We have just returned from the Aegean and the holy land on the CELEBRATION and we had a great holiday. We had read some bad reviews about this ship but I don't know why. We were in an adapted cabin as I am disabled and we were pleasantly surprised how big it was, It had a fixed bed which they call Queen size but in fact it is King size any very comfortable. We were looking forward out of the ships window which made a change from only seeing one side of the ship. The steward who looked after us was called Ver and was so helpful and attended to all our needs. The bathroom is still small but would accommodate a wheelchair if needed. I used my electric scooter on board and as the lifts are out of bounds when the safety drill takes place the staff came for me and took me to my muster station. Fortunately for them it was only one deck below. I say that because I am no light weight Getting back to the lifts, when we first used them I was trapped by the doors each time so we reported this and the next day it was fixed and we had no more bother . Everything on this cruise was good. The food.in all the eating places, the drinks were good and not watery and we never had any bother finding a sun bed although most days we preferred a shady spot as it was very hot especially in Israel. As I find that hardly anyone who is disabled tells it as it is so I hope this will help in a small way.
We have already booked our next cruise for Christmas and are looking forward to It but it is on the majesty We hope it will be as good. I did not go on any excursions but my husband went to Jerusalem and found it tiring but the guide was very knowledgeable so he enjoyed it very much. We got off the ship in Antalia and had a lovely wander about. Roll on Xmas.
This port was negotiable in my scooter but a bit of high ramps . We were given help when needed and so I did not feel a encumberment.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
(PS3, PC, Xbox 360, Macintosh )
Everything Call Of Duty should have been. 9/10By joe dirt Score:
Aug 22, 2012 2:22PM PST
Counterstrike has been a main-staple in fps since its release in 2000, and has only grown since. The series has progressed for 12 years while still always maintaining its core elements. So when you play a counterstrike game there's no mistaking it for anything other than that. And the newest entry into the series remains just that. It's different than CS:source, but in essence its also the same.
The maps have been graphically enhanced, new player models have been added, the UI has been re-done, and the guns have a slightly more solid look. But its still the same guns, same maps, same modes, and same core mechanics that have been in every other counterstrike game. And that's not a bad thing. Counterstrike is staying true to itself, though there are new voice overs which sound similar to that big activision franchise, and background music that plays during the round (if anyone knows how to disable this please let me know). The teams have been reduced to 5v5 so gameplay seems a little slower in comparison to source, but not as slow as say squad rush on bf3 on the bigger maps.
There are no silencer attachments for the m4a1 or the m9 tactical, which wouldn't have any benefit if they were available anyway, except maybe the badass cool factor. But I was surprised nonetheless when I discovered this. I experienced occasional lag almost every round, usually just once or twice for a period of 5 seconds or so, a little warning indicates when you've lost connection and gives you 25 seconds to regain it before kicking you. I have not been kicked due to connection loss as of yet.
A few critical notes I'd like to add are the the voting feature, which was wonderful in previous installments of counterstrike. But the addition of options like scramble teams and change map is sometimes a bit annoying. Not necessarily the options for these things, but the timing. For example, if one team is getting raped anyone on that team could call a vote to scramble the teams. Meaning if that vote passes it will instantly mix up the teams NO MATTER WHAT IS GOING ON AT THAT TIME, and a new round will begin. I've been involved in a few occasions where someone had planted the bomb, and the other team either knew they didn't have enough time to defuse, or were out numbered, so they called a vote to scramble the teams, or change the map, and the map changed or the teams were scrambled before the round had ended. That is extremely frustrating at times.You can be in an intense firefight, about to plant a bomb, and then have the map switch right in the middle of planting it. or at any point, I'd like to see the current round be able to end before any of these things happen. So far that's my only gripe, for an initial release it is indeed a rock solid game.
I've yet to see hacking, bugs, glitches, or anything else wrong with this game. One other minor gripe might be that as of now there is no zombie mode like in source, at least not on the ps3...yet. I know its coming eventually. I'd also like to see custom maps again, and the addition of a server browser would be nice. as of now you only pick a mode you want to play and you are then thrown into a random map rotation. If I want to play office I want to play office, I don't want to wait for 3 rounds while the server goes through its rotation to get to office. and be warned if you're using a six axis against someone with a keyboard and mouse set up you only have about a 45% chance of beating them one on one. That's obviously a rough estimate but its hard to imagine that the keyboard and mouse people don't have at least a slight advantage.
This game is everything I wanted call of duty to be, in fact, it's everything call of duty should have been. its fair, balanced, fun, and competitive. It doesn't keep you playing via unlocks, or give you overpowered killstreak rewards. It keeps you playing because its fun, and fair. When you die you know it wasn't because of some perk or attachment combination, you know it was something you did. This game has the potential to be ps3's main-staple competitive team based game. And for 15 dollars its an absolute steal. I have been waiting for a long time to see a counterstrike console port (yes I know about the xbox version released a few years ago, but that doesn't count) and this one definitely lives up to my expectations of everything I hoped it would be. 9/10

About ACA
The Atlantic City Alliance (ACA) is a private, non-profit destination marketing organization for Atlantic City, New Jersey. Created in 2011 as part of transformative S-11 legislation to reposition Atlantic City, the Atlantic City Alliance is charged with promoting the destination as a year-round seaside and marina resort offering visitors a wide array of gaming and non-gaming amenities.
As outlined in the NJ S-11 legislation, the ACA is privately funded by a $30 million annual assessment to the AC casinos for a total commitment of $150 million through 2016. The ACA operates under a marketing agreement with the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA), an economic development organization. The ACA is not member based and is not funded by a tourism tax or hotel tax.
Since 2012, Atlantic City Alliance has:
- Launched the "Do Anything, Do Everything, Do AC™" marketing campaign that was adopted and adapted destination-wide for economic development, convention/meeting, air service and small business and civic pride campaigns. "DO AC" included advertising, global communications, social media, online and digital marketing, out-of-home, web, promotion and experiential marketing. The campaign focused on the beach, the Boardwalk, the non-gaming amenities, and the businesses and attractions inside and outside of the casinos.
- Attracted one million incremental new visitors to Atlantic City as a result of ACA produced citywide events. Partnering with organizations like Live Nation on beach concerts produced a $24 million economic impact. ACA also worked with IMG/AVP, Pyro Spectaculars by Souza, Fireworks by Grucci and independent event producers to draw visitors to the beach and Boardwalk during high, low and shoulder seasons.
- Partnered in the triumphant return of the Miss America Competition, Nik Wallenda's high-wire walk over the beach with Tropicana Casino Hotel, and bringing LGBT events back to AC including Sand Blast and FIBO.
- Focused communications initiatives on promoting the positive, defending the image of AC and changing media perception. Since 2013 there have been 5,306 positive stories about Atlantic City. ACA events and marketing drove nearly half of the positive coverage with 2,269 stories. Today media refer to AC as:
- A destination that has something for everyone three times more often
- A destination that has more than just gaming twice as often
- Making a comeback twice as often
- Led the destination's crisis response and marketing program after Super Storm Sandy in 2012 and again during the casino closings in 2014.
- Created a $4 million convention subsidy program with Meet AC to win new convention and group business. The convention subside program has realized over 60,000 hotel room nights for Atlantic City to date with another 60,000 room nights in consideration since 2013.
- Launched a public arts program— "Artlantic"—in partnership with the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority to transform vacant lots in community and visitor public space in the Tourism District adjacent to the World Famous Boardwalk. The centerpiece of the public arts program is four original, 3D sound and light shows on Historic Boardwalk Hall created by Moment Factory. Unique in the world and hailed by Apple as innovative, the shows wowed 600,000 visitors.

OBR Draft Prospect Profile: Zac Dysert
Quarterback - Miami, Ohio
At 6'3" 231lbs, Zac has the build of an NFL QB with a frame that should allow him to add bulk and strength. On tape, Zac showcases tremendous touch and placement, often leading receivers perfectly on deep and intermediate passes both to the side line as well as on vertical routes. He possesses a strong arm with high and tight release. On more than one occasion during his film study I noted a pass that traveled more than 60 yards in the air, in stride to his WR. He showed an impressive ability to place the ball in spots where only his WR could make the catch. He showed what I felt was great accuracy on intermediate and deep passes but struggled more with short / timing routes.
Zac throws on the run extremely well and does so while maintaining his power and accuracy. It will be interesting to see how well he runs the 40 at his pro day because he doesn't appear to be fast by NFL standards but does appear to have the confidence to run if and when needed. His ability to run and improvise will be seen as a plus by whichever team that drafts him.
Zac shares what I feel to be an eerily similar ability / appearance when evading pressure and extending a play like that of his Miami predecessor, Ben Roethlisberger. I see a little Brett Favre in him as well, not in terms of his arm strength, but in terms of his ability to make and extend plays. Similar to both aforementioned NFL QB's, Zac makes plays with defensive linemen hanging on his legs, hanging on his jersey, or barreling straight down on him. He can shift his weight, his upper body, and his hips to elude the rusher and buy more time; all while keeping his eyes up field.
In 2012 it appears he played more from the shotgun but in 2011, as well as in his senior bowl practice tape, he shows the ability to play under center more than most might think -- including running an effective play action, bootleg and showing fluid 3, 5 and 7 step drops. He appeared to be able to read defenses from under center pre-snap and shows good football instincts and awareness. Zac appears to make good decisions with the football and when extending the play he is very aware his position inside/outside the tackle as it pertains to intentional grounding and gets rids of it when he can. He innately looks for the first down marker on scrambles and protects the ball.
If you watch the tape, many of his throws appear to be first reads or reads where he only looks at one half of the field. He will need to have sold NFL scouts on his ability to read zone defenses and go through his progressions. He didn't show the ability to consistently shift the defense by looking off the play / or pump faking to move the safeties. It appears he stares down receivers from time to time as well. He has a tendency to sail the ball on short routes and can deliver the ball late and/or off target on some timing routes.
Zac tends to evacuate the pocket prematurely in favor of the run or to extend the play and while it's hard to blame him given his offensive line at Miami, he won't be able to do that in the NFL. While he has mobility and is great on the bootleg, he will need to build confidence in the pocket and strengthen his throwing technique and pocket movement: consistently stepping up, moving his feet and finding the play with his arm from the pocket.
Zac often took the ball from shotgun and took a single step drop, or simply pivoted, planted and threw. He will need to show that he can consistently take the ball from under center, drop from shotgun and step up in the pocket at the next level.
While some may point to the talent gap and question the fact Zac's production "only" came because played for Miami and was pitted against lesser talent, others may point to the growing list of NFL players that hail from the MAC and the fact that talent can come from anywhere. Nonetheless, Zac Dysert is an intriguing NFL prospect who has flown under the radar. He brings a strong skill set into the draft and has the production that NFL scouts will want to see. He's big, mobile, and has a strong arm with the accuracy to drive the ball into any window at the next level if provided a pocket to throw from. I believe he becomes even more effective on bootleg plays where I feel he can throw on the run better than anybody in this year's draft.
A GM will have to believe that Zac can consistently develop the ability to make multiple reads and progressions at the NFL level / speed and that he can quickly absorb; adapt; and implement new coaching. He will need to work on and improve his timing routes which should get better with practice and building rapport with his receivers.
While Zac does bring great football instincts and an ability to extend the play while under duress, he will have to prove that he can consistently stick in the pocket, adjust to the pocket and make plays with his arm.
It's no secret that the QB position fetches the most value and weight in the draft process and ultimately I feel Zac Dysert will be off the board by the time the 3rd round ends this year.
Zac definitely has what I consider one of the highest NFL ceilings in this draft class. His upside and potential is pro bowl level. If you subscribe to the philosophy that coaching trumps talent, then you might be the GM who takes Dysert in the 2nd or 3rd round and allows him to develop under your current starter for a year or two, a la Aaron Rogers or Colin Kapernick. However, if you are a GM whose focus is finding and developing arm strength talent, then you might decide to roll the dice on an elite arm that can make all the throws, but project, like Tyler Bray or Mike Glennon instead. It all comes down to what you value, what system your team runs, and the level of concern you've assigned to each QB's negatives.
If NFL scouts feel the same way I do, many fans could be surprised how early Dysert is taken off the board. I feel that many of Zac's deficiencies can be corrected with NFL coaching, repetition, and hard work behind a starter for a year or two. Among this year's QB draft class, Zac Dysert is in my top 4 and I believe he has more upside than projects like Matt Barkley, Ryan Nassib, EJ Manuel, or Tyler Bray.
Here are my game notes and cut ups below:
Senior Bowl Film – North Practice Offense vs Defense
· Under center, 3 and 5 step drops, play action and pitch
· Great deep pass in stride, some good timing routes to outside with ball placed perfectly
· Good high release
· Good accuracy on throws out of backfield
· 2 near sacks that he eluded on play action where OLB beat block and had immediate pressure
Senior Bowl Film - North Practice, 7 v 7
· First throw is across the field, driving ball to the outside sideline into coverage. Ball seemed to take a while to get there or the timing was off, WR had to wait out of his break
· Appears to be very fluid in a 5 step drop from under center
· Fluid in quick 2-3 step drop, read and hits quick slant/curl
· Timing out of several of the routes needs polish; seems a tad late on throws yet this could be because he's working with a new group of WR's
· Appears to go with a single read instead of scanning for options
· Good vertical route passing, quick release, on target in tight coverage
Zac Dysert vs Temple, 2011
· Excellent throw on the run, bootleg, over the shoulder, on the sideline, away from defender where only WR can catch: 30 yard pass in the air
· Excellent touch and accuracy on location on many of his passes
· Shows ability to avoid rush, escapes pocket to the outside, switches ball from inside to outside arm as he runs
· Quick, single reads; stares down WR
· Takes several snaps from under center, showing comfort dropping back in pocket
· Shows elusiveness and awareness to escape rush while keeping eyes down field to make passing play on the run, on target with good touch
· 2nd QTR – 13:53 mark in game, 5:08 on youtube – From under center, drops back in 5 step drop. He quickly looks at option in middle then scans to the sideline and locks in. Shows great touch and accuracy; 30 yard throw across the field; places ball on the WR's outside shoulder, in stride, over his shoulder on the side line.
· In play action, tried to use his feet too early to escape pocket instead of adjusting in the pocket and continuing to read the play, gets rid of the ball but almost sacked
· Single read, one step drop and throw INT, granted the OL fell down on his block which allowed the LB to step right into the throwing lane
· Another great play action pass to outside, in stride, over the shoulder in coverage to side line
· Shows strength to battle OL during sack situations, stay upright, and get rid of the ball when possible. This could be seen as reckless at times, but seems more aware of the situation than scared or uncertain of the moment
· Play action, good vertical pass to TE in end zone through two defenders, quick / high release, on target
· Leads RB out of backfield perfectly
· Play action INT was inaccurate and a little ahead of his WR, he threw on run trying to elude rush, WR bobbled ball into hands of DB, Dysert made TD saving tackle diving in front on man and tripping him up
· Drives team down in 4th QTR nearly entire field for a TD in last 5 minutes, 21 – 24
Accuracy and touch:
Throwing on the run:
Sideline accuracy:
Zac Dysert vs Ohio State
· Shotgun, one step drops, single reads dominate the early play calls
· Shows ability, fluidity and accuracy to throw and make plays on run
· Good early recognition on first deep pass of game, granted WR was wide open, on target and in stride
· Excellent pocket awareness, covering up the ball, ducking, and slipping the sack, then getting the ball out to his WR
· Shows good zip on intermediate inside throws, timing looked a little off though
· Over throws RB in flat for sure TD near goal line
· Good vision and awareness while on run near goal line, draws defense into him, and finds open man in back of end zone, TD catch dropped
· Play action from inside the 10 yard line, 45 yard throw in the air, in stride in double coverage but WR drops catch going to ground
· Accuracy and touch continues to show up tape
· His WR and TE's dropped a lot of passes
· Finally shows ability to roll out to his left side and throw that direction with decent power and accuracy
· Sticks in pocket, keeps balance and keeps upright with defenders hands on his jersey, makes throw on target with good zip
· Seriously reminds me of a both Ben Roethlisberger and a little of Bret Favre with his elusiveness in the pocket and ability to stretch plays and avoid rushers while keeping his eyes up the field
Zac Dysert vs Ohio, 2012
· Couple early passes on WR screen type plays, one step read and pass
· Good pass up middle off hands of WR, pass a little behind WR and LB gets his hands on it to deflect but Dysert moves in pocket to create passing lane, but again stares down his WR the entire time, not seeming to look at other progressions
· Good job driving the ball to his WR on side line
· In stride deep pass, wide open, down side line for a 50 yard TD strike, 30 yards in air
· 2:26 in youtube, 4:00 in real time, shows ability to come back across his left and make deep 40 yard pass across his body. This was a great show of ability, but not a great decision as it appears he may have been lucky on this play -- he threw into triple coverage with 2 WR's in same area on crossing routes
· Continues to show touch passes with accuracy, on target against sideline where only WR can make the catch. WR should have caught for a TD but DB knocked it out of his hands
· Shows a poor decision while on run, although he eluded rush and extended the play well, he should have thrown ball away but forced into end zone for INT
Accuracy, only where WR can catch it:
Pocket Technique and accuracy:
Zac Dysert vs Akron, 2012
· Accurate early pass up sideline for 30 yards, but ruled incomplete as WR came down on sideline
· Another accurate early pass, 40 yards down sideline into end zone, perfect touch over shoulder only where WR can catch, thrown while on run, eluding the rush, WR doesn't appear to get foot down in bounds but ref calls it a TD
· Escapes pocket and shows good running awareness to find first down marker and get there
· 25 yard pass on the money, over shoulder, on sideline, good early read of defense to exploit weakness in single coverage
· Great run fake, PA, TD in red zone, ball is actually tipped coming past LOS and thrown behind WR but still is caught for TD
· Ball seems to be a tad behind or in front of receivers on a few early routes, but on target and catchable, still not a silky smooth and in stride as other games
· Recognizes the coverage and the blitz and escapes the pocket and races for first down, athletic play; tucks balls as he approaches defenders and leaps for first down
· Shows ability to read defensive blitz, 7 man blitz, sees opening behind the zone in the end zone and lofts ball over coverage with great touch and accuracy for TD while on the move / sliding in pocket
· Excellent NFL level throw to the back shoulder as the WR, where only he can catch it. Ball would have sailed out of bounds otherwise, so QB protects ball and puts it only place his guy can make a play
· Shoved with hand in his chest as he throws, stays upright and keeps ball on target up field to wide open WR
· Ball can sail on shorter throws
· Shows great ability to leave pocket and run for big yardage
· Shows two great "Big Ben" type plays late in the game where he has defensive plays hanging on his legs but he seems to be able to keep his balance, shed the player and still either get rid of the ball / throw it away or find the open player
· A play where he started looking left, stepped up and looked to a second read was almost INT, didn't evaluate or see the defenders in coverage
· Led the team on a game winning drive with less than 5 minutes to go
Accuracy in end zone:
Sideline Accuracy:
35 yard TD throw, on run, perfectly placed in stride where only WR can catch it:
Zac Dysert vs Boise State, 2012
· Some poor early reads and throws into coverage, nearly INT 2x
· WR beats Jamar Taylor but drops sure TD, goes right through his hands, in stride, good touch
· Zac takes snap in shot gun and freaking pooch punts the ball, perfectly btw, down inside the 5 yard line
· Receivers dropping lots today, another sure TD dropped in end zone
· Speed of defense seems to be an issue for his OL, often leaving him pressured and the DB's speed seems to be limiting their vertical attack, lots of WR screens
· Boise State's defense got abused putting them in obvious situations that limited effectiveness

Right Sizing SBUX 0 commentsAug 28, 2012 7:56 PM | about stocks: SBUX
As of this afternoon I checked my account and i have some more book keeping to do. I find that I have twelve shares of SBUX in my retirement account (tax deferred) and 288 in my taxable brokerage account, in addition to short 3 x $47 strike Jan 2014 puts. Today's delta on such a position would be about 433.
My desired portfolio positions due to guidance in three various services are: 44%*400 shares for 176 shares (portpro) 50%*48 shares for 24 shares (portpho) and 5%*185 shares for 9 shares (portody), 7 shares (portsa) and 6 shares (portiv), in addition to 44%*4 short $47 strike Jan 2014 puts(portpro), or close to two contracts here. As the puts have a -.4434 delta, dialing in the delta of the desired position at 176+24+9+7+6+.4434*.44*4 = 300 delta points on shares.
So i have to reduce to two short puts at 88 delta for both. And then i want to be 212 shares long.
This will cause me to buy back one $47 strike Jan 2014 put and liquidate 88 shares in my taxable account. I will set these three transactions to take place conditional on the time being 9:45 or later tomorrow 8/28/2012.
The cost of the 88 shares which will be sold are determined on a FIFO basis and are part of a 214 share lot purchased 8/22/2012 15.14 for $10326.57 or 48.26 per share including commissions. Current quote is $49.14, indicating the potential for potential gain of 88*($49.14-$48.26) = $77.44 total gain.
The proceeds from selling the put are $299.67. Last trade was 2.71. Indicated gain with commissions of one dollar are 27.67.
77.44 + 27.67 = 105.11 gain is probable. I believe the order resulted when two orders were submitted simultaneously with the 214 share order entered above, ending in over allocation of 54 shares on that day. The twelve shares in the retirement account were ignored one day on a sweep, leading to the belief i was 44 shares short and piling on 11 shares at two more intervals, leading to 76 shares explained. Sloppy and quick accounting methods increased the risk and gambling provided a return.
Nothing to be proud of. I am entering the orders to close now, using the conditional orders to trigger the sale at 9:45. 4 cent spreads are expected to affect the put trade costing me four dollars. About 1 penny spread on the stock is noise.

Arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS) is an extremely rare genetic disorder characterized by lengthening (elongation) and twisting or distortion (tortuosity) of arteries throughout the body. Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart. Affected arteries are prone to developing balloon-like bulges (aneurysms) on the wall of the artery, tearing (dissection), or narrowing (stenosis). The main artery that carries blood from the heart and to the rest of the body (aorta) can be affected. The pulmonary arteries are especially prone to narrowing. Additional symptoms affecting connective tissues entering in multiple systems of the body can also be present. Affected individuals may have distinctive facial features that are noticeable at birth or during early childhood. Arterial tortuosity syndrome can potentially cause severe life-threatening complications during infancy or early childhood, although individuals with milder symptoms have also been described. Arterial tortuosity syndrome is caused by mutations in the SLC2A10 gene and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.
Arterial tortuosity syndrome is a connective tissue disorder. Connective tissues are the major components of the body forming skeleton, joints, skin, vessels, and other organs. Connective tissues are characterized by the presence of cells included in an extracellular matrix network of a large variety of proteins (i.e. collagens), proteins bound to sugars chains of big dimension (proteoglycans), and sugars (hyaluronic acid, etc.). This complex mesh of molecules gives the tissue form and strength and ensures the passage of nutrients and factors controlling cell growth and proliferation.
Although researchers have been able to establish a clear syndrome with characteristic or "core" symptoms, much about arterial tortuosity syndrome is not fully understood. Several factors including the small number of identified cases, the lack of large clinical studies, and the possibility of other genes influencing the disorder prevent physicians from developing a complete picture of associated symptoms and prognosis. Therefore, it is important to note that affected individuals may not have all of the symptoms discussed below. For example, affected individuals may have arterial abnormalities without extravascular symptoms or only mild ones. Parents should talk to their children's physician and medical team about their specific case, associated symptoms and overall prognosis.
The specific symptoms and severity of arterial tortuosity syndrome can vary greatly from one person to another depending, in part, upon the specific arteries that are affected. Usually, large or medium sized arteries are affected such as the aorta, the pulmonary arteries, the carotid artery, and kidney (renal) arteries. In extremely rare cases, blood vessels within the skull can be affected (intracranial arteries). Affected arteries can be abnormally lengthened causing them to become twisted or distorted, possibly forming kinks and loops. These arteries are prone to narrowing and tearing and affected individuals are at risk for developing aneurysms. These arterial abnormalities can lead to various cardiovascular and respiratory complications. Cardiovascular complications can include high blood pressure of various blood vessels throughout the body (systemic hypertension), enlargement of one of the right chambers (ventricles) of the heart (ventricular hypertrophy), stroke, and tissue death caused by lack of oxygen (infarction). Respiratory complications can include acute respiratory symptoms such as repeated pulmonary infections and difficulty breathing or respiratory distress. Eventually, in severe cases, cardiac or respiratory failure can occur.
Individuals with arterial tortuosity syndrome often have distinctive facial features such as an elongated face, beaked nose, highly arched palate, small chin (micrognathia), an abnormally long groove between the nose and upper lip (long philtrum), widely spaced eyes (hypertelorism), eyelids that are abnormally narrowed horizontally (blepharophimosis), and an abnormally enlarged head (macrocephaly). Less often, individuals may develop progressive changes in the shape of the cornea (keratoclonus), resulting in blurred vision and other vision problems.
The skin of individuals with arterial tortuosity syndrome may be very soft, velvety/silky, and easily stretched (hyperextensible or hyperelastic) to a variable extent. Abnormal scarring due to diminished wound healing can occur with atrophic scars. Skeletal malformations may occur including abnormally long, thin and curved fingers and toes (arachnodactyly), joints that are permanently fixed in a flexed or straightened position (joint contractures), loose (lax) joints, a sunken chest or a chest that protrudes outward, and abnormal sideways curvature of the spine (scoliosis).
Additional symptoms have been reported in individuals with arterial tortuosity syndrome in some cases. Such symptoms include the development of small, sac-like protrusions or bulges (diverticuli) in the genitourinary tract, protrusion of abdominal tissue or part of the small intestines through a bulge or tear in the abdominal muscles near the groin (inguinal hernias), protrusion of part of the stomach into the chest through an opening in the diaphragm (hiatal hernia), softening or weakening of the cartilage of the trachea (tracheomalacia), and decreased muscle tone (generalized hypotonia).
Arterial tortuosity syndrome is caused by a mutation in the SLC2A10 gene. Genes provide instructions for creating proteins that play a critical role in many functions of the body. When a mutation of a gene occurs, the protein product may be faulty, inefficient, or absent. Depending upon the functions of the particular protein, this can affect many organ systems of the body, including the brain.
Mutations in the SLC2A10 gene are inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Recessive genetic disorders occur when an individual inherits the same abnormal gene for the same trait from each parent. If an individual receives one normal gene and one gene for the disease, the person will be a carrier for the disease, but usually will not show symptoms. The risk for two carrier parents to both pass the defective gene and, therefore, have an affected child is 25% with each pregnancy. The risk to have a child who is a carrier like the parents is 50% with each pregnancy. The chance for a child to receive normal genes from both parents and be genetically normal for that particular trait is 25%. The risk is the same for males and females.
Investigators have determined that the SLC2A10 gene is located on the long arm (q) of chromosome 20 (20q13.1). Chromosomes, which are present in the nucleus of human cells, carry the genetic information for each individual. Human body cells normally have 46 chromosomes. Pairs of human chromosomes are numbered from 1 through 22 and the sex chromosomes are designated X and Y. Males have one X and one Y chromosome and females have two X chromosomes. Each chromosome has a short arm designated "p" and a long arm designated "q". Chromosomes are further sub-divided into many bands that are numbered. For example, "chromosome 20q13.1" refers to band 13.1 on the long arm of chromosome 20. The numbered bands specify the location of the thousands of genes that are present on each chromosome.
The SLC2A10 gene creates (encodes) a protein known as facilitative glucose transporter 10 (GLUT10). The GLUT10 protein regulates the transport of sugars (i.e. glucose), as well as of dehydroascorbic acid, the precursor of vitamin C, across cells membranes. Because of the mutation there are low levels of functional GLUT10 protein. The exact manner in which deficient levels of this protein results in the signs and symptoms of arterial tortuosity syndrome is not fully understood, but it is speculated that the decrease of vitamin C inside the cells lacking GLUT10 leads to the altered production of collagens and elastin, the main structural components of the extracellular matrix of connective tissues and of blood vessels. GLUT10 is involved in the transforming growth factor (TGF) beta pathway and may be necessary to signal other proteins in this pathway. The TGF beta pathway is implicated in Loeys-Dietz syndrome, a related disorder that is also characterized by arterial tortuosity, and in Marfan syndrome and other genetic disorders involving the thoracic aorta with aneurysm and dissection (TAAD).
Arterial tortuosity syndrome affects males and females in equal numbers. Approximately 100 cases have been reported in the medical literature. The exact incidence and prevalence is unknown. Because cases may go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, determining the true frequency of arterial tortuosity syndrome in the general population is difficult. Onset is usually in infancy or early childhood.
A diagnosis of arterial tortuosity syndrome is based upon identification of characteristic symptoms, a detailed patient history, a thorough clinical evaluation and a variety of specialized tests and SLC2A10 gene molecular analysis.
Clinical Testing and Workup
Microscopic (histologic) examination of affected arteries can reveal disruption of elastic fibers of affected arterial walls.
A diagnosis of arterial tortuosity syndrome requires a variety of specialized tests to assess the extent of the disease. Such tests include echocardiography, angiography, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and computed tomography (CT) scan. During echocardiography, sound waves are bounced off the heart (echoes), enabling physicians to study cardiac function and motion. Angiographies are traditional x-rays designed to evaluate the health and function of blood vessels. An MRA is done with the same equipment use for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An MRI uses a magnetic field and radio waves to produce cross-sectional images of particular structures or tissues within the body. An MRA provides detailed information about blood vessels. In some cases, before the scan, an intravenous line is inserted into a vein to release a special dye (contrast). This contrast highlights the blood vessels, thereby enhancing the results of the scan. During CT scanning, a computer and x-rays are used to create a film showing cross-sectional images of certain tissue structures.
Molecular genetic testing confirms or excludes a diagnosis of arterial tortuosity syndrome. Molecular genetic testing can detect mutations in the SLC2A10 gene known to cause the disorder, but is available only as a diagnostic service at specialized laboratories.
The treatment of arterial tortuosity syndrome is directed toward the specific symptoms that are apparent in each individual. Treatment may require the coordinated efforts of a team of specialists. Pediatricians, surgeons, dermatologists, neurologists, cardiologists, pulmonologists, ophthalmologists, and other healthcare professionals may need to systematically and comprehensively plan an affect child's treatment. Genetic counseling may be of benefit for affected individuals and their families. Psychosocial support for the entire family is essential as well.
There are no standardized treatment protocols or guidelines for affected individuals. Due to the rarity of the disease, there are no treatment trials that have been tested on a large group of patients. Various treatments have been reported in the medical literature as part of single case reports or small series of patients. Treatment trials would be very helpful to determine the long-term safety and effectiveness of specific medications and treatments for individuals with arterial tortuosity syndrome.
Surgical intervention for arterial and pulmonary abnormalities has been successful in specific cases reported in the medical literature (e.g. aortic root replacement for aortic aneurysms, pulmonary arterial reconstruction)
Other treatment is symptomatic and supportive and can include surgery to repair hernias, skeletal malformations or intestinal diverticula. The successful outcome of pregnancy in arterial tortuosity syndrome is reported in the medical literature.

At the end of the first year of the Teacher Incentive Fund grant, teachers across the district were openly invited to be a part of a new initiative, now known as BRIDGE. The Charleston County School District saw the value of having teachers' input during the critical phases of creating the evaluation system.
We responded to this call by signing up for workgroups. Recent articles about BRIDGE in The Post and Courier and other media outlets indicate the misinformation being circulated about the initiative is growing.
As the chairwomen of these workgroups, we feel it is important for educators and community members to know what is truly happening in the process of creating this new evaluation system.
Major changes can be scary; fortunately the "Learn" component of BRIDGE has been implemented to offer support for teachers throughout the school year. Professional development coordinators have been placed in the 14 pilot schools to facilitate professional growth of teachers by being a sounding board and collaborator during instructional planning.
An online professional development database offers educators access to videos, sample lessons, teacher forums, etc.
This support is designed to offer teachers personalized learning opportunities.
These opportunities are critical for teachers as they work toward their student learning objectives.
Student learning objectives (SLOs) have been described as a guessing game, where teachers will randomly choose which students will pass a data target and then be evaluated on whether or not those students passed.
Fortunately, SLOs do not require psychic powers; they require common sense.
SLOs enhance and document what teachers are already doing to impact student achievement. It's a familiar process of planning, teaching, assessing and reflecting.
After analyzing a variety of data, teachers identify strengths and weaknesses for the class as a whole, targeting an area of need. Principals and teachers will then work together to develop a plan that will address that area of need.
As the year progresses, teachers can monitor and adjust instructional methods used to help students be successful.
At the end of the year, principals and teachers again analyze multiple data sources to measure student growth towards meeting or exceeding the original goal.
Perhaps the most controversial component of BRIDGE is the use of value-added measures (VAM).
Many media outlets contend that VAM is unreliable and demand that it be removed.
Currently when school report cards are published, the public gets a limited view of a school's achievement. This is based largely on the percentage of how many students passed or failed a standardized test.
What's missing is that, by evaluating achievement as pass or fail, we are not recognizing the hard work of students who make growth. VAM focuses on measuring student growth from one year to the next, no matter where that student starts academically at the beginning of the year.
The unique component of VAM is that it also accounts for factors affecting student learning, such as attendance, poverty or learning disabilities.
The most important thing to remember about BRIDGE is that we are currently piloting components of the evaluation system.
Teachers are encouraged to become active participants in this ongoing process by joining workgroups.
There is still important work to be done, and becoming an integral part of the decision-making process will help teachers understand how BRIDGE affects them.

Towards the end of the first half of the SEC championship game, LSU fans were wondering whether their team would get their act together, while the rest of the nation sat at attention, rooting passionately for Georgia to shake up the BCS standings.
But with 5:48 left in the second quarter, Honey Badger lit a fuse.
After Tyrann Mathieu's 62-yard punt-return touchdown, the Tigers never looked back.
Following the Kenny Hillard show during the third quarter—which saw the true freshman run for two scores and catch for a third—LSU closed out their victory against Georgia and solidified their claim to the SEC championship, a perfect record and undisputed status as the single best team in the country.
We'll wait until tomorrow's BCS standings come out before we begin the prognostication about the BCS National Championship Game in New Orleans, but for now, the SEC championship game showed us five things we absolutely know about the No. 1-ranked LSU Tigers.

Shortly after passing a $15-per-hour minimum wage law, members of the Seattle City Council sauntered outside City Hall to celebrate the historic victory.
Some of them even grabbed a piece of cake to commemorate the big day. After all, cake is the perfect treat to consume after dooming an economy.
Can councilmembers have their cake and eat it, too? Probably not, and here are four reasons why:
