Live Better. Live Balanced. Avera
Avera's health ministry is focused on helping people feel better and live healthier so they can experience all the good gifts that life has to offer. Caring for the whole person – body, mind and spirit – is central to the Avera mission. We're privileged to not only deliver the highest quality expertise and technology, but also to make an emotional and spiritual connection with patients and their families.
Avera is a regional health system comprised of more than 330 locations in 100 communities throughout eastern South Dakota and areas of four surrounding states. Avera serves a population of nearly 1 million throughout a geographical footprint of 72,000 square miles and 86 counties.
Avera is the health ministry of the Benedictine Sisters of Yankton, S.D., and the Presentation Sisters of Aberdeen, S.D.
As a health ministry rooted in the Gospel, Avera's mission is to make a positive impact in the lives and health of persons and communities by providing quality services guided by Christian values.
- Expert health care in 60 medical specialties
- Quality at national-benchmark levels
- Superior customer service
- A wide range of locally available care
Avera Health is based
in Sioux Falls, S.D.,
with six regional centers:
Avera St. Luke's Hospital
Aberdeen, S.D.
Avera Marshall Regional Medical Center
Marshall, Minn.
Avera Queen of Peace Hospital
Mitchell, S.D.
Avera St. Mary's Hospital

CIM Process
The process creates a scorecard
that measures the extent to
which a Catholic health care
organization has integrated these
six principles into its structures
and operations.
- Solidarity with those who live in poverty
- Holistic care
- Respect for human life
- Participatory community of work and mutual respect
- Stewardship
- Act in communion with the church
Avera facilities are striving
to move past anecdotal examples
to specific measures to ensure
these principles are hardwired
into policies, procedures and
employee training.
The CIM has been carried out at Avera McKennan, Avera St. Luke's, Avera Queen of Peace and Avera Sacred Heart hospitals. In 2012, Avera was the first health care organization to pilot CIM with clinics and physicians through Avera Medical Group. Next, Avera has asked the Veritas Institute to develop a version for central services.
When the Sisters came to South Dakota over a century ago, they were guided by a set of concrete values as a ministry of the Catholic church. Today, CIM helps us ensure that despite the pressures of a changing society, we uphold those same values as we serve people most in need.J. Michael Stebbins, PhD
Executive Vice President of Mission

Avera is proud to partner with the
Washington Pavilion to sponsor the Kirby
Science Discovery Center's Stage Science.
Opening in May 2015, Stage Science serves
as a permanent location to offer daily
science demonstrations.
The first exhibit focused
on Avera's work in genetics,
and included a video on Genetics 101,
and hands-on genetic experiments,
like extracting DNA from wheat germ.
"Since the first sequencing
of the human genome in 2000, genetics
has become the future of medicine.
The Avera Institute for Human Genetics
is truly on the ground floor of the exciting
advancements happening today in genetic
science," said Gareth Davies, PhD,
Chief Scientific Officer with Avera
Institute for Human Genetics.
"Through Stage Science, we hope to give young people a glimpse of what's possible, and possibly inspire some to enter the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics," said Gareth Davies, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer with Avera Institute for Human Genetics.

- Plans to assess and isolate suspected Ebola patients in concert with South Dakota Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention policy
- Plans to transfer confirmed Ebola patients to a government-designated Ebola Treatment Facility
Fortunately, Avera was not presented with an actual case during this time of heightened awareness. Because disease outbreaks can occur unexpectedly at any time, Avera remains ready with our plan for Ebola or other infectious diseases.
Avera Medical Group is an active member of the HCPLAN as well as a strong supporter of the national quality strategy.
Avera Medical Group quality achievements
- Successfully submitted Physician Quality Reporting System data for more than 850 providers. Overall, Avera was above national averages for quality while remaining less expensive than expected.
- Achieved 98 percent Stage 1 or Stage 2 Meaningful Use compliance compared to a national average of only 42 percent successful compliance with Stage 2.
Coordinated Care is specifically designed to help people who have significant barriers to improved health, such as multiple diagnoses, catastrophic illness, health literacy issues, or psychosocial issues such as lack of finances, depression, or lack of health insurance. There is no charge to patients for these services, but rather, Avera recoups the expenses through quality incentives earned through improved outcomes.
- Eight teams across the Avera footprint, each comprised of an RN as team coordinator, a clinic care specialist, and a social worker
- 1,010 patients active in the program
In 2015, Avera's Coordinated Care program was recognized as among the top five of health organizations that participated in a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) Health Care Innovation Challenge Grant.
This is Teresa's journey – we're simply walking side by side with her. Anything she has accomplished she has done. We're just there next to her to give her the support she needs and the inspiration that she truly gives back to us.Kelli Rockafellow, Clinical Care Social Worker
This higher and more consistent level of quality is achieved in part through evidence-based, best-practice protocols. By taking a system-wide approach, these transitions happen more smoothly, improve outcomes and create a better care experience.
Best Practice Success Stories
Emergency Medicine
The Emergency Medicine Service Line continues to strive to improve the patient experience, quality of care delivered, and working environment for staff.
- Standardization initiatives include carts, equipment, medications and patient flow processes so patients receive the same quality service, no matter where they present throughout the Avera system.
- Careflight is developing a centralized communication/dispatch center and, ultimately, a unified aero medical program.
- Implementing these changes is projected to increase revenue by $160,000 and produce savings of more than $380,000.
Avera collaborates with Elekta to equip its locations with advanced cancer treatment technology. This includes linear accelerators, gamma knife and brachytherapy, as well as advanced software for treatment planning, cancer registry and electronic patient records, tying the entire system together.
In addition to providing consistent, high quality care across all Avera Cancer Institute locations, this initiative will save Avera approximately $10 million over the next five years.
Providing customers with the highest quality care is a top priority for Avera. In addition to positive patient outcomes, quality outcomes are tied directly to the financial performance of the health system.
Each year, 7.75 percent of Medicare payments are at risk based on performance in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) reimbursement programs. These programs drive system quality strategy and include preventing patient harm and unnecessary readmissions.
Avera advances quality beyond the required Medicare programs by voluntarily participating in the QUEST program through Premier, Inc. This program applies more stringent measurement than that of CMS, and allows Avera to compare our performance to top performers in the nation.
Quality initiatives fall into the following domains: Patient safety, evidence-based care, patient and family engagement, appropriate hospital use, mortality, cost and efficiency, and community health.
This past year the quality strategy has emphasized using a system approach to opportunities that impact not only quality of patient care but also coding, documentation, and cost of care.
Advanced analytics are being incorporated to validate the scope of the problem followed by performance improvement efforts at a system level. These projects have included transfusion reduction, pneumonia, sepsis, discharge disposition, inpatient colon surgery, surgical site infection, and the relationship of OB inductions to C-section rates.

Bindings for an Arbor draft
Just picked up an Arbor draft, as my dick around jib board, and looking for some bindings to throw on it. I just replaced my 390boss with cartels on my all mountain board and like them a lot. With the malavitas getting stiffer this year anybody think the cartels or malavita will be a little too much binding for that board?
Anybody think the cartels are gunna be too stiff for the draft since they have been soften up this year?

Three out of four business crimes in Turkey are conducted online, and national and international regulations to address the problem are urgently needed, according to Transportation Minister Binali Yildirim.
"The internet means freedom, but ignoring security on this issue is out of the question," Yildirim said.
The cyber crimes, which range from personal data theft to designing and spreading malware, are targeted to disrupt business practices and networks as well as to steal company information and funds.
Greater internet use is one factor in the crime rate. E-trade in Turkey conducted with personal credit cards, increased 50% compared to last year to nearly 10 billion euros. Similarly, the number of broadband subscribers increased 80%, while data traffic marked a 15-fold increase.
"In Turkey, 55 million people are using the internet," Tayfun Acarer, head of Turkey's Telecommunications Authority, told SES Türkiye.
The business crime trend in Turkey parallels the global annual trend of a 13% increase, while elsewhere in the region, online business crime is surging: in Bulgaria it doubled in 2011 from the previous year, as it did in Greece.
Sofia hosted the first regional conference on cyber security and cyber crime last October, but neither country has adopted legislation often enough to keep up with changing technologies.
Online crimes in Turkey are sanctioned by Law No. 5651 on Regulating Broadcasting on the Internet and Fighting Crimes Committed through Internet Broadcasting.
This law, however, does not specifically target online business crimes. The much debated internet filtering system or "safe internet", which kicked off in late 2011, protects against possible hacker and other illegal intrusions in online trading.
Amid growing concerns that online crime will affect the nation's business potential, many have called on the government to pass and implement additional, more effective, regulations.
"This year we will pass a new law which will bring criminal sanctions against all kinds of abusive use of electronic trade," Mahmut Mucahit Findikli, head of parliament's Information and Technology Commission, told SES Türkiye.
The wider benefit of the new law is that it will clarify the framework for electronic trading of goods and services, Findikli added.
Some officials and legal experts argued, however, that legal regulations are not sufficient enough to discourage business crime online.
An effective approach, they said, also requires an increased number of educated IT experts and a more focused police workload.
"The most important measure is for users to take the necessary technical precautions to protect their personal data," Acarer said.
Yet another problem is implementation, Sertel Siraci, a lawyer specialising in online business crime, told SES Türkiye.
He pointed out that online crime requires applying more dynamic precautions than other kinds of crime.
"Online criminals are inventing new ways to cheat every day and it takes time for the experts, prosecutors, police and lawyers to learn the new methods to judge the criminals. This vicious circle has continued for centuries but it plays out much faster in the online domain," he concluded.

The Docket: Police chief candidates get their close-ups, campaign finance problems emerge
Though it ran into the night and butted up against the World Series, there was much coverage of the finalist round for Milwaukee police chief candidates in this morning's papers, along with our first whiff of campaign-finance improprieties in town that could soon be headed for the courthouse.
The Docket is our daily summary of Wisconsin court-related news in the Journal Sentinel and elsewhere. Check this space each weekday morning for a quick digest of the state's legal happenings, and send your news tips here.
- If you didn't stay up into the night, skip baseball and endure several hours of municipal television to get acquainted with the finalists to become Milwaukee's next top cop, here's an overview of the proceedings. Want more? Our colleagues over at the Journal Sentinel's All Politics blog show you how to watch it online. And the paper's Dan Bice recaps some of the not-so-illustrious past of one of the out-of-town candidates.
- That aside, here's our first look at something courthouse insiders tell us is going to come up in legal proceedings relatively soon: problems some Milwaukee aldermen have been having with the legally-required information about their campaign finances.
- A nonprofit community-service agency for troubled teens that frequently gets praise from Milwaukee DA John Chisholm now owes the county $250,000 because of overpayments.
- Speaking of the Milwaukee DA's office: one of the clerks allegedly decided to play prosecutor, and it didn't work out well.
- The first guilty plea in the case of jailed Ald. Mike McGee could be coming next week, and the fiery politician's lawyer wants his trial pushed back into 2008.
- Over in Dane County, a defendant couldn't make it to court, so the court went to the hospital to hold an initial-appearance hearing in intensive care.
- More medical-legal news: the state fund that pays off some malpractice verdicts via money collected from all doctors is now a touchy subject and it looks like there's a lawsuit brewing.
- One more court case from the medical side: that federal lawsuit over state prison inmates and sex changes rolls on.
- This didn't work out so well for Milwaukee, but Brown County now wants state money to build a sex-offender transitional living facility. Watch to see if the not-in-my-backyard debates ensue.
- Two for the Flatlander Files: a FIB gangster ghost tale comes up in Madison and three guys who each have worn blue uniforms and carried badges in the state of Illinois are defendants in case of beating a Wisconsinite.
- There's another complicated high-tech lawsuit over in Madison's federal courthouse, a situation whose repetition has made us suddenly curious.
- The Blanchardville bank collapse has led to another felony conviction.
- And, two days later, we have results from Green Bay's municipal warrant amnesty day: 83 warrants for 33 people cleared up — though more than 4,000 warrants are still on the books.

Durham was also impressed with the other coaching hires made by Coach Paul Johnson. "I think they have put together a great staff." Durham is also happy to have Coach Lamar Owens as his recruiting coach. "With a great head coach like Coach Johnson, it's a great staff."
The visit to Tech was the last one of the spring for Step and his dad. "We are getting close to my high school spring practice and I've been told that I will have coaches coming to see me at my spring practices."
Step continues to have three schools that he is favoring. "Basically my list consists of Georgia Tech, Ole Miss, and Vanderbilt." Durham will likely make his college choice from those three schools. "I'd like to get over to Ole Miss and Vandy sometime in the summer and I'll probably get back up to Georgia Tech in the summer."
At one time, Step was thinking about making his decision after his senior season. An earlier decision may now happen. "I'm leaning towards making it during the middle or sooner in my season. I'll know when the time is right."

James was more than an attorney; he was my friend through what was easily the most difficult chapter in my life to date. James listened to all my questions and worries, and gave me tough advice when it was needed. We took on a party armed with vastly superior fincancial resources, and we handed them their ass, so to speak. James is intelligent, skilled, well rounded, and also a good man. I consider him a friend, and I'll always be grateful for his help. If you need a family law attorney you should hire this man.
Posted by Rachel
James King was my divorce attorney and he expertly guided me through every stage of the process with compassion and expertise. Whenever I had a question or concern he would promptly get back to me and talk through everything with solid expert advice. I would highly recommend him. :)
Posted by Ron
James was a very caring person. He worked with myself and my wife through her lawyer to obtain a very fair settlement. He worked with the intention of achieving an out of court settlement that brought both parties together so that they understood and desired to settle differences with little or no animosity. He focused on the needs of the family and not just the clients. He is a true family lawyer. I would recommend the Harris law firm and James King for your settlement needs. He always answered my phone calls and I felt I had a personal lawyer available all the time. The staff that backed my needs in the office were the best and very professional. I appreciate the opportunity to express my thanks to James.
Anonymous review posted on
James was the only reason my wife and I made it through this last year.
We came to him with a very complicated dispute with my wife's ex, who's scary...he has violent felonies..we spent the last year being put through a lot by the man because of some very bad things that were happening to my wife and step son and threats that he made to me , it even got to the point where we felt we needed to file a stalking order.
We were barring our doors at night, my pregnant wife sleeping at night and me sleeping during the day so we knew we were all safe at all times...the problem we had is that you have to prove to the court you're threatened...saying you're terrified isn't enough...even if it's real and justified.
James ALWAYS made time for us. His work ethic is something not of this universe, in one case we called and left a voicemail for him after hours with a situation we were panicking about, he then called from home almost right away to calm my wife and I down even though he could have easily waited until the next day and it wouldn't have hurt the case at all. Above and beyond.
Every time we filed papers to go to court he was able to get the other party to settle, which I can't thank him enough for. Who wants their wife to have to go head to head in court with an abusive ex? I know I didn't.
The reason it's me, the step father, writing a review is because even though my step sons family absolutely hated me and wished I'd disappear...James was able to negotiate us from a point where I was threatened with both violence and trespassing charges were I ever to step on their property to today, where I get to drop my step son off and pick him up in place of my wife for the visitation schedule.
In short my wife no longer needs to be face to face with someone who hurt her and scares her to this day, it's been more peaceful than ever in my sons life between his parents since we started this schedule, and I finally feel like I'm able to protect my family.
James fixed our lives and has our business indefinitely.
Even if your needs are nothing like ours I still suggest you call James, he's the best I've ever seen at what he does, he is very well connected...and most importantly he was always better than their lawyer.
Posted by Camy G
I will always recommend Mr : James King to everyone looking for an Attny . He'll be always there to answer your legal questions, very experienced effective , and very well prepared/organised . The best family Attny you could find , he'll will put your best interest on the first place ( and NOT his, like unfortunatly , very many Attny's do) .Mr King James will solve your legal issues keeping the things simple, he will never give you wrong advices by the intention to complicate your matter just for "the love" of making more money out of you. For all of you out there reading this review or looking to hire an Attny , I would like to add one more thing/advice. Be VERY carefull !!! when chosing to hire an Attny for your case. Me, personal before hireing Mr , King , I have hired an Attorney ,(that I don''t want to name hire ) that beside the fact that he has over OVERcharged( $50.000) me for this unprofessional services he has left many aspects of my case unsolved . . Mr King has solved my case in a very professional manier , because looks like Mr King James King cares about his clients and of course he cares about his reputation as Attorney at Law . Thank you Mr King for all you did for me , for solving my case ,and thank you for being that honest Attorney that is so hard to find . Wish you all of my best . Regards Camy G ( your client)

The Canadian sports media goes crazy over any Canadian team now and I'm sure CBC or TSN would be all over a deal. Hell, CBC even shows games in Punjabi so I'm sure they'd want to serve English Nordique fans. As for financial backing, the municipality is building them a rink and there's not even a team yet so clearly there's money to back them.
Also, the Canadian dollar argument isn't as meaningful as it used to be since the CAN dollar has been pretty high for quite a while.
The problem with expansion in Canada from the NHL point of view is that the media and citizens are already into hockey. That is, the NHL wants teams in new areas (like Seattle) where the television market is large and they can get new fans watching hockey, buying merchandise, etc. As I said before, I would like a team in Quebec City.

Tactical Light for Glock

Posted over 7 years ago
Anyone tell me if there is a good quality light that can be used on a glock handgun that will still use the standard holster. I'm have to provide information to my highers why it would be a great tool to be available for a backup light source for me and my fellow K9 officers. Multiple times have we come across a suspect during a search or track, but have a dog in one hand and have to make the choice between flashlight and handgun for the other. Trying to have a second option available, not the main search source, just as a second option if needed. If you have information or studies that can help me in convincing the highers that we should have this option available, please help. thanks

I don't know of any that will allow you to use the standard holster. I use the Streamlight TLR-1. It ranges from $90-125 depending on where you buy. It is a very bright LED and works very well.

Safariland makes a holster that we use.
They make a duty belt hoster also.

Blackhawk also makes one of it's Omega holsters for the gun/light combo. It's not molded, so it's pretty universal.

the only way you can use the standard holster is to carry the tac light in a pouch on your belt. I tried that off duty as an experiment with the glock light and it turns out to be a logistical nightmare. you need both hands to put the light on the gun after drawing it and it was not a speedy process and i don't think it would ever be fast, even with lots of practice. Far easier, and what I did was get a holster that allows the tac light to remain on the gun like the one pictured in pete114's post. I went to a safariland holster also.

well thanks for the imput guys. I am trying to write a proposal to our department to allow our K9 officers to carry a light on our sidearm as an alternative light source, if we were to come across a suspect while tracking or searching. Usually we end up with either a flashlight and dog, or gun and dog.....we think we really need the option on the weapon mounted light, but our staff feels it is more of a liability due to people wanting to search with the light on their weapon and pointing their gun at people....I would like to get some imput from both the pro's and con's, and your department has a policy on carrying weapon mounted lights. I think this will be some labor intensive research to fnd what is needed to get it approved. If there is anyone out here that can give me some insight, and wouldn't mind sending me a copy of their department policy, what type of light you use, and holster used. Please I need the good and the bad if you have it...any help is greatly apprecicated. Trying to make it safer for our officers and K9's.

Our K9 Unit went to pistol mounted light and holster for just that reason years ago. It only make sense for the reasons you gave Lexpddj. The only others to have that set up in our PD are SWAT guys in Patrol.

Venerable Engelmar Unzeitig
- Angel of Dachau
- Hubert Unzeitig
Professed priest in the Congregation of Missionaries of Mariannhill, ordained in 1939 and taking the name Engelmar. Parish priest in Glöckelberg, Czech Republic. Arrested by the Gestapo on 21 April 1941 for the crime of being a priest and preaching against the teachings of the Nazis, he was sent to the Dachau concentration camp where he ministered to other prisoners. He learned Russian so he could minister to prisoners from Eastern Europe. He volunteered to tend to prisoners suffering from typhoid and died of the disease himself.
- 1 March 1911 in Czech Republic as Hubert Unzeitig
- 2 March 1945 in Dachau, Oberbayern, Germany of typhoid fever
- 3 July 2009 by Pope Benedict XVI (decree of heroic virtues)
Whatever we do, whatever we want, is surely simply the grace that carries us and guides us. God's almighty grace helps us overcome obstacles.
Love doubles our strength, makes us inventive, makes us feel content and inwardly free. If people would only realise what God has in store for those who love him!
Even behind the hardest sacrifices and worst suffering stands God with his Fatherly love, who is satisfied with the good will of his children and gives them and others happiness.'

Nathan - Afraid to die
Nathan woke up to the sounds of banging next door, so naturally he went to look. He knocked on the door just to hear 'get lost you freak!' Rude. Everyone here was so rude, ignorant and so brutal. Nathan hated it, but still, he wanted to finish this league. He returned to the room, returned his pokémon, grabbed a sandwich, and left the hotel. His first stop was the market, to buy essentials needed for surviving, as he reached the market he released Nitro to help him with the carrying. He gave Nitro a large tent and some blankets, and got some berries and other food seeds to carry. He knew that Celebi and Buzz were both good with plants so he came up with the idea that perhaps he could instantly grow berries! It was a longshot idea but it just might work! He also bought a smallish kind of axe, enough to cut small logs for firewood. Nath had already planned everything through, the sleeping arrangements, the food, but the only thing troubling Nath was water. He needed water, Nath was already starting to panic! He tried to think. 'Surely there's rivers, then Celebi's ability purify... No, it sounds good but I can't take risks... or if Celebi and Glade use their psychic to remove the dirt... May take some practise but it just might work!' Nath was thinking so hard, he said all that out loud, making people turn to him and stare at him. He felt very awkward, and slightly uncomfortable, but he felt pleased that he had thought up an idea. Nath was walking back to the hotel when he heard a couple talking about one of the badge battles from downstairs. Curious, Nathan went to see what was going on, and it was true. Apparently, according to the information he received from another man, the person challenging people to battles was a Team Magma grunt. Nath was determined to battle this guy, so he walked up and stated 'I wish to challenge you! I bid 1 badge piece!'

Qui-Gon Jinn
this wiki
|Dark times are ahead and forces of light must remain.This is the path of only a few jedi.
|~ Qui-Gon's spirit to Yoda, on Dagobath
|The ability to speak does not make you intelligent.
|~ Qui-Gon, annoyed by Jar Jar Binks.
Qui-Gon Jinn was a Jedi Master, the mentor of Obi-Wan Kenobi and the deuteragonist in the 1999 film, Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace. The film was the first of George Lucas' prequel trilogy. He is portrayed by Liam Neeson, who also plays Bryan Mills and Aslan.
Qui-Gon Jinn was the first who met Anakin Skywalker as a young boy and could sense the Force in him. At the time, he believed that Anakin was the Chosen One who would bring balance to the Force when Yoda, Obi-Wan, and the Council did not believe so.
He and Obi-Wan were entrusted with protecting Queen Amidala from the Trade Federation, secretly working for the Sith. He engages in battle with Darth Maul, twice: first on Tattooine and again on Naboo. Obi-Wan battles alongside Qui-Gon in the second lightsaber duel against Darth Maul. He wields a green lightsaber and was slain by Darth Maul. He was portrayed by actor Liam Neeson.
Star Wars - Episode I: The Phantom Menace
The film opens when Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, under the guise of Senate Ambassadors, are sent to negotiate with Viceroy Nute Gunray of the Trade Federation. Unbeknownst to the Jedi that the Viceroy was secretly serving Darth Sidious , he tries to kill the two. The Jedi escape and sneak onto a warship, ready to strike the planet, Naboo. On Naboo, several battle droids attack the jungle outside the city of Queen Amidala and the Jedi are caught in the middle of it. Qui-Gon saves a Gungan called Jar-Jar Binks and he becomes grateful for the deed. Qui-gon has Jar Jar take them to the Gungan city to speak with their high council.
The Gungan leader, Boss Nass, refused to cooperate and hope Naboo will suffer. Under the mind control of the Force, Boss Nass offers transportation and "sells" Jar Jar to Qui-Gon. The two Jedi and Jar Jar sneak in to city, rescue the queen and escape Naboo to Coruscant. A Federation warship damages the Royal Airship and everyone takes refuge on the desolate desert, Tatooine.
Qui-Gon, Jar Jar, R2-D2 and Padme (secretly the queen) travel to the nearest town and find a mechanic shop. The shop is owned by a slave trader called Watto who owns the Skywalkers: Anakin and his mother Shmi. Qui-Gon could not afford the repair parts and Anakin takes his new friends home with him. Anakin tells Qui-Gon that he could enter an upcoming podrace and use the prize money to buy the parts. Qui-Gon agrees and so does Watto and Qui-Gon senses something about Anakin. The night before the race, Qui-Gon takes a blood sample from Anakin and sends it to Obi-Wan to examine it. The midi-chlorians in the blood were off the charts and if Anakin has Jedi blood in him, then he could be the Chosen One. Before the race, Qui-Gon raises the stakes and offers freedom for the Skywalkers if he wins. Watto agrees but only one can be free, to which he chooses the boy.
Anakin wins the race, the parts are paid for and Anakin was now free. Qui-Gon told him he could be trained to be a Jedi. Anakin did not want to leave his mother behind but she makes him go. On the way back to the ship, the two are ambushed by Darth Maul , Darth Sidious' apprentice. Anakin runs to the ship while Qui-Gon duels with the Sith Lord. The match ends in a draw as Qui-Gon escapes onto the ship.
The ship reaches Coruscant and Qui-Gon informs the council of his previous encounters. He tells them the Sith have secretly returned and maybe planning something big. He also tells Yoda and Mace Windu about Anakin and how he senses the Force in him and how its powerful. The Council hesitantly agrees to examine Anakin and they conclude that he is too old to be trained and sense a piece of the dark side in him. Qui-Gon offers to train him but was forbade to due to him already having a Padawan. Qui-Gon then says Obi-Wan no longer needs training and is ready to be a Jedi Master. Windu tells them that this all will be dealt later as he sends the three of him to assist the Queen in launching a counterstrike on the Trade Federation and to see if Darth Maul will be there as well.
They all return to Naboo and succeed in getting the Gungan army to fight for them. Jar Jar leads the Gungan against the droid army in the meadows, Anakin leads the starfighters in a space battle, the queen and her guards sneak into the palace and Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are left to duel Darth Maul.
Maul fights successfully. He pushes Obi-Wan aside and duels Qui-Gon on his own. Obi-Wan became trapped temporarily and Qui-Gon was left to duel Maul to which Maul stabs him. Obi-Wan breaks free and duels Maul fiercely, to which he uses Qui-Gon's lightsaber and slice Maul in half. Obi-Wan weeps over his master's body and before dying Qui-Gon asks Obi-Wan to train Anakin for him to which he agrees. The viceroy gets taken into custody and the newly appointed Chancellor Palpatine and the Jedi Council arrive. Obi-Wan asks Yoda's permission to train Anakin for Qui-Gon's sake and he agrees. Qui-Gon's body is burned in a pyre and mourned by everyone he knew.

This is such an easy and super yummy recipe! I made it for dinner tonight and everyone just luved it. It has a really nice texture and the taste its scrumptious. I especially like the idea of adding in peppers. They make the whole thing special. I used mixed bell peppers since thats what I had on hand, added in some dill and left out the sugar and hot sauce. But other than that I followed the recipe exactly and it was just right. Thanks so much for sharing this keeper of a recipe with us, Irish Rose. Made and reviewed for Every Day is a Holiday Tag May 09.
Loved it, but needs 6 eggs instead of 4.
Very tasty breakfast!! I skipped the hot sauce because it's just too early-LOL! This came together very quick which is a plus. I loved the potato,onion,green pepper combo. Thanks so much for posting! Made for My 3 Chefs '08.

March 7, 2002 | The human genome became that much more accessible in January when Affymetrix unveiled its new U133 Human Genome GeneChip set. Squeezing essentially all of the human genes onto a pair of DNA microarrays has both symbolic and more practical implications.
The company's last human genome offering was a collection of five chips (U95) housing an estimated 60,000 sequences; however many were poorly characterized expressed sequence tags (ESTs)-fragments of expressed genes. The new dual-chip set takes advantage of the nearly complete genomic sequence, and targets 33,000 of the "best characterized" genes- a number that closely resembles current estimates of the total number of human genes.
"With the U95 set, it seemed that many of the ESTs on the chips probably did not represent distinct and different genes," says geneticist Eric Hoffman, from Washington, D.C.'s Children's National Medical Center, one of the nation's largest gene expression profiling groups. Hoffman hopes the new chip will be "faster, cheaper, better," and he points to the recent release of the sequence of every dot on the U133 chips, facilitating comparisons between generations of arrays. "This has delighted the academic community," says Hoffman.—Malorye A. Branca

The Little Green500 List - November 2010
The Little Green500 seeks to be more inclusive in its definition of a supercomputer and continues to strive towards the goal of raising awareness in the energy efficiency of supercomputing. Conventional wisdom tells us that the larger a machine is, the lower its efficiency. However, the current Little Green500 shows us that even the largest machines can compete on efficiency with their smaller counterparts.
The four most uniquely greenest supercomputers on the Green500 also sit atop the Little Green500.
- IBM BlueGene/Q, the "Greenest Supercomputer in the World"
- GRAPE-DR, the "Greenest Exotic Supercomputer in the World"
- Tsubame 2.0, the "Greenest Production Supercomputer in the World"
- EcoG, the "Greenest Self-Built Supercomputer in the World"
Tsubame 2.0 is unique on the list in having submitted a subset of the machine to the Little Green500, increasing the efficiency of the submission from 958.35 Mflops/Watt on the Green500 to 1,031.92 Mflops/Watt on the Little Green500. We hope that more submissions will include numbers for the Little Green500 in the future. The first machine on the Little Green500 that is not on the current edition of the Green500 is the Jazz supercomputer at #5, which shares much of its design with the larger GPU supercomputers and results in similar
efficiency. Of the rest of the 10 greenest supercomputers on the Green500, only 3 are holdovers from the previous release, the QPACE PowerXCell machines from IBM.
As with the Green500, the Little Green500 is dominated by accelerator-based supercomputers. In fact, only one machine of the 10 greenest on the Little Green500 is based on standard CPUs, the Fujitsu K computer based on the SPARC64 architecture. Even though we continue to see a trend of large supercomputers competing better than expected with their smaller counterparts, the Little Green500 continues to see greater average efficiency than the Green500 list with an average of 236 Mflops/Watt over the 172.66 Mflops/Watt seen on the Green500 list this release.
Listed below are the Little Green500's Top 10 most energy-efficient supercomputers in the world as of November 2010.

Is Lawrence Block giving his stamp-collecting hit man the last word?
If 'Hit Me' (Mulholland Books) turns out to be Lawrence Block's last work of fiction, as the 74-year-old mystery grandmaster suggested to the New York Daily News it might be, then it's a fine finale for a writer who never stopped growing, and who allowed some of his series characters the same privilege of changing.
I can't remember if I first found Block through his old fiction-writing column in Writer's Digest, or through one of his early Matthew Scudder or Bernie Rhodenbarr mysteries. But from the beginning I found his writing like pizza: good even in its ordinary manifestations, mind-blowing in its excellent ones. As a reader, I feel the same way about his late friend and occasional collaborator, Donald E. Westlake. As professional writers of popular fiction, they saw their job as keeping readers entertained enough to turn the page, and turn the pages we did. »Read Full Blog Post

Goalkeeper Oswaldo Sanchez, the captain of the Mexican national team, was arrested and detained for two hours after guests at the Chicago hotel where the Mexican players stayed after their 4-0 win on Sunday complained about noise, according to media reports.
Sanchez was arrested after reportedly resisting police, who arrived at the hotel in response to complaints about the Mexican players. He paid a $1,000 bail.
"The police turned up to stop the trouble-makers and Sanchez resisted, for which he was held for two hours and had to pay bail of $1,000," according to Reuters, which reported that Sanchez would have to appear in court on July 11.
Mexico's win over Peru drew a crowd of 33,068.

Cartoon fans immediately tune into these character-rich candies. Use Candy Melts® and a Scooby-Doo Mini Treats Cake Pan to form the hound-dog heads, and finish with piped-icing details.
