It's so sad that two young people's life ended in such a tragic way. I don't understand why they would both choose not to wear helmets. But then, would that have been enough to protect them hitting a huge tractor trailer. Well, it's so sad and my thought and prayers are with thier families.

How do I get the GBA insertion pokemon?
Is a Jesus Freak and proud of it
Here's a list of Pokemon that are found in DP by inserting a GBA game:
And Platinum:
[23:47] <kesha> PENNSATUCKY PLEASE CURE ME OF THESE UNCLEAN THOUGHTS
pm me any reports/questions that you may have
(it may take a couple of days for me to respond, though)
It only works after you get the National Dex, Mind you that GBA Insertion must be done on the original DS "Phat" or DS lite, as they're the only two DSes that have the GBA slot.
Most of the Pokémon are found in HeartGold or Soul Silver don't have the 5 GBA Pokémon games, so you can trade for them.
I've tried putting in both emerald and LG and I was looking for a gligar in a route that serebii suggested and looked for a good half-an-hour but found no gligar even though there's an 8% find chance. Then I tried the old chateau and looked for haunter and gengar in the "eyes" room but still to no avail...
Is a Jesus Freak and proud of it
How do I get to Veilstone city. I'm currently in the same town as the Phyduck blocking the way
[23:47] <kesha> PENNSATUCKY PLEASE CURE ME OF THESE UNCLEAN THOUGHTS
pm me any reports/questions that you may have
(it may take a couple of days for me to respond, though)
So I helped the girl got her pokedex. We teamed up and beat the guys .
Then they wouldn't let me pass the door cause it needs a special key. Btw, I got my 3rd badge.
Whats the next step?
So what do I do now. GOo for my 4th badge?
Sorry for asking so many questions, this is my first time playing it.
I'm so used to playing heart gold and fire red so I'm getting lost quite easily.

Can you re-write this in English so people can understand what you are asking?Originally Posted by mrsquirrel
Having to go back and cover an area that I missed in science about animal digestive systems - got no idea what it is talking about in the Thai book or has my thai partner teacher - any ideas
Can you re-write this in English so people can understand what you are asking?Originally Posted by mrsquirrel
Snaff sorry
I need to teach a section on animal digestive systems however I have no idea what it requires me to cover what detail etc.
This is magnifyed by the fact that my Thai partner teacher has no idea either as it just doesn't seem to make any sense
This is for M2 science
Teach them about buffalo/cow stomachs., Carniverous vs vegetarian systems etc.
Idiom 'chewing the cud'
Theres got to be tonnes on the web.
Does the textbooks have anything comprehensible you can share with everone?
animals eat, churn it up a bit, then shit it out.
speaking of which, lunch time........
"...ever wonder why they kill the weak ones, baby?"
animals eat, churn it up a bit, then shit it out.
speaking of which, lunch time........
I taught that in M-2 as well. Quite simple really. Next comes human digestion. Don't forget to ask Ss why turds are tappered.
Interesting note, though it's more urinary than digestive: my daughter the science teacher says that birds don't have bladders and don't dilute their output with water, so that white stuff is very concentrated. That's why it stains paint jobs on cars. A bladder would add weight. Not sure if that's birdshit or birdpee, or a combination. Animals that aren't mammals can have very weird systems of elimination, but I suppose even amoebas have them. Or 'amoebae."
"The times I've been mistaken, it's impossible to say" - by the Moody Blues
[quote= A bladder would add weight. Not sure if that's birdshit or birdpee, or a combination. [/quote]
... and hollow bones, couldn't get lift-off without them. Damn, I love birds.
That axiom about not giving ave bones to dogs is true. I had a very aggressive pit once. I was teasing him with a chicken leg, he jumped up on my lap and took the whole chicken. I wasn't about to take it away from him. He died two days later. Stomach puncture.
It's a combination. I remember learning that when I was a kid and thought that's pretty efficient. <<< This egg is somewhat connected to birds.Not sure if that's birdshit or birdpee, or a combination
<<< and this is somewhat connected with shit.
It was actually easy to figure out - it was more that the fudging thai book that I had to use for translation was not the best
It was about the size of digestive systems in herbivores compared to carnivores - all interesting stuff.
Yeah, carnivores have short intestines comparing to their body size. The idea is that the meat has to be digested quickly before it's starts decaying. Herbivores, on the other hand, have very long intestines because all that fiber needs time and it doesn't produce as much toxins as meat.
I heard this as an argument for a vegetarian diet - because our intestines are of a hebivorous kind.
Dear mrsquirrel,
Sorry, but a little bit off-topic!
If ANIMAL DIGESTION is the chapter you ended with at M 2 Sci, you're far behind schedule. Please don't forget M 3 is the year of truth. Next year you have to synchronise your EP curriculum with the Thai curriculum. You must know that the entrance-exams high school (M 4) are only in the Thai language. MoE encouraged Ep's in 2003, put a halt in 2004 and is waiting for schools to finish M 3 with success (starting 2005).

Sugar Cookies from my Grandma
My paternal grandma, Velma, was an amazing cook. Her house had a very distinct home-y smell, almost as if the decades of delicious meals she had prepared had lingered around. I'm sure you're grandma's house has the same smell. She passed away when I was eight years old so I was a little young to learn her recipes from her first hand but I am very lucky to have several of her best, in her handwriting, on her recipe cards. One of my favorites is her sugar cookies. I can't even tell you the last time I made her sugar cookies which means it was long overdue! When she would make them, she would roll them into a ball and mash them with a fork covered in sugar but I decided to use cookie cutters. If you take the easy road, I promise they'll still taste good. As I work my way through my grandma's recipes, I've found several that I've seen in other places (this one included!)- either identical or nearly so- which makes me think that those recipes have made their way around over the years. I remember looking at her recipe as a little girl and wondering why she put tartar sauce in them. :)
Sugar Cookies
2 sticks of butter, softened to room temperature (NOT melted)
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1. Cream together butter, egg, vanilla, and powdered sugar. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cream of tartar, and baking soda.
2. Slowly add flour mixture to liquid mixture until JUST combined. Do not over mix.
3. Press together in a disc shape on wax paper. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
4. Roll out dough to 1/4" thickness on floured surface. (I find it to be a little easier if you break the disk into 4 chunks and roll out each one individually. Don't worry if the edges seem like they're falling apart. Keep rolling and the center should stay together. Don't forget to flour your rolling pin!) Cut desired shapes with cookie cutters. If you'd like to leave them plain (without icing) sprinkle white sugar on cookies at this time. (note: keep cut, unbaked cookies, in the fridge if they're not in the oven. If you leave them out on the counter and let them reach room temperature, they will bake up all puffy and they''ll lose their shape! And don't over crowd the pan! I bake 4 at a time so the edges don't touch!)
5. Bake 350 for 8-10 minutes on parchment paper lined cooking sheet. I'm still learning my gas oven so they're a little uneven.
6. Let cookies cool completely before decorating with royal icing.
Royal Icing
3 egg whites
4 cups powdered sugar
Food Coloring
1. In large bowl, whisk egg whites until frothy.
2. Add powdered sugar gradually while mixing on low until mixture is shiny. Start with 3 cups of powedered sugar and slowly add more to desired thickness. You don't want it so runny it slides off your cookies. This should take approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
3. Add food coloring and transfer to piping bag (or a large plastic bag with the end snipped off)
(I prefer Wilton color gel instead of regular food coloring. You can find it at Hobby Lobby and Michael's. I used a piping bag with a very small tip.)
4. If your icing is too thick and doesn't spread itself out after you fill in your outline, just use the back of a spoon to gently push it around.
P.S. I've added a little printer friendly button right down below each blog post so you can print my recipes if you wish to. If you open each blog post individually by clicking on the post title, they print out easily.

And the cookies look adorable and delicious. I'm always so impressed by you gals and your royal icing...I've never attempted it but it looks like it's a lot of work! Maybe one day when I have nothing to do. (insert sarcasm font here)
Oh - and grandma's recipes, handwritten, on her own recipe card?! I would cherish that so much I'd probably have it framed. I have my Papa's barbeque sauce and brunswick stew recipes....but that doesn't really have the same feel to it as sugar cookies. :)ReplyDelete
The icing is so adorable, they look so yummy!ReplyDelete
Those cookies look delicious. I will have to pin this for later. =) I also love your photos. You are so creative (the baker's twine wrapped around the stack of cookies.) Love it!ReplyDelete

Friday morning began with Chad and Holly waiting at the court once again. We did not have promise that we would receive our ruling but we had nothing to lose. After about 3 hours of waiting we had the document. Everyone was so excited. We then packed up the car and left for Kampala.
We arrived in Kampala with enough time to pick up the girls passports. Everything is ready for us to go to the Embassy on Monday morning.
Sorry this is so short but it is late and I am tired.

Our view: Housing Authority, COPPS work together
Amid ongoing reports about gun violence and concerns about neighborhood safety in Erie, there's also a success story about police-community relations, in what might be considered unlikely places.
As Erica Erwin reported on Sept. 23, the Erie Housing Authority recently voted to extend its Community Oriented Police and Probation Services (COPPS) program through Aug. 31, 2014.
Under the program, the Erie Bureau of Police provides six officers to work at the authority's 14 public housing complexes. The program costs $1.4 million for two years, to cover officer salaries and benefits. The authority pays most of that cost -- $925,000. The city of Erie pays the rest.
But this community policing initiative is paying dividends, according to John Horan, executive director of the housing authority. The police officers have significantly reduced criminal activity at public housing, and have improved relationships with residents. "On an annual basis, we have 400 incidents per year, down from a high of close to 1,000 incidents per year before we started the program," Horan says. "We say we have the safest neighborhoods in the city of Erie. That's our message, and I think the data would bear that out."
Under Horan, the housing authority has also taken other steps over the years to change public housing, from places denigrated as "the projects" into communities where residents not only feel safe, but can aspire to eventual self-sufficiency. For instance, to celebrate its 70th anniversary in 2008, the housing authority honored former public housing residents who are recognized as success stories, because they've obtained degrees and landed good jobs. "It's almost as if a person is looked down upon if they're in public housing," one recipient said then, a woman who works in banking and also operates a small business.
The experience of meeting police officers who care about the residents and work to keep them safe helps to reinforce that positive message. Horan calls the partnership a "model program," and points out that the same officers have been with the program since it started. "It has allowed the officers to get to know the residents who live in public housing. They know the children, they know the parents, they know who belongs and who doesn't. They know everybody and everything. ... In the purest form, they are really a community police unit that is there to solve problems, not just enforce the laws of society," Horan says.
The success of this program doesn't diminish the fact that Erie faces serious challenges in many pockets of the city because of gun violence and other crimes. But there are things to learn from COPPS, because of the program's emphasis that public housing is a neighborhood, not a warehouse for the needy. As Erie's anti-violence task force moves into its new phase to strengthen Neighborhood Watch programs, we hope that similar success stories emerge elsewhere.

Griffins Features
Jan. 24, 2011
Cory Emmerton will never forget his first game in the NHL.
Saturday's debut was impressive with Emmerton scoring the lone goal in the Red Wings' 4-1 loss to Chicago.
But more memorable might have been him getting to Detroit.
Emmerton was getting ready to take part in the morning skate in Grand Rapids, preparing for the Griffins' game that evening.
Then he got word from Griffins coach Curt Fraser that the Wings were calling up Emmerton because Valtteri Filppula was battling flu-like symptoms.
"It's been a whirlwind day," Emmerton said. "It would have been nice to have been in a win. I'm just happy to get the experience."
A little after 9:30 a.m., he got on I-96 and drove to Joe Louis Arena. The Wings' game was scheduled for 2 p.m.
Emmerton knew he didn't have much time to waste.
"I had a couple of hours to get my suit on and get here," Emmerton said. "I didn't have a lot of time, but in the end, that may have been best for me."
As in not much time to get nervous, not much time to worry about calling family and friends and not much time to wonder who he'd be on the ice with.
Emmerton arrived at Joe Louis Arena around noon.
"A little later than I'd like, but enough time to get ready," said Emmerton, who was able to have his father and several relatives at the game, given they were either visiting him in Grand Rapids or on their way to watch him play in Grand Rapids.
When he arrived, though, Emmerton had one need.
"Thankfully the guys here found some food for me. I didn't have anything before," he said.
Emmerton played 9 minutes, 5 seconds, was credited with three shots on net, and was plus-1. Coach Mike Babcock said after the game Emmerton would stay through Wednesday's game against New Jersey. Tomas Tatar, meanwhile, is headed back to Grand Rapids.
"I like Emmerton," said Babcock, who noticed the young player during the exhibition season. "Emmerton's smart, he can make plays, and he knows to play without the puck."

How can manufacturers help retailers achieve their shopper marketing objectives?
True shopper marketing involves collaboration between a retailer and a manufacturer that share the mutual goal of driving behavioral change among that store's customers. In an ideal situation, a manufacturer presents customized ideas grounded in insights about that business' shoppers and the retailer provides input into the process. Knowing that some manufacturers offer "prebuilt" plans, an operator should ensure that the solution works against the "triple win" scenario. Otherwise, it's a signal that the approach does not delve deep enough into the needs of their specific shoppers.


text: Explore Stavoren Leeuwarden Franeker Harlingen Sneek Bolsward Makkum Workum Hindeloopen Stavoren Sloten Dokkum Moddergat and Wierum The Frisian Islands Groningen Around Groningen Drenthe Share Named after the Frisian god Stavo, Stavoren is the oldest town in Friesland and was once a prosperous port; it's now both the end of the train line and the departure point for ferries to Enkhuizen. Strung out along the coast, Stavoren is an eclectic mix of the old and new: the harbour is flanked by modern housing while the shipyards are linked by cobbled backstreets. Popular with yachty types, it's a great place to admire the carefully restored seventeenth- to nineteenth-century vessels that once plied the Zuider Zee, now moored up and awaiting rental. On a sunny day, watching the old wooden ships go by and listening to the clink of halyards is as an enjoyable pastime as any. At the southern end of town, massive, squat turbines encased in glass can be seen pumping water out of Friesland and into the IJsselmeer. Cycling around Stavoren Read More

Eastergoa (also Ostergau, Ostergo, or Oostergo) was one of the seven areas and one of the three gaue that lay within the borders of the today's Frisian province of Friesland in The Netherlands.
On its west side Eastergoa was bordered by the Middelsee with Westergoa on the other side of the water. To the south the Alde Leppedyk and the Boarn were the border with Bornegoa, and later with Sânwâlden. To the east it was bordered by the lauwers, the lauwerzee and the Westerkwartier of the Ommelanden, nowadays the western side of the province of Groningen.
The whole of this area belonged to Wininge and Achtkarspelen, that was by then still a part of Eastergoa. Round 1200 Wininge existed out of Dantumadeel, Dongeradeel and Ferwerderadeel in the north and Idaarderadeel, Leeuwarderadeel and Tytsjerksteradeel in the south. Round 1250 it was split into two parts called the "Noardlike njoggen" (Northern nine) and the "Sudlike njoggen" (Southern nine).
Round 1500 the parts further fell apart and so Eastergoa was split into two cities, Leeuwarden and Dokkum and eleven grietenijen (or municipalities), Achtkarspelen, Dantumadiel, Oostdongeradeel, Ferwerderadeel, Idaarderadeel, Leeuwarderadeel, Kollumerland, Rauwerderhem, Smallingerland, Tytsjerksteradeel and Westdongeradeel.
The eleven grietenijen of Eastergoa:
- Ljouwerteradeel
- Ferwerderadeel
- Westdongeradeel

Just past the midway point in conference play, the ACC has broken right down the middle into two distinct groups!
I'm tired of searching for the last time the sixth-place team was only one game out of first place this late in the year.
Suffice it to say it's been a long time, if ever .
Three teams, Duke, Florida State and North Carolina, have two losses each.
Three more, Miami, NC State and Virginia, each have three losses.
What all six of these teams have in common is everyone has a bad loss of one kind or another.
Coaches, players and fans can all look at their team's results and think, "Darn! If only we had beaten (fill in the blank), we'd be ahead (or tied for the lead)."
Let's take a look at each of the six teams, see who the "blank" was in each case and assess their chances of winning the regular season ACC title, or at least making the NCAA Tournament.

I've got a big head and this works the way i want it to. this stretches sufficiently around the face, to expose the eyes, nose and mouth, and not like the picture suggests. With the little peak at the top of the opening, you'll end up looking like batman, mick mouse or count Dracula, which for me is positive, not like a criminal as the picture suggests.

I would love if you made this with a bigger hole in the face - so your head, ears, neck and chin would all be warm, but you could still talk and eat and breathe out your nose, etc. Alexander McQueen just sent some like the ones I'm describing down his menswear Fall 09 runway!

i actually really like this balaclava, its more functional in san diego and los angeles cold weather than it is anywhere else. i wore it during the holiday factory sale 08. everyone called me a ninja, but it surprisingly insulated a good amount of heat. the weather was around 40-50 degrees F, i do not recommend wearing it during any other temperature (unless you are robbing).

Dude, it's called a balaclava. And why are the seams all mismatched? This might be cool if its fabricated in contrasting or tonal color combinations. Similar items made from silk are available in bolder colors than gray at most winter-wear shops.

Oxidized cellulose in gauzelike form (oxycel®) is finding increasing favor among urologic surgeons. Postoperative hemorrhage is minimized in nearly all the cases in which it is used in the prostatic cavity following prostatectomy. When gauze packs and "pressure rubber bags" are eliminated the postoperative morbidity is definitely shortened. With oxidized cellulose or absorbable gelatin sponge (gelfoam®) patients have infinitely less pain and discomfort. Sedatives are unnecessary unless the catheter fails to drain properly. After the catheter is removed the oxidized cellulose or the absorbable gelatin sponge usually disintegrates or the material can be irrigated out.
The purpose of this report is to call attention to the retention of oxidized cellulose in the posterior urethra following retropubic prostatectomy. The retained material caused posterior urethral obstruction and severe vesical symptoms.

[See previous post: "The Lone Ranger Movie Review: Pirates of the Caribbean in Western Garb."] Gore Verbinski fills The Lone Ranger with ticklish insider references to other classic Westerns and even gives a nod to Johnny Depp's 1995 oater Dead Man. And, as usual, the director busts out the crane shots – and it's always a kick to see how his latest swooping camera move will reveal detail and add spikes of humor. The flip side is that Verbinski will indulge any plot complication as long as it results in another action sequence.
John and Tonto's search for Cavendish often takes them to a railroad track, railroad tunnel, or railroad train, where a loud and kicky set piece awaits its cue. In fact, six miles of track and two locomotives were constructed just to add authenticity to The Lone Ranger, even though there's so much CGI anyway that they might as well have saved themselves the effort. Still, it's a refreshingly old-fashioned approach that's mischievously appropriate considering the story is built around railroad expansion, here spearheaded by railroad tycoon Latham Cole (Tom Wilkinson). Cole initially claims his expansion plan will honor the treaty between the White man and the Native American, only to change his mind later, with violent results.
Johnny Depp and The Lone Ranger's portrayal of Native Americans
Indeed, The Lone Ranger will be measured partially by how it treats its Native American characters. Johnny Depp has noted in interviews that he wanted the film to return some dignity to the United States' indigenous people. But that's just a talking point for the promotional circuit. A flashback recalling the tragic event in Tonto's childhood that explains his motivation (and possible his kooky behavior) is historically plausible, but means little once he starts feeding the dead crow on his head and prancing around like, well, Jack Sparrow.
That's not to say the Comanches in The Lone Ranger should be treated with solemn reverence – lest, at the very least, we lose the movie's funniest line, spoken by the head of the Comanche tribe. That is to say, however, that Depp's Buster Keaton-esque imagining of Tonto does the character and his heritage no favors.
The Lone Ranger 2013 movie: Basic premise too old-fashioned for our 'newfangled, smart-aleck world'
Even if Johnny Depp played Tonto with less winking and less quirk, that wouldn't forgive a basic miscalculation in blatantly remaking Pirates of the Caribbean as a Western: pirate tales can better accommodate campiness, whimsy, and flights of visual fancy. Swashbuckling pirates seem more fictional, the subjects of tall tales beloved by children and read under the covers by flashlight. Westerns, on the other hand, are ripped from the nation's recent, violent, often tragic history.
Only a rock-steady vision would have allowed Gore Verbinski to go off the reservation (pun intended) and ask audiences to accept vicious cannibalistic rabbits (don't ask), silly humor, and dollops of mysticism. His take features modern sensibilities, modern technology, and modern studio-marketing strategies. As a result, Disney spent over $200 million to prove The Lone Ranger is too old-fashioned for such a newfangled, smart-aleck world.

MLive.com's own Ansar Khan reports that Red Wings defenceman Brian Rafalski has to sit out against the St. Louis Blues to give his groin a full week to heal, and the Free Press's Helene St. James confirms, noting that Rafalski wasn't alone in skipping the on-ice portion of Tuesday's practice:
March 31, Detroit Free Press: Update from Joe Louis Arena today: Stars Nicklas Lidstrom, Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk and Brian Rafalski all were exempted from practice.
The Wings don't play again until Thursday at home against St. Louis, so there's an extra emphasis on resting up the big minute men on the team. Rafalski, though, sat out because he's dealing with a groin injury.
"We'll just let it heal and then get back at it," Rafalski said. "It'll probably be a few more days before I skate - Sunday, Monday at the earlier. A strain on the groin is 7-10 days, generally."
Also of note: Ty Conklin starts vs. the Blues on Thursday:
"Conks won his last game, and I went back with Ozzie after his night in Calgary and then went back to him again," [Red Wings coach Mike] Babcock said. "The bottom line is, it's Conks' turn now, so we'll go with him and see what happens."
Update 1:47: The Detroit News's Dave Dye confirms:
March 31, Detroit News: "It will be a few more days before I start skating -- Sunday, Monday at the earliest," Rafalski said Tuesday. "I don't want to have any setbacks at this time of the year."
Rafalski had played every game this season before sitting out Sunday's 4-3 loss to Nashville.
Meanwhile, Nicklas Lidstrom, Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk were given a rest day and missed Tuesday's practice. All three are expected to play Thursday (7:30 p.m., FSN Detroit).
Coach Mike Babcock said Ty Conklin will start in goal against the Blues.

To investigate the impact of a computer-based documentation (CBD) tool on parent and physician satisfaction with a pediatric health maintenance encounter.
The project used a preintervention and postintervention design. The preintervention group visits used paper-based forms for data entry, whereas the postintervention visits used CBD. At the conclusion of each encounter, both the physician and the parent completed a survey that assessed their perceptions of the encounter's quality.
Urban hospital-based pediatric teaching clinic.
Parents and physicians of children 18 months and younger.
Main Outcome Measures
Parent and physician satisfaction with 7 components of a health maintenance encounter (interim history, social history, anticipatory guidance, developmental assessment, physical examination, assessment, and plan).
There was no change in overall parent or physician satisfaction in the areas of communication or physician helpfulness. Physicians using CBD were less likely to agree that they provided clear explanations but were also less likely to agree that they "acted bossy during the visit." There was no correlation between physician and parent satisfaction or between physician satisfaction and pattern of CBD use. However, there was a strong correlation between physicians' satisfaction and the extent to which they found CBD helpful (Spearman ρ = 0.29, P<.001).
The introduction of CBD into the health maintenance encounter did not affect measured aspects of parent or physician satisfaction; these results support its continued use in that setting.
Numerous studies1- 14 have outlined the potential benefits of using a computer to document a patient encounter. Computer-based documentation (CBD) tools improve access to summaries of the encounter15 and may improve compliance with recommended health maintenance guidelines.1,4,11,14,16- 18 Studies performed in primary care environments have raised concerns about the potential impact of CBD on patient satisfaction,19 patient-physician communication,4,14,20 and the duration of the encounter.21,22 Although early studies23- 27 of adult patients demonstrated patient concern about the use of computers, recent studies28- 30 have uniformly shown no perceived or measurable decrease in patient satisfaction.
The effect of CBD in a pediatric setting has not been studied and cannot be generalized from adult studies. The first step toward understanding how the use of CBD during health maintenance encounters affects the quality of primary care received is to evaluate how parent and physician satisfaction with the visit is affected by CBD. Therefore, we conducted a study to determine the timing and extent of CBD use and if it affected parent and physician satisfaction with the visit.
The study participants used a noncommercial software program developed by one of us (K.B.J.). This program, called Clictate, allows a combination of free-text data input and "point-and-click" input to create a visit summary.31 Clictate displays documentation templates derived from American Academy of Pediatrics health maintenance guidelines for 12 age-specific time frames, ranging from 2 weeks old to adolescence. These templates are reviewed and updated periodically by clinic faculty. Clictate uses data entry tools found in graphical user interfaces, such as check boxes, radio buttons, text fields, and drop-down list boxes, which generate a text note summary (Figure). Clictate allows clinic physicians, residents, and nurse practitioners to complete the note in any order.

The study used a preintervention and postintervention design and took place in an urban hospital-based pediatric teaching clinic. The preintervention (control) group consisted of health maintenance visits in the clinic before CBD was implemented, using paper encounter forms (PEFs). The postintervention (CBD) group consisted of parents and physicians who completed health maintenance visits beginning 1 year after the introduction of Clictate. During the CBD phase, physicians were encouraged but not required to use Clictate during the encounter. If they chose not to do so, they generated an encounter summary through computer data entry after the encounter. All clinic physicians were able to use Clictate; however, only residents were included in the study. Health maintenance visits were eligible for study inclusion if the patient was 18 months or younger and had not previously been enrolled in the intervention phase of the study.
As a part of a larger study that evaluated parent-physician interaction, each encounter was audiotaped. Length of audiotape was used to determine the duration of the encounter. At the conclusion of the encounter, the physician and parent each completed a questionnaire based on a tool developed by Wissow et al32 that assessed satisfaction with the encounter.
Use of CBD was assessed by an exit survey given to physicians at the end of each visit. This survey divided the visit into 7 components of a health maintenance encounter (interim history, social history, anticipatory guidance, developmental assessment, physical examination, assessment, and plan) and asked physicians how they documented each section (not at all, during the visit, immediately after the visit, at the end of the clinic session, or the subsequent day). The survey asked physicians to assess the template's helpfulness on a 4-point ordinal scale from "no help" to "a great deal of help."
Control group visits were randomly extracted from data obtained in a recent study by Gielen et al33 that evaluated anticipatory guidance for injury prevention. That study also had audiotaped encounters and used a subset of identical satisfaction survey questions. It was conducted in the same clinic as ours, using the same patient age group and a previous group of pediatric residents. Institutional review board approval was obtained for our study. Physicians and parents each signed consent forms before participating in this study or the study from which preintervention encounter data were drawn.
This study was designed to assess the effect of CBD on parent and physician satisfaction as measured by our survey instrument. The sample size assumed that a 10% change in satisfaction was clinically meaningful. Assuming 95% power and α = .01, we required a sample size of 120 encounters in each group. Results were analyzed using Stata statistical software (StataCorp LP, College Station, Tex).
In initial confirmatory analyses, we compared distributions of satisfaction indices with the Wilcoxon rank sum tests. Comparisons of proportions used Fisher exact or χ2 tests. In the multivariate analysis, regression models explored the relationships between satisfaction outcome measures and CBD use, controlling for physician sex and year of training. When comparing parent and physician satisfaction data, we dichotomized the responses to "strongly agree" vs all other responses for the satisfaction questions and "great deal of help" vs all other responses for the helpfulness questions. A logistic regression analysis was then performed to compare the proportion of PEF vs CBD respondents who answered in the highest response category for all survey questions. Because we considered unique parent encounters as the unit of analysis, each physician had multiple encounters. To account for possible within-physician correlations, we used the Huber-White sandwich variance estimators for the logistic regression analysis.34,35
A total of 240 parent-patient dyads were eligible for inclusion in the CBD group. Of these, physicians returned 229 satisfaction surveys (95% of the visits), and parents returned 221 satisfaction surveys (92%). The enrolled visits were uniformly distributed across all ages (through 18 months) at which health maintenance visits occur. The PEF group consisted of 150 parent-patient dyads with 1 set of missing data, leaving 149 PEF dyads suitable for analysis. Compared with the PEF group, the CBD group had significantly more male physicians (38% vs 25%, P = .007) and fewer first-year residents (21% vs 44%, P = .01).
Forty-three percent of the physicians who returned surveys reported using CBD during the visit for the interim and social history, and 54% used it for anticipatory guidance and developmental aspects. However, 74% of physicians reported that they documented physical examination findings, assessment notes, and plans after completing the encounter. The mean CBD visit length (32 minutes; 95% confidence interval [CI], 31-35 minutes) was longer than that for PEF visits (28 minutes; 95% CI, 26-30 minutes; P<.001).
Table 1 gives physician perceptions of the documentation templates. The developmental assessment and anticipatory guidance sections were of "some help" or "a great deal of help" to most physicians, whereas responses regarding other sections were mixed. Physicians' use of CBD during the patient encounter was correlated with the degree of help they thought the template provided (ρ = 0.32, P<.001).
Parent and physician satisfaction data are given in Table 2 and Table 3. There was no change in mean parent satisfaction with the encounter, although there was a significant increase in the percentage of patients who strongly agreed that they were encouraged by their physician to talk about worries (53% in the PEF group vs 64% in the CBD group, P = .02). Parent perception of physician helpfulness ratings was high, with no difference in the extent to which physicians were perceived as helpful before and after CBD.
Physician satisfaction was higher among male than female physicians (ρ = 0.15, P = .003). After controlling for physician year of training and sex, parents in the CBD group were more likely to talk about worries (odds ratio, 4.34; 95% CI, 1.49-12.69) than those in the PEF group; however, there were no other significant effects. Physician and parent satisfaction scores for visits were not related to the degree of continuity between a physician and parent.
Within the CBD group, there was varying use of CBD during the visit. We defined "high-CBD encounters" as encounters in which physicians reported completing documentation either during or between visits (n = 120) and "low-CBD encounters" as all other encounters (n = 103). Bivariate analysis of parent and physician satisfaction measures between these 2 groups disclosed no significant differences (data not shown).
This study demonstrated that when provided with a CBD tool, most residents chose to use it for some or all parts of health maintenance encounters. Neither parent nor physician satisfaction changed significantly with the introduction of a computer into the encounter. Physicians perceive that they are less "bossy" during encounters, which may be due to changes in communication style integral to CBD or potentially to unmeasured variables. Physicians believed that they were less able to clearly explain issues and plans during a higher proportion of CBD encounters. This perception might have been altered during the CBD period if the use of the technology was affecting either the physician's sense of urgency during the visit or the reception of cues to reassure the physician about the effects of his or her communication with the parent. In either case, we might have expected other components of this scale to be affected, including perceptions about "acting bossy," which as described herein were less prevalent during the CBD period. An analysis of parent-physician interaction will likely provide objective data to conclude how CBD affects partnering.
This study in pediatrics compares favorably with findings from other studies that examined the effect of computer technology in preventive medicine clinics,19,36 family practice,30,37,38 and rehabilitation clinics.39 A consistent pattern is emerging that is more favorable toward computer use in the examination room than was found in older studies25,26 or studies that involved patients who had never had experience with a computer in the examination room.24,40 The association between exposure to computers and satisfaction has been noted by Cruickshank.25 Unfortunately, the present study did not attempt to correlate parent exposure to computers with satisfaction, which may be an important predictor.
Physicians tend to be more negative about the perceived effects of computers on the quality of patient encounters than are their patients.19,26,27,39 The 2 populations of physicians in this study had a small but significant difference in satisfaction, especially in the area of clearly explaining issues and plans, which suggests some subtle negative effects of CBD on their satisfaction. In previous studies that have examined physicians' attitudes about computers, physicians have raised concerns about potentially losing eye contact,19 typing,19 and patient rapport.38,41 These concerns may affect perceptions about partnership and helpfulness. The extent to which documentation was completed during the encounter was reasonably high for the anticipatory guidance and developmental assessment components of the visit but low for the physical examination, assessment, and plan components. We postulate 3 reasons for this difference. First, anticipatory guidance and developmental milestones are difficult to remember. Therefore, Clictate's age-appropriate templates may have provided an important guideline for many physicians. Second, the computers were placed on the desktop between the parent and the physician and could not be moved. Physical examination, assessment, and planning are typically conducted away from the desk, making concurrent documentation difficult. Further research should explore how the use of personal digital assistants or pen-based tablet computers affects the timing of documentation. A third reason for this difference may be the resident's definition of the encounter, in that residents often leave the examination room to consult with the attending physician before articulating the plan with the patient. It is possible that residents categorize that time as after the patient encounter.
The 2 groups studied in this project had statistically significant differences in both physician sex and year of training. Sex is known to affect patient-physician interactions.42,43 Multivariate analyses disclosed a difference in the odds ratio for only 1 question relating to physician partnership, with a more significant difference in the CBD group after controlling for sex and year of training. All other satisfaction measures were unaffected.
The study is limited by our use of a historical control group. This choice may account for the slight difference in physician satisfaction scores between our 2 groups. We are unaware of other changes that may have affected physician satisfaction during the interval encompassed by this study. However, given that the scores of physicians who had CBD available but did not use it during the visit are similar to those of CBD users, the control and intervention groups may not be well matched. Although a randomized controlled method would provide more assurance that the 2 groups were similar, this method is difficult to implement in a busy clinical setting. Another limitation of the study is the high level of satisfaction exhibited by our parents. This high score should not preclude finding a significant diminution in parent satisfaction, which would have been especially concerning with the introduction of CBD into the examination room, and no diminution was found.
We have demonstrated that the adoption of CBD in a primary care pediatric clinic did not significantly affect either parent or physician satisfaction with the encounter. These results support continued use of CBD tools. Deeper examination of communication variables may help to explain subtle differences in physician perceptions. Further research is needed to improve the rate at which documentation can be completed during the encounter.

Aileron differential is usually applied on models having a non symmetrical airfoil such as hotliners, gliders, pylon racer and DLG rc planes. The up moving aileron moves more than the down moving aileron to account for the difference in lift and air pressure on the top and bottom wing surfaces. The ratio is generally 3:2 or slightly more.
A simple explanation of Aileron Differential is when the aileron of a plane goes up more distance than the down aileron to achieve the same deflection and with this adjustment, your airplane will roll in a perfect axial.
This can be achieved with a mechanical setting of the servo arm and control rod or with two servos on different chanels via a radio that can program dual chanel ailerons (Dx6i Dx7 ... and heaps of others).
My Turnigy ESC 25a just arrived. However if I plug everything in, the motor beeps like so "beep beep, pause, beep beep" and the prop jitters back and forth by an inch. What is wrong? If I plug another ESC it initializes well.
I also had to replace one aileron servo, but now ailerons go same way, but they should go opposite. I want to place new servo exactly same way the burned one was, due to wiring. I actually cant put in another way. But now flaps go to same direction, disabling turns (capt obv). Is there a way to make servo turn another direction? These are aileron servos hanging on Y wire.
Oh and one of two new servos actually jitters at neutral. Is that ok? Other 3 servos dont jitter at neutral, however they all jitter at max angle.
Also the 5X5 pulling 269W is due to suffer from stalling in static too? is that figure realistic?
I also have troubles with servos. After I crashed one aileron servo broke, it was only jittering at neutral and not moving. I took the rudder servo which worked just fine, placed it into aileron holder, but now this servo jitters at neutral too and doesnt move! But it was working 2 min ago. Makes me crazy. Other servo I have go in the wrong direction Whats up with jittering? Is the servo dead? And how do I reverse servo direction without TX. Because now I have ailerons going same way with other spare servos (( Do I solder two wires that go to the servo other way around to give it opposite direction? Or are there cw and ccw rotation servos?
Oh and I cant move the arm of those jittering servos. Seems like the gear stuck. But why does it happend?
Also how should the prop be mounted. With the numbers 5x5E facing the nose or the tail? If its the nose, than the washer falls out.
Also where exactly should be the center of gravity.

JLT its difficult to predict because a lot of factors are changing at once. As the prop unstalls, amps increase. This is known by the LMR guys using square or oversquare props. But as the plane accelerates, the load on the prop is gradually reduced. This unloading will continue up to the max speed of the plane (drag=thrust). The difference between this speed and the pitch speed (i.e. slick airframes can unload more). Battery voltage is also continuously dropping, which may completely offset or mask the prop rpm increases due to unloading.
What you would expect to see, at constant throttle setting, is the voltage staying the same or decreasing but rpms increasing. The problem is, as the prop unloads, amps decrease, which can cause battery voltage to rebound.
And the motor is heating up. And it's very difficult to tell is the plane is level - and everyones heard props unloading in a dive.
These guys did a very good job trying to answer the question. Post 117 has a great graph that shows watts drop as speed increases. It also shows a vertical climb pulling as many watts as static.
6x4 with the 2212/6 is a very proven setup. There's so many variables (better batteries, Kv variance, different brand props, airframe etc) it would be impossible to predict your exact setup. but it's pretty easy to check with a datalogger. You might also find on draggier airframes, that the 6x5 might have similar top speeds, more amp draw but worse acceleration than a 6x4. This is assuming the props are the same brand and type, like you mentioned.
I plan on using a 2212/6 on the Cloud Fly. If i get some datalogs of 6x4 and 6x5 APC-E and TGS props i'll post them here with gps speeds.
Redline, that would be great to have some loggers data. There's no doubt about unloading, everyone that flies glow knows it. I look forward to see your numbers.
One bit of lame question about all of this...
If the stock 2208N 2100Kv (some sources say 2150) CloudsFly motor at WOT with a 5X5 draws lets say 18.5A .. and the 2212 2200Kv with same prop draws 22.5A ..
Should i asume im getting more RPMs and so more thrust/speed or the motor may be burning that excess power in heat or some other loose and that gain not be real? Or electric motors are that trusty in numbers? (i dont know if im expressing well.. sorry)
Most likely you get more rpm and more power with the second motor. Easy to check with a tach. It's not impossible that a bad motor, eg wit displaced magnets, could draw more power due to innefficiency, but if both motors good, that's rare
It's possible to get RPM from a WAV file using Winscope. Many references to it on RCG, it's a free download
Something i tought while planing the setup for the HawkSky (and its cooling actually)..
In the Clouds we have 2 air intakes in the nose and a big exaust in the rear.. principles say where the planes moves forward the air is forced into the front intakes and will exit throught the rear after streaming all internal components (more or less)..
I tought.. the rear exaust outtake is just in front of the propeller wich moves air backwards.. could the propeller be also creating an effect where it would be forcing air out of the fuselaje as well (wich would also force air inside from the front intakes) ?
Hi guys
I want to add a pitch gyro to my cf using a Detrum GY48V
What channel do I use to set the gain and how do I set it on the DX6i ?.
In the heli setup it uses the flap/gyro switch but in the plane setup I have no idea what to use for gain.
Any help would be great thanks
EDIT I found these vids that explain everything http://www.mycoolrc.com/gyro/ruddergyroinstall1.html
I will leave this post as it may help others
I have a gyro from Hobby King hooked into the 'Y' lead for my ailerons. Works great and steadies the plane considerably. Found it was also great in preventing damage when taking off and landing in strong winds as the gyro reacts quickly to any gusts that threaten a cart wheel type action when close to the ground. I have been following the following thread on this and it is very informative.

A 10-member task force has been named to come up with guidelines for how to distribute the record $60 million fine that Pennsylvania State University will pay in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal, the NCAA said Tuesday.
The money will fund programs designed to combat child sexual abuse and help victims around the country. The task force will set policy for the endowment and hire a third-party administrator who will choose which nonprofit groups receive funding each year.

A Birthday Presence Second to None, Jeremy Sage Treats His Business Like Child's Play
Intruding on this gloom was Jeremy's mother, Esther, who had sung and danced in Yiddish theater. "She was a beautiful, sweet woman who made me laugh when I was sad," says Sage. "When things were bad—and things were often bad—in the middle of trying to soothe me, she'd say, 'What's that in your ear? You shouldn't put a Tootsie Roll in your ear!' Then she'd pretend to pull one out."
Years later, Sage stands front and center at Jeremy's Place on Manhattan's Upper East Side and works his own audience just as his sympathetic mother once worked him. At 43, he is handsome and model-trim, his voice a mellifluous baritone. But his greatest asset is his intimate understanding of exactly what this crowd has come to hear.
"Do you know what you're getting for party favors?" he asks breathlessly. "YES!" they yell happily back. "Are they neat?" "YES!" "Are they awesome?" "YES!" Meaningful pause. "Yes!" echoes Sage. "You're all getting—salad dressing!" The crowd, a bunch of very well-turned-out 5-year-olds, cracks up. Just loses it.
"Salad dressing is this year's funny word," says Sage, a former actor who appeared in the original Calvin Klein ads with Brooke Shields but now spends his days regaling small children. "Five years ago it was 'pickle.' 'Tuna' is funny. 'Tuna-brain' is a funny insult." Reflective pause. "My peers don't find me amusing at all," he says. "But children have always found me—silly."
In the cutthroat Manhattan industry built around birthday parties for affluent children, Sage isn't silly, he's an institution. Some of these kids have celebrated six birthdays in a row at Jeremy's Place, and some have been to more than 100 as guests. "They love the repetition," says one mother. They also seem to love Jeremy. First, children crowd into his brownstone, then they progress, with delighted shrieking, through a 27-foot simulated-stone tunnel decorated with glow-in-the-dark skeletons, dinosaurs and bugs. Then it's into the "performance room," where Jeremy holds forth on the stage. He plays the part of a bumbling magician, but that is just an excuse. "My thing is really verbal humor," he says. "What's King Kong's favorite city? Hong Kong. His favorite sport? Ping-Pong, His daughter's name? Ding Dong. You get a balloon. You get a baboon. You get a cartoon. You get a monsoon...."
You also get a bill. Last year Sage hosted 450 birthday parties, working seven days a week for 10 months and grossing well into six figures. Parents who are willing to pay $500 to $800 a shot for entertainment, favors and ice cream cake have been known to book a year in advance. New York magazine once described Jeremy as "more in demand than Tony Bennett in Vegas." And why not? "I make kids feel good," he says.
Esther would have understood. To make Jeremy feel good, she used to cook for him. "The day a boy stole my bicycle, she comforted me and fed me," he says. "The day I did real good on my tests, she congratulated me—and fed me." By his bar mitzvah, Jeremy weighed 227 lbs. Then he decided to go on a diet. Esther was baffled. She set a plate of stuffed kishke outside his bedroom door and wafted the aroma his way with a fan.
But Jeremy wouldn't quit. At Brandeis he majored in child psychology ("I was trying to figure out what was wrong with me") and spent his spare time acting. In 1976 he landed the role of Jesus in a touring production of Godspell—"1,438 crucifixions in all," he says—and one day in 1977 found himself standing next to Brooke Shields in her Calvins. "I always felt great beauty must be as intimidating as great genius," he remembers telling the teenage megamodel on-camera.
Not funny, maybe, but that commercial paid for Jeremy's Place. See him there now, working his audience. "Have you ever been married? How many times? Do you have a belly button? How many belly buttons?" Says a 4-year-old blond, giggling madly: "He's silly. He's very silly."
But not gregarious, Sage lives alone in a Manhattan high rise and doesn't go to parties for people his own age. Children, unfamiliar with the cliché of the melancholy clown, might find it hard to understand that their Jeremy spends much of his spare time—even in winter—sunning on his terrace, watching the gulls and the water and the boats. Occasionally he takes the train to Jones Beach "to scream and kick sand and get stuff out of me." Each morning he calls Esther, now 75. Sometime later he gets on his bike and, knapsack flapping, coasts the two blocks to the part of the day that gives him the most joy. And every afternoon he picks Tootsie Rolls out of children's ears.

Goodbye Galileo Today, the Galileo spacecraft will complete its final task of its eight year long mission to the outer planets. Its final task will commence with a skip across Jupiter's atmosphere, before plunging into the gas giant. Galileo will continue sending data as long as it can. Despite early problems with the spacecraft, Galileo has performed exceedingly well, and it is probably one of NASA's most successful spacecraft. It has sent back a wealth of information that still hasn't been sifted through by researchers yet. Some highlights include its witness of the largest recorded explosion, with a comet plunging into Jupiter; the first picture taken of an asteroid with a moon; many close flybys of the moons of Jupiter, including one where it flew through a volcanic plume. But, like all human made things, it must come to an end ... and today, it's the end for Galileo. (I wonder what Galileo would have thought of his namesake?)

- Rosewood Inn rated "excellent" by 55 travelers
The Rosewood Hotel and Rosewood Inn is a family run hotel. The owners are two brothers from Hong-Kong, Steven and Sam Wong.
You can find Sam or Steven most of the time having a quiet drink at the Cafe Del Moon, or on a terrace in front of one of their restaurants. Both make sure everything is running smoothly, take time discussing with the customers or share a drink with the local residents...just feeling at home in Yangshuo.
Sam Wong
Sam, originally from Hong-Kong, worked for 11 years as an english interpretor.
After performing his duty as a chapter President of the Chamber of Commerce of Hong-Kong, he ran his own business in China, exported cosmetics towards Japan, and ended up in Yangshuo thinking it would be a good place to retire...
Steven Wong
But Sam was not the kind of man to stay inactive.
In 1999, with the experience of Steven who worked in the tourism buisness in Dali, they created several restaurants along the famous and popular West Street. Their desire was to introduce to the visitors more choice, better food and services, with the similar value and quality that they both experienced during their travel around Asia.
