Armed with a Hasselblad and some Polaroid 665 film, I set out one day to experiment capturing black and white details of Miami Beach's famous architecture. From 1930s art deco to 1950s modern, Collins Avenue is actually a museum of America's various styles of resort architecture.
Today, designers like Philippe Starck and Marcel Wanders continue to morph Miami into new areas of the same modernist movement that began 90 years ago.
Hope you enjoy these images and thank you for your interest in my work.

Whether you're gearing up for your slim-down summer or you just want a refreshing healthy summer snack there are a lot of healthy options that are both cost effective and super delicious without packing on the calories. Check out these ideas for pleasing your palate:
Water with cucumber slices
Slice up some cucumber and stick it in a water bottle or a glass of water, if you want you can make a pitcher by slicing up a cucumber and adding to 6 cups of water. Refrigerate and drink within 2 days for best taste. You can also spruce up your water with different fruits, try some orange, lemon or lime slices. You can also add the fruit with the cucumbers, there are lots of options for you to experiment to your liking.
Juice cubes
Freeze your favorite 100% fruit juice in an ice cube tray. Each cube is about an ounce so you can add 1-3 cubes into a glass of plain seltzer for a more naturally-flavored refreshing spritzer, in plain water or ice tea for an extra flavor to these beverages.
Fruit, fruit, fruit
Watermelon, peaches, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, apples, melon, pineapple, etc... You choose! Eat them as-is or make them into a kebob or salad. Watermelon will help you stay hydrated. Kiwi has some anti-oxidants with benefits to your health and are also a source of fiber and vitamin C.
Grilled Peaches
Make yourself a fruit dessert, grill some halved peaches then top with some vanilla frozen yogurt and top with cinnamon or sprinkle some cinnamon on your favorite apple and get a small taste of apple pie while staying healthy.
Homemade sorbet
Freeze some juice or water and add fresh fruit to make a low-calorie alternative to regular ice cream. A real easy way to have a delectable dairy-free snack.

Most people will be familiar with rye flour as it is found in rye crackers. Ryvita, for example, have cornered themselves a big slice of the UK market, pitching their product as a slimming food. And most countries have a similar product available on supermarket shelves.
But there's much more to rye than as an ingredient for weight-loss diets. It can be a wholesome, nutritious and attractive part of our meals. Rye breads are delicious and quite easy to make and there are a good many other uses for this versatile ingredient.
It is also a good food to consider from a green living perspective, especially if you are close to the major growing regions, because it is easier to grow than wheat in some climates and therefore requires fewer inputs.
This page gives some nutritional information on rye and looks at its history and cultivation.
Rye is a grass (Secale cereale) which is quite closely related to wheat and barley. It grows wild in Turkey and was largely unknown in most of Europe until after the Roman era.
"a very poor food (which) only serves to avert starvation".
Rye was a popular grain with the Saxons and Vikings. Early methods included sowing both wheat and rye together. Depending upon the weather, one crop would dominate. The mixed flour was known as "maslin" flour.
Russia and Poland remain the world's largest rye grain producers. Organic rye is now being grown in many places, including Finland, Lithuania and North Dakota, USA (where it is used to make vodka).
Germany is noted for its diverse breads and bread-making techniques. Rye bread is one of their favourites (schwarzbrot). In Denmark, too, rye bread (rugbrød) holds an especially esteemed position.
As a flour it has far less gluten than wheat but it has other properties which make it a desirable bread ingredient. Most rye breads are made from a mixture of wheat flour and rye flour, as pure rye bread can be rather heavy and chewy.
It is also difficult to get a good texture with pure rye bread because of the low gluten content. Rye flour is especially well suited to use with a sourdough starter; some of the very best breads are made this way.
There is a very easy recipe for making rye bread here.
Rye is packed with good nutrition. It contains high levels of proteins and fibre. It contains good amounts of iron, calcium and zinc and a whole slew of B vitamins. There's also vitamin E aplenty. Unfortunately by the time it has been refined to "light rye" and mixed with wheat flour, the resultant bread may not hold its own against wheat wholemeal bread. The best rye breads for nutritional value are made from dark rye.
Rye contains a lot of soluble fibre which slows down the release of carbohydrates and sugars, so that you feel satisfied for longer after eating it compared to wheat bread. The sugars in rye are largely "fructans" - a type of fructose, which accounts for the slightly sweet taste. Fructans allow this plant to thrive in relatively cool conditions.
Many of the benefits of eating rye come from the fact that it ferments in the gut to produce valuable nutrients such as short-chain fatty acids and arabinoxylan. Short-chain fatty acids help the immune system by promoting lymphocyte production and they also lower cholesterol production and stabilise blood sugar levels. Arabinoxylan is thought to act much like beta-glucan from oats. Beta-glucans are responsible for some of the heart-healthy attributes of oats and have a whole bundle of health benefits credited to them.
Rye flour can be used in a host of products. Rye bread needs no introduction to most people but it's perhaps worth noting that there are many different types of rye bread, from traditional Jewish rye bread with caraway seed flavouring, to the tasty black bread of Russia and Poland.
Rye flour can be used for pancakes, blinnies, muffins and drop scones. Use it just as you would use wheat flour - or mix it 50:50 with wheat flour for a lighter result.
Rye is also making a bit of a come back - as beer! Small breweries and home brewers are brewing up delicious new beers using rye as the principal grain ingredient.

Every USD instructor is encouraged to develop a plan to continue course instruction in case of a university closure during an emergency, natural disaster or widespread illness. This plan will include the use of Blackboard to post course materials, create assignment submission areas, and more.
A Blackboard Temporary Emergency Shell is created for every course section at USD. Once the administration notifies ITS of a campus closure, these courses will be activated and available to faculty and students who log in with their mySanDiego credentials at http://ole.sandiego.edu.
These temporary shells are activated for emergency purposes to faculty who have not previously activated a course on Olé or who have not activated shells for current course(s).
Faculty who already have current course(s) in Blackboard will continue using those course shells.
A template has been applied to the pre-made, temporary shells. This template includes guided access to the following features:
- Announcements
- File upload
- Discussion Board
- Assignments
- Tests
- Grade Center (contains course roster)
- Help for Instructors
- Help for Students
Academic Technology Services urges you to take proactive steps by attending a Blackboard Essentials training to learn the basics of Blackboard and how to take advantage of Blackboard's powerful features well in advance of an emergency. Keep in mind that you may create and design your course and upload material and selectively make it available to your students using the Adaptive Release tool.

Summer is the best time to try out new hairstyles. From highlights to drastic pixies, there are plenty of ways to change up your look for the season. So, instead of just going for your usual trim, why not try something new this season? Get the perfect summer haircut on any budget by following these 3 easy steps:
1. Figure out your face shape
One of the worst offenses when getting a haircut is not knowing your face shape. Think of your hair as a frame for the beautiful Monet that is your face. You wouldn't put a square painting in an oval frame, right? So, why do that with your hair?
The best way to figure out your face shape is to pull back your hair, look in the mirror, and outline your face with lipstick on the mirror. Then, just step back and, voila! Your face shape revealed. You can even take this short face shape quiz if you're not into drawing on mirrors.
2. Consult with your stylist
Another common mistake with haircuts is choosing one based on a celebrity's hair. While you may really want the Kloss Chop or the JLaw Pixie, it may not be best for your face shape, hair type or budget.
You can feel like a celebrity by consulting with your stylist about what cut best suits you and your type of hair. When booking your appointment, ask for an additional 10-15 minute time allotment for a consultation. Bring pictures of what you would like, but really listen to your stylist. He or she deals with countless types of hair on a regular basis and will be sure to help you figure out which look is best for you.
3. Have an open mind
Sometimes what your stylist comes up with isn't exactly what you had in mind. While you certainly need to be happy with your hair, try to be open to change.
If you've never had short hair or get anxiety about cutting your hair, opt for a longer bob, but throw in some cute bangs or long layers. If you're a daredevil and don't care about cutting your hair, why not try something a little shorter? If you do opt for something drastic, be sure to donate your hair. Locks of Love and Pantene are great options that most salons already partner with, which means no work for you!
Keeping these tips in mind, you'll be sure to get a cut that you love. And remember: if you're ever unhappy with a cut, go back to the salon! Stylists are always more than willing to help you get exactly what you came in looking for. Most importantly, have fun with your new look!

One of the most well-known composers across history, Ludwig van Beethoven led an interesting career that bridged the classical and romantic musical eras. This Saturday, the Fourth movement from one of his most recognizable symphonies (affectionately known as the "Choral" Symphony) will be performed as the Louisiana Philharmonic's title piece.
Conducting the evening is LPO's musical director, Carlos Miguel Prieto. Joining the orchestra for Beethoven's famous "Ode To Joy" are mezzo-soprano Margaret Lattimore and the Symphony Chorus of New Orleans.
The concert event will also include Bruckner's Psalm 150, and Brahms' Rhapsody for Alto, Male, Chorus, and Orchestra. Curtains rise at 7:30pm on Saturday, May 24, at the Mahalia Jackson Theatre. For ticket information, visit LPO's website.
This is the final performance in LPO's Classics series, and their last concert scheduled for the 2013-14 season.

I understand that there are lag effects, but considering the graph starts in Jan 09, all we see is what has happened under Obama.

I see your point, but remember that the first stimulus came at the end of Bush's term; this might partially explain that flukey timing.Darrel wrote:The bikini chart, happening to bounce right as power turned over to Obama is of course, a fluke.
This is why I'd like to see the data from before 2009 presented, otherwise the dumb masses will wrongly interpret the graph as an Obama ditch.Darrel wrote:However, the mess that Bush initiated in the years preceding came to fruition in late 2008, resulting in the 750,000k monthly job loss at the very end of his term, and then the ditch above which was enjoyed the following year.

DNA deliberating
For readers who value rational thought over dreams and wishes, a friend recently sent this: "Mike: All living things on earth – including microbes, grass, elephants, blue whales and humans – reproduce using DNA. Although the creatures differ widely, the code that controls many of their characteristics is very stable and has served to maintain the distinction between each of them through the ages." So, he continues, if creatures evolve, their DNA must switch between kinds to make an entirely different DNA strain to support a new living thing altogether. "Is there any evidence anywhere to show that's happened, according to DNA? I'm not aware of it, are you?" Anyone out there aware of DNA shape-shifting from an amoeba into an elephant or a person?
We found that an estimated 28.6 million Americans will be eligible for the tax credits in 2014, and that the total value of the tax credits that year will be $110.1 billion. The new tax credits will provide much-needed assistance to insured individuals and families who struggle harder each year to pay rising premiums, as well as to uninsured individuals and families who need help purchasing coverage that otherwise would be completely out of reach financially. Most of the families who will be eligible for the tax credits will be employed, many for small businesses, and will have incomes between two and four times poverty (between $44,100 and $88,200 for a family of four based on 2010 poverty guidelines).

text: Im not the biggest fan of most of the tv shows that MTV puts in the air. The reason is quite simples – their target is teenagers and, well, i must admid that im 16 anymore but thats another topic. Today i watched one that was pretty cool … well at least the concept – it's called "The Buried Life" and the main question of this show answers is"What do you want to do before you die?". This is quite an interesting topic – it reminded me of a movie called "The Bucket List" that i saw a while ago and its quite an amazing one. Anyway i can remember quite a few things that i'd like to do before i die but i never wrote them down maybe i should do that … the result might surprise me. What about you, do you have any special wishes? Do you have any topics on your bucket list?

Awarded Grant to Prevent Violence and Violence-Related Injury
The Period of PURPLE Crying: Keeping Babies Safe in North Carolina
FOA Number: CE07-004: Abusive Head Trauma (AHT) Prevention
Project Period: 09/30/2007 - 09/29/2012
Application/Grant Number: CE001275
Principal Investigator: Desmond K. Runyan, M.P.H.
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Room 360, Wing C
Chapel Hill, NC 27599-7240
Phone: (919)962-1136
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Our 2000-01 North Carolina (NC) study revealed serious abusive head trauma (AHT) among children under 2 years old at a rate of 17.0/100,000 children per year. Twenty-six percent died. A second study revealed that 2.6% of NC and SC parents admit shaking children < 2 for discipline. Other work has revealed the central role of infant crying in triggering shaking by caregivers. A multi-agency Leadership Committee in NC has developed a plan to implement and evaluate an AHT prevention program designed to prepare parents and other caregivers to deal with infant crying. The intervention will educate parents about normal infant crying patterns, how to respond to crying, and the dangers of shaking. We propose to disseminate "The Period of PURPLE Crying" curricula developed by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome in a manner designed to reach every new parent three times. Building upon randomized controlled studies in Seattle and Vancouver, we will examine the effectiveness of this approach in NC over five years (~125,000 births / year). We anticipate reducing the numbers of children hospitalized or dying from AHT by at least 50%. The Leadership Committee plans to deliver this curriculum three ways. One, nurses will educate the parents of every newborn including discussion, a video, and a booklet about infant crying in the newborn nursery at all 86 hospitals/birthing centers in NC. Two, county health departments, pediatricians, and family physicians, will provide a second dose of the intervention in prenatal classes and/or at 2-week well-child checks. Third, the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome and the UNC School of Journalism and Mass Communications will develop a media campaign to be delivered statewide addressing social norms about shaking and reinforcing program messages directly and through family and friends To evaluate these efforts, we propose six strategies: 1) active surveillance with all 11 PICU's and the Medical Examiner's Office (OCME) to measure the incidence of AHT in North Carolina and look for a change in ratio of intentional and unintentional traumatic brain injury in young children from our earlier study; 2) two anonymous surveys of parents to see if the rate of shaking parents reported in the earlier survey is declining from our prior study; 3) a time series analysis using hospital, OCME, and KID national hospital discharge records to examine the trends in AHT cases from 1999-2011, before and during the program; 4) process evaluation of the delivery of the messages through a survey of nurseries to measure intervention fidelity and a random-digit-dial phone survey of new parents to assess program reach ; 5) a nested case-control study of AHT cases, compared to other hospitalized brain injured children under age 2 to examine receipt of intervention, in context of family composition, and other family stressors and 6) an economic analysis to examine program costs and benefits. Anticipated support from two foundations will enable this statewide effort to be a rigorous evaluation of program delivery, effectiveness, costs, and benefits.

Do admins get to meet a lot of new people on a daily basis at work? And what kind of people domain do they interact with?
Secondly, I've had this myth for a long time that unlike programmers, Network/System/Security Admins get locked-up in a den and juiced up late nights and early mornings. Most of the time they had to slip out of work without being noticed. How true and often does this happen for you?
I understand there is no specific answer to this question as it depends on the type of working organization. But just looking out for answers from your experience.
Thank you so much for talking time to voice-out your experience :) Very useful!
Clarification: I've had the question posted on to stackoverflow and they closed it. So I posted it here.
My people interaction and working hours: I'm a full-time CS student, Research Assistant, a Server Admin managing ESXi and Physical servers and soon will be hunting for a full-time Systems Admin position. My interaction is limited to the other Server Admin and our Senior Admin. Work hours were bad when we had to do bare metal install or any serious upgrades. Now its more of a 20hrs 10am to 2pm. A big smiley face overall <:D

BURLINGAME—National Education Association President-elect Lily Eskelsen García along with California Teachers Association President Dean E. Vogel unveiled Thursday at Southern and Northern California news conferences, the Degrees Not Debt program designed to reduce student loan debt through loan forgiveness programs, lower-repayment plans and reinvesting in higher education so college is affordable for all. Additionally, California's educators announced plans for a statewide week of action this October aimed at educating students about options available to alleviate the burdensome student loans and exorbitant rates.
"Twenty years ago, the average college students were graduating with $9,450 in debt. I think when I graduated in 1990, I had much less than that," said Eskelsen Garcia. "Today the average university student will graduate with more than $30,000 in debt. There are students that graduate with hundreds of thousands of dollars in student debt."
Student loan debt exceeds $1.2 trillion and has surpassed credit card debt nationwide as college costs skyrocket and federal student aid lags. Students are forced to borrow staggering amounts of money to pay for higher education. The average student owes $35,000, but some report owing ten times as much. At these levels student debt isn't just a burden, it's a barrier to millions of middle-class Americans seeking college degrees and career preparation.
"It's not right when banks are making more from a college education that students are. As educators, we care about our students and their futures" said Vogel. "We will not sit by and watch as fear of paying for a higher education gets in the way of pursing one."
Both NEA and CTA are calling for:
We ask all Californians to join us in this effort to ensure college affordability. Start today by joining the Degrees Not Debt campaign and signing the online pledge at www.NEA.org/degreesnotdebt.
The 325,000-member CTA is affiliated with the nearly 3 million-member National Education Association

I have a question on this online website I'm trying to learn calculus on. What I am really confused about the Intermediate Value Theorem is: it says I should set it to 0 but I'm totally lost at the steps used to approach and take this? Perhaps someone can guide me in the right direction.
Do I plug in 1 and 0 for $x$ and then compare it?
Use the Intermediate Value Theorem to show that there is a solution to the equation $e^{-x^2} = x$ in the interval (0, 1).

Dr. Estela Apolinar, Cardiologist for Gilbert Hospital and Premier Cardiology, discusses Coronary Artery Disease
I wanted to express my appreciation for the free TOPS physicals that you provide annually in the Gilbert, AZ area. My two sons, who attend Chandler Preparatory Academy, have benefitted from this program the last two years. It is a great relief to me to know that they have been thoroughly screened prior to their participation in football. I'm a single mom and you have certainly eased my financial burden in providing this benefit each year.
Your staff was entirely professional and friendly and the process was well organized and seamless. Thank you again for this great gift!
For Information, contact:
David Wanger, CEO
(480) 840-3715
The wait is almost over! On Saturday, February 18th Florence Hospital at Anthem hosted an open house and it was successful in every way imaginable! Attendance was last counted at 2,000+ and the supporters just kept coming! Interested community members began arriving almost two hours early to fill out applications, ask for tours, see the helipad and inquire as to the ability to pre-register for services they anticipate needing in the future. As the "guests" walked thru the doors they were personally greeted by Dr. Tim Johns, Founder and Vice President of Medical Affairs, with a grin on his face that could be seen for miles! Dr. Johns said, "I didn't think we would get many people on a Saturday afternoon, but the community proved me wrong as they kept lining up to see the hospital!" As they walked down the sidewalk they were offered free samples of cake (donated by a local baker), cupcakes (made by Gabby from Cup Your Cake) and homemade chocolate chip cookies personally baked by Dr. Johns and his daughter Katelyn. The hospital had several staff members, including CEO Mr. David Wanger, working this day to answer questions, lead tours, hand out gifts and help in any way possible. On site for the open house were Air Methods (air ambulance service), San Tan and Rural Metro Fire Departments, Department of Corrections, Pinal County Sherriff, Town dignitaries and many, many more!
The hospital anticipates opening the beginning of March and expects to see more than 25,000 patients in its first year of operations. The hospital will initially open with services that include Emergency, Inpatient/ICU, Correctional unit, OR/PACU, MRI, CT, X-ray, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound and a medical staff roster of more than 105 physicians representing more than sixteen specialties.
Florence Hospital at Anthem is a privately owned hospital and sister facility to Gilbert Hospital, both of which are anticipated to be Visionary Health Hospitals. Wanger said, "The Town of Florence wanted a new hospital for the past twelve years and because we keep our promises, they are now getting one." To date, the hospital has hired approximately 300 new employees and the excitement is amazing. The care will far surpass everyone's expectations as they also embrace the "Door to Doc in 31 Minutes" TM service moniker.
Gilbert Hospital hosted the 5th Annual TOPS (Team of Physicians for Students) event on April 28, 2012 at Williams Field High School, part of the Higley Unified School District.
During this event (run exclusively through volunteers), 1,460 student athletes were provided free, extensive physicals that included, in addition to an overall exam, an EKG and a Cardiac Ultrasound (if warranted). More than 225 volunteers made the event possible.
A total of 10 students weren't cleared.
East Valley high schools and schools from as far away as Miami and Maricopa bused kids in for the event.
These screenings fulfill the Arizona Interscholastic Association physical examination requirement for all high school student athletes.
Among the organizations contributing to the event were: Higley Unified School District; Premier Cardiovascular Consultants; Phoenix Children's Hospital East Valley Specialty Clinic; AirMethods; Alpha Graphics; Midwestern University; Grand Canyon University; and Arizona State University.
2013 TOPS date has yet to be determined

The excesses of the fashion world have often been at odds with the philosophy of restraint and reuse that characterizes the sustainability movement. And yet, an outcropping of wizened contemporary designers have decided to integrate recycling principles into their companies for both ethical and ecological reasons. The desire to use something that already exists in order to create something entirely new harkens back to the arte povera of the '60s—albeit sans the movement's initial radicalism—and even the "found object" ethos of WWI Dadaism, but this latest approach particularly benefits from decades of aesthetic refinement and effective commercial positioning.
There's something wonderful about creating second chances for what others might carelessly consider throwaway items, as designer Christopher Raeburn discovered through his use of reclaimed fabrics of his eponymous two-year-old label. "My use of re-appropriated fabrics has been something of a happy accident," he explains. "I'd always collected and loved military fabrics—generally you could never buy them on a roll as they are vintage or redundant—so the natural step was to start re-using the original garments." Raeburn, who has used materials from German, Dutch and Swedish armed forces, Eurostar uniforms, as well as parachutes from hot air balloons, mines a sportswear vein that's both aesthetically sound and ecologically minded. Since the pieces come from re-appropriated materials, they are, by default, limited editions. And according to the laws of luxury, their scarcity makes them even more desirable. So small wonder that despite the label's neophyte status, it's already in the hallowed retail walls of Barneys New York.
Dutch-born London-based designer Michael Van Der Ham, meanwhile, has taken the rag pile upmarket by craftily turning a hodgepodge of seemingly incompatible found vintage materials into avant-garde designs that are colorfully and texturally provocative. Brooklyn-based Bodkin, which started up in 2008 and has since won the Ecco Domani Sustainable Design Award, also uses post-consumer recycled polyester, recycled wool and salvaged textiles for its collections, but to a completely different effect. Where Van Der Ham explicitly shows the patchwork of his different sources, Bodkin has entirely masked the recycled feel. The line's slouchy trousers, ruched dresses, oversized sweaters and belted coats in muted colors resemble garments created from scratch, but have sound ethical practices behind them.
In the realm of accessories, Italian-born, New York-based artist / designer Stefania Pia hunts around flea markets and "forgotten" stores in New York for little charms. The bits and bobs form the basis of her newly created eponymous jewelry line range from old keys to repurposed chains to curious doo-dads that she suspends from scraps of vintage textiles such as Japanese raw silk. She paints one side of her found trinkets in bright neon colors, leaving the other side in its natural state so as not to overshadow the object's sense of history. "I give [the found objects] a new life, but always preserve this identity they had in their past", Pia explains. "I like this rich life where memories are hanging on the wall, on the ceiling. It is a tribute to my roots…picking out treasures that are lost."

The Delaware Division of Public Health is advising Delawareans of a voluntary recall of refrigerated ready-to-eat products manufactured by Reser's Fine Foods, Inc. that may be contaminated with the bacteria Listeria monocytogenes.
Four school districts throughout the state, including the Capital School District and Smyrna School District, have received recalled products, however none of the districts are reporting illness associated with the recall at this time, health officials said Monday.
Dover High School is believed to be the only Capital facility to receive the product. All impacted products are in the process of being disposed of or are being returned to the distributor, health officials said.
Beebe Medical Center, based in Sussex County, also received the recalled product.
DPH staff is working with the FDA and local partners, including school food service personnel, to determine if any additional recalled product was shipped to Delaware.
The recalled product is sold in retail and food service establishments and distributed nationwide. The packages are marked with a Use-by-Date or Best By Date and followed by a plant identifier code of 20. Products affected by this recall are listed here.
According to officials with the Division of Public Health, there are no illnesses associated with these products in Delaware or elsewhere in the U.S.
Out of an abundance of caution, DPH is encouraging consumers to check their refrigerators and freezers for these products, and to discard or return them to the store where they were purchased, stated a press release put out by the Division of Public Health on Monday evening.
Listeria is an organism that can cause serious and sometime fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Healthy people may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant woman.
If you or a member of your family has consumed (or believe that you have consumed one of the recalled products) and are experiencing any of the above symptoms, seek medical attention.
For further information on Listeria monocytogenes, visit the DPH website here.
For questions regarding the recalled products, contact Reser's Consumer Hotline at (888) 257-7913. For any questions regarding illness, contact your healthcare provider. For medical providers to report suspected cases of listeriosis associated with consumption of the recalled food, call the DPH Office of Infectious Disease Epidemiology at (800) 295-5156.

According to a Thursday press release by Manchester Police, a man lit a Roman candle that caused a police cruiser to be struck by fiery projectiles from the firework on Elm Street on Tuesday, Dec. 31, 2013. The man, identified by witnesses was arrested.
Police said Aric Pettis, 25, of Bennington, NH was charged with Reckless Conduct following the investigation into the incident.
The release stated that at approximately 9:15 p.m. Officer Rob Megowen was traveling in a marked police cruiser on Elm Street, in the area of Lowell Street, when a small sparking ball of fire struck the hood and windshield of his cruiser. Similar sparks of flames also flew into two separate groups of pedestrians on Elm Street.
Officer Megowen believed the source of the ball of flames was a Roman candle that apparently had been discharged in front of McGarvey's Pub, at 1097 Elm Street. Officer Megowen detained several people in front of the pub and recovered a discharged Roman candle from the ground next to a planter.
Witness accounts led to the identification of Aric Pettis as the person who lit the firework. Reportedly Pettis had placed the Roman candle in a planter in front of McGarvey's and lit it, causing the fire balls to strike the cruiser and endanger the pedestrians in the area. Pettis was placed under arrest.

Understanding complex biomaterials on a fundamental physical basis is an integral challenge of future biophysical research. This challenge can be addressed by the concerted application of new experimental tools of soft condensed matter physics to living cells and bio-mimetic model systems.
In our group we concentrate on the one hand on developing new physical tools to address the underlying complexity and mechanisms and on the other hand on developing new biomaterials for applications ranging from biomedicine to functional food.
Topology and Dynamics of Active Nematic Vesicles
We have implemented a minimalistic model of of a shape-changing cell that moves on its own. Basically our synthetic biology approach combines only a few molecular ingredients: microtubule polymers and kinesin motors are encapsulated into a vesicle by a lipid bilayer. We observe a rich variety of morphologies that can be explained by geometrical and topological effects on the nematic microtubule cortex.

As Billi said, next month's genre and previous selections are in the first post of this thread (and yep, we started not that long ago really, mid-2011). I can see how it could be easily missed at the present though because I'm in the (slow) process of updating and reformatting the post, so it's a bit messy right now. I should have it all sorted out by say mid-year at the latest.
About restrictions for the Lit Club, the main criteria is that it just be literary and fit the monthly category, and that's about it. For the most part it's left up to the nomination/voting process to weed out any nominations that might not fit well, but sometimes (rarely) I might step in if something definitely doesn't fit.
Hope that helps!

I bought two of these. The first was easy to unlock and dial a custom code. The other did not unlock with 0000 which means someone might have tampered with it in the store. These should really be sold in packaging that doesn't allow anyone to change the combo before purchasing. In any event, test the lock in the store, make sure it opens with 0000 before buying it.

I have tried to set the combination to a different number other than 0000 that came from the factory and it hasn't worked either time. (I've already returned one lock.) I followed the instructions to a "T" this last time and it still isn't taking the new combo and the old combo doesn't work now either. Back to the store it goes.

Perfect motorcycle helmet lock
By Mr. Me
from MS
About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about Bunker Hill Security Combination Cable Bike Lock:
I bought two of these. I had no problem setting the code, it's really easy. I use one to lock my helmet and bag to my motocycle, for that it's perfect, and the other to lock the wheel to the frame. I'm sure after some time it could be broken but it's great to discourage someone from just rolling off with it. They would have to work at it. All the important parts are metal, everything except the numbers. It locks tight and seems well made. Well worth the price but do CHECK IT AT THE STORE to make sure the 0000 works!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Works Great!
By BCC
from OKC
Bought this yesterday and 0000 didn't work as the combination. I looked up some videos online to figure out the code and those wouldn't work on this - that's a huge plus! People won't be able to easily steal the bike without bolt cutters. I just started trying numbers, starting at one, and my code ended up being 0007. Probably a random customer thought they were being funny. The reset knob is inside, and works exactly how the directions describe. Very Sturdy, not loose or wobbly like some others.
Great overall
By Gianni
from Miami, Fl
I just recently purchased this bike lock for my bike and have found it to be very practical to use. It's just the right size/weight for any bike and best of all, it's fairly inexpensive. I plan on buying more of these locks in the future for my Nieces and Nephews bikes.

Gets the job done
By Night rider
from Baton Rouge, LA
The lock was as described. Bought it to lock my motorbike helmet on the side of bike. It's all padded so it won't scratch the side of the bike. Simple to operate and to change the lock combination. I think as long as your not locking up your life savings items this lock will serve you good.
Handy short cable lock with settable combo
By Ben
from Homosassa, FL
This short 2 ft bicycle cable with integral combo lock is a good value considering it's features combined with low cost.Love the settable combo that lets me set the combo to 4 digits I can remember.It is small and light enough to carry easily, and easy to use. I carry it in my car just in case I forget my heavier more secure cable and lock when I take my bicycle somewhere to ride a trail and need to secure it for some reason.I do not feel the cable lock would provide high security. It is too short to fully secure the bicycle and both wheels.
Read directions - works fine
By D.J.
from West Iowa
I've bought two. The first one ended up worthless and unable to lock - because I didn't follow the directions!.In buying a second, I read the directions, in order and it works perfectly. I give it four out of five only because it's a little short, could use another 6" to a foot which would make it perfect.
Bad from the start.
By Ron
from Princeton, WV
Will not unlock the first time to set the combination. Item 66689,I live 2 hours from store.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Small and sturdy
By J Zoo
from Kalamazoo, MI
This cable and lock combo is beefier than similar thinner gauge cable locks, which is a good thing. It is really not a long cable, so measure your locking situation twice before buying. For use as a bike lock, consider it as having similar locking diameter as a large U-Lock sized lock. Although I have not tried to break it or cut it open, it feels like and has the appearance of a good medium-duty lock for the price with customizable code and easy-to-read combination numbers.

What are we to make of Governor Palin's rambling, almost incoherent resignation speech? Other than what we've already learned–that she's clearly not presidential material. Maybe she was just trying to make us forget her performance in the Katie Couric interview. It was always hard for libs like me to understand her appeal. My buddy Scott thinks it's because we're all a bunch of elitist snobs who are out of touch with the working class folks we claim to love but with whom she actually connects. I refuse to believe that. Given the recent track record of the Republican party in opposing almost anything that might help the working man, it's hard to accept that she might appeal broadly to the folks who are hurting so much right now. I get it that the right wing of the party adores her stands on social issues and her take-no-prisoners rhetoric, but they're a shrinking minority in a country that's no longer listening to their rants. Even most in the Republican party were taken aback by this move. One doesn't just walk away from elective office (in the middle of the first term, no less) because it's just not fun anymore..
Is this, then, the end of Sarah Palin on the national stage? The pundits are already writing her political obituaries, and this latest weirdness should by all rights doom her–but I'm making no predictions. Nothing in politics surprises me anymore.

The Baltimore Ravens have re-signed wide receiver Jacoby Jones to a four-year contract worth $14 million, but lost Corey Graham, who inked a deal with the Buffalo Bills.
Jones missed part of the season after a freak injury caused by his own teammate in the season opener, but he managed to make a big impact on special teams in the second half of the year.
Jones had a huge kick return for a touchdown that helped the Ravens beat the Minnesota Vikings and had a few other strong special teams performances.
He wasn't nearly as electric as a wide receiver, but showed what he can do during a strong playoff run in 2012/2013 when he helped the Ravens win the Super Bowl.
It remains to be seen how much he will see the field as a wide receiver moving forward. The Ravens are likely to sign a free agent wide receiver and/or select one early in the upcoming NFL Draft.
The contract is certainly on the upper end on what I would have given Jones, but if he can continue to be one of the league's top kickoff and punt returners, it should work out fine.
As far as Graham, it's disappointing that the Ravens didn't make a more aggressive move to sign him, especially given that he signed with a team already stacked at cornerback.
Graham will make about $4 million a year, a steal for an underrated corner who always seems to make the right play. He will be tough to replace, and it will force the Ravens to sign a free agent cornerback or select one fairly early in the draft.

What is the best thing about American performers found in overseas productions? Easy: they probably speak English!
This starts out with T.T. Boy and another guy ordering around a very large-busted woman (Sarah?) to do their sexual bidding. Her accessibility knows no limitations and she even receives a d.p. to round off her talents. Next is a solo slo-mo tease/dance montage that flips over to a 3-in-1, where moans need no translation during an anal, d.p., and well-timed simultaneous facial finish. The following woman from Italy could be a fashion model, but her explicit d.p. fucking prowess with two dudes is undeniable. She is followed by a busty British lash who starts out, accompanied by upbeat music, with a wet car wash tease and finishes with a quickie vibrator plunging.
The travelogue continues with a brunette from Argentina who pays equal attention to the d.p. and oral needs of two anonymous men and a French gal who does likewise with three guys. The first woman returns for the last fifteen minutes as she is shown waltzing around the Cannes Film Fest, at their awards show, and in clips from a lifetime of her better sex scenes.
