Exalting the Lord's Kingdom, Power, and Glory

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (70 votes).
In short: brilliant!In full: My first Race the Train and it delivered everything everyone said it would - challenging course but beautiful, great organisation (but what else would you expect from Rotary?) friendly crowd esp if you're on your own, enough to keep the family entertained, excellent marshalls and drinks stations, oh, and first black toe nail emerging since the FLM. Look forward to next year!Date of review: August 22, 2005
In short: Unique event, and something for the family too!In full: This race has a mix of everything: road, fields, steep tracks, wooded, flat, and steep! There's a great carnival atmosphere, and there are fun runs, toddler trots and 10k races before the Main Event. There is some entertainment for kids, but not much (a bouncy castle and a couple of fairground-like stalls). However, the best part for the family is taking a trip one one of the two trains to see the runners. The organisation is fantastic with 8 water stations, with an assortment of liquid refreshment. Definitely one to do again, but forget any chance of a PB!Date of review: August 21, 2005
In short: Hard Cross Country with Hills, Take the Family for the Weekend to Glorious WalesIn full: You need to run 7:30 Min Miles to the turn to stand a chance of beating the train, but even if you don't it is a wonderful day out and carnival atmosphere. A must-do. If you aren't too fit you will suffer. Trail shoes a good idea as a lot of the race is sidways across sloping fields so you need loads of grip. Get properly hydrated first.Date of review: August 20, 2005
In short: A classic summer cross-country feel to this raceIn full: The best bit of racing the train is somehow it changes the atmosphere - it's runners against the train, not against each other! (Well, mostly). And crossing over the bridge on the way out just as the engine goes under it made the race for me.Date of review: January 24, 2005
In short: Nice experienceDate of review: December 16, 2004
In short: Hard work, but a good laugh, and a great way to work up a thirst!Date of review: September 26, 2004
In short: Fantastic race, well organised with a great atmosphereDate of review: September 20, 2004
In short: Fabulous fun - this is the third year on the run (hah!- no pun intended) that i''ve run the 10K and it certainly won't be the last. Date of review: September 3, 2004
In short: A challenge all runners must try at least onceDate of review: August 31, 2004
In short: Excellent race. Miles 7-10 are slightly challenging to put it mildly.Date of review: August 30, 2004

Arefeh Mansouri's fashion and costume designs have graced red carpets, runways and major Hollywood productions. Her signature store, AREFEH, is the latest addition to 150 Worth's collection of exclusive boutiques.
How would you describe your design style?
I am best know for my couture evening gowns and wedding dresses. That being said, my design style or paradigm, if you will, has been described most often as avant garde. I personally never felt that way because it tends to typecast me a bit. However, I can see how people can come to that conclusion when observing the complexity and detail that goes into some of my pieces. The more complicated and unique the better, from my point of view. Nothing gives me more delight than creating something that defies what people expect or defies their sense of what can be--in a good way of course.
Who is the AREFEH woman?
The AREFEH Woman is not wish-washy. She knows who she is and is not afraid to show it. She is not into conforming and is not afraid to stand out.
What inspires your designs?
Anything and everything. It doesn't have to be a tangible thing at all. Many artists get inspired by nature, landscape, and things they can see and touch. I get all that, and I use those elements also. But sometimes I wake up from a dream, and I instantly know that I have to transfer the image in my mind on paper before I lose it forever... and I have no clue where it comes from. At times I become inspired by a smell or a feeling. It's never any one thing. It's everything.
What kind of fabrics and textures do you gravitate toward?
Oh, I love silk. I can do anything with silk. In fact, come to think of it, I would like to be mummified in it when the time comes.
Why did you decide to open your signature store in Palm Beach and specifically, 150 WORTH?
For me Worth Avenue is the place to be for high fashion in Florida and at least one of the most important fashion locations in the country. I love the sophisticated energy there, and I am comforted by the fact that many of the biggest designers in the world are represented there.
What do you think sets Palm Beach apart from other fashion destinations?
Fashion density. You have all the best of the best squeezed into a small area that has a beauty second to none. If you don't live in Florida and you haven't been for a while you really should go and see it for yourself.
What trends are you predicting for fall?
Beaded, romantic and soft bridal gowns.
How do your three collections (ready-to-wear, evening gown and couture bridal) differ from each other?
Ready-to-wear is everyday clothing such as sportswear, things you wear and use over and over for multiple occasions. I have both an affordable and high-end ready-to-wear line. My evening gowns range from ornate, one-of-a-kind pieces for formal events to simple and chic dresses for more casual occasions. Of course, couture bridal or evening gowns are one-off pieces. They will never be duplicated. They are made with the best fabric and materials and command a higher price.
In three words, what can we expect from AREFEH?
Total world domination.
You became successful in the industry at an early age. Do you have any advice for aspiring fashion designers?
Be prepared for the word no.
What are some of your current must-have items?
Black pencil skirt, little black dress and a black blazer. With these three items you can dress up or dress down based on the occasion, and it's always fashionable and classy.

This non-sticky lip gloss imparts a noticeable amount of color, complete with micronized shimmer particles. The silky texture immediately smoothes lips, the formula contains antioxidants for additional benefits, and it comes in fairly stable packaging to keep those ingredients effective during use.
There are several attractive pink, coral, and nude shades, but the orange-beige colors are not recommended because they tend to make lips look washed out and drab. Those looking for a colorless gloss will appreciate the See Thru shade!
Note: The small amount of fragrance (listed as "flavor") isn't cause for concern in terms of being irritating.

Comments about Palladio Beauty Herbal Lip Gloss:
I am surprised at why this gloss only recieved 3 stars-it is comfortable on the lips and smells good. It does not have a headache inducing scent. They have a fair selection of colours too! It is also moisturising and does not highlight dryness on the lips. Even though the packaging isnt overly fancy I actually like the simplicity of it. It is also incredibly cheap! Unbelievably cheap

Strengths: Impressive powder and liquid foundation options; Rice Paper; Herbal Lip Gloss; Eyeshadow Primer; Baked Blush; Herbal Tinted Lip Balm; company provides complete ingredient lists on their website.
Weaknesses: Poorly made eyeliners, including Liquid Eyeliner and Eye Ink Felt Tip Liquid Eye Liner; highly fragranced eyeshadow quad; potentially irritating lip stain; poorly formulated skin-care products.
Palladio started as a small, Florida-based brand, and has been slowly carving out its niche at well-known beauty supply stores in North America and abroad through a growing network of resellers. The brand has attracted consumer interest because it's affordable and offers high-quality products.
One of the other draws is their brand tagline: "herbal & vitamin enriched cosmetics." Surprisingly, many Palladio products lack the ingredients to back up their herbal claim, and several of the products that do contain plants and vitamins have packaging that won't keep them stable during use, something that's true for lots of makeups that boast of antioxidant content. Still, this brand does have several products with impressive amounts of antioxidants, including a liquid foundation, eyeshadow primer, and lip gloss in decent packaging that will help keep the ingredients stable.
While the enticing herbal/vitamin claim isn't justified by all their products, many Palladio makeup products are worth checking out, and the prices are great, but stay away from the skin-care products because they are problematic, for several reasons, as you will see in our reviews. The most impressive products are the foundations and the tinted Rice Paper. The only makeup missteps are the liquid eyeliners, whose performance pales in comparison to comparably priced drugstore options.
In the United States, United Kingdom, and Mexico, Palladio is widely available at Sally Beauty. Palladio products also are available abroad through reseller websites, which are listed in the FAQ section of Palladio's U.S. website.

Embed the Person Finder Tool on Your WebsiteAbout the Author: Katie Dowd serves as New Media Director at the U.S. Department of State.
Today, Secretary Clinton announced the launch of a new tool on state.gov/haitiquake, the "Person Finder," to allow people to find and share information on missing persons in Haiti. In the aftermath of the devastating earthquake on January 12, one recurring theme was the need for people to find and report on their loved ones. As a result, a group of engineers from the private, public and NGO sectors came together to build the "Person Finder."
The Person Finder is a tool to help individuals find their loved ones. If you are looking for someone, or have information about someone in Haiti, please visit the Person Finder on state.gov/haitiquake. This tool is available in Creole, French and English, and can be embedded on any website. In addition, this tool will make the data accessible to NGOs, donor governments and civilians in an easily manageable and open format. Please note, all the data you enter will be available to the public and viewable and usable by anyone.
This is one of the many efforts the tech community is working on to help provide relief, recovery and assistance to Haiti. Other great efforts underway include HatianQuake.com and Haiti.ushahidi.com.
Anyone wishing to donate or provide assistance in Haiti following the devastating earthquake that struck near Port au Prince on Jan 12, 2010, is asked to contact the Center for International Disaster Information.
For those interested in helping immediately, simply text "HAITI" to "90999" and a donation of $10 will be given automatically to the Red Cross to help with relief efforts, charged to your cell phone bill. So far, one million people have donated $10 million in the largest mobile donation campaign to date.

SOS-Urgent! 1-16-10, US Citizens alive, trapped and not yet reached.
I have a case I am working on in Haiti. A girl Susan in Jacmel, Haiti is trapped their with the body of US Citizen Flow M. The US body she needs to bring home to Flo's parents who have been contact about the death or their beautiful son. She dug the body out herself after 30 hours. There are more trapped in the hotel and still alive. I need to get word on the ground to the Virginia task force to dig out the road to Jacmel or air lift help to them asap. I know this is dire everywhere, but these are US citizen no one knows about. Here are the details, I have gotten word to the State Department and the UN World Food Programe people but I need Help!!! Most important thing:
Victims need to be rescued. Do not know how many.
You will find Susan at the Peace of Mind hotel during daylight hours. After that time, she will be at Flo's apartment not far from the hotel in Meyer.
Flo's Mother has been in contact with Pastor L. who is headed to Haiti.
Below is the information she sent to him.
Flora R. M.
died in collapse of PEACE OF MIND HOTEL
Flo was director of the FOSAJ (FONDATION STE-ANNE DE JACMEL). Her friend
Susan M F.
had been teaching a workshop in woodworking at FOSAJ. She survived the quake but has been severely traumatized and has been searching for Flo's body in the rubble of the collapsed hotel ever since the quake.
Susan goes by Sue F. with her friends. So it would be best to ask for SUE F.
The Haitians knew & loved Flo and will be easy to ask most people information re: Flo.
Arrangements are already made for cremation at the funeral home.
Susan says the US government needs to supply heavy equipment in Jacmel immediately. US citizens need to be rescued.
A generous woman allowed Susan to use her satellite phone. Susan did not know the woman. However, she will not have any additional information for you.

Along with xlean water and food, all these displaced and dead people need respect and the ability to document their experiences and attempt to pass on history in a meaningful way. Before dumping into mass graves, empower people with digital cameras and phones to document the known and unknown, and with time and space, allow the living to connect and give respect to the dead.
Karen J. in Minnesota writes:

I was in Port au Prince during the earthquake. I was evacuated to Santo Domingo. I want to know if other Americans we met there were evacuated. I cannot even find my own name on your person finder. Please help. Thank you.

I was given this site to find a missing person in the Haiti earthquake. So far, I see NOTHING about missing persons on this site! I have done everything to find Nathan D. and have been led NO WHERE to even be encouraged to try to find him. I have no idea if he survived the quake. Is this a site to fine missing persons from the quake or not?
Neale K. in Virginia writes:
It is not appropriate for an agency of the US goverment to be advertising for Google. Why not Amazon? Why not Yahoo? Why not Microsoft? All of them have similar assets and are helping out in Haiti. This looks very much like an endorsement of a single vendor, which is highly improper for a government agency to do. If Congress turns Republican, there should be an investigation of the shady dealings between Google and the Obama administration. This is just as bad as Cheney's energy task force.
Greg B. in Virginia writes:
Kate, I humbly submit that having more than one tool in which to track lost relatives hurts more than it helps. In our experience supporting the American Red Cross, they strongly prefer that everyone use their people finder tool at http://www.familylinks.icrc.org/.

Missing Children is a VERY heartbreaking topic.
There are many worthy websites and website owners out in cyberspace that dedicates there time and effort in finding children.
My name is Bertie and it is my wish to continue the fight to find missing kids.
With this in mind, I want you to consider EVERY form of finding Missing Kids.
Although on the surface this idea looks to be self serving, please take note that this COULD WORK.
Many people are money motivated.So, with that in mind,i want people to consider using a vehicle called DATA NETWORK AFFILIATES.
There heart is certainly in the right place.
They have a Free program that allows people to enter random Licence Plate numbers into their database and they in turn process these tag numbers and GIVE (No Charge) the License Plate Numbers to the proper authorities that help find missing children.
I mentioned that people are motivated by money, well DNA will actually pay people to enter this data in order to find missing children. What a concept.
I hate to put a link here, but in order for you to check it out, I guess I have to.
It takes you to a video that explains what I am talking about.
Keep in mind that yes, this is a money making website, however it is FREE to Sign up and participate. This is 100% free. Your Name and Email is all they ask to get you started.
I think this is a worthwhile project and idea and wish to pass this idea on to you.
Here is the link to get started:
Don't get scared off by the Biz part. It just so happens that that was the only domain left for "DataNetwork"
I hope you like this idea.

Beginning Jan. 7th, Sacramento State will require use of the SafeConnect tool for all university and auxiliary staff who connect to the campus wireless network with a laptop computer (either university-owned or personal). Beginning on that date, when you connect a laptop computer to the campus wireless network, you will be asked to first accept the University Computer and Network User Code of Ethics and then install the SafeConnect tool. This process is very quick and painless and does not compromise your computer or your data in any way. Once you install SafeConnect, you will receive advisory information if you lack malware protection, if your protection is not up-to-date, or if your operating system is not set to check for security updates. If needed, you'll also receive instructions on how to protect your computer by downloading free software. If your computer is protected and up-to-date, you will simply connect to the wireless network as usual.
Your university-provided laptop should be already configured for both SafeConnect and security updates. If, however, you experience any issues with university laptops, please contact either the Service Desk at 278-7337 or your local IT support.
To prepare a personally owned laptop for SafeConnect before you use our wireless network in January, go to www.csus.edu/irt/safeconnect. There you will learn how to accomplish the following three quick steps:
- Pre-install the SafeConnect Client
- Verify that anti-virus software is installed, running, and correctly configured
- Check your operating system for automatic updates
Still not sure where to start with your personal machine? SafeConnect workshops will be available in December and January. For the schedule, go to www.csus.edu/irt/safeconnect.
If you need assistance at any time, please call the IRT Service Desk at 278-7337.
Note that all Sacramento State students who connect to our wireless network are already using SafeConnect, with no significant problems encountered. The sole purpose of SafeConnect is to protect your computer and the campus network from malware. We strongly recommend that you download the SafeConnect tool at this time, as it will both speed your connection to our wireless network in the future and help protect all computers on the Sac State network, including yours.
Note: At this time SafeConnect only applies Windows and Macintosh devices. It does not apply to tablets and smartphones. Keep in mind that Macintosh computers need protection from malware just as much as other computers.

Members of the U.S. Women's National Kayak Polo squad headed to Canada for the Cup of the North, the annual international tournament hosted by the Edmonton Whitewater Paddlers. The tournament took place on February 9-10, 2013 at the Kinsmen Sports Centre in Edmonton, Alberta. A total of nineteen teams competed in three divisions, and athletes flew from as far as China to attend.
The tournament was part of the squad's preparations for the 2013 World Games in Cali, Colombia this summer, and the team was joined by coaches Steven Gale and Nigel Graham. After two exciting days of kayak polo, the squad took fifth place in the B Division. Team captain April Romeo commented that, "this is an important step in continuing to build women's polo in the United States and a great opportunity to give new players exposure to international competition." The squad will attend monthly training camps leading up to the World Games. The next camps are scheduled for Southern California in March and Oklahoma City in April.

Dental Care
During your pregnancy, while you take extra care of your body by watching what you eat and drink, don't forget to take special care of your teeth and gums too. Your teeth and gums are affected by your pregnancy just like other parts of your body, and your oral health could affect the health of your unborn baby.
Approximately 50 percent of pregnant women experience a condition called pregnancy gingivitis. Frequent snacking, especially on sugary foods, can contribute to gingivitis, which can cause swelling, bleeding, redness, and tenderness of the gums. Since pregnant women often eat smaller meals more frequently without brushing after each snack, they may be bathing their teeth in plaque and bacteria. To prevent pregnancy gingivitis, make sure to brush your teeth after each meal and floss at least once a day.
If gingivitis is not treated, it can develop into periodontal disease, a more advanced gum infection that destroys the attachment fibers and supporting bone that hold your teeth in your mouth. Periodontal disease has been linked with low birth weight babies and preterm labor. Oral bacteria contain prostaglandin, one of the hormones that are known to cause labor.
Pregnancy tumors are another oral condition faced by many pregnant women. The tumors often appear as red, raw, painless lumps on the gums during the second trimester. Although they are not cancerous, they may be an indication of a serious oral condition because they are believed to be caused by excess plaque. The tumors usually subside after the baby is born; but if they persist, they should be surgically removed.
If possible, you should have a complete dental exam, and have any necessary procedures performed, before becoming pregnant. And while you are pregnant, you should continue to visit your dentist for regular cleanings. However, elective dental treatments such as x-rays, whitening, and bonding, should be avoided, especially during the first trimester. Dental treatments in general are not recommended during the third trimester because the tilt of the dental chair may reduce blood circulation, and lying on your back for an extended period of time may be uncomfortable.
Always check with your obstetrician before undergoing any dental treatment, and let your dentist know you are pregnant as soon as possible. The following are some procedures and medications often used in dental care that you may encounter while pregnant, as well as information on their safety:
Unnecessary x-rays are discouraged for pregnant women. However, if you must have an x-ray while you are pregnant, rest assured that the risk to your unborn baby is considered minimal, since your uterus is shielded by a lead apron and the amount of radiation that scatters during the x-ray and passes through parts of your body not covered by the apron is negligible. So if you develop a dental condition that requires an x-ray and not having one poses a risk to your health, go ahead and have it.

Precautions to keep kids safe during heat wave important
To prevent children from being locked in buses, vans, state requires alarms
JANESVILLE, Wis. - The heat is posing a big concern when it comes to young ones.
With the heat index nearing the triple digits, the Edgerton Pool was the place to be on Wednesday.
Twenty-eight students from Cargill Christian Preschool and Daycare in Janesville were splashing around for a field trip.
"The kids bring their water bottles from home. We also bring a big gallon jug. We've got fruit slushies for snacks. We're doing everything we can to make sure the kids are cool," said Charlotte Adams, school age field trip coordinator for Cargill.
The kids were transported in vans equipped with an alarm to make sure no one gets left in a hot vehicle.
"The alarm helps you make sure that all of the children are off the bus because you have to go to the back of the bus to be able to turn it off," said Adams.
Around the country this year, 20 children have died after being left in hot cars.
Adams said they haven't experienced a tragedy like that on any of their buses.
"With so many children that ended up dying or getting hurt, there was a big concern with that. People forget," said Arolyn Adams, Cargill's director.
Adams said they count their children multiple times a day, especially when they're on a field trip.Precautions to keep kids safe during heat wave important
The alarms on buses are required by state law, which stemmed from the death of a Milwaukee child in 2009.
Adams admits installing the alarms was expensive but says they're a worthwhile investment.
"It's just an important step to make sure all the children are safe and that's the major concern -- keeping all of the children safe. When you have that many to watch out for and you're responsible, you want to keep them as safe as possible," Adams said.
Adams said they also equipped their six-passenger van with an alarm, even though it's not required by law.
Janesville police recently had to help a parent get a 2-year-old out of a car after the child was accidentally locked inside. There won't be any charges in that case because investigators said it was an accident.
Police haven't had any reports of children being left in hot cars during this heat wave.

The 2013 Sandwich Fair has come and gone. With it are some great memories for the tens of thousands of people who attended.
There were many old favorites with the exhibits and entertainment along with just the right mix of newer excitement to keep us coming back.
I was happy to judge three of the competitions on the Culinary Stage just outside of the Home Arts Building, Yeast Breads, Quick Breads and Chocolate Lovers Dream. It's quite exciting for me to see the commitment of the competitors and the pride of the winners along with the graciousness of those who will try again to win next year. All of their efforts are so impressive.
Cindy Akre is the Superintendent of this event and her Assistant Superintendents consists of Martha Blum, Teresa Akre and Marilyn Merkel.
These ladies work year around to put this event on in the the flawless fashion the contestants deserve and have come to appreciate. My hat is off to each of them for their selfless dedication to the furtherance of the finrest in home cooking. Each year the committee, headed by Cindy, takes the comments they receive and make minute changes to attempt the greatest culinary event possible. My toque is off to you hard working ladies.
This year, for the first time, I did a live cooking demonstration. Broad Leaf Greens, The Super Food was my menu and I pre-made enough for all to have a taste. I always have a great time demonstrating cooking techniques. There were many terrific questions and a bunch of "Mmmmmms" and "Ahhhhs" while the tasting was going on. I could tell the audience had a true passion for cooking. I hope we can expand this next year.
See you all at the Fair next year!

College students are more confident about their intellectual and social skills than in the past, according to a UCLA survey of first-year students. They're overconfident, San Diego State Psychology Professor Jean Twenge, author of Generation Me, tells AP.
A larger percentage of incoming college freshmen rated themselves as "above average'' in several categories compared with college freshmen surveyed in the 1960s, observes Twenge's study, which is published in Self and Identity, a British journal.
When it came to social self-confidence, about half of freshmen questioned in 2009 said they were above average, compared with fewer than a third in 1966. Meanwhile, 60 percent in 2009 rated their intellectual self-confidence as above average, compared with 39 percent in 1966, the first year the survey was given.
In the study, the authors also assert that intellectual confidence may have been bolstered by grade inflation, noting that in 1966, only 19 percent of college students who were surveyed earned an A or A-minus average in high school, compared with 48 percent in 2009.
"So students might be more likely to think they're superior because they have been given better grades,'' Twenge says.
Others see little change in young people over the years or argue that increased confidence can be a positive.

I'd like your insight brewing DHP.
I've noticed that, with varying brands and qualities of DHP, brewing from an infuser basket always gives me a richer, fuller flavor. With even a larger amount of the same tea, infusions have a nice color, but the flavor can be a bit watery in comparison. I've noticed that the same thing happens with gongfu preparation.
Am I doing something wrong? Or, given the way this tea tastes, should I rely on a basket infuser for certain teas?

Flying as an industry has undergone some dramatic changes in the last two decades, and it can be a bit mind-boggling to look back and consider the impact of some of those changes.
When I first got hired, direct deposit had just been introduced. Knowing what I know now, I can't imagine the challenges of this job when you faced the possibility of not being able to access your pay check for up to two weeks because you wouldn't be home to cash it. Married guys could make special arrangements, but the single guys…not so much.
Most of the pilots I talked to while this transition was going on told me that over time they had been forced to build a reserve in their checking accounts so that they could pay their bills. Plan B was to get a line of credit from the bank, but that wasn't always easy, especially for bottom-feeder first officers. Bear in mind too that getting your check deposited was only part of the battle. Back then, you still had to write checks for everything. I can easily remember when a roomful of pilots would bring their bills and their checkbooks with them to work, and would spend a break or an overnight in the hotel getting their bills in the mail. Online bill pay was a pipe dream.
Speaking of the Internet, nothing else has had such a dramatic effect on the way airlines run. It has put travel agents in museums, and people can check in at home the day before a flight. For the flight crews, it is now possible to fly a career and only talk to a chief pilot or flight attendant overseer on the day you interview and the day you retire. Email communications take care of most issues, and even changes in our schedules can be acknowledged on a cell phone screen. Pilots dread talking to
schedulers, and online acknowledgement makes that totally unnecessary now.
The cell phone has revolutionized our lives, and while it isn't always for the better, it often is. For pilots, checking weather radar is right at the fingertips, as is tracking the location of your next ship, calling MX Control without having to go back to the gate, or putting in a bid at the last minute because you forgot to do it on vacation.
Speaking of which, back in the day, a pilot on vacation had to call a trusted friend–with a calling card, from a pay phone–and ask that person to submit his or her monthly bids. Those bids were often blind, because with no internet, you couldn't see the bid packets and the trips that were available. The joke was to always call someone senior to you who wouldn't have a motivation to manipulate your bid, or call the secretary in the office. Our Mother Hen was the best, and she would not only put in your bid, she also would tell you how to improve it. Now, even if you are on the other side of the globe, you can put in an accurate bid on time…if you remember.
Some things never change, and even those that supposedly will may not pan out well (I personally think the whole NextGen project will just be huge quantities of money wasted). But many of the changes are such that the people that preceded me or you in this industry wouldn't even recognize it. Not being able to check the weather on my phone? I shudder at the thought.—Chip Wright

Diagnostic process is focus of wrongful death trial
NEW ULM – How doctors investigate symptoms of incoming patients and when further action is called for were the focus Wednesday in the wrongful death lawsuit against Allina Health System and New Ulm Medical Center (NUMC) in Brown County District Court.
The lawsuit, which was filed Sept. 30, 2010, seeks over $50,000 for the next-of-kin plus $10,000 for funeral and burial expenses of 45-year-old Iowa trucker Verlyn Buls, who collapsed and could not be resuscitated on Oct. 25, 2006 in the NUMC emergency department. He had been admitted that morning with urticaria of unknown origins (or hives), hypotension (86/54, abnormally low blood pressure) and a history of taking anti-hypertensives ( drugs used to treat high blood pressure, and tachycardia, or a heart rate exceeding 100 beats per minute), according to the court documents. He was re-admitted that evening to the ER, where he collapsed. The autopsy determined the cause of death was cardiac dysrhythmia (irregular heart beat) with underlying coronary artery disease, according to court documents.
The civil lawsuit names Dale W. Bohlke, M.D., as the physician who sent Buls home after measuring his heart beat and other vital statistics without ordering further testing. The lawsuit alleges Bohlke, nurses and other professional and non-professional employees were negligent in the care and treatment of Buls.
Dr. Louis Ling, associate medical director for medical education at Hennepin County Medical Center and associate dean for graduate medical education at the University of Minnesota Medical School testified Wednesday as an expert witness called by the Allina defense.
Ling testified on the process doctors follow to determine the appropriate responses for symptoms of incoming patients. First, doctors must check the immediate vitals of a patient to determine if quick response is needed. Then, the doctors are responsible to ask investigative questions about why the patient came to the hospital to determine which reasonably possible problems exist.
He said Bohlke acted correctly during Buls' initial visit to the ER in not ordering an electrocardiogram (EKG) scan because Buls did not inform the doctor of his earlier chest pains. He said Buls vitals then improved, compared to those taken by a nurse when he first arrived at the hospital. The lower results could have reasonably been determined to his recovery from the physical exertion of walking into the hospital, given his being overweight at 400 to 450 pounds.
Ling also testified that recent studies have shown doctors that unnecessary testing can be detrimental to patients.
When cross-examined about factors such as Buls lifestyle habits that put him at high risk of heart attack, Ling maintained his position. He said it was a correct choice similar to Bohlke's decision to not test for other medical problems.
Dr. Lindsey Thomas, forensic pathologist with Hennepin County Medical Center, testified about her examination of the medical autopsy on Buls. She said the results showed Buls had all of the major arteries to his heart narrowed up to 90 percent due to health complications and that scarring tissue on the heart indicated he had previously suffered at least two undiagnosed heart attacks.
Addressing Tuesday testimony by doctors given on behalf of the plaintiff, Thomas said the narrowing of the arteries that caused complications and death would not have been addressed by items like anti-coagulates and glycerin. She said they address other problems that can cause heart attacks that were not present in this case.
She testified that she believed Buls had already reached the limit of his life expectancy due to the condition of his heart, and that he would likely have not lived long if he had survived the heart attack.
In cross-examination, Thomas said she had not dealt with live patients in 33-years since her residency and that she had no official certification for her life expectancy assertions.
Bohlke returned to the witness stand for Allina. He repeated the points laid out by Ling, asserting he had made the correct decision because Buls did not inform him of the chest pains he had experienced. He testified that he had asked about things like chest pressure, but considered it possible that Buls did not associate that with the same as asking about chest pain, He said that if he had been informed about the chest pain, he would have moved to further action with Buls.
The trail will continue today at 8:30 a.m.

""It's not so much a frenzy as it was before, but in the long term it's going in the right direction." "
Brazil Hosts Annual Latin American Confab
The Latin American business aviation market is delivering on its promise, with Brazil leading the charge. The eighth annual Latin American Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition (LABACE) will be held at Congonhas Airport in São Paulo, Brazil, from August 11 to 13. Last year's event attracted more than 14,000 visitors and a record-setting number of static-display aircraft (56) and exhibitors (150). This year looks to deliver similar numbers.

Sebastian Hadrys, whose Landhaus in Magdeburg is a dream come true, enjoys great popularity among diners and restaurant critics.
Magdeburg was not exactly a gastronomic hotspot when Sebastian Hadrys opened his Landhaus restaurant not far from his parents' home after working at Landhaus Scherrer under Heinz Wehmann and in Louis C. Jacob under Thomas Martin. Little by little, he lured guests away from simple regional food and introduced a superior country cuisine with a menu characterised by excellent produce that makes for magical moments. Alongside the regional Bördeland menu, Hadrys' protagonists are scallops from Rungis, line-caught cod from Norway and lobster from Brittany, all beautifully cooked in the 'honest craftsman' spirit and presented as cohesive but not overly complex creations. The fact that Hadrys' food is excellent value for money is one reason why people travel from far and wide to eat in his restaurant, which is deliberately positioned outside the star category to enable him to continue running it as profitably as possible.
Hadrys' specialities include pumpkin velouté, which he likes to enhance with different types of crustacean, his crispy two-course duck, which is a fixture on the winter menu, and various locally hunted game specialities such as saddle of young venison in a breaded crust on braised cassis cabbage, winter vegetables and open semolina dumplings. The outstanding quality of the game, delicately cooked, with a thin breaded crust to retain its juices, combined with wonderfully aromatic cassis cabbage and wintry dumplings – it all adds up to perfectly executed, ambitious country-house cuisine with an element of fun.

Listening to Ms. Cash talk about her creative process,
Listening to Ms. Cash talk about her creative process, about "catching songs" and the muse rewarding hard work, I was so struck by the echo of a fascinating segment in the "other" podcast in my life: WNYC's RadioLab. There's a fantastic 10 minute segment 29 minutes into the episode entitled "Help," as Liz Gilbert (the "Eat, Pray, Love" Liz Gilbert) recounts an interview she had with Tom Waits (who engages in direct dialog with his muses), her own similar (verbal!) dialogs with emerging works and then later the story behind Robert Frost's "Two Roads Diverged" poem. It is SO interesting to me to hear of such divergent artists expressing such similar experiences.

Here's the direct link to the referenced RadioLab episode

Institute of Archaeology
MSc in Archaeological Science: Technology and Materials
Co-ordinator: Marcos Martinón-Torres
Other Major Contributors: Mike Charlton; Ian Freestone; Bill Sillar; Ulrike Sommer; John Merkel; Patrick Quinn
The application of scientific techniques to the study of archaeological remains is an increasingly important dimension of archaeological research. Using suitable analytical methods, it is possible to uncover patterns associated with the selection and provenance of raw materials, the manufacturing processes behind archaeological objects, the technical knowledge of past craftspeople, the direction and tempo of past trading patterns and/or the persistence of particular cultural traditions. Scientific information often allows degrees of resolution that cannot be obtained through simpler stylistic comparisons or historical research.
This MSc programme aims to bridge the gap between archaeology and science by integrating both a detailed training in the use of scientific techniques for the analysis of inorganic archaeological materials and a solid background in the anthropology of technology. By the end of the degree, students should have a good understanding of the foundations of the most established analytical techniques, practical experience in their application and data processing, as well as the ability to design research projects that employ instrumental analyses to address archaeological questions.
Teaching and research include the use of thin-section petrography, metallography, optical and electron microscopy and microanalysis (SEM/EDS and WD/EPMA) and bulk chemical analysis (XRF and ICP), and their application to the study ceramics, glass, stone, metals and metallurgical debris. In addition, we introduce and discuss strategies for data processing and interpretation, as well as relevant archaeological theory, using archaeological and ethnographic examples from across the world.
The degree is typically a full-time, one-year programme (commencing in September) although it is also available on a part-time basis. It is designed for graduates in archaeology with an interest in scientific methods. It is also suitable for conservators and others concerned with archaeological collections, and for science graduates who have, or are willing to acquire, a good understanding of archaeology.

Here's how RW members rated this race (249 votes).
In short: Well organised and good fun. Easy to get to and park etc. do it again next year.Date of review: March 6, 2013
In short: This was my first half marathon and aimed for an under 2 hour time which i achieved 1:59 :-) this was a well run event, organisation was to the highest standards, there were no interuptions and the race began on time.... fairly flat route felt could In full: of been more challenging, however the hill which is approx 2 -3 miles in was a sheer incline which i thoroughly enjoyed what you have to remember is what goes up must come down. There were plenty of toilet facilities at the start and the atmosphere was great if you're a beginner this is perfect for you, the marshals were fantastic along with the people of Eastbourne both showing support throughout , I am defiantly doing this next year and am proud to say I have caught the running bug thanks to this AMAZING HALF MARAHTON. Thankyou Eastbourne Date of review: March 6, 2013
In short: just great funIn full: Have done lots of marathons including boston this half marathon was most enjoyable spent three days in eastbourne only one suggestion could with switch the heating on .65year old codger now looking forward to brightonDate of review: March 6, 2013
In short: Everyone mentions 'the hill' but yes, between miles 2 and 3 there is a cliff so it's a hard start (especially if you kick off too quickly, which I did). The last 4 miles are a bit boring but not too bad. My second time and would do again.Date of review: March 6, 2013
In short: Well organised and beginner friendlyIn full: Two many twists and turns around the harbour area. Very nice course apart from that. Date of review: March 6, 2013
Date of review: March 5, 2013
In short: Got a PB (albeit only my second HM) of 1:28. The hill on mile 2 was greater than i had expected but was able to fly down on other side. Availed of free massage and swim afterwards, with pub lunch with mates on way back to London - we all enjoyed it!Date of review: March 5, 2013
In short: Decent half marathonIn full: Enjoyable, well organised race with good enthusiastic marshalls.Tough course especially the steep hill early on although at least you get pay-off immediately on way down. Section around the harbour is tight with lots of narrow turns. Also I missed some of the mile markers early on which could be made a bit more obvious.Shame weather was not great in the morning although there was still good support in places.Date of review: March 4, 2013
In short: A race of two halves! In full: This was my first ever race so i've not got anything to compare to but overall It was pretty awesome, my only gripes where when you got around the harbour area and everything tailed off a bitPositives* Mostly Flat* Great Entertainment ( The Pentacle Drummer under the band stand were amazing) * That Hill * Great Crowd* First 8/9 miles is top notchNegatives* Last few miles around the harbour, felt a bit lost, no crowds, sharp turns* Medal was a bit rubbish* That hill * Only about 3 Gents portaloos* Kids handing out water didn't quite know when to let go* No one handing out water at harbour, having to take your own out holdersDate of review: March 4, 2013
In short: Slightly on the expensive side. But well organised and a decent route. Would do it again.Date of review: March 4, 2013

Stocks Thumped by Fed's Disclosure on Stimulus
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Major U.S. stock averages dipped Thursday following a downtrodden tone from the latest minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee, the policy-making wing of the Federal Reserve . The surprise news outweighed stronger-than-expected employment data for December and a number of upbeat monthly retail-sales reports.
Stock action was more subdued as equities traded in the red for much of the morning, in contrast to the big surge in stocks the previous session. Investors on Thursday booked profits amid worries that U.S. lawmakers' last-minute budget agreement falls short of dealing with the country's deficit.
The FOMC minutes said that its staff "reported on potential risks to financial stability, including those associated with a disorderly resolution of the so-called fiscal cliff, a delayed increase in the federal debt ceiling, or a future deterioration of financial conditions in Europe."
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was off 21 points, or 0.2%, at 13,391.
Breadth was negative, with losers beating winners by 18 to 12. Decliners included UnitedHealth (UNH) , DuPont (DD) , General Electric (GE) and Microsoft (MSFT) .
Advancers in the Dow included Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) , Alcoa (AA) , Caterpillar (CAT) and Merck (MRK) .
The S&P 500 fell 3 points, or 0.2%, to 1,459. The tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 12 points, or 0.4%, at 3,101.
Sectors traded mixed in the broad market. Conglomerates, consumer non-cyclicals, basic materials, technology, services, utilities and financials were edging lower, while energy, consumer cyclicals, transportation, health care and capital goods were in the green.
Volumes were at 3.77 billion shares at the New York Stock Exchange and 1.75 billion shares on the Nasdaq. Advancers were edging decliners narrowly by a ratio of 1.3-to-1 on the Big Board, but losers beat winners 1.1-to-1 on the Nasdaq.
Sentiment among the FOMC members was split, which was a notable point that hit investors.
The minutes revealed: "In considering the outlook for the labor market and the broader economy, a few members expressed the view that ongoing asset purchases would likely be warranted until about the end of 2013, while a few others emphasized the need for considerable policy accommodation but did not state a specific time frame or total for purchases. Several others thought that it would probably be appropriate to slow or to stop purchases well before the end of 2013."
One of the next major deadlines is the few weeks that Congress has left before it must raise the debt ceiling to avert a government default on bills and financial obligations. This means the Obama administration and Congress must tackle the sequestration issue that was pushed back for two months in the "fiscal cliff" deal.
Julia Coronado, chief North American economist at BNP Paribas, said the "two parties are yet again starting miles apart" on this issue, with Republicans having already indicated that they believe the tax side of fiscal policy has been addressed for now and their focus will be on spending.

Nvidia Corp.'s inability to negotiate with Intel Corp. regarding Quick Path Interconnect license is starting to show its disadvantages. One of the company's partners plans to launch a mainboard based on non-nForce core-logic and it appears that this will not be the only mainboard product without Nvidia onboard.
EVGA, one of the most loyal partners of Nvidia Corp., plans to drop exclusivity to the Santa Clara, California-based graphics chip and core-logic designer and introduce a mainboard based on Intel X58 chipset. This is a departure from EVGA's traditions and it will hardly be the only non-Nvidia-based motherboard in the company's arsenal, still, according to reports, some of those platforms will feature an Nvidia PCIe hub chip to enable multi-GPU SLI support, claims journalist Theo Valich in his blog.
As reported earlier this year, EVGA had hired engineering team from now-gone Epox company and is now able to develop its own motherboards in a bid to offer lower price or better functionality. EVGA is primarily known for its graphics cards and it remains to be seen whether the company will become a high-profile name on the market of mainboards, where competition is even tougher compared to the market of add-in graphics boards.
The first EVGA non-Nvidia platform based on Intel X58/ICH10R core-logic that will support Intel Core i7 chips with triple-channel memory controller will feature advanced overclocking capabilities as well as very solid design. The motherboard will feature digital pulse-width modulation (PWM) with 10 power phases, solid-state capacitors, rich overclocking capabilities and sophisticated cooling. The mainboard will have three PCI Express x16 slots to enable 2-way, 3-way and 4-way ATI CrossFireX or Nvidia SLI configurations.
In addition, the EVGA X58 motherboard is projected to feature lifetime warranty, which is unprecedented on the mainboard market, as well as EVGA's usual 90-day step up program, under which end-users can upgrade with discounts.
According to the blog post, the EVGA's Intel X58-based mainboard, which is due in mid-November, will be followed by the "ultimate motherboard" due by Christmas.

Baby bison born at Lehigh County preserve
The pitter-patter of little feet or hooves can now be heard at the Trexler Lehigh County Nature Preserve and Zoo.
The preserve has seen its first bison birth in nearly nine years, officials said.
The little guy, or girl, was born April 17 to proud papa, Big Boy ,and Mamma Trexi 102 years after after Gen. Harry Trexler brought bison to Lehigh County.
"This is really all about having people of Lehigh County and the Lehigh Valley be able to enjoy the natural setting and the animals in a natural process and environment of watching little ones come from bigger ones here in nature," said Don Cunningham.
While serving as the Lehigh County executive, Cunningham found out the county's bison were on birth control to manage the herd. That resulted in fertility problems.
Two new females were brought in to help repopulate the herd, which now stands at 10, plus one wobbly member.
"When you talk about the size of our herd, it's not a big herd, but it's a big herd in Lehigh County," said Rich Molchany, with the Trexler Preserve.
The largest herd is at Yellowstone National Park.
Officials said bison are no longer in danger of being physically extinct, but genetic extinction is another matter.
Over the years, bison have been bred with other livestock. Officials said that is why a pure-bred herd like the one in Lehigh County is important.
"It's truly a jewel within our park system and unfortunately not as well known to everyone as it should be," said Tom Muller, Lehigh County's director of administration.
Preserve officials said bison are so big and so stand-offish, the new addition to the herd came as a surprise.
They're hoping another bundle of joy will follow, but they first have to come up with a name. Perhaps General is fitting since the baby bison was born on General Trexler's birthday.

This November, Los Cabos was shining in an even brighter light. From November 14th to 17th our city was the host of the 1st Annual Baja International Film Festival at Los Cabos, co-organized by Scott Cross and Sean Cross, who founded the Colorado Film Institute and the popular Vail Film festival. The Baja International Film Festival, is a partnership between Mexico and United States filmmakers and looks to have a global reach. In fact, this year there were 80 films presented from 18 different countries!
I was very excited when I received the ticket for the events. It was an opportunity to experience the glamour and excitement of Hollywood, here in Los Cabos.
There were parties, red carpets, speaking panels and of course, films. In attendance were filmmakers, actors and other special guests. Everyone was swept up in the magic! Of course this is no surprise- Baja is an enchanting place and has even served as the backdrop for major films including Troy.
One of my favorite events of the festival was the Outdoor Screening & Filmmaker Reception at Wirikuta, one of the largest cactus gardens in the world. Watching the movie under the starlit sky and surrounded by palm trees, in the company of film lovers, was truly a special experience.
The whole week was truly fantastic and I am already looking forward to next year! After all Los Cabos is a favorite destination for members of the film industry, making this a festival that is sure to grow in the future.
