Poll: Conservatives Are the Anti-Crist; A Ham Sandwich Could Defeat Rick Scott for Governor
As Gov. Rick Scott's disapproval rating keeps climbing, pollsters have run out of people to compare him with -- that's why Public Policy Polling says a hypothetical gubernatorial race between Scott and a ham sandwich would be a runaway for the lunch meat.
The pollsters were surveying for the governor's approval rating yet again and at the same time attempting to see how he'd fare against other state politicians if the race for governor were held today -- finding that voters are "pretty warm" to the idea of former Gov. Charlie Crist running for governor as a Democrat.
"If Charlie Crist has a future in electoral politics, it's probably as a Democrat," Public Policy Polling President Dean Debnam says. "And while he would trounce Rick Scott, the reality is that so would a ham sandwich as the governor continues to become more and more unpopular."
Respondents to the poll across the ideological spectrum agreed that Crist should become a Democrat.
Upcoming Events
When asked about the hypothetical matchup between Scott and Crist, it looks like a runaway in almost any fashion, especially among independent voters.
Given the choices of Scott and Crist, 73 percent of self-described "moderate" voters say they would vote for Crist, compared to 22 percent for Scott.
Obviously, the results are even more slanted from the "somewhat liberal" (78 percent to 10 percent) and "very liberal" respondents (80 percent to 9 percent) in favor of Crist.
The conservative side, however, came with some different answers.
Those who said they were "somewhat conservative" were nearly split on Scott versus Crist, with 43 percent saying they'd vote for Scott and 42 percent for Crist -- which is well within the margin of error (3.4 percentage points).
That brings us to the point of ultraconservatives being the anti-Crist.
Seventy-seven percent of those identifying as "very conservative" would keep Gov. Scott, while only 16 percent would go for Crist.
Poll respondents gave Alex Sink -- Scott's foe in the last election -- a 22-point lead over the governor in a hypothetical election held today.
PPP is a self-admitted Democratic-affiliated polling firm, although the Wall Street Journal found it as one of the most accurate in the country during the last election cycle.
Out of the 848 Florida voters surveyed, 27 percent identified as liberal, 30 percent as moderate, and 43 percent as conservative.

Short on answers
I really don't know all the answers.
That was confirmed ever so quickly the evening of March 9 in the commons at Steubenville High School where I was a member of the Herald-Star's team that was one of 15 participating in the Steubenville Kiwanis Club's third-annual trivia competition.
I had missed the initial two installments of this fundraiser that the club has adopted and vowed that I would be a part of it this time around.
When it came to having the answers, I knew for sure that Jesus wept over the death of his friend Lazarus.
I knew what a gerund was as I should, given my respect for the English language.
And I knew Sandra Day O'Connor was the first female justice on the Supreme Court.
Everything else was pretty much a tossup, which didn't make me much of an asset to my team.
It was comprised of, in addition to me; Better Half, recruited by marriage; Ross Gallabrese, executive editor of the Herald-Star and The Weirton Daily Times; Brooke County reporter Warren Scott; his wife, Mary, who works in the advertising department; and their daughter Jessica.
We finished in 12th place.
We had joked in the newsroom in the days leading up to the event – when more people supposed to be on our team were dropping like flies – that we would enjoy some moderate success if there were a category, for instance, devoted exclusively to "Big Valley" western trivia.
I am razzed in the office because I know what's going to happen on any given episode of this 1960s western within the first 10 seconds of the show.
The first-place team winning $500 was named "Guess Who's Back," winners for the third year. They wore red T-shirts with a bullseye on the back.
Second-place honors went to the "Barnesville" team, earning them $250.
The Oak Glen "Bear-aniacs" finished third and got $100.
The judges were Peggy Pugh, Ray Agresta and Paul Brandt at the event that included a Chinese auction – I didn't win anything – and a 50-50 drawing where the winner took home $225 – I didn't win that either.
Other teams were Nursing Corps, Wesbanco South, Eastern Gateway Community College, T-Town, Starkdale Presbyterian Church, Franciscan University of Steubenville, the Hindman family, Steubenville High School, Library Wizards, Wesbanco North and Trinity Health System.
"It was a very successful fundraiser for Kiwanis," said Tom Timmons, the club's secretary-treasurer who got this fundraiser going locally, encouraged by his sister, Sue Busler of Maryville, Ill.
Busler belongs to the Maryville Kiwanis Club, a relatively small group that organizes a Trivia Night as its major annual fundraiser, but trivia competitions are extremely popular in her neck of the woods. They are held throughout the St. Louis metro area on a regular basis.
The competition involved 10 categories of questions – History 101, dogs and cats, "Day and Night," actors' names, board games, English, nicknames, Bible challenge, name the movie based on a line from it, and name the artist and the album name.
Not a Barkley in the bunch of it all (Trivia hint: The Barkleys were the family in "The Big Valley.")
With the local club having the most teams participating this year, the plan is to have even more next year.
"Our goal is to get 20 teams next year," Timmons said, noting profits from the event are used to support the club's community and youth service projects.
Next year's event already is on the calendar. It's March 8, 2014.
See you there!
And in case you were wondering, "Big Valley" is set in Stockton, Calif.

If you're looking for a tutor for chemistry, math, writing, or GRE or SAT prep, look no further! Since 2008 I've tutored high school and college students from a wide range of Boston-area schools. I'm familiar with a wide range of curricula but always take care to review a teacher or professor's specific approach prior to tutorial sessions so as to make the most of our time.
I'm currently abroad but am offering tutorial sessions at a cut-rate price via Skype or FaceTime. So let me know if I can help you with your class - I look forward to meeting you!

Clark helped me so much with my organic and biochemistry class. As a student at Boston University, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find a tutor that had the extensive knowledge needed to help explain the concepts to me that I wasn't understanding. However, Clark was able to answer all of my questions and more. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated to helping me in whatever way possible. Even when our schedules didn't overlap, he helped me via email and text to make sure that I got the help that I needed before my next test. I highly recommend him to a student of any level.
We had a great initial meeting and I feel much more confident on the material we reviewed for my upcoming exam.
Clark has been tutoring my son in AP Chemistry for the past several months. He does a great job, and my son really enjoys working with him. He is very responsive, and is very accommodating around scheduling. He has been extremely flexible, as well, and has been able to schedule 2 and 3 hour sessions vs. the standard 1-hour session, which has really helped my son. He is an excellent communicator via email and texting. I would highly recommend Clark as a tutor.
Clark helped me with my Chem 1 class. He was very patient, explained concepts in a way that I could understand, and had me explain problems out so that I could better grasp the concepts. I've always struggled with chemistry and he explained everything in a way I could understand. I highly recommend this tutor!
Clark is a great match for my son, they are forming a great working relationship. He is intelligent and is helping with my son's confidence with this difficult college level class.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I've tutored Algebra both privately and with the Community Charter School of Cambridge.
Ever since the age of 12, I've been fascinated by chemistry. In high school, I couldn't get enough of it. When the opportunity came to study at Harvard in the summer after my junior year, I independently prepared for the AP exam and went on to take organic chemistry I and II. I majored in chemistry at Boston University, and worked in organic, inorganic, and materials labs. During my college years, I also grew a fondness for tutoring. I continued to tutor privately after graduation, and now have more than six years' experience.
My major was chemistry; I took two semesters of physics, three semesters of math, three semesters of physical chemistry, two semesters of general chemistry, four semesters of organic chemistry, and one semester of biochemistry. So for any math, chemistry, biochemistry and physics on the MCAT, I'm qualified to tutor. I also have six years' experience working in journalism as a writer and editor, and I believe that qualifies me for the verbal section.
Regarding general and cell biology, anatomy and the like: These are not my areas of expertise, but MCAT students are often better versed in these areas and need more help with the physical sciences. I know this because I've found students on my own in the past who have asked for MCAT help in the physical sciences, and our sessions went just fine.
One option perhaps is that I can clearly state in my WyzAnt profile that I will be able to help specifically in science and math, not biology. I just would like to be able to contact students who ask for MCAT help, specifically in science (see Saba, from zip code 02125, who posted on 2/23). Thanks for your consideration.
I earned a B.A. in Chemistry from Boston University, having taken 4 semesters of undergraduate and graduate-level Organic Chemistry.

If you're like many individuals, you've been searching for effective ways of how to get white teeth. The good news is that there are many options at your disposal. The bad news is that it can seem daunting to know what to do, what to try and where to turn.
Right here, you'll find an overview of the many different options of how to get white teeth, and you should see for yourself what may be the best match for you.
Professional and Clinical Treatments
The first place many people turn to see how to get white teeth is the dentist, of course. Your dentist will be able to provide you with high quality, professional and clinical treatments. These will typically involve the latest, cutting-edge technology, and they'll offer you fantastic results.
You will absolutely get much whiter teeth, and you'll get a safe and effective treatment that you can put your trust into. The downside of the dentist is the cost, which can be staggering. A cosmetic procedure like this won't be covered by insurance, so it's all out of pocket. Depending on what kind of procedure you undergo or what kind of long term treatment plan you see, the cost can be in the hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Whether or not the effectiveness of the results is worth it for you is, of course, a personal decision. But the cost scares most people and away and leads them to start thinking about different ways of how to get white teeth.
Homemade Natural Treatments
Many people also want to learn about how to get white teeth through homemade, natural treatments. These are of course the cheapest and typically most convenient to utilize. The results may not be clinical strength, of course, but the difference in cost couldn't be greater either.
There are many different recipes that you can try to use with this. Baking soda is proven to be effective, as are mixtures of acidic fruits, plus salt for abrasion. Hydrogen peroxide can also be used effectively. So there are lots of different homemade, natural teeth whitening remedies which you may want to consider giving a try if that sounds like it's up your alley.
Kits, Strips and Pens
There's a huge market today of consumer products that you can purchase over the counter or from online retailers and websites for how to get white teeth. You'll find various different offerings including teeth whitening kits and trays, teeth whitening strips, gels, pens and more.
Some come from major brands like Crest, while others are specific brands focusing solely on teeth whitening products. some will be found in stores, while others can be purchased only online.
Many of these treatments offer professional grade results and quality, and do so at a fraction of the upfront cost. They are effective and safe, and can get you the appearance you've been craving. You'll also have the convenience of applying the treatments from home, on your own time and at your own schedule. Some people don't like having to take this kind of hands on approach, but when you're saving hundreds upon hundreds of dollars, that's usually a decent trade off to make.
Clearly there are many different options to consider, and in addition to the above, surely you can find others too. One product that seems to have risen to the top is Smile 4 You, which is a teeth whitening kit. It's the best in its class and its nearly unanimously loved by all consumers who give it a chance. That's the golden rule – find something that consumers love and recommend, because they're the ones you can trust.
Smile 4 You uses a safe and effective gel formula which is also used in clinical settings. The product is FDA approved, and comes with a 14 day money back guarantee. It just takes 30 minutes per treatment over the course of two weeks, and you can get 11 full shades whiter and lighter. Those are drastic results obtained pretty quickly and easily, and you'll love to put it into action for yourself. With the affordable cost, product safety and glowing reviews, there's nothing to lose by checking this solution out for starters.
Ultimately, remember that different solutions will work better for different people. You not only are looking for results, you're looking for a solution for how to get white teeth which matches your budget, matches your preferences in terms of what you're seeking, and more. So find the option which suits you best and find something which is highly regarded by consumers and you'll be able to rest easy knowing that you made the right choice.

This a question, you people have to ponder...
actually Apple has $150 bln in cash on hand while HPQ still has a net debt position - Apple's revenues and earnings are still expected to grow in 2014 while Meg Whitman just confirmed that HPQ won't grow in 2014
and of course Apple enjoys MUCH higer margins than HPQ and will continue to do so despite increasing margin pressures in the smartphone market.
I am no fan of Apple either and think that in the end they will lose entirely against Google (they already lost the race in all other countries of the world, except for the US) but today this is still the strongest company in tech on the world. So don't compare Apple and HPQ - they are worlds apart
Don't compare AAPL to HPQ.. Sure. Don't compare MSFT to AAPL. But you don't forget that it was Bill Gates that saved AAPL II.
AAPL's margin and unit sale price will be squeezed sooner than you most people think. Sure AAPL has a ton of money, but the market is is huge too. It is all relative in scale...
I don't love HPQ to death. I love fair price. Every company can potentially die, but the call it dead 3 years ago and it still does not die.... hey...
Yes she indicated no revenue growth in 2014, but that was the expectation of analysts anyway... per Yahoo stats analysts revenue estimates are 111.4B in 2013 and 108.9B in 2014.
tardboy, you comparing HPQ with AAPL...... lmao..looks like you're the only one pondering.
Sell and move on
You must be a 10year old kid. Apple has 147 billion cash. Hpq is 14 billion in debt
Sentiment: Strong Sell
AAPL 450B market cap. HPQ only 45B and shinking..

I saw that in the past there were special offers for D* customers, but couldn't find anything recent. Been with D* for 11 years and get some nice discounts from them on occasion, but I like the Dish line-up better. And have been getting frustrated with the D*DVRs. Not a big enough sports fan to pay for the special packages.

Hard to the Mat - NextDoorTwink
Models: Alex Love and Dakota White
Thanks to county budget cuts, students are being forced to share lockers in gym class. Dakota has been paired up with Alex. Alex takes punctuality seriously and always tries to beat Dakota to their locker first so he can be ready sooner. It's too bad for Alex that Dakota loves to get on the nerves of cute boys. Dakota times himself perfectly in order to be at the locker precisely when Alex arrives. Alex is quick to comprehend this little game. At first he's annoyed, but when Dakota grabs Alex's dick, Alex changes his mind! Since class doesn't start for another hour, the guys decide to have some fun in the empty locker room. Alex is a little shy and nervous about hooking up on school grounds, so Dakota suggests they put on some wrestling tights and go for a roll on the mats! Alex is game for a good time, and the boys roll and play on the floor. When horseplay moves to include dry humping and kissing, the tights come off and the naked boys grind their nubile bodies against each other. Dakota has been waiting to get his dick inside Alex's mouth ever since they met at the beginning of the semester. And wow do Alex's lips feel good!! Dakota is enjoying a taste of Alex's sweet asshole. Then Dakota is sliding his hard, juicy dong into that tight pocket for a proper pounding. See these super hot Next Door Twinks take advantage of the empty locker room and their raging hormones!

Triple Sec
The name says it all. Or does it? You're drinking vodka. Lots of it.
We will avoid all Sex and the City references here, but the fact remains: This cocktail is classic for a reason.
There's a simple structure behind all sours, a family of citrus-based cocktails.
Avocado Margarita
Inspired by the quintessential version served at Curra's Grill in Austin. Trust us, it's good!
The Secret to a Perfect Margarita
Having made many, many margaritas according to all sorts of proportional directives, I have finally determined (for my own tastes, at least) that the very best margaritas are concocted as follows.
Liqueurs are sweetened, flavored spirits that are served as an after-dinner drink, mixed into cocktails, or used as an ingredient in cooking and baking. The base of a liqueur—which can be brandy, rum, whiskey, or another alcohol—can be flavored with a wide range of ingredients, including fruits, herbs, and flowers. Orange Liqueurs There are a...

Orange Liqueurs
There are a number of different orange liqueurs on the market. Two are generic styles: triple sec and curaçao. Triple sec is a clear liqueur made from neutral grain alcohol (essentially vodka) that has been sweetened with sugar and flavored with orange peels.

Estimating the number of grafts for hair transplant procedure
Web reference: http://youtu.be/qKn0Qgdauc8
An experienced doctor can give you an accurate estimate in person
Web reference: http://drtorgerson.com/surgical-procedure/hair-transplant/
Understand what you want and what you need
FUE is just a method of harvesting grafts. FUE is a great surgery but most people who want the FUE is mislead into thinking it is the best surgery.
Many doctors push FUE or Neograft or ARTAS claiming "no scar" or "minimally invasive".
Many doctors dissuade patients from strip surgery asking "why would you want a big scar".
I was an engineer working with Dr. Rassman in 1998 (before I became a doctor) . My work involved a concept of a robot which would use a special optical sighting system to align the hairs for an automated FUE. This work became U.S. Patent 6572625 that we licensed to the ARTAS robot. Similar technology from our U.S. Patents are used in the NeoGraft. I perform FUE in my practice with my hybrid FUE instruments, ARTAS, or even NeoGraft. My point is that I am very familiar with the FUE, ARTAS, NeoGraft, and all forms of harvesting hair follicles.
Your focus of surgery should be on RESULTS. Not how a doctor takes out the grafts. From a donor scarring perspective, you keep your hair very LONG so scarring from both surgery should not be an issue. But you may STILL SEE the FUE scars at that length on some occasion. Thousands of white dots.
Just remember a 4000 graft FUE scar is like having a collective open wound hole the size of a baseball on the back of the head. There is nothing minimally invasive about that. I also perform Scalp MicroPigmentation (SMP) and fix horrible FUE scars routinely. These is nothing "scarless" about FUE.
I have performed surgery on Dr. Rassman and his family members using the strip technique. The linear scar on Dr. Rassman is a pencil thin line you probably will have a hard time finding. The point is, a strip surgery scar is not as terrible as the Internet makes it out to be.
Both FUE and Strip surgeries has its place. Don't be caught up in marketing and doctors who try to sell you one type surgery.
The focus should be on Results.
A bad hair transplant result from FUE or Strip is like Herpes. You'll carry it with you for life (with either thousands of dots or a line).
Photo - How many grafts would I need
Web reference: http://baldingblog.com/2014/09/10/follicular-unit-extraction-fue-long-hair-corner-front-hair-line-10-days-photos/
It's important to stop further hair loss first, which is done non-surgically. As for # of grafts let's look at your donor area
In our practice, hair restoration and transplantation uses an average of 1500 to 2000 hairs in a session, which are dependent on the donor density or the number of hairs per square centimeter of strip. A certain number of hairs are also needed in follicular unit extractions or FEUs where individual hairs are removed by doing small punches on the scalp. Unfortunately for most men, progression of hair loss after transplantation is inevitable especially if they're not using any medical therapy such as finasteride to reduce dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
Being a hair restoration specialist for over 10 years and being a leader in the field of regenerative medicine in hair restoration, I have actually quantified and developed a method of preventing the progression of hair loss as well as reversing the thinning of hair using a material called extracellular matrix (ECM). Extracellular matrix is material that contains progenitor cells that are absent in balding men. It signals the dermal papilla to begin the hair growth cycle. Extracellular matrix is injected along with platelet-rich plasma (PRP)which is taken from the blood. This combination reverses thinning hair.
In cases of balding and thinning hairs, I usually recommend the injections first before surgery. After a year, I assess how much hair has been salvaged by thickening through the injection, and see if the thickened hair give adequate coverage. From there, we decide the next step. I recommend that you learn more about hair regeneration so that you can restore a lot of those thinning hairs before you move forward to surgery. I hope that was helpful, and thank you for your question.

How Many FUE Grafts Would I Need to Restore my Hairline? (PHOTO)
Based on your photos, I would highly suggest that you avoid HT procedures. You have a wonderful density and hairline and you risk producing sparse results next to your great dense hair. I would highly suggest waiting. I have seen too many who have come to see me to repair overly optimistic attempts at improving hairlines that need nothing. Old saying "don't fix what isn't broken."

The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Spice up a simple salt shaker by wrapping it with Kreinik Facets—a bead-like yarn that gives a metallic, nubby texture that's somewhere between retro-trendy and contemporary kitsch and just plain fun. We picked green, but choose from any Facet color to match your décor.
- Simple glass salt shaker (and/or pepper shaker)
- Red liner, double-sided heavy duty Treasure Tape™ 1"
- Kreinik Facets™, one skein, in a color to match your décor
- Make sure the glass is clean and dry.
- Attach tape to the sides of your shaker, either by cutting pieces to fit or wrapping from the roll of tape.
- Peel off the red liner to expose the sticky tape.
- At the bottom of the shaker, secure Facets by placing on the tape, pressing down, and holding the end as you get started.
- Wrap Facets around the shaker, placing strands close together, until your design is completed.
Note: We don't recommend that you wash your new shaker in the dishwasher after it's been decorated.

New Republican Bill Would Force Obama to Prioritize Christian Refugees From Syria Over Muslims
Obama's plan to have ten thousand Syrian refugees settle in the United States has been controversial, considering that it's mostly Muslims coming, even though Christians are victims of a genocide in the Middle East. Now, a new bill will force the Obama administration to put these Christians first.
Hours after Sec. of State John Kerry declared that the Islamic State is committing genocide against Christians and other religious minorities in Iraq and Syria, Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., introduced a bill to prioritize Christian and religious minorities in the United States' Syrian refugee resettlement program.
The Religious Persecution Relief Act, which was introduced by Cotton Thursday, is legislation that would require the U.S. government to designate 10,000 refugee resettlement slots every year for the next five years for Syrian religious minorities.
Additionally, the bill will fast-track the U.S.'s review process for religious minorities who do not register with the United Nations because of fear of persecution inside of refugee camps. This will allow for those persecuted individuals to circumvent the U.N. process by allowing them to apply for resettlement directly at U.S.-funded refugee support centers in northern Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.
Considering how Christians are being persecuted, this really should have been what happened from the beginning. But then, Obama never cared much about Christians, did he?

Make-up days of less use at end of calendar
This school year, the final one before calamity days may be obsolete, districts in Ohio may be getting more of them.
Gov. John Kasich urged state legislators Monday to add more calamity days this year due to the unusually severe winter weather. Later that day, two lawmakers proposed letting schools take four foul-weather days off this year in addition to the five now allowed.
Next school year, so-called "snow days" might not be needed. Districts will be allowed to switch to an hour-based schedule, according to the Ohio Department of Education. Schools would be able to schedule hours beyond the minimum number into their calendars.
Thus, hours missed above the minimum would not have to be made up, unless a school closes enough to fall below the required number of hours. Those hours could be made up by extending or adding school days.
But what about the current school year? We think extra days added to the end of a district's calendar would be of limited use. That is due to previous state educational policy.
Ohio Achievement?Assessments are set for April 24 through May 9. This means, in a very real sense, student objectives should have been reached before the tests are administered.
Yes, instructors still could teach – and students still could learn – into June. Any work beyond mid-May largely would amount to preparation for next year – which is to bring a revised, computer-based method of assessing students' knowledge.
Unless the missed school days can be made up before late April, districts should have extra calamity days at their disposal.

A follow-up study of children hospitalised with community-acquired pneumonia
- 1School of Clinical Medical Sciences (Child Health), University of Newcastle upon Tyne, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
- 2Freeman Hospital, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
- Dr D Spencer, Freeman Hospital, Newcastle Upon Tyne NE7 7DN, UK; david.spencer2{at}nuth.nhs.uk
- Accepted 6 March 2008
- Published Online First 1 April 2008
Objective: To investigate the outcome for children hospitalised with radiologically confirmed community-acquired pneumonia (CAP)
Design: Controlled follow-up study.
Setting: Community based in Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside and Northumberland schools.
Patients: 103 cases of radiologically confirmed CAP a median of 5.6 years (range 4.4–7.4) after admission to Newcastle General Hospital, matched for sex and school class to a mean of two controls (n = 248).
Interventions: A respiratory questionnaire, clinical examination and spirometry measurements.
Main outcome measures: Multiple regression was used to describe associations between explanatory variables, including CAP, and outcome variables: forced expiratory volume in 1 s percent predicted (FEV1 %), forced vital capacity percent predicted (FVC %), persistent cough, doctor diagnosis of asthma and abnormal chest shape.
Results: Cases were 2.9 times more likely (95% CI 1.45 to 5.71, p = 0.020) than controls to have persistent cough and 5.5 times more likely to have an abnormal chest shape (95% CI 1.65 to 18.28, p = 0.005). Cases of an atopic parent had a 7.0% deficit in FEV1 % predicted (95% CI −10.5 to −3.2, p<0.001) and a 4.4% deficit in FVC % predicted (95% CI −8.0 to −0.78, p = 0.017), but were not at increased risk of subsequent asthma. Cases of a non-atopic parent were at increased risk of subsequent asthma (OR 4.8, 95% CI 1.43 to 16.34, p = 0.011) but not of deficit in lung function.
Conclusions: CAP requiring admission to hospital is associated with deficits in lung function and persistent respiratory symptoms. This has implications for follow-up for which recommendations are currently lacking. Parental atopy may be a determinant of outcome.
Funding: Sir Halley Stewart Trust, the Children's Research Fund, Wyeth Pharmaceuticals.
Competing interests: KME conducted the community-acquired pneumonia study supported by a grant received by DS from Wyeth Pharmaceuticals. Wyeth manufacture a pneumococcal vaccine. The study was not biased as the result of financial support from Wyeth. DH has no declared conflict of interest. LP does not have any financial relationship with a commercial entity that has an interest in the subject of this paper.
Ethics approval: Ethics approval was given by the Newcastle and North Tyneside joint local research ethics committee and the Northumberland local research ethics committee.

New Exhibit at Laguna Beach Gallery Celebrates Bosnian War Survivors
Endi Poskovic
La Jolla's weather--the mild, sunshine-filled air--reminds resident Sejla Holland of her hometown Mostar, located in southern Bosnia. It's why she made the cross-country move from Boston to San Diego two years after fleeing the bloodiest fighting in Europe since World War 2.
The 1992-1995 civil war, which ensued after Bosnia and several republics of the former Yugoslavia declared independence, involved ethnic cleansing, indiscriminate sniper attacks and mortar shelling, concentration camps and a siege on the capital Sarajevo. The conflict created half a million refugees in the United States, including Holland, who refused to leave Bosnia for two years. She eventually moved to New York in 1994 with the clothes on her back and a tabula rasa.
"After the war, there were so many stories that didn't paint a beautiful picture," she says. "I had this sense of pride and hope that our creativity wasn't destroyed and even became more powerful after something so traumatic."
Towards that end, Holland wanted to highlight the perseverance and creativity of the war's survivors in a new exhibit titled, "Bosnian Born: 20 Years Later" at the GreenCube Gallery in Laguna Beach.

She showcases the works of 27 Bosnian artists - many of whom were refugees from the war. The exhibit features photography, paintings, fashion lines, jewelry, and even furniture.
A documentary titled "Back to Bosnia" also plays in the exhibit. Filmmaker Sabina Vajraca explores the meaning of home when she visits Bosnia for the first time in 12 years since she escaped the violence at the age of 13. It's a familiar story for refugees.
"It's hard because the notion of home got shattered," says Vajraca. "You don't have this childhood home. You don't have something that you can always go back to. The country, as we knew it, went out with us."
"We survived, and had a jolly good time doing it," she recalls. "You just learn to take it as it comes and move on. I want people to look at Bosnians as survivors who can get through anything."
The proceeds from the exhibit sales will go to Bosana Foundation, a charity organization which seeks to secure funding for economically disadvantaged Bosnian children.
"Bosnian Born: 20 Years Later" runs until September 1, 2012 at Green Cube Gallery, 264 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach.

Trouble at Sea: Free-Agent Doctors
See Corrections & Amplifications item below.
In October 2005, during her 37th wedding anniversary cruise aboard Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. RCL -1.03 % 's Legend of the Seas, Janice Sullivan slipped and hit her head on a buffet table, briefly knocking her unconscious.
The ship doctor gave the 60-year-old Cape Coral, Fla., retiree an over-the-counter pain reliever, but didn't scan or X-ray her head despite continuing pain over the next several days, according to Mrs. Sullivan. After she got home, Mrs. Sullivan went to an emergency room, where a neurologist found a blood clot. Concerned it could cause a stroke, he performed invasive brain surgery.
But Mrs. Sullivan had a surprise in store when she sued the cruise line and the ship doctor: Most ship doctors, despite typically wearing a crew uniform, are classified as independent contractors. And cruise companies contend they are no more liable for the doctors' competence than a landlord who rents office space to a physician on land.
That's also a likely surprise to many of the millions of cruise passengers who will board ships during the coming peak cool-weather season in the Caribbean. In the eyes of many, the ship doctor is an integral part of the crew, like actor Bernie Kopell's amorous Dr. Adam "Doc" Bricker on the long-running television show "The Love Boat."
In her suit, Mrs. Sullivan contended she was injured as a result of negligence on the part of the cruise line and the physician who treated her. The company declined to comment on the case. Royal Caribbean -- like most cruise lines -- says it can't be held liable in court since the doctor is not its employee. The Wall Street Journal was unable to locate the doctor, who Mrs. Sullivan's lawyer says is Swedish-born. Royal Caribbean wouldn't provide contact information for the physician or attorneys representing him.
Mrs. Sullivan's suit was one of at least 40 medical-malpractice cases filed over the past decade against Florida cruise companies by passengers alleging that they were hurt as a result of poor medical care at sea, or that ship doctors made other injuries suffered on the ship worse, according to maritime lawyers in South Florida.
Nearly all of those lawsuits have been dismissed or floundered in the courts because of a little-understood aspect of U.S. law. Under legal rulings going back to a landmark case in 1823, the owners of ships are considered responsible for the health care provided to members of their crew, but not for medical services provided to passengers.
Sometimes the quality of services has been questioned. In the 1990s, the American Medical Association raised concerns about onboard medical treatment and two Florida doctors issued a study of ship physicians. The study found that half of doctors surveyed weren't certified in trauma life support and that ships lacked crucial equipment, such as X-ray machines and external pacemakers -- machines that help restore the heart's natural rhythm. Cruise companies say they have improved the quality of care since then.
Cruise companies say it would be unfair to hold them responsible for treatment provided by the medical professionals because they don't oversee a doctor or nurse's medical training and certification. Some of the companies say they include a warning clause to that effect on passengers' tickets.
Earlier this month, the U.S. Supreme Court bolstered that position further, declining to hear an appeal in a medical injury lawsuit that had been winding through Florida and federal courts for nearly a decade. In that case, a then 14-year-old girl's abdominal pains were misdiagnosed as the flu during a trip on Carnival Corp.'s CCL 0.49 % Carnival Cruise Lines' Ecstasy in 1997. Doctors at an emergency room later found that Elizabeth Carlisle's appendix ruptured. The injury rendered her sterile.
In a lawsuit, the Carlisle family argued that the physician was part of the ship's staff, making the cruise line responsible. In court, Carnival said the physician wasn't an employee and it bore no responsibility. The Italian doctor was initially named as a defendant but later dropped because attorneys said they couldn't locate him. He also couldn't be reached for comment by the Journal, or a private investigator hired by the family. Carnival declined to comment.
In 2003, a Florida court of appeals sided with the family, saying Carnival owed passengers "reasonable care." In February, the Florida Supreme Court reversed that ruling, affirming that doctors are independent contractors and that cruise lines are not "vicariously liable ... for the negligence of the shipboard physician." The U.S. Supreme Court's refusal to hear an appeal upheld the ruling in favor of Carnival. The Carlisles say they intend to continue pursuing other aspects of the case.
Yesterday, lawyers for Mrs. Sullivan said they were dropping the physician from her case based on the U.S. Supreme Court results in the Carlisle case. The case against Royal Caribbean is still pending.
Locating ship physicians in the aftermath of an incident is a common problem for passengers who believe they've been injured onboard. Foreign doctors often return to their home countries, and malpractice cases involving treatment outside the boundaries of the U.S. generally must be filed in the courts of the physician's country of origin -- which is complex and expensive.
"It leaves the passenger who goes on a cruise and gets bad medical care with virtually no remedy," says Jason R. Margulies, one of the Carlisles' lawyers. He says his firm has dropped the doctors in more than a dozen malpractice cases when they couldn't locate them.
Cruise-industry officials say concerns about onboard health care are overblown and that doctors provide excellent care to hundreds of thousands of passengers each season. Instances in which patients are unhappy are extremely rare, the companies say. "All Royal Caribbean Cruises physicians and nurses are committed to providing exceptional diagnostic and urgent medical care to guests and crew on its vessels," says Raul Duany, a spokesman for the company.
A Carnival Cruise Lines spokeswoman said that among 26 million passengers on its ships over the past 10 years, "the incidences of medical malpractice have been so limited as to be statistically insignificant."
International regulations don't spell out specific guidelines on ship medical care, according to the International Maritime Organization. CLIA says about 80% of cruise companies -- including all of the major U.S.-based lines -- have adopted tougher voluntary guidelines endorsed by the industry. Those recommendations say doctors should be U.S. board-certified or have at least three years of experience. Most are trained in emergency medicine, according to the companies.
Most ships have at least one doctor and one nurse aboard. Vessels with more than 2,000 passengers usually have more, CLIA says. Upgraded telecommunications also now make it easy for onboard doctors to reach specialists on land in an emergency. The Queen Mary 2, part of Carnival's Cunard Line, has 14 hospital beds, four of which have cardiac monitoring abilities, and a large laboratory for blood work. Royal Caribbean has 15 ships with helicopter landing pads for emergency evacuations.
Still, pay for ship doctors is low -- $10,000 a month, compared with nearly $170,000 annually for a starting U.S.-based internist, according to Vanter Cruise Health Services, who works with Walt Disney Co. DIS 0.80 % 's Disney Cruise Lines.
Gary Goodwillie, a retired railroad sales manager from Detroit, wished he'd never boarded Navigator, a Carlson Cos.' Radisson Seven Seas Cruises ship, in 2003. During three weeks at sea, the cruise doctor repeatedly told him persistent pain in his chest and left arm was bad indigestion, according to documents filed in a suit by Mr. Goodwillie.
Two days before the upscale cruise ended, Mr. Goodwillie suffered a heart attack. After attempting to resuscitate him, the doctor pronounced the 76-year-old dead, according to Mr. Goodwillie's domestic partner, George Palmer. Three vacationing cardiologists rushed to the scene after the ship's captain made an emergency announcement and helped the doctor revive Mr. Goodwillie with a defibrillator.
Mr. Goodwillie's malpractice lawsuit against the cruise company, now known as Regent Seven Seas, was dismissed in August, and he was ordered to pay $50,000 to cover the company's legal fees. A company spokesman said the Goodwillie case "had no merit" and declined to comment further. Regent also wouldn't provide contact information for the physician or his attorneys. The Journal was unable to locate him in his home country of Poland.
"I've been on a dozen cruises in my lifetime, but I haven't gotten on any since the heart attack," says Mr. Goodwillie.
Corrections & Amplifications
An earlier version of this article contained an incorrect name for one of the ships owned by Carlson Cos.' Radisson Seven Seas Cruises. The correct ship name is "Navigator," not "Navigator of the Seas."
