(ipilimumab) Intravenous Infusion
YERVOY can result in severe and fatal immune-mediated adverse reactions. These immune-mediated reactions may involve any organ system; however, the most common severe immune-mediated adverse reactions are enterocolitis, hepatitis, dermatitis (including toxic epidermal necrolysis), neuropathy, and endocrinopathy. The majority of these immune-mediated reactions initially manifested during treatment; however, a minority occurred weeks to months after discontinuation of YERVOY.
Permanently discontinue YERVOY and initiate systemic high-dose corticosteroid therapy for severe immune-mediated reactions [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
Assess patients for signs and symptoms of enterocolitis, dermatitis, neuropathy, and endocrinopathy, and evaluate clinical chemistries including liver function tests, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) level, and thyroid function tests, at baseline and before each dose [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
YERVOY (ipilimumab) is a recombinant, human monoclonal antibody that binds to the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4). Ipilimumab is an IgG1 kappa immunoglobulin with an approximate molecular weight of 148 kDa. Ipilimumab is produced in mammalian (Chinese hamster ovary) cell culture.
YERVOY is a sterile, preservative-free, clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to paleyellow solution for intravenous infusion, which may contain a small amount of visible translucent-to-white, amorphous ipilimumab particulates. It is supplied in single-use vials of 50 mg/10 mL and 200 mg/40 mL. Each milliliter contains 5 mg of ipilimumab and the following inactive ingredients: diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) (0.04 mg), mannitol (10 mg), polysorbate 80 (vegetable origin) (0.1 mg), sodium chloride (5.85 mg), tris hydrochloride (3.15 mg), and Water for Injection, USP at a pH of 7.
What are the possible side effects of ipilimumab (Yervoy)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Serious and sometimes fatal reactions may occur during treatment with ipilimumab or months after stopping. Contact your doctor right away if you have symptoms such as:
- diarrhea, increased bowel movements, black or bloody stools, stomach tenderness;
- pain in your upper stomach, dark urine, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), easy bruising or bleeding;
- unusual muscle weakness, numbness or...

City to look into car sales at Exchange parking lot
The Crosslake City Council discussed car sales at the Exchange Bar and Grill parking lot on County Road 66 in Crosslake during its regular meeting Monday night, Sept. 9.
Community development director Ken Anderson approached the council on behalf of the planning and zoning commission to see what direction the council would like the commission to take regarding the issue.
The Exchange Bar and Grill burned down in 2008. Today, cars, boats, RVs and more are parked at the lot and marked with "for sale" signs. Anderson remarked that 12-20 vehicles or recreation items are parked there at any given time.
The city has standards for a used car lot, but those standards are for a business. The council was unaware whether the owner of the lot is making money off the car sales taking place there.
"These standards have to do with a business," council member Mark Wessels said. "These are people parking their private vehicle on property. I know two or three people who have vehicles there who don't have a contract with the property owner."
"It would make sense for the commission to look into that," mayor Darrell Schneider said.
Council member John Moengen said he was under the impression the property owner must be benefitting financially from the sales.
"I can't imagine it's a free for all," Moengen said.
Wessels pointed out that he's seen numerous businesses with items for sale set outside, and questioned how far regulation of the situation should go.
"Do we want a CUP (conditional use permit) process, licensing process to do that? How far do you want to go with this?" Wessels said.
Council consensus was to direct the planning and zoning commission to explore the situation.

Excerprt: "As one of the last NFL teams to reach their bye week, the New York Giants are undoubtedly welcoming a technical week off from a game that counts towards their 2012 season record. That '12 record so far is 6-4, not the reverse. Quarterback Eli Manning remains positive heading into the much-needed bye.
"We're still in a good position," said Manning. "If you said after 10 games, we'd be winning our division, you take that every time."It's been discussed already that so much more is expected from this Big Blue franchise than what's been exhibited thus far. High expectations lead to swift letdowns and ensuing hasty negative reaction. Welcome to football fandom. Here's the perfect opportunity to enjoy the brief relaxation that accompanies a bye week for the fans as well as some of the players.Every year, our beloved G-Men unfortunately have a less than stellar game/performance. Walk into a weekend off knowing it is over and hopefully part of the previous half of this 2012 season. Leave stress where it belongs: in the past where seven days ago remains. There is still football to watch. If you are that diehard and can't go without some Giants for a week (umm, ya' made it through the offseason), watch one of the many DVDs out there. They are seriously happier-ending ones, too." Read more..

text: For anyone who can't make the draft... You can preset the auction values for each player (or stick with the default) and it will auto-draft for you. From the main league page click on 'Edit Auction draft list' on the left side of the page and you can alter the values. The below is from ESPN: Each team in an Auction draft league will have an "Edit Auction Draft Values" link available on the top-right of their main My Team page. On this page each NBA player has a predetermined value (based on projected performance), which can be customized and saved. If no values are submitted pre-draft, the system recognizes the default ESPN Experts Auction Values. When the draft begins, the values are imported into the draft application. If you have set your values and are NOT online when the Auction is in progress, the system will bid up to that approximate value on every player. If you have NOT set your values, the default value will be used. In both cases, these values will only be used if you are on Autobid, in which case, the system will randomly vary between 50% and 110% of the set/default values.

Where I stayed
Hospedaje Wohlenberg
The hospedaje we are staying in has a lot to do with that feeling
Morning sunrise greeted us with a pink hue on the volcano (which is visible from every street in town), the very same volcano we were about to climb that day. With a >1400m elevation gain in <5 hours, we were a bit nervous, but we figured with 17 people in our group there must be people of all fitness levels, and we certainly wouldn't be the stragglers. We weren't. Apparently all this other trekking has paid off and we made the ascent with no problems! Also crampons are really awesome. The only problem was breathing at the top - not so much from the altitude but from the incredible noxious fumes of the volcano. Sara, unaware of the toxicity of the fumes, actually keeled over the other side of the mountain gasping for air after she first skipped up eagerly to view the bubbling lava. It made us think, how crazy, these noxious fumes are the very same chemicals that make the rich soil of the forests below, and the excellent mineral thermal baths throughout the area. This was a seriously active volcano. We stared deeply into the great hole in the Earth, totally humbled
If that wasn't enough excitement for one day, we then got to slide down little snow paths wearing a black diaper-like thing and a thin plastic circle with a handle, using our ice picks for "speed control" (read: used very infrequently). And once the snow and sliding paths were gone, we were treated to an entirely impact-free descent through the loose volcanic sand. It felt like being on the moon! Each step took us five times further than a normal step. We descended in 1 hour what had taken us over 4 hours to climb. What an incredible day.
The next day we debated between river rafting and a zip line/canopy tour. You can already see from the pictures which was the winner: eleven lines and over 3000 meters of zip lining through the jungle, over the Trancura river, from tree top to tree top. Since the tour group said we needed at least four people to make the trip we brought all three of the girls from our hostel - two from England and one from Switzerland. "Team Wohlenberg" had such a great time! And Jayson took some really kick-ass videos.
We finally figured it was time to move on from Pucon. We really felt like home here! It was a tough decision to finally buy tickets to move on to Santiago, but we knew we had to keep moving. Our tickets were for a night trip, so we spent the day hiking in Parque National Huerquehue, and little Elmut and the neighbor family came with us. It was one of the most beautiful hikes we've been on! (Although, how do we compare? Everything has been so beautiful beyond belief.) We saw some waterfalls over smooth granite rock, three lakes with perfectly clear reflections, and lots of incredible views of the volcano
In the evening we boarded the Pullman bus to Santiago, a 10 hour overnight ride on excellent leather seats with fluffy pillows and blankets and a super attentive staff. Saying goodbye to Pucon, and to Patagonia even, we waved out the window to Eric (our hostel daddy) who was waiting to wave as the bus pulled out of the lot.
P.S. Catch 22 in the grocery store: we wanted to buy a bottle of Cristal (beer) but they only had returnable bottles. They wouldn't let us buy one without returning an old one... How does one ever get the first bottle? Chicken or egg, chicken or egg??

huffman h = snd(huffer (zip (map snd h) (map (:[]) (map fst h))) [])
huffman h = snd(huffer (zip (map snd h) (map (:[]) (map fst h))) [])
Revision as of 22:39, 18 April 2011
(***) Huffman codes.
We suppose a set of symbols with their frequencies, given as a list of fr(S,F) terms. Example: [fr(a,45),fr(b,13),fr(c,12),fr(d,16),fr(e,9),fr(f,5)]. Our objective is to construct a list hc(S,C) terms, where C is the Huffman code word for the symbol S. In our example, the result could be Hs = [hc(a,'0'), hc(b,'101'), hc(c,'100'), hc(d,'111'), hc(e,'1101'), hc(f,'1100')] [hc(a,'01'),...etc.]. The task shall be performed by the predicate huffman/2 defined as follows:
% huffman(Fs,Hs) :- Hs is the Huffman code table for the frequency table Fs
import Data.List import Data.Ord (comparing) data HTree a = Leaf a | Branch (HTree a) (HTree a) deriving Show huffman :: (Ord a, Ord w, Num w) => [(a,w)] -> [(a,[Char])] huffman freq = sortBy (comparing fst) $ serialize $ htree $ sortBy (comparing fst) $ [(w, Leaf x) | (x,w) <- freq] where htree [(_, t)] = t htree ((w1,t1):(w2,t2):wts) = htree $ insertBy (comparing fst) (w1 + w2, Branch t1 t2) wts serialize (Branch l r) = [(x, '0':code) | (x, code) <- serialize l] ++ [(x, '1':code) | (x, code) <- serialize r] serialize (Leaf x) = [(x, "")]
The argument to htree is a list of (weight, tree) pairs, in order of increasing weight. The implementation could be made more efficient by using a priority queue instead of an ordered list.
Or, a solution that does not use trees:
import List -- tupleUpdate - a function to record the Huffman codes; add string -- "1" or "0" to element 'c' of tuple array ta -- let ta = [('a',"0"),('b',"1")] -- tupleUpdate ta 'c' "1" => [('c',"1"),('a',"0"),('b',"1")] tupleUpdate :: [(Char,[Char])]->Char->String ->[(Char,[Char])] tupleUpdate ta el val | ((dropWhile(\x -> (fst x)/= el) ta)==[])= (el,val):ta | otherwise = (takeWhile (\x -> (fst x)/=el) ta) ++ ((fst(head ha),val ++ snd(head ha)) : (tail (dropWhile (\x -> (fst x)/=el) ta))) where ha = [(xx,yy)|(xx,yy) <- ta,xx ==el] -- tupleUpdater - wrapper for tupleUpdate, use a list decomposition "for loop" -- let ta = [('a',"0"),('b',"1")] -- tupleUpdater ta "fe" "1" => [('e',"1"),('f',"1"),('a',"0"),('b',"1")] tupleUpdater :: [(Char,[Char])]->String->String ->[(Char,[Char])] tupleUpdater a (x:xs) c = tupleUpdater (tupleUpdate a x c) xs c tupleUpdater a [] c = a -- huffer - recursively run the encoding algorithm and record the left/right -- codes as they are discovered in argument hc, which starts as [] -- let ha =[(45,"a"),(13,"b"),(12,"c"),(16,"d"),(9,"e"),(5,"f")] -- huffer ha [] => ([(100,"acbfed")],[('a',"0"),('b',"101"),('c',"100"),('d',"111"),('e',"1101"),('f',"1100")]) huffer :: [(Integer,String)] -> [(Char,[Char])]-> ([(Integer,String)],[(Char,[Char])]) huffer ha hc | ((length ha)==1)=(ha,sort hc) | otherwise = huffer ((num,str): tail(tail(has)) ) hc2 where num = fst (head has) + fst (head (tail has)) left = snd (head has) rght = snd (head (tail has)) str = left ++ rght has = sort ha hc2 = tupleUpdater (tupleUpdater hc rght "1") left "0" -- huffman - wrapper for huffer to convert the input to a format huffer likes -- and extract the output to match the problem specification huffman :: [(Char,Integer)] -> [(Char,[Char])] huffman h = snd(huffer (zip (map snd h) (map (:[]) (map fst h))) [])
A relatively short solution:
import Data.List (sortBy, insertBy) import Data.Ord (comparing) import Control.Arrow (second) huffman :: [(Char, Int)] -> [(Char, String)] huffman = let shrink [(_, ys)] = sortBy (comparing fst) ys shrink (x1:x2:xs) = shrink $ insertBy (comparing fst) (add x1 x2) xs add (p1, xs1) (p2, xs2) = (p1 + p2, map (second ('0':)) xs1 ++ map (second ('1':)) xs2) in shrink . map (\(c, p) -> (p, [(c ,"")])) . sortBy (comparing snd)

PlayBook: A Little Orlando Magic
Dwight Howard is a Laker and Orlando is a little less magical.
Half of the people can be part right all of the time, some of the people can all right part of the time, but all of the people can't be all right all of the time.
I think Abraham Lincoln said that, or at least Bob Dylan did. Think he said that, that is. He was known as a man to mince words, and though he didn't always make sense he seemed to always make sense, which is more than we can say for this professional farce of a basketball league we keep hearing about and stumbling over.
Word out of L.A. is that Dwight Howard is heading to the Lakers in exchange for a pile of clean socks and some expired coupons from a Chick-fil-A somewhere outside Sausalito. Orlando Magic GM Rob Hennigan is ecstatic, proclaiming this a fine day for the Florida franchise.
"Never in the long history of the NBA has a GM been so hopelessly inept as I was here today," said Hennigan to an empty room, a press conference long since devoid of any press still pretending to be interested in the goings-on in Orlando. "We have so thoroughly fucked the dog on this one that no one will ever respect us as a professional sports franchise ever again. Ever. We turned down Brook Lopez, MarShon Brooks, a year of Kris Humphries and four unprotected picks from Brooklyn. We turned down any combination of Kevin Martin, Patrick Patterson, Marcus Morris, Chandler Parsons, draft rights to three players AND multiple first-round picks from Houston. It's amazing; no one has ever fucked something up so bad. It's fucking historic."
Indeed. Many people will remember this day as the day it all went sideways for Orlando; not only did they lose the best center of a generation, but they lost him to the Lakers, a one-time Finals rival and a twice rude mistress, having already stolen in another life the then-best center of that generation.
Adding insult to injury is the perplexing pile of players they did receive in return: G Arron Affalo and F Al Harrington from Denver, F Moe Harkless and C Nikola Vucevic from Philadelphia, F Josh McRoberts and G Christian Eyenga from the Lakers and five draft picks spread out over five years. But no Gasol. No Bynum. And no real return on investment. Somehow the three best players involved in this whole sordid affair (Howard, Andre Iguodala and Andrew Bynum) ended up elsewhere, anywhere, everywhere except Orlando.
Selah. The Lakers are Finals-bound now and Orlando will have to make do with whatever comes of Affalo and Al and the five protected picks they poached from perennial playoff contenders.
Meanwhile, the rest of the league is reeling in the wake of a big team that just got bigger. Acquiring Howard without having to give up Gasol is a big deal; the Lakers now have four bona fide stars who are at any given moment at least worth considering for a double team and a fifth man in Metta World Peace that will be so wide open for the wide-open three that it will be difficult to miss. Gasol can finally stop pretending to play the high post, Kobe can let up on having to play 48 minutes of half-court defense and Nash can pretty much do whatever the hell he wants with all the weapons at his disposal. And which of the small-ball big threes will stop them? The Bulls? The Heat? The Thunder with Kendrick Perkins look like the only team standing in their way, but one wonders with all that experience whether it will matter much when push comes to shove, when winning or losing a seven-game series means deciding which player isn't worth guarding, which Los Angeles Laker is the weakest link: Kobe Bryant or Steve Nash?
That's an unsettling thought to have to enter into a new year with. Coming off a Finals loss to the newly crowned kings in Miami, the Thunder thought that next year would be their year, that their time would come and come again. But they were only part right, and they can only ever be that part of the time. But that's better than being Orlando, who won't be all right for any amount of time for a long time.

Vinegar has a MSDS sheet. You can read the whole document here:
Part of that MSDS sheet says:
SKIN CONTACT: Contact may cause mild injury and burns from vinegars of 11% acetic acid and greater. Dilute solutions may cause dermatitis in some individuals.
EYE CONTACT: May cause severe burns and permanent corneal injury from concentrated vinegars. May be followed by blindness. High vapor concentrations may result in conjunctivitis.
INGESTION: Concentrated vinegars may cause pain, irritation and burns in mouth, gullet and stomach.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water may be used to dilute spills and reduce flammability.

2008 Dan Houser speaks at length about GTA IV
Grand Theft Auto IV - General News | @ 10:41 AM MDT | By Neil
Dan Houser is Creative Vice President at Rockstar Games, and he's given a rare, lengthy interview to Variety about all things GTA. In it, he provides his opinion that the original GTA team in Dundee, Scotland simply "fell apart" following arguments over whether the game could be made in 3D and he makes it clear that ultimately, the decision on where to set the next game lies firmly with the development team.
"New York came out as the obvious place because we�d never done it before. In the old games [Liberty City] was just vaguely East Coast-ish. It wasn�t New York and it wasn�t trying to be. And then we realized, why would anyone making a TV show in New York know it better than us now that we lived here 10 years?"Click here to read the full interview

This 2+2 program provides tech prep youth apprenticeship opportunities for students during the junior and senior years in high school and continues through at least a community college degree. The program combines worksite-based learning and school-based learning. It requires business/education partnerships and student/parent commitment.
This tech prep initiative is business-driven, derived from links among employer, educator, and employee. The Apprenticeship programs allow secondary or postsecondary entrance. The Fast-track Apprenticeship provides an Associate in Applied Science degree in 12 months, coupled with intensive worksite training. The consortium supports comprehensive business-driven, custom-designed curriculum reform, extensive staff development, career activities from 8th grade on (career awareness, Career Expo, Job Shadowing, Job Fair), aggressive recruitment, and total commitment from partners.
Consortium provides student training through the Student Leadership Academy.
Consortium provides worksite supervisor training through Worksite Training Workshops.
Consortium provides instructor mentors to monitor the postsecondary apprentices' academic and worksite progress.
Consortium provides occupational program competency guarantees.
Businesses pay community college tuition.
Businesses provide paid worksite experience for the duration of the apprenticeship.
Businesses guarantee full-time employment for apprentices upon their successful completion.
Participants are targeted for advanced-level positions in the business.
Selected Accomplishments
- Partnerships:
- Curriculum:
- Marketing/Communications:
- Institutional Commitment/Staff Development:
- Guidance and Student Support:
- Evaluation:
The WorkForce Challenge began in 1990 when local area businesses approached educators about preparing well-qualified job applicants. Intensive work by representatives from business, labor, education and the community led to this tech prep program. The federally mandated School-to-Work program led to the development of Illinois' statewide Education to Careers (ETC) program, which was based on the WorkForce Challenge model. Danville Area Community College (DACC) belongs to the East Central Illinois Education to Careers Partnership. The ETC is a comprehensive reform system and tech prep is a program within that system. The Danville Area Community College District 507 Tech Prep Consortium consists of the district's 12 high schools, the area's vocational center, and the college.
The consortium has apprenticeships with 22 sites in 5 career clusters: manufacturing technology, accounting, banking, consumer service management, and health occupations. Apprenticeships use a 5-point plan developed using Continuous Quality Improvement/Total Quality Management tools. Each industry designs its own apprenticeship and develops the curriculum with the education partners. All apprentices enter the Student Leadership Academy to empower the high school students to market tech prep to their peers and the community. Training includes leadership skills, communications skills, presentation skills, team building, and general information about the program.
The college, in cooperation with the Krupp Gerlach Company, offers the opportunity for up to 30 people to earn an Associates Degree in one year -- with fully paid tuition, books and fees. Students participating on the Fast-track Apprenticeship work 20 hours per week, and earn two salary increases during the year. There is potential for full time employment after completing the program; and the time worked applies toward benefit related waiting periods.
Mervis Industries, Inc., has established the Mervis Industries Tech Prep Scholarship through the Danville Area Community College Foundation. This $1,200 scholarship is granted to a tech prep student to be used for tuition and fees.
Through apprenticeship focus groups, representatives from worksites work directly with occupational course faculty to develop standards for instruction; identify necessary work skills that must be incorporated into the classroom; and determine documentation required to assess students' worksite progress. Through this partnership, 39 tech prep course sequences have been developed from 9th grade through the A.A.S. degree in 5 career areas. Each sequence has required academic and vocational courses as well as required worksite training for which the apprentices receive high school credit.
Applied Mathematics, Applied Communications, and Applied Biology/Chemistry curricula have been purchased for use in each high school, with inservice training provided. Tech prep funds have also been available for substitute teacher reimbursement for teachers needing time to work on applied academics, integration, and worksite learning activities.
DACC has articulated 25 courses so that tech prep students can receive college credit for skills learned in high school. The college also has articulation agreements with 4-year institutions in Illinois and Indiana, and with Lakeview School of Nursing.
The East Central Illinois Education to Careers Partnership Outreach Committee promotes tech prep. The consortium publishes a newsletter and garners extensive local media coverage. Business partners take an active marketing role: hosting business tours and roundtable discussions; making presentations; providing scholarships; and participating in career activities. Other examples of marketing include: career awareness videos; apprenticeship videos; Internet Web page; conference presentations; articles in high school newspapers; direct promotion to potential students; TV announcements; mini-commercials; brochures; scrapbooks; T-shirt design; Academy alumni reception; and plaques.
DACC's commitment to tech prep is evidenced by the college president serving as Co-Chairperson of the East Central Illinois Education to Careers Partnership. In addition, the college pays half of the coordinator's position and is picking up the full funding of this position next year.
The program continues to be a model for development of state school-to-work programs. The state selected the consortium to be a model demonstration site for rural tech prep, postsecondary tech prep, and youth apprenticeships.
The consortium provides extensive business-driven staff development about integrating workplace applications and employability skills into the classroom for all secondary and postsecondary educators. The week-long Educator Leadership Academy ensures partnership among secondary and postsecondary educators and business partners; educators spend three days at a worksite to learn about workforce needs.
Staff development activities include Continuous Quality Improvement training, the U. S. Department of Labor SCANS employability skills, WorkKeys, team-teaching, interdivisional instruction, national speakers, educator tours, the Educator Leadership Academy, and presentations by business partners on local businesses and the economy.
DACC offers extensive student support services through the Career Services Center, Career Services Department, Counseling and Academic Advisement, Opportunities Program, and Student Special Needs. Career awareness activities at the secondary level include videos, an eighth grade program, Career Expo, Job Shadowing, 11th/12th grade coop, extended campus, and Job Fair. The Student Leadership Academy is designed to empower students and give them the skills necessary for success in postsecondary education and the workplace; it includes peer tutoring by a DACC student.
The consortium has been involved with three major benchmarking projects. The first, University of Illinois Student Recruiting Benchmarking, led to the development of the Student Leadership Academy. The second is a National Center for Research in Vocational Education project called "The Community College and Beyond: How Tech Prep/School-to-Work Affects Students." The third is a CORD/Gallup Organization School-to-Work Index and Improvement Program.

Council confident brown water woes solved
Mostly agreeing that the city's problem with brown water is likely solved, the Pequot Lakes City Council on Tuesday, Dec. 4, adopted the 2013 fee schedule that includes water and sewer rate increases.
Mayor Nancy Adams cast the sole no vote regarding the fee schedule, saying those water rates should not increase until the city's problem with brown water was fixed.
The problem with recurring brown water dates back to the summer and is attributed to iron and manganese that coated the pipes over the years breaking off and floating in the water main.
The council considered adding chemical to the water system, but it appears that won't be necessary.
"I believe that we've fixed our problem. I've fixed it enough that we shouldn't have any more brown water," Lee Bundy told the council.
Bundy is facilities manager with the Pine River Area Sanitary District, which the city contracts with for services.
"It's in the lines and it will take using and drinking water to get it out," Bundy said, noting it's difficult to flush water lines in the winter because the water freezes on streets.
Bundy said the problem is a culmination of events that transpired over the years and has to do with the age of the wastewater facility.
"It's not properly backwashing," he said, noting only one of three cells was properly backwashing.
"It's like a wash machine that doesn't fully rinse out. There's dirty water left over," Bundy said.
Next week, a company is to go through the filter and check and measure all relays and valve openings to make sure all are operating properly, Bundy said.
He said they are correcting the problem as fast as they can.
The day of the council meeting, Dec. 4, they had taken care of another maintenance issue where they removed backwashed material that built up and was coming into the system.
"We have evidence the phone didn't ring at city hall today and we backwashed on Monday," Bundy said. "I think I can hold off the brown water from entering the system. But what's out there is out there and we have to use it up."
Before Bundy's explanation, council member Jerry Akerson agreed with Adams regarding water rate increase. Council member Dave Sjoblad disagreed, saying the problem is being worked on and is costing the city money.
Adams wanted to see no brown water for a month or two before increasing water and sewer rates.
Council member Tom Ryan said that since it appeared the problem was fixed, the city should continue with its plan to increase water and sewer rates.
The fee schedule was adopted, with Adams opposed.
Residential water rate will increase to $17.67 for the first 2,000 gallons (up from $17.32) and $6.62 for each additional 1,000 gallons (up from $6.49).
Residential sewer rates will increase to $20.07 for the first 2,000 gallons (up from $19.30) and $9.02 for each additional 1,000 gallons (up from $8.47).
Commercial water rates will increase to $19.87 for the first 5,000 gallons (up from $19.48) and $6.96 for each additional 1,000 gallons (up from $6.75).
Commercial sewer rates will increase to $21.29 for the first 5,000 gallons (up from $20.47) and $9.02 for each additional 1,000 gallons (up from $8.47).

There are no immediate fears for Paul Gascoigne's life but he is still receiving hospital treatment in the United States, his long-time therapist said yesterday.
The former England midfielder, 45, travelled to a clinic in Arizona earlier this week in a bid to tackle his alcohol addiction.
He suffered a bad reaction to a detox programme at the clinic and had to be transferred to a local hospital, but psychotherapist Dr John McKeown, who has worked with Gascoigne for over ten years, reported yesterday he was now "up and walking about".
Dr McKeown said in a statement: "Following reports today I feel it's appropriate to bring people up to date on Paul Gascoigne's condition.
"Paul has experienced severe complications with his detoxification. This is not unusual for someone who has been drinking as heavily as he has.
"Paul was transferred from the US Clinic Cottonwood to a local hospital to be monitored so as to be completely satisfied that there are no other complications to his health.
"He is still receiving that care but the hospital has reassured me that he is up and about walking. There are no fears for his life. We will aim to keep everyone concerned updated on a regular basis."
Gascoigne's management confirmed earlier this week that the former player had willingly been admitted to a treatment centre in the USA in another bid to conquer his addiction.
Former Spurs team-mate Gary Mabbutt told Sky Sports News: "Unfortunately over the last few weeks Paul has had a relapse, which culminated finally, last Monday, in Paul asking for help.
"By Monday afternoon he was on a plane out to Arizona to a clinic specialising in dealing with Paul's specific problems. The first thing he underwent was a detox, unfortunately Paul had a very bad reaction to
the detox and the clinic decided that as a precaution it was best to transfer him to hospital.
"He was transferred to hospital in intensive care where they could monitor him 24-7. But I spoke to Paul's medical team in the UK this morning, they had spoken to Paul and he's recovering and hopefully soon he will be back into the clinic to continue his rehab.
"Over the years he has had a lot of support from the football family, but of course it could be a long road to recovery. Now Paul's asked for the help we can focus on getting through this."
Gascoigne, who starred for England at the 1990 World Cup and is regarded as one of the most talented English players of all time, began his career at home town club Newcastle before moving on to
Tottenham. He was signed by Italian side Lazio before spells with Rangers, Middlesbrough and Everton among others in the latter part of his career.

anyone gotten queens from bostic hills farm, gordo al? any experiences?
I'm curious too. I'm here in AL and am wondering if it would be a good choice to requeen with.
didn't seem nothing special ,came a month late, had to play phone tag to get them
I paid for four queen back in feb. of this year, I have tried to get up with janet several times,. I get no response from either phone or email. this seams like a scam. if not she doesn't seem to care much about the customers.
I ordered some, kept sending emails no reply, luckily I paid with paypal and I got my money back. If you can't answer emails let alone phone calls I don't want to do business with you. Customer service says a lot!

Reviews of this property
I stayed at Damiano's for a week. He was not there, we never met in person only on email
its a three bedroom apartment with two bathrooms and one kitchen on the first floor. There is no living room or couch. there are locks on each bedroom door
it was clean, quiet and has wifi and parking and is a 15 min drive to center of Rome Originally, this ad did not say that all three rooms are rented out to strangers. ( he recently changed it to reflect the actual living situation)
I dont think he lives there? so when i arrived, i was not expecting to be sharing an apt with a nother person for a week.
It had not been explained before i booked that i would be staying there with someone Damiano has never met and i did not know either.
The location is very good – near to the metro (10-15 minutes walk) and three stations away from the Colloseum – it is a nice, clean and safe area. It has a supermarket, a cafe and several restaurants around the corner. The host is really friendly – a nice and helpful but not intrusive person. Although he lives in the flat, his presence did in no way interfere with our needs, on the contrary (we were also offered some handmade Italian cakes and coffee and were allowed to take bottled water and fruit before we had a chance to buy it).There is a second bathroom (which is big, king sized, neat, has a bath tub and a working heater, two towels pp); free, good working internet, we were also allowed to use the washing machine; the kitchen has everything you need. The room is light and tidy (with balcony), and the bed is really all right. There are a number of closets to store your clothes in. In a word, we really do recommend Damiano's place.
We enjoyed our stay. Damiano is the best. He is welcome, kind, smart and helped us with everything we needed. His home is very clean and neat and romantic. We are planning to come back because it was so wonderfull. You can rent bikes and eat your breakfast at the balcony. He helps you with your blisters and other inconvieneces. He knows a lot about rome and you can ask him anything. Rome sweet home! The neighbourhood is also nice. Lots of places where you can eat and nearby the subway and bus. We loved it! Greetings Arjen and Nathalie
I would recommend this apartment to anyone! Five stars***** ! It is very clean and nicely decorated. There is a kitchen where you can make your meals and keep food in the fridge. The apartment is well situated ... 10 min. to metro Garbatella - two stops from Colloseum There are shops around where you can buy food and other things. The apartment has a balcony where you can sit or hang your laundry - if you need to. There are trattorias and restaurants in the area .However, the best feature of the apartment was the host - Damiano, very helpful, accomodating and charming. He helped with information about tourist attractions. He made cornetto and coffee for breakfast. He recommended the best wine of the region. He provided access to a computer. He entertained with interesting conversation and humour. He was like a family member in Italy who cares about your vacation. Damiano is very reliable and dependable. He will go out of his way to ensure that you are well taken care of. My Roman holiday was excellent because he wanted to ensure I had a good time. Damiano makes himself available to all his guests. They can contact him at any time if they have any questions or need anything. Damiano's involvement goes well beyond renting a room - and that makes all the difference ! I would go back to this apartment any time!
Thank you very much damiano for your amiability. It was a great pleasure to stay in your place. It was absolutely great. Best regards, Lucian.
We had a great week at damiano the location is great to move bus stop is almost at the bottom of the underground house five minutes walk, many small businesses in the neighborhood, Damiano is always willing to help I opportunity again to thank and rosa
Nous avons passé une excellente semaine chez damiano la situation géographique est super afin de se déplacer arrêt des bus sont quasiment en bas de la maison le métro cinq minute à pied, beaucoup de petit commerce dans le quartier,damiano est toujours prêt à rendre service je profite à nouveau pour le remercier ainsi que rosa
We enjoyed our stay in Rome and at Damiano's place. It was a nice place to be and we could sleep very well in the quiet room.
Damiano gave us good advises and we enjoyed to share our experiences with him. He gave us the feeling to be at home instead of being strangers.
I enjoyed it very much to stay in Damiano's condominium. For everybody who prefers a non formal stay in non-hotel environment I can recommend these rooms. Damiano likes very much the contact with guests from other countries without beeing insistent in any way . He helps when ever it is needed. He helped me i.e. to pack my bycicle for the requirements of airplane transportation and took me with all of my luggage to the Airport. Damiano is fluent in english and also very good in german. We had interesting conversations. Thanks for the pleasant stay.
We really enjoyed our stay with Damiano. We had a nice, big room with a sunny balcony, could use the kitchen with everything we needed and there was a bright, clean bathroom. The apartement lies in a quieter suburbia of rome, with supermarkets right around the corner. It took 20 minutes to the center of rome as there is a Metrostation in 5 minutes walking distance. Damiano would join us at the breakfast for example and teached us some italian, gave us very good advice for tours and was always there to help. Thanks for this wonderful holiday!
Damiano is a very warm friendly person, he helped make my stay pleasant in Rome, which is fantastic His apartment and the rooms are nice, there is at home, in a beautiful and quiet interesting. There are many services available, immediately close two caveats, however: - I had the second bedroom and the upstairs neighbors were noisy with the furniture, the bus stop is almost in front of the building, but the schedules are not displayed and can wait for the bus we up to an hour (1/2heure weekdays), and there is no return in the evening by bus, no display coming to town either and So we do not know how long we have to wait standing I suggest taking the Metro 8 'foot is very easy, 10' drive in the city and is in the historical district, Rome is easily explored on foot Philippe
Damiano est une personne très sympathique, chaleureuse, il a participé à rendre mon séjour très agréable à Rome, qui est une ville fantastique
Son appartement et les chambres sont agréables, on y est comme chez soi, dans un beau quartier intéressant et calme.
Il y a de nombreux services accessibles, immédiatement à proximité
2 bémols toutefois:- j'avais la deuxième chambre et les voisins du dessus étaient bruyants avec les meubles- l'arrêt de bus est quasiment en bas de l'immeuble, mais les horaires ne sont pas affichés et on peut attendre le bus le we jusqu'à une heure(1/2heure en semaine), et il n'y a pas de retour le soir par le bus, pas d'affichage de passage en ville non plus et donc on ne sait pas combien de temps on doit attendre debout
Je conseille de prendre le métro 8' à pied, c'est très facile, 10' de trajet et on est en ville dans le quartier historique, Rome se visite facilement à pied

Detroit Film Theatre
(USA/2011—directed by Paul Mariano and Kurt Norton)
The documentary These Amazing Shadows weaves clips from America's most-beloved films (and some rare treasures) with moving personal tales of how specific films have reflected our culture and changed lives; appearing in the film are directors including Julie Dash, Christopher Nolan, John Lasseter, Rob Reiner, John Singleton, Barbara Kopple, and John Waters, producers, archivists, actors and members of the National Film Preservation Board. These Amazing Shadows documents the passage of the National Film Preservation Act of 1988 and how this law set in motion a system to identify notable films for preservation. The Librarian of Congress, with input from the public, selects 25 films each year to add to the Registry. These Amazing Shadows goes behind the scenes to show the discussions, the debates, and the drama that surround this selection process. This screening will be introduced by Julie Dash (Daughters of the Dust) and will by followed by a Q and A afterwards. (complete program approximately 2 hours)

Giving a snorkel(sucking ones balls while jerking the cock so it looks like a snorkel)in the shower.
I was taking a shower last night and your girlfriend snuck in to give me a Portland Snorkel and I nutted all over your shampoo bottle, sorry.
by Snorks March 19, 2007
Verb. When a girl is sucking on your balls and the shaft of your penis looks like a snorkel running parallel to the side of her face. If the girl is wearing glasses, it adds to the effect by mimicking goggles. Hence "Portland", because all the hot girls wear glasses.

Nebraska Athletic Medicine
Nebraska's Athletic Medicine staff is housed within the Charles and Romona Myers Performance Center.
Perhaps the finest collegiate athletic medicine facility in the nation, the Athletic Medicine Center is four times the size of its previous home inside the South end of Memorial Stadium.
The Athletic Medicine Center features a hydrotherapy area that includes a three-level laned pool, which allows student-athletes across all of Nebraska's sports to work out simultaneously. The Hydroworx 1000 Treadmill Pool is equipped with two cameras underwater for evaluation and assessment, while hot and cold plunge tanks are also available to the Huskers.The state-of-the-art hydrotherapy areas allow the Huskers to engage in rehabilitation and conditioning programs under the direct supervision of Nebraska's medical and training staff.
In addition to impressive hydrotherapy areas, the Athletic Medicine Center had a X-ray room complete with hospital-grade equipment. The Center also provides private areas for physical exams, an emergency medical procedures room, a licensed pharmacy, rooms designated for drug testing, braces and rehabilitation supplies and dental appliances.
The Athletic Medicine Center, paired with one of the most knowledgable and experienced medical and training staffs in the country, make Nebraska the leader in personal care in college athletics.
Lonnie Albers, M.D. serves as the Director of Athletic Medicine. Dr. Albers sees student-athletes with acute illnesses in the medical clinic located in the Athletic Medicine Center in the Osborne Athletic Complex. As a Family Practice physician with attending physician privileges in all three community hospitals in Lincoln, and with experience in coordinating referrals with specialists in all areas of medicine, he is able to respond to the wide variety of medical problems encountered in sports medicine.
Of vital importance to the success of any team is the protection of the athlete from injury, and the rapid return of the injured athlete to full speed. Head Athletic Trainer Jerry Weber has been serving Husker student-athletes and perfecting his skills as a dual certified Physical Therapist and Athletic Trainer for more than 30 years.
Weber draws assistance in his efforts from team of veteran certified athletic trainers in Mark Mayer, Brad Brown, Tom Dufresne, Jolene Emricson, Drew Hamblin, Marcia Kennedy, Lisa Loewenstein, R.J. Pietig, Ashley Rudolph, Jeff Rudy, David Rule, Julie Tuttle and Tyler Weeda.
An important goal of the Athletic Medicine program is to assist student-athletes in overcoming obstacles to their success in sports and in the classroom. The athlete confronted with overwhelming stress, substance abuse, disordered eating, or other impediments to success receives assistance. Nebraska Athletics has assembled a professional team that features both quality and depth in sports perfomance psychiatry, psychology and mental health services offered under the departmen's Athletic Medicine Program. Click here to read more about Nebraska's Mental Health Programming.
Sports massage therapy is a recently added service for athletes recovering from repetitive muscle strain. Amy Seiler, NU's massage therapist, provides sports massage therapy to student-athletes through the Athletic Medicine Center from 9-11:30 a.m. each weekday.
Sports nutrition is another important concern of the Athletic Medicine staff, and Sports Nutritionists Lindsey Remmers, Tommy Jensen and Lynn Zhang work with all 24 of Nebraska's sports to educate student-athletes on topics such as gaining weight, losing body fat, staying hydrated, increasing energy and supplement use.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1
This is all moot.......Coughlin will run Bradshaw until his foot falls off
Why waste time discussing it?
So you think TC doesn't want to win?
He has won 2 of the last 5 Super Bowls. I think he knows what he is doing.
well he wont win this one if he stubbornly refuses to replace mr 37 yds rushing per game...........Elis good.....hes not that good
and the lack of a rushing game means too much time on the field for our defense
Didn't they win last year with a horrible running game?
There is a reason Vince Lombardi called his book "Run to daylight"...........not "Pass to Daylight"

front and rear overhangs can really define the appearance of a car, whether such is minimized or exaggerated.for example,Daihatsu Charade Turbo,Lincoln Mk V,
wanna see the original cars?
voila,you can't make things like this up,ain't it cute?
The modified Mk V is badass. Bet it would drive amazingly.
It looks like a Gremlin.

That MKv is SICK!!!I love that thing! Both of them!The Camaro also had massive overhangs, but it still looked sexy.
the original Mark V image was from an ebay offering, apparently the beast was given an upgrade resulting in something like 600hp, the car was delicious, hot rod Lincoln!with those lines, making a "sawed-off" of it was tempting
I "turned the wrench" a bit more
I'm guessing that the more sharply cut Lincolns are more fun to shrink for the same reasons that they're more successful as stretches, the lines work better with varied lengths, or something like that.Eldorado,
That first MK V just looks awesome! I would love to have that thing.
I've had a covert mid-70s Continental fetish for quite the while.
hey hod do u upload pics to put on forums
The average age of a Lexus owner is 61
Hey, have you guys noticed how large the overhangs are on the new Passat?

Volume 7Introduction To The Seventh Volume
The co-editors and Editorial Board of Issues in Teaching and Learning (ITL) are pleased to bring you the latest issue of RIC's online journal. Things have changed a bit since the last issue, almost two years ago. First, the make-up of the ITL editorial team has changed. We'd like to thank Paul Saucier and Roger Clark for their contributions to ITL and we'd like to announce Mike Michaud (English) as co-editor with Joe Zornado of volume seven. Second, we've created an entirely new format for ITL which allows us to deliver this new issue right to your virtual mailbox.
We hope the seventh volume of ITL captures a timely snapshot of a few of the key issues effecting Rhode Island College right now. The Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning (FCTL) director Joe Zornado kicks off this issue with a commentary on the FCTL, General Education, and reflections on teaching Core 4. Joe is followed by Maureen Reddy (English) who provides an excellent overview of how the General Education Task Force facilitated the first major overhaul of the General Education program in nearly twenty years. A Symposium on The Teaching of Writing follows, featuring a series of short interviews with faculty around issues related to the teaching writing. Mike Michaud's piece focuses on the experiences of faculty who participated in the FCTL's 2011 Summer Seminar for the Teaching of Writing at RIC. Following Mike is Claudine Griggs (Writing Center), who profiles three RIC faculty who discuss their work to create a culture of writing at RIC. Mike and Claudine's pieces are followed by two interviews that focus on writing and science, the first by Chris Marco (Psychology) and the second by Karen Almeida (Chemistry). Following the Symposium on The Teaching of Writing, we shift towards the topic of teaching and technology. Tish Brennan (Adams Library) has penned a piece on trends in online learning and Chris Kunkel (Educational Leadership) shares her reflections on her participation in this past summer's teaching with technology workshop. Susan Gracia (Education) rounds out this volume with a timely discussion of assessment in higher education.
Volume seven covers a lot of ground. We hope you find the reading engaging and thought-provoking and we welcome your feedback at firstname.lastname@example.com. Or, join the firstname.lastname@example.com distribution list and continue the conversation there. If you'd like to join the distribution list, send an email to that effect to email@example.com.
A final note: we are excited to announce plans for volume eight of ITL, due out in late spring 2012, a special-theme issue called "Generations." We would like to invite junior, mid-career, and senior RIC faculty to contribute to this volume. If you are interested in sharing your reflections on your professional experiences as a teacher and your thoughts on current issues of teaching and learning in higher education, please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com by no later than January 27, 2012. We hope to hear from you.
In closing, on behalf of the entire ITL Editorial Board, we would like to wish you a warm and restful holiday season.
Co-Editors –
J. Zornado

If xyz = 1 and x+y+z =1/x + 1/y + 1/z show that at least one of
these numbers must be 1. Now for the complexity! When are the other
numbers real and when are they complex?
Show that x = 1 is a solution of the equation x^(3/2) - 8x^(-3/2) = 7 and find all other solutions.
This problem in geometry has been solved in no less than EIGHT ways
by a pair of students. How would you solve it? How many of their
solutions can you follow? How are they the same or different? Which
do you like best?
Published September 2004,February 2007,February 2011.
In introducing complex numbers, and the notation for them, this article brings together into one bigger 'picture' some closely related elementary ideas like vectors and the exponential and trigonometric functions and their derivatives.
Historically these numbers were thought of simply as mathematical tools useful in solving equations and called imaginary numbers . We call $x$ the real part and $y$ the imaginary part of the complex number and these terms were introduced by Descartes (1596 - 1650) whose
name gave rise to the term Cartesian coordinates. These so-called 'numbers' were treated with much suspicion by mathematicians for around another 200 years or so. Wallis (1616 - 1703) realised that real numbers could be represented on a line and made an early attempt to represent complex numbers as points in the plane. Then Wessel (1797), Gauss (1800) and Argand (1806) all successfully
represented complex numbers as points in the plane. Gauss introduced the name complex numbers in 1832. In the nineteenth century Cauchy, Riemann and other mathematicians incorporated complex numbers into analysis thus extending the analysis of real numbers and giving complex numbers equal status.
We shall now explain the result $$\cos \theta + i\sin \theta = e^{i\theta} = \exp(i\theta)$$ proved by Euler in 1748, which leads to the very striking formula $$e^{i\pi} = -1.$$
We assume that the reader is familiar with the fact that the derivative of $\sin \theta$ with respect to $\theta$ is $\cos \theta$ and the derivative of $\cos \theta$ is $-\sin \theta$. Hence the derivative of $\cos \theta + i\sin \theta$ is $$-\sin \theta + i\cos \theta = i(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)$$ so that $f(\theta)= \cos \theta + i \sin \theta$ satisfies the differential equation
$${\mathrm{d}f(\theta) \over \mathrm{d\theta}} = {i}f(\theta).\quad (1)$$ The exponential function is the function $g(x) = \exp(x)$ which satisfies the differential equation $${\mathrm{d}g(x)\over \mathrm{dx}} = g(x).$$ It follows that if $g(\theta) = \exp(i\theta)$ then $${dg(\theta) \over \mathrm{d\theta}} = i g(\theta).\quad (2)$$ but this is exactly the same differential equation as equation
(1) so the functions $f$ and $g$ can only differ by a constant as they have the same derivative. Putting $\theta = 0$ we see that $f(0)=g(0)=1$ so these two functions must in fact be identical. This proves that $\cos \theta + i \sin \theta = \exp(i\theta)$. Then putting $\theta$ equal to $\pi$ we have $\cos \pi = -1$ and $\sin \pi = 0$, thus $$e^{i\pi} = -1.$$ This proof uses differential
equations and it is not just an exercise in solving them.

Sullivan Community College Transfer Planning Guide For Students Wishing to Major in English
The English department at Binghamton University offers six majors (or "concentrations"). Students can choose from the following:
- Major in English Literature
- Major in English: Concentration in Global Culture
- Major in English: Concentration in Creative Writing
- Major in English: Concentration in Creative Writing and Global Culture
- Major in English: Concentration in Rhetoric
- Major in English: Concentration in Rhetoric and Global Culture
All of the six concentrations share four core requirements:
- One course in British Literature to 1660
- One course in British Literature 1660-1900
- One course in American Literature to 1920
- One course in literary theory and criticism
In addition, three of the six concentrations (English Literature, Creative Writing, and Rhetoric) require a Shakespeare course.
Most community colleges offer English Literature I and II courses that can fill the first two core requirements, as well as an American Literature I course to meet the third requirement. Most community colleges offer a Shakespeare course to meet the Shakespeare requirement, and some also offer a literary theory course for the theory requirement.
The three concentrations focusing on Global Culture share additional core requirements
(Binghamton courses fulfilling these requirements are listed on the department's website):
- One course in Globalization and Culture
- One course on Contestations of Nation in Literature and Culture (CNLC)
- One course in Global Cultural Productions (GCP)
All six concentrations require English electives, most of which are upper-level (numbered 300 or above).
For further information on required courses and electives, see the English Major Checklist.

The flat is like in the pictures, so it's clean. The location is perfect! It is near to the beach and the metro isn't so far away (5 minutes walk). The Wifi was realy good and fast :) A little supermarket is next to the apartment. We will see us again !
Kind regards from Switzerland
Okey standard. Allthough there was just 2 actual beds, the doublebeds are just thin madresses on wooden planks. The bathroom were really tight, but for a shorter stay its ok. No hot water the firts 2 days.
The girl that received us, Joanna, was very nice and punctual. We had no problem at all receiving the keys, everything was fine and the apartment is near the Tram and the Metro Station, very nice building and neighborhood, as a comment that we saw here, you can eat very good and not so expensive right across the street in the restaurant "Grillo". What we didn't like is that, in the first advertisement was not announced the deposit fee and how much was it, and a cleaning fee of 60 euros either. When we wanted to use the cups, they were not washed well even lipstick was on the edge of one of them and the 4 small ones that we needed were with stains of coffee in the base like they just stored them dirty. But the apartment was very clean and very comfortable and I would recommend it.
Alles TOP verlaufen, gerne wieder
El apartamento es muy acogedor, limpio y cómodo. Es pequeño pero perfecto para dos o tres personas, tal cual aparece en las fotos.
La zona dell'alloggio è tranquilla e ben collegata con i mezzi pubblici, peccato che le coincidenze dei mezzi devi scoprirli tu perché non sono fornite. L'abitazione è accogliente come descritto e come si vede dalle foto. I servizi complementari (necessario per igiene, lavaggio, pulizia) nonché lenzuola e asciugamani non sono stati soddisfacenti. Nel complesso ci tornerei.
Muy buena estancia, aunque nos fallo el gps y tardamos un poco en llegar y nos cobraron el recargo... En resumen el piso muy limpio, con algunos fallos pero bastante bien. El restaurante de abajo riquisimo y bastante bien de precio.
El apartamento es tal cual en la foto. Esta bien situado y lo mas importante para el verano, tiene aire acondicionado. Las camas son comodas y tiene practicamente de todo para poder cocinar. Como puntos negativos, el aire tiene un cubo de agua que se llena rapidamente y esa gotera molesta a la vecina de abajo. Nos pusimos de acuerdo con la propietaria a la hora de llegada y la verdad que bien, ninguna molestia durante nuestra estancia, y a pesar que no me gustaba el metodo de fianza, entiendo que es comodo para no tener que ir a ningun lugar de vuelta.

Maree I never got my mum's recipe for the egg and bacon pie we had growing up. When quiches came in I was a teenager and they seemed an elegant creamy version of an egg and bacon pie.
10 minutes later....
I found the recipe! http://recipevintage.blogspot.com.au/20 … 1960s.html I am pretty sure the one we had was that simple, and I am not even sure the eggs were that well beaten, I remember it as blobby swirls of yellow and white.
There is a beautiful English egg and bacon pie with pastry top and bottom, but ours was extremely simple. I am so glad to have found the recipe.

Bloating, belching, gas and gas pains can be embarrassing and uncomfortable. Here's what causes these signs and symptoms — and how you can prevent them.
Bloating, burping and passing gas are natural and are usually caused by swallowed air or the breakdown of food through digestion. You may experience gas and gas pains only occasionally or repeatedly in a single day.
When gas and gas pains interfere with your daily activities, there may be something wrong. Find out how to reduce or avoid gas and gas pains, and when you may need to see your doctor.
When gas doesn't pass through belching or flatulence, it can build up in the stomach and intestines and lead to bloating. With bloating, you may also have abdominal pain that can vary from mild and dull to sharp and intense. Passing gas or having a bowel movement may relieve the pain.
Bloating may be related to:
To reduce bloating, it may help to avoid or reduce the amount of gas-producing foods you eat. Many carbohydrates cause gas, and the following items are common culprits:
Belching or burping is your body's way of expelling excess air from your stomach. It's a normal reflex caused by swallowing air. You may swallow excess air if you eat or drink too fast, talk while you eat, chew gum or suck on hard candies, drink carbonated beverages, or smoke.
Acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can have the same effect. If stomach acid backs up into your esophagus, you may swallow repeatedly to clear the material. This can lead to swallowing more air and further belching.
Some people swallow air as a nervous habit — even when they're not eating or drinking. In other cases, chronic belching may be related to inflammation of the stomach lining (gastritis) or to an infection with Helicobacter pylori, the bacteria responsible for some stomach ulcers.
You can reduce belching if you:
Intestinal gas is typically caused by the fermentation of undigested food, such as plant fiber, in the colon. Gas can also form when your digestive system doesn't completely break down certain components in foods, such as gluten or the sugar in dairy products and fruit.
Other sources of intestinal gas may include:
Sometimes, gas indicates a digestive disorder, such as irritable bowel syndrome or lactose intolerance.
To prevent excessive gas, it may help to:
Bouts of excess bloating, belching and gas often resolve on their own. Consult your doctor if your symptoms don't improve with changes in eating habits or you notice:
These symptoms could signal an underlying digestive condition. Intestinal symptoms can be embarrassing — but don't let embarrassment keep you from seeking help. Treatments are available.

EH-Net Search Question for Members
I just added a feature to the site search results using the search box at the top of the the site next to the tabs. It now has the ability to search not only the main site but also the forums. I'm pretty happy about that.
The Forums have their own separate search features that handle only forum content, but it has more advanced search capabilities than the overall site search does. So the question is:
Should we keep the Forum Search Box (and thus keep both) or delete it in favor of the new site search?
