Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplements may Improve Kids Reading Skills
by Kathy Jones on September 8, 2012 at 4:31 PM Child Health News - G J E 4
A new study conducted by researchers at Oxford University reveals that providing additional omega-3 fatty acid supplements to children may lead to improvement in their poor reading skills.
The researchers gave a daily dose of 600mg omega-3 supplements to 362 children aged between seven and nine years for over a period of 16 weeks.
AdvertisementThe researchers found that while there was no marked improvement in the overall reading skills of the group, those who were in the lowest fifth of the group improved their reading age by three weeks while those in the lowest 10 percent improved their reading age by 1.9 months compared to those who were on a placebo.
Stating that the findings could be useful for children who have poor reading skills, Oxford University's Paul Montgomery said, "Previous studies have shown benefits from dietary supplementation with omega-3 in children with conditions such as ADHD, Dyslexia and Developmental Coordination Disorder, but this is the first study to show such positive results in children from the general school population."

"How can I make you see?" James DeVita, in his awe-inspiring performance as the nameless poet of Milwaukee Repertory Theater's An Iliad, asks this question again and again. A haunted, semi-mythic figure who seems to have witnessed the events of three thousand years ago, he visibly struggles to make sense of them to an audience for whom the name Homer is as likely to conjure the exclamation "d'oh!" as thrilling tales of bygone valor. But he does make us see.
Long before binge-watching on Netflix, epic poetry recited live was the chief form of entertainment: sitting around the fire while a lone bard stood, strumming a harp and declaiming some famous tale, the images unfolding in the audience's minds through the power of the poet's muse. The patrons were generally aristocrats who won their status by conquest, so tales of military might were favorite fare. Legendary warriors were sports heroes, superstars and royalty all in one. And if the poet could somehow link the hero with the local chieftain—well, the tips only got better.
An Iliad proves that it's still possible for one performer to hold a crowd spellbound with a good story, and that the old saga still has the power to thrill and move us. But though there are episodes of ultra-violent, bone-crunching gore in the evening, co-playwrights Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare have placed their focus firmly to the tragedy rather than the glory of war. To bring it home, the designers depict the theater as a bombed-out ruin, collateral damage of some artillery strike, as if Milwaukee were Sarajevo, Baghdad, Homs, or any of countless other devastated cities. Director John Langs cunningly employs an arsenal of theatrical devices to keep our attention from wandering, introducing new elements every time we think we have the show figured out; accenting the narration with skillfully shifting lighting; props seemingly improvised from the rubble; and a restrained but spot-on musical score composed by Josh Schmidt and played on a rich, heartfelt cello by Alica Storin, who sometimes appears spectrally as the poet's muse.
But really, it could be an empty stage, such is the power of DeVita's performance to create characters, props, sound effects, and entire landscapes out of language. As it is, the evening flies by. We don't hear the entire poem—nor could we, even in almost two hours (you want to run out and get Robert Fagles' dusted-off translation, on which the script was based): the poet brushes past some of the best-known scenes with "you've heard about that." What we do get, though, makes us understand how the epic could inspire Alexander and Julius Caesar, and find its way to bookshelves from The British Empire to Mount Vernon. It's far from being just a story about a big wooden horse: we witness fragments of a wild, weird cornucopia, postcards from the Bronze Age. Through the power of DeVita's storytelling, moods wash over us like weather; bright images pop up like polished jewels; fresh and vivid: the pissing match between Achilles and Agamemnon, with thousands of lives in the balance; a touching encounter between the Trojan hero Hector with his wife and infant son on the battlements of their besieged home; a comic characterization of the girly-man Paris, who started the whole thing, but doesn't fight; fantastic interventions by the gods; even an amazing description of Achilles' shield, forged by the god Hephaestus, adorned with incredibly detailed engravings of scenes of battle and scenes of peaceful life: reminders of the warrior's true purpose.
These fragments from the original didn't make it into the script by accident; Peterson and O'Hare are clearly interested in war—but not its glorification. They pointedly do include the scene where aged Priam, defeated Hector's father, risks his life by coming into the Greek camp and begging for his son's corpse. In this famous scene, Achilles—best of all warriors, whose rage both fueled the crisis and won the battle—shows mercy to his hated foe's father. The incident shakes the whole bloody epic with the power of compassion, and is one reason for its greatness. Here are the lessons of The Iliad for those of us who would love to bomb Iran, or who fill stadiums with fierce chants of "USA! USA!" The purpose of war is not to feel powerful, not to fuel the ego or to satisfy the primal need for death and danger; these are the perennial seductions of man's testosterone addiction. The best warrior is the enemy of all that, his purpose, to revere peace.
Will An Iliad cure us of this addiction? Probably not. But it's still the artist's job to make us see it, feel it. This, the artists of the Rep's production do, with consummate passion and finesse.

Everyone agrees that Wayland is better than X11 for your usual desktop. Why is X then used by every major distro then? Is it bugs, little compability from apps (is that even an issue?) or something else?
I think you've jumped the gun a bit — while many people may agree Wayland has a better design for the modern era (though some still disagree even on that), the implementation is not yet finished, and it doesn't yet do everything needed to overtake X, nor are the applications and toolkits ready for it. This fall Wayland is expected to declare its API stable so that the toolkits can start porting without having to worry about incompatible changes breaking their port, while the Wayland developers continue working on the bits still needed to flesh out the desktop.
The lead developer of Wayland gave a talk and demo at the X.Org Developer's Conference in September 2012 covering the current state and work in progress still - you can either read the summary or watch the video recording.
Note: My information may be out of date. I know there already are a lot of Wayland libs in Ubuntu.
Wayland is still relatively new and it's a long way from well tested and complete. Several distributions are migrating towards Wayland and we will most likely see Wayland based distributions next year.
X has been used for decades and there are a lot of old applications who require X to run. There are a lot of applications to be ported before a distribution can fully take the step over to Wayland.
X needs to be ported to run as a application under Wayland, then can we use X as a compatibility layer for old applications.
It's really just a matter of project maturity. At the time of the original question, Wayland support from GUI toolkits (eg. Qt, GTK, etc) was still in development, and support from DM's (GDM, KWin, etc) was also limited. As such, everything still used X11 and Xorg.
But this has changed. As of this writing, Gnome 3.20 has strong Wayland support, as do numerous GUI toolkits. Over time, I think you'll find that most distros will likely default to the compositor used by the respective DE (eg. GDM), thereby using the Wayland protocol.

"Arrested Development" fans around the world
blue themselves rejoiced upon hearing the news of the cult comedy's impending comeback as a Netflix series. But few people are happier than Ron Howard, the Oscar-winning producer and narrator behind the short-lived show. With the Mitch Hurwitz-created series officially back in production, Howard no longer has to answer the dreaded question of whether or not "Arrested" will ever come back.
"It's great. People stopped believing me when I would say 'I think it's going to happen! I can't guarantee it, but I think it's going to happen!' It really is a thrill," Howard told MTV News about the "Arrested Development" revival. "I visited the set last week. It's a blast over there. Mitch Hurwitz has such a remarkable, creative voice. It's the perfect set of actors to bring it to life. I'm so glad it's back. I'm a fan, too. The scripts are hilarious."
Howard's lips are sealed regarding the specifics of the new string of "Arrested" episodes, but he promised a healthy balance between fan service and creating brand-new pun-filled situations and characters that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the likes of Bob Loblaw and the Surrogate.
"Mitch isn't trying to recreate something," Howard said. "It's been away for a while, and part of the fun that Mitch has been mining and exploiting is, what's new to discover about these people? What's delightfully unchanged? He and the writing staff and the actors have a fantastic sense of that. They're pretty brazen, pretty bold and fearless. That's what made the show into something that fans really kept alive."
Not only is "Arrested" alive, it's thriving. Howard promised that despite "a hell of a hiatus," everyone involved in the project "is in great form and dying to take the characters further."
"They're having the greatest time getting together and getting back into it," he said. "It's cool and bold and funny, and out there taking chances, just like it always did."

Alaska Wing Men, Friday, June 8TV and Radio

National Geographic, 9.30pm
THERE'S some white-knuckle flying as veteran Alaskan aviator Dom takes student pilot Amy for lessons that involve landing his light plane on a glacier and a frozen lake. Amy may be a good pilot but the lessons are not what you would call uneventful. And then there's the handgun lessons, in which Dom teaches her to shoot at grizzly bears - two of which he says he's had to kill in self-defence. It's certainly a wild world up there but perhaps the most interesting bit is the part in which Dom explains how air exhibits ''fluid dynamics'', flowing like water over, down and around hills, ridges and mountains. Elsewhere, other pilots face tricky landings on water and snow as they drop off hunters and skiers. Worth a look.

The Market Revolution
The Market Revolution Books
In this short, nicely written example of the "new social history," Johnson explores the impact of the Erie Canal on the manufacturing sector of Rochester, New York. Early chapters provide a straightforward but interesting description of the structure of work and residence in a traditional local economy. In later chapters, Johnson explores the role played by Charles Finney and revivalism in reconstructing communal ties.
This is a long but masterful discussion of the market revolution. The book is more than a narrow discussion of changing market conditions; instead, Sellers traces the interwoven economic, social, political, and cultural threads of Jacksonian America. Authoritative and elegantly written, readers interested in a comprehensive introduction to the period should begin with this book.
In this book, Dalzell explores the decision made by the founders of the Boston Manufacturing Company to shift their family resources from trade to manufacturing. Readers interested in just an introduction to Francis Cabot Lowell's innovative leadership among New England entrepreneurs will get more than they may want. But readers interested in understanding the familial and social concerns that shaped the founding and development of New England's textile industry will be rewarded.
In this collection of essays, early national historians explore various aspects of economic development occurring in the half century after the Revolution. Gilje provides a sort of nuts-and-bolts introductory discussion that students will find useful. Other essays explore shifting economic patterns among craftsmen, women, northern farmers, and southern planters.
Hatch views the Second Great Awakening as a genuinely democratic movement in synch with a broader attack on authority running throughout America after 1800. He therefore focuses on popular evangelists like Lorenzo Dow and John Leland rather than moderating figures like Charles Finney. Hatch's writing nicely captures the energy and excitement of the popular movement he describes.

- MRC Press Release - March 16, 2012
MRC GOLF Introduces KURO KAGE™ Woods, Hybrids and Irons
Carlsbad, CA - (March 16, 2012) - MRC GOLF, INC. Introduces KURO KAGE™, the latest addition to our family of premium golf shafts. The KURO KAGE™ series of golf shafts would not have been technically possible as little as 2-3 years ago. Mitsubishi Rayon's team of engineers has found a way to create a new High Density Prepreg: A prepreg material with 15% more carbon fiber and much less resin (20% vs. 33%) than found in standard shaft prepreg.
The initial KURO KAGE™ design features Mitsubishi Rayon's signature "smooth" bend profile, offering balanced stiffness at both ends of the shaft with a softer mid section. The High Density Prepreg has been positioned in the lower third, for enhanced feel and stability in this new series.
High Density Prepreg
Mitsubishi Rayon has combined its tour-proven "smooth" bend profile with a new High Density Prepreg. A higher density of Carbon Fibers and less resin translates into increased stability and enhanced feel. The weight saved by using less resin allows Mitsubishi Rayon to have more control over the entire profile.
Bend Profile
The KURO KAGE™ bend profile, with its firm tip, soft mid section, and firm butt section, provides golfers of all skill levels with a versatile shaft that will respond throughout the swing. The addition of the High Density Prepreg to the lower third of the shaft allows Mitsubishi Rayon to create a shaft that is stable without a harsh feel.
Pricing & Availability
The new KURO KAGE™ shafts will be available through MRC GOLF Authorized Retailers and Dealers nationwide beginning March 16, 2012 and will have a suggested retail price of $200 USD for the wood shafts, $100 for the hybrid shafts and $60 for the iron shafts.
KURO KAGE™ is available in the following weights and flexes:
MRC GOLF, INC. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd. (MRC) dedicated to designing and developing high performance composite golf shafts for discerning golfers everywhere. MRC GOLF leverages their own resources and raw materials (vertical integration), which gives them a competitive advantage. Over the years, MRC GOLF has been a leading supplier of premium composite golf shafts worldwide. With many of the world's best players using Mitsubishi Rayon golf shafts, MRC GOLF has established itself as a dominant force in the golf industry.
MRC was established in 1933 as a manufacturer of rayon fibers. Since then, the company's interests have diversified to include specialized chemicals, plastics, and other synthetic fibers. Through continuous design and innovation, MRC has expanded its business focus into other areas that include resin systems, carbon fibers and composite materials, and a variety of other specialty products, including composite golf shafts. MRC's vertical integration advantage, the ability to design, develop and manufacture any combination of resins and fibers, sets them apart from their competition and gives them a competitive advantage. Today, MRC is recognized as the world leader in manufacturing and supplying carbon fiber and composite materials for performance based sporting goods applications.

On April 18, 2007 the United States Supreme Court upheld the ban on partial-birth abortion. In that decision, Gonzales v. Carhart, the court described another abortion procedure that remains legal throughout America. It is called the D & E procedure. Here are the exact words of the Supreme Court:
"The doctor grips a fetal part with the forceps and pulls it back through the cervix…, continuing to pull even after meeting resistance from the cervix. The friction causes the fetus to tear apart. For example, a leg might be ripped off the fetus as it is pulled through the cervix and out of the woman. The process of evacuating the fetus piece by piece continues until it has been completely removed."

Aston Hotels and Resorts are well-known in the Hawaiian Islands, but many vacationers have not yet discovered Aston's new boutique hotel that is unlike any other property in the heart of Waikiki.
Just a two-minute walk from Waikiki Beach, the uniquely tranquil and intimate Hotel Renew has been renovated to look like a completely new property.
It has only 72 rooms that depart from the typical Hawaiian fare with tiki torches. Instead, San Francisco designer Jiun Ho employs textured woods and fabrics in a modern urban chic décor of a palette of monochromatic colors and high-end furnishings with just an occasional splash of bright color.
My room had a picture perfect view of Waikiki Beach. Although it was possible to open the windows, I closed them and turned on the air conditioner to successfully block most of the traffic noise below. At night, with the air conditioner off, the temperature was just right.
Each morning, there was coffee, fresh fruit and pastries in the small lounge which also served as the cocktail bar and gathering place in the evening. Because the area was usually crowded, I preferred to pick up the daily newspaper and take the continental breakfast to my nearby room.
The continental breakfast and newspapers were just a few of the perks offered by the new Club Renew, an enhanced amenity package for all the guests. The amenity fee of $25 also included:
o Free access to the Marriott's two resort pools and full-service fitness facility across the street
o Use of the hotel's beach towels, mats and chairs
o Complimentary DVD rentals
o Weekly free mixer with hosted cocktails by the friendliest expert bartenders
o Signature drinks each evening at bargain Happy Hour prices
o Wireless Internet access throughout hotel
o Mobile concierge service for booking restaurants, tours, and transport
o eReaders for each guest to use
o Free local and toll-free calls
Best of all, the entire staff could not have been more courteous and helpful.
The price of my room was about the same as the large Aston Hotel next door, while a room with a similar view at the Marriott Hotel across the street would have cost me about $100 more each day.
The next time I'm in Waikiki, I plan to head straight for Hotel Renew.

Logan Brittain officially donned the colors that he knew would be a comfortable fit all along.
Brittain, a two-time Class 4A high jump state champion at Randall, signed a national letter-of-intent to compete for the University of Texas on national signing day Wednesday morning.
Even after it became official he would be competing in the burnt orange, Brittain still hadn't fully grasped the magnitude of his decision.
"It's unexplainable," Brittain said after signing with Texas. "It's been a dream my whole life to be an athlete at the University of Texas. I just feel like the most blessed kid in the whole world."
Talent has something to do with it as well. Brittain won the state high jump championship for Randall as a sophomore and a junior in Austin on the same University of Texas track that he will compete on for the next four years. As a sophomore, he won with a leap of 7 feet.
That captured the attention of track programs throughout the country. In addition to Texas, Brittain also visited Kansas State. But he felt the call of Austin more strongly than anywhere else.
"I looked at more schools, but I knew that deep down (Texas) was the only school I really wanted to go to," Brittain said.
In addition to track, Brittain also has lettered in basketball at Randall, and this week he helped the Raiders clinch a playoff berth. He also was a three-year letter winner at wide receiver and defensive back in football.
But track has been where Brittain has had his biggest success. If all goes well, his high school career will end at the same track in Austin where his college career will begin.
"I'm certainly going to compete at Randall and have fun here," Brittain said. "My goal is to win the third straight state championship. Getting to go (the Texas) for the next for years after this will be awesome."

The Florida Association of School Superintendents is asking lawmakers to consider allowing school districts to go to a four day week to save money. Under the proposed bill, school days would be longer.
By closing the extra day, school districts would save money on electricity, support staff salaries and fuel for buses.
Bay District school officials have a committee studying the proposal, but don't have any plans to jump on the bandwagon.
"I've heard two different sides on it, like everything else. It would save a lot of money. It would save time. But then again you have all those elementary parents, what are they going to do with their kids? If you're closed Monday or Friday, what are they going to do with them? And can those kids stand 2 or 3 more hours a day in school? What about after-school activities? What about those kids that have jobs? There are so many other nightmares that come along with it that we want to find out how other people deal with it before we'd really implement something like that," said Bill Husfelt, Bay County School Superintendent.
Daytona Beach state senator Evelyn Lynn is sponsoring the bill. Commissioner of education Eric Smith is against it.
If it passes, school districts would have the option to adopt it, or ignore it.

Sukkot means "booths," or "tabernacles," and this week-long holiday is also known as the Feast of Tabernacles. It is a joyous harvest festival and a reminder of how God sustained the children of Israel during their wilderness wanderings. The people were to dwell in temporary booths, and to rejoice over God's provision as well as his presence. Many Jewish people still build booths in their yards or synagogues for this holiday, and take their meals in these temporary dwelling places.
As you'll see in this section, Sukkot is a powerful reminder of how God tabernacled with us in the past, how he continues to do so today and how he will ultimately dwell with us forever, through Y'shua (Jesus) who lives and reigns in the hearts of those who believe in him. The Feast of Tabernacles also contains two powerful elements, water and light, that foreshadowed Messiah, who is gives us Living Water and who is the Light of the world. There's much to unpack regarding Sukkot and you'll want to "camp out" in this section for awhile.

fig and walnut biscotti
print now | return to original post
Fig and Walnut Biscotti
Adapted from Gina DePalma, The Babbo Cookbook
I hadn't realized how fragrant these would turn out; our apartment is a cloud of orange and spice. They're crazy tasty too, they have a good crunch but have small spots of softness from the figs, and a little crackle from the fig seeds.
This is a half-recipe; the original yielded double but this seemed like plenty.
Makes approximately 24 biscotti
1 cup walnut pieces
1 cup dried Turkish or Calimyrna figs, quartered
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons or 3 ounces) unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
6 tablespoons dark brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Grated zest of 1/2 a large orange (I used a clementine)
1 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (or 2 cups minus 2 tablespoons) unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon. ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 egg white, lightly beaten
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet and toast for 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Allow the walnuts to cool completely
2. Place the walnuts and dried figs in a food processor and process until they are finely chopped.
3. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula occasionally. Beat in the vanilla and the orange zest.
4. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices. Beat the dry ingredients into the butter mixture to form a somewhat firm dough. Add the walnuts and figs and beat until thoroughly combined. Wrap the dough tightly in plastic and chill 35 to 40 minutes or until completely firm.
5. When the dough has chilled, lightly grease a baking sheet. On a floured board, use your palms to roll the piece of dough into a log the length of the baking sheet. Place the log on the baking sheet.
6. In a small bowl, beat the egg white with a fork until frothy. With a pastry brush, glaze the log with some egg white and sprinkle it with granulated sugar. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes (this took longer in my oven, but everything seems to these days), or until the log is lightly golden brown, firm to the touch and just beginning to crack slightly.
7. Allow the log to cool on the cookie sheet until cool to the touch, about 40 minutes. With a serrated knife, slice the biscotti, slightly on the bias, into 1/2-inch slices. Lay the slices on the cookie sheet in single layer (I always end up needing a second baking sheet in this step, as they have a lot more surface area); Return the biscotti to the oven and cook for 20 more minutes, or until the biscotti are toasted and crisp.
Store the biscotti in an airtight container. They will keep up to about 2 weeks.

SCOTTSVILLE, Ky. (WBKO) - The Center for Courageous Kids will soon be the owners of a brand new car.
We told you last week they were in the running for a new Toyota through the 100 Cars for Good Program. CCK walked away a winner with 33% of the vote.
Support came through online votes from across South Central Kentucky and across the nation.
"At the very end of the contest when we realized that we won, it was phenomenal. We were ecstatic. This feeling of thankfulness came over us because we would not have been able to do it without our supporters," says Sarah Keltner from CCK.
The new Sienna van will be delivered to the camp sometime over the next couple months.
The new vehicle will be used to transport campers across the region.

This past Friday was the last day of school before the kids went on winter break. It was also the last time a Jackson County man would see his 12-year-old son.
Last Friday when Bernard Longo came home from work, he noticed that his son, who attends Cottondale Elementary, was not home from school. Longo learned from a friend that the 12-year-old never got on the school bus.
Parent Bernard Longo says, "So we went to the school, and upon getting to the school we met up with a police officer who took us inside and told us that his stepmother had come there and checked him out."
Longo's ex-wife, Shelly Longo, apparently showed school officials adoption papers that were approved by a circuit judge in south Florida.
"There's is no way a judge should have given this woman custody of any child, especially mine, when she hasn't seen him in over three years, has never called, has never visited, nothing."
Cottondale police officials say the documents were legal and nothing was done wrong. That may explain why Longo can't seem to get any help from authorities when it comes to getting his son back.
"Besides the Cottondale Police Department, I've gone to the FDLE, the FBI, the state attorney's office, Jackson County."
Jackson County investigators did verify that the boy, Dominic Longo, is in south Florida with his stepmother.
Santana Longo, Dominic's sister, says, "I tried calling him Saturday and her boyfriend told me that he didn't want to talk to me."
Bernard Longo says he has reason to believe his son's life maybe in danger.
"She wanted to have me killed. I know this woman hates me enough that would hurt my son just to get back at me."
Bernard Longo says he ultimately blames the school board because the only two people on the list to sign his son out of school are him and his daughter. No one from the school was available for comment.

Black Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 smiles for the camera, gets revealed for the first time
The Galaxy Note 8.0 was officially unveiled by Samsung little over a week ago. However, all the official images and renders of this upcoming tablet that the Korean company posted online ever since have been of the white version. That's a bit odd, but fret not for we now have renders depicting the Galaxy Note 8.0 in black, in all its glory.
The images below have been leaked to Phone Arena, and show the Charcoal Black variant of the tablet. And as you can see, it's… black. Not a whole lot to drool over in this case, but at least we now know that the Galaxy Note 8.0 will be launched in more than just white.
When and where the black version of the device will become available is still a mystery. But like all mysteries in the mobile world, it will stop being so in a matter of weeks, we assume. The leaks will start pouring in, then Samsung will make an official announcement about availability, and so on.
There may be more color versions of the tablet in a few months, since Samsung loves to do new hues after a while to refresh its already selling products. Then again, that applies more to phones than tablets, so maybe white and black is going to be it for the Note 8.0. We'll have to wait and see.

Comment on: 'What can we do about 'difficult' patients?'
This is an excellent article. I completely agree with your statements about taking a step back and then looking again at the patient and treating patients the way you would want your family members to be treated. In the years prior to my going into nursing training I worked as a home carer and some days could be very challenging but I always treat every service user the way I would want my relatives to be treated
