could be fatal for people with high blod pressure according to research findings published in Telegraph UK.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
A lot of things can be fatal for people with any cronic illness. My neighbor dropped dead running across the street and was only a coffee drinker. A guy I went to school with apparently thought once you opened a fifth of bourbon you had to finish it or it would go bad. Ended up finishing him off. Warnings on the beverages cans suggest limiting consumption to certain levels if you are healthy and not to consume the product if have medical problems. Caffine levels per ounce of product approximate that of coffee and are less than some of the stuff they serve in coffee houses. With all of the other things that are actually associated with the deaths of people (smoking, drinking to excess, drug use, general violence in our society), I find it puzzling that there are so many continued attacks on these products.
Sentiment: Hold
Among those things is water....a couple years ago a woman died while running the Boston Marathon and they determined the cause of death was water, she over hydrated (drank too much water).
if caffiene was that bad I would have died 6 years ago. We had free energy drinks and drank 6 a day. Now maybe eating and looking like a WHALERUS by shopping at WALMART for CORN DOGS and 5 GALLON TUBS of ICE CREAM maybe worse? lol
Tobbacco kills people too, and there is the market :D.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Forgot to mention. Too much sugar? salt? etc etc etc
rrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wwwwwoooooooooooowwwww ttttttttttttttthhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaannnnnnnnkkkkkksssssss
This research is "news"? We've known this for a 100 years
High caffeine - exactly how much is high for this study. 500 Units, 1,000Units, 20,000 Units (whoops, probably fatal if all 20,000 taken at one time). A 12 ounce energy drink contains 120, less than found in coffee shop coffee. Just like it used to be with artificial sweetners, to have a harmful effect you had to consume ungodly amounts over a number of days to possibly be affected.
it also said may cause etc...

Petting Zoo Horror Story: Berlin Zoo Feeds Goat to Wolves
It's been a hard year for Berlin Zoo Director Bernhard Blaszkiewitz. First, he was accused of selling and mistreating animals. Then, he admitted he had killed cats with his bare hands. Now he let wolves rip a goat to shreds in front of zoo visitors.
Canadian wolves, such as the one pictured here in the wild, are being fed in Berlin's Zoo with goats from the petting zoo.
The feeding of zoo animals to other creatures in the parks is an accepted practice in the European Union. And like those animals, this goat had already been killed before being placed in the wolves' habitat.
In simple terms, it's an issue of animal overflow in a man-made environment without any predators. As Ragnar Kühne, the zoo's curator, told the mass-circulation daily Bild: "When we have too many goats in the petting zoo, we usually give them to farms or private persons. But if we can't get rid of them, we have them appropriately slaughtered and fed to carnivores."
Although some people might find it troubling that the wolves were fed in broad daylight and right in front of zoo visitors, the real issue of controversy seems to be that it happened in the wake of a series of shocking and mistrust-fomenting revelations about this and other German zoos.
For one, it might strike some as strange that this goat -- which was in perfectly good health -- should be killed this way after Bernhard Blaszkiewitz, the zoo's director, told Die Welt a few months ago that the park didn't kill surplus hoofed animals and feed them to other animals. "We don't do this," he insisted. "But, of course, it might happen that a deer breaks its neck, and then we allow the corpse to be eaten."
A zoo spokesman later clarified the statement saying that Blaszkiewitz had been referring to "wild" hoofed animals, such as, antelopes, zebras and deer, rather than to "domestic" hoofed animals, such as sheep, goats, cows and pigs.
Soon after, Blaszkiewitz admitted to killing a number of wild kittens in 1991 by breaking their necks with his own hands, saying the animals could bear diseases threatening to the other animals. At the time, Blaszkiewitz defended his actions. "I still think it was the right thing to do," Blaszkiewitz told Die Welt in March. "Wild house cats can pose a big danger to people and animals, so they shouldn't be tolerated in (zoos)."
In addition, last month the animal-rights organization Peta filed another criminal complaint against Blaszkiewitz, alleging that he improperly treated 10 bears by not giving them sufficient living space in Tierpark Berlin, which he also oversees.

Eight huge talking points from NSW's 12-8 win in State of Origin game one
- From: news.com.au
- May 29, 2014
STATE of Origin is alive.
The NSW Blues held off the Maroons 12-8 in one of the great encounters at Suncorp Stadium, setting the scene for one hell of a series.
These were the major talking points.
The short answer is no, but it was up there. The intensity was extraordinary, there was plenty of drama and controversy and the finish was brilliant. But Origin has had so many classics over its 100 games, dating right back to the very beginning, so that's just way too big a call.
MORE: Who sucked and who starred? Origin player ratings
MORE: Wounded Morris' miracle try-saver
MORE: Cracks appear as Maroons downed in epic
MORE: 17 things that happened since the Blues last won
Those are the words of the one and only Andrew Johns, referring to fullback Jarryd Hayne's majestic display for the Blues. In the 33rd minute, Hayne forced his way out of a tackle from Johnathan Thurston close to the line to find his way over and give his side a lead it ultimately would not relinquish. With his first touch of the footy in the second half, Hayne burst onto a kick return with so much intent you just knew this would be his night. He was in everything.
MORE: Daley hails 'courageous victory'
MORE: Heroic Hayne is the one
Five minutes in, and with Queensland's first chance with the footy in opposition territory, Darius Boyd scored a relatively soft try out wide. Moments later Billy Slater stormed through the heart of the Blues defence. It didn't lead to a try that time, but the signs were ominous.
With a player of the ilk of Daly Cherry-Evans at the ready to fill in from the bench, the loss of Cooper Cronk did not appear catastrophic at first for Queensland. But NSW capitalised on the loss of the superstar playmaker, overcoming its poor start to slowly seize control and take an unlikely 10-4 half-time lead. Cronk picked up the injury in the 10th minute in an apparent innocuous collision with teammate Nate Myles in a standard tackle.
In the 28th minute, Blues five-eighth Josh Reynolds was placed on report for an ugly tackle in which he flipped Queensland's Brent Tate. The crowd blew up and so did Tate's Maroons teammates, who rushed in from all over the field – but no punches were thrown. Reynolds now faces the prospect of missing Origin II after being hit with a grade two dangerous throw charge. Tate was not injured in the incident but said: "I have never been more frightened in all my life. I had my family here. The last thing they want to be doing is sitting next to a hospital bed like an Alex McKinnon situation."
It's Origin. What else do you expect? The Blues were forced to defend for the last 45 seconds after a controversial decision saw a penalty blown against NSW's Trent Hodkinson for a knock-on when he didn't play at the ball. Another penalty was awarded right on the siren, giving the Maroons one last shot to escape with the win, but NSW managed to wrap up Billy Slater with the final tackle of the game.
First it was Cooper Cronk with his broken arm, then Brett Morris popped out his shoulder while scoring for NSW in the first half. Proving that wingers are tougher than most people give them credit for, Morris popped it back in and played on. Queensland also had injury scares for Cam Smith (foot) and Billy Slater (shoulder), while Blues skipper Paul Gallen had a shoulder concern. NSW forward Anthony Watmough could be facing an extended stint on the sidelines with a torn bicep.
Have you seen this guy play for Newcastle this year? It wasn't the same man who was on the field at Suncorp. Boyd has come under fire this season for his lack of effort for the Knights but pull on the Maroon jersey and it's a different ball game. He was great for Queensland, scoring a double and coming within inches of a game-levelling third.

Told you all yesterday we would win & I would watch them live in Sydney bring back the Shield, NEW SOUTH WALES, NEW SOUTH WALES, NEW SOUTH WALES....3-0 IS COMING!!!! NSW - Not just the best State in Australia but the WORLD!!!!
Rick Posted at 1:22 PM May 29, 2014
Bird into 5/8 for Reynolds (poor bloke - had a great game) and if Fafita comes good for the sharks put him in there for Watmough. T-rex still doesn't run hard in origin. Disappointing as always. Those ref decisions were attrocious.
pv Posted at 1:16 PM May 29, 2014
I'm a queensland supporter and over the past 8 series I have been embarrased by the number of games handed to qld by appalling decisions by the refs. It was great to see an outcome not determined by the referee though he tried his absolute best to help qld over the line again particularly in the last few minutes.

Today I did a really good hard ride and not only did I not feel like crap afterwards but I didn't even pass out and sleep afterwards.
To celebrate, I went to a vegetarian all you can eat buffet, stuffed myself silly then on the way home I bought a watermelon and ate 1/4 of it at home. 5 hours later I got hungry and went to an all you can eat sushi buffet.
At both buffets I went alone, so I could concentrate on the gorging and not get distracted by chatter.
Beat that if you can!

Thanks Carol, we had a great time- Alex and your staff were absolutely delightful.
We had a great time at Celebration! Nick was an awesome coach…..good technical information, presented in an easy to follow manner. I learned a lot in a short period of time and look forward to practicing all of it. See you in Orlando soon!

He uses his skills and experience in the most productive manner, neither intimidating nor condescending, and has a terrific personality to top it off. … through Nick's guidance I have sufficiently rid myself of some bad habits and replaced them with a number of good ones; enough to give me confidence that my game will continue to improve in the future.

Welcome To Screamscape!
If you're a theme park lover or enjoy the best thrill rides the world has to offer, you've found the right place.
From new ride announcements, construction reports and the latest rumors: Screamscape always has something new to report.
News & Rumors
---- THE LATEST WATER PARK NEWS ---- (5/5/16) Toronto's Wild Water Kingdom To Remain Closed for 2016 (MORE...) (4/22/16) Zoombezi Bay Changing Tahitian Twister to SoundSurfer (MORE...) (3/8/16) Great Wolf Lodge California Is Now Open (MORE...) (3/1/16) Raging Waves Waterpark Adding Wonambi for 2016 (MORE...)
Alottawata Water Park (Ottawa area, Canada)
???? - New Park - (11/30/12) ProSlide says that their plans to build the Alotta Water Park in Ottawa are still in the works... but also still on hold for the time being. According to this interview with the CEO, they are still planning the park out and intend on building it. However the target opening date has been pushed back several times, and was last thought to be opening in 2014, but that may still be pushed back one more year to 2015.
The Beach (Cincinnati, OH)
2016 - Nothing is known at this point in time.
Calypso Park (Ottawa, Canada)
2016 - Nothing is known at this point in time, but nothing new was added in 2015 either.
Camelback Waterpark & Lodge - (PA)
Gaylord Rockies Hotel & Convention Center
???? - Indoor / Outdoor Waterpark - (2/10/14) The Denver Post reports that the Gaylord Rockies Hotel & Conference Center near the Denver International Airport will add a massive indoor / outdoor waterpark to the resort. With heated water, they estimate that the ourdoor portion of the waterpark could remain open from March through to October.
Golfland Sunsplash - Roseville
???? - New Waterslide - Planned - (7/8/15) According to an article at ThemeParkOverload the new Riptide slide at Golfland SunSplash Roseville will open in Late July. According to the article, the park let on that the new slide tower was designed to accommodate a second slide to be added at a future date.
Great Wolf Lodge - California (Garden Grove, CA)
2016 - NOW OPEN - (3/8/16) The new Great Wolf Lodge California is now open, located just about a mile down Harbor Blvd from Disneyland, offering Southern Californians as well as tourists the ability to enjoy year-round waterslide fun for the first time. Unlike in Florida where the waterparks in Orlando are able to stay open year-round, SoCal's waterparks are all subject to the same seasonal operations calendar as the rest of the county, with most typically opening in late spring and closing down by the end of September. A fun video showing off the indoor waterpark slides in action was posted by our friends at Behind the Thrills. Hopefully one of these days Screamscape will get out to California again to try this latest Great Wolf Lodge location out, as we have reviewed two other locations so far and loved the Williamsburg and Charlotte locations. (Follow the links to see our reviews of those locations to get an idea of what is in store for you at the new California location)
Great Wolf Lodge: Georgia - Proposed New Resort - (2/21/15) That newly proposed Great Wolf Lodge south of Atlanta just got a little more interesting... not because of the resort itself, but because of the area they are looking to build. It seems Peachtree City is about 10 minutes from Senoia, GA... which has been gaining a lot of fame over the last few years as the place where much of the hit AMC series, The Walking Dead is filmed. Take a quick look at this Google Maps link... and see that main street looking area in the middle? That's the infamous town of Woodbury. Go south from there, across the train tracks and to the left a little but and you'll see an interesting neighborhood of homes built around a small lake, with 6 large solar panels and all surrounded by a giant zombie-proof wall. That my friends is a little place known in the comics as the Alexandria Safe Zone. I don't know if they will use the same name on the series of not, but this is where you can expect the cast to end up before the end of this current season. Oh... and if you watched the mid-season opener two weeks ago, Noah's neighborhood was actually shot in Peachtree City itself I'm told. (ok... this has nothing to do with anything... but just another fun Walking Dead link... you can find the site of Terminus in Atlanta itself, just across the freeway from the Braves stadium here.) If that wasn't enough of a "Hollywood" style lure for you, the infamous Pinewood Studios from the UK has also just opened Pinewood Atlanta Studios in mid-2013 just to the north of Peachtree City in Fayette County. Marvel's upcomming Ant-Man movie was the first major film product to use the new facility in 2014. So it seems Peachtree City, which was built as a sort of quiet get-away golf-cart community, is finding itself quickly being thrust more and more into the public eye... no matter if they want it or not as the area finds itself hosting more tourists than they ever had before. The addition of a new Great Wolf Lodge is just another part of this, but it helps to understand a bit more about what may draw the general public to this area. With that in mind I'll leave you with one more shot from Google Maps, this time showing off the existing Dolce Atlanta Peachtree Hotel which they want to convert into the Georgia's Great Wolf Lodge. (2/19/15) According to this article, Great Wolf Lodge is looking into building a waterpark resort in the Peachtree City area and has been requesting a zoning change for the potential site, though the locals are apparently not happy with the plans. While they may be able to move ahead with the current zoning on the site, the zoning change would allow them to build taller buildings on the site, and buildout into an area currently set as a property buffer. From the sound of the article, the site is actually currently home to the Dolce Atlanta-Peachtree Hotel and Resort, and they would keep some of the existing structure and convert it for use for the waterpark and resort. This is interesting, as I had not heard of Great Wolf Lodge was looking into this site to the South of Atlanta before. Previous investigations for building a GWL in Georgia looked at sites to the North-East of Atlanta. They may have refocused their efforts to sites south of the city after last year's announcement of the Port Royal waterpark resort project north of ATL in Jasper.

2016 - Wonambi - (3/1/16) The Raging Waves waterpark in Yorkville, Illinois is adding Wonambi in 2016, a slide that will feature an intense high-g spiral drop before plunging down into a half-pipe style wall element.
Rapids Water Park (West Palm Beach, FL)
2016 - Brain Drain - (1/28/16) Screamscape sources tell us that the Rapids Water Park in West Palm Beach, FL has confirmed a new slide on their website called Brain Drain, which will feature a drop pod at the top of the slide. A local reader has also driven by the park and seen packets of new purple, orange, blue and pink bodyslide pieces on site currently. We hope to know more soon about what the park is building.
Sahara Sam's (New Jersey)
2016 - Indoor Waterpark Expansion - (11/4/15) Sahara Sam's waterpark has announced a $4 million, 10,000sqft expansion of the year-round indoor section of the park is on the way for 2016. The expansion will feature two new water slides (Proslide Mat Racers) and a family leisure pool and be connected to the existing 70,000 sqft indoor waterpark section. You can read more details on the expansion over at CoasterChitChat.

Texas Typhoon (Katy, TX)
2016 - New Waterpark - (1/8/16) A new waterpark named Typhoon Texas is under construction in Katy, TX, just West of Houston, and essentially just across the street from the giant Katy Mills mall. Look for it to open in time for Memorial Day weekend. You can see the park layout posted to the official Typhoon Texas website.
Water World Colorado (Denver, Colorado)
Park News - (1/10/11) If you're a waterpark fan, you've probably heard about the infamous Voyage of the Center of the Earth water attraction installed at Water World near Denver, CO. Since it is a dark ride / water flume combination, video footage of the attraction itself has always been a little hard to come by. Check out this combination of footage from the ride posted to YouTube by Sally Corp. It includes some marketings videos, the TV ad for the ride as well as POV footage of the attraction itself.
2016 - Nothing is known at this point in time... but nothing new was added in 2013, 2014 or 2015

Wild Rivers Irvine (Irvine, CA)
???? - New Park - Status Unknown - (2/17/14) Interesting note… the latest note on the Wild Rivers Irvine website explains that their funding fell through and while they were unable to get a new park ready for the 2014 season, they have found replacement funding and are now planning on opening the new Wild Rivers waterpark in 2015. (10/18/13) Bad news folks… according to the latest rumors there are funding problems with both of the proposed new Wild Rivers waterparks, so don't look for either to open in 2014 or anytime soon until they get their ducks in a row. (8/2/12) Wild Rivers may return in May 2014 according to the OCWeekly. The Orange County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the lease of a 17 acre site once part of the former El Toro Marine Corps Air Station, to Wild Rivers to build and operate an all new waterpark.
Wild Rivers Temecula (Temecula, CA)
???? - New Park - Status Unknown - (10/18/13) Bad news folks… according to the latest rumors there are funding problems with both of the proposed new Wild Rivers waterparks, so don't look for either to open in 2014 or anytime soon until they get their ducks in a row. (1/30/13) Construction on the new Wild Rivers Temecula park is set to begin this March, as they plan for a May 2014 grand opening. Financing is said to be in place and they are ready to go. (1/16/13) According to the local news, the developers behind Wild Rivers Temecula say that they are now ready to move forward and are planning to start construction on the new waterpark the first week of March. They have yet to confirm if this six month delay in the start of the construction will push back the opening of the water park to 2015 or if they will still be able to open in 2014. (9/11/12) The new Wild Rivers park planning to open in Temecula has pushed back their timetable and is now planning to open in 2014. (5/10/12) Temecula has agreed to sell a 19 acre site of city own land for the building of Wild Rivers Temecula, which now plans to be ready to open in time for Summer 2013. (5/9/12) The local news reports that the city of Temecula will vote on a deal to sell property to allow for the construction of Wild Rivers Temecula if the group can get their permits in order and start construction by this October and have the park ready to open by Summer 2013. (2/15/12) The local news reports that the former management of Irvine's Wild Rivers waterpark is in talks with the city of Temecula over a deal to build a new waterpark on 32 acres of city owned property at the NW corner of Diaz Road and Dendy Parkway. This group is not connected with the former Splash Canyon proposal group, but they do intend to revive the old Wild Rivers brand name for the new park if approved. (1/4/12) Anyone want to build a water park? The city of Temecula is hoping to lure in a developer to take over the site they set aside for the Splash Canyon Temecula waterpark that died out in 2010 due to lack of financing. The city is apparently willing to re-approve the expired planning approvals for the project in order to lure a new developer to leap in and get the project moving. Good timing too as the SoCal area now has one less waterpark with the destruction of Wild Rivers in Irvine.
Wilderness Resort (Wisconsin Dells)
Wilderness at the Smokies (Sevierville, TN)
Check out the Screamscape review of the awesome Wilderness at the Smokies Hotel & Waterpark Resort.
Wild Water Kingdom (Toronto, Canada)2016 - STILL CLOSED FOR THE SEASON
2017 - REOPENING AFTER REFURBISHMENT - (5/5/16) Just a heads up, but a reader sent word that Toronto's Wild Water Kingdom waterpark will remain closed for the 2016 season "for major renovations & expansion with new exciting rides and attractions". (5/29/15) Toronto's Wild Water Kingdom waterpark apparently closed down for the 2015 season in order to perform park wide renovations that should see it ready to reopen next year for the 2016 season.
Wildwater Kingdom (Aurora, OH)
2016 - Nothing is known at this point in time... but the waterpark has been suffering from a decade long dry spell and hasn't opened a new attraction since the wave pool in 2006. It is LONG overdue for something.
Zoombezi Bay (Columbus, OH)
2016 - SoundSurfer - (4/22/16) I'm told that the longest slide at the Columbus Zoo's Zoombezi Bay waterpark (Tahitian Twister) has now been enhanced and renamed SoundSurfer. The newly renovated raft slide puts up to 5 guests in a raft and now features a full sensory experience of sight and sounds, including 34 color changing LED lights, 5 high impact speakers, a fog machine and a mist-filled splashdown. Guests can customize their experience by choosing one of eight different light and sound options before they start their ride. Look for the waterpark to open on May 21st.

I dont know,boxexpert.Of course you are German,and certainly entitled to your opinion,but I have seen lots of German people who enthusiacically support fighters like Artur Abraham.Actually,I usually have the feeling that -as you put it-"real" German fighters have the least support of fighters who appear on a given fight card in Germany.
I can still-vividly-remember those bunch of ****s behind me who were shouting insults to Michel Trabant in his fight against Rivera.The American had knocked Trabant down.Nevertheless Trabant came back trying his best to turn the tables,and those ****s-by the way Germans-were constantly shouting insults towards their compatriot.I for my part really admired Trabant for his game but vain try to make Rivera pay for that knockdown.
I almost started a fight with those bums.
Of course I always support fighters from home country,but I also root for my favourite fighters irrespective of their origin.
As for Hoffman I have seen of his fights live,but I have never seen much support for him in a fight arena.
I wouldnt argue the toss with you about it,but I dont think that anybody has ever overrated Timo Hoffman -neither in Germany nor in any other country.

I am 17 and my girlfriend is 16. She lives in a horrible house where everyone but her 9 year old autistic sister yells at her, especially her mom. Today my my girlfriend woke up feeling sick and her mom told her to "Get her worthless ass out of bed and get ready or else I will drag you to school in your pajamas." I don't know what to do. Please help. And taking her from her home is not really an option.
Views: 411
Ask your favorite adult at home, school, or church what to do. Especially at school or church, where they are trained to help in situations just like this. An adult at school or church will put your girlfriend's family in touch with people trained to look out for abused children and help their parents be better parents.
Well said.
I dated a girl in a dysfunctional and abusive household. You need to know that you can't fix this no matter how much you might wish to. Do tell an adult at school or at church if you go to church.
My other suggestion is for the both of you to work on your grades as an exit strategy after high school for her. If she can move away to college. There she can get counseling and change her environment. Between how an then, listen to her and find someone YOU can talk with to vent off the stress.
We both go to a private college prep school, so not going to college is not an option for either of us.
The college Prep school will have councilors that can help.
As to not going to college the prep school WILL have councilors that can help for this also. Once one is 18 it is a simple matter of a bus ride across the country to college. The parents have no say in this. Debt to get out of a bad place and to get an education and a career is worth it. There will be hardship loans available, depending on your circumstances and grades even scholarships. Seriously not going to college is a choice you are both making given the loans and grants available.
You do not even have to move away to college. Once you're 18 you have the say and only say in who you see. All she has to do is tell her parents she does not want to see them anymore and leave it at that. If they're going to pay for college then it's a bit more complicated as, depending on family income, she may not get Government grants and loans for college. An alternative is to move out of the home upon HS graduation and live on her own for a year, then attend college after applying for grants, scholarships, and low-income loans in that order.
Very good point.
Most of the damage is done. I like the idea of planning an escape route.
...and beyond that, I don't know. If it were physical abuse, there's help from the law. As it is... maybe someone in counseling would know.
She may have a case for mental abuse. Not sure but it would depend on the State's laws.
There's two sides to every story. And I'd advise the OP not to play Sir Galahad.
I've seen a teenager turn into a royal pain because of plain old-fashioned sibling rivalry. A favored teen tactic is to start and keep on doing stuff that is known to annoy the parents, trying to get the attention of being yelled at, if nothing else. "I'm not feeling well, I don't want to get up" is a classic tactic. (Been gamed by that one.)
Good point. I doubt that if the mom said "sweetie it is time to wake up and get dressed for school" the girl would have gotten out of bed. The side the OP is getting is coming from a 16 year old girl and teenage girls tend to revel in drama, not listen to their parents and exaggerate every wrong that is done to them (actual or perceived). All of this girls actions will be left out of her side of the story. Did she stay up until 3am the night before and her parents kept telling her to go to bed?
She is highly bipolar and does get actually sick fairly often and every time, even if she is puking her brains out, her mom yells at her saying she is faking it. She is never dramatic in any sense and works on making sure she never is. Her parents usually both go to bed at 9 or so because that is when they put her little sister to bed. She goes to bed at about 10:30, but can't fall asleep for a few hours because her mind is racing because of being bipolar. I am also bipolar, but I take meds for it so I can control my thoughts more easily. Her mom truly is just crazy when it is just them at the house.
Has she been formally diagnosed by a mental healthcare professional? If so, you or she should tell the therapist about the abuse. If not, she should ask her mother to make her a doctor's appointment, even with a generalist (pediatrician, internist, general practitioner). If her mother refuses, someone should bring it to the attention of an adult at school.
Is there a counselor at your school?

I'm relatively new to the bike comminuting thing; Ive only been doing it for about four months now. I love it and have a great routine going. I Bike 21 miles to work and carpool back home with my friend from work. Bike in the back of her truck of course/. Anyway
What should I be thinking about on the high ways when it starts freezing outside? Or should I just play it safe, give in and drive. Cars and semis already make me kind of nervous as it is with out the ice.
And also my tires say they are 700x32/37c, so are they 32s or 37s? Would I notice a real difference if I bought narrower tires?
thanks for any input youre willing to give

HILLSBORO, Ore. (AP) — Jurors have found an Aloha, Ore., man guilty of murder in the strangling death of his 78-year-old mother.
The Oregonian reports that 55-year-old Michael Lee Reineke was convicted Wednesday in Washington County Circuit Court. Prosecutors say he used a telephone cord to kill Norma Louise Gordon last June in her home.
Defense lawyer Ethan Levi says he plans to appeal.

Home sales were on the upswing in August for the second month in a row as first-time buyers rushed to lock in low mortgage loan rates and take advantage of shrinking prices.
Local experts aren't ready to declare that the battered housing market has hit bottom, but prices are low enough now to lure droves of first-time buyers and real estate investors looking to purchase from the county's inventory of starter homes.
"For first-time homebuyers that have been thinking about it," said Tracie DeMars, an agent with Re/Max Equity Group in Vancouver, "there's no better time. They're starting to see that now."
Last month, 511 new and existing houses sold in Clark County, compared with 375 sales in August 2010, according to a Monday report issued by "benchmarks," an arm of Vancouver-based Riley & Marks Inc. appraisal firm. The 36 percent increase in August sales represented the second consecutive month the local market experienced a year-over-year increase. In July, 512 homes sold countywide, up 53.8 percent from the 333 houses sold in July 2010.
Steadily declining prices were part of the lure. August's median sales price — half sold for more, half for less — was $185,503 for all new and existing houses sold in Clark County, down 13 percent from the median of $216,115 in the same month last year.
While the first-time buyers believe their equity will grow at this point, investors hope for some turn-around profit or cash flow from rent, said Kale Dunning, a broker with Dunning and Associates at the Salmon Creek office of Coldwell Banker Seal.
"The investors' market is as important right now as the first-time homebuyers' market," he said.
DeMars said most buyers are looking at houses priced under $200,000, while sales activity remains slow in the higher-priced housing markets. The steadily declining median price reflects both dropping home values and a lack of sales at the upper end of the market, she said.
The lack of demand for housing outside the starter market has meant less action for area homebuilders, although DeMars said a few local companies are building and selling houses for the starter-home market.
"It's sad to say, but it's still cheaper to buy an already built house than to have one built," she said.
Local homebuilding has been nearly halved so far this year, as measured by building permits for single-family houses. In the eight months ending in August, 233 permits were issued in unincorporated Clark County, down from 415 permits handed out during the same period in 2010.
Dunning said he is encouraged by signs of recovery in the existing home sales market. However, he pointed out that last year's July and August sales were artificially low because demand dropped after a federal tax credit for home purchases ended on June 30, 2010.
In August, "We got over 500 closed deals. That's not knocking it out of the park," he said. "It's a little out of context from the perspective of where sales were one year ago."
The local housing market peaked in 2005, when 1,339 homes were sold in Clark County in August. By August 2008, home sales were down by 62 percent to 506 houses sold.
Foreclosures an issue
DeMars said local real estate agents don't expect the pace of home sales to pick up speed until Clark County's large inventory of distressed properties, primarily bank-owned properties, works its way through the system.
"I pulled up 136 listings for a client and only eight of them weren't short sales," she said.
Last month, Clark County continued to hold the third-highest foreclosure rate of the state's 39 counties, with one out of every 572 homes in some stage of default, according to California-based RealtyTrac Inc. However, the total number of county homes in foreclosure dropped to 286 units in August, down almost 15 percent from 336 houses in July, and down 46 percent from the 533 foreclosures in August 2010.
DeMars added that homes being marketed as short sales — in which the mortgage holder accepts a selling price that is less than the outstanding debt on the property — could soon become bank-owned properties through the foreclosure process.
"I think we're going to see foreclosures coming through for at least the next couple of years because there are still so many short sale" listings, she said.
DeMars said short-sale properties present problems in that a prospective homebuyer can't lock in on an interest rate when they submit a bid. The properties can also take between three and four months to sell, she said.
"They're still moving very slow," she said.

I have a WebDAV server running on a linux server through Apache, which I am then attempting to map on a windows machine.
The mapping works fine, I provide my credentials and it logs me in, but the windows machines are unable to remember my credentials and I am forced to hit the "Login" button every time I open a new document, as well as when the machine is turned on or woken up from sleep mode. On machines running anything lower then Windows 7, I am also forced to manually type my username and password into the login box for every resource used in a document (such as images in a word document and similar).
My apache setup uses Digest authentication with the following config;
Alias /group /home/webdav/group
<Location /group>
DAV On
AuthType Digest
AuthName "group"
AuthUserFile /home/webdav/users/group-password
Require valid-user
I don't think the config is the reason for this odd behavior, but more that windows is unable to automatically respond to requests for login credentials (and in the situation with the machines running Vista and lower that they can't even save them for some odd reason).

Halo 4 Getting New Multiplayer Modes With FFA Throwback Playlist
Written Thursday, November 22, 2012 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
343 Industries is set to add new multiplayer modes to Halo 4 next week, as Free-For-All Throwback is set to add Lone Wolf-only variants of Oddball and King of the Hill, doing away with the teamplay aspect of those very modes and giving good Halo 4 players a chance to snatch up all the glory for themselves. Beware though... They'll be pretty damn taxing for casual Halo-ites.
Suffice it to say, we won't be getting involved. The new playlists land on Monday 26th November, giving skilled players the opportunity to engage in something truly tough and challenging. Over to Halo Waypoint's Jessica Shea, throwing down the gauntlet: "If you've been dominating these modes with teammates, see how the game changes when it's every Spartan for themselves."
Haven, Adrift, Complex, Abandon and Solace will be the maps on offer, with support for up to 8-players to get involved. Oddball will require a score of 100 points to bag a win, while King of the Hill demands 50 points. Both FFA Throwback modes have a 12-minute time limit. Prepare for Halo 4's FFA Throwback playlists on Monday.

Dodgers 6, Diamondbacks 5, 10 innings
PHOENIX (AP)—Tony Abreu had a nice surprise waiting for him when he returned to the Los Angeles Dodgers' clubhouse.
Two Arizona fans wanted to give Abreu the ball he had hit for his first major league homer—a solo shot that lifted the Dodgers to a 6-5 victory over the Diamondbacks in 10 innings Tuesday night.
In exchange for his home run ball, Abreu traded an autographed ball and one of teammate Ramon Martinez' bats. Abreu, a rookie, doesn't have enough bats to give away one of his own.
"It's going to be a souvenir in my house," Abreu said through an interpreter. "It brings me a lot of joy. I'm just going to keep it there."
Abreu hit a 1-1 changeup from Doug Slaten (3-1) into the left field seats with two outs in the 10th.
"I left it over the plate, up," Slaten said. "It was right out there on a tee for him. He took advantage of it."
With the victory, the Dodgers took over first place in the tightly contested NL West, a half-game ahead of Arizona and San Diego. The Dodgers beat the Diamondbacks for the sixth time in seven games.
"Arizona is a balanced team," said closer Takashi Saito, who pitched the 10th for his 21st save in 22 chances. "They don't have many weaknesses, so tough games like today are always going to be the case."
Jonathan Broxton (3-2) pitched two scoreless innings for the victory. Rudy Seanez and Mark Hendrickson also pitched well as the Dodger bullpen shut out Arizona for six innings.
Despite the results to date, the Diamondbacks don't believe the Dodgers have their number.
"We know we're just as good as they are, and we know we can beat them," said Mark Reynolds, who hit one of three Arizona homers. "It just comes down to a key hit here, a key hit there. We just didn't do it tonight."
Abreu had been starting at third base recently, but he went to the bench Tuesday when manager Grady Little moved Nomar Garciaparra from first base to make room for hot-hitting rookie James Loney.
In his first start as the Dodgers' regular first baseman, Loney fell a triple shy of the cycle and drove in three runs. Loney hit a two-run homer in the second, an RBI double in the fourth and a single in the eighth.
"I'm just hitting them in the right spots," Loney said. "Definitely, when there are opportunities presented, you want to cash in."
Garciaparra started at third for the first time since 2005, when he was with the Chicago Cubs. He was 0-for-5 and struck out with the bases loaded in the ninth inning. Garciaparra is 4-for-23 on the Dodgers' 10-game road trip.
"Right now, he's having a tough time, but he will get through it," Little said.
Eric Byrnes, Chris Young and Reynolds each homered for the Diamondbacks.
Byrnes led off the first with his team-high 13th homer. Then Stephen Drew tripled and scored on Orlando Hudson's groundout to make it 2-0.
The Dodgers tied it in the second on a two-run homer by Loney, his third in 12 games since he was promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas.
Young hit his 11th homer in the second to give the Diamondbacks a 3-2 lead.
Loney added an RBI double in the fourth, when the Dodgers scored three times to take a 5-3 lead. Starter Chad Billingsley drove in the other two runs with a double to the wall in right center field.
In the bottom of the inning, Reynolds hit a two-run homer to left, his fifth in 35 games since he was recalled from Double-A Mobile.
That made it 5-5, and that score stood until the 10th. The Diamondbacks didn't put another runner in scoring position after the fourth.
"Obviously, it's a tough game to lose, especially the way we started out scoring some runs," Arizona manager Bob Melvin said. "We had some energy early, put some runs on the board. They had one more."
Gonzalez gave up five runs on six hits, walking two and striking out two.
Garciaparra played in his 1,265th game—and his 35th at third base. … Byrnes' leadoff homer was his third this year and the seventh of his career. … Gonzalez is expected to go to the bullpen when Randy Johnson returns to the rotation on Thursday.
- Jason Giambi unceremoniously released, slammed by Oakland
