I will be in Eugene for a meeting on Jan 14th and 15th and would like to see some of the Oregon Coast; perhaps on the previous weekend or maybe starting on Jan 10th. What area would be relatively easy to drive to from Eugene or Portland? What kind of weather should I expect? Can you suggest some B&Bs? — Lois
From the coast, the most direct route to Eugene is from Florence on the Oregon Coast via OR 126 (just under 1.5 hours). You didn't mention where you are traveling from, but it sounds like you may be coming from the north and you could easily spend four days traveling the North and Central coast between Astoria and Florence. Astoria is famous for bed & breakfasts in historical Victorian homes. If you are looking for more ocean beach destinations, I would consider starting in Seaside or Cannon Beach. In Seaside, you may want to try the Gilbert Inn B&B (historic home). In Cannon Beach, consider Song of the Sea B&B (modern home, close to town and beach). Just south of Cannon Beach is the unique French Chateau-like Arch Cape Inn. In the Newport area, you may want to consider the Sylvia Beach Hotel. It's actually a historic beach hotel, but very B&B like with a literary slant. Rooms are furnished and decorated based on famous authors. Another unique B&B stay would be the Heceta Head Lighthouse B&B, the original lighthouse keepers' home (near Florence).
Weather is typically mild and rarely below freezing on the coast, so your travel along the coast should not be a problem. You will want to check on pass conditions as you pass through the Coast Range on your way to and from the coast. From the Portland/Longview area, the lowest elevation on the North Oregon Coast is Highway 30 into Astoria (the Washington side of the Columbia is even closer to sea level). Highway 26 is the most direct route to the coast from Portland, but the Coast Range summit is about 1500 feet and is most likely to have mountain travel conditions. The highest point on OR 126 from Florence to Eugene is under 800 feet.
Weather in January is typically cool with highs average in the high 40s and lows in the mid to high 30s. It is one of the wetter months of the year, averaging nine or more inches of rain during the month, so be prepared. Many come to the coast for storm watching this time of year. There can be high winds. The storm tossed seas can be an awesome site.
Hope this helps.
Happy travels!

ICT-Investment, Knowledge Accumulation and Endogenous Growth
In this paper we present an endogenous growth model based on Lucas (1988). We have extended the Lucas model by incorporating ICT-capital next to human capital. We take account of spillovers from ICT use in human capital formation to final output production. The effects on growth of these spillovers depend very much on whether they are external or completely internalised. We find that welfare is positively affected, the stronger these spillovers are, but also the more these spillovers are internalised. In addition, we find that in the case of limited internalised knowledge spillovers, we may face a multiple equilibria steady state growth situation, that has an inherent tendency to select the non-optimum (high growth) equilibrium in which all types of capital are 'over accumulated', including ICT-capital. This suggests that there is room for policy intervention here, because there exists an 'optimum' value of the knowledge-spillover parameter where both equilibria coincide and over accumulation does not happen.

As a leaseholder, what rights do I have?
Disgruntled leaseholders have the right to take over the management of their building, under "Right to Manage" (RTM) rules.
The measures mean leaseholders can take decisions about the upkeep and management of their flats, without having to buy the property's freehold.
The system helps people suffering from bad landlords and is designed to "empower" leaseholders who want more control in the running of their building.
Anyone who meets the entry qualifications can apply - and there is no requirement to prove any wrongdoing by your landlord or pay compensation.
The advantage of RTM is that leaseholders can gain better control over the level of service charges set, can appoint their own choice of managing agents - and select their own insurers.
Sounds good, how do I go about setting up an RTM?
Leaseholders must get together and set up an RTM company.
They are then required to serve a formal notice on their landlord.
The building must meet certain conditions and a minimum number of leaseholders is required to take part.
For example, qualifying buildings must include at least two flats, and at least two-thirds of the flats must be let to 'qualifying tenants', whose lease was originally granted for an original term of more than 21 years.
The number of qualifying tenants must be equal to at least half the total number of flats in the building.
My landlord isn't going to like this, can he block it?
Your landlord can dispute the claim, but only on a number of rather limited grounds.
And if this process ends in stalemate, both parties can settle the matter through a tribunal.
People considering an RTM must remember there are costs involved.
If they withdraw their claim or lose their case at the tribunal, they will be liable for any "reasonable costs" incurred by the landlord.
These include the landlord's legal expenses, accountancy and audit costs, although the exact payment can be determined through an additional tribunal hearing.
The Leaseholder Advisory Service (Lease) has a free and detailed guide to RTM, available on its website (see link on right).
The Association of Managing Agents (Arma) also has some information on the legislation (see link on right).
Will every tenant be able to take advantage of the RTM rules?
While the rules could be a big help to people who are fed up with their landlord, some will miss out.
Setting up an RTM can involve buildings which are part-commercial.
However, the non-residential part must not exceed 25% of the total floor area to qualify.
In essence, this means residents in blocks which are more than one quarter commercial will not have the right to manage their own affairs.
What if I am getting a raw deal from my landlord but am not eligible for an RTM?
Improvement costs and administrative charges must now be "reasonable" and can be challenged at a Leasehold Valuation Tribunal.
In future landlords must consult leaseholders before they sign a contract for more than a year, for example, for lift maintenance or security.
Are there any alternatives for people excluded from setting up an RTM?
In 2004 the government introduced a new right to "commonhold".
Under a commonhold system, there is no landlord, and every resident or "unit holder" in the property will have equal rights.
For people excluded from the new RTM companies, the commonhold agreements could be a welcome introduction.
There will be no restrictions on the commercial and residential mix in blocks to qualify.
According to the Department for Constitutional Affairs it is simpler to administer and set up than a RTM.
But converting from a leasehold block to one owned by commonhold will require the participation of all the leaseholders.

St. Kate's Newswire :: St. Catherine University, St. Paul, MN :: News and Events
Graduating senior shares journey of growth at Commencement
When Anika Bratt enrolled at St. Kate's four years ago, she was set on pre-med coursework and becoming a doctor. After her second semester of general biology courses — in which she participated in some ecological research related to St. Kate's new residence halls, adjacent to the campus woods — she began to think more about environmental science.
On December 16, Bratt will speak on behalf of the graduates at St. Catherine University's 2010 winter Commencement. She will share how St. Kate's has "taught me to think for myself and seek my own truths." Bratt was selected earlier this month by a joint faculty, staff and student committee.
Bratt, who will receive her Bachelor of Arts degree in biology at the graduation ceremony, is an Antonian Scholar and a STEM Scholar, in addition to being a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Beta Beta Beta (Biology honors society) and Sigma Delta Pi (Spanish honors).
She spent two summers in northern California—at the Heath and Marjorie Angelo Coast Range Reserve—conducting stream ecological research with Biology Professor Jill Welter. It was here that Bratt "fell in love with the process of science and the pursuit of new knowledge," she says.
The stream research became the focus of her Antonian Honors project, which she presented in early December. Bratt also discussed the research data at three conferences, including the Ecological Society of America's national conference in Albuquerque during summer 2009.
Last fall, Bratt collaborated with Professor Welter again. This time as her teaching assistant for "The Reflective Woman," one of St. Kate's core courses for first-year students.
Bratt spent the January-term of her sophomore year studying Spanish in Mexico. (She has a minor in the language.) Italy was next on her list; she took a classical studies course there earlier this year.
"I'm absolutely glad I chose St. Kate's," says Bratt, who hails from Bird Island, Minn. "St. Kate's has allowed me to academically thrive and become a global citizen."
Extracurricular activities are equally important to Bratt. She co-chaired the Student Senate Organizational Affairs committee for five semesters and played a key role in the Senate's Environmental Issues Task Force. She was among the students responsible for President Andrea J. Lee, IHM signing the American College & University Presidents' Climate Commitment in November 2008.
She also sang with the St. Catherine Choral Society and was a new student orientation leader and science tutor at St. Kate's O'Neill Center for Academic Development.
So, what's next for this Katie?
"I am applying to Ph.D. graduate programs in ecology and bio-geochemistry," she says. "And in February, I will be working as a field technician in Trinidad on ecological research."
Bratt's dream job: "To teach and conduct research at a liberal arts institution."

text: Attention Linux geeks and embedded developers! I have a beta version (clear casing) of the limited-run Neuros OSDs which I'm considering parting with. I bought one of these legendary 200 units (sold out in 10 hours!) with the intent of developing and running a network media device on it. Unfortunately, I'm buried in briefs and research and assorted other time-consuming activities for the foreseeable future and don't have any free time to develop anything for the platform. The build environment can run on OS X, and there's an active and vibrant developer community getting off the ground. It works perfectly and I'm including all original cables and accessories. It's in literally brand new condition, having been used exactly 3 times. The current versions sell for $229, but this is a rare 'geek' version. The website is here, and it comes with remote, IR blaster, AV cables, serial cable, null modem adapter, and a plastic stand. I'll even throw in a 32MB CF card if you'd like (for custom firmware installs). It supports USB storage (thumb drives, hard drives in FAT32), along with a variety of memory card formats (SD, MMC, Compact Flash). The USB port is iPod-compatible, and there's also an ethernet port. This is mostly for people who want to develop in Linux at this point, although it works very well as a video converter for portable devices, and it's a competent digital VCR (not a DVR, though, as it lacks a program guide [under development]) if you have a cable/satellite box. I'm asking for $175 shipped ($55 plus tax/shipping less than a new one) and trying to gauge interest. I'm fairly flexible on price, but this is definitely a collector's item in the making.

What is the need for physician recruiting?
Hospitals, Groups and even small practices hire recruiters for a number of reasons. Recruiting is a full time job and many facilities do not have the resources dedicated to this task to provide for quality physician search. For this reason, outsourcing the search is the best solution. Additionally, every facility is in competition for candidates as are candidates for jobs. We are in tune with the market and have worked with many successful placements giving us a strong base of knowledge and experience in dealing with all matters involved in physician recruiting.
The NOVO opportunity advertised appears to be wonderful; is there what is a catch?
Our team evaluates every opportunity making sure it is one that we can complete before agreeing to sign. We build advertisements to communicate the features of the practice and community. We find out the negatives and the positives and give all information to you in order to provide as much transparency as we are able.
What does this cost me as a candidate?
Nothing, ever. Our professional recruitment services are paid solely by the recruiting healthcare facility. Physician candidates should never pay to advertise nor pay fees to a recruitment firm for recruitment services.
How is NOVO qualified to represent physicians and practice opportunities?
Our team has extensive experience in physician recruitment and is well versed in the industry. Our rigorous weekly and monthly training, by outside consultants specializing in the marketplace, malpractice, specialty-specific issues, and customer service includes even our most seasoned consultants.
I had a bad experience with another recruiter. How will NOVO provide a better experience?
We strive to provide a positive search experience each and every time. We make every effort to get to know you personally and ensure that an opportunity is a good fit for you and your family. Before you visit an opportunity in person, you will have extensive knowledge of the practice and community amenities. All of the opportunities we represent have been researched through a profile evaluation by one of our experienced recruiters. We talk with and often meet with the decision makers to ensure that all of the pieces are in place so that a new physician coming into the community will be able to establish a busy, successful practice. Our candidates find that our concierge service helps them out each step of the way by providing them with scheduling and travel assistance, comprehensive interview itinerary & location information, and contract knowledge and negotiations. We are here to work as a liaison between you and the recruiting facility to make sure that you receive the best possible offer.
Can our conversations be confidential?
Yes, NOVO Medical Careers follows national guidelines that honor confidentiality. We will only forward your information to facilities that you have approved.
Why don't you put the specific locations of your practice opportunities in your advertising?
There are several reasons:
What is the difference between "retained" and "contingent" contracts?
A retained contract works best for facilities to find candidates for specific practice opportunities. Recruiters, when retained, gain first-hand knowledge of these practices by traveling out to the communities and visiting with all of the key decision makers when possible. They will see everything that you would see on an interview so they can give you credible information about the practice and the community.
A recruiter with a contingency contract often works more like a sports agent, profiling the physician candidate first to understand their motivations and practice/community desires. The recruiter networks the specified location(s) to determine whether an appropriate opportunity exists and brings it to the attention of the physician. If agreed upon, the recruiter will introduce the physician to the identified practice and facilitate the interview process.
How long does it take to get a state license?
The timeframe to obtain a license varies from state to state and from individual to individual. Based on your current license situation and the state to which you are applying, licensure can take anywhere from two weeks to eight months. We will consult with you to determine a more accurate timeframe, and we can help facilitate professional services specializing in new licensure and greatly reduce the time it takes to gather all the information the licensing board will need.
I am not graduating for another year. Is it too early to begin my search?
Not any more! It is never too soon to begin your job search, and one year out is the perfect time to start. It usually takes approximately three to six months to get a state license, and three months to receive privileging and insurance plans.
I am not sure what kind of practice I am interested in. What is the easiest way to learn about all of the opportunities that your firm represents and choose which one suits me the best?
Let the recruiter consult you on your needs and then help you choose the most fitting opportunities. Then choose two or three with the firm and interview.
My question is not answered here. Where can I get an answer to a question that is not here?
Please visit our Contact Us page to send your question.

Ratings for Dr. J. Todd Hannah
Love Dr Hannah!!! He listens to the patient and very thorough with patients. I would recommend him to any and everyone!!
I carry high risk pregnancies. Dr. Hannah treated me through both of them with flying colors! He considered not only what was best for both myself and my babies, but listened to my concerns and preferences as well and yielded to them as much as possible, while ensuring all our health! That is that makings of a great doctor!!! He didn't push anything on me but provided all the supporting data as to why this would be in our best interest and then left the final decision up to me. And never made me feel bad or guilt tripped me when I chose to try things another way. I'm finished with my child bearing, but Dr. Hannah will always be my gyno until he decides to retire! Which my plan is to keep him practicing until i no longer need him! Shhhh!
I would recommend dr hannah! He delivered my second child and I was very satisfied. Was in labor 6 hours and had her in 10 minutes. It was a very quick delivery. I am actually going back to him for my 3rd. :-)
Dr Hannah is a very cool doc. he has been very helpful maintaining good health all thru my pregnancy and after. i never felt burden when i went to see him like i did with other doctors.
I love Dr Hannah and nurse Wendy. they are so good at their job!! they saved my daughter's life!!
the worst doctor ever made a horrible mistake during surgery and years later I'm stiill paying with pain and additional costs. he took no responsability whatsover what good is a doctor with no morals his interest is your $$$$$$$
Dr. Hannah and his staff are the best! They have taken care of me and my family with lots of respect and love. Thank you for being the best GYN office!
he was a great doctor, had lots of problems with pregnancy an he made sure the baby would be ok an he said to have the hospital call him to make sure he delived the baby .. baby was 6 weeks early an got to go home 2 days later! GREAT DOCTOR!!!
Dr. Hannah is a wonderful doctor. He performed a D&C and a year later delivered my second baby. It is true he is kind, understanding and makes you feel like you are the most important patient he has :)
Dr. Hannah is the best doc I have ever been to. I am attempting a VBAC and he has been nothing less of completely supportive. I gave him a 3 for being on time because I usually have to wait a while to see him but only because he runs back and forth to the hospital to deliver babies. Can't complain there... I trust him and recommend him to others any chance that I get. EXCELLENT doctor - his type is hard to come by.

Nick and Suzanne are newlyweds with a dream home in the suburbs in mind to raise their children in. However, that dream is challenged by the bizarre methods of their new contractor.
If the teenage Ice Cube had foreseen that the journey Straight Outta Compton would have led him to this drivel, he may not have been in such a hurry to get out. Quite how the man who once implored us to Fuck Tha Police — and who briefly shone in early film outings Boyz N The Hood and Barbershop — decided a witless family comedy about a bloke whose new house is falling down was the way to go is a mystery.
As for the genius who thought 2005's Are We There Yet? needed a sequel, give him a pay rise. Without Scrubs' John McGinley, the sole provider of any type of comedic touch, the corners of your mouth would be turning up less than this house's peeling wallpaper. Are we done yet? Oh yes.
Even John C McGinley (Dr. Cox from Scrubs) can't save this lamest of comedies.

Teaching the Haitian Revolution – Why it is Important
This article by Valentina Peguero of UW – Stevens Points articulates the importance of teaching about the Haitian revolution and how Haiti's history fits into the larger context of world history.
Jean-Bertrand Aristide is a Haitian politician and former Roman Catholic priest who served as Haiti's first democratically elected president. He was briefly President of Haiti in 1991, prior to a September 1991 military coup, and was President again from 1994 to 1996 and from 2001 to 2004.
Edwidge Danticat is a Haitian born author. Her novels and short stories have been critically acclaimed and she is a strong advocate for issues affecting Haitians abroad and at home.
Paul Farmer is an American physician and anthropologist. He has written numerous books on Haiti and global health and is one of the founders of Partners in Health (PIH), a worldwide health organization that operates a free hospital in Haiti.

They say you have to start early but Laura van Rijn, 26, waited until she was 16 to take up the flute. Som Howie, 22, used to play with Lego under the piano as his father coached singers but only started clarinet at 12, when one of his father's colleagues at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music needed a complete beginner to trial a new teaching program.
Ten years on, these aspiring orchestral musicians have won the jackpot: a place in this year's Sydney Symphony Fellowship program.
The fellows are: Rebecca Gill, 26, violin (NSW), Kelly Tang, 26, violin (NSW), Nicole Greentree, 24, viola (NSW), James Yoo, 24, cello (NSW), Jack Schiller, 21, bassoon (South Australia) and Brendan Parravicini, 23, horn (Western Australia), along with van Rijn, flute (WA), and Howie, clarinet, (NSW).
With the help of the program's major sponsor, Credit Suisse, they all receive a stipend to spend a year with the orchestra. During that time, they will take part in a range of orchestral performances alongside experienced orchestral mentors, squeezed in between a packed schedule of chamber music, masterclasses and professional development sessions.
The artistic director of the program, Sydney Symphony's principal viola, Roger Benedict, says the fellowship is unique.
''It's unusual in the fact that there is a big emphasis on chamber music,'' he says. ''Most orchestral training programs are about orchestral technique but, in a way, that's the easy part.
''We do chamber music, specially tailored workshops on things like stagecraft and Alexander technique. We also try to connect with the biggest audience possible. This year we'll be playing in a high-security prison, in schools' concerts and in corporate settings.''
Why the emphasis on chamber music?
''There is no better preparation,'' Benedict says. ''It's a cliche to say that orchestra playing should be like a big chamber ensemble but it's true. The skills that you learn, like listening, how to follow, knowing when to take initiative, when to take a back seat, knowing how far to impose yourself on the group - all those things are in need in the orchestra.''
This year's fellows test their skills next Wednesday in their first public concert, a lunchtime chamber music recital at St James's Church, Sydney. Benedict will be watching closely to see how they perform.
''They haven't worked with each other yet,'' he says. ''It's like an arranged marriage. We expect them to form an ensemble and make great music.''
Whether the marriage will work is yet to be seen but the potential is there, the eight young musicians selected for the program representing some of Australian music's highest achievers. Van Rijn, for example, is studying for a PhD and her research subject is orchestral auditions. Howie is still completing his undergraduate degree but he has already performed with the Sydney Symphony, in Mahler's Ninth Symphony at the end of 2011.
''It was the scariest gig but also the biggest boost for me", says Howie, who made it to the finals of the ABC's young performer competition last year.
The program offers a flying start to a career as an orchestral musician. There are alumni of the program in the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam, the Leipzig Gewandhaus in Germany, across Britain and in every Australian orchestra, not to mention the Sydney Symphony. Benedict insists the program is not simply an extended job interview.
''We're not just training them to be members of the Sydney Symphony,'' he says. ''That would be unfair. There might be one flute job come up every 10 years. So we would be failing our fellows if we were only training them to be a round peg in a round hole. We're training them to be as adaptable as possible.
''I want them to be at the forefront of the profession, not just waiting for opportunities to come. So I don't want them trained up to feel entitled when a job comes up in the SSO. I want them to think how they can lead the profession.''
The Sydney Symphony Credit Suisse Fellows perform at St James's Church, Sydney, on Wednesday at 1.15pm. Entry is by donation.

James Oliver Drorbaugh of Arizona, Child-Porn Collector, Faces Four to Six Years in Slammer
James Oliver Drorbaugh, 35, will get four to six years in prison when he's sentenced on May 6 for possessing child pornography, his plea agreement shows.
Drorbaugh, who's lived in Payson and Chandler, was busted in 2011 after an undercover FBI agent downloaded child porn from his computer using a file-sharing site.
Following a raid of his home and search of his computer and storage media, the FBI found more than a thousand child-porn videos and hundreds of still photos.
Besides the images and videos of adolescent and prepubescent kids engaged in sexual act with both kids and adults, "some of the images contained in this library portrayed sadistic and/or masochistic conduct," court records state.

In an interview with agents, Drorbaugh admitted he possessed at least one image showing an actual child participating in a sex act; records state it depicts a prepubescent girl performing oral sex on an adult woman.
Last month, Drorbaugh pleaded guilty to possession of a single image of child porn, though not necessarily the image described above,
Drorbaugh wasn't jailed after the raid and he was even allowed to continue using a computer, as long as he didn't try to access any pornographic sites. But, as mentioned, his agreement stipulates that he'll serve at least four years in prison, and will have to register as a sex offender when he gets out.
U.S. District Judge Susan R Bolton could give him as many as six years under the agreement, but also has the option to cancel the plea deal if she doesn't believe the agreement or range of prison time is appropriate.
We weren't able to reach Drorbaugh this afternoon, but we did speak with his attorney, Howard Snader.
Snader says that while Drorbaugh "freely acknowledges" that he had child porn on his computer, he says his client wasn't responsible for everything the FBI found on the hard drive.
The man who "introduced" Drorbaugh to child porn apparently downloaded some of the files, Snader says. That man received a nine-year prison term in an unrelated case involving child porn and drugs, he says.
"Mr. Drorbaugh was sloppy about who had access to his computer," Snader says. "(He) has always maintained that the nastier, prepubescent child porn was downloaded by other individuals."
Snader goes on to say, however, that the one picture to which Drorbaugh admitted to possessing was "nasty."
Sounds like Drorbaugh could have done much worse than this plea deal.

The greeting at one of my offices was recorded a long time ago (Maybe 4 years) by a woman.
The greeting is nice, it's correct and she is also from the UK so there is an accent.
It's a standard greeting like all my other offices.
The request was to change it,
I asked why they said it's old.
I asked "What do you mean by old what's wrong with it?"
Well it's Linda and she's no longer here.
I said 19 other greetings are by people that are no longer here.

I don't even know if most of the recorded messages I hear are by people even still alive, and I doubt it matters much.
On the good news side, business must be just fine and that allows people to worry about greeting messages - since there is no real work to attend to.
May 3, 2013 at 8:43 UTC
That's management for you...
Who cares if they are still there. A nice uniform greeting is not a menial task.

Environmental education starts where science education stops: Let's look at our water
Davis, Julie M. (2001) Environmental education starts where science education stops: Let's look at our water. Educating Young Children.
|PDF (38kB)
This paper - based on a conference workshop for early childhood practitioners - illustrates the serious issues facing Australians with regard to water overuse. It proposes that science education is an imperfect vehicle for helping students become wiser and more active water conservationists. Environmental education - with its focus on social critique and action-oriented learning - offers a more likely framework for creating social change that reduces water consumption and protects water supplies and, also, 'makes a difference' with regard to living sustainably.

Akmal, 25, disappointed behind the stumps in Pakistan's 2-1 Test series defeat to the South Africans, dropping a number of catches and missing several stumping opportunities.
Former captain and top grade wicketkeeper Bari said he had advised captain Inzamam-ul-Haq and coach Bob Woolmer to play reserve keeper Zulqarnain Haider in the five-match one-day series starting on Feb 4.
"Sometimes a good rest does you good and it clears your mind and stress," Bari told Reuters.
"If he continues to play in this bad patch his confidence will get badly affected. Kamran's reflexes are slow and he is under stress and lacking confidence.
"The basics are the same for a good wicketkeeper. He needs to take a break and get his confidence back."
Akmal has played 33 Tests and 57 one-day internationals for Pakistan

Residents In Flood Zone Are Worn Out Physically, Emotionally
09/16/11 5:30PM By Nancy Eve Cohen
| Download MP3
(Host) Nearly three weeks after Irene hit, people in some areas have been living without phone service. Their roads are impassable roads and the landscape is still scarred.
VPR's Nancy Cohen reports that some residents are worn out physically - and emotionally.(Cohen) The Rock River in South Newfane flows through the backyard of Maureen Albert-Piascik. She says when Irene hit, the river started to crest and she evacuated.
(Albert-Piascik) "It just went up so fast. The river was so high the next thing I knew my house was surrounded by water."
(Cohen) Her house survived. But a neighbor's ranch slipped into the river. All that's left of it is a railing. Albert-Piascik says she feels guilty for complaining. But her backyard is washed away, she can smell mold coming from her basement, she lost her furnace and has no hot water.
(Albert-Piascik) "It has been devastating. I mean I cry every day. But I do feel better when I see how much work they've done on roads and the river. But just thinking about my own property its hard."
(Cohen) Albert Piascik serves as the treasurer of Newfane. She and her colleagues are not only dealing with their own losses, but those faced by the town.
Administrative Assistant Shannon Meckle is in charge of calculating how much is being spent to repair roads in Newfane so some of it will be paid for by FEMA
(Meckle) "How many loads of gravel. How many culverts were put back in for each load of material. Some of that will be reimbursable. But they make us keep very careful track."
(Cohen) Since the storm hit, Meckle's been putting in extra hours. And at home the roads are so bad it takes so long to drive her daughter to the school carpool, the 13-year-old girl is staying with her Dad, 45 minutes away.
(Meckle) "I miss her terribly and she misses me. She would also watch my younger boys. After school, they miss her. And she's having a hard time as well."
(Cohen) Meckle's husband, a truck driver, is gone six days a week. She used to call him every night. But now her phone doesn't work.
(Meckle) "I took for granted I could just pick up the phone and say, 'We miss you!' And now I can't do that. Our children can't say goodnight to their dad without us having to get in a car and drive somewhere to do that. And that was our way of staying very connected. And that's gone."
(Cohen) She can't call her Father either, a recent widower.
Some people say it's hard even to ask for help. So they don't.
Peggy Tiffany, a business consultant from Marlboro, goes to the Wiliamsville Grange to get access to the Internet. And until now she's had to bicycle more than a mile to get there.
(Tiffany) "If I come to Williamsville Grange, they have Internet but I can't use my cell phone here. So then I have to go into town where I can use both and it's hard to find a private place."
(Cohen) Tiffany hasn't been able to drive into her house. Her trash is piling up. Her propane tank is on zero. And she's been bicycling groceries back and forth. And she doesn't like to hear the Marlboro Branch Brook near her house anymore
(Tiffany) "Most of the time it was whispering, shushing. That put you to sleep. Very relaxing. And now I just don't like the sound of it."
(Cohen) Tiffany says the day Irene hit, huge white pines behind her house popped out of their roots, shooting into the air. Boulders churned like thunder. She wonders what will happen in the spring.
(Tiffany) "Is the river going to come this high again? Am I going to be safe?"
(Cohen) Tom Fusco, the owner of Alcan Power Equipment has been key to people, like Tiffany, who haven't been able to drive
(Fusco) "This has been like a command post. 'Cuz we were stranded for 10 or 12 days there. No one could get in or out. So we parked the cars here. We pick up rubbish here. We leave notices. Whatever needs to be."
(Cohen) Fusco's all-terrain vehicles have been ferrying people. But his business has been without a phone, Internet and no trucks have been able to deliver. Outside near the Branch Brook, Fusco predicts that in the winter, the roads will be rough, along with the local economy.
(Fusco) "We'll just have to see how we make out. The main thing all our friends neighbors are OK."
(Cohen) People in this area have survived, in part because they've been looking out for each other. But there are emotional wounds that are still raw.For VPR News, I'm Nancy Cohen


text: Just putting together a beginning wardrobe. For the past, eh, 35 years or so, I just wore "whatever" - and never cared about "style" and certainly not quality. Clean and neat and quiet were all I strove for. But I have a special occasion coming up, and thought I would finally Be An Adult, and I have found the journey so far fun and entertaining. Keep all that in mind when I ask these very simple questions: 1. I need some neckties. Where can I look for some good quality items? As a starting point, although the are a "novelty" perhaps, the Josh Bach ties - I have one - are, I think, nice. USA made, all silk, and about $50. A tie, for me, is a "LOOK" item only, in that there is no comfort involved. Expensive shoes feel great. Expensive ties feel the same as cheap ones when they're around my neck! So I don't really see the point in spending 100 or 200 dollars on a tie. Or am I missing something? I have ties I've been wearing for over 20 years, and they haven't worn out, or fell apart, or even faded (much). And they were likely 20$ at Sears. So - please - educate me on neckties, and what makes one GOOD. 2. I need a belt or two. I got some nice trousers at Brooks Brothers - but, like the tie, I cannot stomach spending $150 on a belt, when the one I've been using for as long as I can remember was likely a KMart special. It has not fallen apart or otherwise been a weak link EXCEPT on appearance (perhaps...perhaps...). Where can I look for a belt and how much should I spend? And why? 3. A point about both items, and maybe you can all provide an amusing response. My "style sense," of which I have very little, does not like the diagonal stripes on ties, big stripes, little strips, any color - I do not like that design. I realize it is quite popular, but I do not get the appeal, not of that OR of the little "ameobae" on ties. Is there something wrong with me?? For the belts - my present belt, on the buckle - the buckle is, for lack of a better word, covered or coated. It is not shiny metal. I do not like the shiny metal buckle on ANY belt, but it's very difficult to find one with an understated buckle. Is it asking to much to powder-coat a few, at least? Or - again - I ask, what's wrong with me? I await your direction...but in all seriousness, thanks much for any advice.

The colic of enteritis is in some cases caused by the nature of the food, giving rise to laminitis.
The Vet says the horse has laminitis in his off fore foot, but it's all my eye.
When the subject is caused to walk, symptoms of excruciating pain are manifested in all acute cases of laminitis.
This particular animal had laminitis restricted to the hind-feet.
Furthermore, in laminitis there is an elevation of the temperature, an almost invariable indication for aconitin.
The prognosis in laminitis should, in our opinion, always be guarded.
Likewise, as has been stated, injury such as is occasioned by long continued standing on the same foot is followed by laminitis.
The condition occurs, for instance, in bad attacks of laminitis.
In this particular instance it is demonstrated by the laminitis and lymphangitis of the previously sound limb.
And so it is, but it is a laminitis brought about by pyæmia.
laminitis lam·i·ni·tis (lām'ə-nī'tĭs)
Inflammation of a lamina. Also called founder1.

Melbourne kept their NBL finals dream alive and crushed Cairns' hopes with a thrilling 66-64 away win on Friday night.
The game was in the balance in the final quarter, with red-hot Chris Goulding (25 points) making the crucial basket.
He got his chance after a cruel offensive foul on Alex Loughton was called just as the Taipans were mounting a play to win the game.
With star Jonny Flynn injured on the sidelines, Goulding was outstanding for the Tigers, continually blowing past the Cairns defence to the hoop.
Their efforts on the boards were also crucial, leading offensive boards 14-3 at the final break.
While Goulding was able to silence the 5000 devoted home fans with that skill, it looked like Cairns may slide away victorious despite his heroics.
Cam Tragardh (11 points) and Shane Edwards (15 points) gave Cairns a bright start, two massive jams from Edwards the highlight of an otherwise grinding first half.
Starting the final term down two, Cairns pushed ahead thanks to triples from Loughton (15 points) and Aaron Grabau.
When Grabau dived for a crucial loose-ball get, the noise levels increased and it looked like the Taipans would ride it home.
But Goulding capped off a night of brilliant one-on-one moves with yet another drive to the basket the Cairns' defence had no answer for, and the Melbourne's defence held firm on the final play.

QUESTION: We have a hummingbird feeder hanging from a tree limb. These little critters fly through the tree limbs at a high rate of speed, without hitting any. I understand that bats have some kind of bat sonar they use to avoid colliding with anything. But what do these birds use to keep from running into things?
– Dave Hawkins
ANSWER: Hummingbirds have a unique set of anatomical and physiological adaptations that enable particularly complex and rapid flight maneuvers, including the capacity to hover in place better than any other bird.
In general, birds' deft avoidance of obstacles during flight is facilitated by their eyes' high flicker fusion frequency – the frequency below which individual movements can be resolved. With a high flicker fusion frequency, objects in the surroundings remain distinct instead of blurring together during flight.
Hovering to lap nectar from flowers or a feeder requires another visual adaptation to stabilize flight. Stabilization relies on the optokinetic response – a visual reflex to motion across the retina, in which head, eye or body movements are made in the direction of motion. It links eye and environment to establish a stable base for the execution of behaviors.
The optokinetic response is not unique to hummingbirds, or even birds in general. However, in hummingbirds, a brain region critical for controlling this response (with a name larger than a hummingbird), the pretectal nucleus lentiformis mesencephali (LM), is considerably larger relative to total brain size than in other birds. The enlarged LM may also facilitate hummingbirds'unusual ability to fly backward, because some of the nerve cells in the LM respond exclusively to reverse motion.
In addition to neural adaptations, hummingbirds have a very high metabolic rate, a large heart and modified wing bones and musculature. As a result, hummingbirds can beat their wings faster than other birds and produce force on both the up and down strokes.
Although hummingbirds do not use echolocation (animal sonar) like bats, there are birds that echolocate, the Oilbird and the Swiftlets. They use echolocation primarily for entering and exiting dimly lit caves where they have their roosting sites. When hunting outside the caves, they rely on vision.
In contrast, insectivorous bats use echolocation to home in on their tiny prey. Echolocating birds can only avoid obstacles greater than about one-quarter inch in diameter, but bats can avoid wires finer than a human hair. In other words, that old rumor about bats getting trapped in your 'do should go the way of the mullet.

Lake Iliamna, Alaska — Rick Halford is a Manifest Destiny kind of Alaskan. He cleared his land with dynamite. He calls himself the "ideal redneck Republican." As a longtime leader in the state legislature, he never met a hard rock mine he didn't like.
That is, until he took a long look at the proposed Pebble Mine in southwest Alaska. It's a phenomenal prospect, the biggest and richest in North America. But to dig a mine there is to make a Faustian bargain that involves an agonizing Alaskan twist.
In return for copper and gold worth an estimated half a trillion dollars, state and federal regulators risk poisoning what scientists describe as the last best place on earth for millions of wild salmon – and the risk from toxic mine waste would last forever.
"If God were testing us, he couldn't have found a more challenging place," said Halford, who helped write Alaska's industry-friendly mining laws when he was president of the state senate and in the past two years has worked as a part-time paid consultant to environmental and Native groups that oppose the mine.*
Global mining giant Anglo-American and its Canadian partner, Northern Dynasty, want to dig one of the world's largest open-pit mines — up to three miles wide and thousands of feet deep. They want to do it in the near-pristine watershed of Bristol Bay, home to the world's largest sockeye salmon fishery.....
Scientists who have studied the long-term biological consequences of hard rock mining are dumbstruck by the prospect of an open-pit mine in an ecosystem where each summer 30 to 40 million salmon return from the Pacific – and where commercial and sport fishermen catch half of them without reducing the historic abundance of fish.
"It is essentially a goose laying golden eggs," said Tom Quinn, a University of Washington fish biologist who has studied and camped in the watershed for 25 years.
Elsewhere in North America and across the world, when major mining development has occurred in proximity to a salmon or trout watershed, there has been a consistent pattern of pollution that erodes the health of fish or kills them outright.... After mines foul streams and rivers.... Fish biologists say that the damage usually turns out to be irreversible given the persistent toxicity of the pollutants, the chronic lack of government money for remediation and the history of mining companies in ducking cleanup obligations.....
North of Bristol Bay, tens of millions of juvenile sockeye come of age each year in a vast salmon incubator called Lake Iliamna. Nearly 80 miles long and up to 22 miles wide, it is the largest undeveloped lake in the United States. It also happens to be about 15 miles downstream via Upper Talarik Creek from the proposed Pebble Mine – a geographic happenstance that mortifies fish biologists.
"If you were to pick the worst place in the world from the point of view of salmon to have an activity like [an open-pit copper mine], this would be right exactly where they've got it," said Quinn, the fisheries biologist from the University of Washington. "If Iliamna isn't the strongest of the [salmon] strongholds, nothing is."
In its assessment of open-pit mining at the site, the EPA said there is a risk that during the expected life of the mine, some contaminates – including dissolved copper — could wash into Lake Iliamna from pipeline breaks or the failure of water treatment systems. These accidents have occurred at other similar mines in the past, the EPA said.
Scientists have known for a century that copper is toxic to salmon. But recent research has found strong evidence that even very low levels of copper can have disastrous effects.....
There are other less risky sites in the American West, South Africa and South America for large copper mines. Cohen said that these sites, while they may not be as large or as profitable as Pebble, could produce enough copper to meet global need without endangering a world-class fishery....
Rick Halford wrote some of these regulations back in the 1980s, when he was a Republican leader in the state Senate. They require mining companies to pay salaries and overhead costs at the Alaska Department of Natural Resources when state employees process mine permits. Under these rules, no major mine has been turned down by the state.
The regulations have saved money and encouraged small- and medium-sized mine operations, Halford says. But he now believes the rules undermine the state's ability to evaluate a multi-billion-dollar project like Pebble.
"States are too close to the short-term jobs," Halford said. "It's difficult for the state to say no."
Like many conservative Alaskans, Halford hates it when the federal government, particularly the EPA, intrudes in state business. Still, as much as he would like to see more mining, more high-paying jobs and more economic activity in Alaska, the scope of Pebble – and its forever risk – have convinced him that any decision about the mine's future should be made at the national level.
"The real hope of stopping this development is the national conscience," he said.

Should some discussion be made that Cobalt Diselenide is incorrect chemical nomenclature? A combound of cobalt and selenium would be Cobalt Selenide. Selenide has a -2 charge, so it would probably be CoS or Cobalt (II) selenide. Cobalt "Diselenide), implying 2 selinide atoms, would be called "Cobalt (IV) Selenide". --<unsigned>
- Star Trek is so full of chemical nomenclature errors (Dilithium) that it probably is not worth noting them all. --OuroborosCobra talk 19:10, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
- Apparently it isn't so terrible nomenclature [1]. --OuroborosCobra talk 06:32, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
