COLUMBIA, S.C. - The S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control has received lab results for the suspect cases of swine flu, the agency announced today.
"Of the viruses sampled, two were type A, unsubtypable. That means, because this is a novel virus, we will assume that these two cases that were tested at the lab do have the new swine flu virus and these will now be considered 'probable cases,' so they are being sent to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for further evaluation and testing," said Jerry Gibson, M.D., chief of DHEC's Bureau of Disease Control. "We expect that those who are sick to voluntarily isolate themselves for a short time, and those who were exposed should voluntarily quarantine themselves at home. DHEC will assure those in isolation will receive appropriate treatment.
"These steps are asked not only to help exposed and infected citizens, but also to protect others from exposure and illness, and to prevent further spread," Dr. Gibson said. "Isolation and quarantine are used to protect your family, friends, and others from the virus."
Gibson said that you should wash your hands frequently, cover your cough and sneezes with your sleeve (not your hand), and if you have signs or symptoms of Influenza, you should avoid crowds and if your symptoms become severe you should contact your health care provider.

Examining The Coolness Of The Korg iPad Apps
For over 50 years, KORG has been a formidable manufacturer of electronic musical instruments and components. Since 1962, the Japanese manufacturer has been producing various devices which are used extensively by musicians across the world internationally. Known more widely under the Vox brand name these days, they have a reputation for creating some of the very best audio equipment available. KORG was the brainchild of Tsutomo Kato and Tadashi Onsanai and after they were approached by engineer Fumio Meidia, a path was set to design and manufacture keyboards. At the request of Kato, Meida built a prototype programmable keyboard which paved the way for a range of highly sophisticated musical devices for the fledging synthesizer market in 1973.
It's all about the Korg?
The KORG name is a made up of the surnames of the two pioneers and the 'OR' from the word organ.
In 1987, the Yamaha Corporation gained a controlling interest in KORG which was shortly followed by the release of the M1 Workstation. This was an amicable take over since Yamaha had always had involvement with KORG from the start by supplying them with electrical circuitry and various other parts. The M1 Workstation went on to sell very well indeed breaking the 250,000 barrier by 1988. It became the best selling synthesizer ever at that time. After just 5 years of Yamaha control, most of the KORG share capital was reacquired by Kato and in 1993, KORG acquired Vox which was a guitar amplifier manufacturer.
Over the years, KORG has grown from strength to strength, diversifying in a plethora of musical products such as tuners, digital effects and software instruments. All of these have proved tremendously successful.
Despite all of this continued success, the company has not rested on its laurels and has sought to grasp opportunities where possible. The Smartphone phenomenon has created one such opportunity.
There are a number of KORGs original devices which have been reborn and available on iOS software.
Korg App Central?
Apps have been created by KORG which allows professionals as well as amateur musicians and producers on a budget to gain access to the technology which is normally only possible with the notoriously expensive synthesizers. A KORG Polysix from 1981 will usually command a sale price of over $1000 but for just under $15 you can be the proud owner of this remarkable Japanese musical innovation as long as you own an iPad. The Polysix has all the features of the original with some additional ones such as 'choral support', 'dual Kaoss Pads', a 'drum machine with a mixer' and the brilliant Polyseq Step Sequencer. The 'Sound Cloud' feature enables the user to create samples, publish them and share with other iPad users.
The Polysix is very user friendly and includes some unique features such as an additional key which displays an overlay and allows the user to adjust values down to two decimal places which makes for brilliant accuracy. You can tap the screen to reveal larger keyboards for adjusting octaves as well as the Kaoss option which displays X-Y track pads.
The sound created by the KORG app is very impressive indeed. Some have said it is superior to the original device since this app has 28 internal effects as well as 35 various scales and modes.
KORG has completely embraced the App market and many of their best selling physical synthesizers have been developed for tablet devices in addition to the Polysix such as the best selling M1 Workstation, the MS-20 and the Wavestation.
It should be noted that these types of virtual synthesizers are more suited to electronic styles of music as opposed to classical or jazz genres for example. Therefore this aspect should be taken into consideration before you download the app.
The future for apps like KORG looks good. One thing's for sure is that they have certainly proved their coolness over the years. New and improved techniques are constantly being developed by the company with the iPad user firmly in mind.

Not necessarily. This thread is dealing with the options in combining
components. Should we go with a large application in a box, a box with
multiple smaller applications put together by the vendor, or do we go
with multiple boxes, each doing one thing well?
While most of us would automatically say the third, the first offers
features and possible ease of management while the second offers ease of
management and the possibility that everything will work correctly with
minimum hassle.
The original question was about using the first or second option instead
of the third. What we have no clue about is what resources are being
defended, what the value of those resources is, what the time of the
management team for the firewalls costs, what resources are already
The answer is 42.
While the answers on this may say "Industry leaders say that we should
use multiple boxes", it does nothing to help answer the question of
actual suitability of the system(s) in question to deliver a desired
level of security.

News 12 This Morning / Wednesday, July 25, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- It's not a doctor's visit any child likes.
Getting shot with vaccines that help protect against deadly diseases requires a stockpile of cute stickers, colorful Band-Aids and a full staff of nurses to ease the pain.
"We will start back-to-school immunizations walk-in clinic for Columbia County. We expect it to get extremely busy," said Linda Graves, the Columbia County manager.
Packed with parents like Hillary Barstow, a mother of three young girls entering school soon.
"I have to work and everything. I have to get it done early," Barstow said.
She's beating the back-to-school rush, but her oldest daughter Gabriella would rather delay.
"I don't like it," she said.
If you just moved to the area or have a young child entering school for the first time, they will need the following shots:
"We need those previous immunization records. We ask that if they are new, that they bring those records in prior to coming for a visit," Graves said.
If they miss any shots, they can't go to school.
"Then the school will not accept them, therefore parents have to take time off from work then maybe a waiting period, so that is more time out of school," Graves explained.
That's why nurses strongly urge parents to take advantage of the walk-in clinic hours starting July 30 and then continuing Aug. 1 through the 7th.
Graves said they expect 200 to 300 visitors to the health department per day.
Barstow is glad she came in early.
"It is aggravating, but I did it today, so she's good," Barstow said.
Come Aug. 7, it'll be painless to send her daughter to school.

Background: Mathematical formulas have been used to clinically predict whether patients will develop the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). However, these models do not take into account the disproportionate craniofacial anatomy that accompanies OSAS independently of obesity.
Objective: To determine the accuracy of a morphometric model, which combines measurements of the oral cavity with body mass index and neck circumference, in predicting whether a patient has OSAS.
Design: 6-month prospective study.
Setting: University-based tertiary referral sleep clinic and research center.
Participants: 300 consecutive patients evaluated for sleep disorders for the first time.
Measurements: Body mass index, neck circumference, and oral cavity measurements were obtained, and a model value was calculated for each patient. Polysomnography was used to determine the number of abnormal respiratory events that occurred during sleep. Sleep apnea was defined as more than five episodes of apnea or hypopnea per hour of sleep.
Results: The morphometric model had a sensitivity of 97.6% (95% CI, 95% to 98.9%), a specificity of 100% (CI, 92% to 100%), a positive predictive value of 100% (CI, 98.5% to 100%), and a negative predictive value of 88.5% (CI, 77% to 96%). No significant discrepancies were revealed in tests of intermeasurer and test-retest reliability.
Conclusions: The morphometric model provides a rapid, accurate, and reproducible method for predicting whether patients in an ambulatory setting have OSAS. The model may be clinically useful as a screening tool for OSAS rather than as a replacement for polysomnography.
Measurement of the palatal height by two separate calipers, labeled ABC and DEF. Angle ABC is a 20-degree angle between the maxillary and mandibular incisor tips with the vertex (B) of an externally placed caliper at the mandibular condyle. Angle DEF represents a caliper placed inside the oral cavity. The vertical distance DF is equal to P (palatal height) in millimeters. Measurement from the mesial surfaces of the crowns of the second molars to obtain either Mx (maxillary intermolar distance) or Mn (mandibular intermolar distance) in millimeters. Measurement of OJ (overjet), or the horizontal overlap of the crowns of the maxillary and mandibular right central incisors in millimeters.
The white bars represent the OSAS group; the striped bars represent the non-OSAS group. The dashed vertical line indicates the model cutoff value of 70. The OSAS group has 254 patients with a mean morphometric value of 95.3 ± 21.2 and an age range of 24 to 77 years. The non-OSAS group has 46 patients with a mean morphometric value of 61.6 ± 6.2 and an age range of 15 to 71 years.
Different discriminant capacities to distinguish patients with the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) from patients without OSAS by using the morphometric model (MM) (a), body mass index (BMI) (b), and neck circumference (NC) (c) are shown. The true-positive and false-positive rates for the entire locus of possible points for the selected discriminant capacity are shown in each graph. The area under the curve values are 0.996 for the morphometric model, 0.938 for BMI, and 0.898 for neck circumference.
This scatterplot shows the craniofacial component (P + [Mx − Mn] + 3 x OJ) in the abscissa compared with the obesity component (3 x [Max (BMI −25, 0)] x [NC ÷ BMI]) in the ordinate. Plus signs indicate patients with a diagnosis of the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS); circles indicate patients without OSAS. The solid line indicates the decision boundary at a craniofacial component cutoff value of 70, revealing the contribution of the craniofacial component of the model to nonobese patients. BMI = body mass index; Mx = maxillary intermolar distance; Mn = mandibular intermolar distance; NC = neck circumference; OJ = overjet.

Senators Hope to Spear Banking Whales
How the tide has turned. For some time, J.P. Morgan chief James Dimon was the only banker with the stature to lead the charge against ever-more stringent bank regulation in Washington. Now he's a reason for it.
During a Senate Banking Committee hearing Wednesday, assembled bank regulators — from the Federal Reserve, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. — noted how J.P. Morgan's recent huge trading loss was informing their thinking about upcoming rules or had reinforced the need for big banks to have big capital buffers. This is a setback for bank lobbying efforts to blunt some provisions of financial-overhaul legislation.
Some senators urged the regulators to avoid a political response to J.P. Morgan's travails when putting finishing touches on things like the Volcker rule banning proprietary trading at banks. But others made clear that regulators had better take a hard line, or next time they'd be on the hook. Democratic New Jersey Sen. Robert Menendez admonished them: "If huge trading losses happen at banks after Volcker, the blood will be on all of your hands." Tough for even Mr. Dimon to counter that.

By Nick Patterson Herald Writer
EVERETT — There were no blown kisses by the Everett Silvertips following their game against the Vancouver Giants on Saturday night. Just a salute to the enthusiastic crowd at Comcast Arena that witnessed the Tips take one more step toward another playoff berth.
Everett inched ever closer to playoff position Saturday, defeating the Giants 4-2 in an intense and ill-tempered contest that finished off the teams' home-and-home weekend set.
The Tips remained in ninth place in the Western Conference, one spot out of playoff position. But Everett is getting hot at the right time. The victory was Everett's fifth in its past seven games — and the first against a team with a winning record. With Seattle losing to Portland on Saturday and Victoria idle, Everett has now pulled within one point of the T-birds and the Royals in the standings.
And the Tips accomplished that with a feisty effort that brought back memories of the rivalry between Everett and Vancouver from 2005-07, when it seemed an altercation ensued following every whistle.
"We wanted to come out and try to initiate a lot of things," Everett coach Mark Ferner said. "We haven't been at home for a while, and when you play a team back-to-back some of those emotions carry over.
"We bent at times, but we didn't break," Ferner added. "Our kids right now are out of gas. That's four games in five days. I'm very proud of the way they played, no only tonight but even last night. It was a well-deserved victory."
Kent Simpson played a strong game in goal for Everett (15-32-1-8), finishing with 41 saves. He stopped all 14 shots he faced in the third period, when the Tips were clinging to a 3-2 lead. Cody Fowlie, Jari Erricson, Reid Petryk and Josh Birkholz scored for the Tips.
Neil Manning and David Musil scored for Vancouver (32-21-1-2). Adam Morrison stopped 24 shots in net for the Giants.
There was bad blood between the teams from the start Saturday, stemming from a contentious game played between the teams Friday night in Vancouver, one which the Giants won 3-2. In that game, there was a melee that ensued following the final horn and in the aftermath Vancouver captain Brendan Gallagher was seen blowing kisses toward the Everett bench. That incident appeared to add to Everett's motivation Saturday.
"If you look at the standings, that's more of a motivation for us," Simpson said. "We're a team that's desperate to try and get into the playoffs, we just needed the two points. (The incidents from Friday) obviously add a little fuel to the fire, but wins are huge right now."
The Tips also received a heroic effort from its defensive corps. Everett lost two defensemen in the first period when Evan Morden limped off and Nick Walters had to have 23 stitches in his lip. But those who remained did yeoman's work, with Ryan Murray and Dominik Bittner in particular logging heavy minutes.
"Coming off four games in five nights, it was a battle," Simpson said. "We were down on the 'D' end, so it was a lot of courage from the guys to battle through the whole 60."
An angry first period ended with Everett leading 1-0. The Tips took advantage of a Vancouver turnover at the Giants blue line at 5 minutes, 47 seconds, with quick passing from Kohl Bauml and Ryan Harrison setting up Fowlie for a shot into the top corner.
While the teams continued to stare daggers at one another in the second, the Giants rallied to take the lead. Manning finished off a two-on-one feed from Marek Tvrdon at 1:31, and Musil's one-timer from the point on the power play beat Simpson clean at 7:26, giving the Giants a 2-1 lead.
But the continued chippy play led to penalties, and the Tips capitalized twice later in the second to regain the lead. Erricson tucked a backhander from in close past Morrison at 9:29 just after a five-on-three power play expired, then Petryk shot past Morrison on a scramble just after a five-on-four expired 2:02 later as Everett went ahead 3-2.
The third period was one-way traffic as the Giants controlled play while the Tips played conservatively. But Everett managed to keep the puck out of the net, and Birkholz scored into an empty net with 47.3 seconds remaining to clinch it.

BASE Jumping
BASE jumping, or fixed object jumping is the ultimate in extreme sports. BASE is an acronym that stands for BUILDING / ANTENNA / SPAN / EARTH. It is a sport that is truly considered EXTREME by every measure of the word.
The sport takes the skills learned from Skydiving and uses them to jump from fixed objects. Although the equipment of today's BASE jumper looks much like that of skydiving equipment, it is specially made to meet the demands of the extreme environment the sport presents.
Special equipment and modifications allow jumpers to safely exit from objects as low as 300 feet or lower and land without injury. Freefalls can last anywhere from one second to over a minute depending on the height of the object being jumped from.
It is truly an amazing sight to watch a BASE jumper leap from a tall building in a crowded city, open his/her parachute safely, then land with precession accuracy on the streets below.
BASE jumping for years was an underground sport. Although not as illegal as many people thought, jumpers sometimes trespassed in order to get the altitude they needed to make a safe jump.
Today BASE jumping is an accepted sport in many countries around the world. Some countries actually invite BASE jumpers to their cities in order to gain world recognition through the publicity the BASE jumpers generate.
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia actually hosts the world Championship of BASE jumping from what was until recently the world's tallest building, the Petronas Twin Towers. Norway with its shear 3,000-foot walls attracts hundreds of jumpers each year who make thousands of jumps. And more recently, the Jing Mao building in Shanghai, China has started hosting BASE jumping demonstrations. See BASE Jumping Photographs and BASE Jumping Videos.
Even the United States participates in BASE jumping. For years the New River Gorge Bridge in West Virginia has hosted Bridge Day, a single day BASE event that attracts over 250,000 spectators and over 400 BASE jumpers. The day is filled with as many as 800 plus BASE jumps being made from the 876-foot bridge.
BASE jumping is an extreme sport performed by highly experienced individuals who have trained for years in order to make these dangerous jumps look easy. Only qualified individuals should ever attempt such a feat. Aerial Extreme has been performing BASE Jumping Stunts, Exhibition BASE Jumps, and leading BASE Jumping Expeditions for over twelve years.
If you are interested in BASE jumping then you might consider contacting one of the following BASE companies. Only experienced skydivers are considered eligible to attend one of the few BASE courses being offered. Carefully discuss your experience level with one of the following manufacturers and choose which one will best meet your needs.

BPC's Helms named to LaGrange College Wall of Outstanding Alumni
Sherrie Thompson Helms, dean of students at Brewton-Parker College, was added to the LaGrange College "Wall of Outstanding Alumni" during the LaGrange Homecoming Alumni Luncheon on Oct. 19.
Each year the College Alumni Association honors those graduates who have distinguished themselves in their chosen professions and communities. More than 60 names have been added to the wall since its dedication in 1994.
Helms, who lives in Vidalia, received a bachelor of arts degree in social work from LaGrange College in 1980 and a master's degree in mental health counseling from Fort Valley State College in 1993.
Helms began her career as a social worker for the state of Georgia upon receiving her master's degree and was instrumental in starting several statewide outreach programs.
She also is credited with launching a successful after-school program for at-risk children in Swainsboro, where she served as continuing education coordinator. Area schools and state organizations referred children for the program, which is still in existence.
Helms joined the Brewton-Parker staff eight years ago as the director of counseling, and students honored her office as department of the year during her tenure.
She was named dean of students in 1997 and serves on several campus committees. Brewton-Parker students voted her the National Alumni Society Distinguished Staff Member of the Year in 1999.
Helms' community involvement includes serving as captain of the Brewton-Parker Relay for Life Cancer Walk team and participating as a member of Trinity Baptist Church in Vidalia. She also plays each year in the college's student-staff basketball game during Homecoming week.
During her years at LaGrange College, she was a member of the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority.
A four-year liberal arts and sciences college affiliated with the United Methodist Church, LaGrange College is ranked in the top ten and as a "best value" among 105 Southern comprehensive colleges by U.S. News & World Report. The college is the oldest private institution of higher learning in Georgia and has an enrollment of about 1,000 students.

A wheelchair that offers unparalleled mobility for people with disabilities in developing countries
Quick Links
The LFC has a simple variable mechanical advantage drivetrain that enables its user to travel on tarmac faster than a conventional wheelchair and off road like no other mobility aid available. The LFC rider can change gears by moving his hands on the levers: grabbing high increases torque, enabling travel over rough terrain, grabbing low increases angular velocity, enabling fast travel on smooth terrain.
The LFC project is motivated by the 14 million people needing a mobility aid in the rural areas of developing countries (USAID), where existing products like western-styled wheelchairs and hand-powered tricycles cannot cope with the rough terrain. A device with the LFC's capabilities is desperately needed, as these people must often travel long distances under their own power to access education, employment, and community connections.
All moving parts on the LFC are made from standard bicycle components. The LFC has been trialed in Vietnam, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Guatemala, and India. The design has evolved through four generations based on qualitative performance data and stakeholder input.
The LFC is currently being prepared for production through a partnership with India's Jaipur Foot, the world's largest disability organization. Our manufacturing partners have invested the cost of tooling and manufacturing space for the production line. We are exploring other international partnerships to open new worldwide markets for the LFC.
Amos Winter, Amos is the lead inventor of the LFC. The idea was inspired by a summer fellowship he conducted in East Africa in which he researched wheelchair technology. He started a class at MIT called "Wheelchair Design in Developing Countries" and later founded the MIT Mobility Lab. He received his PhD from MIT in Mechanical Engineering and will join the faculty in July 2012.
The rest of the team became involved through their participation in Amos's wheelchair design course. They have all spent significant time working in developing countries to field test the LFC, refine the design, and collaborate with our partners.
Mario Bollini, Mario is currently a second-year masters student in Mechanical Engineering at MIT. He has been part of the LFC since its inception.
Ben Judge, Ben is a first-year masters student in Mechanical Engineering at MIT. He is leading the design of the US-version of the LFC.
Tish Scolnik, Tish received her SB in Mechanical Engineering from MIT in 2010, with a special focus on engineering for international development. She is currently the Executive Director of Global Research Innovation and Technology (GRIT), the nonprofit the team founded to bring the LFC to market.
Comments and Support
congratulations on your design. I have been considering the lever design for years but life got in the way. Such a design would be very helpful in our hilly terrain. Is it possible to get a drawing? I am a disabled engineer. Thanks- Tom

May 2, 2007
AUGUSTA, Ga.---Before they could finish at the scene of one shooting, Richmond County investigators were called to another one.
Both shootings happened less than a mile apart--the first on Wrightsboro Road and the second within the Gilbert Manor complex.
Two people were shot, but their injuries are not life-threatening.
Tonight investigators have their work cut out for them. They believe these shootings are definitely related to other cases and are now interlinking several crimes.
The sight of police tape, deputy cars and suspects being taken away has become all too common in Gilbert Manor. Today it was more of the same.
Deputies were called to the complex after two shootings, the first at 1400 Wrightsboro Road and the second near Spellman Road.
Richmond County sheriff's deputies say the crimes are connected and also linked to another shooting on March 19 at the Pak-n-Go gas station on Olive Road. A 19-year-old man was shot in that case:
"We're investigating a possibility of a retaliation," said Inv. Edwin Ackerknecht. "Maybe, we don't know if there was a report of the incident, but some bystanders have said that there was a possible shooting going on prior to the injuries that occurred."
According to investigators, the incidents are also gang-related-and they point to other crimes.
"With the evidence we found, we feel pretty confident it will lead us to a couple of cases," Inv. Ackerknecht said.
"I really wish it would stop," said Augusta resident Catherine Head. "There are too many people leaving here on account of a bullet."
Catherine knows personally the pain that these shootings have caused. Her grandmother, Rosa Lee Barnes, was shot and killed in July of 1997 after stray bullets flew into her bedroom on 8th Avenue.
Catherine says the shootings have gotten out of control:
"All y'all young peoples out there getting these guns, going around shooting everybody, thinking y'all all that...y'all need to leave it alone," she said.
"And it's been close deaths, it's been people we know and families," said another Augustan, Stephanie. "When you lose your loved one it stays with you, but it stays with you more when you realize you lost that person for no reason."
"What's the point?" Catherine asked. "When you shoot and kill somebody then they're going to be looking for you. You know you going to get locked up."
"Life is very short, so we need to make the most of it, and start living better and doing better," Stephanie said.
As for suspects, authorities say they know who they're looking for. That's why right now they are not releasing the names.
They're hoping to be able to connect these crimes together and bring multiple charges all at once.

Some say a clean car runs better. That's debatable, but it's indisputable that driving a clean, shiny car makes you feel better. When your pride and joy looks its best you want to turn around and gaze at it after parking, and you never tire of the admiring stares. You can get those great feelings all the time when you maintain your car with products from our great selection of auto detailing supplies. We have everything for every surface.
Car Care Kits are the most cost-effective way to care for your car, because they include everything needed to maintain the appearance at a lower price than you'd pay if each product were purchased separately. Contents vary according to kit, but typically you get car wash, wax, detailer, wheel and tire cleaner, applicator pads, polishing cloths, and detailing towels. Some kits even include a bucket, wash mitt and cleaning and detailing brushes.
Ideally, car wash should lift dirt from the surface and allow it to be rinsed away, without scratching the finish or removing wax. Household dish detergent should never be used on your car! We carry premium car wash products, including those specially formulated for matte finishes. While you're in cleaning mode, don't forget your windows. We offer glass cleaner that will remove airborne dirt and debris from the exterior and smoke film and haze from the interior, without leaving streaks. Finally, clean, protect and shine your wheels and tires with our easy to use spray-on cleaners and long lasting tire dressings.
Our extensive selection of waxes and polishes will deliver a showroom new shine that lasts. We offer polishes and compounds to remove scratches and swirl marks, and deep clean paint, and clay bars to remove surface contaminants. If your finish isn't in bad shape and you're pressed for time, cleaner wax can polish and protect the paint and deliver a superior shine. Plus we have pure carnauba wax products and sealants to protect the paint from environmental factors and UV rays. And of course, we have all the applicators, detail and polishing cloths, and microfiber towels to leave a lint-free glossy finish.
A spectacular exterior demands an equally splendid cabin and that's what you'll have with our interior care products. Our vacuums will suck up all the dirt, plus we have steam cleaners to remove even the most stubborn stains from carpet and upholstery. Microfiber towels can be used to dust the dash, console, door panels and other surfaces, while detailing brushes can be used to clean hard to reach areas like around control buttons and knobs and inside vents. We can supply you with a variety of carpet and upholstery cleaners as well as plastic polish, vinyl protectant, and leather cleaners and conditioners.
Guides & Articles
- Wheels & RimsCleaning and Protecting Your WheelsWheels that catch your eye because they really set off a vehicle do so because they are clean and sparkling, not dirty. If turning back to gaze at your own rims brings disappointment, the time is now to clean them up, get them looking their best with a shine, and develop a routine for keeping them that way.

- These formations are of a different type than the hypocoristics discussed in Benua under Output-Output constraints.
hypocorism noun
- Example sentences
- 'Bill' was not used as a hypocorism during the Middle Ages and so the surname 'Bill' is not involved.
- The suffix o/a attaches to Pilipin - before the hypocorism to o/ay.
- A hypocoristic (or hypocorism) is a lesser form of the given name used in more intimate situations, as a term of endearment, a pet name.

American Flag Counting Activity
Why not add some red, white, and blue to your life, and give your kid some practice with a major math concept…counting to 100 independently. A little independence is definitely a good thing…no matter what time of year it happens to be!
What You Need:
- 9" x 12" white construction paper
- Ruler
- Pencil
- Red and blue crayons
- 100 silver foil star stickers
What You Do:
- Use a pencil and a ruler to draw lines to form a simple flag design on the construction paper. (A rectangle in the upper left corner with no stars; thirteen horizontal stripes on the right.) Flip the paper over and repeat.
- Have your child color the flag on both sides. She should color every other stripe on the flag red, beginning with the top stripe, and leave the stripes in between white. Once she's colored all of the stripes, it's time to color the rectangle blue.
- Ask your child to gather her star stickers, and tell her she's going to use them to make a very special flag. She'll start with fifty on the first side, putting them one by one onto the blue rectangle. As she places each sticker, she should count it aloud. When she gets to fifty, ask her to flip the flag over, and start on the other side, counting from 51, all the way to 100.
Display the flag in a window so it can be viewed from both the inside and outside of your home.

|Biggie and Faith Evans
Former Bad Boy artist, Faith Evans, recently stopped by the "Wendy Williams Show" to dish about the things she's currently working on, but somehow the topic of her deceased husband, Biggie Smalls, came up.
Now I don't think Wendy Williams was trying to be messy or anything, but she did bring up the past and not so much of a pretty past either. For starters, Wendy asked Faith about a time when she caught Biggie Smalls and Lil Kim in the bed together! Then Wendy took it a step further by asking Faith what did Lil Kim do when she caught them in bed together?
Although these were incidents that happened in the past, opening up old wounds can sometimes be the sure fire way to start up some unnecessary drama, but that's just me. However, after those questions Wendy then asked Faith about a time when Faith saw Lil Kim at an all white Diddy party and things "reportedly" didn't go to smooth then either. But I'm not going to give it all away.
