"Goldtiger" order it today
just read Goldtiger, and a mistery in our family may have just been solved, for as long as i can remember a panel of original art had hung in my dads study, when I asked about the origin of the piece, I was told, "son, never meet your hero's" and that was that!
I think now (through the publication of goldtiger) I understand the origin of the piece and it my very well be the work of Antonio Barreti although their is no signature on the piece or it might be just some wannabe hack trying to promote him self through the genius of a master!

I finally went to the doctor today after a few months of really terrible depression and mood swings that seemed related to my periods/cycles and she seems pretty sure I have premenstrual dysphoric disorder.
My problem is I'm TTC #2 and have been trying for almost 2 years now and I'm already having trouble trying not to get stressed about TTC without PMDD on top of that. When the PMDD hits me, I feel like giving up TTC and even like I couldn't possibly cope with having another baby but as soon as it passes, I'm back to desperately wanting another baby and wondering how I could feel so bad that I wanted to stop trying.
Is anyone else dealing with PMDD and TTC?? How are you coping with it? My doctor has suggested to start with trying B vitamins and evening primrose oil and see if that helps. I have taken the B vitamins a little bit over the past few months but not very diligently so I'm not sure if they'll help or not.
I just don't know how much longer I can cope with the severe depression...it totally makes me useless for the couple of weeks which is really hard when you have a toddler and husband to look after.

Chelsea 0 Sunderland 3
Chelsea lost their unbeaten home league record with a shock 3-0 defeat by Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.
Not since March had the West London club conceded at home in the Barclays Premier League, but Steve Bruce's side, who had not won away this season, took all three points with goals from Nedum Onuoha, Asamoah Gyan and Danny Welbeck.
The result leaves Carlo Ancelotti's team two points clear of Arsenal, who beat Everton at Goodison Park eariler today, at the top of league with Manchester United another point behind in third.
John Terry, the Chelsea captain, was ruled out through injury

Surgery or Electromagnetic shock thereapy? Results?
Posted by
on 8/11/03 at 09:59 (126718)
Need comments from anyone who has had either surgery or electomagnetic shock therapy for chronic plantar fasciitix. I've been in pain since April and have had everything but these 2 treatments. My pan is worse. I wear a boot all day and a night splint. Still I have pain an it is getting worse. Any recommendations?

June since you have only had plantar fasciaitis for about 5 months you have a 90% chance of obtaining a complete cure with conservative measures. Just make sure you have a Doctor who has a good understanding of the disease and handles these cases on a regular basis. Read a lot of the information on this board so you know the right questions to ask your Doctor. Are you seeing a Podiatrist or Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Specialist? I think most family Doctors are not nearly as up to date at treating this problem so I would see one of the two I mention. Do you wear orthotics, good shoes, ice, any stretching,etc? Are you doing anything to aggrevate the condition like running or standind all day? Let us know what you are doing to cure yourself.

Tech Tip Advanced Web Search Techniques
Internet search techniques
That reduced about 1 million of the returns but we still have about 5 million web pages to check out. A final way to narrow the search is to use quotes to narrow the search to an exact phrase. For example if what we're really interested in is granny smith apples we can add that to the search like this:
Now I will only see websites that have the words "granny smith" on them in that order spelled the way I spelled them. Using quotes is always a great way to narrow a search and in my example I was able to go from having 22 million web pages returned from my original search for "apples" to around 220,000 by my last example.
Google forms Tab Tab Type
When I first saw that the new Google Forms only has one option for multiple choice I was disappointed. Using the mouse is something I try to avoid. Tab and keyboard shortcuts can help me be super productive when creating. Happily a few tricks makes it a snap to create a Google Form.
Tab and Type
When adding a question to Google Forms, the default is a multiple choice question. (Control Shift Enter creates a new question by the way.) Type the question, press Tab, press Tab again to type the first answer option.
Press Tab again to go to option 2. DO NOT TOUCH THE MOUSE! Do not delete. Just start typing. You do not have to click on "Add option." Just type.
Press Tab and press Tab again to add a 3rd option. DO NOT TOUCH THE MOUSE. Just start typing.
Notice in the GIF below that I added and created a multiple choice question without using the mouse. If you look closely the mouse icon does not move until the end when I end the recording.
Tech Tip 10/21/16 Keyboard Shortcuts for the Windows Wiz
WIN Key
When I start working on the computer, I mostly tend to head straight to the start menu so let's go there. To bring up the start menu using the keyboard, just press the START key (also called the WIN key) which is normally at the bottom left of the keyboard close to the spacebar. It will have a small Microsoft symbol on it. It varies slightly in design according to what keyboard you're using but it looks something like this :
Then once the start menu pops up, just use the arrow keys on your keyboard to choose your desired program and hit enter to run it.
The WIN key is actually very versatile and goes to the heart of being able to whiz around your desktop without the mouse. For example, if you do WIN + R, you can get the Run box (try it). WIN + E opens Explorer (your hard drive), WIN + D minimizes all your windows and takes you to the desktop, WIN+L locks your screen and WIN + TAB moves you from one open application to another.
While working in an application…
Save the file before closing, just do CTRL + S. To print the file, do CTRL + P.
Cut / Copy / Paste / Undo
Obviously everyone knows the copy and paste functions (CTRL + C and CTRL + V). But how many people know that to cut something is CTRL + X. Or to undo the previous action is CTRL + Z.
Tech Tip of the Week 10/11/16
Commonly used keyboard shortcuts.
|Ctrl + C (or Ctrl + Insert)
|Copy the selected item
|Ctrl + X
|Cut the selected item
|Ctrl + V (or Shift + Insert)
|Paste the selected item
|Ctrl + Z
|Undo an action
|Ctrl + Y
|Redo an action
|Delete (or Ctrl + D)
|Delete the selected item and move it to the Recycle Bin
|Shift + Delete
|Delete the selected item without moving it to the Recycle Bin first
|Ctrl + A
|Select all items in a document or window
Tech Tip October 7 2016
Google is commonly used to search for information, but it has a lot of "hidden" features that can save you time!
1. Go to www.google.com
2. In the search window, try the following:
Type a calculation and press enter.

- 25 + 35 * 3 / 4 – 2
- 1535 – 276
- 14 * 3 – 6
Conversion Tool
Type something similar to one of the following and press enter:
Be sure to use the word "in."
- 1 mile in feet
- 1 cup in tablespoons
- 100 dollars in Euros
- 180 c in f
Type "Define" and then the word you want defined:
- define pragmatic
- define congruent
- define socialism
Type the word "weather" and then the city (or city and state) and then press return to see the weather conditions for the next 5 days:
- weather Wichita
- weather London
- weather Portland, OR

We have stayed at this campground a few times a year for many years. We are typically there on long holiday weekends. They staff is awesome and you truly feel like family there. We really like the facing pull-throughs as we typically stay with at least one other family and its nice to be awning to awning and this makes the sites much larger. They are level and grassy. The only thing its missing is a pool. There's a nice small race track right across the street too. - Campdad
May 2012 - $27.00
Rate is for a Water and Electric pull through. No discounts whatsoever. 27$ is still reasonable and the main reason for still rating it a 6. The site is grass, quite slopped and hard to level. There is no privacy. In fact this was the first campground we stayed in where I could shake hands with the neighbor from window to window. We couldn't pull out the awning because a tree was in the way. In the fire pit we found garbage from the previous site occupants, one of some signs we found that the staff has no attention to detail. Except for some train noise we had a good nights sleep. WiFi was ok. The day we left (check out = 2 pm) we visited the Genesee Village Museum which is lovely and just a few minutes away. Returning noonish we found our successors already waiting for the site, because staff had told them the site would be available as of noon. Very uncomfortable situation. Next time in the area we would try to find another campground. - TheSchweitzers

The owners are very friendly and they keep the CG in very good shape. Many sites are for the season but sites are kept very nice. No sewer but have honey wagon and grey water at sites. 30amp power was weak but was a very hot 3 days. Nice little town of LeRoy near by with a wonderful RxR Depot restaurant. Letchworth SP 20 miles away and very nice. Loud race track open only Saturday nights across the street. Would stay again. Great RV service Co in Caledonia. - User1400

Because of the 'concert' we had no interest in, the rate for our week here was VERY over priced. The map shows a mini-golf course; it hasn't been there for years. The G section of the map is on the steepest hill we ever camped on--awful. The pool was never cleaned. Some creepy employee kept hanging around the women's room every time our neighbor's 12 year old niece went to take a shower! I have seen much nicer playgrounds in people's yards. There were no activities except: a bounce house that seemed randomly put up on no schedule, a fun wagon ride one of the nights for the kids, and a day water gun wagon ride. Won't stay here ever again. - Camping Mer
Jun 2012 - $44.00
Nice little campground on the former site of a ski resort. Sites are tiered on hills to provide nice views, but require some up and down hill driving to reach some sites. Staff was very friendly and helped us choose the best site for our needs by driving us to a couple of sites and letting us decide. Some sites are reserved by seasonals, but can be rented when the owners aren't using them. Positioning of utilities varied, so some are best left to towed vehicles rather than motorhomes. We stayed one night and paid $44 for a premium 50-amp full hookup site with the Good Sam discount. - wombatman
May 2011 - $34.00
We stayed here while visiting friends in Rochester. The location is great with easy access from the Interstate. The host/owners were very friendly and helpful. We would have rated this higher, but the campground needs a lot of work. The owners are improving it daily. The day we arrived about half of the campground was flooded and they had a hard time placing us. Our 40' motorhome was too large for the site we had to use and hung over on another site. We enjoyed the live music provided. - dandg

This was an overnight stop for us as we head west to Cincinnati. We requested a pull thru, 50 amp, water and sewer. The host (Skip) took us to the over night pull thru area which was up a relatively steep hill, very rough, very dusty, narrow road. The PT sites are right next to I-90, so lots of noise. After Skip left I began to setup for the night (water/sewer/power). The power boxes were very old and in rough condition and while the site's nightly rate was for 50 amp service the 50 amp plug was feed by two 30 amp breakers so in a sense instead of 100 amp service (two 50 amp legs) this was a 60 amp service (two 30 amp legs). I got everything hooked up and went inside the coach and my Energy Management System showed NO Voltage. I started my generator to run the AC and everything work fine off the generator. I called the CG office and the lady said she'd send Skip back. After about 20 minutes Skip returned checked the legs with his meter and said,'have 240 vac, everything is working'. I questioned the two 30 amp breakers and he said it's wired with 50 amp wire but he reduces it to 30 amp. My concern at this point was the wiring and issues with the neutral and calmly explained my concerns to Skip. At that point Skip walked away from me saying , 'bigger rigs than yours have stayed here and no one else has complained, so if you don't like it pack up and leave and we'll give you your money back'. His tone was rather rude and at that I disconnected, brought in the slides and drove to the office for a credit. We drove to another area campground (2 miles away), connected to their 50 amp service (with actual 50 amp breakers) and everything work as it should. There was definitely an issue with their service/wiring.
So if you decide to stay here, expect rough roads, at steep hill to drive up, your RV to get dirty from the dust, 50 amp service that is throttled to 30 amp that may or may not work. If you have a problem expect Skip to just tell you to leave. - Russ G

It is easy on/off the NYS Thruway for a night but I would not make it a destination point. The sites are on grass. To get to the pull-through sites you have to go up a short very steep hill and I believe there are about 3 of these site. The front of your rig faces the thruway, which is about 200 feet in front. Yes, there is road noise but we were able to get to sleep. They offer no discounts. There is plenty of room to walk a dog but the only container to dispose of the waste is down near the office. - petpeople

My four children, wife, and I purchased our first a fifth wheel and had a wonderful two week experience. We never owned an RV and the owner backed us in, hooked us up, and went over the basics. We were on the seasonal level at the bottom of the hill and were quite pleased with the wide open spaces. The kids fished in the 2 acre "lake", more of a pond, and had a blast. There are two play areas and a pool. My wife and I had fun playing in the arcade that had old games. There is a small store that has all the camp stuff and a mini golf course. They made friends for life. - The Raging Lucy

We stayed 3 nights. 40 Foot Class A Diesel Pusher with 4 slides and pulling our toad. We have our own satellite dish, use our OTA antenna and seldom use cable. We have 2 in our party with a small dog. Hook ups were acceptable with no issues on electricity, water or sewage. We use the WIFI for basic, seemed OK. We have our own MIFI. What we liked: The staff was courteous / friendly on arrival. Park has a secured gate for entrance and exit which is very nice. A deposit is given for the card key. The site we had was a back in with plenty of space. Park is very well kept and really in the country. Fresh air and very kind people all around. We enjoyed walking about the park with our dog meeting so many people. No doubt very good value for the money. We would stay here again. - rdmike

This is a beautiful, large RV park. Lots of seasonal guests with beautifully maintained lots and spaces. The park seems to have many families with children, dogs and activities. There is not much to do here except visit the neighbors and enjoy the location and events. It really is lovely place and very pleasant to walk through. We stopped here over the Memorial Day weekend and were extremely lucky to get a spot - thanks to a late cancellation. Everyone here is friendly and the park owners get rave reviews from the campers - many of whom have been coming here for years and are booked for next year. - ArkansasTraveler

To call this a gem is a bit too much. We stayed here because they are open year around and in April there are almost no campgrounds open, so we stayed here. The "sites" are some grass areas behind the owners house. The sites are very close to the highway and there is a lot of highway noise. I would not recommend this CG unless you really need a place to stay when everything else is closed. It is fairly easy to get to off I-90. - TheJim

What a hidden jewel this is! Great for extended visits to the VA facility. Very tiny but a wonderful woman managing the park. Very old mobile home park with some vintage units in it but very quiet. A great park also for overnight. I do not think they are open year round. - Tamera
Aug 2007 - $25.00
This park was such a nice surprise. We found it by accident and will make a point of going back. It is located on the edge of town and shopping is within 5 miles. Very friendly woman handles the check-in! It is quiet because it is an actual mobile home park, most people gone during the day and quiet at night. Good stop for us "geezers"!! - Phoebe

This park is built on the side of a hill. It is steep to enter and exit. Bring a lot of lumber for leveling. There are old decks alongside trailers that are falling down. It is 50 years old and it looks it. There have been no improvements to the sites at all. If you have a rig over 30' do not even bother. Sites are not deep enough to handle rigs built today. Buildings at the park are in need of improvement and remodeling. It is an RV park trying to be a mobile home park. We would never stay here again. - Ray Morse

Like the other comments on this site, the campground is very steep. We walked down to the store and the other playground, and then had to walk back up. This was not too fun. Our site was up at the top of the park. Overall, I didn't have a problem getting my hybrid trailer up here. I pull it with a V8 Grand Cherokee. My 3 year old son really liked playing at the playground area. The pool was nice and clean. We were close enough that we just walked down there, so we didn't deal with parking. The few interactions that we had with the staff were pleasant and the camp store was well stocked like others said. I had to ask where the dump station was as it wasn't clearly marked. As for leaving, I put the truck in 4 wheel drive low range, and drive 1, and just idled down the hill. But like others said, it is really steep, and I could see your truck brakes heating up when heading down the hill. - penberth

As others have commented, there is a steep hill to enter/exit the campground but our 21' trailer posed no problem. We did not find the staff particularly friendly or welcoming. The campground needs updating. The site we had was smaller and lacked privacy; however, we did have a little view of the lake which is located across the street. There is another campground down the street called South Shore which looked in worse condition than this one. - naturelover

Front desk was very friendly and helpful. We got here late in the afternoon so we didn't use any of the facilities. The pull thru gravel site was in front of the lodge and was level. New power poles have good plugs, the best I have seen in any park we have stayed in on this 6,000 mile trip. Water pressure is adequate, the park uses well water and it tastes pretty good.
The park does have seasonal residents but I don't think you will find a park that doesn't in this part of the country.
Lots of activities for the kids and adults. We would stay here again. - Mooney 201 Pilot

This was the only park we found within an hour of Buffalo that had full hookups. The drive to the park is beautiful! All shopping is 15 minutes away in Batavia. Does not have 50 amps and we needed an extension cord to reach the electrical box. Very soft gravel under the RV, but area in front of rig needed a lot more gravel as it was muddy when it rained. Verizon was very sketchy as you are really out in the country. We definitely needed our booster for internet. Lei-Ti is full of seasonal campers and has loads of activities for kids. But, we don't have kids. Security does patrol regularly and quiet hours were enforced. Our area was all dirt with a little gravel. Lots of trees for shade in our area (we were given a site that was originally for a seasonal rig), but noticed that the area close to the entrance for short term stay (maybe six sites) is out in the open. We stayed for two weeks. Staff was very accommodating, but not overly friendly. Would stay again. - mauigirl7254

This park specializes in seasonal guests, but we were OK with the overnight accommodations. We had a long open gravel pull through in front of the Lodge. Nothing fancy, but good in the rain and close to the wifi antenna. - camprats

We stayed here because we wanted to explore the park in depth, which we were able to do. Our site was most spacious, as almost all sites were, with fire rings and picnic table, some privacy. We were located in one of the 2 or 3 (of 8) loops that allowed pets and, even though we have no pets, we had no complaints. Our first site required extreme blocking, using every single block we had with us. On our last night, we moved to a level site in a different loop, so we could get off to an early start in the morning. The restrooms and showers were cleaned daily, but they were full of mold and spider webs. The showers had good water pressure and were very hot. - MissMyGolden

Be careful booking if you have pets. Pets are only allowed in loops 100, 200 and 700 and you need to show a rabies certificate at check-in. Our site was just long enough for our 40 ft MH with the Jeep parked nearly in the road. Site was level and private. Electric hook-up only. We filled water tank on the way out. Three pump outs at dump station. Park is 4,000 acres. Gorgeous scenery. 10 miles from campsite to Visitor Center.
BEWARE that Portageville entrance is closed for bridge construction until further notice. Our Magellan GPS routed us this way and we had to take a long detour to enter at the Castile entrance and then had a long drive to camp registration. The Perry entrance is closest to camping. - Bunci

Thurs/Friday, Saturday June 3-5. Site 708
This park was rated the number one park in the nation last year and it deserves it rating. The campground with 270 electric sites has five non pet loops and 3 pet loops - need to show rabies certification. There are some big sites and a number of un-level sites and it is hard to tell from the description on Reserve America. The campground sites with pets were booked the weekend we were there. Bath houses were very clean and they are individual rooms with 4 toilets and showers in each loop. There is a fitness trail along the campground road and when we were there wild flowers were in bloom. The park itself is huge with 14,350 acres along the Genesee River. The Gorge with its huge walls and the river winding its way is beautiful and there are three major waterfalls - Upper, Middle (which is lit at night) and Lower. Many more small waterfalls, 75 trails, Museum, Inn, Nature Center, restaurants, restrooms and gift shops. The Gorge is ten miles away from the campground. The drive down to the Visitor Center from the campground is beautiful with pullouts, picnic areas and trails to overlooks. The Visitor Center parking lot is not big so parking for RV's can be difficult unless you go in the morning. Middle Falls does have more parking and Lower Falls has a big lot. Everyone should camp at least once at this great NY State Park. - gsnakehill

They only have about three, 50 amp full service sites and they are right out front, so at first I was a little disappointed in our site. But by the time we left, I had decided I would be glad to stay there again. There is a large field in front of the park that separates you from the road and a beautiful farm across the road, so it is quiet at night.
The family that owns, could not be nicer or more accommodating and work hard to keep the place spotless and come up with all kinds of stuff to do on the weekends. They had outdoor movies, bingo, free watermelon, cooked pizza to order.
Our stay here was an excellent experience. - mary mcmoo
Aug 2014 - $35.00
This park is under new ownership. We stayed here with another family. They have only owned it one year and you can see how hard they are working to clean it up. Right now there are lots of seasonals. However, their kids are also working and they helped moved a fire pit for us and even asked us to close our door as to not get dirt into the camper. Nice in ground pool, playground, fishing pond and other things to do for the kids. In the back, there are secluded tent sites and even an overflow area. Give this campsite and try and you will NOT be disappointed. Looking forward to seeing what more they can do in another year. Will go back if we are in the area. Very friendly family/staff. - aka4170

Great location if you are visiting Buffalo or Rochester which are both about 50 miles away. Owners are extremely helpful and will take care of any requests promptly. In October when we stayed it was very quiet and close to lots of state parks also. - Tumblewood
Sep 2012 - $44.00
We loved this campground, the staff were great, some of the best we have met. The breakfast they serve on weekends is a great deal and way under priced. It may not be the best for younger children as there is not as much for them to do as in many other parks, but for my wife and I, it was perfect. We will be going back next year, I recommend the lakeside sites. - littleb
Aug 2009 - $18.00
We stayed here because they accept Passport America and they are close to Letchworth State Park. We found the park to be fine and would stay there again. Because we were there during the week and the park is mostly seasonal, we felt like we were the only ones there, which was just fine. Spaces were either gravel or grass and were fairly flat. The park is about 4 miles out of Warsaw. Warsaw has a WalMart if needed. Wi-Fi is free but central location only. Cable is $5 extra. No sewer and no 50 amp (although others say they have 50 amp). - vidcity

Simoniz S1900 Pressure Washer Reviews
Clear all filters (2 of 2 reviews match)
Bought a Simoniz S1900 Pressure Washer a few years back. Used it once to clean my deck. After use, removed water from the unit per instructions from the manual. Stored the unit in my basement, not close to the furnace, as directed in the manual. When I next went to clean the deck two years later, the power washer and gun did not leak and the motor ran. But, the spray power was weak, and cycled up and down. Even worse, the motor stops after about...Read more

If you still have some cash left over after buying an iPhone 6S, you might want to spend it on the Apple Watch, which is finally coming to India on November 6, according to Apple's India website.
The Watch is Apple's first wearable device that not only tracks your fitness (in addition to reminding you to stand up every hour), but also gives you email, text messages, notifications and apps right on your wrist.
It is available in two sizes -- 38 mm and 42 mm -- and depending on which model you buy, prices in the United States range from $349 (roughly Rs 23,000) to $17,000 (roughly Rs 11 lakh) before taxes.
It also features dozens of bands available in different materials like rubber, leather and metal that users can easily switch between.
The Apple Watch has received mixed reviews so far. Its most vocal critics include Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who recently tweeted this:
Regarding the watch, Jony & his team created a beautiful design, but the functionality isn't compelling yet. By version 3, it will be.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 9, 2015
Apple hasn't announced how much the Watch will cost in India yet, but given how overpriced its latest phone in India is, we're guessing it will be north of Rs 30,000. But what the heck. It's almost Diwali. That's as good an excuse as any to splurge.

-> First new armor bought, no texture on the player anymore
-> Exspecting to see some of Daggerdale, but the whole game seems to be in a mine or some underground
-> No Patch seem under way
Sad, a Diablo like D&D sounded promising, but the result is a cheap and buggy production

COMMON COPING STRATEGIES AFTER A RAPE OR SEXUAL ASSAULT Attempts to block memories or forget Refuses to talk about the incident Uses defense mechanism of denial May self-medicate (Drugs, alcohol) May self-injure
STATISTICS ON RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT ON INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES The risk of being physically or sexually assaulted for adults with developmental disabilities is likely 4 to 10 times as high as it is for other adults (Accessing Safety Initiative Website, Sobsey 1994) In one study, the rate of sexual abuse among people with developmental disabilities was found to be at more than 70% (Accessing Safety Initiative Website, Sobsey and Doe 1994?)
STATISTICS ON RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT ON INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES 97% to 99% of abusers are known and trusted by survivors who have an intellectual disability 32% were family members or acquaintances. 44% had a relationship with the survivor specifically related to the person's disability (i.e. residential care staff, transportation provider, personal care attendant) (Accessing Safety Initiative Website: Baladerian, N. Sexual Abuse of People with Developmental Disabilities, Sexuality and Disability 1991)
STATISTICS ON RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT ON INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES Over 50% of abuse is generally perpetrated by someone who is known to the victim – a family member, spouse or caregiver. Accordingly, 49% of sexual abuse perpetrators access their victims through their work in a disability service (Sobsey, 1994). Persons with disabilities who are survivors of rape and sexual assault knew their attacker in 90% of these assaults (Valenti-Hein and Schwartz 1995as reported in A Call to Action: Ending Crimes of Violence Against Children and Adults with Disabilities. A report to the nation 2003.)
MYTHS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF RAPE/SEXUAL ASSAULT AND DISABILITIES Myth: People with disabilities are asexual, do not have sexual feelings, do not have sexual relationships and are not capable of understanding (or determining) their own sexuality. Fact: People with disabilities are sexual beings with the same needs, desires, and dreams as anyone living with out a disability. (Stop the Violence, Break the Silence: A training guide, By: Disability Services ASAP (A Safety Awareness Program) of SafePlace, Austin, Texas)
MYTHS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF RAPE/SEXUAL ASSAULT AND DISABILITIES Myth: People with disabilities are oversexed or promiscuous and need to be punished for acting on sexual needs or urges. Fact: People with disabilities are no more promiscuous than people without disabilities.
MYTHS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF RAPE/SEXUAL ASSAULT AND DISABILITIES Myth: Most of the abuse and violence perpetrated against people with disabilities is done by strangers. Fact: Of all reported sexual assaults, 91% of the perpetrators are known to the victim (Sobsey, 1988) (Stop the Violence, Break the Silence: A training guide, By: Disability Services ASAP (A Safety Awareness Program) of SafePlace, Austin, Texas)
MYTHS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF RAPE/SEXUAL ASSAULT AND DISABILITIES Myth: People with cognitive disabilities are not affected by sexual abuse. Fact: ANYONE subjected to a rape / sexual assault is affected regardless of disability or not.
MYTHS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT AND DISABILITIES Myth: People with disabilities are not credible witnesses and can not be believed without some extra burden of evidence or excessive questions and testing of competence (disability equals non-credibility). Fact: People with disabilities can be very credible witnesses with the same support any other victim of a crime receives.
VULNERABILITY FACTORS OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES TO SEXUAL VIOLENCE Inaccurate societal views of people with disabilities. Insufficient education about safety and domestic / sexual violence, personal rights, appropriate sexual relationships and proper responses to victimization. Dependence on service providers, primary caretaker, family member or intimate partner for a range of living skills and personal assistance.
VULNERABILITY FACTORS OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES TO SEXUAL VIOLENCE Lack of education about perpetrator motives. Lack of credibility in the eyes of the criminal justice system. They are viewed as easy targets.
Against survivors with disabilities: Threatening to leave or deny care if she doesn't consent to sexual activity Abusing intimate body parts; grabbing genitals while providing care Taking advantage of lack of understanding about sex Forcing sterilization ADDITIONAL TACTICS OF SEXUAL ABUSE
EFFECTS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE SPECIFIC TO A SURVIVOR WITH DISABILITIES Difficulties with systems collaboration Separation from support network / loved ones Adjustment to living with disability in cases where no disability was present prior to assault New health challenges, exacerbation of existing medical issues
BARRIERS FOR SURVIVORS WITH DISABILITIES TO DISCLOSING RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT Fear of losing housing, primary caregiver, and family. People with developmental disabilities have additional concern that multiple entities become informed as part of mandated report process – they don't just tell one person. People who are totally dependent on caregivers may not be able to communicate about the assault, or may not realize what it is.
POSSIBLE PHYSICAL SIGNS OF SEXUAL ABUSE Torn, stained clothing / bedding Difficulty walking or sitting Pregnancy STI's Vaginal / Penile Discharge Infection Vaginal bleeding Anal bleeding Redness Irritation Unusual bathroom habits Weight gain / weight loss Change in hygiene habits Cuts, bruises, scratches Bite marks, burns
POSSIBLE BEHAVIORAL INDICATORS OF SEXUAL ABUSE Extreme, irrational changes in behavior Infantile behavior Sexual promiscuity Lavish and abundant gifts given for no reason Unexplained fears of a particular person Fear of being alone Frequent bathing and/or washing Change in attitude about body or sexuality
POSSIBLE BEHAVIORAL INDICATORS OF SEXUAL ABUSE Uncomfortable with disrobing Wearing layers of clothes Appearing unkempt and neglecting personal hygiene Aggressive and/or disruptive behavior Shy, withdrawn, and depressive state Suicide attempts
POSSIBLE BEHAVIORAL INDICATORS OF SEXUAL ABUSE Self – mutilation Excessive masturbation Sleep disturbances Continual daydreaming or vacant stares Pulls away with slightest touch Complaints about frequent, recurring physical problems
WHY SCREEN FOR RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT? Rape / Sexual Assault is a public health concern with an American being sexually assaulted every two minutes Rape / Sexual Assault has devastating effects on the survivor which may impede and interfere with her services. Identifying Rape /Sexual Assault helps service providers and organizations to deliver services more appropriately and safely.
Always interview survivor individually, in private, away from partners, family members, caregivers or personal care attendants. If the third party is present to accommodate the needs of the survivor, service provider should, at the soonest possible time, get the survivor alone. Advise survivor about program's confidentiality policies and mandatory reporting obligations before requesting disclosures. TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN SCREENING FOR RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT
Use the language the survivor with whom you work uses when referring to his/her experiences. Be cautious when using words like "rape" in initial conversations. Maintain eye contact and eye level Maintain a nurturing / supportive tone Respect boundaries Do not ask "why" questions, as they can feel blaming.
Identify and use appropriate language that recognizes personal caregivers, or other specialized support personnel as potential abusers/ perpetrators/ stalkers. Ask questions designed to elicit broad responses and give you a full picture of her/ his experiences and relationships Be flexible – survivor may disclose after trust and relationship built, when its safe to talk, or after an incident TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN SCREENING FOR RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT
TYPES OF DISCLOSURES Testing the waters Tentative approach The "Inappropriate" Question A disguised disclosure Vaguely Using exact words
HANDLING DISCLOSURES Talk to the survivor in a private place Explain your professional role and confidentiality procedures Report disclosure as required Assess the immediate safety needs of the survivor
HANDLING DISCLOSURES Immediately reduce any blame, guilt, or shame survivor may feel Listen intently – story may get confusing. Support survivor's feelings Offer safety planning as appropriate
THE THREE C'S Basic Definitions: Competence: The scope of a person's abilities Capacity: The mental ability to understand the nature and consequences of a decision Consent: Willful permission to have something happen or to do something
COMPETENCE Is a judicial decision Incompetence must be demonstrated by a lack of the needed functional abilities of the individual in certain areas Having a developmental or acquired disability does not mean that the person is incompetent or incapacitated to make decisions
COMPETENCE Being "presumed competent" however, does not mean that the person is competent Law generally does not presume that incompetence in one area renders an individual incompetent in other areas
CAPACITY TO CONSENT The mental ability to understand the nature and consequences of a decision Incapacity occurs when there is a mismatch between the functional abilities of the person and the demands of the specific situation requiring a decision Capacity to make a decision can be assessed by clinicians or, in some cases, by treatment teams
INFORMED CONSENT Permission for something to happen or to do something, given with full knowledge of the risks involved, probable consequences, and the alternatives.
PROVIDER RESPONSIBILITY Providers are expected to: Respect the decisions and choices made by a person with the ability to do so (even when they disagree with those decisions or choices) Ensure that protection is afforded those persons that do not have the ability to make those decisions
CAPACITY TO CONSENT TO SEXUAL CONTACT Exists when: The person is an adult generally defined as 18 years or older He/she is capable of making a decision to engage in the type of sexual contact under consideration, He/she has full knowledge and understanding of the activity He/she has an ability to convey this decision.
CAPACITY TO CONSENT TO SEXUAL CONTACT The evaluation of a person's ability to consent should include consideration of the following: The person's awareness of having the choice to engage in or to abstain from the type of sexual contact under consideration The person's ability to make a choice as to whether or not to engage in the type of sexual contact under consideration
CAPACITY TO CONSENT TO SEXUAL CONTACT The person's awareness of the nature of the sexual activity and its risk and consequences. The person's understanding of what constitutes sexual expression, and the possible need for restrictions as to time, place or behavior.
CAPACITY TO CONSENT TO SEXUAL CONTACT The person's understanding of how to prevent pregnancy and diseases which are sexually transmitted The person's understanding that sexually assaultive behavior is prohibited and a crime, and sexually exploitative behavior is inappropriate.
RESTRICTIONS ON ABILITY TO CONSENT TO SEXUAL CONTACT A parent or legal guardian of an adult with a disability cannot limit that adult's sexual activity except where the Court has given the parent/ guardian the authority to make such decisions The expression of sexuality can also be reasonably limited or restricted, including the time and location, in accordance with a plan necessary for the health and well being of the individual or for effective facility management. (14 NYCRR Section 633.4)
PRIVACY RIGHTS All persons have the right to privacy All persons should also have the opportunity to discuss their sexuality on a formal, informal and private basis with anyone of their choice, provided others are willing to participate. Sexual expression and choices of partners are private and subject to the same rules of confidentiality as other matters
ASSESSING CAPACITY TO CONSENT TO MEDICAL TREATMENT & COUNSELING Consider four functional abilities: Ability to express a choice Ability to understand information relevant to the decision in question Ability to appreciate the significance of that information for one's own situation, and the probable consequences of treatment options Ability to reason with relevant information so as to engage in a logical process of weighing treatment options (Grisso & Appelbaum ( 1998) Assessing competence to consent for treatment: A guide for physicians and other health professionals.)
LEGAL CONSENT IN NYS Forcible compulsion Incapacity to consent less than 17 mentally disabled (cognitively incapable) mentally incapacitated (intoxicated drugs /alcohol) physically helpless in the custody of the state department of correctional services, office of children and family services, or a health care setting A clear expression of no
VIBS mandates: *Only mandate is to report suspected or known child abuse to Child Protective Services *No mandates covering persons with developmental disabilities *Professional discretion utilized regarding Adult Protective Services for people with developmental disabilities MANDATORY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
UCP Mandates: *NYS Office for People with Developmental Disabilities highly regulates agency responsibilities in allegations of abuse and other incidents of harm. *People with developmental disabilities certified by OPWDD who attend programs and services certified by OPWDD which accept OPWDD funds – ALL allegations of abuse must be reported and investigated according to stringent regulations, subject to audit. MANDATORY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
You do not deserve to be abused You have the right to be in a non-violent environment You are not responsible for the perpetrator's behavior Refer her to VIBS or gain additional guidance from Project SAFE THINGS TO SAY TO A SURVIVOR OF RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT
INFORMATION FOR A SERVICE PROVIDER TO TELL A SURVIVOR AFTER A RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT Encourage survivor not to shower, clean up the area, or put anything mouth (no food, water, mouthwash, etc.) Encourage survivor to obtain medical attention (SANE Center)
INFORMATION FOR A SERVICE PROVIDER TO TELL A SURVIVOR AFTER A RAPE / SEXUAL ASSAULT Provide survivor with VIBS hotline number Provide support and tell survivor the rape / sexual assault was not her fault
WHERE TO GO AFTER A RAPE OR SEXUAL ASSAULT? SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) Centers are private, undisclosed locations set up outside the hospital emergency room have specially trained nurses who are sensitive to rape and sexual assault issues
WHERE TO GO AFTER A RAPE OR SEXUAL ASSAULT? SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) Centers have special amenities to help make the procedure as comfortable as possible for the survivor can request that an ERC (emergency room companion) is present
FAQ'S ABOUT SANE Anyone who has been raped or sexually assaulted can use a SANE Center It is required that the survivor seeks medical attention within 96 hours from the time that the rape / assault occurred The three SANE centers in Suffolk are at: *Peconic Bay Medical Center *Good Samaritan Hospital *Stony Brook University Medical Center
WHO TO CONTACT FOR ASSISTANCE VIBS Hotline is 24 Hours 360 – 3606 Project SAFE collaboration representatives can be contacted for further assistance on the intersection of domestic violence and disability *Kathleen Cammarata (VIBS) *Ruth Reynolds (VIBS) *Clarice Murphy (VIBS) *Pat Caso (UCP) *Dana Waite-Esposito (UCP)
PROJECT SAFE'S MISSION VIBS Family Violence and Rape Crisis Center and UCP-Suffolk will work together to promote a safe, accessible and responsive service environment for women in Suffolk County who are survivors of domestic and sexual violence with a physical and/or developmental disability. We will accomplish this by creating sustainable changes in our organizational cultures through:
PROJECT SAFE'S MISSION Fostering collaboration Sharing resources and knowledge Enhancing the existing service delivery system Implementing policies and procedures that reflect best practices of professional ethics, trust, open communication, and true understanding of the challenges and needs of survivors with disabilities

Blurry or pixelated images are a real annoyance for computer users. Not only can errant pixels ruin the effect of an on-screen image, but squinting at pixelated images for too long can result in eye strain or a headache. Computer image problems can manifest in a number of ways and have many different causes. Your own pixel issues may be due to one or several of the issues mentioned in this tutorial. Work through the steps until you have found the solution that works for you.
- Skill level:
- Moderate
Other People Are Reading
- 1
Adjust your screen resolution. The resolution setting reflects the number of pixels that can be displayed on your monitor at a time. If the resolution setting is too high or too low, this can result in poor image quality. This is particularly true if you are using old software, especially outdated video games. Within your computer's control panel, try different resolution settings until you find the one that best suits your monitor. (The location of these settings will differ depending on what operating system you are using.)
- 2
Adjust the resolution settings within your software programs. Media-heavy programs, such as media players or computer games, often have resolution settings within the "Options" or "Settings" menu. Setting the program to match the resolution of your monitor can result in a much cleaner image.
- 3
Update the drivers for your video card. A video card is the hardware component that controls all visual output for your computer. The drivers are the software programs that make the card able to communicate with the rest of the computer. Out-of-date drivers can result in less-than-optimal performance for your video card. To update your video card, download the software from the website for the card's manufacturer. It is also likely that your operating system has a built-in function for scanning for driver updates. There is also the possibility that the video card itself is out of date, in which case it will need to be replaced.
- 4
Turn your monitor off, count to 10 and turn it back on again. This very simple fix is a good cure for stuck pixels -- little dots of light that get stuck in a particular colour, rather than changing with the rest of the image. If the pixels are red, green or blue, then a quick monitor reset should do the trick. However, if the pixels are black and refuse to change colour, it is likely you are seeing a dead pixel, which is typically a result of a broken or worn-out monitor. If you have dead pixels, it is probably time to start looking for a replacement monitor.

We had a great time in Rhodes Matopo National park in Zimbabwe near Bulawayo. We arrived in Bulawayo time and wonder around the town thinking of what to do and with who?
On our second day, we visited the history museum and the art gallery which was a nice start.
The next day we were picked up by our Operator who had suggested that we should spend two nights camping in Matopos. After packing our food stuff, we headed to the park and set up our camp at Big Cave Camp site.The camp site was good with the great view of the sorrounding.After our lunch we visited the Rhodes grave site and the cave paintings.We found the place to really spectacular.
The sun set from the world view was brilliant.
We return to our camp late in the evening and there was fire place close to the bar with other travellers.The artmosphere was real romantic and adventurous.The dinner was served on the open with beautiful stars in the sky.
The next day we went to the game park where we saw both black rhino and white but after we did a safari walk with our operator. We did not see much of the game because of the recent bush fire and vegetation cover. All in all,we had a great romantic time in Rhodes Matopos national park. We would like to highly recommend "ThisAndThat Safaris to anybody who would need a great romantic safari in Matopo National Park.ThisAndThat Safaris were excellent and always alert to reason to our needs.

The panelists for the discussion were C. James Carrico, MD, from Seattle; Jonathan Meakins, MD, DSc, FRCSC, FACS, from Montreal; Donald Fry, MD, from Cleveland; and Ronald V. Maier, MD, from Seattle.
Dr Carrico: Multiple-organ-failure (MOF) syndrome is a process that occurs following 7% to 22% of emergency operations and between 30% and 50% of operations for intra-abdominal sepsis; MOF syndrome carries a mortality that varies from 30% to 100% depending on the number of organs involved. Treatment usually involves support of the organ (system) function and control of sepsis.1,2 In developing a clinical description, we can use a classic description of respiratory failure from the late 1960s as a model. Rather than a single organ we need to describe the function of several systems and follow the changes through a series of stages, beginning with the patient who has recently experienced one

*You must spend at least this much on fitting materials to use the voucher
Absolutely amazing fire, gives out so much heat and very easy to light with only newspaper and sticks, also looks fantastic through the big glass window, all in all a fantastic purchase that we are delighted with, the service and advice from the Stove Fitters Warehouse was absolutely spot on and made the whole process much simpler for me, especially as i have never fitted anything like this myself before, just wished i'd used them straight away instead of spending countless hours researching and trawling the internet
I would highly recommend them and there products and will use them again for the next fire i am already planning
Many many thanks
Excellent value deal, the best I could find after many hours of trawling and the installation information supplied on the web site is exceptionally helpful as it takes away all the doubt and concerns over whether to DIY or not. I did and it all went swimmingly! We're not quite ready to fire up yet but there's even some good tips about what to expect so I recommend having a good read of the many step by step guides and then buying from these guys. The communications post sale has been very informative and accurate………and humorous so give it a go and get the stove in ready for winter!

Dirty Three
The rock wave from Australia
With their new album Toward the Low Sun (Bella Union), due for release on 28 February, Australia's Dirty Three are back after six years from their last studio recording Cinder.
In the meantime, each of the experimental cult band's three members have pursued their own solo projects, starting with Warren Ellis, violinist, long-time resident of Paris, who has been touring regularly as a key element of the Bad Seeds and Grinderman, working with his close friend Nick Cave on the soundtracks of the films The Assassination of Jesse James, The Proposition and The Road, and more recently debuting as an actor alongside Isabelle Huppert in Médée miracle. Jim White, the band's percussionist who lives in Brooklyn, has spent the last few years touring and recording with artists like Cat Power, Bonnie Prince Billy, Nina Nastasia and PJ Harvey, while Mick Turner, guitarist and the only band member to remain in Australia, has built a reputation as a visual artist, also recording the album Blue Trees with bandmate Jim White under the name The Tren Brothers.
«After such a long hiatus, it was time to get back to working together», says Ellis. «Dirty Three has always been about the way we play together and inspire each other. With this new record we wanted to get back to the instinctive, improvisational approach of our earliest projects». Honing their chops in the Melbourne underground scene, since 1993 Dirty Three have proven to be peerless masters of an evocative and engaging instrumental formula that encompasses folk, rock and chamber music. Recorded in Melbourne, Toward the Low Sun is an homage to Australia, to the rugged vastness of its almost metaphysical spaces, which the album tracks capture well. After participating in the rock event "I'll Be Your Mirror", 'cousin' of the "All Tomorrow's Parties" festival, scheduled for May in London, Dirty Three will start their new world tour from Australia.

Uptown Orange apartments win approval
The Orange Planning Commission has unanimously approved a plan to build a 334-unit apartment complex next to The Outlets at Orange.
The development will add a four-story apartment building and two parking structures to the lot that's directly south of the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel, and across the street from the UCI Medical Center.
Construction on the parking structures could begin in May, while the crews could start on the apartment building in the fall of 2014.The apartments could be ready for leasing by 2015.
"These apartments will help the city by creating more housing for our workforce," said Anna Pehoushek, the city's principal planner. "We see this development as a catalyst for our big-picture goal for the area."
Pehoushek said the city envisions the project as an anchor for Uptown Orange, an area with shopping and restaurants, mixed together with upscale housing.
The Planning Commission approved the project following a public hearing on Monday. Nobody from the public spoke before the commission. The project does not require City Council approval unless appealed to that panel.
The apartments will be developed by AMLI Residential, an Arcadia company that operates luxury apartments in the San Fernando Valley and in Rancho Cucamonga. The company also owns complexes in Texas, Florida, Colorado and other states.
The complex will feature studios, 1-3 bedroom apartments, a leasing office, clubhouse, fitness center, business center, two courtyards and two swimming pools. AMLI will pay for the upgrades of roadway medians on The City Drive and Manchester Avenue. It would also landscape parkways and plant trees around the site.
The project would be constructed on the parking lot currently used by the DoubleTree. The two new parking structures will add a combined 1,104 parking spots – 610 spaces for apartment residents and visitors, and 494 for hotel guests.
