Here's what you know about these waffles by looking at that picture: they are big, fluffy, buttermilk waffles swimming in Vermont maple syrup. Here's what you can't tell from looking at the picture: the waffle batter is made with a generous dose of brown sugar. Here's what else you can't tell from the picture: the waffle batter also contains chopped up pieces of bacon that was cooked up with a lavish coating of brown sugar that got all melted and caramelized as the bacon cooked. That's right. There are pieces of brown sugar bacon baked right into that waffle up there. Right. Into. The waffle. I have to go lie down now.

Windows 8.1 apps, just like that of Windows 8's, run in the background to keep you updated with all the latest happening from that app. The apps run in the background automatically when you turn on your PC and some who require internet get activated when you are connected to an internet connection. But, sometimes these apps start consuming a lot of memory which may slow down your PC.
Some of the apps like Mail, Store and weather keep running in the background and they often consume a lot of memory while running. Although, these apps require your permission to run in the background when you launch the app for the first time but, they may start behaving unexpectedly after a short period of time.
It is important that you make sure that the app runs automatically in the background. Some of the apps might run in the background once you use them for once. If you think apps are running the background once you have closed them then, you may have to permanently close the apps by following the instructions found in this article.
For those of you who are annoyed by the running of some particular apps in the background can easily turn off their functioning in the background to free up memory.
Follow the instructions below to remove the apps from automatically running in the background to free up memory.
First of all, open up the app which is running in the background. For me, Mail app was running in the background automatically.
Tip:You can open up Task Manager to see which apps are running in the background.
Once the app is open, press 'Windows key + I' or swipe from right and select 'Settings'.
Your Settings Charm will open. Here press 'Permissions'.
Your Permissions section of the Charm bar will open where you would see all the permissions which the app has. Turn off the switch under 'Lock Screen' by moving it to the left side.
Note:Restricting the app from running in the background will also disable the lock screen notifications of that app.
Once turned off, the app will never run again in the background.
That's all! You can repeat the same process for apps which run in the background.
You may visit our Tips & Tweaks section for more tips, tricks and tweaks about Windows 8.1 and its apps.

Foot Problems in Diabetic Patients | Narrowing of Blood Vessels, Losing Sensation are Main Problems in Diabetics
People are paying no protection for their feet. In this busy Hi-tech world, many people do not really care about their feet. People begin thinking and show interest on their feet only when they suffer from a severe pain or injury in the leg. But this type of negligence is not good. As India is becoming hub for diabetes, patient's lot of awareness is required among the people. Amongst every seven diabetes patients one is suffering from acute feet problem. According to survey report 15% of people are losing their legs in order to save their lives.
Diabetes patients are more likely to develop leg and foot problems than those without this disorder. Due to increase of sugar level in blood Diabetes patients will have poor blood circulation and damage in nerves. These complications can lead to amputation. In this way various small problems in the feet leads to a bigger losses. Don't forget that a little concentration on all these problems can help to get rid of these problems.
Foot Problems in Diabetes Patients
Reduce in sensation: The sugar content in the blood will be higher than normal for some period of time which leads to nerve problems and it is known as 'peripheral neuropathy'. This sensation problem is found in foot and the pain related signals are sent to brain through the nerves. Due to less sensation in foot we will not be feeling the pain, injuries and blisters in the leg. So the chance of getting injuries is high which leads to faster growth of severe wounds.
Narrowing of blood vessels: In diabetic patients the fat gets stored at atheroma walls and it leads to improper blood circulation. The probability of arteries becoming narrow and less flexible is more and it is termed as Atherosclerosis. Due to this the blood flow will not be proper to all the parts of the body. Even in legs also the fats get stored in atheroma walls and it succumbs to various problems. Due to these small injuries, cuts and gradually leads to big wounds .lack of sensation and feeling pain the situation become miserable.
Adverse Consequences of diabetes
Long term diseases and Increase in age and mainly due to diabetes not under control for a longer time are the causes for reduce in the sensation. Smoking, laziness, higher cholesterol, high BP and increase in weight shows higher risk in legs. In men the rate of fats getting stored in blood cells is high and the chance of blood circulation is less. Mainly people having calluses and for the people having higher pressure under sole the rate of wounds is high.
- Generally the infection rate is high in diabetes patients. Some times in order to save the life we may have to remove finger, feet and legs. So in order to prevent all these problems taking early precautions is necessary.
Taking Care of Wounds in Diabetic Patients
- When wound itches immediately consult doctor. In order to prevent from infection, bandage should be tied to it.
- If possible wear specially made shoes to get rid of stress on foot.
- It is mandatory to take antibiotics if the wound or surrounding it has infections.
- The bandage tied to the wound should be changed frequently under doctor's supervision.
- If the wound becomes severe then it is removed along with the dead cells in it by a small operation.
- Based on the size of the wound and in order to make the wound
- Bypass or widening of arteries is required for the patients having weak atheroma cells. Due to weak atheroma cells in the body the blood circulation will not be proper.
Prevention of Foot Problems in Diabetics
- As we all know that prevention is better than cure. Preventing the diabetes is also good in all the ways. Suppose if we are suffering from cholesterol, BP along with diabetes, taking treatment is compulsory. Mainly people having smoking habit must stop it immediately.
- All the diabetes patients must have to go for a foot check up with the doctor at least thrice in a year.
Feet Test for Diabetic Patients
- All Diabetes patients must examine their feet at least once in a week. They must observe their feet and toes for any cuts, redness to a change in nail color, any calluses, and blisters on the skin and mainly between fingers. Even though they have slight problem they should take help of others to examine the problems.
- If discover any swelling, redness, pain, tingling, or numbness, call doctor. Any pain in legs after a little activity or at night can be a sign of a blocked artery — call doctor immediately. The soles of feet get very dry, scaly and itchy, particularly in summer.
- Be sure that doctor examines feet at least once a year or whenever notice a problem.
- Carefully wash feet in lukewarm water daily. Use a soft towel to dry them, including between the toes. Use lotion or cream to soften callused areas. If feet perspire, use a non-medicated powder to keep them dry and prevent skin breakdown.
- Don't use alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, astringent, or iodine on feet.
- See a professional for nail clipping, especially if having any problems with feet, such as numbness or hard nails.
- Don't treat feet with over-the-counter callus and corn remedies, and don't trim those growths self.
- Keep the floor at home or work clutter free to avoid accidents.
- Look at socks for blood spots or other fluids. White socks are the best choice.
- Select comfortable, sturdy shoes that fit right. Wear new shoes for just an hour or two at a time to break them in so that won't develop sore spots.
- Before putting on shoes, check them for little stones or tears that could irritate feet.
- Generally, try to avoid anything that can hurt feet. This can run the gamut from socks that are too tight or those with seams that can cause irritation to avoiding hot water, heating pads, and electric blankets which might burn a numb area of skin without being aware of it. Going barefoot can leave feet vulnerable to cuts, puncture wounds, and splinters.
- Clean feet daily, using warm—not hot—water and a mild soap. Avoid soaking feet. Dry them with a soft towel and dry carefully between toes.
- Always wear shoes or slippers to protect feet from injuries. Prevent skin irritation by wearing thick, soft, seamless socks.

Three way switch mess
1 Attachment(s)
Ok, before I start with this, there are a couple of things that I have to let you know... Some of the wires are inaccessable / unchangeable. There was also an error made when wires were being cut, which can't be fixed / reset now.
Our house has knob and tube in the walls and ceilings. Over the last three weeks we have removed all of the knob and tube from the attic and have run all new wires for receptacles and lights on the second floor. There is one exception - the three way switches that run the lights in the upstairs.
There are three lights and one switch in the upstairs hall. There is one light and one switch in the downstairs hall - the downstairs light and the downstairs switch are the ones that I can't change or access the wires to. We believe that the wires were changed when the bathroom floor was ripped up, because they are newer wires, but they are attached in the walls.
Initially, my plan for the lights and switches was to carefully trace where and how everything was connected and then attempt to duplicate it minus the KaT wires. However, due to a miscommunication a number of wires were cut and pulled without the cutter noting where they went or what they connected to.
In the attic, there was woven covered romex that connected to the KaT in a number of different places. There is also woven romex that goes down into the wall to the downstairs. The woven romex goes to the downstairs light, but newer, plastic covered romex goes to the downstairs switch. There was no plastic romex in the attic - there are junctions somewhere in the walls. Two pieces of cloth covered romex come out of the floor in the attic.
So, I did the best I could and traced back the wires to where I thought they were and went from there. The upstairs switch had two romex running to it, black and white were connected to the switch from one and white only from the other. The white-only wire went up to the attic and connected to the KaT. The other romex ran down the joists and connected to one of the wires that drop through to the first floor. A second piece of romex connected to the KaT and then went down the joist to the other wire that drops to the first floor. The connection to the upstairs lights was the one that was "lost."
Below is the best drawing I could make from what was in the attic after the wires were cut and removed. I do not know exactly how the lights connected to the romex from the KaT.
I re-wired everything, and tried to follow the same setup, and then tie it into the finished wiring.
First, I found out the hard way that there was power getting to the three way wires when they weren't connected (or at least hadn't been connected by me!) Not full current, but one heck of a buzz.
So we tried again, and the downstairs light was on, but when I turned it off from upstairs it flipped the breaker. Then I tried it again, and it was on, but wouldn't turn off from either switch.
I have now stopped because I don't know if the problem is that something in the switch broke when the breaker tripped, or if the problem is the wiring. I have new 3 way switches, but if it's going to break them if I trip the breaker, I'm not going to keep on trying things - they are too expensive to waste like that!
Thoughts? I'm sure that's all clear as mud... but I tried to cover everything. I'm sure there are a million things I missed that you need to know - so ask questions or try to read my mind! :laughing:
You are not permitted to modify K&T wiring. If you touch it you must replace it. K&T runs single wires all over the place. It not possible simply replace it with new NM cable. You need to start over and run the required cable for the required functions. sometimes you have to make holes in the walls. There is no way around it.
I don't not understand your drawing at all. Cloth romex? how many wires? how is it connected? What's that black squiggle line?
Are you trying to get the three light to work together off the two switches?
Every bit that I touched I removed. I did not touch the stuff in the walls, if I could access it I'd remove it. Every inch of the upstairs is now rewired - to the current total of 750 feet of Romex. The remaining KaT is in the ceiling of the first floor. It runs out of the wall upstairs and connects in the panel. I didn't change anything with that, nor can I. I have no idea how they got it in there, and I'm not planning to attempt removal.
The black squiggle is the mystery of three wires (two plastic one cloth) turning into two wires (both cloth) inside the walls between the first floor and the attic.
The old set up was two switches controlling three lights. I want the same thing to work now.
Perhaps Romex is the wrong name for the stuff? I looks just like the Romex I bought, but instead of plastic around the two wires and ground, it is black woven material with a slightly metallic silvery paint over it.
Ditto what Joed said. Double ditto.
You said " every bit i touched, i removed".
No dancing here. The safety of your family is on this.
You can't replace part of the circuit. The WHOLE CIRCUIT must be replaced.
The part inside the ceiling and walls, while HARDER to replace, is just as
dangerous as the rest.
When you say wires do you mean cables? Until you figure out where the wires/cables go there is nothing I can do to help you.
If it was in the attic, I replaced it. The stuff in the walls/ceilings has been there for God only knows how long and will be staying there. Currently I have nine ceiling lights on one 15 amp breaker, this is a vast improvement from four weeks ago when my KaT was also powering my refrigerator, and a number of outlets on the first floor.
The only mystery wires in the attic are the ones that go down to the first floor and connect to that one switch and one light. I truly "get" what you're saying, but we've been in this house for five years, and updated this as soon as we found it. (we had no idea that the KaT was actually powering more than half the house, as soon as I found it we started ripping into it. It's fine for lights. Not so fine for refrigerators!!!!
In Michelle Land, in this context, "wires" means the unit of three copper wires (the coated hot and neutral and the uncoated ground) that are inside of another wrapping keeping them together. I have some in my wall that is plastic on the outside, some that is cloth on the outside, and the stuff that I installed is the normal 14/2 Romex brand.
With two exceptions, the closet switch and light in two rooms, we re-ran every inch of wire in the attic and second floor. The two closets we left were already Romex (cloth outside, not plastic) and the wires were really difficult to pull so we left them.
I haven't re-wired the fridge receptacle or basement yet, so they just don't have power until I have a chance to get down there. The fridge is running off of a 20 amp dedicated circuit via extension cord for the time being. Not ideal, but far better than what we were doing before (without realizing it!)
I understand this is not ideal, and since you're not here can't see the whole thing. But I'd like to trouble shoot the switch wiring problem without breaking any more switches or shocking myself!!
Then you need to make new drawing showing where all the cables go and tell us what the cables are. Are they 2 wire + ground or 3 wire + ground. We don't really care about the grounds. They simply all get tied together in all the boxes. Then we might be able figure something out.
Three way switches require some three wire cable. If you didn't use any then you are probably going to need to change some of those cables.
I will make a new drawing when I get home. All of the cables are two wires plus ground. What I pulled out was also two wires plus ground. None of the wires were three wire cables

The biggest question I have right now is this: if I experiment with the wires on the switches, and I guess wrong will it ruin them?
The new switches have a screw labeled "common" but I have no way of knowing which wire is common to both, since I can't get to the downstairs wires.
This setup was functioning with all two wire cables up until last week, so I know it's possible.
I do not know which wires were attached to which screws in the downstairs switch, as my helper cut the wires without labeling them.
You have what appears to be the remains of what is called a California three way. The only part that looks useful is the 2 wire cable between the lights in the attic and the power junction box.
The proper way to make this work it to eliminate all the rest and add the following.
From power feed junction box
3 wire cable to upper switch box
3 wire cable to lower switch box.
2 wire cable to lower light. This cable might already exist as the 2 wire cloth covered cable.
AS has already been stated you are messing the K&T. Replace it all. You are not permitted to alter it.
Perhaps a better question - in my switch boxes, I have two sets of two wires.
without the switches installed, which wires should create a circuit?
I know that one of the four wires in each box will not be used, and in the upstairs box, I know which one that is (or was) I do not know which one in the downstairs box was unused.
Without knowing EXACTLY where all the wires go it is impossible to even give you wrong answer that will work.
so... will tripping the breaker due to cross wiring ruin the switches if I decide to wing it? Apparently it broke the old one, which is why I ask...
So I thought I'd post a followup to this now that it's solved.
I hired an electrician to come in and help me. That's a huge step for me... :laughing:
It took two of us five and a half hours to sort out the mess. We went up and down the stairs about 100 times testing switches, wires, mapping what went where and looking for the mystery wires.
So, he tests one set of wires by plugging them in and POW! blows a connection in the wall. :eek: Turns out it was the best thing that could have happened. We found a mess of wires that were twisted together under the floor boards in one of the bedrooms. No junction box, no nothing. Just twisted together - and one of them didn't even have a wire nut on it!
So, the switch at the bottom of the stairs ran through the light at the bottom of the stairs, then to the knot of wires in the floor, then to the attic. The wires also pass through a chunk that was cut out of the joist and join up to the two plastic Romex wires that go to the downstairs switch. So we still have an unknown set of connections, but did pull one new wire to the attic.
We put a junction box under the floor, and reattached the floor board with screws instead of the nails that were there. (and of course, I broke two boards trying to get the nailed ones up, so that's another project... ugh.) But at least that's done correctly now. When I redo the bathroom, I'll find the remaining wire connections and fix that step.
Had he not created that short, which actually blew apart one of the connections, we never would have found mess #1 under the floor. I'm guessing there is an equal mess under the bathroom floor, but that's got to wait because I really can't get into ripping up the bathroom right now!
So, we have light now! YAY!

Recently I was working with a large web based company with Tealeaf CEM tools and happened on an issue/opportunity that would save the client double-digit-millions of dollars. Having worked with Omniture as a consultant and HP as a web analyst, I had to think back if I would have discovered this same issue with the other web analytics toolsets.
As I thought about it, the resounding response was, "Yes, yes I could have found that issue with a web analytics package." The difference is the process, and how the process fits in with the client's/company's processes.
—Now I don't want to make this into another "my tool is better than your tool" post. I promise not to do that, I just wanted to point out the difference in processes that could be used to find the same issue.—
I'm not going to be the guy that pretends there are hard lines between CEM tools and Web Analytics tools. Those lines are crossing every day. It's just a big Venn diagram that keeps pushing in towards the center. I think most of us who use both tools realize that. The differences are the angles and the processes. At this point I highly respect the companies that use both a web analytics toolset and Tealeaf products. You can find different things with each tool, sometimes it is hard justifying both toolsets to the execs, but they both have their unique value propositions (which also happen to overlap more and more as years go on).
There are 2 types of web analytics issues/opportunities that can be found on a web site, your low hanging fruit and your high hanging fruit. When I was a consultant at Omniture, the head of consulting espoused finding the low hanging fruit: 1- because it was easy to do and 2- many times there is just as much value in the low hanging fruit than in the high hanging fruit. The problem I had with that, I was always handed the high hanging fruit and I had the wrong tools to get at them. Often the anomalies were handed my way because I was the guy that knew how the system worked. I either found the heart of the issue (through a lot of hard work) or failed because I just couldn't get high enough up the tree or broke a couple of branches in the process. It was a high risk position with very little reward. I simply lacked the right tools. That is why it was so refreshing for me to discover Tealeaf. Tealeaf is the ladder that I can place against the fruit tree to get at that high hanging fruit that no one is touching in the web analytics world. The web analytics world can definitely see some juicy fruit high up there, but often just can't reach it…
The same can be said about Tealeaf getting at the low hanging fruit in the web analytics world, it can be done, but you have to try it from the top of the ladder. Thus the Venn diagram analogy…
So here is the process that I went through to find the problem. I want to compare it to web analytics processes I would expect to see from two different types of companies:
1.A large company that has strict release dates and heavy control on client side scripting.
2.A mid-size company with virtually no restrictions to update the implementation.
First I discovered that a particular browser had lower conversion rates than other browsers. OK, this one is easy to find in both a web analytics tool and Tealeaf. So we know there is a problem.
1.Large Company: Easy to find
2.Mid-Size Company: Easy to find
Now I need to know if this is related to a specific checkout process. Easy to do in Tealeaf, just add each checkout process as its own event (takes minutes) and let the data chug.
1.Large Company: Hopefully separating out varying checkout processes was thought through. I'll assume it was, so easy to do.
2.Mid-Size Company: Even if it wasn't thought out it should be easy to have an engineer add in the tracking for each process. May take an hour, may take a day or two. Let the data chug.
It is related to a single checkout process. Replaying a few browser sessions I see a common occurrence, a message telling users to update the security in their browser. This is where the split often happens between CEM and web analytics.
1.Large Company: To find this issue there is a lot of digging that needs to happen. You can pull up the browser in question and walk through the process hoping you have the same issue, but often, if QA didn't see it you won't see it.
2.Mid-Size Company: Same as a large company.
Now I want to see how prevalent the security message is for that browser in the process. Maybe there is a common occurrence between these sessions that will help pinpoint the problem. I add an event to the security message (minutes to do) and let the data chug.
1.Large Company: If the security message was discovered, but there was no way to find that it happened in the web analytics tools, then need to update the implementation. If it requires server side coding you could be looking out 3 months for the next release date. If there is less concern around client side scripting AND you can identify that the message was displayed by looking in the DOM, you could get at it a little quicker.
2.Mid-Size Company: If the security message was discovered, and no way to see it in the analytics tools. Just implement further tracking. May take an hour, may take a day or two. Let the data chug.
I was able to determine that the message appeared for N% of users on that browser. And the conversion rate for those that saw the message was rather low. Now replaying those specific sessions, I see a series of clicks and page views that lead up to the message. Now let me create a sequence event to track how often those series of events occur. Now let the data chug.
1.Large Company: Sequence events are nearly nonexistent in an out of the box web analytics tool. May be able to get at this with some advanced segmentation or data warehousing.
2.Mid-Size Company: Same
Using the sequence event, I was able to determine that 99% of the time it was this sequence that created the security message. "Bag it and tag it"! Time to pass on the data AND the replayable sessions to QA, Product Management and Engineering. It is then added to the list of bugs to fix.
1.Large Company: Finally able to determine the cause of the low conversion. Now, convincing Product Management and Engineering is a whole other ball of wax.
2.Mid-Size Company: Finally. Now get in a room with everyone and talk it through. They'll see the issue easy enough. Added to the list of bugs to fix.
The difference here, with CEM tools I was able to pull out the problem and pinpoint in less than a day. By providing real evidence to the engineering group, the issue was taken seriously and the fix was added to the list.
With web analytics tools we may eventually get there, but it will take days to months to completely flesh out the problem. Convincing engineering will take some more time if you are in a large company.
Once again, this is not a "MY TOOL IS BETTER THAN YOUR TOOL" post. There are different processes that get you to the same solution. I just feel like I'm climbing a ladder with Tealeaf rather than struggling up branches to get to those high hanging fruits in the web analytics world.

Prayer of the Dragon (2007)
by Eliot Pattison
No current Talk conversations about this book.
The only thing that makes a good mystery novel better is one in which the author teaches. You might learn how to dance with the devil in the pale moonlight or in the case of this one the cultural and religious similarities between Tibetans and Navajos. My only critique is the pacing of the novel is extremely slow; painfully slow, thus making a 5 star mystery reduced to a three star read.
Another Shan mystery located in Tibet. Shan is summoned to a remote village to save an elderly monk. He finds murder, gold, a Chinese scientist and his nephew as well as a Navajo women tracing cultures of both Tibet and the Navajo. As always the reader is educated about Tibet and its cultures as Shan solves the case mindfully. Recommended

Mike Green will miss a third consecutive game with a groin injury after skating in warmups prior to Saturday's matinee contest and final meeting of the regular season against the New Jersey Devils.
Prior to the game, Coach Adam Oates cautioned that Green would need to be confident that he could "play 100 percent because I can't have him go two shifts and then get hurt." Apparently after taking line rushes alongside Karl Alzner, it was determined Green wasn't ready.
Braden Holtby (4-6-0, 3.62 goals-against average, .891 save percentage) will make a sixth consecutive start this afternoon for the Capitals. New Jersey will go with back up goaltender Johan Hedberg (2-1-1, 1.72 GAA, .935 save percentage) presumably because they host the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday.
Just because he's the backup to Martin Brodeur, though, doesn't mean Hedberg should be underestimated according to Oates.
"If you look at his numbers the last two years, not much of a drop off," Oates said. "He's a really, really good goalie and that's going to be part of our meeting."
Faceoff: 12 p.m. Verizon Center | TV: CSN | Radio: 106.7
Based on warmups here's what the Capitals lineup should look like:
Goal: Holtby, Neuvirth.
Scratches: Mike Green (groin), Marcus Johansson (upper-body) and Roman Hamrlik.

Chilean Inflation Expectations Climb After January CPI Surprise
Chilean traders' inflation estimates jumped after a government report showed consumer prices rose more than expected last month.
The one-year break-even inflation rate, a measure of swaps traders' expectations for price increases, rose 23 basis points to 3.07 percent at 11:51 a.m. in Santiago. The peso slid 0.1 percent to 472.69 per dollar and headed for a 0.2 percent decline in the week. The currency is the second-best performer in Latin America this year, with a 1.4 percent gain.
Consumer prices in the world's top producer of copper rose 0.2 percent in January, pushing up the annual inflation rate to 1.6 percent from 1.5 percent at the end of last year. While that annual rate is still below the central bank's 2 percent to 4 percent target range, it's above traders' estimates for a 1.5 percent reading. The Standard & Poor's GSCI gauge of 24 commodities has rallied 5.3 percent this year, reaching a five- month high today.
"We're importing more inflation because of the positive start to the year for commodities, and it's not being offset by an appreciation of the peso," said Sebastian Ide, head of rates trading at Banco de Chile in Santiago. "This greater inflation won't be reflected in the monetary policy rate and that means the curve should steepen."
Chile ended 2012 with the slowest inflation among major Latin American countries and the fastest economic growth behind Peru, according to analysts polled by Bloomberg. A reduction in tax on loans had less impact on prices in January than expected, economists at IM Trust SA wrote today in a note to clients.
The peso has held in a range between 471 and 474 per dollar since the end of January as concern that the central bank or government would act to slow its appreciation stops it pushing through 470 per dollar. Without the threat of intervention the peso would have advanced to around 460 per dollar, Ide said.

Family fun day at Emory & Henry College
EMORY, Va. - Families were out and about in Washington County on Saturday.
They were heading on over to Emory & Henry for the 25th Annual Family Fun Day celebration.
The day featured live music, fun inflatables, and even snakes.
Several groups were on hand today for the event including the Washington County Sheriff's Department, Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, and the Virginia Department of Health.
Coordinator Michael Gess says this is an opportunity for citizens to learn about the resources available to them.
"It kind of started out as a grassroots, let's get families as much as support as they can within Washington County. That's kind of progressed into the event that we have today and what it is, the ideal is to show as much support services as we can to the people of Washington County," Gess added.
He said the goal was to get at least 350 residents out to the celebration.

I take it you got banished from the vw forum for having bm wheels and now its happening all over again...? Haha!
I guess it comes down to being individual,i wanted my car to be like no other mk4,i'm a big fan of the oem+ look and these wheels fitted the theme perfectly.Although BBS splits are very nice wheels in their own right,you do see quite a lot of VW's running them.The CSL's are by far the nicest wheels BMW have ever fitted to a car,the curve of the wheel suits the mk4 shape.
Would i love to own an M3 CSL? Damm right i would,they are amazing machines
disco!!!! (09-06-2010)
Just think, if you bought a BMW your whole car would look good, not just your wheels
Here's a pic to show the badge really does make a huge difference to the overall look.I'm the first to admit the BMW badge has improved the look of the car
your car does look very nice mate
18's are they? How much they set you back?
Yes,18" reps,not a chance would genuine CSL's fit due to the low offset of that back wheel,they'd poke out a mile.
Got them off ebay for around £500,not a bad looking wheel for the money.By the time the adaptors were made and tyres fitted etc....it's well over £1100.

Imogam Rabies
Rabies Immune Globulin (Human), Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) , is indicated for individuals suspected of exposure to rabies, particularly severe exposure, with one exception: persons who have been previously immunized with HDCV Rabies Vaccine in a pre-exposure or postexposure treatment series should receive only vaccine. Persons who have received Rabies Vaccines other than HDCV, RVA (Rabies Vaccine Adsorbed) or PCEC (Purified Chick Embryo Cell Vaccine) vaccines should have confirmed adequate rabies antibody titers if they are to receive only vaccine. 1
Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) should be injected as promptly as possible after exposure along with the first dose of vaccine. If initiation of treatment is delayed for any reason, Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) and the first dose of vaccine should still be given, regardless of the interval between exposure and treatment. Imogam® Rabies - HT may be given up to eight days after the first dose of vaccine was given.
Rabies virus is usually transmitted by the bite of a rabid animal (dog, bat, etc. ) but can occasionally penetrate abraded skin contaminated with the saliva of infected animals. Progress of the virus after exposure is believed to follow a neural pathway and the time between exposure and clinical rabies is a function of the proximity of the bite (or abrasion) to the central nervous system and the dose of virus injected. The incubation is usually 2 to 6 weeks but can be longer. After severe bites about the face and neck and arms, it may be as short as 10 days. After initiation of the vaccine series (human diploid cell origin), it takes approximately one week for development of immunity to rabies; therefore, the value of immediate passive immunization with rabies antibodies in the form of Rabies Immune Globulin (Human) cannot be overemphasized.
Recommendations for passive and/or active immunization after exposure to an animal suspected of having rabies have been outlined by the WHO29 and by the United States Public Health Service Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). 1
Rationale of Treatment
In the United States and Canada the following factors should be considered before specific antirabies treatment is indicated:
Species of Biting Animal
Carnivorous animals (especially skunks, foxes, coyotes, raccoons, dogs, bobcats, and cats) and bats are more likely to be infected with rabies than other animals. Rats, mice, squirrels, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, chipmunks and other rodents or rabbits and hares are rarely infected with rabies and have not been known to cause human rabies in the United States. Their bites almost never call for antirabies prophylaxis; therefore, before initiating antirabies prophylaxis, the local or state health department should be consulted.
Because some bat bites may be less severe, and therefore more difficult to recognize, than bites inflicted by larger mammalian carnivores, rabies postexposure treatment should be considered for any physical contact with bats when bite or mucous membrane contact cannot be excluded. 1, 30, 31
Circumstances of Biting Incident
An UNPROVOKED attack is more likely than a provoked attack to indicate that the animal is rabid. Bites inflicted on a person attempting to feed or handle an apparently healthy animal should generally be regarded as PROVOKED.
Type of Exposure
Rabies is commonly transmitted by inoculation with infectious saliva. The likelihood that rabies infection will result from exposure to a rabid animal varies with the nature and extent of the exposure. Two categories of exposure should be considered:
Bite: Any penetration of the skin by teeth.
Nonbite: Scratches, abrasions, open wounds or mucous membranes contaminated with saliva or other potentially infectious material such as brain tissue from a rabid animal.
In addition, two cases of rabies have been attributed to airborne exposures in laboratories and two cases of rabies have been attributed to probable exposures to a bat-infested cave (Frio Cave, Texas). 1, 32-34 Casual contact with a rabid animal, such as petting the animal (without a bite or nonbite exposure as described above) does not constitute an exposure and is not an indication for prophylaxis.
The only documented cases of rabies due to human-to-human transmission occurred in patients who received corneas transplanted from persons who died of rabies undiagnosed at the time of death. 1, 35
Each exposure to possible rabies infection must be individually evaluated. Local or state public health officials should be consulted if questions arise about the need for rabies prophylaxis.
Vaccination Status of Biting Animal
A properly immunized animal has only a minimal chance of developing rabies and transmitting the virus.
Postexposure Treatment of Rabies
Local Treatment of Wounds
Immediate and thorough local treatment of all bite wounds and scratches is perhaps the most effective preventive measure. The wound should be thoroughly cleansed immediately with soap and water. Tetanus prophylaxis and measures to control bacterial infection should be given as indicated.
Specific Treatment
Postexposure antirabies treatment should always include both passive (preferably Rabies Immune Globulin - Human) and active (preferably Rabies Vaccine prepared from human diploid cells) immunization with one exception: persons who have been previously immunized with HDCV Rabies Vaccine in a pre-exposure or postexposure treatment series should receive only vaccine. Persons who have received Rabies Vaccines other than HDCV, RVA or PCEC vaccines should have confirmed adequate rabies antibody titers if they are to receive only vaccine. 1 The combination of globulin and vaccine is recommended for both bite exposures and nonbite exposures (as described under "Rationale of Treatment") and regardless of the interval between exposure and treatment. The sooner treatment is begun after exposure, the better.
Postexposure Treatment Guide
The following recommendations are only a guide. They should be applied in conjunction with knowledge of the animal species involved, circumstances of the bite or other exposure, vaccination status of the animal, and presence of rabies in the region. Local and state public health officials should be consulted if questions arise about the need for rabies prophylaxis.
|Animal Type
|Evaluation and Disposition of Animal
|Postexposure Prophylaxis Recommendations
|Dogs, cats, and ferrets
|Healthy and available for 10 days observation
|Persons should not begin prophylaxis unless animal develops clinical signs of rabies. *
|Rabid or suspected rabid
|Immediately vaccinate.
|Unknown (e. g. escaped)
|Consult public health officials.
|Skunks, raccoons, foxes, and most other carnivores; bats
|Regarded as rabid unless animal proven negative by laboratory tests†
|Consider immediate vaccination
|Livestock, small rodents, lagomorphs (rabbits and hares), large rodents (woodchucks and beavers), and other mammals
|Consider individually
|Consult public health officials. Bites of squirrels, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, chipmunks, rats, mice, other small rodents, rabbits, and hares almost never require antirabies postexposure prophylaxis
|*During the 10-day observation period, begin postexposure
prophylaxis at the first sign of rabies in a dog, cat, or ferret that has
bitten someone. If the animal exhibits clinical signs of rabies, it should
be euthanized immediately and tested.
†The animal should be euthanized and tested as soon as possible. Holding for observation is not recommended. Discontinue vaccine if immunofluorescence test results of the animal are negative.
Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and/or discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. If either of these conditions exist, the vaccine should not be administered.
Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) should be used in conjunction with Rabies Vaccine such as Rabies Vaccine Imovax® Rabies, for intramuscular immunization, vaccine prepared from human diploid cell cultures. The recommended dose of Imogam® Rabies - HT is 20 IU/kg (0. 133 mL/kg) or 9 IU/lb (0. 06 mL/lb) of body weight administered at time of the first vaccine dose. 25, 26, 43 The gluteal area should never be used for HDCV, RVA, or PCEC injections because administration of HDCV in this area results in lower neutralizing antibody titers. 1, 43, 44 If anatomically feasible, the full dose of Rabies Immune Globulin (Human) (RIG) should be thoroughly infiltrated in the area around and into the wounds. Any remaining volume should be injected intramuscularly at a site distant from vaccine administration. 1 Two injections would be given in the gluteal muscle if the volume is greater than 5 mL.
Human Rabies Immune Globulin (HRIG) should never be administered in the same syringe or into the same anatomical site as vaccine. Because HRIG may partially suppress active production of antibody, no more than the recommended dose should be given. 1, 27
Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) is supplied in 2 mL and 10 mL vials with minimal potency of 150 International Units per milliliter (IU/mL).
Vial, 2 mL contains 300 IU which is sufficient for a child weighing 15 kg (33 lb). Product No. 49281-190-20.
Vial, 10 mL contains a total of 1, 500 IU which is sufficient for an adult weighing 75 kg (165 lb). Product No. 49281-190-10
Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) should be stored in the refrigerator between 2° and 8°C (35° and 46°F). Do not freeze.
Imogam® Rabies - HT (rabies immune globulin (human)) CONTAINS NO PRESERVATIVE AND UNUSED PORTION MUST BE DISCARDED IMMEDIATELY.

Ohio's largest industry is taking a big hit thanks to this summer's wet weather. Ohio Farm Bureau spokesman Joe Cornely says a lot of the state's corn and soybean crops didn't get planted in time, and those that did are getting drowned out. Clark State Gets FAA Approval To Fly Drone Over Clark County Farmland By Wayne Baker • Jan 14, 2015 City of Springfield, Ohio. The Federal Aviation Administration has granted Clark State Community College permission to fly a drone in parts of Clark County and it will fly over land owned by the City of Springfield, but leased to local farmers. Clark State recently announced it would integrate drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, into a new precision agriculture program. Getting FAA authorization to fly was the next step. Clark State President Jo Alice Blondin indicated that the students should benefit. Study Says Toxic Algae Blooms May Be Contributing To Own Survival In Ohio Lakes By Lewis Wallace • Jan 8, 2015 NASA Earth Observatory Toxic blue-green algae blooms, or cyanobacteria, are a growing problem in Ohio's lakes, and grabbed the attention of the whole country after the bacteria shut down Toledo's water system last summer. Ohio Corn Could Be Piled High By Lewis Wallace • Sep 16, 2014 United Soybean Board / Flickr/Creative Commons The Midwestern corn harvest is just getting underway, and the region is predicting record corn crops. That means depressed prices for producers—and possibly, trouble with getting that corn where it needs to go. Ohio's U.S. Senators Introduce Legislation To Address Toxic Algae By Lewis Wallace • Sep 10, 2014 Lewis Wallace / WYSO Ohio's U.S. Senators have introduced two bills that address the problems with toxic microcystins, a result of the bacteria known as blue-green algae, in the state's waters. Toxins from algal blooms in Lake Erie caused a two-day shutdown of Toledo's water system in August, and algal blooms have been reported in lakes around the state including Grand Lake St. Mary's and Buckeye Lake. Bitter Winter Affecting Ohio Growers By Associated Press • Feb 10, 2014 The bitterly cold winter is making things tougher for Ohio growers - and that could translate to higher food prices later in the year. The sub-zero temperatures have caused Ohio wine-grape, blackberry and peach growers to lose much of this year's crop, according to The Columbus Dispatch. The value of the crops lost to the cold weather hasn't been determined. Laboratories are analyzing grapevines, blackberry canes and strawberry plants for damage. And, of course, the winter is not over yet. Conservative Ohio Leaders Push Immigration Reform in Washington By Lewis Wallace • Oct 28, 2013 Openclipart Conservative leaders from Ohio are headed to Washington this week to lobby for immigration reform in a collaboration between businesses, evangelicals, and law enforcement. Twenty Ohio leaders are among the hundreds who have meetings set with House Republicans Tuesday. While the Senate passed a comprehensive bill earlier this year, the House has yet to bring a bill to the floor. Senator Portman Speaks on Controversial Farm Bill, Food Stamp Cuts By Lewis Wallace • Sep 5, 2013 (WYSO/Lewis Wallace) U.S. Senator Rob Portman met with farmers in the Dayton area Wednesday to talk about the farm bill. The bill, which is up for renewal, subsidizes both agribusiness and food stamps. The farmers want a new bill passed soon to protect crop insurance, a federally-subsidized program that helps farmers cope when nature destroys their crops. But Portman recently voted against the Senate version of the omnibus bill. U.S. Sen. Portman to Meet with Miami Valley Farmers By Lewis Wallace • Sep 4, 2013 U.S. Senator Rob Portman will meet with farmers in the Dayton area today to answer questions about the farm bill. For most farmers, the first concern about the farm bill is making sure there is a farm bill. The bill expires every five years, and the U.S. House and Senate have until October to agree on a new version or extend the old one. Executive Order to Help Ohio Farmers With Drought By Associated Press • Jul 26, 2012 Governor John Kasich has signed an executive order he says will help farmers affected financially by Ohio's recent drought conditions. The order signed Wednesday instructs state agencies to help farmers seeking federal assistance on loans. That includes emergency low-interest loans for crop losses, relief payments for non-insurable losses and temporary deferral payments on federal loans. The order also gives farmers permission to cut hay for livestock from land set aside for conservation. Pages1 2 next › last »

NREC designed, built and deployed Pipeline Explorer, the first untethered, remotely-controlled robot for inspecting live underground natural gas distribution pipelines.
Explorer represents the state of the art in remote-controlled
inspection systems for low-pressure and high-pressure natural
gas pipelines. The battery-powered Explorer can perform long-range,
extended duration visual inspections of cast-iron and steel
gas mains. Unlike older, tethered systems, Explorer can inspect
thousands of feet of pipeline from a single excavation point.
An operator controls Explorer through a wireless link and
can monitor pipeline images in real time.
Explorer won an R&D Magazine Top
100 award in 2006 for being one of the year's
most original and innovative technological developments.

Israel's has recently banned "too-skinny" models requiring they must have a BMI of at least 18.5 in order to work. There are very strict rules about using models who fall below the magic number. However, this ruling is unfair. BMI is, after all, not always an indicator of health -- there have been many publications that have proven that. For example, people with very light bones and athletes are more likely to fall out of said number, and still be relatively healthy. In addition, one can meet these minimum requirements, yet still look extremely thin -- muscle, after all, weighs more than fat.
What better time of year to pull out the sequins, leather and lace than the holiday season? Whether it's a cocktail party, dinner with friends or a gathering to trim the tree, how about donning something special to mark the festive occasion. Below I've provided three looks for each of the materials.
When it comes to office holiday parties, there's almost always One. The One who looks absolutely incredible. The One who, when you see her, you do a double-take and can't believe your eyes. Here are five simple ways to ensure that you're The One at the office holiday party that they're discussing around the water cooler Monday morning -- in a good way.
I won entrance into the pre-shop for the highly coveted Margiela collection at H&M the night before it opened to the public. We had four in our group, but it was everyone for themselves on the second floor. I did quite well climbing through racks and saying "sorry" compulsively to trick people into thinking I was polite and not a blood-hungry Margiela fiend.
As the temperature drops, there's nothing better than throwing on a great sweater to keep you warm. I've realized that there are three things I always consider when hunting for the perfect sweater. As a matter of fact, these three things can also be applied to any other tops, jackets or coats you may be considering.
This Toronto Fashion Week, Paraezo Couture's latest collection, headed by former wedding salon creative director, Bruce Dang, showed a series of gowns with amazing detailing (you have to love the beading, lace, feathering and architecture of each of these pieces) that surely fits the bill of a princess wedding. However, the princess wedding we're talking about is more 2008 than 2012.
They can be worn any time of the year, but with fall in full swing, nothing beats a great pair of booties. With jeans, skirts and everything in between, the right bootie can take an outfit from drab to fab. Here are some my favourite picks for the season and tips on what to look for when shopping for the perfect pair.
Last night Obama needed to win. There really was no other option. Obama was so on (and then some) that you could feel Bill Maher's elation when he tweeted about the return of the "Black Ninja." Then it got seriously real when the issue of energy and drilling companies motivated both to pretty much get into each other's grills creating one of many unexpected and unforgettable moments. Moments such as a woman named Lorraine. Or was it Lorianne? In fact, there was a binder full of women. Romney attempting to spike the ball by asking Obama repeatedly if he has in fact checked his (much smaller) pension. And Michelle and Ann's fashion blunder.

Is bird license needed to hunt forest grouse?
HUNTING -- While an upland bird or small game license is needed to hunt pheasants and quail, and a migratory bird stamp is needed to hunt waterfowl, no special permits are needed in Idaho and Washington to hunt forest grouse -- dusky, ruffed or spruce grouse.
Hunters simply need to have a current hunting license for hunting these forest grouse species.

I'm getting through, but the site's not up. All I can see is the "foundation" of a website. Maybe they're upgrading or recovering from an error.
I am having mixed luck, sometimes I can connect but not much is there and other time I can't connect at all.

Anonymous letter spreads dissent
After nearly 50 years in the Christian ministry, I am confused and disappointed by the words and actions of some believers. Years ago, youth were encouraged to wear bracelets saying, "WWJD" (What Would Jesus Do?) A bit simplistic perhaps but still not a bad motto.
Jesus spent much of his time eating and fellowshipping with "sinners" and others of society's outcasts, giving hope to many whom society condemned. He was also very up front and gracious with opponents. In my tradition, Martin Luther, in his explanation of the 10 commandments, encouraged us to "put the most charitable construction" on what a neighbor says and does.
A letter was recently sent to the members of two congregations (and perhaps more?) Its goal appears to be to cause dissent in these members with their church's choice to remain in the ELCA after its decision to ordain openly homosexual clergy to serve in churches open to them.
I see no problem with free speech, but when sent with no signature or return address, I'm saddened. Someone sent it with first class postage (expensive) and no sense of accountability? If we claim to follow Christ, let's agree to disagree agreeably and take responsibility for our actions.

Celebration of Service helps Corvallis vet
CORVALLIS, Mont. - A national home improvement store pitches in, helping an injured Corvallis Army veteran and the children living under his roof.
The month-long project to give the Goodnight family a bigger place to live is almost finished.
More than 100 Home Depot employees from all over the state, led by workers from Missoula, turned out in a quiet section of Ravalli County to give the Goodnight family a larger home.
"We decided as a crew, we had to get down here to help him out," says Jerry Contonio, the Missoula store manager.
Sergeant Donald Goodnight, U.S. Army, retired; broke his back when the Black Hawk helicopter he flew in as crew chief hit the Iraqi soil too hard on landing.
"When I first came home and they told me I was never going to work again, I was 29-years-old," says Goodnight.
Goodnight is on full disability from the Veterans Administration. He's a full-time dad raising his daughters, and a niece and nephew -- challenging in a small house and compounded by his disabilities. But that all changed when Home Depot stepped in.
"Now that we've got this bigger space, the family's not going to be so crowded. It's going to help me heal a little bit more."
Even though they've shared their living space with strangers wielding power tools for the last 30 days, Goodnight's family says it's worth it.
"It's been awesome because my cousin can have a room, and my sisters and me, and my other cousin doesn't have to sleep on the ground," says Goodnight's 10-year-old daughter, Sabrina.
Besides the addition on the Goodnights' house, the crew put in new doors, a laminate floor, and are busy painting and finishing trim work. They also have plans to build a new deck in the near future.
