Show me a caregiver and I'll show you a caretaker. They are usually one in the same. When you think of a caregiver many pictures could flash in your mind. A mom, grandmother or aunt? My friend in Australia refers to himself as a carer for his elderly mom.
Your caregiver could have been a caretaker, guardian, foster parent, babysitter, minder, nanny (also nannie), nurse, sitter; custodian, guard, keep, keeper, protector; attendant, chaperone (or chaperone), companion.
Full Definition of CAREGIVER: a person who provides direct care (as for children, elderly people, or the chronically ill)
Full Definition of CARETAKER: a person who takes care of buildings or land while the owner is not there, a person who gives physical or emotional care to someone (such as a child, an old person, or someone who is sick) one that gives physical or emotional care and support <served as caretaker to the younger children, one that takes care of the house or land of an owner who may be absent, one temporarily fulfilling the function of office <a caretaker government>.
Waiting for get blood drawn today I listened to a nice looking older man talking away with the same person I wanted to take my blood. Turns out what he had to say wasn't all bad; but what was amazing is that he was 80 years old. Later that day while in line at a department store I complimented the cutest older lady. She had an adorable yellow hat which matched her yellow jeans, her jacket and scarf had yellow within the pattern. Her makeup was applied nicely, and spoke I put my own makeup on. We talked and she was 85 years old and just loves shopping.
What do you do when your older parent, in my case, my mom has no experience in allowing others to help? No really I'm asking?
Most older Americans would prefer to receive care at home rather than in nursing homes, yet many states have been slow to reform Medicaid programs to make that choice widely available and no state programs authorize payments for family members to provide care for older loved ones at home. Most states do a much better job of using Medicaid dollars to help people with developmental disabilities remain in their homes and communities than to help older people and adults with physical disabilities.
Now to discuss the 'most older Americans'. Hundreds of thousands of the nation's seniors are misusing prescription drugs, including narcotic painkillers, anxiety medications and other pharmaceuticals, for everything from joint pain to depression. Hundreds of thousands of the nation's seniors are misusing prescription drugs, spurred by a medical community that often is quick to offer narcotic painkillers, anxiety medications and other pharmaceuticals for everything from joint pain to depression. And despite a push by public health officials to slash dispensing rates, doctors are prescribing the highly addictive drugs at record levels.
By many measures — rising overdose deaths, a spike in emergency room visits, increasing admissions to addiction treatment programs — the toll on the senior community is enormous, a USA TODAY review of government data finds. "There's this growing group of seniors, they have pain, they have anxiety … and a lot of (doctors) have one thing in their tool box — a prescription pad," says Mel Pohl, medical director at the Las Vegas Recovery Center, which treats seniors for pain and drug dependence. "The doctor wants to make their life better, so they start on the meds." Over time, patients build up a tolerance or suffer more pain and they ask for more medication, Pohl says. "And without anyone necessarily realizing, it begins a downward spiral with horrible consequences."
From 2003 I'm been on the rooftop yelling, "be your own advocate". It's a good thing I've had practice because I've been in the full blown advocate mode for my mom and stepdad.

Re: My rebuild thread
More updates in blue
ACS education, in rehab with another company, loan won't return to ACS afterwards - denied several GW removals. Rehab CA is reporting but will delete tradelines after 9 th payment received. Then the new loan company will report.
After several GW denials I got an ACS rep to agree to remove the "claim filed with government" notation. I figure it is a small victory and I will keep pushing for the lates to be removed or the TL to be deleted all together since they no longer hold the loan.
Still waiting for the "claim filed with government" notation to be removed.
2 HSBC charge offs $1200 total, last payment in 2011, they are both reporting balances even though they have said both accounts were sold. Only only CA is reporting, I'm waiting on a reply from a PFD I sent. The other CA isn't reporting so I'm making monthly payments to them.
One HSBC account has now been changed to Cap one on my report, that is the one I am making payments on. I actually didn't send a PFD to the other one, I sent a DV to the CA who half verified the info (right acct number but wrong name) so I resent a copy of their wrong validation and asked for a DV again. I am sure they will verify and once they do I will PFD the CA.
Haven't heard anything back from the second DV I sent but I received a letter from another CA claiming they own this account as well.
Ikea charge off $273, no CA reporting and no reply from ikea with PFD letter, set to fall off August 2014
Still no reply and one letter recently got returned to me. I decided to dispute this with all of the CRAs.
Awaiting dispute results
walmart charge off, no balance reporting acct sold to CA, waiting for reply on PFD from CA, set to fall off July 2014
I have sent Walmart a GW since they sold the acct and is reporting a zero balance. No reply from CA on the PFD
The CA that was listed mysteriously was deleted from my reports after I sent them a PFD. I send 2 GWs to Walmart each week, no response as yet.
waiting on capital one secured card to start reporting limit is $200 will increase limit before the end of the year
Received the card still waiting for Cap One to report it.
Cap One still isn't reporting on my reports. Cap One why are you taking so long??????
jefferson capital CA set to fall off Dec 2012
I got this removed early..YAY
An authorized user CC account is showing on my reports. It bumped my EX FAKO up 10 points.. YAY
15 US Dept loan tradelines in good standing reporting as current without any lates.
EQ Fico is 560 (Sept 2012) Hopefully this score bumps up close to 600 in November.
TU FICO is 597 (Oct 2012) but I have some items that I know will come off when I get my dispute results, plus I will have 2 new CC reporting. Looking forward to the 600 club when I refresh my score in the middle of November

The Utah Jazz couldn't have asked for a better outcome in the first round of the 2014 NBA Draft if it tried. After Australian guard Dante Exum inexplicably fell into the Jazz lap at No. 5, this loaded draft class was hit with one surprise after another on Thursday, June 23. The Toronto Raptors stunned the Barclays Center audience in Brooklyn and especially ESPN European basketball analyst Fran Fraschilla by picking a projected second round selection from Brazil at No. 20.
That shock first round pick by Toronto--along with a few other players going earlier than expected--sent Duke forward Rodney Hood into a freefall. Projected to go anywhere between the No. 12 and No. 20 selections in the draft, Hood was still available when the Jazz picked 23rd.
Like Dante Exum before, the Jazz wasted no time in making their minds up on this pick, grabbing Hood with the No. 23 pick. Hood's selection does make matters quite interesting going into a busy off-season that will see restricted free agent forward Gordon Hayward accept the qualifying offer the Jazz tendered recently--or take a max offer with whatever NBA team comes calling.
At any rate, Hood's arrival in Utah could cause as many ruffles as Exum's--because two players already are entrenched as starters at their positions. Hood seems to have already taken a liking to coming to play in Utah.
The former Duke star and arguably Mississippi State's greatest player until he left the school, Hood was also Duke's team captain during his one season on the court there, averaging 16 points and four rebounds per game. He'll join another Duke alum, new Jazz head coach Quin Snyder, on the team.
That he comes from such humble beginning may also explain his simple tweet exclaiming his happiness--having been selected with the No. 23 pick. Live on television, Hood did express some disappointment with dropping as far as he did, telling reporters he'll have "a chip on his shoulder" going forward.
It was a familiar refrain from many players who were drafted--yet fell from where they were expected to have been selected. But, Hood's post-draft press conference was filled with emotion as he expressed deep humility and gratitude for being picked, having come from Mississippi.
For the Jazz and Hood, it was a memorable night to say the least. Though they traded their No. 35 pick in the second round to Memphis for a 2016 second-round selection--thus ending their night in Brooklyn on this June evening--you would have to say that the Jazz graded high based on whom they were able to select.

Thread count is the magic number while shopping for bed sheets. Thread count is going to help to determine the quality of the sheets that are being purchased – and can even influence the cost of the sheets.
What is the thread count number seen on the packages of sheets? Thread count on the packages of sheets refers to the number of woven threads that are found in the sheets per square inch. The higher the number of threads in the sheets, the higher the quality of the sheets and the higher the thread count. This 'magic number' of thread count will also influence the price of the sheets, with the higher thread count of the sheets the higher the price of the set.
There are two numbers that are important when considering the thread count of a set of sheets, the horizontal count of the threads woven per square inch, the weft; and warp, the vertical threads that are woven in the sheet per square inch. The two numbers are combined to obtain the overall thread count of the sheets.
What is the price range of various thread count bed sheets?
- 180-320 Thread count ($20-40)
- 400-600 Thread count ($40-100)
- 600+ Thread count ($100+)
Learning about the thread counts and exactly what constitutes quality sheets will help the customer to make an informed decision, and choose quality sheets that are going to have to be replaced less often and create a more serene sleeping experience.
Thread count measures can be found through the packaging of the sheets in-store. Bed sheets that are purchased online have information available throughout the description of the sheets. Customers should ensure that the reviews are considered before buying sheets online, and ensure that the bed sheets are being purchased from a reputable online seller to ensure that the thread count that is portrayed in the description is the actual thread count that is going to be experienced when the sheets arrive in the mail.
While shopping, there are some tips that customers can use to ensure that they are getting high quality sheets. Higher thread count sheets will appear and feel smoother than their lower end counterparts with lower thread counts. Higher thread count sheets from high quality brands will also be singed or treated to remove any fuzz and create a highly tactile experience while touching the sheets, helping customers to identify high end sheets in the retail store.

Message to Miles Mann I have tried to send mail to the two email addresses I have for you, including one where I just clicked reply, but your mail from me is not going through. Nice to hear you on 40 meters last night. For voice, the frequency you mentioned the other day was 144.49 MHz. Will the voice uplink be different from time to time? I want to set up the memories in our FT-8100R so we can quickly get on the air should we hear voice from the ISS. Hope this on goes through. I might not be here to get it though. I leave noon tomorrow for Spain, getting back next Tuesday late (a work thing - however on the Mediterranean, so can not complain!).

Ever have to check a list of Linux servers for various things like what version of CentOS they're running, maybe how long each has been running to get an uptime report? You can and it's very easy to get going with it with the command gsh
Group Shell (also called gsh) is a remote shell multiplexor. It lets you control many remote shells at once in a single shell. Unlike other commands dispatchers, it is interactive, so shells spawned on the remote hosts are persistent.
It requires only a SSH server on the remote hosts, or some other way to open a remote shell.

In a previous review, this author was enamored with JBL's Synchros S700, the big brother to the reviewed Synchros S400BT headphones ($229.95). But, how does this new relation stand up to its big sibling?
The packaging between both brothers is very similar. The Synchros S400BT too possesses a deceptively plain, outer, white sleeve that displays pictures and product information. Just past that layer, a strikingly all orange box awaits with the phrase "Bluetooth freedom – with a touch of revolution." Some say, "there is no truth in advertising;" yet, this author completely disagrees, as this tagline exactly foreshadows JBL's product within.
Much like the S700, the S400BT too comes with a black, soft-sided carrying case. The front is embossed with JBL's logo and the back with the word "Synchros." This case is zipper enclosed and when opened, not only holds the S400BT, but also, a retention pouch in the lid for storage.
The S400BT comes as a primarily all black model (with a subtle white ring around the outer earcups) or a white model with blue accents. The headphones are composed of plastic and metal elements (including a stainless steel headband) that results in a lightweight product. By no means do these feel "cheap" and they lack the creaking plastic noise (that is present in much of the competition) when flexed.
The fit has been comfortable for hours due to plush padding on the earcups and at the top of the headband. The aforementioned conform nicely to one's ear and provide a substantial amount of passive noise cancelation.
Additionally, the adjustable headband nicely fit this author's larger-sized head. Both sides of the headband are capable of lengthening to one of fourteen sequential markings (each approximately 2mm). The earcups turn 90 degrees either left or right, thus, improving fit and allowing them to contort into the highly portable carrying case.
Even though the S400BT ship with two cables that connect to the left earcup (a 3.5mm audio cable and USB charging cable), one rarely needs either cable. First, these JBL headphones connect wirelessly via Bluetooth 3.0 or Near Field Communication (NFC). Syncing to various Apple devices was as easy as going to Settings -> Bluetooth -> selecting JBL S400BT. This author did not connect via NFC; but, if one believes the rumors, he will shortly be able to on the upcoming iPhone 6. Second, the S400BT's internal battery easily lasts the quoted 15 hours and charges to full in just over 2 hours.
Big brother, Synchros S700, had mind-blowing audio due to the integration of JBL's "LiveStage" technology. The S400BT lacks such tech; yet, still produces an accurate and enjoyable auditory experience. Moreover, these headphones integrated a satiating amount of bass without being single-minded.
The killer functionality of JBL's S400BT is their touch control. The left, outer earcup responds to all of the following intuitive gestures:
• Touch = Play/Pause
• Swipe Forward = Next Track
• Swipe Backwards = Last Track
• Swipe Upwards = Volume Up
• Swipe Downwards = Volume Down
Ingeniously, JBL also inconspicuously incorporated a microphone into the body of these headphones that allows one to wirelessly answer/end calls via a simple tap.
While the smaller S400BT cannot match its brother in audio playback, it more than makes up for it with portability, excellent battery life, wireless connectivity via Bluetooth 3.0 / NFC, and amazingly cool touch controls. This author has been astounded by JBL's Synchros line of headphones for design, quality, and value. Apparently, he has not been the only one as JBL's Synchros S400BT headphones were an Honoree for CES 2014's Innovations Design and Engineering Awards. Lastly, this author cannot wait to meet any future offspring from this Synchros family of perfectionists.

Man of Steel
- Studio: Warner Bros. Pictures
- Release Date: Jun 14, 2013
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Man of Steel is more than just Avengers-sized escapism; it's an artistic introduction to a movie superhero we only thought we knew.
If the word "epic" has lost its meaning in the throes of recent summers, Man of Steel forcefully redefines it.
Feels both modern and traditional – a halfway house between the broodier Nolan way of shaking things up and the louder, bone-crunching style that director Zack Snyder established with films such as '300' and 'Sucker Punch'. Man of Steel is punchy, engaging and fun, even if it slips into a final 45 minutes of explosions and fights during which reason starts to vanish and the science gets muddy.
It aches for more depth and warmth and humour, but this is spectacular sci-fi — huge, operatic, melodramatic, impressive. It feels the right Superman origin story for our era, and teases what would be a welcome new superfranchise.
A bracing attempt to bring the legend back into contention that successfully separates itself from other Super-movies but misses some of their warmth and charm. But given the craft and class, this could be the start of something special
The most striking and curious aspect of Man of Steel is the way it minimizes and even shuts out women.
David Goyer, who wrote the script for Man of Steel from a story he concocted with Christopher Nolan, found a new way to make us care: The title character is disturbed by everything in his adopted home.
Caught in the slipstream between action and angst, Man of Steel is a bumpy ride for sure. But there's no way to stay blind to its wonders.
This is a pretty good action movie that justifies bringing back the Superman franchise -- a dubious proposition to begin with -- by taking the plight of the superhero seriously. Henry Cavill is charismatic in the lead role, Amy Adams is an ideal Lois Lane and, as the villain, Michael Shannon does the best Michael Shannon impersonation you've ever seen.
Deploying an impeccable American accent, Brit Henry Cavill may be as charming as the late great Christopher Reeve.
Goyer and Nolan have crafted in Man of Steel a taut, exploratory vision, and Snyder's later inheritance of the material indeed proves his best work since "Dawn of the Dead."
The action is plentiful and thumping; Marvel-size thrills await you and the generations of kids who still believe in Superman. I just mean that the movie finds its true, lofty footing not when it displays Kal-El's extraordinary powers but when it dramatizes Clark Kent's roiling humanity. The super part of Man of Steel is just O.K.; but the man part is super.
If you like your summer-movie explosions huge, Man of Steel delivers. But it seems as if it might have delivered even more than a glorious noise.
As much spectacle and action — minute-by-minute, frame-by-frame — as any movie anyone could think of. Zack Snyder's huge, backstory-heavy extravaganza is a rehab job that perhaps didn't cry out to be done but proves so overwhelmingly insistent in its size and strength that it's hard not to give in.
Snyder has cast Man of Steel with dramatic actors, not action stars, and it pays off.
Here are a few adjectives that do not apply to the new Superman movie: Beguiling. Frisky. Nuanced. Quiet. Even the title, Man of Steel, sounds too flighty for this film. Man of Lead, or Man of Plutonium, maybe.
The story, while sometimes soaring, is other times grounded by a hyperactive and numbing vibe. But Henry Cavill has the strapping good looks of the comic icon, and humanity to match his superheroism.
Snyder films the violence in Man of Steel the way he films most of the rest of the picture: Like a man chasing tornadoes and not even trying to keep subjects in frame. It's a choice, and not a bad one, necessarily — the Smallville farm scenes, in particular, respond well to the approach — but by the end it's a visually limiting one.
Snyder knows how to put on a show, and Man of Steel has a massive scope that's hard to resist... But what's missing from this Superman saga is a sense of lightness, of pop joy.
What it fails to supply much of — surprisingly, it must be said — is fun. This is serious business, Snyder seems always to be saying. This is badass. And given the sheer logistical size of the spectacle on display, it's a position that's hard to argue with.
At once frantically overblown and beautifully filigreed, Man of Steel will turn on everyone it doesn't turn off.
The serious-minded result has many super-cool moments. But when it gets clunky, it's super-meh.
It's a relief just to watch the actors act once in a while, and thankfully, Snyder is astute enough to punch some breathing holes in this steel-clad colossus.
The whole film ends up feeling weighed down: though Man of Steel bounds from one epic setpiece to another, you're left with the nagging feeling that you just can't work out what the central twosome see in each other. And for Superman and Lois Lane, that's hardly ideal.
Like Snyder's Sucker Punch, it's a confused but fascinating mishmash of religious, military, and sexual imagery.
While certainly the most dazzling Superman movie to hit the big screen, the 143-minute Man of Steel is also the longest, and it only justifies that heft because it leaves room to keep the effects coming.
If this version of Superman is to have a future — as Warner Brothers seems convinced he will, having already green-lit the sequel — I hope Snyder will dial back both the casualty count and the Krypton mythmaking and instead focus on establishing a fictional Earth that's rich enough to be worth saving.
At least an hour of Man of Steel's excessive running time is devoted to the sort of crash-and-burn, slamming-into-skyscrapers CG fight scenes that we've already seen in "The Avengers" and "Dark Knight," "Iron Man," and "Spider-Man." Man of Steel is just the same old same old.
What went wrong with Man of Steel? The early teasers promised Terrence Malick. The finished film is more Michael Bay.
While its ambition and scope pull one way, its pinched and unconvincing sense of drama pull the other.
The movie isn't dead on arrival, like Snyder's over-reverent "Watchmen." But it's pleasure-free.
Man of Steel has too many characters and too much plot, resulting in a movie that feels overstuffed and overlong.
If every generation gets the Superman it deserves, Man of Steel suggests we've earned one utterly without wit or charm.
A mostly underwhelming film, with underdeveloped characters and supercharged fight scenes that drag on forever and offer nothing new in the way of special-effects creativity.
The local multiplex is lousy with celluloid crime fighters. So what turf is left for good old Clark Kent? That's the nagging question that director Zack Snyder's Man of Steel tries — and ultimately fails — to answer.
Redundant, unnecessary and a colossal waste of talent and money, you can pretty much sum up Man of Steel in the scene in which a lady police officer watches with her mouth wide open as Superman tosses aside tanks like Tinker Toys. "What are you smiling about, captain?" asks another cop. "Nothing, sir — I just think he's hot."
Here's one more studio extravaganza brought down by numbing action and an addiction to generic digital effects.
So we get no zippy, Tony Stark-flavored one-liners. No comic-relief characters. No nonsense. But that means we also get no up, up and away, either.
Despite looking, feeling and (especially) sounding expensive – this is one of the loudest summer spectacles of recent years – Man of Steel is second-tier and third-generation Chris Nolan-flavored neo-superhero material.
The better actors — Kevin Costner, chiefly, as the adoptive Earth father — strain to supply warmth, but mostly, the minutes stretch into great expanses of blahness, much of them filled with Transformers-grade skyscraper snapping and bloodless catastrophe.
The humorless tone and relentlessly noisy (visually and sonically) aesthetics leave much to be desired.
All its faux-patriotism isn't played for satire, but instead utilized to align the film with an idyllic, unquestioned vision of goodness.
Snyder tries to up the spectacle ante with ever more explosions, crashes, thermal blasts, topological realignments, gunfire and mano-a-mano fistfights. But the result is a punishing sense of diminishing returns and a genre that has finally reached the point of mayhem-induced exhaustion.

The filmI had my doubts about Man Of Steel but after watching Superman come alive and kick some serious ass, I was happily proved wrong. The film captures the humanity of Superman's search to be human even after finding out who he really is. David S. Goyer's screenplay perfectly reflects Kal-El's struggles and challenges growing up in today's world. Zack Snyder has managed to do the impossible, he has successfully made the Man Of Steel relevant and above all human. With a strong cast including Russel Crowe as Jor-El, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, and of course Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent/Kal-El. Michael Shannon makes a truly menacing General Zod that you actually respect for his notions but understand his questionable motives. Overall, Man Of Steel is a pleasant surprise filled with plenty of little Easter eggs for DC fans to look out for. This is one summer blockbuster you won't want to miss, Zack Snyder has created another epic superhero masterpiece.… Full Review »

The biological effect of the perfluorocarbon-based artificial oxygen carrier (Oxygent) was investigated in tissue-engineered trachea (TET) construction. Media supplemented with and without 10% Oxygent were compared in all assessments. Partial tissue oxygen tension (PtO(2)) was measured with polarographic microprobes; epithelial metabolism was monitored by microdialysis inside the TET epithelium perfused with the medium underneath. Chondrocyte-DegraPol constructs were cultured for 1 month with the medium before glycosaminoglycan assessment and histology. Tissue reaction of TET epithelial scaffolds immersed with the medium was evaluated on the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane. Oxygent perfusion medium increased the TET epithelial PtO(2) (51.2 +/- 0.3 mm Hg vs. 33.4 +/- 0.3 mm Hg at 200 microm thickness; 12.5 +/- 0.1 mm Hg vs. 3.1 +/- 0.1 mm Hg at 400 microm thickness, p < 0.01) and decreased the lactate concentration (0.63 +/- 0.08 vs. 0.80 +/- 0.06 mmol/L, p < 0.05), lactate/pyruvate (1.87 +/- 0.26 vs. 3.36 +/- 10.13, p < 0.05), and lactate/glucose ratios (0.10 +/- 0.00 vs. 0.29 +/- 0.14, p < 0.05). Chondrocyte-DegraPol in Oxygent group presented lower glycosaminoglycan value (0.03 +/- 0.00 vs. 0.13 +/- 0.00, p < 0.05); histology slides showed poor acid mucopolysaccharides formation. Orthogonal polarization spectral imaging showed no difference in functional capillary density between the scaffolds cultured on chorioallantoic membranes. The foreign body reaction was similar in both groups. We conclude that Oxygent increases TET epithelial PtO(2), improves epithelial metabolism, does not impair angiogenesis, and tends to slow cartilage tissue formation.

(I have been newly introduced to the world of C# coding.) I am currently trying to work with the use of functions in the C# language. The program goal is to try to calculate the average using the
total distance traveled and the
total hours traveled and that will be multiplied by the time to get from NY city to MIAMI to get the distance from NY city to MIAMI.
How can i buld the functions(content wise) properly to give me the result(distance from NY city to MIAMI)? Should i make the function
double void and declare them public or private?
4 Textboxes:
Starting Mileage
Ending Mileage
Total Driving Time
Time from NY city to MIAMI
I have placed my functions which will be executed by a button click. A brief Idea of how I plan to use the functions:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
double v = Calculate_Velocity();
double t = Get_Time();
double d = Calculate_Distance (v,t);
Display_Results(v, t, d);

Weird heads for sale on eBay
No, this isn't about real heads for sale on eBay, although there's probably real heads for sale on there too. I haven't checked and I'm not going to, sorry.
But it's definitely odd that as I was planning to write about the replica of the most hated woman in America going for big bucks on Ebay, another (far less) infamous head also went up for sale that will probably fetch far less. One of them even has a Star Trek connection, believe it or not, making this story even more bizarre.
Now this story will require a little back history if you aren't a film buff, but you probably already know the work of director Sam Peckinpah - because two of his movies were recently remade and were released within a week of each other, Straw Dogs, and The Killer Elite.
His great masterpiece, The Wild Bunch, is also due to be remade (big shock), and don't be surprised if like Dogs and Elite it similarly sucks.
Okay, so back in 1974, Peckinpah made a drug and booze induced mess called Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, which is definitely not one of his better movies, but it does have its fans and admirers.
So a friend of mine posted on his Facebook page that the actual head of Alfredo Garcia was up for grabs, being sold by "headsup1230" out of Rowland Heights, CA with a starting bid of $1,200, which has since jumped to $1,500.
The head itself was crafted by make-up master John Chambers, who also did the incredible make-up for Planet of the Apes, and also crafted Spock's ears on Star Trek. (Not to mention, Chambers created another great head, the severed noggin' that pops out of the boat at Richard Dreyfuss in Jaws).
This head's still in good shape after all these years, but if you really wanted to piss everyone off this Halloween, the infamous Casey Anthony head has unfortunately been "sold," and at the price it went for, most of us can't afford it anyways.
The Daily Beast recently ran a story about "murderabilia," and included with the John Wayne Gacy paintings, and Ted Bundy's VW was a Casey Anthony mask, which speaking of Star Trek looks a bit Vulcan with its pointy ears. The blank stare's very unsettling too, I have to say.
This one "sold" for $999,999 by jnco6970, who reportedly beat out 104 other eBayers for it. Of course, the whole thing ended up being a scam bidding war. Plus, the mask wasn't exactly Hollywood make-up quality, and you can get other serial killer memorabilia much cheaper.
Then again, you won't be seeing Casey Anthony masks in every store this Halloween, so if you gotta have one, I guess you might be forced to fork over the big bucks.
Just be careful walking around in public with that mask on, because you don't want anyone mistaking you for her. Or maybe you want to carry her head around in a bag and unzip it at parties for laughs, ditto the Alfredo Garcia head, both great conversation pieces, no?

Week 3 notes | Winthrop Radio | Oregon State Radio | Arizona State Radio
DeKALB, Ill. - After battling against two nationally-ranked foes last weekend, then-No. 18 St. John's and No. 24 Texas Tech, Northern Illinois will head to the Coca Cola Classic in Surprise, Ariz March 1-4. the Huskies will face Winthrop, No. 11 Arizona State, St. Mary's (Calif.) and No. 24 Oregon State.LEAD OFFS- Against nationally-ranked opponents this season, NIU has outscored its opponents 10-2 in the final three innings of contests.- Northern Illinois has also tied its nationally ranked foes in the ninth inning.- The Huskies are making their second-consecutive trip to Surprise, Ariz.FOLLOW FROM HOMEFans can follow the Arizona State and Oregon State games on Gametracker on NIUHuskies.com, or can listen to radio broadcasts on each school's respective website by subscription only. The game against Winthrop will have a FREE radio broadcast at WinthropEagles.com. No media will be available for the St. Mary's game.LAST TIME OUT: TEXAS HOLD 'EMNorthern Illinois traveled to Lubbock, Texas for a contest against St. John's and three versus host Texas Tech. NIU was without the service of seven of its players as members of the team came down with a virus. However, that did not hinder the Huskies as they sent their game with the No. 18 Red Storm to extra innings but lost 11-9 on a walkoff homerun in the bottom of the 10th.Texas Tech defeated the Huskies Saturday night after the St. John's game, 8-5, and again on Sunday, 10-4. However, NIU was not leaving town without a fight against newly ranked TTU. The Red Raiders scored one run in the third inning and another in the eighth to go ahead, 2-0. In the top of the ninth inning, with no hits to their credit, NIU mustered two runs on three hits, including a game-tying RBI double by Troy White. But Texas Tech surged back with a single and walkoff triple by Tim Proudfoot to defeat NIU, 3-2.NO ONE SAID IT'D BE EASYNorthern Illinois is currently 0-7 to start the season, with two of its losses against nationally-ranked teams. In the season-opening series at Tennessee, the Volunteers were receiving votes in most of the nation's polls. Texas Tech was receiving votes in the first two contests with the Huskies, but cracked the top-25 for the first time since 2005 with their then-7-1 record Monday morning.KLONOWSKI, MANVILLE NAMED TO ALL-TOURNAMENT TEAMSophomore Alex Klonowski and senior Tony Manville were both named to the Brooks Wallace Memorial Classic All-Tournament Team for their performance over the weekend. St. John's had two selections on the team, while host school Texas Tech earned 10 honors.Klonowski, a native of Kearney, Mo., was the second basemen of the tournament, batting 5-for-19 (.263) with 4 RBI and two runs scored in four starts. Defensively, Klonowski did not commit an error while playing at shortstop, second base, right field or on the mound. Manville pitched seven innings on the mound against No. 24 Texas Tech, surrendering five hits, two walks and one earned run. He also struck out one batter in his 27 batters faced.EAGLES, DEVILS, GAELS AND BEAVERS - OH MY!Below are the series records for all of the Huskies opponents at the Coca Cola Classic. Northern Illinois is 1-13 combined against this year's field.Arizona State Oregon State NIU trails ASU, 0-8 NIU trails OSU, 0-22/3/06 L 5-3 2/19/10 L 8-0 2/26/09 L 23-72/4/06 L 9-6 2/20/10 L 10-5 3/1/09 L 2 – 1 2/5/06 L 8-3 2/20/10 L 26-12/27/09 L 6-1 3/4/11 L 10-9Saint Mary's (Calif.)

The selection committee for the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award, an honor annually given to the Division I senior baseball player who excels on and off the field, selected White as 1-of-30 candidates for the prestigious award. See back of notes for more information.THE STREAK THAT WASJunior Jamison Wells 19-game hitting streak came to end Sunday against Texas Tech as he was 0-3 on the day. It was the third-longest streak in school history, trailing Dave Reynolds (2007-10) 20-game streak in 2009 and Mike Birsa's (1992-94) 27 game streak in 1992-93.PINCH-HITTING HEROFreshman Micah McCulloch (Rochelle, Ill.) made his first appearance last Saturday against No. 18 St. John's in the top of the seventh inning for designated hitter Joe Battaglia. After walking in his first at-bat, the Rochelle Township graduate had an RBI single in the eighth inning and followed in the ninth with an RBI double that tied the Huskies with the Red Storm and sent the game to extra innings. In two starts, McCulloch finished the weekend 3-for-9 (.333) with three runs scored and two RBI. He currently leads the Huskies in slugging (.444) and on-base (.400) percentages.AFFECTED, BUT NOT SHAKENIn their trip to Lubbock, seven of the Huskies came down with a virus and were forced to sit in games one and two Saturday afternoon. However, some players went on to shine over the weekend. See for yourself.P Tony Manville - 7 IP, 5H, 1R, 1ER, 2BB, 1 SO - Feb. 27 vs. No. 24 Texas Tech3B Troy White - 2-for-8, 1 2B, 1 HR, 4 RBI - game tying double in 9th Monday nightGUNSLINGER BEHIND THE PLATESenior Brett Frantini has thrown out four runners attempting to steal bases in his six starts behind home plate in 2012. He threw out one runner in the third inning against No. 24 Texas Tech Feb. 27 and accounted for two against the Red Raiders Feb. 26. He also threw out one runner in the season-opener at Tennessee (Feb. 17).RALLY FRIES!Despite slow starts against ranked teams, Northern Illinois has outscored its opponents 10-2 in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings of ball games. The Huskies rallied back from a 9-1 deficit against No. 18 St. John's to tie the game, 9-9, in the top of the ninth to send the contest to extra innings. Against Texas Tech on Monday, NIU broke up a no-hitter with two runs in the ninth, before falling in the bottom half of the inning on a walkoff triple, 3-2.GRIND-IT-OUT TO GET-IT-DONEIn both of his starts on the mound for Northern Illinois, senior Tony Manville has been a grind-it-out to get-it-done kind of pitcher, keeping NIU within winning's distance. Against Tennessee he pitched five innings and surrendered nine hits, four runs, but only walked two. Monday versus Texas Tech, he pitched seven innings and only allowed one run on five hits and two walks and accounted for a strikeout in both games. In 2011, the Huskies outscored their opponents 148-136 with the New Lenox, Ill. native on the mound.THIEVERYNormally, stealing from another would be frowned upon. But in baseball, its ok. Junior Jamison Wells currently has four stolen bases this season and racked up 27 for the Huskies last season, tying for the third most in a single season in program history. In his career Wells has accrued 43 stolen bases, good enough for fifth all-time, in 101 career appearances. Alvin Maynard (1979-80) holds the NIU career record (71) and single-season record (41).IF YOU GIVE IT TO US, WE'LL TAKE ITA major contributor to the Huskies big comeback against St. John's, was the fact that the Red Storm committed five errors in the contest. So far in 2012, opponents have accrued 13 errors to the Huskies 12 in seven games.SCOUTING THE EAGLESWinthrop is 0-8 in 2012 and has faced two-ranked opponents in then-No. 9 Georgia Tech and then-No. 9 Georgia. In competition, WU has been outscored, 59-16, by its opponents. The Eagles are familiar with the MAC in 2012, having hosted Kent State in its season-opening tournament and dropping the contest, 11-3. Pitcher Preston Johnson has been the top-starter for the Eagles with two games under his belt and 9.1 innings pitched. He also boasts a 3.86 ERA and an 0-1 record. In relief Michael Gilroy has made five appearances and has not allowed a run this season and only one hit (.056 opp. BA). Patrick Gamblin is tied for the team-lead in hits (six) and has one double, one homerun and four RBI.SCOUTING THE SUN DEVILSThe 5-1 Sun Devils have had success this season, as evident by their No. 11 national ranking. Arizona State's only loss this season was against UC Riverside on Feb. 25, 3-1, the only time the team was held under 10 runs in 2012. Also familiar with the MAC this season, ASU opened 2012 with a three-game series with Western Michigan and outscored the Broncos, 40-2.First basemen Abe Ruiz has been on a season-opening terror, batting .500 (11-for-22) with three doubles and homeruns, along with 11 RBI at the five spot in the lineup. Brady Rodgers has yet to surrender a run in his two starts, both wins, in 13 innings pitched and has struckout 17 batters and allowed zero walks.SCOUTING THE GAELSSt. Mary's is 5-3, opening its season on a five-game winning streak and currently riding a three-game losing skid. The Gaels recently opened their conference season, playing a three-game series with fellow WCC foe BYU, taking the first game of the series and losing the next two. SMC closed February with a game against San Jose State Tuesday afternoon and fell, 5-3.Martin Agosta is 1-0 in his two starts this season and has combined for 15 innings in that span with 14 strikeouts, three walks and an ERA of 0.60. At the plate, Troy Channing is 11-for-30 this year (.367) with four doubles and six RBI. Ricky Boas and Cole Norton also have identical 10-for-32 (.313) batting statistics.SCOUTING THE BEAVERSLike their West Coast counterpart St. Mary's, Oregon State is 5-3 in 2012, and finished its last weekend in San Diego, 2-2. The 24th ranked Beavers defeated Pacific and Kansas State in the San Diego/San Diego State Tournament and suffered losses to the host schools.Danny Hayes has been the power man in the Beavs lineup, slugging .583 with six hits, two doubles, a triple, a homerun and 14 RBI. OSU's starting pitching staff is made up of grinders, surrendering 97 hits as a pitching staff, but few walks (34).MANIAC MANVILLEIn 2011 senior pitcher Tony Manville opened with a 0-1 record, losing Feb. 26 to BYU (8-5), and went on to register nine-straight wins to tie the NIU record for victories in a season. His swinning-treak was snapped Feb. 18 at Tennessee in the Huskies 7-2 loss to Tennessee in game two of the doubleheader. It was the sixth-longest streak in NCAA Division I entering 2012.WATCH OUT FOR THIS GUYOn Jan. 31 senior pitcher Kyle Glancy was named to the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Preseason Stopper of the Year Watch List, joining the nation's top-45 closers on the list. The Oak Park, Ill. native recorded 12 saves and was 1-0 in 2011. Last season he was named to NCBWA midseason watch list.LEFT SIDE - THE STRONG SIDECollegeBaseballInsider.com released its Mid-American Conference preview Feb. 8 and Northern Illinois received some high accolades, as polled by all 12 MAC coaches. Senior infielders Alex Jones and Troy White split the honors of "Best Defensive Infielder" and "Best Infield Arm." Jones was first team all-region and All-MAC at shortstop while White was second team All-MAC at third base in 2011.SMOOTH AS SILK; STRONG LIKE BULLSophomore Jeff Zimmerman first basemen also received honor from CollegeBaseballInsider.com being named amongst the top-three "Best Pure Hitters" and "Best Power Hitters" in the Mid-American Conference. Zimmerman was the MAC's Freshman of the Year in 2011 after batting .326 with 11 homeruns, 13 doubles and 47 RBI.SLOW-AND-STEADY WINS THE RACE The Huskies had a slow start to 2011, going 0-10 in its first 10 games in trips to Southern Utah, Texas Tech and Arizona State. However, Northern Illinois would persevere and finish the season 30-27 overall and 16-11 in the MAC, nearly claiming the West division championship in the process. It was the fourth 30-win season in school history, all occurring under skipper Ed Mathey.GOLDEN GLOVESNorthern Illinois carried a .966 fielding percentage in 2011, the highest-percentage since atleast 1959, the year the program began keeping the stat. The Huskies also committed a Mathey-era (2003-present) low of 74 errors. Associate Head Coach Steve Joslyn oversees the NIU defense.BLANK AS A WHITE SHEET OF PAPERThe pitching staff of Northern Illinois was a strong suit in 2011 as the Huskies recorded five shutouts during the season, the most-under Ed Mathey and the most since 1996. The centerpiece of the shutouts came April 10 when Jeremy Gonzales only allowed three hits and no walks in 2-0 win over Miami (Ohio).BO KNOWS...OK, Bo Jackson has no affiliation what so ever to Northern Illinois baseball, but, junior centerfielder Jamison Wells, like Jackson was for Auburn, is a multi-sport for NIU. Wells, a native of Combined Locks, Wis., doubles (no pun intended by the 16 he amassed last season) as a wide reciever for the Huskies football team. He made 14 receptions for 112 yards and appeared in 13 games for the Mid-American Conference and GoDaddy.com Bowl Champions.BROOKS WALLACE HOPEFUL... AGAINSenior Alex Jones had a whale of junior season in 2011, leading Northern Illinois in batting average (.352), hits (82), total bases (118) and RBI (47). For his great season, Jones was named a quarterfinalist for the Brooks Wallace Shortstop of the Year Award on May 11. Northern Illinois and the Kansas City, Kan. native are again hoping he recieves the honor for a second-straight season.
SELFLESS BASEBALLHenry Ford once said "If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself." Northern Illinois accounted for 40 sacrifice bunts last season, the fourth-most in program history, and 21 sacrifice flies during the 2011 season.
NEXT UPNorthern Illinois will follow the Coca Cola Classic with a trip Clarkesville, Tenn., for games against Austin Peay, Arkansas State and Dayton.

Equation 7.2 shows that blocking energy depends on volume. This means that relaxation time could change from very short to very long by increasing the size of the grain (see Figure 7.11). Chemical changes that form ferromagnetic minerals below their blocking temperatures which then grow in a magnetizing field result in acquisition of a chemical remanent magnetization or Chemical reactions involving ferromagnetic minerals include a) alteration of a pre-existing mineral (possibly also ferromagnetic) to a ferromagnetic mineral CRM. alteration chemical remanence aCRM or b) precipitation of a ferromagnetic mineral from solution. This section outlines a model of CRM acquisition that explains the basic attributes of this type of grain-growth CRM (gCRM).
Magnetic mineralogy can change after a rock is formed in response to changing chemical environments. Red beds (see Figure 7.12a), a dominant sedimentary facies in earlier times, are red because pigmentary hematite grew at some point after deposition. Hematite is a magnetic phase and the magnetic remanence it carries when grown at low temperatures is an example of gCRM.
Magnetite is an example of a magnetic phase which is generally out of chemical equilibrium in many environments on the Earth's surface. It tends to oxidize to another magnetic phase (maghemite) during weathering. As it changes state, the iron oxide may change its magnetic moment, acquiring an aCRM.
The relationship of the new born CRM to the ambient magnetic field can be complicated. It may be largely controlled by the prior magnetic phase whence it came, it may be strongly influenced by the external magnetic field, or it may be some combination of these factors. We will begin with the simplest form of CRM – the gCRM.
Inspection of Equation 7.2 for relaxation time reveals that it is a strong function of grain volume. A similar theoretical framework can be built for remanence acquired by grains growing in a magnetic field as for those cooling in a magnetic field. As a starting point for our treatment, consider a non-magnetic porous matrix, say a sandstone. As ground water percolates through the sandstone, it begins to precipitate tiny grains of a magnetic mineral (Figure 7.12c). Each crystal is completely isolated from its neighbors. For very small grains, the thermal energy dominates the system and they are superparamagnetic. When volume becomes sufficient for magnetic anisotropy energy to overcome the thermal energy, the grain moment is blocked and can remain out of equilibrium with the magnetic field for geologically significant time periods. Keeping temperature constant, there is a critical blocking volume vb below which a grain maintains equilibrium with the applied field and above which it does not. We can find this blocking volume by solving for v in the Néel equation:
The magnetization acquired during grain growth is controlled by the alignment of grain moments at the time that they grow through the blocking volume. Based on these principles, CRM should behave very similarly to TRM.
There have been a few experiments carried out with an eye to testing the grain growth CRM model and although the theory predicts the zeroth order results quite well (that a simple CRM parallels the field and is proportional to it in intensity), the details are not well explained, primarily because the magnetic field affects the growth of magnetic crystals and the results are not exactly analogous to TRM conditions (see e.g. Stokking and Tauxe, 1990a.) Moreover, gCRMs acquired in changing fields can be much more complicated than a simple single generation, single field gCRM (Stokking and Tauxe, 1990b).
Alteration CRM can also be much more complicated than simple gCRM in a single field. Suffice it to say that the reliability of CRM for recording the external field must be verified (as with any magnetic remenance) with geological field tests and other techniques as described in future chapters.

The Beer Hunter Cuts Menu Items to Avoid Price Hikes
The Beer Hunter puts its customers first, even when its employees' wages are forcibly raised,...
Minimum wage has been raised and in order to compensate, The Beer Hunter is looking internally for solutions that won't affect its customers and what they pay for Beer Hunter favorites.
Acknowledging that some fan favorite menu items were underperformers or too costly to produce in today's economy, The Beer Hunter has chosen to shave back the size of their menu. The result: minimized waste, which could offset the need for a menu-wide price increase.
It also means The Beer Hunter can focus its culinary efforts on the more concise list of remaining menu items. With less menu items, The Beer Hunter can perfect the customer favorites.
Pub style appetizers and filling entrees for everyone are still very much the focus of The Beer Hunter menu.
Taking to heart the suggestions of their fans, The Beer Hunter has also modified many of their existing items to make way for healthier preparations.
For example, their Fish and Chips are fried from hand breaded Mahi Mahi. Customers wishing to avoid fried food are now able to request their fish grilled, or may enjoy the grilled Mahi Mahi on one of the two new lighter options: Grilled Mahi Tacos and the Mahi Mahi Salad.
These moderately priced options come along with an extensive list of beers and mixed drinks.
As always, The Beer Hunter's draft and bottled beer options will always keep you coming back for more.
The Beer Hunter even features its Hall of Foam. If you travel "around the world in 75 beers," you can get your name engraved on a plaque around the bar area at The Beer Hunter.
If The Beer Hunter's menu, beer choices or 30 plus high definition TV screens featuring all of the latest sports aren't enough reason to take a trip to the sports pub, the restaurant also hosts special events almost every month.
The Beer Hunter will also soon host its fourth anniversary party. To kick it off, they will be having a night of adult entertainment with Dueling Pianos, on June 19 at 8 p.m.
Drink and feast at The Beer Hunter while enjoying a night of comedic musical performances from dueling pianists playing all of your favorite tunes.
Then, on June 20 and 21, from 3 to 7 p.m., the party will cont

Fans of "Sons of Anarchy" have been extremely loyal to the show and it's actors, therefore, when Tommy Flanigan shared on his Facebook page that there was going to be a "Sons of Anarchy" video game on Feb. 11, they were shocked and elated.
So far, Sutter claims that he cant say much of the details, likely because there aren't many details hammered out yet, as to what the game will be about, fans are still excited. There has been a lot of speculation all over as to what the game might look like, who would do voices, and everything out, but the most popular choice has been that people want to see a "Sons of Anarchy" Grand Theft Auto.
The concern that many fans have voiced about the game is that they feel like they would be limited because the game could only be as long as the show. So, unlike Grand Theft Auto that could have many variations and games, they wouldn't be able to get more than seven games because that's all the show has.
There is still a lot left in the air about the game, but the fact that a "Sons of Anarchy" game is going to be a reality is pretty exciting nonetheless.

Los Angeles hiphop artist/producer Kidd Upstairs dropped his latest single "Descent" last week featuring fellow Top Floor Music Group artist, XO.
"Descent" is a back-and-forth, tit-for-tat lyrical sprint. These artists pass the baton back and forth on this one quite a bit-- upping the ante on lyricism each time it is passed throughout this 4-minute track.
"Descent" is the newest drop by Kidd ahead of his highly-anticipated release KVSHMIR II. Although there isn't a scheduled release date for this album just yet, there is much anticipation among those that know Kidd, or are familiar with his widely-acclaimed release KVSHMIR.
The latest release by the Los Angeles based emcee featuring fellow Top Floor Music running-mate X.O., plays like a sparring match between two veteran boxers. The two throw zinging jabs and vicious hooks in the forms of bars and potently-laced quips that maintain their sting through the duration of the song.
The Kidd Upstairs' produced track blends spacey tones spelled by an ominous melody, which creates the perfect launchpad for the two emcees to showcase their refined wits. This lyrical-excursion explores the artists' respective descents into a colorful spectrum of topics that reads like a creative kaleidoscope.
The artists play well off each other by cleverly finishing each other's sentences-- also placing exclamation points on each other's verses. Pulling off something like this (mixing and matching verses/styles) required both artists to match levels of lyricism, while blending their respective styles; a feat that both 25-year-old emcees pulled off seamlessly.
Kidd's latest concoction is more proof that the follow up looks to trump the previous work with even more refined lyricism and production. Refreshingly, original content with a viral appeal.
Listen to 'Descent' by Kidd Upstairs featuring X.O. on Soundcloud.

The problem with purchasing great new spring items before the snow has melted is that it wears on our patience. We adore these Dougray Cutout Slip-On Sneakers ($100) from Jeffrey Campbell, but now that we've got 'em, they've gotta stay in their box until the weather warms and the sidewalks dry. We guess we'll just have to busy ourselves with searching for fun and colorful socks to wear when we finally get to take these sneaks for a test drive.

According to AP, Poet and Author, Dr. Maya Angelou (MY'-ah ANJ'-eh-loh), has died at 86 of an undisclosed illness on Wednesday at her home in North Carolina. Maya Angelou was an African American shero who inspired all people. She rose from poverty, segregation and violence to become an iconic force on stage, screen and the printed page. Wake Forest University announced Angelou's death in a news release Wednesday.
She gained acclaim for her first book, her autobiography "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," making her one of the first African-American women to write a best-seller. In 1998, she directed the film "Down in the Delta" about a drug-wrecked woman who returns to the home of her ancestors in the Mississippi Delta.
In 1993 she was the poet chosen to read at President Bill Clinton's first inauguration. She wrote and read an original composition, "On the Pulse of Morning," which became a million-seller.
Angelou lived in North Carolina in an 18-room house and taught American Studies at Wake Forest University. She was also a member of the board of trustees for Bennett College, a private school for black women in Greensboro. Angelou hosted a weekly satellite radio show for XM's "Oprah & Friends" channel.
She lived to see Barack Obama's inauguration and she was overjoyed. She told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette she would be watching it on television "somewhere between crying and praying and being grateful and laughing when I see faces I know."
She continued to be an active speaker, giving commencement speeches and addressed academic and corporate events across the country. Angelou received dozens of honorary degrees, and several elementary schools were named for her. As she approached her 80th birthday, she decided to study at the Missouri-based Unity Church, which advocates healing through prayer.
We are thankful for the work Dr. Angelou has done, and the mark she has made in our lives, her work will live on for generations to come.
The poem Maya Angelou is most famous for:
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
I know why the caged bird sings, ah me,
When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,
When he beats his bars and would be free;
It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a prayer that he sends from his heart's deep core,
But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings –
I know why the caged bird sings.
R.I.P. Maya Angelou
