Media Release: 7 Wonders of Nature race is on…TMNP sets up public voting stations at Boulders and Tafelberg Rd VIC
Date: 2009-07-02
Table Mountain National Park (TMNP) will be setting up public voting stations at the Boulders Visitor Centre and at the TMNP's Visitor Information Centre (VIC) on Tafelberg Rd, to enable members of the public and Park visitors to vote for Table Mountain in the New7Wonders of Nature campaign.
The voting stations will open between 10:00 and 16:00 on Satur/day, 4 July and Sunday, 5 July 2009.
The public has six days left to cast their vote for Table Mountain in the New7Wonders of Nature campaign. Currently sitting at number 7 in its category, the majestic icon needs public votes to boost its position before Tuesday July 7, when voting closes.
The Tafelberg VIC is an open-access site while the Boulders penguin colony is one of the Park's pay points. Entry into Table Mountain National Park pay points is free for Wild Card holders. Terms and conditions apply.
The TMNP has set aside Friday, 3 July 2009 is a staff voting day.
Table Mountain soared to number five, but now sits at number seven in the New7Wonders of Nature global rankings, rocketing 22 places from its previous position of 29 three weeks ago. It is now officially ahead of legendary mountains such as Mount Everest, K2 Mountain and Mount Kilimanjaro but is behind other popular sites including Mount Olympus in Greece and Vesuvius Volcano in Italy.
Well-loved and respected South African celebrities and sports stars have shown their support for the cause. The Archbishop Desmond Tutu, comedian Marc Lottering, radio DJ Natalie Becker and the Proteas cricketers have all cast their votes for Table Mountain.
To qualify for the next round, Table Mountain needs to be ranked in the top 11 of its category - mountains and volcanoes - which has 36 fellow nominees. Table Mountain is currently ranked seventh out of 37. Other categories include seascapes, lakes, islands, ice formations, waterfalls and forests.
The New7Wonders Foundation in Zurich, Switzerland announced in January 2009 that Table Mountain was one of 261 magnificent natural sites from 222 countries to have made it through to the second round in this global race to name the New 7 Wonders of Nature. The New7Wonders of Nature will be determined by votes from the public.
The public can vote online at www.votefortablemountain.com or by calling 0041 77 312 4041 and selecting Table Mountain's three-digit code which is 332. Calls to the New 7 Wonders Swiss mobile voting number will cost R3.29 a minute in peak times (7am – 7pm) and R2.92 a minute off-peak (7pm – 7am).
Voting to select the top 77 sites (11 per category) runs until July 7 this year. Thereafter a panel of experts will select the 21 finalists (3 per category) - these will be announced on July 21 when the third and final phase of voting will begin. The official New 7 Wonders of Nature will be revealed in 2011.

So many people have different concepts of how a bullet is affected by angle. However, there cant be more than one correct answer here. I dont know the technicalities of the whole thing, but from what I understand (and I could be wrong) is that whether your shooting up or down you want to shoot as if your range from the target is as if you were to look straight forward and made a 90 degree angle up or down towards the target and that straight yardage mark should be the yardage you shoot. Shooting up obviously has a little more discrepancy since youre dealing with gravity, but not enough to make that big of a difference unless youre shooting at ranges up to 400 yds. Anyways, just wanted to hear what people had to say and try to pull the truth out of the topic.

BRITAIN will hand over administration of the London interbank offered rate (Libor) to the operator of the New York Stock Exchange as regulators try to revive confidence in the scandal-hit benchmark.
NYSE Euronext will replace the British Bankers' Association as Libor's administrator early next year, the London-based lobby group that started the benchmark more than two decades ago said in a statement on Tuesday.
The UK's Financial Conduct Authority began regulating Libor, the benchmark for more than $300-trillion of securities, in April as part of the overhaul.
The decision is not expected to have any fallout for the JSE, which uses the Johannesburg interbank agreed Rate (Jibar) system. Jibar works in a similar way to Libor and is used by local banks as an interest guide to settle overnight lending.
Jibar did not show the same volatility and wide divergence of trades as Libor did after 2008. However, a Reserve Bank report at end of last year recommended some changes in the setting of Jibar to make it more transparent.
The New York-based NYSE Euronext already operates Liffe, Europe's second-largest derivatives exchange, which offers derivatives based on Libor. A UK government review recommended last year that the British Bankers' Association should be stripped of responsibility for Libor after regulators found banks had tried to manipulate it to profit from bets on derivatives.
"The fact they are handing this to a derivatives exchange is a surprise," Peter Lenardos, a financials and exchange analyst at RBC Capital Markets in London, said on Tuesday. "It just doesn't seem independent enough.
"They are taking the setting of Libor from the banks and giving it to an exchange not known as a benchmark provider."
Barclays, UBS and Royal Bank of Scotland Group have been fined more than $2.5bn by US and UK regulators for rate-rigging and more than a dozen more firms are being probed worldwide.
The UK government formally started the search for a replacement body to set Libor in February after the British Bankers' Association formally voted to relinquish operation of the benchmark. A seven-member panel including Sarah Hogg, outgoing chairman of the Financial Reporting Council, Financial Conduct Authority CEO Martin Wheatley and the Bank of England's Paul Fisher, recommended the new administrator.

text: Explore Laos Fact file Where to go When to go Getting there Entry requirements Getting around Accommodation Food and drink Health The media Sports and outdoor activities Alternative therapies Culture and etiquette Crime and personal safety Shopping Travelling with children Travel essentials Share During their period of colonization, the French regarded traditional Lao therapies as quaint and amusing, and this attitude was passed on to the Lao elite who studied in France. In an essay about traditional Lao medicine written in the 1950s by a former Minister of Health, the traditional Lao doctor is repeatedly referred to as "the quack". But renewed interest, partially fuelled by a similar rekindling of enthusiasm in neighbouring China, has seen a resurgence of confidence in traditional techniques. Tourism has been partially responsible for renewed interest in traditional massage and herbal sauna, though these alternative therapies are generally limited to larger towns and cities. Besides the obvious physical benefits the Lao massage and sauna afford the recipient, administering massage and sauna to others is believed to bring spiritual merit to those who perform the labour, making Lao massage and sauna a win-win proposition for all involved. Lao massage Lao massage owes more to Chinese than to Thai schools, utilizing medicated balms and salves which are rubbed into the skin. Muscles are kneaded and joints are flexed while a warm compress of steeped herbs is applied to the area being treated. Besides massage, Lao doctors may utilize other "exotic" treatments that have been borrowed from neighbouring countries. One decidedly Chinese therapy that is sometimes employed in Laos is acupuncture (fang khem), in which long, thin needles are inserted into special points that correspond to specific organs or parts of the body. Another imported practice is the application of suction cups (kaew dut), a remedy popular in neighbouring Cambodia. Small glass jars are briefly heated with a flame and applied to bare skin; air within the cup contracts as it cools, drawing blood under the skin into the mouth of the cup. Theoretically, toxins within the bloodstream are in this way brought to the surface of the skin. Lao herbal saunas Before getting a massage, many Lao opt for some time in the herbal sauna. This usually consists of a rustic wooden shack divided into separate rooms for men and women; beneath the shack a drum of water sits on a wood fire. Medicinal herbs boiling in the drum release their juices into the water and the resulting steam is carried up into the rooms. The temperature inside is normally quite high and bathers should spend no more than fifteen minutes at a time in the sauna, taking frequent breaks to cool off by lounging outside and sipping herbal tea to replace water that the body so profusely sweats out. The recipes of both the saunas and teas are jealously guarded but are known to contain such herbal additives as carambola, tamarind, eucalyptus and citrus leaves. Read More

Remember when I told you about my #1 Go-To Meal? Well I just kicked it up a notch!
It's been a long week already…and it's only Tuesday…so last night I needed something quick and easy. As usual, I often turn to meals like this when my brain is just too tired to think of anything else.
As I was getting ready to cook the salmon, I remembered this bag of granola that the lovely Sarah of Sarah Learns sent me for my birthday! (*Sidenote- stay tuned for an awesome guest post from her later this week!) I thought it might be fun to use the granola as a breading of sorts for my salmon, kinda like the Pecan Crusted Haddock I made a few months ago.
This is really as simple as it sounds. I just dipped the salmon in egg and pressed it onto a plate of granola.
Then I placed it in a hot pan, granola side down, let it sizzle for a bit and then carefully flipped it over until it was finished cooking!
Serve it with a side of brown rice and some sweet potatoes & spinach cooked in veggie broth and you've got yourself a meal! This particular granola worked very well because there weren't big chunks that would have been difficult to stick to the fish. The granola absorbs a little of the oil from the pan so it's not SUPER crunchy, but it still gives a bit of crunch and a nice layer of sweetness to the dish!
What's your favorite topping for fish?

The State Education Department's Charter School Office seems to be playing a game of "Gotcha!" with local charter schools. It expects charter schools to perform at a certain level, but it has not defined that level or how schools should get there. Charter schools are trying to hit a moving target. When they miss the moving target, the Education Department closes them. The victims are Buffalo's schoolchildren.
Citing a history of poor performance, the department and the Board of Regents decided to close Community Charter School, effective this June. A May 7 Another Voice supporting the decision told only a part of Community's story. For the past year, Community has been operating under a turnaround plan designed by education experts. The practice of utilizing turnaround plans in low-performing schools is a proven solution for struggling schools.
The turnaround began in August 2012. Since then, the school has made remarkable progress. The former board was replaced with nine new members. A new administrative team was hired and is positively impacting instructional practices. The staff is focused on meeting challenges presented by children with histories of school struggles.
The board recognized it needed outside help with this process, and it hired consultants and experts to help implement the plan. As a result, students are overcoming the mystery of state testing. Community now uses a data‑driven model of instruction that reveals areas in need of remediation, with students reaping the benefits.
In its review, the Education Department failed to acknowledge the turnaround plan. When it visited the school, it indicated it would not provide Community with any technical assistance to help it meet the criteria for charter school success. But, when it came time for renewal, the department suddenly had a lot to say about how Community failed to meet this elusive target.
The opinions of local officials, consultants and business leaders and the recent press surrounding the Board of Education elections emphasize the difficulties the Buffalo Public School District is having turning around its underperforming schools. Why do state officials want to return Community's children to a district still working on a "how to" turnaround model when Community already has a successful plan in place?
Community is a safe school where attendance is exemplary and parent satisfaction is high. The board and staff are serious about making Community a school of excellence and have made measurable progress this year. More importantly, the Education Department needs to issue transparent regulations about charter school performance expectations. It should not be able to simply say, "Gotcha! You're closed."
Frank Herstek, Ed.D, is an independent consultant on school reform. He has worked with Community Charter School.

Thrombolysis is the breakdown (lysis) of blood clots[1] by pharmacological means, and commonly called clot busting. It works by stimulating secondary fibrinolysis by plasmin through infusion of analogs of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), the protein that normally activates plasmin.
Medical uses[edit]
Diseases where thrombolysis is used:
- Myocardial infarction
- Stroke (ischemic stroke)[2][needs update]
- Massive pulmonary embolism
- Acute limb ischaemia
Apart from streptokinase, all thrombolytic drugs are administered together with heparin (unfractionated or low molecular weight heparin), usually for 24 to 48 hours.
Thrombolysis is usually intravenous. It may also be used during an angiogram (intra-arterial thrombolysis), e.g. when patients present with stroke beyond three hours.
Thrombolysis is performed by many types of medical specialists, including interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, cardiologists, interventional neuroradiologists, and neurosurgeons. In some countries such as the United States of America, emergency medical technicians may administer thrombolytics for heart attacks in prehospital settings, by on-line medical direction. In countries with more extensive and independent qualifications, prehospital thrombolysis (fibrinolysis) may be initiated by the emergency care practitioner (ECP). Other countries which employ ECP's include, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. Prehospital thrombolysis is always the result of a risk benefit calculation of the heart attack, thrombolysis risks, and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) availability. As such, the prehospital practitioner will often consult with the receiving cardiologist as to treatment decisions—many cardiologists have personal preferences to available treatment options.
There are absolute and relative contraindications to thrombolysis.
Previous intracranial bleeding at any time, stroke in less than 6 months, closed head or facial trauma within 3 months, suspected aortic dissection, ischemic stroke within 3 months (except in ischemic stroke within 3 hours time), active bleeding diathesis, uncontrolled high blood pressure (>180 systolic or >100 diastolic), known structural cerebral vascular lesion, arterio-venous malformations, thrombocytopenia, known coagulation disorders, aneurysm, brain tumors, pericardial effusion, septic embolus.
Current anticoagulant use, invasive or surgical procedure in the last 2 weeks, prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) defined as more than 10 minutes, known bleeding diathesis, pregnancy, hemorrhagic or diabetic retinopathies, active peptic ulcer, controlled severe hypertension.[citation needed]
Thrombolysis mainly involves the use of thrombolytic drugs, which dissolve blood clots. These drugs are either derived from Streptococcus species, or, more recently, using recombinant biotechnology whereby tPA is manufactured by bacteria, resulting in a recombinant tissue plasminogen activator or rtPA.
Some commonly used thrombolytics are:
- Streptokinase
- Urokinase
- Recombinant tissue plasminogen activators
- Alteplase (tPA)
- Reteplase
- Tenecteplase
Formation of blood clots lies at the basis of a number of serious diseases (see below). By breaking down the clot, the disease process can be arrested, or the complications reduced. While other anticoagulants (such as heparin) prevent the "growth" of a clot, thrombolytic agents actively reduce the size of the clot.
Most thrombolytic agents work by activating the enzyme plasminogen, which clears the cross-linked fibrin mesh (the backbone of a clot). This makes the clot soluble and subject to further proteolysis by other enzymes, and restores blood flow over occluded blood vessels.
Ultrasound-accelerated thrombolysis[edit]
A recent multicenter randomized trial (DUET[3]) compared standard catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) versus ultrasound-accelerated thrombolysis (USAT, EKOS Corporation) for the treatment of acute peripheral arterial thrombotic occlusions. Results showed that, on average, patients treated with USAT were completed 12 hours sooner than those treated with standard CDT with no increase in "serious adverse events."[4] Plans are underway to commence the DUET II study, which will be a non-randomized trial using the EKOS system with an even lower hourly drug dose with an expectation of further reducing bleeding complications.

CHARLES TOWN - A trial date has been scheduled in the case of a Charles Town man accused of killing a woman inside a motel room in Jefferson County last year and leaving her body underneath a bed for days.
Matthew Lee Gilbert, 43, of John Rissler Road, was named in an 11-count indictment returned by a Jefferson County grand jury in April charging him with one count of murder, one count of kidnapping, one count of malicious assault, two counts of domestic battery third offense, one count of being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm, three counts of wanton endangerment involving a firearm and two counts of misdemeanor battery.
The victim, Ann Marie Pennington, 37, of Charles Town, died sometime between Nov. 30, 2013, and Dec. 1, 2013, according to a copy of Gilbert's indictment.

Matthew Lee Gilbert
Gilbert, who is represented by Charles Town attorney David Camilletti, has pleaded not guilty to the charges. West Virginia 23rd Judicial Circuit Judge David Sanders has scheduled a trial date in the case for July 29. A separate pretrial hearing is scheduled for July 14 in Jefferson County Circuit Court. Two status hearings are also set to take place in June.
Gilbert is accused of severely beating Pennington inside a room at the Northgate Inn, located at 106 Jefferson Terrace Road. Her body was discovered the morning of Dec. 5 after a housekeeper entered the room and police were called to investigate.
Gilbert had rented the room for a few days and was last seen at the motel the morning of Dec. 4. A manager told police Gilbert didn't pay the room rental fee for Dec. 4 and Dec. 5. When an investigator entered the room, he found blood inside and Pennington's body beneath the bed, records show.
Gilbert told police that on the night of Dec. 1, an argument ensued between him and Pennington. Gilbert told police he just "snapped" and began to punch, hit and kick Pennington. He said when he stopped hitting her, he picked her up off the floor and placed her on a couch. Gilbert told investigators Pennington was having trouble breathing and was gasping for air, records show.
He said that Pennington was dead when he awoke the next day. The firearm-related charges, two misdemeanor battery charges and one of the domestic battery third offense charges for which Gilbert was indicted stem from an Oct. 4, 2013, incident, during which he is accused of assaulting Pennington and another woman. He also allegedly grabbed a man's arm during the incident and pointed a shotgun at the three individuals, threatening to kill them if they called police.

SAGINAW, MI -- In a brief, sometimes unintelligible phone call, Stevie Wonder called the Saginaw WONDERfest a few minutes before 7 p.m. to express his gratitude for the festival celebrating his many achievements.
"I just want to thank everyone," he said. "I am excited about the WONDERfest and I wish I could be there."
Then, taking a more serious tone, he talked about the violence plaguing Saginaw.
"I want to help make a difference," he said, adding that we need to work together as a community "and I want to come there and be a part of the solution."
The shooting and killing has to stop, he said, and things have to change.
"People have the right to live and survive," he said, closing with "I hope to see you all soon. I love you, Saginaw."
Wonder's cousin, Rickie Smith of Saginaw, talked to the legendary singer/songwriter for 30 minutes after the call and announced that he is coming to next year's festival.
Wonder, known then as Stevland Morris, was born at the former St. Mary's Hospital and moved to Detroit when he was 4 years old. He released his first No. One hit, "Fingertips (Part 2)," when he was 13 and received many accolades, including being named a cultural icon, in the years since.
"I think it's been a beautiful event," said Reggie Williams, a community police officer with the Saginaw Police Department. "Families came together; you saw parents with children playing in the park and listening to the music.
"It was a good crowd for the first year and I can see the potential."
Engaging young people in the arts and athletics makes his job easier, he said, and positive events such as the Saginaw WONDERland can go far in turning Saginaw's problems around.
"Keep their minds busy," he said. "It's when our young people are wandering idly that they get in trouble. We'll see more people come out next year after they've heard what it's all about."
Organizers will start working on next year's event soon, said Shanonne Dunlap, general manager of NextMedia Group Saginaw, who had the idea three years ago and started actively planning it 16 months ago with the First Ward Community Center.
"We had a good crowd, a couple thousand people, though I'm sorry more didn't get to experience it. But I'm happy with the results."
They will review the pros and cons, "and I'm going to pick Wendy Dore's brain. She's done this so well for the past 20 years.
"In 2013, we may do a big benefit for Celebration Square in Saginaw. We already have a lot of ideas."
Wonder protege Harrell Holmes Jr., who closed the show, says he can't wait to go back to Los Angeles and tell Wonder about the weekend.
"It's been very emotional for me, playing in my hometown for the first time in eight years," said Holmes, who is working on an EP, attending the American Musical Eramatic Academy in Los Angeles and will open for the Black Eyed Peas later this fall.
"I can't wait to tell him how much love there was here, from the young people and the older ones. He needs to see this."

Tailbeep Talks to Festival
Tailbeep is a simple administration tool that sends an audible beep when it finds a specified search string in a log file. Version 0.45 now includes an interface to the Festival speech synthesis framework.
Tailbeep was originally designed to send an alarm about firewall intrusions by searching for the "DENY" string in /var/log/messages files. The command line tool can also be used for any file that a process writes to in Append mode, thereby requiring write privileges to /dev/tty* files.
Previously Tailbeep supported speechd, but now works together with the Festival free text-to-speech system. The current version adds the ability to speak a predefined message or the line number of the source location.
Tailbeep, licensed under GPLv2, is available for download as C source code from developer Thomas Glascock's soomka.com webpage.

Money will be used to expand commercial reach of targeted sequencing and sequence-enrichment solutions. [© ktsdesign - Fotolia.com]
RainDance Technologies, which provides microdroplet-based solutions for single-molecule and single-cell analysis, has closed a Series D financing round of $37.5 million. RainDance plans to use the money to drive new applications for its commercial targeted sequencing and sequence-enrichment solutions.
The firm aims to grow its global sales and support infrastructure. It will also leverage the funding to develop and commercialize new products for single-molecule digital PCR and single-cell analysis.
RainDance's microdroplet-based RainStorm™ technology enables researchers to perform fully automated biological analyses. Each RainStorm picoliter-scale droplet is the functional equivalent of an individual test tube and can contain a single molecule, cell, or reaction. The company says that its commercial products integrate with all next-generation DNA-sequencing platforms.
In February 2010, RainDance inked deals with Pacific Biosciences and Life Technologies that couple its technology with their respective sequencing platforms. Also in February the Academy for Medical Development and Collaboration said that it would provide access to RainDance's RDT 1000 sequence-enrichment platform to the Tri-Institutional Research Program, which includes 28 biomedical research institutes in New York. A month later Ambry Genetics, a CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited diagnostic and genomic services company, signed on to use RainDance's RDT 1000 for sequence enrichment and resequencing validation.
The RDT 1000 incorporates RainStorm microdroplet-based technology to amplify hundreds to thousands of genomic loci with high specificity and uniformity, RainDance states. It improves sample uniformity for less oversampling and efficient utilization of sequencer capacity, the firm adds. The RDT 1000 also reduces selection bias for decreased complexity and greater integrity of results, according to the company.
"We believe RainDance's microdroplet-based solutions will play an important role in high-growth research and diagnostic markets due to its single-molecule and single-cell analytical sensitivity, unprecedented number of data points per sample, fast time-to-result, and flexibility with multiple biological sample types including DNA or RNA, proteins, and cells," remarks Sherrill Neff from Quaker BioVentures, a new investor that co-led the Series D round. Neff joins RainDance's board of directors.
RainDance's commercial portfolio also includes automated instrumentation, customizable bioinformatics, consumables, and reagents for targeted sequencing, methylation, single-molecule digital PCR, and single-cell analysis.

Children with disabilities: Those abilities that make them uniqueEliana Tardio
I know children´s developmental charts very well, but that doesn´t stop me from celebrating my children´s individual developments. I feel proud of their accomplishments, and I share them everywhere, trying to motivate and inspire other parents that may not understand yet that living with disabilities is as simple as having different abilities.
Other parents sometimes look at me thinking that I'm nuts.
How can I, as well as others parents of children with disabilities, celebrate obvious and typical signs that show that our children have special needs? How can I be happy that my children are not performing at pace with other kids? Shouldn't I be ashamed?
Well, I can only be grateful to my kids. They have taught me to be patient and to enjoy them for who they are. We don't need to compare ourselves to anyone else to measure how well we are doing. I gave up on making others happy or comfortable. There are three people in this world whom I need to make happy: my two children and myself. Judges come and go, so why should we feel affected by them?
Why do we always need a test of abilities in order to accept others? Why do we use a genetic test to label someone as a "genetic mistake," or a chromosome count to measure somebody else's tendency to love? I've learned that none of these things measure the true content of a person's character, no matter what his or her abilities are.
Adopting this attitude is not in any way avoiding reality; we are just showing the world that everyone is different, and that we won't be forced to follow "rules" of what we're supposed to be able to do at a certain age. We are proud of being who we are and of doing our best every day!
A child with special needs brings new meanings to life. In certain ways, the situation forces you to slow down, and in the meantime, you learn to observe and admire your surroundings. You begin to understand that no matter how fast you move, things seem to work at their own pace. It takes time to learn this lesson. That's why, in the process of maturing and accepting this simple concept, you may find yourself frustrated or overwhelmed from trying to fit as many therapies as possible into your child's schedule.
Understanding that your child is always going to have a disability doesn't mean you give up. But it means you love your child because of his or her abilities and limitations — not in spite of them.
Isn't that real love?
Isn't that the way your child loves you?
There are many things that I will never be able to do, because I don't have the talent or ability for them, but I also know there are things that my children are already doing that I never did, even without having a disability, for example, I never learned how to skate, but look who skates like a professional at 8 years old! and also does plenty of things that I have been scared to try my entire life!
Ayelen dreams to be a ballerina. 1 of 11She started dancing when she was 4-years-old.
Emir is a great swimmer. 2 of 11He loves to swim and has been receiving swimming classes for a couple of months.
They love to do stuff together. 3 of 11Emir is the leader when it comes to facing physical challenges.
Emir loves adventures. 4 of 11Last year he took BOGA YOGA classes. He's passionate about paddle boards.
Emir learned to walk when he was around 20 months. 5 of 11But he started riding his tricycle since he was only 12 months.
Her life is all about being a princess. 6 of 11She has taught me that a princess is always a princess, no matter if she has to ride a tricycle.
Every time he flies at the swings, he makes me feel free. 7 of 11
I would love to have the strength and determination he has. 8 of 11There's nothing impossible for him.
I never learned how to skate. 9 of 11He did it in less than three months.
His yellow surfboard is his best friend when it comes to going to the beach. 10 of 11
These are some of the abilities that make us unique. 11 of 11We are not disabled, just differently abled!
My children have the ability to pull me out from my logical way of thinking. I love the fact that every photo I take of every simple thing they do makes me smile. These images are treasures that feed my heart and that when shared with the world teach great lessons about the power of different abilities and the uniqueness of each person.

Forget the grades, the hype, and all the analysis you're hear now that the NFL draft is over.
No matter how highly regarded prospects are, there is no way to be sure how a draft has turned out until those players have competed.
Joey Harrington -- No. 3 overall in 2002 -- was supposed to be the franchise saving quarterback for the Detroit Lions. Charles Rogers was supposed to be his favorite target.
Both were busts, with Rogers, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2003 draft, arguably the biggest draft bust ever.
But, as Lions president Matt Millen says, it does no good to look behind you, which in the Lions' case is especially true because they are bringing up the rear as the worst franchise in the NFL.
With that in mind, here is what the Lions hope they found in their newest acquisitions.
The Lions need their bold decision to select Calvin Johnson with the No. 2 overall pick to pay off. The 6-foot-5 239 pounder, with 4.3 speed in the 40 and hands of velcro, is being called the finest receiver out of college in years.
Johnson couldn't be coming to a better offense because he will get the opportunity to play for offensive coordinator Mike Martz. He has the most innovative offensive mind in the game.
As high as the expectations are for Johnson, the selection of Michigan State's Drew Stanton in the second round could be even more important.
If Stanton, whose talent, athleticism and toughness are unquestioned, can develop into a top quarterback, the Lions will prosper.
And like Johnson, Stanton should benefit from playing under Martz, who turned Kurt Warner into a league MVP in St. Louis.
Martz is as important to this franchise as head coach Rod Marinelli. That's because Martz is the one proven commodity the Lions have. We know the Lions will score points next season.
The key for the Lions is how well the defense is able to play.
The secondary is unsettled, and its best playmaker, Dre Bly, is gone. Teddy Lehman, a talented linebacker, can't stay healthy and the same applies to his linebacker mate, Boss Bailey. The Lions have to fix those areas.
They also have to hope that third-round pick Ikaika Alama-Francis, a defensive end from Hawaii, will give the consistent pass rush from the outside to go with the pressure that Corey Redding and Shaun Rogers bring from the interior.
Marinelli has set high expectations. His first-round draft choices, linebacker Ernie Sims last season, and now Johnson, meet them.
He is slowly changing the losing culture of the franchise. That said, no matter how promising things look, in the back of your mind you know, somehow, someway, the Lions will screw up.

I love these Patricia Sandals. I had a problem with the bottom of my foot for a very long time and after wearing these sandals for just a couple of months my problem went away and that was without seeing a doctor. I've been wearing them for almost a year now. I have all the colors but wish they would make them out of some bright colors like yellow, lime green, pink etc. I would buy them all. Thank you.

I have had crocs before, and like the way the soles feel. They are comfortable to walk in, but still give good sole/heel support. However, the first day I wore them , this sandal caused a sore where the strap rubbed against the top of my foot. I have had to wear a bandaid to let my foot heal. I think that once I break them in it will be ok, but a painful break-in process. I have not had this problem with other Crocs sandals I have purchased.

Album Review
Continuing to work with Conny Plank, who once again provides a compelling job as producer and engineer, Kraftwerk went right ahead and named their new album after their two remaining members -- an understandable enough move. Like the first two albums, Ralf and Florian still has not seen official re-release, for all that one can practically taste Kraftwerk's leap into the beyond on it. Given that this was the last album before the most famous lineup was formed and Autobahn was released, it's appropriate to listen to Ralf and Florian as a harbinger for the future, though perhaps all too easy. Take it on its own terms -- a further investigation of electronic possibilities in a more open-ended, less constantly structured fashion than would be the case later -- and Ralf and Florian becomes most enjoyable. "Kristallo" certainly shows how Kraftwerk was right on the verge -- various sequencer-driven rhythms and pulses provide the bed for what sounds like a free-flowing harpsichord solo or its near equivalent. "Tanzmusik," meanwhile, captures the sheer sense of beauty often present in the band's glory days, complete with what sounds like celebratory handclaps and bells, though crucially lacking the elegant melancholy that gave later songs total heft. "Tongebirge" is another one of the tracks that shows Kraftwerk right on the cusp of future changes, Schneider's swirling, lovely flute performance further treated with reverb and flange, while Hütter adds some immediately familiar (from later albums) synth tones. There's still no core rhythm or melody, though, the immediate distinction between this era of the band and the later one. Parts of the lovely, piano/flute-led "Heimatklänge," meanwhile, suggest some of David Sylvian's early instrumental solo work in its sweet appeal. Another hint of the future appears with the final song, thanks to the electronically distorted opening vocals chanting the title of "Ananas Symphonie." The inclusion of what sounds like steel guitar and banjo at the end is something else again.

The football wasn't more than a few feet away from Tyler Jenny when it was evident he wanted it back in his hand. He could only stand in place on his own 31-yard line as he saw his second pass of the last Saturday's game against Albright intercepted.
The Lions' Chris Stephens was running the other way with the football and Jenny stood, hands on his hips in disbelief. Lycoming has made a habit of early turnovers this year, so the disbelief wasn't in how Stephens could intercept the pass, but in how could the Warriors turn it over again?
It's not just that Lycoming's turnovers have come in the first quarter, but they've come on its first offensive possession. Saturday's interception by Jenny on the Warriors' second play was the fourth time this year he's turned the ball over on Lycoming's first offensive possession.
Somehow, only once has that turnover led to points. That came after a fumble against Wilkes when Williamsport graduate Jordan Fredo kicked a field goal to give the Colonels a 3-0 lead.
Jenny spoke following Lycoming's 20-17 overtime win over Albright with repentance. He knew the throw to receiver Ryan Umpleby wasn't the smart decision to make on that play, but he was trying to make a big play. He had John Sibel open on a quick slant, but Jenny tried to throw a bubble screen from the right hash toward the left sideline to Umpleby where there was potentially acres of running room if the pass was completed.
"That one was on me. I probably should have pumped it inside to John," Jenny said after the game. "We have to start the game faster. Maybe we need to make it more of a focus. But that play is my fault and only my fault."
Jenny was also intercepted to start the season-opening game at Brockport, and he was intercepted on the Warriors' first two possessions against Lebanon Valley. Lycoming has gone 2-2 in the four games where it's had the turnover on its opening possession.
But because the four turnovers have yielded only three points, it's tough to link them to the two losses. Lycoming had far more problems against Brockport and Lebanon Valley than just early turnovers. But they're concerning nonetheless.
Head coach Mike Clark goes into his coaches meeting every week with a list of goals for that week's game and one of those goals is always to score first. Those early turnovers have put that goal in jeopardy.
"The other day was bad. He had a much cleaner throw he could have made. Brockport was a bad decision," Clark said. "Turnovers in general are bad. Any sport that involves a ball is, for the most part, about possessions. You need the ball to score. So the numbers suggest it's better to punt than it is to just give it to the other team."
At this point, Lycoming can talk about the turnovers as merely a mild annoyance because the damage caused by any of the four hasn't been enough to lose a game. But it's more than just a mildly concerning trend.
In the three games this year where Lycoming hasn't turned the ball over on its first possession, twice it has scored a touchdown of its own. Against Misericordia, the Warriors scored on its first two possessions in what was a blowout, 52-14, win. They also scored a touchdown against Delaware Valley in a game which came down to the final possession.
While Lycoming has had a stellar defense - which only gets tougher to play against on a short field - to fall back on, it knows it can't sacrifice crucial possessions should it get to a potential playoff game. With their last four games decided by seven points or less, the Warriors understand how much can ride on each possession, and losing a scoring opportunity in a tight game is not an ideal way to play in the final weeks of the season.
"It's always an emphasis for us to start fast every game," Lycoming center Casey Strus said. "It hasn't always worked out for us, but when we start fast and kind of quiet them a bit, it takes that emotional high that teams have at the beginning of a game and drops it down. It gives us time to get our play going and do what we do best to be successful."

Real estate or real estate management is a business that needs time to learn its basics and grow your knowledge regarding its strategies and tactics. Though anyone can buy and sell some property, assets or anything precious or valuable, but handling property in an effective way and selling and buying valuable property is not an easy thing if you need to gain more profits in the business.
If its just a one time venture, you may not need to get into the basics or intricacies, but if you are going to handle a lot of valuable property based assets, you will have to manage it carefully. In order to get sufficient help and understand what it takes to have a well manage property, you have to consider some important things that can help you in the long run. In Australia, you can take help from well known and established dealers and real estate agents.
In order to understand what you have to do, here are some things that may help you:
The first important thing that you must learn, is the commission and the fees that most of the agents charge. You can compare the Real Estate Commission Melbourne with that of Real Estate Fees Sydney and Real Estate Fees Brisbane and see how much you need to pay for the services that are being offered. You may see that each and every service or support that the agents are going to provide will have its cost depending upon the complexity of the service. That is why different agents in various areas may charge you different Real Estate Commission fees.
After analyzing and understanding the cost and the service rates, you can compare the level and nature of services. Like if you are going to pay a certain amount according to the Real Estate Commission Sydney and Property Management Sydney then you can compare Property Management Melbourne to get an insight into the services and the level of quality you are getting for a particular amount.
Another way to get a more in-depth understanding of the real estate management services and processes is to see what they offer to the people who are asking how to sell my home or sell my house to get more profit? You may also Compare Local Real Estate Agents and see how they are managing their property businesses and have developed their trust.

Hotel Birth, Kidnapping, and a MidwifeDanielle
A little over a week ago I came across a news story about a missing pregnant woman from Georgia. There was evidence that she had given birth in a local hotel, and now her, the baby, and her midwife were all no where to be found.
The biggest concern was the large amount of blood left behind in the hotel room and the concern that maybe something went wrong and her, or her baby needed some kind of medical care the midwife may not have been able to provide inside the hotel room.
Being the birth junkie I am, I continued to follow the story, and it got more scary by the moment. Every new story published it got slightly stranger, and sounded like it was right out of a television show.
Then Holly Daenette Parker-Heard, the 27 year old mother who had given birth was discovered in a home in Cobb County Georgia.
Originally it was believed that after the mother gave birth to a healthy baby girl, she was kidnapped by the midwife and a man only identified as Christian Turner.
Can you imagine giving birth and being not only kidnapped yourself but these people making off with your baby? Seriously, right out of a CSI episode!
But now the police are investigating the mother herself as they are saying her story did not make much sense. Now they believe the mother was trying to sell her baby through a illegal private adoption, or on the black market. Whoa! Could the story take any more of a strange turn?
This is certainly a story I am going to continue to follow… what do you think about the allegations?

Rising star stays in character
By Chris Castillo
Special to the News
I was taking an axe to the stubborn root holly bush when the name of an actor popped into my head - Charlie McDermott.
Kris Kristofferson called this 16-year-old actor "the next Dakota Fanning."
I met McDermott, star of the film "Disappearances," at the South By Southwest Film Festival in Austin. Charlie got his start after answering a casting call for M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village." The young actor even got a few lines in the film's wedding scene. He said actor Adrien Brody (who portrayed a mentally challenged man) stayed in character throughout filming.
But it wasn't his start in movies that stayed with me. It was his passion for acting. Charlie wanted a part in "Disappearances" so bad he could taste it. Director Jay Craven, who adapted the story from the award-winning novel by Howard Frank Mosher, takes place during the Great Depression in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom.
Craven, who describes the film as a whiskey run adventure, saw some 130 young actors for the part of Wild Bill — a lead role. A few got a call back for the role, but none of the actors had prepared like Charlie.
He gave up his MP3 player, video games, TV and all electronics to get into character. In addition, he started chopping wood in his back yard to get a feel for the era. Craven said Charlie took the character of Wild Bill and grew into it. "Charlie was able to take a chance to discover something new," he said.
This role required authentic behavior that was specific to 1932, Craven said. And Charlie did what it took. At his father's suggestion, Charlie was driven out into the woods blindfolded. He was left in an unknown area and had to find his way home, Craven said.
In the story, Wild Bill (Charlie) chooses to follow his father (Kristofferson) on a whiskey smuggling run. The family hopes to make enough money to help their cattle survive the long winter.
This mystical tale focuses on the boy's rite-of-passage and his father's mysterious past while blending snapshots of fantasy with reality.
In one scene, Wild Bill carries his father in a makeshift stretcher through the snowy woods as seemingly immortal being follows their tracks. This truly showed Charlie's potential as an actor. You could feel him struggle to drag his injured father out of the woods as a ghostly figure stalks them. Charlie became Wild Bill. It was captivating.
Shot during a period of three nights, the cast endured extreme cold weather to create the memorable scene.
Charlie got the acting bug at age 5 and won't give up. "When you're acting you become that character," he said. During his time with Kristofferson, he said, the pair really connected and got to be friends. Charlie hopes to evolve as an actor, like Johnny Depp, who hasn't been type cast into a role.
"Disappearances" is screening throughout Vermont, and at the time of the interview it had not found a distributor.

Rothschild and colleagues1 admirably explored the topic of preventable injuries in elderly patients. Discharge planning may be fraught with more potential hazards than appear at first glance. For instance, the medication instruction sheets that are given to patients upon discharge are often written in small print, making them difficult, if not impossible, for the visually impaired patient to read. Additionally, instructions are frequently mistakenly written with medical abbreviations that a patient cannot comprehend. These issues can result in avoidable readmissions due to inappropriate use of medications. It might be useful for individual hospitals to study their discharge planning protocols and readmission rates and causes to see if modifications are advisable in these areas to ensure greater patient safety and compliance.

Paedophiles are secretly filming children in their own bedrooms and threatening to publish embarrassing pictures unless they perform sexual acts, according to a child-protection charity.
Hackers use viruses to exploit weaknesses in computer systems and take control of a child's webcam and turn it back on them, according to Cybersmile Foundation, which runs an online bullying and harassment helpline and says it is receiving more and more calls from teenage victims.
Experts say that special search engines allow hackers to find targets and that "an average 15-year-old" could use the technology, which uses viruses known as remote access trojans.

Hi there! My name is Amanda; I am 31 years old. I live in Texas with my wonderful husband, and my sweet little kitties!
I just love doing creative and crafty things! Ever since I was a little girl, I've always loved being able to make things with my hands. At the moment, I am working in jewelry design, jewelry making, bead embroidery, fabric embroidery, beaded flowers, beaded wirework, sewing, felting, aromatherapy, polymer clay, resin, and hard candy making!
I started out taking jewelry orders from friends and family while I was in high school. Now I participate in several local craft shows and fairs, sell to both local and international boutiques, and just recently published my first craft book! It has been such a fun and exciting experience so far!
I have discovered that most of my creations stem from childhood memories. Or just fun childish fairytale things in general. Wishing stars, princesses, fairies... I just adore all of these things, and I am so happy to find ways to bring them to everyone!
This brick stitch seed bead earring pattern is perfect for all types of projects! This pretty, watercolor style cherry blossoms pattern would make a gorgeous pendant, or a beautiful pair of earrings! It is a simple and elegant design.

You will receive a PDF file which will include the following:

WASHINGTON — By a veto-proof majority, the U.S. Senate yesterday approved a bill to delay regulations that would have resulted in drastic cuts in Medicaid reimbursements. The House had approved a similar measure by a 355-59 vote two weeks ago. The National Association of Chain Drug Stores and National Community Pharmacists Association, both in Alexandria, Va., and the Food Marketing Institute, Arlington, Va., all had worked for the bill's passage. The bill contains provisions that will delay ...

• Survival data were reviewed for 3330 open cardiac procedures from 1975 through 1984 at the William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital, Madison, Wis, and the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics, Madison. Respective operative survivals were 98.6% and 98.7% for myocardial revascularizations with vein graft or internal mammary artery (CABG), 96.2% and 96.8% for CABG reoperation, 97.8% and 95.9% for aortic valve replacement, 96.3% and 90.3% for aortic valve replacement plus CABG, 100.0% and 94.9% for mitral valve replacement, and 100.0% and 82.9% for mitral valve replacement plus CABG. There were no significant differences in six-year survival curves between hospitals despite threefold differences in average annual caseload (88 vs 294). This suggests that residency-directed cardiac surgery programs can function equally as well at a Veterans Administration hospital as at an affiliated university hospital.

Understanding Veins
Understanding Veins
The ongoing flow of blood from the heart to the body and back to the heart again is called circulation. Blood vessels carry blood throughout your body. Veins are the vessels that return blood to the heart.
Anatomy of a Vein
Veins have cuplike flaps called valves spaced along their inside walls. Valves open upward, so blood can move up the vein. Valves close to keep blood from falling back down the vein.
|A contracting muscle squeezes blood through the valve up the vein.
|A relaxing muscle closes the valve, holding the blood in place.

When it rains it pours.
Among the plant identification requests we got recently here in the Herbarium, there were three separate questions about this very odd plant. I can't quite figure out if it is suddenly being noticed now, for some reason, or if it really is a recent introduction, establishing itself quickly. I'm inclined to go with the first idea.
This plant is placed by botanists in what we call the "mulberry" family (or Moraceae), which, sure enough, contains the familiar mulberries (species of the genus Morus). The mulberry family is a large group, containing many thousands of additional species, most of which are woody (tree or shrubs) and found in the tropics. There are some important tropical tree members yielding timber, and of course, everyone knows of figs (the genus Ficus, with nearly 1,000 different species!). Those of you who are fans of "Mutiny on the Bounty" will remember the poor little breadfruit plants that got tossed overboard: breadfruit is another tropical species (Arctocarpus altilis…neither a fig nor a mulberry) --with edible fruits-- in the mulberry family.
But our Mystery plant is neither mulberry, fig, nor breadfruit. This is a pretty darn strange plant for our area, introduced from eastern Asia. It is potentially a tree, although most often it is seen as a shrub. Large individuals can attain considerable size. It has hard, tough wood, and its roots are rather yellowish. Of particular interest will be the very stout thorns that are produced on some branches: they can be dangerous. The leaves are handsome, dark green and glossy. The plants are either male or female...that is, bearing either staminate or pistillate flowers...not both. (The term, of course, for such a species is "dioecious".) Whether male or female, the flowers are small and inconspicuous, held in little roundish balls in the spring. In the fall, the female flowers' ovaries swell into a fleshy mass, which takes on a sort of strawberry appearance, eventually turning red or orange. When the fruit gets ripe and mushy, it's ready to eat. (I've never tried it.)
The leaves, thorns, and fruits that are produced by our mysterious plant might make you think of another mulberry-ish relative, the reasonably common "Osage-orange" (which is placed in yet another genus, Maclura). Osage-orange, however, is normally a smaller plant, with smaller leaves, and it produces a large, green, globose fruit, that looks sort of like a brain. As long as you have the fruits of both species, so characteristic of each, you won't have any trouble telling the two apart. (Without the fruits, though, you might need to enlist the aid of your friendly local botanist.)
Our Mystery Plant has been valued as a hedge plant, and because of its dense growth and the formidable thorns, it makes a very fine "living fence". But before you go out and try to start planting some of it, be aware that it SPREADS easily, forming sprouts all over the place. Getting rid of this thing, once it is out of control, can be difficult. And then there are those thorns. It might be best to stick with something else for landscaping. Something that affords a better tree-house
Answer: "Strawberry tree," Cudrania tricuspidata]

Worth discussing is how long Mark has been eating his current diet. The skin is substantially less susceptible to burn when you get more Omega-3 and less Omega-6 (a relatively simple switch led to a 2x time to burn in a hairless mouse skin cancer model). Mark obviously hasn't always had his same diet, re: his days of competitive marathoning and demolishing half gallons of ice cream.
I do think that's one of the more unflattering pictures of Mark I've seen. The other thing to take into account is that that picture is of him at 50, and he's 55 now. If you go compare with a picture here: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/about-2/mark-sisson/ it looks more like he's gone from 50 to 45 in terms of how his skin looks in the last 5 years. Maybe Mark can enlighten us about what his diet had evolved to by that point in time.
