I am looking for a face-to-face support group for CLL in the Long Island, NY- NYC area- please let me know if you are aware of any in the area or if you live in the area and would be interested in forming one with me. The only ones I am aware of include "caregivers." While they are helpful, I would love to speak freely about my fears without upsetting or worrying my husband anymore than I already have. Any info is appreciated- thanks

I totally understand when you say : "I would love to speak freely about my fears without upsetting or worrying my husband anymore than I already have." I live 30 miles from a grocery store, and I am sure there are very few people in my area with CLL. Only others with CLL can understand, and our family supports, but can't really relate.
There are so many types of cancer most people, including relatives, don;t understand that CLL can not be cured with removal of a tumor, or radiation on one part of our body. There are many types of CLL depending on which chromosome is defective.
I understand there is only one type worse than my 11q- broken chromosome, and that is a broken 17b. There are other types of broken chromosomes that will never cause you a problem, and are low risk. Mine is high risk stage 2, and on Watch & wait

The type that is worse is a 17P, and not 17b like I stated.
This is a good article that explains what studies have shown:
I am an engineer, and must understand the principal on how things work including CLL.

Hi Dave 19. Just been following your thread. I must have bought the same pansies and wallflowers as you. My pansies finally started flowering two weeks ago. There is still no sign of any buds on the wallflowers though. Have you had any luck with yours yet.

I love Thanksgiving. I love the food, the family and the reminder to stop and be thankful for all of my life. For the last couple of years, our family has done a Thankful Tree as a reminder to be purposefully thankful during the month leading up to Thanksgiving. But this year, life got in the way (and I procrastinated) and we haven't started yet. Since Thanksgiving is next week, I went on the hunt for some meaningful Thanksgiving traditions that us procrastinators still have plenty of time to do.

Celebrity Millennium, currently sailing an Eastern Caribbean cruise, has experienced an electrical short that provides power to the ship's port propulsion system. As a result, the ship has been forced to slow down -- reducing its cruising speed from 22 knots to 17.
This has resulted in the cancellation of one port -- the Dominican Republic's Casa de Campo -- but the ship will make it to San Juan, its next call, as scheduled. It is expected that Celebrity specialists and engineers will meet Celebrity Millennium there and make repairs.
Compensation was offered based on fare paid; a Celebrity spokesman would not reveal specifics.
According to a statement from Celebrity, it is not expected that the wiring problem will impact upcoming cruises; but we'll let you know if there's more to report.

An 11 month battle with cancer came to an end the morning of Nov. 14, 2006, for a young Warren County girl. Composed, determined and secure in her faith are just some of the words used to describe Abby Cummings..
"There are so many people doing fundraisers for me that I want to do fundraisers for them when I get a chance," Abby said not too long back.
Sadly, 11-year-old Abby won't get a chance to hold any fundraisers, but the impact her life had on those around her is priceless.
"Anyone who's been near her has been amazed that she's so positive, hopeful and full of love," said Tim Harris, Woodburn Baptist Church pastor.
Abby's fighting spirit was evident to the end. Her pastor said she attended church Sunday night, determined to hear missionaries from Honduras speak.
"Abby was always a full participant in anything that was going on and if it was happening she knew she had her place and belonged here, she sat in the pew right there," Harris said as he points.
Just before Christmas last year Abby was diagnosed with a rare bone cancer call Ewing Sarcoma only to find out three months later that she was misdiagnosed and actually had Neuroblastoma.
For five months she sought treatment at Sloan Kettering Hospital in New York City, one of the leading centers in treating that form of cancer.
Pastor Harris said Abby had some amazing adventures in New York including an appearance in Ally Lohan's new Christmas video and a Today Show segment featuring a Ronald McDonald House volunteer.
"I would say folks with a camera couldn't pass up her smile, she had a mile wide smile," Harris said smiling.
Pastor Harris also said that smile was on Abby's face when she passed away with her family by her side and even though she's gone, the impact of her loving heart will be felt forever.
"She's not just a little girl lost to cancer, she's a remarkable little girl whose story of faith, love and courage should be told for a long time, she's a remarkable little girl," Harris explained.
Visitation for Abby Cummings will be held Nov. 15, 2006, from noon until 9 p.m. at Crafton Funeral Home in Franklin, Ky. Visitation will resume the next morning at 9 a.m. at Woodburn Baptist Church.
Funeral services will be held Nov. 16, 2006 at 1 p.m. at Woodburn Baptist. The church has also established an Abby Cummings Memorial Fund.

GALLERY: 18-wheeler carrying concrete drives off bridge, lands on I-20
POSTED: 7:42 AM Aug 06 2014 UPDATED: 12:59 PM Jul 29 2014

An 18-wheeler hauling concrete drove off a bridge near Elmdale Road, coming to rest on 1-20 east of Abilene.
Suffering from an unknown medical condition, the driver lost control of the vehicle and headed off the bridge, sailing through the air, before going down the embankment and coming to rest on 1-20. Traffic was diverted onto the access road while the accident was cleaned up. The driver was taken to an Abilene hospital.

No fooling, beginning on April Fool's Day you can enjoy all kinds of al fresco dining again on the Rose Kennedy Greenway. Starting April 1, this year's "Mobile Eats" begins with a total of 30 vendors, 15 of them new to the Greenway and four making their Boston food vending debut.
Beginning Tuesday April 1st the largest ever number of vendors in five years of Mobile Eats will bring fresh, affordable cuisine at six different vending locations along the downtown park seven days a week.
The daily schedule and specific locations of participating trucks and trikes can be found at rfkgc.org/food. Patrons can also follow @HelloGreenway for updates and reminders about where the vendors will be on any given day.
Over 350,000 patrons were served on the Greenway during the Greenway Conservancy's 2013 Mobile Eats season. Earned income from Mobile Eats has grown from $26,000 in its 2010 inaugural year to over $250,000 expected in fiscal 2013.
New vendors for the 2014 Greenway Mobile Eats season include Benny's Crepe Cafe with made to order crepes and omelets, Bacon Truck with gourmet sandwiches featuring locally sourced and prepared applewood smoked bacon, Captain Marden's Cod Squad with fresh local seafood, Evan's New York Style Deli, Frozen Hoagies with handmade ice cream sandwiches, Lillian's BBQ with Texas style barbecue, Lobsterdog with lobster rolls and hot dogs, Mother Juice with juice, smoothies and snacks, Moyzilla with Chinese dumplings, Pennypackers with porchetta sandwiches, Renula's Kitchen with traditional Rhodian Greek fare, Stoked Pizza, Sweet Tomatoes with thin crust Neapolitan slices cooked on-site, Tenoch with authentic Mexican offerings, and Zo on the Go with authentic gyros.

The primary locations for food vending Monday through Friday are Dewey Square Plaza, Rowe's Wharf Plaza and at the Rings Fountain. Trucks can also be found in Chinatown Park and Dewey Square Park.
The daily schedule and specific locations of participating vendors can be found on the Conservancy's website, rfkgc.org/food.
On Saturdays from May 3 through mid-October Mobile Eats vendors can be found at the Greenway Open Market located in the Wharf District Parks between State and India Streets.
On Sundays in July and August, Beantown Franks N Spuds and Boston Harbor Ice Cream will be vending near the Rings Fountain.
The Rose Kennedy Greenway is a mile-and-a-half of contemporary parks in the heart of Boston. It is a roof garden atop a highway tunnel (that was part of the infamous Big Dig) that connects people and the city with beauty and fun. The nonprofit Conservancy maintains, programs and improves the Greenway on behalf of the public and in partnership with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

The Film:
In the late 90s, writer/producer David E. Kelley was at a career high, having created several hit television shows including "Chicago Hope," "Ally McBeal," and "The Practice." However, there were also times when he took a break from television to work on screenplays for film projects, one of which was the horror-comedy "Lake Placid." The film tells the story of a vicious attack that occurs at a usually serene lake in Maine. The mysterious attack was witnessed by a local sheriff (Brendan Gleeson), but as to what carried it out is unknown, with only half a corpse and one of the creature's teeth left over. A Fish and Game officer (Bill Pullman) is called in to investigate with the help of the sheriff and a paleontologist (Bridget Fonda) in order to find out what's going on. They are eventually joined by an eccentric millionaire (Oliver Platt), who has a thing for swimming with crocodiles, which as it turns out is exactly what has found its way into the lake. However, this is no ordinary crocodile. This one is big enough to sever the head from a moose and swallow a bear whole, meaning our little team is going to have their work cut out for them, especially since they mean to capture it alive if possible.
"Lake Placid" is a film that is obviously meant to be taken as a horror comedy, and there are several spots where its over-the-top style does work, but even about halfway through, one can easily tell that the film is stuck in a bit of a repetitive loop. We start with an attack, which is followed by the team getting together to discuss what to do. When they decide to go on the lake in canoes to see if they can spot the creature, there's another attack, followed by the team regrouping to discuss what to do. When they come up with another plan, they try it out, resulting in another attack, and more regrouping to discuss what to do. With such a repetitive nature, it's not surprising that the audience's interest in what happens diminishes after a while.
The comedy side of things works decently enough, including some cheesy looking CG scenes of the crocodile attacking, as well as an amusing running gag that has Fonda's paleontologist falling out of just about every vehicle she gets in. Then there are parts of it that don't work quite as well, specifically a cameo involving the delightful Betty White, who tries to inject a little more black comedy into the story, but she ends up being a rather awkward addition instead. However, the tone that Kelley was attempting to reach for his genre hybrid works more than it doesn't, leading to a few interesting mixes of laughs and gasps, thanks in no small part to the well-chosen cast of Pullman, Fonda, Platt, and Gleeson.
While portions of the film do work pretty well, you can't help but wonder how much of an improvement a little variation would have had on the entire project. With a film like this, it's hard to tell if Kelley was trying to pull another one on the audience by having this be a one-note film like many horror movies or if he truly couldn't think of anything else to do with his killer croc premise. Thanks to its campy tone, it ends up being better than many flawed films of the genre that he's poking fun at, but in the process, he simply falls into one too many pitfalls himself.
Shout! Factory brings "Lake Placid" to Blu-ray in a 2.35:1, 1080p High Definition transfer of outstanding quality. Most of the film takes place in the dark, murky area of the lake, including the entire nighttime climax, but the picture remains flawlessly sharp, allowing you to see everything without a single issue. The 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio also has no problems to report, presenting all elements of the soundtrack at perfect levels. Overall, it's the same fantastic quality that we've come to expect from Shout! Factory.
Special Features:
Making of Lake Placid: A 30-minute "Making of" featurette that features interviews with director Steve Miner, star Bill Pullman, DP Daryn Okada, and members of the special effects team. There's a lot of interesting info presented here, so it's definitely worth watching.
Vintage Featurette: A six-minute featurette from when the movie was first released. It features a few brief interviews with the cast and crew that are very superficial, so it's easily skippable.
Croc Test Footage: It's exactly what it states in the title: several minutes of test footage. This is another one that's easily skippable.
Behind the Scenes Gallery: A gallery of images that is somewhat interesting to look at.
Shout! Factory has once again done a marvelous job at resurrecting another cult classic on Blu-ray with a pristine transfer and a great selection of special features, but the film itself suffers a little too much from its repetitive nature, making you wish that Kelley had done a little more with the premise than just reusing the same group of sequences over and over again. That being said, there are a few amusing moments, so what we get is a film that partially works, but just not quite enough to garner a recommendation.

ADT Security is widely-recognized as the Defacto standard in Bullhead security services. For this very reason, most burglars won't even attempt to step foot into a home that has a "Protected by ADT" window decal or yard sign. Nearly all criminals are going to do whatever they can to prevent being caught, so you can lower the odds of being victimized simply by showcasing the fact that you have the #1 award-winning security alarm safeguarding your South Dakota home. But if a criminal is foolish enough to test your ADT Monitored Security System, it's comforting to know that your wise choice will allow you to return to Bullhead from your trip well-rested, energized, and with all of your home's treasures intact.
Most security systems in Bullhead, SD come with an alarm that was designed to scare thieves and bring attention to the break-in. But these days an alarm is not enough, as criminals have become bolder and neighbors have become more distant. An ADT Monitored Home Security System provides you with an extra layer of protection with their high-tech Burglary Monitoring service in Bullhead.
To begin with, ADT is the leader in developing innovative home security monitoring technologies that are created to give homeowners in Bullhead the most advanced level of home security. ADT was the first security company to create a nationwide network of monitoring centers that give instant alarm response 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. So when you install an ADT monitored home security alarm in South Dakota, you are getting equipment that's user-friendly but highly-advanced. In addition to the standard home intrusion sensors, ADT alarms also come with the ability to detect additional hazards, such as fire and deadly carbon monoxide.
But imagine your Bullhead home is never robbed and for whatever reason you decide that you are dissatisfied with your ADT Monitored Home Security System. In these rare cases, you are covered by ADT's Money-Back Service Guarantee. ADT will make attempts to resolve any of your concerns, but if you still decide that you would like to switch companies ADT will refund any installation and monthly monitoring charges for up to 6 months after we install your security system.

Fall 2013 Academic All-MW List (All Sports)
By Geoff Thurner
- www.GoBulldogs.com -
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The Fresno State volleyball team continued its string of academic success by racking up 12 Academic All-MW honors in the annual announcement by the conference office.
All seven of the Bulldogs' starters were honored Thursday, including the senior trio of All-MW outside hitters Marissa Brand and Korrin Wild and MW Newcomer of the Year and right side hitter Holly Franks.
Other Fresno State volleyball honorees included seniors Lauren Albertson, juniors Christina Lee, Jaimee-Lee Morrow, Maci Murdock and Katie Pearson, sophomores Zana Bowens and Molly Pearson, and freshmen Maggie Eppright and Brooke Legaux.
Among those with multiple career honors, two `Dogs enjoyed their fourth awards (Brand, Wild). Similarly, Albertson claimed her third straight distinction, and other repeat honors went to Bowens, Lee, Morrow, and Katie and Molly Pearson.
For comparison's sake, breakdowns for honors won by other MW volleyball teams follows: Wyoming (11), Colorado State (9), Nevada (9), New Mexico (9), San Jose State (8), San Diego State (7), UNLV (7), Utah State (7), Boise State (5) and Air Force (2).
Among all fall sports included Thursday's announcement, 52 combined Bulldogs were recognized from football (20), soccer (12), men's cross county (3) and women's cross country (5) teams.
To be eligible, student athletes must have completed at least one academic semester/quarter at the member institution, own a cumulative GPA at the member institution of 3.0 or better, and have competed in 50 percent of the team's varsity contests this past fall.

The volleyball squad's recent success added to an already-crowded list of academic laurels in sixth-year head coach Lauren Netherby-Sewell's tenure. Her squad has now claimed at least six honors each of her years at the helm, including nine in 2010-11 and 2012-13, seven in 2011-12 and six in 2008-09 and 2009-10.
Team-wise, the squad has claimed four straight AVCA Team Academic Awards for its combined +3.30 cumulative GPA for the 2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 academic years.
On the court this past fall, the squad was equally successful with a fourth-place finish in the MW - tying its best placing since 2004. Similarly, its 17-15 overall mark cemented its second straight winning season for the first time since 2003-04 after the team went 18-13 in 2012.

"Grandmother" or "Grandma" was simply not sufficient, and what the next generation would utter in their adorable, drooling way took on a whole new precedence. This is largely a quaint Southern custom and elsewhere in society, grandmas are still grandmas. However, here they are Tita, Amie, Mi-Maw, Mimi, Mamaji, G-ma, Gigi, Honey, Nana, Jana, Mamey and Shugie. In the South, what a grandmother chooses to call herself is pivotal. Many women don't wait to be baptized and choose the moniker while the baby is still in utero, much like a stroller or layette. The main idea is to avoid being called "Grandma" and adopt a more youthful pseudonym, something with more vibrancy. A Gigi is still desirable, whereas a Grandma is not. Grandma is a regular woman, whereas Tita might suddenly salsa into the baby's room. Even worse, Grandmother is elderly and austere and drinks tea while occasionally correcting the children with her cane; G-ma can rap. True, many women simply want to mark their new life phase with an indication they're still alive. But grandma nicknames are also a direct result of boomer grandparents who refuse to grow old and want to be called something hip. Woodstock is over, dearie, and it's all that free love that brought you to this point. You're conning yourself if you think Bube, Bama, Botchie, Meemer and Grahamcracker are an elixir of youth. Besides, why not just skip all of the above and go with Momo? It will save everyone a lot of trouble. It's short for more money, which is what you'll be doling out. Patricia Gannon covers society for The Acadiana Advocate. She can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or at firstname.lastname@example.com. Victoria welcomes new members The Krewe of Victoria officially introduced 15 new members at a tea in the Elysian Fields home of Mazie Movassaghi. Queen Victoria herself would have approved of the ladylike lemonade and buffet in honor of the initiates, and Her Majesty Tish Johnson came in her crown, of course. Johnson will reign until October when the krewe will announce its next monarch already in the wings. Among those receiving a warm Mardi Gras welcome were Pam Zuschlag, Jeannette Alcon, Connie Guidry, pretty Amanda Taylor and Mary Beth Linahan while showing them the ropes were Sally Burdette, David Bennett, Carolyn Guilbeaux, Lynn Crochet and President Teresa Meza. Victoria moved its ball to the Cajundome last season and has therefore been able to raise the cap on its membership. Ladies who lunch Never underestimate the power of ladies who lunch, particularly this group. We were lucky enough to receive an invitation to sit in on their monthly iMonelli roundtable discussion and have rarely seen a politically savvier bunch. Taking on the problems facing society today were Pat Olson, Della Bonnette, Dr. Jeanne Kreamer, professor emeritus Vaughan Simpson, Cheryl Taylor and AOC's Vote Smart talk show host Barbara J. Conner, whose program is intended to inform voters on a wide range of topics. We predict legislative sessions would go more smoothly if iMonelli catered its cups of spinach bisque.

College Hockey:Bentley Defeats Canisius, 6-3, in Playoff Opener
WALTHAM, Mass. — The Bentley Falcons opened their 2009 playoff campaign with a 6-3 win over the Canisius Golden Griffins Friday night at the John A. Ryan Skating Arena.
Bentley held a 2-0 advantage by the midway point of period one but Canisius climbed back to even the score just after the halfway point of the game. But Bentley would answer with another two goals of their own on the power play to regain the two goal lead.
Canisius fought back and pulled within one in the opening minutes of the third but despite offensive pressure and chances in and around the Falcons net, the Griffins could not find the equalizer. The Falcons would add another two, including one into the empty net before time expired.
We played a very good playoff game, Canisius head coach Dave Smith said. Our guys competed extremely hard and we were working for our bounces. Bentley capitalized on some of their opportunities tonight and that got them the win.
Marc Menzione skated up the right wing and sent a pass across to the edge of the left circle. Erik Peterson received the pass and shot it in at 3:34 for the opening goal. Bobby Preece also received an assist on the play.
Jeff Gumaer and Dain Prewitt then skated in with speed on a 2-on-1 with trailers from both teams crossing the Canisius blue line. Once again, a pass from the right wing hit the Bentley player to the left of the net and the puck went in off Prewitts skate for the goal at 8:55.
We have excellent team speed, Bentley head coach Ryan Soderquist said. We utilized it on the rush and we were able to score a couple of goals.
Canisius struck back at 17:57 of the first when Josh Heidingers high shot beat Bentley goalie Kyle Rank. Adam Brace and Dave Kostuch notched assists on the goal.
A shorthanded goal by Canisius evened the score at 11:32. Eric Rex forced a turnover behind the Bentley net and got it to Kostuch. He skated from behind the goal line out in front, held the puck and circled the crease with Rank trying to maintain position on him. Kostuch waited until he reached the left side of the goal line before sending the puck at the net for the goal.
But Bentley would answer with two power play goals in less than three minutes. Prewitt skated up the right wing from his own zone on a three-on-two. His shot from the right circle beat Morrison over the blocker at 13:47.
Anthony Canzoneri capitalized for the Falcons next when Morrison got caught out of position. A Canisius defender slid to stop Canzoneri in the slot from an open goal but the puck got through for the score.
An excellent individual effort by freshman Adam Brace enabled the Griffins to pull within one again. Brace stayed strong on the puck while being defended against and powered himself at the Bentley net. Kostuch was able to stuff in his rebound at 1:44 of the third period for his second of the game.
Bentley held off Canisius pressure midway through the third period. Twice the Falcons goaltender froze the puck in the crease with Canisius forwards jamming away looking for the equalizer. The Griffins fired sixteen shots at the Falcons net in the third period alone.
An unfortunate bounce for Canisius at 14:42 gave Bentley a cushion. Justin Kemmerers shot from along the right boards near the face off dot deflected off a defensemans skate and past Morrison for the 5-3 advantage.
After minor penalties to both teams, the Griffins pulled their goalie with 1:30 remaining in regulation to create a 5-on-4 situation. Canisius put pressure in and around the crease for the first 50 seconds trying to score two quick goals. Defenseman Carl Hudson came the closest for the Griffins, sending a shot from the point off the crossbar.
Brendan Harrison added the empty-net tally for the Falcons on a two-on-one rush.
We played really well tonight, Kostuch said. We were all over them the whole game. They did get a couple bounces here and there and if they went our way it could have been a different game. We had our chances and couldnt capitalize on some of them. It just didnt happen today.
Canisius outshot Bentley 34-24 in the game and Rank recorded 31 saves for the Falcons while Morrison stopped 18 for the Griffins. Bentley went two-for-three on the power play and held Canisius off the board in four opportunities.
The guys are ready, Prewitt said. This is the best chance weve had in my career. I think the younger guys understand that and we have a great squad. We have the opportunity to win this tournament and win the league. Guys are putting their neck on the line. They are blocking shots and doing what they have to do to win battles and win us games.
The teams will face off again tomorrow at 7:05 p.m. in the best of three series.

Alta Bates Labor & Delivery Billing
|Related Pages
Has anyone had a natural birth at Alta Bates in the last year or so and knows about how much it does cost to have you baby delivered at the facility? I currently have Blue Cross PPO 2,500 and know that I have to pay $ 2,500 out of pocket in January, when I'm scheduled to deliver. Also have heard that there are obgyn fees, anesthesiologist fees, hopital fees, etc.Thank you.
My son spent 24 hours in the NICU. All of those costs were covered without a copay, despite being billed from several different entities. Wait for the negotiated rate bills before you pay anything and ask your insurance company about their negotiated rates for hospital delivery.
Epidural, complications or no, it's likely to be the same figure it it's a vaginal birth.
Your birth will likely cost you exactly $2500. That's my guess. Happy Delivery. Wendy
It's been almost 3 1/2 months since I delievered my baby at Alta Bates. How long does it take them to send me the hospital bill?? I'm very curious on the cost, but then again it's been nice not to have to pay right away.
I would just tuck some money aside (whatever your co-pay is + any extras such as private room.) and forget about it. My experience is their billing is very S L O W... anon
It's also taking FOREVER to get Alta Bates to send me a receipt. I've asked for it almost 2 months ago (and have called many times) and they still haven't send it! anon
On the positive side, my daughter was born 3 1/2 years ago also at Alta Bates. We haven't received a bill yet ;-) (Her birth was also covered by insurance, so maybe the insurance was billed directly.) Karen
Basically, the hospital first bills any insurance company. The insurance company reviews it, and if there is any little thing wrong they send a letter stating the error and won't pay anything until it is fixed. By the time the hospital gets the letter, or checks again to see why the insurance company hasn't paid, fixes the bill, and sends it back, it can be quite a while later. It might go through repeated rounds of this process. The hospital may have sent it to a collection agency in the meantime to have them deal with the insurance billing, so they will be the ones the insurance company will deal with and you will deal with if you call about your bill. If you have a secondary insurance, then they have to go through this same process with that insurance company.
The patient will usually not be billed until the insurance company pays (or doesn't) and sends the hospital an explanation of benefits saying how much the patient is liable for. If you don't want to remind Alta Bates about your bill, you might try contacting your insurance company to see if they can give you any information or send you an explanation of benefits telling you how much you will probably owe. This was what surprised me most, that it is the insurance company who tells the hospital how much they are allowed to bill you for.
Once you get your bill from Alta Bates, you can usually call the billing department to set up a payment plan, or to see if there is any way they can reduce the amount. Sometimes they will give you a reduced amount if you agree to pay in full right then. Or if you feel you are being overbilled, ask them to send you the itemized statement and the explanation of benefits from the insurance company. Then you can send them a letter, or let the insurance company know and they will deal with it (if there is a mistake, they will be very aggressive in getting their money back!)
Hope this helps people understand the mysteries of medical billing...

I have only found mail sending software so far (like postfix).
But I want to have software to make the server being able to receive mails.

The American Council on Exercise (ACE) released a study evaluating the effectiveness of the most popular equipment and exercises compared to the traditional crunch. Exclusive research from experts at the University of Wisconsin give muffin tops and beer bellies the go-ahead to effectively train their abs at home for free. So, while people are spending millions of dollars annually on exercise machines and products that are promoted as quick-fix solutions to achieving washboard abs, the Wisconsin team says slow down before pulling out that credit card.
The team incorporated popular equipment including the Ab Circle Pro, Ab Roller, Ab Lounge, Perfect Sit-Up, Ab Coaster, Ab Rocket, Ab Wheel and Ab Straps, as well as exercises including the yoga boat pose, stability ball crunch, decline bench curl-up, captain's chair crunch, bicycle crunch, side plank and front plank.
"Obviously, lying on the ground doing the traditional crunch is not appropriate for everyone," Edward Stenger, M.S., who led the research team alongside John Porcari, Ph.D.said. "But for the average person who wants to work his or her abdominal muscles to get stronger, have less back pain and get better health benefits, all you need to do is get a comfortable spot on the floor, lie down and do some crunches."
Electromyography (EMG) was used to identify a baseline of abdominal strength among all participants (eight males and eight females, ages 18-24). Electrodes placed on the upper and lower rectus abdominis (URA and LRA), external obliques (EO) and the rectus femoris (RF) measured subjects' maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) as they used each piece of equipment and performed each bodyweight exercise.
The result was that none of the moves elicited greater muscle activation than the traditional crunch. The Ab Wheel, Ab Circle Pro, side plank and front plank all had significantly lower muscle activation in the URA compared to the traditional crunch. And for the LRA, the Ab Circle Pro, side plank and front plank also all had significantly lower muscle activation than the crunch.
Regardless of the results, ACE Chief Science Officer Cedric X. Bryant, Ph.D., said, "It's important to keep in mind that there is no single abdominal exercise that challenges all the abdominal muscles in the safest and most effective way. For example, some exercises like the planks help to promote the development of core stability despite their relatively modest levels of muscle activation in the muscles examined in this study."

You Made Rob Dirne

Dear Cliff,
You certainly made "Rob Dirne" look like a poo.
You would think that some of these guys might have learned by now that no quarter can be given if they insist on taking the Bible as anything more than the product of romantic and mythological thinking.
If one were to take the "fig tree" story literally, it would only convince one that God, faced with a challenge, almost invariably responds with violence -- the most primitive form of response -- rather than intelligence.
Even the very central act of the Christian myth required appalling violence.
I don't know if the Bible contains one significant act by the deity that does not involve some form of physical, verbal, or psychological violence.
Other than the illusory comfort offered by the Christian myth, is there anything attractive about its deity?

He made himself look like a poo. He asked for it. I told him to stop writing several (unposted) e-mails ago, but he wouldn't believe me. He must be an aCliffWalkerist or something. That's okay, I won't punish him for it.
Maybe if I offer him a quarter --

With CM Punk's days in the WWE coming to a close, a lot of questions surround where he will end up next. One thought is that he could try out his hand at mixed martial arts and the UFC, however in an interview with Riv & Landen on March 13, former UFC Champion and WWE superstar Ken Shamrock feels that Punk has no chance.
According to Shamrock, the UFC is where the experienced fighters compete and Punk would fail if he tried to start there. He said the only way that Punk would make it is if he started at the bottom, in a smaller promotion, since he has no experience in the Octagon.
Shamrock has a good point.
While Brock Lesnar jumped from the WWE to the UFC and quickly became the UFC Heavyweight Champion, Lesnar is just a huge physical specimen and won just based on his power. However, Batista and Bobby Lashley, two more powerful men, left the WWE for MMA fighting and neither were successful.
However, Ken Shamrock also had some unkind words for CM Punk. He finished by saying that Punk walked out of the WWE because he suffers from "spoiled brat syndrome."

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Newborn, Phineas Jr.
Phineas Newborn Jr.'s technical command of the keyboard placed him alongside the greatest virtuosos of piano jazz, Art Tatum and Oscar Peterson. Newborn combined this raw skill with sensitivity and harmonic insights to create a style which continues to inspire admiration in every setting: solo, trio, quintet, and with orchestra.
Phineas Newborn Jr. was born on December 14, 1931 in Whiteville, Tennessee, into a musical family. His father was a drummer, and Phineas first played piano in a family band with his father and brother, Calvin, on guitar, but he also played the full range of reed and brass instruments throughout his formative years.
Beginning in 1945, Newborn played piano in rhythm 'n' blues bands in Memphis, including groups led by his father and guitarists Saunders King and B.B. King. His father's band, which also included Tuff Green on bass, was the house band at the Plantation Club in West Memphis, and performed with B.B. King and as a studio band for producer Sam Phillips' Sun Records, where many of the earliest rock 'n' roll records were made.
Both Phineases, junior and senior, can be heard on B.B. King's first recordings as a leader in 1949, which are included on the compilation album B.B. King Classics, 1949-1952,which was released on CD in 2003.
In 1950, Newborn Jr. enrolled as a music major at the Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial State University in Nashville. While there, he worked tirelessly on his classical repertoire and technique, developing a particular affinity for Franz Liszt, whose double and triple octave approach to linear melodies became characteristic of Newborn's spontaneous improvisations.
He moved back to Memphis and continued to study music at Lemoyne College. It was then, in 1952, that he spent some time performing with Lionel Hampton's band, and learned to play the vibraphone. The next year he was drafted into the army. After his discharge in 1955, he continued to perform in his father's group, as well as with the saxophonist Willis "Gator" Jackson.
It was in 1952 in Memphis that William "Count" Basie heard Newborn play, and brought him to the the attention of legendary Columbia Records producer John Hammond. Hammond had launched the careers of Basie, clarinetist Benny Goodman, guitarist Charlie Christian and many others.
With Hammond's encouragement, Newborn moved to the East Coast to be represented by the Willard Alexander agency, which at various times represented dozens of the era's most successful jazz musicians, such as Basie, trumpeter Maynard Ferguson, drummer Buddy Rich, and clarinetist Artie Shaw.
Newborn first record as a leader was released on Atlantic in 1956 with his brother Calvin on guitar, Oscar Pettiford on bass, and Kenny Clarke on drums.
On Newborn's treatment of saxophonist Charlie Parker's "Barbados," he adds a Latin feel during the melody sections, but opens it up to swing for improvising. The middle of his busy solo is interrupted with a spacious, bluesy shout chorus, which is welcome simplicity after such athletic improvising.
This approach, which contrasts dazzling displays of technique with a light touch a careful use of space, makes it difficult to comprehend why his early performances were criticized as lacking feeling. "There was always the temptation to turn everything into a virtuoso showpiece, to which he yielded far too often," wrote critic Pete Welding in Down Beat magazine in 1962.
Careful listening to "Barbados," or his recording of John Lewis's composition "Afternoon In Paris"from the same album, confirm that Newborn since the beginning has used his almost flawless approach only to control and articulate his ideas for the better.
Other highlights of this first recording are his extended solo introductions to Hammerstein and Kern's "All The Things You Are" and Gordon and Warren's "The More I See You," both played in a Tatum-like fashion with virtuosic embellishments of the song's original melodies.
Unlike most successful jazz soloists, Newborn made a record with a symphony orchestra quite early in his career. While My Lady Sleeps was recorded for RCA Victor in 1957 and featured Newborn with Dennis Farnon and his Orchestra. Newborn's classical training can be heard in his tone-full chords during the opening of "Moonlight In Vermont." And his obbligato lines behind the strings are carefully placed, executed with the fine articulated touch of a bebop professional.
The listener comes away from these recordings with the feeling that both pianist and orchestra wanted to make this record for themselves, as opposed to the date being merely a commercial venture. It is even stated in the record's liner notes that the members of the orchestra applauded Newborn Jr.'s playing at the end of each take.
In 1958, Newborn recorded with bassist Charles Mingus and drummer Roy Haynes., and also in addition to recording several more records as a leader. His recording with Mingus of "Nostalgia In Time Square" was featured in John Cassavetes' early film, Shadows.
With Haynes, Newborn recorded the album We Three for Prestige Records, with Paul Chambers on bass. Tadd Dameron's composition "Our Delight" showcases Newborn tastefully playing swinging eighth notes, at times in octaves, but here never resorting to his always available double time lines. Instead we hear delicately chosen notes, sparse triplet phrases, and warm bebop resolutions. From the same Haynes album, the tune "Reflection" finds Newborn systematically working phrases through the harmonic motion of the tune, and more of his signature bursts of speed.
In 1958, Newborn also toured Europe in a production entitled Jazz From Carnegie Hall. In addition to Newborn Jr.'s trio members, Pettiford and Clarke, the production also included saxophonists Lee Konitz and Zoot Sims, trombonists J.J. Johnson and Kai Winding, and Red Garland.
In 1961, Newborn moved to Los Angeles, where he recorded A World Of Piano with Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones. The session includes their arrangement of Billy Strayhorn's "Lush Life." The track hints at Maurice Ravel's "Sonatine," with Newborn improvising contrapuntal lines in contrary motion, and throughout has him sticking close to the melody, with reharmonisations, and form embellishments.
That same year, Newborn also recorded albums with trumpeter Howard McGhee and tenor saxophonist Teddy Edwards. On the Teddy Edwards record Together Again, Newborn begins his solo on McGhee's "Sandy" by improvising in a blocked chord fashion, but with more extended harmony than his improvisations included in the 1950s. The harmonic movement of this tune goes in some unexpected directions, which Newborn handles with the conviction of a musician who has continued to improve as advances in harmony have been made. It is a well structured solo, with an arc-like shape. On the McGhee/Edwards collaboration, Newborn improvises on the opener, "Demon Chase," a blues, incorporating his Memphis roots, as well as modern, intervallic phrases, and even harsh Thelonius Monk-like dissonances.
Even as he enjoyed success in the 1960s, Newborn battled alcoholism, mental illness, and failed marriages, and spent time at Camarillo State Hospital in California. After a period of hospitalization, Newborn returned to recording in 1969 with bassist Ray Brown. The records Please Send Me Someone To Love and Harlem Blueswere recorded at the same session in Los Angeles, on February 12th and 13th, 1969, for Contemporary Records.
This project involved, for the first time in Newborn's recorded output, drummer Elvin Jones. Jones's intensity was a solid fit for Newborn powerful sound and virtuosity. Victor Young's "Stella By Starlight" begins with an extended Newborn intro, typical of his style with dazzling Tatumesque arpeggios and harmonic substitutions. Newborn is easily able to match Jones' hard swinging aggression, with startling, pianistic two and three note octave passages.
Clearly at this point, Newborn's playing had not declined. "Ray's Idea," written by Brown originally for the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band, finds the pianist recalling his bebop roots. There are passages of blocked chords, and a quote of the popular song "Billy Boy." The pianists Ahmad Jamal and Red Garland had already made popular trio recordings of the tune, and often improvised using block chords.
Newborn's move back to Memphis in 1971 accelerated his decline into mental illness. As the result of a 1974 mugging during preparation for a solo piano record, several of the pianist's fingers were broken. He continued to pursue a career after his recovery, but he never recovered either the brilliance or magnitude of his output in the 1950s and 1960s.
A disappointing session from 1974 entitled Solo Piano for Collectibles, includes a melancholy approach to Quincy Jones's "The Midnight Sun Will Never Set." Absent are the quick flourishes of substance that would surround the melody, in Newborn's earlier records. There is some of his characteristic, keyboard virtuosity present on Harold Arlen's "Out of This World," but not with the same kind of fullness, or confidence that were present in his previous, effortless - if there is ever such a thing in jazz, Newborn came close - recordings.
By 1978, it had been a decade since Newborn had performed in New York, when he returned for a run at the Village Gatem, which earned him favorable reviews from The New York Times. A celebration of his career resulted in opportunities to perform in various settings at the 1978 Montreux International Jazz Festival in Switzerland, in duo performances with Jay McShann, Hank Jones and John Lewis, and a three-piano setting with Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea.
In 1982, Newborn joined Ray Brown and drummer Dannie Richmond for a trio set at New York's Sweet Basil, once again to favorable reviews from The New York Times. The gig found the pianist in a comfortable setting, performing familiar pieces from his career repertoire, including "A Night In Tunisia," "Lush Life," and "I'm Confessing."
In 1989 Phineas Newborn Jr. died in his home town of Memphis of lung cancer. He was survived by his mother Rose, two daughters, Shelly and Pamela; a son, Phineas the 3rd; and two grandchildren. At the time of his death, he had reportedly been working on a set of sonatas by the Russian composer Alexander Scriabin, which was to be recorded.
Newborn was buried in a pauper's grave in the Memphis National Cemetery. According to jazz historian and critic Nat Hentoff, the difficult circumstances of Newborn's later years prompted the 1989 founding of the Jazz Foundation of America, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping with the medical and other expenses of aging musicians.
In a tribute to Newborn, Oscar Peterson, whose style, along with Tatum's, was often linked to the Memphis pianist, said: "If I had to choose the best all-around pianist of anyone who's followed me chronologically, undoubtedly I would say Phineas Newborn Jr."

Oops forgot to close the previous Div

 More stuff

 More stuff
Trying to find the find each element with findMe in the class with a regex is way more trouble than it's worth.Now
while these example are contrived and you most likely won't get such a
mix of styles. You could get one that you weren't expecting. And if
you HTML was created by a team of developer you may get that mix after
all. And remember you can't even assume the HTML is correctly written.
So the moment you notice you've missed a style you didn't account for
you have to adjust your pattern which could be a huge nightmare.Another
thing to consider especially when searching by attributes is the a
regex can't reuse consumed text. Consider the following

Blah

 Some text to find

Blah

 Blah Blah Blah
Again
if the task is to find all elements with a find me class. Let's assume a
regex can match the div element. Once this is done the regex engine
will proceed to find the next match after the div element's closing
tags. It will not go back inside the div to find the class on the
elements within the div.Instead
of trying to hit a moving target with a regex, the HTML DOM would parse
all the above samples, even the incorrect one, because that's it job. Of course if there are
errors the document may not be parse exactly as you intended but it will
be correctly parsed. From there it is fairly easy to find the element
you need. Reformatting the markup is very unlikely to break code using the the DOM.
For example using the popular JavaScript library JQuery the follow snippet would find all all the elements with a findMe class.
var foundThem = $(".findMe");
Or in the versions of JavaScript supporting getElementByClassName
var foundThem = document.getElementsByClassName('findMe');
quickly XML which has stricter syntax rules, well formed, all
attributes quoted, may seem more regex friendly but there are other ways
to parse XML. Xpath or XQuery both more maintainable than a regex
would be for this task and easier to use and understand in most cases.
You can use a regex which may work, some of the time, or the DOM, something that should work all the time. In the end the choice is yours.

Possible crime connection between two Craigslist sales gone wrong
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - BREAKING NEWS UPDATE - July, 18, at 6:45 a.m.
Authorities say four people have been arrested in connection with the thefts. Police believe they are connected, and the group could be responsible for other robberies. We'll have more on these developments as details become available.
What started as a car for sale on Craigslist turned into a crime scene.
Now, police are looking into whether it's linked to another nearby crime.
The police report stated two parents wanted to get their 16-year-old son a car. They contacted "AJ" and took a test drive.
Then, two different people approached the family with guns in hand and demanded cash. They fired five shots at the couple at an apartment complex at the 5500 block of East 84th Terrace and took off.
The report also revealed the phone number of the seller on Craigslist, AJ. A quick search online using that number brought up several items still available on Craigslist including a car, an Xbox, and cell phones.
Less than two miles away from the shooting, a second Craigslist encounter happened a few hours earlier.
The victim planned to sell an Xbox, but gave it up when two men threatened him with guns.
Detectives haven't determined if the two Craigslist incidents are connected, but police said crimes like these are happening more often.
"It is something that is starting to happen quite often from the smallest item to the biggest item I would use caution," Sgt. Kari Thompson of the Kansas City Police Department said.
Police recommend meeting a seller in a public place, even a police station. Also, don't use cash. Use a money order instead.
Kansas City Crimes Stoppers is now offering a $7,000 reward for information into the shooting.

- MCS Parents
Our middle school program serves students in 7th and 8th grades in a small, close-knit community. Students arrive at 8:15 a.m. and their school day lasts until 3:30 p.m., with an optional Study Hall until 5:00 p.m.
Just as Maria Montessori believed the elementary student entered a new plane of development at age six, the adolescent is beginning a new developmental phase around age 12. We provide our young people with a developmentally appropriate environment in which to grow and learn. The Montessori Middle School provides a more structured weekly schedule than a Montessori Upper Elementary environment, including scheduled meetings for some classes and large blocks of work time.
The Middle School curriculum accommodates the academic, physical, and social challenges of adolescence. Each student is expected to contribute large and small acts of leadership. Each student is called upon to identify meaningful research projects that spin off from the two cultural areas - history and science. Students also participate in weekly reading, writing, Spanish or French, research skills, and other lessons. The Montessori Middle School believes in the central importance of social and emotional development, so there is also time devoted to meaningful reflection, creative self-expression, debate, and hands-on connections to the land, the surrounding community, and the world.
Middle School students begin their year with an overnight trip, visiting sites that will set the stage for their studies during the year. In addition to increasing students' academic understanding, the field trip provides a community-building experience for the group and allows each student to magnify his or her own independence as well as realize meaningful interdependence on friends, family, the greater community, and the natural world.
