My dad is in the middle stages of alzheimers. He talks, walks, smiles, makes jokes, loves playing guitar and singing, but unquestionably gets confused a lot, his speech is obviously impaired, and he started forgetting our names. He also has mood swings, which is expected with this. My mom feels he should go into a nursing home but I strongly disagree. At this particular point I feel he needs assisted living, not at all 24 hr. nursing care. I am at my wit's end trying to convince her otherwise, and feel although she loves him, she doesn't want to deal with this - hence the nursing home at this stage. Am I wrong in wanting him to stay out? She refuses to have him stay with me and my husband and kids, even though we've basically begged.READ MORE
Hi, Jennifer,
You may want to explore whether there is a continuing care retirement community in your area. This type of community, which has both assisted living and nursing home facilities, might be a way to get agreement with your mom.
Take care and keep us posted!
My father too has mid stage alzheimers and I have been in your shoes up until last month, when the disease became too much for my mom to handle, and she had a heart attack and is now gone. She had repeatedly mentioned to me that he was getting too much for her, and wanted him to be put in a nursing home. They were married 61 years, and I didn't feel he was ready for that. I attempted to request home health care and/or assisted living, but she wouldn't have anything to do with that. It seemed it was all or nothing, and one of the last things she said to me was it was him or her. I now live with so much guilt, torment and unanswered questions. In that past month my father went from a nursing home (where she put him), to an assisted living (where I put him and I love, but they want him to leave due to too much wandering in other rooms), and now am considering either home care or a nursing home again. I am all alone in this mess, and between raising a daughter, taking care of two homes now, working full time and dealing with a declining father, I'm about ready to go insane. My advice would be to listen to your mother. She lives with him and knows him better than anyone. You may be mad at her for what she chooses to do, but I have now walked in my mother's shoes and regret not having her around anymore and maybe not completely understanding what she was going through. My prayers are with you and your family.READ MORE
Carol got a point. I also forgot to mention that these kinds of elders cannot be moved frequently. Each move to a different environment will cause him stress and effort to get adjusted. So the move should be as less as possible. Sometimes if you have to move him, it is OK, but try to avoid the times of moves. If you have to move him again from your home, it will be quite difficult and emotional.
Take care,READ MORE
Thank you everyone for your input. The problem now is mom is refusing to put him anywhere but a nursing home. So, he has been 100% de-toxed off the overdose he had been given of wellbutrin ( which caused the awful moods - no fault of his own - the psychiatrist he was seeing did this - and everyone agrees it was a massive error in judgment, to up someone's meds so much - so quickly), and is still in the psychiatric facility because mom doesn't want him coming to stay with us. Mom is living with us now, so it wouldn't be just me, it would be me, her and my husband. He goes to work, but we could work out a schedule so some days I am with my dad and my mom watches my kids, and vice versa. Everything would be on a schedule, just like I have with my kids everyday. I can take him to a local senior center, day trips, movies, etc. and mom can visit friends he wants to see when it's "her" days. But, mom refuses. Mom repeatidly refuses to even discuss this. She wants him going directly into a nursing home. Not into assisted living, not to even try it first, when it's obvious a nursing home at this stage makes no sense. He will definitely need one, just not right now, so why on earth do that to someone? I find that awful. That is what is killing me. To not even try assisted living at all? Why? My father walks, talks, gets dressed, showers, makes jokes all the time, and his huge fault was a psychiatrist tripled his dosage of wellbutrin which caused him to become psychotic. The dr. at the clinic said that is the reason he behaved that way. He was put into a facility/clinic to de-tox off it - which he has. He should be gone by now! The longer he stays in a psychiatric unit for the "crime" of having alzheimers - the longer he will adjust and I fear become much worse much faster, due to his surroundings. I think mom was so traumatized by how he was behaving when he was psychotic, due to the overdose, that even though he is de-toxed completely - she does not want to risk it - even though he's not on the medication anymore! I visit a lot. I even come with my kids ( they are 1 and 2 and don't realize what is going on - they just love seeing grandpa and he adores them ), we stand by a side window so he can see them, and I take turns with mom going in to visit him, as one of us watches the kids. I know this email sounds nutty - but the combo. of not letting him stay with us - and then not even TRYING assisted living - just straight to a nursing home once he leaves this place - I find that aspect awful. 80% of people with alzheimers, esp. in my dad's stage - the middle - not the end - the middle - live with family. I am his daughter, I love him, my husband and I want to help - we want to - and mom is refusing. We have limited financial resources - but we can provide a loving home, understanding, we will do anything it takes to adjust to his lifestyle - learn anything necessary to make it easier for him - and we know this would be temporary, of course - but at least give it a chance. Let him have some happiness before mom carts him into a nursing home prematurely. Usually you have situations where someone does NOT want to help - but we do. At my wit's end. What further upsets me is my friend's father has alzheimers, as well, but he's wheelchair bound, totally immobile, can't do anything for himself, and he was just put into ASSISTED LIVING 2 weeks ago ( he also had a stroke ). My dad is nothing like that - and he goes to a nursing home right away? HUH?READ MORE
Hi Jennifer, Thanks for responding to my replies. It seems indeed he could be living at home or goes to an assisted living home. I mean, he can even take a shower! later on, he would not want to touch water or get a shower!! Since no one really knows how long the process of going downhill will take, being at home certainly is possible. But since your Mom has the scare, maybe you can ask the nursing home to do some evaluation first and they will tell you if it is too soon for him. e.g., for some assisted living home for mid-stage AD will say early Alzheimer's is too early. But perhaps you can ask the nursing home or assisted living home's administration people to explain the difference to your Mom and make her see the light.
Also, you need to get your Dad out of this psychiatric facility ASAP!! From what I have known from other cases in this site and others, the elders with AD will suffer more in the psychiatric facility due to medications and cold confusion/environment. Unlike the assisted living home or even nursing home, the mental hospital like any hospital does not provide any memory support or recreation programs. It is a no no, even a nursing home is better.
Maybe you can get him to go to a nursing home first to get him out of this mental facility and then you guys can decide what to do permanently or more permanently.
Ask some professionals to talk to your Mom and explain to her the different options. A social worker can help too.
Take care,

Hi Nina. We desperately want my dad out of this psychiatric facility but my mother doesn't because she doesn't want him coming back to stay with us ( and her ), even temporarily. It is at the point where I wrote my dad's doctor ( the head psychiatrist within the facility ) a note, saying my husband and I are more than willing to help and it seems our main obsticle is my mom. I can't believe I did this, mom and I have always been so close, but this is how strongly I feel about this being wrong. I told the dr. to please call me. If I don't hear from him by tomorrow I will call. I must meet with him. If this man can give me one reason why my dad is still in this facility aside from my mom saying he has no other place to go ( which isn't true - we want him to come to us ), then I want him to be released. It's not as if I will just let him fend for himself. We will plan a schedule, like I said before. I feel for whatever reason mom is not thinking correctly about this - even though I know she loves him. They've been together nearly 50 years, high school sweethearts. Either she genuienly feels she is doing what is best for him - or is not admitting to herself that she doesn't want to deal with this at all.READ MORE
Hi Jennifer,
Sometimes your Mom may have problems. How old are your parents? Your Mom may have her own medical problems or even some dementia as you never know. Maybe she has other issues like mental issues. Not that it is her fault or anything. Who is your Dad's Power Of Attorney for health or guardian? This will take longer time, but if you get the guardian for your Dad instead your Mom as his POA, you can do whatever you want about your Dad, but it certainly would hurt your Mom.
I am sorry you have to deal with this. Please try to talk to the professionals such as social workers or attorney or health care professionals to see how you can help them out.
Regards,READ MORE
The thing is medicare A/B allows the elder to be transferred from the hospital directly to a nursing home with a short period of paying with medicare (5 months or less.) Perhpas your Mom is thinking of this option (if he is in the hospital more than 4 days.)
Anyway, once the doctor says OK, get him to anywehre for now in order to avoid a fight with your Mom directly. One elder's trouble is enough...
Good luck,READ MORE
Hi again. My mom doesn't have any medical problems at all. Infact, she's in fabulous physical shape. Mom is in her 60's, so is dad. She looks half her age, infact. Emotionally, though, there is no question she is depressed about dad. Who wouldn't be? We all are. Dad definitely will need a nursing home, but I strongly feel it shouldn't be now. I am going to call the director of the clinic dad is currently at ( I already left him a note but haven't gotten a call yet ) and ask for him to meet with us (mom and I ) so we can both voice our views. I can't imagine mom would say no to this. If she is so sure dad belongs in a nursing home directly the clinic, there should be no issue in talking to the social worker there or the director, to see his professional opinion. I love my mother very much, and I adore my father more than words can say. We've always been such a close family - and I hate being so angry at my mom. I just feel what she is doing is wrong, but it's so hard to believe she views it that way. Thank you for your advice - and taking the time to read my novel's length emails.READ MORE
P.S. Nina: money is a huge factor in this. He can be transferred directly from the facility he's in to a nursing home with medicare. But......even though it's very hard to find a place in new jersey to accept medicare, there are a few places, and many more in new york that would. Months ago mom said there is a beautiful facility in Princeton, NJ that shockingly accept medicaid. But, all of a sudden she isn't even attempting to put him there. JUST a nursing home. I am stopping with the emails for now. I could go nuts myself talking about this! I just want what is best for my dad, who was always a wonderful father to me, and I feel just sitting back and not doing anything would be wrong. I have to try for him. He deserves it, to say the least. Thanks again for reading my rantings.....you are wonderful.READ MORE
Hi, thanks for the reply.
One thing is certain: if your Mom is afraid of him (sounds like that now,) you cannot really make her see the way you see things. Perhaps if she could, could she stay away a little bit while you get your Dad home? (If this works out this way.) I can see that the living arrangement may be difficult. Maybe she can stay with your other relatives for a while until your Dad settles down in your home. You cannot force her to deal with him right away esp. after she was badly hurtly by him mentally.
Just my 2 cents,
NinaREAD MORE
Hi Jennifer,
I realized you are talking about putting your Dad in your house as a private home with your assistance. I think if you plan well with many helps, it could be done. But you need to be aware that at times, when he gets confuse, he may take up your baby and walk out and get lost due to confusion. So you need to have a babysitters or caregivers (for both babies and your Dad) at the same time. Since you have no idea when your Dad will act up, someone else has to help you. Your husband needs to handle the babies or your Dad depending on the situation. You cannot expect to do this without your husband's help. If you are home with the babies and your Dad, it is too much. Now he could be at home alone but sometimes he would go to the neighborhood and causes panic among the neighbors and they could call the police for help.
Unless you get all the manpower and help, you need to realize this is not a simple task. Your Mom could not handle him does not mean that you can do better. Also in the beginning, you may be the caregiver as his daughter. As time goes on and he gets sicker in later stage, he would also mistake you as his wife and causes more problems. He may want you to do the things your Mom did as a lover. I don't know if your Mom and you are in the same state, but you will have to consider all possiblities.
I hope your Dad will not need psychiatric unit anymore.
Take care,

Hi Jennifer,
Nina has just been through this and has some very good advice for you. As much as you love your dad, your mother has a point, but assisted living - with a memory unit so he stays safe, since you never know when he could start to wander - seems like a good idea. And, as Nina says, many good ones (nursing homes, too) have long waiting lists.
Also, once your dad moves in with you, if it doesn't work out, you could have a real battle with moving him out and then you will really feel horrible. Assisted living seems to make sense, so he has the most independence he can have, but everyone stays safe. Can you imagine how terrible he would feel if he hurt one of your children? He wouldn't want that if he could be logical. Please consider a middle option, since you want him in your home and your mom wants him in a nursing home. She's living with him, so she knows him. She may not be aware of any option but a nursing home.
Good luck with this. You need your brain as well as your heart to cope with this tragic disease.
CarolREAD MORE
I also want to add that a good assisteld living home may need a waiting list. We waited 7 months and finally we got the space this July. This kind of thing needs planning.
Sometimes it is the confusion in Alzheimer's patients, it is not about the medications. It is the other way around: the elders with Alzheimer's cannot cope with the confusion and thus the doctor gives him those drugs. My father-in-law has just been given anti-depression drug again yesterday after he stopped taking it in 2007. He took Alzheimer's drugs for a year and half but the doctor stopped it in late 2008 due to too much confusion. Althought he never went to any psychiatric unit, he has had many funny mental blowups. e.g., he wants to die thinking the nurses could kill him or we can kill him with a shot. He insists he wants to work with my husband, but it is never true. He insists on wanting a wife (his wife died in 2004.) He is still asking for impossible things. We are always worried that he may have psychotic reaction and may go to the psychiatric unit one day. We sure hope not.
One thing for sure is to deal with the elders with Alzheimer's needs lots of different skills: distraction or redirection. Never argue with him in his face badly (only gentlely reason with him.) Allow him to do what he wants within reasonable boundary. They have sundowning so at sunset, you need to turn on the light in the house. Give them something to do... The hardest part is how the family copes given these special techniques. I have to say the in home care agency we had hired helped us a lot because the home care nurse knew about Alzheimer's, not that we agreed with one another totally.
Alzheimer's is a tricky disease and it is hard. Don't assume the problems can be easily resolved. Just because they stopped the drug, it does not mean your Dad will not blow up again.
Take care,
NinaREAD MORE
Dear Jennifer,
I understand this is difficult for your mother. Since she is the main caregiver, she probably knows what she is talking about. First of all, you need to realize that your Dad may endanger others and himself, so with the babies at home, you may not be able to take him in either given his unstabe mood and being in this psychiatric place.
My father-in-law has late stage of Alzheimer's so I know what these elders go through given Alzheimer's. Everyone is different and your Dad seems to have a hard time to deal with it and he gets very anxious and psychotic. My father-in-law has now just moved to an assisted living home for mid-stage or late stage of Alzheimer's. This home is special in that they allow some sort of nusring care (with no feeding tubes but catheter is ok.) He could stay there until the end.
Before he moved, he had stayed home alone for 5 years with home care CNAs (certified nursing aids and caregivers.) It is expensive to pay for 24 hours home care, so this home is more economic. Also he forgot a lot (he forgot his sons in details but he still sort of knows my husband.) We had exhausted all the avenues at home and in the end he was almost dying at home. But after we moved him, he revived again and is eating well again in the new place.
An assisted living home for dementia is a controlled environment so he would not get lost in 24 hours and it is safe 24 hours. There are health care people in the home 24 hours.
I would suggest that you talk to your Mom. The assisted living home may accept him (not the regular assisted living home because he needs a controlled environment.) Note that some asssisted living may not accept him given his moods. Maybe that is why your Mom mentioned nursing home. Well, if no assisted living home accepts him, then the nursing home is an option although the skilled care home is more like an institution/hospital. The assisted living home is like a home with nursing care.
Before you consider moving him to your home, please consider the potential problem. My FIL is a gentleman and never had psychiatric episodes (never went to any psychiatric unit at all.) But it sounds like your Dad has lots of problems emotionally. It is a danger for your family. Unless you can make sure your house can separate your babies from him who might be in a bad mood, and you hire some part-time help (CNAs or caregivers), you would have a hard time to deal with him. Note my FIL looks normal outside so it is tricky that no one realizes he is in late stage. Same thing for your Dad, on the outside, it is tricky and you may think he is OK. But when he gets psychotic in your home, you will have a hard time to deal with it and then you may still need to send him to a nursing home.
Only you and your Mom know your Dad best, so please consider all options before you make a move. Frankly one always wishes to keep the elders at home as much as possible. But you also need to figure out if the private home is really good for him. At times, a nursing home or assisted living home can provide some respite and structure for the sick elders. Of course, there is also a potential that he may blow up in the nursing home and end up dying fast. It all depends on how he copes with it.
Please keep posted and let us know how we can help.
That is wrong! If you want to be able to spend time with your dad and she wants to send him away why does she care who he stays with? If it is one very close to you like less than 15 minutes away, then I guess. But there are meds that help slow that process. Have you looked into this in great detail?READ MORE
I have 2 babies at home and she doesn't want to take a chance of anything potentially happening. Even if it's a small chance, she doesn't want me to risk it with the babies. Different people give her different advice ( doctors, social workers, etc. ). My dad had been given an overdose of wellbutrin a few months ago, and as a result acted out in angry ways, which scared my mom for her physical safety. He made comments like " I will hit you if you don't stop " and once shoved her in an airport, into a chair. He has no memory of this at all. My dad normally is a very gentle, sweet person, the direct opposite, but the overdose of meds made him act this way. He is in a psychiatric facility now, has been for a month, de-toxing off the medication he was given too much of. For 3 weeks he hated my mother, inexplicably, was obsessed with her, in a negative way. They have been together nearly 50 years - all each other knows - first loves, etc. He is clearly de-toxed now, loves my mom again, asks what happened, why they haven't spoken in weeks. Mom is afraid to live alone with him, afraid of possible mood swings. I offered, thinking I can handle it, but mom refuses because she doesn't want us to be put in that situation with 2 babies, and god forbid something "bad" happens while my husband is at work - what will I do? That is how she feels. She loves my dad, he's her whole life, but I'm worried he will be put into a facility too soon. He def. needs assisted living, but not nursing home care 24/7. Mom feels his potential to wonder makes him a definite candidate -READ MORE

Sorry for replying so late. I think that given the airport situation for example, and the young children, being in a nursing home that is independent (but has people who check up on them, take them places, et cetera, known as assisted living) called assisted living is a good idea. That is what my mom's mom is in, by choice. However, perhaps this is too independent for your dad, God forbid something happen to him while no one is watching him. God bless and good luck. Stay close to him whatever you do, cherish him still being alive! Make sure the little ones get to see their grandpa enough :) <3READ MORE
It is important that your mother know that it was out of her husband's control. A man who has been happily married to a woman for 50 years does not intentionally hurt his wife, it is not like he wants to do that to her and of course he does not remember, hello Alzheimer's disease :/ (on my dad's side my grandparents got passed their 50th also and I think on my mom's side they did too, both grandpas have passed but I still have both of my grandmas :) congratulations to them for making it to their 50th anniversary!) Again, I think assisted living might be a good idea, but only if his wife visits him frequently when others are around of course so she feels safe and you, your husband, and children come to visit often enough as well (but that is your business). That is what I think would be best. Or you could get your mom a body guard as a nanny for them... but I think the assisted living and what I said above, is a practical and good plan.READ MORE
Hi. My Dad was 88 and in the mid stages of Parkinson's when we had to make a decision about what to do...my brother was on the verge of a nervous breakdown after caring for him for almost 3 years. He had a similar problem with Dad when the Dr. overmedicated him with dopamine...Dad developed extreme anxiety and scared my brother's girlfirend by grabbing her arm and also kept wanting to leave the house to go "home" to the town where he grew up.My older brother who works in a hospital lab finally figured out that that was probably the problem. At one point he ended up in a nursing home for "rehabilitation" but he was again overmedicated and almost died..be very careful of anti-psychotic drugs..I believe what Dad had left of his memory. He was on seroquel and several other drugs, but it appeared that the seroquel had a very detrimental effect. He had a lot of trouble sleeping..basically wouldn't sleep for more than a couple hours at a time...this can take an extreme toll on the family. I think God was watching out for us, because I came upon an intermediate care facility called Hillenvale..a part of a group of intermediate care facilities called Emeritus.
Compared to most nursing homes..it is an exceptionally nicer environment, kind staff, and the residents are kept up and in the living area in a routine througout the day and their rooms are more like a nice hotel room.Physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists come in with a script from the dr., and they get three meals and three snacks a day. There are several couches in the living area and a big screen tv..it's a very homey place and is secure...the residents either have alzeihmer's, Parkinson's , or dementia..it's called a memory care unit.It's not paid for by medicare, but the cost is around 3,500/mo. a lot less than most nursing homes. My Dad's va benefits covered part of it which was a good thing, because my brother needed to stay in the house for a while.They told me he should be able to stay there for the rest of his life unless he needs a feeding tube.. I'd advise you to make sure there is a medical power of attorney paper signed just in case you need it.READ MORE

|The wildland-urban interface fire problem - Current approaches and Research Needs
|March 01, 2010
|Wildfires that spread into wildland-urban interface (WUI) communities present significant challenges on a number of fronts. In the United States the WUI accounts for a significant portion of wildland fire suppression and wildland fuel treatment costs. Methods to reduce structure losses are focused on fuel treatments in either wildland fuels or residential fuels. There is a need for a well characterized, systematic, testing of these approaches across a range of community and structure types and fire conditions. Laboratory experiments, field measurements, fire behavior models can be used to better determine the exposure conditions faced by communities and structures. The outcome of such an effort would be proven fuel treatment techniques for wildland and residential fuels, risk assessment strategies, economic cost analysis models, and test methods with representative exposure conditions for fire resistant building designs and materials.

I purchased the bench on sale and it was a great value and the construction is decent for the price. I selected the coral and was expecting a more muted pink like on screen, but it is definitely not a coral...it's more like a bright pink. I purchased it for my bedroom, but I may have to move it to another area because it's just too bright. My walls are teal and linen colored so the coral would have given it a nice pop...it's just too bright though...so buyer beware. Coral is very bright!

Year opened: 1966
Capacity: 3800
As part of the Lincoln Center for Performing Arts, this venue dedicated to ballet and opera first opened in 1966, replacing the original Metropolitan Opera House that opened in 1883 on Broadway, but was too small for advancing technology and stagecraft. It has a total of 4,000 seats, making it the largest purpose-built opera house in the world.

The Metropolitan Opera 50th Anniversary Gala
May 7, 2017
September 26-October 27, 2016
A tale as old as time, (or at least one thousand years) Tristan and Isolde has long been considered the ultimate tale of passionate, romantic love in forbidden circumstances. With its universal theme of all-consuming love and bitter-sweet tragedy - it fits perfectly into Wagner's repertoire of epics. This new staging from Mariusz Trelinski promises to capture the power and pain of this ancient love triangle, in a large scale production, that brings the action into modern times, beginning on a lavish passenger ship in the Irish sea. Starring Nina Steeme and Stuart Skelton, conducted by Sir Simon Rattle.
September 27, 2016-May 11, 2017
The ever enduring Don Giovanni returns to the Metropolitan Opera. Mozart's libertine philanderer is cast in a decidedly darker light in this staging, whose story of unavenged justice incorporates tragedy and black comedy, as well as the supernatural elements which ultimately downfall. Giovanni is no misunderstood hero in this production, which was created by acclaimed British director and producer Michael Grandage.
October 18-November 12, 2016
Rossini's final masterpiece is this epic tale of oppression and power and how one man takes on the might of the 13th Century Austrian occupation at great cost, both physical and emotional as Gessel, the Austrian Governor places Tell's own son in the firing line. With a rousing score that evokes the rumbling of storms and joyous merriment, this triumphant opera is truly a thing to behold!
October 28-November 17, 2016
The Metropolitan Opera present Leos Janacek's 1904 seminal opera for the first time in nearly a decade this season. Familial honor is at stake, as a well-meaning woman takes terrible action to ensure her step-daughter's future in this emotionally overwrought psychological drama that pushes the performers and the audience. Starring Oksana Dya and Karita Mattia and conducted by David Robertson.
May 7, 2017
The Metropolitan Opera invites you to celebrate their fiftieth anniversary in their Lincoln Center home with a magical gala featuring some of the biggest stars in opera, performing pieces from Porgy and Bess, Samson et Dalila and more, including their inaugural production, Samuel Barber's Antony & Cleopatra.

We have just passed through two periods of mourning, one national and one in our own Congregation. The first is, of course, Tisha B'Av. This is a very difficult day in the middle of the summer. The day is long, the weather is hot, and the prevailing mood is quite depressing, although hopeful.
I wanted to point out that I was extremely impressed by our congregation's response. Many men, women, and children attended our services, beginning with Saturday night, Sunday morning, and Mincha on Sunday afternoon. But it was more than just the attendance. The services were dignified and I felt a sense of deep feeling among the worshippers expressing the message of this day.
The other sad event in our shul was the passing of Mrs. Sylvia Cheses, z"l. There was a full period of Shiva at the home of Nechama and Aryeh Cheses. Again, I was gratified and impressed by the number of our congregants that faithfully came each morning to assure the minyanim taking place. The evenings were flooded with people, which was a great kavod to the late Mrs. Cheses.
"Those who mourn Jerusalem's destruction will merit to see its rebuilding." We have now entered the period of consolation of our people expressing the promise of a better tomorrow. It began with a "ti-yul" of a large number of our congregants and friends to a Red Sox game at Fenway Park last Wednesday evening. A wonderful time was had by all (well… except for the Red Sox losing to Detroit …) and our thanks go to Phil Rosen and all others who worked hard to make this project such a success.

Pool win and player choice
Well put Sfer, well put.
You'll note the 'pool don't defend 4+4, preferring to play attacking possession football.
We have done well against teams that play like this. We've got a fantastic squad of players and I haven't seen them once fall short of effort all season at WHL.
Hopefully Harry can find the key to unlock the points from lesser teams in the coming year.
They (the management team) will certainly have to make better use of the squad than they have this season if we get into the Europa cup, that's for sure.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Well I think you answered one of your own questions there Sfer - motivation. The team are up for it in the bigger matches but seem to approach lesser teams at a canter or maybe even treat them with a little contempt? It's almost a sort of 'we can beat AC and Inter so you'll be a walk over'.
The games against Young Boys said it all and should have served as a warning but on hindsight that doesn't appear to be the case. A minor tweak behind the scenes needed - maybe send big Joe in with an even bigger stick for a 'team talk' before we play lesser opposition :) Hopefully the whole team can learn from this for next season.
As regards King I'd be very sad if Spurs didn't show some loyalty towards a player who has been immense for us over the years and is as dedicated to us as virtually any other player in our history. I agree that we can't rely on him from a fitness point of view any more but I believe he has so much more to offer behind the scenes as well. If I was in charge I'd offer him a coaching / ambassador / player role whereby he's on a lower basic salary but with a good appearance bonus for those games where he is fit.

200,000 people are diagnosed with lung cancer in the United States each year, and nearly 90% of them will die from the disease as it is usually discovered at an advanced stage. Screening is an important tool in fighting lung cancer, because when it is found early, it is much more likely to be treatable.
The Cancer Institute's lung screening program is recognized by the Lung Cancer Alliance as a Center of Excellence. Based on this designation, we are committed to providing a high quality screening program that includes compliance with national standards on the most up-to-date best practices for managing screening quality, radiation dose and diagnostic procedures.
What is a low dose CT screening exam for lung cancer?
Low dose computerized tomography (LDCT) is a quick, painless exam done without any X-ray dye (or contrast). The CT scanner scans the chest using low doses of radiation to make a series of detailed pictures of the lungs.
Who should have a lung screening exam and when?
The goal of lung screening exams is to determine if nodules or masses are present in those patients who may not have symptoms but may be at risk for the disease. Smoking is the biggest risk factor for lung cancer. The risk of developing lung cancer increases with the amount and the length of time a person smokes.
The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends that people be screened if they meet all of the following criteria:
*A pack year is smoking an average of 1 pack of cigarettes per day per year (example: 30 year pack history by smoking 1 pack a day for 30 years or 2 packs a day for 15 years).
How often should I be screened?
Potential benefits and risks of lung cancer screening with low-dose CT scans:
The goal of lung cancer screening is to find cancer at an early stage. Identifying cancer early increases the chance that it can be successfully treated and possibly cured. Low-dose CT scans detect early stage cancer more accurately than other screening methods, such as chest X-rays.
Lung cancer screening with low-dose CT scans also has potential risks. The CT test can show "false-positive" results, suggesting that a person has lung cancer when he or she does not. This can lead to additional testing, anxiety for the patient, and increased cost. People also receive radiation during low-dose CT scans. Although the dose of radiation received during the scan is relatively small, radiation from repeated scans can cause cancer in otherwise healthy people. Lung screening may also detect abnormal findings in other areas of the body such as the thyroid, liver, kidneys and adrenal glands. This can lead to additional testing and costs as well.
How do I schedule this exam?
Call 678-312-3444 to schedule an appointment.
For more information or questions, contact Nancy McCormick, RN, BSN, Thoracic Nurse Navigator at 678-312-3189. Deciding whether or not to go through lung cancer CT screening is not easy. Visit shouldiscreen.com for up-to-date information provided by doctors to help you make an informed choice.

SDO Captures a Monster Solar Prominenceby Nancy Atkinson
The Sun continues to be active! A large-sized (M 3.6 class) flare occurred near the edge of the Sun on February 24, 2011, and it blew out a gorgeous, waving mass of erupting plasma that swirled and twisted over a 90-minute period. This event was captured in extreme ultraviolet light by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory spacecraft. Some of the material blew out into space and other portions fell back to the surface. Because SDO images are super-HD, the scienctists can zoom in on the action and still see exquisite details. The video above was created using a cadence of a frame taken every 24 seconds; still, the sense of motion is, by all appearances, seamless. Sit back and enjoy the jaw-dropping solar show. See one of the images, below.
Spaceweather.com reports that Earth was little affected by this blast, as plasma clouds produced by the blast did not come our way.
The latest active sunspot — #1163 — is currently behind the Sun's eastern limb, but be turning toward Earth in the days ahead, setting the stage for more activity if the eruptions continue.
Solar Dynamics Observatory, sun
Fantastik movie clip. With this quality it gets so intense and realistic. You can read about M3.6 (as i´m a hobby entusiast and normally not that into the tecnical aspect) but looking at the clip makes it so more real.
It will be fascinating to observe how the outbreak will be felt on earth if they continue and sent in our direction.
ooooh… new desktop…
I love how you can watch the infalling gas funnel into a convergence point on the surface that I can only guess is a magnetic focal point near the bottom of the frame. I'm no physicist and don't know the first thing about fluid dynamics or magnetic plasma interactions, but I imagine that sort of detail tells the scientists who do quite a bit. Plus, who can argue with the sheer beauty of the spectacle?
If I read the clock at the bottom correctly, the entire video covers about 1.5 hours. That's covering a large amount of space in that time frame.
The spacetime paradox of beauty: the larger the beauty, the less time have passed.

Inside the Paint with Zach Moritz
Due to some minor setbacks, the frequency of these entries had to take a backseat. However, for those interested, it'll be up-and-running more often throughout the season and hopefully provides some added engagement and insight for any and all fans. Be sure to check our homepage often and thanks again for your support. Now, back to basketball.
Week one of practice is done! The season is now officially rolling and with our first game looming (Oct. 29), you can imagine that our practices have been more concentrated and concise than ever. The 16 of us players have been held to an extremely high standard as of late and rightfully so. With our first real test ahead of us in Montana Tech, the energy and enthusiasm has been at a climax. All of us, players and coaches alike, are merging our mindsets in order to achieve success. And right now, success is defined by attention and adaptability on the court.
At this point in our practice progression a natural competitive separation is beginning to take place within the squad. Based on a combination of basketball ability and intelligence each individual player is being thoroughly analyzed. On a daily basis we are introduced with new offensive and defensive situational schemes. Now typically this part of the year would be a breeze for an upperclassman-laden team such as ours, and certainly some of us are handling the mental load better than others. But we all are still students of this new system. With many of us having to understand plays at multiple positions patience has been paramount. There is no doubt that we're making progress, however we're still in the thinking and learning stages and thus unable to intuitively react in a more fluid manner.
Make no mistake though, we will be ready. In a mock scrimmage just this past week we proved to ourselves and our coaches just how good we can be. Although many kinks were still noticeable upon film review, our skill sets and energy proved to be enough to make up for such initial setbacks. We are still relatively new to our roles within the ever-evolving system and our staff, but having seven seniors as a foundation has been big. It brings with it leadership, experience, focus and a willingness to be coached that I haven't seen during my five years here in Boise. Combined with the underclassmen's fire and excitement to prove themselves our practices are taking place with a perfect storm of competitive energy.
It was great to see not only the many familiar faces, but also the numerous unfamiliar faces at our meet and greet the other night. Having the support of the community is a huge confidence booster and will be crucial to our home-court advantage. I know we all look forward to restoring that sense of Bronco Basketball pride. And ultimately we thrive on your contributions for both immediate support as well as the longevity of our program's success. I am excited for our arena to be full of life again and am itching at the opportunity to establish our on-court presence once more. I hope to see many later on this Friday at the TBA.
Thanks for reading!

Definition of alcid in English:
A bird of the auk family (Alcidae); an auk.
Example sentences
- Usually you can expect to see great numbers of pelagic birds - gannets, shearwaters, jaegers, storm-petrels, alcids - that live mainly at sea.
- Closely related to the Tufted Puffin, the Rhinoceros Auklet is a large alcid with a wedge-shaped head.
- One would imagine this place to be a paradise of alcids of all types, guillemots, dovekies, puffins, razorbills, murres, and murrelets all splashing around in their black and white finery.
Late 19th century: from modern Latin Alcidae (plural), from the genus name Alca, from Old Norse álka 'razorbill'; compare with auk.

Here's another weird one:
Basically, I've got a category that includes "posts" and custom post types. I realized the pagination (using pagenavi) was only showing the amount of pages there would be if you were counting posts only. So I moved the pagination to be called after the "post type any" query and that fixed that.
But the final few pages, for some reason, aren't showing with my custom category layout.
I'm guessing this is because wordpress thinks it is done with that category, since it is only counting the "posts" in that category?
Is there some way to make it so it counts EVERY type of post in the category when figuring out this stuff? I'm not really sure where to start!

Fed Policy Expectations and Portfolio Flows to Emerging Markets
Robin Koepke
Institute of International Finance; University of Wurzburg
July 31, 2015
The empirical literature has long established that U.S. interest rates are an important driver of international portfolio flows, with lower rates "pushing" capital to emerging markets. On the basis of this literature, it is often argued that the Federal Reserve's imminent policy tightening cycle is likely to weigh on portfolio flows to emerging markets in coming years. The analysis presented in this paper offers a different interpretation of the literature, suggesting that it is the surprise element of monetary policy that affects EM portfolio inflows. A shift in market expectations towards easier future U.S. monetary policy leads to greater foreign portfolio inflows and vice versa. Given current market expectations of sustained increases in the federal funds rate in coming years, EM portfolio flows could be boosted by a slower pace of Fed tightening than currently expected or could be reduced by a faster pace of Fed tightening.

- Patch needs improvement unset
You're right to say that this ticket overlaps with #14675, but it doesn't make sense to fix half of the present issue and hope that #14675 will fix the other half at some point in the future.
The whole point of this ticket is to make the tutorial consistent with the default template for urls.py. That's why I chose to fix the import lines too. Otherwise, inconsistencies will remain, and even small inconsistencies are unsettling for newcomers.
Since there is no way to track dependencies between tickets in Trac, we can't enforce which one will be committed first... When either this ticket or #14675 gets committed, let's update the patch on the other ticket if necessary.

This sounds like a possible transmission issue, I would get it looked at by a good Volvo shop that can check the diagnostic information in the vehicle, check for technical service bulletins and make sure the software in the transmission module is up to date.
In Hawaii, I would imagine this means the dealer.

SIKESTON -- Ask Ed Adkisson what he'll have in stock at his store in a month, and he won't have a clue of any specific items.
The items in the Closeout Store, owned and run by Adkisson and his family, change significantly every two weeks as a tractor trailer load of closeout merchandise arrives.
"Sometimes we just order a trailer load and don't know what's in it," he said. "Other times, we'll specify 'domestic items' and receive items like bedding, bathroom, curtains and tablecloths."
Opened Dec. 1, all of the merchandise at the Closeout Store -- primarily name-brand -- is overstock, customer returns and shelf pulls from major department stores and is brought in on 53-foot trailers.
Many of the items are what are referred to as "shelf pulls," explained Adkisson. For instance, if there is a labeling or packaging change or minor alteration to a product, all of the old ones are pulled from the shelf and shipped to retailers such as himself.
"Probably 50 percent of the things we receive have never been opened," he said. However, the staff will open breakable items before pricing to make sure everything is OK. And he offers a 30-day warranty for all appliances -- which are also tested before they are put on the floor.
With so many items -- usually about 4,000 per truckload -- it generally takes about a week to empty all the pallets, check the items and price them, said Adkisson.
Because of that, customers come in every couple of days or weekly to check out the new merchandise to save dollars and get a great deal.
The employees have a good time going through the items, too.
"It's fun to dig into a pallet, because it's like Christmas every day," said Adkisson.
Adkisson's father, Bill, agreed. In fact, he said that sometimes it makes it hard to get work done. "We'll show it to everyone and say 'look what we found!'" he said.
The constant change in stock also has a bad side -- a customer may wait to purchase something and it may not be available when they come back. In fact, staff often see someone walk to the spot where an item was, to learn that it was a one-of-a-kind item and has been sold.
"If customers see something they like, we'll work with anyone," said Adkisson's mother, Peggy. If money is tight, for instance, they'll hold an item, as long as a customer gives a down payment.
Adkisson said the store has "something for everyone." It carries clothing, kitchen items, home decor, small furniture, bedroom decor, bathroom items, appliances, toys and tools. Within the next two months, he plans to expand the tool line and bring in some sporting goods items.
Some small furniture items, such as coffee tables, computer armoires and decorations for children's rooms and the home are also sold. Those are pre-
assembled, so customers take it home ready to display. "We want to make sure everything is there," said Adkisson.
There is also a section of the store where damaged furniture, with scratches or other problems, are available at even larger savings. Adkisson said those are popular items for students or others who are just starting out.
Adkisson said the pricing process is "interesting." Generally, customers will save between 50 and 80 percent, although some markdowns are as high as 90 percent of the retail price, he said. At times, items still have their original prices attached; which guides the process, however items are researched to guarantee great savings.
Customers are often "pleasantly shocked" by the prices. "They'll say, I wanted this really bad but I couldn't afford it... this makes it work,'" he said. "Of course everyone loves to save money and get great bargains."
The Adkisson family, which lives in East Prairie, researched a few locations before deciding to set up shop in Sikeston. Adkisson is now confident that Sikeston was the right choice.
"It serves many communities," he said, noting that people come from Mississippi, New Madrid, Stoddard, Scott and Cape Girardeau counties. "We felt Sikeston was a perfect place to serve those outlying communities."
He said the family thought the business concept to have a store this large and offering a great selection of inventory was unique. Adkisson researched the closeout industry for about two years before going into business.
"We wanted to have a store that carried closeout merchandise, but had good lighting, a clean building and a great location," he said. He and other family members said they think that's been accomplished.
Customers appear to agree. "It's been fantastic," Adkisson said of business.
He and family members were realistic when they made projections, but during the first month of business, they exceeded all of their expectations. Although sales have obviously slowed in January, after the Christmas rush, the owners are "very pleased with the hundreds of people that visit the store each week," said Adkisson.
The Closeout Store is located at 2022 East Malone and the phone number is 472-6207. Cash, checks and credit cards are accepted; business hours are 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday.

Carbon Motors Corp.'s E7 patrol vehicle makes an appearance outside the Indiana Statehouse in May.
Carbon Motors Corp. has announced it will use a former Visteon manufacturing site in Connorsville, Ind., to produce its E7 patrol car.
The company notified the Indiana Economic Development Corporation on Wednesday that the start-up would use the facility for its proposed headquarters and manufacturing operations. Carbon Motors intends to invest $350 million to site its production headquarters in the 1.8 million square-foot-facility. The company said it could create 1,500 jobs. The IEDC must resolve outstanding contingencies with the company before agreements are finalized, including site acquisition complexity brought about by Visteon's recent bankruptcy, latent environmental concerns at the vacant facility and finalizing terms of an agreement which will protect Hoosier taxpayers and give Carbon Motors the opportunity to effectively compete for federal funding. Carbon Motors said it will apply for a federal loan through the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program. Final selection of a manufacturing site is a condition for Carbon Motors to make the loan application. Such an award could expedite the job creation in Fayette County. DOE's program provides loans to automobile and parts manufacturers for the cost of re-equipping, expanding or establishing U.S. manufacturing facilities to produce advanced technology vehicles or qualified components. Carbon Motors, established by former Ford Motor Company executives in 2003, has developed the Carbon E7, a law enforcement vehicle which incorporates bullet-proof door and dash panels, radiation and biological threat detectors, an automatic license plate recognition system, integrated emergency lights and a clean diesel engine. Carbon Motors estimates the E7's 3.0 liter clean diesel engine could reduce law enforcement fleet fuel costs by up to 40 percent. Once agreements are finalized, the IEDC will announce the state's participation.

Is this the worst film *EVER*?
Bought the DVD thinking 'must give it a try as I love the books...It can't be too bad.... .' Oh what a mistake!
I have tried to watch it twice. The first time I got as far as the Heart of Gold and Zaphod & friends. The second time I got as far as landing on the planet Vogorth(?) Was this film really based on those wonderful books/radio play? It is more like a travesty of the original.
For those who have watched it and not read the books - READ THE BOOKS! They are brilliant.
For those who have read the books but not seen the film - DON'T BOTHER!

Southern Baptist ethicist Russell Moore and megachurch pastor Rick Warren, both speaking at a Vatican conference Tuesday, warned that Christians should not succumb to the current sexual revolution or waver on the Biblical truth about sexuality and marriage.
"Western culture now celebrates casual sexuality, cohabitation, no-fault divorce, family redefinition, and abortion rights as parts of a sexual revolution that can tear down old patriarchal systems," said Moore in a prepared statement given during the "Complementarity of Man and Woman" colloquium convened by Pope Francis.
"The Sexual Revolution is not liberation at all, but simply the imposition of a different sort of patriarchy," he continued. "The Sexual Revolution empowers men to pursue a Darwinian fantasy of the predatory alpha-male, rooted in the values of power, prestige, and personal pleasure … We see the wreckage of sexuality as self-expression all around us, and we will see more yet. And the stakes are not merely social or cultural but profoundly spiritual." more >>
In order to last in ministry, church planters need to adhere by certain guidelines that change the mold of how they build their church structure, said Pastor Rick Warren during the Exponential West conference this past week.
Warren addressed conference goers to utilize his experience as a leader in ministry of over 40 years. He told church planters that about half of them were not going to make it, according to statistics, unless they started doing something radical.
"You must be very careful how you build. Some build with gold, silver, precious stones even wood, hay and straw but the day will come when fire will reveal the quality of your work and if what you build survives, you will receive a reward," Warren said on Thursday of the three-day conference. more >>
Today, Pastor Rick and Kay Warren of Saddleback Church are hosting "24 Hours of Hope," a free global online event designed to encourage individuals living with a mental illness, educate and support their families, and equip church leaders for compassionate and effective mental health ministry.
On Thursday, Kay Warren talked to The Christian Post about what she has observed transpiring in the church community on the topic of mental health. Because of the family's high profile, CP asked Warren to talk about how the suicide of their son, Matthew, who struggled with mental illness, has impacted the church in the U.S. Matthew Warren died at the age of 27 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound on April 5, 2013.
Rick and Kay Warren hosted the historic gathering on "Mental Health and the Church" last March, which was also co-hosted by Bishop Kevin Vann of the Diocese of Orange, and the National Alliance on Mental Illness – Orange County (NAMI-OC). more >>
Bestselling author and Saddleback Church Pastor Rick Warren has given his blessing to two brothers raising money to create a video game series about David of the Old Testament. The California pastor called twin brothers Ruben and Efraim Meulenberg's project "a game-changer for families and gamers alike. The Game Bible is an incredible way to experience the stories of the Bible."
News about the game is also featured on his website Pastors.com.
The Meulenberg brothers, also known as the Tornado Twins, are both media artists and programmers. more >>
Best-selling author and pastor Rick Warren shared on Friday that his dad, Pastor Jimmy Warren, who would have celebrated his 95th birthday this week, helped shape his destiny with his final, dying words.
In a Facebook post that also included a photo of Warren at 4-years-old helping his dad construct a church, the founder of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California, stated that to understand why he does everything that he does, one needs to know the story of his father's church planting ministry and final days while dying from cancer.
"He never talked about the books he'd read, the movies he'd seen, or the war he'd been in. Instead, he dreamed aloud about building churches, reliving one building project after another," explained Warren about his dad during the last week of his life. more >>
Pastor Rick Warren said that his nearly 40 years in ministry have helped him learn how to benefit from opportunities by first asking a few questions to determine whether to take advantage of them or not.
