text: WASHINGTON, Nov. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A study guide for those planning to take the new software engineering exam is now available from IEEE- USA. It includes 40 representative questions and solutions, a suggested reference list and test specifications. The Principles and Practice of Engineering (PE) Software Engineering exam – PE Software exam – will be offered by NCEES, The National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying, for the first time in April 2013. IEEE Fellow Dr. Phillip Laplante, a professor of software engineering at Penn State University's Malvern, Pa., campus and chair of the Software Engineering Licensure Examination Development Committee, said the study guide is an essential tool in preparing for the exam. "All prospective exam takers would be well-served to review the book to help identify weaknesses in their knowledge prior to taking the exam," Laplante said. The study guide is $39.99 for IEEE members and $49.99 for nonmembers. http://ieeeusa.org/communications/ebooks/info.asp?Keyword=career&Product=Software+PE+Exam+%96+Sample+Questions+and+Solutions#= PE Software exam registration begins 17 December. Check http://ncees.org/exams to find out about your state's approval and registration process. See exam specifications at http://engineers.texas.gov/downloads/ncees_PESoftware_2013.pdf. Many state licensing boards have long contended that because software engineers play a significant and expanding role in the design and operation of safety-critical systems, they should be regulated in the same manner as other engineering disciplines. Projects affecting public health, welfare and safety -- such as electric grids, traffic control systems and water treatment plants -- require licensed engineers to verify that design work is done properly. The PE Software exam was developed under the auspices of IEEE- USA, the IEEE Computer Society, the Texas Board of Professional Engineers and the National Society of Professional Engineers. "The exam is the result of a comprehensive survey study of several hundred software engineering professionals and the hard work of a dedicated committee of practicing software engineers with extensive experience in a wide range of mission-critical systems," Laplante said.

By JOSE M. ROMERO
TORONTO – The long and illustrious careers of two of the most prolific scorers in Major League Soccer history collide Sunday when the Colorado Rapids' Conor Casey and FC Dallas' Jeff Cunningham battle with their respective clubs for the league championship.
Neither player — though both highly decorated — has ever played in the MLS Cup final. Casey's 42 career goals, all of which have been scored since he joined the Rapids in April, 2007, is a Colorado franchise record. Cunningham, who has played for five MLS teams since 1998, is second on the all-time goals list in MLS history with 132, one behind Jaime Moreno.
"I just want to win period," Casey said. "It doesn't really matter. A title would mean a lot for a lot of people, for me in particular."
The key for the Rapids, Casey said, is trying to maintain possession of the ball and dictate the pace of the game.
Cunningham, who refused to speak to the media leading up to the game battled Casey for the Golden Boot Award as MLS goals leader last season, edging his Colorado counterpart, 17-16, for the prize.
"This is fantastic for Jeff," FC Dallas coach Schellas Hyndman said. "Every player wants to be the Golden Boot winner. He also wants a championship for himself, for the team, for his family. We got a lot out of Jeff this year. We all know that when Jeff's at his best, he's unstoppable."
The window for Cunningham could be closing soon. He's 34, although one would think he'd play next season so he could go for the all-time goals record.
"Definitely a lot of respect for him," Casey said of Cunningam. "He's a great goal-scorer."
Cunningham and Casey have a few things in common. They've both been capped by the United States men's national team, they've both scored goals for the Yanks, and both are former Toronto FC players trying to win the cup in the city where they once played.
"To be back for a final is the best way to return," Casey said.
He made only two appearances for TFC in 2007 before being traded to Colorado. It was in Rocky Mountain country where Casey became an MLS scoring machine.
"Playing 90 minutes every weekend, playing with a good group of players, being healthy, it's been key," Casey said.
Casey has forgotten about being left off the U.S. World Cup team this past summer and says he has no plans "whatsoever" to actively pursue a spot on the national team.
"I just want to win a cup, that's it," Casey said.
Casey's 13 goals this season came from an effective partnership with co-striker Omar Cummings and finishing some chances.
"We definitely both benefited from each other," Casey said."I want to score as many times as I can with the club."
FC Dallas has a similar situation with Cunningham and league MVP David Ferreira.
"It's an honor for me (to play with Cunningham)," Ferreira said. "He's a such a good technical player and he prepares well and works hard."
For one of the two league legends, a win Sunday night at BMO Field would provide a celebration greater than any of their 174 combined goals.
I'd just like to say thank you, Ives, for keeping up this steady stream of coverage leading up to the final match this evening. I for one really appreciate it. 🙂
But that said, one really sort of has to wonder why you would bother. I mean, you're obviously not doing this site just for me, or just for me and the handful of others here who have not declared pretty much ad nauseam over the past week that the MLS post-season is a meaningless joke, that no one will attend the match, that no one even goes to see these teams play in their home cities, that it's all a marketing disaster for the league, that it's a shame that we don't have any real teams like NYRB or LA in the final, with real stars to watch, and that anyway it's a boring match-up and will undoubtedly be such a boring game, the foregone conclusion being that the Rapids will of course just collapse and be beaten handily by mighty Dallas (who themselves say they played the real cup final last week, of course).
I mean, to paraphrase a very different Cummings than the one on the field today, you know, pity this whining monster, the MLS unfan.
You are doing a fine job, however, whatever your rationale may be!
How is Conor Casey's MLS career "long and illustrious career" and how is he one "the most prolific scorers in Major League Soccer history"?
i'm curious to see if Cunningham gets the start today, recent practice would predict otherwise, Not sure if he even gets minutes.
Best duo in MLS, bar none. Will it be enough against Dallas?

Roy Williams says Phil Ford was the best point guard he's ever seen in college basketball. Kenny Smith was known for his blinding end-to-end speed. Ed Cota has the most assists. Derrick Phelps has the most steals. Phelps, Raymond Felton and Jimmy Black won national championships.
"There is no question about the tradition and history here with point guards," Roy Williams said. "But for me, I want those guys that have toughness and the ability to put pressure on the other team on both ends of the court.
"We're really going to try and push it and run, so they can put pressure on the team on offense; and that they can defend Raymond Felton-style and draw your line of defense way out at the half court line."
Much like the philosophy used by drill sergeants in boot camp, young star players must be torn down and built back up within the realm of the infamous Carolina system.
"It's tough and it's demanding," Lawson said. "Coach wants you to know every position, get back on defense, call the plays and run the team. He's hardest on the point guard, more so than any other position on the team. It's much harder than in high school."
After a quick start to his collegiate career, Lawson has experienced some difficulty against the ACC's elite guards, committing 11 turnovers in the Tar Heels' last two outings at Virginia Tech and Clemson.
"Those were our first two true road games, and it's been the defensive pressure," Lawson said, explaining his increased number of miscues. "Both of those teams are at the top of the league in steals, turnovers and deflections. They had a great scouting report and knew exactly what we wanted to do.
"We've been working on protecting the ball better in practice, like for example, the coaches are calling less fouls in practice. If we get smacked, they won't call it. They want us to be tough with the ball and go through with it."
Lawson will look to improve on a season-high seven turnover night at Clemson, when fourth-ranked UNC (16-2, 3-1 ACC) returns home to host Georgia Tech (13-4, 2-2) Saturday at 9 p.m. in a game televised nationally on ESPN.
The Yellow Jackets have won seven of their last eight, but have yet to win a road game this season.
Early on it appeared Lawson was going to skip the obligatory adjustment period for incoming freshmen. In his first career start Nov. 29 against Ohio State – a team at the time ranked No. 1 in one poll - he was unfazed by a big-game atmosphere on the national stage, tallying 13 points and four assists without a turnover.
Prior to the Virginia Tech game last Saturday, Lawson had played in 11 consecutive games with an incredible average of just 1.45 turnovers per game. His current assist-to-turnover ratio (2.19) still ranks second in a conference full of talented guards.
Lawson has also scored in double figures nine times with a high of 16 points versus the Hokies.
His 55 free throw attempts rank third on the team behind Tyler Hansbrough and Brandan Wright.
Williams uses a grade-level analogy in assessing Lawson's development at this stage in his career.
"I think he's in kindergarten right now, but I think he could go to grad school and graduate magna cum laude," Williams said. "He has a chance to really be good, but right now he is so new into everything it's hard to evaluate. He can get so, so much better. He's got to develop a much better work ethic and toughness, but he's got some gifts that a lot of people don't have. If he does do those other things and gets extremely focused and works hard, he'll be a heck of a graduate student when he gets done here."

In the Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage, LIBER collaborates closely with the Consortium of European Research Libraries (CERL), which focuses on cultural heritage in the form of hand-written and printed books.
The Forum focusses on making cultural heritage meaningful for today's online research environment and for the general public.
It aims to discuss topics such as digitization of originals, structured digital descriptions, 'born digital' materials as the cultural heritage of tomorrow, digital cultural heritage as primary research data for cooperative research, skill development etc.
Also, it serves as an exchange space for best practices and ideas, to encourage each practitioner in their daily concerns, and finally to support each other in common approaches, to develop vibrant networks, and meaningful collaboration.
At the time when much of a research library's focus is on managing fundamental changes to its position, its activities and priorities, cultural heritage collections continue to be a valuable asset of the library, proving a library's uniqueness, distinctiveness and identity. In LIBER, the care for our cultural heritage is the remit of the Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage. In this forum LIBER closely collaborates with the Consortium of European Research Libraries (CERL), which has its focus on cultural heritage in the form of hand-written and printed books and offers numerous services for the users of these collections.
Digital cultural heritage is about caring for the past's cultural heritage, the traditional materials, and making it meaningful for the world of today and tomorrow in an online environment. The digitisation of originals, combined with detailed, structured digital descriptions, allows for a wealth of co-operative research, new approaches and connections, and deeper insights. Digital cultural heritage, while harnessing a new environment, continues to bring primary research data (mainly for the Humanities, and it continues to invite new research.
In addition, digitisation opens our cultural heritage up to the general public. This presents new challenges, asks for new (more educational) skills and opens up new avenues of collaboration.
Finally, the materials that are 'born digital', which are electronic by nature, and are the cultural heritage of the future, are firmly within the remit of this form. As the information which is now made public in digital form was traditionally not published as a matter of course (e.g. correspondence between peers, research data collected over time, transcripts of lectures), we need to develop new guidelines. Which e-mails do we keep, how do we maintain important research reflected in portals, websites and VREs for posterity? Libraries are faced with new challenges: the administration of this kind of material (acquisition, selection, description, access), the burning question of long term preservation (including maintenance of functionality, more unresolved today as preservation makes progress and a number of legal issues.
In the LIBER Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage, we aim to keep discussions on these topics alive; we aim to learn from each other in best practice and excellent ideas; to encourage each other in the daily concerns; and finally to support each other in common approaches, vibrant networks, and meaningful collaboration.
1. Bring together an active group of participants and draw up a time-tabled list of activities
An outline of the work covered by this Forum is presented in Claudia Fabian's paper presented to the 'Reshaping Research Libraries' Workshop (June 2013). The Forum has a dual approach with a small flexible core group (to initiate activities, to coordinate events, and bring together relevant information) feeding into a much larger group who are informed, invited to participate in (the organisation of) events, and called upon to share all manner of relevant information. If you want to join the forum you are invited to contact Marian Lefferts.
The Forum prepares annual reports for the LIBER Libraries:
- Annual _report_ 15_16 Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage
- Annual _report_ 14_15 Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage
- Annual_report_13_14 Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage
2. Ongoing activities:
- The LinkedIn page Heritage Collections and Preservation, a sub-group of the LIBER LinkedIn page, continues to attract new participants.
- Participation in the Early European Books Library Advisory Board, to advise and support the development of ProQuest's EEB (Early European Books) collections.
- Work on the programme for the 4th LIBER Workshop on Digital Curation (2016) has begun.
- The Forum plans to prepare a high-level overview of technical issues that are being approached in a variety of projects and library workflows and to present these as fact sheets through the LIBER website (e.g. Digital curation, Image recognition, Viewers for cultural heritage material). The aim is to raise awareness of these activities to ensure that work is not duplicated and to stimulate collaboration rather than parallel developments.
3. Events:
- Workshop of the LIBER Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage (Helsinki, 29 June 2016)
The theme of the workshop was 'Discoverability of Digital Collections'. Libraries, archives and museums are all actively digitising their collections, and providing access to digitised materials via their websites, VRE's, public-private partnerships with publishers, cross-sector platforms such as Europeana, WikiMedia, etc., all with the end-user firmly centre-stage. The investment has been huge, but the return-on-investment has proven hard to measure, and re-use is reported to be low. Details of the programme may be found here.
- Recording provenance evidence II (Salamanca, 16 March 2016)
A second workshop on 'A coordinated approach to recording and searching provenance records and images: moving forwards',was organised by CERL and REBIUN at the University of Salamance (16 March 2016). The programme and powerpoint presentations are made available here.
- Workshop of the LIBER Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage (London, 24 June 2015)
The theme of the workshop was 'The state of the art in Image recognition'. Image recognition has the potential for being extremely useful to improve the discoverability, comparison and description of images in cultural heritage material thanks to digital procedures and, applying intelligent technical developments. Details of the programme, and the information presented by the speakers may be found here.
- Printer's devices (Vienna, 17-18 March 2015)
A conference on 'Signa vides – Researching and recording printers' devices: current activities and new perspective's, organised under the auspices of CERL by Professor Dr Anja Wolkenhauer (University of Tübingen), Michaela Scheibe (Berlin State Library) and Dr Andreas Fingernagel (Austrian National Library) took place in Vienna on 17-18 March 2015. Articles are currently being prepared and CERL intends to publish the proceedings. Powerpoint presentations are made available here.
- Recording provenance evidence (London, 11-12 March 2015)
A workshop on 'A coordinated approach to recording and searching provenance records and images: moving forwards',was organised by IFLA RBMS and CERL at the Warburg Institute (London, 11-12 March 2015). This was a follow-up to the successful Pre-SHARP CERL Workshop in Antwerp (September 2014). Conceived as a series of roundtable discussions, the programme explored a coordinated approach to recording and searching provenance records and images. Discussion topics included: What do we have and what do we need? Can we agree upon a common model or metadata structure; How do we achieve interoperability between existing databases; Can we consider a contributed model that includes scholars, libraries, and research institutions; What are the principal challenges (ex: coat of arms)?; and the use of Inconclass. The programme and powerpoint presentations are made available here.
- The First Conference of the CERL Security Network (Vatican, 8 May 2015)
The former LIBER Security Network is now hosted by CERL. LIBER Libraries are encouraged to join the CERL Security Network for their physical collections, the Forum acting as an adviser: please contact Marian Lefferts.The Security Network organised a conference on 'Library Security: Practices and Strategies', which was hosted by the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana and took place on 8 May 2015. The full programme is available here.
- Provenance research – SHARP (Antwerp, 17 September 2014)
CERL organised a workshop on 'Historical Provenance Research: Material Evidence, Documentary Evidence, and Digital Humanities' (presenters included M. van Delft, C. Dondi, M. Hulvey, M. Lefferts, P. Cullhed). It focused on today's integrated approaches to provenance research. Another stream focused on other European projects on provenance research integration, as well as on the use of documentary evidence to complement evidence-based historical research. Finally, there was a discussion on digital repositories for provenance images.
- Workshop of the LIBER Forum for Digital Cultural Heritage (Riga, 3 July 2014)
– Ivan Boserup: CERL Manuscripts Expert Group
– Renata Šolar, National and University Lib, Ljubljana: Maps Expert Group
– Kristian Jensen, British Library, London: CERL Security Network (Presentation)
The programme contined with a Report on the 3rd LIBER Workshop on Digital Curation (Vienna, 19-20 May 2014) by Saskia van Bergen, University Library, Leiden (Presentation) and Marian Lefferts, Consortium of European Research Libraries (Presentation), a presentation by Marian Lefferts about CERL in the years to come (Presentation), and finally a session during which participants in the session reported on their own projects and proposals, research and new initiatives.
- 3rd LIBER Workshop on Digital Curation (Vienna, 19-20 May 2014)
The programme for the 3rd LIBER Workshop on Digital Curation can be viewed on the Workshop website. Key note speakers were Herbert Van de Sompel (Los Alamos National Laboratory Research Library) and Norbert Lossau (Vice-President of Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Director of Göttingen State and University Library).
– The programme and power point slides are available via http://liber2014.univie.ac.at/
– Pictures of participants and speakers are available in the picture gallery http://liber2014.univie.ac.at/pictures/
– Paul Ayris summed up the workshop in seven points http://libereurope.eu/blog/report-libers-3rd-digital-curation-workshop/
– Participants posted many tweets: #DigCur2014
4. Electronic resources
The Forum aims to support an international exploration and discussion on how digitally-available provenance information is best recorded and exploited across collections. Much information about provenance has been brought together in the Provenance pages of the CERL website and also in further online resources.
Book bindings
At the time of the LIBER Annual General Meeting in London (June 2015), CERL and LIGATUS organised a satellite event with expert seminar on describing book bindings, and high lighting CERL's activities in the field. The CERL Working Group on Book bindings has followed up on this event, and has planned an ambitious programme of work, which includes:
Greater advocacy for publishing (images and descriptions of) book bindings on the internet
Instructions on how this can be done (incl. varying level of detail in the descriptions, and suggested standards for digitising bindings)
Include rubbings collections in the Working Group's remit
Work with collections to implement the LIGATUS glossary for describing bindings
Recently, the Working Group has brought together an extensive list of electronic resources for book bindings .
IFLA Guidelines for Planning the Digitization of Rare Book and Manuscript Collections
IFLA Rare Books and Special Collections have drawn up an important set of digitization guidelines addressing the specific needs related to planning digitisation projects for rare and special collections. They are written from the point-of-view of special collection managers, rare book librarians, curators, and researchers who study the physical object as an artefact bearing intrinsic historical evidence as much as for the intellectual content that it contains.They can be downloaded here.
The Rare Books and Manuscripts Section (RBMS) of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL), is a division of the American Library Association (ALA). Their website contains much information that is also of interest to this group.
Manuscripts Expert Group
The former LIBER Manuscripts Expert Group is now hosted by CERL. The Manuscripts Expert Group has an independent secretariat, chaired by Dr Jutta Weber of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, and the liaison between the Expert Group and CERL is through the CERL Manuscripts Working Group. The website of the Manuscripts Expert Group contains much valuable information, also about the manuscript activities in European countries.
The following events and publications are worthy of note:
- The 11th Digital Approaches to Cartographic Material took place in Riga (April 2016), and the conference proceedings have been published.
- LIBER Quarterly has published several relevant articles, including:
- Weisbrod, D., (2016). Cloud-supported preservation of digital papers: A solution for special collections?. LIBER Quarterly. 25(3), pp.136–151. DOI: http://doi.org/10.18352/lq.10114
- Lahti, L., Ilomäki, N. & Tolonen, M., (2015). A Quantitative Study of History in the English Short-Title Catalogue (ESTC), 1470-1800. LIBER Quarterly. 25(2), pp.87–116. DOI: http://doi.org/10.18352/lq.10112. NB These authors are now working on a similar analysis of CERL's Heritage of the Printed Book database.

he told me he had gone to wedMD, he was pretty quiet most of he night. I'm guessing he's struggling with what he read/saw and how that applies to him. He'll talk more when he's ready.
At least we dealt with the elephant in the room!

I know that if I draw a hard line I'll alienate DH and I'm not ready to do that yet.
So my plan is to:
1) have him conduct his own research on the internet and if he still wants to do it then...
2) have a heart to heart about why I don't think it's right then....
3) Have him watch a video with the understanding that IF after watching the video he STILL wants to circ then he'll be the one "holding baby's hand"
4) We're not going to have a hospital birth so circing won't be an option until MUCH later (all the hoops to get an appt w/ a urologist will mean they'll have to use anesthesia and hopefully enough time will pass that he'll see foreskin as "normal")
5) play the mom card and just flat refuse (my absolute last ditch effort)
DH is generally open-minded and he's open to the idea of not circing. He just feels that "how can it be THAT bad if it's been done for 60 years..." "If it was really so wrong why didn't medical establishment stop doing it years ago" "my parents circ'd me and I'm okay" So he's asking questions and requesting facts to work through it all. He wants to make sure that we make the RIGHT decision, he's just not sure what that is yet.
If I get witty or snarky or whatever you call it, it'll jut shut down the dialog we have and that won't do anyone any good.... remember, I'm not willing to TTC until we get this worked out. Any ideas on how to get him to actually sit down and do research??? I can repeat information all day long but it's not as impactful as if he read/discovered it on his own.
I did however share with him some of the info I got off Yoshua's recommended sites last night... he just got really quiet and then we went to bed. I'm assuming he was thinking. :

|The only thing is we both know that he's not going to convince me and i don't want not circing our son to be a point of contention. I don't want it to be "well, DH couldn't convince me to do it, so we didn't" that puts all the "power" in my hands when I feel it should be a joint decision.

|I think that rather than "Well, DH couldn't convince me to do it, so we didn't," something like "Well, DH couldn't convince our newborn son to do it (since after all he was too young to give informed consent), so we didn't" would be more accurate. Meaning, it really shouldn't be a joint decision. It should be the child's decision. I think that more than putting the power in your hands, you're putting in in your son's hands.

|I can see your point... however regardless of the outcome it's still a decision that parents initially make (child can decide to have himself circ'd as an adult)... personally I feel that "Well, DH couldn't convince our newborn son to do it" would come across as flippant.

On the "Serenity," Keeping Alert for an Icy Voyage Ahead
The largest cruise ship to navigate the Northwest Passage stopped in Nome on Sunday. But onboard, all attention was focused on the days to come.
The largest cruise ship to navigate the Northwest Passage stopped in Nome on Sunday. But onboard, all attention was focused on the days to come.
The Crystal Serenity will bring around 1,000 passengers to Nome's shore. "If everything falls into place like it's supposed to, it'll be a good day," says Robin Johnson of Nome Discovery Tours.
A Swiss family has been at sea for 16 years, striving to reach the tops of the tallest mountains on each of the seven continents. Their epic journey has now brought them to Nome.
The resignation of Rolland Trowbridge was announced at the Port Commission's latest work session.
Nome's Mayor Richard Beneville, Port Director Joy Baker, and Port Commissioner Megan Alvanna-Stimpfle traveled to the lower-48 to encourage Arctic development in Nome.
Upon being sworn in as Nome's new Mayor, Richard Beneville explained his priorities, which include port expansion and tourism.
As sea ice melts and temperatures rise, cruise ships, mainly European ones, are taking advantage of the Arctic's more navigable waters.
October's Story49 features Rolland and Deb Trowbridge reminiscing about their family sailing adventure that ended unexpectedly in Nome.
We continue to be amazed – both by the challenges that life in rural Alaska presents, and by the goodwill and hard work that those challenges…
This Thursday on Sounding Board (March 21, 2013 at 10am), we're talking about the future of goods being shipped through the Arctic Ocean. Scientists predict that…

Yes, only if Chloe does to
You know that you will eventually have to put the diapers on anyway, but you won't go down without a fight. You say that you will only wear them if Chloe does to. This causes her to immediatly stop laughing and turn to your mom. "You aren't actually going to put me in a diaper are you?!" she asks. "You're going to need to honey. Now lay down so that I can change you and your sister." your mom says. Chloe reluctantly does so and gets diapered with you. Does your mom get something else from the store or do you immediatly head out?

When inspiration strikes Bam Margera, he rarely ignores the urge.
Like on Sunday, for example, when the ôJackassö and ôViva la Bamö star decided on the spur of the moment to hold an art show on Tuesday at the skate park situated on his property outside West Chester.
And heĺs only inviting a few close friends Ś mainly, whomever wants to show up.
For the occasion, Margera is pairing up with West Chester fine artist John Hannafin for the third time, after having shared a double bill at the Chester County Historical Society last spring and one in Exton last summer.
Margera missed their first show together in West Chester, however, after he took a header off of Metlako Falls in Oregon with pro kayaker Steve Fisher in a stunt gone horribly wrong.
ôYeah, I ruptured my hernia,ö Margera said.
In the past few years, the stuntman prankster has produced hundreds of paintings and has even managed to sell more than a few.
ôThe first art show I ever had, before the doors opened at 6, I already sold six paintings,ö he said. ôThe only problem is I donĺt know how to put a price tag on my paintings. I donĺt care about the size ů I care about how much I like it.ö
Margera and Hannafin will both present between 15 and 20 paintings, with Hannafinĺs more traditional architecture and landscape pieces juxtaposed against Margeraĺs wild and impressionistic works.
ôIĺll buy, like, 10 canvases at once and work on one, mainly. But then I Jackson Pollack the hell out of everything Ś including my house. But sometimes paint will splash on other canvases and sometimes, by accident, things will start looking cooler on the other ones,ö Margera said.
Margeraĺs chosen medium for his painting is, basically, ôanything and everything.ö
That includes traditional media like oils and pigments to bodily fluids in a few selections.
The show will cap off with a live performance by Margeraĺs band, whose full name isnĺt mentionable in a family newspaper; letĺs just abbreviate it as FFU and leave it at that.
ôWe had 15 sold-out dates in Australia, and five in Canada, and we just did 10 shows in America,ö Margera said of the punk rock and cover band he does vocals for. ôAnd for the summer, weĺre going all over Europe. Like, Eastern Europe ů I live on the tour bus.ö
Margera met Hannafin shortly after purchasing a copy of his ôWest Chester Dreamö painting.
Since then, the two have struck up a friendly and creative partnership, with each finding some inspiration in the otherĺs works.
ôIĺm stoked that Hannafin said, ĹDude, I like your technique.ĺ And Iĺm like, Ĺ(Whatĺs) my technique? I donĺt have one.ĺ My technique is, put everything on everything,ö Margera said. ôHe went to school, he was taught how to do proper art. And it is. My art is just hell on wheels.ö
ôHeĺs like pure street energy, and I feed off of that,ö Hannafin said of Margeraĺs style. ôListening to his music frees my painting style so much, which is good because I try not to be so tight.ö
Margera and Hannafin are hopeful for a good turnout Tuesday afternoon, with both aware of the short time the project came together Ś and that it came out of a random conversation two nights ago.
ôItĺs art for the sake of art,ö Margera said. ôJust come on out and have a good time.ö
Whatĺs more rock Ĺnĺ roll than that?
Margera and Hannafinĺs show is at Castle Bam, 435 Hickory Hill Road in West Chester. The gates open at 5 p.m. Ś use temporary gate code 0070 Ś and the show runs until 9 p.m., with FFU performing about 7 p.m.

Beware the Dangers of CEO Fraud
Most people have heard of a variety of fraudulent email scams. You are contacted by someone trying to get you to log into an account, or send money for a product you won't ever receive (or don't need). CEO Fraud is a newer take on a traditional trick; a target version of a phishing scam called whaling attacks. Instead of pretending to be from a particular company with whom you do business, the scammers pretend to be someone in power at your own company.
Why does the scam work? Consider these key details.
Most People Will Jump to Help Their Boss
When you receive an official looking email from a superior, you normally jump into action. And scammers are counting on that.
Those running these scams know that you are not going to hesitate if you think an email is coming from someone above you in the chain of command. You will go out of your way to handle the request quickly. You may not even ask many questions about the legitimacy of the request.
Since you want to complete the task quickly, you may not notice the warning signs of a potential scam.
How the Messages are Created
Attackers start by getting details about current executives. Often, this information is readily available. Next, they mimic the structure used by that company's email system. The messages in the email are designed carefully designed. Normally, the emails include instructions for a funds transfer.
Some targeted towards Human Resource professionals will also for details from personnel files. If received, the information is used to commit acts of identity theft and other forms of fraud.
If an employee complies with the request, they can be targeted repeatedly. Since the first request was handled without an unnecessary amount of trouble, they can assume they will continue to do so.
Even Mattel Got Caught by Surprise
One of the most notable occurrences of CEO fraud happened to Mattel, the toy manufacturer best known for the Barbie line. A finance executive was tricked into sending $3 million (approximately £2.3 million) to an account in China. Though the money was ultimately recovered, this shows how convincing these emails can be.
An aerospace parts manufacturer based in Austria, FACC even fired some high level executives after they were victims of a scam. The loss came in at €42 million (£36 million).
False Invoices and Bills
Another scam aimed at businesses include sending fraudulent invoices and bills. This trick can work if the charge seems legitimate. For companies that receive a large amount of mail daily, it is easy to get a fake invoice mixed up with a real one. This is another instance where a business may be targeted repeatedly if the first attempt is successful.
How to Fight Back
The advice given for regular phishing attempts also applies here. If you receive an email that asks for a large funds transfer or sensitive information, take the time to verify the request is actually coming from the person the email claims to be from. Don't reply to the email or call any phone numbers listed in the email, as these could be part of the scam. Instead, find contact information on your own, or report the incident to a supervisor. By taking precautions, you can help stop a scammer from costing your company, and possibly costing you your job.

"Had you considered, they were watching to see everyone had a shower...."
DJW's favourite fantasy.
#6 Dec 9, 2013
And from 1978. He lives in the past, but it's not even a real past. Certainly not HIS past. It's a distant past of sexual fantasy for DJW, a "man" who admits to being in his forties and who has never been kissed romantically. His lonely, sad way of life is itself the kiss of death. Indeed, he's already dead. He just won't lie down.

To the charge of exposing you as a pedo and a liar, yes, I plead guilty.
#10 Dec 12, 2013
So now you post as a female! And a sensible female, albeit disabled, at that. What's next, DJ?? Do you even read what you post?
#12 Dec 14, 2013
I am an educator, DJ. I began my adult life as a teacher, and following a break of two decades in government, I returned to teaching. What have you done from the loneliness of your room, sitting bare-assed at your computer, besides lift from others without attribution the lurid fiction and tortured recollections of a long-distant past and get off autoerotically to the intrusive, abusive and illegal images of naked young boys?

I am an educator,. I began my adult life as a teacher, and following a period of two decades supervising boys swimming nude at a local swim club, I returned to teaching. What I have done from the loneliness of my room, is watch videos of boys being spanked bare-assed on my computer, And read correspondence from Phil about the lurid friction of tortured bare buttocks of an adolescent boy and get off autoerotically to the interesting, exclusive and legal images of naked young boys?
Dunfermline, UK
#15 Dec 15, 2013
Not an original thought in DJW's tiny, immature, underdeveloped excuse for a brain.
What a waste of chemicals he is.
DJW, do yourself and the world a favour.
Go to the vets and have yourself put down.

Do you even know where Sing Sing is, or that Sing Sing is not the real name of the prison?
#17 Dec 16, 2013
I clearly hit a nerve... insofar as DJW has nerves. He posted twice in reaction to mine, and rather than follow his usual pattern of pretending to ignore what I've said and posting the text of someone else's sexual fantasy, child porn, or embroidered account of real or imagined nudity-induced trauma back in the 1960s, 1970s, or 1980s, he actually takes what I have written and rewrites it--not once, but TWICE!! Lol. What I wrote is so terribly close to the truth of DJW's life that it had the extraordinary impact of actually pissing him off. Lol.

The resolution, supported by leader Elizabeth May, needs to be ratified by an online vote. If it's rejected, a controversial August resolution supporting BDS will stand
May's beliefs obviously aren't in synch with much of her membership, and fundamental beliefs shouldn't be negotiable, like trade policy or the price of a new rug.
May had been debating whether she would keep her position after the Greens passed a controversial resolution supporting a movement boycotting Israel
The Green Party quietly paid an additional 'stipend' on top of a House of Commons salary to a former NDP MP who became Green deputy leader
The Greens project an image similar to its leader: likeable but eccentric, a pleasant diversion from the mainstream parties, but not to be trusted with the levers of power.
Thus far, the NDP is in the lead: 147 of their 338 candidates are women
The federal Greens have filed a complaint with the Canada Revenue Agency in a last-minute bid to use the law to get their leader into an election debate this month
While calling a formal coalition between the Liberals and New Democrats a 'healthy' idea, May shied away from any suggestion of a Green merger
The Greens are just the NDP with a shiny green fig leaf over their orange nakedness.
Afraid to lurch one way or the other in this issue, the Greens called for a cessation of "hostilities" at a convention earlier this month, and declared that the party would embrace a "posture of engaged neutrality."

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Three Tell City baseball players, Trent Rainey, Gant Miller, and Reed Goffinet, helped lead the Southern Indiana Spikes to the 13u World Series title in the silver bracket in Murfreesboro, Tenn., last weekend.
By CHRIS JOHANNES, Sports Editor
ROCKPORT—Tell City graduates Trent Gunn, Shane Weedman and Trent Benningfield each had a hand in Rockport winning its 17th American Legion baseball regional title over the weekend.
Rockport beat Jasper 13-0 Friday, Newburgh 12-6 Saturday and Newburgh 11-9 again on Sunday in the championship of the four-team, double elimination tourney.
The path wasn't easy for Rockport. It came from behind in both games against Newburgh.
LEOPOLD—Donald Knieriem won the first Perry Central Music Boosters' 5-kilometer run July 9.
The course's "terrain was about the toughest this county has to offer," said race organizer Jana Faith. But Knieriem completed it in 22 minutes, 52 seconds, 3:55 faster than runner-up Dave Slaughterback.
Michael Elaman placed third in 28:19.
Jennifer Land won the women's title in 30:03. Carol Schwoeppe was second in 31:09 and Michelle Markiewicz third in 33:18.
BOONVILLE—Ohio Valley Heat, a Perry County pick-up team, used clutch hitting to place second in a 10-team age-10-and-under baseball tourney July 15-17.
The Heat trailed the Valley Cats, a travel team from northern Vanderburgh County, 4-0 after three innings of the semifinal game. But the Heat rallied for eight runs the next three innings while holding the Valley Cats scoreless the rest of the way.
Cody Axton started the fourth-inning rally with a double to center field and Ryan Morgan drove in the first run with a double to left.
TELL CITY—Smitty's Memorial Team scored six runs in the fifth inning to rally past State Farm Insurance 7-3 for the Tell City Women's Softball League playoff tourney title Thursday.
All of Smitty's scoring in the big inning came with two outs.
Candy Jarboe started it with a three-run, inside-the-park homer to the right-field corner. It also scored Allicyn Garrett and Kyli Smithson, who had singled.
By LARRY GOFFINET, Sports Editor
TELL CITY—Ryan George isn't the only son of a former successful Tell City coach who has been hired to coach the same sport his dad did: Zac Hartz also fits that bill.
Hartz, who was hired as head coach of Tell City's boys track team Tuesday, is the son of Joe Hartz, who coached the Marksman track boys 1998-2004 and guided them to a sectional title in 1999.
Perry Central has hosted its Class 2A volleyball sectional the last eight years and Tell City has hosted the Class 2A girls basketball sectional every other year in the same span, but those streaks will come to an end this year.
The IHSAA announced Tuesday its host sites for all class sport sectionals for the upcoming school year.
It was no surprise that Southridge will host the Class 2A boys basketball sectional, as it has the only gymnasium in the area that can easily hold the crowd that sectional usually draws.
By LARRY GOFFINET
Sports Editor
TELL CITY—Just as in football, Tell City hired a Tell City graduate to coach its varsity soccer team Tuesday.
But Don Foerster did not star in soccer at Tell City, as the Marksmen did not offer that sport when he graduated in 1967.
He said he learned the game from watching his sons play it, beginning more than 20 years ago when Anthony played on a North Spencer spring youth team where his teammates included current pro football quarterback Jay Cutler.

Pitiful wordsMature
Pitiful words are all I have,
how can I show you,
make you understand,
with this ill-fitting medium.
I am flesh and bone and blood,
not ink and paper,
nor am I vibrations,
nor photons
nor a smell, a taste.
To you I am words,
I want to be more,
I'm you, but different.
Pitiful words.

Grab the mike from that woman! Get the the hook-
What an opportunity missed by those commenters who do not see a cause of how abuse can manifest and to take a hard and open "look-see" at the many causes of such abuse. Marcia Singer is not dismissing Bill Cosby for his actions but what she is writing about is to look at all the causes of this situation, with one in particular, whether it is conducted by an unconscious famous person or not. By unconscious I mean a person who does not live a life of self examination, looking for the essence of truth and respect for all and acting within the principles of such behavior.
She is simply pointing out how a woman can attract such unconscious people into her life through her own unconscious behavior and not fully integrating her own life and that includes her sovereignty over her own body. She is showing how woman have been led to give themselves away and that this is an example of how predominate this is in our culture. In the essence of this article she is NOT blaming the victims. She is saying how like energetic magnets we can attract destructive people. Read it through again with out knee jerk preconceived bias.
A woman or man can be involved in an abusive relationship by attracting subconsciously those people that commit abusive relationships instead of her/his healing internally the area where the abuse comes from at the core level and there by not attracting these people anymore. And by doing so one must be able to fully and completely forgive one's self for attracting those kinds of people and to understand deeply within to "forgive them for they know what they do". That does not mean these perpetrators should be slapped on the wrist and given a pass. What this article does mean that as a moral society we need to look at every thing and that includes self responsibility for those we attract that are basically vampires and to go deeper how our society actually upholds and encourages victim-perpetrator behavior and how we unconsciously support it ourselves.
This article is self serving and ridiculous. When talking about rape, there is not gray area. Shame on the author
Any relation to Martin Singer, Cosby's pit bull attorney?
This article gives the term "mind numbing" a new meaning. Geeze, get over yourself. I didn't read the name of the author but two sentences in it screamed of the bias of a dopey woman. Sure enough, it was. I'm just glad she's not my mother, people like that are the ones bringing up the next generation of neurotic basket cases that we all get to look forward to living with in society.
The equivalent of over 300,000 Hiroshimas
by Ted Rudow III, MA ( Tedr77 [at] aol.com )
Wednesday Aug 5th, 2015
On July 16, 1945, the United States of America detonated the first atomic bomb in the barren desert of New Mexico. Less than a month after this first explosion, the U.S. dropped two atom bombs on the heavily populated cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, on Aug. 6 and 9, 1945, respectively. This first usage of the horror bomb indiscriminately wiped our over 100,000 civilian woman, children and old people--and condemned many others to a very slow and painful death.
Others were horribly maimed and burned and scarred for life! There were horrors the U.S. wouldn't even let its own people know about, wouldn't allow pictures in the newspaper.
Since WWII, "the war to end all wars", the explosive power of the combined nuclear arsenals of the United States and the Soviet Union has grown to the equivalent of over 300,000 Hiroshimas! The 8,500 warheads and bombs in the U.S. arsenal alone have a combined explosive power of more than three billion tones of TNT--about 1,500 pounds of explosive for every man, woman and child on this planet.
Dr. James Muller, a Harvard heart specialist and secretary of the Physicians for Prevention of Nuclear War, Inc., brought this out when he said, "At some point deep down inside, people know the world could explode tomorrow. " Yet some people are just talking about it calmly as though it is the natural thing to expect--that we are going to destroy each other and the World! Stanford physicist, Sidney Drell, asked in a recent New York Times article: "More and more we hear of usable Nuclear weapons, and of Nuclear weapons, fighting and winning. where are we going?--Do we even still remember what nuclear explosions do? Does the post-Hiroshima generation still appreciate the horror of nuclear weapons and the dangers posed by the prospect of a nuclear conflict?"
No animals in circuses anymore please.
A great, big shout-out and thank you to you, the members of the North Bay Organizing Project and each and every community member who continues to fight, toil and press our Sonoma County "supes" to do more than merely pass a token, feeble, toothless living-wage ordinance - like the resolution which they passed at their regularly scheduled meeting back on Tuesday, June 9th, 2015.
I was in attendance at that meeting and gave a speech in which I urged immediate passage of a REAL living-wage ordinance and, also, that action be taken by them on a number of other issues with which this county is currently confronted and urged them to exercise true leadership on those numerous issues as well.
The measure of your success will be in your ability to channel your steel resolve, your indomitable courage, your abiding spirit and your passion for all things social justice into inspiring those who may be your detractors on this issue to confront and accept the fact that no one deserves to be paid less than 15 dollars an hour for performing often menial but necessary tasks - especially those who are providing caregiving services to the elderly and disabled in their own homes - and who, by doing so, are saving the County of Sonoma literally millions of dollars a year. And this fact was iterated by a paid professional consultant retained by the County of Sonoma itself!
I am proud to stand with you on this issue - which I consider to be one of the most pressing social-justice issues of our time.
Good luck to you - and may your commitment to this laudable cause ensure that you and your fellow activists will attain eventual victory.
(Oh. And a couple more things: Don't stop calling...and, above all, don't accept their lame excuses - including the one that "There's no money." Just look at their overinflated salaries and overbloated benefits packages for concrete proof and affirmation that there's plenty.)
Re: Richard Blum -- what on earth makes you think that removing "distressed homes" that are "depressing home prices" means more housing availability and jobs for Sonoma County residents? It is exactly predatory investment schemes all the way back to the late 1990s that put us in the nightmare mess. Sorry, you're wrong.
I do really love to read articles like this including Selfie Stick Pro as a subject.
Hey, Jim Bracco--
I'd like to thank you for several things:
1. Thanks for expressing your counter-argument. As an outspoken guy myself, I know how scary that can be sometimes.
2. Thanks for admitting that you endorse genocide. At least I think that's what you implied. Your characterization of (all?) Indians as brutal seems to be in the context of justifying the Europeans' treatment of them. [Of course, there are a couple of problems with your thinking here. First of all, not all of the hundreds of Indian nations engaged in slavery, wars of aggression etc., though some did. Secondly, if pointing out that some ethnic group has done evil things justifies exterminating them, understand that this leads to an unending cycle of genocide. The same "reasoning" would justify the genocide of all Americans, then the genocide of whoever killed us, etc. ad infinitum. But something tells me that if, e.g., the Chinese did to us what we did to the Indians, you wouldn't be keen to wave their flag.]
3. Thanks for illuminating the darkness at the heart of the American psyche by responding to my attack on genocide and slavery as if that constitutes an attack on the USA. I couldn't have put the connection more clearly myself, and you did it without even trying!
4. Thanks for giving a brief list of the sort of feel-good misconceptions that make up the myth of national righteousness, so popular in the USA as well as many other countries ("...freedom, liberty, peace and prosperity..").
There's not space here to educate you out of the patriotic mythology and into an honest understanding of American history and policy. I'd offer a reading list, but I suspect you don't want your bubble popped. So I'll content myself here with a few comments:
It's unclear why you thought my smoking weed was relevant to the discussion at all. For the record, I don't do it nowadays, but I used to. When I smoked weed, I had to be careful not to be caught by the US government, which would happily have made money by criminalizing me and jailing me, substantially ruining my life in the process. So it's ironic that you bring up the subject of weed in the context of your starry-eyed rhapsodizing about how "free" we are in this country, LOL!
The idea that you consider a freedom fighter like Sitting Bull less worthy of memorialization than a genocidal slave owner like Washington speaks volumes about your values, and what is says isn't pretty.
Note that some of your arguments are the same arguments people are offering in support of the Confederate flag. If they justify waving the one flag, they must justify waving the other.
You invoke "...our ability to surmount our deficits and advance toward our ideals." But you seem oblivious to the fact that that must start with admitting (and not justifying) our brutalities. Rationalizing them and venerating the perpetrators is a recipe for continued brutality, not a path to "surmount(ing) our deficits and advanc(ing) toward our ideals."
I couldn't agree more!!!
That's a lot of grape juice.
I have a suggestion: don't stop at not saluting. Take it up a notch to show you really mean it: Pack your duffle bag and move your ass to the first country you find that has brought more freedom, liberty, peace and prosperity to the world.
The notion that Sitting Bull should replace Washington on Mount Rushmore is absurd.
The Indians weren't brutal? They didn't kill or take over other nations or own slaves? Pure pablum.
The greatness of America lies not in our innocence, but in our ability to surmount
our deficits and advance toward our ideals.
To that end 38 million Americans gave their lives to end slavery and genocide and fight
fascism and communism so you could sit in your house in Cotati and smoke weed and
write letters about how horrible the US is.
You can salute them.
+- 2,000,000 cases in cases you were wondering.
Thanks you for a clear, true message. I agree with you 100%
Re: RBlum's response to the PByrne article "Homewrecker". It's of course easy to pick on one partner in the CAH investments firm. Blum is the husband of Feinstein, our Senate Congressional Rep., so the focus may be warranted. I am actually more curious as to why any investment firm would be able to know about foreclosed housing before the public.
Doesn't this keep the housing market falsely inflated and therefore unaffordable? If these foreclosed houses were on the market, wouldn't that mean that people would be able to buy housing that was actually affordable?
Instead, the racket seems more to be that banks, realtors, and title companies are all benefitting from a real estate market that is out of reach for every day, regular hard-working people. On top of that pile of b.s., rents are so out of scale for the types of jobs available (in Sonoma County where 'service-sector' jobs, i.e. mostly minimum-wage jobs, are the fastest-growing sector). How many minimum wage jobs does one need to have and how many hours in the day must one work in order to afford rent? There aren'r enough hours in the week, nor in the day to pay upwards of $2,200+ dollars/month for a 2-br. 1-bath living space.
Oh boy, I really mis-understood! I thought "truthiness" was Colbert's word for truth, but that was my assumption. Anyway, I do see you as truth warrior who uses logic and reasoning as your basic platform for discussion. I've always respected that, and your writing skills.
I completely missed the pun of "waiving", so thanks for enlightening me! My editor persona took over....
Thanks for speaking out, Dixon... I appreciate reading your thoughts and enjoy your humor as well... Bruce Schmidt in Occidental
To Sandy Murphy: I spelled it "waiving" because it's a pun.
Incidentally, I don't think "truthiness" is a good thing. I have the impression that "truthiness" means something like propaganda or convincing BS. Am I wrong?
As always, thanks for your support.

Sears Warranty repair scam Nationwide
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
They wanted me to pay over a 100 dollars on a warranty repair of a well maintained push mower. I realized they wouldnt fix it after it was already on the truck to their repair center. Fortunately I got it back up and running and it's a great mower but I understand their warranty that comes with their mowers are a scam to try and get people to pay for costly repairs. The mower was 200 dollars, I bought a 4 dollar can of starting fluid and had it up and running again. will be weary of future purchases from sears.

British rockers QUEEN have banned audiences from smoking during their comeback tour in March (05) - because it damages their new frontman PAUL RODGERS' vocal chords.The newly reformed band lost their singer, FREDDIE MERCURY, to AIDS in 1991, but have replaced him with ex-FREE singer Rodgers.But Rodgers fears he will never be able to live up to his predecessor's performance if he's breathing in smoke fumes during their European dates.The band's guitarist BRIAN MAY explains, "The non-smoking request comes from Paul, who finds it seriously affects his voice."I hope people will understand.

It has been more than 20 years since Isabelle Thomas, 45, got her Executive MBA from ESCP Europe and she's still using the skills she learnt. Born in France and now living in America, she has developed recipe applications for iPhones that are second only to Jamie Oliver's in the download charts.
"The business I run is 100 per cent virtual and could not have been imagined 20 years ago, so it's strange to think that I am using all the tools I learnt on my MBA course. The basics of starting and running a business have not changed. It's still about design, planning and quality control. I'm using the core marketing and strategic tools I learnt, such as pricing and costing. It's like having a little business game. You use all the skills you learnt years ago. I do not think I could have survived without the international aspect of the MBA course.
I studied at the school's campuses in Paris, Oxford and Berlin and, thanks to that, I speak five languages and feel totally comfortable with any nationality.
After 10 years as a software consultant for IBM, I stopped work to have my three children – now seven, eight, and 11. I moved to the United States on my husband's visa and when we separated last year I needed my own visa to stay in the country. So, I set up my own company to persuade the American authorities to grant me an investor visa – and I should be hearing their decision in the next few weeks.
People tell me it must be hard setting up a business when you're 45, but I've found it exciting. I spotted a gap in the market for recipe apps for the iPhone and iTouch, so I set up iCooking in March last year. I produced 18 cookbooks for iPhone in 10 languages and founded my company, Apps of All Nations LLC, last November. I'm now selling 12,000 downloads a month.
I've also started a new business called ibookkids.com, which will create animated children's books for iPad. Of the 80 people on the MBA, I am still in touch with 75 of them and we remain very close. They are some of my best friends and they are very useful connections to have. For example, I found an excellent Chinese translator recently through the MBA network.
I think the spirit of entrepreneurism is in my blood, but the MBA gave me the tools to set up the company and now I am investing in others. My latest investment is in a venture that lists public toilets worldwide!
I'm managing a virtual team from my kitchen table. I have never even spoken on the phone with my developer in Utah. Nevertheless, I need to attract the right people and the only way to do that is by building my own brand. I learned how to do that in the products module of my MBA. The difference is that I am now the product! So who am I, what do I stand for? What are my core values?
The enrichment through diversity and internationalism is one of my core values and my experience as an MBA student working alongside 16 nationalities has played a major role.
Being successful means that I have to give back and I will be giving 5 per cent of the selling price for each iBook to a social cause.
That's the last step of the Maslow pyramid – from first year MBA human resources class. See, I even remember the timetable!"

Cardio-Thoracic Department. Pulmonary Unit, Pisa, Italy
To evaluate clinical and functional findings in 23 patients undergoing a successful first trial of NIV in a pneumological ward for AECOPD.
We studied 23 patients undergoing a successful first trial of NIV in a pneumological ward for AECOPD without any other comorbidity [pH: 7.34±0.03, PaCO2 65.2±11.4 mmHg PaO2: 50.3 ±11.2 mmHg respiratory rate (RR): 26±4 bpm, dyspnea (by Borg scale BS): 5.9±1.9, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS): 14.9±0.2, heart rate (HR): 97.1±11.7 bpm and systolic arterial blood pressure (ABP) 140.3±10.0 mmHg]. NIV was considered as successful and stopped when pH was normalized without tachypnoea or signs of respiratory muscle fatigue for more than 1 day and NIV time were the hours elapsed from starting of NIV to the last hour of actual ventilation. For each patient length of COPD (LD: 17.0±13.0 years), number of AECOPD as defined by worsening in symptoms requiring change in medical therapy in the last two years preceding NIV (2.3±1.5) were recorded.
NIV time was 72.7±10.7 hours and showed a significant high correlation with number of AECOPD in the 2 years preceding NIV (R2: 0.69, p= 0.0001) No correlation was found between NIV time and blood gases, BS GCS, RR, HR, and ABP before starting of NIV nor with LD respectively.
We conclude that high number of annual AECOPD may influence the time of NIV required to recover from ARF due to AECOPD.
All pharmacological, and non pahrmacological tools should be used to reduce frequency of exacerbations.DISCLOSURE: N. Ambrosino, None.

Seminole County to decide fate of 30-year gas tax
SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. - Drivers in Seminole County have had an extra tax on their gas for the last 30 years. County officials said it's been funding crucial road maintenance.
Now it's up for a vote again local governments say they don't know what they would do without that money.
The gas tax would pay for projects like fixing pot holes and road repaving, street lights and signs, but local officials said if they lose that money, those improvements could come to a halt.
Since the 1980's Seminole County and all of its cities have divvied up the local option gas tax.
Six cents have been added to the cost of every gallon of gas drivers buy in the county, and in turn the local governments use the money for road maintenance.
On Tuesday county commissioners will vote on whether or not to keep that tax for another 30 years.
"I think I'm OK with that, as long as it's helping improve the streets and the condition of the road," said Sanford driver Chara Hall.
County officials said the tax generates about $11 million each year. The county receives about 64 percent of that. Each municipality gets a varying share that depends on their project load.
Lake Mary would receive the smallest cut at 2.2 percent. But the city manager said without it they probably wouldn't be able to fund their road resurfacing program that costs $300,000 dollars each year.
Sanford officials said their budget has already been slashed $4 million in 6 years, and maintaining their roads would also be a problem without their 9.5 percent of the tax.
"Since they aren't actually increasing anything, and they're just keeping it the way it is, then it really doesn't make a difference to me," said Altamonte Springs resident Amelia State.
