ARTA directors absent in condemning locomotive vandalism
The opening sentence of the Guest Commentary by David Banks on Nov. 7 ("Train advocates, stop the attacks") is both interesting and ironic. Mr. Banks could be referring to several recent articles by North Country Public Radio reporter Brian Mann on the Adirondack Scenic Railroad, and online commentary that ensued by both rail and trail supporters. Banks seems to be angered, assuming rail contributors are using words such as "bully" and "delusional," and by the assertion that news reports by Mann are slanted.
I have a different view of what an "attack" looks like. I have watched these pages for several weeks, hoping to read firm but professional prose from the Adirondack Recreational Trail Advocates writers, denouncing the vandals who sabotaged an ASR locomotive just weeks before Mann's expose on the ASR. "Train advocates, stop the attacks" – is this all you have to say in this forum, where a constant monthly rotation of ARTA directors bloviates on schedule in the Guest Commentary column, repeating the same talking points promoting the destruction of an active rail corridor? Is it possible your letters published here helped fan the flames of extreme activism for your cause? "Train advocates, stop the attacks" – over verbs and adjectives, really?
Several of the news reports of vandalism also present the aggressive opposition to the Adirondack Scenic Railroad that your association is spearheading. Instead of answering this uncomfortable relationship in your commentary, you use the opportunity to take a jab with one sentence that scolds railroad supporters for their opinions in online forums concerning slanted reporting that select news organizations project about the Adirondack Scenic Railroad. In fact, in the referenced NCPR blog, no fewer than seven of 10 directors of ARTA contributed to the discussion. It is no secret that ARTA's treasurer and director, Lee Keet, is also a director of the North Country Public Radio Executive Council; Mr. Mann's use of the words "community" and "friends" to describe this relationship is interesting.
Ironically and notably absent by this time is an official public statement by your vocal directors condemning such vandalism and felonious acts to damage control circuitry that is primary safety equipment on a railroad locomotive.
Thankfully, the very skilled and conscientious ASR crew members, performing a safety check of the equipment, prevented this act of sabotage from injuring children and parents. Had the conspiracy been successful, many of these families could surely be neighbors of your members.
Said locomotive power is also a key component to the revenue-generating ability of the ASR, occurring just weeks before an important revenue weekend. The vandals clearly knew what they were doing. Did these cowards also know how important this income was to the ASR, especially since you attempt to make financial matters a point in your repeated attack on this productive tourist railroad operator? The posting of a weak disclaimer on a Facebook page, frequented mostly by ARTA supporters, does not pass muster when your organization uses this newspaper almost weekly to eschew the exaggerated potential of a dirt road path, using seriously flawed methodology in reporting economic impact analysis, among other questionable assertions.
Your commentary also lacks acknowledgement of the inflammatory remarks made by trail supporters and directors of the ARTA (whose commentaries have appeared in this column) on other online forums, including the ARTA Facebook page, shamefully suggesting the acts of vandalism to the ASR locomotive were self-inflicted, and many other caustic comments. By failing to address your own followers for the same actions, or worse, you present yourself and your organization as hypocritical. David Banks, shame on you.
You and fellow directors of the ARTA have engaged in a public relations war with the Adirondack Scenic Railroad, using this newspaper as a sounding board to gain support from the general public for your agenda to dismantle existing railroad assets under the guise of enhanced recreation. Over and over again, ARTA writers proselytize readers with columns falsely claiming inexpensive or almost cost-free conversion and trail maintenance. By subtle use of the word "visitor" to describe all trail users, your authors purposely mislead readers that hundreds of thousands of people will suddenly descend on your towns with new revenues. Rather than produce meaningful personal income data for citizens to consider for your plan, ARTA uses ginned-up user projections in a study bought and paid for to ensure the favorable outcome. Your citizens, weary from the lingering effects of years of economic recession, have accepted your teachings with trust, turning away from common sense and easily obtainable facts that illuminate your director's diatribes as deceptive scripture in their quest to return portions of the rail corridor to a wilderness preserve.
Mr. Banks, you missed an opportunity to take the high road. You missed an opportunity to speak for your organization here and decry the brainless act that could have resulted in injury to children and families from your community, enjoying a Halloween train ride. You missed an opportunity to display civility in a discourse that has become vile, and to have sympathy for neighbors you disagree with, doing good work in your region. Instead, you devote little more than 5 percent of your commentary to blasting the railroad supporters who speak out in frustration about misinformation and jaded reporting from the press. The remaining content of your scripted words are designed to continuously feed the itching ears of the public who have bought your story, and the political audience you hope to persuade.
David Banks and the ARTA "doth protest too much, methinks."
"For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths." (2 Timothy 4:3-4)

After the Portico update my battery life is noticeably worse. I just charged it to 100% about 30 minutes ago and it's down to 93% as I type this. WTF? I know it could be due to some background apps but I don't believe MS gave us a way to check/manage that. Go figure. I've soft reset it, I've drained the battery to 0% and recharged, all with no results.
You know what helped kick my battery into gear? I drained to zero, and every time I turned the phone back on it would have some ridiculous 16% charge left. So I did the back and forth of letting it die, turning it back on about three times and then I did a full charge. I also turned off that option in the advanced wifi settings to "send information about Wi-Fi connections to help discover nearby Wi-Fi".
I also try and do a healthy mix of both wireless charging and USB charging to get the battery used to the mix. I noticed my battery life doesn't last as long on a wireless charge so that's when I started mixing it up... it seems better so far.
Install a good battery app such as battery sense (Battery Sense | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)). That app monitors your battery history and records it, such as longest battery life, current % of battery drain, time to charge, etc. The app is also completely free with no ads... with an option to pay if you want to donate to the developer. My phone was consistently draining at over 6-8% an hour ON IDLE (i.e. Just sitting at my bedside for hours not being touched), and yes sometimes I would have it bad such as a 40% drain within 30 minutes (i.e. battery at 45%, suddenly I'm at a critical 5% and it needs to shut off soon).
The last several days I've been getting 24hour+ battery life so I must have done something right. My battery drain is now usually at anywhere between 0.6% to 1.9% now.. unless I've been heavily using the phone. All I did was do the "let it die and turn it on" cycle three times one time, let it die normally three separate times and charged to 100% using USB twice, wireless once, and I try to take my phone off the charger as soon as I notice it's at 100%. I usually charge via USB a few hours before bed, so I won't let it overcharge. Sometimes I've had to charge on wireless overnight, but if I happen to wake up for whatever reason and notice the charging light on my stand is off, I remove the phone.
Also, email syncing... I have two exchange accounts set to "sync items as they arrive" - my outlook.com email, and my school email. I heard that saves battery. My google mail is set to sync every 2 hours since it's not exchange. I suppose I could always forward google to outlook and could save some battery maybe, but I don't want the garbage from my gmail in my outlook inbox.
Thanks for the in-depth response. I was going to try each of your suggestions one by one so I could identify which was the cause.
It appears that turning off "send information about Wi-Fi connections to help discover nearby Wi-Fi" was at least a partial solution. A whole hour and only 2% loss.

My battery life is definitely worse after Portico

I have noticed that some days the battery drains much faster than others. I think some app or another gets stuck and causes the drain. Mine is typically fixed by a soft reset (which you mentioned you tried).
Are you in an area where you could be constantly switching from 2G/3G/4G, or losing coverage completely. This can cause battery drain in any device.
My fully wireless charge last night has my battery idling at a constant loss of 3% per hour (vs 0.6% to 1.9% after USB charge) so there's an obvious difference there.

I read through this thread yesterday but had nothing to report until oddly, today. I awoke to a dead phone this morning! My battery was around 60% last night when I put it down for the night and I don't keep Wi-Fi active when the phone is idle. I woke up and reached for my phone to check the time, but it was unresponsive when I pressed the sleep/wake button. Tried again. No response. I connected my regular charger and saw a red/dead battery/charging icon appear. How bizarre. I wasn't totally surprised, though, because my iPhone has had two incidents like that not too long ago, where the battery was around 50% and went dead by the time I got to my boyfriend's house (about an hour later).

Remember that Portico has the option to keep wi-fi always on. Make sure that is turned off.

I've had varying battery times after Portico. Some days it was spectacular, others not so good. I finally broke down and downloaded a battery discharge app Battery Discharger | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States) and ran it before going to bed. I would wait for the phone to shutdown, and try powering it up. I kept trying to power it up till absolutely nothing would happen when pressing the power button (it only took two or three tries).
Then I put on the USB charger, the screen showed a nice big and basic battery icon with a power plug on top graphic, then I went to bed. In the morning the phone was powered up. Since then, I've gotten some really nice battery life out of my 810.
Remember, these Lithium batteries really don't have any "memory" issues, but the charging/power code needs to be re-calibrated on a semi regular basis.
Now you don't need to completely discharge every time, just when you notice that you really aren't getting the battery life you're accustomed to. Maybe once a month, or every 2 months. Heavy users might do it more frequently.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (435 votes).
In short: very well organised half in lovely countryside with some tough hills but a semie fast route., well worth doing.Date of review: June 19, 2014
In short: Hilly, challenging and very picturesque course.Date of review: June 11, 2014
In short: Not another hill...In full: I have to admit to not enjoying this in the slightest. A 10am start in June is asking for trouble as it proved to a few people with the heat. Its hardly a shock for the weather to be 20 degrees in June. An earlier start would've been needed given the time of year. By the first drink stop I was dehydrated and all they dished out was a small plastic cup which due to running spilt everywhere as did a lot of runners.its a very unforgiving course. I did the Longleat Half a few months back which is also hilly but I enjoyed that a lot more. That was a 9am start which is what this race should be as well, given the elevation of the course and also the time of year. This course has long hills (not particularly steep but they chip away at your stamina) I most likely won't be doing this again as I did not enjoy it and I love running usually. The organisation for spectators was very good though and the running village is a bit of a fun day for all.Sorry about the rant. Things to improve this course... Bottled water please and an earlier start time. Date of review: June 11, 2014
In short: my favourite race......the ice lolly does it every time!In full: Love this race despite the hills! Often hot, always hilly but always friendly,well organised and good value ..... I will be back....again!Date of review: June 10, 2014
In full: Tough day at the office,like a lot of others strugled in the last two miles.Lots of water provided & help quickly available to runners overcome by the heat.the organisers showed that its planning not luck that makes this a great event.And yes there are still people that ipod rules don't apply to them.run again in 2015... Date of review: June 9, 2014
In short: As excellent as ever. The route is a real challenge with the late hills ready to catch the unwary. The weather was cruel to us though - far too hot!Date of review: June 9, 2014
In short: Very good day at St Albans yesterday; glorious weather, challenging course, supportive crowd and well organised. Will do again. And ice lolly at the end was wonderful!!!Date of review: June 9, 2014
In short: A lovely raceDate of review: June 9, 2014

Topic: AR Migrations and Model default values
Could some body tell me why when I try to insert a record with a model in a migration, that AR tries to specify values for fields that I haven't specified in the code. I've tried several different methods of AR record creation to no avail. It's trying to specify values for columns that are auto incremented by default. Here's an example of some code:
pset = PermissionSet.new
pset.owner_user_rtid = 10
pset.owner_record_rtid = 1
pset.owner_graph_rtid = t.rtid
pset.owner_permission_set_rtid = 1
pset.creator_rtid = 10
pset.created_at = 'now()'
pset.updater_rtid = 10
pset.updated_at = 'now()'
pset.label = r
And yet when this runs the statement comes out like this:
INSERT INTO "projects" ("rtid", "vtid", "owner_user_rtid", "owner_record_rtid", "owner_graph_rtid", "owner_permission_set_rtid", "creator_rtid", "created_at", "updater_rtid", "updated_at", "label", "logo", "website", "old_nid", "old_id", "public_license_id", "public") VALUES (NULL, NULL, 10, 1, 1, 1, 10, '2012-07-11 14:04:46.126260', 10, '2012-07-11 14:04:46.126260', 'Project Namey', NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, 1, NULL) RETURNING "project_id"
See how it specifies rtid and vtid which I did not set. These fields are set to NOT NULL in the DB which I suppose might be why it's trying to enforce it. I don't understand why it wont let the default value for these fields run which would be something like nextval(pgsql_sequence). It does respect the project_id field which is the primary key. It seems strange that it would enforce the NOT NULL rule with out respecting the default value.
Thanks for any insight,

For those with illness, disabilities or who can't be present to vote at the polls in the September recall election, emergency ballots will be available.
Absentee ballots will not be issued, Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder Gilbert "Bo" Ortiz said Tuesday.
Emergency ballots, in this special election, are similar to absentee in a general election, but Ortiz urged voters to cast their ballots at polling centers.
"If someone has an emergency and an elector who cannot vote and has to leave from their county, we are working on the forms you'll need to fill out and those will be available on our website soon enough," Ortiz said.
For people in health care facilities wanting to vote, Ortiz said, election judges from both political parties will deliver ballots.
For overseas and military voters, ballots will be mailed after Aug. 27th, when they've been certified, Secretary of State spokesman Andrew Cole said.
To date, Ortiz said the recall election has cost $235,000.
The election is on Sept. 10 but voters can start casting ballots starting Sept. 5.
Unregistered voters have up until 7 p.m. on Election Day to register and vote at polling centers.
For information on the recall and emergency ballots, visit pueblovotes.com.

I need to get back to graeme re: this. But, please, have a look and come up with any ideas. I'm thinking the Terra Folk workshop Jam.
feat. gorman, richold, danny, the gut buckets and more???
or should it be something else?
read and comment:
Hi Ryan
Sorry about the dealy in getting back to you about the
Terrafolk situation but so much has been happening and
I didn't want to come back to you until I had definite
solutions to what is happening.
Now that I do I need to give you the lowdown!
Right, firstly, as you probably know we are doing a
gig at the Queen's Hall on Friday 11th May. Due to our
contract with the Queen's Hall we are not allowed to
play another gig within 40 miles of that venue within
2 months of the date of performance. So that has put
the lid on that.
BUT, the good news is that the band would be well up
for your other suggestion - the workshop.
They said they can certainly do a special one-off
workshop with musicians at the FOrest Cafe if you
would like to organise it.
The workshop would be for 3 hours and it is up to you
how much you would charge the musicians and to your
discretion how much to give to Terrafolk.
The workshop can be held in the evening at the Forest
Cafe on Wednesday 9th May.
What do you think?
Best wishes

Home Underinsured 10/16/11
A freak windstorm toppled a huge tree onto this house recently, damaging the roof, siding, and interior. The homeowner is how much his insurance will cover. "There is so much damage done. You have no clue really what the internal damage is." Consumer Reports Money Adviser says for peace of mind it's crucial to review your policy. "Damage by high winds may be subject to a steeper deductible than other types of damage. And your insurance may not cover earthquakes, or landslides, or floods at all."4127934
Consumer Reports advises looking into federal flood-insurance programs, even if you live in a low-risk area. Tobie Stanger, "It's very important to make sure that you've covered the house for the full replacement value in case you have a total loss. But don't use the sales price as a measure. These days that might not be enough to cover rebuilding." For just a few dollars on the website AccuCoverage, you can figure out a realistic replacement estimate yourself. But be sure to include the cost of replacing any custom items like tiles, special flooring, and fixtures. Tobie Stanger, "Choosing an insurance company requires research, not just to find the best price but also to check out the financial health of the company." To make sure the company is solvent and will be able to pay your claim, check the website the-street-dot-com-forward-slash-insurers. Stick with companies rated "A" or "B."

Bills Back in Town
So here's my question: If more than 30 Bills made the effort to come back to Western New York this week to conduct workouts as a team, where's the rest of the team?
I have long been of the belief that all the off-season work NFL teams do is a ridiculous bunch of hooey. You, or Chan Gailey, or Bill Belichick, will never convince me that NFL teams need all those organized team activities and mini-camps and whatever other term you want to use for what essentially is practice. It's micro-managing to the 'nth degree.
Vince Lombardi was the ultimate micro-manager, but he didn't need to have his Packers in Green Bay nine months out of the year, and he still seemed to win his fair share of NFL championships.
Before you beat me up over the fact that it's a different game now than it was then, I acknowledge that. Still, all that 7-on-7 nonsense in March is not going to help a team win games in September and October. No way.
When I started covering the Bills in 1990, they used to run a three-day rookie mini-camp the week after the draft, and a three-day full-squad mini camp in May. That was it. Once the season ended – which back then was in January when the Bills were relevant – the players were gone. There were no OTAs, nor very little organized team conditioning stuff at the stadium. The players went on with their lives, healed their bruised bodies, took care of their conditioning on their own, and came to training camp at Fredonia State in mid-July ready to work their tails off.
Now, with that rant out of the way, let me get back to my original question. I do think the preponderance of off-season workouts is a waste of time, but clearly, 21st-century NFL teams think they are necessary, and I believe the players think they are necessary to do all this off-season work. So, I ask again, where were the rest of the Bills?
If it meant enough for those 30 or so guys to come back to town and get together, what about the other guys? No surprise that leaders such as Ryan Fitzpatrick, Lee Evans, George Wilson, Chris Kelsay and Fred Jackson were there. And while I rip him every chance I get, I have to give props to Aaron Maybin who had the common sense to show up, which is an indication that he realizes his spot on the roster is tenuous at best.
One notable absence: Maybin's fellow Maryland buddy, Shawne Merriman. This guy has practiced with the Bills all of 20 minutes since joining the team last mid-season. It might have been a good idea for him to at least show up and introduce himself this week. Maybe he will today, or later in the week, as the Bills plan to work at Sahlens Sports Park in Elma until Thursday.
It will be interesting to see if Merriman, or anyone else, decided to join the workouts. If there is a season, these sessions aren't going to make a difference in the won-loss column, but they could promote team unity, and that's never a bad thing.

HP has delivered more than $620 million worth of products and services to federal government agencies from 1992-2007 through the previous NASA SEWP II and SEWP III contracts.
"As the federal government looks to maximize investments, reduce costs and increase efficiencies, it needs a technology partner that delivers products and complete solutions that operate seamlessly in complex IT environments," said Jack Novia, managing director and senior vice president, Technology Solutions Group – Americas, HP. "With this NASA SEWP IV contract, HP is pleased to extend our partnership with federal government agencies and help them accomplish their mission goals."
A beneficiary of the move may be Foxconn Electronics, as, according to some Taiwan sources, HP was looking forward a supplier, who would make chassis and other components for both desktops and notebooks in order to cut-down the costs. One of a few companies who comply to HP's requirements is Hon Hai Precision Industry (Foxconn's parent company).
The contract may mean a substantial blow for Dell Inc., the No. 2 maker of computers.

As great as I thought it would be!
Posted by doppelganger on Apr 12, 2013
One of my favourite youtube chefs foodwishes' chef john uses these occasionally. I live in Greece and is a really difficult product to find. So I order it via iHerb. Try oven-roasted onion rings with those.. Here's the recipe Ingredients: 2 egg whites 2 tbsp milk pinch of cayenne 1 yellow onion, sliced, separated into 1/2-in thick rings 1/2 cup flour, seasoned w/ salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste 3 to 4 cups Panko vegetable oil spray I guess you know the drill. Just try it.. It's as good if not better than the fried ones.

Topic: Problem with mongrel_cluster
I'm trying to follow Coda Hale's Apache, Mongrel and Capistrano installation guide to deploy my app to a public/beta server.
However I'm bumping into a problem at a rather early stage:
[karse:~] nielsene% mongrel_rails cluster::configure -e production -p 8000 -a 127.0.0.1 -N 3 -c /Users/nielsene/ruby-work/compinabox
!!! Path to config file not valid: config/mongrel_cluster.yml
cluster::configure reported an error. Use mongrel_rails cluster::configure -h to get help.
The path listed after the -c is correct. I don't understand why its unable to find the path to the config file to create it, etc. I assume I'm missing something trivial, but I can't see it....

iHerb 顾客评论
节省: ¥6.16 (8 %折扣)
Reviewer2005087发表于 Nov 17, 2013
Let's just say, it's one of those products where it takes restraint not to eat the whole product at once. Similar to the Navitas snacks, this mix induces you to eat more. With a product this delicious, you really have to set a habit with it, such as eating a scoop just before lunch, etc. Otherwise the pleasure of the palate is its own draw, not to mention the well-being buzz that will permeate you. The flavors of the four ingredients is a medley of texture (crunch and chewiness) and flavor (tang and nuttiness) that makes it downright deletable. Just four ingredients specially selected by the master herbalist to deliver scrumptious flavor and satisfaction. The pine nuts add an undercurrent that pulls the other flavors together and the stickiness of the goji makes it last longer so more flavors are released and combined. It's such a fine sequence! When people measure what a true food is, this product should be the standard because after eating this mix, you will feel good physically and mentally. Yes, it is that good. It tastes as if Nature herself were serving her own meal according to both simplicity and dynamism. Plus, if you take other Dragon Herb products, you know that the integrity of the brand is reliable.
Give's you a nice 'full' and stable energy
Reviewer2488579发表于 Feb 11, 2013
I was a little skeptical before ordering it because of the price, but one pound of this is actually a lot, it'll take you at least a week to go through it, for my it lasted 2 weeks. You'll notice a nice glow in your face and a certain calm and peace. Highly recommended to anyone.
Reviewer1395333发表于 Mar 04, 2011
Absolutely love the longan fruit in this product -it is so delicious with the walnuts. The goji berries I just took out and soaked and added to my smoothies.
Great snack!
celestialleo发表于 Nov 13, 2010
This is a truly delicious and nutritious energy food. Never had peeled walnuts before and they taste much less bitter than the usual. Love the goji and longan berry combination!
Very tasty and satisfying
Reviewer1745270发表于 Dec 12, 2010
This trail mix is very tasty and nutritious. The walnuts are peeled which improves the taste a lot. The longan and goji are great too. Doesn't last long which is the only downside.

My batch seemed a little short on pine nuts.
Reviewer3292342发表于 May 23, 2012
They don't say that you get an equal amount of pine nuts, but my pound of Hermit's mix didn't seem to have an ounce of pine nuts. Also, the pine nuts and one of the fruits were mostly nearer the bottom of the pack. The walnuts and the other fruit were mostly near the top.
delicious and nutritious

Carbon dioxide is spewing into the atmosphere faster than any model anticipated.Pole suggest that the Arctic Ocean could be essentially ice-free in summer within two decades or even less — at least 20 years ahead of the most pessimistic AR4 predictions. West Antarctica, whose ice cap is bigger than Greenland's, is warming up faster than anyone thought, and a major ice stream in West Antarctica — the Pine Island Glacier — is sliding into the sea at the astonishing rate of two miles a year, adding its mass to steadily rising global sea levels.
One major source of uncertainty is what you assume about the growth of anthropogenic CO2.for Atmospheric Research who specializes in sea ice. "They're incomplete — obviously, because they're models," she says. "You can't include all the gory details." Still, she says, "the fact that all of the models show a slower rate of melting than we actually see is an eye-opener. Clearly we're missing something." Most models, for example, don't include the effects of soot deposition from faraway smokestacks, and tailpipes, which can darken ice and make it melt more quickly. "How important that might be isn't entirely clear," she says.
Forecasts will be adjusted, only to be challenged as the physical world follows with more surprises.Atmospheric Administration, atmospheric CO2 increased at a rate of 2.2 ppm (parts per million) in 2007, compared with an average of 2 ppm per year from 2000-2007, and 1.5 ppm in the 1990s. Because feedback mechanisms have only lately been kicking in, most of that has to do with increased burning of fossil fuels. The trend isn't surprising, given the growth of industry in India and China; what's worrisome is that its magnitude is greater than that of the most fuel-intensive of the models IPCC uses in forecasting future warming.

Nervous system disorder affects motor skills and behavioral responses
The Sensory Processing Disorder Foundation explains sensory processing as "the way the nervous system receives messages from the senses and turns them into appropriate motor and behavioral responses." Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), formerly known as Sensory Integration Dysfunction, occurs "when sensory signals don't get organized into appropriate responses."
Signs of SPD. Sensory Processing Disorder is most commonly diagnosed in children. Symptoms may include an adverse reaction to touch, no response to hot or cold sensations, or a lack of good posture and motor skills. Keep in mind the following if you suspect that you or someone you care for has SPD:Most individuals who have the disorder do not experience all the symptoms. Those with the disorder may not experience difficulties every day. Inconsistency is a hallmark of neurological disorders. The disorder manifests itself in both oversensitivity and undersensitivity.
Emotional impact of SPD. Because SPD often affects motor skills and other processes necessary for success in school and life, many children with the disorder become isolated or even depressed. The resulting lack of self-esteem can lead to an inability to make friends, fit into a group and to be labeled as clumsy, uncooperative, belligerent, disruptive or out of control.
Causes of SPD. As with many neurological disorders, the exact cause of SPD has yet to be discovered. Researchers have concluded that the disorder is most likely inherited and the cause is genetic. There may also be a connection between birth and prenatal complications and SPD. Odds are that SPD results from a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
Treatment of SPD. There is no correlation between IQ and SPD. Those with the disorder are as likely to be as intelligent as their peers, but because their brain functions differently, it is necessary to develop strategies for processing information differently. The earlier SPD is diagnosed, the better. Once diagnosed with SPD, the patient would most likely work with an occupational therapist in a sensory rich environment with a goal of helping the patient respond to sensation in an active, meaningful and fun way.

RGH purchases new equipment
January 31, 2012
The Roosevelt General Hospital Auxiliary recently purchased several pieces of physical therapy equipment for RGH Rehab Services. This equipment will enhance patient care by allowing the therapists to expand treatment exercises, according to a hospital press release.
An overhead pulley system will be used to address upper extremity, trunk and lower extremity instability factors related to S/P surgery, accident or age changes.
The Rebounder will be used to address weak core stability factors secondary to a shoulder injury or a back injury.
"We have supported Roosevelt General Hospital consistently over the past 10 years," said Sidney Phillips, of the RGH Auxiliary. "The auxiliary spent approximately $3,500 to purchase this equipment for the physical therapy department at RGH and we are proud to support this great hospital."

Frequently Asked Questions
Will They work with bedliners?
Yes, but there are a few simple additional steps that need to take place to make them compatible. If you own an under the rail liner, you need a couple small rubber shims to assist the lifting of the tonneau over the tailgate protector. Over the rail bedliners need to be notched out in order for the tonneau clamps to go through.
Will I be able to open and close my tailgate?
YES, there is no restriction caused by the tonneau.
What can I clean my Trifecta with?
We recommend using soapy water with a medium bristle brush. Extang also makes a tonno cleaner that is ideal for the cleansing process.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: An Irrational Stock Market
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- There are exceptions to every rule, Jim Cramer told his "Mad Money" TV show viewers Wednesday. When it comes to the stock market, everything is most definitely not rational.
Cramer said the industrial stocks continue to soar despite having nothing new to say. Meanwhile, Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) saw its shares barely dinged despite cutting estimates.
In the tech sector, investors continue to pile into stocks like Amazon.com (AMZN) and LinkedIn (LNKD) , two stocks that don't seem to be constrained by traditional metrics, said Cramer.
And then there's Apple (AAPL) , a stock Cramer owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS. Apple's in-line results were seen as a disappointment, said Cramer, sending its shares down 8% in after-hours trading.
Despite having $137 billion in cash and pretty good earnings, the markets were focused on gross margins, which came in below consensus at 38.6%. The number of iPhones sold was also a tad below what Wall Street was expecting. Are sellers just taking profits or are they worn down by the stocks' total lack of momentum?
Cramer said it doesn't matter what the reason, but investors need to remove the emotions from Apple and realize that it's just another stock, one that will likely deliver decent, but not spectacular, earnings from here on out. Apple has a ton of potential, he said, but under Tim Cook we have yet to see any blockbuster new products that don't cannibalize existing ones.
"Don't let this one stock blind you to the other opportunities the market is offering," Cramer concluded.
Know Your IPO
In the "Know Your IPO" segment, Cramer highlighted Zoetis, the animal health division of Pfizer (PFE) , which is expected to offer 86.1 million shares next week between $22 and $25 a share.
Cramer said that Zoeits plays into the $22 billion animal health market, in which it currently has a 19% share. The new company makes everything from vaccines to feed additives and will derive 65% of its revenue from livestock and the remaining 35% from horses and household pets.
Cramer noted that unlike the human health-care market, most animal patient bills are paid out of pocket. When it comes to drugs and vaccines, there is far less generic competition. Given the stock's expected valuation and growth rate of 6%, Cramer said he expects Zoetis to have 20% upside from its IPO.
So should investors sell Pfizer to buy Zoetis? Cramer said absolutely not! Pfizer will retain 80% of Zoetis after the IPO and will be using the proceeds to reward shareholders with a sizable stock buyback. In addition, the split companies will both receive higher market valuations as individual companies are easier for analysts to value.

St. Rose of Lima hosts annual spaghetti dinner Sunday
FORESTVILLE – Once again, the parishioners of St. Rose of Lima are ready to serve their annual spaghetti dinner to the public. The dinner will be held this Sunday in the Fr. Gerald Sheehan Hall at 11 Center St., Forestville, from noon to 5 p.m. The community is welcome to attend.
The church's traditional homemade sauce will be served with homemade meatballs. Fresh green salad, Italian bread, ice cream and Italian cookies for dessert will complete the menu. Last year, alfredo sauce was added to the menu for those who would prefer a slightly different meal. As it was a success, it will be offered again this year. The cost remains the same as prior years – adults, $8, and children, $4.
Scott Gilman and John Rogers are co-chairmen of this year's affair. The men and women of the parish assist Gilman in preparing the meatballs, but the men are masters of the sauce.
Spaghetti dinners are very popular as fundraisers for many benefits and organizations, as pasta is popular as well. The St Rose Church, member of the Faith Community of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, will use this dinner to defray costs for and maintenance of the church and grounds.
February is an unpredictable month when it comes to the weather but it was chosen years ago as a good month to offer spaghetti, as it does not conflict with the church's other events. These include the chicken and biscuit dinner in April, the Fall Festival pork chop dinner in October, and the chicken barbecue and Lawn Fete, which will be held this year on Aug. 4. Although Sunday may be cold outside, the roads will be open and the friendly people at St. Rose will warm up patrons' days.

I am using a new McIntyre transducer pickup on a Sitar.
I have been running it through a very old (like 20 years!) DOD 16 Band Graphic EQ into an equally old Fender Princeton Chorus Amp.
The overall sound was good, but the old equipment but the EQ had a small amount of noise and I was hoping to improve the sound with less noise by replacing the old EQ.
The McIntyre recommends use of the Para DI, as does the website I bought the McIntyre from.
One problem I have run into with the Para DI, though is that it get a very loud ugly "crunchy" distortion sound from the "Chikari" strings. These are three high pitched strings used for rhythm on the Sitar.
I tried turning down the treble but it doesn't eliminate the distortion and dulls the main playing string instead. I also tried turning down the gain, but I would pretty much need to turn it off to get rid of the crunchy sounds.
I also tried playing around with the Presence control, since the manual mentions it can be useful to get rid of hissing noises, even though this isn't really a hiss. But that doesn't help with the chikari crunch either.
The manual says that the "notch" control can be used for EQ, so I tried that as well. But I hear no real difference whatever frequency I set it to or whether I boost or cut it.
The crunch is definitely from the Para DI... if I unplug the McIntyre from the Para DI and plug directly into the amp, the "chikari crunch" goes away.
Any ideas what I can do? Or is the Para DI just not capable of handling multiple loud high-pitched notes at the same time?
I am assuming this isn't true, and its just a matter of some combination of controls -- but I just haven't been able to figure it out.

Welcome to VintageTexas.com - In my blog,
I highlight my rants and raves, and share my
experiences as I taste and talk my way
around Texas. I also highlight my
experiences in other wine regions in the
USA and around the world that help put the
Texas wine experience in context with the
global wine experience.
The dry sandy soils of Spain, the high arid
plains of the Argentine Mendoza, and the
limestone ledges of southern France all
have elements common to Texas terroir.
Hopefully, my experiences will be interesting
and useful to Texas wine producers and
consumers, and visitors that want to come to
Texas to encounter our local wines. In the
final analysis, I hope to better define the
mysterious terroir of Texas.
Russ Kane
With wine now made in all fifty states, the
gift of the gods is on the way to becoming a
national drink. But each state has unique
growing situations, and it's not yet certain
where truly great American wine will be
produced. In
The Wineslinger Chronicles,
Russ Kane tells the tale of Texas wine in an
educational, friendly style. . . . So sit back
and enjoy both Texas wines and Kane's
book. —

Rated 5 out of 5�by mfamily Awesome bat Great Product for first time wood bat youth player. August 30, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by ajaxmonster2 Decent I thought that this bat was pretty good overall. When I was 12, I purchased this bat and had some very good swings due to the equal weight distribution. Since it was my first wood bat, it was very easy for me to adjust and be able to get good contact. The only problem with the bat is that it broke on a change-up and the hit was almost on the sweet spot. Not just a crack, a clean break. I would buy this bat for kids transitioning to the wood bat, but not farther than that, as it can break somewhat easily. June 8, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by m5roller Awesome My 10u player loves wood bats. This one is greatness, totally worth the extra price. Especially good for practice (extra weight, small barrel forces good swings; lighter big barrels are like cheating afterward). For those of you complaining about breakage, please learn to orientate the bat (label up or down only please). My player has a strong swing, no issues. August 6, 2015

Power Authority Selects Watertown Firm to Manage St. Lawrence-FDR Improvements
March 30, 2004
ALBANY—New York Power Authority trustees, meeting here Tuesday, selected Bernier Carr and Associates PC of Watertown to perform construction management services for recreation and environmental improvements that are part of NYPA's new federal license for the St. Lawrence-Franklin D. Roosevelt Power Project in Massena.
"We are committed to an ambitious and wide-ranging series of improvements in the North Country," said Louis P. Ciminelli, chairman of the Power Authority. "That is why I am delighted that we have a first-rate firm, thoroughly familiar with the area, to oversee the work that goes into those improvements."
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued the new 50-year license for the project on Oct. 23, 2003 and Power Authority trustees accepted it a month later. In December 2003, the trustees authorized spending $169 million to comply with the new license provisions. This included the costs of construction management.
Under the new license, the Power Authority is required to build new and rehabilitate existing recreational facilities as well as construct habitat improvement projects. This includes a substantial rehabilitation of the Wilson Hill Wildlife Management Area. The Power Authority has proposed that the work begin this year and conclude by 2009. The contract with Bernier Carr will run through 2007 with options for extensions through 2009.

Objective: To encourage players to take on opponents in 1v1 situations
The set up: Magic Rectangle - The overall pitch size is 40x30 with the central third being 16 yards long.
Ball Work - This takes place in the central rectangle, players are asked to go and stand along the line of yellow and red cones or the orange and blue cones - there choice. Players are then asked to dribble the ball across to the opposite line of cones performing various feints or change of direction moves that the coach has chosen from this blog post, at least once.
Players work back and forwards between the lines of cones and change to the next skill on the coaches request. Allow them at least 4 or 5 attempts at each skill.before changing
Line Soccer 1v1 - Split players into pairs, if you have an odd number have odd number make a group of 3 which consists of one stronger player and two less developed ones. the two less developed ones play at the same time, when in defending or attacking. Players stand on a goal line opposite each other. Get them to imagine they are in game, they have got the ball in midfield and they need to beat the opponent in front of them by using a change of direction or feint.
Playing 1v1 they are trying to beat their opponent and dribble across the line of cones their opponent started at.to get a point.
Line Soccer Overload - This is just a simple progression of the previous activity. Using the middle and the attacking third play 2v1 or 3v2 through two of the channels/rectangles.. The pitch is deliberately long and narrow to produce more 1v1 opportunities and options for the player in possession to dribble when there is space.
Line Soccer – The players are then split into two teams, 4v4, 5x5 or 6v5, whatever suits your group. The four central cones and the goals used for the previous drill are removed.
The game is played the same as the previous activity, but with the use of the whole pitch and the support of extra players, but no goalkeepers. Players score goals for getting the ball across the end line, if they can dribble the ball into the goal they get an extra point.

The claim hides more than it reveals, including the failings of the UN and the international community.since we know that the indicator used to measure it has too many limitations." He called the UN claim "a drastic overestimate."
The big question is whether an "improved" water source is safe. The answer is not very."protected" hand-dug wells, which were being counted as safe sources of drinking water, was actually contaminated — so was about a third of the water from "protected" springs and drilled wells. As a result, in Nigeria and Ethiopia, two of Africa's most populous countries, only about 70 percent of the "improved" sources provided safe drinking water, the assessment found; and in Ethiopia, only 27 percent of the population had access to safe drinking water, rather than the 38 percent that had been claimed.

But she said the household surveys used to measure access to improved water would not include broken wells because people would not mention them. The anonymous UN source disagreed.

Closing clinic was a mistake
To the editor:
This past week, our community lost a local business that provided medication to many patients that relied on their services.
I am talking about Northern Specialty Health, what once was our community's medical marijuana dispensary.
This occurred due to a local citizen filing a complaint with the authorities, forcing the closure of the business.
This is one of the most selfish acts a person could do to a community. Northern Specialty Health was a respectable establishment that strived to provide the best quality of medicine for a variety of ailments.
Closing a legitimately running dispensary creates more problems than one may have thought it would fix.
No longer can patients get reliable and quality medication as others get from the pharmacy, these patients are instead turned towards either care takers or the black market.
The latter of which can result in questionable medication that one cannot feel comfortable purchasing.
I firmly believe that closing this establishment was a mistake on the local community and is a step backwards for recognizing the medicinal values of marijuana.

2006 Mandarin Tea Room Yiwu
I used about half the 12 gram sample so about 6 grams, and I am some what befuddled, because I quite liked this tea though I am a bit unsure exactly why.
Great Mouth feel
Great after taste
nice sweetness, both over all and in the finish.
Being about 4 years old it was quite nice in the sense that it lost a lot of the bitterness that people will find in the Essence of Tea Cakes (not bad, just a lot younger), and its showing some signs of good tastes developing.
Great Qi.
While certain flavors did shine through at times, for the most part it seemed a little bland.
The few leaves I picked up and felt, felt incredibly thin and flimsy. Not really sure if that is typical for that age, but typically young puerh leaves are quite thick and almost leathery after a few brews.
Like I said I really liked this tea, and there are more pros than cons, but the Con seems like it should be a major negative mark but some how with this tea I did not mind that much.

I'm astounded. I just don't understand why a recruit who is good enough for a D1 scolarship would pick PSU this year. Even if you like the school and the coaches. There has to be so many other opportunities and locations where you won't have to deal with what happened there.
I can see it if you live in PA, your parents are alumni, you grew up a PSU freak, or something...

The Heart of the Matter - Page 3
Sproston back home between her frequent international trips. Photo by Justin Bailie.
When she's home, her normal routine consists of walking out her front door to run in Forest park, a network of more than 80 miles of trail just minutes away. She tries to clock between 50 and 60 miles per week, but isn't always successful.
"My highest mileage training weeks are only ever around 70 miles," Sproston says, rolling her beer bottle between her hands. "I can rarely make a concrete training plan due to my travel schedule, but sometimes I'm able to combine work trips with races."
At 5'9" she has a long stride that eats up miles, and her natural athletic ability helps keep her running hard even when her training is sporadic. She ran cross country for Luther college in Iowa. Ten years later, she moved to Washington, D.C., and became a member of the Virginia Happy Trails running club. The group launched her into trail running and ultras. The more she ran on the trails, the more she realized she favored long distances. If her 2012 finish at the World championships is any indication, the 100K might be Sproston's ideal distance.
"I started running when I was in seventh grade," she says. "I went out for track and ran the mile because I was too slow to sprint."
Sproston focuses primarily on distances 50 miles and longer, though she will jump into the occasional shorter race usually because either the company or the costumes can't be beat.
"Running has always centered me," she says. "I want to run well, but the pressure that can come with racing isn't something I enjoy. I've learned that the longer a race is, the less it usually feels like racing."

DirecTV launches multi-room viewing DVR
DirecTV has just officially rolled out its multi-room DVR across the country. The new service, called Whole Home DVR, lets users record and watch multiple shows in multiple rooms with one DVR unit.
Whole Home DVR works by using a single DVR unit and a series of receiver units to distribute feeds from the DVR to multiple HDTVs. The DVR can record two shows at once while displaying two more, and the system can handle up to 15 HD receivers. DirecTV hasn't priced the HD receivers yet, but the service itself costs only $3 per month. The service is now currently available to new and existing DirecTV customers.

text: Protaspis (pro-tass-piss) A very common but little studied genus of gliding flagellates, two flagella inserted one in front of the other in a shallow ventral depression near the front of the cell. One flagellum trails behind the cell, one sweeps in front of the cell. There are caps (dictyosomes?) over the nucleus and these can be seen as two lines leading away from the site of flagellar insertion. Protaspis can produce pseudopodia and may eat diatoms. This individual has starchy inclusions. Phase contrast.
