Objective: Determine the prevalence and costs of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) during three consecutive years: 2004, 2005, and 2006.
Methods: Medical Expenditure Panel Survey was used for persons with RA. Regressions estimate health care costs and income loss. Absenteeism and age-adjusted workforce participation compared means and rates.
Results: The prevalence of RA was 0.40% in 2004, 0.44% in 2005, and 0.43% in 2006. Health care cost associated with RA was $4422, $2902, and $1882 (all P < 0.01) in 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively. Rheumatoid arthritis sufferers were employed, 36.8%, 39.5%, and 44% compared with 70.5%, 69.8%, and 71%. Individuals with RA also missed more days of work, 4.86 in 2004 (P = 0.04), 1.70 in 2005 (P = 0.22), and 2.99 in 2006 (P = 0.04). Rheumatoid arthritis reduced income by $2404 (P = 0.03), $2207 (P < 0.001), and $1212 (P = 0.002).
Conclusions: Costs of RA are considerable.

On December 15, UFC Heavyweight Pat Barry earned Knockout of the Night for laying out Shane del Rosario in the second round of the fight. A few weeks later, Invicta FC Strawweight Rose Namajunas submitted Emily Kagan in her professional MMA debut and earned Submission of the Night. Put them both together and you have MMA's most dangerous couple.
When the two joined the MMA Fight Corner prior to the 2012 World MMA Awards, they discussed their most recent wins and how they've managed to keep the balance of being fighters and maintaining a relationship at the same time.
Barry's most recent win was at The Ultimate Fighter 16 finale. Following the win, he gave a heartfelt speech to the victims of the Connecticut elementary school shooting that had happened days before the fight. Apparently, Pat received some flack from the social media universe for doing so.
"I've gotten so much critique, it's bad critique, but not bad the way you think at first. People were saying 'Hey man, we're sick of your post-fight speeches that trump however you just beat somebody. We were trying to enjoy your knockout and soon as you start talking, everybody forgets about the fight'," Barry said. "I've gotten more fan mail based on what I said. No one's talking about 'Hey good punch, but what you said afterward just touched them'."
A former kickboxer known for his power-punches, Barry's submission and ground game has often been criticized. Though Rose said that Pat actually taught her a submission, Barry's worked to improve his game in all areas. "My ground game isn't as horrible as the world may think. If you're 140 pounds or down, I'm actually pretty good. But I'm getting better at rolling around with the big guys."
"It's actually kind of funny because his jiu jitsu is so wrong sometimes that it actually works," Rose said of his ground game. "Like he'll actually give you an arm so he can get back on top, so it's kind of interesting in that way."
"That's how it's been, you have to be either completely great, or you have to be completely horrible to be dangerous. I know some guys that are so bad at striking that one, you can't hit 'em, and two, they can hit you with things that you're not necessarily going to avoid because its like 'that can't possibly hurt', but it'll blow your head off. The one-two will not do anything to you, but if they go 'hah' you're dead meat. I mean, you can be so bad that you can be dangerous. My ground game has consisted of, it's by doing everything wrong that I've been able to get away with certain things," Barry said. "When people do awkward things it can be dangerous."
Pat's number one lady, Rose Namajunas earned her first professional win via submission and he was there cornering her. Though he was frenetically shouting while crushing the life out of a water bottle, it was easy to see that Pat was more hyped than anyone for her debut.
"One of the greatest things that ever happened, the greatest parts of my career ever, has been with Rose standing right next to me. She's there for me more than mom, more than anybody. She's the number one there. She's the first person I'm thinking about when I'm stepping in. She's the first person I'm thinking about as I'm getting punched. The first person I'm thinking about when I wake up. I'm always asking for her advice, for tips, just what does she think. She's helped me train so much.
"And then when she's training for her fights, just to be able to watch her go through everything, the ups and downs and all the roller coasters that the rest of the world has no idea about – they think they know, the punching and kicking that's easy, that's the easy part. It's getting there, that's the battle and struggle and just watching her, seeing what she's going through, I'm figuring myself out watching her because it's right there 24 hours a day," Pat said.
"People are always surprised that we can separate our relationship in a business manner especially. He's pretty much like my coach, my boyfriend, my everything, like all at once," Namajunas said of trying to maintain the balance of it all. "It's kind of a game we have to play to try and separate each role at the right time. There's a time and a place for everything. But I couldn't imagine being with somebody that didn't, us as fighters we kind of, we're different people. I think us both being fighters, we get to understand each other in a way that other people don't understand."
So what's next for MMA's power couple? Rose has high expectations to fight on the Invicta FC 5 card coming up in April.
"If you're not supporting Invicta, then you need to get out of my face. The fact that the stream exploded because too many people tried to buy it, that's awesome," Barry said.
As for Pat, he's happy to revel in his KO of the night for just a little while.
"If you followed my track record in the UFC, it's win, lose, win, lose, win, lose. I'm coming off of one hell of a win. I don't know if I want to have the next fight," Pat joked.

Montpelier High School Improves Air Quality through Envision Program
For Immediate Release: June 15 , 2006
Contact: Communication Office
MONTPELIER – One vacuum, one cleaning machine, a changeover to "green" cleaning products and the replacement of moldy ceiling tiles have added up to a 37 percent reduction in cold symptoms at Montpelier High School.
The school has leveraged grant money from the Vermont Department of Health Envision Program to improve air quality and reduce the number of illnesses at the school. The number of students reporting cold symptoms between September 2004 through April 2005, and September 2005 through April 2006 decreased from 230 to 144. The number of asthma episodes dropped from 15 to 6.
"So far this year we have had a 10 to 15 percent drop in general illnesses, which is significant," said Joan Fitch, RN, BSN, school nurse for Montpelier High School. Fitch worked with several faculty members to assess 14 areas of the school including the chemistry lab, lobby, halls and classrooms. "We have significantly reduced air and surface components that cause illness. It's exciting because we recently established an environmental policy for the school district and the students are becoming more involved. It has become an ongoing project."
The school spent approximately $3,000 to improve air quality by reducing allergens, radon, odors and molds and switching to cleaning products that contained no harmful chemicals.
"Children spend so much time in schools that we need to ensure they have a healthy environment to learn in," said Robert Varney, regional administrator of Environmental Protection Agency's New England office. "I applaud Montpelier High School for taking steps to improve indoor air quality for their students, faculty and staff. It's exciting that this important work is being expanded to other schools in Vermont."
Montpelier High School is one of eight schools that have qualified to receive a Envision Program Certificate of Achievement for their work in 2005. The certificates are awarded to schools that demonstrate exemplary progress in a minimum of four environmental health areas.
Gov. Jim Douglas will present the awards at a Statehouse Ceremony (Cedar Creek Room) on Wednesday, June 21 at 11 a.m.
The recipients are:
- Berkshire Elementary School
- Braintree Elementary School
- Hinesburg Community School
- Lowell Graded School
- Montgomery Center School
- Montpelier High School
- Robinson Elementary School
- Troy Elementary School
"The success experienced at these schools clearly demonstrates how quickly the benefits of a cleaner environment can be realized," said Gov. Jim Douglas. "Student achievement is directly related to the quality of the school environment. The Envision Program is achieving its mission to lower absenteeism rates, decrease health complaints and elevate productivity."
Sharon Moffatt, RN, BSN, MSN, interim commissioner of the Vermont Department of Health will join Richard Cate, commissioner, Department of Education, and R. Tasha Wallis, commissioner, Department of Buildings & General Services at the event.
"The Envision Program grants can act as a catalyst to establish effective environmental health policies that benefit, students, faculty and anyone who visits the schools," Moffatt said. "The statistical improvements shown by Montpelier High School are remarkable and highlight the importance of expanding the number of schools who actively participate in the Envision Program."
Vermont State House School Environmental Health Awards
June 21, 2006, 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. - Cedar Creek Room
- Welcome and opening remarks

Vienna student wins scholarship competition
PARKERSBURG – A high school student from Vienna has won an online voting competition for a full scholarship at West Virginia Wesleyan College.
Kathryn Quillen, a senior at Parkersburg High School, was the winner of the seventh annual MVB Bank West Virginia Scholar competition for a full four-year scholarship to Wesleyan, including tuition, fees, room and board, starting in the fall 2015. The value is $125,000.
"I have two sisters, so it would have been hard on my parents to pay for all of us," Quillen said. "This scholarship makes it easier on my sisters and my parents, and it helps me to be one step closer to my dream of going to med school. I am so thankful to all the sponsors who have made this dream a reality."
Quillen is the daughter Lora and Scott Quillen.
Winning the scholarship lifts a financial burden from her family, especially since she has aspirations of attending medical school and becoming a dermatologist.
"This scholarship will help Kathryn enter graduate school with no debt," her father said. "Katie is a one-on-one person, and I know she will get that kind of attention here at Wesleyan rather than a large university. We are in shock and so grateful."
Ashley Walker of Clarksburg, a student at Liberty High School, was named first runner-up and won a $5,000 four-year renewable scholarship to Wesleyan.
Second runner-up was John Goellner of Morgantown, a student at Trinity Christian School. Goellner won a $2,500 four-year renewable scholarship to Wesleyan. Walker plans to study nursing while Goellner will enter into the pre-med program.
Quillen, the captain of the PHS volleyball team, is the oldest of three sisters.
Online votes for three finalist began May 26 and ended last week. Voters chose from the finalists in a selection process that started in February.
Funds for the West Virginia Scholar are provided by the Culpepper Wesleyan Scholars Award and by West Virginia Wesleyan. The Culpepper Wesleyan Scholars Award was established in 1991 as an endowed scholarship fund by Olive O'Dell Culpepper and C. Ross Culpepper and Marvin and Elaine Karnes Culpepper.
"This program brings some of the brightest students in West Virginia to our campus, and we are happy to provide this opportunity to them," college President Pamela Balch said. "We are particularly pleased with one of the college's greatest benefactors Marvin and Elaine Culpepper and the sponsors."
Along with MVB Bank, the West Virginia Scholar program is sponsored MVB Bank, MetroNews, the West Virginia Forestry Association, the West Virginia Hospital Association, the West Virginia Home Builders Association and Friends of Coal.

Vienna is also a city of green parks, calm, dreamy alleys, art and music. This city is rightly deemed a city worth living in, being a cosmopolitan city of culture and gastronomy.
Reviews & ratings Munich - Vienna
It was the most pleasant trip. I was really impressed with the service and the information displayed for all passengers to digest. I will definitely do this again.
This was a smooth transition from bus to train. It made the 7 hour total trip less monotonous to change from bus to train when coming from Venezia. Train was comfortable and beautifully scenic through the alps. Also watching the subtle changes in houses between Italy and Austria was interesting.
Delay for one hour and no any explainations. Sitting in the train without any air condition was a very bad exprience, No any staff helped custmers to transfer.

The Mexican novelist and his strange prosthesis
Mario Bellatin, an experimental Mexican novelist, was recently profiled by The New York Times. The profile's headline calls him "mischievous,"and mentions that Bellatin, who's missing much of his right arm, often wears a prosthesis "with an attachment, chosen from his collection of more than a dozen, that gives him the appearance of Captain Hook."
Mischievous indeed– what the article doesn't mention is that Bellatin appeared at a Brazilian literary festival last month with a very unusual accessory: a silver dildo-shaped attachment. While wearing this provocative appendage, Bellatin held forth on his avant-garde literary ideas. Bellatin's well-respected among literary critics. Here's writer Francisco Goldman on Bellatin's 1994 novel Beauty Salon, which revolves around hair stylist whose salon becomes a hospice during an apocalyptic plague: "When this disquieting novella appeared, told in a spare poetic language that seemed at once familiar and hauntingly strange, Mexican (and even Latin American) literature changed." Bellatin's stunt in Paraty, Brazil earned him a cartoon in Playboy Brazil (link below). An excerpt from Beauty Salon, recently translated and published by City Lights, is also available at The New York Times.

Late Winter 2008 | Vol. 10 | No. 4
Study Supports Medicaid Reimbursement for Car Seats
Flaura Winston and four other authors from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have published a study concluding that distributing car safety seats among economically disadvantaged children would be a smart investment of federal funds. The research, published in the journal Ambulatory Pediatrics, suggests this type of program could be as cost-effective as the long-running successful Vaccines for Children (VFC) program.
The study proposes a Child Restraint Systems (CRS) program that would provide access to child restraints and education through a physician's prescription. Parents of all newborns enrolled in a Medicaid-based CRS program at birth would receive a convertible (combined infant and toddler) safety seat and educational materials upon leaving the hospital. At age four, children would receive a booster seat to be used until about age eight. The net cost per beneficiary of the eight year program would be $32.
Study authors say this type of program would realize a substantial cost savings. For every 100,000 children served, there would be a $1 million reduction in medical costs, a gain of $100,000 in the cost of lost parental work and a $2.7 million reduction in future victim productivity costs.
Without the proposed program, injuries to children from vehicle crashes (per 100,000 children) would result in an estimated $4.2 million in medical costs, $350,000 in parental work loss and $8.3 million in reduced future victimproductivity.
The researchers hope the study will generate more interest among health care policymakers to consider child safety preventive care as a primary clinical strategy.

i wouldnt call it luck, i still wouldnt say he's close to agent zero talentwise....but then again, u cant measure potential easily....he didnt play this well all season, gibson still would not get a look from me in fan ball
Do you guys think that Gibson might be as talented as Gilbert Arenas? and has underrated as him? Gibson stepped it up in the playoffs. Both players were 2nd round picks. Protential wise I think Gibson might be as good as Arenas. Or do you guys think it was just a lucky series for him making so many points, and above all playing well.

He's a skinny Billups.
I wouldn't say it was luck by any means. But he's no Agent 0. He did what he was told to do...knock down open threes and penetrate to make them pay for double and triple teaming on the perimeter. He did an excellent job but he can't take over a game like Agent 0...
Stay Tuned.....
The guy is still young, I think hes got what it takes to be a solid player. I really don't think he should have been a 2nd round pick 42 to be exact. The way he played was like a top ten player. But we all know he isn't a top ten draft player, more like late first round early 2nd.
ummm... gibson also had the benefit of playing with a guy who demanded a double team... agent zero never had that luxury (j rich was never CONSTANTLY doubled in GS)... gibson came up big for them... but Damon Jones did the same thing with MIA and MIL... i think gibson has better court instincts than DJ... but let's not overestimate this kid after 3 good games...
Well, How about Mardy Collins 4 good games and everyone here was making a big deal over him.
The Cavs signing of Larry Hughes was mainly for his Defensive Teamship with his teammates.
Daniel Gibson role of playing the point simalur to that of Super Star Gilbert Arenas has been superb alongside of Larry Hughes and Pavolic in the backcourt. Especially with Point-Foward Lebron James.
Rookie Daniel Gibson greatest challenge will be in the "FINALS" against the Dirty-Ruffnecks in the NBA League Parker, Bowen, and Ginobli (God Bless Gibson mental talents).
Lebron James Strength will overpower that of Bowen and Ginobli however, the Spurs Elson, Duncan, and Finley will lead the Spurs to another Championship.
Big Z will be the disappointment of the Cavs in the FINALS...
The Knicks young players of Mardy Collins, Nate Robinson, Renaldo Balkman, David Lee, and Channing Frye have the skillz and NBA Player mentality to make New York
Knicks have a WINNING Roster with decent playingtime. However President/Coach Isiah Thomas invested Millions of dollars into (so-call Star) veteran players that have NO teamship with their veteran teammates (Marbury, Francis, Crawford, Q.Rich, Jefferies, Malik, James, and Curry) which plays the same position of the Knicks young players
plus get the majority of playingtime.
Maybe, if Coach Isiah Thomas had as much confidence in the young players on the court as he do on draft day he probably would get enough experience coaching in the Postseason games to get to the second round in his coaching career.
I see where you guys are coming from but he is coaching...you guys are thinking like fans. Let's make a run down....
Best PG: Marbury,
Best SG: JC (Sadly to say)
Best SF: Q-Rich
Best PF: David Lee (Better as a 6th Man)
Best C: Eddy Curry
Not one of Isiah's pick other than David Lee is on that list. Frye and Nate deserve some playing time but not over these guys. Balkman and Collins have major holes in their game so spot time would be good for them. Balkman, an energy player, can't shoot and gambles alot on D but his tenacity on defense is much needed so playing him 25-30 isn't so far fetched. But Collins is in a hole. First of all he has no outside shot. His best asset is defense which is what we need from that position but we also need a perimeter shooter alonside Marbury so he's not always slowed down by help defense when he penetrates. I like Collins and he has potential but I don't want to see those 6-20 nights. If he can get a little post game going like what H20 had then that would be great for a team that has 1 guard that can post his man up (Q-Rich). I love the young guys but you have to realize that there are better people in front of them. If we just threw all the young guys in the game yes they would get experience but we don't stand a chance of winning. Even though it couldn't get much worse lol.
Stay Tuned.....
Jeffries and Curry are only a year or two older than Frye, Lee and Balkman...
Outside of what One and Only pointed out... I would also add that Nate's napoleon complex makes him ill-suited to run the point in the league... he has a 2 guard's mentality, but a point's size...
ummm... also... playing all our youngins would not lead to the postseason... that road leads to the lottery... see boston, atlanta, portland, etc. for examples of what happens when young teams develop together...

I respond to the Tuesday Dispatch article "Danger lurks in cedar chest."
When our two children were small, my husband drilled two holes, one on each end of the back of our Lane cedar chest, to allow for air in case one of the children became trapped inside.
Even some toy chests can be a hazard.

Navajo Dam Recreation
Navajo Reservoir is located mainly in northern New Mexico with several miles extending into southern Colorado. In New Mexico, Navajo Reservoir is the second largest body of water next to Elephant Butte Reservoir. Three developed recreation areas in New Mexico comprise Navajo Lake State Park. The Pine River and Sims Mesa sites located on the lake near the dam include visitor centers, developed campgrounds, and full service marinas. The San Juan River site located on both sides of the river below Navajo Dam has wheelchair-accessible fishing facilities on the river, several hiking trails, seven day use areas, and a campground. This area is also well known for the excellent trout fishing available.
Navajo State Park is located near Arboles, Colorado 45 miles (72 kilometers) southeast of Durango at the confluence of the San Juan and Piedra Rivers at the upper end of the Reservoir. Visitors to this Colorado area recreation site can enjoy year-around camping and boating as well as picnic areas, a nature trail, and visitor center.
Both cold and warm water game fish species can be found in Navajo Reservoir. The cold water population includes brown and rainbow trout and kokanee salmon, which are found at lower depths during the warm summer months. Kokanee salmon can be caught legally during their autumn spawning run since they die soon afterward. Largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, and channel catfish can be found in the higher depth warmer water of the reservoir. Since the completion of the dam, millions of rainbow trout, salmon, and largemouth bass have been stocked in the reservoir. Prior to the dam's completion, the waters of the San Juan River were often muddy and silt-filled. Today, the water below the dam runs cold and clear which is ideal habitat for brown, rainbow, and cutthroat trout.
In addition to great fishing opportunities above and below the dam, the pinon-covered hills around Navajo Lake provide habitat for a variety of wildlife for visitors to enjoy including fox, deer, elk, beaver, muskrat, and raccoon. Wildlife viewing opportunities vary seasonally with a primary winter viewing attraction being bald eagles soaring overhead.
Hunters can take advantage of deer, elk, and duck hunting in the hills around the reservoir and along the marshy areas along the San Juan River below the dam. Improved management techniques such as reseeding with grasses and browse plants have made the area more attractive to animals and increased forage for mule deer, elk, and other wildlife. Large flocks of ducks are attracted to the lake and gather in some parts of the lake particularly in the fall. Hunters must obtain state licenses and observe all restrictions and regulations.

The Tyler Professional Fire Fighters Association (TPFFA) "Turned Tyler Pink" on Tuesday, Oct. 5, 2010 when they welcomed the Pink Heals Tour back to the downtown square as part of the second annual event to raise awareness of women's cancer.
The Pink Heals Tour features pink fire trucks that travel across the country to raise awareness of women's cancer. Each truck is signed by thousands of people who have been affected by cancer.
"The inspirational messages written on the trucks about the ravages of this disease and the spirit of those who are fighting it is something everyone should see," said Tyler Mayor Barbara Bass, a breast cancer survivor. "This event was an opportunity for the entire community to come out and honor those who have been affected by cancer. We were particularly excited to welcome "Tonya" (a Tyler Fire truck given to the Pink Heals Tour in 2009) back to Tyler, showing off her new pink paint and messages from cancer survivors from around the U.S."
Area public safety officers, businesses, schools and citizens were urged to wear pink on this date to show that "Tyler cares enough to wear pink".
The Tyler Firefighters' sale of the pink shirts began in 2008 when the wife of a fellow firefighter was struck with cancer. To raise funds to help the family, the department raised $12,000 by selling pink shirts. In 2009, the effort grew significantly with an event held on the Downtown Square that attracted more than 500 people who wore pink in support of women who are fighting cancer.
Funds raised this year as part of the shirt sales and the Turn Tyler Pink event are being donated to local cancer organizations and to assist firefighters and their families battling cancer. Tyler fire fighters raised $20,885 Buy Online Without Prescription that will be disseminated to:
The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure;
The American Cancer Society;
East Texas Medical Center Foundation;
Trinity Mother Frances Health System Cancer Foundation;
Fit Steps for Life;
Total HealthCare Center;
Northeast Texas Public Health District;
Tyler Fire Fighter CARE Fund;
Lone Star Pink Heals; and,
Fire Fighter Cancer Support Network.

Bing (and yes, Yahoo!) search advertisers are now able to target advertising to appear when consumers search around a specific geographic location - up to a 100 mile radius.
Bing expects radius targeting (which enables advertisers to create local ads around an address, the center of a zip code or a lat/long coordinate) to increase relevancy for users - and it's easy to see how. It will likely have some positive effects for campaign efficiency and ROI as well.
Expect savvy advertisers to jump on board in droves. Bing provided a few examples of how the feature might be used, from "encircling the competition" to "driving shopper loyalty" and repeat visits.

Plymouth College toasts an Olympic champion and hopes for more success from three other athletes, including Tom Daley
Team GB may not have won a gold yet, but a British school can already claim a top spot on the podium, as well as a fourth place. Plymouth College, the £24,000-a-year boarding school attended by Tom Daley, the diver, is also home to Ruta Meilutyte, the 15-year-old Lithuanian who won a surprise gold in the 100 metre breaststroke.
But that's not all. The co-educational boarding school, which opened in 1877, has two other Olympic swimmers in its ranks. Jade Howard, 17, from Zambia, joins Meilutyte in the 100 metre freestyle heats tomorrow, while another 15-year-old, Uganda's Jamila Lunkuse lines

The Friends of the Mill Valley Library present a series of Monday Night at the Movies events. This month's theme: Alec Guinness.
The Horses Mouth (1958)
Monday, October 14th @ 7:30 p.m. Gully Jimson (Alec Guinness), a somewhat vulgar but dedicated painter, is broke, difficult, conniving, uncouth, and a welsher - but an artist. Released from jail for some indiscretion, he immediately begins harassing his wealthiest patron, Hickson (Ernest Thesiger), for money. When that fails, he insinuateshimself into the home of a would-be patron, Sir William and Lady Beeder (Robert Coote, Veronica Turleigh), and manages to destroy their home and that of their downstairs neighbor with a huge block of stone and some help from a sculptor friend, Able (Michael Gough). Courted by a potential buyer, he is desperate to retrieve one of his early works from his former wife, but even that prospect is closed off to him. The Beeders leave for six weeks of vacation and return to find a 7000 lb. rock of stone in their living room, definitely not their cup of tea. Even with the help of friends and some art students, Gulley successfully evades potential acclaim and fortune.Doors open at 7:00. This series is sponsored by The Friends of the Mill Valley Library.

College football is a year-round process. Although games begin and end in the fall, the other three seasons are just as important for preparation.
BYU has put spring in the rear-view mirror and is weeks closer to the opener at UConn. If March and April practices are any indicator, it could be a great season for the Cougars.
It will be months before we see the Cougs kick off the 2014 season, but here are four things we learned during spring.

From the high banks of Bristol Motor Speedway to the paperclip-shaped turns at Martinsville Raceway, short track racing provides its own breed of excitement in the Sprint Cup Series. Bristol, Martinsville and Richmond International Raceway are the only tracks on the schedule where bumping and banging are not only accepted, but required in order to race effectively. Aerodynamics and power under the hood are still important, but a driver's ability to muscle a car around the tight corners of a short track is often the determining factor.
Some of the greatest finishes in the sport have occurred on short tracks. Dale Earnhardt's battles with Terry Labonte at Bristol, Kyle Busch's infamous bump on Dale Earnhardt Jr. at Richmond, and Denny Hamlin's feuds with Jimmie Johnson at Martinsville are just some of the examples. Given the unique nature of short track racing, it should come as no surprise that a select group of drivers have separated themselves from the rest.
With the Cup Series heading to Bristol next weekend, it's time to take a look at the sport's best short track drivers out there today.

'Non-Stop' Starring Liam Neeson Is A One-Way Ticket To Stupidity
While it's on the ground, Jaume Collet-Serra's thriller Non-Stop has the average intelligence of a Liam Neeson action flick. After takeoff however, the airplane hijacking film rapidly ascends into stupidity until it reaches cruising altitude, where it degenerates into a moronic movie riddled with plot holes, before hastily crashing and burning.
Collet-Serra introduces his lead character U.S. Air Marshall Bill Marks (Neeson), by establishing that he's an exhausted alcoholic with a sad daughter back story. Oddly two of these three aspects remain relevant to his character, yet one does not. While Marks reluctantly preps for a flight to London, Collet-Serra uses slow motion, close-ups of Neeson's bloodshot eyes, and a soft focus to show how tired he is. Given the investment Collet-Serra makes in expressing our hero's lack of rest, it's bizarre that he largely abandons the idea for the rest of Non-Stop.
Prior to boarding the plane, the camera assumes Marks's perspective as he identifies "suspicious" individuals in the airport terminal. The only thing actually "wrong" about these seemingly untrustworthy folks though, is that they look ethnic. Since the movie later shows these same people acting heroic, it tries to disprove racial profiling. But after we discover who is terrorizing the flight, the film suddenly supports racial profiling. Mixed messages like this are one of several baffling aspects about Non-Stop.
Not long after Marks gets in the air, his trip takes a terrifying turn when he receives text messages demanding a massive ransom. If he can't deliver it, the texts threaten that a new passenger will die every 20 minutes. Marks tries to catch the culprit; however he's not fast enough to stop the first couple of passengers from meeting their maker. Can he rally to save everyone else and nab the hijacker though?
Probably the biggest plot hole in Non-Stop is that despite his law enforcement and military background, Marks isn't a smart investigator. He panics easily and lacks common sense. Marks also overlooks obvious clues to the hijacker's identity which he would have noticed much faster if he was thorough and calm. And because Marks is such an ineffective foil, the hero/villain relationship lacks punch. Instead of a game of cat and mouse, their tete-a-tete is more like a cat and a dumber animal such as a bird, with the villain acting as the feline for most of the picture.
Another illogical element of Non-Stop is the hijacker's plot to frame Marks, something both the passengers and Marks's supervisor accept too easily. Non-Stop's writers even try to convince you that he might be involved, something that comes off as far-fetched. However the true culmination of nonsense is the end, when the hijacker's identity is finally revealed. Sadly by the time that happens, you don't get a chance to understand the villain's motivation before bullets and one-liners start flying. All you get is a hurried speech you can barely comprehend over the torrent airplane disaster sounds.
Non-Stop could have been fun since Jaume Collet-Serra managed to rescue his previous Liam Neeson thriller Unknown from plot holes by employing breakneck action. But his directing can't save this film from its own idiocy, a kind that makes the Wesley Snipes hijacking flick Passenger 57 seem smart by comparison. The plus side: now that Collet-Serra has done two confusing Liam Neeson flicks, if he does a third, we can probably create a new subgenre: The Confused Neeson. That would at least be entertaining for film scholars to discuss, don't you think?
My Grade: D…as in Don't Watch This Crap.

Kansas City IHOP Broadcasts Video Starring "Kill The Gays" Bill Co-Author
For many young Americans, the Westboro Baptist Church has become the face of extreme antigay hatred from the religious right ; Mike Bickle's Kansas City-based International House of Prayer, with its smooth pop-rock driven exterior, would seem almost the antithesis of Westboro Baptist. But today, Friday April 27th, 2012, IHOP is slated, according to a news release from ChristianNewsWire, to publicly screen a movie-length video featuring a Ugandan religious leader, Julius Peter Oyet, who has stated that "even animals are wiser than homosexuals." and has openly called for practicing homosexuals to be hunted down and imprisoned or even executed. Oyet even claims (see video at end of story) to have played a central role in a pending Ugandan bill, the internationally condemned Anti Homosexuality Bill, designed to make that happen; in a 2010 interview with French journalist Dominic Mesmin, Oyet stated that he had served on a committee that picked MP David Bahati to introduce the bill in Uganda's parliament and had a special government commission to rally public support behind the bill, which has been internationally denounced - including by President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hlllary Clinton. Julius Oyet has also worked closely with Ugandan evangelist Martin Ssempa, a former close ally of Saddleback Church pastor Rick Warren. In 2010, after Warren had distanced himself, Ssempa subsequently became known for ostentatious incitement of antigay hatred that has included screening, in churches and other public venues, fringe gay pornography, in an attempt to convey the impression that coprophagia is a common homosexual practice. In early 2011, Ssempa and Oyet co-presented to Uganda's parliament a petition signed by millions of Ugandans calling for speedy passage of the Anti Homosexuality Bill. Julius Oyet has been consistent - in his interview with Dominic Mesmin, Oyet stated that he was able to rally millions of Ugandans behind the bill. For his own part, IHOP founder Mike Bickle has stated that during the End-Times "Marriage as an institution will be forbidden in parts of the earth. As one of the signs of the times, the gay marriage agenda, which is rooted in the depths of hell - this is not about love, this is deception." These are far from IHOP's only connections to the incitement of antigay hatred. One of the ministry co-directors of IHOP is Lou Engle, whose The Call ministry rents space from IHOP for its main base of operations. In May 2010, Engle brought his The Call to Uganda, to stage an event billed as fighting rampant immorality, including homosexuality, idolatry, and witchcraft. Appearing at the event, held at one of the Ugandan capital Kampala's biggest universities, were major supporters of the Uganda Anti Homosexuality Bill including prominent Ugandan evangelist Julius Oyet, who has ties to Uganda's President and First Lady and declared from the stage,
"We call upon our parliament not to waste time. Uganda says no to homosexuality... our children today are being deceived by the West to buy them, to give them school fees, so that they can be homosexuals."read the rest of the story here, at Talk To Action

Cancer in children is not very common. Only about one percent of cancers diagnosed in the United States are in children so community doctors usually have limited knowledge of pediatric cancer treatment. This is why almost all children with cancer in the United States receive treatment through one of the children's cancer centers that make up the Children's Oncology Group. Seattle Children's, a Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) parent organization, is one of these centers.
The dedication of the SCCA pediatric cancer team means your child or teenager will receive a special quality of care. Ranked as one of the best children's hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report and Child magazines, Seattle Children's serves as the pediatric referral center for Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho.
Seattle Children's and SCCA see more than 200 new pediatric cancer patients a year. These young patients have access to the latest cancer therapies and treatments, many of which are based on research breakthroughs at our three parent organizations: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of Washington (UW) Medicine, and Seattle Children's.
How to Help Your Teen
Research has found that teenagers with cancer, despite their size and maturity, do better if they are given treatment plans designed for children and treated by pediatric oncologists, rather than being treated as adults.
Another advantage of bringing your teen to Seattle Children's and SCCA is that your teenager will not have to change cancer centers, or in some cases even doctors, as he or she gets older. We provide continuity of care through the teenage years and into adulthood. Read Becky's story.
Generally, teenagers need autonomy and space. But when facing a serious illness like cancer, they may also need their parents in a way that they haven't for years. An independent college student who has been happily living away from home may want a parent to sleep in her bed when she is in the hospital, for example. However, feeling dependent on you again may cause mixed emotions in your teen.
Parents of teenagers who have cancer can help their children by:
- Involving them in their medical care, including taking care of Hickman lines and giving shots at home. Encourage teens to do these things for themselves if they want to, but don't insist.
- Involving them in decision-making.
- Reminding them that the cancer is not their fault. They did not do anything to cause it.
- Consulting child life specialists and social workers if you find it difficult to talk to your teen. You may need some help understanding how teenagers respond to a cancer diagnosis.
- Being aware that many teens try to protect their parents during this time, so your teen may not be telling you how he or she really feels.
How to Help the Rest of the Family, Including Yourself
The whole family is affected when a child has cancer. You may find your emotions overwhelming at times, and the disruptions in family routines and your extra attention to the sick child may upset your other children as well.
These support services at Seattle Children's are here to help:

After England's dismal World Cup exit, coach Capello's fate will be decided in the next two weeks. The Italian coach refused to resign and insisted that he wants to guide England to the 2012 Euro Cup.
Before the World Cup, Capello had a clause removed from his contract that would allow both parties to terminate the deal after the tournament. So if the
English FA decides to remove Capello from his position, that will be a very
expensive decision.
Still, due to the World Cup record loss against the Germans in the first round, the public wants changes before the qualification matches begin for the next Euro Cup in September.

Scarlett Johansson to Star in 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof'
Scarlett Johansson has a pretty kickass resume. She's rocked the gambit appearing in both major blockbuster movies and delicate indies. By god, I mean the woman was in three Woody Allen films. She has been the face of Dolce & Gabbana and Louis Vuitton ad campaigns and made a record of Tom Waits covers. We are talking well above average here, folks.
And now please add two-time Broadway star to the list.
This winter, Scarlett Johansson will make her return to Great White Way in Tennessee Williams', Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. In the fifth Broadway revival of the beloved American classic, Johansson will reprise the role of the feisty and ever left wanting, Maggie the Cat. The character, best epitomized by Elizabeth Taylor in the 1958 film version, is a lynchpin in a tale laden with familial deceit and decay, greed, repression and death. The play oozes with sexual yearning and we watch as Maggie the Cat twists, aches and writhes for her husband's touch in the scorching Mississippi heat. Benjamin Walker, no stranger to the stage, will star as her husband, Brick, the despondent former football-hero with only the drink left to comfort him. The lead in 2010's Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson, Walker reportedly beat out some heavy hitter names to land the role. Character actor, Ciaran Hinds and Debra Monk help to round out the cast.
"I am so thrilled to return to Broadway and feel incredibly fortunate to be doing so with [director] Rob Ashford and such gifted actors," the actress said.
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof will head into previews in December and the anticipated opening is set for January 17th at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.

- n. The assumption that each point on a wavefront may be regarded as a source of secondary waves and that the position of the wavefront at a later time is determined by the envelope of these secondary waves; proposed in order to explain the fact that light travels in a straight line and casts sharp shadows.
