A 29-year-old woman suffering a suspected medical emergency waited three days for spinal surgery because of a botched referral to a hospital.
She has a permanent disability from nerve compression in her lower back.
Health and Disability Commissioner Anthony Hill, in a decision made public yesterday, said the woman's GP breached the code of patients' rights. He also mildly criticised an orthopaedic surgeon.
"Ms B" saw her doctor on November 16, 2009, several days after slipping in the shower. She had sciatic pain on her right side and tingling in her right foot.
Dr A suspected a prolapsed disc, talked to a specialist, arranged a CT scan and prescribed pain relief and anti-inflammatory medicine.
Four days later, a Friday, she returned to Dr A suffering urinary incontinence.
He recognised the importance of this. He had the CT scan appointment brought forward and tried, unsuccessfully, to contact the local public hospital's on-call orthopaedic surgeon, Dr C, and faxed a referral to Dr C's private clinic.
He left a message on Dr C's mobile phone and told the patient to go to the hospital emergency department during the weekend if she did not hear from Dr C or her symptoms worsened.
Mr Hill's report said the woman's symptoms were indicative of cauda equina syndrome, a compression of nerves in the lower spine. Medical guidelines state this condition is a "medical emergency and requires urgent hospital referral ... for orthopaedic or neurosurgical assessment".
Mr Hill said the GP believed he had left his own and the patient's contact details in the phone message for Dr C, who was in theatre at the time.
But the recollections of the message from the patient and the orthopaedic surgeon did not confirm this.
"I accept, however, that Dr A did identify himself in the telephone message and that Dr C would have been able to obtain Dr A's contact details."
Acting on the phone message, Dr C looked in the emergency department and the wards for a patient with Ms B's symptoms. She went to the hospital for the CT scan on the Monday morning.
Dr C operated on her later that day to decompress the disc. She has had two subsequent operations, but has significant ongoing neurological problems and Dr C stated she would undoubtedly have permanent disability from the disc prolapse.
Mr Hill said the GP's failings included not ensuring his patient was reviewed by a specialist on the Friday, not following up his phone message and fax to Dr C, and not impressing on Ms B the need for timely review.
Dr C should have made more attempts to find the patient.
"Primary care centres and district health boards need to ... develop clear, unambiguous systems for referring patients," Mr Hill said.
The DHB concerned, which in 2009 did not have a written protocol for primary care referrals to the emergency department, now had a document explaining the GP referral process and had set up a direct "primary care referral line" for community doctors to speak to senior ED physicians.

For his efforts at Porta al Prato (above) Van Nest won a certificate (below), a gold medal, and a revolver—plus a spot in history.
For more than a century, Van Nest was entirely lost to history. La Nazione, the primary source of information about the race, misspelled his name and thus no historian had ever pieced together his profile. When I started researching the event, I remembered that a collector friend of mine, Ed Berry Jr., had purchased the original winner's certificate 15 years earlier at the annual antique bicycle auction in Copake, New York. Scrutinizing that document, I discovered the mistake, and was then able to trace Van Nest's trail.
His father, the reverend Abraham Rynier Van Nest, came from a distinguished Dutch American family. (The Van Nest neighborhood in the Bronx is named after a relative.) Rynier's mother, Margaret Willett, was also from a prominent family with American roots dating to Colonial times. In 1863, in the midst of the US Civil War, Van Nest Sr. was offered a chance to preside over the American Chapel in Paris, and moved there along with his wife, older son George Willett, and Rynier. When the elder Van Nest found out he would have to share the pulpit there, he began dividing his time with a Protestant church in Rome. In 1866 he settled in Florence to run the American Union Church.Rynier may have initially encountered the velocipede in Paris, home to the original Michaux company, the maker of the bicycle he'd raced to Pistoia, or perhaps in Rome. In any case, he would have seen at least a few elegant sportsmen trundling about Florence on their bicycles, a year or so before his landmark achievement.
Although I could find no indication of a subsequent cycling career, his doctoral thesis, submitted to the University of Pennsylvania medical school in 1880, suggests that he retained the same progressive spirit and love of the outdoors that had originally attracted him to the fledgling sport. Writing about "asylums," or institutions for the mentally ill, Rynier decried the rampant abuse and overcrowding of patients. And he insisted that facilities should be located in the pure air of the country. Scattered records affirm that he remained close to his family, and never started one of his own. He settled in New York City, where he practiced medicine and led a privileged but low-key life. He died in 1931, leaving his small fortune to his German-born housekeeper and his prized music books to the New York Public Library. In Brooklyn's leafy Green-Wood Cemetery, by the graves of his parents, brother, and an infant sister, America's first cycling champion lies beneath an unadorned tombstone that makes no mention of his place in history.

Relatives of the victims of Toulouse killer Mohammed Merah will seek to prevent the media from broadcasting recordings of the late French Muslim gunman.
Attorneys for the bereaved relatives said Monday that they are seeking a gag order on the recordings after negotiations between Merah and French police were aired by the French television channel TF1. Merah murdered three children and a rabbi at a Jewish school in Toulouse on March 19.
The conversations took place as police lay siege to Merah's home in Toulouse. He was killed in a shootout on March 23.
"You are facing a man who does not fear death," a masculine voice believed to belong to Merah is heard saying in the recordings, which were aired June 8. "I love death as much as you love life."
Samia Maktouf, an attorney for one of the families, said that "The victims of this attack are outraged." The families' main concern is that Merah's words will inspire copycats.
"Next, videos of Merah will be disseminated," Maktouf said. "This will cause irrevocable damage."
Merah made a video recording of his attack on the Otzar Hatorah school. The Qatar-based Al Jazeera network obtained the footage but decided not to air it.
French police are investigating how TF1 obtained the recordings, which may have been leaked by the police.
The umbrella organization of French Jewish communities, CRIF, expressed its "shock and outrage" at the airing of the recordings. The Council for Audiovisual Communication, a French professional union, advised other media not to air them.
French Interior Minister Manuel Valls condemned the decision to run extracts of the negotiations. He also said Monday that he is concerned about a "new breed of anti-Semitism" in France. His comments came the day after the two suspects in the July 5 attack on a Jewish teenager traveling on a train between Toulouse and Lyon were detained by police.
"There is anti-Semitism that exists in our neighbourhoods, in our suburbs," said Valls, according to the European Jewish Press and the French news agency AFP. "There are in our neighborhoods youths or younger persons who in the name of a collective identity they feel is under attack decide on the most ignorant course, the most dangerous to our values, to perpetuate attacks on Jews. They consider Jews to be the enemy."
The 17-year-old victim of the train attack reportedly is a student at the Ozar Hatorah school. The teen, who reportedly was wearing a kippah and tzitzit, was accosted verbally before he was beaten by two assailants.
"Today, [people] don't think twice about insulting or hitting a fellow citizen because he is identifiably Jewish in his appearance," Valls added in an interview with a Jewish radio station.
According to the French Jewish Protection Service, there were more than 90 anti-Semitic incidents in France in the 10 days following the school shooting.

Results from international tests which placed our Year 9 students at the bottom of the developed world in mathematics make for depressing reading.
Here are some suggestions for parents, our minister, her officials and those involved in teacher education and school leadership. We need far more than tinkering - we need wholesale changes if we are to have skilled, motivated students of mathematics leaving our primary schools.
First, look at more ways to get parents involved in mathematics exercises. There are many games and exercises that parents can play with their children. Parents can set up challenges regarding sports, and have their children record results and work out percentages. Schools should call on people who have this expertise, and set up regular parent information nights. The best nights have a combination of input and practice.
For example, with young children, when travelling between cities each person in turn gets the number of AA signs seen at intersections.
The children keep their own tallies, and compete for who could add the new total the fastest, as well as who was first to, say, 20 signs.
For older children use oral exercises, for example, a dress costs $100. In a sale it is reduced 10 per cent, so how much is it now? What if it is reduced a further 10 per cent? What is its new sale price? Then, do it again for 20 per cent discounts.
Second, teachers should constantly set review exercises at the beginning of each lesson when teaching mathematics. Students in general love competition and seeing improvement. In basic facts you can have students tested easily for accuracy and speed. I did this at a school I was involved in and tested each Year 9 and 10 class - it took me five minutes to test each class and I had two pieces of valid assessment (accuracy, speed) for students to record and improve upon. I would do review tests in geometry, measurement and trigonometry as well.
Third, teachers need to be confident about their own maths, and the ways to teach this complex subject. A quick check of the curriculum offered for future primary school teachers shows two specific in-college courses out of 16 are directed at mathematics (12.5 per cent of time) while there are six courses directed at history, philosophy, curriculum design and assessment (representing 37 per cent of time). From my experience teaching in two teachers' colleges, the time now allocated to mathematics (and indeed to teaching literacy) is far too low. Teacher training institutions should review the time they allocate to fundamentals of teaching subjects, and reduce (not exclude) the time allocated to the general topics. Important features of curriculum, education history, learning and teaching can be explored further in post-graduate courses.
Fourth, a number of teachers attracted to the profession have not had satisfying experiences in their own mathematics learning at primary and secondary school. How many moved away from the subject as soon as it became optional, only to find they needed good knowledge in their teacher training? I wonder what, or if, remedial courses in basic mathematics are offered to our existing or future teachers? Many would appreciate making improvements in speed and accuracy in basic and more complex functions.
Fifth, there are many websites that allow children to practise their basic facts and receive immediate feedback. These can be reinforced in school newsletters.
Changes should occur in pre-service teacher education courses. Presumably there will be considerable evaluation of what has been offered in recent in-service teacher education professional development. There is room for basics and rote learning, as well as the problem solving processes, estimating and other cognitive skills.
We must first admit that what we have is not working anywhere near as well as it should. We generally have enormous teacher goodwill, but they need appropriate training and direction. Let us again take on and solve an identified weakness in what is generally an effective, productive education system.
Brendan Schollum has had 16 years as a secondary principal, and was a lecturer at two Teachers' Colleges at primary and secondary levels.

Since both programs have the same name, I assumed they followed
convention that either they are writen by the same author, or that the
new and the old author have agreed that the new program (whichever that
may be) supercedes the old one. In both case that person would know
which program is to be prefered.

A quick look at the program suggests that at least some older version
did automatically drop outliers. Also from time to time questions show
up on the statalist on how to automatically delete/ignore outliers
(however defined). In big datasets like the one you are describing you
will just have to be pragmatic. If you have 4000 variables, you'll have
to look at much more than 4000 graphs: an outlier is not necesarily
defined as a univariate characteristic, so you should also consider
multivariate comparisons. Most likely a person looking at much more
than 4000 graphs would probably make more mistakes than an automatic
procedure that tags suspicious cases which are than investigated.

Letter writer just repeats the party line
Letter writer David Fundakowski basically inferred Ambassador Chris Stevens caused his own death "because he refused protection, hoping to display a friendly, cooperative image for the embassy." Fundakowski's attitude mirrors Hillary Clinton defender Eleanor Clift's statement, "I'd like to point out that Ambassador Stevens was not 'murdered;' he died of smoke inhalation in that safe room in that CIA installation."
McClatchy News wrote: Stevens requested from the State Department additional security four times, including an 18-person Special Forces security team headed by Lt. Col. Wood that Gen. Ham signed off on that the State Department said no to."
Let's apply who, what, when, where and why to this conundrum of conflicting statements.
Where was the request for less protection for the main embassy or the satellite compound he traveled to?
When were these conflicting statements made? Stevens as ambassador was increasingly security conscious and increasingly concerned about attacks. Simple research in the matter shows Stevens had changed his original stance.
Why did Stevens change his stance? CNN found and reviewed his dairy found on the floor of the largely unsecured consulate compound "where (Stevens) was fatally wounded." (Wounded? Really, CNN?) In it Stevens wrote of being worried about never-ending security threats and being on an al-Qaida hit list.
What was going on at the time? Many other embassies were closing and fleeing the country.
Who? Barack Obama running for president had nothing to gain from the truth coming out nor did Hillary's future aspirations
Fundakowski's leftist-inspired inference slanders Stevens' memory.

Anthony Baratta: The Maximalist
He is decorating's irrepressible firebrand, mixing riotous whirls of pattern and kaleidoscopes of color that are happily, brightly at home by the sea. Lime green canvas wallpaper, zebra-covered chairs—in Anthony Baratta's world, color is always a welcome guest.
He works, he says, "on the coast of everyplace" but finds his sweet spot in tropical towns like Jupiter and Palm Beach, where grand homes allow him to update the Old Florida look with his own hot pink prints and nautical patterns.
Down the coast, on Venetian Island, Baratta's personal getaway acts as a laboratory for his relentlessly sunny hues. "It's always about an American summer in my head," he says. —M.C.

First off I want to thank everyone who came out on Saturday, we had a great turn out.
I also want to thank all our sponsors for the freebies and getting behind us. Without all of you this event couldn't happen.
Now with that being said I want to address some of the things I have read through out the posts here and elsewhere.
Yes this is a 2 person operation 99.9% of the time. Amber and I handle just about everything.
If it wasn't for some really good friends coming out and helping run the booth and counting ballots this thing would never happen. So to them I am forever grateful.
Yes, there were issues with the ballots yes and we are working on fixing it already.
Yes there were a few cars listed in the wrong class, but they were in the class they registered under
If you register a rabbit and show up in a passat, what am I gonna do?
Park you with the passats and hope people have enough sense to vote correctly.
I'm not saying that peoples choice isn't a flawed system, it is. But its not about the award is it?!
The other issue with Stock, Modified, and Super Modified.
Here are the definitions of each of these classifications as we interpret them.
Stock: Just that, show room original. All OEM equipment across the board. Period
Modified: Just about everyone that owns a VW/Audi. ANY modification that changes the vehicle from the original OEM specifications.
Super Modified: If you have modified the car to the point that it has an engine and or drive train swap, if it is track prepped, a big Turbo swap, supercharged etc. is a super modification to the original car.
Now I know there were alot of guys out there with engine swaps in the wrong classes.
I can't help what class people register for and I can't look at every car when it comes in.
I'm sorry if anyone feels like they got cheated because of the class they were in or weren't in. I will try to make it clearer next year.
Again I apologize for the confusion and I hope to see everyone again next year!
If you have any suggestions good or bad email me firstname.lastname@example.com I can't change whats wrong if I don't know about it.

Add a week, at least, of American commerce to the list of casualties from the Sept. 11 terrorist attack. In the hours following the collapse of the twin towers, the United States applied a tourniquet to the transportation arteries that feed our national economy. The first campaign in the war to protect the American homeland was to impose an embargo -- on our own economy.
Freezing our transport networks first and asking questions later was clearly appropriate. But now comes the hard part. While domestic policing must continue to be emphasized, a considerable threat exists in cross-border traffic as well. Chemical and biological weapons can be more easily loaded in a truck than on a missile.
Front-line agencies like the Customs Service are being called upon to do something for which they have neither the staff nor the training. Last year, by air, land and sea, 489 million people, 127 million cars and 211,000 boats passed through our border inspection systems. These agencies, as presently financed and administered, cannot possibly eliminate every threat when faced with such numbers.
Airports and airplanes are like Fort Knox compared with other forms of transport. As cross-border trade has grown, security and those responsible for providing it have been shoved aside. Despite trade more than tripling between the United States and Canada, for example, the number of customs and immigration inspectors along the border remain at pre-Nafta levels. The Coast Guard, which is essential to port security, is at its lowest personnel level since 1964.Continue reading the main story
We are now experiencing the dark side of a transport system in which efficiency has trumped public security. As America mobilizes for a long struggle, we must acknowledge some basic realities. There will continue to be anti-American terrorists with global reach. These terrorists will have access to the means to carry out catastrophic attacks. And future terrorists will draw inspiration from this black Tuesday.
We must find a way to reduce the potential of our global transport lifelines to be conduits for terrorism. There needs to be far greater international cooperation in policing transnational flows of people and goods.
Trying to distinguish the illicit from the licit at America's borders is like trying to catch minnows at the base of Niagara Falls. We need to move upstream. Why not place some of our immigration and customs officials with their counterparts overseas, allowing them to inspect and clear travelers and goods destined for the United States? Such an approach would take better advantage of law-enforcement information at the point of departure, get transport-related intelligence into the security system sooner and reduce the congestion caused by inspections at our borders.
The private sector and traveling public also have roles to play. The overwhelming majority of international carriers, cargo shippers and travelers are legitimate, and they must be willing, for their safety, to embrace tightened security measures and provide proof of their identities and purposes as early as possible. This would allow border agencies to determine with more confidence what risks travelers, carriers and cargo might pose.
Verifying the identity and purpose of users or operators at the point of origin could be accomplished through electronic fingerprint technology and cargo and vehicle scanning equipment. Tracking devices -- electronic tagging, universal bar codes -- could be adopted to insure tighter control over commerce. This in-transit accountability would allow authorities to act on intelligence of a potential breach in security prior to arrival at our borders, as well as afterward. Their work must be effectively coordinated and supported by analysts and data management systems that would enable more effective targeting.
The vibrancy of our globalized economy depends on the free movement of people, goods and ideas. As Gov. Tom Ridge steps into his new role as head of the Office of Homeland Security, he should keep in mind that quarantining our transportation system in the face of terrorism cannot be the right cure for this disease.Continue reading the main story

Wine auctioneer on embezzlement charges
The founder of online auction site WineGavel has been charged with 12 counts of theft and embezzlement worth over US$500,000.
According to Wine Spectator, Joshua Krummenoehl is accused of convincing wine collectors to give him their fine wine to sell and then pocketing the proceeds.
Krummenoehl was arrested in New York on 8 July and flown back to Napa to be charged. He posted a $50,000 bail on 17 July.
The indictment file from prosecutors states that Krummenoehl allegedly accepted wine to sell on his site between 14 February 2011 and 1 April 2012, took payment for the wines without compensating the consignors while keeping any unsold wines.
Supervising inspector from the Marin County district attorney's office, Carl Chapman, said that having founded WineGavel, Krummenoehl quickly found he had insufficient operating revenue.
"The evidence shows that when Krummenoehl solicited and accepted the consignments from the victims between February 2011 and March 2012, he had no intention of using the proceeds of the sales for its entrusted purpose," he said.
Krummenoehl is expected back in court on 28 August. WineGavelis currently inactive Wine Spectator reports.

Great host, very friendly and welcomming. He provided us with a lot of useful tips about tapas bars (also vegetarian places) and what to visit in Granada.
The location is optimal and the flat was great too. There were also washing pads for us to use which was really convinient.
We warmly recommend it :-)
Very nice appartment, right in the heart of the city. Close to all the sights and in a lively area. It is very clean and well equipped too with everything you need. Christian and Sabrina were very welcoming and helpful hosts. I would recommend this address.
very helpful host. we were picked up in the centre and shown to the appartment,which was very central everything in walking distance even the alhambra.comfortable bed,clean and everything you need.
Great location in the center of Granada (Albayzin). With the best tapas bars around the corner. Very quiet at night (good night sleep). Comfortable beds although the mattresses are different. Spacey and though the interior is not very modern, it has all the features you need. The host is very friendly, helpful and will give you some great tips what to see and eat in the neighborhood.
Wonderful,helpful hosts Christian and Sabrina,gorgeous old apartment originally part of Granada's first hospital,right in the heart of Albayzin Grenada,what's not to love!!!!
Christian! He gave us many good tips and we enjoyed our stay in the apartment. This apartment was great, very complete. And the location was perfect, close to everywhere and very central. Free tapas in most places, nice!
Sabrina and Christian's apartment is located in a great location in Granada. It's in a beautiful building with some elements of 14th century. It's also very close to most of the places you want to see in Granada: 5 mins to Granada Cathedral, 30 mins to Alhambra (it's actually 5 mins to the road which takes you to Alhambra, the rest is the time to walk up there), and short distances to other Plazas or historical places. We actually walked to all the places we wanted to visit (didn't need to take the bus/minibus) You also find lots of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries, cafes and etc. around the house.
The house is exactly the way it shows in the photos; it's quite spacious. It was very clean and also in a quiet building. It has everything you need for your stay; it even has some basic stuff for cooking (oil, salt, pepper, etc). We felt very comfortable in this apartment.
Christian was also very nice and helpful. He showed us around the area and showed us some places for eating, shopping and etc. He also explained the main sight of the city and how to get there on the map; which was like a short tour on the map--quite helpful.
We had a good time staying at this place and we do recommend this place.
- Very friendly welcome for english speakers
- Good facilities/cleanliness/hygiene
- At the heart of all the buzz
This is a great place to stay! Walking distance to the Alhambra and all the best places. Christian was really helpful, thanks. Kim and Katina.
This apartment was really lovely. We loved the fact that we could walk out of our flat, walk around the corner and we were in the middle of the whole restaurant/bar/shopping area. The apartment was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The only thing that would have made this place better would have been a wi-fi connection. Thanks for everything!

The event I shall be gracing with my presence is this one:
It's being put on by some friends of mine, and, as you can see, they have asked me to 'appear' at it. Though, in reality, this just means I'll be there and might do something like hand out the Best Cake Prize or some such trifle... I'm mainly just there to have a jolly good time.
But since this is mainly a vintage style blog, let me tell you what I'll be wearing... which will both plug this smashing new frock, and give me the opportunity to show off some new modelling pictures... I do like to multi-task!
As you all know by now, I teamed up with Heyday to produce a self-titled wrap dress called the Fleur. It's had a couple of incarnations so far, but this one may very well be my favourite as it's so versatile, not to mention in one of my most beloved colour-schemes.
The red, white and blue Fleur is the perfect patriotic frock (if you're one of the lucky nations that have this colour on their flags)! It's absolutely ideal for wearing to Royal Wedding celebrations, the Diamond Jubilee, Liberation Day in the Channel Islands, Independence Day on the 4th of July, Victoire 1945 in France, Victoria Day in Canada, the Queen's Birthday in the Antipodes... well you get the point. Even if these aren't your country's colours, it's the perfect 1940s combination and looks absolutely super with matching accessories!
Shona had such fun being snapped by Gordon on a beautiful sunny day. I think these pictures show how these Fleur wrap dresses can be made to suit your chosen era with the right accessories and hairstyles. On Gem the Daisy on Black looks 30s, and on Claire the English Rose on Black looks mid-late 50s! Go and have a look on the Heyday site for more shots of the girls (and more of me, if you aren't bored of my mug already)! Anyway, as you can tell, I'm just as enthusiastic as ever about these fantastic frocks, and I hope you love the new version as much as me. As always, they are limited edition and once they are gone, they won't be repeated... so go and grab your now and if you're in the UK, wear it next Friday with patriotic (or just plain vintage) pride.
I leave you with the whole gang in our best catalogue poses, modelling the whole Fleur range. See you next time!

In addition to being one of Anguilla's most popular island pastimes, sailing is the island's national sport. Many vacationers enjoy participating in or simply observing this exciting water sport. The tradition of sailboat racing started years ago, when Anguillans returned from fishing trips and raced their boats home. From then on, the spirit of competition took over and created what is now the most popular sport in the Caribbean.
Anguilla hosts a number of annual sailboat racing events. Anguillans from around the world travel back home to the island just to be a part of these exciting events which are the main attract during racing season that runs from May through August. It is great fun to watch these races unfold from cliffside vantage points. These prized races are followed by post-race parties that can last into the wee hours of the night.
Some sailors and boaters are attracted to Anguilla's isolation, as well as the delightful bays on both the north and south coasts of the island. Boaters who seek some of the most private waters around Anguilla will discover heavenly solitude in the waters of the Prickly Pear Cays and Dog Island, which are just north of Anguilla.
But, we always advice sailors and boaters to be cautious when navigating the waters of the Caribbean but especially here. Watch out for coral reefs, especially around the island, which can do serious damage to your watercraft. Also, stay alert for unfavorable trade winds and storms that could be brewing over the water.
While sailing and boating, consider the ocean currents, which are considerably stronger in the Atlantic Ocean than in the waters of the Caribbean Sea. Of course, the season during which you are sailing is an important consideration for the conditions of the water. Hurricane season and heavy rains occur during the summer months, and less experienced boaters should avoid these sailing conditions.
The weather in Anguilla is almost always nice. The temperature remains fairly constant year round, making this the perfect island to visit any time of the year.
During the winter, Anguilla's temperatures hover between 74 to 78 degrees (F), and during the summer time, the temperatures stay in the mid to upper 80s.
The coolest hours are after the sun has gone down, when the temperature can drop by two to four degrees. With the steady trade winds blowing from the northeast, this can make evenings a little chilly for some visitors. The warmest hours on the island are midday during the summer time.
Most weather reports will anticipate daily rain on the island, but usually it's just a cloud passing quickly over the island, because in actuality, Anguilla is one of the sunniest and driest islands in the Caribbean. The annual rainfall averages only 45 inches. When it does rain, the showers usually last for 10 minutes or less. October through December historically sees the most rain, and the humidity remains very low throughout the year.
Hurricane season is from June 1 to November 31, however there have only been six direct hits on the island in the past 50 years.

Marie Ponsot hunts for lost language skills
Poet Marie Ponsot speaks to the New York Times about trying to regain lost language skills after a stroke.
Last week, back in her apartment on the Upper East Side, Ms. Ponsot had help in her hunt for syntax, a tool more fundamental to human existence than the wheel: a rotating group of poets who come to read and talk with her. "I really think if you're in this kind of mental trouble," she said, "all the medications are going to keep the body alive, but to have it work" — she put her hands on her head — "you're going to have to do it yourself."

As a result, horses can wear the Miracle Collar without pain or discomfort while drinking, eating, grazing or being ridden. • Leather connector strap helps keep browband in place and ensures that the Miracle Collar will not slide around or off and become ineffective. • Carefully crafted from the highest quality russet harness leather for strength and gentleness to the hair coat. • Available with optional browband and jowl fleece covers for extra horse comfort. • Eliminates the need and expense of other anti-cribbing products like paints, sprays, straps, etc. Packaging illustrates how to position Miracle Collar on the horse's head and includes complete instructions for use. Look for the Miracle Collar logo and patent numbers embossed on each collar to ensure you're looking at the one and only Miracle Collar. Beware of imitation collars that aren't guaranteed to humanely and effectively prevent cribbing. The look-alike does not feature the same patented design and could even be harmful to your horse. Available Sizes Medium - fits average size horses Large - fits warmbloods, drafts and large horses Stop Cribbing With These Easy Steps: A correct fit is necessary for the Miracle Collar to prevent and/or stop your horse from cribbing. Please remember that this includes the need to readjust the fit immediately after putting the Miracle Collar on and as needed whenever the Miracle Collar is being worn by your horse or after putting it on a different horse. Remember, your horse will only feel pressure when cribbing is attempted so the Miracle Collar can be worn at all times (even under a headstall or halter) and will not interfere with normal eating, drinking, breathing or riding. Add extra horse comfort and cushioning with Miracle Collar Fleece Covers. The browband strap is the strap that applies the pressure to stop your horse from cribbing. Be sure it is properly adjusted. The neck strap simply helps hold the Miracle Collar in place. 1. Stand on the near side of your horse and place the wide bottom piece under the jaw with the buckles facing out toward you. The cut-outs should conform around the jaw with the CENTER TAB pointed forward to fit in the space between the jaws. 2. For the Miracle Collar to be effective, it must be positioned on your horse's head correctly. Position the shorter NECK STRAP over the neck, through the mane (or over the bridle path) and buckle until just snug. You should always be able to slip a flat hand's width between the neck strap and your horse's neck. Note: The neck strap does not apply the pressure to stop cribbing and should be adjusted only snug enough to keep the collar in place. 3. Run the longer BROWBAND STRAP across the forehead just in front of and close to the ears and buckle moderately tight. As when putting anything new on your horse, watch how your horse reacts to the Miracle Collar's adjustment and make further adjustments one hole at a time. 4. The adjustment of the Miracle Collar's browband strap is very important since the leather will stretch and lengthen over time. First, adjust the browband strap with your horse's head in the upright position so enough pressure is applied for the Miracle Collar to stop your horse from cribbing. Be sure the browband strap fits tightly enough so it does not drop forward on your horse's face. This observation is best made by watching your horse eat hay or grass off the ground for a few minutes. If the browband strap appears to be loose in this head down position, continue to make tightening adjustments on the browband strap only, one hole at a time, until it cannot slide downward over the face or eyes. If necessary, you may also punch additional holes in the browband strap for more adjustment. ATTENTION: The browband strap may need to be adjusted from time to time in the head down position (check the collar on a daily basis as leather becomes broken in) and the browband strap tightened even more if your horse still attempts to crib. The browband strap should always fit tighter than the neck strap. To help prevent sores from developing, make sure both straps are adjusted properly and check them frequently. We also recommend cleaning the Miracle Collar on a regular basis. 5. Now check the neck strap again for proper fit. You should still be able to slip a flat hand's width between the neck strap and the horse's neck (but make sure it's snug). 6. Be sure to run the straps through the metal keepers on the buckles so they can't be unbuckled by the horse wearing it or by other horses. Proper Care and Maintenance The Miracle Collar is constructed with the best craftsmanship and materials available including premium russet harness leather and quality nickel plated hardware. With proper care, this collar will be effective and withstand years of use. As a part of your daily grooming schedule, check the Miracle Collar for a proper fit, because over time the leather straps may stretch and need to be adjusted. Also inspect the Miracle Collar for any needed cleaning or repair. Since the Miracle Collar is worn every day, it is very important that it is cleaned and inspected on a regular basis. When the collar is fitted properly and kept clean the horse should not develop sores. A cleaning with your choice of leather cleaner will help keep the Miracle Collar in shape. A daily inspection of the Miracle Collar is absolutely necessary to help avoid any problems associated with the accumulation of dirt, manure, grime, sweat or problems that may occur from incorrect adjustment or position of the collar. Because horses are powerful and sometimes unpredictable animals, we recommend the Miracle Collar be used by experienced horse owners, following all directions and using common sense.

'Singing is like sex'
Page Tools
For Suzi Quatro, singing is like sex - you never get enough.
The 54-year-old American forged the path for women rockers in the 1970s with hits such as Devil Gate Drive, Can The Can and 48 Crash.
"I don't get bored ... the feeling in each song erupts from the audience and how can you ever get tired of that," Quatro, who will tour Australia next month, said from the US.
"It is like sex, every day, every hour or every minute - I don't think people ever get tired of it."
Quatro will begin her Australian tour in Perth on February 8 before performing in major cities around the country.
"Songs change a little bit over the years because you change within that song," she said.
"But I wouldn't change them so much that the audience won't know them."
Hailing from Detroit, Quatro earned herself the title of First Lady of Rock with her anthemic tunes.
She toured Australia for the first time in 1974.
Quatro said her tour would include all her well-known songs along with a number of new ones that will appear on an album to be released later this year.
"I always try to give the audience what they like," she said.

What size of wire to run?
I need to power up a 100 amp panel on a new detached RV garage from my existing 200 amp panel. What size wires (2 hots, 1 neutral) would be the correct size to run over a 240 feet span between panels? the panel will be grounded from the new foundation . I will be using a 50 amp RV hook up and just basic electricity for a 2300 sq.ft garage. Your help is greatly appreciated.Thanks.
Where are you located ?
You need 4 wires for a sub here
So you are feeding the 100a panel with 50a ?
Or you want a 100a panel, then will feed 50a to the RV ?
I live in the high desert, California. Electrical was not in my plans and the garage has been finaled though the city, but would still want to be complaint.
I am feeding the new 100amp panel from a 200 amp panel attached to my home, distance of 240 ft. I want to run a 50 amp service to my RV from the new 100amp panel.
From what I see in the tables...
For the full 100a draw #2 wire would give you 4.8% voltage drop drawing 100a
Drawing 80a or less it would be a 3% voltage drop or less
2 hots, neutral & a ground
Plus 2 ground rods
Neutrals & grounds kept separate at the sub
Neutral bar not grounded to the case

I recently inherited some firearms, 2 of which are .38 Super, an AMT Backup and an EAA Witness.
My wife uses a S&W .38 (5 shot "snubby") for home protection when I'm not there. Today as we were heading to the range for a little r&r, she picked up a box of the .38 Super's and asked, "These are for my gun, right?"
Although I have a couple of .357's, I've never worried about her putting .357 cartridges in her .38 because they won't fit. However, the .38 Super's go right in the cylinder. If she makes a mistake, is it dangerous to fire the .38 Super's in her .38?
Also, I don't know much about AMT and EAA. They feel good in the hand (especially the EAA Witness) and the performance numbers I have found for the .38 Super's seem to be better than 9mm. What are your feelings about these weapons and this caliber.
The AMT certainly fits my front pocket well and I am considering using it as my carry gun (due to the way I dress, a front pocket carry is the only practical way for my to carry concealed).
One last question, his collection contained a semi that says, "Made by FEG HUNGARY" and is in 9mm Browning Short (which is, I think, .380). It is a nice looking little gun, but I can find almost no information about it on the net. Any of you guys know anything about it?
My Uncle had quite a collection, mostly handguns and mostly S&W. Colt and Glock, but I need to find out as much as I can about these "odd" guns.

Here come the teens… A teenager speaks
This week at Tamar we've been lucky enough to host a work experience person, in the shape of one Rachel Hosie. Rachel has been working with the Social Media team, helping us with some data gathering and doing some top-secret research. But one of the things that we spent some time looking at was the Morgan Stanley teenage report from a few weeks ago. Rachel was so intrigued by the research that she did some of her own. We won't give out the full details at the moment, but she was kind enough to write us a blog post about some of her findings:
According to reports, Twitter has been generally considered an adults' (35+) social network. However, the times seem to be changing! The buzz about Twitter is growing amongst teenagers and more of us are joining. This was recently echoed in an article that appeared on Mashable.com. To quote a 16-year old friend of mine, "it is better cause it is like straight forward..do your status and like then you are done…cause I personally think that writing my status is fun. Oh and you can put pics..attached ..and aim a status at someone, which is cool." A quick poll of my 20 closest friends revealed that 20% of them have signed up to Twitter in the last two weeks, and they generally seem to be enjoying and sticking with it!
One feature that really attracts teenagers to Twitter is the fact that we can follow celebrities. This is very exciting as it allows us to interact with them in a way that we never have been able to before.
However, not all the "yoof" of today are quite so keen, to quote another friend, "I don't get why you'd follow someone. Isn't that just like Facebook?" Facebook was originally taken over by teens a couple of years ago and we all joined up purely because everyone else was. I can see this now starting to happen with Twitter, one new teen Twitterer said she joined because "most people were joining up and I didn't want to be one of the last to join." Teenagers are all about climbing the social ladder and keeping up to date with what's going on, and if all their friends jump ship to Twitter, they don't want to be the last one on Facebook if it's sinking!

text: Hi guys, Thought I'd post a pic of a big Blue Wildebeest I took today, quick stalk ended in a 42yard quartering away shot, the arrow entered just to the right of where my sight bracket is in the photo and stopped in the far shoulder. The 550gr arrow tipped with a 130gr Muzzy 4-blade out of my 80# Carbon Matrix penetrated the whole length of the body before being stopped by the far shoulder. That is some serious penetration on an animal this big... All the best, Engee Potgieter

This may well be the nicest house for rent in the Poconos but why take our word for it, click the web site link at the bottom and read our customer reviews.
Location Details: Location
Himmlischer is located at the top of a private four season community complex, offering year round activities. The lodge, restaurant, bar, food market, pool, tiki bar, waterslides, tennis, basketball, volleyball, and bocci ball courts are right next to the house at the lodge.

A spa with indoor pool, golf, rafting, canoeing, paintball, Eagle Institute observation area, museums, miniature golf, go carts, batting cages antiquing and family fun park are all minutes away.
House Design: The center piece of the top floor is a commercial, Tapan-Yaki steak house kitchen and nicer furniture and cabinets than I have in my own home. Before drafting the house, we blueprinted the fun for every activity and part of our think-tank process was considering where adults and children of each age group would congregate. Adults savor the top floor most often and teenagers congregate in the game room. We put plasma TV's and DVD players in 3 of the bedrooms so that parents can put cartoons on for toddlers.
The first floor was designed for families with the youngest children in mind. Since they are usually the first to wake up and go to the game room theater, everyone else above them can still get some sleep. We also recognized how hard it can be to get kids to eat when they are having fun, so we put an extra kitchen on this level and a card table.
Every conceivable thing that you will do here, we have done at other rentals and brainstormed about making it better.
A number of college friends and I are mother's of middle school aged children. We decided we needed a break and rented this beautiful house for a few days as a last minute get-away. We had a lovely time. The accomodations were great and we spent our time relaxing - the hot tub on the upstairs porch with a great view contributed to our relaxing - and we left rejuvenated and refreshed. The owners built this house to be enjoyed - they thought of everything that would make this happen. Thanks!
THis is such a beatutiful house with everything you need to live in and have fun with your friends. Perfect place to stay away from the city and enjoy the peaceful life. It is so nicely renovated and have full equipment for entertainment.
Large House, With Room To Spare. me And My Family And Friends Enjoyed Our Weekend Here Immensely. Fully Intend To Return For A Longer Stay. Property Manager Was Helpful And Easy To Get In Touch With. I Have Nothing But Great Things To Say.
Thank You For A Lovely Weekend.
A group of ten friends met together at Himmlischer for a few days of fun. We had a great time at this beautiful house. It was clean and comfortable for all of us with lots of room to go off for some alone time to read a good book. We were able to enjoy cooking together in the large kitchen and then relax over our meal at the large dining table. We especially liked watching movies on the big screen. It was great to be able to recharge in the peaceful surroundings. Thanks for allowing us to rent your property.
This place was fabulous for our last minute friends and family get away. It has been recently refurbished giving it a new home feel. We had a fun vacation with our multi-age group. Our kids had plenty to occupy them inside and out in this wooded setting. It was great to see them disconnect a bit and enjoy nature and some physical activities. The house was so comfortable and the huge deck provided a quiet place to get some pleasure reading done while still enjoying the outside. Everything was in tip-top shape, and we easily able to use all of the in-house electronics on the one rainy day we had. We used kayaks on the nearby lake and also went fishing, with our youngest showing great excitement with her first catch. The kitchen was spacious and allowed us to enjoy meal preparation and eating together which was a great luxury for our families, which for most of the year are on the go none stop. I happen to love the peacefulness that a beach setting in July does not provide. We are talking about planning a return visit in the winter for skiing and just plain enjoying the company of each other. Loved it!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home in Masthope. We brought friends that had arrived from Europe, and it enabled us to enjoy our time together in a relaxed atmosphere. Cleanliness is important to me, and this house met my standards. The children of our friends were college-age and enjoyed the space and amenities this house provided for them and not to have to be with those of us that were "more elderly." The spacious and well-equipped kitchen allowed enough space for us to prepare meals together and then together to enjoy them. We are not skiers though it was fun to watch those who were skiing. The teens in my family and the two friends they brought did enjoy tubing. The scenery in the area is beautiful. All around it was a fun trip. Thank you Scott for helping us book our stay and answering our questions.
What a wonderful four day break Himmlisher provided for my family who gathered there after Christmas. The owners of this house listen and respond to the comments by their tenants as they have made many updates to this house. It was lovely! The open floor plan allowed us to cook and eat (large center island and great cooking facilities) and others to gather by the gas fireplace. No one felt isolated. The view from the rooms at the property afforded a sense of serenity which we all needed. There was also something for all of the various ages of our group's children who were able to occupy themselves with movie watching in a theater-like setting, playing in the game room, challenging each other with the electronic games, using the hot tub, and taking long walks. The adults enjoyed this as we were able to sip our wine by the fireplace and get caught up with each other. The bedrooms were private and the cozy, terry cloth robes were a nice amenity. The Jacuzzi was another treat that provided my husband and me with that get-away feeling.
Scott, the property manager, answered all of the questions we had before booking in a timely fashion (and I emailed him a number of them). Once there I did have to call him once after arrival, and he answered promptly and was able to answer my question. Things were prepared for us upon arrival, and the place was immaculate. My family is thinking we will book again at the same time next year and make it an annual family get-together. It was an ideal way to make family memories and create bonding between our children as we do not live near each other during the rest of the year. Well worth it! Thank You!
