to me, bad news
wakin1984 said
to me, bad news
Sorry to hear…
Great news i think +stock drop 5% after hours, now all we need is a major hitch in a global scale level on one of there new product + add in addition global statement from there new CEO Tim Cook saying he will fallow Apple vision and will guide Apple base on his alien belief ….
Lets just hope that some of Mr Jobs choices are reversed It will be better for competition ,and business as a whole.
Obviously, since it's Apple there will be a lot of mixed feelings in this thread.
All I hope is that the guys health issues turn out OK and he is able to enjoy some of that hard work. I hope we can all at least agree on that
It's worth noting he'll be staying on as Chairman of the Board, quite an influential position still. It comes as no surprise the stock will go through some turbulence as unease hits the market. That's temporary and playing the Apple/PC stock game is a gamble anyone involved with knows about.
Personally, I think we'll still see Apple head the same direction with the same ideals. For me, that's a good thing, but as I said, your opinions and mileage may vary
^^ What he said with the exception of apple continuing to do business as usual ;p
Not going to change Flash's current position. All finished enough!
I'm pretty sure that with his legacy, Apple will continue to go from strength to strength, and us users of both the 'PC' and the 'Mac', will continue to benefit. Competition is always good

The City Tree arrived in 2007, garnering radio play from markets throughout the U.S. as well as a warm endorsement from Chicago-based music critic Jim DeRogatis. Meanwhile, a song from the band's previous record, Succession, I Guess, was used during an episode of The Real World, and Filligar eventually landed TV spots on additional networks. The band cracked the College Music Journal charts with the release of 2008's Near or Far and opened for the Black Keys the following year. The Nerve followed in 2010, spawning a headlining tour that included sold-out performances at venues in New York and L.A. ~ Andrew Leahey

Limitations on access to financing and persistent low confidence in housing demand continue to impact the strength of the residential new construction market, despite some improvements in August. According to NAHB chief economist David Crowe, August's construction activity returned to levels experienced prior to the implementation of the new home buyer tax credit, and focus has shifted from single-family to multifamily production.
August's "New Residential Construction Report," released by the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, showed overall improvements in housing permits, starts, and completions, but the majority of the gains were on the multifamily side.
Permits for privately owned units rose to 1.8 percent in August to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 569,000, mostly due to an 11.9 percent jump—to a rate of 150,000—in permits for residences in buildings of five or more units. Single-family authorizations slid by 1.2 percent, echoing July's rate of decline. Reflecting continued uncertainty and weakness in housing markets, August's rate for overall permits was 6.7 percent below the August 2009 rate of 610,000.
Starts of privately owned housing units increased in August by 10.5 percent to a rate of 598,000, and while single-family housing starts registered a relatively healthy 4.3 percent gain, the start rate for buildings of five-plus units surged by a hefty 42.7 percent to 147,000
Completions of residences in buildings with five or more units also escalated in August, from 88,000 in July to 115,000—a 30.7 percent increase—while single-family completions increased only 1.3 percent. August's overall housing completions registered a 5.6 percent increase to a total rate of 603,000, but this is 23.7 percent below the rate for the same period last year.
"Consumer uncertainty about the economy, the poor job market, and the large number of foreclosed properties for sale continue to be a drag on housing," commented the NAHB's Crowe in a statement about the housing data. "However, favorable home buying conditions should help spur additional demand as the job market gradually improves later this year."
The latest Architecture Billings Index (ABI) released by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) reflects the current strength of the multifamily sector, which scored an ABI of 46.9 in August and ranked second behind the commercial/industrial segment. While still reporting a continued decline in demand for architecture, the ABI's August score of 48.2 marks the third straight month of incremental increases. The new projects inquiry score also increased in August to 54.6.
The AIA's chief economist, Kermit Baker, posits that project cancellations continue to hobble the construction industry's recovery across all sectors.

Other infrastructure damage
- Collapsed, broken, and subsided walls
- In the Port Hills, especially Lyttelton, moving land, collapsed cliffs, and rockfall caused severe damage to retaining walls. Some have collapsed, subsided, or just broken up in parts. Some have been weakened and need to be stabilised with temporary supports.
- Broken stopbanks
- Some stopbanks by the Avon River settled and cracked so that a spring tide could flood the land. Contaminated tidal water came onto roads through broken drainage pipes. Banks and pipes failed because the ground moved toward the river and settled in a lower position than it had been.
- Weakened stopbanks
- All stopbanks by the Avon River were at least weakened by the shaking. The stopbanks need to remain raised, firm, and uncracked to function effectively.
- More stopbanks needed
- We now need another 4 kilometres of stopbanks along the Avon River because the surrounding land is lower than before the earthquakes.

MEDRADO-FARIA, MARCILIA DE A.; ALMEIDA, JOSÉ WILSON R. DE; ZANETTA, DIRCE M.T. and GATTAS, GILKA J. F.. Nervous system cancer mortality in an industrialized area of Brazil 1980 - 1993. Arq. Neuro-Psiquiatr. [online]. 2000, vol.58, n.2B, pp.412-417. ISSN 0004-282X. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0004-282X2000000300003.
OBJECTIVES: The industrialization process and nervous system cancer (NSC) mortality in a urban region of Brazil. METHOD: From registries of the State System of Data Analysis Foundation (SEADE), 103 males deaths by NSC (ICD-9) in Baixada Santista (BS), from 1980 to 1993 were selected. Mortality ratios were calculated comparing the standardized mortality rate for ages over 10 years old (G1) and for the age group from 35 to 64 years old, in the industrialized and non-industrialized areas in three periods: 1980-1993, 1980-86, 1987-93. RESULTS: A statiscally significant high mortality was observed in the industrialized area, for ages over 10 in all periods and only from 1980 to 1993 for ages from 34 to 64. The highest mortality ratio occurred from 1980-86 for ages over 10 - 4.12 (CI 1.79-9.42). CONCLUSION: High mortality was probably related to the environmental and occupational exposure to many organic and inorganic chemical substances, considered carcinogenics, such as aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, organochlorinated, formaldehyde, nitrogenated compounds and heavy metals, found in the port and industrial complex. We discuss the importance of case-control studies in characterizing the association of these and other risk factors in the determination of NSC.

Just noticed that Envato's super cool OptionTree plugin went missing this morning from the Plugin Repository (well, buyers have been reporting it).
Anyone have any news on this? I suppose I can use my own copy and send it out to buyers till it's back up, but any idea of why this happened would be helpful as I've got a couple themes that use it by referring to the repository link. It's a lot easier/safer to just use the TGP plugin activation class than to bake it into themes… but if it's subject to sporadically being pulled down, I (and anyone else using the plugin) might want to reconsider just including a hard copyhttp://wp.envato.com/open-source-plugins/option-tree/
Anyways, I love the plugin and so does everyone else I've run into that uses it – here's to hoping it'll be back up quickly!
Maybe WP is just waiting for some OptionTree update?

Maybe WP is just waiting for some OptionTree update?
That's my guess – I remember something like this happening a few months ago and WP3 .3 did just release, so it wouldn't be unheard of for the plugin to go down for a few hours during an update. I figured a forum post might unearth some news though as there doesn't seem to be much mention of it elsewhere
I contacted Derek. I'll keep you guys posted.
I've been sending people to GitHub for now: https://github.com/valendesigns/option-tree

Nice idea Curt! I'll start doing to same if this goes past today – still no word from big D or Envato, but that's not such a big deal considering it hasn't been more than a handful of hours so far (heck, they're just making their morning coffee in Envatoland). For now I'm working directly with any buyers who can't access it, which seems to be working just fine… I'm just glad I wasn't taking the day off
It'd be a shame if they can't get it back up in the repo though, the auto-installation using the TGP plugin activation class upon theme activation was incredibly easy. I feel like I'm back in the stone ages now that I'm needing to tell people how to install the plugin the old fashioned way.
The SVN repository is still up http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/option-tree/
Derek (Valendesign) said they did this a month ago as well. He's working to get it fixed ASAP . Thanks for the heads up Brandon.

Happy to help! Thanks for the assist Ivor – it's testament to the quality of the plugin that it took something like a mere 5 minutes to irk people when it went down It's good to know it'll be back up soon though, I'll relay the message.
I notice it's still not up yet… any further info on what's going on here?

The Big Chair
Highway 109 & Main Street
The story began in 1922. It seems Thomasville had already gained a reputation as "The Chair Town" due to the fact that products of Thomasville Chair Company (now Thomasville Furniture Industries) were almost exclusively simple, sturdy, straight-back chairs. Somebody, no one knows for certain who, got the idea to erect a big chair to call attention to the town's chief industry.
Thomasville has actually had two big chairs. The first one was erected in September 1922, at almost the same spot occupied by the one standing today. It was made by Thomasville Chair Company and took enough lumber to build 100 ordinary chairs. The project kept 3 men working 10 hours a day for 1 week. When completed it stood 13 feet 6 inches tall. The seat was 6 feet by 5 feet 6 inches tall and covered in leather made from the hide of a Swiss steer.
After nearly 15 years of exposure, the local chair was scrapped in 1936. Thomasville, though, had by no means lost interest. In fact, shortly after the first chair was taken down, another larger, more ornate chair was considered. It was not until 1948; however, after the Chamber of Commerce was formed, that the restoration movement began. This time it was decided the chair was to be built to last forever.
Chamber Manager, Kenneth Hoyle, asked James Buford Harvey if he could build a concrete chair. Harvey, who also built the life-sized concrete lion which stands today opposite the big chair, said he would try. The Chamber interested several local businesses to help, including Thomasville Chair Company. Their dean of designers, Thomas W. Johnson designed a reproduction of the Duncan Phyfe armchair which stands today overlooking the Square downtown.
A steel skeleton was fashioned by Salem Steel Company of Winston-Salem. Harvey, working in the Thomasville Chair plant on Taylor Street, fabricated wire mesh to fit over the steel skeleton in proportions dictated by Johnson's plans. After that, Harvey labored for over six months coating the mesh a spoonful at a time with a mixture of cement and granite dust to a thickness of about a half-inch. The chair was then painted to make it appear that it was built with wood and to suggest the seat had been upholstered with a striped fabric.
Meanwhile, the Chamber, City and others came along with the base. The cornerstone was laid on January 9, 1951. A time-box embedded in the cornerstone included among other things, a Bible, photos, a safety razor, a prospectus for eliminating railroad grade crossings, a city directory, brochures, civic records, and a letter from Mayor Harry B. Finch.
When completed, the new Big Chair of Thomasville stood 30 feet high from the bottom of the 12-foot base to the top of the 18- foot chair. The seat was 10-1/2 feet wide. In 1960, The Thomasville Chair gained national attention when vice-presidential hopeful Lyndon B. Johnson stopped to greet local supporters from atop the chair while on a campaign whistle stop. The Big Chair has since hosted governors, university presidents, mayors, beauty queens, and even an evangelist. It has also been listed in Ripley's Believe It or Not.
Today, the Big Chair of Thomasville is still a focal point for tourists as well as local citizens; and, continues to call attention to our city's chief industry. While other communities have seen bigger chairs come and go, Thomasville still boasts the remaining "WORLD'S LARGEST CHAIR!"

In the State Senate, Maggie backed some bills that provided a limited and highly regulated expansion of gambling because she believed that the benefits of allowing gambling in those circumstances outweighed the harms. Maggie continues to be open to the possibility that bringing one or possibly two well regulated, high-end casinos to the Granite state could help our state create jobs, capture revenue that would otherwise be spent in other states, and therefore help us fund education and other essential state services that are currently not being funded adequately. But any decision on expanded gambling must consider other factors as well--first, the impact that the siting and operation of a casino will have on the host community as well as abutting communities; our ability to treat the potential social impacts expanded gambling could have on some of our citizens; and of course the impact that casino approvals in Massachusetts will have on the New England market.

Going out in good spirits with a group of friends for her birthday, Vanessa Lachey celebrated her 33rd by grabbing breakfast at a bagel shop in Encino, CA.
The "Dads" babe was dressed down on Saturday (November 9), but looking good in a tan sweater, torn blue jeans and designer high-top shoes. She was all smiles as she and her friends went on their merry way.
Taking baby Camden along with her, Vanessa Minnillo Lachey left her hotel in New York City on Wednesday (September 18).
The 32-year-old wife of Nick Lachey looked cute in a red and black plaid shirt, blue jeans, and black ankle boots as she loaded her luggage and little boy into an awaiting vehicle.
Making the most of a Monday evening, some of Hollywood's hottest celebrities were in the house for the FOX Fall Eco-Casino Party in Santa Monica last night (September 9).
"New Girl" starlet Zooey Deschanel showed up at The Bungalow looking gorgeous in a sleeveless white vintage dress.
It's always fun to gather a bunch of celebrities together for a snazzy soiree, and last night (August 1) the FOX All-Star Party was the place to be.
"New Girl" stars Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield, and Lamorne Morris all came out for the affair, having a blast as they posed for photos.
She's been having a blast as a new mom over the past eleven months, and Vanessa Minnillo Lachey says she wouldn't mind having more kiddos in the future.
The former MTV veejay, who gave birth to her son Camden John back in September 2012, told press that she and husband Nick Lachey will continue to grow their family.
Striking some playful poses, Vanessa Lachey attended the P&G "Everyday Effect" campaign in New York City on Wednesday (June 19).
The former Miss Teen USA looked gorgeous in a yellow patterned blouse, knee-length navy blue skirt, and nude heels as she posed with the Charmin bear, a furry pooch, and in a little cart with football star Hakeem Nicks.
Taking a family trip out away from L.A., Nick Lachey, Vanessa Minnillo, and their son arrived at LAX Airport on Thursday (April 25).
The former "Wipeout" host was dressed casually in a white top, blue jeans, and white sandals as she pushed baby Camden's stroller behind her hunky hubby.
They both celebrated the Easter holiday for the first time as moms, and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Vanessa Minnillo Lachey each shared their baby love via social networking over the weekend.
The "Jersey Shore" starlet couldn't have been more thrilled as she enjoyed the festive occasion with her 7-month-old bundle of joy Lorenzo.

STOMPer Sally was shocked when she found online photos of her former maid posing in her clothes. The photos were taken in her house while she was out working.
Said the STOMPer:
"I've attached photos of my previous maid who has been sent back to the Philippines due to her pregnancy last month.
"By God's will, I chanced upon these photos, taken in my house, my room and on my bed, of her wearing my clothes as well as our belongings.
"She wanted to come back to work for us after giving birth, but I told her I needed to do some checks first, and when I went to her Facebook account, I saw all these photos of her in my clothes!
"I hope to share with employers of maids here. We never know what they are doing in our house when we are out slogging for a living."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/8/2014 (1045 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
It's hard to see why doctors give Desmond Snyman 12 months to live. Aside from his light blue cane with a polished handle he jokingly wishes hid a sword, he appears calm, happy and healthy.
His eyes are bright and his smiles are frequent.
"I'm not a number," the 34- year-old said in his slight South African accent, which has faded since moving to Canada 10 years ago. "I'm still really young and strong. And just because that's what they say, it doesn't mean it's going to happen."
Snyman was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2009. He went through surgery, 10 months of chemotherapy and was back to normal and back to his job as the area director for Youth for Christ's U-Turn program.
He enjoyed several years of remission with his wife and three kids — two sons, Sebastian, 5, who was born shortly after his procedure and Tobias, 7, along with his two-year-old daughter Sarika, who Snyman describes as a "miracle" baby after he and his wife Rebecca were told they wouldn't be able to have any more children.
In April 2013, the cancer returned. It came back fast and strong. The cells reappeared and took hold of his lungs and one of his hip bones.
He had some 40 tumours on his lungs — doctors gave him two years, but he's determined to give himself as much of a chance to live as possible.
That's why Snyman will be travelling to Mexico in September to get alternative treatment for his cancer, treatment that he said works with the conventional procedures he's getting here in Brandon.
This will be the second time travelling to the clinic after he and his wife raised the $40,000 he needed for a trip last summer through the online fundraising website Youcaring.com.
During his first visit, his treatment included injections of mistletoe, high dose vitamins, antioxidants and "natural" versions of chemotherapy, which Snyman is convinced are less toxic to his body and the reactions are far less severe.
He feels like it gives him a break from the war conventional chemo wages on his body.
Sanoviv Medical Institute, about 40 kilometres south of Tijuana, Mexico, looks more like a resort hotel from the outside. It's a tall pearl white building surrounded by palm trees on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. But Snyman said once he stepped inside, there was no doubt it's a hospital.
The facility has all the same cast of cancer treatment characters as home, including an oncologists, cancer specialists, physiotherapists and chiropractors and it only takes in about 20 cancer patients at a time.
The clinic describes itself as being "committed to treating you as a whole being," according to its website, "focusing on your biochemical individuality and underlying factors causing your health issues."
Snyman was, understandably, skeptical at first and remained so even until a clinic representative picked him up at the airport for his first visit. There was a nagging thought in the back of his mind it may have been all a scam.
Money is now being raised for a second — and hopefully last — trip in September for a three-week stint which will target the cancerous DNA directly instead of just the tumours.
When he told his doctors here at home about his plan to fly to Mexico to get treatment last year, reactions ran the gambit. Some were ambivalent, some were on the fence, and one thought it was downright stupid, telling Snyman if he could stop him, he would.
"Coming back with the results that I had, it's hard to argue with that," he said. "I never expected them to encourage me to do it and that's fine.
"I felt amazing coming back. I felt like there was nothing wrong with me."
Snyman is part of the less than one per cent of Manitoba hospital patients receiving treatment outside of Canada last year, according to a wait-time report by the Fraser Institute, but that number has been rising, albeit slightly.
CancerCare Manitoba president and CEO Dr. Sri Navaratnam said it's not uncommon for people facing terminal cancer to take seemingly drastic measures, like the one Snyman has elected to take.
"It is very understandable," she said. "A number of people seek alternative medicine."
CancerCare highlights the need for cancer patients to keep their doctors at home abreast of any medicine they may want to take to eliminate any potential unwanted interactions with treatments.
Navaratnam also insisted Canada's health-care system is "constantly" looking at new forms of treatment within the medical community — treatments which are vetted by national and provincial medical panels.
"We reach out for the best treatment possible," she said.
"What worries me sometimes is there's lots of claims made on alternative medicine ... and some people lose all their savings on these."
The term "alternative medicine" is a seemingly catch-all term with a wide spectrum. Yoga, for instance, is considered to be a form of alternative treatment for illness.
"The one thing to keep in mind is oncologists want to do the best they can and to get whatever is available," Navaratnam said.
Ultimately, however, it's up to the patient how they wish to fight.
Snyman has confidence in the team of doctors here. Doubling down on the Mexican clinic is to "sucker punch" the cancer, he said.
"It's like putting (nitrous oxide) in a car, it just gives me that boost."
He made an "idiotic" deal with God, he said, to do whatever it takes to survive long enough to walk his daughter down the aisle and watch his boys get married — even if it means rolling in a wheelchair.

Preparing to leave for Mexico in September, online fundraising for Snyman's cross-continent cancer care is strong and many of the donations are anonymous.
The campaign on Youcaring.com — this time started by family friends Ben and Laurel Loewen — has raised more than $16,000 of the $25,000 needed for the second trip.
"It blew me away how quickly a community can rally together if they have a reason to do it," he said.

Can Microsoft Stomp Google in Email, Search, and More?
Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) may be chipping away at Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) user base with its services, which are now competing more directly with Google's.
While Google may tout its massive email service, which, by its own measure and the measure of comScore, has surpassed all others to become the world's biggest email supplier, Microsoft may be able to take that position away with its new Outlook.com site.
Microsoft's Hotmail email service used to be, and for the moment could still be considered, one of the most popular email clients. Despite this, Hotmail didn't receive quite the same attention from Microsoft as Gmail did from Google. In its neglected state, Hotmail still ranked third among email clients, topped only by Gmail and Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO). In December, comScore showed Gmail having 306 million users, Yahoo with 293 million, and Hotmail with 267 million.
So, Microsoft still had a little ways to go to catch up with the competitors. Lucky for it, the new Outlook.com saw 60 million users sign up during its preview period, with a third of them also being Gmail users. From now until summer, Microsoft will be moving over its Hotmail users to Outlook, and could overtake Gmail in doing so.
With the numbers rising for Microsoft's Outlook, other connected and related services may also see a rise, like its Bing search — which had a 16.5 percent share of searches in December, compared to Google's 67 percent — or Sky Drive. These services would stand in direct competition to those offered by Google, and a strong user base could tip the scales. It may even help boost the popularity of Microsoft's mobile devices.

Pan Pharmaceuticals is being wound up only because of a "grossly unfair" rejection of a last-minute attempt to match the voting power of 357 pharmacists at a creditors meeting on September 23, the Supreme Court heard yesterday.
Pan went into liquidation after the meeting voted down a revival plan proposed by its founder Jim Selim and entrepreneur Fred Bart.
Lawyers for Mr Selim argued yesterday that, "as a matter of theoretical law", the chemists who gave their proxies to Pharmacy Guild of Australia could have genuine claims against Pan arising from the April recall of all its products by the Therapeutic Goods Administration.
But, Robert Newlinds SC said, 365 proxies from consumers collected by Mr Bart to "counter-swamp" the pharmacists, who had shown their hand before the meeting was adjourned on September 1, were just as valid.
Mr Selim wants Justice Reg Barrett to order the revival plan to proceed or, failing that, to change the voting power and reconvene the meeting.
The decision by the chairman of the meeting, KPMG partner Tony McGrath, to reject the consumers' proxies because they gave too few details about the basis for the claims "must have been wrong because it's unfair and arbitrary and, most importantly, wholly inconsistent with the approach he took to the particulars he required from the Pharmacy Guild people," Mr Newlinds said.
Under cross-examination, Mr McGrath, until September 23 Pan's administrator and now its liquidator, agreed that the pharmacy voting forms did not contain details of the type of product purchased, nor any confirmation they came from Pan's factory.
However, he said he had "a degree of confidence" that the pharmacists would hold the records to back up their claims.
"The Pharmacy Guild members were administering the product recall at the consumer level and received directions from the TGA as to how to administer it," Mr McGrath said.
"There's a distinction between that and consumers who say that they held a product for which they want a refund. I believe they should establish that they held a product."
Earlier, a consultant to Mr Bart, Anthony Schildkraut, denied that he hoped to gain a strategic advantage by not registering the new voters until 45 minutes before the meeting.
Mr Schildkraut said he had specifically sought confirmation from KPMG that proxies could be lodged at any time until the meeting began.
When counsel for Mr McGrath, John Sheahan, SC, suggested the best prospect of having the proofs accepted was to lodge them with enough time for his client to make any further inquiries needed, Mr Schildkraut said: "I had no intention of specifically submitting the proxies late."

This wheat-and-herb-filled bag is adorable, and great for adults or children. Heat in the microwave, and you'll have a long lasting source of warmth. This a lot nicer to curl up with than a hot water bottle. Good to sooth aches, or just to warm the bed in winter.

Center for Tobacco Treatment Research and Training
The Center for Tobacco Treatment Research and Training has a long-standing history of conducting cutting-edge tobacco treatment and control research in health care and community settings. Since its establishment in 1997 the Center Director, Research Program Director and staff have conducted research studies that have designed and investigated the effectiveness of behavioral interventions for the prevention and treatment of nicotine dependence in adolescents and pregnant smokers, policies affecting community-based tobacco treatment programs, and pharmacological treatments for adult populations. In addition, the Center Director has served as consultant on studies conducted by colleagues across the country.
A particular area of expertise for the Center researchers is adolescent nicotine dependence treatment. In one National Cancer Institute/NIH-funded trial of over 2700 adolescents we designed and evaluated a pediatric practice-based smoking prevention and cessation intervention consisting of provider advice and peer counseling by a college-aged ex-smoker. This intervention was found to be effective in preventing the initiation of smoking and in helping adolescent smokers quit in the short term (Pbert L, Flint AJ, Fletcher KE, Young MH, Druker S, DiFranza, J. Effect of a Pediatric Practice-Based Smoking Prevention and Cessation Intervention for Adolescents: A Randomized Controlled Trial. Pediatrics 2008;121(4):e738-e747). In a series of trials we have been collaborating with the School Health Unit of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH), led by Anne Sheetz and Diane Gorak, to design and test a school nurse-delivered one-on-one intervention to assist adolescent smokers interested in quitting. In a pilot randomized controlled trial in 71 high schools with over 1000 adolescent smokers the intervention was found to significantly increase self-reported abstinence rates (Pbert L, Osganian V, Gorak D, Druker S, Reed G, O'Neil K, Sheetz A. A school-nurse delivered tobacco cessation intervention: A randomized controlled trial. Preventive Medicine 2006;43(4):312-320). Based on the promising results from this pilot study the Center received a grant from the National Cancer Institute of the NIH to even more rigorously evaluate the intervention (R01 CA114556), which is currently ongoing.
Future research plans for the Center include collaborating with the School Health Unit of the MDPH to evaluate different ways to disseminate the school nurse-delivered smoking cessation intervention nationwide if it is found effective in the current NIH-funded trial.

He was also tough as nails. He had more physically wrong with him then you can imagine in the last years of his life--blind, diabetic, with cancer of the prostate, gallbladder and liver, COPD, skin cancer, crippling peripheral neuropathy, and a heart that had withstood several heart attacks. You name it, and Dad had it; but he refused to give in and rarely, if ever, complained of the many ills that ailed his body. His mind, however, was a different story: there, he never lost a step. We will never again see a mind quite like Dowds. His infinite memory, his profound knowledge and his unique humor made him the bright, appealing and easy to love man that he was. Dad had the ability, when socializing, to digest and remember forever everything that was happening. He was instantly able to measure people and often found humor in his interactions. With his quick wit he would further endear himself or disarm a situation.
Dads story was one about the relationships carved out of combat training, combat, and his experiences as a prisoner of war. His writings described how 18-20 year old boys became men together as comrades in arms. They described the feelings and fears bred in battle. To Dowd, writing these stories was about defining a brotherhood, and the men who became the siblings he never had.
The book he is most well known for is Snetterton Falcons: The 96th bomb group in World War 2 by Robert Doherty and Geoffrey Ward. He also won the Telly Award for history as an associate producer of Behind the Wire which was a documentary about POW life in Germany.
Dads absorbent mind and his lyric pen saved his story for us all. His deepest thoughts and most impressionable experiences are immortalized in histories and verse. Dowd was quick to point out that he was just one of many. He was part of the Greatest Generation. But to us he was our part. He was our one, our most beloved.

Hold Team Meetings . Monitor and Evaluate Your Efforts . Sustain Your SART . Know Your Team . Critical Issues
Identify Opportunities for Collaboration
Integrate Community Services
The long-term sustainability of your SART rests on your ability to build on the unique strengths and assets of people, institutions, and organizations within the region. In preparing for a sustained multidisciplinary response to sexual violence, consider the following questions:
- Does a SART model fit into the community's other collaborative and multidisciplinary efforts for crime victims?
- Is there organizational support through domestic violence task forces, child abuse response teams, or elder abuse task forces?
- What are the commonalities, differences, and respective roles among other coordinated community teams in the jurisdiction?
The Wisconsin Coalition Against Sexual Assault works with communities that have one coordinated team for both domestic violence and sexual assault response. Having teams address both these crimes helps stretch their resources, but it can also be challenging to address both issues during single, coordinated team meetings.
Other SARTs have integrated their team meetings with child advocacy centers (CACs). According to the National Children's Advocacy Center, "a CAC is a child-focused, community-oriented, facility-based program in which representatives from many disciplines meet to discuss and make decisions about investigation, treatment, and prosecution of child abuse cases. They also work to prevent further victimization." In Fairbanks, Alaska, for example, the CAC meets monthly and the SART meets quarterly. Each team attends the other team's meetings. On the other hand, in Kotzebue, Alaska, the CAC and SART meetings are combined. Kotzebue is a remote region that is small in population (under 10,000) but large in size (about the size of Indiana). By combining CAC and SART meetings, Kotzebue gets the largest turnout from its first responders.
Another way to integrate services is through family justice centers. The Office on Violence Against Women's Family Justice Center Initiative started in 2003. Its goal is to make a victim's search for help and justice more effective by bringing professionals who provide an array of services together under one roof. (The Ann Patterson Dooley Family Safety Center in Oklahoma is one example of a family justice center.)

The gathering of signatures to place initiatives on the November ballot is no new phenomenon in Montana, but the private, out-of-state companies under contract to hire and organize petitioners for these campaigns are, and recent reports raise questions about their methods. Missoula is crowded with petitioners for local and state initiatives—including three statewide efforts to limit government power sponsored by the nonprofit group Montanans in Action.
Winifred rancher Trevis Butcher, campaign coordinator for CI-97; which would cap state spending; CI-98, allowing judicial recall by petition; and I-154, weakening the state's eminent domain powers, says the initiatives are designed to "allow citizens to direct their own government." The petitioner who approached me with a request to "steal a couple of signatures" expressed little passion for democratic action, however. "This is just a temp job until Monday" he said, "I don't really want to get into talking about the issues in-depth." Instead, he was eager to discuss the angsty hand-written poetry he was simultaneously hawking.
So who's paying the would-be poet the dollar he says he's getting for every valid signature? National Voter Outreach, an organization circulating petitions in 20 states, is under contract to coordinate Montanans in Action's signature-gathering in Missoula, says Lorianne Kaserman, a manager for NVO. Kaserman says she's "on loan" to train paid workers and "supplement them with people in the business."
Educator's union MEA-MFT is organizing to prevent CI-97 from reaching the ballot. Communications director Sanna Porte is critical of the signatures-by-contract method: "The state is basically under siege by a small army of out-of-state mercenary signature gatherers," says Porte. "This is the first time we've seen it in Montana. It's pretty new and pretty weird." Porte says she's "concerned that Montanans don't know what they're signing."
Recent inquiries to political practices commissioner Gordy Higgins about the legality of some petitioners' strategies suggest that such concerns may be founded. According to Higgins, one woman who contacted him felt "duped" by a petitioner who claimed that all three petitions were copies, requiring signatures, of the topmost eminent domain petition.
"We have to put our heads together and decide how to address this," Higgins says. "The gatherer has to be able to swear that the person knew what they were signing, and if they can't, it's our responsibility to file a complaint."

Arsène Wenger is hoping that Abou Diaby recovers from his calf injury in time to rejoin the Arsenal squad for Sunday's crucial trip to Chelsea.
The midfielder has been sidelined since the 4-2 victory over Bolton on January 20 but is now nearing fitness. Admittedly, Diaby has yet to return to full training however, and speaking on Thursday, his manager described the Frenchman's inclusion as "a maybe" and added any decision would only be made on the eve of the game.
Elsewhere, Sol Campbell is available after a minor groin strain but Eduardo is definitely out. The Croatian is yet to recover from the hamstring injury he collected at Aston Villa on January 27. Carlos Vela (knee) is still missing too.
"Diaby is not yet back in normal training," Wenger told TV Online. "He progresses very well but we will still have to wait until Saturday. He is a maybe. Campbell is back in squad, Eduardo is already ruled out.
"We still have Carlos Vela out too. Apart from that [there are no more changes from last Sunday]. Theo is back and available. Diaby is the question mark we have. All the others are longer term injuries."
Speaking of which, Wenger also gave an update on the progress of Johan Djourou (knee) and Robin van Persie (foot).
"It is still two months for Johan," he said. "We have to be patient with him. He is working well and progressing well. But he is not an immediate resource.
"For Robin, the rehabilitation is going well but anything before April would be a little bit premature."
TV Online subscribers can see the full interview on Friday morning. In it Wenger talks about:
- the challenge at Chelsea this Sunday
- the points they dropped at Hull in midweek
- the effect of the Africa Cup of Nations on both sides
- the win at Stamford Bridge last season
- the differences between the two sides this season
- the closure of the transfer window
- the defeat to Man United
- being caught by breakaway goals

There's a thumb indent and small silver thumb-button on each side of this symmetrical peripheral so it's perfectly ambidextrous - although that's a common enough feature among mice. However, thanks to its curved back it also lies in the hand more comfortably than the V550 Nano, giving better support for your palm as you grip the sides of the mouse.
On the other hand, its thin Teflon feet make using it on a cloth pad awkward, as you can feel the Mobile 6000's bottom scraping across the textile. However, given the BlueTrack technology means it can be used on more or less any surface - be it carpet or wood - it's something of a non-issue unless you absolutely must use a mouse mat, in which case you probably don't need BlueTrack or a portable mouse.
Perhaps the biggest dissapointment with the Mobile Mouse 6000 is its scroll wheel. While the four-way wheel lies comfortably enough under the finger and is finished in the same soft-touch material as the mouse's sides, its slow, non-notched action simply doesn't match up to the broad, ribbed wheels on Logitech's mice. This is especially true of those that offer the company's truly revolutionary Hyper Scrolling, which can switch between notched and 'free-wheel' modes depending on circumstances.
Finally on the hardware front, it's worth mentioning a small green battery indicator easily visible below the scroll wheel so that you'll never be caught by surprise.
Software is, as one would hope from the makers of Windows, excellent. IntelliPoint lets you adjust what any of the mouse's buttons do with a dynamic visual representation showing you their location. In a surprisingly open move, there's even a tab for Logitech's SetPoint Settings if you have any of the rival manufacturer's peripherals installed.
Essentially then, with Microsoft's Wireless Mobile Mouse 6000 it's a case of weighing up what you need and how much you're willing to spend to get it. If you require a mouse that will work on almost any surface, there simply is no 'ordinary' desktop mouse alternative to Microsoft's amazing BlueTrack technology.
Nor do you pay too much of a premium for it, since at £29 the Mobile 6000 is very reasonably priced. Its most direct competitor, Logitech's V550 Nano, costs around same and though its laser sensor can't cope with the variety of surfaces Microsoft's rodent can, its reassuring weight gives it a better balance and its scroll action is on a whole other level. There's also the Nano VX to consider, which at around £6 extra is arguably more refined than either.
Microsoft's BlueTrack techonology is well utilised in a portable mouse such as this, ensuring it will work on pretty much any surface. This is also a reasonably priced effort and though it lacks the excellent scrolls wheels found on Logitech's efforts, if you're on the move BlueTrack gives it a definite edge.

Holland stays on with the Red Wings
Ken Holland is staying on through the 2017-18 season with the Red Wings under the terms of a new four-year deal, the team said Thursday.
The 58-year-old Holland served as the Red Wing's general manager for the past 17 seasons. Team owner Mike Ilitch said the new four-year deal is a testament to Holland's success.
"Ken is regarded as one of the premier executives in the National Hockey League and has been instrumental in the success of the Red Wings over the last two decades," he said in a statement.
Holland has lead the Red Wings to 746 regular season and 115 post-season victories since taking the helm in 1997, more than any other NHL team.
Holland was involved with the coaching staff for Stanley Cup championships in Detroit.

Rooms aging a little, but very comfortable and particularly helpful staff.
Nice hotel, large room. Noisy because it's on a Main Street. Minimal breakfast, not good! Price of hotel reasonable.
Chateau Monfort is boutique hotel in the best sense. It has unique features like a small but inviting check-in desk with very helpful staff.

ATM Forests Support Paper-Free Transactions [Pics]
TD bank plants a tree for every paper-free transaction carried out at an "A-Tree-M"
In an effort to raise awareness of its TD Forests program, TD Bank partnered with MillionTreesNYC and New York Restoration Project to transform four of its ATMs into "A-Tree-Ms." The bank's initiative means that for every paperless and envelop-free transaction carried out at an "A-Tree-M," TD Bank will plant one tree per customer in New York, up to 15,000 trees. In addition to the environmental impact, customers get to immerse themselves in a lush forest every time they want to withdraw some money or carry out a transaction.
The idea was inspired by TD becoming the first North American carbon neutral bank in 2010, the TD Forests program was created to embed an environmental perspective across all aspects of TD's business. As part of the program, TD is protecting and conserving forests across the country, including New York State. By 2015, TD has the goal to reduce paper consumption by 20 percent and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by one metric ton per employee.
If you were interested in seeing one of the ATMs for yourself before November 15th, here's a list of where you can find them:
- 125th St. and 8th Ave. in Harlem
- Ditmars Blvd. and 32nd St. in Queens
- 14th St. and 5th Ave. in Manhattan
- 36th St. and 7th Ave. in Manhattan
For those who can't get down to one of the ATMs, you can imagine you were there by looking through the gallery below:

I notice that the existing glass has a metal frame around it. Is this necessary? From what I've read, it was added in 41 to cut down on broken glass due to channel wear. Can I just go back in with thicker glass with no metal frame?
Yes, the door top will need to be stretched.
So do you regret not having the hinged frame on your windshield? I figure it's going to be $300+ to source and modify a frame (and find the crank components). I need to find out from my son how important that hinged windshield is. We plan on doing a rag-top on this cab, so we should have plenty of air coming in that way to make up for the wind/bugs coming in through the windshield.
I was going to say you don't need the metal, but I think you will find it would be better with a cloth top. As far as the channel goes let your glass shop put those in, for the windows that crank up, you need a different channel than if you used power windows. The regulators should not have to be changed as you roll them up as far as they will go.

"Earlier, I was very brash but after taking over the captaincy I have mellowed down a lot and am more focussed," Ponting said. "I have adjusted well into it (captaincy) and I am quite comfortable leading the side now. In fact, I am maturing with time and leading a side full of talented men has made me more responsible," he said.
Looking ahead to Australia's battle against India, in the tri-series also involving New Zealand, Ponting said India at home were a good side who cannot be taken lightly.In a brief chat with reporters during a photo-shoot, Ponting said, "India is a competitive side with a strong batting line-up and there is no way we will take them lightly. We have to be well prepared for all eventualities." "In order to prepare ourselves well, we are having two camps at home one before the Zimbabweans' visit and the other soon after it," Ponting added.

its not fair, thor finally got his heartworm treatments , now he doesn't have to go back for three weeks, but boy is he getting spoiled. he is eating the good food out of a can because his throat is sore. and mom keeps giving him my favorite canine carryouts. i only get two, he gets as many as he wants. it must be fun being sick. he gets to lay on the couch, with dirty feet and everything. me and hercules just watch from the gate in the kitchen, this sucks. i want thor to feel better cause i love him , but mostly because i want treats too! gotta go mom has the treats out . bye bye ellie may
hey everyone , its me ellie may, i decided to start a diary since my brother thor did. things have been okay for me lately, but it is hot. i DONT LIKE HOT WEATHER!! i like the snow !! it is way too hot here for me to stay outside and play . mom is going to go and get me a new baby pool to lay around in when i am outside, but i have to share it with thor and hercules. that sucks. i like having everything for myself. i dont like to share. i guess i have to. thor has been really sick lately. he hasnt got to chase me around the yard , i have had to play with hercules, he doesnt play fair, he just holds on to my tail and i cant reach him, it is really frustrating for me. i love him , but he is like a bug in my ear. thor gets his heartworm treatment this thursday, boy will he get spoiled by mom after that. she always spoils us when we are sick. he will be really sick for about a month after his treatment. that is when his body is getting rid of the heartworms. hercules and i tested negative for heartworm, mom and dad were so happy. they thought they were gonna have to remorgage the house to treat us all. it is very costly. they don't care though. they love us very much. mom feels really guilty because thor has the heartworms, she gave us heartworm medicine every month, but she bought it online and the vet says that may be the reason why thors didnt work for him. now we get our medicine from the vet. it just costs a little more. i cant wait for thor to get better. i gotta go for now, my kids are gonna walk me through the neighborhood so i can sniff everything. bye bye for now ellie

1. My high school classmate and next-door neighbor, Jeremy Wright, who served in the military and lost his life in Afghanistan when his vehicle encountered an IED. He is the best athlete I have ever known – by far the best runner I have ever seen. He is only athlete to have an individual photo placed on the wall of athletic achievements at our high school.
2. My great uncle, Paul A. Barmann, who was killed in action during WW II. He was married to my great aunt, Aunt La, for only one year when he lost his life.
3. My great uncle, Uncle Bud, who was in Pearl Harbor when his ship was attacked as part of the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941.
4. The Indy 500 which takes place every single Sunday before Memorial Day (unless it rains!). Most race days would entail us going to church, going to KFC for a bucket of chicken, and then going to the park to listen to the 500 on the radio. Awesome memories for a boy from central Indiana!
5. My twin brother, John, who served in the US Army and completed a tour through Korea and my fourth brother, Keith, who also served in the US Army.
6. How awesome my country is! I can pursue my God-given dreams! So can you!
7. How awesome family is! I have a great family. We are as disfunctional as your family and have a blast every time we get together!

A/N: New story! Yay! This came to me while I was drinking green tea. Story ideas tend to attack me in the weirdest moments. Read and review, you'll make me happy! I got the name Ryder from Writer With No Words, thanks!
The knife pierced the wooden target and Rayne smiled. Bulls eye. Just as she pulled out another knife, she heard her mother calling. "Rayne! Rayne! Where are you?"
Rayne groaned and pulled the knife out of the target before tucking it into her belt with it's twin. She jumped over the white picket fence and jogged to the neat two story house. Jennifer stood at the front door with her arms crossed and a deep frown on her face. "Your brother is already at the center and you're still here. What were you doing?"
Rayne resisted the urge to say something sarcastic and instead mumbled. "Practicing."
"How many times have I told you to stop throwing those ridiculous things around? What if you cut yourself?" Jennifer glared at Rayne and she rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, Mom! I've been practicing since I was five! I'm not going to cut myself!"
"As you keep telling me! If you cut off your arm, then don't come crying to me." She walked back into the house and Rayne groaned again before following her. They entered her room and Jennifer handed her a light blue dress. "Wear this and brush out your hair. I expect you to be ready in five minutes."
"Roger that." Rayne said and walked into the bathroom. She hated reaping day. It made her sick to think that she was getting all prettied up to attend a gathering where two innocent teenagers would be chosen to kill other innocent teenagers. She pulled on the dress after a two second shower and ran the brush through her dark brown hair a few times. She refused to acknowledge the dark circles under her eyes which were the result of her nightmares. She hopped down the stairs and entered the kitchen. "Mom, I'm ready."
Jennifer nodded slightly before fiddling with the ribbon Rayne had tied on her hair. "If you hadn't wasted your time with those stupid knives then maybe you could have learned how to tie a ribbon properly." Jennifer mumbled.
Rayne didn't answer as Jennifer pulled on the ribbon, tightening it around her brown locks. She finally let out a satisfied sigh and stepped back. "There, that's much better. Now smile, you don't want to look like an old granny."
Rayne gave her a fake million-watt smile and she nodded. "Now get going or you'll be late and make sure you keep an eye on Ryder. That boy is always up to something."
Jennifer pushed Rayne towards the door and she raced down the front porch stairs and out the low gate. As she ran down the sidewalk, she waved to the other people standing at their doorsteps. None of them had children young enough to be reaped and most of them didn't have any children at all. A billboard appeared with the words "Welcome to Victors' Village" written on it. Rayne ran past it while keeping one hand on her bangs to keep them from flying into her eyes. She ran past the sea which invited her closer and arrived at the Justice Center where she was identified and then sent to stand in the row where every girl, aged seventeen, stood. Rayne saw her best friend, Brooke, standing two girls away but she was too busy biting her nails. Ryder stood silently in his row, frowning. Rayne caught his eye and gave him a questioning look. Ryder shook his head and turned away. The escort, Follene, cat walked onto the stage and smiled brightly at the crowd in front of her. And then she began her usual speech. Rayne closed her eyes and shifted impatiently from one foot to the other. Finally, the speech and the movie ended and Follene dipped her hand into the glass sphere. She pulled out a slip of paper and smiled again while unfolding it.
"Rayne Daterbee."
God, the world is not on my side today. Rayne opened her eyes and let her mouth fall open in shock. Out of three thousand girls, she had been reaped. Three thousand. Follene called her name again and Brooke gasped, as if just realizing that her best friend's life was on the line. Rayne took a deep breath and began walking to the stage and then up the stairs. She tried keeping her face blank. Follene grinned at her. "Oh there she is." She said in her squeaky voice. Rayne glared at her and Follene turned to the other glass sphere. "And our male tribute is... Ryder Daterbee!"
The world was definitely not on her side today. Ryder managed to keep his mouth shut and he kept his face blank too. He walked up the stairs, accepting reality faster then Rayne had. His hand clamped around Rayne's and he avoided looking directly into her eyes. They were led into the Justice Building and then into separate rooms. Rayne scowled at the Peacekeepers who closed the door to the visiting room. Only one thought occupied her mind.
I just got reaped with my twin, what are the chances of that?

Also, if she follows you on Twitter, never retweet any praise

Alice told him to stop it).
