Furnaces are a common appliance used in the majority of homes for heating during the colder months, and may be powered by electricity, oil or gas. Furnaces, specifically wood-powered furnaces, have been subject to recalls within the last decade. In recent years, some domestically manufactured and imported furnaces have been recalled due to faulty parts including problems such as design flaws or incorrect instillations. In some cases, recalls have been attributed to modifications that were designed to improve energy efficiency or to meet new legislature standards, which have resulted in serious hazards to life and property.
Risks from Defective Furnaces
The major risks resulting from defective manufacture and improper assembly and installation of furnaces include two issues. The first involves the risk of fire while the second includes the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs due to incorrect venting or leaking of pipes, which allows exhaust fumes to leak into homes, rather than being safely vented to the exterior of the buildings. Both of these problems are serious and have resulted in deaths and injuries, as well as financial losses among home owners.
Importance of Recall
Furnace recalls and the safety issues surrounding the recalls have been featured in the news in the recent months, with several manufacturers alerting customers to possible dangers involving their products. This serves to warn consumers before problems develop and aims to saves lives, prevent injury and property damage.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is responsible for issuing warnings concerning recalls, and makes the information about which models are involved in the recall available to the public. Any concerns about furnace safety may be referred to the CPSC by calling 800 683-2772 or visiting http://cpsc.gov.
Recalls of many products are monitored by the CPSC and are often performed with the cooperation of the company involved in the recall. The CPSC analyzes statements from the companies to determine if a product has been altered in a satisfactory manner, rendering it safe for use. They take public issue with companies seeking to limit their liability and exposure to lawsuits by forcing the companies to make sufficient information available to the public in a timely manner.
Recalls of Furnaces
Furnace recalls do not always involve a complete replacement of the furnace or total refund of the price paid for the furnace. A partial refund or voucher that can be used towards the purchase of a new furnace can also be an option companies offer, especially if the company is involved in a voluntary recall where no injuries or damage to property occurred.
Replacements of faulty parts at the company's expense and repair kits which may be installed by the furnace owner's contractor of choice are common ways companies fulfill their obligations to customers with defective furnaces. The offer of extended warranties to those with furnaces that are still running, and not considered at risk has been popular with some companies, while others arrange inspection by company or local approved maintenance providers. No time limit should apply to any claim made on a furnace listed as a recalled item, since the manufacturers are mandated by U.S. law to replace or repair faulty parts.
Please visit the Furnace Recall page to view which manufacturers have been involved in recalls, how the recalls were conducted by the companies responsible and the results of any litigation following accidents and injuries sustained while using faulty furnaces. Models involved in recalls are listed, including any serial numbers needed to identify those particular furnaces.

(Ivanhoe Newswire) – What do diabetes, cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, and death all have in common? Researchers say it's plasma levels of proneutrotensin, a precursor of the hormone neurotensin.
Neurotensin is an amino acid peptide primarily expressed in the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract. It regulates both satiety and breast cancer growth in the experimental setting, but little is known about its role in the development of breast cancer or cardiometabolic disease in humans.
Olle Melander, M.D., Ph.D., of Lund University, Malmo, Sweden and colleagues conducted a study to test if a fasting plasma concentration of proneurotensin is associated with future risk of diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, and death. Proneurotensin was measured in plasma from 4,632 fasting participants of the population-based Malmo Diet and Cancer Study baseline examination 1991-1994. Various models were used to evaluate the relationship between baseline proneurotensin and first events and death during long-term follow-up until January 2009, with median (midpoint) follow-up ranging from 13.2 to 15.7 years depending on the disease.
Proneurotensin was related to risk of new diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cardiovascular mortality, with a significant interaction between proneurotensin and sex on risk of cardiovascular disease. The authors were quoted as saying, "Exclusively in women, proneurotensin was related to incident diabetes, cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, total mortality, and cardiovascular mortality. As an observational study, our results do not prove any causation between proneurotensin and cardiometabolic disease and breast cancer."
The researchers note that the elevation of proneurotensin several years before the onset of a disease indicates that proneurotensin may be a marker of underlying disease susceptibility rather than an expression of subclinical disease. The authors admit that the relationships between proneurotensin and all end points were significant in women but not in men. Further research needs to be conducted to find out whether the association between proneurotensin and adverse outcomes are specific to women.

Places in Bali Island
Around the three main temples dedicated to the Trinity:
Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu, are 18 separate sanctuaries belonging to different
regencies and caste groups.
When the heat and humidity gets to you, why not escape
to Bedugul, Bali's highland retreat tucked into the crater of an extinct
volcano 1400 metres above sea level.
Tanah Lot Temple
Poisonous sea snakes found at the base of the rocky island are believed to guard the temple from evil spirits and intruder. The best time to see Tanah Lot is in the late afternoon when the temple is in silhouette.
Denpasar City
Ubud Village
Ubud gives you opportunity to see real Bali. It is a place for leisurely strolls through rice terraces, lush forests, breath-taking gorges and deserted swimming holes, all within walking distance from the center of Ubud. You must visit Monkey Forest - walk along Monkey Forest Road from Ubud, down into a dense forest where you will find a bunch of happy monkeys waiting for passing tourists.
Goa Gajah Temple
A kilometer from Goa Gajah is Yeh Pulu. After a short walk through rice terraces, you will arrive at an ancient rock carving dating from the 14th century. The carving depicts various scenes of everyday life and the figures of elephant-headed Ganesha indicating a close relationship between the two sites.
Uluwatu Temple
Goa Lawah Temple
Kerta Gosa
The Bale Kembang (Floating Pavilion) stands behind the Kerta Gosa. Its painted ceilings depict the legend of the hero Sutasoma and his sacrifices, and of Pan and Men Brayut, known as the couple who had too many offspring.
West Bali National Park
To enter Bali National Park one must go to the park office in Cekik. Accommodation is available in basic huts but you must bring your own bedding and untensils.
Tampak Siring
Batubulan also is famous for Barong Dance which is performed daily here. The dance symbolizes the never-ending battle between good and evil. The Pura Puseh Batubulan, a beautiful temple, is also worth visiting while in Batubulan.
Accommodation ranges from international hotels to home stays. The village abounds with restaurants, shops, discotheques and other tourist facilities. It is easier to find regular performances of Balinese music and dance in Kuta, staged specially for tourists, than anywhere else in Bali. Some performances are staged nightly. The village is ideal for meeting and mixing with other people, locals as well as visitors from abroad.

The 28 meter long passenger ship MS King went aground on the island of Lauttasaari in Helsinki, Finland. The MS King suffered no hull damage but was unable to free itself. The 54 passengers on board were evacuated to a sister ship. Later the same day the MS King was pulled free and towed to a berth at Salutorget. Initial reports state the master of the MS King was not on the bridge at the time of the incident. One report states the captain was trapped on the toliet and was unable to open the door. Authorities are conducting an investigation into the accident.

Paddlewheel Steamer Fire
The 83 meter long paddlewheel steamer Goethe suffered an engine room fire while off Oberwesel, Germany. The fire started when an oil pressure hose broke loose in the engine room. Damage to the engine room was slight, but there was heavy smoke. On board were 174 passengers who had to disembark due to the smoke. No one on board was injured. The Goethe was built in 1913 and was the largest paddle wheel steamer until it's steam engine was replaced with a diesel in 2008. It is the only paddlewheel steamer still in operation on the Rhine River.

Nutrient dense eating means just that: Eating foods that have a high nutrient density or foods that are among the healthiest foods available, having the most nutritional value to the body per calorie than other foods.
There seems to be a lot of talk about how eating healthy or nutrient dense foods is an expensive way to eat because high calorie, nutrient low foods are so cheap. While it is true largely due to these foods being government subsidized, eating nutrient dense foods like produce can be done within a budget.
The most current popular trend in eating healthfully is greens, which are nutritionally dense. Eating greens are not a new idea but the idea of putting them in smoothies is. It is also one way to get a nutrient dense breakfast, the meal that competes with a lot of nutrient weak choices.
Nutrient dense eating is affordable
Getting more nutrient dense foods like produce into the diet is not just a lifestyle change for some people but dealing with the thought of it being more expensive is what isn't necessarily accurate.
There is a way to eat nutrient dense foods and keep within the household budget.
A rule of thumb is: Do not pay more than $1/lb. for produce items.
How this is done: Buying what is on sale at your local grocer and/or eating what is in season.
There will need to be some planning done around the foods in this category, but some planning is always necessary in eating healthfully. Finding recipes from friends, family or online sources (www.genuinelivingandwellness.com) is a good way to build excitement around eating these high nutrient dense foods as a way of life. Finding just a couple of really great recipes is worth the work and can become a new healthy tradition

CPR Certification
Joseph Winchell, D.O. is the medical director of emergency services at the Banner Desert and Cardon Children's Emergency Center.
Question: I'm looking for a nanny to watch my children, and I've noticed that some candidates have CPR certification and others do not. How does someone become certified, and is this important?
A: Because medical emergencies like cardiac arrest or near-drowning happen most frequently at home, it's very important for anyone who cares for adults or children to be certified in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR.
Typically, teachers, first responders, nurses and other health care professionals are required to have CPR certification for their jobs, but even if someone isn't a regular caregiver or works outside these fields, certification can be life-saving in a variety of emergency situations.
Becoming CPR-certified involves three steps:
- attending a half-day class
- demonstrating effective use of the technique
- passing a test.
Classes are taught by trained instructors, and include education on giving CPR for adults and children, administering the Heimlich maneuver for choking victims, using an automated external defibrillator (AED) in presumed cardiac arrest, and proper ways to call for help. A dummy is used to provide students with hands-on training, and a written examination is provided at the conclusion of the course. Once the steps are completed, certification is valid for two years.
Certification classes are offered by nonprofit agencies like the American Red Cross and American Heart Association, and usually cost around $25. Other community organizations may offer CPR classes, but only a few are accredited to provide the actual certification and the latest information on these life-saving skills. Online courses are also available, though it is recommended that first-time certification be completed in a "live" class where the instructor can provide feedback during the hands-on portion of the course.

Koreas Plan Family Reunion Talks
The two Koreas on Monday appeared to move closer to resuming reunions of families separated by the Korean War after North Korea agreed to hold preparatory talks at the border this week.
Breaking its weeklong silence on the South's proposal that the reunions be held from Feb. 17 to 22, Pyongyang suggested a meeting on the northern side of the Panmunjom border village on Wednesday or Thursday
The South notified the North that it preferred Wednesday, Seoul's unification ministry said. North Korea later agreed.
"Given the urgency of the family-reunion issue, the government will prepare for the reunions to resume as soon as possible," ministry spokesman Kim Eui-do told a regular briefing.
Millions of Koreans were separated by the 1950-1953 war, with many of them dying without seeing each other again. No regular cross-border mail or phone services exist.
The two Koreas have only allowed family reunions on a temporary and irregular basis since the first such event in 1985. The project—involving cross-border travel and video chats–had flourished from the first inter-Korean summit in 2000 through 2010.
The rare symbol of inter-Korean rapprochement stopped after the North shelled a southern border island in 2010, killing two South Korean soldiers stationed there and two civilians.
North Korea last month offered to restart the reunions and asked Seoul to pick a date. South Korea suggested the Feb. 17-22 period, before the start of an annual U.S.-South Korean military drills, due late this month.
Pyongyang has previously used the drills, which it labels a prelude to invasion, as an excuse to scuttle inter-Korean peace projects.
The North gave no response until Monday. Seoul had pressed Pyongyang to prove that it was serious about its recent calls for better cross-border relations amid concerns that the moves were a deception ahead of new military provocations.
Last September the North abruptly canceled a scheduled family reunion event—then involving around 100 family members on each side. Pyongyang pulled the plug four days before the date in protest to Seoul's refusal to discuss re-opening a joint tourism venture at the Mt. Kumgang resort in the North before the reunions.

More than two decades ago, the Red River District had the reputation of being made up of the city's less lavished and more grungy parts of town. Today, though it may still possess some grunge, it is comprised of some of Austin's most recognized music clubs.
It can be presumed that Red 7 is a compound term for the bar's point of origin since it is depicted in it's cognomen. Above the entry is a symbol of a sickle and hammer giving some the impression of a possible foreshadowing of what lies ahead. Once the popular spot for the hip-hop crowds, in four years it has progressed into a unique hub for hardcore musicians. Most of the patrons are accustomed to the heavy metal and indie sound and this is a great place to get their euphonious fix.
Red 7 is made up of two parts, the indoor game lounge including a moderately sized dance floor and the outdoor patio staging area. They have hosted many theme nights, any given night you will encounter a Nintendo for the big screen, Pinball and Arcade games, pool tables and disc jockeys. Even in a dim-lit setting, the posters and group flyers of past shows seem to illuminate the walls of this bar. The best part is that it is a very welcoming, laid-back scene. The bar might be 21+ but they are an all ages venue and they take pride it that. They are featuring a new drink menu that elaborates on the already cheap drink specials.
Jared Cannon, Gram Williams, and Tyson Swindle are the masterminds to this establishment and the focus for the future of this place it to continuing the legacy. Originally the idea for activities without live music on Tuesdays to be replaced with old school nintendo throw-downs was attributed to Johnny Sarkis.
Interestingly, the founders are all familiar with different degrees of the music business, they have all worked as musicians for over fifteen years along with other music labels, talent buys and special events. Gram is the creator of Transmission Entertainment and he has also worked other popular events in the community such as Mess w/ Texas and Fun Fun Fun Fest. An upcoming project that Red 7 is working to introduce to Austin is an event similar to Cleveland's Lottery League. It is a collaborative effort to bring musicians together, rent spaces, rehearse and form bands to perform a 20+ song set. The goal is 8 bands on 2 stages to showcase around April 10th.
Red 7 is participating in this years South by Southwest and will be hosting a variety of bands inside, kicking off the night will be the group HOPE in a one time only Descendents tribute performance with members of Zach Blair of Rise Against, Tony Barsotti&Doni Blair/Hagfish&Toadies, Luke Abbey/Gorilla Biscuits, Mike Herrera/MxPx, Mike Weibe and Rob Marchant/Riverboat Gamblers) also performing this night will be Tumbledown (formerly MxPx), Ume, True, Widow and The Mag Seven ofTheToadies/Hagfish.
A complete break-down of the outdoor SXSW highlights at Red 7 can be found at the SXSW 2010.

Let $\mathbb{Q}$ be the set of rational numbers endowed with a topology (let's say subspace topology). What could we say about its fundamental $\pi_{1}$ and homology groups?
Presumably, $\pi_{0}(\mathbb{Q}) = \mathbb{Q}$ since rationals are totally disconnected. I would also think that $\pi_{1}(\mathbb{Q},x_{0}) = \mathbb{Q}$ for some $x_{0} \in \mathbb{Q}$ since no two points of rationals can be connected by a loop. What about the homology groups?
Could anyone confirm? Or does anyone have an idea on how to proceed? Or maybe some relevant references?
EDIT: We need of course a basepoint for a fundamental group of space that is not path-connected and applying Hurewicz was a very poor choice. Thanks for correcting.

Real earnings in April 2010
May 24, 2010
Real average hourly earnings for all employees rose 0.1 percent from March to April, seasonally adjusted. This increase stems from a 0.1-percent decrease in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) while average hourly earnings remained unchanged.
Real average weekly earnings rose 0.4 percent over the month, as a result of a 0.3-percent increase in the average work week combining with the increase in real average hourly earnings. Over the past 6 months, real average weekly earnings have risen by 1.2 percent.
Real average hourly earnings fell 0.6 percent, seasonally adjusted, from April 2009 to April 2010. The decline in real average hourly earnings, combined with a 0.6-percent increase in average weekly hours, resulted in essentially no change in real average weekly earnings during this period.
These earnings data are from the Current Employment Statistics program. Earnings data are preliminary and subject to revision. To learn more, see "Real Earnings—April 2010" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-10-0686.

New York based graphic novel publisher "Z2 Comics" has quickly arisen as a place where creators with more "alternative" pieces of work can find a safe haven for publication. The latest such creator to capitalize is Dean Haspiel, a long time artist and illustrator who has earned an Emmy award for his work with HBO's "Bored to Death" and several Eisner and Ignatz awards for a career which stretches back all the way to 1987. One of his first creations for the anthology series "Keyhole" was the character of Billy Dogma, a hulking "last romantic anti-hero" who has since starred in his own comics and graphic novels from the 90's until now and graced the mediums of both print and digital comics. He's also worked on a number of more mainstream comics as an artist, including Archie Comics' "The Fox" and DC Comics' "Batman '66", and may also be best known for collaborations with Harvey Pekar in "American Splendor".
Released earlier this month, the latest "Billy Dogma experience" is "Fear, My Dear", which actually collects two tripped out, action packed, and very sexual adventures of the aforementioned hero and his love, Jane Legit. This is far from the first Billy Dogma story, although after reading this, one may wonder if any knowledge of previous ones would aid in the "experience" at all. And the term, "experience", is a perfect one to use when describing reading this work (which is entirely written, drawn, and colored by Dean Haspiel). These are less stories with a beginning, middle, and end of a plot and more of an expression of feelings and metaphors mingled with action and no end of quotable non sequiturs. The first story is called "Immortal" and involves Billy Dogma being so in love with Jane Legit that he pummels a crook in a bar for insulting her, causing his arrest (which the brute allows). However, Jane quickly arrives to liberate him and their love romps awaken an ancient space giant with a missing heart. The pair then go about trying to fill it with the mementos of others so it can return to space with love. The second story, "Fear, My Dear" involves Billy and Jane going on a mind bending trip to come to terms with Billy's father's death and on issues of role models, legacies, and fear of the future.
Beyond a few rare splash pages, Haspiel employs a simple four-panel-a-page style to his work, as well as smooth lines with iconic figures. Billy Dogma is very much the epitome of masculinity, while Jane Legit is very much a combination of modern femininity and butt kicking. His use of color is simple and often to color the hue of an entire story; "Immortal" is red, while "Fear, My Dear" is yellow. And as more of an "experience" than a story, it can be best described as a comic which may not always make sense in terms of a clear narrative most are used to, but which still provides an entertaining ride. The language is full of swear words and healthy doses of nudity, alongside plenty of butt kicking. The dialogue may seem bizarre, but it quickly becomes memorable - especially Billy's usual exclamation of, "S***! F***! P***! Karate!" While Billy may be a philosopher and a brute, Jane is more than capable of keeping up with him in both love making, philosophy, and stomping opponents.
Some may fault this in terms of having a confusing narrative, but that's akin to faulting a music video or a poem for lacking a precise narrative. This work is all about Dean Haspiel using his figures and lines to embellish some very visceral emotions, fears, and doubts about the human condition. It's not for everyone but those who choose it will be in for a brass knuckled, love soaked and philosophically explosive adventure into the weirdly familiar.

A new bride killed her husband by pushing him off a cliff at Glacier National Park during an argument. U.S. prosecutors seek a life sentence against her in sentencing hearing.
Jordan Graham, 22, pleaded guilty to second degree murder after reaching a deal with prosecutors in December. Graham is set to be sentenced next week after murdering her husband on July 7, 2013. Graham and her husband, Cody Johnson had only been married for eight days when she killed him.
Graham's agreement with the prosecutors was reached just as closing arguments were starting in her federal murder trial. Prosecutors agreed to drop first degree murder charges that would have carried a mandatory life sentence.
According to prosecutors, while Graham was arguing with her new husband, she deliberately shoved him off of a rock ledge. The newlyweds were hiking up a steep trail at Glacier at the time.
Graham then lied to investigators in an attempt to cover up the murder. After reaching the plea deal, Graham appeared before U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy and admitted her guilt.
Graham stated that her husband had grabbed her hand during the argument and she "just pushed his hand off and just pushed away."
In a sentencing recommendation filed by federal prosecutors, the prison term of 24 to 30 years on the second degree murder count would be "insufficient" and they went on to describe Graham as "extremely dangerous, predatory and an unrepentant murderer."
U.S. Attorney for Montana, Michael Cotter wrote, "The defendant, despite offering no remorse, has left a mother childless, upended a community and shown no respect for the law during this entire process." Cotter wants the judge to sentence Graham to at least 50 years.
Graham's federal defense attorney Michael Donahoe wants her to be given a 10 year sentence claiming that his client had no criminal record before what he described as a "tragic event." Donahoe went on to say that Graham was unlikely to commit another crime and did regret that she hadn't come forward sooner.
In his legal filings, Donahoe wrote, "She is worthy of punishment and the shame that will no doubt accompany her for the remainder of her life. Defendant has confided to the undersigned that a day does not go by that she doesn't think of her husband and what might have been."

Aaron Siskind Foundation Announces 2014 Grant Recipients
The Aaron Siskind Foundation announced the five winners of their 2014 Individual Photographer's Fellowship grants yesterday. The grant recipients are Lucas Foglia, Curran Hatleberg, Gillian Laub, Peter van Agtmael and Tomas van Houtryve. Each of this year's winners receives an $8,000 award.
There were two rounds of judging for this year's IPF grants. The first round judges included curator Elisabeth Biondi, Harper's Magazine Art Director Stacey D. Clarkson and Alexa Dilworth, of the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University. Photographer Elinor Carucci, Curatorial Assistance CEO Graham Howe, and Morgan Library Curator of Photography Joel Smith were the final round judges.
The IPF program was started in 1991, the same year that the Foundation was created, in keeping with photographer Aaron Siskind's request that upon his death his estate be used to support and inspire contemporary photography. The grants are open to photographers of all levels who reside in the U.S. and are 21 years of age or older, as long as their work is "based on the idea of the lens-based image," according to the Foundation's website. Awards of up to $10,000 have been given every year since the IPF's inception—with the exception of 1999, 2002, 2003 and 2006. Past recipients have included Gregory Crewdson, Matt Eich, Lisa Elmaleh, Ashley Gilbertson, Ron Jude, Wayne Lawrence, Jenny Riffle and Joshua Lutz.

The Bruins' 6-1 start to Pac-12 play is their best record to open conference action since 2006 when they won their first seven before a five-set loss to Stanford. UCLA went 15-3 in the then-Pac-10 that season, tying for second, and advancing to the National Semifi\nals ... the Bruins are a perfect 6-0 on Fridays ... UCLA is 13-0 this season when heading into intermission with a second set win, but 0-2 when it loses the second ... the Bruins hold a 6-0 record when hitting better than .250 in a match. On the flip side, UCLA is 12-0 when holding its opponent under a .200 hitting percentage ... the Bruins have not lost this year when out-killing their opponent (13-0) or out-aceing them (8-0).

Over the past ten years, it seems documentaries about the U.S. food system have grown in number. While the ones that are successful tend to be ones that work to gross out the audience or inspire rage at horrible conditions for animals set for slaughter, "Fed Up" tackles a popular theme without relying on ickiness: obesity in America. Narrated by Katie Couric, childhood obesity's rise is explained through a look at the changes in the food industry since around 1980.
Highlighting studies that have been slid under the rug, "Fed Up" focuses on findings from 1977 and after that have been ignored and replaced with a sweeping, exponentially increasing reliance on processed foods. Pointing out the changes in the food industry since approximately 1980, "Fed Up" logically argues that these changes have led to the shocking increase in childhood obesity in the U.S. Though a wave of exercise and fat-free solutions has risen to make consumers attempt to take charge of their bodies, "Fed Up" exposes the trickery food companies rely on, mainly substituting the cut fat with extra sugars. The film also argues that a calorie is not a calorie, that calories from food like almonds are processed differently than calories from soda and many other things.
"Fed Up" presents perspectives from varied sources, balancing between politicians citing the manipulations of food companies to prevent positive change within food policy and those that study the effects of different food on our bodies. Former President Clinton and famed author Michael Pollan are two of the respected names interviewed. Sources concur that the government is influenced by the profits of the food industry and even the World Health Organization has been dissuaded to share their opposing findings or fear a loss of funds. Instead, food companies use spin to gloss over the facts and limit change; sugar has been added in heavy doses in many products (creating addiction), consumers are encouraged to put cheese on everything, and fast food is allowed to take over the school lunch programs by labeling pizza and French fries as permissible vegetable options.
While "Fed Up" centers on how the food industry has negatively changed in the past 35 to 40 years or so, it strangely targets Michelle Obama for not doing enough to expose the food industry's manipulation. Michelle Obama and her "Let's Move" campaign are labeled ineffectual for not getting to the real problem (apparently the filmmakers are unaware of her efforts with the White House garden and using it for many projects along with appearing on "Sesame Street" to promote the importance of fresh fruits and vegetables). The filmmakers are just bothered by her compromising position to not point fingers at food companies' unrestricted reliance on sugar to sell products. Obama refuses to attack companies but rather promotes a healthy lifestyle with exercise AND a healthy diet. The filmmakers' presentation on Obama feels too personal and unnecessary.
As Katie Couric narrates, "Fed Up" started as just a little story she discussed early in her career but has become a lingering topic; obesity will not be conquered nor cease to garner so much attention until changes are implemented in the food industry. The real tragedy is the numerous youth, three interviewed in the film, which will battle obesity without the proper tools and knowledge.
Rating for "Fed Up:" B

Oak Hill Cemetery
Consecrated in 1842, Oak Hill Cemetery is one of the first rural garden cemeteries in the United States.
During the consecration ceremonies, the Reverend Jonathan F. Stearns, of the First Presbyterian Society (Old South Church), addressed the audience and said,
………We do not think to vie with Mount Auburn or Harmony Grove. It is enough for us if we secure to ourselves a quiet, tasteful, hallowed spot, where the dust of our departing friends may be treasured, and where we ourselves may repose by their side, when a few more of these suns shall have set. Such a spot "Oak Hill Cemetery" is – a perfect gem in its kind……"
Still an active burial ground, Oak Hill is a place for reflection and quiet walks through beautiful landscape, to enjoy bird watching and photography, and to reminisce about the rich history of Newburyport.
Since the fall of 2007, the cemetery has received funding from the Arakelian Foundation, Newburyport Five Cents Savings Bank, the Newburyport Community Preservation Committee, the Essex National Heritage Commission, and the Historic Gardens of Newburyport and Its Environs. Funding is assisting the trustees with the Ellen T. Brown Memorial Chapel, and the gravestone and heritage tree restoration projects.
Stayed tuned for the upcoming publication, "Tiptoe Through the Tombstones, Oak Hill Cemetery, Volume I." The book is expected to be available in local bookstores in December 2008.

Vice City Fire Department
From Grand Theft Wiki
Revision as of 23:19, 22 September 2008 by Warhammerork (talk)
The Fire Department of Vice City is the city's fire brigade in GTA Vice City, responding to fire-related emergencies. There are two fire stations owned by the Vice City Fire Department (FDVC) in Vice City:
- Vice City Mainland: By the side of the main street that ends up north in front of Ammu-Nation, Downtown
- Vice City Mainland: In the north-west corner of the airport, Escobar Int. Airport
The fire stations are (obviously) the best place to find firetrucks.

Will Elliott Neese check into rehab in episode 7 of "Deadliest Catch" season 10? After the May 27 episode, it was apparent that Elliott was dealing with a lot before heading to the bar, leaving his crew behind on the Saga.
According to next week's episode preview Discovery released on May 28, rehab for Elliott will be one of the focal points of the show. In part of next week's synopsis for episode 7, it reads: "One captain faces what might spell the end of a storied career while another struggles to check into rehab."
Elliott's father, Mike Neese, is worried about him. As he expressed, he's concerned for his behavior and pegs alcohol as his son's number one problem, which leads to other problems. Mike Neese added that it's "brutal" seeing what his son is going through.
Elliott discussed his past with substance and alcohol abuse on Tuesday's "Deadliest Catch" episode. He spent a lot of money on substance at around the age of 16.
"I almost regret making so much money when I was young," Neese said.
Once he tried cocaine, Elliott summed it up by saying, "game over." The young captain shared that he didn't realize how strong "triggers" were until he experienced them himself.
Neese's PR manager, Shannon, posted a message on Twitter to fans after the May 27 episode:
"(Shannon) Thank you to all of the fans who brought their own stories of dealing with addictions to us tonight. Our thoughts are with you!"
Will Elliott Neese check into rehab in episode 7?
"Deadliest Catch," season 10, episode 7, airs Tues., June 3 on Discovery at 9 p.m., ET.

The IT contractor responsible for putting together the much maligned Obamacare website is being dropped by the government. Washington Post reports on Jan. 10 that the government will now pursue a one-year contract with another contractor for nearly $900 million. The government concluded that CGI Federal has not been effective in fixing Healthcare.gov.
They will now move forward with Accenture. Washington Post's report states that the firm has a long history of dealing with computer systems on the state level and even built California's health insurance exchange. However, the consulting firm has not had experience with any federal healthcare plan.
So far, Washington Post's report is based on information close to the matter. However, no one from CGI Federal, Accenture or the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services will confirm the switch. However, the existing contract with CGI is set to run out at the end of February, so it isn't unlikely that the government would be ready to move on a few months early, especially considering the past history.
Officials who have remained unnamed ahead of the official announcement have noted that leaders with the CMS have become frustrated with the quality how CGI's fixes for the issues with the healthcare marketplace.
The change should be a positive one. As Washington post notes, Accenture has "significant technological expertise." However, it appears that Accenture and CGI have competed for projects in the past and problems could potentially arise on that front. As this change in contractors will require both firms to work together as the project changes hands, the outgoing firm will hopefully do their part in a timely manner.

I'm newbie to Ubuntu. I have a laptop. This is designed for Windows 7. Anyway I want to install Ubuntu here.
I used Ubuntu Server several times, but all in the virtual machines. So installation on physical machine is first time now.
In Windows 7, I had to install many drivers to make it perform well. For example, Intel's chipset driver, storage driver, NIC driver, and Atheros' WLAN driver. Actually WLAN didn't even detected without the driver.
Should I install something like that driver on Ubuntu to make it perform as its designed performance? How about WLAN? I can't figure out how can I make the LAN & WLAN NICs.

As baby boomers hit their sixties, many are confronting health problems. While some are minor, others are far more serious. As a generation, baby boomers are committed to staying young and healthy through physical exercise, mental fitness activities, a nutritious diet and an active lifestyle. Yet, many boomers are now confronting critical health issues including chronic diseases.
Surprisingly, despite the baby boomer generation's obsession with staying fit, many boomers are not as healthy as their parents were at the same age. AARP www.aarp.org reports boomers are heavier and pop far more pills than their parents' generation. Although baby boomers are projected to have a longer life expectancy than their parents, in reality they are aging faster physically and contracting chronic diseases at a much younger age.
According to CBSnews.com, many baby boomers in this country suffer from a high rate of chronic diseases, obesity-related diseases, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease and more disabilities than their parents at the same age. 'Thirty-nine percent of baby boomers are obese.'
Obviously, not all baby boomers are exercising and eating right, even though it seems to be the generation's mantra. Moreover, many baby boomers still smoke, which leads to a host of health problems. Other major baby boomer health issues include sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), HIV, Hepatitis C and arthritis.
There is also a relatively new boomer ailment which orthopedic doctors have dubbed 'Boomeritis.' This condition consists of a high rate of tendinitis, arthritis, tears and fractures suffered by baby boomers, according to Healthstuffworks.com. Most of these injuries are acquired through rigorous exercise and result in boomer visits to the ER, doctors' offices and sports medicine clinics.
While many boomers are health conscious, physically fit and active, other boomers need to focus more on their overall health and wellness. There are a number of things boomers can do to stay healthy:
- eat right, which means balanced, healthy meals including a number of fruits and vegetables;
- maintain a healthy weight;
- exercise regularly in some fashion, even if it means taking a walk every day;
- focus on mental exercises and brain fitness; and
- socialize and stay active.
The health problems some boomers are encountering in their early sixties should serve as a wakeup call for all baby boomers. The generation that has dedicated itself to physical fitness and staying young needs to stick to its mantra of exercising, maintaining a nutritious diet and remaining active to lessen the chance of confronting health problems and chronic diseases as they grow older.

10 Fresh Hair Ideas for Fall
Snow-white suits, ostrich feathers, thigh-high slits—some of the fashion trends on fall's runways don't exactly make a seamless transition to the street. Fortunately, getting the hair is decidedly easier. Here's a primer on the season's hottest hairstyles.
• Start smoothing in the shower with a rich conditioner, like Biolage Advanced Keratindose. After rinsing, gently squeeze out the water and pat dry with a towel.
• Apply a conditioning heat protectant, like Tresemmé Platinum Strength Heat Protect Spray or Dove Style + Care Frizz-Free Shine Cream-Serum (for coarse or unruly hair), and get out of that steamy, frizz-inducing bathroom.
• Rough-dry your hair halfway, working in sections with a large round boar-bristle brush.
• Once it's dry, rub a few drops of argan oil serum between your hands and smooth them over your head from top to tips.
• Flatiron the hair in one-inch sections.
• Spritz a leave-in conditioner on a boar-bristle brush and run it lightly through your hair.

Venezuela achieves a Happy Planet Index Score of 56.9 and ranks #9 of all the countries analysed.
Venezuela's HPI score reflects a relatively high life expectancy, high levels of experienced well-being, and a moderately high ecological footprint.
Other statistics
Venezuela's experienced well-being score is 7.5 out of a possible 10.
This is below Denmark, the country with the highest level of experienced well-being, but higher than that of the USA, which has an average score of 7.16.
The data for experienced well-being draws on responses to the ladder of life question in the Gallup World Poll, which was asked to samples of around 1000 individuals aged 15 or over in each of the countries included in the Happy Planet Index.
Venezuela's life expectancy is 74.4 and ranks #58 among the 151 countries analysed.
This is below the USA, which has a life expectancy of 78.4, but higher than Malaysia, which has a life expectancy of 74.2.
The life expectancy figure for each country was taken from the 2011 UNDP Human Development Report and reflects the number of years an infant born in that country could expect to live if prevailing patterns of age-specific mortality rates at the time of birth in the country stay the same throughout the infant's life.
Venezuela's Ecological Footprint is 3.02 global hectares per capita.
If everyone had the same Ecological Footprint as the average citizen of Venezuela:
- the world's Ecological Footprint would be 10% larger
- we would need to reduce our Ecological Footprints by around 70% in order to stay within sustainable environmental limits
Ecological Footprint is a metric of human demand on nature, used widely by NGOs, the UN and several national governments. It measures the amount of land required to sustain a country's consumption patterns.
For a majority of the countries (142 of the 151), Ecological Footprint data were obtained from the 2011 Edition of Global Footprint Network National Footprints Accounts. For the nine other countries included (Belize, Comoros, Djibouti, Guyana, Hong Kong, Iceland, Luxembourg, Malta, and Palestine), Ecological Footprint figures were estimated using predictive econometric models.
