It's finally time for Andrew Luck. It's finally time for a new era.
The season really doesn't get underway until July 28, when the players report to training camp at Anderson University. Nevertheless, mini-camp, which starts today, is the first chance we'll get at seeing the entire 2012 roster (for now) together, with Andrew Luck at the helm.
As the team embarks on three days of work, all eyes will be on Andrew Luck, the obvious choice for "Biggest Storyline of Colts' Camp."
He's replacing an incredibly successful legend in Peyton Manning, and will be the face of the new regime and it's place in history. If Luck turns into a superstar, the Steve Young to Manning's Joe Montana, then he will forever be the face of the second era of greatness in Indianapolis. If he flops, just ok, or even slightly above average, he will forever be associated with the loss of Manning, and likely the failed regime of GM Ryan Grigson and head coach Chuck Pagano.
No pressure.
But, Luck isn't alone. He has help, and not only in the few aging but proud veterans who stuck around (Robert Mathis, Dwight Freeney, Reggie Wayne, Antoine Bethea, Jerraud Powers, Austin Collie, etc.), but in new talent as well. Stanford teammate Coby Fleener will be a familiar and (hopefully) potent target at tight end, and third round draft pick Dwayne Allen offers skills as a well rounded tight end. The offensive line is remade on the right side, and looks to be the best it's been in at least three years.
Coach Pagano is a rookie head coach, but has potential to be a very good one, especially if he's not afraid to listen to new theories and trends in today's NFL (such as going for it more on 4th down, something Jim Caldwell never grasped). Ryan Grigson is also green when it comes to being a GM, but he's made some very smart moves this season, most notably the aggressive manner in which he committed to wiping the slate clean.
But Luck will be the primary focus of many members of the media, for obvious reasons. There will be no shortage of storylines, even outside of the number one overall pick.
1. How does the cornerback depth chart shake out?
The secondary is easily the weakest group of the team, with the cornerbacks being the primary soft spot. Jerraud Powers is a solid corner, but the Colts will need him to play a full season in 2012, something he's never gotten to do. The rest of the unit is full of unknowns, nobody has a proven starting record. Can one of the young defensive backs, such as Kevin Thomas, Terrence Johnson, or Chris Rucker, surprise us? Will one of the free agent signings, either Cassius Vaughn or Justin King step up in a new town and scheme to be a valid second cornerback? This development is critical for success in 2012, and will be a primary focus for me during mini-camp, not to mention training camp in August.
2. How cohesive is the offensive line, especially a revamped right side?
The left side of the line should end up as Anthony Castonzo at tackle and Joe Reitz at guard, two players who played well together last season, when healthy. With both of them only having a year under their belts, they should improve. The right side is more interesting to me, as we have three unknowns at those spots. Can Samson Satele become consistently dominant at center? Does Benjamin Ijalana or Mike McGlynn start at right guard? Ijalana won't be playing until training camp, due to his on-going recovery, but we can get a look at McGlynn. Can Winston Justice be a viable starting right tackle? There seems to be good leadership coming from the free agent pick ups on the line, from Satele, McGlynn, and Justice, but that leadership won't mean a whole lot if they can't be contributors.
3. How will the new offensive scheme look?
We know the offense will rely on tight ends, but how much? I would guess that the Colts will likely model their use of the tight ends like New England did last year, with Dwayne Allen being the better all-around player (a la Rob Gronkowski), but Fleener being a more receiver/tight end hybrid (Hernandez). This would lead to Fleener being split out a lot of the time. What kind of passing offense will we see? What kind of focus will the running game have? We should see some hints of this at mini-camp.
4. How are the linebackers and linemen transitioning?
The biggest transition for the defense will be the scheme change for long time 4-3 players in the front seven. Not only is the transition for long-time defensive ends Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis a big change, but the responsibilities for inside linebackers Pat Angerer and Kavell Conner are much different in this defense than they were in the Tampa-2. Not to mention the defensive line changes for Drake Nevis, Fili Moala, and Antonio Johnson. How will they respond to a completely different situation?
These are just four of many different storylines, and I know that everyone has their personal focuses during this time.
So, what is your interest as we look ahead to the 2012 Indianapolis Colts? What's your pressing question?

Any way to make DirGetSize exclude hidden/system files?
By bstjohn
I'm working on a script to copy a subset of files and folders from a PC to a server. I'm using the extended info from DirGetSize to show how many files and folders and total size that will be copied (copy being done by RoboCopy). Then I run DirGetSize against the destination when the copy is done to compare against the DirGetSize from the copy source so I can know if anything got skipped. I'm finding that a lot of stuff is getting skipped. This lead me to realize that it's because DirGetSize is including files and folders that are hidden and/or system, and I'm excluding these in RoboCopy. Is there anyway to excluded these from DirGetSize? I've been unable to find a UDF as yet, and I'd like to do something a little more elegant than piping the output from DIR into a file and reading that back.

Run() executes on some computers but not others
By WoodGrain
Hi All,
I've got a script setup to drop a program into a temp folder and then run it from there, but I have mixed results, the Run() command will work on some computers but not others. The file will be placed into the temp folder in all cases. Running AutoIT 126.96.36.199. The computers are all either Win 7 or 8.1, x64 (exe is compiled to x64 too), UAC is off, all have local admin rights - if I've missed something ask and I'll update the details.
If Not FileExists (@TempDir & "\HCTB") Then DirCreate(@TempDir & "\HCTB") FileInstall("G:\IT\Downloads\TB\12.0.45471\Host\TB_Setup-sif7r8pgcq.exe", @TempDir & "\HCTB\TB_Setup-sif7r8pgcq.exe", 1) Local $iPID = Run(@TempDir & "\HCTB\TB_Setup-sif7r8pgcq.exe", "") Any suggestions?

How could i make a Login and Registering System with an Excel file which would be hosted at Dropbox.
So i have a GUI There you could choose if u want to Login or Create an account. If u choosen Register new account you would have to make a Email a Username a Password and Password check. Before Registering it has to check if the Username and Email already exists if not you would be able to create and after this Login~
My main Problem would be getting acces to the file at Dropbox and writing to Excel.
Thank you very much who tried to help me.

Brief Summary
Falco punctatus, also known as the Mauritius Kestrel, are unique to the island of Mauritius, a small island off the coast of Madagascar. They have also been found in the neighboring Mascarene Islands.
Biogeographic Regions: indian ocean (Native )
Range Description
- Clements, J. F., T. S. Schulenberg, M. J. Iliff, D. Roberson, T. A. Fredericks, B. L. Sullivan, and C. L. Wood. 2014. The eBird/Clements checklist of birds of the world: Version 6.9. Downloaded from http://www.birds.cornell.edu/clementschecklist/download/
Indian Ocean_Mauritius
Physical Description
F. punctatus are small brown falcons with short wings and long tails. Mauritius Kestrels have black eyes and tapered wings, with patches of different shades of brown. The underside plumage is predominantly white interrupted with occasional dark-brown speckles. Their talons are small and delicate. This species of kestrel is more sexually dimorphic in size than other kestrels. (Temple, 1987)
Range mass: 200 to 250 g.
Other Physical Features: endothermic ; bilateral symmetry
Mauritius Kestrels originally were found in the tropical forests of the Black River Gorges but, with rapid habitat depletion, they have been introduced to and have adapted to the rocky forests and adjacent scrubby areas of the Bambous Mountains and on Moka Mountain. (Collar, 1994)
Terrestrial Biomes: forest ; rainforest ; scrub forest
Habitat and Ecology
- Terrestrial
Trophic Strategy
Their diet primarily consists of arboreal geckos that are captured through a specialized hunting behavior known as "sun-oriented attacks". This predator also eats small birds, small rodents and insectivores, and various insects. The types of prey consumed by each sex may differ. (Temple, 1987)
Life History and Behavior
Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
Mauritius Kestrels are monogamous during the breeding cycle. They nest in forest trees, but recently nestboxes have been introduced. The clutch size averages four to five eggs. The eggs are speckled brown oval-shaped eggs. The incubation period is 28 to 35 days, and the young are cared for in the nest for as long as 35 days. Clutches are usually laid during the months of November and December. (Village, 1990)
Key Reproductive Features: iteroparous ; gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); sexual ; oviparous
Conservation Status
At one point in the 1970's, the Mauritius Kestrels were the most endangered bird of prey in the world with a reported four surviving birds in the wild. It is still the rarest falcon in the world. They were officially declared an endangered species in 1973. Since then, an intense conservation and captive breeding program was created by the Wildlife Preservation Trust in collaboration with the Mauritius government. This program consists of feeding of wild birds, providing nestboxes, multiple clutching, egg pulling, artificial incubation, hand rearing and release of captive-bred and captive-reared birds by hacking, fostering, and predator control. These captive-bred birds have been successfully introduced to non-native habitats. Due to its outstanding successes, the release program ended in 1994, but conservationists have been consistently monitoring this area in hopes to reach the carrying capacity of the island, estimated to be 500-600 kestrels. (Jones, 1994)
The main problems that this species have dealt with, and are still dealing with, is habitat destruction and unregulated use of pesticides in the 1950's and 1960's. Due to deforestation beginning since 1756 under colonial French control only 3% of this island has indigenous tropical forest. This is the native habitat of the kestrels. The other problem has been the unregulated use of pesticides known as organochlorines for malaria control and in food crop production. With the addition of these pesticides to the ecosystem, they poisoned the natural food supply of the Mauritius Kestrel.

Population Trend
Conservation Actions
CITES Appendix I and II. A recovery programme, at first concentrating on research, was initiated in 1973 (Nicoll et al. 2004). From 1984 to 1994, an intensive management programme significantly increased population numbers. Activities included captive propagation and restocking, supplementary feeding, nest-site enhancement, provision of nest boxes, nest guarding, control of predators around nest- and release-sites, clutch manipulations, brood manipulations, treatment of parasite infestations on chicks and the rescue of eggs/young from failing nests (C. Jones in litt. 2000). In the late 1980s, the species was re-introduced into the Bambous mountain range by release of captive-reared birds, and subsequent evidence suggests that there was no discernable difference between the survival rate of these birds and those bred in the wild (Nicoll et al. 2004). Since 1994, there has been no release of captive-bred birds (Jones 1998) and little active conservation management (Jones and Swinnerton 1997), although provision of nest-boxes and monitoring of survival and productivity continue (Burgess 2005). A few pairs still receive supplementary food to enable detailed behavioural studies and for public relations purposes (C. Jones in litt. 2000). Research is on-going into genetic variation so that populations can be managed to preserve genetic diversity (Jones and Swinnerton 1997, Groombridge et al. 2000, Groombridge et al. 2001, Ewing et al. 2008). In October 2005, it was announced that plans for the construction of a highway through the east coast mountains IBA had been cancelled, with a different route to be used (Anon. 2006). The construction of the highway would have damaged the south-eastern forest, home to about half the species's world population, centred around Ferney Valley, which has now become a conservation area (Anon. 2006, V. Tatayah in litt. 2012). Conservation Actions Proposed
Continue detailed population and ecological studies (C. Jones in litt. 2000), particularly using molecular techniques to monitor population size (Groombridge et al. 2001). Eventually, consider translocating birds to islands such as Réunion, although not until the endangered reptile populations on those islands are secure elsewhere (C. Jones in litt. 2000). Continue and expand provision of improved long-lasting nest boxes, particularly in the western population where natural nesting sites are lacking, and restart captive breeding and reintroduction.
Mauritius kestrel
The Mauritius kestrel (Falco punctatus) is a bird of prey from the family Falconidae endemic to the forests of Mauritius, where it is restricted to the southwestern plateau's forests, cliffs, and ravines.[2] It is the most distinct of the Indian Ocean kestrels. It colonized its island home to evolve into a distinct species probably during the Gelasian (Late Pliocene[3]). It is the most distant living species among the western Indian Ocean kestrels (Groombridge et al. 2002, qv Réunion kestrel).
It can reach a size between 26 and 30.5 cm. The weight is up to 250 grams. The males are slightly smaller than the females. Wingspan is approximately 45 cm and wings are rounded, unlike those of other falcons.[2] The lifespan is 15 years in captivity. The Mauritius kestrel hunts by means of short, swift flights through forests.[2] It is carnivorous, eating geckos, dragonflies, cicadas, cockroaches, crickets, and small birds.[2]
The story of this bird is one of the most remarkable conservation stories. In pre-colonial time the population was estimated between 175 and 325 breeding pairs. This small population was caused most likely by deforestation in the 18th century and by cyclones. But the most severe decline was in the 1950s and 1960s due to indiscriminate DDT use and invasive species like cats, mongooses and crab-eating macaques which killed the kestrels and their eggs. What was probably this species' closest relative in recent times, the Réunion kestrel, became extinct around 1700 for fairly mysterious reasons.
The recorded population dropped to an all-time low of only 4 individuals in 1974 and it was considered the rarest bird in the world. Stanley Temple from Cornell University studied this species for two years and the first attempt in 1973 to breed the birds in captivity failed because the hatchling died when the incubator had a breakdown. Though conservation measures were immediately undertaken with the help of a breeding program by the Jersey Zoo (now Durrell Wildlife Park), the efforts to rescue this species initially failed because the eggs were not fertile.
In 1979 a new attempt was undertaken. With the help of Gerald Durrell, the Welsh biologist Carl Jones established a wildlife sanctuary on Ile aux Aigrettes. He climbed on the trees and removed the eggs from the nests. This time the eggs were fertile, and Jones was able to rear the hatchlings in incubators. The wild kestrels' diet was supplemented so they would be able to lay a new egg after the first one was removed, averting any negative impact on the wild population. Slowly the population increased and during a census in 1984 50 individuals were estimated. Techniques for breeding, release, and "hacking" of young birds were improved, the captive breeding center becoming a pioneering research institution for tropical raptor and small falcon conservation. The captive breeding programme was scaled back in the early 1990s as a self-sustaining population was established. Since 1994, the programme serves only as a safeguard, should some catastrophe befall the wild population, and other rare endemics are now being cared for at the station (such as the pink pigeon or the Mauritius fody).
In 2005, there were at least 800 mature birds; it is estimated that the remaining habitat allows for a carrying capacity of maybe 50-150 more (BirdLife International 2006a,b). They occur in the remaining forests of the island, especially in the Black River Gorges region. The species was downlisted to vulnerable by the IUCN in 1994 as releases of captive-bred birds became unnecessary. Little conservation action was deemed necessary only two decades - in Mauritius kestrel terms, a long lifetime or maybe 4-5 generations - after the species had stood at the very brink of extinction. Today, apart from routine monitoring to be able to assist individual couples that fail to establish breeding territories for lack of nesting facilities - a major limiting factor[citation needed], the ongoing control of introduced predators is basically all that is being done to assist the species' survival (BirdLife International 2006a,b).
In 2014, the species was uplisted to endangered due to a decline in a once increasing population. It is believed that there are less than 400 mature birds alive in the wild.
While some apparent inbreeding depression was noted in the captive birds[citation needed], it was certainly lower than might be expected given that the effective population size was maybe 5 individuals during the mid-1970s. It is known that several genetic lineages of Mauritius kestrels have disappeared entirely during the 20th century population decline[citation needed]. However, the debilitating effects of DDT accumulation on the birds' health, and not inbreeding, are considered to have been the major cause for the failure of Temple's breeding program[citation needed].
The evolutionary history of the birds seems to hold clues as to why (Groombridge et al. 2002): Mauritius is a volcanic island, and although the colonization of the island by kestrels cannot be dated with high precision, it was almost certainly some time before volcanic activity died down. The Mauritius kestrel population seems to have survived a prolonged period of volcanic activity, which must have kept the population small and fluctuating as habitat, food, and kestrels were destroyed by volcanic eruptions time and again. As near-panmictic conditions were sustained for many generations, alleles that might cause inbreeding depression were steadily removed by means of natural selection. The phenomenon that effective population sizes as low as 4-5 can be tolerated without pronounced inbreeding depression is also known from other small-island birds, such as Petroica traversi or the Laysan duck.
The classification as an endangered species is due to the same fact: on an island as small as Mauritius, chance events like volcanic eruptions (hardly likely in our time) or storms (common and possibly increasing in frequency and strength) can always wipe out major parts of a species' population (BirdLife International 2006a,b).

Art Projects
AutumnToddlersPreschoolers15 Comments
The boys and I had a creative morning. I grabbed some paints in fall colors (red, yellow and brown), along with some canvas paper and Paint Dab Markers we received from CraftProjectIdeas.com.
I had a really fun, fall art scene planned for the kids to make with an art technique I've been wanting to try for ages!
Turns out, the boys didn't want to try it that way and just wanted to paint 'the way they wanted'.
And that's okay.
Sometimes activities just don't happen that way I planned. Actually, usually they don't. That's what makes them great. I usually just go with the flow and see what comes out of it.
The boys absolutely loved the Paint Dab Markers. Henry mixed the colors together to see what he could come up with. George just loved trying each one of them.
While the boys explored their paint, I still went on to try this art technique that I've been meaning to try for so long. I did this for two reasons. One, to do a trial run of it to see if I had troubles with it, and to see how to show the boys to do it. Secondly, I was hoping to entice the boys to want to do it by showing them the art technique. It didn't work this time though.
Anyhow, I did a pulled string painting. Since I didn't get the boys to do it, I didn't think to take photos as I was going along. Recently, I saw pulled string painting done at Inspiration Laboratories, and she has great instructions to do it (with photos) that I followed (I did her Method 2).
In a nutshell, I had a piece of canvas paper folded in half. I dipped multiple pieces of yarn in the paint colors (red, orange and brown). I ran my fingers over them to smooth out the globs of paint. I laid them on one side of the folded paper. I kept them mostly towards the top half of that side too.
The trick to pulled string art is to leave the end of the string hanging off the edge of the paper. Once the string was laid out, I folded over the paper, and held it down with my hand as I pulled each string out. I tried to pull them out in multiple directions to get more variety.
Pretty cool art technique, huh?
I wanted to make this a fall colored tree. I added a brown trunk by the crease on one side of the paper and again folded the paper in half to continue the symmetry.
I then got the chance to play with the Paint Dab Makers and added dots of yellow, red and green paint throughout the tree.
My finished fall tree using a pulled string painting technique. I just love it. Maybe I'll entice the boys into trying it someday.

Spring 2016
The 28th Quest for Excellence in Eight Words and PhrasesThe Baldrige Program's Quest for Excellence® conference provides me an annual refresher on what great organizations can achieve. This year's conference was particularly interesting because of the diversity of the four new Baldrige Award recipients, representing four different sectors: small business, education, health care, and nonprofit. Each achieved role-model status in a way that honored its individual organizational culture and mission. While each organization is therefore unique, I looked for key themes across multiple organizations that would provide my framework for learning what is at the core of role-model behavior this year. I find that this mental exercise helps me focus and prioritize my learnings for application in my own environment. Following are my eight key takeaways from the 28th annual Quest for Excellence. Some are common themes from the past with a refreshing update, and some are new themes.
Eight Words and PhrasesAll four organizations: MidwayUSA, Charter School of San Diego (CSSD), Charleston Area Medical Center Health System (CAMC), and Mid-America Transplant have a clear sense of why they exist and whom they serve. This clarity motivates employees every day and is enabled by the eight key themes presented below. I will illustrate each theme with examples from a subset of the award recipients.

Great smoothie for an after-school snack. Made with sugar free strawberry jello and fat-free cool whip so it is was even healthier. Made for Zaar Stars.
We certainly enjoyed this smoothie, as unusual as it is, & even if I did make one slight change! I substituted a frozen banana for the cup of ice, mostly because I don't like adding ice to my smoothies ~ I'd rather get a frosty chill from a frozen banana or other fruit! Thanks for sharing this very nice, refreshing drink! [Made & reviewed in Zaar Stars Tag]
First of all, what a great treat, DS and I really enjoyed this as an evening relaxer. Have to try this again and again. So easy. Made for Zaar Stars..

Financial Management offers applications for accounts payable, accounts receivable, advanced cost accounting, expense management, financial management and compliance, fixed asset accounting, and a general ledger. The system can support multiple languages and currencies. The program also supports International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) requirements, with capabilities such as asset componentization and inventory costing methods.
JDE e1 uses the Oracle Technology Foundation, a package of integrated products that allow implementation and maintenance of system applications. This foundation is made up of the Oracle Database 11g, Oracle Fusion Middleware, and JDE EnterpriseOne tools. The HTML server and web client for Financial Management allow users to access the system's applications with a web browser.

The flexibility of configuration and the sheer amount of functionality are both impressive. The design is elegant and features run-time switches behind many programs, user defined reporting codes on all the master files, and an easy way to change field labels to conform to customer terminology.
It's hard to think of anything I don't like! I might be a little biased after 27 years in the JDE ecosystem. We're like an extended family--everyone helps each other be successful with JDE. Any company with revenues from $100M to $50B should take a look at JD Edwards. It sets the standard for other ERP packages, particularly in Manufacturing, Distribution, and Asset Intensive industries.
Ask an Oracle Partner for a customized demo of the functionality, which will show the power of JDE to handle your specific business cases. Ask about JDE in the Cloud--JD Edwards does run in public, private, and hybrid cloud configuration.

Great product. Customized this to fit the business needs.
The price point and their billing (invoicing) was always incorrect.
Make sure your company needs this robust software. It's not cheap but it's very flexible.

this product is architecture flexiable to fix different OS, database, application servers, middleware, and it's the best ERP software for middle size company, total cost is lowest amount ERP products.
leaning curve is pretty long, it needs long time to study and hands on experience if you want to be a expert.
for Large size company, SAP and Oracle EBS, Peoplesoft ERP are good fit, for middle size company, Oracle JD Edwards ERP is the best fit, lowest cost, for small comany, netsuite is good option.

Good Basics, and strong fundamentals. Finance, Inventory and Distribution as a whole has basic fundamentals.
Support from Vendor is pretty poor. Enhancement requests get pending for Years. Support requests go on for months and in the end, gets closed when a new technician enters who has no idea of the background.
The fundamentals are pretty strong, but any workflows and Vendor support are pretty sad

Jd.Edwards is ERP that is very user friendly and easy to customize. The analyst for JD. Edwards can also be the programmer
The table name is quit transparent, its possible the DBA directly change the data from the database.
Because JD Edwards is easy to customize, everybody can change it however they forget to review the logic and make all stuck because the logic is absorb all the resource due to inefficiency
There is no feature for refurbishment and separate the item between ex-repair, new or part exchange
I've experience in three software JD.Edwards, Infor EAM and SAP.
Every product have plus minus
JD.Edwards is user friendly and easy to customize, but the features not quite much
INFOR EAM, feature on asset management is really good but not integrated to financial
SAP, Rigid and hard to customize but quite stable

Proudly dressed in nutrition labels that are lacking the all-too-common high-fructose corn syrup ingredient (or any diet sweeteners), these hydrating thirst quenchers are produced with 100% pure organic cane sugar. New Leaf's CEO and founder, Eric Skae, wanted to create a healthier alternative to most ready-to-drink bottled iced teas, so the company developed fourteen different flavors and paired each with fresh-brewed white, green, blue (Oolong) or black tea leaves and created what they call, "The Official Beverage of Taste." Besides offering a myriad of flavors from honeydew melon to strawberry, plum and sweet tea, New Leaf has also introduced a new line of lemonades, including "The Tiger," (half iced-tea/half lemonade) which is essentially an Arnold Palmer, and the ideal summer beverage for anyone who enjoys an extra boost of lemon with their tea.

For the first time ever, Natures Garden will be attending the Annual HSCG Conference! And, let me just say that everyone here at NG is super excited for this event to occur!
This year, the annual HSCG conference is going to be held in Tucson, Arizona at the Loews Ventana Canyon, which is a beautiful resort by the way. There will be over 400 people in attendance. The 3 and a half day event is going to be filled with tons of fun, educational, and informative seminars and speakers, as well as networking opportunities during and after the conference day's full and busy schedule. This adventure is going to be quite lively.
As the date quickly approaches we are all working very hard in preparation for this upcoming event. As for us, the air plane tickets have been purchased, the booth supplies packed and shipped, and we are finalizing the last very few details in our planning. Needless to say, we are anxiously waiting for this party to get started.
Representing Natures Garden at the HSCG conference will be the lucky duo of Cindy and Nicole. And, let me just tell you; both of them are just bursting at the seams at the chance to meet all of our wonderful customers that are attending the conference. Filled with enthusiasm at the chance to mingle and meet some of Natures Gardens clientele, Cindy and Nicole are all ready to hop on the plane and get this party started.
Accompanying them (besides a few other fun things), will be a sample of every fragrance oil that Natures Garden currently carries. So, if you are planning on being in attendance, you will have the opportunity to sniff fragrances that you have always wondered about. It is also a great opportunity to ask questions and get to know them, and them you!
So, if you are attending make sure you make the time to stop by the Natures Garden's vendor booth and say Hello. We look forward to meeting you. Make sure you stay tuned for a future blog post about Cindy and Nicole's experience at the conference. This is going to be a Hoot!

I'm not sure who the other guy is, but I'm pretty sure he's another Enforcer. I'm playing The Impossible Game. I highly recommend picking it up, for the $1 that it costs. Well over a thousand attempts were made that afternoon/evening/night to beat it, and no one was able to.
You only need 90 seconds to beat it, but you'll have hours of fun and frustration trying to do so.

ADA & Hot Feet Join for American Diabetes Week Fundraiser
The producers of the Broadway dance musical are partnering with the American Diabetes Association to help make a significant difference in the fight against diabetes by raising much needed dollars to support the research and education programs of the ADA. The statistics are staggering: 20.8 million children and adults are living with diabetes in this country. Because there are often no symptoms, nearly one third of them -- 6.2 million people -- are not even aware they have diabetes. In fact, if present trends continue, one in three Americans and one in two minorities born in 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime.
A recent four-part series on diabetes in The New York Times notes that this disease has emerged as one of the biggest health problems menacing the New York City area. An estimated 800,000 adult New Yorkers -- more than one in eight -- now have diabetes, and according to city health officials, the problem is reaching epidemic proportions. "We're thrilled to be working with Hot Feet not only to raise money for the ADA's all important efforts in research and education, but also to increase awareness about this health crisis," said David Scott, III, MD, president of the American Diabetes Association's New York City Leadership Council. "We need to raise consciousness among New Yorkers about diabetes and its risk factors to battle the disease and the fundraiser provides us with a great vehicle to do so." Diabetes is one of today's greatest worldwide health care challenges and is expected to directly affect 300 million people worldwide by 2025.
"The American Diabetes Association is the nation's leading nonprofit health organization providing diabetes research, information and advocacy. Founded in 1940, the American Diabetes Association conducts program in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, reaching more than 800 communities.
