Aortic aneurysm repair - endovascularEVAR; Endovascular aneurysm repair - aorta; AAA repair - endovascular; Repair - aortic aneurysm - endovascular
Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is surgery to repair a widened area in your aorta, called an aneurysm. The aorta is the large artery that carries blood to your belly, pelvis, and legs.
An aortic aneurysm is when a part of this artery becomes too large or balloons outward due to weakness in the wall of the artery.
You will lie on a padded table in an operating room, in the radiology department of the hospital, or in a catheterization lab. You may receive general anesthesia (you are asleep and pain-free) or epidural or spinal anesthesia.
- Your doctor will make a small surgical cut near the groin, to find the femoral artery. Then your doctor will insert a stent (a metal coil) and a manmade (synthetic) graft through the cut into the artery.
- The doctor uses x-rays to guide the stent graft up into your aorta, to where the aneurysm is located. The doctor will open the stent using a spring-like mechanism and attach it to the walls of the aorta. Your aneurysm will eventually shrink around it.
- The doctor will then use x-rays again to make sure the stent is in the right place and your aneurysm is not bleeding inside your body.
Why the Procedure Is Performed
Endovascular aortic repair is done because your aneurysm is very large, growing quickly, or is leaking or bleeding.
You may have an abdominal aortic aneurysm that is not causing any symptoms or problems. Your doctor may have found out about this problem when you had an ultrasound or CT scanfor another reason. There is a risk that this aneurysm may open up (rupture) if you do not have surgery to repair it. However, surgery to repair the aneurysm may also be risky. In such cases, endovascular repair is an option.
You and your doctor must decide whether the risk of having this surgery is smaller than the risk of rupture if you do not have surgery to repair the problem. The doctor is more likely to recommend that you have surgery if the aneurysm is:
- Larger (about 2 inches or 5 cm)
- Growing more quickly (a little less than 1/4 inch over the last 6 to 12 months)
Endovascular repair has a lower risk of complications compared to open surgery. Your doctor is more likely to suggest this type of repair if you have other, more serious medical problems or are elderly.
Risks for any surgery are:
- Blood clots in the legs that may travel to the lungs
- Breathing problems
- Infection, including in the lungs, urinary tract, and belly
- Heart attack or stroke
- Reactions to medicines
Risks for this surgery are:
- Bleeding around the graft that needs more surgery
- Bleeding before or after procedure
- Blockage of the stent
- Damage to a nerve, causing weakness, pain, or numbness in the leg
- Kidney failure
- Poor blood supply to your legs, your kidneys, or other organs
- Problems getting or keeping an erection
- Surgery is not successful and you need open surgery
- The stent slips
Before the Procedure
Your doctor will carefully examine you andordertests before you have surgery.
Always tell your doctor or nurse what drugs you are taking, even drugs, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription.
If you are a smoker, you should stop. Your doctor or nurse can help. Here are other things you will need to do before your surgery:
- About two weeks before your surgery, you will visit your doctor to make sure any medical problems, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart or lung problems, arewell treated.
- You also may be asked to stop taking drugs that make it harder for your blood to clot. These include aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), clopidogrel (Plavix), warfarin (Coumadin), andnaprosyn (Aleve, Naproxen).
- Ask your doctor which drugs you should still take on the day of your surgery.
- Always tell your doctor or nurse if you get a cold, flu, fever, herpes breakout, or other illness before your surgery.
The evening before your surgery:
- Do NOT drink anything after midnight, including water.
On the day of your surgery:
- Take any medicines your doctor told you to take with a small sip of water.
- Your doctor or nurse will tell you when to arrive at the hospital.
After the Procedure
Most people stay in the hospital for 3 to 5 days after this surgery, depending on the type of procedure they had. Compared to open surgery, you should recover more quickly, have less pain, and go home sooner.
During a hospital stay, you may:
- Be in the intensive care unit (ICU), where you will be watched very closely at first
- Have a urinary catheter
- Be given medicines to thin your blood
- Be encouraged to sit on the side of your bed and then walk
- Wear special stockings to prevent blood clots in your legs
- Receive pain medicine into your veins or into the space that surrounds your spinal cord (epidural)
Outlook (Prognosis)
Recovery after endovascular repair is usually fairly quick.
You will need to be watched carefully over time for signs or symptoms that your repaired aortic aneurysm is leaking blood.

(* Denotes Required Fields)
When Electric Companies Compete, You save.
MI electric rates provides an open platform for alternative energy suppliers to communicate with commercial and residential end users in deregulated electric markets.
New utility rules allow alternative electric companies to compete for your business. MI Electric rates is your single source for cheap electric prices in Michigan. We bring together the best electric suppliers in your state to bid on your commercial, industrial, or residential electric supply. If you currently buy your electric from Consumers Electric, American Electric, DTE, Upper Peninsula Power, Midwest Energy Coop, XCEL, Edison Sault Electric, Alpena Power Co., or Wisconsin Electric Power, than you have the power to choose your electric supplier and save money on electric. Deregulated electricity gives the customer the power to choose their electric supplier and save on energy.
Utility bills for electricity now include one total price for generation, transmission, and distribution. Deregulation means the generation portion of the electricity service will be open to competition. Your local utility company will remain responsible for providing maintenance, customer services, and billing for the transmission and distribution of your electric.
A long time monopoly system of electric utilities has been replaced with competing suppliers. When competition is present in any market place, the end user benefits. Deregulation of energy markets give our clients the opportunity to compare rates of suppliers, decide who is the best fit for their energy consumption needs, switch providers of their electric generation, and most importantly save money on a monthly basis.

Fall Competition Information
Fall 2014 information
The transfer WOC will be conducted on a rolling basis starting Monday, July 28, 2014. Once you have notified the law school's Admissions Office of your intent to matriculate, you may gain access to the transfer WOC materials either by requesting a link to the online file by email or by coming into the law school and picking up a hard copy from the Registrar's Office during normal working hours.
Completed entries are due by the earlier of 5:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on the tenth day after you are sent the email link or pick up a packet in person, or 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday August 20. This final deadline is necessary to ensure that TWOC grading can be completed and invitations issued prior to August 25, which is the last day students can add new courses for the Fall 2014 semester. For example, if you gain access to the tryout materials at any time on Friday, August 1, your submission will be due by 5:00 pm on Monday, August 11. Because packet access will only be granted on regular workdays, the final deadline on August 20 means that you must be given access to the competition materials on or before Friday August 8 to have ten full days to work on your submission.
Incoming transfer students are eligible to participate in the Fall Competition held on a rolling basis as mentioned above. 1E's who are applying to transfer into 2D are allowed to compete.
Wednesday, August 13, 3:00 - 6:00 pm--Transfer Student Orientation, Girardi Bldg., Robinson Courtroom, 1st floor.

With a wide array of netbooks coming out, many are using ARM processors over the intel atom. I am specifically talking about the touch book from always innovating. I think that this would be a great hack machine for many reasons. But BT has not yet been ported to ARM, and I lack the skill and know-how to do so. Debian is supported on ARMs, so I wouldn't think it should be so hard for someone more skilled than me to do so. If I knew how to do this this would be what I was doing in spanish class (as opposed to actual spanish work.) for all of you guys. Not to mention that this would pave the way to BT on ipod/iphones, cell phones, and PDAs. That way we could finally have an ipod like the guy did in national treasure, and steal all sorts of valuables from large museums.
If I am being completely unreasonable, please correct me.
dd if=/dev/swc666 of=/dev/wyze
Hmm... I wonder would it be as simple as recompiling everything with an ARM compiler? The only trouble I can forsee you running into is:
1) If you have C code that depends on x86 CPU's (which really would only be a problem for compiling something low-level like a kernel, but who knows maybe even the kernel doesn't do anything specific with x86)
2) If you have assembly code specific to x86's.
The second problem could be solved simply by having an x86-to-ARM assembly converter, which wouldn't be complicated at all.
For the first problem, you'd just have to look for the bits of code that do stuff like use special CPU instructions (but hopefully all of these instances are documented).
Ask questions on the open forums, that way everybody benefits from the solution, and everybody can be corrected when they make mistakes. Don't send me private messages asking questions that should be asked on the open forums, I won't respond. I decline all "Friend Requests".
There are many packages for ARM in various Debian distro repos, but not everything is there no up to date.

Heya dude, the server should be up now, looks like it was down for a bit... Let me know if it still doesn't work, and yep enter the default.
First and foremost I would like thank all the dev,mods,bods & contributors for the outstanding tool that is BT3!
really THANK you all
I have been able to muddle through many instances of "how the hell do I do that?" syndrome using this forum to counteract my noobieness but now im stuck.
I updated Fasttrack from whatever version ships w BT3F using the update function on the web GUI, now when I try to run fasttrack it tells me I need to install pymills,the problem is that the auto installer on fasttrack will not install it and I cannot find out how to do it manually as the ****:/ / trac . shortcircuit . net . au / pymills / site is down.
when I run python setup.py install and hit Y to install pymills it gets through to this point

Heya dude, the server should be up now, looks like it was down for a bit... Let me know if it still doesn't work, and yep enter the default.
Hi relik cheers for the fast reply and also for your dedication to the fasttrack project, my hat is off to you!
I tried to run again but its still not working mate?

I'll take a peek as soon as the power comes back on here, we got hit with a 60mph windstorm that diced through our power grid. When the power gets back up I'll take a peek and see if I can fix.. Thanks for the output
Very strange, I am able to do it no problem from here.... Try manually download pymills and installing it:
tar -zxvf pymills-3.4.tar.gz
python setup.py install
That should do it for ya..
Still no joy here
bt ~ # tar -zxvf pymills-3.4.tar.gz
bt ~ # cd pymills-3.4
bt pymills-3.4 # python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 7, in <module>
pkg = __import__(name)
ImportError: No module named pymills-3.4
bt pymills-3.4 #
I have absolutly no idea what this means but I am assuming it must be something on my system.
the only changes I made from a clean install was to fix slapt-get using the 4 file fix from the wiki i then upgraded slapt get manually to the latest rls.
and I manually updated sqlite and then aircrack-ng.
any ideas?
Do me one more favor, download:
tar -zxvf setuptools-0.6cn9.tar.gz and python setup.py install then try running pymills setup, any luck?
Nay man.....
setuptools installed OK but pymills returned the same error as last time!
Ok im going back to a backup to see if its something ive broken in the last few days.
no joy with the backup :?
im rapidly running out of hair!
here is the full output in case it helps....

It's pretty well known that I'm a Nascar fan. I didn't see any races this weekend because I'm also an NFL fan so I was saving my limited TV time for the games on Sunday. I was watching CNN's Headline News this morning when they broadcast a story, complete with video, about Nascar driver Tony Stewart and his penchant for grabbing women's butts. This time the victim was the wife of fellow driver Kevin Harvick. I was really astounded at the light tenor of the news story and the fact that no one … [Read more...]

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
Fancy a shag (rug)? How about a '50s dinette set, an authentic lava lamp or a vintage flapper dress? Mod Living crams all of the above, and much more, into its understated space on East Colfax; it's a veritable museum of affordable art and furnishings for the nostalgia-minded decorator. Ranging from classic to kitschy, the tastefully cluttered store's wares are both practical and just plain fun.
Denver's jailhouse certainly doesn't rock, but those bright-orange jumpsuits sure are purty. If committing a crime, getting arrested and doing time in the pokey isn't worth it for you, though, why not just pretend? Where the Buffalo Roam, a novelty shop on the 16th Street Mall, sells orange jumpsuits, T-shirts, button-up shirts and a variety of hats with the words "Property of Denver County Jail" stenciled across them. While the city's corrections director, Fred Oliva, didn't have much of a sense of humor about the grim garments, that hasn't stopped people from snatching them up (after paying, of course), says a store employee. And why not? After all, the clothes look criminally cool.
Since it opened in February, Art-N-Soul has become like a Star Wars' Mos Eisley Spaceport for Denver-area graffiti artists who appreciate the difference between a fully conceptualized work of street art and a hastily thrown-up "tag" that's all autograph and no picture. Open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day except Mondays, Art-N-Soul is where you will find local graffiti writers showing off their sketch books and talking craft while local hip-hop maven Fly Jedi mixes beats and rings up sales behind the counter. Dominated by eye-popping wall murals by Denver writers Chase and Jehr, the shop carries a full line of graffiti-culture accoutrements. These include canvases and black books (both priced at just 50 percent over wholesale), T-shirts, underground hip-hop CDs, graffiti magazines While You Were Sleeping and Scribble, and custom-designed spray-paint caps used to adjust the width and rate of paint flow. Art-N-Soul is also one of the few retail outlets in the country to carry Belton Molotow Premium spray paint, the celebrated but hard-to-come-by German line designed by and for graffiti artists. "That's the butter stuff, right there," says Jehr. And the motto on the cans says it all: "Use for art, not vandalism."
Got gas? It's not just for dental patients anymore. Quasi-legal and relatively harmless, recreational doses of nitrous oxide are widely available hereabouts in the form of "whippits." Small aluminum cylinders of pressurized gas, whippits are sold in head shops and adult bookstores under the guise of chargers for homemade whipped-cream makers. But the price of nitrous in Denver is no laughing matter. Capitalizing on the underground nature of the product, most outlets charge an outrageous $28 to $35 for a case of 24. There are exceptions: Thankfully, the Joker has the best deal in town, at $15.99. At those prices, just say N20.
You can get reasonably priced cases of whippits (around $20) and sensibly priced whips ($30, more or less) at the Crypt. There's a bigger selection of novelties next door, but the pickin's are pretty good here, too. The rest, as they say, is up to you. Just whippit good.
Now you can wear your heart on your sleeve and your flag on your biceps -- and have something more than a permanent blemish to show for it. Last October, in the wake of September 11, the epidermis etchers at Dark Millennia Studios instigated this offer, though word from the Millennial staff is that there wasn't much of a response. The offer still stands, just like the good old American spirit: Declare your love for your nation in permanent ink, and 10 percent of the fee will go to the Red Cross or United Way in your name.

More than 900 youth football leagues have committed to the new Heads Up Football program, an initiative supported by the NFL and USA Football to promote a positive youth football experience for players, coaches and parents. It includes education of proper techniques and safety measures in an effort to curb concussions and other injuries.
The NFL recently announced that 77 former players, including Barry Sanders, Carl Banks and Randall Cuningham, will participate in the program as Heads Up Football ambassadors.
The 900 leagues encompass more than 200,000 youth players and 30,000 coaches in the United States.
Meghan McCaffrey, clinical assistant professor and laboratory coordinator in the department of athletic training and sports medicine at Quinnipiac University, is available to comment.
"The attention being brought to educating the youth participating in football by the Heads Up program the NFL is involved with is yet another step in the right direction for attempting to decrease the morbidity of concussions and cervical spine injuries," said McCaffrey.
"Over seven years ago, the National Athletic Trainers' Association began the Heads Up campaign to educate coaches, players and parents on how to help prevent cervical spine injuries and head injuries by tackling with the head up and leading with the shoulder and not the head and it is great to see the NFL becoming so involved in promoting this concept. This year, the NCAA has implemented new rules and penalties for dangerous behavior on the field that results in significant injury to the head or neck. As an athletic trainer, it is my hope that the continued dedication to education, recognition and proper treatment of spine and head injuries will lead to a lower incidence for these injuries. The tragic event of a young high school football player, Deantre Turman, who died just last week from a tackling injury during practice, is a stark reminder that the importance of this campaign and having an athletic trainer on the field to properly manage these injuries cannot be understated."
To speak to McCaffrey, please call John Morgan, associate vice president for public relations at Quinnipiac, at 203-206-4449 (cell) or 203-582-5359 (office).

Brian May recovering from knee replacement surgery
Listen to Queen on iHeartRadio
Brian May now has "a shiny new knee." The Queen guitarist underwent knee replacement surgery Tuesday afternoon.
He revealed his situation on his official website, BrianMay.com. Just before the procedure he wrote that he was about to "go down for the chop," and that he "may be quiet after that." But afterwards he offered an update, admitting the process is "no walk in the park" but it's left him feeling "optimistic and free of that OLD pain" for the first time "in months."
May doesn't say how long his post-op rehab will take.
He also mentioned his surgery in a post late last month, explaining that his knee was "deteriorating in spite of intensive physical therapy." He added that he had "great trust" in his "knee Prof," and was confident he was "in good hands."

A Little F'd Up | Posted by Julie Z on 05/23/2011
I'm Writing A Book. And You're Going To Help Me.
When I was a freshman in high school, I read Jessica Valenti's book Full Frontal Feminism and it changed my life. It's what sent me to Feministing, which introduced me to the feminist blogosphere, which in turn inspired me to start a blog for teenage feminists. Because just like Feministing, Full Frontal Feminism can be applicable to the lives of teenagers in many ways, and has been passed around plenty amongst teen feminists, but ultimately Full Frontal is geared towards women in their 20's and 30's.
And as absolutely fabulous as Full Frontal is, I think we can all agree that it's about time that teenage feminists have a book that is really ours – about and relevant to our lives and written from a teenage perspective. …

The term was introduced by Berzelius, who first studied such reactions.
I went from him to the renowned Berzelius, and laid in a stock of more.
But such a formula would have had no meaning for the wisest chemist before the day of Berzelius.
The great Berzelius was the first to obtain this element in 1823.
Through his remarks on bowlders, he gave rise to the later theories of Berzelius and Sfstrom of a bowlder period.
Selenium, indispensable in the apparatus, was discovered by Berzelius in 1817.
The results expressed in this memoir seem to me to be completely opposed to the opinions of Liebig and Berzelius.
"Biographie Universelle;" for notices of Berzelius and Lavoisier.
The classification adopted by Berzelius was essentially a dualistic classification.
It depends, said Berzelius, on the electrical states of these atoms.
Swedish chemist who is regarded as one of the founders of modern chemistry. Berzelius developed the concepts of the ion and of ionic compounds and made extensive determinations of atomic weights. In 1811 he introduced the classical system of chemical symbols, in which the names of elements are identified by one or two letters.

Five things you didn't know about Young The Giant
Listen to Young The Giant on iHeartRadio
It's about time for Young The Giant. No, really. This year the band finally released their first album in four years, since 2010's self-titled debut.
Ironically enough, the first single from their latest album Mind Over Matter was "It's About Time." The single did well, landing at number 2 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart in the U.S. The band's latest single is "Crystallized."
Fans will be able to hear these songs and more during Young the Giant's intimate show at the iHeartRadio Theater in Los Angeles tonight. Tune in here at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT to check out the show!
For now, check out some things you may not know about the band!
1. Before they were Young The Giant, they were known as The Jakes.
2. After they formed their band, the guys won an online contest to open for the Kings of Leon at the House of Blues in Chicago.
3. Their song "Texas Tea" was used in an episode of "The Real World: Brooklyn."
4. "Cough Syrup" was covered by Darren Criss' character on an episode of "Glee."
5. Young The Giant's hometown is Irvine, California.

It's apparent the Sabres aren't in a selling mood, as the pickup of Grier indicates they're still serious about making a run for the playoffs.

'Rock 'N Roll' Runner Overcomes Paralysis, Will Compete in Two Half Marathons Sunday
The Rock 'N Roll Marathon comes to downtown
North Carolina Native and avid runner, Beth Deloria traveled for years going state to state running in marathons across the country. But after suffering a spinal injury, she was left with foot drop, paralysis of her left foot and ankle making it impossible to flex her foot upward. Doctors questioned if she could walk again, let alone run.
"It really took a toll on me," Deloria said. "I never realized how much of my life was wrapped up in my physical activity and I knew I needed to get back to running."
After nearly two years sitting out from marathons, Deloria says she could no longer sit back and she was determined to do something. She turned to technology to find a way to run again.
"I found a brace that's made out of carbon fiber and it's meant to mimic the movement of the muscles of her left foot and ankle," Deloria said. "It acts just like a spring when I run."
Running has given Deloria a new mission, more than just maintaining a healthy lifestyle but spreading hope. She has teamed up with Allard
"I run for all the people who can't run, that's what I think about when I take the starting line," Deloria said. "I want people to know they can get back up and they can live a happy life…. That's why I do all the marathons… to spread awareness."
Deloria will be competing in the San Antonio Rock 'N Roll Half Marathon Sunday morning and immediately following will take a plan to Las Vegas to compete in their Rock 'N Roll half marathon and has made it a personal goal to complete 50 races in the next 24 months.
"It's a crazy thing to think about in terms of the stress you're putting on your body, but I have so much gratitude that I use that as my motivation."

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid informed reporters Monday that running back LeSean McCoy has a "chance" to play in Week 16 against the Washington Redskins. The former Pittsburgh Panther has been medically cleared to return after weeks off due to a concussion. McCoy hasn't played in a full month though. Rookie Bryce Brown has excelled at times and with little to play for, the Eagles may opt to severely limit McCoy's playing time and touches should he play.
Fantasy Analysis:
Fantasy owners who have remained patient with McCoy could be rewarded if they still have something to play for in their leagues. He has 985 total yards and five TDs on the year. If he's healthy enough to play, he is worth at least a flex play despite the obvious risks. We are still talking about one of the best players in the league in an offense led by a rookie QB. Obviously they'd lean on McCoy if he was in the starting lineup.

Hello everyone,
This is my first post on this forum. I have researched for many hours on how to correctly install Nvidia Drivers for the GT540m and have come to the conclusion (after seeing many posts about this) that the Nvidia drivers with Optimus tech is not supported and/or will not work with BT5 or linux in general. I looked into bumblebee and pyrit and CUDA tool kit (i did successfully install bumblebee, lost with pyrit and the CUDA toolkit); however, since seeing and reading so many different forums and websites and tutorials, it is unclear to me on how to do the installations of pyrit, CUDA toolkit and Nvidia drivers correctly and without hiccups. I have tried installing the Nvidia drivers in many different ways and I always run into a problem with not being able to startx and other errors. I have an Acer Aspire with a hybrids graphics system with an i5 processor. I do not want to play any games or do any graphic designs etc, I would be utilizing the GPU for BT5 features (WEP, WPA2 cracks, etc). Could anyone possibly guide me in the right direction with how to correctly install and configure the Nvidia drivers, pyrit and the CUDA toolkit. I am getting a little confused on how to do so correctly.

This enchanting journey features secluded bays, secret coves, and spectacular world-class scenery. We seek out killer whales, humpback whales, porpoise, sea lions, seals, and others. The boat takes lunch and breaks on the islands throughout the trip. Favourites include Port Browning, Poet's Cove and Port Sidney. This is an unforgettable trip of a lifetime you will not forget.
Whale Watching FAQ
These are the answers to our most frequently asked questions about our Whale Watching Adventures..
Q #1: Will We See Whales?
A. Yes, because we guarantee it. We are a member of the Pacific Whale Watching Association (PWWA). The entire fleet it outfitted with special whale radios and we alerted to where the whales are located. We have an 80% success rate so the likelyhood of seeing whales is extremely high, however if you do not see a whale (orca, minke, gray, or humpback) with us you can come again for FREE, for two years, until you do.
Q #2: Where Do We Go?
White Rock Sea Tours will in 30 minutes whisk you across the Straight of Georgia to the breathtaking Gulf and San Juan Islands where you will watch whales and other wildlife in their natural habitat. It is an unforgettable, trip of a lifetime!
Q #3: How Long Is the Trip?
Every trip is different as we explore the Canadian Gulf Islands, the US San Juan Islands and beyond, in search of whales and other wildlife. Our trips are typically 5 hours.
Q #4: What Does it Cost?
The rate for this unforgettable 5-hour adventure tour is $175/ person. Availability is limited to 11 seats per day. All Rates in Canadian Dollars.
Q #5: When Do We Leave?
We depart at the end of the White Rock Pier. Please arrive 30-minutes before departure.
Q #6: How Do I Book My Adventure?
We make it easy. You can book online (recommended) and at our presentation tent on the pier. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call us at (604) 868-1755.
Q #7: What Should I Bring?
It it going to be a great day. You are encouraged to bring sunscreen, bottle of water, snack, camera, and a BIG sense of adventure.
Q #8: What Should I Wear?
You are encouraged to wear a jacket, pants, hat, sunglasses, close toe footwear and of course a big smile. :)
Q #9: What If I have Other Questions?
Please give us a call at (604) 868-1755. We are more than happy to answer any questions you have in a friendly no-pressure way.
Q #10: Where Do I Park?
White Rock is infamous for expensive ($3/hour) parking fees. They are also quick to issue tickets. The other challenge is parking along Marine Drive is limited to 4 hours and our whale watching tour is between 4 and 5 hours. The solution is to park behind the Washington Avenue Grill for $6 for 8 hours (see map). This will give you a nice 15-20 minute walk along the White Rock Promenade to the Pier, plus will save you $10-$12 on parking fees.
Q #10: What is Your Cancellation Policy?
Once you have booked a trip, there is a 24 hour cancellation policy. For groups of five or more there is a 48 hour cancellation policy. Please note, our trips are weather dependent and we reserve the right to postpone trips due to weather or mechanical problems. If your trip is postponed, we will assist you in reserving a future date. Trips are not recommended for those with health concerns.

Brevard, N.C. - Eric Renegar went 5-for-5 from the plate in the first game, while Zach Merriken drove in four runs in the first contest, bringing home six runs in the game as Zach Huneycutt and four three relievers combined for the shutout as the Tornados swept visiting Briarcliffe on Wednesday afternoon, 13-6 and 7-0.
Thomas Gill and Huneycutt both picked up their first victories on the mound for Brevard as the Tornados improve to 11-9 on the season.
Game One: Brevard 13, Briarcliffe 6
Box Score
Brevard plated 11 runs in the first three innings and never looked back as they took the first game of the doubleheader against the Seahawks as the Tornados took the first game over Briarcliffe, 13-6.
The first five batters in Brevard's lineup reached base in the bottom of the first inning as the Tornados built a 3-0 lead against the Seahawks. Renegar and Cody Queen led off the inning with back-to-back singles and Tarron Robinson reached on a walk to load the bases. Merriken and Champ Stuart followed with RBI singles and Randy O'Dell brought in a run with a groundout to stake BC starter Tyler Lequire to an early lead.
Merriken, Stuart and O'Dell added RBIs again in the second inning, scoring Renegar, Queen and Merriken in the frame to double the Brevard advantage.
Briarcliffe put a crooked frame up on the board in the top of the third inning as David Darcy opened the scoring for the Seahawks, bringing home Joseph Fiorino after getting hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. A BC error led to the second Briarcliffe run crossing the plate as Anthony Mele scored to cut the lead down to 6-2.
The Tornados added five more runs in the bottom of the third inning, with Kramer Clark doing the majority of the damage in the frame with a two-out, two RBI single with the bases loaded, scoring Stuart and Merriken, while Queen, Merriken and Robinson added RBIs in the frame to give Brevard a commanding 11-2 lead.
Brevard added two more runs in the contest as Robinson and Merriken both recorded RBIs in the fourth inning, while Briarcliffe plated runs in the fourth and fifth innings with Ralph Perez and Thomas Butler bringing in Seahawks' runs.
Dustin Haithcox closed out the contest in the top of the seventh inning, retiring two of the four batters he faced on strikes to end the first game of the contest in favor of the Tornados.
Game Two: Brevard 7, Briarcliffe 0
Box Score
Huneycutt pitched three scoreless innings and Kevin Hamilton, Kody Miller and Casey Burnette combined to throw four hitless innings as the Tornados shutout the Seahawks in the nightcap of the doubleheader, topping Briarcliffe 7-0 in game two.
Brevard pushed runs across in the first five innings with Merriken drilling a two-run home run in the bottom of the first, while Robinson, Kameron Armacost and Queen all recorded RBIs and Stuart scored on a wild pitch as Brevard recorded their 11th win of the 2012 season.

I Love Ugly - Archibald - Brown/Silver. I Love Ugly's Archibald watch was the New Zealand brand's first foray into the premium wristwatch market and it opened the gateways for several other modern luxury watches by the company. Their aim is for the Archibald watch to make a statement on its owners behalf while also serving as a loyal and luxurious friend, one that can be relied up on in all situations, from work to play. With an oversized face diameter of just over 4cm and a metallic chain-linked strap there is something a bit bold and brassy about the Archibald watch by I Love Ugly. Just as well its inner components stand up to scrutiny too thanks to a Swiss quartz Movement which is tucked inside the hypoallergenic stainless steel case. The watch promises an extended battery life and all I Love Ugly watches come with a 12 month warranty.

Preparing For a Hurricane: Business Continuity Planning
As the east coast braces for another hurricane, we are reminded of the importance of having a business continuity plan in place to protect the people and processes that power a hedge fund.
The "beauty" of hurricanes and other weather-related situations from a BCP perspective is that businesses have time to prepare and put the necessary precautions in place. A firm that is ill-prepared for a hurricane is going to have real problems when an unannounced incident, such as a building fire, occurs.
In a previous post, we discussed how to respond to a pandemic emergency as well as the business continuity plan considerations. Many of these practices hold true for weather-related incidents because, in both situations, you have time to prepare before the disaster strikes.
Since there are unique considerations associated with a hurricane disaster, I sat down with one of Eze Castle's Certified Business Continuity Planners, Lisa Smith, to discuss what firms should think about before the hurricane arrives to help ensure they can continue operations. Following are some key business continuity preparation questions to consider:
A business continuity plan typically identifies a few key individuals who will activate at the plan. Will these individuals be available to execute the necessary steps? Often the BCP owners are also members of the management team who travel frequently. Now is the time to ensure they will be available to execute their BCP responsibilities.
What will be the criteria for allowing employees to work from home? Who will have the power to make that decision? You may want to consider allowing employees to work from home a few days prior to make sure they can assess the systems. Testing before the bad weather arrives is critical.
Do you have enough Citrix or VPN licenses to accommodate the number of employees working from home?
How will you communicate business continuity plans to employees during off hours? Will you use a call tree or an automated notification system?
If your office loses power or employees lose power at their homes, is there a central meeting location from which they can work? Hotels typically have generators and Internet/wireless access so they are ideal alternative employee meeting spots. Budget permitting, book a meeting room from which employees can work. Be sure to have a list of target hotels so you're not scrambling to find a location at the last minute.
What type of employee assistance will you offer should a catastrophic event occur? How will employees access this assistance (i.e. call HR or go to third-party)?
Which employees are traveling and may be stranded in remote locations due to airport or other transportation related closings? What type of assistance will be provided to them?
Finally, remember that clear communication is critical to ensure all your preparation pays off.

How is so much gameplay packed into a tiny handheld game? Get totally lost in the world of Pokemon. There is never a dull moment with this game.
Nintendo DS
This game is pretty similar to the other title i reviewed Pokemon Dimaond Version. The game delivers an addictive role playing game. The game blends 2D and 3D together to bring out great visuals. There are some wonderful soundtracks within the game and the game can be played online. It is one long engaging game with more than one hundred pokemon. The new touch screen is not up to standard. The accessibility is hindered if due to online problems. You will also get bored as there is recycling of sounds and the graphics are repeated throughout the game.
The Pokémon Diamond and Pearl has a lot of fans, the game has detailed presentation. The game starts up as any other of the Pokemon games. You play as either a boy or a girl who living in and out of hamlet of Twinleaf Town in the region of Sinnoh. Then you and your friend are sent to the world by Professor Rowan to collect a lot of data on the Pokemon that live in the region, you do this by fighting and capturing. As you travel, you will fight plenty of Pokemon and other Pokemon trainers. You will also be fighting and scattered all over Sinnoh.Diamond and Pearl introduces the odd shadowy Team Galactic. This is a Pokemon invested organization and you should be ready to battle with it. You will meet hundreds of people and each has a story to tell you.
However as much as Pokemon Pearl has its many limitations, fans will still enjoy the game. It is such a lengthy one though. You will start of with one Pokemon who is your substitute in the battle. You may be the leader in the game but you will need your proxy to lift heavy loads for you. You will regularly be attacked by the wild Pokemon as you move through forests, tall grasses and underground caves. If you are able to bring down their health, and will end up taming them and making them your companions.
You can have six Pokem at ago, with each of them having mastered four different abilities. As they earn experience the abilities are also earned, else you can use technical machines to teach them tricks .When your Pokemon grows stronger, and they can evolve into new stronger Pokemon.
In the Pokemon Pearl, the number of Pokemon is 480 and each of them should be captured and each of them is categorized by type. When a Pokemon attacks another it weakens and this way you are able to maneuver your way through. You should have all your Pokemon well balanced group of Pokemons to avoid attacks on the weaker ones. Ensuring that your team is well balance will prevent this. The game is more involving because you are always on the run to capture Pokémon and have them in your team. Apart from capturing and fighting, there are other activities. You will harvest, plant berries, even cook special meals for your Pokémon. You will find the games to be too long as many hours pass.

text: Apparently Hugh Hefner didn't learn his lesson the first time and Crystal Harris figured out a way to get more stuff while still being with who she wants because the couple announced they are engaged again. The first time ended in disaster with Crystal cheating on Hef with Dr. Phil's son and breaking her 9pm curfew and not being the type of girlfriend who was willing to accept her place in the assembly line of sex with an 80+ year old man. Crystal managed to find his Viagra for Hef though and worked his way back into his good graces by pre-chewing his food for him Alicia Silverstone style and going to bed with him every night by 7p. It also goes to show you that no matter how old you are or how wrinkled your body, if you have enough money a 20 something will be willing to marry you.

Ratings for Dr. Erica A. Fullerton
She is wonderful love her!!I found her to be very knowledgeable kind hearted.
Erica was my midwife with my previous pregnancy. I am pregnant again and have chosen her to be my midwife this time around. She is amazing!! She actually takes the time to sit with you and make sure all questions all answered.
As a labor and delivery nurse, I feel the need to correct the statement regarding "it's illegal for a midwife to deliver a baby without a doctor". That is absurd. A certified midwife has the same delivering priveledges as a doctor. Erica is a holistic practitioner and an assett to the community. I can't wait for her to delivery my baby in December.
I could have died because she didnt deliver my baby right and there wasnt a doctor in the room. Just her. Thats illegal.
Erica is wonderful. She saw me through the end of my pregnancy b/c my OB/GYN went on maternity leave. Erica made me feel very comfortable at all of my visits. I chose to stay w/ her even after my dr. came back.I highly recommend her.
i have been a patient of erica's for about 3 years now .In january 2007 i found out that i was pregnant through the enitre pregnancy erica was wonderful and so was her staff "helena".when i went into labor erica was at her office and literally ran to the devlivery room to make sure she was the one to deliver my son ......as long a erica is praticing i will be a patient of hers.she is awesome and i recoomend her to all my friends
she is awsome. wonderful. i love her. she is nothing but sweet and wonderful. i have had wonderful expericance with her.
I have been suffering from an ovarian cyst since as early as March. She has done minimal for me. All she ever tells me is that I need to wait it out and see what happens. I called her once due to extreme lower abdominal pain and she wouldn't give me anything for it. I explained to her that endometriosis runs in the family in hopes that she would somehow check me out for it and all she does is tells me to wait it out and if the pain doesn't go away with the aid of bc pills than she will try an alternative method. I am very displeased with the treatment I have received from there and would tell anyone to not go there. The practice's name is Taunton OB/GYN. Be aware!

Summary of Key Findings
Prior to the survey, Library staff did not know the number of Pre-1801 books in the five collections. Based on survey results, Library staff now know that the five collections contain approximately 10,330 Pre-1801 books. To rehouse these books for storage at Ft. Meade, a total of 1,220 boxes of ten standard sizes would be required.
Major Damage
Surveyors classified books as having major damage usually as a result of one or more of the following problems:
- Detached or partially detached boards
- Extensive losses of the covering material, often accompanied by loss of spine adhesive caused by past insect infestations
- Spine split into two or more parts (rarely)
- Extreme warping of boards
The Canon, Roman, and Italy collections contain a significantly larger number of severely damaged books than other collections. This observation is not surprising because these three collections contain a higher number of older books (i.e., 16th and 17th century) than the other collections surveyed.
Library of Congress Conservation Division survey staff sampled a total of 1,103 Pre-1801 books from an estimated population of 10,330 Pre-1801 books in the five collections addressed. Common problems noted include detached or partially detached boards, torn inner and outer joints, cover material losses, and warped boards. Survey results indicate that 1,155 books — approximately 11%, in the five collections — have major damage. Survey staff further indicated that the damage will likely worsen if these books are served to patrons or handled extensively.
Therefore, these books warrant attention (i.e., stabilization or treatment). On a collection basis, books in the Canon and Roman collections, and to a lesser extent the Italy collection, are in most need of treatment in terms of number of severely damaged books. To re-house the collections for safe relocation to Ft. Meade, staff would need approximately 1,220 boxes of ten standard sizes.
This focused model project provided Library staff with much greater knowledge of five Law Library collections, their preservation and treatment needs, and what supplies will be necessary to carefully move the collections to the new Ft. Meade cool storage facility. The resulting data will be useful for many years to come as Conservation staff make decisions that will extend the life expectancy of Law Library collections.

Three alleged gang members have been arrested as suspects in last week's robbery at Nordstrom Rack in Westchester, where gunmen held 14 people hostage, stabbed one employee and sexually assaulted another, police said Sunday.
Los Angeles police will release details of the arrests at a news conference later this morning.
The men are suspected in Thursday's night's holdup at Nordstrom Rack at The Promenade at Howard Hughes Center, adjacent to the San Diego (405) Freeway at Sepulveda Boulevard and Center Drive.
According to police, officers swarmed the center at 10 p.m. when a man dialed 911 to report that his girlfriend had called him to say two gunmen had barged into the store. The store was closed but 14 employees were inside.
Officers saw a white sport utility vehicle flee the parking structure when they arrived, but lost it as it raced away. Police officers surrounded the shopping complex and locked down the Rave theaters, keeping about 200 movie patrons inside.
After several hours, a police SWAT team entered the Nordstrom store, finding the employees inside a storage room. Officers learned a female employee was sexually assaulted and a man stabbed during the crime.

Main Content
about the honors college
What is the Honors College?
Founded in 1982, the Honors College is a four-year program designed for the academically superior student. Unlike at most universities, which organize their curriculum into departments (for example, biology, literature, or communications), at SCSU, courses in the Honors College are interdisciplinary, organized around themes and questions common to many disciplines, and approached differently in each. Honors courses are also team-taught, with professors from different departments approaching the Honors class from the distinct perspectives of their own training and scholarship. Honors classes are small, each limited to an enrollment of 20 students, which fosters a high level of student involvement in the classroom. Students do much writing, and they receive close, individualized feedback on their papers and creative work. Through this technique of lively, interdisciplinary interchange, the free flow of ideas as well as their interpretation and analysis is encouraged in the Honors student, who learns to discover underlying structures of knowledge in all areas of study, whatever his/her major.
Are scholarships available?
Yes! Each year, the majority of our Honors freshmen are awarded a Presidential Scholarship, which is guaranteed competitively renewable for a total of eight semesters, provided that the student remains in good standing in the Honors College. This scholarship, which covers full in-state tuition and fees, is not need-based and so does not require a financial aid application. (Other forms of aid may be available through the Financial Aid Office, so you should still file with FAFSA.) The Presidential Scholarship, available only to Honors College members, acknowledges the student's accomplishments and encourages his or her potential. It is an honor which demonstrates the continuing commitment of SCSU to academic excellence.
How is the Honors program distinctive?
Honors College students may choose a major in any field. During the first two years of college, our students typically enroll in two Honors courses each semester, along with three other courses selected from their major field or free electives. These eight Honors courses, when taken together, replace most of the all-university required courses and comprise roughly a third of the student's total academic program.
During their final two years, Honors students concentrate on their major fields. In addition, juniors take a research seminar in the Honors College, and seniors complete an Honors Thesis or independent project, working closely with a faculty advisor.
Successful Honors College seniors are recognized at the annual Awards Convocation, where they receive university honors from their department(s) as well as from the Honors College.
Who may qualify for admission to the Honors College?
- High school seniors with outstanding academic ability;
- Incoming transfer students with outstanding records who have not yet met most of the all-university requirements (with permission of the director).
Candidates for the Honors College also show a commitment to community service and/or co-curricular activities (such as athletics and performing arts, and leadership skills.
What else is special about the Honors College?
There is a bond among our students and faculty which both fosters individual achievement and also promotes group camaraderie. A key role in our program is played by faculty advisement, which begins before registration and continues throughout the Honors student's university career. Freshmen receive counsel from the Honors College director, from another specially-chosen Honors professor, and also from an advisor in their major area of study. In addition, Honors College students are a tightly-knit group. With faculty, they plan numerous outings and extracurricular activities, both social and intellectual. Honors students are often campus leaders, traditionally interesting themselves in local causes and looking outward to the larger world community.

Converting Between struct:time and ISO8601 Format
Revision as of 02:10, 30 August 2006 by 18.104.22.168 (Talk)
You have an application that requires you to use ISO-8601 Format for input and output.
Unfortunately, no Erlang libraries provide this functionality. Luckily, the native Erlang date and time formats are very easy to format for display or transmission, even in ISO-8061 format:
iso_8601_fmt(DateTime) -> {{Year,Month,Day},{Hour,Min,Sec}} = DateTime, io_lib:format("~4.10.0B-~2.10.0B-~2.10.0B ~2.10.0B:~2.10.0B:~2.10.0B", [Year, Month, Day, Hour, Min, Sec]). 1> CurrDateTime = erlang:localtime(). {{2004,8,28},{1,19,37}} 2> {{Year,Month,Day},{Hour,Min,Sec}} = CurrDateTime. {{2004,8,28},{1,19,37}} 3> io:fwrite("~s\n",[iso_8601_fmt(erlang:localtime())]). 2004-08-28 01:48:48
However, if you're writing a web application, you may need to observe the W3C profile for time formats, which is slightly different. See the TimeRFC1123 Recipe for details:
The nice thing about the W3C profile of the ISO 8601 format is that it's very easy to sort dates using a simple string compare.

GREAT for production from your magic props!
Ours is MUCH LARGER than the ones you've seen - a HUGE
SIXTEEN FEET LENGTH by 2" WIDE!
OUR multicolor RAINBOW production streamer (RED, ORANGE,
GREEN, PURPLE, YELLOW) is beautifully made of 100% pure
silk. So it's highly compressible, suitable for all
production items.
Streamers like this used to sell for $25.00 or more.
Check out our SPECIAL BUY PRICE! Buy 3 or more and
we'll take $2.00 off each one!
IMAGINE reaching into your EMPTY HAND (it really is!) and producing a rainbow multi-colored streamer OVER THREE OR SIX FEET LONG! You can make it VANISH just as easily! Sleeves rolled up!
While our 36 inch streamers take up about the same room as a 6 or 9 inch scarf - the long length seems so much more unbelievable to your audience, that we highly recommened these for use in your thumb tip!
Be sure to order a thumbtip (required)! If you already own one, get some extra mileage from yours!
Also GREAT for use in all your production props!
These are beautiful, very VIBRANT (red, yellow, blue and green), much prettier than regular silks, and easily fit into a thumbtip for easy production.
Made of quality silk for easy compression into a thumb tip or other prop.
Rainbow dyed and very pretty. Very eyecatching!
Two sizes..73 inches and 36.5 inches, both about 1-1/2 inches wide.
What makes the thumbtip streamers so great is that since they are SO long and narrow they appear larger and harder to hide than a regular silk. It really looks impossible, when you vanish or produce a long streamer from your hands!
You can fit two of these into a thumbtip. This is a MUST GET. You'll receive great reactions from both children AND adults!
Some ideas:
Vanish and/or produce this silk streamer from a standard tip in your bare hand just as you would a 6" or 9" silk. But it has much more impact than those little silks!!
Borrow a dollar bill, roll it into a tube, and produce the silk streamer from inside the bill!

There has been a lot happening in Nandaka Vihara, Bukit Mertajam, Malaysia this week. Ven. Pa Auk's Sayadaw visited the place on sunday and monday. I was fortunate enough to have a private interview with him. He confirmed that for someone who wishes to become a monk, it is better to go step by step, stayingat each stage long enough to become stable, starting by 8 precepts, '9 precepts' (I seriously don't know what he was referring to here), 10 precepts etc.
This morning I had the chance to meet at Nandaka Sayadaw U Revata, who is the instructor for foreigners at Pa Auk (the monastery in Burma). I asked him if I would be allowed to keep using my computer to continue my websites (see my signature below) in case I would stay there, and he answered that it wouldn't be allowed, but showed great interest in buddha-vacana.org. He asked me to write down the address on a piece of paper for him.
