Top Producing Realtor, Tom Reilly, Joins The Belt Team
Top Producing Realtor in his own right, Tom Reilly joins The Belt Team (with Keller Williams Realty McLean) as Senior Buyer Specialist.
The Belt Team has recently had two members battle cancer (successfully so far – Thank you God!). And their experiences with the various oncologists, chemo nurses, radiation professionals, insurance processors & more have only reinforced to them the value of a team of specialists. (Imagine if your surgeon handled your insurance. It would be messed up for sure! Or if the same doctor who handled eye surgery, handled foot surgery. Yikes!) It's ideal when each person on the team does what they are best at.
So we run our real estate team along that same principle. "Team": Together Everyone Achieves More! And that especially includes our clients. Belt Team clients don't have to rely on just one or two people to handle everything. Imagine how hard it would be to reach them if that were the case! They would likely be jack-of-all-
Tom has been a Top Producing Realtor® on his own for many years. He was "Rookie of the Year" during his first year as a Realtor and has continued to excel in real estate. Tom's natural gift of leadership and patience as a teacher meant that he found himself in a number of leadership roles over the years – most recently as the Assistant Team Leader at Keller Williams Realty McLean, one of the top offices in the entire country. And while Tom really enjoys being a part of the KW McLean office, he discovered that his passion is really found in helping Buyers find that perfect home. So Tom decided to go back "into the field" to work with Buyers in a more dedicated way.
At the same time Tom decided to pursue his passion, he sought out The Belt Team. Tom said, "Joining one of the top teams in the entire country will help my clients be even more successful in their endeavors than they could be if I was on my own." CEO, Terry Belt shared "Tom and I have known each other some 30 years – since we played basketball & baseball together at Bishop O'Connell High School. We knew we shared the same values of integrity & commitment to excellence; it was a natural fit." Belt added "Our mission at The Belt Team is to change families' lives for the better – one family at a time. And that's something Tom has been doing for years."
Tom joins The Belt Team as Senior Buyer Specialist.
Belt Team Chief Operating Officer Christy Belt Grossman said "Tom has a genuine passion for helping others, and a great sense of humor matched with a seriousness of purpose. His buyers really appreciate his consultative approach and feel well armed with the tenacity & creativity he uses to be their advocate in today's market. Add to that the extensive market knowledge that can only come as a lifelong Northern VA resident, along with his technology experience – and that translates to top notch negotiating skills that are a win-win for his clients!"
Tom Reilly is a top producing Realtor® and Lead Buyer Specialist for The Belt Team. Tom is a graduate of Brown University; he is licensed in Virginia, and holds an Accredited Buyer's Representative Designation. Tom's buyers like working with him because as a lifetime resident of McLean, he knows Northern Virginia like the back of his hand – whether that's schools or businesses, commuting routes or neighborhoods. In addition, Tom has extensive skills in the technology arena and his buyers gain a competitive advantage (and extra convenience)
Before his career in real estate, Tom worked in the legal industry for almost two decades where he focused primarily on employing technology to assist in the practice of law, including implementing technology solutions to promote business development. Tom enjoys volunteering extensively in the community. He has served on the Board of Directors of the Hamlet Swim Club as Secretary of the club, as an usher at St. Luke Catholic Church, and in numerous roles coaching youth athletics. Tom's true passion is helping others and he looks forward to helping you find your dream home!

Future Trends in the GCC
This project on the Gulf aims to provide in-depth analysis of the political dynamics in this fast-changing region of vital strategic importance.
The MENA Programme research seeks to anticipate future scenarios for the political and economic development of the Gulf Cooperation Council states and promote a deeper understanding of the dynamics of unrest across the Persian Gulf, including regional tensions over Iran, Iraq's security crisis and Yemen's long-term political instability.
This ongoing research project on the Future Trends in the GCC has developed an open and expanding network of young researchers and commentators from the GCC countries to generate fresh thinking on policy, with a focus on ways to minimise the risk of violent conflict and broadening the range of ideas available to policy-makers. Through workshops, extensive field research and high-level briefings, the project provides analysis on a variety of themes, including around issues of citizenship, political and economic development, regional tensions and foreign policy, internal community relations and the role of political Islam.

As Charlie wrapped up the meeting, he ticked off a few key reminders for everyone involved in the asset identification project.
"Okay, everyone, before we finish, please remember that you should try to make your asset lists complete, but be sure to focus your attention on the more valuable assets first. Also, remember that we evaluate our assets based on business impact to profitability first, and then economic cost of replacement. Make sure you check with me about any questions that come up. We will schedule our next meeting in two weeks, so please have your draft inventories ready."
Did Charlie effectively organize the work before the meeting? Why or why not? Make a list of the important issues you think should be covered by the work plan. For each issue, provide a short explanation.

I am so disappointed this time round with the Lily Super Skinnies. I was replacing the ones I have from three years ago as they were a brilliant trouser, with thick yet flexible, quality material and sturdy stitching. Apart from wear in between the thigh area, they are still in good shape. The new ones, however, are awful! Thin material, terrible stitching. Primark standard, if not worse. I have to send them back as the stitching on the waist came away instantly. Really sad to lose faith in what was a shop step above the other stores. And what's more the prices have stayed the same! Bye bye FCUK.
On 06-Sep-2016 the supplier responded:Thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the quality of the jeans. We would not expect this quality. If you could contact us on 0333 400 3285, we can arrange a return or exchange. Regards, FC
Fit good, fabric comfortable easy to move in.
very good fit true to size soft material & a bit of stretch which helps it to be more comfortable
These jeans are super comfy and very flattering for anyone with a slightly curvier figure. I'm interested to see how long they last though as the material is on the thin side (good for summer though).

No other organic jams & preserves even come close!
Posted by Dorothy Schellhase on Sep 15th 2015
I have purchased Food for Thought jams and preserves for over 12 years (probably more, actually) because they have a low sugar content and the flavor of the berries used is such high quality.They remind me of the pure flavors you can only find in European markets I don't buy any other brand. In fact, I guess my family is addicted to them!

Enacting Social Reform: Religion, Charity, and Social Movements, Workshop, June 14-16, 2012
Workshop Date:
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
CFP: Enacting Social Reform: Religion, Charity, and Social Movements (1850-1939)
Workshop: June 14-16, 2012, GWZO, Leipzig (Germany)
This workshop seeks to connect scholars and research on religion and social reform in East and East Central European societies, addressing the multi-faceted functions and meanings of religion. We are especially interested in examining ties between social reform and charity projects in the context of debates over secularization and confessionalization, as well as processes of promoting national identities, politicization, and participation.
With regard to the 19th and 20th centuries, the meaning of religion has often been examined in the context of the process of modernization. For example, it has been assumed that people came to perceive nationality and religion as inseparable; especially in East and East Central Europe, where with the appearance of national movements, religion became increasingly politicized. Concerning charity, researchers have assumed that there was a fundamental shift from religiously motivated care for those in need toward modern, prevention-oriented social welfare and the welfare state.
Scholars have long criticized modernization theories based on distinct lines of social and economic development and for some time considered religion to be responsible for many of the changes in the modern period. The so-called "second confessionalization" – developed especially, but not only from German examples – starts from the perspective that after a time of religious indifference during the Enlightenment, a new wave of religiosity arose, which brought about a clearer separation of religions and confessions. This model has been criticized for merely replacing the "old" model of development with a new one. Instead, more productive lines of inquiry might include detailed studies of specific meanings, ways of functioning, and the practices of religious institutions and actors, as well as specific manifestations of religiosity and secularity.
The aim of the workshop is to explore the field of research on religion and social practices and to establish a network of scholars interested in such approaches. The regional point of departure and focus of the workshop is East and East Central Europe; however, those projects which cross borders and boundaries to include other perspectives and regions are also welcome.
The intended time frame covers the period from the second half of the 19th century to World War II; however, we are open to research that extends beyond the period of our focus, but which includes connections to broader historical frameworks. We also encourage interdisciplinary research and proposals from scholars outside of history, including (but not limited to) anthropology, folklore, literary, cultural, and legal studies.
Possible topics (though this list should not be considered exhaustive):
• Discourses regarding reform and religion/faith, progress and tradition
• Secularity and religion in the perspective of welfare and social reform
• Funding methods and forms of assistance for reform initiatives
• Relationships between the city/municipality and charity/social reform including the shift to welfare states
• Religious diversity and charity/comparison of initiatives of different religions and denominations
• Gender and religion in political and social movements
• Legal reform, associations, and families
• Performative aspects /everyday practices of concrete associations and initiatives
• Competition between different movements, failures, and counter-movements
The workshop will take place at the Geisteswissenschaftlichen Zentrum Geschichte und Kultur Ostmitteleuropas (GWZO) in Leipzig. For those participants selected, we will fund travel costs and accommodation. Workshop languages will be English and German.
Deadline for proposals: February 25, 2012 (approx. 500 words, in English or German) Participants will be notified by March 15, 2012.
Please send proposals to Tracie Wilson (email@example.com) or Dietlind Hüchtker (firstname.lastname@example.com).

HEADACHE TREATMENT: What to do when medication doesn't help. Find a Neuromuscular Dentist!
Many patients suffer from Migraines, Tension-Type headaches and Chronic Daily Headaches. They frequently still find their lives revolving arount their headaches. Neuromuscular Dentistry can frequently supply desperately needed relief.
The Trigeminal nerve is responsible for over half of the entire input into brain and the majority of that input comes from the periodontal ligaments of the teeth, the jaw muscles and the jaw joints. The trigeminal nerve also goes to the lining of the sinuses and controls most sinus headaches, to the tensor of the soft palate and controls the eustachian tube that causes pressure in the ears and stuffy feelings and the tensor of the eardrum that can cause tinnitus. Most imortantly it controls the blood flow to the anterior 2/3 of the brain thru the meninges.
The theory of neuromuscular dentistry is expained in an easy to understan manner in two articles in Sleep and Health Journal. One is about patients and specific problems and the second article explains why Neuromuscular Dentistry works. The first article "SUFFER NO MORE: dE3ALING WITH THE GREAT IMPOSTER" can be found at the Sleep and Health website @ http://sleepandhealth.com/
The website http://www.ihateheadaches.org has extensive information about neuromuscular dentistry and headache prevention and treatment.
# # #
I HATE HEADACHES LLC is dedicated to educating the public about Neuromuscular Dentistry and how it can improve patients lives.

TY - JOUR T1 - An Analysis of Residential PV System Price Differences Between the United States and Germany JF - Energy Policy Y1 - 2014 A1 - Joachim Seel A1 - Galen L. Barbose A1 - Ryan H. Wiser KW - photovoltaics KW - soft costs KW - system pricing AB -
Residential photovoltaic (PV) systems were twice as expensive in the United States as in Germany (median of $5.29/W vs. $2.59/W) in 2012. This price discrepancy stems primarily from differences in non-hardware or "soft" costs between the two countries, which can only in part be explained by differences in cumulative market size and associated learning. A survey of German PV installers was deployed to collect granular data on PV soft costs in Germany, and the results are compared to those of a similar survey of U.S. PV installers. Non-module hardware costs and all analyzed soft costs are lower in Germany, especially for customer acquisition, installation labor, and profit/overhead costs, but also for expenses related to permitting, interconnection, and inspection procedures. Additional costs occur in the United States due to state and local sales taxes, smaller average system sizes, and longer project-development times. To reduce the identified additional costs of residential PV systems, the United States could introduce policies that enable a robust and lasting market while minimizing market fragmentation. Regularly declining incentives offering a transparent and certain value proposition—combined with simple interconnection, permitting, and inspection requirements—might help accelerate PV cost reductions in the United States.PB - Elsevier VL - 69 UR - http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301421514001116 IS - June 2014 N1 -

Clinton Resumes Drumbeat for Patients' Rights Bill
But Clinton on Thursday claimed that the House bill would increase premiums by less than $2 per month. Four of the Senate's 55 Republicans have broken ranks to support the House measure, drawing the president to emphasize that just one additional GOP vote will give victory to the House plan.
One possible Republican vote is Sen. John Ashcroft (R, Mo.), who is feeling increasing pressure on the issue; Clinton made his remarks Thursday at an event with Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan (D), who is challenging Ashcroft this November for his Senate seat.
John Stone, spokesman for Rep. Charlie Norwood (R, Ga.), a key author of the House bill, tells WebMD, "With no compromise whatsoever, we almost passed the House bill in the Senate. So with any kind of legitimate, reasonable compromise, we ought to have the majority over in the Senate."
Stone says that behind-the-scenes negotiations are ongoing. "Within the next two weeks, you're going to see a true compromise bill come out," he says. "Hopefully, it will be one that the leaders of both parties and the president can all say they can work with."
Others are betting on a successful compromise. Norman Ornstein, PhD, a political scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, tells WebMD, "The odds are better than 50-50 that we'll see something pass," he says, but adds, "these are still preliminary negotiations, and it's quite possible that you won't get any kind of a break until the fall."
Congress returns to work next Monday from its Fourth of July holiday. Lawmakers will work through the month, but depart again for the month of August before returning for a final month of legislating.
Ornstein notes, however, that Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore has chosen so far to focus his health care campaigning on a Medicare prescription drug benefit. "He's not making much of an effort on patient's rights," Ornstein tells WebMD. "That takes a bit of the public focus off of this, and may take some of the pressure away from doing things."

A special preview episode of THE FRANCHISE: A SEASON WITH THE MIAMI MARLINS will air Saturday at 9 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast) immediately preceding SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on SHOWTIME.
Here's what the participants had to say on Thursday:
Abner Mares
"Ever since I entered the SHOWTIME Bantamweight Tournament, people started recognizing me. People started noticing me and getting a close look at Abner Mares, the real Abner Mares. People didn't know much of him, just the fact that he went to the Olympics, and now I'm making a name for myself.
"This fight is going to be really good. I am not underestimating Eric Morel. Never will I underestimate any fighter. I train really hard for any fighter because I want to give a great show. I want to show a different Abner every time I face anyone. I'm ready. I'm ready for Eric.
"I know Eric trained really hard as well and it's only going to make this fight really interesting. This is really going to be a good and explosive fight.''
Eric Morel
"This is going to be a great fight. Nothing is going to stop me. Age is not going to be an excuse. I'm well prepared. I know what I'm getting into. I know Mares is extremely hungry and a very good fighter, very talented. He has his dreams and I've got mine, too.
"But on Saturday the best man will win. It's not going to be easy for either one of us.''
Anselmo Moreno
"I am ready to fight, I have the will to fight and have come 100 percent prepared. I plan to do good work and hopefully everything comes out fine because I came prepared to win.
"I want to fight everyone in the 118-pound division and 122-pound division."
David de la Mora
"I spent five weeks in Mexico preparing for this fight, so I am very prepared. If Moreno beats me, there will be no excuses like a lot of fighters make. If Moreno wins, he was better than me. There will be no excuses.
"It was a mistake for Moreno to take this fight because I am going to take that title away.''
"Mares vs. Morel: Battle on the Border" is a 12-round fight for the vacant WBC Super Bantamweight World Championship set for Saturday, April 21 at UTEP's Don Haskins Center in El Paso, Texas. The co-featured fights will see Anselmo "Chemito" Moreno vs. David de la Mora in a 12-round fight for Moreno's WBA Bantamweight Super Championship. The event is presented by Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Corona and AT&T. The SHOWTIME Championship Boxing doubleheader airs live at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast). Just prior to the action on SHOWTIME, preliminary bouts will air live on SHOWTIME EXTREME® beginning at 7:00 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast).

ATLANTA — American couples are not as infertile as it might seem.
Despite a boom in the use of fertility treatments, a new government study shows the percentage of married couples having trouble conceiving has dropped slightly in recent years.
About 6 percent of married women under 45 failed to get pregnant after at least a year of sex without contraception, according to the report. That's down from less than 9 percent some three decades ago.
That may seem surprising given how many women seek help to get pregnant; the use of fertility treatments, including in vitro fertilization, has doubled in the last decade.
But that increase is driven by larger numbers of women trying to have children in their 30s and 40s, when female fertility declines.
So while infertility clinics may be more common and used more — particularly by more affluent women trying to have their first child at older ages — that's driven by a change in the market, not biology, said Anjani Chandra, lead author of the study.
"This runs counter to what a lot of people think," said Chandra, a researcher at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The study released Wednesday focused on married women. It was based on in-person interviews of more than 12,000 women and more than 10,000 men, ages 15 to 44.
The results of the interviews conducted in 2006 through 2010 were compared to four similar surveys done since 1982.
The trend was relatively flat, but overall, there was a slight decline.

Caravaggio is ruffling feathers on Italian TV.
A lavish skein on the life of the 17th century artist just reaped stellar ratings on pubcaster RAI. But the "Caravaggio" biopic is drawing fire from Italy's gay community — and the Vatican — over how the maestro of chiaroscuro's supposed homosexuality is depicted.
Advocacy group Arcigay slammed the $20 million telepic helmed by Angelo Longoni and shot by Vittorio Storaro, claiming it only vaguely suggests the Baroque painter may have been gay, unlike Brit helmer Derek Jarman's graphic 1986 "Caravaggio" feature, which left no room for doubt.
Meanwhile, powerful Italian bishops' daily Avvenire is on a rampage against RAI for "pandering to the gay lobby," as it put it. "Caravaggio was not a homosexual," claim the incensed Italo bishops who found RAI's tame treatment way too risque.
The good news for RAI is its megaskein — which RAI Trade recently sold to a dozen territories at Berlin's EFM — debuted with a more than 25% primetime share both nights, even beating "Big Brother," a regular ratings champ, on Mediaset.

COLUMBIA - A second person has been arrested in the home invasion shooting death of a man in Richland County last month.
The State newspaper reported (http://bit.ly/1gknHvA) that 19-year-old Kemani Devonte Archie of Columbia was arrested Tuesday and charged with murder.
Richland County Coroner Gary Watts said 29-year-old Tresvon Coker died from injuries nearly three weeks after the Feb. 4 attack.
Twenty-six-year-old Stanley Jones was arrested in Norfolk, Va., on March 5 and was charged with murder in Coker's death.
It was not clear if Archie has an attorney.

Mac QuartzGL (2D drawing on the graphics card) performance
QuartzGL was introduced as an official feature in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (although it was a developer-only feature in Mac OS X 10.4 as Quartz 2D Extreme). However, it is off by default and is largely ignored by most developers. In this post, I look at how to enable QuartzGL, the performance impact it has on different kinds of drawing and whether you should use it in your Mac programs.
A graphics card can render 3D graphics hundreds of times faster than a CPU and graphics cards are used to accelerate compositing of windows on the desktop for a many-fold performance increase.
Despite the advantages of graphics cards in these areas, 2D geometry on the Mac is normally generated by the CPU in main memory. You can opt to have your program drawn on the graphics card instead but this option is off by default. This 2D on the graphics card drawing is named QuartzGL.
QuartzGL works by generating an an OpenGL ARB_fragment_program (pixel buffer drawing commands) and performing on the graphics card what would ordinarily be performed on the CPU.
It shouldn't take you very long to guess the reason that it is disabled by default: QuartzGL does not improve all kinds of drawing. An ARB_fragment_program does not use the same geometry processing that 3D graphics relies upon, so it's unlikely to be the most optimized part of the GPU. For some kinds of drawing, it will perform considerably worse than regular CPU-based drawing. The question I hope to answer is: what kinds of operation go faster, what kinds are unaffected and what kinds might go slower?
How to enable QuartzGL
You can enable QuartzGL for your program by editing your Info.plist file. Just insert a boolean value
QuartzGLEnable and set it to true.
Of course, you could also do this for any program if you wish. Edit the Info.plist and see what happens the next time you run it.
The test code
I'll run three tests:
- drawing semi-transparent rectangles
- drawing text
- drawing randomly placed lines
If you're curious about why I'm testing these: I experimented with a number of different drawing primitives and decided that these were the most common drawing primitives that produced the most widely varying results.
This is the drawing code:
Test results
You can download the complete project for the QuartzGLTest (32kb).
I ran the test on a 2.66Ghz Quad Core Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon HD 4870 graphics card. I used the Quartz Debug program to disable "Beam Sync" during the tests. The window in the test application is resizeable but I ran it at the default 480 by 400 pixel content size.
The raw FPS rates here are not really important (I chose the number of iterations fairly arbitrarily). The important point is the relative difference between the QuartzGL and CPU tests.
As you can see, QuartzGL's impact ranges from nearly a 10 times performance improvement in the best case, through to an 83% speed reduction.
The performance improvement for semi-transparent rectangles is considerable but it is hard to recommend QuartzGL in general. Time consuming drawing operations are likely to have an even mix of both lines and flat color areas, resulting in a negligible difference either way.
I spent some time once talking with an engineer who had worked on what was then Quartz 2D Extreme. He gave the impression that Apple had been initially very hopeful about its potential — as were many onlookers like myself. It just seemed like drawing on the graphics card should be 10 times faster for everything. But as this engineer related, they simply could get around bottlenecks that kept the whole system at disappointing speeds.
Ultimately, you are more likely to improve drawing performance more through reducing redraw than through increasing draw speed. For example, you could cache areas of your drawing in CoreAnimation layers, eliminating the need to redraw and relying on what your graphics card does well: compositing. As an aside, CoreAnimation appears to disable QuartzGL so you can't do both.
It's unclear if graphics card drawing will improve in future. I doubt the current ARB_fragment_program implementation will ever see dramatic improvement but with OpenCL and other forms of GPU-based programming, it certainly feels like a reimplementation using a newer technology could yield better results. Of course, this "feeling" didn't help the original ARB_fragment_program implementation succeed. Additionally, OpenCL remains constrained by features that only work on specific graphics cards (like image buffers). And OpenCL doesn't change the bottleneck of transferring data backwards and forwards between the CPU and graphics card (something which does not necessarily improve even when the CPU and GPU themselves increase in speed).
Finally, none of this should be taken as an indication that Quartz drawing on the CPU is particularly slow; it's not. But if you're wondering if you could squeeze a little extra performance out of your program by switching to QuartzGL — probably not unless the key limitation in your program is raw pixel fill rate and you have relatively few lines.

Black Oak Photography - Athens, WI - Phone: (715) 257-9340
Photographers are individuals who take photographs either for making money or as a hobby. Photographers who have made photography as a means of earning, are referred to as professional photographers, whereas, those who take photographs just for the sake of pleasure are known as amateur photographers.
Professional photographers in Athens can be of different types based on their field of photography, namely wedding photographers, portrait photographers, medical photographers, photojournalists, etc. The photographers in Athens may be associated with organizations, or may work as freelancers. Freelancers, like the paparazzi, take photographs and often sell them to media houses and other prospects. The subject of photography is also another factor, based on which the photographers in Athens are classified.

Meanwhile, here's help to start up small firms
Published 04/12/2012
Ten new firms in Lurgan and Portadown are being offered rent-free use of a town centre property for four months and a grant of £500 in a bid to stimulate business.
Five companies in each town will get support from the Meanwhile In Craigavon scheme, delivered by Groundwork Northern Ireland and Insight Business Consulting, for Craigavon Borough Council.
Potential landlords and tenants are currently being recruited for the initiative and public meetings have been arranged in both areas where prospective applicants can hear first hand how steps are being taken to help their businesses grow.
At a time when around 20% of shops in Craigavon are currently lying empty, Groundwork NI Director Sylvia Gordon said that anyone with a business or project idea can apply.
"Our town centres are facing huge pressure and until broader economic recovery embeds, the Meanwhile programme can make a very positive difference," she said.
"We want to help any type of business - a start-up, a social economy project, a community initiative or even an existing business keen to expand.
"A range of currently unused units of all sizes have been identified and we want to get these filled quickly, as we know it will boost job opportunities in the area and bring footfall to our town centres."
Councillor Darren Causby from Craigavon Borough Council added: "The Meanwhile scheme offers a great opportunity to those we know can pull us out of the current economic crisis - those in our community committed to creating local jobs and wealth."
Both information meetings will be held on Thursday, December 13, with the Portadown leg taking place in the Town Hall at 6.30pm, while Lurgan's Town Hall is the venue at 8.30pm.
If you think you have a business idea or a project which fits the bill, you can find out more or apply to the Meanwhile In Craigavon programme by contacting Richard Rogers at Groundwork NI by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com or by telephone at 028 9074 9494.

Fort Macon's commander, Col. Moses J. White, a brilliant student at West Point who suffered from epilepsy, knew his fort was vulnerable to Union ground and ocean forces.
Still, he wanted to do the honorable thing. He defended his fort during the Union attack on April 25, 1862, until the 1,150 shells fired on the fort exposed his powder magazine.
Now a state site, it is North Carolina's best-preserved brick fort. It is found at the end of Fort Macon Road on Bogue Banks just across the bridge from Morehead City, N.C.

Eye health in our region
State of eye health in our region
Globally 223.4 million people are vision impaired, 32.4 million of whom are blind. Around 80 per cent of this vision impairment is avoidable or treatable. In addition, 517 million people globally are vision impaired from Presbyopia, a treatable condition commonly known as distance vision. Meaning that 696 million people around the world are needlessly blind or vision impaired. As eighteen of Australia's closest neighbours are developing countries, and with 90 per cent of people with vision impairment living in developing countries, the challenge is large and is very close to home.
Women account for approximately 64 per cent of all blind people globally, and in some countries, women and girls are only half as likely as men to be able to access eye care services.
One in five of the world's poorest people live with a disability and are often excluded from communities, public health services and development programs. This exclusion increases their vulnerability to poverty and creates a vicious cycle of poverty and disability.
What needs to be done?
Since the VISION 2020: The Right to Sight global initiative was launched in 1999, blindness prevalence has significantly decreased in the Indo-Pacific region, with a 38.5 per cent reduction from 1.3 per cent to 0.8 per cent in the Pacific and a 43 per cent reduction from 1.4 per cent to 0.8 per cent in Southeast Asia. This is remarkable given there has been a 23 per cent increase in population across the region.
But while this improvement is a step in the right direction more needs to be done, including increased commitment in eye health prevention, treatment and vision care programs from national governments and donors to support the elimination of avoidable blindness.
The good news is that Australia is well placed to help eliminate avoidable blindness and vision impairment in our region and provide inclusive development for those whose vision impairment is untreatable.
In order for Australia to continue to support its neighbours, the Australian Government needs to also play its part in this.
The benefits
There are now mechanisms in place for significant progress to be made in the elimination of avoidable blindness. If there ever was a time to yield a positive return on investment and make a real impact on the lives of some of the poorest people in our region, it is now, especially because:
- poverty is being reduced
- eye health can target the poor and most vulnerable
- it makes good economic sense
- Australia can build on its international reputation.
Research has shown that interventions to improve eye health in developing countries are among the most cost-effective public health programs available returning $4 for every $1 invested.

Iodized oil is used as an opaque medium in the roentgenographic study of body cavities. It was first employed by Sicard and Forestier in 1921 as an aid in locating and demonstrating obstructions of the spinal canal, and later was used successfully by the originators in exploring dilatations, fistulous tracts and cavities of the bronchial tree and the pulmonary tissues.
Since October, 1924, we have employed iodized oil in the form of bronchial injections as a diagnostic and therapeutic agent. This article is based on the results of this study and also the writings of Sicard and Forestier, Sergent and Cottenot, Nigoul-Foussal, Ballon, Archibald and others.
The iodized oil we have employed is the chemical compound of 40 per cent metallic iodine with oil of poppy seeds described and used by Forestier. The oil and iodine are so closely combined that the ordinary starch test fails to reveal free iodine.

"He had a good practice yesterday, but as we're finding out in these situations, one day isn't always indicative of the next day," Coach Cam Cameron said Friday. "We've kind of been through this, and that's what we're learning. He was positive yesterday. He came in this morning and things were not quite the same, and that's the recommendation of our medical staff."
With Thomas again out of the lineup, Channing Crowder again will line up at middle linebacker and Derrick Pope will get another start on the outside.
This will be the fourth game Thomas has missed this season. He missed the games against the Jets and Oakland in September because of the concussion he sustained in the loss to Dallas in Week 2.
He also missed the London game against the Giants with what was described as whiplash after he was involved in a car accident on his way home following the loss to New England at Dolphin Stadium.
With the migraine a symptom of concussions, the concern obviously is that Thomas sustained another concussion as the result of the car accident. It's also fair to wonder about Thomas' prognosis for the next few games.
But Cameron refuses to look ahead when it comes to Thomas.
"As you guys know, we take it one day at a time," Cameron said. " We take it this week and try not to get too far ahead of ourselves and just see how it plays out. I think that's what you do in these situations. You've got to focus on this week. We'll rely on the advice of our medical staff, try not to get into 'hypotheticals' and those types of things and just see how it plays out."

Pocket-sized Sun Safety Card Available Free of Charge
BOSTON -- The arrival of warmer weather means that an increasing number of New Englanders will be working outdoors and will be exposed to sunlight while doing so. Sunlight is the main source of harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can cause eye damage, premature aging of the skin, and skin cancers, such as melanoma.
In an effort to help the region's workers safeguard themselves against UV radiation, the U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration suggests that they take the following precautions when working outdoors:
- Wear protective clothing that does not transmit visible light.
- Frequently apply sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor of 15 or higher.
- Wear broad-brimmed hats that protect the face, ears and neck.
- Wear sunglasses that block UV rays.
- Seek shade, if possible, when the sun's intensity is at its peak-between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
- Be aware of the signs and symptoms of skin cancers and see a health-care clinician if an unusual skin change occurs.
"Melanoma accounts for more than three-fourths of skin cancer-related deaths each year, though most skin cancers can be cured if detected early enough," said Ruth McCully, OSHA Regional Administrator for New England. "Unprotected employees working in sunlight risk exposure to UV radiation. Outdoor workers with fair skin and hair, freckles, or numerous or irregular moles are especially susceptible to sun damage. Even a few serious sunburns can increase the risk of skin cancer. However, workers can take steps to protect their health and well-being."
To further assist workers and employers, OSHA has published a free pocket-sized card, "Protecting Yourself Against Harmful Sunlight" (OSHA Publication 3166), which provides detailed information on the hazards of UV radiation, symptoms of exposure, methods of protection and sources of additional information. The pocket card is advisory in nature and informational in content. It is neither a new standard nor a new regulation and it creates no legal obligation.
"These simple precautions plus a knowledge of the hazards of UV exposure are workers' best allies in combating one of nature's deadliest hazards, now and in summers to come" said McCully.
New England workers and employers may obtain copies of the pocket card free of charge from one of the following OSHA area offices:
|Hartford (860-240-3152) - Bridgeport (203-579-5581)
|Portland (207-780-3178) - Bangor (207-941-8177)

|New Hampshire:
|Concord (603-225-1629)
|Rhode Island:
|Providence (401-528-4669)
The pocket card is also available in PDF format through OSHA's website at: www.osha-slc.gov/Publications/osha3166.pdf.
Further information on detecting, preventing and treating skin cancer is also available from the websites of the American Cancer Society (www.cancer.org) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (www.cdc.gov/ChooseYourCover).

Reviews for the Acer Aspire 1652WLMi
Source: Pocket Lint
We have to ask ourselves, how much do you think you need to spend on a notebook and still get a machine that manages to do what we need from it? Well, Acer would like us to think its £749 (inc. VAT) and they'd be right. It may lack a little imagination and offer nothing new but at the asking price there really is little to fault with this machine. Sure, there are more powerful notebooks on the market but the Aspire is proof that if you shop around, you can find a genuine bargain or two.
