You have no items in your shopping cart.
I just wanted to thank you for your great customer service. When I needed to contact you, I was a bit apprehensive, not having any previous experience with your company, but you completely took care of my situation in a cheerful, conscientious manner. Life can be very stressful when you have a loved one with a chronic condition that requires medical identification. It's so nice to know that there is a company out there that not only cares about making this fun and fashionable, but also durable. Your kindness is very much appreciated.

Asustek Computer plans to release a slate personal computer later this year that will run Windows 7 operating system and which cost will be around $1000. In addition, the company readies a less expensive device running Google Android. The company also plans a tablet running Microsoft's Windows Embedded Compact 7.
Large, Powerful, Expensive
The very first device in the Asus Eee Pad family - the Eee Pad EP121 - will be a premium product aimed rather at professionals than on mainstream users. The device will feature 12" touch-screen, Intel Core 2 Duo microprocessor (probably ULV 9-series with 10W power consumption) and Windows 7 Home Premium operating system. The product will cost around $1000 and will be available towards the end of the year, said Jerry Shen, CEO of Asustek, speaking to reporters after the company's second quarter earnings conference, reports IDG News Service.
In fact, a slate with a 12" screen is not really a small and lightweight device; moreover, an Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 10W thermal design power (TDP) may be rather hot in certain conditions. That said, the Asus Eee Pad EP121 may be a rather interesting, but still a niche product for those, who demand performance from a tablet that lacks even a keyboard.
Windows Vs. Android
Another member of the Eee Pad breed will feature 10" touch-screen, and ARM architecture-based microprocessor as well as Microsoft's Windows Embedded Compact 7 operating system. It will cost from $399 to 499 and will be available sometimes in January, 2011. Given the fact that the slate still has 10" screen, it may still be aimed at people looking for something more than simplistic consumption of content while on the go.
The most impressive Eee Pad will be available sometime in Q1 2011 and will be powered by Google Android platform alongside and ARM architecture-based chip. The product will cost less than $399 and will be a direct competitor for Apple iPad. That said, it can be expected that the device will offer approximately similar size, functions and battery life.
"If you want to compete with the iPad, you have to do more than just be less expensive. You have to offer more features. We want to spend more time perfecting the [Eee Pad] before we launch. We are looking more at Q1 to launch the devices," said Mr. Shen.
Asus presently employs a team of over 800 software developers working on Android, but the majority of those engineers are tailoring Android for Asustek's smartphones. According to the chief exec of Asus, some of those engineers will be transferred to the tablet product division. But "some" may not be enough, given the fact that there are hundreds of engineers at Apple working on various types of programs and services for the iPad customers.

Comments about Learning Resources Snap It Up!® Card Games—Phonics & Reading: Word Families:
I first choose short-vowel word families for very beginning readers and play only with those. I use it to make quick-recognition of phonics words fun and exciting. Kids can't resist this very fast-paced game, but it is important for young children to use only the letter combinations they know or have learned to sound out. If you start with the whole pack for emerging readers, they may become frustrated at being slow.I am teaching 6 and 10-year-olds and both get so excited with this game!

Stocks Decline as Tepid Growth Combines With Fed Jitters
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Major U.S. stock averages on Friday retreated after tepid industrial output and consumer sentiment reports dampened investor sentiment ahead of next week'sFederal Reserve policy statement.
The S&P 500 fell 0.6% to close at 1,626.73. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.7% to 15,070.18 while the Nasdaq lost 0.63% to 3,423.56.
"I think that fake rally of yesterday was predicated on yet another rumor about what
While many investors are sharply focused and anxious about what the Fed might reveal about future tapering plans next week, Ethan Harris, co-head of global economics research at Bank of America, said earlier this week that the U.S. central bank would really only begin to taper after strong, sustained evidence that the economy is on solid ground. But even then, the Fed wouldn't suddenly go from $85 billion of monthly bond purchases to zero.
"The Fed will make it
"It's not like the economy is collapsing," Harris added. "But we aren't starting to accelerate yet."
A lackluster industrial output report released before the market open showed that the U.S. remains vulnerable to weakness in the world economy. The Federal Reserve reported that industrial production was unchanged in May, vs. expectations of a 0.2% increase, after falling by an upwardly-revised 0.4% in April. A drop in utilities output was offset by a rise in mining output during the period. Capacity utilization rose to a less than expected to 77.6% from a downwardly-revised 77.7%. Economists were generally expecting a rise to 77.9% last month.
The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment report came in less than expected at 82.7 in June; economists were expecting 84.5, the same as the prior month.
Inflation pressures appeared to remain relatively subdued in May. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported early Friday that the producer price index gained by a greater than expected 0.5% in May after falling 0.7% in April. Economists, on average, expected the PPI to increase 0.1%. The core PPI held steady at 0.1%, as expected.

CHICAGO — Raise the age at which you can begin collecting full Social Security benefits? Older Americans say no. They also veto reductions in the cost-of-living increase.
But a poll finds support among those 50 and older for raising the cap on earnings that are taxed to fund the Social Security program so higher-income workers pay more.
The survey by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds passionate opposition to any change in the way Social Security benefits are calculated that could result in smaller annual raises.
The poll found that 62 percent of respondents expressed opposition to such a proposal, compared with 21 percent who supported it.
The chained CPI, or consumer price index, has been proposed as a new way of calculating the cost-of-living adjustment, but it would reduce raises.
"I really think it's a sacred cow," said Margie Nugent, a 55-year-old farmer from North Umberland, Pa. "They shouldn't touch it."
About the same number, 58 percent, oppose gradually raising the age when retirees qualify for full benefits, while 29 percent support it. About one-third believe people should be eligible for full benefits before 65. Only 10 percent say full eligibility should come after 67, the top eligibility age under current law.
"I contributed to it. It's my money," said Joan McDonald, 65, of Annapolis, Md., who retired as an accountant this year and began collecting Social Security. "The plan was, 'Contribute this and you get this.' You can't change the rules."
Survey respondents showed more willingness to support Social Security proposals that would mostly impact those with higher incomes.
Forty-one percent expressed support for reducing benefits for seniors with higher incomes, compared with 44 percent who opposed. Whites were much more supportive of reducing benefits for high-earning seniors than minorities.
Changes to Social Security are on the horizon because the trust funds that support the massive program are projected to run dry in 2033.

"Life is composed of lights and shadows, and we would be untruthful, insincere, and saccharine if we tried to pretend there were no shadows. Most things are good, and they are the strongest things; but there are evil things too, and you are not doing a child a favor by trying to shield him from reality. The important thing is to teach a child that good can always triumph over evil. "
Cabin Comforts
Creating a more comfortable cabin is a never-ending goal for the builders of business and private jets and their suppliers. Seats have been redesigned so the passenger no longer slides forward when they're reclined. Carpet makers have created new designs in blends of silk and wool that entice the passenger to walk barefoot. Lavatory mirrors are on gimbals so they can be tilted to accommodate everyone, tall or short. Showers have become a standard option in larger airplanes and LED lighting is no longer unusual.
And just when you thought it couldn't get any better, it does. Here are some of the latest cabin-comfort-oriented trends and innovations to catch our eye.
Showers are becoming commonplace. Few in-flight luxuries are more desirable than a hot shower before you arrive at your destination—especially if you've been airborne for many hours. Once an option only on large reconfigured airliners, showers are becoming available on a growing number of smaller, ultra-long-range, large-cabin business jets.
A standup shower is now a standard option on Bombardier's Global 6000, and with a range of nearly 7,000 miles (roughly 12 hours in the air), 40 minutes of hot water on that airplane equals a lot of luxury. Showers will also be available for the forthcoming Global 7000 and Global 8000.
Last year, Dassault announced that it had designed a standup shower for its Falcon 7X, the largest of its business jets. The shower includes a seat, a rain-style showerhead and an electro-chromatic privacy feature that lets you change the clear glass window to opaque in seconds. It provides 30 minutes of shower time.
On its new G650, meanwhile, Gulfstream is offering a shower that delivers sufficient hot water for an hour of use. A digital panel shows the amount of hot water remaining. The shower is situated to one side of the cabin to allow full access to the aft baggage compartment.
Designers are doing more with leather. The tooled leather walls created for 16th century Franco/Italian noblewoman Catherine de Médicis and the French noble families of the era have prompted Townsend Leather to develop a Grand Damask design. The leather supplier describes the Médicis damask as "classic in feel but updated." It comes in eight colors and the 27-inch-by-27-inch panels are handcrafted with shimmering, foiled accents and hand-applied striations.
Edelman Leather, meanwhile, has introduced a Leather & Lace line, inspired by the work of artists from Belgium, Hungary and Slovakia and transferred through the use of laser etching and cutting technology. Drawing on the die-cut felt work of Jasper Morrison, Dutch designers have introduced to the Moooi, Broog and Vitra lines hauntingly elegant chandeliers by Diller Scofidio & Renfro for Swarovski, and the collections of Prada, McQueen, Louis and Lanvin. Edelman's artists describe the results as both "chic and fun."
A child seat combines safety and comfort. Shouldn't kids be accorded the same in-flight safety and comfort as adults? The folks from Gama Engineering think so, and have introduced what they bill as the "first child's seat certified for takeoff and landing in most business jet configurations." The seat, which can be customized to match cabin colors and fabrics, accommodates children up to 39 inches tall and weighing up to 44 pounds.
According to the UK-based firm, the seat has been approved for installation under European Aviation Safety Agency supplemental type certificates for a wide range of corporate jets, including those manufactured by Bombardier, Dassault and Gulfstream.
Gulfstream clears the air. Gulfstream Aerospace's new G650 offers a separate exhaust system for the lavatory to efficiently remove unwanted odors. The main component of the system—which is now standard on the G450 and G550 as well—is a semicircular vented aluminum tube mounted just under the toilet-bowl cover. Lifting the padded seat automatically activates the exhaust, which can also be turned on with a switch.
A cup holder holds promise. For decades, designers have created cup holders with the mistaken idea that one size fits all. Cups and glasses that are too small tip over while those with a handle won't fit. And with bottled-water suppliers now displaying a penchant for odd shapes, such as the square Fiji water bottle, cup holders can lead to a game of trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
Cup Inserts Inc. to the rescue! The company has a patent pending on aluminum inserts that adapt to hold virtually any size or shape securely. Plus, they neatly fit into any existing cup holder with a 2.75- to 3.5-inch diameter and an inside depth of at least three-quarters of an inch. This means the insert can secure almost any cup or glass, even a 12-inch-tall wine glass. It can also be installed quickly and can be moved from one cup holder to another, regardless of differences in size, without drilling or modification of woodwork. The inserts are available in 10 standard finishes, with a custom finish or with no plating at all.
The Legacy 500 introduces a multipurpose seat. Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer opted for a new executive seat from B/E Aerospace for its soon-to-be-certified Legacy 500 midsize business jet. And the emphasis is on comfort.
The standard eight dual-club seats are manually articulated with 360-degree swivel and extended floor tracking. Each set of facing seats fully reclines and slides together to form more than 26.5 inches of full-flat napping surface.
Those who need more than a snooze may want to choose the optional, three-place side-facing divan. When extended, it forms a comfortable bed. For even greater comfort, you can add an optional second facing divan. When both are extended, they meet to form a bed with about six feet of sidewall-to-sidewall luxury.
Stand by for better humidity levels. Stand by for better humidity levels. In the typical business jet cabin, humidity is generally no more than about 3 percent. That's not good, especially on long flights, as studies have shown that dry air in the cabin contributes to the post-flight fatigue commonly called jet lag. Very low humidity is particularly bad for passengers suffering from diabetes, heart problems or respiratory difficulties, and those who are on certain medications, such as blood thinners.
Fractional ownership giant NetJets liked the idea of a more comfortable humidity level enough to consider a proprietary cabin humidification package on Global 6000s still to be delivered by Bombardier as part of a major aircraft order.
Liebherr of Switzerland has designed a cabin and cockpit humidification system based on a boiler system to produce pure water vapor. It is available in both Bombardier and Gulfstream business jets.
CTT Systems of Nykoping, Sweden, is the major supplier of cabin humidification systems for larger bizliners, with its Cair technology. Cair includes the company's Zonal Drying system to counter condensation problems.
The Liebherr and CTT Systems technologies provide for cabin humidity between 10 and 20 percent.
I believe that private planes are the wave of the future. Nice way to expand your business.

- Scott opined that backup solutions do not offer economies of scale, in his post [Backup Sucks Reason 38].
- I saw this as an opportunity to promote the new IBM Tivoli Storage Manager v6.1 which offers a variety of new scalability features, and continues to provide excellent economies of scale for large deployments, in my post [IBM has scalable backup solutions].
- Sadly, Scott decide to attack back with FUD, demonstrating that he has not been keeping up with the latest IBM TSM announcements, in his post [TSM Scalability (and the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow)].
"So does TSM scale? Sure! Just add more servers. But this is not an economy of scale. Nothing gets less expensive as the capacity grows. You get a more or less linear growth of costs that is directly correlated to the growth of primary storage capacity. (Technically, it costs will jump at regular and predictable intervals, by regular and predictable and equal amounts, as you add TSM servers to the infrastructure--but on average it is a direct linear growth. Assuming you are right sized right now, if you were to double your primary storage capacity, you would double the size of the TSM infrastructure, and double your associated costs.)"
I talked about inaccurate vendor FUD in my post [The murals in restaurants], and recently, I saw StorageBod's piece, [FUDdy Waters]. So what would "economies of scale" look like? Using Scott's own words:
- Without Economies of Scale
- "If it costs you $5 to backup a given amount of data, it probably costs you $50 to back up 10 times that amount of data, and $500 to back up 100 times that amount of data."
- With Economies of Scalee
- "If anybody can figure out how to get costs down to $40 for 10 times the amount of data, and $300 for 100 times the amount of data, they will have an irrefutable advantage over anybody that has not been able to leverage economies of scale."
- Case 1: The one-person company
- Here the sole owner needs a backup solution. Here are all the steps she might perform:
- Spend hours of time evaluating different backup products available, and make sure her operating system, file system and applications are supported
- Spend hours shopping for external media, this could be an external USB disk drive, optical DVD drive, or tape drive, and confirm it is supported by the selected backup software.
- Purchase the backup software, external drive, and if optical or tape, blank media cartridges.
- Spend time learning the product, purchase "Backup for Dummies" or similar book, and/or taking a training class.
- Install and configure the software
- Operate the software, or set it up to run automatically, and take the media offsite at the end of the day, and back each morning
- Case 2: The ten-person company
- I guess if each of the ten employees went off and performed all of the same steps as above, there would be no economies of scale.
Fortunately, co-workers are amazingly efficient in avoiding unnecessary work.
- Rather than have all ten people evaluate backup solutions, have one person do it. If everyone runs the same or similar operating system, file systems and applications, this can be done about the same as the one-person case.
- Ditto on the storage media. Why should 10 people go off and evaluate their own storage media. One person can do it for all ten people in about the same time as it takes for one person.
- Purchasing the software and hardware. Ok, here is where some costs may be linear, depending on your choices. Some software vendors give bulk discounts, so purchasing 10 seats of the same software could be less than 10 times the cost of one license. As for storage hardware, it might be possible to share drives and even media. Perhaps one or two storage systems can be shared by the entire team.
- For a lot of backup software, most of the work is in the initial set up, then it runs automatically afterwards. That is the case for TSM. You create a "dsm.opt" file, and it can list all of the include/exclude files and other rules and policies. Once the first person sets this up, they share it with their co-workers.
- Hopefully, if storage hardware was consolidated, such that you have fewer drives than people, you can probably have fewer people responsible for operations. For example, let's have the first five employees sharing one drive managed by Joe, and the second five employees sharing a second drive managed by Sally. Only two people need to spend time taking media offsite, bringing it back and so on.
- Case 3: The hundred-person company
- Again, it is possible that a hundred-person company consists of 10 departments of 10 people each, and they all follow the above approach independently, resulting in no economies of scale. But again, that is not likely.
- Here one or a few people can invest time to evaluate backup solutions. Certainly far less than 100 times the effort for a one-person company.
- Same with storage media. With 100 employees, you can now invest in a tape library with robotic automation.
- Purchase of software and hardware. Again, discounts will probably apply for large deployments. Purchasing 1 tape library for all one hundred people is less than 10 times the cost and effort of 10 departments all making independent purchases.
- With a hundred employees, you may have some differences in operating system, file systems and applications. Still, this might mean two to five versions of dsm.opt, and not 10 or 100 independent configurations.
- Operations is where the big savings happen. TSM has "progressive incremental backup" so it only backs up changed data. Other backup schemes involve taking period full backups which tie up the network and consume a lot of back end resources. In head-to-head comparisons between IBM Tivoli Storage Manager and Symantec's NetBackup, IBM TSM was shown to use significantly less network LAN bandwidth, less disk storage capacity, and fewer tape cartridges than NetBackup.
- The savings are even greater with data deduplication. Either using hardware, like IBM TS76750 ProtecTIER data deduplication solution, or software like the data deduplication capability built-in with IBM TSM v6.1, you can take advantage of the fact that 100 employees might have a lot of common data between them.
So, I have demonstrated how savings through economies of scale are achieved using IBM Tivoli Storage Manager. Adding one more person in each case is cheaper than the first person. The situation is not linear as Scott suggests. But what about larger deployments? IBM TS3500 Tape Library can hold one PB of data in only 10 square feet of data center floorspace. The IBM TS7650G gateway can manage up to 1 PB of disk, holding as much as 25 PB of backup copies. IT Analysts Tony Palmer, Brian Garrett and Lauren Whitehouse from Enterprise Strategy Group tried IBM TSM v6.1 out for themselves and wrote up a ["Lab Validation"] report. Here is an excerpt:
The majority of Fortune 1000 customers use IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, and it is the backup software that IBM uses itself in its own huge data centers, including the cloud computing facilities. In combination with IBM Tivoli FastBack for remote office/branch office (ROBO) situations, and complemented with point-in-time and disk mirroring hardware capabilities such as IBM FlashCopy, Metro Mirror, and Global Mirror, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager can be an effective, scalable part of a complete Unified Recovery Management solution.
"Backup/recovery software that embeds data reduction technology can address all three of these factors handily. IBM TSM 6.1 now has native deduplication capabilities built into its Extended Edition (EE) as a no-cost option. After data is written to the primary disk pool, a deduplication operation can be scheduled to eliminate redundancy at the sub-file level. Data deduplication, as its name implies, identifies and eliminates redundant data.
TSM 6.1 also includes features that optimize TSM scalability and manageability to meet increasingly demanding service levels resulting from relentless data growth. The move from a proprietary back-end database to IBM DB2 improves scalability, availability, and performance without adding complexity; the DB2 database is automatically maintained and managed by TSM. IBM upgraded the monitoring and reporting capabilities to near real-time and completely redesigned the dashboard that provides visibility into the system. TSM and TSM EE include these enhanced monitoring and reporting capabilities at no cost."

Hi, I have a Takamine EAN20c which comes with a CT4B preamp.
I'll use it in a rock/pop band in very big venues at very loud monitoring levels (with a high risk of getting feedback). I mainly play hard strumming.
I'm thinking about the M1 or the new M80 and the VENUE DI.
I'm also wondering if i can take any advantage of the guitar built in system. Wood worth it mixing both signals. How?
Another question: Passive or active?
Thank you very much and sorry for my English. I'm from Argentina.

Actually, I didnt drink it. I mixed it with tea-tree oil to cleanse my face and mixed it for my hair moisturizer.

no citric acid added means no sourness. this is a terrific product; it tastes like sweet water and neutalizes sour tummy.
pretty watery
Posted by Reviewer2285251 on May 23, 2011
It doesn't taste like 100% aloe vera liquid, but rather like water with a little bit of aloe in it. I was able to stand drinking it, so it can't be all that bad. Okay product if available at a low price, but I wouldn't buy it again if the price is higher than regular bottled water.

I put this in a spray bottle to apply on the hard to reach rashes on my back. They have healed significantly after about a week's application. It also comes in a spray bottle, but this bottled kind is cheaper and of the same volume.
Tastes like water

Cardiac catheterization is one of the many pediatric cardiology services our children's heart experts offer to ensure your child's healthy future. Pediatric cardiac catheterization is a nonsurgical procedure that can be used in infants, children and teens to:
Our Catheterization Lab is located in the Nemours Cardiac Center in the Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in Wilmington, Del., ranked among the best children's hospitals in the country for pediatric cardiology and heart surgery by U.S. News & World Report. Our lab (sometimes called the "Cath Lab") has the most up-to-date equipment and is designed specifically to allow our heart center cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists and nurses to work side-by-side and perform complicated combined catheterization and surgical procedures when needed.
Many of the procedures we perform in this specialized catheterization lab would otherwise require open-heart surgery with much longer hospitalization and recovery times.
Catheterization in children is performed by inserting a thin plastic, flexible tube (called a "catheter") into an artery and vein, usually in the groin, and threading it through the bloodstream into the heart and its large blood vessels. There, the cardiologist measures pressures and blood oxygen levels and takes special moving X-rays (called "cinegrams") of the heart and blood vessels. The procedure can be performed in any age.
Because pediatric cardiac catheterization requires a child to lie very still, and there is discomfort associated with insertion of the catheters, the procedure is done with sedation or anesthesia. The Cardiac Center anesthesiologists work with our pediatric cardiac catheterization doctors every day, and will make sure that your child is comfortable throughout the procedure.
Diagnostic cardiac catheterization is a test that's done to determine the exact details of your child's heart and how it functions. It's sometimes performed in preparation for heart surgery or a catheter-based treatment (such as dilating a blood vessel or closing a hole in the heart) or to determine if more treatment is needed at all.
The pediatric cardiologist guides one or more catheters through the blood vessels and into the heart to take measurements of blood flow, pressure and oxygen levels in the heart chambers and large vessels close to the heart.
This helps the cardiologist to determine how the heart is functioning and how much blood is flowing through normal and abnormal connections. The catheter is guided using a special X-ray method called "fluoroscopy" (and occasionally ultrasound) to help the doctor figure out where the catheter should go. And moving pictures of the heart chambers and blood vessels are usually taken using a special X-ray dye known as "contrast," which is injected through the catheter.
Depending on your child's specific heart problem, it may be treatable during cardiac catheterization, making open-heart surgery unnecessary. Our specialists at the Nemours Cardiac Center have extensive experience in the nonsurgical treatment of heart disease.
An "interventional catheterization" (sometimes called "therapeutic catheterization") can be used to:
An interventional catheterization is performed like diagnostic catheterization (see description above) and allows the pediatric cardiologist to perform procedures such as:
In some complex cases, our heart surgeons, cardiologists and their teams work together to perform combined surgery and interventional catheterization procedures to achieve better results with less risk. By offering this kind of treatment option (typically called a "hybrid procedure"), we're improving the outlook for scores of children with complicated heart disease. And we're proud to be one of only a handful of centers in the United States where these combination treatment capabilities are available.
The operating room in the Nemours Cardiac Center (used exclusively for pediatric heart surgery) is located right next to our cardiac catheterization suite, which is fully equipped to perform hybrid procedures. With these facilities, our pediatric cardiology team can provide the best treatment for your child in a timely manner, whether it's surgery, interventional cardiac catheterization or both.
Pediatric cardiac catheterization is done under sedation with local anesthesia or under general anesthesia, depending on your child's age and condition.
The Nemours Cardiac Center has its own pediatric anesthesiologists, with the experience and skills required to provide specialized anesthesia for children with heart problems, from the minor to the very complex. Our pediatric cardiac anesthesiologists, who work only with heart patients in the Cardiac Center, provide anesthesia or deep sedation for diagnostic, interventional or hybrid cardiac catheterization procedures.
Anesthesia care begins prior to the procedure when you meet your child's anesthesiologist, who will prescribe an oral medication to relax your child and ease his or her separation from you into the catheterization suite. Most children receive anesthesia by a mask rather than an IV, so needles can be avoided until your child is under anesthesia. For catheterization, we use relatively short-acting anesthetics with few side effects. Some older patients prefer to receive sedation rather than anesthesia for their catheterization procedures — our anesthesiologists are there to make sure they're comfortable as well.
Because the anesthesiologists at the Nemours Cardiac Center often care for patients more than once, we get to know your child and your family, and we're able to determine which medications and strategies work best for your child's individual needs. We find that parents are often reassured to see a trusted familiar face as their child makes a trip to the catheterization suite.
After catheterization, your child will go to our recovery unit for special monitoring before returning to your private room. You may be at your child's recovery area bedside at all times. In many instances, your child may be discharged later the same day or the next morning. Typically, children are back to their normal selves within a few hours. And catheter-based treatments do not require extended recovery periods. Children can usually return to school after three days.
Although our team may know your child's heart, you know your child best. That's why we strive to always offer "family-centered care." That means we want you to be an active participant in the decision-making and we want to make sure you understand exactly what's going on at all times.

Throughout your family's journey with your child's heart condition, know that at the Nemours Cardiac Center we do whatever it takes to give your child the very best, most compassionate care possible. We'll be there to help your child and your family every step of the way.
So you'll understand what will happen during your child's cardiac catheterization, your doctor may give you a code to watch a video (produced by EmmiKids, an interactive Web-based tool that makes complex medical information easy to understand — even for our youngest patients).

Nominated, six times for an American Comedy Award, Dom Irrera's stand-up material was honed in a multi-generational Italian household in South Philadelphia with his mother, sister, grandmother, uncles and cousins all under one very big roof. A great-grandmother even lived across the street. Together there were three floors and four generations of family.
His first big break was his performance on Rodney Dangerfield's "Nothing Goes Right" comedy specials for HBO. In 1989 Irrera's own HBO "One Night Stand" earned him his first CableACE award for Best Stand-Up Comedy Special. In '95 he won a second CableACE for the Showtime stand-up series he hosted, "Full Frontal Comedy". That same year he received a second CableACE nomination in the writing category for his work on Comedy Central's animated series, "Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist". He also starred in a solo stand-up special for HBO in '92 titled "Command Performance".
He has performed on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", "The Late Show with David Letterman", "Late Night with Conan O'Brien", "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson", "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart", "The View", and has made several appearances on "Oprah". Recent credits include an all-new stand-up special titled "Comedy Central Presents", which aired on the cable network this past summer.
As an avid sports fan, he hosted four seasons of Comedy Central's irreverent football show, "Offsides", where he conducted hilarious on-the-field interviews with football greats. He also hosted Comedy Central's "Behind the Scenes at the American Comedy Awards: specials in '98 and '99.
Irrera was a series regular on the '98 Fox comedy "Damon" starring Damon Wayans and his guest-star credits include "Seinfeld" (he played an annoying prop comic needling Jerry in the memorable episode), "Becker", "Everybody Loves Raymond" and "King of Queens". In addition, Dom voices the character Ernie, the demolitions expert, on Nickelodeon's "Hey Arnold".
His film work includes a featured role in Robert Townsend's "Hollywood Shuffle", a cameo in the Coen Bros. Film, "The Big Lebowski", "The Fourth Tenor", starring old pal Rodney Dangerfield, and he played himself in the Rodney Dangerfield / Dom De Luise film, "The Godson".
Dom has performed at Montreal's prestigious "Just For Laughs Festival" and the "Cat Laughs Festival" in Kilkenny, Ireland (he's made more appearances at both festivals than any other American comic). He also has performed at the "Melbourne Comedy Festival" in Australia, and at "Edinburgh Festival's" Assembly Hall. It was there that he received the "Herald Award" for artistic excellence.
In 2010, Dom continued his quest for international DOM-ination with a 10-day run at the Sydney Comedy Festival and his first ever one-man show, "Plugged, Unplugged then Plugged Again" played to sold out audiences in Montreal.
When Flip Schultz was eight years old, he won a summer camp talent show by performing stand up comedy. There was never a doubt in his mind that comedy would be his future.
For a while he performed wherever he could find an audience, whether at a family get together, bar-mitzvahs, seniors center; he didn't care. He just wanted to make people laugh.
Finally, at 18, he braved a real comedy stage and won the open mic contest. For the next few years Flip performed at many comedy clubs (and bars) honing his craft, paying his dues and finding his comedic voice. And he still managed to earn his degree in theater.
As a writer, Flip has written many short plays, a musical, and was an on staff writer for Terry Fator & Friends Show in Las Vegas. Flip has also written a film called "Mr. Right Before" (© 2002) that was one of 250 scripts to make it into the second round of competition in HBO's Project Greenlight.
After leaving South Florida as a local favorite, Flip now lives in Los Angeles and tours clubs & colleges all over the country, and has quickly become a sought after comic in Scandinavia.

text: Eight In a Row! Pipers Sweep Their Own TournamentTired? Who gets tired when you are winning? For the second weekend in a row, the HU volleyball team swept the board at a tournament, winning all four matches in a span of 25 hours. This time, they did it in familiar surroundings. Three hours after defeating Crown, 3-0, the Pipers matched that score with a decision over Buena Vista at Hutton Arena to push their record-setting 2012 start to 8-0. That's also a school record for most consecutive wins and is only one shy of their entire 2011 total. As has often been the case in this skein, the Pipers had a balanced attack. Mackenzie Remick had 11 of Hamline's 41 kills for the match against BVU. The 6-2 soph also had five solo blocks. HU was again good defensively, committing just eight errors and finishing with a .320 attack percentage. Frankie Miller, who along with Steph Kaup, was named to the All-Tournament team, had nine kills. Sammie Miller dished out 22 assists with Becka Mozes adding 10. The Pipers have had 343 assists in their first eight matches, easily the top number in the MIAC. Lynsey Reimer had 20 digs with first-year player Jamie Rubbelke close behind with 16. Earlier in the day, Hamline took Crown by storm early, committing just two errors en route to a 25-7 decision in Game 1. They cut their miscue production in half in the second game, which produced a 25-13 verdict. After jumping to a huge lead in the third game, the Pipers had to hold off a late Crown rally for a 25-12 result to end the match. Sam Greeney-Hamlin led the balanced offense with eight kills with Frankie Miller and Remick adding six each. Sammie Miller had another solid game, handing the ball out. She finished with 18 assists .Reimer was her usual jack-in-the-box self, finishing with 17 digs for the match. The Pipers now turn their sights to MIAC play. Concordia,who tied for first place last season and went on to the NCAA D-III tournament, visits Hutton Arena on September 12 for 7:00 p.m. matchup. Hamline plays in a tournament at St. Catherine's next weekend. Crown boxscore Buena Vista boxscore Here is the complete All-Tournament Team: Steph Kaup, MB, Hamline Frankie Miller, OH, Hamline Mackenzie Suda, Setter, UW-River Falls Erin Green, MB, UW-River Falls Crystal Ziegler, UW-Lacrosse Kate Mikutowski, UW-Stout Chelsea Clayton, Buena Vista

I want to allow users to search for an event by title. I was thinking find_by_sql and a "like" operator in the where clause, but I'm guessing there might be a better more ROR way of doing this.
Anyone got tips for building search the right way the first time?

General Tendencies
Everyday Life / Profession: This Monday can be a day of awakening for many people. The Moon is in the prudent, clear-sighted and industrious sign of Virgo. The Sun, Mercury and Pluto are in realistic and responsible Capricorn. These are regulatory forces, and Mercury will continue on this path, while the Moon and also the Sun move on and change signs. Mars reaches Chiron and enters into a tense aspect with Saturn. This can lead to taking harsh measures that hurt. You can make interventions that appear surgical, which can serve healing. What is important is the goal that we have in mind. Venus follows Mars and would like to have a soothing effect. In the middle of the week there is a progressive push, when the Libra Moon, challenged by Pluto, conjoins Jupiter and opposes Uranus, while the Sun barely holds on to its hardened position in Capricorn. There is no use in regretting the past. Partnership / Love: Everyone is a victim of the situation in their own way. It is pointless to make your partner out to be the guilty party. As representatives of partners, Venus and Mars in Pisces can recognize this senselessness and should therefore make peace. Venus (the feminine) appears brighter in the sky, which is its nature because it is closer to the earth. Mars (the masculine), in turn, is a beautiful red. Each one is something special and does not need to hide.
Everyday Life / Profession: As long as Mars is in Pisces (ongoing until just before the end of the month), your ability to act is limited. If you accept that, life will be easier than if you try to rebel against it. Can you utilize this phase for your wellbeing? The time is favorable for therapeutic measures as well as reconciliations and harmonizing things with family. In many cases it is better to leave stories be and not rehash them. Assume that there is enough love and connection. In the first half of the week you find the calm and quiet you need for specific things, and can concentrate well. As of the middle of the week restlessness or dissatisfaction arise. You could also still do things completely differently… and then you do it promptly, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Partnership / Love: Venus and Mars in Pisces describe a hidden love. You do not have to prove anything to anyone, or tell anyone about your private life. No sooner have you grasped this, your past flashes up in which you were once considered a dream team. You can become that again, but it should not be so important any more. What is and remains important is that you feel present inwardly, and that you express your displeasure when it actually arises.
Everyday Life / Profession: The sign of Pisces, emotionally intense and tending towards chaos, is still being emphasized. On Monday, the Virgo Moon contrasts this trend with clear analysis, and Mercury in Capricorn ensures reasonable judgment into February. Mercury functions as a corrective and regulator when Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn do too much of their own thing in the name of progress. Mercury will be evocative of the responsibility that the makers of this world have towards those who feel powerless. Mercury has already crossed this path through Capricorn in December and in the meantime knows its way around quite well. It knows and utilizes the legal and contractual options. Mars in Pisces reaches Chiron and comes into tension with Saturn. If a gain is to be made on the backs of the weak, Mars knows what it has to do. Partnership / Love: Mars and Venus, our protagonists in love, gradually reach their closest convergence in Pisces. This is sufficient for mental connection, but hardly for physical intimacy. Perhaps the wounds are still too raw, perhaps one has become too cautious… Nothing can be forced now, but you can be silent together and simply be close to each other.
Everyday Life / Profession: Mercury is already moving a bit faster now, but is held in check by the sign of Capricorn, where it finds itself, and is compelled toward moderation and reason. In the flexible sign of Pisces, Mars, the other "mover" in the horoscope, has reached Chiron, which describes a sore point, and it comes into tension with Saturn, which again compels toward moderation and reason. Neither Mercury nor Mars can move so freely now as they would like. Norms, rules, laws, deadlines, borders and walls, and in some cases that is also a good thing. Anyone who does not experience Capricorn/Saturn as a hinderance will feel the positive sides: reason, caution, consideration, self-control, a sense of responsibility. Anyone who has never grown up also has a problem now, and could use this opportunity to learn how to be responsible for themselves. Partnership / Love: Your expectations of happiness (described by Jupiter in Libra) could be a bit exaggerated. Mars and Venus in Pisces make do with less "fortune" and orient themselves to the circumstances. But perhaps that is precisely the key to happiness? Through the connection to Saturn in Sagittarius, Jupiter can also learn what Venus and Mars already know. Everything has been there for a while internally, it is only the externals that are still missing.
Everyday Life / Profession: Mercury in Capricorn has the talent of using few words to put situations into a nutshell. So sentences now begin with "The fact is, that…" and we have the task of learning how to handle these facts. Mars in Pisces (conjunct Chiron and then in tense aspect with Saturn) indicates that at the moment we can do many things wrong and that doing nothing can be just as wrong. We must understand Saturn in Sagittarius, and hold ourselves to moral and ethical values. If we satisfy these requirements, we suddenly know what we must do. The tension with Saturn is a summons for thoughtful and courageous action. Toward the end of the week the Sun goes into Aquarius, taking up the progressive ideas of Uranus and Jupiter. Mars just needs another week before it will jump into Aries and give your life a new dynamic. If you grow beyond yourself now, you make it clear that this dynamic comes from you. Partnership / Love: Mars in Pisces must grapple with reality (Saturn), but at the same time it should hold on to its dreams (Sagittarius: oriented to the future, optimistic, eagerly anticipating) and do something so that the dreams have a realistic chance. You are being challenged to actively shape your relationship life. In case you have felt powerless for a long time, that must come to an end now. Your desires matter.
Everyday Life / Profession: Mars in Pisces should now implement the things that Mercury in Sagittarius and Capricorn has realized. That is quite a challenge for Mars (for us). We must risk something, follow our hearts. As a Leo you have a certain advantage because you are used to having your heart involved. The Sun is currently in the sign opposing Leo, putting a minor strain on you. A conscious affirmation of the task is necessary. Anyone who acts carelessly will feel the results immediately. Saturn in Sagittarius calls for conscious action and becomes a disciplinarian when people do not satisfy its demands. The Virgo Moon at the beginning of the week makes it clear that certain things should run differently and better than they have in the past. If you establish an increased alertness, you have understood this requirement. Partnership / Love: Mars in Pisces has to answer to Saturn in Sagittarius. Hopefully you have made a good choice and have not been carried away by any mistakes. In the last week there was a seductive situation… Mars and Venus, our love protagonists, play with a convergence, without actually coming close to each other. Flirting is encouraged, and people have very different ideas of what a "flirt" is. It is definitely a game.
Everyday Life / Profession: Mercury shows that you see yourself confirmed in many things. Common sense does not err. Now this still has to be implemented everywhere, and we start with Mars in Pisces, which Saturn in Sagittarius is taking by the reins, and should be ashamed of something, or put something back in order. The time of gimmicks and shortcuts it is over. Many people have to wake up and go about things more responsibly in the future, learn to assess dangers, become grownups. Virgos may also be included, but they have the advantage that reason is intrinsic to them, and they very quickly grasp what is important now. You could go about the tasks entirely differently: from your heart. Whoever has their heart in the right place automatically does the right thing. Partnership / Love: Mercury in Capricorn is good if you do not wish to lose yourself in fantasies, illusions and hopes. Love issues are overwhelming now, and you attempt to keep your emotions under control with your mind. Whether you also attempt to bring your partner under your control? You should think about that a bit before you toss out the idea as crazy. What is behind your desire to bring order to your relationship life?
Everyday Life / Profession: Through your everyday work life you come into connection with seductive worlds. That nourishes your longing for a better and more beautiful lifestyle. Jupiter in Libra feels spoken to when more "fortune" is dangled in front of it. An elevated lifestyle can mean happiness for you. If you are immune to such seductions, you express your need for harmony in interpersonal matters. In that case, you admire happy people who do not own much, flamboyant people who appear to have no worries, or people who are famous to a certain extent… This week idealistic images such as these are tested for their truthfulness. On closer examination castles in the air vanish and houses of cards collapse. Mercury in Capricorn would like to move about in reality and encounter people with whom reasonable projects can be started. Partnership / Love: You are now most likely to experience love when you can take care of someone. If you suddenly have no desire any more, you should examine this feeling. Why have you lost interest? Has an expectation gone unfulfilled? What did you expect or hope for? While you perhaps think that you have acted totally selflessly, your Self perks up and reminds you that you cannot simply ignore it.
Everyday Life / Profession: Mars and Mercury had indicated problems with moving forward or with the possibilities of expression that are now almost resolved. Direct Mercury in Capricorn has solid ground under its feet now, and is moving slowly, but surely. Many things have become clear to you. Going forward, perhaps you will proceed somewhat more reasonably and tactically, or maybe simply more modestly? Perhaps the time just was not right. The Virgo Moon on Monday has an admonishing and restraining character. The following Libra Moon, however, takes up the promising ideas of Uranus and Jupiter again and on Thursday will attempt to take their essence along, while everything that was hoped or dreamt for too much has to be dropped. With the Scorpio Moon, after Friday, you feel a bit exposed, thrown back on yourself. The Sun moves into Aquarius and announces a new attitude towards life. This saves the weekend. Partnership / Love: Three planets in Pisces make your feelings swell again and again. In love, you can feel powerless without considering it to be a bad thing, because at the same time you get new energy through it. If you do not have a partner now, you must be suffering. That is why, if you do have someone by your side who is ready to tough some things out with you, gratitude is definitely called for.
Everyday Life / Profession: With the Virgo Moon, this week begins on a very rational note. Mercury in Capricorn is now so close to reality, so sober, that you are happy about the Libra Moon, which after Wednesday reminds you that there are also pleasant things that promise a little lightness. The Scorpio Moon follows on Friday, which can allow us to become serious and contemplative again, but the many promises that Jupiter and Uranus concocted with each other linger on and can be taken up by the Aquarius Sun over the weekend. We need more bravery, more desire to experiment. Mercury comes into aspect with Neptune (which it already had twice in December), and this time it should be possible to actualize the positive side of this constellation – the visions of a better world. Partnership / Love: Your love life will soon get another push. That is why you can stay totally relaxed now and quietly make preparations. You could, for example, work a bit more on your appearance, pay more attention and consideration to your body and your clothes, and give them both more care. Try to like yourself. You have become very self-critical, brooding and solitary lately.
Everyday Life / Profession: This week begins with the Virgo Moon, which would like to show us a reasonable pathway. Mercury in Capricorn takes up this proposal and can feel confirmed in its conservative thinking. You should not rush anything. Saturn puts Mars in Pisces on a leash, the time of frivolousness (in case it was such a time for you) is over. And if someone else was frivolous, you will have to takeover Saturn's role, take the leash in your hand and lead this other person. You can come across as a bit authoritarian and mean-spirited, but you are not really like that. It is high time that you take control, and show strength and consequences. Because actually you are a good-natured person, which will become apparent again over the weekend. Stay on your path! Partnership / Love: Mars and Venus in Pisces have the drawback that many things stir in obscurity. The two planets of love approach each other, but they do not accomplish an actual union, rather they can at the most keep up appearances. Would you like to keep living this way? Mercury in Capricorn would prefer clarity. The planets of love still hesitate to face the truth as long as things stay relatively peaceful.
Everyday Life / Profession: Have you been moving about a bit dreamily lately? Have you been living in your own bubble? Mercury in Capricorn has just ensured an awakening and will continue to do so when it is necessary. Luckily for you, the Sun moves into Aquarius over the weekend and bit by bit will give you a new attitude toward life. You resurface and see clearly again, as though you had been in a dreamworld or foggy landscape. Sometimes a bit of courage is necessary to face the truth, recognize reality and leave illusions behind you. The sign of Pisces remains emphasized through Mars, Venus and Neptune, so that you can perhaps only gradually recognize the truth. Mercury in Capricorn fully understands that because it will soon come into contact with Neptune. Partnership / Love: You have recently taken the path of least resistance, and it felt good. Whether that can remain so? The tension between Mars and Saturn can be understood as a challenge to deal with the resistance and, if necessary, to fight. Perhaps it is your relationship situation that wakes you up? When the Sun reaches Aquarius, you can quite suddenly make yourself noticeable and stand up to your partner.
Everyday Life / Profession: The Virgo Moon and Mercury in Capricorn bring something into order, but at the same time remind you of your own responsibility. Saturn warns Mars in Pisces to stay on a clear path, to hold itself to moral guidelines, to behave like an adult. In case your life has just been an easygoing or harmless game, things get serious now. In case you have stayed out of certain issues because you believed that they did not concern you, you will have to take a stand now. Every day Venus in Pisces is losing its connection to Neptune and waking up from its dream. A connection to Pluto in Capricorn arises, you intuitively grasp that you cannot evade responsibility. Perhaps you are also too afraid of having done something wrong. Calmly check the facts. Partnership / Love: Do you have a clear division of roles in your relationship? What does that look like? What is your partner taking on? Could you take a task off their shoulders and make their life a bit easier? It looks as though you have to get active and carry your weight. If you do not grasp this on your own, your partner will have to make it clear to you. Roles have to be divided more fairly.

Officials mum over probe linked to Pats' Hernandez
NORTH ATTLEBOROUGH, Mass. - Authorities continue to investigate, but not talk about, the killing of a semi-pro football player whose body was found a mile from New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez.
A spokeswoman for the Bristol County district attorney's office said Sunday that officials are not releasing details. Spokeswoman Yasmina Serdarevic says officials also are not talking about the cause of death of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd, whose body was found on Monday. His death was ruled a homicide.
Hernandez has been questioned and his home has been searched as part of the police investigation into the Dorchester man's death.
State police officers and dogs searched Hernandez's North Attleboro home for more than three hours on Saturday.

Journal of Educational Computing Research, Vol. 29, No. 1, pp. 61 - 117, January, 2003.
|A year-long study of 131 second and third graders in 12 classrooms compared three daily 20-minute treatments. (a) 58 students in 6 classrooms used the 1999-2000 version of Project LISTEN's Reading Tutor, a computer program that uses automated speech recognition to listen to a child read aloud, and gives spoken and graphical assistance. Students took daily turns using one shared Reading Tutor in their classroom while the rest of their class received regular instruction. (b) 34 students in the other 6 classrooms were pulled out daily for one-on-one tutoring by certified teachers. To control for materials, the human tutors used the same set of stories as the Reading Tutor. (c) 39 students served as in-classroom controls, receiving regular instruction without tutoring. We compared students' pre- to post-test gains on the Word Identification, Word Attack, Word Comprehension, and Passage Comprehension subtests of the Woodcock Reading Mastery Test, and in oral reading fluency.
Surprisingly, the human-tutored group significantly outgained the Reading Tutor group only in Word Attack (main effects p<.02, effect size .55). Third graders in both the computer- and human-tutored conditions outgained the control group significantly in Word Comprehension (p<.02, respective effect sizes .56 and .72) and suggestively in Passage Comprehension (p=.14, respective effect sizes .48 and .34). No differences between groups on gains in Word Identification or fluency were significant. These results are consistent with an earlier study in which students who used the 1998 version of the Reading Tutor outgained their matched classmates in Passage Comprehension (p=.11, effect size .60), but not in Word Attack, Word Identification, or fluency.
To shed light on outcome differences between tutoring conditions and between individual human tutors, we compared process variables. Analysis of logs from all 6,080 human and computer tutoring sessions showed that human tutors included less rereading and more frequent writing than the Reading Tutor. Micro-analysis of 40 videotaped sessions showed that students who used the Reading Tutor spent considerable time waiting for it to respond, requested help more frequently, and picked easier stories when it was their turn. Human tutors corrected more errors, focussed more on individual letters, and provided assistance more interactively, for example getting students to sound out words rather than sounding out words themselves as the Reading Tutor did.
