Sciatic nerve pain: Any advice?
YANMD; I am seeing my doctor about this, but I'd be grateful for any wisdom from the hivemind. For a long time, I've been fairly physically active without suffering any significant problems or injuries. I'm 38 and have been going to the gym about 3 times a week since my 20s, and I go hillwalking regularly. In January of this year, I started to experience pain and stiffness in my lower back. I went to my doctor, who referred me to a physiotherapist. After a couple of sessions with the physio, the stiffness went and I got a good range of movement back, but I started to experience much sharper pain in my right thigh, of the classic sciatic nerve variety.

Dad Needs Help With Medical Forms - Ideas?
My 87 year old Dad is awash in medical bills. He'd like not to spend most of his time filling them out. Is there the equivalent of an accountant, but who fills out medical paperwork? Where would I find such a person? (He's in New York City.)
How bad is lying down compared to sitting?
This question is directed towards anyone with a medical background. I've read a few articles online that talk about how bad sitting is for health, but I couldn't find much on the detrimental effects of lying down when compared to sitting. I lie down a fair amount, especially on my days off - sleeping in late, listening to music in bed, etc. - and would like to know just how bad this is for my health. Obviously too much of either isn't good, but are all forms of sedentary equally unhealthy? [more inside]
How best to talk about mental health/illness with teens?
Hi, I've been asked to talk to eight to twelve 16 yr+'s about this (I work in psych care). It is possible one or two of them may have mental illness but that won't be known, it's more awareness raising. I will talk for about an hour with an art therapist. I have some ideas but would love to know yours too on how best to engage them interactively with the subject. Thanks.
How can my father regain his mobility?
My father, 57 years old, recently had C3 C4 spinal surgery to correct spinal stenosis. As I understand it, there was a narrowing of his spinal cord which prevented spinal fluid and motorneurons from moving freely so before the surgery, he was experiencing loss of feeling in his hand, had an uneven gate, began to have trouble moving his legs and fingers, especially after periods of rest. He was told that some patients regain almost all of their previous ability, but that most experience an end to the decline and regain some percentage of their prior ability. [more inside]
How can I survive a miserable and unfulfilling job?

Severe depression and self-doubt about intelligence and people?
I have been experiencing terrible bouts of depression and anxiety for the past four months or so now. I also have turbulent mood swings, ranging from being content in the morning, and scornfully miserable in the afternoon. I'm not certain what is causing all of this. I'm not an emotionally stable person; always unhappy and anxious. I have lost all desire to fulfill my hobbies, which includes: writing, reading, watching documentaries, deep conversations, watching old films, debating, poetry, social activism, and learning knowledge in general. I do not think I'm intellectual or socially exciting enough, therefore I have abandoned all of my hobbies. [more inside]
I just got a check for $10k. Can I keep it? YANAL.

Can a psychotherapist practice holistic therapies?
Dear AskMeFi, If I were to become a licensed psychotherapist (MFT, LMHC, LPCC; not a PsyD clinical psychologist), would it be within my legal scope of practice to help my patients using holistic traditional Eastern Asian therapies such as meditation, bodywork and body therapies, medicinal herbs, lifestyle guidance, etc?

Can you have two health insurance companies & plans?
Hi MeFi, So a bit of a weird situation here. I was laid off in 2013 and at the end of that year I applied for Obamacare. It took FOREVER to get the application going since the website was awful so long story short, it's early 2014 and I get a job with full benefits. I completely forget about the application for Obamacare and it's now January 2015 and I received a letter from CeltiCare Health saying 'hi, here's your coverage card. you are now insured with celticare...' So now, technically, I have two coverages? One from my employer and through Celticare? How does this work? Should I call Celticare and let them know I already have insurance? What benefits are there to having two? Legal or not? Thanks for your help!

How worried should I be about asbestos under linoleum floor?
I have a ceramic tile which was placed over a linoleum floor which I assume was placed over something with asbestos. The tile is in fine condition. The only possible exposure is at the edge. This floor used to abut a carpeted hallway. A few years ago, I pulled up the carpet in the hallway. The edges of all the current and historical floors and sub-floors in the kitchen have been exposed since then. How seriously do I need to take this? [more inside]
Is it dragonpox, doctor?
I've been getting these blotchy raised patches around my mouth for about 6 years. I've shown photos of them to allergists, dermatologists, and specialists, and nobody can tell me what they are, though I've been treated for a host of things that don't quite seem to get rid of the blotches entirely. Today another one showed up and I got a clear photo of it. What is it? [more inside]
Can I buy health insurance for someone without their cooperation?
I have a sister in law who has no health insurance. She is fiercely independent. I can easily afford to pay for health insurance for her. She is refusing to let me. My concern is, if she had a serious health issue, we would be on the hook for paying for her treatment. Not legally, but she is family and we just would pay for her to get good treatment. I want to insure myself against this potentially huge expense even if she doesn't want to. Is there any way to do this?

How to add Version to DLL created by a VC++ build in VS 6.0
I have a DLL created by a VC++ build in Visual Studio 6.0. When I right click on the DLL, I could just see 'General', 'Security' and 'Summary' Tabs but I am not able to view the 'version' tab under Properties.
In Visual Studio 2005, if the 'Version' tab is not available, I am able to add the 'Version' Tab as follows :- Resource Files -> Add -> Resource.. -> Version
However for the VC++ DLL created in Visual Studio 6.0, I am not able to add the version. I believe this is a trivial change to the DLL, as the version number is a property of the project in Visual Studio 6.0 also. I assume that populating the version number will automatically cause the version tab to appear in the Properties window obtained by right clicking on the DLL.
Request, if anyone could help me with this. The Build is VC++ one and in Visual Studio 6.0.
Thanks a lot.
Re: How to add Version to DLL created by a VC++ build in VS 6.0
Version strings are part of the resources for the DLL. It's a long time since I used VC6 but IIRC all you need to do is add to the project a .rc file containing the version definition and it'll be compiled and linked in.

Livin' on a prayer in a Unley North home
- From: The Advertiser
- December 21, 2012
AN HISTORIC Unley North building with plenty of potential attracted George Dostal in 1987 and he has since transformedthe building into a uniquefamily home.
Mr Dostal, who has an interest in architecture, bought the old church and renovated it, giving it a modern feel while remaining true to the building's heritage.
``We first noticed the property in 1987 for $360,000 and we couldn't afford it, but then the crash happened and we ended up buying it for $300,000, so the crash made it possible for us to buy the house,'' he says.
``It's just so quiet and peaceful and it's so lovely to be there.''
The Sanctuary, formerly the century-old St Andrews Presbyterian Church, has 12m timber ceilings, mezzanines, original leadlight windows and timber beams.
The home has open-plan living areas on the ground level and a central spiral structure which provides access to the upper levels.
``The design is brilliant. You can have totally modern or high-tech furnishings, or you can go for the industrial look or the antique look, so it caters for all sorts of possibilities,'' Mr Dostal says.
``It's a great home and we've been very happy there for the past 24 years.''
The three-storey interior allows for up to five bedrooms and has a bathroom on each level.
The home is set on an 1178sq m corner allotment and features a fenced, gas-heated pool and spa and a low-maintenance garden.
Mr Dostal says the home's location is one of its strongest features.
``You're within two minutes of the bus and you can walk to town and then of course there's all the shopping, restaurants and fashion of Unley,'' he says.

On December 20 2013 VW Brazil ended production of the VW microbus. The bus had been in production in Brazil since 1957. As a final farewell 1200 units were produced as "Final Edition" and given a special blue and white paint scheme. Yes that is a radiator grill on the front as the latest buses were water cooled and featured many amenities of modern autos. Bid a final fare well to this automotive legend by building and displaying this fantastic model.

Historical Traveler Reviews Ibis Manchester Centre Portland Street
Avoid if possible
Ok, it's only �56 per night, but please, if you can afford more, stay elsewhere.
I've stayed in Ibis hotels all over the place, but this one is much more like it's Accor sister 'Formula 1' brand. EVERYTHING is plastic, so it can be wiped down with a rag.
The rooms are the usual Ibis method: a rectangle with a plastic bathroom unit bolted on by the door. The bathroom is fine, but it was a bit grubby. Shower was powerful. The bed is very, very hard. Though double glazed, the room was extremly noisy, as it faced Portland Street itself.
This hotel has no soul. The staff are fine, but you can tell they're longing to be over in the Novotel nextdoor. (another Accor brand) Stay there if you can; definatly worth the extra �30 a night.
Mind you, it is in a good location...right on the corner of Portland Street and Oxford Road, and only 2 minutes walk to Piccadilly Gardens bus/tram centre, and only 5 minutes walk to Piccadilly itself.
Good experience
Didn't expect much of this hotel but was pleasantly surprised - very clean, great location. Asked for a quiet room and got one facing the rear of the building. Room was spotless. No frills but at �53.95 we weren't expecting any. Bathroom is tiny but shower is lovely and very clean. Extra towels and pillows given on request with no hassle. Great snack service and internet access in foyer. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would defintely recommend - walking distance from train station and city centre.
Very pleased
I've stayed at this Ibis and the other Ibis in Manchester, on Charles Street, and they seem identical, so choose by location. This one is a bit closer to the city centre and is within a minute's walk to Chinatown and many restaurants and shops. The room had air conditioning, and the round-ish bathroom others have mentioned, which is very modern and clean. The staff was very helpful. I had to leave at 4am to catch an early flight, and they arranged to have a taxi waiting. I confused their computers a bit by leaving so early, but they checked me out and mailed a final bill to me, which arrived promptly and all in order. Excellent service and value.
Great location, not so great room
A friend and I stayed at the Ibis in May 2004. The location is good - close to almost everything we wanted to see and with good restaurants nearby. The room itself was not very good for the price. It was so smoky and they don't have non-smoking rooms. Even after staying there 2 days the room still reeked of smoke so our clothes did too. The staff was helpful in finding an Internet Cafe nearby and the restaurant was good but the room itself was not so great.
Stayed at the Ibis Portland Street for one night.
The hotel is very new, modern and clean. The rooms are very light and airy and are furnished to a high standard.
The staff are very good. All very polite, helpful and friendly.
The hotel is located right in the centre of Manchester and is very handy for shops etc.
A superb hotel!!
Great Budget hotel
We stayed at the Ibis for two nights & were really impressed. I was a little apprehensive of what to expect due to the cheap price but we weren't disappointed. The staff were really nice & really helpful, the girls couldn't have been nicer. The bathroom was great & the room was clean. The only problem was the bed, it wasn't soft enough for me. The food was also nice & not expensive. The location is also great.
Ibis Portland St, Manchester is a great hotel
This was a very nice hotel with an unusual bathroom. Some have described it as being like a space capsule. The hotel is in the city center so almost everything is within walking distance. The room rate had gone up between the time I booked the hotel and our stay. They did give me the lower rate but only after I showed my reservation confirmation print out. And they did say that they did not have to honor that rate and pointed to a sign on the wall saying so. I found this a bit disconcerting as my paper did not say that. Breakfast is not included (no problem) but you are given vouchers for each person for each morning. If you use them or lose them you will be charged for those breakfasts. If you return them to the reception desk you're not.
Great value hotel
I Stayed at the Ibis hotel on portland street Manchester recently.
Great modern hotel, friendly staff, and you really must check out the toilet, space age indeed.
For under �40 per room i cant fault it.
If i had to find a criticism, the owners seem to have a golfing fixation, see the bar restuarant area.
Would definatley stay there next time i need a hotel.
Space ship toliet
The IBIS hotel in Portland Street, Manchester is good value for money and offers clean and relatively simple accomodation. The bar at the front of the hotel is large and spacious although not especially comfortable for a long drinking session, but perhaps this the idea. The rooms well equiped with beds that are surprisingly comfortable despite their hardness. The bathroom is the best part. It contains all the usual equipment for servicing human beings but is contained in a giant white plastic pod which reminds one of the film 2001 with it's stark efficiency. I should imagine that it can for be hosed out for cleaning or perhaps even jettisoned into space in the event of really terrible contaminations.
All in all good value and I would stay there again
The lovely breakfast
the lovely breakfast i had three mornings in a row was so good i will most certainly go back to the hotel. also, i was able to walk into the city centre and do lots of shopping, get a bus over the road to the trafford centre and get dropped off at the door on the way back, and then on an evening i was spoilt for choice for restaurants within the vicinity. i went back home a stone heavier. mind you, i wish there had been a couple of biscuits in the room to accompany my cup of tea. it wasn't too important though because i had brought my own, it having been my birthday the previous day, i had some leftover. the fact that i felt like a goldfish due to there being no blinds in the room was a bit of a shame but i am sure some lusty 40somethings had a good look.

Not impressed but they are updatingWe book this hotel on line because of the rate and location. There were not a lot of other options available, price wise. It needs work but it was okay for what we needed. We were awaken by the sound of maintenance repairs being made next door and this was around 7am. As we were checking out we were told they were changing to a another hotel chain in 2009 which is good for the area.Rating:2
Not at all what I had expectedI have stayed at this hotel when it was AmeriSuites and was very satified but since the change in ownership it is not at all what it was before.Rating:4
Oh humDid not exceed expexctations, for sure. The reception desk clerk announced as introduction that check-in time is 4:00PM, the website and Expedia said 3:00, even though upon registration they had the rooms available at 2:00. Maid service was all but inexistant, though it wasnt critical for a 2 night stay. On the other hand, its a great location, and the free breakfast was more than decent. Be aware that its not quite on the beach, its a 1200ft walk.Rating:4
Good experience, we would consider staying here again in the futureComplimentary breakfast was above average. Maid service was a little later in the day than we would have preferred - typically not yet serviced when we returned at the end of the afternoon to shower and dress for dinner. But this was only a minor inconvenience.Rating:2
Would not stay againWe did not enjoy our stay. The check in receptionist was not friendly, however the person I spoke with when checking out was nice. Hallways had the stench of stale cigarette smoke. The room size and features were good, sleeper sofa, king bed and kitchenette area, but seemed old and somewhat dated. It seemed like hotel catered to long term work crews needing a place to stay while in the area. Continental breakfast food items were always running out. Spending a few more bucks and to get ocean front would be worth the extra cost. All-in-all not horrible, just not enjoyable for a beach vacation.Rating:4
Not New or Shiny, but Comfortable & KindHotel is a little run down but service is good and for the money it cost, mid summer and all the breakfast included, it was a good value. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. It just no longer shines like a new penney but it is not gross or anything like that.Rating:5
Very Confortable StayI enjoyed the hotel very much. The staff was kind and courteous, and very helpful. The breakfast buffet was great as well! Would definitely return...Rating:3
Not so goodWhen we entered the room, we found an empty can of soda and an empty bottle of water. Oops. The bathroom wall had globs of some sort of pink gel. Oops. The night shift front desk person was less than personable or helpful and did not relay requests we needed for housekeeping. The daytime front desk people were quite the opposite and quite informative, too. After the first night, the room was "cleaned" but, oops, the half-used bar of soap was left on the drain and the pink gel globs were still untouched. The refrigerator and extra pull-out couch/sitting area were nice.
Travelers tip on local attractionsGo to the aquarium and McCurdys on the causeway is really good.Rating:1
Not my best experienceOls, tired and dirtyRating:2
Dirty roomThe hotel was in great beach location and lobby looked good. However, our room still had used soap in shower, dirty glasses, etc. We typically always enjoy Amerisuites but were very disappointed by the condition of our room. Would not stay at this location again.Rating:4
ComfortableThe hotel was nice. Good breakfast. Comfortable. My only complaint was the telephones in the room were sticky and so was the remote control to the TV...in other words...they felt like they had not been cleaned in a very long time. Gross...when you consider you hold the phone close to your mouth + how many people touched it before I finally cleaned it. I guess I wish there had been more detail to cleaning. Descent place though.Rating:5
Looking for More AmeriSuitesI mainly chose this hotel because I am a breakfast person and AmeriSuites has a spread you wouldnt believe. Anyone would be satisfied.Their complimentary breakfast alone had me contemplating staying in their hotel for a week versus a condo where I would have to prepare my own breakfast.
Travelers tip on getting the most out of your stayAmeriSuites is located in a very nice location. Not too far from Fort Macon State Park which is a lovely place to tour and very accessible to Morehead Citys Waterfront. Should you happen to go there, make sure you check out The Channel Markers for dinner,a fine restaurant on the water.Rating:4
Decent beach hotelThe rooms are large and include a couch, microwave, and fridge. The staff was mostly pleasant and the free breakfast was better than I expected. The rooms are not oceanside but depending on your location you can still see the ocean from your room. It is a 5 minute walk across the street to the public beach access. The rooms, however, were a little dirtier than I would have liked. There was hair in our shower when we arrived. Also the beds arent the most comfortable; at least not the ones in our room.Rating:4
Checked In EarlyWe got there an hour early and they let us check in. That was good of them,We got to unload and get to the beach. Crossing the road to get to the Beach is hairy. Lots of traffic going both ways. Becareful and looking both ways. The pool was nice but cold early in the mornings.It said it was heated but It didnt seem to be.Rating:1
Will never return thereRoom was not as described on Expedia review and was not as I had requested. Room smelled so bad that we had to try and change rooms. Front Desk stated there were no other available rooms. We had to go out and buy Febreeze and spray the entire room just to stay there. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone else. Also not worth the cost. Will never return.Rating:4
Just beware of what youre gettingWe mistakenly thought this hotel was on the beach. Not so. Its on the sound side of the island, but you dont see the sound from your hotel room. We got a glimpse of someones backyard with a small swamp and a portion of a golf course. Nothing wrong with the hotel, but not what we were expecting or wanting for our beach getaway weekend. We didnt stay but checked out and went elsewhere.
Travelers tip on getting the most out of your staybe sure you are okay with no viewRating:4
Pleasant stayThis was a very comfortable & convenient hotel stay. I would recommend this hotel, and the off season rates are unbeatable. The only downside is that there is no restaurant in the hotel, but theres a nice complimentary breakfast.

This is the complete and official list maintained by the UKCSC. If there isn't one close enough for your liking – start something BIG today by reading this guide! This is a serious strategy by the United Kingdom Cannabis Social Clubs to reach the national cannabis community – to make a change via presence in every area of the UK, we can only be heard if we make ourselves a presence. By creating a network for activists and enthusiasts people can be helped on all levels, politically, medically and socially – everyone's message can be spread. It's time to offer a real alternative to the current failing model of prohibition.
These groups are for adults of 18 years old and over. They hold local public meetings, days of action where they hit the streets to inform the public and hand out leaflets and also the occassional social event. Some clubs are member only but still have open social events as well as private member only events, while other clubs are in the early stages of forming. If you think you have something to contribute or can make a difference make contact with your local club or build something from the ground. Maybe you have a group of people with the same frame of mind – now is the time.
Some groups are purely activist, some groups are simply there to look after their needs and remove themselves from artificial and unnecessary economical chains.
As said above if you would like to get things moving in an area that is not yet getting active in the real world, make contact with them and let them know how you can make a difference.

Next month's CPAC gathering will feature a Conga line of conservative and "conservative" pleading their case and rallying the cause among the faithful. Much noise was made however over the fact that the Jersey devil himself Chris Christie wasn't invited to speak. Joe Scarborough, noted Christie stalker, groupie, and president of the Chris Christie Fan club ranted over the slight, saying the move by CPAC demonstrates how out of touch some elements of the movement really are. Others on MSNBC labeled the March gathering of conservatives a quote, "Loser Lineup". Two things, first off the last person who should accuse anyone remotely associated with Republican Party politics or the conservative movement of being out of touch is Joe Scarborough. Secondly, with that being established, I actually agree somewhat with those who criticize the move. It's not so much that I criticize the idea of inviting Chris Christie, because to be quite honest I think Christie's a loud mouth overrated political ballerina. I mean the man, politically speaking dances better than Kevin Bacon in Footloose.
What I object to is the fact that Jeb Bush was invited to speak but not Chris Christie. Exactly how much more conservative is Jeb Bush than Christie? Jeb Bush is a nerdy, slimmer and more tan version of Chris Christie. Jeb Bush is conservative like I'm a white woman with blonde hair and breast implants. With Mitt Romney okay he was the nominee in the recent presidential election and there might be some beef between he and the New Jersey governor over the Hurricane Sandy situation where leading up to election night Chris Christie and President Obama engaged in what can only be described as political intercourse at Romney's expense.
I tend to agree also with Mark Levin in that CPAC from what I understand has become more about Republican speakers than conservative speakers expressing ideas centered around conservatism. And this is where the word, the meaning, and the philosophy of conservatism gets treated like the "Black/African American" box on the census form. Nowadays any Republican can be labeled "conservative" without actually being a conservative just by saying they are one. It's like when bi-racial people say they're black just because one of their parents is black. It's like, the meanings are twisted and formed according to whoever chooses to twist and contort the word and its meaning. In short, I like my black people black and my conservatives true conservatives. Now, let's see how many object to what I just said.
There are very few real conservatives left in America. I would imagine they can relate to the Siberian Tiger and the Snow Leopard. I've never been to CPAC but I can almost envision a gathering of elite Republican strategists, deal makers, journalists, special interest groups, and television and radio personalities all coming together doing and saying things that mean absolutely nothing and will solve zilch in regards to what ails the Republican Party. After all, it's the party and not the movement that matters the most at CPAC. So why not just rename it "RPAC"?
Jeb Bush having a platform to pretend he's a conservative just shows you how shallow this whole world of politics has become. The man spent months going around on every liberal media outlet lecturing real conservatives about how icky and backwards they are, he tells them they're a bunch of xenophobic hicks who hate Mexicans and surprise, he's the only one who can set them straight and save the GOP from its lunatic fringe. Now all the sudden he's conservative enough I guess to speak at a supposed conservative gathering for conservatives who are all kinds of so much conservative.
By that standard Chris Christie should have been allowed to speak, if not be the keynote guy at this political equivalent to Comic-Con masquerading as something important. The danger of creating these large scale annual gatherings for like minded folks is that sooner or later as time goes on it becomes more and more superficial and less about its original intent. A bunch of Republican operatives trying too hard is not something I would ever want to be associated with. Perhaps its a win-win situation for Christie to have not been invited.
Or maybe I'm wrong about this whole thing. Maybe CPAC is an actual gathering of real conservatives coming together and bouncing ideas around to help the movement flourish for the next generation. But if you remove the Republicans from that equation what would be the ratio of attendees to actual conservative attendees?
I admit I plan on watching Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, and Sarah Palin speak whenever they post the videos on Youtube. I saw Sarah Palin's speech from last year's CPAC on Youtube and like always she never seems to not get the mood of the country or of the moment.
Steve Schmidt called the list of next month's speakers the bar scene from Star Wars. Well, you know Steve Schmidt is just mad because people want to hear Sarah Palin speak even after all he and Nicole Wallace tried to do to convince people she was a bottomless pit of moronic know nothing existence. Of which is nowhere near reality. Steve Schmidt wants to be an important figure but he's lost too many important elections based on his tendency to give bad advice to ever have that happen. Nicole Wallace just sucks.
I say reconsider on Christie because heck, what's a walrus speaking after a Rino in a room full of elephants.

At Denver Stapleton Redevelopment Site
DENVER -- The U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the M.A. Mortenson Company and Civil Technology have formed a partnership to promote job safety and health in the construction of the Denver Stapleton Redevelopment site. "STA-SAFE 2" is the second partnership at the site, providing incentives for contractors to establish a "zero injury" culture along with providing a unique vehicle for training local construction workers.
OSHA safety and health partnerships are part of Labor Secretary Elaine L. Chao's ongoing efforts to improve the health and safety of workers through cooperative initiatives with companies and trade associations.
"By entering into this agreement, the partners have agreed to implement a model safety and health program to ensure their employees' safety and health," said Herb Gibson, OSHA Denver Area Office director.
The STA-SAFE 2 Partnership will be evaluated semi-annually to determine whether the employers' injury and illness rates are at least ten percent below the industry average, when compared with Bureau of Labor Statistics published data for Colorado and nationally.
STA-SAFE 2, signed on Aug. 18, 2004, focuses on safe work practices and site-specific hazards. An example is a unique pre-dig authorization procedure that will help protect employees from striking existing electrical lines. The partnership also will focus on trenching and excavation, moving vehicle "struck-by" hazards, electrical and fall hazards. Participating contractors have agreed to review the root cause of any incidents and "near misses" and design measures to prevent recurrences.
The partnership provides that all supervisors will receive at least 10 to 15 hours of safety and health training, all employees will receive at least two hours of training, and a new-hire substance abuse testing program will be established. Training also will be available in Spanish.
The Stapleton Redevelopment site, projected to take up to 15 years to complete, consists of approximately 4,700 acres of land that is being developed into a network of urban villages, employment centers and open space. The STA-SAFE 2 partnership involves part of the infrastructure development of the site.
Since its Strategic Partnership Program began in 1998, the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration has formed more than 300 partnerships, impacting over 13,000 employers and 573,000 employees across the United States. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health. For more information, visit www.osha.gov.

Exclusive Plum, a sophisticated violet, is Sherwin-Williams Color of the Year 2014. The hue, a balance of cool blue and feisty red with a splash of gray, pairs well with a variety of styles to create color schemes suitable for any room.
This dusky, filtered violet is refined without being stuffy, elegant yet easy, and layered with romantic potential, said Jackie Jordan, Sherwin-Williams director of color marketing.
Exclusive Plum has an amazing quality and can be adapted for nearly any space, whether used as an accent or for an entire room. Here are some ideas on where to use Exclusive Plum in your home:
According to Max Brannen, Manager of Mount Pleasants Sherwin-Williams store on Johnnie Dodds Boulevard, the most popular way to utilize the color is through accent walls.
Most commonly, accent walls are found in dining rooms and bedrooms, he explained.
For a cozy, masculine den, we recommend pairing this color with accents of copper and well-worn leather, said Jordan.
Exclusive Plum can also be layered with gold, gray and white for an elegant, dreamy bedroom.
Its great highlighted against white subway tile and chrome fixtures for a statement master bathroom.
Pops of magenta and chartreuse can liven up Exclusive Plum for a more energetic space and when paired with creamy whites or other neutrals, the mellow yet purposeful purple can turn any space into a refreshing retreat, she explained.
Brannen added that variations of the color can be customized to suit a persons taste and style.
He said that Emerald Paint is an interior latex finish with a matte finish satin, semi-gloss. It is good for washability and can be used anywhere in the home.
For a custom consultation, stop by the store at 705 Johnnie Dodds Blvd. or call 843-884-0440.

There have been 16 known attacks on fiber optic cables in the last year, where attackers crept through manholes to sever the cables that supply communications services to the San Francisco area. In fact, the New York Times referred to this as the "cyber threat under the street." Awareness of the threats to "invisible" cables that carry our Internet communications has gone so mainstream that even Stephen Colbert has talked about fiber cuts!
While most of the emphasis on protecting networks today is focused on protecting data within the enterprise or data center, the physical infrastructures of both public and private Internet networks are vulnerable to calculated attacks. An attacker could access in-ground fiber cables and siphon off entire data streams without it being detected for days, weeks or even months. What do security professionals need to know about these attacks and the weaknesses in their physical infrastructure? Ciena has helped enterprise and government customers worldwide deploy optical-level encryption to protect against these threats. Paulina Gomez, specialist, Product and Technology Marketing, Ciena, explains what security professionals need to know about the physical risks to networks, and how they can protect all data in-transit 24/7.

Morgan wins Collingwood backing
Watch session-by-session highlights of every T20 and ODI on ecb.co.uk/video
Paul Collingwood believes Eoin Morgan is "100% ready" to replace him in England's Test team.
Collingwood called time on his Test carer midway through the innings-and-83-run win at the SCG, which completed England's 3-1 Ashes success.
The 34-year-old's concession that his 68-Test career was over came following a series when he averaged just 13.83 while his team-mates flourished around him.
But Collingwood revealed his poor form had not been the sole factor in his decision, with the number of young players in England pushing him for a place in the Test side convincing him to stand aside.
Ashes tourist Morgan is top of the list of potential replacements and, while he was unused in Australia, Collingwood believes the 24-year-old is the man to fill his shoes having already collected six Test caps, as well as establishing himself as a one-day international regular.
"I always said that if there were better players coming through it was time to give them a chance, and I think Eoin is 100% ready," Collingwood said.
"That's one of the reasons why the decision was made very easy for me.
"He's obviously got a hell of a lot of talent - he just needs the exposure in Test cricket now and I'm sure he'll do fantastically well.
"He's a very skilful player, and I'm sure he'll be able to adapt his game to what you need in the Test format.
"But there are a lot of other cricketers out there who've got a lot of talent as well, and I think it bodes really well for English cricket that there will be a lot of people knocking on that door and looking for that spot in the England cricket team.
"I can safely say now it (the depth in the England team) is as good as I've ever seen it in my career.
"They will move on, they will keep improving and I can't wait to watch them in the next couple of years to get that number one spot in the world."
England team director Andy Flower admitted Morgan was currently first in line to replace Collingwood, but, with four months until England's next Test against Sri Lanka, he was offering no guarantee the Ireland-born left-hander would be recalled then.
"The most obvious one is Morgan because he's in our squad," Flower said. "But it's not right to name a replacement because our next Test is May.
"If we had a Test tomorrow – after Collingwood had retired – Morgan would step in. But all sorts of things can change between now and May."
Morgan is set to get the chance to return to the England fold this week as the focus switches to the shorter formats of the game.
After celebrating their Ashes success into the early hours in Sydney, the team made the three-hour journey to Canberra by bus ahead of tomorrow's warm-up game against a Prime Minister's XI.
The match is the only fixture England have before they tackle Australia in two Twenty20 matches and seven one-day internationals.
Twenty20 skipper Collingwood is set to lead the team in Canberra, with Andrew Strauss handed a well-earned break.
That will mean Collingwood taking charge of the side for the next three games and, after leaving the Test scene on a high, he admits he will attack the captaincy with plenty of enthusiasm.
"I'm feeling very, very happy. I've got a big smile on my face," he said.
"The reason I play the game is to contribute to the England cricket team, and to go out on a note like that in front of huge English support - at a real traditional ground in Australia - and have that kind of result is literally the perfect way to go.
"I'm a very happy man. I've been waiting a long time to do something special like this out here in Australia, and it feels absolutely perfect.
"With the camaraderie that we have in the changing room, it's important we have a beer together and talk about the games and enjoy it. That is exactly what we did on Friday night."
He added: "It (the Twenty20 series) has come round quickly, straight after the Ashes, but that's probably a good thing. I'm looking forward to it.
"We've got to move forward. This is an important series coming up with the T20s; we don't get a lot of opportunities to play them on the international stage.
"Then we've got to keep the form going, moving on to the one-dayers and the World Cup.
"We've got to keep the momentum going - that's crucial - and it's important we start well in the practice game on Monday."

Current sheet propagating in CSSX Accelerator.
One form of electric propulsion is a pulsed plasma thruster. A pulsed plasma thruster (PPT) is a device that accelerates a propellant in a pulsed manner, not steadily. By changing the pulse frequency one can change the thrust of these devices, therefore PPTs are useful for a wide range of applications. Gas-fed PPTs such as the one we are studying work in the following manner. A certain amount of propellant gas is introduced into a gap between positively and negatively charged electrodes. A switch then exposes the gas to high voltage, which breaks the gas particles down into ions and electrons, forming a plasma. This plasma forms in a thin sheet between the electrodes and it conducts current. This current sheet is accelerated out of the device by the force created from the interaction of the current and the induced magnetic field. As the sheet moves, it picks up the neutral gas like a snowplow, pushing all of the propellant out of the device at a very high velocity (~40 km/s), creating thrust to move the spacecraft.
We find in studying these current sheets that the sheet rarely acts as an ideal "snowplow" as described above. One way in which the operation of the device deviates from ideality is by allowing plasma to leak behind the sheet into a wake along the cathode. This means that a significant portion of the propellant is not accelerated to a high velocity. This has a serious impact on the efficiency of PPTs.
In a pulsed electromagnetic accelerator a current sheet accelerates a propellant gas through the j X B force. In the ideal case all of the gas is entrained and accelerated by the sheet. An observed departure from this ideality is current sheet mass leakage, a phenomenon through which a wake of plasma is left behind the sheet along the cathode. This leads to a decrease in sweeping efficiency, the percent of the available propellant mass that is contained in the sheet. The present work describes experiments and an analytical model designed to quantify and explain the effect of current sheet mass leakage on the performance of the accelerator. High speed photography, interferometry and magnetic field probing are employed to gain an understanding of the evolution of the sheet and the performance of the device. After an initial bifurcation phase, the current sheet in this device enters a steady-state phase of propagation during which the mass, velocity and canting angle are approximately constant. It is found that non-dimensional impulse and efficiency decrease with increasing propellant pressure for discharges using argon propellant, because of a decreasing sweeping efficiency. The performance of neon discharges stays constant with pressure because the loss of mass from the current sheet is made up for by a commensurate increase in wake mass. The performance of helium and hydrogen discharges increases with pressure, because while the sweeping efficiency stays constant, the wake velocity increases. The trends in the behavior of the sweeping efficiency have been explored with an analytical model of the current sheet. It is proposed that in the lighter propellants, which have a higher ion Hall parameter, the ions in the sheet are subject to a directed motion towards the cathode, causing a high degree of leakage of plasma into the wake. The heavier propellants, with low ion Hall parameters, are subject only to a diffusive leakage of ions at the cathode. However, these sheets are found to be highly permeable to the ambient propellant.

Note that due to the limitations of the measurement technique and the fact that the plasma density is less repeatable than the magnetic field, this movie appears much less smooth.

to see a movie of a typical firing of the accelerator (or click here
to see a close-up of the breech during the first few microseconds of firing);
a current sheet is observed to propagate from the breech to exit at a speed
of approximately 35 [km/s]. Two things, among others, are evident in the
movie. The first is that the current sheet severely tilts, with the anode
attachment leading the cathode. Also, a dense blanket of luminous plasma
on the cathode is seen to trail behind the current sheet. Both of these
phenomena have negative implications for the performance of pulsed plasma
thrusters. The leakage phenomenon is explained above, and the canting phenomenon
has been explored in detail. This project has been completed. Please see the following

you are the best fuck buddy i could have, all the others get feelings and morals involved
You must be Logged in to post a comment
Yes Ottawa, we know how to be real fuck buddies.
Well to be fair, Ottawa fucks the rest of the country routinely, and there's definitely no actual love there, so you'd figure they'd have a lot of practice.
I only had one good fuck buddy. The rest of the girls eventually tried to lock me down.
I could use a fuck buddy
i could use one too lol
sounds like the op is starting to develop some feelings.
Those don't come by very often
Lucky indeed
Lolllll love this
yessss. ^__^
This is amazing. I must tell my fuck buddy this.
I'm jealoussssss
I wish lol
That's fucking AWESOME! >I'm a chic< :~)
I have that too and love it! And from Ottawa and a girl this is sick we know how to do it!!!
Everyone needs that one person without feelings
Awesome, 2 lucky people
Hellz yeah!!!!
Mhmmm... Bought time the good ones come out to playyy :)
Sometimes feelings just show up :(
I wish mine was like that. My guy keeps acting like he's my boyfriend, it's getting annoying. :/
I just lost mine cause someone pinned him down. Sadness.
This is why I love my married fuck buddy...we got nothin to worry about!!!
Hahah I agree with 4:09
haha yes!
Hell yeah!!!

Wednesday, March 5, 2014
While schools are catching up on the days missed during Ice Storms Leon and Pax, the state senate is forgiving up to five days of classes cancelled.
The bill passed Wednesday and means the measure would waive state law requiring schools to make up all days missed from the chilly weather.
However, Sen. Sean Bennett, R-S.C. said the school districts are required to build three snow days into their calendars when such situations occur.
Dorchester District Two lost a total of five days from the ice storms.
I think it probably affects the Upstate schools a little more because I think they missed a couple more days, Bennett said.
At Feb. 24s DD2 board meeting board members discussed what to do about at least two of the five cancelled school days.
March 14 is the next scheduled Teacher Work Day. There are half-days scheduled for March 5 and April 30.
In order to add more days for teachers to prepare their students for the end-of-the-year exams, boards members decided to turn March 14 into a full day of classes and the two half days will be stretched to full days as will, giving the district two full instructional days back.
Both the Senates and the boards decisions were made with final examinations in mind.
It gives the decision back to the schools, Bennett said. That was the rationale in my mind.
DD2 board members will not be making any new decisions until after the bill becomes definitive.
The subject will be re-visited at the next board meeting, scheduled for March 10, said DD2 Public Information Officer Pat Raynor.

Title: PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATIONS
Author: Paul F. Boller Jr.
Publisher: Harcourt, Inc.
Price: $25
Despite chill - both the weather variety and that affecting relationships between some of the principal actors - presidential inaugurals over the course of U.S. history have been mostly happy occasions.
Indeed, as chronicled by Texas historian Paul Boller Jr., they become an entertaining account covering the subject from Washington's first inaugural in New York City on April 30, 1789, (the wrong date but chosen for perfectly good reasons) to the George W. Bush gala last Jan. 20 in Washington.
Boller, professor emeritus on the faculty of Texas Christian University, has written three other books on aspects of the presidency, and the new one lives up to standards set by his earlier "Presidential Anecdotes,'' "Presidential Campaigns'' and "Presidential Wives.'' Our presidents have been good, bad and indifferent, but stories of their experience, including the inaugurations that launched their time in office, prove to have been marked by anecdotes that tell volumes about the times and people.
Political junkies may have been aware of icy exchanges and even more icy silence between Franklin D. Roosevelt and Herbert Hoover in the presidential transition of 1933, but Boller brings the scene to life for the ordinary reader looking for human dimensions of a landmark moment.
The author's research has turned up many examples of contemporary reporting on inaugurals, including references to the weather, always important because of the innate chancy nature of the subject. Weather frequently was the main story, whether on the original prescribed swearing-in date of March 4 or the Jan. 20 date observed since FDR's second inaugural in 1937 (as authorized by the 20th amendment to the Constitution).
Weather reports tell of an auspicious beginning to an "era of good feeling'' said to have characterized the presidency of James Monroe. Historian James Schouler fairly raved over "the day of spring sunshine unusual for early March'' that warmed the federal city for Monroe's first inaugural on March 4, 1817.
"The softness of the air!'' he wrote, "the radiance of the noonday sun, serenity of the rural surroundings, from woody heights to the placid Potomac, carried a sense of tranquil happiness to the hearts of thousands who had assembled for the outdoor ceremonies on Capitol Hill.'' Monroe was the first president to be sworn in at an outdoor ceremony, now the usual order of the day, no matter how bad the weather.
It was rarely worse than on March 4, 1841, when William Henry Harrison, age 68, felt compelled to take part in an outdoor ceremony in "excessively disagreeable'' weather and played his role without hat or coat to show his stamina. He died of pneumonia a month after taking office.
The author observes that some people seem to have thought presidents got the inaugural day weather they deserved, "particularly if the weather was good and they liked the president.''
A great deal of history is condensed into the 297-page book. The reader learns, for example, that the humblest reception for a new president occurred when, after taking his oath, Thomas Jefferson returned to his boarding house for a family-style lunch. And as if this weren't sufficiently folksy, the new president found all the seats at the dining table occupied. One of the other boarders offered him her place but he refused to take it until she assured him she had finished eating.
Lyndon B. Johnson probably enjoyed the inaugural balls more than any of his predecessors or successors in the office. More than 28,000 people attended one or more of the five dances in 1965; and at the Mayflower Hotel, LBJ changed partners nine times in 15 minutes. Boller writes that the president was "flushed and sweating but supremely happy'' and goes on to describe him hoisting Margaret Truman over the railing in the box where she was sitting with her husband. "To the delight of the crowd, he twirled her over the dance floor as the orchestra played "I've Got the World on a String.''
This book is fun, and the dust jacket of the first edition may turn out to be a collector's item. Eleven Presidents are depicted in the colorful cover cartoon and identified in a numbered diagram on the back cover. The diagram wrongly identifies Franklin D. Roosevelt as Harry Truman.
The dust jackets may already have been replaced, but the original, complete with error, may be valuable some day. - MKT

The moment you've been waiting for has arrived: the revolution has begun. There's hope on the horizon for independent voices, artist-run spaces, and emerging artists. Corrupt institutions, the forces of art-world-evil, and counter-revolutionary art press face a new challenge to their regime: our Fall Fundraiser is live.
Help us liberate you.
Donate on our Indiegogo page and receive fabulous thank-you gifts: Matthew Barney Lip Balm, studio visits, limited-edition artwork, and much more!
THE YEAR: 2015. Museum funding is dominated by oil companies and rapists. Commercial galleries are overrun by unwashed hordes of celebrity-driven exhibitions, and universities are giving out honorary doctorates to these same people. Rampant gentrification has caused artist-run galleries to Escape From New York.
But on the road toward this dystopian future, there is hope. October 6th, we launch the resistance: The Art F City Fall Fundraiser for Independence. Today, we ask for your early support. Your donations help us get this party started!
Say hello to Mr. August. For the Art F City 2015 Panda-Themed Calendar of Artists in the Nude, Rachel Stern created a campy, classical take with her model, artist Rollin Leonard. For a $250 donation, this print can be yours.
ACRE, a summer residency held in Steuben, Wisconsin with an ongoing series of exhibitions in Chicago, Illinois, will move into a permanent space this September, to 1345 West 19th Street in the Pilsen neighborhood.
Art F City's 10th birthday has finally arrived. We're celebrating TONIGHT at Lightbox (339 West 38th Street, 6:30-10:00 p.m.) by throwing a party to remember, our 10th Anniversary Power Women benefit and live auction.
Sometimes great things just sorta happen. But if Ferris Bueller taught us anything, it's that sometimes, you get the opportunity to make great things happen. Our experiences for auction are four different versions of the perfect day, so whether you prefer a country getaway or a film sesh with a documentary crew, here's your chance to make Ferris proud.

I look for photos of rare 747:
1/One 747-200 was painted in Air Algerie circa 1990s color scheme (red and green) but never delivered (s/n:21991,c/n437).This aircraft was previously destined to Braniff (N605BN) before BN collapsed ! After storage,this aircraft joined the Northwest fleet (N633US).
2/At least one 747-200 wore the Libyan Arab Airlines livery and was never delivered.Then it was stored for one year before joining the Varig fleets
3/ 747-200C of Iraqi Airways were delivered with an own loading bridge installed in the 747 nose allowing loading/unloading cargo without any ground loading equipment.
So,I look for photos about:
Air Algerie 747 (red and green colors)
Lybian 747 (in full colors)
Iraqi 747 (with cargo nose open and loading bridge deployed)
Many thanks

MormonLeaks is a research project that seeks to reconstruct the authentic narrative of the origins of the Mormon canon by combining macro-analytic computing tools with contemporary historical evidence.
The historical records reveal a small pool of candidate authors collaborating in Western New York and Northern Ohio to create the Mormon scriptures. Joseph Smith, Jr., Sidney Rigdon, Oliver Cowdery, and Parley Pratt are implicated as responsible for the majority of the authorship. Writings in the style of the King James Bible attracted religious curiosity, and authors started using this "Style of Antiquity" to easily establish truth claims in a language that was both familiar and authoritative. Our team of candidate authors borrowed liberally from the Bible, as well as contemporary works such as View of the Hebrews, The Late War, The Pilgrim's Progress, and many others.
The narrative complexity in the Book of Mormon involves multiple internal editors and more than two dozen prophet characters. We assume multiple contemporary authors were involved in writing and editing the texts. In addition, we address persistent reports of plagiarism, cover-ups, and fraud.
The forerunner to the Book of Mormon, "Manuscript Found", was a story penned by Solomon Spalding. Witnesses described it as a Biblical-style fiction that traced the origin of Native Americans to migrations from the Middle East. Spalding submitted his manuscript to a Pittsburgh print shop for publication. Impoverished and unable to pay the printing costs, Spalding died with his manuscript unpublished and seemingly forgotten.
We present our investigation of this 19th century authorship mystery to you in slideshow fashion. The narrative has been divided into eight episodes similar to chapters in a book. Each episode assumes familiarity with the previous one, but of course you can skip around the episodes at your leisure.
We invite you to join us!
