Groton — The Navy said Wednesday it has relieved Cmdr. Joseph Biondi from his duty as commanding officer of the Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS San Juan.
Biondi is one of five commanding officers relieved of their duties since January 2014 across the entire Navy, said Timothy Hawkins, a spokesman for Submarine Group 2.
"Biondi's relief was related to shortfalls in professional performance, leading to leadership's loss of confidence in his ability to serve in a position of command authority," according to a Navy press release.
Capt. Vernon Parks, the commander of Submarine Development Squadron 12, relieved Boindi from his position because of "a loss of confidence in his ability to serve effectively as commanding officer," the release said.
The professional shortcomings were determined from periodic assessments and examinations over the course of his command tour, which began in April 2012, Hawkins said. The deficiencies were not related to personal misconduct. They had to do with how he did his job, Hawkins said. Hawkins would not describe the specifics of Biondi's professional shortcomings.
At this time Biondi has been reassigned to the staff of Commander, Submarine Group 2, which works for Rear Adm. Ken Perry, who has oversight responsibilities for attack submarines on the East Coast.
Biondi's future depends ultimately on what is recommended by the chain of command and the Naval Personnel Command during a formal process called "detach for cause."
"A detach for cause is the administrative removal of an officer from his current assignment before their normal transfer or planned rotation date," according to a military personnel document. "A DFC is one of the strongest administrative measures available."
The "detach for cause" is filed in the officer's personnel record and "has serious effects on the officer's potential promotion, duty assignments, selection for schools, and special assignments," according to the document. "The relieved commander will be reassigned pending the outcome of the formal process."
The Navy holds commanders to "very high standards" and holds them accountable when the standards are not met, the Navy press release said.
Biondi enlisted in the Navy after graduating high school in Spokane, Wash., in 1987 and his first assignment was on the USS Sunfish.
He reported to the Professor of Naval Science at Cornell University in January 1999 and served as a visiting lecturer. He completed a master's degree in industrial labor relations during his tour.
In April 2012 when Biondi was given command of the USS San Juan from Cmdr. Ollie Lewis he said, "Cmdr. Lewis and the crew have done an amazing job completing the modernization and returning to sea one of the most technologically advanced submarines in the fleet. I am looking forward to leading the crew in the employment of her new systems."
Biondi has been replaced by Cmdr. Sam Geiger, deputy commander at Submarine Squadron 4, until a permanent replacement is named. Geiger finished a three-year tour as commanding officer of the USS Toledo on May 16.

Michele Bachmann reads Huffington Post and Daily Beast, watches MSNBC
Bachmann gets her news from sources that haven't been easy on her lately.
During the question and answer session at the National Press Club this afternoon, most of of Michele Bachmann's answers were predictable.
Yes, she's still against raising the debt ceiling. Yes, she still thinks Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are the source of the entire U.S. housing crisis, even though she used them to finance her own home. What's that about her husband's "ungay" clinic? Well, anyway, she loves Marcus and she's running for president, next question, thank you.
When Bachmann was asked where she got her news -- the "Katie Couric to Sarah Palin" question that made the Alaska Governor look like such a babbling idiot -- she at first answered like Palin.
"I'm a big reader, and I read everything," she said.
When pressed for the liberal news outlets she reads, Bachmann gave a stunning response.
"As far as television goes, I will go to MSNBC, to see what MSNBC has to say," she said. And then: "And also the Huffington Post, and see what they have to say, or the Daily Beast."
So, since Michele's been so busy lately, City Pages thought it would go to MSNBC, the Huffington Post, and the Daily Beast, and see what they have to say about candidate Bachmann.
Here's a selection of coverage on candidate Bachmann from the Daily Beast:
"Bachmann's Unrivalled Extremism," by Michele Goldberg, June 14
Lots of politicians talk about a sinister homosexual agenda. Bachmann, who has made opposition to gay rights a cornerstone of her career, seems genuinely to believe in one. Her conviction trumps even her once close relationship with her lesbian stepsister. "What an amazing imagination," marvels Arnold. "Her ideology is so powerful that she can construct a reality just on a moment's notice."
"The Submissive Michele Bachmann," by Jill Lawrence, July 10
When I saw Bachmann's comments in a recent Washington Post profile of her marriage and tracked down the fuller videos on YouTube, I had to admit: I wondered if her husband had directed her to run for president, and whether both of them should be standing at the microphone during debates.
Here are a couple of stories Michele might not have had time to read in the Huffington Post.
"Michele Bachmann Silent On Teen Suicides In Her School District, Opposed Anti-Bullying Bill," July 26
Critics are arguing that Bachmann's impassiveness for bullying issues, her opposition to gay rights alongside Anoka-Hennepin Schools' controversial policy on teaching or talking about sexual orientation, creates a threatening environment for at-risk youth in the district.
"Church President Responds To Charge That Michele Bachmann is Anti-Catholic," July 18
Today, the Rev. Mark Schroeder, president of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) issued a response through the Religion News Service, hoping to clear up the controversy and speculation about the denomination's beliefs. He firmly states that, "To accuse (Bachmann) -- or her former church -- of being anti-Catholic is patently unfair and wrong," while also explaining that, "WELS holds to the historic Lutheran position that the Roman Catholic papacy fits the biblical characteristics of the Antichrist."
Finally, let's take a look at all the news Michele is missing on MSNBC as she busily zips around the country.
"Bachmann's husband got $137,000 in Medicaid funds," June 28

Swedish Silver: 9-Year-Old Boy Finds $265,000 Medieval Treasure Trove
A nine-year-old Swedish boy and his grandfather have found a hoard of 13th-century coins while treasure hunting on a battlefield. Just the silver in the coins alone is estimated to be worth a whopping $265,000.
It's every child's dream come true: A nine-year-old boy was out treasure hunting with his grandfather and uncovered a medieval hoard worth a small fortune.
Alexander Granhof told reporters he had first of all found a piece of metal which he took to be a shard of bullet. He then called his grandfather over, and the pair quickly uncovered more and more coins. Archaeologists with metal detectors were later able to find more coins at the site, bringing the total up to 7,000. The stash, which had been buried in two clay urns, also contained a number of English coins as well as Scandinavian coins.
Experts estimated that the silver in the coins alone is worth 1.5 million kronor (170,000 or $265,000). Until now there has been no announcement about a possible reward for the young man.
Bernd Gerlach of Lund's Historical Museum said the find was "absolutely unbelievable." Local archaeologist Mats Anglert told the Swedish English-language news Web site The Local that young Alexander was "somewhat overwhelmed" by the find but was "very enthusiastic" in helping the archaeologists with the dig.

Heritage Hall Rallies to 2A Title
STILLWATER - Heritage Hall is the Class 2A high school football champion, because the Chargers never seem to run out of time.
On Saturday afternoon, for the third time in the playoffs, the Chargers won on a dramatic late score. Wes Welker's 2-yard dive and subsequent extra-point kick with 55 seconds left gave No. 2 Heritage Hall a 35-34 win over No. 1 Tishomingo in the 2A title game at Lewis Field.
Heritage Hall finished 15-0 and claimed the northwest Oklahoma City school's first state gridiron title. Tishomingo, which was also seeking its first state football title, closed at 14-1 after surrendering more points in a game than it had all season.
Heritage Hall scored 10 points in the final 13 seconds to down Davis 41-38 in a second-round game, and scored a touchdown with 1:41 remaining to edge Plainview 10-6 in the quarterfinals.
"We've had a lot of kids play with a lot of heart," Heritage Hall coach Rod Warner said. "I think the Davis game and the Plainview games were pluses for us. We've been there before. We know what to do. How can you have a better state championship than that game? What a game!"
Tishomingo lost standout running back Jeff Harbert to an ankle injury midway through the third quarter. Quarterback Landon Wood took control after Harbert's exit, and guided the Indians on a 14-play, 73-yard touchdown drive that consumed more than eight minutes of the fourth quarter.
Wood's 1-yard, fourth-down run with 3:17 left gave the Indians a 34-28 lead. A botched snap foiled the extra-point attempt, which proved costly for the Indians.
Heritage Hall quarterback Graham Colton completed his last 12 pass attempts, including a 6-for-6 effort on the Chargers' final drive. On fourth-and-4 from his own 40, he hit Welker for a 13-yard gain. After an illegal motion penalty, Colton connected with Derek Peek for 34 yards, and hit Welker again for 16 yards. That put the Chargers on the 2, and Welker dove in for the score.
"They (the Indians) had never fought back from behind, and we'd been doing it all year," Welker said. "I think it gave us a little bit of an edge. We thought we had to drive down and score quickly, and that's what we did. Graham did a fantastic job stepping up."
Tishomingo, out of time-outs, started its last possession at its own 35, after the ensuing kickoff went out of bounds. Heritage Hall's Harper Ward sacked Wood on first down. Wood spiked the ball on second down to stop the clock, and scrambled for 12 yards on third down. As Tishomingo lined up for the fourth-down snap, one of its linemen moved, resulting in a penalty with :01 left. The Indians couldn't snap the ball in time after the referee signaled for the clock to start again.
The Indians "did everything they could to possibly win this thing," Tishomingo coach Rex Breed said. "As far as I'm concerned, they're still the No. 1 team in Class 2A in the state of Oklahoma. They just didn't win the ball game today. (Heritage Hall) is an excellent football team. They played a great ball game."
Colton, a junior, completed 22-of-32 passes for 258 yards. That gave him 3,127 passing yards for the season, breaking the state single-season record held for eight days by Tulsa Union's Josh Blankenship. Blankenship passed for 3,119 yards this season.
Welker, as usual, did a little bit of everything for the Chargers. The junior tailback caught nine passes for 92 yards, rushed 19 times for 58 yards and three touchdowns, had an interception, kicked a 47-yard field goal and had 75 return yards.
Tishomingo had four players leave the game because of second-half injuries, including Harbert, the Indians' leading rusher. Before his injury, Harbert had 13 carries for 187 yards, including touchdown runs of 40 and 93 yards. Wood rushed 16 times for 109 yards.
Harbert's 40-yarder came in the first quarter. Heritage Hall's Nick Duttweiler blocked a punt by Wood late in the first quarter, which resulted in a safety.
After the ensuing free kick, the Chargers drove 45 yards and scored on an 18-yard Welker run. J.T. Glomset reached back and one-handed a Colton pass to complete a successful 2-point conversion, making it 10-7. That started a wild second quarter, in which the teams combined for 33 points.
Wood had a 22-yard touchdown run to put the Indians up 14-10. Welker boomed the 47-yard field goal - his career best - to make it 14-13, and his interception and return to the Tishomingo 30 set up a 26-yard touchdown pass from Colton to Paul Long. Colton's 2-point run gave Heritage Hall a 21-14 lead. Harbert answered with his 93-yard touchdown run, which tied the game.
The Chargers went for a touchdown on fourth-and-inches from the Tishomingo 11, but a Colton pass fell incomplete 58 seconds before halftime.
A 16-yard Wood touchdown run with 6:58 left in the third quarter capped an 80-yard, six-play drive and put the Indians ahead 28-21.Archive ID: 746003

Id like to be a human, but I don't have an angel, anyone up for that, or shall I be one of those without an angel. I don't mind. Heres my SU anyways.
(First, Middle, and Last) Nathan Lee Ward
(Names your character has been called in the past or is still called) Nath
(Male or Female)male
(From 14 to 30) 14
(Job. If none - or too young - simply put "N/A") works at the dog shelter doing voluntary work.

(Peculiar traits, can be good or bad) writing, and keeping people happy,
(Things he/she enjoys) seeing people smile, doughnuts, making up phrases to be used to cheer people up. H has a fascination with vampires and werewolves
(Things he/she despises) bad people, blood, death.
(His/her hopes and dreams) to become a doctor, and a writer in his spare time, but sometimes he gets stuck between both
(His/her greatest fears) His father, as he used to beat him and treat him badly, but always cared for his brother. His father once killed a man that trespassed into the house and lots of blood was shed while Nath watched, and his father threatened that if he doesn't smarten up, he would get the blade.
(A written description is required, you may add a picture to help visualize the character further) Light blue hair, a usual young complexion but more 'cute' than 'hot' wears a black t-shirt and yellow body warmer along with blue chinos and white trainers.
(How your character thinks, acts, and feels; this one is self-explanatory) Prefers to think of life as one big misunderstanding, and thinks that there is more to life than just living and dying. He wants peoples lives to live for longer, and he wants to discover how to save people from dying, or bring the dead back to life. He is very willing to do so, that 80% of his free time is spent researching black magic and vampires, plus writing stories about what his dreams are, and thinks that every life has some meaning in it.
(Describe your character's life from their early memories to their current age. If he/she didn't already live in Seattle, you must explain why he/she moved there. Be sure to include all major events in his/her life, as your Angel will need this information to expand their own sign-up. Remember, your Angel has seen everything the Human has, and more) Nath used to live in England, but moved away with his mother to get as far away from his father and brother as possible. His mother died 4 months after living in Chicago, and after Nath was moved to Seattle and fostered by a single mother who was a social worker, who had a child named Alex. He treated Alex like his brother, until he passed away 2 years later. Soon after he thought his life was forsaken, as all the people he loved were dying or being hurt. His mother suffered dearly and became crazy, and was sent to an asylum. He then went and lived with a family of monks, who hated superstitious things such as vampires, and werewolves, so Nath had to hide his stories. School was no exception. It was his only time to get away and write his books, but people usually either laughed at him and called him 'a little boy who believes in vampires' or 'English posh' All of it enraged Nath but he never showed his emotions to anyone, he barely snapped. Two weeks have passed since he moved in with the monks.

Late Jomon Cultigens in Northeastern Japan
D'Andrea, A. C., Crawford, G. W., Yoshizaki, M., Kudo, T., Antiquity
The subsistence basis for Japanese civilization has always been intensive rice cultivation. What was grown there before the introduction of paddy technology? A glimpse of the plant cultigens in the later Jomon begins to tell.
Investigations of the possible role horticulture played in Jomon cultures, despite discussion over several decades (e.g. Crawford 1983, 1992b; Kotani 1981; Nakao 1966; Sasaki 1971; Tsukada et al. 1986; Ueyama 1969), have been hindered by a lack of radiocarbon-dated cultigen remains. Sporadic occurrences of domesticated plants are reported from sites inhabited as early as the Initial Jomon (TABLE 1) (see Crawford 1992a for a review). At the very least, small-scale horticultural activities appear to have been practised by some Jomon groups. Before the nature and economic importance of these activities can be evaluated, the cultigens must be placed in a proper cultural context. Until now, none of these remains has been directly dated. Atomic Mass Spectrometry (AMS) dating of two rice grains (Oryza sativa var. japonica) from the floor of a Late Jomon pithouse at the Kazahari site in northeastern Honshu [ILLUSTRATION FOR FIGURE 1 OMITTED] are the first such dates obtained on cultigens that confirm their Jomon association. From the same floor, two other crops, foxtail (Setaria italica ssp. italica) and broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum) have been identified (TABLE 2).
The conservative view holds that, following the initial introduction of rice to Kyushu at the beginning of the Early Yayoi (c. 2300 BP), rice cultivation moved slowly northeastwards after a rapid spread into southwestern Honshu, not reaching northern Tohoku until the Late Yayoi (c. 1900 BP) (Akazawa 1982; 1986). This model has been revised since the recovery of several Early Yayoi rice paddy fields in northern Tohoku (e.g. Murakoshi 1988; Suto 1988), which indicate the swift dispersal of rice paddy field technology to Tohoku from its initial adoption in Kyushu (Barnes 1993; Crawford 1992b; Suto 1988). In southwestern Japan, non-paddy rice growing may have been practised many centuries before paddy production. Lack of adequate archaeobotanical studies in Tohoku, however, has hindered our understanding of prehistoric human-ecological issues there. Study of the samples reported here, the first to be recovered in Tohoku systematically by flotation, supports not only the hypothesis for a more rapid northeastward spread of rice and its presence as a non-paddy product of Jomon horticultural activities in Tohoku, but confirms the hypothesis of a pre-Yayoi introduction of rice to Japan.

Here's a short tutorial on how to dye fabric with the popular ombre effect. I took these pictures for a tutorial back in May and just realized I never posted it while I was ombre-ing a baby gift this weekend. So here's how to ombre and I'll be back to share my ombre project with you soon!
I used 100% cotton and a box of Rit dye to achieve the ombre.
First step: Add equal parts dye to three buckets and some salt, maybe a tablespoon to each bucket to help set the dye.
Then add different amounts of water to create 3 different shades of the color. In bucket #1 I added 8 cups of water, #2 I added 5 cups of water, and bucket #3 I added 2 cups of water.
Starting with bucket #1 (the lighest) I dunked the entire piece of fabric and let it sit until it had reached the desired color. Squeeze out the extra dye and more to the next bucket. If you don't want your hands to change colors I strongly recommend wearing latex gloves while dyeing. Then using bucket #2 I dunked the fabric about 2/3rd of the way, let it sit and then squeezed it out.
And then moved it to the final bucket to dye the last 1/3rd of the fabric to get the darkest color. Squeeze it out and then rinse with cold water.
Continue rinsing and squeezing until the water runs clear.
And ta da! An ombre piece of fabric.

I'm using LDAP authentication (against an OpenLDAP server), which works fine on both of my productins Moodle sites and my development site (v1.5 ALPHA, 2005043000). I've set both Update local data and Update external data to Yes for several fields. The local data update works fine - when the user logs in, I get the data from the LDAP server. When I change any of those fields in Moodle and try to update the profile, I get:

From Zach Erbaugh (erbauza at earlham.edu) Tuesday, 2 August 2005, 08:08 PM:
Thanks for the reply, bertsch. I think that by saying the way to fix it is to turn it off, you're confirming that the Update external data feature is broken.

Fixed in HEAD and STABLE. Thanks a lot for a superb bug report.
This bug (typo, actually) got past us because it would only be triggered when you picked one field to be updated. If you picked more than one, it would work correctly.

After a very difficult winter for many of us, it looks like the good weather has finally arrived . It appears many put their projects on hold over the winter due to the brutal weather! Now that the weather has improved , we have been overwhelmed with orders & phone calls! We realize that it has been difficult to get through to us on our phones & we apologize. We are so swamped with orders for complete engine swap kits & combinations, that we have found it necessary to dedicate additional hours to the shop ,which has reduced our normal phone hours. Whether you are calling , texting or leaving a voice mail, "PLEASE" be sure to include your "e mail" address. We are still answering e mails sometimes up til midnight and this may be the best way to get in touch with us at this time! We also have up to date price quotes, availabilities ,lead times etc available via e mail. We have 25+ years of info, photos , instruction etc available via e mail that is not possible to put on phones for texting. Also if you DO NOT leave a message , we cannot contact you? Please place your order early!
Our headers are MADE IN THE USA.
D&D offers an extensive line of headers for late model Fox Mustangs and many other Fox body Ford vehicles. Headers are offered in a variety of tube sizes, collectors and applications for the popular swap combinations. Most of our headers can be used with our exclusive motor plate mounting system or our conventional motor mounts. To suit everyone's needs D&D offers shorty/mid length design headers, street/strip long tube headers and full competition long tube headers. We provide these headers for 302 & 351W small blocks, 351 Clevelands, 351 Clevors and 429/460s. They are available in many tube sizes for most popular cylinder head combinations. Call us for info on your 1994-2004 SN95 Mustang engine swaps & headers!
Since D&D has been involved with the Fox body & SN95 cars and engine swaps since the mid 1980's, contacting us "FIRST" can save you needless wasted dollars & hours of hassles with the swap and build.. These vehicles (Mustang/Fox/SN95) are a fantastic platform for the engine swaps & upgrades! DON"T MAKE THE ENGINE SWAP & PROJECT MORE DIFFICULT THAN NECESSARY!! Contact us first before you get into buying a pile of components that will complicate & undermine the results of your project! We get a dozen phone calls "every" day from people who have already purchased components/combinations and have major problems/issues with them. We are not above trying to help someone who has purchased a component from someplace other than D&D but the truth of the matter is that we don't have a magic wand to make the incorrect component the correct component . This is not only frustrating for the customer but for us as well when we know that a simple call (or e mail) to us first could have saved the customer a lot of time,grief & money!

Old wives' tales are perhaps as old as language itself. They're part of our oral tradition, originating long before pen and ink, books and movies, and certainly before the Internet. Why do we cling to such tales about common ailments and our health when we live in a world rich with medical expertise and proven treatments and cures?
Some probably have survived through the ages because they offer comforting advice about experiences we all share, have little control over, and usually worry about, such as childbirth and sickness.
Many old wives' tales, especially those surrounding pregnancy and childbirth, have been proven false or irrelevant by advances in medicine and technology. One example is the use of prenatal ultrasound to detect the sex of a fetus instead of dangling a ring suspended on a string over the expectant woman's belly. According to the tale, if the ring swings from side to side, it's a girl, and if it swings in a circle, it's a boy. An ultrasound reading may not be as much fun, but the test results are certainly more accurate.
Some old wives' tales about health and sickness have some basis in fact, whereas other, newer ones seem to reflect a kind of technophobia, such as those related to watching television. Though some old wives' tales are true, most are harmless — and at least one described here is dangerous.
False. A baby girl's heart rate is usually faster than a boy's, but only after the onset of labor. There's no difference between fetal heart rates for boys and girls, but the rate does vary with the age of the fetus. By approximately the fifth week of pregnancy, the fetal heart rate is near the mother's — around 80 to 85 BPM. It continues to accelerate until early in the ninth week, when it reaches 170 to 200 BPM and then decelerates to an average of 120 to 160 BPM by the middle of the pregnancy. Normal fetal heart rate during labor ranges from 120 to 160 BPM for boys and girls.
False. If a woman has a short torso, there's no place for the baby to grow but out. A long torso may mean roomier accommodations for a baby, making it less likely for a woman's belly to bulge outward. And a wide belly may just mean that the baby is sideways.
False. If a woman's carrying high, this may be her first pregnancy or her body's in good shape. Stomach muscles have a tendency to become more elastic with each pregnancy, so a belly that's seen more than one pregnancy may hang a little low.
False. This color change has nothing to do with the sex of the child — an increase in the hormones secreted by the placenta and ovaries and the melanocyte-stimulating hormone (which regulates skin pigmentation) causes dark areas of the body to become more pronounced in most pregnant women. Nipples, birthmarks, moles, or beauty marks may appear darker during pregnancy. A dark line also may appear down the middle of the belly. Called the linea nigra (black line), it runs from above the navel to the pubic area. Darkened areas usually fade soon after childbirth.
False. If a woman is healthy, breastfeeding during pregnancy won't harm her, the fetus, or her toddler. (A doctor may recommend that a pregnant woman not breastfeed, though, if she has a nutritional deficiency, is underweight, or is at risk for pre-term labor.)
False. Just the opposite is true in this case. Keeping a baby barefoot can help strengthen his or her foot muscles and help the child learn to walk earlier. A toddler who is walking, though, needs comfortable shoes that fit well — they shouldn't be rigid. Shoes should conform to the shape of a child's feet and provide a little extra room for growth.
False. Babies who spend their active hours in walkers may learn to sit, crawl, and walk later than children who have to learn these skills on their own if they want to get around. Sitting in an infant walker, with its wide tray and small leg openings, blocks the visual feedback so important to a baby learning muscle coordination. More important, baby walkers are dangerous. Nearly 14,000 injuries are treated in emergency rooms every year as a result of walkers. And 34 children have died since 1973 because of baby walkers. Stairway falls in walkers can be especially severe. In a policy statement, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended a ban on the manufacture and sale of mobile infant walkers in the United States.
False. This tale goes back hundreds of years to a time when cats were associated with witchcraft and evil spirits. Cat-lovers, rest easy — it's anatomically impossible for a cat or other animal to suffocate a baby by sealing the baby's mouth with its own. Even so, cats and other pets should be supervised around small children and introduced to a baby gradually. You should also keep cats (just as you should keep other pets and items such as blankets and plush toys) out of your baby's crib or bassinet.
False. Both high fevers and colds can cause fluid loss. Drinking plenty of liquids such as water, fruit juice, and vegetable juice can help prevent dehydration. And with both fevers and colds, it's fine to eat regular meals — missing nutrients may only make a person sicker.
False. According to the American Red Cross, it's usually not necessary for you or your child to wait an hour before going in the water. However, it is recommended that you wait until digestion has begun, especially if you've had a big fatty meal and you plan to swim strenuously. The Red Cross also advises against chewing gum or eating while in the water, both of which could cause choking.
False. Coffee won't affect growth, but too much caffeine doesn't belong in a child's diet. Excess caffeine can prevent the absorption of calcium and other nutrients.
True. Fish is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids that have been found to be very important for brain function. Certain fish, however, have significant levels of mercury. Therefore, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) suggests that pregnant women and women of child-bearing age decrease their exposure to mercury by either not eating swordfish, shark, and tuna, or limiting their consumption of these fish to once per month.
False. Although eating too many sugary, high-fat foods is not a good idea for anyone, studies show that no specific food has been proven to cause acne.
False. Spicy foods may aggravate ulcer symptoms in some people, but they don't bring about ulcers. A bacterial infection or overuse of pain medications such as aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs is the usual cause.
False. This tale may have started during World War II, when British intelligence spread a rumor that their pilots had remarkable night vision because they ate lots of carrots. They didn't want the Germans to know they were using radar. Carrots — and many other vegetables high in vitamin A — do help maintain healthy eyesight, but eating more than the recommended daily allowance won't improve vision.
False. Cold weather, wet hair, and chills don't cause colds; viruses do. People tend to catch colds more often in the winter because these viruses are spread more easily indoors, where there may be more contact with dry air and people with colds. Dry air — indoors or out — can lower resistance to infection.
False. Although reading in a dimly lit room won't do any harm, good lighting can help prevent eye fatigue and make reading easier.
False. Watching television won't hurt your eyes (no matter how close to the TV you sit), although too much TV can be a bad idea for kids. Research shows that children who consistently spend more than 10 hours a week watching TV are more likely to be overweight, aggressive, and slower to learn in school.
False. Only about 4% of the children in the United States have strabismus, a disorder in which the eyes are misaligned, giving the appearance that they're looking in different directions. Eye crossing does not lead to strabismus.
True ... and false. Thumb sucking often begins before birth and generally continues until age 5. If a child stops around the ages of 4 to 5, no harm will be done to the jaws and teeth. However, parents should discourage thumb sucking after the age of 4, when the gums, jaw, and permanent teeth begin their most significant growth. Therefore, after this age it's possible for thumb, finger, or pacifier sucking to contribute to buck teeth.
False. However, habitual knuckle cracking tends to cause hand swelling and decreased grip strength, and can result in functional hand impairment.
True. Just 15 minutes of listening to loud, pounding music; machinery; or other noises can cause temporary loss of hearing and tinnitus, a ringing in the ears. Loud noise causes the eardrum to vibrate excessively and can damage the tiny hairs in the cochlea, a cone-shaped tube in the inner ear that converts sound into electrical signals for the brain to process. Although temporary hearing loss usually disappears within a day or two, continuous exposure to extreme noise can result in permanent hearing loss. For example, if a child is wearing headphones — and those around him or her can hear the music — the volume is too high.

Imports for greater scrutiny
-after Food and Drug, GRA pacts
The Government Analyst Food and Drug Department says it is encouraged by recent cooperation agreements it has forged with the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA), which will allow it to inspect imports at the various ports-of-entry prior to them being released on the domestic market.
In a press release, the Department said the agreements will also allow it to access information on importers.
It noted that it has always viewed border control and inspection as effective tools of Import/Export Inspection and Certification and Food Control in its efforts to ensure the quality and safety of foods, human drugs, veterinary drugs, cosmetics and medical devices on the local market.
Under Section 22 of the Food and Drugs Act, the Department has the right to examine Customs Entries and to take samples of regulated items imported into Guyana to ensure the quality, safety and efficacy of such articles.
The provisions enshrined in the Act also empower the Department through the inspector to "Take samples of food, drug(s), cosmetic(s) or device(s) and these shall not be delivered to the importer until the analyst has reported upon the samples taken."
"If it appears from the report of the inspector or the analyst that the sale of the food, drug, cosmetic or device would be in contravention of this Act if sold in Guyana," the [item] shall not be admitted in Guyana for the use as a food, drug, cosmetic or device, the law also says.
The Importation Regulatory Requirements include, among other things, issuing a permit to importers of all articles that are under the remit of the Department.
"Thus importers must submit the necessary Quality Assurance and Control Documentations to demonstrate Good Manufacturing Practices and the quality and safety of the articles," the Department said. Label declarations of regulated articles must also be in English and comply with mandatory label requirements, it added.
In addition, articles must arrive in Guyana with 75% of stated shelf-life. Accordingly, the Department is urging all importers to comply with its regulatory procedures to facilitate the unimpeded clearance of imported items through the GRA.

International PM Day: Learn Something New about Project Management
Learn something new about Project Management on International Project Management Day.
We've been writing about Project Management, PRINCE2 and MS Project for over five years now to get people interested in project management and support attendees on our courses.
Below is my list of what I think are the best project management resources, guides, tips and blog posts published on our site. I've put them together today in recognition of International Project Management Day to help aspiring and experienced project managers improve their skills and manager better projects.
I've covered all angles and all abilities so whether you're new to project management or have 20 years of experience you can learn something new today.
The Best Online Project Management Communities
There are plenty of blog and Twitter lists around, but for the first time here is the most complete list of Project Management communities on the web.
If you're new to project management then this is a great way to learn from others in the field and pick up some helpful advice; of course the best way to get started it with our Project Management for Beginners Course!
These resources aren't just for beginners- many of the communities include very experienced project managers who are there to help others and work on the more complicated areas of the discipline. PRINCE2 Practitioners are common in the groups which make them the perfect location to get advice passing your exam.
Without further ado here's the list, which includes all the best places that project managers connect and hang out online.
Project Management for Start-ups
When many people think of project management, they picture large corporations, boardrooms and large-scale, multi-employee undertakings.
While it's true that big companies already reap the rewards that project management strategies provide, many SMBs and start-ups are beginning to realise the benefits of improving output using project management.
A project management team does not have to include twenty team members; it can be just as valuable with just one.
For complete beginners, it's worthwhile attending an Introduction to project management workshop, but if you already know the basics then learning an established framework to use by becoming a PRINCE2 Practitioner or Agile project management Practitioner is the next logical step.
For start-ups, good project management skills can mean the difference between surviving and dissolving and although some methods do not directly apply, many of the techniques, can help bring about more organisation and efficiency.
Let's take a look at some techniques that you should be considering when starting your own enterprise.
The 10 Best Introduction to Project Management Videos
Starting out in the world of Project Management can be a daunting experience for anyone. With so many terms, methods and variations to deal with, getting to grips with everything can be a real struggle.
For those new to Project Management, our Introduction to Project Management Training and our PRINCE2 Courses are a great place to start but there are also plenty of online resources available to help make things easier for you.
YouTube is one of those resources. There's something about videos which help to clarify and simplify complex ideas but wading through YouTube to find the best guides to Project Management isn't exactly the most interesting of tasks.
Luckily, we've done it so you don't have to and so here are our top ten Project Management videos aimed at those just starting out. We've everything from the very basics through to introducing the various methodologies and a fun one at the end.
Project Manage Your Life!
The skill of knowing how to manage projects is increasingly useful for businesses and definitely make someone more employable – our project management courses have never been so much in demand, particularly PRINCE2. But project management techniques are not just for work. You can use the practices in your personal life, to become more efficient and to reach your goals.
1. Identify projects
In business, the first step towards project management is to identify past, present and future developments that have as yet not been seen as projects. Once projects are identified, formal goals can be set and project management techniques can be applied.
You can use this in every day life, especially if you realise you keep hoping for a change that never comes. Making a decision to make the desired change happen immediately makes it become more achievable. Things that could be dealt with as projects include writing a book (see below) and planning an event such as a holiday or wedding; but also every day things like huge to-do lists that you keep putting off.
While you are identifying the project, identify the goal. You may sometimes find it's different to what you expect. For example, you may say your goal is to write a novel, but this is not actually the end point for most people - once you start thinking of it as a project you realise your goal is really to get the novel published.
2. Work backwards from a goal
Once you identify a goal, working backwards step-by-step to the point where you are now is a very efficient and controlled way of achieving it.
Using the example of getting your novel published, you identify your goal and approach it as a project:

- Newer

OU notebook: Offense adds Bell 'package'
Oklahoma coaches added a "Wildcat" package for third-team quarterback Blake Bell, using the redshirt freshman on third-and-short and goal-line situations. Bell's role might be similar to Tim Tebow's role early in his career at Florida.
"It's something we'll keep evolving with," said coach Bob Stoops. "Blake is so physical and strong. He's about 255 pounds. It's another guy to defend. The beauty of it is he can throw the ball. We're going to keep developing that."
Bell's first play was a 1-yard touchdown run.
"I had some jitters," Bell said. "I expected a linebacker to come (hit me), but the line just blew it wide open and I walked in."
The second time, the Sooners faced a third-and-2. Bell fumbled, fell on it and OU was forced a punt.
"Me and Roy (Finch) had a fumble exchange," Bell said. "I was supposed to (fake it) then keep it. It was my fault. As the quarterback, I have to hold onto it. We'll get it fixed."
OU's defense struggled at times against the run in the first half, but the Sooners defense dominated the second half.
Kansas State averaged 7.7 yards per carry in the first half.
"A couple of times, we got out of position reading the play, which is what they do," Stoop said. "(Quarterback Collin Klein) makes you pay for it. And we missed some tackles. We didn't tackle well in the first half. In the second half, we settled in and were more assignment correct."
In the second half, the Sooners limited K-State to 31 total yards and four first downs.
The Wildcats rushed for only six yards on 10 second-half carries. OU recorded seven sacks, six in the second half. Linebackers Tom Wort and Corey Nelson had two sacks each.
"Our front seven played very physical, had great resolve," said defensive coordinator Brent Venables. "We had a tough, physical mindset the second half. At the end of the day, that was the difference."
A week after he dropped three passes in a loss to Texas Tech, sophomore wide receiver Jaz Reynolds hauled in three catches, including two dazzling plays.
"I dropped a touchdown last week. This week, I had to snatch everything," Reynolds said.
Reynolds made an acrobatic 25-yard catch midway through the second quarter, followed by an 18-yard touchdown reception that he caught one-handed.
"The first one, the sun was kind of in my eyes. I just had to focus," Reynolds said. "The second one, I just snatched it out of the air. But there were a lot more plays out there today than those two."
OU's offense compiled 567 total yards and scored eight touchdowns.
The Sooners had touchdown drives of 80, 77, 62, 63, 68, 62, 67 and 72 yards.
"Coaches pushed all week to be in the right place at the right time," said wide receiver Ryan Broyles, who had 14 catches for 171 yards. "We worked hard on areas we needed to improve on individually. That really paid off for us."
Aaron Colvin, moved to cornerback in the third quarter of last week's game, played the entire game Saturday at cornerback. Sam Proctor and Javon Harris played the majority of the game at safety. Tony Jefferson played the "Roy backer" (strongside linebacker).
Colvin is filling in for cornerback Jamell Fleming, who suffered a knee injury two weeks ago against Kansas and underwent arthroscopic surgery 11 days ago.
"We thought Jamell was going to play," Venables said. "He practiced (Friday). We're really proud of Aaron and happy for us that we have a little depth there."
All of OU's injured players returned except Fleming. Linebacker Tom Wort (concussion), defensive tackle Casey Walker (thumb) and Dominique Whaley (flu) all played, although Whaley suffered a season-ending broken ankle on the first play of the game.
"They're going to surgery (Sunday)," Stoops said. "They're saying they're going to have to put a pin in (his ankle). I'm sure that will be it for Dom for the year. I'm really sad for Dom. What a great young man. We'll miss him."
Criticized after missing two field goals in last week's loss to Texas Tech, Michael Hunnicutt made his only field goal attempt Saturday, a 53-yarder on the final play of the first half that just cleared the crossbar.
The only negative was Hunnicutt had an extra point blocked by K-State's Raphael Guidry coming off the edge.
"I've been really pleased with Michael's overall play," Stoops said. "He's only going to get better. He's comfortable. He's doing really well."
Deep snapper Austin Woods was sidelined by an undisclosed injury. James Winchester, the deep snapper on punts, also snapped for field goals and extra points.
Tight ends haven't been as involved in the passing game this season but had some big plays against K-State.
James Hanna hauled in a short pass and turned it into a 35-yard reception on OU's second possession of the second half. It set up the touchdown that turned the game into a rout. Backup tight end Trent Ratterree added a 12-yard touchdown catch.
Kansas State fans booed following two third-quarter plays. After tackling KSU quarterback Collin Klein for a 2-yard loss, forcing a punt, OU defensive end Frank Alexander accidentally stepped on Klein's chest.
A few minutes later, on a kickoff, OU reserve linebacker Kellen Jones shoved K-State's Tyler Lockett after the return ended.
There were signs before kickoff the game might get chippy. Minutes before kickoff, a couple dozen players from both teams talked trash in the south end zone, eventually separated by coaches.
