The House Judiciary Committee approved a tough new immigration bill that would make it a federal crime, instead of just a civil offense, to be in the country illegally.
The legislation is enforcement focused and passed by a 20-15 vote Tuesday night. The bill would give state and local officials the power to enforce federal immigration laws.
The passage comes as the Senate considers a bipartisan bill that opens the door to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants.
Democrats say the House bill is dangerous and disappointing, but Republicans say the measure is needed to ensure enforcement of the law.
The vote took place as a new government report showed the Senate's immigration reform bill would boost the economy by giving legal status to an estimated 8 million immigrants now in the country illegally.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said any immigration bill passing the House ought to have majority support from both Republicans and Democrats.
Setting the standard that high could make it tougher for the bill to pass.

Did Lord Moynihan believe that Mark Cavendish's World Championship ride was sullied by the vital support role of David Millar, the former doper? Perhaps he turned off his television in disgust at watching a cheat in a Great Britain vest.
Maybe, to borrow the unfortunate phrase Lord Coe once used when discussing Dwain Chambers competing for Britain, he "held his nose" at the stench that Millar must have brought to the team hotel.
If so, he was surely in a minority. Cavendish's victory has gone down as one of the great achievements in British sport in recent years and Millar,

NetStreams Networked Audio Distribution System- DigiLinX
American company NetStreams has announced a new line of distributed audio products, known as DigiLinX - a multi-room audio system distributed over an Ethernet network using TCP/IP protocol and providing web access controlNetworked Audio marks a fundamental change in the way audio is distributed and controlled in a multi-room system. DigiLinX is comprised of IP-based audio products networked to distribute audio and control signals over an Ethernet network, using TCP/IP to multiple rooms. Conformance to internationally accepted standard protocols assures easy and elegant interfacing with a wide variety of systems and products, and control via any web browser equipped device in addition to NetStreams keypads.Examples of interfaces that NetStreams believes will become popular with its customers are in-wall IP-based touch screen keypads, PDAs, web tablets, and PCs.'We are very passionate about high-quality music reproduction throughout the home,' said Herman Cardenas, founder and chief executive officer of NetStreams. 'Our vision of providing superior audio performance, simplified operation, seamless integration, and a plan for the digital future of whole-house entertainment is achieved with the introduction of DigiLinX.'Networked Audio offers completely scalable systems with virtually unlimited sources and zones, more choices of user interfaces through open communication (TCP/IP), easy integration with other home systems, even remote programming, troubleshooting and upgrades.The first DigiLinX products are comprised of several components: ' AudioLinX-IP-based set-top/rack-mount audio distribution/control center and sophisticated non-blocking Ethernet switch. An optional networked XM Satellite Radio Module is designed to fit into the Digital Expansion slot in the AudioLinX.' TouchLinX-IP-based 4' color touch screen keypad with an integrated web server, and 4- port Ethernet switch designed to interoperate with other DigiLinX products. A software upgrade will offer Voice-over-IP for room-to-room intercom and whole house paging. TouchLinX keypads will also display video from IP-based cameras.'

Due to the rain, there were quite a few reports of flash flooding. For example, in the Little Rock (Pulaski County) area...several streets were barricaded due to high water. Water flowed across Highway 294 near Furlow (Lonoke County) and Highway 300 around Perry (Perry County). A bridge was washed out at Amity (Clark County)...with water covering roads near Wilburn (Cleburne County), Mountain View (Stone County), and in several parts of Clark, Cleburne, Faulkner, Pike, Sharp and White Counties.
There was at least one flash flood death reported. A college student was driving through rural Izard County during the wee hours of the 14th, and tried to cross Piney Creek (5 miles north of Mount Pleasant). Normally, the creek is not a problem...but it was swollen and fast moving at the time he arrived. His vehicle was swept off the road, and he apparently drowned.

Favorite Quote: "Imagine yourself as a living house. God
comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand
what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the
leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing
and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking
the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem
to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is
that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought
of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there,
running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being
made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace.
He intends to come and live in it Himself."
- C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
A Note From Wayne: I am passionate about business because much
of what takes place in business is reliant upon relationships.
Establishing a sustainable relationship should be rooted in true
care and concern for another. Throughout the process of developing
a relationship, you learn about other people, their needs, their
joys, their worries, and you attempt to cater your gifts to their
work/life situations in a manner that is beneficial for all parties
involved. Business that is conducted well and for the right reasons
can truly change the world, one relationship at a time. I am
confident in saying this after meeting with so many business
leaders during my time with the Baker Scholars who care deeply
about what they do, but more importantly, for Whom they are doing
these things. Be bold with your actions, successes, and failures
because they will have an impact on not just yourself, but the
people who surround you daily, and people who you will never
know, provided that there is a real passion carrying you through
the day.

From Beverly Hills to Santa Barbara: Mericos Foundation Supports Gallium Nitride Research
Santa Barbara, Calif. -- The Mericos Foundation, headquartered in Pasadena, Calif., has given the College of Engineering at the University of California at Santa Barbara $700,000 to support gallium nitride research. Gallium nitride is currently the focus of one of the hottest areas of semiconductor research aimed at designing materials and making devices from those materials which harness the most energetic particles of visible light or photons.
At the center of that effort to make blue LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) and the blue laser is Japanese scientist Shuji Nakamura, who has just accepted a faculty appointment at UCSB's top-ranked Materials Science Department. Said Matthew Tirrell, Dean of Engineering, "The Mericos grant, bolstered by other contributions, will help Santa Barbara to outfit for Nakamura a state-of-the-art gallium nitride lab on campus. We are deeply appreciative of the Foundation's generous and timely response to our request for support."
Gallium nitride researchers at UCSB and elsewhere, according to Tirrell, tend to fall into one of two types‹material makers or device makers. "Not only," Tirrell noted, "does Nakamura do both, but doing both has enabled him to achieve stunning research breakthroughs."
Having pioneered a new technique for growing gallium nitride crystals, Nakamura used that technique to make the first blue LED by adding traces of another material, indium, to the gallium nitride crystals. By adding more indium, he then made the first truly green LED (leading to creation of huge full panel color displays now in use at sporting events and rock concerts).
Nakamura next coated his blue LED with a novel phosphor, thereby reaching a milestone in optoelectronic research with the creation of a white light emitting diode, likely to replace the incandescent light bulb invented by Edison in the 19th century. Incandescent lights squander most of their energy by putting out more heat than light. White LEDs will use 20 to 50 percent less energy to make light than the conventional incandescent bulb.
In addition to blue, green and white LEDS, Nakamura has also used gallium nitride to create the first blue laser. That invention translates into the very real possibility of a 35-fold increase in the amount of information that can be contained on a CD or DVD.
"The timing of the Mericos gift supporting gallium nitride research at UCSB could not have been better," said Chancellor Henry Yang. "The prospect of the gift was crucial to our successful efforts to recruit Shuji Nakamura, and the prospect of Nakamura's joining our top-notch gallium nitride group at UCSB was very appealing to the Mericos Foundation."
This is not the first time that the Mericos Foundation has made a substantial gift to this University, Yang noted. Back in the mid-1980s, the Foundation endowed a chair in honor of family progenitor Mericos Whittier. Herbert Kroemer, one of the principal originators of compound semiconductor technology and a professor of electrical and computer engineering, was appointed to that chair.
"Crystal growers," said Yang, "call the initial placement of the seed that leads to the desired crystalline structure the Œnucleation site.' Endowing the Whittier chair created a nucleation site for optoelectronic research at Santa Barbara. This new gift is like a catalyst for making a superb research group the best. UCSB is very grateful to the Mericos Foundation for the gift. I want to add special thanks to Joanne Whitter Blokker and her son, Jeff, who have acted so graciously and ably as UCSB emissaries to the Mericos Foundation."
Jeff Blokker, who holds both 1980 BS and 1984 MS degrees in electrical engineering from UCSB, concurs with Chancellor Yang about the timeliness of the Mericos gift. "This support from the Mericos Foundation for gallium nitride research represents," said Blokker, "one of those rare Zen moments when everything comes together in the right place at the right time. On the one hand, a pressing priority for the Foundation is to donate money for educational purposes in the Santa Barbara area. On the other hand, here is the University scrambling to put together the support for gallium nitride research that will attract the leading researcher of a generation. And the window of opportunity for bringing the two successfully together was small, measured in days not months."
What Blokker, who is the great-grandson of Mericos Whittier, does not dwell on in his depiction of that Zen moment is his own pivotal role. All he did, said Blokker, was to put the grant proposal before the Mericos Foundation board. "I'm not able to do anything but propose," he maintained.
What made Blokker's proposition compelling was his background. Twenty years ago when he was a student at UCSB, Blokker worked on gallium arsenide (the material that preceded gallium nitride as the center of wide-band-gap semiconductor research). "I was on the outside of the research group, one of the graduate students who did support work. I got one layer on," he recalls of his efforts to grow gallium arsenide crystals. "I put that layer on and got it to stick. The trick is to get it to stick. Everyone who did this work had a technique, and like many a good pastry chef we didn't share techniques," Blokker recalled.
So Blokker's graduate student experiences at UCSB made him enough of a gallium semiconductor initiate to enable him to appreciate Nakamura's mastery of technique and to speak authoritatively on Nakamura and gallium nitride to the Mericos Foundation.
Blokker decided in 1984 to put getting a PhD in electrical engineering on the back burner. So he took an MS degree and a leave of absence from UCSB and entered into a partnership to form a company, first named Blokker and Associates and subsequently CableSoft, now located in Ojai, Calif.
What CableSoft does for its clients is provide software it has tailor-made to analyze stock market transactions tick by tick. With the capacity to analyze 200 transactions per second, said Blokker, "We are typically 100 times faster than our competitors." The clients for CableSoft products are professional day traders‹the pros who are the market makers executing large blocks of trades, rather than the consumer day traders, who have achieved fame (if not notoriety) of late. An example of what the software does for its users is the detection of large blocks of trades. The idea is to be alerted to the possibility that someone is, for instance, selling a large block of stock, which will lower the price, so that an even larger block can be obtained at the lower price.
It is no wonder that someone in Blokker's business should be alert to and appreciative of the opportunities that are a function of timing.
Back at the beginning of the last century, well before the advent of semiconductors and software, what drew Mericos (Max) Whitter from Maine to California was oil.
Whittier and his business associates were extremely successful prospectors, eventually bringing in billion-barrel fields in the vicinity of Taft. In the meantime, Whittier and partners Charlie Canfield and Burton Green had paid $670,000 for the Rodeo de la Argus, a large tract of land on the then outskirts of Los Angeles, but after drilling 30 "dusters," their efforts to detect oil there proved futile. So they decided to turn the land into a planned development, one of the first to sport architect-designed roads and in-ground services for plumbing and electricity. They even built a hotel there in 1912 to attract visitors and prospective sub-division buyers. That hotel is the Beverly Hills Hotel, and the tract itself, Beverly Hills.
Mericos Whittier's eldest son, Donald, preferring pastoral Santa Barbara to urban Los Angeles, moved to the South Coast. Among other philanthropic contributions to Santa Barbara, he was responsible for extending the railroad at the Santa Barbara Zoo. The Mericos Foundation was established in conjunction with the estate of Donald Whittier, who is the father of Joanne Whittier Blokker, Jeff's mother.
She said, "What pleases me about this $700,000 grant to UCSB is the good fit with my father's wishes. He loved Santa Barbara for its natural beauty and the low-key tenor of social interaction, and he put a high value on supporting education including engineering, technology, and science. With this grant the Mericos Foundation is fulfilling its mission."

Eastman Chemical Says Earnings May Climb 50% Through 2015
Eastman Chemical Co., which acquired Solutia Inc. this year for $3.38 billion, said profit may increase 50 percent over the next three years on sales of ingredients used in tires, coatings and windows.
Earnings in 2015 will rise to about $8 a share, from about $6.25 next year and $5.30 to $5.40 this year, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jim Rogers said today by phone. Profit was estimated to be $5.37 this year and $6.27 next year, according to the average of 13 analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Free cash flow through 2015 will exceed $2 billion, Chief Financial Officer Curt Espeland said in the phone interview. Eastman defines free cash flow as operating cash flow less capital spending and dividend payments.
"Depending on how successful we are at putting that cash flow to work, we could even be above 8 bucks in 2015," Rogers said.
Eastman, which doubled its sales in the Asia-Pacific region with the July addition of Solutia, expects 13 percent sales growth through 2015 in Brazil, Russia, India, China, Indonesia, Turkey and Mexico, Rogers said. Global annual sales may climb 4 percent to 6 percent in that time as economic growth improves to about 3 percent a year, he said.
Operating earnings in the advanced materials unit, which makes interlayer films used to strengthen windows for high rises and autos, should more than double to $380 million by 2015, Eastman said in a slide presentation. Earnings in the additives and functional products unit may climb 48 percent to $475 million by 2015 on sales of tire ingredients and coatings.
Tire Demand
Solutia makes Crystex insoluble sulfur used to make tires, and Eastman expects global tire demand to rise 4 percent to 5 percent next year after "a difficult" 2012, Mark Costa, an executive vice president, said in the interview. Growth may be slower in the commercial tire market, which is the primary market for Crystex, he said.
Using free cash to pay down debt will be a "top priority," the CEO said. Still, the Kingsport, Tennessee-based company will consider making "bolt-on" acquisitions that have a good strategic fit, Rogers said.
"We are not just going to sit there and let a good opportunity pass us by," Rogers said. "The hurdles are higher" because of the recent Solutia transaction, he said.
Eastman rose 2.4 percent to $63.65 at the close in New York. The shares have gained 63 percent this year.
Cheap Gas
Eastman is beginning to make the case to investors that the company's shares merit a higher earnings multiple because Solutia has accelerated the move away from commodity products and toward a "specialty chemical company" with higher profit margins, Rogers said.
Cheap natural gas in the U.S. adds about 10 percent to earnings before interest and taxes, primarily because it reduces costs for making ethylene and propylene, Rogers said. The company is considering whether to power some of its manufacturing site in Kingsport with gas rather than coal, he said. Raw materials at the site will still be coal derivatives.

Andrew Folk arrested in latest robbery of Subway in Mount Penn
Suspect a former employee of store, police say
Police have arrested a suspect in the latest robbery of a Subway store in Berks County.
The holdup happened around 8:15 p.m. Monday when a masked man armed with a gun walked into the Subway on Howard Boulevard in Mount Penn.
The suspect, identified by police as Andrew Folk, turned the cash register around and started grabbing money himself, investigators said.
Folk, a former employee of the store, was arrested five hours after the robbery, police said.
Police are still looking for one other person in connection with the holdup. Anyone with information that can help with their investigation is asked to call Crime Alert Berks County at 877-373-9913.
The same Subway store was robbed in April, and a suspect was subsequently arrested.

Le Cadeau Pinot noir Cote Est 09
$49.95 Regular
Aromas of red and black raspberry, lavender and red licorice. Flavors include sweet cranberry, red raspberry with hints of cinnamon and clove. The long finish is rich and spicy.
2007 Vintage Tasting Notes
New York Times #1 "Top Oregon Pinot noirs" 9-2-09 - "You could taste the vintage in the freshness of this wine. It was complex as well, with aromas and flavors of earth, flowers and fruit, and it was balanced. For me, it was the only wine in the tasting that transcended the divide between the welterweight and heavyweight wines." - Eric Asimov
The 2007 C�te Est presents aromatics of cherry licorice, ripe strawberry and raspberry. On the palate, fresh cherry and raspberry mingle seamlessly with subtle mid-palate tones that resemble the toasty flavors found in a fine Champagne. The oak is refined and integrated� modestly present, but in no way dominant. The wine finishes with soft tannins, and a hint of flinty minerality that lingers. Steve Ryan, previously the winemaker for Martinelli and presently the head winemaker and partner in Mendocino Farms, a biodynamic winery in Hopland, CA, masterfully crafted the 2007 C�te Est.
Produced from 100% Le Cadeau estate grown fruit, hand-picked into 25-lb. binshipped in a refrigerated truck for overnight delivery to Hopland, CA. 427 cases. - the winery

And here we go: Shareholder activism coming to the firearms business, thanks to the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Yesterday I noted on Twitter that Cerberus Capital Management, a private equity firm, was selling off the Freedom Group International firearms business it owns and that divestiture may be the New New Thing for shareholder activists tired of the gun lobby's grip on this country. This morning, word comes from Boston that the state treasurer for Massachusetts will review his state's pension fund investments in the firearms business. The treasurer, Steve Grossman, didn't say he'll support divestiture yet (Smith & Wesson in based in the western part of the state) but rest assured that the pressure will be there.
Indeed, Massachusetts apparently only the latest state to reconsider where it puts its pension money, not the last. California's teacher union said Monday it would reconsider a $500 million investment with Cerberus—shortly before Cerberus said it was dumping Freedom Group. Many published reports say public-employee pension funds around the country are reviewing their holdings to see whether they should or should not sell off holdings.
Institutional investors have a considerable amount of power, of course, and investment firms like Cerberus have a much easier time walking away from a holding than corporations do shedding a line of business. The next question: whether individual investors start taking the battle directly to Corporate America, filing resolutions for businesses like Walmart or Dick's Sporting Goods to stop selling firearms. Proxy season is only weeks away and no corporate secretary will relish this headache, when shareholder resolutions are always a pain but the Sandy Hook tragedy is so searing and the need to do something so urgent.
I can't imagine shareholder activists will not try to push divestiture proposals somewhere; this is what they live for, after all. Moreover, remember that public-employee unions do have an agenda: to represent the interests of their members, who are quite often teachers, police, firefighters, and similar workers—that is, the people who respond first to tragedies like mass shootings and risk their lives to prevent them. Not getting shot is very much one of their interests, so I would not be at all surprised if we see shareholder pressure and even resolutions for the proxy statement. The questions are whether companies (a) will be able to keep such proposals off the proxy statement; and (b) will want to keep them off the proxy.
One standard for excluding a shareholder resolution from the proxy statement is whether the proposal intrudes into ordinary matters of business, which should be the domain of the board of directors. A proposal for a retailer to stop selling firearms sounds suspect to me—if you substitute the word "toys" or "bedding" for "firearms," nobody would take that proposal seriously. We only object to selling guns because they are a dangerous product, but retailers sell plenty of dangerous products (chemicals, knives, flammable liquids) and common social standards are that the corporation, not shareholders, decides what types of products to sell. Arguing for exclusion will be unpleasant business, but logically and legally corporations won't be on weak ground.
The question of whether corporations will be on weak ground reputationally—that's a different matter, and perhaps one better treated by our sister magazine PR Week. Walmart, Dick's Sporting Goods, and other retail chains will need to review whether the money they get from gun sales is really going to be worth the headache of bad publicity and possible proxy fights.

Do Siamese Fighters attack Guppies?
I have a question about Siamese Fighters. Is it true that they attack other fish that also have long fan tails? For example: Do Siamese Fighters attack Guppies?
yes, this indeed happens. Apparently, the Siamese Fighters sometimes mistake other long-finned and colorful fish for members of their own species and attack them. This may be fatal for the physically far inferior Guppies, therefore it is advisable not to keep at least long-finned Guppies together with Siamese Fighters.

Surgery Options for GERD
Acid reflux occurs when stomach acid flows backwards into the esophagus. This causes heartburn and other symptoms. Chronic or severe acid reflux is known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Mild or moderate reflux symptoms can often be relieved with diet and lifestyle changes. Over-the-counter and prescription medications can also help with symptom relief. Medications used to treat GERD include:
- antacids
- H2 blockers
- proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)
Unfortunately, some people aren't helped by lifestyle changes or medications. Surgery may be an option for those people. Surgery focuses on repairing or replacing the valve at the bottom of the esophagus that normally keeps acid from moving backward from the stomach. This valve is called the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). A weak or damaged LES is what causes GERD.
Surgery may be recommended if you have serious GERD complications. For example, stomach acid can cause inflammation of the esophagus. This may lead to bleeding or ulcers. Scars from tissue damage can constrict the esophagus and make swallowing difficult.
Untreated GERD can also develop into a condition called Barrett's esophagus. This condition increases the risk of esophageal cancer. However, esophageal cancer is rare, even in people with Barrett's.
There are several surgical options that may help to relieve GERD symptoms and manage complications. Surgery for GERD is usually a last resort. Most doctors use it only when other treatments have failed to relieve symptoms. For some people, surgery is a better option than a lifetime of managing drugs and discomfort. Speak with your doctor for guidance on the best approach to manage your condition.
This is the standard surgical treatment for GERD. It tightens and reinforces the LES. The upper part of the stomach is wrapped around the outside of the lower esophagus to strengthen the sphincter.
Fundoplication can be performed as an open surgery. During an open surgery, the surgeon makes a long incision in your stomach to access the esophagus. It can also be performed as laparoscopic surgery. This type of surgery involves several smaller incisions. Miniaturized instruments are used to make the process less invasive.
TIF (Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication)
This procedure is used when open fundoplication is not appropriate. It creates a barrier between the stomach and the esophagus. The barrier prevents reflux of stomach acid.
This procedure doesn't require incisions. A device called an EsophyX is inserted through your mouth. It creates several folds at the base of the esophagus. The folds form a new valve.
Stretta Procedure
This procedure is performed with an endoscope. This is a thin, flexible tube that can be threaded into your esophagus. An electrode at the end of the tube heats your esophageal tissue and creates tiny cuts in it. The cuts form scar tissue in the esophagus. This blocks the nerves that respond to refluxed acid.
The scar tissue that forms also helps strengthen the surrounding muscles.
Bard EndoCinch System
This system also uses an endoscope. Stitches are made to form pleats in the LES. This strengthens the LES.
Linx Surgery
This surgery uses a special device called a Linx. It's a ring of tiny magnetic titanium beads. When wrapped around the LES, the Linx strengthens the sphincter.
Because the beads are magnetized, they move together to keep the opening between the stomach and esophagus closed. Food can still pass through normally.

STATEMENT: CAP Economist Adam Hersh on Today's GDP Report

Email: email@example.com
Washington, D.C. — Center for American Progress Economist Adam Hersh had the following reaction to the announcement of the second-quarter GDP numbers released this morning by the Bureau of Labor Statistics:
No one should be surprised that economic growth continues to muddle along: This was the predictable outcome of across-the-board spending cuts in effect since March and other mounting fiscal austerity building wrought by deficit hawks in Congress. It is important to recognize that the choice to cut public spending is a deliberate political calculation made by leadership in the Republican-led House of Representatives that is costing the U.S. economy jobs and forestalling the aspirations for economic progress shared by millions of strained working families across the country. Restoring the ill-advised spending cuts is a no-brainer way to boost the economy, literally tomorrow. As CBO estimates show, we'd add 0.7 percentage points to GDP growth and nearly 1 million additional new jobs over the next year. This action could plug the dike, but policymakers must still focus their efforts on strengthening the more than 300 million people in working families who are America's true engines of economic growth.

GREENVILLE, S.C. -- The case of a Landrum mother charged with homicide by child neglect after a falling dresser killed her 2-year-old son is going to the grand jury.
Greenville County Sheriff's investigator Eric Whaley said at Tuesday's preliminary hearing that 27-year-old Margie Shaver was home watching TV in March when Chandler Shaver was crushed.
Whaley testified the mobile home was filthy, and Chandler's and his sister's bedroom was infested with mice and animal feces.
Whaley says the mother told investigators she put her children to bed between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. When she checked on them several hours later, she found Chandler unresponsive under the dresser and called 911.
An autopsy showed Chandler died of compressional asphyxia. Each time he exhaled, the pressure of the dresser increased, restricting his breathing.

Hi.Can you pls help me to know how long after cooking must we eat cooked vegetables before they lose nutrative value. In terms of nutrative value what is the maximum time that they can be kept & still eaten. TQVM
15 July, 2011 | Vijayalakshmi Iyengar | Reply
Hello Katey,It's very difficult to put a number or percentage of loss in the nutritive value of vegetables while or after cooking or storing post cooking as there are too many parameters at play. For example it depends on various issues like 1. How fresh was the vegetable before cooking.2. How and to what size the vegetable is cut. 3. What cooking method is employed and length of cooking etc 4. What was the method of storing and for how long?At best we can say that it should be consumed as soon as possible be it harvesting, storing, cooking or stored post cooking. Adopt practical methods to ensure vegetables are eaten as healthy as possible and overcooking of vegetables leaches out all nutrition. In the case of some vegetables, cooking can actually increase the variety of nutrients that get released inside our digestive tract. Eg onion & garlicKindly refer to our article on some hints to Good practices-http://www.nutritionvista.com/NutritionBuzz/10-best-tips-on-cooking-the-right-way-to-retain-nutrition-freshness,266.aspx?pId=1

hallo friends, i would like to know is it correct white basmati rice is ok to eat as whole foods....even though husk is not there for good health.
i wonder how can basmati can be good it is like white starch..
could any boda explain ..
thank you

Vegetables should be cooked covered to retain maximum nutrients, however the first few minutes it should be uncovered to let volatile gases out and then it should be covered.
They should be cooked till just done to retain the crispness, unique taste and nutrition. Overcooking kills taste, texture and most important loses maximum nutrition.
Children shoule be taught to appreciate flavours and taste of vegetables from the begining so that they acquire taste ane enjoy eating them.

I would like to know whether toasted bread has the same nutrition value as is of untoasted bread?
15 December, 2010 | Poonam | Reply
Hello Geeta,On a gram by gram basis, toasted bread has more concentrated nutrients than untoasted bread. eg: 25 gms of toasted bread contains 78 calories as compared to 66 calories in 25 gms of untoasted bread. There is loss of moisture while toasting and the starch gets converted into dextrins- which is similar to digesting the food in the body. This makes it lighter on the digestive system.

When we were in Gujarat my wife learnt to make Dokhlas, as my kids like it a lot. Unlike the idlis we make in South India, it is made almost instantly using soda with besan.Is it a healthy dish? DO you recommend we eat it regularly as you have said use of soda leads to loss of some nutrients.
12 July, 2010 | Sangeetha Narayana Swamy | Reply
Dear Shailesh,The variation for the regular dhokla is to make it by soaking channa dal and tuvar dal and grinding it to Idly batter consistency and let it ferment for two or three hours. Once fermented add curds and set aside for sometime,to this you can add green leafy vegetables, carrot, capsicum etc and steam cook it. Also, the same thing can be done with idly batter too to get a healthy snack.Thank you for your query,Regards,Sangeetha Narayana Swamy,Senior Dietitian, NutritionVista.com

As aptly written in article, it is preferable to wash rice with minimum amount of water. Apart from that we can utilize the water used for soaking rice for cooking it too, to prevent loss of water soluble vitamins.

Game Info
GAME NAME: Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition
DEVELOPER(S): DrinkBox Studios
PUBLISHER(S): DrinkBox Studios
PLATFORM(S): Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS4
GENRE(S): Action, Platformer, Indie
RELEASE DATE(S): July 2nd, 2014
Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition has got to be one of the most absurd names for a videogame ever. Don't be fooled, however; in spite of the silliness, it's also perfectly descriptive in that you know what you will be getting. It's an updated edition of the original Guacamelee! We can now also confirm that this is indeed the best edition of Guacamelee! on any platform, good news considering how phenomenal the core game is, but also not an essential purchase for those of you who have already had chance to indulge in the Lucha madness.
For all intents and purposes, Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is essentially the "next-generation" version of the original Guacamelee! released back in 2013. To be fair though, this doesn't mean it looks any better than the PC version (or indeed the previous-generation) nor does it perform any better with the new hardware. Rather, it adds a number of small tweaks, all of the game's DLC and some unique content that acts, more than anything, as a "value bundle of sorts". That's all that was really needed for this release, to be fair, and the game ran perfectly fine and looked beautiful to begin with, so it would seem bizarre to tinker with that side of the formula.
You star as the recently deceased Juan Aguacate, possessor of a magical luchador mask and tasked with the almighty prospect of rescuing el Presidente's kidnapped daughter from the evil Carlos Calaca. If it seems rather silly and "gamey", that's because it is. But rather than devolving into a series of tropes, the game quite slyly pokes fun at gaming as a medium. This would all be for nothing if G!STCE fell into the trap of pointing out the flaws in gaming but making the player play through these selfsame flaws (we're looking at you Duke Nukem Forever). Instead, the game presents itself as an excellently designed metroidvania styled game.
That this means is a lot of platforming, fighting and exploration. Both the platforming and fighting is relatively simple but both also control incredibly tightly, which is all we can really all we can ask for. There are a number of combos you can use to dispatch enemies with, but for the most part you won't really need them and you're likely to use the same ones over and over again anyway. In typical metroidvania fashion, the game also introduces a number of new powers to help you progress. These powers also allow you to access previously locked areas that you couldn't reach earlier in the game allowing you to get to all sorts of hidden goodies. This is were the most of Guacamelee!'s added depth lies and you're likely to spend hours just searching for cool things to see in the beautifully designed world.
In fact, very rarely will you play a game that is so excellently designed in nearly all of its facets. The characters are all incredibly recognisable and likeable with the witty dialogue, fleshing out the characters perfectly. The game world is also divided up into distinct locations all of which offer a unique mechanic given the theme of the area and which can be backtracked too at any time using a fast travel system. The game is littered with details (most of which are genuinely humorous) and the luchador theme is very well executed throughout the experience, in a way completely unique to gaming.
All of this was included in the base experience, so what exactly do you get that's unique to Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition? The first thing is small tweaks to the game like all enemies now featuring health metres and some of the more frustrating platforming experiences being buffed out. There are also major improvements like all new types of enemies, locations and costumes that are unique and specifically for this edition of the game. Of course, you will also get all of the DLC currently released for the game, most important of which is "El Inferno"; it's a series of challenge rooms that provide significant longevity and also a sense of difficulty that seems to be missing in the main game.
If we're being totally honest, this version of Guacamelee! didn't really need to exist. The added content and tweaks found in these PS4, Xbox One and Wii U versions are a welcome addition but ultimately don't improve greatly upon what was already a rather phenomenal experience. That's not to say that fans of the game or those new to the experience shouldn't pick up Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition, quite the opposite in fact – and if you're going to pick up Guacamelee! in any form this is the version to get.

Summer officially arrived Saturday and it's the time of year that some people get inspired to exercise, either because of extra time and daylight or the desire to shed a little weight.
Tips for safely exercising your dog
To run or not to run
Sustained jogging or running is not recommended for young dogs whose bones haven't finished growing. It can also be hard on large dogs' joints and bones.
If you have a short-nosed (the technical term is "brachycephalic") dog, such as a pug, boxer, mastiff or bulldog, running may too risky. These dogs have abnormalities in their airways, especially the nose and throat, that make it harder for them to breathe when exerting themselves, and can increase their risk of heatstroke during warm weather.
Off-leash walking or running in a large, safe fenced property or park or on a beach or in a forest are ideal activities. Your dog can set her own pace, sniff and investigate to her heart's content, stop when she's tired and burst into running whenever she likes. Be sure to have your dog well-trained to reliably come when called before you give her off-leash privileges.
Make sure your dog has access to shade. Too much sun can lead to heat exhaustion or heat stroke.
Bring fresh water for your dog to drink.
Some breeds are natural water dogs and require no training or acclimation to the water or swimming, but even dogs who aren't bred for water activities can learn to enjoy a swim now and then.
Here are some tips for fun, safe swimming with your dog:
Introduce your dog to water as early as possible, preferably when she's still a puppy. If you do, she'll probably be more confident about swimming as an adult.
Regardless of your dog's age, make sure her first experiences with water are pleasant ones. Look for a quiet place with shallow water. With your dog on a long leash (about 15 to 20 feet long), start your dog at the water's edge. Wade in with her and encourage her with play and praise.
Don't let your dog swim into currents.
Don't allow your dog to jump into deep water in a pool or lake. A dog can panic and possibly drown. Without an easily accessible ramp, she may not be able to get out of a swimming pool or climb back onto a dock.
Never force your dog into the water and don't let her get in deep water over her head until you're confident about her swimming abilities. Belly-deep is deep enough at first. As she becomes more comfortable, you can toss a ball a couple of feet to encourage her to venture in a little deeper.
If you swim with your dog, be careful that the two of you don't get over your heads. Many dogs will try to climb on their guardian's head or shoulders when they tire.
Other tips
Giving your dog enough exercise doesn't mean you have to be athletic yourself. If you'd rather not run around or take long, brisk walks, consider two other approaches to exercising your dog:
For boating or swimming in lakes, get your dog a well-fitted canine life vest. You can use a long nylon lead to prevent your dog from swimming too far away or running off when she gets out of the water. Keep a close watch to make sure your dog doesn't get tangled in the lead.
Dog guardians who fish should take steps to make sure their dogs can't access fishing lines, lures, hooks or bait.
Sources: American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the American Veterinary Medical Association.
Over the years, I've noticed that some also want to bring their dog or dogs with them. Why not, right? They need exercise, too. Like us, many of our canine companions are overweight and out of shape.
As a lifelong dog owner, I also know that an exercised dog is a more calm, well-behaved and happier animal. You know, just like kids - and you.
Despite the fact that I'm a runner, I prefer walking my dogs or taking them to the beach or a dog park for some off-leash exercise. About the only time I run my dogs in a sustained manner is in cold weather and for a mile or less.
The heat is on
Unfortunately, when the owners overlook the heat and its impact on their dogs, it can end in a tragedy. I've seen it first hand, more than once. Dogs who literally drop, heavily panting, in a desperate attempt to cool off. To me, it's scary and heart-breaking.
Local veterinarians often end up seeing these dogs in late-stage heat stroke.
Dr. Steven Epstein of Animal Medical Center in Mount Pleasant says he tends to see a few cases from now until September.
Last summer, Epstein says a dog, which he described as "overweight golden retriever," that played for an hour or two the middle of day in July came in with a temperature of about 108 degrees and didn't make it.
Dr. Kelsey Harris, emergency clinician at Veterinary Emergency Care in North Charleston, says the clinic sees dogs suffering from heat stroke regularly and that people quickly recognize the problem after seeing their dogs experience it the first time.
"There's definitely a problem (with heat illness) in the Lowcountry," says Harris. "It's hard to quantify the number of cases, but it seems to happen more on holiday weekends. ... Exercising dogs is definitely a common denominator (in cases) as is leaving pets inside cars."
While it's best to protect your dog from heat stroke in the first place, if it does happen, Harris recommends cooling the dog externally with cold towels and fans. Ice packs wrapped in towels are good, but should not be used directly on their skin. She adds the dogs should be cooled slowly.
Common sense?
It should be common sense that dogs don't fare well to being exposed to, or exercised in, heat. They are covered in fur, after all, and dissipate heat through panting and their paws. They simply don't have the magnificent cooling system of sweat glands, specifically eccrine sweat glands, from head-to-toe that humans have.
Yet every summer I see bozos, which tend to be young adults (perhaps first-time) pet owners, running their dogs. Worst yet are the lazier ones who ride their bikes while running their dogs at top speed. And the laziest of all, those who run their dogs while they speed along in golf carts.
As a die-hard runner and cyclist and the owner of three dogs, please, I implore you, don't do this. And if you see people who do, say something.
Think I'm off my rocker on this one? The web site for the American Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, aka ASPCA, says this:
"People are actually better suited for jogging or long-distance running than dogs are. Even when hunting or herding, dogs tend to move in short, intense bursts of speed with intermittent stops. Playing dogs do this as well, stopping to sniff around, eliminate and enjoy the scenery. If you jog with your dog on leash, be careful not to overestimate her abilities and go too far."
The ASPCA adds that sustained running is not recommended for young dogs whose bones haven't finished growing or dogs that have short snouts. Those wanting to run dogs that are large, overweight or older should consult a veterinarian.
The ASPCA also stresses to avoid running dogs on pavement, especially sun-baked hot pavement, because it will harm the paws of dogs.
Summer is a fun time of year, but it can be fraught with a range risks for humans and our canine companions.

As a follow up I now have my Oracle XE database installed and configured.
My next step will be to install the Adempiere CRM/ERP program.
Fortunately, this can now be installed with Oracle XE and no longer
requires the full-on Oracle 10g installation..
This is really quite an excellent day.
P.S. My very sick long haired peruvian guinea pig was near death yesterday
but I think he's going to be o.k.. 'Oh happy day'

Cotton Belt moving ahead, but how fast?
For as long as I've been a member, this newspaper's editorial board has strongly advocated expanding the North Texas rail transit network.
At present, there's only one way: the public-private Cotton Belt. DART is tapped out, and no new major project could be taken off the drawing board and built for perhaps 30 more years.
Except the Cotton Belt — maybe. OK, big maybe. A 62-mile-long maybe.
The Cotton Belt is not a DART project, it's not a light-rail project, and it's unlike any project that's been built in America in recent history.
Some people put long odds against the venture actually carrying passengers some day across the northern tier of Dallas, and they may be right. I would bet little of my own money on this one giving me a ride some day.
Still, our editorial board has backed the effort, as with this statement of support in 2010:
This newspaper hopes the innovative approach will be a success story and overcome the considerable obstacles that skeptics point out.
And I don't see any reason that our voice should be tempered today, based on the report on the Cotton Belt as completed by consultants to the North Central Texas Council of Governments. The report, filed last month, contains no surprises and hews to a $2 billion price estimate for a line that runs from Plano-Richardson, across North Dallas-Addison-Carrollton and to the airport. It would then run west to downtown Fort Worth and finally southwest Fort Worth.
The concept is to locate stations where developers embrace it and enter into agreements to allow the enhanced wealth of their property to be tapped to finance the line. It would take a string of special taxing districts of some kind.
Murky? Yes, of course. Read the report and see if it gets clearer for you. The exact mechanisms are not invented yet.
Is this just a scheme to let property owners get rich?
Well, property owners are rich to begin with, and they will find a way to develop their land one way or the other. And the right-of-way for the rail line (owned by DART, incidentally) isn't going anywhere. If you were the property owner, what would you rather have — unused train tracks through the center of your land, or a train station and the opportunity to build around it?
Another way to look at the Cotton Belt is sketched out in the report. Here it is:
Indeed, private-sector financing – not public taxation – is what built streetcar systems across the US during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Developers raised the investment capital needed to build the lines by banking on the increases in property value created by a streetcar. The purpose was not merely to move people from one place to another; it was expressly to open new land for development. Private developers used the streetcar to bring customers to the land they wished to sell for development.
Of course, the Cotton Belt does not plow through open land. The tracks, now used sparingly by freight trains, go through some bare lots, but also through commercial, residential, light industrial and university property. There is a blizzard of jurisdictions to deal with.
But that's what the COG's consultants got paid the big bucks to sort through. Actually, Phase I was a mere $1 million, paid by the council of governments.
Michael Morris, transportation director of the NCTCOG, told me Phase II funding will bank on the consultants approaching potential financiers, builders and operators of the new line and securing Phase II planning money of several more millions.
Meanwhile, DART is going preliminary engineering work on the east side of the line, while Fort Worth's T hopes it can secure hundreds of millions to advance its side of the line.
In the meantime, lots of transportation contractors, financiers and wonks from across the globe are watching this experiment with keen interest.
I think it's fascinating to watch this project move forward, albeit ever so slightly.
NOTE: The Regional Transportation Council will get an update briefing on the project at a meeting Thursday.

The current emergency level for the campus has been upgraded from operating under normal conditions to Level 3 - Elevated. Level 3 indicates that the University should be on high alert for any forthcoming threat or emergency.
Tropical Storm Alex has emerged off the Northern Coast of the Yucatan and into the Gulf of Mexico.
Alex is moving north-northwest at 5 mph and is expected to reach hurricane status Tuesday, June 29.
It is projected to make landfall between Northern Mexico and the Southern Texas coast in the early morning hours of Thursday, July 1.
Forecasters are predicting that the path of Alex will be better known tomorrow morning. You can never predict what a tropical storm will do, so it is important to continue to listen to weather reports.
We will continue to monitor the movement of Alex and will keep you informed of any changes. In the mean time, departments should review their hurricane preparedness plan and be ready to execute as early as Tuesday.
Our next advisory will be issued early tomorrow morning.
It is important that employees stay informed, keep an eye on Tropical Storm Alex, and evaluate their personal hurricane preparedness plans.
You can find more information at the following links:
Announcements and updates prior to, during and after a storm will also be sent to all faculty, staff and students from the UTB/TSC Hurricane Team at firstname.lastname@example.com.

My deepest sympathies Tuner.
January 25, 2005, 05:38 PM
Deepest sympathies for your loss Tuner. And a note of appreciation for all the info, attitude and humor that gets disseminated on this gunsmithing forum. If y'all are not argueing over plunger tube staking vs silver soldering or headspace guages you argue about BBQ. Somehow the wheels stay on this place we all get some laughs and I learn alot too.
January 25, 2005, 08:14 PM
So sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts and prayers of those you've helped so selflessly are with you and yours.
January 25, 2005, 08:25 PM
Tuner, this comes as a shock to me. You and your family have my deepest sympathies. Take care.
January 25, 2005, 08:26 PM
Tuner-I never have had the chance to meet you or your mom, but I suspect that her raising you got some of the best of her rubbed off on ya. You and yours are certainly worth spending some time on my knees for.
January 25, 2005, 09:44 PM
My condolences bro...
I feel for you and your family.
January 26, 2005, 07:38 AM
My thanks and appreciation to all who have offered support. It's been
a rough 4 months since she took sick. She was tired of her life and ready to get on with whatever comes next, so there was no sudden shock. I hurt more for my stepfather than anything else. He's just lost his best friend,
and for the second time in 15 years, he's lost his wife. Hard to figure how to go it alone at age 83, and I'll have to stick pretty close to him until he gets
it worked out.
Now for the part that I dread. Settling final affairs and doing the business end of it. I'll need to work up the resolve to rifle through her paperwork and personal effects. Maybe next week...but not today.
January 26, 2005, 08:23 AM
My deepest sympathies Tuner on your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.
January 26, 2005, 08:27 AM

Your are in my prayers. Your mother has gone to a better place and she can now rest easy without worry or pain. It will be hard on you, your family and stepfather but this too shall pass. In the thoughts of an elderly black minister "The lawd ain't gonna give you more than you can tote". It is these trials and tributations that test your faith. May the Lord bless and kept you.
January 26, 2005, 06:21 PM
Thanks guys...
January 26, 2005, 08:01 PM
Even putting on the best of faces, this is a transition we all dread. It sucks, plain and simple, no matter the silver lining we might try to find in it. Tuner - if I could send ya something concrete to help I would, but since I can't I'll just have to send you my thoughts and prayers.
Don't forget to take care of you while you're off busy taking care of the others, ya hear?

Title: Hope Arrives From the North: The Oral History of 12 Brazilian Student Nurses Who Interned on the American Hospital Ship "Hope" in the Northeast of Brazil in 1972
Abstract: As a Brazilian Registered Nurse working and studying in the United States, I had the opportunity to study an interesting historical event. Specifically, I recorded and examined — due to my close ties with the Brazilian participants — the experiences of 12 Brazilian student nurses who interned on the American hospital ship "Hope" (affiliated with Project Hope) during its 1972 visit to Natal, Brazil. The methodology I used for this project was Oral History, which I researched as part of an independent study project completed with Professor Sandra Lewenson during studies leading to a BSN degree.

What transpires this weekend at the Class AA wrestling tournament at Wilson-West Lawn High School is merely a warmup to the following week in Hershey.
But, sheesh, looking at some of the weights in this year's PIAA Class AA Southeast Region field, it sure feels like the state tournament.
Some of the state's best wrestlers will bang heads Friday and Saturday with a trip to the PIAA state tournament on the line, with preliminary round action beginning at 5 p.m. Friday. The top five finishers at each weight qualify and some projected region finals should not be missed.
And we're talking specifically about the 126 class, where Trinity's returning state champ Ryan Diehl (34-3) could meet up with one of the stars of the unbeaten Bethlehem Catholic squad (17-0) that recently won its third straight Class AA state team title: junior Zeke Moisey (20-1).
Moisey, a returning state runner-up, is the District 11 champ and someone Diehl is obviously aware of. Both wrestlers are expected to make it to the final, and it should be something.
But after Diehl beat Boiling Springs' Kyle Shoop by technical fall in last Saturday's District 3 final, he said his focus this week would not be on Moisey.
"(Just) that first match,'' Diehl said.
"Once I get done the first match, I move to the next one.''
"He will let it fly,'' Bethlehem Catholic head coach Jeff Karam said of Moisey.
"He's just a very good wrestler who is very fun to watch. I'm pretty sure if he does face Diehl, it's not going to be a 2-1 match.''
Diehl's teammate, 195-pounder Adam Geiger (25-2), won District 3 last weekend and could eventually face District 11 champ Josh Alpha (32-8), another one of Karam's wrestlers.
The Hawks had three state champs last season -- Darian Cruz, Randy Cruz and Elliot Riddick -- and only Darian Cruz (38-1) returns, where he is a prohibitive favorite at 120.
"He's strong as heck and he is very hard to score on,'' Karam said of Alpha.
"He's the kind of kid who just always finds a way to win.''
"I do think this is our best year,'' added Karam, whose son, Becahi freshman Luke Karam (26-2), is entered at 106 after winning the District 11 tourney.
"We may not have as star-studded a lineup, but this is a pretty complete team. I think we have solid kids at every weight.''
A local wrestler to watch is Boiling Springs' Korbin Myers (39-1) at 113.
Myers, a returning state runner-up, is a two-time district champ who only surrendered one point in last week's district tourney.
Lurking in the bottom half of the 113 bracket is Tamaqua's unbeaten Colin Mashack (23-0), who placed sixth at the weight (106) Myers earned silver at last season.
Myers said last Saturday his success in last year's District 3 tournament has paid dividends this year.
"Last year, I was really, really nervous coming into the (district final),'' Myers said.
"But through experience, I calmed myself down and I was able to open it up on my feet.''
This week's region tournament should be an interesting experience for talented Bishop McDevitt freshman 106-pounder Tyshawn White, who became McDevitt's first district champ when he beat Upper Dauphin's Coy Campbell in last Saturday's final.
In addition to Jeff Karam's son, Luke, there is Wilson's tough Jaryd Flank (29-1), a returning state qualifier who will likely face White in Friday's quarterfinal round.
Scott Lindsey, White's coach, said the wrestler has improved this season because of his physical tools and his focus.
"Tyshawn's had a great year,'' Lindsey said.
"One thing about him, he listens to everything you say. A lot of kids don't listen nowadays, they do their own thing. He listens to all of the coaches.''

The day after Christmas, Joe Yanes of Greeley did what he has done for the past 23 years — he went to work. He felt fine. It was like any other day at JBS USA. He went up high on his perch about three feet below the ceiling and got to work. The next thing he remembers is waking up in the hospital seeing blurry faces. Yanes had a heart attack.
If it hadn't been for his well-trained co-workers and the use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), doctors told Yanes he would not be here. Co-workers arrived at North Colorado Medical Center to visit Yanes and tell him about what happened after he collapsed.
"My boss and co-workers helped me," Yanes said. "They got me to the cafeteria and gave me CPR. If it wasn't for them, I would not be talking to you now."
Dawn Olson, director of business development in the CardioVascular Institute at NCMC, said Yanes had blockages in his heart that caused it to go into a dangerous rhythm. The shock from the AED is what helped his heart regain natural rhythm.
Yanes is now wearing a life vest, a personal and portable AED, for up to 90 days. It monitors his heart and can shock him if needed. He is in cardiac rehabilitation three times a week and has changed his diet, cutting out salt and fat.
"Our life changed," said his wife, Lucia. "As the doctors talked, I sat there shocked. As he gets better every day, it gets easier. He's getting back to his old self. We are really thankful the co-workers kept him going until the ambulance got there. If they wouldn't have, he wouldn't be here."
Success stories like Yanes' aren't always the case. That is why the city of Greeley, the fire department, Banner Ambulance Services and the NCMC CardioVascular Institute have partnered to start Heart Safe Community, an effort to raise awareness about heart safety in Greeley.
As part of the campaign, free CPR classes are being offered for anyone in the community.
"The more the community knows, the better off these patients are when they hit our table," Olson said.
CPR is an important part of the equation, Olson said, to keep blood flowing to the brain.
"Sometimes what we see is if CPR is not done you lose brain activity, as well," Olson said. "They can't come back and be the same person as they were. It really makes the difference."
Participants can also learn how to use an AED. The NCMC Foundation is also trying to raise money to get AEDs in all public buildings and schools. One AED is $1,800.
"(Joe) wouldn't have survived if he had been where people didn't know what to do," Olson said.
Olson added she thinks some people have a bit of fear when it comes to using an AED because they do not want to hurt the person. But she said AEDs are built so they can't hurt the person. The machine tells you if it is OK to shock the person or not.
The Greeley Recreation Department has purchased 10 AEDs and 12 have been placed in police cars. Olson said when AEDs are placed in a public building, dispatch is notified. So when a person calls 911, dispatch will be able to tell the caller where the AED is located in the building.
"How nice would it be if you knew if you walked into the grocery store and knew they have an AED and you are safe?" Olson said. "We are making our community heart safe."
How nice would it be if you knew if you walked into the grocery store and knew they have an AED and you are safe? We are making our community heart safe.

An investigation by the Tishomingo Police Department and the Johnston County district attorney into an alleged verbal altercation between a Tishomingo resident and a country music star has been closed, authorities said.
Melanie Pedan made a complaint to the Tishomingo Police Department about a verbal altercation she said occurred between herself and singer Miranda Lambert, the wife of country singer Blake Shelton. Officials said the complaint was investigated.
The Tishomingo city attorney met with the Johnston County district attorney on Friday and said that no crime had been committed. The investigation was closed and no police report was made.
