uploaded works. Scott commented on the news: "It'll be interesting to see how the concept plays out in the real world with filmmakers attempting to market their Vimeo page, small distribution companies leveraging the service beyond a VOD/Netflix/iTunes/Amazon release, and potential fans searching through unknown names and titles to find something good. After all, filmmakers will still have to find a way to build buzz for their product regardless of where it's available. But even so, it's a new door that's been swung open, and that can only be a good thing. This really could be big."

Broken Projector Podcast: Kickstarter for Millionaires
All week long we've been reviewing, interviewing and Drafthousing from the 2013 SXSW Film Festival, and you should definitely check out all our coverage here. Just to summarize a few things: some of our favorite films so far include I Am Divine, The Punk Singer, Joss Whedon's Much Ado About Nothing, Scenic Route, Drinking Buddies, Some Girl(s) and Spring Breakers. And we've talked exclusively with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Pat Healy, Danny Boyle, Vincenzo Natali and Shane Carruth, who shared some details about his next film.

Trainspotting 2 is The Little Sequel That Could
This is also more from SXSW, actually. While down in Austin, director Danny Boyle claimed this week that his Trainspotting sequel, now only loosely based on Irvine Welsh's Porno, is chugging back into action with John Hodge writing the thing. He missed the chance for the planned 10-year-after return and is looking at the 20th anniversary for a 2016 release. Nathan responded simply: "Obviously any chance to get Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Johnny Lee Miller, and Robert Carlyle back together for anything would be an opportunity well worth taking."

Jurassic Park 4 For Colin Trevorrow
Whether or not it's the beloved franchise he teased about a while back (the one we presumed was Star Wars), newcomer Colin Trevorrow has been named as director of Jurassic Park 4. Neil weighed the pros and cons about the choice: "The inherent upside to a guy like Trevorrow: he's smart, talented, untainted by years in the studio system so he's not just a "yes" man, and like many of you who will undoubtedly excited about this project: he's a fan. That matters. The potential downside: Trevorrow isn't seasoned enough yet to avoid becoming Steven Spielberg's "yes" man, should it come to that"…"it would just be nice to have the magic of the first film back. At this point, we can most comfortably entrust such a task to a younger filmmaker who has grown up with the originals."

Upon the success of my first edited volume titled Arab women's Lives Retold: Exploring Identity through Writing (Syracuse University Press, 2007), which included a number of studies/analyses of autobiographical texts written by Arab women writers and women writers of Arab origin, I am working on a second edited volume on Arab Women's Autobiographical Writings.
The first volume (2007) included studies of a number of texts by Arab women writers or women writers of Arab origin, such as Leila Ahmed's A Border Passage: From Cairo to America; Assia Djebar's L'Amour, La Fantasia; Raimonda Tawil's My Home, My Prison; Leila Abouzeid's Return to childhood; Fatima Mernissi's Dreams of Trespass; Queen Noor's Leap of Faith; in addition to studies of autobiography in fiction and poetry, such as texts by Ahdaf Soueif, Mohja Kahf and Suheir Hammad.
If you are interested in writing a chapter for this volume in which you analyze a text, or more (not included in the first volume), written by an Arab woman or a woman of an Arab origin, please send a bio of 500 words and a proposal or an abstract of 500-800 words (and a title) by June 30th, 2012 to: Nawar Al-Hassan Golley: email@example.com
Notification of acceptance will be sent by: July 31th, 2012.
Completed papers are due: December 30th, 2012.
