Diabetes Health Center
Still 'Room for Improvement' in Preventive Care of Diabetics
Nov. 3, 1999 (Atlanta) -- The American Diabetes Association recommends that the 15.7 million diabetics in the U.S. receive annual eye exams, semi-annual foot exams, and a yearly test showing average blood sugar control. However, many diabetics are not receiving this care. Annual eye examinations for diabetics may be on the rise, but other preventive care for this population lags behind, according to a study conducted in Rhode Island by the CDC and published in the Oct. 29 issue of Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
Complications of diabetes include blindness, kidney failure, heart disease and stroke, painful feet due to nerve damage, and leg and foot amputation. Many studies suggest that preventive care, such as a blood test (called glycosylated hemoglobin) to monitor recent blood sugar control, as well as eye and foot exams can reduce the complications of diabetes and save health care dollars.
"In Rhode Island, the managed care organizations seem to be doing a good job [of providing preventive care], as evidenced by a very high proportion of people getting their eye exams," Venkat Narayan, MD, tells WebMD in an interview. "On the other hand, there are certain other kinds of preventive care practices, like foot exams and annual glycosylated hemoglobin assessments, where there is a lot of room for improvement. Also, ... there are specific target groups that would benefit from these improvements." Narayan was not involved in the study but is chief of the diabetes epidemiology section of the CDC in Atlanta.
Narayan says the findings from Rhode Island, for the most part, support those around the country. "Preventive care practices have varied very widely across managed care organizations," he says. "If there is a surprising finding, it's the fairly high rates of eye exams, suggesting that there have been recent improvements."
This study included about 400 diabetics who were receiving care from a major health maintenance organization (HMO) or major preferred provider organization (PPO) in Rhode Island. Subjects were surveyed to determine how many times in a year a health care provider had conducted a glycosylated hemoglobin, dilated eye examination, and foot examination.

It sounds like your trying to use your hitachi to rip the game using wxripper ?
You only need to use the Hitachi to extract the SS, you should use a normal dvd rom to rip the game
Or is that what your trying ?

I just got my son a shiny new red bike, and being a concerned (and geeky) parent this helmet was the obvious follow-up gift! He wears it around all the time even when NOT on the bike! It's durable too... safe AND awesome!
Five year old son LOVES this. Rides his bike, wearing his Iron Man Helmet and Iron Man suit. Massive smiles from everyone he rides past. Sometimes he wears it to eat breakfast. Cereal can be dangerous. But not for Iron Man.

Errors Of The Human Body
- Air Date:
- Following divorce from his wife and the loss of his son to a rare genetic mutation, Canadian geneticist Geoff Burton relocates to the harsh, wintry scenery of Dresden, Germany to work on groundbreaking new project that might just be his key to redemption. When teamed up with his former intern and colleague Rebekka, he starts working on a human regenerative gene with direct ties to his personal tragedy, yet matters prove increasingly difficult: jealous co--workers' feelings are ruffled, old flames are rekindled and personal demons become consistently harder to suppress in this new and oppressive work environment. Still haunted by the memory of his wife and his failures to have saved his deceased son, Burton finds himself maddeningly close to a medical breakthrough, yet quickly spiralling out of control. Collapsing his career and personal life into a dark and increasingly dangerous tunnel--vision of competitive genetics, delusions of all kinds and the terrifying potential of massive discoveries gone awry, Burton is quite literally the stranger in the strange land. The question remains: how far will Burton be willing to go to atone for the errors of his past?

Stationery Cards
rather sexyby Kociara
Free Worldwide Shipping Ends Tonight at Midnight PT!
Set of folded stationery cards printed on bright white, smooth card stock to bring your personal artistic style to everyday correspondence. Each card is blank on the inside and includes a soft white, European fold envelope for mailing.
A sultry game of shadows this design is ablaze with exotic, female sensuality…..
With its vivacious sway of sultry silhouettes and electric colour contrasts, this is dramatic, show stopper design. Like a Palm Springs film set, a golden Californian sun hue fills the design with warmth and vigour. Palm-like canopies grow across the backdrop in the scorching heat, dappled in a lemon peel yellow.
Sleek silhouettes sweep into web like patterns, drifting up the design like a sultry summer haze. Their long, lithe legs create diamante-like shapes, while the curves of their hips and arms add a curvaceous jangle. It's almost like an obscure animal print of an exotic animal never before seen.

Formulating a game plan for Rice didn't take a lot of film study for Southern Mississippi's defensive coaches.
With one of the best pitch-and-catch combinations in the nation and a freewheeling offensive style, the Owls are easy to figure out. But as the Golden Eagles prepare for tomorrow's game in Houston, they know that stopping Rice isn't so easy.
Southern Miss coach Larry Fedora says a third of Rice's snaps come with an empty backfield. That makes the challenge to cover a flood of receivers and keep from giving up big plays.
In their first season under Fedora, the Golden Eagles (2-4, 0-2 Conference USA) can ill afford to give up any more plays, big or otherwise, against the Owls (3-3, 2-1).
Southern Miss is in danger of snapping its streak of 14 straight winning seasons, the fifth longest in the Bowl Subdivision. The team is in the midst of its first three-game losing streak since 2004.
To stop Rice, Southern Miss will have to stop quarterback Chase Clement and receivers Jarett Dillard and James Casey, who've had an off week to get ready for the game

A World of Honey Collection
Honey is produced on every continent except Antarctica, and almost every culture has a history of collecting honey to use as food, medicine, or religious artifact. In Greek mythology, honey was often considered "ambrosia," a food or drink of the Greek Gods. Today we are able to find rare and unique honey varietals from across the world, each a fascinating product reflecting its local ecosystem, the plants in bloom at the time of harvest, and the skills of the apiary in harvesting the honey. This assortment includes four of our favorite honeys:
Asian Pear Blossom Honey
: This delicious local raw honey is a light amber in hue, with a sweet, flowery aroma. Packed in a globe jar reminiscent of the Asian Pear's distinctive shape, this honey is truly one-of-a-kind. (8 oz)
Truffle Infused Honey from the Yarra Valley
: The base of this amazing golden honey is Red Gum and Clover Honey from Australia. The Valley Produce Company infuses two grams of fresh French Perigord black truffles with white truffle oil to produce a truly elegant honey. (4.2 oz)
Pine and Acacia Honey
: An old tradition in the Trentino region of Italy is to add the resinous flavor of pine to foods, as you might with rosemary or juniper. The gentleness of acacia honey is united with the special aromas of
pino mugo,
the Italian Mountain Pine. (8.8 oz)
Wisconsin Cranberry Raw Honey
: This raw Cranberry honey is a true reflection of its floral source and has a delicate cranberry aroma. Smooth, pungent and mildly tart with subtle floral hints, this honey finishes with a very light fruit flavor. (10.5 oz)
Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal or greater value.
No honey should be fed to infants 12 months or younger.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Ok, first off I would like to say that, I am a former employee of this so called "company" and you all need to know what goes on behind the scenes when we aren't going around ripping people off.
The first time I found out about Palmetto was through a classified ad newspaper that made the company sound like a dream come true, "Travel the USA representing Fashion Sports and Celebs! and get paid!" Well, of course I've always wanted to trvael the US and I was in desperate need of a job and I really wanted to leave Alabama.
So I called the number and talked to Lucas Schwahn the manager of one of the many teams who worked for Palmetto, I found out there were a bunch of other teams and we were all suppose to be competing aginst each other for this contest or somethin, but he had told me that I could make about 600.00 in one week! Well, you know my mom was having financial difficulties and I thought "Wow 600.00? I could send mom that money and help her out a bit"
So I signed up he paid for my greyhound ticket and I travelled out to AZ. He met me out in Tuscon and we drove out to Phoenix. The first day was cool. I got to sleep in my own room for the rest of the day and all. But I was told that we might have to leave for Texas because our team was so small, we weren't bringing in enough sales.
The next day I was out for the work, I had a trainer (and of course it had to be the boss' girlfriend) and she was all spunky and great. She told these people about the contest and trying to sell magazines. She sold about 7 that day and I thought, "Wow I can do that!" I got paid that night we had to bring our sales in and all and she gave me one cause I was only out training. I got 20.00 so I spent it on food and cigarettes.
That following day more training, but the thing was, I started to feel uncomfortable. The boss had told me on the phone there was going to be no use of drugs, and I am an ex drug addict, so it's kind of hard for me to say no sometimes. But we were invited into this guys house. Yeah ok Melissa sold four magazines to him, but she also shared some pot with him as well. I wanted some but I told myself no, that's when things started going down hill.
That following day I was out on my own. I had no luck selling anything, but there was another worker that had been there for about a week and also having trouble selling things. They cursed at him and made him even more frightened then he already was. I felt bad for him, but it seemed he had pretty much a bad attitude about the whole thing anyways.
I got paid that night, but I didn't think the 600.00 a week thing was going to happen, which pretty much upsetted my mother and so I told her, "If you can wait two weeks I'll have atleast 300.00" but I knew that meant I would have to starve and go without cigarettes.
The following day was even worse. It was raining really hard and me and Scott (the guy with the bad attitude) went off selling magazines. I was cold and hungry. I hadn't eaten anything for breakfast and I was soaking wet but I tried keeping a straight face and a good attitude the whole time.
I didn't get paid that night although I did make one sale. I thought that was kind of suspicious but I was informed that if I made at least 3 sales after training I was to get 20.00. I was hurt and angry, and also bumming cigs from everyone, so I went to bed last night with hunger pains, and homesick.
So Friday we leave for texas. Once again I eat nothing for breakfast and I was feeling grumpy because I had no food. I felt cramped and very sick but they still made me do a few drops that night when we went into Las Cruces, this nice couple let me have something to eat cause they could plainly see I hadn't eaten for almost 3 days.
So anyways I fall asleep, and wake up the next morning in the van and find out we got stuck in Ft Stockton, and we were going to be there for quite sometime. I was only focusing on my hunger right then and there and not any work we were going to do. So I scrounged around in my purse hoping that I could maybe find a little something to sustain me, but I found my checkbook instead. I know my account was closed but I didn't want to die from not eating so I got up, and ran to the gas station and sure enough they took out of state checks. So I grabbed anything I could get my grubby little hands on and wrote a check out. I also did this for walmart when we finally got up enough money for a hotel room.
So of course I felt better with cigarettes and food. But the guys that night (this was halloween) got some cocaine from a guy from the next room over. I sat there helplessly almost with tears in my eyes while I saw them do lines. (I use to do it a logn time ago, temptation can be a vile thing) but as hard as it was I said no.
Anyways, we went out the next morning to sell magazines, and a cop had stopped me. He had informed me that the company I was with did NOT have a permit to sell magazines here and we couldn't do it anymore. I also found out that day that my friend got beaten up by some people just because they could. This was getting bad, and I was getting more scared then ever. So we head out to Houston as soon as we got whatever needed fixed fixed, and when we get there I find out I was fired because I didn't WORK for my money to buy food, and they said if I wanted to eat I had to work for it.
I got pissed, I literally punched Lucas out and just walked, he bought my ticket back home and I will tell you I took my shoes off and i had alot of calisus on my feet.
Ok so this is what happened. The magazines are scams yes but the reason why for this long story was to tell you all what went behind the curtains. Everything happened drugs, betrayal, and lies so don't trust palmetto. They lure unsuspecting people in to sell their magazines and if you don't do it the way they want they'll shut you down

Glen Barber at the FreeBSD Foundation made a visit to New York Internet data center, which houses some FreeBSD servers. Follow them along on their journey through the internet's closets:
Original: http://freebsdfoundation.blogspot.com/2015/05/another-data-center-site-visit-nyi.html
No Systems Administrators Were Harmed While Writing This Blog Entry
Mmm… Freshly-unboxed servers. There really is nothing better to wake up to in the morning.
Well, okay, coffee. But new servers – definitely second.
In late April, the FreeBSD Foundation generously purchased more machines to keep the FreeBSD.org infrastructure operating smoothly. While the new servers are not yet in production (a task the Cluster Administrators will undertake while at BSDCan in June), we have planned far in advance what we intend to do with the new hardware.
In mid-May, I spent several days at our East-Coast US colocation facility, racking, cabling, installing, and configuring the new servers.
As They Say in Real-Estate: Colocation, Colocation, Colocation
The new hardware is located at New York Internet in Bridgewater, New Jersey, who generously provides colocation services to the FreeBSD Project. They have an amazing staff, and whether we are on-site or working with them through their ticket system, are always friendly, knowledgeable, and of course, helpful.
New Hardware Specs
Jordan Hubbard, co-founder of FreeBSD, talks about FreeNAS's beginnings and its transformation to a new product — TrueNAS.
Original post: http://www.ixsystems.com/whats-new/the-history-of-freenas-truenas/
The FreeNAS project got its start way back in 2005, when Olivier Cochard-Labbé wanted to turn his old PC into a home server. There wasn't an open source project that fit all of his needs, so he did what any self-respecting software developer would do: he sat down and wrote his own. Just like that, the software that would eventually become the world's most popular open source software defined storage was born.
Development continued until 2009, when one of the project developers proposed moving FreeNAS to a Debian Linux based system. This move would have meant losing access to the FreeBSD community and the overall quality of its software, and FreeNAS would also lose its native ZFS support, since the ZFS On Linux project didn't even exist at that time. iXsystems had used FreeNAS for many years and sold servers specifically made for FreeNAS, so Matt Olander, one of the iXsystems founders, reached out to Olivier and offered to take over FreeNAS development on FreeBSD. Olivier gave his blessing, and iXsystems started immediately working on FreeNAS 8. In order to modernize FreeNAS, the development team at iXsystems rewrote almost all the code and replaced the m0n0wall PHP code with a full featured, easy-to-use webGUI.

During the Flash Memory Summit, Chris (Tweaktown) spoke to Matt and Josh (iXsystems) about the future of the FreeNAS project. In addition, they discuss TrueNAS, an enterprise version of FreeNAS.
We sat down with Josh and Matt from iXsystems while at the show. Matt and Josh unloaded a lot of information about FreeNAS and where the project is headed. It sounds like the big push for the second half of this year revolves around making the product more user friendly. A new wizard system should tame the complicated but powerful storage specific operating system.
The FreeNAS developers also also pitched us TrueNAS, not that it was difficult to make us listen. iXsystems will soon offer TrueNAS in an all flash array, something we're excited about. The current builds of TrueNAS use hybrid storage pools with flash acceleration.

The developers of FreeNAS have released version 184.108.40.206.
Well, we said 126.96.36.199 would be the last in the 9.2.1.x series, but CVE-2014-3560 (a possible remote Samba exploit) forced us to change those plans. Come and get it from here, as usual!
While we were at it, we also added a few small performance improvements and brought over a small feature from 9.3, namely the ability to do replication on a direct link without encryption, potentially speeding up replication anywhere from 3-4X (especially over 10GbE). This is generally most useful when doing initial replication to a backup box, while they are co-located together, after which normal encryption can be used in sending the deltas.
Appended are the release notes for 126.96.36.199. We encourage all existing 9.2.1.x users to upgrade. Thanks!

iXsystems will be hosting this year's MeetBSD California, at Western Digital located in San Jose. This "unConference" will take place on November 1-2, 2014.
MeetBSD California is the premier BSD conference in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since its inception in 2008, MeetBSD California has been held every two years in Silicon Valley, bringing together BSD community members from all over the region and around the world.
Previous settings for MeetBSD California have included the Google and Yahoo! campuses and the Hacker Dojo in Mountain View. This year's venue, the Western Digital campus in San Jose, will remind attendees that the hardware BSD runs on is just as important as the applications it can run.
Matt Rutledge, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Storage Technologies for WD, said "Open Source technology continues to be key to the future of scalable, maintainable computer systems, and groups like those that develop the BSD operating systems are a key part of that ecosystem. We're thrilled to welcome the BSD community to WD for MeetBSD 2014, and look forward to the open, collaborative innovation they represent."

For admins, the work never ends. Administrative professionals fill key office management functions every day – tasks that go unnoticed (until they're not done).
Admins are the unsung heroes of the workplace – the glue that holds an office together. Every week should be Administrative Professionals Week!

You can't manage what you don't measure. This old management adage explains why most bosses want administrative professionals to create measurable goals. But how do you measure results in a job that's often about responding to others' needs?
One admin wrote: "Our company just reorganized and changed our job titles from administrative assistant to 'office assistant.' None of the job functions changed. I feel demoted. Should we go to our manager and speak to him about our displeasure or just be quiet and not say a thing?"

How to: Declare a Structure (Visual Basic)
You begin a structure declaration with the Structure Statement, and you end it with the End Structure statement. Between these two statements you must declare at least one element. The elements can be of any data type, but at least one must be either a nonshared variable or a nonshared, noncustom event.
You cannot initialize any of the structure elements in the structure declaration. When you declare a variable to be of a structure type, you assign values to the elements by accessing them through the variable.
For a discussion of the differences between structures and classes, see Structures and Classes (Visual Basic).
For demonstration purposes, consider a situation where you want to keep track of an employee's name, telephone extension, and salary. A structure allows you to do this in a single variable.
To declare a structure
Create the beginning and ending statements for the structure.
You can specify the access level of a structure using the Public (Visual Basic), Protected (Visual Basic), Friend (Visual Basic), or Private (Visual Basic) keyword, or you can let it default to Public.
Private Structure employee End Structure
Add elements to the body of the structure.
A structure must have at least one element. You must declare every element and specify an access level for it. If you use the Dim Statement (Visual Basic) without any keywords, the accessibility defaults to Public.
Private Structure employee Public givenName As String Public familyName As String Public phoneExtension As Long Private salary As Decimal Public Sub giveRaise(raise As Double) salary *= raise End Sub Public Event salaryReviewTime() End Structure
The salary field in the preceding example is Private, which means it is inaccessible outside the structure, even from the containing class. However, the giveRaise procedure is Public, so it can be called from outside the structure. Similarly, you can raise the salaryReviewTime event from outside the structure.
In addition to variables, Sub procedures, and events, you can also define constants, Function procedures, and properties in a structure. You can designate at most one property as the default property, provided it takes at least one argument. You can handle an event with a Shared (Visual Basic) Sub procedure. For more information, see How to: Declare and Call a Default Property in Visual Basic.

Well after 5 times in 3 months of being ripped off or leaving without the item at the advertised price-it is very discouraging to listen to an employee tell me that its corperate training that they are not to address the price unless the customer does?

El tema de nuestro tiempo: The Time Is Now for Dual Language
August 15, 2009
In 1923, the great Spanish philosopher, José Ortega y Gasset, troubled by what he saw as a crisis in European culture, published what would become one of his most influential works: El tema de nuestro tiempo, The theme of our time. Ortega's point is not to reveal the one single theme of his own era. Our experience, Ortega tells us, is "generacional," generational, and the theme of a time is the course or pathway a generation sets for itself. "Cada generación tiene su vocación histórica." Each generation has its historic vocation, its calling. For example, a generation may find itself living in conservative times, "épocas acumulativas," or periods of expansive thought and action, "épocas polémicas," "épocas críticas." To lay hold of the theme for one's times, to understand the moment during which one lives and works, becomes for each of us the awakening required for effective action.
If asked, what would we offer as the theme of our time? What period are we living through? What special work are we called, now, to do? We may pursue solutions to many challenges—health care, environmental decay, shortage of water, a failing economy. But are these, for us in Laredo today, "el tema de nuestro tiempo?" I think not. What issue or question in Laredo permeates everything we do and everything we dream, even as it defines who we are?
Our generational, historical, social, political, and cultural theme, rooted in our history and lighting the way toward a better tomorrow, is language. How do we use it and how do we teach it? For us, in Laredo, in Texas, in the United States, the subject of language touches all the learning outcomes we project and all the dreams we imagine for ourselves and for the generations which will follow us. We know the goal: we want our students to compete effectively with young people everywhere. We want our graduates to assume their rightful role in global society. The enormous strides we have seen in thinking about education—what to teach and how to teach it— equip us, I am confident, with the knowledge we need to help students become part of the American dream writ global. But on the matter of language—what to teach and how to teach it— we are today paralyzed in a position I know all of you find unacceptable, frustrating, and wasteful.
First, let's be ruthlessly honest with ourselves. It was at this very Conference, several years ago, that we all heard Dr. Virginia Collier and Dr. Wayne Thomas and saw what their extensive research has uncovered. What we are still groping for is not an answer or an approach to the question of language… They gave us that. Their message could not have been more clear: Children in a properly executed dual language program outperform their monolingual peers.
What we still lack is the resolve, as a community, to take the decisive and obvious steps. Professional responsibility for showing the way rests first with the College, the University , and our school districts. But we have spoken. In numerous meetings over the last two years, all of us agree as to which course of action is best for us. We now need our community—Laredo and our neighboring cities, to join us. We must recognize the communal responsibility to act because Laredo, Webb County, and those cities and counties which border ours, are uniquely positioned to benefit more than any other by our right actions on the matter of language. If we fail to act, we will suffer the bitter regret of lost opportunity.
At this point, we confront two obvious questions. First, how are we doing with our mandate to empower our students for global competition? Second, what has language acquisition and teaching to do with the dream of participation in the international enterprise? Since we live, I am thankful to note, in a data-driven age, the answers and our responses should be informed by the numbers. First, how are we doing? In 2003, 4.9% of students taking the SAT/ACT in one district, and 7.7% in another, achieved a score nationally recognized as "college ready." In 2007, 9.3% of students in one district, 7.6% in another, scored college ready. In 2003, 27.2% of all Texas children scored college ready; in 2007, that number stood at 27%. The point is clear; this is not merely a Laredo problem. Neither we in Laredo nor we in Texas are where we wish to be. The answer to the second question, regarding language training and student success, I will address in these next few minutes.
Laredo's history reveals how it is that we along the border gain the most from right-thinking about language, and lose the most by bungling this issue. On May 14, 2005, Laredo, Texas celebrated its 250th anniversary, making this city one of the oldest in the United States. Because of its age and its history, our town has been slow to acquire the look of Middle America. Laredo's population, now approaching 250,000, is 94% Hispanic, located in what is often described as the most heavily Hispanic county in the nation. Unlike many sister cities on the Texas or California border with Mexico, the numbers also determine the dominant, even preferred, culture.
Spanish continues as the language spoken at home by an astonishing 91% of the residents of our county. Unlike many other Texas cities, we in Laredo have no sense that "Hispanic" is somehow a lesser position, that to speak Spanish renders us somehow less American. Economic and political power, in the past and today, resides in Hispanic hands, and our cultural landscape is a tranquil one. There is no local chapter of the Mexican American Chamber of Commerce. Why should there be? No one feels left out or passed over or disenfranchised because of a Hispanic heritage. We proudly consider ourselves bilingual, bicultural, binational, the only Spanish colonial city today fully American, yet self-consciously enjoying its Hispanic face.
Recent disquietude in our Congress and across our nation concerning illegal immigration often focuses on the fear that a Hispanic presence means México and its culture is moving north. Again, this is not true in Laredo. When asked what makes us most proud of our city, Laredoans often reply that, in this place, ethnic, cultural, and religious origins blend in a harmonious and productive whole. Cross-cultural marriages create family relationships that blur the barriers of ethnicity and religion, forging a protean culture of easy tolerance within this community. At the same time, and unlike much of Mexican popular culture, Laredo has always taken great pride in its Spanish roots.
The impact of our unique history upon language makes Laredo a fascinating laboratory for those who pursue language study. Nuevo Santander, the Spanish name for our region, was an isolated colony, and that isolation has allowed us to preserve, like bees in amber, many expressions and verb conjugations wrongly thought to be a border aberration, or, as we say, pocho. Truje or truxo, for traje and trajo are in fact the language of Cervantes, still the 18th-century Spanish of Laredo's founders. Vide, for lo vi , and haiga, a jumble of haga and hay, also come to us from our Castilian heritage. Spaniards refer to la tapia, a garden wall; we say la barda, the same word Don Quijote uses.
In addition to vocabulary and verb forms from Spanish of another era, our blended culture has produced a blended language, a Spanish-English argot uniquely our own. It is not the often-mentioned "Spanglish" that one hears in Laredo, but improvised words, loaned or sculpted, trimmed or stretched, moved from one language to the other, in patterns that predictably recur. We drive trocas and feel trileados, English pressed so effortlessly into Spanish that we move between languages without fully realizing what we are doing. Or we jump back and forth to have fun with language. My own children, not speaking English until kindergarten, still like to talk about the rain forming "charcs," about cars colliding to produce a "choke," or passing Chi-who-a--who-a Street.
While it is great fun to patch and parse simultaneously in two languages, our game has one unhappy consequence: young people who have grown up in Laredo are often slow to develop an ear to distinguish accepted idiomatic constructions in either language. It is not that we are illiterate in two languages, as pessimists have sometimes said. It is that we have created a third tongue, and therefore are not as certain of ourselves when the occasion requires only English or only Spanish.
Recently, we have been exploring, together with the City and County, the possibility that Laredo might acquire National Public Radio. Those talks have laid bare, at least for me, linguistic realities I had not considered. In that most universal of all media, radio, Laredo today has no station which connects us, as NPR would, to our national dialogue. Children cannot tune into the rich stream of standard English available through public radio. Nor is it possible in Laredo to teach English by the method known elsewhere as "immersion." Here, the water will always swirl with currents both English and Spanish. We have seen this as a problem; it is in fact the most potent weapon for stellar performance, awaiting proper deployment.
As is so often the case, Senator Judith Zaffirini articulates with striking clarity the challenge. For elementary school children, she points out, bilingual education is a remedial effort; for high school students, it is a path for the gifted and talented. Her description, I think we all know, is sadly accurate. Fortunately, we know exactly how to fix this, how to send all our children into the world fully fluent and comfortably speaking, reading and writing both English and Spanish.
We must, as quickly as possible, implement a dual language program in every elementary school in Laredo. The research is clear. Children fortunate enough to finish a well-executed dual language experience outperform their monolingual contemporaries. My beloved mentor, Professor Edmund L. King from Princeton, a native of Austin and trained at UT, used to observe that "my students will learn what I teach them." If we teach our children to be truly bilingual, they, like children all over this globe, will meet our expectations. The responsibility is ours.
On July 29, our Dean of Student Success, Dr. Minita Ramírez, and I attended a presentation at the Coordinating Board in Austin. The speaker was Professor Patricia Gándara, Professor of Education at the University of California at Los Angeles. Her topic was not new: How might Texas do a better job of educating what by 2015 will be its large, Hispanic majority? At several points in her presentation, she urged us to speak publicly and loudly of our needs. Ask our elected officials to launch a campaign for education, she suggested. This we must do for language learning in Laredo. And we cannot wait.
Each year we roll forward with things as they are—a few elementary schools following the dual language course—is a year lost for most of our students. Remember: they only go through each of their school and college years once. We see freshmen or sophomores or third-graders or middle schoolers every year. "I'll remember to do this right with the next class," I recall telling myself on countless occasions. Dual language curricula provide the undisputed model for improvement, but today, August 15, 2009, it remains an unfulfilled promise to the future. We cannot go back and give those students who graduated from high school last May the dual language tool that could have made them all truly bilingual.
Our calling as teachers and scholars and students in South Texas is clearly summarized in the mission statement of the University: to "prepare students for leadership roles in their chosen profession in a culturally diverse state, national, and global society." That vision for education, to prepare for a diverse future is, I would argue, more easily reached in Laredo than in any other Texas locale. Here the English and Spanish empires met and, in our city, commingled their institutions, practices, languages. But we must harness for our benefit the rich research in language acquisition. We must form, in a marriage without divorce, a curricular bond between what we know about language and how we plan what we teach children.
I end these remarks recognizing the three formidable challenges that have stood in our way, and I share your chagrin that we continue to struggle with them. First, parents don't understand, and tell trustees they don't want a program that includes Spanish. This is like saying one doesn't want a vaccine for polio, or one is hesitant about co-education. Surely we can answer that one. Second, faculty don't unanimously embrace a dual language model. Again, we should be able to address that; it is our profession that has laid out this path for us all. Finally, I am told that we have a shortage of teachers able to deliver the curriculum in strong and standard Spanish. And again, shame on us. If we are committed to this plan, I am confident that we can find and produce the teachers.
One final number should both surprise and stir us to act: 13% of the citizens of Webb County are under the age of five years. Only one other county in the United States has such a large percentage of the very young. If we get this right, if we teach what they need, if we equip our children to be truly bilingual, we will have turned who we are to the best possible advantage.
If we fail, if we lurch forward with bilingual education a remedial plan for elementary schools, a gifted and talented opportunity for high schools, those who follow us will repeat the same question many of you today ask: When will we do what both science and experience tell us is right?

AbstractThis paper presents a hybrid control strategy, combining Radial Basis Function (RBF) network with conventional proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) controllers, for the greenhouse climate control. A model of nonlinear conservation laws of enthalpy and matter between numerous system variables affecting the greenhouse climate is formulated. RBF network is used to tune and identify all PID gain parameters online and adaptively. The presented Neuro-PID control scheme is validated through simulations of set-point tracking and disturbance rejection. We compare the proposed adaptive online tuning method with the offline tuning scheme that employs Genetic Algorithm (GA) to search the optimal gain parameters. The results show that the proposed strategy has good adaptability, strong robustness and real-time performance while achieving satisfactory control performance for the complex and nonlinear greenhouse climate control system, and it may provide a valuable reference to formulate environmental control strategies for actual application in greenhouse production.

#1272 closed defect (invalid)
KeyError when using users.AddManipulator() and have a model with meta.ForeignKey(auth.User)

I have a model that has a ForeignKey to an auth.User object:
class Person(meta.Model): user = meta.ForeignKey(auth.User, edit_inline=meta.STACKED, num_in_admin=1, max_num_in_admin=1, core=True) address = meta.ForeignKey(Address, null=True, blank=True) phone = meta.PhoneNumberField(null=True, blank=True) dob = meta.DateField(blank=True, null=True) def __repr__(self): u = self.get_user() return ' '.join((u.first_name, u.last_name)) class META: verbose_name = _('Person') verbose_name_plural = _('People') admin = meta.Admin()
When I try to use an AddManipulator to add a user like this:
personal_info = request.POST.copy() personal_info['username'] = 'somebody' personal_info['is_staff'] = False personal_info['is_active'] = False personal_info['is_superuser'] = False username_counter = 0 user_manip = users.AddManipulator() #user_manip.do_html2python(personal_info) while(1): try: u = user_manip.save(personal_info) break
This causes the following Exception to be raised:
KeyError at /sign_up/save/ 'person' Request Method: GET Request URL: http://localhost:8000/sign_up/save/ Exception Type: KeyError Exception Value: 'person' Exception Location: /Users/berto/Development/django/django/core/meta/__init__.py in manipulator_save, line 1809 Traceback (innermost last) [...]
I tried setting personal_infoperson? = None, but I then get yet another error:
AttributeError at /sign_up/save/ 'list' object has no attribute 'items'
To solve this problem, I added the following bit of foo to django/core/meta/init.py:
[berto@peroxi][659]$ svn diff django/core/meta/__init__.py Index: django/core/meta/__init__.py =================================================================== --- django/core/meta/__init__.py (revision 2116) +++ django/core/meta/__init__.py (working copy) @@ -1807,7 +1807,10 @@ child_follow = self.follow.get(related.name, None) if child_follow: - obj_list = expanded_data[related.var_name].items() + try: + obj_list = expanded_data[related.var_name].items() + except: continue + obj_list.sort(lambda x, y: cmp(int(x[0]), int(y[0]))) # For each related item...
I'm not sure if it's exactly proper to simply ignore the exception, but I've not run into any adverse affects doing so.
Oh, and as a side comment, the line:
causes django to just hang for some reason (which is why I commented it out).

Yet again, the FA have picked a plonker to manage England

Actually, we can build stadiums, and great ones. Old Trafford, Emirates, Southampton, Sunderland, all over the country are brilliant stadiums built on time, and on budget. It is the FA that are the plonkers here. They are in no way representative of the country as a whole. They wanted Wembley to be an architectural statement, rather than a football stadium, and look where its got them.

it was the fa's admin skills and common sense or lack of, that i was referring to in regards to the stadium not getting built on time and within budget.

I then contacted Robert Ready who advised me that the company offices were moving that month and could I be patient during that time. I told him I understood but would like to move forward as soon as the move was made as I had already been waiting two months. After the move I was advised that the check would be processed and sent within the next 60 to 90 days. None of this was what was agreed upon either initially when posting the money or when asking for the refund.
90 days has now passed and no check. My Financial Advisor placed a call of inquiry for me and a Charlie Stevens called me back and left a message that the check would be mailed next week. Another delay.
After some flimsy excuses and five months of delays I am not a very happy camper. I expect the check to arrive this week and will report on this site if NLR keeps their word or finds other reasons to delay in which case I will need to seek other remedy.
I am hoping that this unpleasant encounter ends as a win win for both NLR and myself rather than a lose lose situation.

Ed Miller and his cronies have failed at every turn to keep their promises. Never did anything for us and never came through on promises to repay our $2,000. I have given them the benefit of the doubt but have been ripped off. For now. I will not give up and hope other will not either. Does anyone know about class actions suits or contacting the Florida attorney generals office?
I did business with these guys partly because they were doing business through who I thought was a respectable attorney's office (Fried & Saperstein PC, Harold S. Fried 29800 Telegraph Rd., Southfield, Michigan 48034 tx 248-353-6500). I name names and will also give credit where credit is due, but so far no money.

WASHINGTON — One of the lesser-known factors in why East Asian students have trouble seeking counseling lies not in the Chinese or Taiwanese culture, nor in the upbringing of these students, nor in one of the numerous myths and stereotypes that follow them around campus.
Chinese students are coming to study at the University of Iowa in increasing numbers. In part two of this story, Guannan Huang spoke with some of these students to find out the difficulties they've had adapting to American culture.

Carnivale in Trinidad and other parts of the Caribbean is a mixture of different cultures coming together to celebrate, bringing together elements such as French foxes, Spanish horses and African spiders.
Another part of the party can be a Chinese dragon, which was toward the front of a long parade of children around the Iowa City Public Library and the pedestrian mall and included Luke Becker, 10, of Iowa City, and his sisters, Emma, 9, and Cora, 6.
"I liked ringing the bells on the dragon and shaking around," Luke said.
Fifty years ago, President John F. Kennedy signed an executive order establishing the Peace Corps as a way to help people in developing countries; within six months the first group of volunteers was deployed. Half a century—and more than 200,000 volunteers—later, little about the independent government agency has changed.

The Rev. Mark Kiyimba was forced to leave his Ugandan home in March for his safety.
The gay-rights activist, now in the United States, stood before a captivated church crowd Sunday morning to discuss Uganda's gay rights issues.
Though he's not gay himself, Kiyimba has traveled from church to church across the United States for the last 12 weeks, hoping to raise awareness of a Ugandan anti-homosexuality legislation.
Unprecedented cuts were made by Congress to International Education and Foreign Language Studies for the current fiscal year. While a $50 million reduction may not seem terribly large in the context of a federal budget of more than $3 trillion, this particular cut amounts to a 40% decrease in funding for these areas, affecting U.S. Department of Education programs in particular.
Following a shaky six-year peace agreement, the birth of the Republic of South Sudan is the final stage in the hopes of ending decades of war.

After five minutes of practice, my students at the University of Iowa joined their first ever "chopsticks contest".

Fewer than 24 hours after he got off a plane from Islamabad, Pakistan, Ben Rogers was sitting on his couch in Cedar Rapids, watching the news of Osama bin Laden's death unfold.
Rogers' April trip to Pakistan, as part of an unofficial U.S. State Department-sponsored delegation, was at the heart of his discussion of American-Pakistani relations during a speech to the Iowa City Foreign Relations Council Wednesday.
In this video, Rochelle Liu talks about her study abroad experience in Beijing, China. She was able to connect to her extended Chinese family, fulfill requirements for her Chinese minor, and feed her sense of adventure by zip-lining off the Great Wall of China. Liu advises students to be open minded of other cultures and learn to appreciate your host country's history and people.

Currently on return flights from a trip to Asia, with at least my fair share of flight delays, I have had time to reflect on the importance of building relations between the University of Iowa and our constituencies abroad, in particular the growing number of friends and alumni we have living in other countries. There are two reasons for the growing significance of our ties to friends and alumni abroad. First, there is the fact that our international enrollment has grown significantly over the past few years, particularly at the undergraduate level. We welcomed about 60 new, first-year i

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Monday, Jan. 6, 2014
AUGUSTA, GA (WRDW) -- Members of congress, other lawmakers and even one physician converged on Charlie Norwood VA Hospital.
They were asking questions and looking for answers surrounding delays and deaths of three veterans at the facility due to a lack of proper care.
"We have an obligation to our veterans to give them the best care possible," Congressman John Barrow said.
Something that Barrow said did not happen for those veterans and others who waited months and months for colonoscopies and other medical procedures.
"When you start talking about a backlog that's hundreds of veterans in numbers, something's not working right. Somebody did not catch it," said Jeff Miller, Florida Representative and Chairman of the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs.
Miller led the group through the facility as part of an executive level briefing. A first step in learning what led to the problems.
"I know the director here has apologized for the deaths and injuries that have occurred. That was an appropriate thing," Miller said.
But last month Norwood Director Robert Hamilton stopped just short of holding specific individuals responsible for the deaths and delays.
"That's one thing the VA is not very good at and that's holding people accountable. They will move people around they won't fire people they won't discipline people," Miller said.
He says it had to be a management issue and however many are responsible they will be held accountable.
"Our goal here is to make sure what happened here never happens again," Barrow said.
Lawmakers say Monday's visit was the first in a series of inquires that will be conducted to determine those responsible for the previous backlog of medical procedures and those three deaths.
