CHICAGO - Reading Bill Belton's tweets over the last week or two, you would think Penn State's running back from South Jersey felt he was being disrespected.
Check out two from July 21. He wrote in one, "Underrated and overlooked . . . damn I'm excited for the season to begin." The other, accompanied by a publication's view of the Big Ten's top five running backs plus three more to watch - no, his name did not appear - said: "First thing I see every morning."

Police: Man drove 101 mph down slushy roadFebruary 16,2014Staff Report
SHAFTSBURY - Slick roads didn't prevent a New Yorker from driving more than 100 mph Saturday afternoon, police said.
Jay Philippi, 32, of Cold Spring, N.Y., is facing a charge of negligent operation after state police allegedly stopped him for driving 101 mph on Route 7.
"Road conditions were slippery at the time, with a layer of slush and snow covering the roadway," said State Trooper Justin Walker in a statement.
The posted speed limit is 55 mph.
Philippi is scheduled to answer the charge March 24 in Bennington criminal court.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER After sitting on the Vermont Supreme Court for nearly 30 years, Justice John Dooley...

Alpine Total Dynamic Dividend Fund (AOD) (the "Fund") today announced that its Board of Trustees (the "Board"), as part of an ongoing evaluation of strategic options focusing on enhancing shareholder value, has authorized a share repurchase plan (the "Repurchase Plan"). Under the Repurchase Plan the Fund may purchase, in the open market, its outstanding common shares.
So they can't make buying other company stock to work so they are going to buy their own.
In all honesty this could be good or bad.
Good if they retire the shares but then I'd have to question how they are going to increase their income and work their way out of their hole.
Bad if its for stock options for management where essentially they are using shareholder profit to buy shares and give to themselves.
There has got to be better income funds with less questions.
Sentiment: Hold
Don't look for the buyback to benefit shareholders. The first problem is that no dollar amount was announced. You can bet it will not be big. Second AOD was originally established as an above average income fund. That is no longer the case. It is a below average income fund with a poor NAV track record. It makes no sense to invest money in AOD where there other good income opportunities.
I am placing an order to buy, as I have already owned this fund since inception. Seeing a good move to restore shareholder value by management is indicative of them getting complaints from major shareholders who have stayed the course. Dividends continued. I know that Wells Fargo has offered this fund to clients on a long term basis for Advisor accounts. Why are you here to advise people not to buy?
Sentiment: Strong Buy

In a previous study it was demonstrated that the magnesium ion is capable of preventing the contraction of smooth muscle both in vitro and in vivo.1 In a large percentage of guinea-pigs passively sensitized to horse serum an intravenous injection of magnesium chloride just prior to the injection of a shocking dose of horse serum prevented the appearance of anaphylactic shock. Similarly, the addition of magnesium chloride in isotonic amounts to the fluid of the Dale bath in which were suspended uterine strips from sensitized guinea-pigs prevented the contraction of the strips when antigen was added.
The present studies were concerned with the effect of the magnesium ion on the contraction of the smooth muscle of the vascular system in the intact animal. White rats (Wistar strain) were utilized as the experimental animals, and the systolic blood pressure was used as an index of the presence or absence

Beautiful pattern, however I am having a little trouble with the pattern. Some of the crocodile stitches look great and others are too small. The video shows to do in pattern in knit both sides, but the pattern for gloves says pearl on one side, and I think it is messing me up. Sorry. Gonna try again when have time to look at video again. I am a skilled knitter, so this is a welcome challenge for me to do a new stitch. Thanks.

Ileana Ros-Lehtinen First Republican To Pose for NOH8 Campaign
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen has followed in the footsteps of the likes of the Kardashian sisters and the cast of Glee by getting "NOH8" painted over her face, duct tape placed over her mouth, and a ring flashed for the gay rights campaign. Whiles Ros-Lehtinen isn't the first member of congress to pose for the photo project, she is the first Republican to do so.
Photographer Adam Bouska started the project in 2009 in reaction to California's passage of Proposition 8 and has since turned the project into a general protest for LGBT rights and human equality in general.
Celebs of all stripes have posed for the campaign, and Bouska was in DC yesterday snapping photos of politicians, including Ros-Lehtinen, for the #NOH8ontheHill campaign.
Participated in @noh8campaign 2day 2 raise awareness 4 the ongoing fight 4 #equality #NoH8onTheHill twitter.com/RosLehtinen/st...
— Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (@RosLehtinen) June 13, 2013
Though, it's really no surprise Ros-Lehtinen is the first Republican officer-holder to do so. She has a transgendered son and has been breaking rank with her party on gay rights issues since 1996. She's a founding member of the LGBT Equality caucus, was the first Republican to cosponsor a bill that would repeal DOMA, the first Republican on the hill to fully support same-sex marriage, and was one of only two Republicans in congress to sign a brief in favor of same-sex marriage that was sent to the Supreme Court.
Glad 2 c so many Cong colleagues @noh8campaign standing 2gether 4 equal rights #LGBT#NoH8onTheHill twitter.com/RosLehtinen/st...

Imagine if that character Ronmey was elected? the Hawfeeces team would be heaping credit on Ronmey day and night, all the while blaming Obama. Ronmey would be glowing and gleaming in republican credit for dow 14000. Feeces woulld proclaim GM was saved by Ronmey himself, dressed in a golden cape, leaping from roof to roof saving the nation. All the spending would be approved, blank checks written everywhere, taxes for the rich set to zero, relations with China would be near war stage, and at least one new war to profit from would be starting.
All wasted, now they have nothing left but bitterness and have to scramble their minds thinking of how to believe good news is really bad.

eBay, Schmebay -- Look What the City's Sellin'
Apparently, somebody at Dallas City Hall is cleaning out the prize closet to make a few extra dollars during the budget crunch.
Every so often, just for grins, I check out the auctions at Lone Star Online, which the city of Dallas, Dallas Area Rapid Transit, the Dallas Independent School District and other municipalities use to move surplus merch. Only, turns out the city of Dallas isn't offloading flat-tire forklifts or Reunion Arena seats this go-round; quite the opposite. Matter of fact, in the latest surplus-property auction, which kicked off Thursday, the city's clearly going out of the sports collectibles business -- just in time to cover the $190-million budget shortfall.
Dunno why there are two Kurt Warner items up for bid (a signed jersey and an autographed helmet from his Ram-tough days in St. Louis). But the other three items have decidedly Dallas connections: a framed print of Mickey Mantle, signed by the New York Yankee legend and former Watson Circle resident; a framed cover of Life magazine featuring Roger Staubach and Tom Landry (whose autographs are included); and a Dallas Stars jersey signed by the 1999 squad, which only last week celebrated the 10th anniversary of sipping from the Stanley Cup. Fourteen bids later, and the jersey's still only up to $110 -- hell of a deal. But the price is sure to skyrocket, as bidding is open till July 6 -- which is just as well, considering Dallas can use every last penny it can find right about now.

The San Francisco 49ers made two more additions to their coaching staff Friday, announcing that Reggie Davis will be the team's tight ends coach and Peter Hansen will be a defensive assistant and quality control coach.
Both have ties to new Niners head coach Jim Harbaugh.
Davis, 34, who spent the past three years as running backs coach at Oregon State, was on Harbaugh's staff at the University of San Diego in 2004, working with tight ends and special teams. He was also Harbaugh's teammate for two seasons (1999-2000) on the San Diego Chargers.
Hansen was a defensive assistant at Stanford the past two years and worked with new 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio on film breakdown, scouting reports and practice preparation.
Hansen also was a strength and conditioning intern at Stanford in 2008. He attended Palo Alto High School, where he played for his father, Earl, the longtime football coach at the school.
Harbaugh may add another secondary coach to complete his staff. Here is his current roster of coaches:
Vic Fangio - Defensive Coordinator
Jim Tomsula - Defensive Line
Jim Leavitt – Linebackers
Ed Donatell – Secondary
Ejiro Evero - Defensive Assistant/Quality Control
Peter Hansen - Defensive Assistant/Quality Control
Greg Roman - Offensive Coordinator
Mike Solari - Offensive Line
Tim Drevno - Offensive Line
Tom Rathman - Running Backs
Geep Chryst – Quarterbacks
Reggie Davis - Tight Ends
John Morton - Wide Receivers
Bobby Engram - Offensive Assistant

Building bright Mediterranean flavors, one tweak at a time
On a menu full of appealing pork- and beef-centric dishes at the Rumpus Room downtown, it was the octopus salad that leaped out.
Such clean, nimble flavors - this was an irresistible dish, light and bright on the palate. True, the meat dishes have clear, big flavors, too; nothing is muddled on this menu. But that salad, with its herb and citrus note and contrasting textures, is compelling. »Read Full Article(1)

Soulstice Theatre stays true to Pinter's 'Betrayal'
Dazzled with visions of starting fresh, lovers beginning an affair always think their story will be different. But what almost invariably results is another iteration of the same tired prose, inscribed by people who repeat the life they sought to escape rather than making a new one.
That's easiest to see in retrospect, which is how we view the affair featured in Harold Pinter's "Betrayal," composed of nine scenes that gradually move us back nine years, from 1977 to 1968. »Read Full Article

TravelPod Member ReviewsResidence Inn Las Vegas Hughes Center
Breakfast, wifi, parking, free food and drinks in evening, view of lights. Only downfall - close to airport so do hear the planes taking off but not loud (just sounds like distant thunder).

Historical Traveler Reviews Residence Inn Las Vegas Hughes Center
Wonderful Place!
Just returned from a trip to Las Vegas/Grand Canyon (week of April 25th). Stayed at the Residence Inn-Hughes 2 Bedroom suite for three nights. We usually stay at a Residence Inn elsewhere when we go on vacation. This Residence Inn (Hughes) is above average than the other Residence Inns. The suites were very clean including the sheets and bathtub and quiet. Unlike other Residence Inns, we had no problems with waiting for the elevators, which came quick and often. During the 3 days, we did not hear or see any people in the hallways. We had wondered at times whether there were any other people staying in the hotel until we saw how many people there were at breakfast time. Our room was on the 10th floor and we had a good view of the mountains and a part of the Strip. Unlike the mega hotels on the Strip, parking was easy and plentiful. Hotel staff/reception were very friendly and made you feel welcomed. Checking inn took less than 10 minutes for us. The full kitchen including full size stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker came in handy, although we did not use them much since the hotel served a full breakfast hot buffet and an evening light meal/happy hour. Breakfast had a wide variety of hot foods such as scrambled eggs, sausage patties, pancakes, make you own waffles, biscuits, fresh fruits, cereals, oatmeal, juices, milk, coffee, teas, hot cocoa, etc. .. Getting to the Strip was easy as long as you know where the self parking lots are at the "mega" hotels. Driving to the strip was quick and very easy from the hotel although one cannot predict traffic. We couldn't use the pool during our stay because the weather was too cold and a bit rainy, but it looked good. It felt like home when we came back to our rooms in the evening after a day of sight seeing. As long as you have a car, there should be no problem going out to eat, shopping or sightseeing. It's a very close drive to McCarran Airport (maybe 10 minutes away), but we didn't hear any airplanes at all during our stay. We would definitely stay here again when we return to Las Vegas. The Residence Inn made my family's vacation very comfortable.
Great Place to stay!
Great place to stay, small pool that was exactly 65 degrees so it was too cold to swim but the spa was nice and large. Free high speed internet access, large fridge with ice maker, dishwasher, microwave, 10 or 12 cup coffee maker not the small ones you see in most places, well worth the price. Could be difficult to locate at night, if you are not taking a taxi you may want to mapqwest the location. One nice thing is that you can get from your room to your car or truck in min or two, you don't need to pack a lunch to hike to your car 1/2 mile away like you might at one of the huge locations on the strip. Another cool perk for the guests is the large outdoor BBQ grill. You could pick up some nice steaks etc. at a supermarket and have a good meal at a fair price.
I spent one night at this Residence Inn and was disgusted by the state of the room - and especially the bedding. The sheets were badly stained, paper-thin and had cigarette burn holes! I would not recommend this to anyone at all finicky about cleanliness.
All housekeepers have been reminded to inspect sheets before using them.
Given that our hotel has consistantly maintianed guest satisfaction scores in the top 20% for Residence Inn by Marriott, we can safely say this is not a common issue and has been addressed.
Pretty good hotel but more suited for business travelers.
We stayed here one night during a very busy NASCAR weekend and booked last minute when everything was full or super expensive. We booked her one night since the Tuscany could not accomodate us for an extra night at a good rate. Weekend rate of 149.00 was excellent.
It was a one bedroom suite, with full kitchen. Double bed in bedroom, 2 TV's with cable, bathroom is in the bedroom. Couch pulls out as a SMALL sleeper so it only holds 1 person. Not ideal if you have 4 people like we did, so somebody sleeps on the floor. They really should notify people that the sleeper does not fit 2 people.
The price includes a nice breakfast buffet. The breakfast buffet closes early M-F they start putting food away at 9am. Makes sense since this is a mostly business hotel. Weekends they keep the buffet open a little longer. If it is closed when you get there just go across the street to the Tuscany their breakfat buffet is open until 11am and it is only 5.99.
Location is about 15 minute walk from the strip, off of Flamingo road. Hotel is perfect for business travelers and right next to Hughes Center.
More than adequate
The one bedroom suite was clean and had all the amenities. The free breakfast was excellent: eggs, sausage, hot and cold cereal, fruit, etc.
It seemed a bit pricey, however.
Great Find
We arrived in Vegas on a Saturday so wanted a 'cheaper' hotel to crash in for the first night before we moved on to one of the more famous ones on the strip. This hotel was a gem, so much so we stayed here for the whole time we were in Vegas. Big rooms (more like an apartment), pristine linen, fridge, huge TV, great breakfast. The hotel is close enough to the strip to walk down there, far enough away to be quiet. Nearby is a great Pub Brewery, McCormick's, Starbucks, Hard Rock Cafe and many more places to eat and drink. There's no casino so only hotel guests are in the lobby, unlike the Bellagio for instance which is constantly full of punters and tourists and drowns any sense of luxury anyway. At $149 a night all week this hotel is a bargain. Do yourself a favour and stay here instead.
Perfect location!
Vegas is all it's hyped up to be, but I agree with the last reviewer that things in this town can get pretty expensive. Luckily, this Residence Inn was not only affordable but well worth the comfort. Rooms are spacious and the friendly staff made our stay enjoyable. The hotel is ideally located right in the heart of Vegas and I recommend it to anyone looking to stay in a nice place for a great price.
Highlight of Visit to Vegas
What a great hotel! it looks newly built tower type property, we had a 2 bedroom room with kitchen and lounge area, situated off the strip, actually 2 blocks back parallel to it. The first night we walked to the strip in the July heat (not recommended) however having got our bearings we realised that all the strip hotels offer free parking so we did this. The Hotel is very friendly and for the price $149 each night inc saturday (have you seen how most hotels bump up the price on a saturday!) plus mon - thurs a free buffet with beer and wine, basic food but hey its free! Hot breakfast included, free wireless internet access in the rooms and the lobby areas, super fast access to 10 times faster than my NTL connection at home. My daughter was chatting with her mates on MSN messenger we linked up with my parents and even hooked up using the webcam, all for free, better than a postacrd!! The pool was great to, this hotel was the highlight of my vegas trip, apart from the colourful lights and awesome sights of so many hotels, i did not like Vegas, to see the shows would cost an absolute fortune, the attractions in most of the hotels had to be paid for, so there wasn't much entertainment for free, I wont be back.
Affordable & Luxurious!!
Very clean rooms and very comfortable. The hotel was great from the moment we arrived which was at noon and had time to relax at the pool before we checked-in.
We were on vacation and the free high speed internet was a real plus since a lot of hotels charge $10 a day.
One thing that made me want to return to this hotel is the spacious suites they have to offer. Our room was a double-queen-two bedroom suite that even a full kitchen--with pots and pans included.
Service was excellent! And if you're looking for the fun and excitement of the Las Vegas strip with an affordable rate, then this is the hotel for you! Highly recommended.

Britt Hayes
Britt Hayes is a writer, movie lover, and sensible sweater enthusiast living in Austin, Texas. She watches too much TV and never eats her vegetables. Her mom is worried about her.
Although Marvel hasn't included a Hulk film in their Phase 3 plans, the possibility for a new solo movie for Bruce Banner and his smashing alter-ego isn't entirely out of the question — Marvel did just make room for a new Spider-Man film on their schedule, after all. And while it doesn't appear that the studio is actively developing a new Hulk movie, Avengers: Age of Ultron star Mark Ruffalo remains optimistic, hinting at the possibilities for his big green character in the future of the MCU.
Ever since the announcement of Captain America: Civil War, we've been curious about how the Russo brothers will begin to adapt Marvel's Civil War comic book story line for the big screen, kicking off a major new arc in the MCU (and one that sees Spider-Man swinging in with a crossover). According to Robert Downey Jr., the seeds for Civil War have already been planted in Avengers: Age of Ultron, once again proving just how much planning and foresight goes into the creation of the MCU.
It was the news we'd all be hoping and wishing and waiting for: last night, Marvel officially announced that they've reached an agreement with Sony for a Spider-Man crossover, which could also allow for MCU characters to crossover into Spidey's own films. On top of that, Marvel is teaming up with Sony for a new 'Spider-Man' movie, to hit theaters in 2017. But who will play the web-slinger? As predicted, it won't be Andrew Garfield. We've got a little more info on Marvel and Sony's plans, which shed even more optimistic light on this very positive (and super exciting!) news.
It's here! The first trailer for Judd Apatow's 'Trainwreck,' written by and starring the consistently delightful Amy Schumer! The film also marks something of a departure for Apatow, whose films have been mostly male-oriented. This time around, Schumer takes the spotlight as a successful, independent woman whose love life is a mess thanks to her deeply-ingrained aversion to monogamy. If we didn't know any better, this could easily be a Paul Feig film—and that's a compliment.
The only official release plans for 'Star Wars' so far include 'The Force Awakens' on December 18, and the first spinoff/standalone film, which will hit theaters on December 16, 2016. As for the rest of the new 'Star Wars' films: it's been reported for a while that Disney plans on releasing a new film each year for the next several years, but the studio hasn't made anything publicly official…until now.
We've been hearing bits and pieces about various elements of 'Avengers: Age of Ultron,' from the origins of Ultron and Vision to who Andy Serkis might be playing in the film. But we haven't heard a whole lot about what's up with Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, the super-powered twins teased at the end of 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier.' What we do know is that they're going up against the Avengers. What we haven't known is why…until now. Plus, Marvel has released a bunch of photos from the upcoming sequel, in case you felt like Hulking-out.
Snickers has really outdone themselves in the WTF department with their ad for this Sunday's Super Bowl. In their latest commercial featuring the "you're not yourself when you're hungry" concept, Danny Trejo takes on the role of Marcia Brady, while Steve Buscemi plays the role of Jan, which is rather timely, given the currently popular 'Brady Bunch' meme that's been taking over Tumblr.
Ever since Marvel formally announced the casting of Benedict Cumberbatch as Sorcerer Supreme in their upcoming 'Doctor Strange' film, we haven't heard much else about the project. Set to be directed by Scott Derrickson, the film is currently scheduled for a 2016 release date, so it's about time that we started hearing a little more about who else will be joining Cumberbatch as the project heads closer to production—like Chiwetel Ejiofor, who is reportedly in talks for a role.
The first 'Star Wars' standalone film is set to hit theaters in 2016, and although it's currently seeking a replacement screenwriter, it looks as though production is gearing up on the Gareth Edwards project. Both Rooney Mara and 'Orphan Black' star Tatiana Maslany are testing for a leading role in the untitled film, which has been rumored as a heist film involving Boba Fett.
It looks like 'Suicide Squad' is still searching for its Rick Flagg. Following Tom Hardy's departure from Warner Bros. upcoming DC super villain project, Jake Gyllenhaal was being eyed to take over. But the actor has basically said "Nah, bro, I'm good" and passed on the film as well. With David Ayer's film hitting the big screen in 2016, WB still has a little time to cast the central role.
Let's be honest here: you probably spend more time browsing your options on Netflix Instant than you do actually watching anything. And now to add to your ongoing decision-making dilemma, Netflix's chief content officer Ted Sarandos has announced that the service plans to start launching 20 (twenty!) new original series a year. Now you'll never run out of options for weekend binge-watching.
The post-credits scene for 'Guardians of the Galaxy' featured a rather unexpected comic book character, which inspired fan speculation over whether or not this particular character would make another appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While we won't see him on the big screen again anytime soon, he is getting his very own comic book sequel to help explain how he ended up in 'Guardians of the Galaxy.'

In 2013, the US Supreme Court took a historic step in United States v Windsor by striking down the Defense of Marriage Act on the grounds that it imposed a "disability on the class [of gay Americans] by refusing to acknowledge a status the State finds to be dignified and proper."1 This milestone in gay rights stands in stark contrast to the ongoing lifetime ban imposed in 1983 on blood donation by men who have ever had sex with men (MSMs) even once.2 As it stands, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) continues to uphold this 30-year-old policy, unaltered, on the grounds that MSMs remain at increased risk of contracting transfusion-transmissible pathogens such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).2

In this blog Art History student Callista Aston from the University of Auckland explains how she helped the De Morgan Foundation to identify the source material for a study in our collection by Evelyn De Morgan: D_EDM_0390. The study is one of several copies which we believe Evelyn undertook in situ at various museums whilst training to be an artist.
A much under researched part of William De Morgan's oeuvre is his designs for stained glass. Between 1865 and 1872 he was known to have worked on stained glass production with Edward Burne-Jones for Morris and Co. As well as contributing to some of Burne-Jones's commissions he also worked on commissions by himself and we are aware that he created designs for 8 churches across the country, of which we believe 5 are still in situ.
De Morgan Foundation acquires rare copy of "The Result of an Experiment" publication of William and Evelyn De Morgan's automatic writings.
Natasha Logan joined us for a short volunteering stint in the winter of 2014. She had previous museum experience but we always hope we can offer something new and unique for our volunteers. Reading Natasha's account of her time with us, we think we may have succeeded in this case!
Hidden away in a dark corner of All Saints Church, in the tiny village of Cawthorne, some wonderful but relatively unknown paintings by Evelyn De Morgan are located.
On August 10th, 1880, William De Morgan, William Morris, Jane Morris and companions left Morris' home of Kelmscott House to journey by boat to Kelmscott Manor in Oxfordshire. A member of the party (possibly William Morris) typed a highly entertaining account of this expedition, noting the towns they passed and places they stopped for the night, the food they ate, and the people they encountered along the way. The De Morgan Foundation holds a transcript of this account in its archive; enjoy this short synopsis!
This week we welcomed our painting conservator, Carol Willoughby. The De Morgan Foundation is undertaking conservation on eleven of Evelyn De Morgan's paintings, and the first step in that process is taking the canvases out of the frames. The paintings and the frames will go to separate specialist conservators. This has been an interesting week for staff and volunteers, as it is a chance to experience the paintings close-up, see them out of their frames and, in some cases, uncover exciting new discoveries!
This week (1st – 7th June) is Volunteers' Week, an annual event celebrating the contribution made by millions of volunteers across the UK. As a small institution, we rely on our dedicated group of volunteers to keep the Foundation running smoothly. Our trusty helpers perform a wide range of tasks, and we'd like to take a little time today to highlight some important activities that couldn't take place without their help.
Online Catalogue
Recently the British Museum put out a call for objects for a project called 'Teaching History in 100 Objects'. This project aims to support teaching of the new history curriculum by creating a set of free, high quality online resources based on museum objects. The British Museum will be showcasing many objects from museums across the UK in order to showcase the potential of local and regional collections in supporting students' learning.
It has long been common knowledge that De Morgan was employed by P&O's ships architect T.E.Colcutt to design schemes and provide tile decorations for the public rooms and circulation areas of twelve P&O liners. Initially supplying stock designs such as the Rose and Trellis, Double Carnation and BBB tiles which were installed in the smoking room of the s.s.Britannia, De Morgan soon progressed to designing elaborate schemes of arcades of trees, or imagined vistas from the ship's voyage.

The healthcare and medical applications are emerging to be an essential segment of smartphone must-haves. With smartphone programs and sophisticated engineering, severe health conditions have now been changed into a simpler answer for fixing medical issues. The programs for healthcare and medical are extremely helpful for sufferers. In the same vein, these apps are extremely effective for hospitals and physicians. The primary benefit of these applications that are medical is that physicians are able to conveniently connect with more patients who may be searching for them. Regardless, when the individual is unable to go to a healthcare facility, he or she and the physician can communicate directly.
Lifestyle management applications can even be downloaded by the sufferers of health conditions in the App Store or Google Play website. These health apps tell them of exercise times, their diet and notify them about necessary remedies right in an instant.
The mobile medical applications (MMAs) market won't experience a slowdown any time soon. According to a research report by Research2Guidance, this year would mark an upsurge of smartphone users who will download health-related apps worldwide. Even application developers are now painstakingly leveraging the mobile health industry by taking a lion's share of e-commerce and anticipated to reach $26 billion globally by 2017. With an unprecedented number of people on the onset of aging, their intensifying demands for medical care are the key drivers pressuring the health industry to heed their needs. In the United States, it is expected on the year 2030 — more than 20 percent of Americans is going to be over the age of 65. This makes these people more prone to cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's along with other risky conditions generally associated with aging.
The situation wherein shifting landscape in the health arena is generating vibrant opportunities for MMAs to offer significantly appropriate strategies to the obstacles of remote patient monitoring and other medical process that need to be determined.
For all it's worth, technology is promising for distant individual patient monitoring. To measure up the rewards, opportunities have sprung up to medical device companies where they can enjoy cost savings without being pressured to manufacture entirely new products, utilizing current programs while putting more advanced capabilities in sensing and data and employing an interface where buyers recognize and fully grasp their need for these devices as essential parts of their everyday life. The effect is that their units are more likely used and adopted correctly without any hassles.
The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has categorized three types of medical apps:
1.) Unregulated: This has the cheapest rates consisting of wellness-centered apps including workout trackers and heart-rate displays fitness sessions. These apps are commonly widely used by lots of people.
2.) Enforcement discretion: This middle classification incorporates disease-concentrated applications that are simple skilled calculators (for example, ,evaluating a Glasgow Coma Scale rating or measuring and establishing mean arterial tension); or offering instruction for people with ailments including cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, and obesity.
3.) Regulated: This highest level includes unique disease tracking and patient treatment that provide vital answers, including infusion pumps. The apps in this level may cause harm to individuals if faulty and these apps must behave as medical units.
In excess of 43,000 wellness-related apps accessible in 2013, merely 103 were FDA-governed. However the regulatory process for smartphones and data aggregation's usage has become in reality, the FDA board has now described the regulatory route for medical apps and released guidance drafting that the medical knowledge aggregation systems is being proposed to be deregulated. This clarification dramatically marked down the hazards that will tie down the possibilities for companies that manufacture medical devices.
Presently, many applications regulated by the FDA are managed as standalone or act to present medical products as extras, and allow the smartphone to behave like a 'dumb-user interface' or perhaps a 'data pipe' to the cloud. Nonetheless, using the clearer regulatory route, rising principles are moving towards using the tablet/smartphone and software to execute more advanced functions, and are actually beginning to push the restrictions.
An widely known example of this setup is the implantable neurostimulation device currently under improvement by Setpoint Medical. This setup is configured via an iPad application. The product is geared toward treating patients with inflammatory conditions that are extremely debilitating. It includes a radio charger, an implantable microregulator, and also provides an iPad prescription software that can be helpful to the patient.
Unveiling Two Critical Issues
It is assumed you will find two vital concerns for medical device businesses entering this market: First, how does one assemble a regulated medical program and combine it right into a medical device?And another very significant related query, how do you earn substantial income from it?
It is noted that effective medical program development begins together with the right mindset in addressing the very first issue. This is simply not merely another software that is mobile. It's not just a software program. MMAs must be treated like any additional medical device. Analyzing the risks are essential and careful system design will make certain that safety critical capabilities are implemented appropriately.
The companies should follow the exact same kind of proactive path used for successful medical devices, after organizations decide to manufacture a medical app. The method is ultimately changed by a a mindset that is inspired by the demand. First, you should establish the intended use. This really is for determining whether the software is going to be controlled by the FDA. Plus it is critical to recognize the predicates. You then must guide your core user specifications so you understand what data will become necessary when it is introduced in the market. Next is creating the high-level process architecture making it sure that it's workable and to lessen risks when individuals are handling it. The ultimate step: advancement beneath the ISO 13485 standards for medical devices.
For instance in managing the pitfalls of incorporating programs in systems that are linked together, a medical software was developed to check individual adherence to therapy for asthma or COPD. This is like VeriHaler that uses wireless acoustic checking to provide important feedback to doctors, patients or additional healthcare providers, marketing correct use and quickly finding impairments in the patient's situation.
In addressing the question about earning decently, the key is based on improving the business design and determining the proposition value early. Within this setting, there's the chance to become extremely imaginative with business designs. For example spend-per-use stats, personalized patient disbursement and risk-sharing reimbursement.
Experts advised understanding the MMA's qualified proposed value and business model in advance. Doing that will help support the sustainability of the app that was created as successfully because of it is effective in its intended uses, arranging it to connect with current company's enterprise approach and assess if FDA participation will be necessary.
Bottom line is the fact that with all the regulatory conditions getting better along with the price of technology hitting ranges that are feasible, connected medical and health apps undoubtedly possess the potential to affect healthcare market. With excellent options available, it's no real surprise that wellness has been eagerly explored on by numerous medical device companies on their growth and expansion plans. It is also obvious if the business models are on the right track, success and sustainability are surely smiling back on you.

Comments about Santini Max2 Chamois Bib Tights:
These tights are some of the most comfortable that I own. I especially like the fact that that have angle traps to keep the pants leg from rising. Plus it just has a cleaner look, hiding the socks. They are also very warm. I've worn them in 40 f temps. Great buy. I have two pair.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great for cold
By TC
from SLC, UT
I am 6 ft, 155 pounds, 30 in waist. Bought a medium and fits great. Have ridden in temperatures from 28-45. Pretty versatile. Lacks a bike of windproof material on inside of legs and in crouch. I normally pair with thin compression shorts in really cold weather. Have worked well.

These tights are quite warm. I think they would be good for temps in the 30's. I found them to be too loose in the crotch, causing the material to catch on the seat. For me, they are not supportive at all of my man parts. That was disappointing and uncomfortable, especially when I was off the bike.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Very Solid for All day Comfort
By Kosher Biker
from Brooklyn, NY
About Me Competitive Cyclist
Was able to wear this all day, chamois is amazing. The legs have slips under your feet so the annoying grippers are not there. I love these. Very sleek design. Only problem is there isn't much personality to them. but they have only one invisible seam on the whole leg.
Pretty good tights
By BamaJason
from Nashville, TN
Comfortable and have good coverage over the torso to provide an extra layer on the cold days. They feel good on the bike, but the only problem I have is there doesn't seem to be enough thermal lining on the inner thigh areas. I have other tights that have an extra panel there and I wish these did too.
Great price for great performance
By Average Joe
from Kansas City
First pair of full length bibs I've owned. Gift for Christmas. I can vouch for riding in 30F weather and feeling very comfortable, being out for a couple hours. Chamois probably isn't gender specific, tends to shove certain parts up into the pelvis a bit whenever I stood up to ride but then again I didn't really adjust much during the ride; if I did, it would have probably fit a little better. Not enough for me to dislike them. 5'-8.5" and 168 lbs and I bought a large... probably couldn't fit any more body in there FYI.
Best pair of tights so far!
By NC Roadie
from NC
So far so awesome! These are great in my own opinion. They are true to size, and give decent support throughout the rides. Fairly warm down to low 40s. Decent padding but overall very comfortable. Will be buying these again. I only gave it four stars cause I haven't worn a five yet.
I love them
By Jarhead Jerry

Great quality bib tights. They are very comfortable and the chamois is pretty good.

Terrific tights for cold weather.
By Bianchi Bob
from New Jersey
Santini products are excellent. I am 5'8" with a thin build and the medium size fits me well. Good leg compression. Fabric kept me comfortably warm on a 40 degree day. I have had two other pairs of these tights for a few seasons and they've held up well. Chamois is perfectly placed and comfortable thin.

Colts' Pagano ready to get started with revamped defense
INDIANAPOLIS -- Chuck Pagano waited patiently last year as the Indianapolis Colts rebuilt their offense. Now, he'll go to work on giving the defense a whole new look.
The Colts' coach finally has the size, depth and personnel to make the transition from Indy's traditional 4-3 defensive front to his preferred 3-4.
"We can do a lot of what you call exotic-type of things going into Year 2 where coming in here changing over from a 4-3 to a 3-4 and doing the things you want to do on third down," Pagano, a former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator, said.
The Colts didn't have nearly as many options last season when they were trying to mix undersized, quick players from their previous defensive system with a group of newcomers that was better suited to play the 3-4.
Linebackers Erik Walden (6 feet 2 inches, 250 pounds) and Lawrence Sidbury (6-3, 261) are bigger, stouter run-stoppers. That should help revamp a defense ranked 31st against the run last season.
Cornerback Greg Toler, a former starter in Arizona, has a knack for being around the football and likes playing man coverage, just the kind of player Pagano loves to build around.
Safety LaRon Landry left the Jets for Indianapolis after a Pro Bowl season and may wind up being the most visible newcomer for the Colts next season.
"He's a game wrecker. He's a game changer," Pagano said.

Wolf Hunting News
Washington Wolf Plan Revised
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) has revised a draft plan for state wolf recovery and management, and will conduct more public review later this year.
The draft state Wolf Conservation and Management Plan was revised after scientific peer review and an earlier public input process, which concluded last year.
Washington Wolves Still Protected by State Laws
Although wolves have been removed from federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) protection in the eastern third of Washington state, they remain protected as a state endangered species throughout Washington.
Under Congressional direction that prevents any judicial review, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has removed the northern Rocky Mountain population of gray wolves from federal endangered status. The action affects wolves in Montana, Idaho, the eastern third of Oregon and Washington and a small area of north central Utah.
Delisting of Wolves in 8 States Begins
On the heels of legislation passed last month with the support of the Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus (CSC) as part of the FY 2011 budget agreement, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) announced this week that it is lifting Endangered Species Act (ESA) protections for 5,500 grey wolves in eight states in the Northern Rockies and Great Lakes and has published a proposed rule to remove gray wolves from ESA designation in the Western Great Lakes.
Michigan Voices Support for Removal of Wolves From Endangered Species List
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources voiced its support for a federal proposal to remove wolves in Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota from the endangered species list and return wolf management to the state.
Montana Wildlife Officials Applaud Congressional Wolf Measure
Montana wildlife officials heaped praise on U.S. Senator Jon Tester as a Congressional measure he helped craft removed gray wolves from the list of threatened and endangered species in Montana, Idaho, and parts of Oregon, Washington and Utah.
Cause of Washington Wolf Death Unclear
The exact cause of death for the Imnaha wolf found dead in early March is unclear.
Washington Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory ran several tests on the carcass looking for injuries, disease and toxins but test results did not point to a specific cause of death.
The only abnormal finding was some internal hemorrhage in the wolf's chest cavity. Forensic analysis did not point to a clear cause of the hemorrhage but biologists believe the hemorrhage may have contributed to the wolf's death.
Alaska Appalled at USFWS Decision
In a decision that ignores subsistence needs of local Alaskans and directly conflicts with sound wildlife management policies aimed at preserving a rapidly declining caribou herd on Unimak Island, the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) dismayed state wildlife managers yesterday by deciding to take no action to help the Unimak Caribou herd.
One of Collared Imnaha Wolves Found Dead
One of the Imnaha pack wolves was found dead yesterday in Wallowa County.
The wolf found was the yearling female collared on Feb. 25. The wolf's radio collar emitted a signal indicating it had been motionless for a minimum of four hours. ODFW was able to reach the site and determine the wolf was dead in the afternoon on March 1.
Oregon DFW Collared 3 Additional Imnaha Wolves
Three additional wolves from the Imnaha Pack were collared by ODFW and its partners last weekend in Wallowa County.
On Feb. 25 a gray yearling male was captured and collared with a GPS collar, a device that will automatically record its location and send the information to ODFW.
Also on Feb. 25, a gray yearling female was captured and fitted with a radio collar, a device that requires biologists to search for it with a radio. The following day (Feb. 26), a gray 2-year-old male was fitted with a GPS collar.
Oregon Wildlife Heritage Foundation Offers Talk on Gray Wolves
The Oregon Wildlife Heritage Foundation invites you to learn about Oregon's top predators, gray wolves and cougars, as it kicks off its Discovering Wildlife Speaker Series with a free presentation by state wildlife biologists on Wednesday, Feb. 16 at 6:30 p.m. in Portland.

V.S. Naipaul, considered by some to be the greatest living craftsman of English prose, is a friend to all women, to womanhood itself.
The Nobel-winning author of Half a Life suffered through a firestorm of criticism this week just to protect those fragile creatures from their own vanity and ambition by declaring that women, by their very nature, are inferior writers.
"I read a piece of writing and within a paragraph or two I know whether it is by a woman or not," Naipaul, 78, said during a chat at the Royal Geographic Society in London.
"I think [it's] unequal to me."

Memoir from the Early Days
From SFZC member Dot Kostriken
Dr. Dorothy Kostriken, a longtime member of San Francisco Zen Center, shares some memories about some of the earliest days at Tassajara in 1967, practicing with Suzuki Roshi, and how these days, at age 81, she is relating to Zen practice and to SFZC. The first practice period at Tassajara was held in 1967, and tangaryo would take place more often than it does now, for anyone interested in joining the students for any extended time. Tangaryo, a kind of traditional sitting initiation at a monastery, would last from one to three days at Tassajara during that time.

Best Uses
Love this banner. It comes on one ribbon (not two like the picture, though there's enough length that you could cut it into two parts if you wanted it to look like the picture). The letters are individually strung on the ribbon, which means you can adjust the spacing between letters. The colors are vivid without being garish. The glitter makes the letters sparkle. I have three young daughters, and this will be hung for three parties a year for a long time. It seems sturdy enough to hold up.
Best Uses
I'm using for my daughter's bday party and it goes perfectly with the other decorations.

Pretty. Simple. Elegant. I loved it.

Very attractive - My guests commented on the color and sparkles. Definitely a great find.
