Training for a Gran Fondo
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Ainslie MacEachran is the owner and head coach of GeminiTrainingSystems.com and the co-owner of Orchards Athletic Club. If you have a grand fondo coming up and you'd like help preparing, visit www.geminitrainingsystems.com.
Gran Fondos are a great addition to the American cycling scene. They provide great exposure to the sport and an opportunity for both competitive AND recreational athletes to be challenged by the same course. Here are some ideas to help you prepare.
Fits like a glove:
Basic prep for a Gran Fondo starts with trying to make sure your positioning on the bike is dialed in. If you're back or butt are hurting, you're going to have a hard time enjoying the event. Your local bike shop or a professional cycling coach can help you with get your bike set up. Correct position will allow you to be more comfortable AND more efficient on the bike.
Creatures of habit:
It's also in your best interest to spend as much time as possible leading up to the event riding your bike in varied terrain. Don't fall into the trap of avoiding one type of terrain or another just because its not your favorite. Gran Fondo's are typically of a great enough distance that you're likely to encounter a variety of terrain so, you want to be prepared.
Good Eats:
Additionally, in training, you should experiment with different nutritional products so that on the day of the event you've found something that you like and works for you. There's nothing worse that detonating sky high during the event and then dragging your sorry butt the rest of the way. Proper fueling is a key element. Don't neglect your hydration too. Remember the old adage to drink BEFORE you're thirsty, not WHEN you're thirsty.
Don't spend it all in one place!
An issue I see many cyclists struggle with is going out too fast. Remember that it's most likely a multi-hour event. Going out at a rapid pace will come back to bite you in the later hours and minutes of the event. Don't allow yourself to get caught up in the excitement and try to go out with the leaders (unless that's your goals). Remember to measure your effort so that you're still feeling reasonable in the last hour. You're ultimate goal is to complete the event, so if at all possible, try to bear that in mind as you roll out.

If terrariums conjure flashbacks of bell-bottoms, tie dye and lava lamps, consider yourself in good company. Terrariums—miniature landscapes placed in glass bowls or aquariums—were all the rage throughout the '70s and early '80s. And like many things of that era, they are cycling back into style. Today, we're digging terrariums again.
"Sometimes the best ideas are not entirely new. They're old ideas just done differently," says interior designer Kristin Rocke, principal of K. Rocke Design in SLC. She used the ultra-hip terrarium above to accessorize a design project she recently completed in Florida. (It looks a bit different than the glass bowl hanging in you mother's 70's macramé hanger, right?) If you want the look without the work, Rocke suggests purchasing from Plant the Future. If you want to create one of you own, we offer the following tips:
Today's terrariums are much sleeker, more refined versions of their hippie predecessors—sans the high-maintenance tenants including frogs, lizards, and turtles. When arranged in an apothecary jar, mini-conservatory or even a narrow, graceful vase, terrariums make a serene, almost sculptural statement in a home, and are particularly well suited to small spaces.
What it is: The enclosed or partially enclosed glass container referred to as a terrarium is nothing more than a miniature self-contained green house. Once established, terrarium plants transpire moisture through their leaves, which then condenses on the glass, and flows back to the soil. This 'rainforest effect' allows the terrarium to go for weeks without watering. Cactus and succulents are also well suited to terrariums; just be sure to install these plants in lidless containers allowing the drought-loving plants to stay dry.
How to maintain it: Keep the lid off a tropical terrariums for 24 hours after the initial planting to allow the soil to dry out a bit. Then once obvious moisture has dissipated, fix the lid on top of the terrarium making sure to monitor the soil occasionally. A bit of condensation on the walls and lid of the container is normal. Most tropical terrariums require a light watering about once a month. Place your terrarium where it will get lots of light but never direct sunlight. Replace any plants that look diseased or dead. And avoid fertilizing that can make the plants quickly outgrow their small confines.
Tips to grow by:
*Remove large chunks from potting soil before placing in your terrarium by sifting soil through a child's sand sifter. A mixture of half potting soil half cactus soil will help minimize fungus and/or mold growth.
*Sterilize soil (which further discourages fungus growth) by placing potting soil on a baking sheet and 'cooking' in a 400-degree oven for 20 minutes.
*Keep likes with likes. Plants in your terrarium will live and stay healthy longer if they are paired with plants with similar light and moisture needs.*Pet stores often carry small versions of both tropical and desert plants ideal for terrariums. Four-inch nursery plants can also be trimmed and divided to fit into your terrarium container.
* For close-to-home help in creating and planting a terrarium, talk with the pros at Cactus & Tropicals, SLC and Draper.

Heather Kozar
"I feel by posing for Play.boy I've discovered my own sexuality and beauty, and I feel more confident than ever." -Heather Kozar
She was Play.boy's "Play.mate of the Year" in 1999, and a current model for the game show The Price Is Right.
Heather Kozar BiographyHeather Kozar was born May 4th, 1976, in Akron, Ohio. Raised in a strict Christian home, Heather was not allowed to watch anything that contained sex or cursing, especially soap operas as they were deemed too provocative.
Growing up in a sheltered environment and suffering from low self-esteem while in high school, the blue-eyed blonde surely didn't know the impact she would have on males everywhere, due in large part to her relationship with Hugh Hefner... and his magazine, that is.
more than she bargained for
The 1994 Green High School graduate appeared in the Play.boy Video Play.mate Calendar in 1999 and 2000, Play.mates of the Year: The '90s (a retrospective of the past Play.mates of the decade in 1999), Play.mate Pajama Party in 1999, and the Play.boy Video Centerfold: Play.mate of the Year Heather Kozar in 1999.
As one can see, Heather was honored with the titles of January 1998 Play.mate of the Month, and reigned as Play.mate of the Year in 1999. Part of those duties include appearances at the Play.boy Expo in 1999, and being a regular housemate in the Play.boy mansion.
more than a mate
Heather has also made non-adult appearances in 1999, in WWF Smackdown!, Shasta McNasty (as did Lisa Boyle), Rescue 77, a Wendy's commercial, and the requisite Play.mate pit stop, The Howard Stern Show. She would do more acting gigs if she had more time for auditions.
Her latest stint features her joining a bevy of beauties, Barker's beauties to be exact, as a model for The Price is Right. Previous famous Price is Right Models include Gena Lee Nolin and Cindy Margolis.
Heather is engaged, and still keeping busy with the Play.mate after-buzz. In 10 years, she hopes to be married and a mother, and appear on a show like Entertainment Tonight.

Preparing for a Presentation
Create the Presentation Slides
Powerpoint, Word, and PDF documents can be uploaded, or you can create content directly inside your Vyew Room, then you can give a presentation remotely to many viewers. If creating content in Vyew, you can use the text tool to make titles and bullets points and use the shape and line tools for effect. You can also import images, music or a video.
Tips for an effective presentation:
- Know the needs of your audience and match your content accordingly.
- State your facts in a simple, concise and interesting manner.
- Use the 7×7 rule: no more than 7 lines of text with 7 words per line.
- When using images, make sure they're legible, not overly complex, and add to your presentation rather than distract from it.
- Keep colors to a minimum and stick with simple fonts. Fancy is not always better.
- Choose a color combination that makes your text easy to read.
Importing Content into Vyew
There are 2 ways to import content into vyew:
- In the Home tab, click on the Import Content button in the left hand tool bar. This will import your content into a new Vyew Room.
- In a Vyew Room, click on the Import button near the top center of Vyew. This will give you several import options. For more info, see here.
Multi-page documents are inserted onto multiple pages in Vyew.
If you have multiple pages in your Vyew Room, you should label them using the page navigator drop down. To rename, just click in a text box and type.
To rearrange the pages, simply drag the page to the desired position. See here.
The max file import size is 30MB, however we recommend keeping your files under 10MB, since smaller files will load quicker and be more likely to work.
Some documents with complex, high res graphics or background color gradients may have problems importing. If so, and your document is only a few pages, try the Screen Capture method of import.
Writing and Practicing a Script
- Know your material, don't wing it.
- Have a script – Write an outline or write bullet points. Put what you have to say in a logical sequence.
- Have goals – List and prioritize the top 3 goals you wish to accomplish with your audience.
- Practice your script while flipping through the Vyew pages.
- Take your time – Don't race through your presentation— pause to allow yourself and your audience a little time to reflect and think.
- Use Silence – Fight the urge to use verbal fillers such as "um", "uh" or "anyways." Instead, just pause.
- Use transitional phrases between slides that will smoothly take the user from one to another.
- Eye contact – If you're using a webcam with your presentation, try your best to maintain eye contact with the camera.
- Speak loudly and slowly – Don't speak in a monotone voice and try to keep your audience as interested and engaged as much as possible.
- Solicit questions – Invite questions during your presentation.
- Use Humor – It's good to use a little humor and personality, but don't go overboard.
- Practice, practice, practice.
Practicing with Vyew
Take a few minutes to practice various functions in Vyew. To simulate other people in the room, open a different browser, such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari, or Internet Explorer, then login to the same Vyew Room from two different browsers. One of your browsers can be a fake guest.
- Promoting and demoting users – You may want some people to mark up the presentation.
- Pulling users into your Vyew Room from the lobby – If your Vyew Room is set to Invites Only, when you enter the room with your guest browser, your Vyew session in your host browser will notify you to bring the guest in.
- Jumping to specific pages – Use the page navigator to jump to specific pages.
- Closing the sidebar for all users – If you are strictly using the teleconference feature, you may not want the sidebar distracting people. You can close the sidebar for everyone by hovering over the sidebar close button and clicking Close for Everyone when the tooltip pops up.
- Using the Talk button.
- Using the webcam.
Deciding on a presentation time
If you have people in varying timezones, use this timezone calculator to find a time that works best for everyone. You can also email everyone and have them vote on two or three different meeting times to see what works best. This handy application makes it easy.
Scheduling the Meeting in Vyew
Once you've decided on a meeting time, schedule it in Vyew using the invitation wizard. It will send out invitation links to all your participants and send them a reminder email as well.
Prior to Presentation
- Test and check all links, pictures, audio or video.
- Arrive in your meeting a few minutes before and greet attendees as the come in.
- Having an agenda will keep everyone focused and attentive since they know what to expect.
- Consider having a welcome page with agenda and estimated duration, then stick to it.
- If you plan to use Screen Sharing during your presentation, make sure your desktop is cleaned up with no embarrassing/distracting wallpaper.

|VB earns team academic honor
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The Idaho volleyball team is making a habit of excelling in the classroom as well as on the court, and the Vandals were recognized recently as a recipient of the American Volleyball Coaches Association's Team Academic Award for the third consecutive year.
The award recognizes teams that maintained at least a 3.30 cumulative grade-point average on a 4.0 scale during the 2012-13 academic year.
"It's awesome and it's a pat on the back for everything that these girls do," Idaho coach Debbie Buchanan said. "We ask them to be great in the classroom, we ask them to be great on the court, we ask them to do community service, and it just shows that you can juggle it."
Idaho is one of just two teams from the 2012-13 Western Athletic Conference to receive the honor, along with Denver. In all, 130 of the 330 NCAA Division I teams earned the recognition.
"We've obviously recruited some good kids who academics are important to." Buchanan said. "It's really congrats to them and all the administrative staff who has helped them out. For us recruiting kids in the future it helps us because they see that you can do well academically and travel all over the country, you can do both and you can do both really well."

Terry heads the Mobile Library Services department and enjoys each and every one of the communities the bookmobile serves.
This is an official blog for the Marin County Free Library.
When LAURA INGALLS WILDER started writing her classic "Little House" book series in 1932, she had no idea of creating fame for herself or the places where she had lived. She wrote simply to preserve tales of a lost era in American history, the pioneer period she vividly recalled from her growing-up years on the midwestern frontier in the 1870's and 1880's. When Laura completed her eight-volume series in 1943, she had achieved a lasting and substantial literary picture of pioneer life as she had experienced it in Wisconsin, Kansas, Minnesota, and South Dakota.
"I had no idea I was writing history," Laura remarked when her books were well known both in America and in foreign countries where they were translated. (The books are now printed in over 40 languages.) But readers of all ages accepted the Ingalls and Wilder families as chosen friends. Thousands wrote to Laura at her home on Rocky Ridge Farm in Mansfield, Missouri. Fans sought out the sites of her books and stopped to visit her in her Ozark Mountain home, right up to her death in 1957 at the age of 90.
Give the Little House books a try and see if you aren't amazed by the pioneering spirit and life Laura wrote about! Here are just a few:

I want to say up front that I am well aware that the Sundance Film Festival is about storytelling. To purists, everything else is just noise. I fully acknowledge and respect that. Now, let's move onto one of my favorite Sundance spectator sports: checking out what people are wearing.
Head to toe black remains the standard Sundance uniform for most men, and truth be told, still dominates at least the bottom half of most women's outfits. But just as many ladies are finally taking the plunge into color, either with an attention-getting scarf, floppy felt fedora hat, or simply all over, making the human landscape along Main Street a much cheerier place this year.
Bree, a twenty-something publicist with L.A. based music promoter Koffeehouse Music, looked cute and casual in a grey pea coat and skinny jeans set off with an oversized Louis Vuitton bag (to carry the LOADS of schwag she'd scored), mustard yellow scarf and off-white knit beret.
Fur seems to have lost of bit of its previous taboo this year, at least in smaller doses. Liza, at the festival for the first time from Chicago, pulled off this sophisticated, Aspen-inspired ensemble with a lovely camel-colored, belted wrap coat trimmed with real fur collar and cuffs. (Not sure what kind of fur, but she assured me it was real.) Her cute bedazzled knit beanie keeps the look from getting too serious.
Diana Madison, host and executive producer of online entertainment magazine, hollyscoop.com flew a bit under the radar in her standard Sundance, but very chic mostly black garb, but spiced things up with a pumpkin orange scarf and wool beige fedora. "You have to dress in layers at Sundance and really sticking with all black is the easiest way to go," Madison said.
Inside the Continuum Entertainment Group's "media, celebrity and tastemaker haven" at the Claim Jumper Inn on Main Street (i.e. one of the craziest parties I've ever been to; stay tuned for more on that in a later post.), Californian Shaybutta (Or so she said) rocks an edgy ski bunny look with animal print leggings and a black sweater jacket with faux fur collar. A sequined beret and pair of long semi-precious stone necklaces add a touch of sparkle.

Unbeaten through five games on the court, the LSU men's basketball team suffered a major loss Friday off of it.
First-year coach Johnny Jones announced point guard Anthony Hickey has been suspended from the team indefinitely for a violation of athletic department and university policies.
"We will cooperate fully with the athletic department and university on the matter," Jones said Friday in a university news release. "There is a responsibility that comes with playing college basketball. If a player doesn't take care of his responsibilities, then he loses the privilege of being able to play. We look forward to continuing to focus on our upcoming game Tuesday and our three-game road trip that follows."
LSU, off to its best start in four seasons, looks to remain unbeaten when the Tigers (5-0) face Chattanooga on Tuesday at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. The Tigers have upcoming games at Boise State, UC Irvine and Marquette, their first three road games, beginning late next week.
Hickey started 31 of 33 games for LSU last year after being named Kentucky's Mr. Basketball as a senior at Christian County High in Hopkinsville, Ky.
His fast start to 2012-13 has him leading the Southeastern Conference in steals with 4.4 per game and ranking second in the league with an average of 5.2 assists. He is LSU's third-leading scorer at 10.2 points and has connected on 35.7 percent of his 28 shots from 3-point range.
Hickey's mother, Monica Moore, said Friday she had no information on her son's status beyond the school's announcement.
"That's all I know," she said. "I talked to my son not too long ago and am waiting to hear back from him and his coach."
Hickey expressed in a written statement that Friday's suspension will be used as a learning experience.
"I know I have made mistakes and sometimes it takes mistakes in life to make you a better person," Hickey said. "I'm not perfect and need to move forward and make better decisions. I know I have let my family down, my team down and LSU down. I will come out of this a much stronger individual. I pray to be back in my LSU uniform as soon as I can."
Although a key cog in LSU's early season success, Hickey has been plagued by off-court setbacks.
He was suspended for LSU's exhibition game against Arkansas-Monticello, along with freshman wing Shane Hammink, for disciplinary reasons.
He faced additional disciplinary punishment Nov. 24 when he was left out of the starting lineup for a rout of Mississippi Valley State.

One out of four children do not get enough to eat, reports Feeding America. Hunger is growing in New York City.
Catholic Charities Feeding Our Neighbors campaign is fighting back, partnering with parishes, schools, organizations and individuals to restock food pantries and feed those in need
Last week, Epiphany School students, staff, faculty and board of trustee members delivered enough food to feed 5,000 families. Located in Manhattan, the school accumulated this significant donation through Epiphany's Walk the Walk Catholic Charities Feeding Our Neighbors food drive campaign on October 20. At the event, 350 families joined in a 2.5-mile walk along the East River Promenade to raise funds.
And while hunger, unfortunately, is growing, our commitment to fight it has grown as well. Last year, the Walk collected food which resulted in 4,000 meals. This year, the Walk increased its collection by over 25%.
There is just one goal for Feeding Our Neighbors, that New Yorkers answer the call to feed those who are suffering in our community.
See a full list of pantries and soup kitchens supported.

oh ha ha pichubro you can't beat me
solly, i'm not backing up your incredibly wise and insightful claims. i didn't even read your post before i posted lol.
your welcome
thats not in the least bit kawaii peach (i like that nick lol)
your welcome
.. All I can say is, Australia didn't create Wikileaks, an AustraliaN did. And he should get a medal for revealing not just America's secrets but the worlds secrets.
That's all I'll say. I'll waste not with a troll.
Eh, it's alright man. Everyone has the right to their opinion, if he doesn't like my view thats fine and he has every right to have a go at me, doesn't mean I need to listen .
My teacher was Australian and she didnt speak Japanese. XD It was a waste of time.Learning Japanese isn't a waste of time~ 馬鹿っぽい。
If I actually met a Japanese person I'd love to learn it, but I'm learning Finnish at the moment and thats hard enough belive me.
I will respond to this, I didn't notice it before cause honestly I didn't read your post but. Most people I've met here are American, Pants for example, who is now a good friend and mentor, is American. And he's a very smart lad. Please if your going to argue, do it in a mature fashion and don't put words in my mouth.. Unless they're tasty words like Chocolate.. Mm..but definitely not the ignorant imbeciles you're constantly accusing them of being.
thanks blaziken
anyway, you WERE using over-generalized statements that seemed to employ us americans as greedy, ignorant, isolationists :/
and we* aren't.
our country does have problems, yes, but thats why we have a moderately fast-changing political system that swiftly switches from one side to another every few years. it keeps our people on their toes, and more interested in debates/politics in general. that includes global politics.
but regardless, you are a good friend blaze
*3/4's of us lol
your welcome
Come get your damn Squirtle. :|
Off topic but I'm sick of Squirtles.
sadly, he hates everything on the wii because he hasn't played it
your welcome
So what you are saying is that due to a very small island not having enough economic potential to simultaneously conquer and fund 2/3 of the world, means that they are economically sub-par. DO you realise that half of our money during this time was spent on semi-reparation of the places we had just taken over, and that the main reason our economic downturn was so poor was due to the mass training of people in areas in an attempt to make them at least self dependant.
The actual reason that the British Empire fell is that the standard of living of the people within it didn't rise to a satisfactory level because the state system was flooded out by the sheer quantity of the people it had and there was no feasible way of having any sense of control over the cultural differences that got in the way of the capital means that we tried to impose.
If it was due to our economy being "aweful" then we would have lost our empire and slumbered into the realms of poverty rather than staying at a height in economic power throughout the time after, even until the present. The only reason we got hit so hard by recession was due to to import led high standards of living that we attained from previously large export led growth in agriculture and steel manufacturing much earlier on to the countries that you would now consider to be "better than Britain" despite the fact that in a level playing field the only thing they were better at was adaptation. Thus the real reason we aren't still the biggest is due to the fact that we tried to foolishly hold on to tradition and high standards of living when it is clear in hindsight that we should actually have just let it go and re-allocate into future growth industry.
Consider that a brief lesson in the background to British history, if you have a counter argument, please try and spell it better than the first one.
Life begins as a quest of the child for the man and ends as a journey by the man to rediscover the child.

Up all night staring at your ceiling? Your best snooze aid may be your cross-trainers, suggests new research in Mental Health and Physical Activity. According to the study, those who did at least 150 minutes a week (about 20 minutes a day) of moderate or vigorous exercise saw their sleep quality improve by about 65 percent compared with less active folks. If you need more motivation, consider this: Insomnia is associated with up to a 45 percent higher risk for a heart attack, notes a recent Norwegian study published in Circulation.

Bell + Howell 50104 Motion Activated Ultrasonic Solar Powered Animal Repeller
The Bell & Howell Solar Animal Repeller's high frequency ultrasonic sound is unpleasant to animals. It easily mounts to almost any surface but comes with its own mounting stake so you can place it almost anywhere. Once animals come within range, the built in infrared motion detector activates, both in daylight and even at night, emitting a powerful, ultrasonic sound that sends pests scurrying for safety. It works from up to 30 feet away. It's weatherproof and solar powered. Learn More

BRATISLAVA, Slovakia – The Washington State University women's basketball team continued its 10-day foreign trip through Europe, traveling to Levice, Slovakia to face the Levice basketball club.
The team defeated Levice, 69-34, and were led by sophomore Lia Galdeira with 16 points.
The game recap can be found here.
The Cougars will travel to Prague tomorrow. While in Prague, WSU will face three more European opponents and also have the opportunity to sightsee at the Prague Castle and take a boat tour on the Vltava River.
Throughout the Cougars' travels in Europe, seniors Brandi Thomas, Sage Romberg, and Hana Potter will be keeping a players' blog of their thoughts and activities. Below is an entry from Brandi Thomas, recapping the day's events.
"It sure felt great to get our first W of the season today! All of our Coug fans were just as ready as we were at the beginning of the game, shaking their little noise makers they got this morning! It is so great to have our Coug family with us here in Europe :) There were a few different rules that most us had to adapt to, but Iva had no problem fitting right in! She's definitely helped us struggling Americans a ton over here!!
Tomorrow morning we head to Prague. We have all heard a lot of good things about the place so we're all very excited to spend our last few days in Europe there!
Go Cougs!!"

Hello all. I have just started using Lejos on my RCX brick, so let me give you a little background. I am doing a project over at the University of Washington, and our group is assigned the task of disabling other RCX bricks. My question is the following:
Can I set up my RCX brick to disable other RCX bricks over IR? I know that multiple RCX bricks can transmit messages back and forth, but is it possible to send some sort of global "shutdown" message?

Geraldine Hamilton:
Body parts on a chip
It's relatively easy to imagine a new medicine, a better cure for some disease. The hard part, though, is testing it, and that can delay promising new cures for years. In this well-explained talk, Geraldine Hamilton shows how her lab creates organs and body parts on a chip, simple structures with all the pieces essential to testing new medications — even custom cures for one specific person.

Linda Mccown
Professor Linda McCown Anchor link to Linda McCown video McCown's advice for prospective students
Meet Linda McCown
Associate Professor and Director, Clinical Laboratory Science
- B.S. Medical Technology: Pennsylvania State University
- M.S. Health Related Professions: University of Pittsburgh
- Ph.D. in progress
- I like sports, music and traveling. I play a little bit of guitar. I've been
to Iceland, Egypt, Lichtenstein, Australia, A quote by Professor Linda McCown, "All of our CLS students get degrees and jobs when they graduate. We have 100 percent job placement." and lots of other places. I've lived in every time zone except for Mountain Time. I grew up in Pennsylvania and I worked for 19 years in Washington State as an associate program director.
Major project underway:
- I have two major projects. One of them is a self study for
accreditation. Our program is accredited by NAACLS, a national organization which accredits clinical laboratory science programs once every seven
- Then, of course, my dissertation. I'm
exploring adult education, specifically how instructors who teach students in the clinical sites learn to be teachers. Oftentimes these instructors are doing bench work in a laboratory and then they are assigned students. I'm researching how they learn to teach and with that, what we can
do to help them become better teachers.
Learning philosophy:
- Students have different learning styles. I believe that adults (and I think students are adults, or are on their way to becoming adults, hopefully) are responsible for their own education. I can't learn the material for them. They have to take responsibility for their education and I'm there to facilitate that. Not that I don't teach, I certainly do. I give lectures and assignments, but they have to put in the time to learn it themselves.
Community connections:
- I'm the president of the local Springfield southern branch of the American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science.
Advice for prospective students:
Best thing about the Clinical Lab Science program:
- We have excellent faculty, excellent facilities, and, most importantly, we have excellent clinical facilities. Our students spend about 24 weeks in the clinical rotations in a hospital. We have Memorial Medical Center, Decatur, St. Mary's and Methodist right now and our students rotate through those. It's very important that students go to a good clinical site—our students go to two of the clinical sites so they get exposed to more than one way of doing things. All of our CLS students get degrees and jobs when they graduate. We have 100 percent job placement.

"There is no, no, no place like New Orleans for music. The pioneers are here. We built the house. You can redecorate it, but we laid the foundation."
-Dave Bartholomew
We are very excited about this year's American Music Masters Series! The program, entitled "Walking to New Orleans: The Music of Fats Domino and Dave Bartholomew" will be held here in Cleveland November 8-13th. Domino, a legendary piano player, wonderful singer, and galvanizing performer, and Bartholomew, an accomplished trumpet player, arranger and bandleader, make up one of the great partnerships of rock and roll. They wrote more than 50 songs together, including "Ain't That a Shame," "Blue Monday," "I'm in Love Again" and "I'm Walkin.'" In a 1999 interview with the New Orleans Times-Picayune, Dave Bartholomew said "Fats and I, I think that the Lord put us together." Domino responded, "I'm pretty sure...Who else would do it?" We are so grateful to our honorees and their families for all their help in making this event possible. We met with them back in June, which Terry Stewart described in a previous blog post.
Because Domino and Bartholomew both predate rock and roll and are first ...

This medication is used to treat certain types of brain cancer. It is a chemotherapy drug that works by slowing cancer cell growth. In some patients, temozolomide decreases the size of brain tumors.
OTHER USES: This section contains uses of this drug that are not listed in the approved professional labeling for the drug but that may be prescribed by your health care professional. Use this drug for a condition that is listed in this section only if it has been so prescribed by your health care professional.
This medication may also be used to treat other types of cancer (such as bone cancer).
Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start using temozolomide and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions about the information or if you are not certain which days of the treatment cycle to take your medication, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth, usually once daily or as directed by your doctor. To reduce nausea and vomiting, take it on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 3 hours after a meal) or at bedtime, unless otherwise directed by your doctor. To make sure the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level, take it at the same time every day in relation to a meal (e.g., always 1 hour before the evening meal or always 3 hours after the evening meal).
Swallow the capsules whole with a full glass of water (8 ounces or 240 milliliters). The dosage is based on your medical condition, body size, and response to therapy.
Do not crush, chew, or open the capsules. If the capsules are accidentally opened or damaged, avoid inhaling the medication, and do not let it touch the skin or mucous membranes (e.g., inside the nose). If contact occurs, flush the area with water. Since this drug can be absorbed through the skin, women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant should not handle this medication.
Do not increase your dose or take this medication more often without your doctor's approval. Your condition will not improve any faster and the risk of serious side effects may be increased.
Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, mouth sores, changes in taste, coughing, constipation, tiredness, and headache may occur. Nausea and vomiting can be severe. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe medication to prevent or relieve nausea and vomiting. Eating several small meals, not eating before treatment, or limiting activity may help lessen some of these effects. If these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
Temporary hair loss may occur. Normal hair growth should return after treatment has ended.
Many people using this medication have serious side effects. However, your doctor has prescribed this drug because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Careful monitoring by your doctor may decrease your risk.
This medication may cause very serious blood disorders (such as decreased bone marrow function). It may also rarely cause another form of cancer (of the bone marrow). Consult your doctor for more details. These effects can decrease your body's ability to fight an infection, cause your body to bruise or bleed easier, or cause anemia. Tell your doctor right away if you develop any of the following: signs of infection (such as fever, persistent sore throat), easy bruising/bleeding, unusual tiredness, fast heartbeat, shortness of breath.
Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: seizures, symptoms of liver damage (such as persistent loss of appetite, stomach/abdominal pain, yellowing eyes/skin, dark urine).
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it occurs. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
In the US -
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch.
In Canada - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to Health Canada at 1-866-234-2345.
Before taking temozolomide, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to dacarbazine; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: kidney problems, liver problems, decreased bone marrow function, blood cell disorders (e.g., anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia).
Do not have immunizations/vaccinations without the consent of your doctor, and avoid contact with people who have recently received oral polio vaccine.
To lower the chance of getting cut, bruised or injured, use caution with sharp objects like safety razors or nail cutters, and avoid activities such as contact sports. Use a soft-bristle toothbrush to lower the risk of bleeding gums.
Wash your hands well to prevent the spread of infections.
The elderly may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially the increased risk of infection and easy bruising/bleeding.

1921 With $30,000 in borrowed funds and three employees, Robert S. Pein established the first home office casualty company in Columbus, Ohio, writing business in a rented room at 257 East Broad Street.
The fledgling company wrote only auto insurance in its early years. As one might expect, in the early '20s, the insurance industry left much to be desired in terms of rates and claims. Undeterred, Pein set forth to ensure that State Auto would be different. He pledged to State Auto policyholders reasonable rates, along with prompt and satisfactory service in the settlement of all claims. Pein also relied on independent agents to assure the best and most efficient policyholder service. Independent insurance agents are still today our one-and-only distribution method.
1925 State Auto grew so fast in its first four years, it had to move twice to larger facilities. In 1925, State Auto began writing "non-assessable policies" wherein policy holders would not be assessed additional fees should losses become too great. This innovative policy required the company to deposit an amount at least equal to that required of a stock insurer incorporated for issuing full legal reserve policies.
1926 In order to facilitate better communications with agents and employees, a monthly publication called The Pein Tree was created. Leroy "Pop" Schnell was the first editor. During the late 1920s, State Auto adopted the Protective Giant advertising symbol, used on all policies and promotional materials. These were exciting years, but State Auto would soon face its greatest challenge. The 1929 stock market crash and Great Depression would test the very foundation on which this young, growing company was built.

I was looking through a loading manual the other day, and then at the Green Mountain sale on .223 barrels for $30.
Hmm... I've mostly been a big-bore fan, but the .22-250 looks like a sweeeet cartridge. Many of the loads I found exceeded the velocity of the .220 Swift with the same bullets.
Downside: the 4000+ fps loads were all around 60,000 PSI. Some were listed at 3100 fps and 39,000 PSI, which is quite respectable. SAAMI max appears to be 65,000 PSI. Yawp! 7.61x51 SAAMI max is 62,000 PSI... I couldn't find any pressure specs for commercial ammo, but I don't think I'd be comfortable shooting anything that hot with an AK action.
For handloads, looking through a couple of different books showed that the .22-250 is quite flexible as far as loading components, and still delivers good velocity even at substantially lower pressures.
Hmm... you know, if you short-chambered the barrel by .030" or so and adjusted the dies appropriately for your reloads, you could ensure that the bolt would not close over a commercial .22-250 cartridge. I guess you could call it a "semi-wildcat."
Hmm... sure would be a lot cheaper than the 6.5mm barrel I want for the Hadar build... the difference in length would require the use of a .308 mag, at which point the .300 Savage starts looking good again.
Choices, choices...

Expert Handlers and the Flow of Control
author: Neil Soiffer (chair, Expert Handlers SIG
The goal of the Expert Handlers working group [2] is to define a standard so that AT software can call on expert software to interpret specialized markup. One issue that needs to be addressed is how and where (in the flow of control of reading a page) should the expert handler get invoked. Here are some possibilities:
- The expert handler registers itself with the rendering application (e.g., the web browser, PDF viewer, etc.). When the page is loaded, the handler is invoked by the renderer to convert the DOM or somehow proxy for the DOM node to make it appear to have non-expert content. E.g., it might convert the specialized markup to text or some generalized markup that AT can typically handle
- The AT traverses the DOM and when it gets to some node it doesn't understand, it consults some resource that associates a particular handler with the node name. It gets the node's content (which might include other nodes) from the DOM and passes that content to the expert handler. It then issues requests to the handler (e.g., "give me text to speak for the content").
- The AT traverses the DOM and when it gets to some node it doesn't understand, it consults some resource that associates a particular handler with the node name. It then points the expert handler to that node and issues requests to the handler. In this case, the handler is directly interacting with the DOM.
Although similar, the later two cases probably have implications on the difficulty of implementation and the capabilities of the interface. Some of these are:
- If the expert handler directly reads the DOM, then the expert handler must understand MSAA, IA2 [3], or whatever is appropriate for the level of functionality it needs. This also implies that the rendering application must support those standards. If not, the expert handler would need to know how to access application specific DOMs.
- If the expert handler is given a copy of what resides in the DOM, then interacting with the content (e.g., filling in a text field) would complicate any standard that is developed because support for passing info about input would need to be part of the standard.

Published: Thursday, February 7, 2013 at 5:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 6, 2013 at 2:25 p.m.
DEBARY - The Krewe of VFW Post 8093 threw a Mardi Gras Madness party last Saturday that met with rave reviews from all who attended.
Costumes and masks were worn in the festival colors of purple (representing justice), green (prepresenting faith) and gold (representing power).
The festivities started with a New Orleans dinner followed by the crowning of king and queen of Mardi Gras Krewe of Post 8093. Selected were Quenn Shirley Bonds, president of the post's Ladies Auxiliary, and King Med Tessier, commander of the post.
A Mardi Gras float of children with masks and patriotic flags represented the reason for the fundraiser - the VFW National Home for Children.
"Laissez les bons temp rouler," (let the good times roll) was the order of business throughout the evening with music by Traces of Gold band playing everyone's favorites. A special second line dance featured Parading Gals with their Mardi Gras parasols and passing out beads to all.

|Barone nabs WAC honor
DENVER - Idaho big man Kyle Barone had back-to-back double-doubles last week and came one point shy of a career-high when he scored 26 in a win against Texas State, and Monday he was honored with his second Western Athletic Conference Player of the Week selection of the season and fourth of his career.
Barone, a 6-foot-10 senior center from Garden Grove, Calif. (Pacifica HS), recorded 13 points and 15 rebounds in a 74-56 loss at UTSA. He connected on 6-of-11 shots from the field and also dished out three assists against the Roadrunners.
He scored 26 points and pulled down 14 rebounds in a 90-81 win at Texas State. He also tallied three blocks and two assists, hit 12-of-17 shots from the field and was a perfect 2-of-2 at the free throw line in that game. His 26 points against the Bobcats was his eighth 20-plus point outing of the season, and one point shy of his career high of 27 points.
On the week, Barone averaged 19.5 points, 14.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.5 blocks per game. He shot 64.3 percent (18-of-28) from the field.
Barone will play his final game in the Cowan Spectrum on March 9 when the Vandals welcome Seattle U for Senior Night. Barone and fellow seniors Mike McChristian, Mansa Habeeb and Wendell Faines will be honored before the game. Tipoff is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.

Diseases of the Eye That Cause...
Widespread Adoption of Biomarkers Has Been...
Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...
Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
AstraZeneca is taking FDA to court over the agency's refusal to uphold the firm's Citizen Petitions requesting that approval of generic quetiapine products is withheld unless the product labeling includes equivalent hyperglycemia warnings to those required on AstraZeneca's branded Seroquel and extended release Seroquel XR® antipsychotics.
The U.K. based drug firm is effectively looking to ban FDA from granting final marketing approval for generic quetiapine until December 2 when regulatory exclusivity expires on key clinical trial data associated with the warning language, or at least until a federal court has been able to review FDA action on the pending generic marketing applications. AstraZeneca filed the Citizen Petitions with FDA for Seroquel and Seroquel XR back in September 2011. The agency denied both on March 7.
The Seroquel/Seroquel XR composition patent expired in September 2011, and pediatric exclusivity is due to expire later this month. Seroquel XR is covered by a formulation patent expiring in May 2017, and a pediatric exclusivity patent expiring in November 2011. However, during September and October last year, AstraZeneca settled separate patent infringement lawsuits with Handa Pharmaceuticals and Accord Healthcare, and granted the firms licenses to take generic Seroquel XR products into the U.S. market in November 2016, or potentially earlier.
Seroquel/Seroquel XR is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia, for the treatment of acute manic episodes associated with bipolar disorder, and as an add-on treatment to an antidepressant for patients with major depressive disorder. The two formulations achieved combined global sales of $5.83 billion in 2011, up 8% on 2010 figures, despite the emergence of generic versions of AstraZeneca's original Seroquel. Market loss experienced by Seroquel as a result of generics was more than offset by a 27% growth in sales of Seroquel XR sales, which reached just shy of $1.5 billion.

Rwandans, Bikes & the Meaning of Life.
Submitted by Cheri Felix on
I went to the movies on Saturday. It was the Boulder International Film Festival. Somehow by the grace of the awesome husband gods, I was able to watch two movies. I watched one about truth, reconciliation and forgiveness. It took place in Rwanda, Palestine/Israel and Ireland. If that wasn't enough, I stayed for Rising from the Ashes. And this is where you come in. It was a movie about the Rwandan cycling team. And it was about the coach that dedicates his life to the team. But it was about more than bikes and racing and kits and road rash. It was about people who've endured far more than most. People who've seen family members die at the hands of neighbors. It was about people who've apparently decided that they want a better life. A different life. And that maybe, just maybe, the bike is a vehicle to help get them there.
I walked out and said to anyone who listened, "What am I doing with my life?" Like really. Besides taking care of my family (the true lights of my life) what am I giving back? How am I reaching out? Am I any good at forgiving, forgetting, reconciling and giving?
A few days before the movies I bought a new helmet and I must admit I was super psyched (No worries. I'm still shallow). It's a beauty, Specialized, from Uni Bikes. And I went for a great ride on Sunday and just to follow up, the Reverb seat dropper is just as amazing as I hoped it would be. But it makes me think. How do we balance our lives on the bikes with the other parts of ourselves? How do we literally balance it all so that it doesn't become all about the bike, the crit, the helmet, the timing chip, the fees we pay to race, the you fill in the blank.
Listen. I'm just thinking aloud. Just wondering. And just in case you've been watching the snow fall and melt and then fall again and need a place to put some energy here are a few ideas:
Guess what? We all get to ride our own ride and pick our best lines. We all get to design the training path if you will. I guess all I'm pondering this week as I can almost smell mountain bike season is how can I do more? How can I be of service? I'm not a rocket scientist and I'm not a bridge builder but I am a mountain biker. And I know I can do more. What ideas might you have?

I check my Facebook page three, four times a day. I like to catch up, read between the lines of other people's posts and feel that much better about my little life. My problem is avoiding the political comments and one-liners that alienate people.
I know that I should exercise caution—and restraint—when reading posts by my politically polar-opposite friends and family members. But when they deride my candidate, it's like they are deriding me, and what am I supposed to do? (Let the record show, they started it.)
Testy? Uh, that was three months ago. We've gone way beyond testy and have crossed over into rancor. Our back-and-forth posts have descended into shouting matches—I'm talking ALL CAPS followed by three, four, seven exclamation points with grimacing emoticons.
After each presidential debate, the rational voice in my head says, "Do not visit their pages. It will not end well."
Do I listen? No.
I think I can go ahead and take a quick glance. Just read their Super PAC rhetoric and get out. In hindsight, I'd have been better off clicking over to J. Crew or Anthropologie to see what was on sale, maybe order myself a sweater. But I think I can handle it, that my undies will remain unbundled. I scroll. There is cheering. (Not surprising. I expect that.) But there is also condescension. Smugness.
Game on.
I end up spending the morning and part of the afternoon surfing the Web looking for that perfect, proving-my-point video clip. I cut. I paste. I type a follow-up and wait. Two minutes later, a counter attack. I parry. They lunge. And we're off. A few words. Then a sentence. A paragraph. And before you know it, dueling manifestos. But to what end?
We used to have different opinions on a lot of things. Our allegiances to professional football teams, for one. And musically? My friends had a lot to learn. Plus, they were in the Prince Charles camp while I was a Diana loyalist. You know what always pulled us out of our corners and brought us back together? A good, old-fashioned Kennedy scandal.
I don't know what's going to happen after the election. Will we be able to put aside our differences and pass the stuffing at Thanksgiving? Will I be off the Christmas-card list? At this point, unless the Camelot clan comes up with something deliciously sordid, it's not looking good.
