January 4, 2012 – DENVER – Jay Want, MD, board chair of the Center for Improving Value in Health Care (CIVHC) has been selected to be in the initial class of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) Innovation Advisors Program, an elite group of national health care leaders who comprise the leading edge of health care reinvention. CIVHC sponsored Dr. Want's application for this program.
"We are delighted that CMS has recognized Jay's remarkable contributions and commitment to contain costs and improve the health and patient experience of Coloradans," said Phil Kalin, president and CEO of CIVHC. "We are proud to support Jay's participation in this program as it provides a wonderful opportunity for him and CIVHC to share and learn from innovators throughout the United States.
Dr. Want is one of 73 individuals from 27 States and the District of Columbia selected for the Innovation Advisors Program and is among four Coloradans selected. The initiative will help health professionals deepen skills that will drive improvements to patient care and reduce costs. Funding for this initiative is provided through the CMS Innovation Center and was made possible by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
Innovation Advisors will work with the CMS Innovation Center to test new models of care delivery in their own organizations and communities. Among other duties, the Advisors will be expected to support the Innovation Center in testing new models of care delivery, to form partnerships with local organizations to drive delivery system reform, and to improve their own health systems so their communities will have better health and better care at a lower cost.
"We're looking to these Innovation Advisors to be our partners—we want them to discover and generate new ideas that will work and help us bring them to every corner of the United States," said CMS Innovation Center Director Rick Gilfillan, M.D.
Dr. Want was appointed by Governor Bill Ritter in April of 2009 to serve as chair of the board for the CIVHC. He is the former president and CEO of Physician Health Partners, LLC, a management services organization serving over 50,000 covered lives in Colorado. He is board-certified in internal medicine, and was a primary care internist in private practice. Currently Jay is principal of Want Healthcare, LLC and consults nationally on healthcare transformation efforts.
In 2010, Dr. Want received the John K. Iglehart Award for leadership in health care policy from The Colorado Health Foundation, which recognizes the individual whose wisdom, involvement, and leadership have helped define and move forward positive reform in health care.
CIVHC will receive a stipend of up to $20,000. The stipend will be used to support Dr. Want's activities while serving as an Innovation Advisor.

|Re: First Experiance with Testlink
|Thu, 16 Aug 2012 06:12:47 GMT
Hi Raphael, To address your concern. I'd suggest we use only one project to store all test cases, and test plan will be helpful to differentiate each release. e.g. create one test plan for AOO 3.5, and another one for AOO 4.0. So one test case can be added into both AOO 3.5 and AOO 4.0 test plan. Also in the test plan you will be able enter your test result, we can call it test execution. 2012/8/14 Raphael Bircher <firstname.lastname@example.com> > Hi at all > > I played around with the new testlink instance and I want to share my > first experiances.

UK firms have reorganised, changed focus, sacked lawyers, merged and closed offices.
But innovation is dead. Here's a question: where are all the fresh ideas? And another: what's the Turkish word for innovation?
For the answers head to Berlin in September, to the marbled halls and fountains at the Hotel Adlon Kempinski, where one of the largest groups of Continental lawyers will gather for an awards evening organised by this magazine, on 23 September. You won't meet a more enthusiastic
and entrepreneurial group of practitioners anywhere in the world.
Why is this? London is not the centre of the universe. Money is coming from China, India and Russia and heading straight to Prague, Serbia and Turkey. Business is growing, the magic circle has turned its attentions elsewhere and independent law firms are picking up the mid-market spoils.
The independent firms that span Europe share no more the same legal markets as they do language or climate. For clients this is a minefield and the magic circle has historically picked up the ticket, but a need to lower costs has changed that.
Pan-regional firms and big independents are picking up more instructions across Europe's emerging markets.
Some firms, especially those in Central and Eastern Europe, have turned this regional diversity into a unique selling point, hawking themselves to US and UK law firms, as well as multi-national companies, as one-stop shops spanning 12, 14 or 16 countries. It is an easier sell than ever.
Cross-border work is second nature to most large firms in these regions, giving them the experience to expand beyond their own borders. This is fertile ground for new ideas, with firms taking UK and US models and adapting them to their own needs.
Evidence of this excitement and opportunity is written all over the entries for The Lawyer European Awards, revealing an abundance of clever ideas beyond those currently found within most UK firms. For these lawyers opportunity sits all around them at adjoining tables at The Lawyer event, but also when they return to their home nations.
Innovation is dead. Long live yenilik!

Summary and Conclusions
In this chapter, we've discussed the potential role of shame and guilt in both the causes and consequences of suicide. Theory and emerging empirical research indicates that feelings of shame are more prominent than guilt in the dynamics leading up to suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Nonetheless, experiences of shame often go unnoticed by both client and therapist in the therapeutic session (Lewis, 1971). Treatment of suicidal clients may be enhanced to the extent that therapists and other mental health professionals develop a 'third ear' for subtle markers of hidden shame experiences. The importance of considering shame and guilt in connection with suicide extends to the 'survivors' of suicide, as well. Although often overlooked, friends and family members are also vulnerable to experiences d shame and/or guilt in the aftermath of a loved one's suicide. Therapists, too, often experience similar emotional reactions that may be exacerbated by concerns Unique to their professional role as treatment providers.

Omega EPA Fish Oil Description from Source Naturals
OmegaEPA is an excellent source of fish oils, rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3's have been the subject of intensive research, due to repeated observations that people whose diets are high in fatty fish tend to be healthier than other populations. The most important omega-3 fatty acids are EPA and DHA. Preliminary scientific evidence suggests EPA may help maintain cholesterol levels already in the normal range when consumed as part of a low-fat and low-cholesterol dietary program. DHA is an important component of brain tissue.
Other Ingredients: fish oil, gelatin (capsule), glycerin, water and vitamin E (d-alpha tocopheryl).

LED ZEPPELIN: Bonham's Last Stand Was 34 Years Ago Today
Photo by BOB STRONG/AFP/Getty Images
What turned out to be the last show ever by the original Led Zeppelin took place 34 years ago today (July 7th, 1980) in Berlin, the final date of a European tour. The quartet had a U.S. tour scheduled in the fall, but that was cancelled after drummer John Bonham drank himself to death in late September.
Led Zeppelin performing "Train Kept A-Rollin'" on July 7th, 1980, which turned out to be John Bonham's last show.
The set list from that historic show included "Train Kept A-Rollin'," "Black Dog," "Hot Dog," "Trampled Underfoot," "Kashmir," "Stairway to Heaven," "Rock and Roll" and "Whole Lotta Love."

The Traces That Are Always Left Behind
I knew Doc Brewster had said to check in with him at noon, but I had no place to go without first seeing him.
Maybe twenty blocks, twenty-five is probably more likely, that is the drive from Keller and Brown to the city morgue. It was located in the basement of the old Saint Elizabeth's Hospital. Every body in town knew this Victorian-era landmark. She was a five story brick old lady with round turrets at each corner, topped with silver onion-domed roofs. She covered a whole city block, a maze of interlocking buildings, courtyards, underground passages, and miles of grey tile hallways. She had the look of a breeding of a penitentiary and a Russian Orthodox Church. In the day, Saint Elizabeth's looked tired and out-of-date; at night, she looked like a place where horror once took place and just might take place again. And of all that about Saint Elizabeth's, the morgue was the culmination of it all.
I pulled into the parking place beside the Coroner's reserved spot. Headed to the rear entrance door where after flashing my badge in front of the peep hole, the elderly security unlatched the blackish green door. Ben was his name, the security guard that is, not the door.
"How ya doing, Ben?"
"Can't complain, Lieutenant, sciatic is acting up but it's getting better. Doc's been hear since early this morning. He told me to look for you. Lord, three stiffs in one night! What's the world coming to?"
"Ben, to hell in a hand basket, I suppose."
"Yep, it's all going to hell," Ben muttered as he closed the door behind me.
The morgue was so deep in this hospital that you took the elevator down to get to it, not to the basement, but some denizen realm referred to as the sub-basement. The elevator down was more or less a service elevator, no effort to pretty it up had ever been made - a classic example of bare-bones practicality at work. The button or the Morgue was luminous red capital letter M. I thought it always a bit on the creepy side, but then again, how could morgues not be that way.
The jolt at the stop of that ride down made sure you realized that there was no more down after this stop. The doors separated slowly. The Morgue was always somewhat of a surprise to first-timers, it was all reasonably modern when set in contrast to the outside of Saint Elizabeth's. Doc's inner sanctum was a mausoleum made of chrome, stainless steel, and porcelain, all held together with the near frost of refrigerated air.
There stood Doc weighing something in the hanging scale. I really did not to want to know what. On the stainless steel table lay Miss Yellow Roses, looking far more dead now that she did last night.
My echoing footsteps on the tile floor announced my arrival. "Lieutenant. I see you made it."
'Morning, Doc, you ready for me."
"I'm always ready for you, Ian. "
"Well, what do you have?"
"Sorry to say, not too much, just a few traces of last night left behind."
By now Doc Brewster was cleaning off the blood from his hands with one of the white towels he always kept stacked on a gurney nearby. He picked up his glass clipboard and started to read.
"Well, Ian, she was strangled with a cord, but she wasn't beaten. She had eaten dinner, some pasta dish with salad. And she was drunk. She had to have consumed two whole bottles of chianti. And she had taken some pills."
"Okay, Doc, what kind of pills?"
'Well, Ian, that's what is somewhat strange. She had taken sleeping pills."
"You saying she was trying to kill herself."
"No. She didn't take enough for that. And what's even more puzzling was that she was carrying the prescription bottle in her purse. Seems a bit odd, don't you think."
"Yep. Anything else."
"Sad to say, but yes. She was going to have a baby. She was about two and a half months pregnant. We're doing the blood test now."

The human brain is amazing and sometimes mysterious. While researchers are still uncovering the secrets of how the brain works, they have discovered plenty of information about what goes on inside your noggin. Unfortunately, there are still a lot of brain myths out there.

The following are just a few of the many myths about the brain.

Myth 1: You only use 10 percent of your brain.

You've probably heard this oft-cited bit of information several times, but constant repetition does not make it any more accurate. People often use this popular urban legend to imply that the mind is capable of much greater things, such as dramatically increased intelligence, psychic abilities, or even telekinesis. After all, if we can do all the things we do using only 10 percent of our brains, just imagine what we could accomplish if we used the remaining 90 percent.

Reality check: Research suggests that all areas of the brain perform some type of function. If the 10 percent myth were true, brain damage would be far less likely – after all, we would really only have to worry about that tiny 10 percent of our brains being injured. The fact is that damage to even a small area of the brain can result in profound consequences to both cognition and functioning. Brain imaging technologies have also demonstrated that the entire brain shows levels of activity, even during sleep.

"It turns out though, that we use virtually every part of the brain, and that [most of] the brain is active almost all the time. Let's put it this way: the brain represents three percent of the body's weight and uses 20 percent of the body's energy." - Neurologist Barry Gordon of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Scientific American

Myth 2: Brain damage is permanent.

The brain is fragile and can be damaged by things such as injury, stroke, or disease. This damage can result in a range of consequences, from mild disruptions in cognitive abilities to complete impairment. Brain damage can be devastating, but is it always permanent?

Reality check: While we often tend to think of brain injuries as lasting, a person's ability to recover from such damage depends upon the severity and the location of the injury. For example, a blow to the head during a football game might lead to a concussion. While this can be quite serious, most people are able to recover when given time to heal. A severe stroke, on the other hand, can result in dire consequences to the brain that can very well be permanent.

However, it is important to remember that the human brain has an impressive amount of plasticity. Even following a serious brain event, such as a stroke, the brain can often heal itself over time and form new connections.

"Even after more serious brain injury, such as stroke, research indicates that — especially with the help of therapy — the brain may be capable of developing new connections and "reroute" function through healthy areas." – BrainFacts.org

Myth 3: People are either "right-brained" or "left-brained."

Have you ever heard someone describe themselves as either left-brained or right-brained? This stems from the popular notion that people are either dominated by their right or left brain hemispheres. According to this idea, people who are "right-brained" tend to be more creative and expressive, while those who are "left-brained" tend to be more analytical and logical.

Reality Check: While experts do recognize that there is lateralization of brain function (that is, certain types of tasks and thinking tend to be more associated with a particular region of the brain), no one is fully right-brained or left-brained. In fact, we tend to do better at tasks when the entire brain is utilized, even for things that are typically associated with a certain area of the brain.

"No matter how lateralized the brain can get, though, the two sides still work together. The pop psychology notion of a left brain and a right brain doesn't capture their intimate working relationship. The left hemisphere specializes in picking out the sounds that form words and working out the syntax of the words, for example, but it does not have a monopoly on language processing. The right hemisphere is actually more sensitive to the emotional features of language, tuning in to the slow rhythms of speech that carry intonation and stress." – Carl Zimmer, Discover

Myth 4: Humans have the biggest brains.

The human brain is quite large in proportion to body size, but another common misconception is that humans have the largest brains of any organism. How big is the human brain? How does it compare to other species?

Reality Check: The average adult has a brain weighing in at about three pounds and measuring up to about 15 centimeters in length. The largest animal brain belongs to that of a sperm whale, weighing in at a whopping 18 pounds! Another large-brained animal is the elephant, with an average brain size of around 11 pounds.

But what about relative brain size in proportion to body size? Humans must certainly have the largest brains in comparison to their body size, right? Once again, this notion is also a myth. Surprisingly, one animal that holds the largest body-size to brain ratios is the shrew, with a brain making up about 10 percent of its body mass.

"Our primate lineage had a head start in evolving large brains, however, because most primates have brains that are larger than expected for their body size. The Encephalization Quotient is a measure of brain size relative to body size. The cat has an EQ of about 1, which is what is expected for its body size, while chimps have an EQ of 2.5 and humans nearly 7.5. Dolphins, no slouches when it comes to cognitive powers and complex social groups, have an EQ of more than 5, but rats and rabbits are way down on the scale at below 0.4." – Michael Balter, Slate.com

Myth 5: We are born with all the brain cells we ever have, and once they die, these cells are gone forever.

Traditional wisdom has long suggested that adults only have so many brain cells and that we never form new ones. Once these cells are lost, are they really gone for good?

Reality Check: In recent years, experts have discovered evidence that the human adult brain does indeed form new cells throughout life, even during old age. The process of forming new brain cells is known as neurogenesis and researchers have found that it happens in at least one important region of the brain called the hippocampus.

"Above-ground nuclear bomb tests carried out more than 50 years ago resulted in elevated atmospheric levels of the radioactive carbon-14 isotope (14C), which steadily declined over time. In a study published yesterday (June 7) in Cell, researchers used measurements of 14C concentration in the DNA of brain cells from deceased patients to determine the neurons' age, and demonstrated that there is substantial adult neurogenesis in the human hippocampus." – Dan Cossins, The Scientist

Myth 6: Drinking alcohol kills brain cells.

Partly related to the myth that we never grow new neurons is the idea that drinking alcohol can lead to cell death in the brain. Drink too much or too often, some people might warn, and you'll lose precious brain cells that you can never get back. We've already learned that adults do indeed get new brain cells throughout life, but could drinking alcohol really kill brain cells?

Reality Check: While excessive or chronic alcohol abuse can certainly have dire health consequences, experts do not believe that drinking causes neurons to die. In fact, research has shown that even binge drinking doesn't actually kill neurons.

"Scientific medical research has actually demonstrated that the moderate consumption of alcohol is associated with better cognitive (thinking and reasoning) skills and memory than is abstaining from alcohol. Moderate drinking doesn't kill brain cells but helps the brain function better into old age. Studies around the world involving many thousands of people report this finding." – PsychCentral.com

Myth 7: There are 100 billion neurons in the human brain.

If you've ever thumbed through a psychology or neuroscience textbook, you have probably read that the human brain contains approximately 100 billion neurons. How accurate is this oft-repeated figure? Just how many neurons are in the brain?

Reality Check: The estimate of 100 billion neurons has been repeated so often and so long that no one is completely sure where it originated. In 2009, however, one researcher decided to actually count neurons in adult brains and found that the number was just a bit off the mark. Based upon this research, it appears that the human brain contains closer to 85 billion neurons. So while the often-cited number is a few billion too high, 85 billion is still nothing to sneeze at.

"We found that on average the human brain has 86bn neurons. And not one [of the brains] that we looked at so far has the 100bn. Even though it may sound like a small difference the 14bn neurons amount to pretty much the number of neurons that a baboon brain has or almost half the number of neurons in the gorilla brain. So that's a pretty large difference actually." – Dr. Suzana Herculano-Houzel

BHS boys: Parsons, Hayes win
ST. CLOUD — Nate Parsons and Jordan Hayes won events and the Brainerd Warriors recorded seven honor roll performances in Saturday's season-opening Huskie High School Classic at St. Cloud State University.
Parsons won the triple jump at 43-10, beating Charlie Krengel of Eastview, who jumped 42-8.5.
"44-7 is the automatic qualifying for the state meet," Warriors coach Rod Reuer said. "In the first meet, to be only eight inches from the automatic qualifying standard, that's a good start for him.
"He actually beat the kid who placed in the state last year. He was probably our top performance of the day. That was out there a ways. He was consistent with it, jumping 43-8, 43-6, 43-10."
Hayes won the 60-meter dash with a time of 7.36 seconds, topping runner-up Cory Choulnard of Elk River, who finished at 7.45.
Runners-up for the Warriors included the 4x100 relay of Winsten Fenske, Logan Davis, Isaiah Smith and Grant Reuer, Jake Kassulker in the shot put and Jackson Dols in the pole vault.
Honor roll performances (top 15 in school history) were by Parsons in the triple jump (No. 3 all-time), Hayes and Reggie Turner (7.75) in the 60 dash, and Jesse Zahn, (9.35), Jeff Fiebelkorn (9.57), Garrett Heath (10.28) and Taylor Huber (11.06), all in the 60 hurdles.

The news bulliton on your computer is particularly satisfying to read this morning. Satisfying for at least two reasons. The first of these is that another group of lieing corporates have finally got what's coming to them. The second is that this is all the proof you need to know that you're going to get paid. You smile inwardly reading the text out to yourself.
"L&C technologies took a massive hit today when an unknown individual broke into their main server and erased several key files.
The files contained the names of all the customers on L&C's database along with account details and personal information.
When questioned a statement was released stating that the company refused to make comment at this time but that the proper authorities had been alerted and that everything was being done to apprehend the individual or individuals responsible."
As you sit chuckling to yourself your email icon blinks. You open the expected annonymous message and are pleased by your clients hasty response.
"I have seen todays broadcast. Thankyou for your time the £10,000 has been wired to your account as promised. We will be in touch."
You are still celebrating as your letterbox opens and bangs closed pulling you from your reveries. A brown paper parcel has landed on your doorstep.
You open the package while walking back to your office but stop in horror to see that what you are holding are printouts of log files that you were sure you'd deleted, enough evidence to put you away for quite some time. There is also a note which reads.
"I know who you are and what you've done. You work for me now or you never work again. Meet me at East Street Diner at noon for your first assignment. Come alone or you'll find the police, if you don't show the police will find you. I suggest you are prompt.
Your morning and your celebrations ruined you think hard about your next move.

I made a goal this year to post a video a week (some new and some old) on my YouTube channel and here on the blog. I have a lot of footage from last year I need to go through and do something with. This video project seemed the perfect way to put all those memories into bite-sized stories.
Here's the first a flashback to last May over Mother's Day weekend.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Microsoft co-founder and philanthropist Paul Allen on Monday announced he was giving $100 million to create a disease research institute in Seattle, Washington.
The Allen Institute for Cell Science aims to speed up global research by focusing on cells and creating predictive models of how they react when faced with disease.
"Cells are the fundamental units of life, with every disease we know of affecting particular types of cells," said Allen.
"Scientists have learned a great deal about many of the 50 trillion cells in our bodies over the last decades, but creating a comprehensive, predictive model of the cell will require a different approach."
He said the Allen Institute for Cell Science would focus on "large-scale" integration of technology "to provide an exceptional resource for the entire scientific community."
He added that the goal is to "bring forward the treatment of different diseases."
The key questions driving the institute are how information that is encoded in the genes makes its way into cells, and what goes wrong in disease.
To answer these question, the institute will produce a "visual database and animated models of cell parts in action" to aid a "multidisciplinary, team science-driven approach."
The executive director of the institute will be Rick Horwitz, a longtime director of the National Institutes of Health's Cell Migration Consortium.

The taxi stopps and I sigh in relief at the sight of my house "How much?"
"Don't worry about it miss, this ones on the house"
"are you sure I-"
He held his hand up to signal silence "Your not very well miss, I do not wish to take money off you. You'd better head up to bed though, yourlooking a little green"
"Thankyou sir" I grabbed my belonging and exited the cab, waving as her drove off. I unlocked the double bolted door and headed upstairs to my room. My stuff lay across the floor and I got myself a glass of water, hoping it would help the dizzines.
I lay on the bed but couldn't sleep despite the fact I should, I cursed my stubborn eye lids.
I wrote in my diary instead
Dear Diary
I fainted today, it was incredibly embarressing. Worst thing is that it was on the tennis court in the middle of a game! The dizzy spells have just been getting worse and I couldn't concentrate at all today. All I could think about was that forest, it's getting ridiculous. I think I need to talk to someone about it, especial my short attension span and dizziness, I mean thats not normal...right?
I groan and thrust my diary aside Like thats gonna help Aradessa I scowl and push up from the bed. I hear the door go and run down the stairs. I open the door to see...no-one "Very mature!" I shout, getting more annoied with every passing second. I lock the door and go back to my room, wash, blow dry and straiten my hair then change into my pajamas. As I walk over to the bed I notice a piece of folded up paper on my pillow, my hands shake as I reach to take it. I read it aloud:
reverto domus illis quisnam postulo vos plurimus"
I felt dizzy again and had the sensation I was falling, I held my head "Ouch" I moaned. I felt a cold gust of wind blow in my face and opened my eyes "What the hell..."

Tomatoes in Season
Timeless Nutrition Tip
Organic Gardening magazine had some delicious ideas on how best to enjoy the nutrition-rich tomato harvest.
Lycopene, one of nature's most powerful antioxidants, is found almost exclusively in tomatoes. Tomatoes are also are rich in vitamins A, C, calcium and fiber.
- Store fruits no more than two deep to avoid bruising and rotting.
- Tomatoes taste best at room temperature but can be refrigerated for up to five days.
- To retain flavor, process them into fresh sauce or salsa, which will keep for seven to ten days in the refrigerator.
- Slice tomatoes from top to bottom, not through the center, to retain seeds.
- A tomato sauce cooked longer than 30 minutes will begin to lose flavor. Meat based sauces are an exception - the longer they cook, the better.
- For tomato towers, layer tomato slices, your choice of cheese and herbs on a slice of heavy-duty bread. Heat the tottering creation in the toaster oven and enjoy.
Did you know?
Cooked tomatoes may be more beneficial to your health than raw tomatoes.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - July 2, 1985, New Braunfels, Texas Gromyko Soviet president MOSCOW (AP) — Andrei Gromyko, the Soviet Union's foreign minister for the past 28 years, was elected president today at a national Parliament session after being nominated by Communist Party chief Mikhail S. Gorbachev. Georgia party chief Eduard A. Shevardnadze, 57, a new full member of the Politburo who has a reputation for being tough on corruption, was named to replace Gromyko, 75, in the Foreign Ministry post. Gromyko's election was a major departure from the recent Kremlin practice of having the party leader also hold the title of chief of state. There had been rumors in Moscow that Gromyko might be named president, but most Western observers discounted them. There was speculation after the announcement that the naming of Gromyko amounted to a graceful exit of a well-respected member of the Kremlin "old guard'' as the Moscow leadership swings to a new generation. However, it also showed that Gorbachev, who has made domestic economic issues his prime concern, is now ready to take control of the field of foreign policy, although Gromyko as president is still expected to be a major figure on the international scene. Gorbachev, 54, nominated Gromyko at a session which capped two days of major leadership changes, including the ouster of one-time power contender Grigory V. Romanov from the ruling Politburo. The official report of Monday's session of the party Central Committee said the Politburo removed Romanov, 62, for "health reasons'' at his own request, but it was clear that he had been ousted. Shevardnadze, 57, was elevated from alternate to voting status on the Politburo at the Monday session. Gromyko did not become a full member of the Politburo until 1973,16 years after he took over the Foreign Ministry portfolio. In Washington, U.S. State Department spokeswoman Anita Stockman said the government had no immediate comment on Gromyko's election. Gromyko was unanimously elected by the 1,500 deputies to the Supreme Soviet following Gorbachev's brief nominating speech. Gromyko expressed "sincere gratitude" to Gorbachev. "The decision adopted on this proposal deeply touched me," Gromyko said. "It shows great confidence by the Supreme Soviet."T.G.I.R.D.

Shiite terrorists who hijacked a TWA jetliner on June 14 had demanded the release of 735 Lebanese in exchange for the release of the Americans. The 39 were freed Sunday. Israel captured the Lebanese during its withdrawal from south Lebanon, accusing them of plotting or carrying out attacks on Israeli units. It freed 31 of them June 24. Rabin said Monday that at a meeting of the Cabinet's security committee, "I proposed the release of 300 of the Lebanese either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, as a continuation of our declared policy since we brought them to Israel on April 2." "We made it clear then that they were brought on a temporary basis to Israel, that we intend to release them, that we would release them in accordance with the development of the security situation in southern Lebanon," Rabin told an international conference on counterterrorism at Tel Aviv University. Israel radio said the 10-member committee unanimously agreed to Rabin's proposal. Rabin stressed that Israel had not struck any deal to free the prisoners in exchange for the Americans and that Israel had not received any requests from the United States to do so.Teachers in spaceTexas woman among those picked for shuttle ride next January ^.imtiieiiiKi'iiiiiiitiiiitn it 11 nm in itniii i i i iiii i iiiii i'iimiini'mTm'i iiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiii'mimiimmimiii {New Braunfels Pediatric AssociatesTimothy W.

The teachers, six women and four men, were named Monday as the finalists in a competition to pick a teacher to fly on the shuttle Challenger on its mission to study Hailey's Comet from Earth orbit next January. The IO became instant heroes to their colleagues. Dropping in on the National Education Association's annual convention, they were given a standing ovation by 7,500 delegates and the Idaho delegation began identifying itself as from "the space state." Two of the finalists are from Idaho. The teachers were picked from a group of 114 semi-finalists. The competition began with more than 10,000 applications. The winner will undergo 120 hours of training and fly on a mission that will launch a huge communications satellite and study Hailey's Comet with astronomy instruments cast loose into orbit and retrieved a few days later. Next Sunday, the finalists will report to the Johnson Space Center in Houston, where astronauts train, for a week of physical examinations and space simulations. The group will return to Washington on July 12 where 16 top NASA officials will interview each candidate and make a final recommendation. The finalists: Richard Methia, 40, an English teacher at New Bedford, Mass., High School; Kathleen Anne Beres, 36, a biology teacher at Kenwood High School, Baltimore County, Md.; Robert S. Foerster, 34, a sixth-grade math, computer and science instructor at Cumberland Elementary School in West Lafayette, Ind.; Judith Marie Garcia, 44, a French and Spanish teacher at Thomas Jefferson School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Va. Peggy J. Lathlaen, 34, a teacher at Westwood Elementary School in Friendswood, Texas; David M. Marquart. 43, a business and computer science teacher at Boise, Idaho, High School; Sharon Christa McAuliffe, 36, a social studies teacher at Concord, N.H., High School: and Michael W. Metcalf, 39, who teaches government and geography, grades 7 through 12. at Hazen Union School in Hardwick, Vt. Barbara R. Morgan, 33, a second-grade teacher at McCall-Donnelly Elementary Sc hool in McCall. Idaho; and Niki Mason Wenger, 45. who teaches gifted 7th to 9th graders at Vandevender Junior High School in Parkersburg. VV.Va., and also conducts seminars in computer education. James M. Beggs, the space agency's administrator. will make the final selection of one mission specialist-teacher and a backup. The announcement is expected late in July, possibly by President Reagan. Corpus Christi gets nod for Navy homeport WASHINGTON (AP) - The Navy's coveted homeport for the USS Wisconsin will be placed in Corpus Christi, Texas. U.S. Sen. Uoyd Bentsen announced today. "I am advised that Corpus Christi has been selected as the homeport for the battleship USS Wisconsin. This is really good news for Texas. It culminates a long, hard cooperative effort by the people of Corpus Christi and their local, state and federal representatives," Bentsen said. Corpus Christi was one of six cities considered as finalists for the prize, which conies with HOO million worth of construction, 7,500 sailors, 3,000 civilian jobs and an annual payroll of $50 million. The other cities were Pensacola, Fla.; Houston-Galveston; I .ake Charles, La.; Pasagoula, Miss.; and Mobile, Ala. "I have been informed that some of the vessels in the battleship's surface action group will be assigned to Gulf Coast ports other than Corpus Christi," said Bentsen, D-Texas. "This is a tremendous economic shot in the arm for Corpus Christi and all of South Texas," Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas, said today. Houston-Galveston reportedly was nixed from consideration last week because of problems in reaching solid ground to set a foundation at Galveston's Fort Point and because of the site's distance from deep water. The factor that tipped the scales to Corpus Christi, Gramm said, "was the willingness of its own citizens to vote a bond issue to raise their own taxes to put $25 million into helping build the base." Gramm estimated the annual economic impact of the port at $130 million and said it will generate $9 million rn local and state taxes. Loyd Neal, project chairman of the South Texas Homeporting Task Force, said Monday that Corpus Christi had a good proposal because its Ingleside Point would not require dredging. Corpus Christi residents in April approved a $2j million bond issue to offset costs, and the state committed $25 nullion to attract tile Navy, he pointed out. The city also has been host of a naval air station for more than 40 years. The USS Wisconsin was commissioned in 1944, but has remained at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard since 1959 The Navy estimates it will cost $454.4 million to refit the battleship and $60 million a year to operate it. The refitting should take about two years, officials have said. The fleet would include a guided missile cruiser, a guided missile destroyer, a guided missile frigate and reserve missile frigates and a destroy er tender to provide maintenance for the ships. Rat transplants raise hope for burn victims, amputees LOS ANGELES (AP) — Rats given a powerful anti-rejection drug lived to old age with transplanted legs, say researchers who believe the drug will save human burn patients and may someday allow limb transplants in people. While the rats were unable to walk normally because of problems with nerve-muscle connections, the drug cyclosponne prevented rejection of the transplanted limbs, said Kirby S. Black, a surgery instructor at the University of California at Irvine. In one of a six-year series of studies involving about 300 rats — each of which received a transplanted hind leg after amputation — seven ot nine rats lived to old age without rejecting the limbs, Black said. One rat received cyclosponne for only 20 days but lived 735 days with a transplanted hind leg before dying of old age — more than six times the previous longevity record, immunologist Charles W. Hewitt said. "It's the most significant contribution to homotransplantation of limbs since the early 1960s, when we were trying it in dogs" without success, said Dr. Harry Buncke, a microsurgeon at the University of California at San Francisco. Homotransplantation refers to transplants among members of tile same species. Doctors in Brazil did transplant a human hand in 1964, but the hand was rejected, Hewitt said. The rat experiments show that it is possible to use the powerful antirejection drug to prevent the immune system from rejecting skin, bone, tendon and other components of transplanted limbs, said Dr. Bruce Achauer, a UCI Medical Center plastic surgeon who collaborated with Black, Hewitt and Dr. David Furnas CLINT TASI WOOD PALI NIIX'H LIMITED ENGAGEMENT FEATURE TIMES 2.00. 4:15. r THURSDAY 7 OO. 915 DISCOUNTS AT 4:15 ANO 4:20 jgjgiurcT KID SHOW Tomboy and Tho Champ" llmniilmn (W «M TW !.«•< atip TV trvarWram trip* TW k«Mr« Irrwarr kwt NWI Jota IV aWain GQONteS PG 3 FEATURE TIMES 2:05. 4:20. 7.05. 1:20 I Antonio 625 4411 Experimental limb transplants in people could be tried within two years, Achauer said.

A Guardian columnist ought to know that the Human Rights Act 1998 did not create any new rights. It allows UK citizens to obtain rulings from domestic courts on the application of the European Convention on Human Rights. Julie Bindel clearly does not know this - or much else, judging by the tone of her article.

Men in dresses with birds'-nest hair chopping off their meat and two veg in order to enjoy the privileges of using the women's bog or snogging their same sex partner without fear of ridicule?! Can someone please inform the intelligent and compassionate Julie Bindel, whose amazing work for Justice for Women I have long admired, that Les Battersby is using her name to masquerade as a Sun reporter? And that the Guardian is accidentally printing his column?

What an irony to read Lauren Slater's Into The Cuckoo's Nest (January 31), reminding us of the time 30 years ago when nine volunteers could be detained indefinitely in psychiatric wards simply by saying they heard a voice say "Thud"; and, in the same day's paper, that Stephen Soans-Wade had been so desperate to get himself committed a year ago that, "after being turned away from hospitals where doctors said he was not mentally ill, he carried out his threat to push someone under a train to prove he needed treatment". Ah, progress.
Dr Shadd Maruna
Lauren Slater is to be congratulated on her experiment with psychiatry. I, too, "did a Rosenhan" and was admitted to a UK clinic in the mid-1990s. I learned more about psychiatry in the three days there than in the whole of my professional career. From the date of my discharge, I stopped believing in psychiatry. I think everyone, staff included, would have got a better deal had psychiatry originally allied itself to, say, the poor or education rather than to scientific medicine.

Bonnie Greer states that Andrea Levy is Britain's most prolific black woman writer, having written four novels (Empire's Child, January 31). While I love Levy's work, surely Malorie Blackman is more prolific, having written more than 50 books for children and young adults, of which at least 12 are full-length novels. Also, Blackman was the only black writer to make it into the BBC Big Read's top 100, with Noughts And Crosses, which I'm sure Greer knows, since I saw her on the telly at the final ceremony. Does Greer not count full-length books for children as novels?

With great size at 6'4" and 215 pounds, to go along with sub-4.5 speed, Roy Williams is almost impossible to bring down in the open field. Along with his obvious physical skills, Williams also possesses the leadership qualities that led to him receiving the Team Loyalty Award at Texas. Williams was pleased and humbled. "It will be there forever. I am grateful."
But Williams main claim to fame are the speed and moves that make him the ultimate breakaway threat. But don't be fooled into thinking Williams only likes to run around defenders. When asked about his strengths on the field, Williams didn't hesitate in making the point that he is not a shrinking violet, though with some stipulations.
"I think my strength is running after the catch. And I like to be the bully. But I know my limits. If I come across Ray Lewis, I'm not going to run him over," laughs Williams.
And contrary to what many may think, Williams not only sees it as a good thing for the team, but also for him, that Texas ran a lot this past season.
"It was real hard at first. With Chris (Simms) and Major (Applewhite), we would throw 40 times a game, and we tried to do it the first two or three games this year. But after Oklahoma put it to us, we went to what our strength is and that's running the football."
The return to a running game benefits Williams as he had the opportunity to show off his blocking skills, something he knows he will need at the next level.
"Teams knew I could run with the ball after the catch," explains Williams. "But there were probably questions about whether I can run block. You have to run in the NFL. It's kind of what the game has turned in to. If you prove you can run block in the NFL, the running back can get an extra 5, 10 yards or 50 yards and get a touchdown."
Williams is very lanky but is happy with his weight and says that it goes between 213 and 217 pounds, despite his unusual eating habits.
"I'm pretty much a McDonald's and Taco Bell guy. I've been that my whole life."
But Williams now has a trainer and sees that he has to change his ways some- but only some.
"I have a trainer and eat fat free foods," explains Williams. "But I have to get a Big Mac every once in awhile."
The main objective for Williams at the Combine is to impress the NFL scouts with his speed.
While Williams laughs that his 40 time is a secret he does allow that, "The NFL thinks I run a 4.48. That's a great time for a man my size."
Williams wants to better that mark and has taken to a stretching regime to help him.
"Hopefully, it will help my 40 time. You know I'm pretty light on my feet. If I am a little more flexible, that will make a little more faster."
With all this talk about speed you probably think Williams will run at the combine. That is not the case. Instead he will bide his time. He does not have anything to prove coming in as a top ten pick. Teams look at him and see greatness. Instead, Williams will wait to see what his competition brings to the table on March 17th in Pittsburgh. That is when Larry Fitzgerald will likely run his first forty. A week later, March 24th, on his home turf, Williams will look to take advantage.
Williams has everything a team would want in a draft pick. He possesses speed, size, hustle, character, explosiveness, and the ability to be a great teammate. And his teammates will be a team with one of the first ten picks in the draft for that is where a player with all of Williams' gifts is destined to end up.

SASO Certificate of Conformity (SASO CoC) is mandatory for any product imported to Saudi Arabia. AsiaInspection provides 3rd party SASO certification services for products.JETZT BUCHEN
All products entering the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia must comply with the requirements of the Conformity Assessment Program enforced by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry. In order to clear the Saudi customs, all imports require a Certificate of Conformity (SASO CoC) issued by an authorized 3rd party provider in the country of product origin. This mandatory Certificate asserts that the products and / or manufacturing processes comply with the Saudi national standards issued and adopted by Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization, and is therefore required for a smooth custom clearance for imported goods.
The SASO certification scheme is in line with the Saudi Future Vision for Quality 2020 program, through which the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO) aims to improve and develop the quality of the products and services sold in Saudi Arabia, by accrediting certification bodies such as AsiaInspection to ensure its implementation.
AsiaInspection is accredited as a certification body by the Saudi Ministry of Commerce and Industry & Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization. AI is authorized to conduct the comprehensive verification process for product shipments intended for the Saudi market.
Construction products
Chemical products
The certification process may vary depending on the product type, but will generally include the following stages:
If your products are found compliant with the SASO (Saudi Arabian Standards Organization) standards, AI will issue a Certificate of Conformity, which will allow your shipment to clear Saudi customs.
Any company supplying goods and products to Saudi Arabia, including apparel, toys, electronics, cosmetics, vehicles, furniture, etc. needs a SASO certification.
The only exceptions are the following product categories, which are exempt from the CoC requirements and are regulated by other standards:

Course overview
Are you looking for a thorough knowledge of criminal law and procedure in order to support your career plans? Our specialist postgraduate legal training is particularly relevant for those who are looking for higher-level roles within the legal profession, police, probation service, prison service and HM Revenue and Customs.
Our Master of Laws will add to your credentials in an area in which you already practise or are proposing to work. The Law Department at Sunderland is well-respected and was rated as best in the UK for teaching excellence, according to The Sunday Times University Guide 2012.
You will undertake two core modules: 'Criminal Law: Theory and Doctrine' and 'Law, Society and the State'. You will also choose a further two options that match your particular career ambitions and intellectual interests.
Your Masters dissertation is an opportunity to develop rigorous research skills and to explore a topic that you negotiate with your tutors. We provide expert supervision, drawing on our own research and the latest academic approaches and evidence base.
Our teaching methods include weekly three-hour workshops. You will be expected to prepare thoroughly, respond to new ideas and contribute to vibrant and thought-provoking sessions.

Catching up on things:
Here is a commissioned portrait of Stephen Hawking with an albino owl. What a guy! This was one of my first acetate experiments... I fell in love.
"Vulnerability and Prudence" Another acetate experiment, for the "Counterparts" show at the Hibbleton Gallery.
Lastly, a portrait I painted months ago. A gift for a very special man who helped me through a rough period.
My very good friend and insanely talented artist, sculptor, and designer Danielle Buerli is doing her graduate work (in Switzerland) on sketchbooks and I was inspired by our discussion to start a new 11"x14" like I used to keep in the old days. I used to keep INTENSE sketchbooks but stopped after my first year in college because I was putting every waking hour into homework and no longer had much time to just sketch without a practical application. I have a "sketch folder" which was functioning as a highly-edited sketchbook... but... I'm excited to have a real bound book again.
I'll put up the first couple pages tomorrow!

Discussion in 'Off-topic Zone' started by k19, Jul 15, 2005.
You bet. My "day job" is that of a teacher and coach. You'd be surprised - perhaps - of what these kids will bring to school. We had a gun on campus this year.
I'm all for uniform dress. Trust me, it solves a lot of shyt - including behavior problems.
Uniforms also cut out some of the social issues that teens face about what is in style and how some kids get picked on because their parents do not agree with the style or money involved to by that style.
Uniforms are always a good way brings them all down to a certain level
I totally agree with both of you. I am also an educator (sign language interpreter in high school), and it is pretty scary what some kids can get into a school. I am all for uniforms... hey I would love to have uniforms for us educators.... I prefer wind pants and school t-shirts... ahh but that is just a dream Seriously I wouldn't mind having uniforms for us!
Looked like a Barry Switzer airport security check.
I was thinking more along the lines of Sean Taylor....
