In Reply.—Drs Riddle and Karl make some
important points regarding the article by Dr Hayward and colleagues.1 In my accompanying Editorial, I tried to emphasize
many of the same points. Controlling type 2 diabetes according to new American
Diabetes Association guidelines is more feasible now than it was at the time
of Hayward's study (1990-1993), due primarily to the introduction of new oral
agents and more physiologic strategies for using insulin. Of course, we need
long-term estimates on costs, which are not yet available.

'Parenthood,' 'Namaste No More': No one lies harder than Holly McClane's husband
A quick review of last night's "Parenthood" coming up just as soon as I give horseback riding a try...
Several of the subplots on "Namaste No More" were the sorts of things we've grown accustomed to with "Parenthood" by now: Julia's competitive streak played for laughs(*), Crosby and Jasmine edging closer towards becoming a couple, Adam and Kristina trying to help Max overcome some of his Asperger's issues. Others, though, offered some new sides to characters.
(*) Though do soccer leagues for 5-year-olds - particularly in crunchy Berkeley - really still keep score? My daughter's not much older than Sydney, and last night I took her to her weekly t-ball "game" where in every inning, every kid comes up to bat, gets a hit and scores a run, no matter what actually happens on the field of play as you or I would understand baseball rules.
In particular, I'm not sure I've ever seen Mae Whitman (whether on "Arrested Development," "Thief," here or anywhere else) seem as relaxed and happy as she did throughout the subplot about Amber befriending (and possibly more) Haddie's ex-boyfriend. It was kind of startling - and, of course, this will go badly for Amber (and probably for her mom, who will presumably come into conflict with Kristina when this gets out) - but overall it was a nice surprise and interesting take on the character when seen completely independent of Sarah.
The show followed up on Zeek's money trouble, and on the condoms Sarah found in his desk back in the pilot, with a very awkward, well-acted (by Craig T. Nelson and Bonnie Bedelia) scene where the four siblings confronted their parents and found out more than they wanted to know. Zeek moving in with Adam should be good for the show's serio-comic tone(**), and the current fracture in that marriage made the usual heartwarming song montage at episode's end feel far more bittersweet than usual.
(**) A nice example of said tonal balance: the sibs rehearsing for the intervention in Adam's car, then bickering over who gets to sit in the front. Some fights with your brothers and sisters never go away, no matter how old you are or how many other responsibilities you have.
What did everybody else think?

Holiday season is in full force, which means there are deals to be had! Yesterday Best Buy had a Killzone Trilogy & PS3 controller for $40 bucks which is a steal. I however decided to pass on it because I really wasn't a fan of Killzone. Remember back in the PS2 days how the original Killzone was supposed to be the Halo killer, and when the PS3 was being shown, how awesome Killzone 2 looked? Yep and now it's packaged as a throw-in for a controller.
I do admit than when I was at Best Buy I was there to pick up one thing…and then left with a bunch of other things that hopped into the basket.
The one thing I did want was NBA 2K12. Now before you start to wonder "why didn't he just get 2K13" let me explain. Saturday morning out of the blue I wanted to play a basketball game, but more realistic than arcade, so I popped in my copy of 2K11 and had some fun. I wanted to try 2K12 and as luck would have it, Best Buy was selling a used copy for $10 bucks. The copy I got I swear is brand new, just opened, and marked as used because it still has that new game smell and the case spine is still stiff.
Now the Batman Begins Steelbook was right in the front of the store for $10. Seeing how I have a swanky Blu-ray player now I might as well upgrade my DVD copy. They also had the Dark Knight Steelbook but I passed (you'll see why in a bit)
On the way out I stopped at the CD section where the Bargin Priced albums were (5-7 CDs) and I picked up a couple of CDs
I own Earth, Wind, & Fire's Greatest Hits on Vinyl, but I wasn't going to rip it for a while, so picking up one of these CDs works fine for me. I have to say these Playlist albums are great because they're inexpensive (cheaper than iTunes), and for someone who's unsure about an artist it's a good way to check them out. Anyways adding to my Christmas music playlist I picked up the Beach Boys Christmas album. There's 8 songs, and I only like 2 maybe 3 of them. I'm disappointed with this album and Colbie Caillat's Christmas Albums.
At Target I found a couple of CDs as well
Just like with Earth, Wind, & Fire, I'm in the same situation with Lionel Ritchie. I also added another Christmas album to the library.
Ok so I was also at the local Costco stocking up on stuff for Christmas (paper plates, cups, random foods, etc.) and I got caught up by the Otis Spunkmeyer cookie samples and ended up with a case of cookie dough. While I was talking to the sample lady, a father shows up, gets their kids little samples, eats his, goes back to the sample lady, and takes three more, and shovels them into his mouth. Dude likes the samples so much, shell out the $9 bucks for the cookie dough. I'm assuming sample lady gets a percentage of how many are sold, hook her up. Anyways remember when I passed on a Steelbook of Dark Knight earlier?
Well I bought a copy at Costco, along with 300. It doesn't make sense to own two copies of the same movie on the same format. They also had the trilogy for like $40, but I passed because I got caught up in the hype and pre-ordered the DKR, and then proceeded to buy the first two for $17 total.
I also picked up another Christmas album, this time from Lady A. This album is my favorite Christmas album so far because of this song
The video is also pretty good.
I added all my CD albums to my new laptop which took around a week and a half. Now comes audiobooks, and CD Singles (remember those?)
That's my current song count on iTunes. The weekend was spent rating and adding songs to various playlists. I love Smart Playlists because I can just group songs, and then automatically get sent to those lists. I can also customize the lists based on rating, playcount, etc.
This was my Sunday, watching Dallas play Cincy. I was rating songs from Lady A's first Christmas album.
If you have been reading my blogs, you'll know that I've been caught up in Simpson's Tapped Out
I was worried that because of the update my original iPad wouldn't be supported, so being able to still play it on there was a pleasant surprise. When the update happened everyone and their mother was trying to log in and I got hit with this screen
I like the update because everything switched to a Christmas theme, which means Christmas lights, and a whole new set of random jobs and objectives.
My current Springfield
This is one of the jobs that Apu has to do. This has to be the second craziest job next to the 90 Day growing corn on Cletus' farm.
With the update there was some problems, like friends list disappearing
My friends list that went missing for a couple of hours. It should look like this
And there was some random graphics glitches
Next to the Krusty Burger by the Nuclear Plant random items would show up
I leveled up, and while at lunch I unlocked Bart
But one of my favorite characters has to be Comic Book Guy
Best part about it is one of his jobs that I activate before I go to sleep is CosPlay CBG.
Some of my favorite parts about the winter Springfield is that you are given a free Christmas tree
If I had City Hall I'd move it there but for now, a reflecting pool is good enough.
The Mapple Store
And the Brown House from last night's episode of The Simpsons.
I like this game because every couple of hours, I log in, collect cash & Santa Coins/Donuts from taxes and friends, set my characters to their tasks, and go about my day. Once I earn enough cash I'll start removing my house tax farms, and build my Springfield. The area around the school and the Mapple Store is set, and once I earn enough Santa Coins I'll build Barney's Bowling Alley.
If you play Simpsons Tapped Out, come find me: AztecsAlum. I have a ton of Brown houses that always has Santa Coins.
Ok well that's the blog, but if you want to continue reading after my name, I'm gonna write about what I thought about Homeland and more random theories for the Season Finale *could be spoilers*
Well that's all for now, more later!
-Ok so last night Abu Nazir was killed because he never left the building. He basically said he would never leave the country when he had Carrie, and Roya said the samething. What I don't get is 1. Why didn't the various Strike Teams notice this part of the building, 2. Why did that one guy not call for backup before entering that little room, 3. WHO LEAVES THEIR TEAM LIKE THAT?
-I was in a bit of a shock when Carrie thought one of her own was helping Nazir.
-There needs to be more Roya in the show. I think she could be crazier than Carrie.
-I can't stand Dana. I get she's angry because of the situation but damn every episode she's getting more and more annoying
-Season Finale is going to be crazy. I think the mole in the government is gonna do something, and it might be at whatever ceremony that is going to take place where Brody, and Carrie are at.
-Saul being called Bear made me laugh
-I think the following characters might be killed off the show in the Season Finale:
A. Brody's Family: They are already being phased out of the story. It looks like Jessica and Brody are gonna divorce, Jessica wants to be with Mike, Dana hates the situation she's in (did I mention I can't stand her), and the boy is just thrown into the mix
B. Mike: Brody's best friend, who's in love with Brody's wife. Has questions about Brody, and would do eveything he could to protect Brody's family
C. Saul: Estes already has a black ops team waiting to kill Brody, and Saul knows too much. This was an off the books operation, so his death would be easy to cover IF Saul doesn't just walk away
and the one that would be a shock especially because there's going to be a Season 3
D. Brody: He already let the VP die, he was shaken by Abu Nazir's death, and this could be the big moment the terrorist wanted.

Look fantastic, well made. Only peeve was installation. Easy install front seats; correct. Easy install rear seats; false (unless you want to unbolt & remove seats). Took a couple of hours on the first rear seat to work out a way to get it on & tightened down. Once figured out the second was easier. Driver seat is electric. Can't get strap that runs under seat from side to side on. No way to pass under seat & through track/electronics. Overall very happy though & would purchase again.

Applications of Human Performance Models to System Design / Edition 1by Grant R. McMillan
Pub. Date: 11/01/2007
Publisher: Springer US
The human factors profession is currently attempting to take a more proactive role in the design of man-machine systems than has been character istic of its past. Realizing that human engineering contributions are needed well before the experimental evaluation of prototypes or operational systems, there is a concerted effort to develop tools that predict how humans will interact with proposed designs. This volume provides an over view of one category of such tools: mathematical models of human performance. It represents a collection of invited papers from a 1988 NATO Workshop. The Workshop was conceived and organized by NATO Research Study Group 9 (RSG.9) on "Modelling of Human Operator Behaviour in Weapon Systems". It represented the culmination of over five years of effort, and was attended by 139 persons from Europe, Canada, and the United States. RSG.9 was established in 1982 by Panel 8 of the Defence Research Group to accomplish the following objectives:
• Determine the utility and state of the art of human performance modelling.
• Encourage international research and the exchange of ideas.
• Foster the practical application of modelling research.
• Provide a bridge between the models and approaches adopted by engineers and behavioral scientists.
• Present the findings in an international symposium.

Average size of establishments: a look at industries
April 26, 2012
For the private sector overall, the average size of establishments—the ratio of employment to the number of establishments—rose through each of the years of the 1990s economic expansion (1994–2000). From 2000 to 2007, the average establishment size fell slightly during each year—regardless of whether the economy was expanding or contracting. The trend in the average size of establishments changed in almost all industries during the 2000s expansion (2003–2007) compared with the 1990s expansion.
After the 2001 recession, the trend in the average establishment sizes for industries was either to slower growth or to an accelerated decline. In cyclical industries such as construction and retail trade, the average size grew during the 1990s economic expansion and then later grew at a lower rate during the 2000s expansion.
In industries such as wholesale trade, transportation and warehousing, and administrative and support services, the average size grew during the 1990s economic expansion and then became flat during the 2000s expansion.
Industries whose average size grew during the 1990s but declined during the 2000s included manufacturing, information, real estate and rental and leasing, health care and social assistance, and arts, entertainment, and recreation.
In the finance and insurance, management of companies and enterprises, and educational services industries, the average size of establishments was flat or declined during the 1990s economic expansion and declined more rapidly during the 2000s expansion.
These data are from the Business Employment Dynamics program whose data are derived from data from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages. To learn more, see "The declining average size of establishments: evidence and explanations" (PDF), by Eleanor J. Choi and James R. Spletzer in the March 2012 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.

In this delightful companion novel to Off the Page, #1 New York Times bestselling authors Jodi Picoult and her daughter and cowriter, Samantha van Leer, present the YA novel that started it all! Filled with romance, adventure, and humor, the magic jumps off the page (literally) in a story you'll never forget.
What happens when happily ever after…isn't?
Delilah is a bit of a loner who prefers spending her time in the school library with her head in a book—one book in particular. Between the Lines may be a fairy tale, but it feels real. Prince Oliver is brave, adventurous, and loving. He really speaks to Delilah.
And then one day Oliver actually speaks to her. Turns out, Oliver is more than a one-dimensional storybook prince. He's a restless teen who feels trapped by his literary existence and hates that his entire life is predetermined. He's sure there's more for him out there in the real world, and Delilah might just be his key to freedom.
A romantic and charming story, this companion novel to Off the Page will make every reader believe in the fantastical power of fairy tales.

I expected more from Picoult. This book seems more about getting her daughter published than the great writing we're used to from this writer.
Good book
I really enjoyed it and it was a great plot with a book actually in tge story, i think that you could really relate to it and that it was a great idea to get her daughter incolved in writing the story
That book was amazing perfect for any beginner authors. I was very inspired that Jodi and her daughter Samantha would write a book together. And being I'm a young author it inspires me to write more. It was a excellent book I recommend it for anyone
Great job Jodi & Samantha!!!

Creating Social Networks and Online Communities that Last
Print book
Social networks and online communities are reshaping the way people communicate, both in their personal and professional lives. What makes some succeed and others fail? What draws a user in? What makes them join? What keeps them coming back? Entrepreneurs and businesses are turning to user experience practitioners to figure this out. Though they are well-equipped to evaluate and create a variety of interfaces, social networks require a different set of design principles and ways of thinking about the user in order to be successful.
Design to Thrive presents tried and tested design methodologies, based on the author's decades of research, to ensure successful and sustainable online communities -- whether a wiki for employees to share procedures and best practices or for the next Facebook. The book describes four criteria, called "RIBS," which are necessary to the design of a successful and sustainable online community. These concepts provide designers with the tools they need to generate informed creative and productive design ideas, to think proactively about the communities they are building or maintaining, and to design communities that encourage users to actively contribute.
"This book provides the necessary antidote to the thoughtless, random and in too many cases desperate nature of many of today's attempts to build online communities." – Carl Zetie, Strategist, IBM
"Howard's theoretical stance is firmly grounded in a lifetime of practical experience which makes fascinating and sometimes very amusing reading. Have you ever wondered why some networks and communities thrive and others fail? Read this book and find out." –Dr. Jurek Kirakowski, Senior Lecturer, Human Factors Research Group, Cork, Ireland
"Professionals in technical communication will find this book packed with relevant information, especially given the evolving role of communicators in new media. Writers and editors can put best practices to use in working with their employers, with clients, or within their own professional lives."--Angel Belford, Technical Communication, Volume 58, Number 1, February 2011
"This important work fills a gap in the literature in its proposal of methods to fuse technology with practical community growth and sustainability… [Howard] more than knows the subject, considering the very prominent place he holds in the human computer interaction and usability communities… [Howard] very smoothly conveys his thoughts in an eloquent, easily accessible manner that any level of reader would be able to penetrate…. This surprisingly deep yet easily readable book seamlessly incorporates the research of people such as Bruce Tuckman, Leon Festinger, and Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff, among others… Highly recommended. All levels of academic and professional readers, especially those who create and maintain online communities."--CHOICE

Kohl's net income up 20%
Kohl's Corp. beat analysts' expectations with a 20% gain in net income for the third quarter, but it offered a moderate view of the holiday season.
The Menomonee Falls-based department store chain said Thursday that its third-quarter net income rose to $193 million, or 63 cents a share, compared with $160 million or 52 cents a share in the same period last year. Analysts had predicted the retailer would report earnings of 61 cents per share, at the top of Kohl's most recent projection.
For the fourth quarter, the company raised its earnings estimate to a range of $1.14 to $1.24 cents per share, a penny below Wall Street's current consensus estimate of $1.25.
"We were pleased with our sales performance in the third quarter," Chief Executive Officer Kevin Mansell said.
After the report, Kohl's shares closed up 5 cents to $54.64.
The company's view of the fourth quarter is realistic, he said in an interview. Some analysts are making a quick assumption that things are improving, Mansell said. But consumers are not better off than last year, and may be worse off, he said.
"They are shopping more carefully, really indentifying when retailers give the best value," Mansell said. "There's no normal shopping."
The depressed level of sales for the holiday season last year is a new benchmark, a new reality for retailers, he said.
For the nine months ended Oct. 31, 2009, net income was $560 million, or $1.83 per share, compared with $549 million, or $1.79 per share for the nine months ended Nov. 1, 2008.
Net sales increased 3.1% to $11.5 billion from $11.2 billion a year ago. Comparable store sales decreased 1.3% for the same period.
The company said that, for the fourth quarter, it expects total sales to increase between 3% and 6%, and comparable store sales to range between negative 1% and positive 2%.
Earlier projections had called for same-store sales to decline in a range of 3% to 5% for the fourth quarter.
During the first nine months of 2009, Kohl's opened 56 new stores. The company ended the quarter with 1,059 stores in 49 states, compared with 1,004 stores in 48 states at the same time last year.
Also Thursday, Wal-Mart Stores Inc. reported third-quarter profit rose 3.2%, helped by inventory reductions, and forecast sales for the fourth quarter would be little changed.
Net income increased to $3.24 billion, or 84 cents a share, in the period ended Oct. 31, from $3.14 billion, or 80 cents, a year earlier, the Bentonville, Ark.-based company said. Analysts predicted earnings of 81 cents, the average of 24 estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Wal-Mart Chief Executive Officer Mike Duke cut inventory 4.1% and accelerated efforts to curb expenses. Sales at U.S. stores open at least a year declined 0.4% in the quarter, missing Wal-Mart's projection that same-store sales would be unchanged to up 2%.

Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: I Was Beating Garcia Easier Than Molina!
Amir Khan is confident there will be no repeat of the mistakes he made the first time around against Danny Garcia in the rematch he hopes can be arranged for late 2013.
Khan returned to winning ways last weekend with a 10th-round stoppage triumph over Carlos Molina in Los Angeles, five months after losing his WBA light-welterweight title to WBC champion Garcia in Las Vegas.
In that defeat - his second in a row following a controversial points loss to Lamont Peterson in December 2011 - the 26-year-old Bolton fighter was knocked to the floor three times en route to a fourth-round stoppage.
He subsequently switched trainers from Freddie Roach to Virgil Hunter.

Why don't you chase a rematch with Prescott, Amir? Breidis will come to the U.K too!
Start from scratch and erase that brutal loss.

Glad that you found a caregiver that you like! Sorry about your experience at the ER. If the ER is that bad, who knows what inpatient is like. Depending on where you live, 3-4 hours may be standard to wait in the ER. In some big cities it's 12 hours or longer. Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly!
Posted 05/29/2012
Oh, so sorry for the horrible weekend! Glad you found out now versus in a life threatening situation, glad you found a place that makes you feel taken care of.

Hello, and welcome to the internet's newest personal blog.
I'm your host, Val, and I'll be sharing a lot of different things with you in my upcoming posts.
For starters, I'm really into trying new things. My everyday life is relatively mundane: work, eat, sleep, repeat. In my spare time, though, I explore a ridiculously huge range of topics, hobbies and activities.
Just some of the things I've tried my hand at are learning to play the piano, write poetry, and take landscape photographs. I've also volunteered to help maintain hiking trails in my part of the country, participated in historical reenactments, and visited over 40 of the 50 United States.
Along with all of this, I also can be very particular when it comes to spending money, and will often do detailed research before buying something. Any helpful tips or suggestions I come up with during this process will also be shared here.
Thanks for visiting Val's Muses and Views, and we'll see you again soon!

Dewhurst's 'Frozen' Video: More Proof We're Losing Greatness
Lt. Gov. Dewhurst took a page from the Walt Disney campaign tactics playbook.
Is it one of the worst political ads of all time or what? Is it even real? These were the thoughts we were wrestling with as we took in a minute-long commercial featuring a Dan Patrick animated picture singing about how he changed his name from Danny Goeb. The ad alleges -- erroneously, as The Austin American-Statesman recently pointed out -- that Patrick did this to dodge his creditors and taxes. And the results are an example of political mudslinging at both its worst and its best.
We like to picture how this video happened: Some campaign staffers for Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst were sitting around discussing how best to get their boss back into the running -- Dewhurst is currently polling about 20 points behind Patrick, Republican rival for the lieutenant governor nomination -- and someone starts humming "Let It Go," the smash-hit song from the smash-hit Disney movie Frozen.
"Eureka!" another staffer cries. "I've got it! We shall verily triumph over Patrick with a clever advertisement employing the classic form of political assassination known as parody! And we shall use that song!"
In our imagination, this is where the staffer points at the humming staffer and commands him to start singing. They work for hours and hours, thinking of all the stuff they've already accused Patrick of, and how it can best be employed in a lyric form. They put together a video that a five-year-old Orson Welles would mock but that a five-year-old Ed Wood would have called genius.

It will go out into the world, the staffers imagine, and appeals to both those young'uns who love the Disney and those who will just think the whole damned thing is so funny they'll switch sides and vote for Dewhurst in the runoff election (a.k.a. the kind of election that, sadly, almost no one votes in, not even our granny). The day will be saved and everyone on Dewhurst's campaign will be so happy. We're sure this was the rationale behind the video, and man, is that line of thinking totes adorbs.
Dewhurst's campaign is swirling the drain, and anyone who thought "The Ballad of Danny Goeb" would change that (reverse swirl?) has got another think coming. Stranger things have happened, but we're not betting on it. But the video did get us pondering one thing: We sure are going to miss Dewhurst when he is (most likely) forcibly ushered off the political stage in a few weeks. His debates with Patrick have been like watching a tired yet overconfident beagle (Dewhurst) try to get the ball from a very hyper, yappy terrier (Patrick).
And the ads. Lord, will we miss the ads. Whether it's Patrick's false claims -- as called out, again, by the Austin American-Statesman -- that the entire media agrees with his campaign that Dewhurst is an ass (we're translating a bit there), or, you know, Dewhurst utilizing the wonder of Disney to accuse Patrick of changing his name and lying a whole lot, we've enjoyed it all. But especially that Disney ad.

John Love, Bataan Death March survivor, dies at 91
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- John E. Love, a Bataan Death March survivor who led a campaign to change the caption on a historic march photo from the Associated Press, has died. He was 91.
Love died Monday after a long battle with cancer, said Gerry Lightwine, pastor at La Vida Llena, an Albuquerque retirement home where Love lived.
As a 19-year-old member of the New Mexico Guard, Love was one of 75,000 Filipino and American soldiers who were taken captive by the Japanese in World War II when the U.S. forces surrendered in the province of Bataan and Corregidor Island in April 1942.
In all, tens of thousands of troops were forced to march to Japanese prison camps in what became known as the Bataan Death March. Many were denied food, water and medical care, and those who collapsed during the scorching journey through Philippine jungles were shot or bayoneted.
For the remainder of the war, Love was forced to work in a Japanese copper mine until being liberated in 1945.
In 2009, Love joined with other survivors to change the caption on one of the most famous photos in the AP's library about the march. The photo actually showed an Allied POW burial detail.
