MLB Player, Manager Blame Citi Field Shake Shack for Food Poisoning
Grub Street suspects it was probably something else.
Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg says a Shake Shack burger he ate at Citi Field got him so violently ill that he lost six pounds in two days. "A couple of coaches took a bite and didn't like what they saw and threw the rest away," he told reporters before yesterday's game. Separately — but if true, very much related — Mets first baseman Lucas Duda was hospitalized Friday afternoon before returning to practice over the weekend, and he says he ate an undercooked Shack burger around the same time.
The Mets say they're investigating the matter. Shake Shack, meanwhile, is sympathetic, if confused: "We've served thousands of guests at our Citi Field Shack over the past week, and this is the first we've heard of any issue whatsoever," spokesman Greg Waters said yesterday.
Grub's advice: Give the Shack another try, guys. As Meat Hook co-owner Tom Mylan wisely once said, "It's the contaminated salad that's going to kill you, it's not going to be the fucking hamburger."

Sign up for Office 365

Can the Office 365 calendar appointment settings (template) be changed? We have a physician who is into Pulse scheduling. For example, 3 appointments at 8:00am, 3 appointments at 8:10 and then 1 appointment at 8:30am. This type of scheduling is used at some medical clinics in the U.S. It is too time consuming to change the time slot in each appointment window.
Thanks for the feedback.
Hello Wendy,
This isn't actually something you customize Office 365 for, this is something you'd customize Outlook to do. As such, we unfortunately don't provide the support for it, as we don't support Outlook itself. However, I think you can accomplish what you're looking to do.
Outlook uses the default form IPM.Appointment for all new appointments. These dictate things like the default 30 hour window and the like. In Outlook 2010 you can use the More Commands option to turn on your Developer Tab. From the Developer Tab you can design a new form based on the Appointment template, and modify it as you please. And then once you've done that you can go to the Folder List, right click on the Calendar, choose Properties, and tell it to use your new custom appointment form instead of IPM.Appointment.
Unfortunately, there's no way to work around this in OWA.

A partnership between Milestone Films and Oscilloscope Laboratories will deliver some twenty-five films on DVD over the next three years. Known for restoring and releasing nearly lost classics, as well as new foreign and independent fare, Dennis Doros and Amy Heller's Milestone Films will launch the Oscilloscope DVD deal with the upcoming release of Kent Mackenzie's "The Exiles."
Likeminded insiders at both Oscilloscope and Milestone are touting the deal as an ideal union, saying that each company passionately focuses on artier films.
In the wake of the demise of the venerable New Yorker Films, Doros and Heller searched long and hard to find a new DVD home for their movies. Adam Yauch's Oscilloscope, Doros told indieWIRE, stood head and shoulders above the ten to fifteen other companies they considered working with.
Citing, "the energy, the optimism and the enthusiasm" of the Oscilloscope team, Doros added, "We really think that if we bring out the best films we are going to do [well] and they feel the same way, that if you spend time and energy and talent on it you'll do well."
"We're very similar companies," O-Scope's David Fenkel told indieWIRE, "We're driven by the love of films."
Milestone has found success with an array of classics, ranging from Charles Burnett's "Killer of Sheep," Mikhail Kalatozov's "I Am Cuba," Marcel Ophuls' "The Sorrow and the Pity" and Alfred Hitchcock's "Bon Voyage" and "Aventure Malgache."
O-Scope head Adam Yauch commented, in a statement, "The Milestone team does amazing work. Clearly they care deeply about the films they choose to release, and how they release them. And to be quite frank, I'm a little envious that they beat us to the punch on, 'I Am Cuba'."
Mackenzie's "The Exiles, the 1961 story of a day in the life of twenty-something Native Americans who move from the reservation to the city, will be released on DVD in November. Also upcoming is the landmark 1978 queer documentary "Word is Out: Stories of Some of Our Lives."
For Oscilloscope, the move signifies an expansion into a great number of direct DVD releases. Fenkel told indieWIRE that Oscilloscope is aiming to acquire 5 - 10 films a year for DVD. For movies that he and his colleagues like, but might not fit a traditional theatrical model, they will rely more on non-theatrical books, film festivals and the DVD release.
"There are very few companies that consistently just release films that the owners love," Oscilloscope's Fenkel reiterated.

International Business: Preserving brand strength in global markets by following a few simple steps
A shortened version of the following article was originally published in a regional business magazine. However, that magazine ironically added large, red, Google mistranslations to the article before printing. The author is grateful that the Deseret News has never done anything of this nature to his articles. The magazine in question would have likewise avoided such a damaging blunder if it had simply followed the tips presented within the article itself, which you can read here.
Marketing managers often laughingly relate how Coca-Cola allegedly committed a huge blunder when entering the Chinese market. Reportedly, its brand name was translated to mean "bite the wax tadpole." Imagine the implications! Did Chinese consumers wonder if the beverage tasted like wax, tadpoles or pond water? Fortunately for Coca-Cola, this gaffe is merely urban legend.
The online myth debunker Snopes.com explains that before Coca-Cola's official entry into China, some shopkeepers independently created signs with Chinese characters that sounded like "Coca-Cola" but had nonsensical meanings such as "bite the wax tadpole" and "female horse stuffed with wax." However, Coca-Cola understood the importance of preserving its brand value in international markets. Before entering China in 1928, the beverage icon took great pains to ensure its brand would not be proverbially lost in translation. Ultimately, the company chose the characters pronounced "K'o K'ou K'o LÊ," which literally mean, "let the mouth rejoice" or "happiness in the mouth." This more thoughtful translation definitely helps to preserve the Coca-Cola brand, especially in light of the company's more contemporary "Open Happiness" campaign.
Successful companies like Coca-Cola work hard to differentiate and position their brands. Coca-Cola preserved its brand strength in Chinese by understanding its brand message, working with skilled professional linguists, conveying that message effectively to the linguists and then maintaining some flexibility when a perfect brand translation was not immediately apparent.
When taking brands global, companies — and specifically marketing managers — must know how to effectively convey their brand messages and any preferences to their language service providers. Otherwise, the translated message could cause significant embarrassment.
Utah-based company preserves its global brand
Aribex is a Utah-based company that understands the importance of preserving its brand message in translation. Aribex efforts in multiple market segments are geared toward being "the worldwide leader in handheld X-ray." The latest models in the company's NOMAD® product line are sleek, lightweight and uniquely positioned in the market. Product manager Marc Burrows realizes that a handheld device such as the NOMAD can be a terminology challenge when localizing marketing materials.
"Some languages have words in X-ray diagnostics that mean 'mobile,' 'cordless' or 'portable,' but not 'handheld,' " explains Burrows. "The fact that the NOMAD is handheld is a crucial differentiator for Aribex. All larger, traditional X-ray machines are either fixed or mobile. However, none are small, truly portable and — except the NOMAD — able to be operated safely in hand, rather than remotely. For this reason, we cannot settle for approximate translations that do not convey our branding message. If necessary, rather than dilute our brand, we will choose to invent a new hybrid word to convey the correct meaning."
Communicating preferences effectively
Global marketing managers need to communicate unique linguistic preferences up front to their language service providers (i.e. translation companies) just as successful managers at Coca-Cola and Aribex have done. Waiting to express such preferences after the translation is complete is like waiting to select color preferences after a room has already been painted. Clear communication of linguistic preferences from the beginning will save both time and money.

[Broadcast from the White House at 10 p.m.]
My fellow countrymen:
I come before the American people tonight at a time of great crisis. The crisis of Pearl Harbor was the result of action by a foreign enemy. The crisis tonight is caused by a group of men within our own country who place their private interests above the welfare of the nation.
As Americans you have the right to look to the President for leadership in this grave emergency. I have accepted the responsibility, as I have accepted it in other emergencies.
Every citizen of this country has the right to know what has brought about this crisis. It is my desire to report to you what has already taken place and the action that I intend to take.

The 21-year-old Canadian international and TFC starlet is not surprised by his own early success, and neither is his coach.
The 21-year-old midfield phenom was re-introduced to the local soccer community in 2012 when he played a season for SC Toronto of the third-tier Canadian Soccer League after returning home from a prolonged stint in the youth ranks of Uruguay's Club Nacional.
TFC Academy's senior team also played in the CSL last year, and it is of little surprise that Osorio was invited to join the MLS club's youth ranks after his 11 goals in 17 league matches for SCT in 2012.
The Toronto-area native trained with TFC Academy over the fall and winter, and, in a stroke of good fortune, was called in by first team head coach Ryan Nelsen to help make up the numbers in preseason.
The rest, as they say, is history.
"I could make myself a hero and say, 'Yeah, I saw it,'" Nelsen quipped when asked last week whether he predicted Osorio's rapid ascent into becoming one of TFC's most important players. "We obviously saw it. We don't pull people out of the academy for the sake of it. You do see things, and we saw things early on that we liked.
"Did we know he'd have an impact like this? No. I'd say no. Did we think he was going to have an impact? Yes, but it was just determining when and what time."
That Osorio went from training ground fodder to budding local star in just over a half-season provides a feel-good story for yet another rough TFC campaign. But while past seasons have felt like lost causes in the tragic history that defines the club, 2013 has shown a bit of promise as the team is building around young players who can grow together as a unit.
Osorio is very much part of that group.
"His progression has been really, really quick, and generally the ones who do it really quickly kind of figure it out," Nelsen said. "They figure it out quickly and they work hard and they put their heads down and they listen, they learn.
"And they just naturally become good players."
That Osorio is now known as simply a "good player" without the qualifier of being young is a big step up for a kid that was on nobody's radar just a few short months ago. And while his eligibility for MLS Rookie of the Year is ambiguous -- his single season in the CSL could render him unqualified -- the fact that he has what it takes to even be in the conversation is something that the player himself always had confidence in accomplishing.
"It's a big surprise, but at the same time it's not, because I knew if I worked hard that good things will happen," Osorio said. "I know I have the talent to play in this league, so if I work hard and improve the weaknesses that I have and make them better I know I'll be able to play in this league."
It's that drive to succeed that Nelsen says will help Osorio continue his progression as a top young player in MLS. More importantly, it's what will help TFC as a whole, as an improved Osorio means a more dynamic attacking threat from a side that is severely lacking in that regard.
"He's still got so much to learn, because that position in this league is so key, it's so critical," Nelsen said. "He's got so much to learn, but what I love about the kid as well, and I've said this all the time, is that he comes to work, he just listens, he works hard and generally only good things happen."
As for the player, his blistering start to the season sees him second in rookie scoring with five goals so far. But is he thinking about any possible individual plaudits?
"Not at all," Osorio shrugged. "I focus on winning with Toronto FC."

Oral Roberts Tribute: Christian Leaders Remember
Prominent Christian leaders reflected on the legacy of healing evangelist Oral Roberts by describing him as "a man of God" and a pioneer in televangelism and healing ministry.
Evangelist Billy Graham, founder of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
Joel Osteen, pastor of Lakewood Church in Houston
Missions leader David Shibley, founder of Global Advance
When I was in high school I was privileged to meet Oral Roberts and know his family. In my first visit to their home, a copy of Oswald Chambers' classic devotional My Utmost for His Highest was on the coffee table. That describes his life and peerless evangelistic ministry. Oral Roberts was his utmost for His highest.
Healing evangelist Benny Hinn
Through the years I have often thought of the standard he has set for so many ministers and believers to follow, and on this day of his glorious home-going, it is once again a time for all of us to reflect even more upon his tremendous impact. God overshadowed his life, even before he entered the world at 11 a.m., January 24, 1918, in Pontotoc County, Okla. What a journey he made in his 91 years as he traveled around the world as a true pioneer for the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Only heaven will reveal how many hearts he has pointed toward heaven, how many homes have been revolutionized through his seed-faith teaching, and how many ears have heard his faith-filled phrase, "Expect a miracle!" God has used him to open doors that were once considered closed to the miracle-working power of the gospel, and wherever I travel, I have been ever thankful for the trail he blazed.
I ask all my partners to be in prayer for his family during these days of bereavement. And while we join his loved ones in mourning the loss of this great trailblazer of the faith, we also celebrate his reunion in heaven with his beloved wife, Evelyn, other family members, the hosts who accepted our Lord Jesus as Savior, and most importantly, with the Lord Himself, whom our brother in Christ served so faithfully during his memorable lifetime!
Oral Roberts University Board Chair Mart Green
Bishop T.D. Jakes, pastor of The Potter's House in Dallas
Trinity Broadcasting Network founder Paul Crouch
This was major news for the little town of Rapid City, as Dr. Roberts was the preeminent healing evangelist of that day. I invited him to be a guest on my news program, which he graciously accepted. Little did I know that 25 years later our paths would once again cross as Jan and I had the joy and privilege of interviewing Dr. Roberts for the first of many times on the Praise the Lord program.
We will always be grateful for Dr. Roberts' enthusiasm and support for TBN, and will forever treasure the messages of inspiration he gave to Jan and me personally as he encouraged us to expand the vision and outreach of TBN to reach the whole wide world. His prayers and wisdom helped strengthen our faith in times of trial and difficulty. We shared his sorrow when his sweet wife, Evely, went home to be with the Lord a few years ago, and were blessed to see that he still had the desire to continue sharing the message God gave to him until his assignment was finished.
Now, his day of graduation has arrived, and Jan and I rejoice that he is in the presence of Jesus enjoying the rich rewards of a life spent in faithful service to our Savior. We will miss his wonderful smile, encouraging words and precious prayers. He cannot be replaced, but he will always remain with us through his spiritual legacy and powerful, life-changing messages of faith and healing.

University Avenue's best Asian restaurants
This week's Dish review dubbed On's Thai Kitchen on University at Snelling in St. Paul as a restaurant worth enduring the hassle of LRT construction (Work is now being done between Emerald and Hamline, with the 'dozers moving on to the rest of University through the summer.)
As businesses struggle with reduced traffic, here are five more favorite Asian restaurants worthy of your support.
5. Bangkok Thai (315 University Ave.)
One of the most authentic Thai spots in town, Bangkok offers true Thai eating, tucked into the back of a Asian grocery store. Just be forewarned: The curries pack some real fire!
4. Mai Village (394 University Ave.)
Mai Village takes its splendor seriously: Diners cross over a wooden bridge, past a waterfall, and over a koi pond to get to their tables. The space is luxurious in its hand-carving and silk embroidery and bamboo stalks. They have all the requisite spring rolls and such, plus a full liquor license, but to match the extravagance of the space, be sure to order Seven Courses of Beef.
Grab a table at Little Szechuan.
3. Little Szechuan (422 University) Sure Szechuan's all the rage these days, but Little Szechuan was among the originals, proving why dan dan might just be the best way to eat noodles since flour met water. If you can handle the punch of chili and Szechuan peppercorns, try the painful-but-good kung-pau chicken or the ma po tofu.
2. Trung Nam (739 University Ave.)
Despite its former fast food digs and daunting chain link fence, this French/Vietnamese bakery is one of the strip's best day starters with its bargain-priced croissants and Vietnamese coffee. In the old days, Trung Nam used to close in the early afternoon, but the shop now serves pho in addition to its original banh mi, and stays open till midnight six days a week (closed Sundays).
Ngon Bistro's pretty digs.
1. Ngon Bistro (799 University Ave.) Among the prettiest of all Frogtown's restaurants, airy, mod Ngon offers American bistro fare plus Vietnamese classics like pho and broken rice plates. Plus, there's a locavore happy hour to enjoy their regionally focused craft beer list. And we can hardly wait for the forthcoming Ngon VW bus food truck!

The Devil Bug hits Wisconsin
The Emerald Ash Borer, also known as the danger bug of Detroit, is making its way to Minnesota faster than officials first predicted. This doesn't bode well for our tree-lined streets. The half-inch long insect will lay its eggs inside our beautiful ash trees and have their offspring gobble through the wood at birth. Like John McCain's neck bulge, it's not pretty to think about.
CP updated the journey of the Emerald Ash Borer last month. (scroll down) We wanted to remind readers about the seriousness of this beast:
"This little bug causes 100 percent mortality in all species of ash," says Dr. Lee Frelich, director of the Center for Hardwood Ecology at the University of Minnesota. "And it doesn't respond to any attempts to control it."
But we didn't suspect the Emerald Ash Borer would make it to our neighbors so quick. Back when the story published, the bug had just landed in Chicago and experts like Frelich thought the bug wouldn't be denuding out streets for at least seven years.
State Officials are now banning fire wood transports into the state, but stopping the movement of the Emerald Ash Borer is impossible. And like Rosie O'Donnell at Old Country Buffet, the metallic green arbiter of ash violence has an insatiable appetite.
So like we said before, enjoy the shade while it lasts.

July 18, 2008Reviewer: Leigh in ColoradoLove this powder - mixes seamlessly into smoothies, low cal, perfect for letting the taste of the other ingredients (fruit etc) shine through! I also like to put it in my cereal milk in the mornings. It's not great for use (full serving) in hot oatmeal, though.
April 17, 2007Reviewer: Thomas in IndianaDoes not add significant taste. Very flexible. I typically mix with oatmeal, 1/4 flour replacement for baking (I recommend premixing with dry ingredients to avoid clumping), or blend into shakes or low-fat chocolate milk.

the first one (my favorite) is the iriver s10. comes with 2GB, shuffle sized(yes that small), its screen takes up the whole front, and is a slick looking player. more on that by searching "iriver s10" in the reviews... sells low on amazon
second is the meizu m6, great player, amazing price seeing this makes me want to buy it horribly:
also has an 8 gigger for 160ish
Alot of the mp3 players (except for Apple's ipod) have the same features. I am looking to buy a Creative Zen since it's at Best Buy..but what are the alternatives? Thanks!

EPA to Give Itself Powers to Preemptively Deny Natural Resource Development?
Once again an Obama regulatory agency tries to give itself wild new powers, powers that would crush American energy and natural resource development, powers meant to quash the business sector.
A press release from Resourceful Earth News imparts a warning about the Environmental Protection Agency's newest powergrab. A lfet-wing Democrat Senator is asking the EPA to accept the idea of taking upon itself the power to deny mining or development of other natural resources before any scientific studies or any permitting procedures even begin. This Senator wants the EPA to just say no because, well, simply because it feels like it.
This effort is at the behest of Washington Senator Maria Cantwell (Dem.) who is urging the EPA to invoke the Clean Water Act to put a permanent end to the development of Pebble Mine in Alaska. Pebble Mine owners have already spent $120 million over three years to satisfy federal and state government regulations. Expensive and expansive scientific studies and environmental studies have already been conducted but now that the EPA has agreed to launch its scientific analysis of the mine, Cantwell wants the EPA to preempt the environmental review process the EPA itself put in place and simply decide to prevent the operation of the mine out of hand with no science needed to back it up.
If the EPA decides to try this new tact to quash American energy production and mining of natural resources, then it would from this point forward be able to wholly dispense with any need to rely on scientific facts to determine the viability of the culling of our own natural resources, those resources that made this country great. The EPA would have the precedent to shut down the use of any land merely because it deems it should be done.
Talk about the end of private property rights and the destruction of our energy and mining industries!
RE News notes that even if the mine is given permission to actually open it will still have to go through "67 federal, state, and local agencies for approvals and permits."
Even center left Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski is against this new powergrab by the EPA.
As Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski wrote, a preemptive veto of the Pebble Mine project will expand the powers of the EPA and "could have widespread and unintended consequences for any development project, including airports and other infrastructure." Cantwell's actions make a mockery of the federal environmental review process and leave Americans even more dependent on foreign sources to meet our needs for natural resources and energy. More American jobs will be lost and it will be another blow to our already shaky economy.
The press release give a few ways to stop Cantwell and the EPA's obscene abuse of power.

Quality All-Purpose Mic
This review is from: MXL AC-400 15" USB Gooseneck Conference Microphone
Pros: Plug & Play worked without issue in Windows 7 64bit. Solid construction without defect. The mute button is a very nice addition, and it cuts out the sound with out a pop or other added interference. Good sound quality that doesn't pick up much background noise.
Cons: The base could be a bit heavier or wider. With the mic extended the base will wobble a fair amount if someone accidentally bumps into the mic.
Other Thoughts: None.

Top North American concrete producers remained unchanged in 2014. Here is how they ranked, based on revenue.
Deals between private middle-market companies were structured to eliminate local competition. Larger, publicly traded companies continued to divest non-strategic operations to raise money for acquisitions.
Roller-compacted concrete volumes, number of projects, and applications in the U.S. are increasing.
Four new applications for roller compacted concrete (RCC) pavement.
In addition to visiting more than 200 exhibitors, attendees can take plant tours, watch product demonstrations, and network with their fellow producers.
The social initiative will improve the quality of life of approximately half a million people in Mexico and Guatemala by 2017.
The Society of Automotive Engineers Ready-Mix Concrete Truck Safety Committee has established two new standards with the goal of making operators' jobs safer.
Here are the articles and web extras from the 2014 The Concrete Producer Survey.
Several producers have notably increased their stake in the North American concrete industry through trades and acquisitions in key markets.
During 2013-14, we have seen the exit of many executives who have dedicated their careers to the concrete industry. Their departures could mean significant changes globally.

Outgrowing Self-Deception
By Morton Leeds, Gardner Murphy
Outgrowing Self-Deception
By Morton Leeds, Gardner Murphy
The suppression of war has been the primary objective of the United Nations for almost fifty years, and stopping a war before it starts is easier than ending a war already underway. History, however, has shown that military interventions and economic sanctions often do more harm than good. In "Preventive Diplomacy," Nobel prize winners, top officials, and revered thinkers tackle these issues and explore the process of conflict prevention from humanitarian, economic, and political perspectives. This cross-disciplinary reader on global politics demonstrates that when new insights and methodologies on public health are applied to the handling of international disasters, the change in policy perspective is intriguing--even hopeful.

October 9, 2007
A struggling Los Angeles actor who has never fully grasped his Chinese roots takes an eye-opening journey to Shanghai after inheriting his grandmother's home in this romantic comedy starring X-Men: The Last Stand's Ken Leung and Heroes's cheerleader Hayden Panettiere. Liam (Leung) is an aspiring Hollywood star who spends the majority of time picking up bar girls with his best friend Joe -- a starving writer who has yet to pen a proper screenplay. While Liam does share an innocent relationship with precocious 16-year-old Adelaide (Panettiere), she often comes off as more mature than he and the age difference between the pair is far too glaring to ignore. Upon receiving notice that he has inherited his grandmother's home in Shanghai, Liam throws caution to the wind and purchases an airplane ticket. Shortly after landing in China, Liam becomes smitten with beautiful local Micky (Kelly Hu) and gradually learns to embrace his Eastern roots. But it's difficult to exist comfortably between two cultures -- much less two women -- and before long Liam finds that in connecting with the past, he is simultaneously laying the groundwork for his future. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Imagine a woman in labor at the hospital. How she is moving? Where is she in the room? What is she doing? Probably you see a woman lying down in the bed, wearing a hospital gown, hooked up to various monitors, straps and tubes.
In some high-risk labors these procedures may truly be necessary for the safety of moms and babies (or for women using epidural medications). Most healthy low-risk women do not need to be hooked up to anything in order to safely birth a baby. Imagine how different hospital birth would be if most women could move around as they pleased without any sensors or straps attached to them. Imagine women moving instinctively, following their own inner rhythm and positioning themselves in ways that made their bodies feel powerful, relaxed, and productive. Read more

We have managed to find and fix a major bug that was affecting several different objects (tanning tubs included) and their states. There have also been multiple other bugfixes and minor changes and players should experience less weird game behaviour.
In addition, we have implemented some new GM Mode commands that might be handy for those who are actually GMs of their worlds. Be sure to check out new commands on the GM Mode page[lifeisfeudal.com]!
Patch notes (ver. 0.3.5.0):
- Fixed a major bug in the objects states subsystem. Tanning tubs and other objects should work smooth and correctly now. Don't tell us otherwise, please!
- Added a bunch of new GM Mode commands
- Fixed a bug that had caused some player animations not to play properly or be interrupted
- You should no longer see render bugs on some animals (headless wolves, bear legs only etc.)
- Multiple craft related bugs fixed
- Multiple other minor bug fixes and minor correction of gameplay formulas

"maykal's new Sanli Urfa Page" Top 5 Page for this destination Sanliurfa by maykal
Sanliurfa Travel Guide: 107 reviews and 345 photos
Sanli Urfa was the first town I visited in Turkey. It was also the only town that i was planning to visit, during a short unexpected holiday from my language school in Syria, until my "itinerary" was hijacked by a mad female Turk, who decided that we would try and cram 8 cities into 7 days...tiring, but I don't think it would have been the same without her...she was a good travelling companion and an expert translator, if a little kamikaze at times (trying to climb Nemrut Dagi in the snow was verging on the ridiculous!).
I'd love to return to this city, as I didn't really take much of it in, just having suffered a nightmare overnight journey from Damascus...I'd like to see it without having to yawn continuously, and I'm sure it would be doubly more interesting now that I've studied some Turkish!
My God, this page needs an update...I have so much more to say about this city, and more pictures...The travelogue about Harran has moved to its new home, hidden away on my Harran Page.
For more info about my trips to Turkey, click HERE!

- Pros:Lots of things to see, nice old town
- Cons:Freezing in winter!
- In a nutshell:Holy fish ponds, shrines in caves, hilltop castles, a warren of cobbled alleys...

We didn't come via an easy route! Having left Damascus (Syria) at 4pm, we arrived at the little used border crossing... more travel advice

In 1994, seven CEOs from the nation's largest tobacco companies declared under oath before a Congressional hearing on Capitol Hill that "nicotine is not addictive." Their testimony was a brazenly defiant refusal to acknowledge the legitimacy of several decades of research that proved cigarettes and nicotine were health hazards. Now imagine that in a parallel universe it had been seven CEOs from the nation's largest footwear companies all making the following declaration before that same Congressional Subcommittee on Health and the Environment: "Over-supported running shoes do not cause foot or leg injuries." Even though a number of published footwear studies already indicated that this was the actual case, the running shoe CEOs were in lock step agreement that it was not.
But there's more. Since their well-padded shoes were marketed as a way to prevent injuries, did these companies need to apply for FDA approval as stipulated by federal regulations for most other consumer products? No, the shoe companies didn't need a green light from the FDA. The shoes companies did no safety studies on runners, submitted no papers to scientific journals, or got their "devices" approved for public use.
So why hasn't the FDA required footwear companies, like most other consumer health-related products, which range from manual toothbrushes and wooden tongue depressors to blood pressure devices and even hot and cold packs, to be first tested to ensure that they not only are safe, but they do what they claim. In the case of the typical modern thick-soled oversupported running shoes, footwear companies have been given a free pass.
Here's the catch. Somewhere along the way, shoes and shoe products of all types, including those worn by surgeons and nurses in a hospital's operating room, inserts given to patients by therapists for treatment, therapeutic shoes, running shoes, and even "toning" shoes," which claim both health and fitness benefits, are exempt from premarket testing. They are exempt by the FDA much like potentially harmful dietary and vitamin supplements can be sold to consumers without first being rigorously tested by a government agency.
Early last month, discussions on injury, minimalist, barefoot running, and conventional footwear on Zero Drop, which overflowed to Runblogger, with input from yours truly and many others, including Simon Bartold, head of research at Asics, addressed what for so long has been the elephant in the room. A call finally came for real research to study running shoes and injury. While it's superb idea, I doubt that it will ever happen, at least in the way that the study should be conducted.
The proposed study was that each shoe should be rigorously tested using runners to find out once and for all whether the big-bonker shoes cause injury, if minimalist shoes fare better, and whether barefoot is best and perhaps the gold standard for healthy running.
But performing studies that clearly show whether a specific running shoe is good or bad is not going to occur. The million-plus dollar price tag alone would forbid it. And to do it correctly would take many years of testing; but shoes come and go in the market rather quickly. The cost, of course, would be passed on the consumers in the form of higher shoe prices.
But why should consumers pay for studies to help for-profit (and big profits they are—in the billions of dollars) companies demonstrate their shoes are harmful or not?
Many good studies on shoes and the potential for running injuries have been performed and published in respected medical and footwear science journals; and there are no doubt more of these studies underway right now. Moreover, the barefoot and minimalist movements, have done one additional thing: increased the interest of researchers and made more funding available.
Another reason the ideal running shoe/injury study can't be done is because they have to use humans who have many variables. These include gait irregularly, postural distortion, muscle imbalance, and physical pain. This practically guarantees that it will be a short-term study. Since a published study usually lists its own limitations—scientists and journals require this as a way to appear more objective—these criteria are just babbled back by skeptics, in this case the public relations folks at shoe companies right back to the media.)
The types of studies typically performed by researchers also won't satisfy most runners. Human studies typically demonstrate some "average" outcome, but consumers want to know "what does this mean for me." For these studies, the conclusions can't be narrowed to any one individual.
But the truth remains that many published studies already demonstrate the damage caused by conventional running shoes, or even walking in bad shoes. One of the earliest published studies describing the harm from shoes came in the early 1950s when a Canadian scientist, Dr. John Basmajian, showed that wearing shoes affected foot function through impairment of muscle activity. Known for his work in the area of electromyography (EMG) and biofeedback, the work of Basmajian and colleagues played a key role in other studies, later demonstrated by another Canadian, Dr. Steven Robbins, followed by Dr. Casey Kerrigan and her colleagues. The list goes on.
Instead of the endless call for "more studies are needed," there's a better idea—a system of checks and balances already in place. It's to lobby Congress to insist that the FDA follow its own guidelines and require running shoes to be pre-market tested on human subjects—and not by machines as many running shoe companies currently do in their research and development labs– to demonstrate health and product safety. But getting the FDA to change its stance probably won't happen as the big shoe companies command so much money and lobbying power on Wall Street and Capital Hill. And money talks.
Just as important as the published studies is real-life clinical evidence. There are many healthcare practitioners—from podiatrists and medical doctors to chiropractors and physical therapists—who have long been in the trenches treating injured runners before the shoe companies changed their products from flat minimalist shoes to oversupported ones (which began to occur around 1980). We saw how significant a runner's body responded to the increasing thickness of shoes, including which muscles were most damaged by oversupported racers and trainers. This is the ultimate scientific inquiry—years of flat shoes, then years of thick shoes, now years of modern minimalist shoes. The combination of clinical observations with scientific evidence is a meaningful application of evidence-based medicine.
Clinicians who understand biomechanics could see the changes in the running gait as flat shoes became thicker and more cushiony. I treated thousands of runners, and often had them bring me their different shoes to evaluate how their body functioned in each pair. Finding the best pair usually meant flatter, less support. In addition, the immediate and dramatic change in virtually any runner who takes off his or her shoes and runs for just a few steps is obvious, at least for those who are open minded and interested in a runner's health.
Perhaps an even better approach is to employ one, two or all three critical factors that already exist. First, for those who want more scientific explanations, they should look at the extensive peer-reviewed research studies published since the 1950s that demonstrate how shoes are harmful. Second just watch a person running in these oversupported shoes, and compare their gait when running with very flat shoes. Third, just take off your own shoes and run. If you don't feel the force of being barefoot, perhaps you're taken in by the marketing propaganda. But it's never too late to break with the past. In other words, kick the habit.
I couldn't agree more! While shoe companies may argue that long-term clinical studies to look at say, knee osteoarthritis, may be impossible, we have a number of variables that actually can and should be evaluated now. About every large athletic shoe company (and university) has a gait laboratory with force plates and motion cameras. What I would like to see is for these labs to be used to measure and report meaningful data (as opposed to the meaningless but snazzy looking data often used for marketing). Peak knee joint torques (forces applied a distance from the knee), has been linked to the development and progression of knee osteoarthritis. These can be measured in a gait laboratory. Claims of "cushioning" gotten from machine testing have absolutely no meaning in relationship to when in the gait cycle these peak joint torques (and other peak forces related to injury) occur. How a shoe sole actually works under a foot, again, all can be easily tested – now.
As an exercise physiologist / biomechanist by training, researcher by profession, and fully barefoot runner by hobby, I echo Dr. Kerrigan's comments regarding the ability to perform meaningful research now in virtually any gait lab, whether it resides in industry or an academic setting. Mechanical testing of the physical characteristics of various footwear technologies is, in my humble opinion, of so little value as to be virtually pointless as it regards knee biomechanics during running and the development of such musculoskeletal disorders as osteoarthritis. The good news is much important work is underway or being planned right now, so with good fortune we should gain valuable insights in the not too distant future.
thanks for the contribution.
An important piece and maybe the parody warning will one day be real.
A similar problem has occured in football helmets and we are just now realizing the harm. When companies started creating football helmets with no regulation on how the head was affected in the collisions, all assumed they must be a good thing. Of course…it was coushioning we thought. We know now that the helmet allowed a completely unnatural impact pattern that never occured in the days of Knute Rockne. 1000's of head on collisions are causing degenerative changes in the brain and other structural tissues in a players head and neck. Helmets are now being regulated, as is the behavior (sounds like training gait).
I think the parody warning label is 100% true…"may cause leg injuries". I never say a shoe by itself causes an injury…even it is completely dysfunction. The runner injures themselves. what are the attributable risks of various things (volume, intensity, form, shoes…). Kind of like heart attacks….what contributes the most out of all the risk factors. Turns out the attributable risk of lack of physical activity and smoking are the biggest players. cholesterol? pretty far down.
The inquisitive researchers may have the answer for Phil's questions in the not too distant future.
Dr. Maffetone;
You mention that "one of the earliest published studies describing the harm from shoes came in the early 1950s." I just wanted to point out a published study in our re-evolution library on the TRTreads web-site that is one of the oldest I am aware of describing the harm from shoes. It's from almost 100 years ago…"The Soldiers Foot and the Military Shoe", 1912, by Edward Lyman Munson. As you can tell from most military boots, dress shoes, and athletic shoes issued to our military today, we still choose to almost totally ignore the valuable information contained in this handbook. The traditional military boot has taken its toll, and I say the same for the traditional running shoe.
Sometimes the most difficult things to prove or explain are the obvious…….kind of like gravity and wind chill.

I'd just like to apologise to everyone for the recent downtime over the last 24 hours or so. I've been informed by my server provider that a system logging script was runing on the server which caused it to overload, however I have also been informed that the problem has been fixed and should not happen again. Having said that, if you've got anything to say regarding the uptime of this site, keep it shut. I don't care one bit, and I'm getting so annoyed by people complaning that I might take measures to prevent the amount of traffic I recieve. After all it's not "me" who is making the server crash, it's the thousands of visitors I get, and due to the fact I'm not hosted by some network with tons of advertising, I can't afford a server which will be way more than enough to host a site of this size and popularity.
As for what you missed while the server problems disrupted things... Nothing at all. Rather cool, don't you think, that Rockstar tell us the game has been delayed, then fail to give us ANY new information for the last 2 weeks or so... I for one have had enough of waiting around for news about a game, so you can expect other admins to be keeping the site news updated while I play the best game out at the moment, Call Of Duty: United Offensive. Obviously we're told the official site will be updated 'soon', but god knows when that will be. Stay tuned for updates, but don't expect them any time soon.

According information in BBB files Haytham Elzanyn, the owner of Dimension Service Corporation is also the owner of National Administration Solutions Corporation and Heritage Administration Services. Peter Knolla who is listed as the Attorney for Dimension Service Corporation, is listed as the secretary for Heritage Administration Services. The BBB maintains separate reports on each of these companies. Our BBB previously processed and reported information on Heritage Administration Services within the same file and report on Dimension Service Corp. In August 2008, our BBB began separately processing and reporting information on each company. On Dec. 4, 2008, Peter Knolla provided BBB the following information regarding what he described as Allegiance Holdings LLC's affiliated companies: Heritage Administration Services, Inc. (HAS) is a service contract administrator that is currently responsible for the majority of complaints being fielded by (BBB) offices due to financial difficulties created by its former owners. HAS is also the majority owner of a risk retention group named Heritage Warranty Insurance RRG, Inc. (HRRG) that provides insurance for HAS's service contract obligations. The HAS and HRRG operations were formerly located in Lincoln, Nebraska and when they were relocated to Ohio different Allegiance company staffs were assigned to conduct their service contract administration duties identified below. Dimension Service Corporation (DSC) is a service contract administrator but performs no service contract administration for HAS or HRRG and is a separate and distinct corporation from those entities. DSC has various insurers other than HRRG providing insurance for its service contract programs. National Administrative Services Corp (NASC) is a service contract administrator and although it's a separate and distinct corporation from HAS and HRRG, NASC does contractually perform some service contract administration for HAS and HRRG along with several other Allegiance entities. And Mr. Knolla provided the further descriptions of the terms obligor names, program names, and insurer's names: OBLIGOR'S NAMES: A service contract is a set of promises (subject to a service contract's terms and conditions) between a consumer and a contract obligor; the party required to perform the service contract's promises. In most instances, the service contract's obligor are one of the below listed service contract administrators. PROGRAM NAMES: Service contracts are sold to consumers through various means such as car dealers, mail solicitations and over the inter net. Different service contract programs are created to meet consumer preferences. As a result, a consumer might only mention the name of the program in their inquiry without identifying the correct obligor. INSURER'S NAMES: Most state laws require the promises made by an obligor of a service contract to be insured and the insurer's identity must be disclosed in the service contract. As a result, a consumer might incorrectly only identify the name of the insurer in their inquiry without disclosing the obligor's correct name."

Additional Information
About Yehu Microfinance TrustThis loan is administered by Yehu Microfinance Trust, which was founded in 1998 as a project of CHOICE Humanitarian Kenya. In July 2007, Yehu became a separate entity from CHOICE and was registered as a trust. Since then, Yehu has expanded to cover over half of Kenya's 13 coastal districts.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.
