Charles Arthur John Robert Brunton 1891
Hi, Brunton Clan.My father, Gordon Charles Brunton, celebrates his 80th on Dec. 27th and I have been "commissioned" by the family to research the family tree in honour of the occasion.Here's what I know and any help would be very much appreciated:
His father:Charles Arthur John Robert Brunton - dob August 1891.Married Hilda (Hylda?) Pritchard in 1920.
Born in Erith, Kent, she was the youngest of 10 as follows:
Hilda and Charles divorced in 1926 (virtually unheard of in those days and hence the split family and sketchy info.)
Charles re-married a Molly Darlington and they had one daughter, Jean Patricia Brunton, born in 1931 and tragically killed in a road accident 1948.
Charles Arthur had one sister, Dorothy.
He died abt. 1962.
His father was Charles Henry Brunton.
His mother's christian name was Mary Jane.
I am new to this and quite overwhelmed by the whole project . . . not to mention the fact that I now live in Vancouver, Canada and am doing this "long-distance" since all above-mentioned originated in UK and/or Scotland.
Thanks in advance for any help or information whatsoever.Hopefully, when I head over to UK for the big event I'll have something to show for my efforts.
Alison B-I
Vancouver, Canada.

Dear Jeffco commissioners:
I hadn't heard from you recently, so I wanted to write and see how things were going. Our attorney was on the phone the other day, and he also asked after the three of you.
Specifically, we're wondering about the letter we sent you on Monday, July 27 — the one pointing out that your discussion of public business via e-mail was a clear violation of Colorado law.
All good things come to an end, and for me, the time has come to leave the Columbine Courier.
I came to South Jeffco in September 2007 knowing virtually nothing about the area, outside of having visited Chatfield Reservoir as a child and watching the Columbine High School tragedy unfold while I was a junior at Eaglecrest High School in Aurora. I came here from Sterling for the chance to work in the Denver area, and had no idea how much I'd grow to appreciate this place.
I have a confession: I am an unapologetic coffee snob.
Flipping the little red switch on my coffee maker to brew organic, shade-grown, fair-trade, dark roast is the first thing I do every morning, without fail.
I like it strong, uncorrupted by the likes of cream and sugar, which cover up the gentle bitterness and delicious, earthy undertones that follow every sip.
For me, nothing goes with my morning joe, with one exception. For that ingredient I stumble out my front door and begin the search for the reliable oblong bag hiding somewhere on my deck.
I've had my share of senior moments the last week, more of them unforgettable than forgetful.
No single piece of mail can more brutally deliver mortality's sharp stick in the eye than the dreaded AARP membership packet, and my own little reminder of the five-decade milestone came when seniors and their concerns were uppermost on my mind.
The bloom of term limits in Colorado seems to be off the rose.
Hannah Hayes
When Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist who directed the Manhattan Project, witnessed the first atomic explosion, he quoted a line from the Bhagavad-Gita, "I am become Death, the shatterer of worlds." The military smiled, and the rest of us started worrying.
Emily's List, an organization that was formed to support the election of pro-choice Democratic women, is named based upon what has become an increasingly true idiom of political campaigns. Emily stands for "Early money is like yeast." Candidates' ability to raise funds in the early stages of campaigns has something to do with how they will use that money in their campaigns, but has much more do to with how their campaigns are viewed by others.

Perth Festival: Situation Rooms and Bianco - review
Alison Croggon
With the skill of journalists and the subtlety of great theatre makers, Rimini Protokoll shows us the pervasiveness of the arms industry, while across town at Perth Festivals Big Top Nofit State Circus performers transform standard circus acts into moments of passionate lyricism in Bianco.
Photographer: Jorg Baumann.
The Situation Room is one of the most famous news photographs of recent times. Pete Souza caught US President Barack Obama and his national security team squeezed into a claustrophobic room in the White House, where they monitored the capture and grisly killing of Public Enemy No. 1, Osama Bin Laden. Its a compelling photograph, not only because of its subject, but because it captured so dramatically the peculiar alienation of contemporary existence.
Some of the most powerful people in the world were following a mission which was taking place thousands of miles away. They had ordered the action and now, via drones and live cams, they could watch it in real time. Its an image that is almost iconic in its banality. Anyone with a smart phone or a television or a computer does something similar every day; we might not be heading a military mission, but through the mediation of technology we interact with and influence remote realities every day. The apparent boundaries between the virtual and the real, appearance and action, are more and more illusory.
That nagging sense of familiarity is one of the more disturbing effects you take from Rimini Protokolls Situations Rooms, a fascinating interactive installation which looks at the impact of the global armaments industry. Rimini Protokoll, the brainchild of German author/directors Helgard Haug, Stefan Kaegi and Daniel Wetzel, create their acclaimed reality theatre using the resources of theatre, film and sound to open perspectives on contemporary realities. As Situation Rooms demonstrates, their genius lies in how they intricately structure the media in which they work, in order to open the human complexities of the realities they wish us to investigate. Their theatre is detailed, intelligent and lucid, and focuses always on the interface between individual human beings and the globalised abstractions of economics, trade, politics and war.
Situation Rooms is a labyrinth of different chambers, in which 20 participants experience the stories of people who, in different ways, are affected by the arms industry. We are given headphones and a tablet on a stick, which is our guide. There are 11 different doors, through which the audience variously enters, so that each of us experiences the installation differently. In all, the stories represent 20 interviews, but each audience member encounters only 10. As we negotiate the labyrinth we become aware of other stories we dont experience, and this sense of incompletion, of further realities glimpsed around a corner, intensifies its complexity.
The concept is very like a video game, with icons on the screen telling us whether to sit down, or to pick up a bulletproof jacket, or to hoist a flag; except that in this case, the rooms constructed around us match the rooms pictured on our tablets. The screen reality bleeds into our physical realities: instead of pressing a button, we have to open that locker, measure that object, pick up that bullet, put on that coat. And the other participants become characters in our particular ballet: we spoon out borscht to feed them, or greet them as our teacher.
The stories, like the rooms, are various: a German peace activist; a child soldier in Africa; a canteen worker in an arms factory; a sports shooter; a member of the Israeli army; a German MP campaigning against the arms trade; a French arms manufacturer; a hacker. There are moments that are strangely meditative: sitting on some back steps contemplating a city landscape over a balcony, for example. Its as if, as the hacker suggests, our bodies are briefly taken over, willingly enacting other lives, other existences.
The show requires a ferocious concentration, which I found somehow drove the realities home, rather than distracting from them. You walk out with some unexpected memories: sand lodged in your shoe from a shooting range, the taste of soup, the shy recognition in a strangers eyes as we greet each other, each of us being someone other than we are. And most of all, a distressing, almost suffocating sense of the pervasiveness of the arms industry, how it reaches into the most intimate details of lives and communities. And, in many cases, ends them.
After the bleak realities of Rimini Protokoll, maybe I was ready for the nostalgia and straight-up romanticism of Cardiff-based Nofit State Circuss Bianco, held under the Big Top at Ozone Reserve. This promenade show requires the audience to be upstanding for its two-hour duration. The fact that I didnt notice my aching feet until the end says everything you need to know.
The costumes and design recall the circus that the modernists loved so much, the intimate spectacle that suddenly transcends itself to become an image of flight or dream, an expression of human possibility. Theres a touch of Edwardian steampunk here, a glimpse of lace or leather there, long coats, fedoras, flowers, tattooed skin. Director Firenza Guidi uses the music, played live by a four piece band, to drive the show. The band plays a kind of retro Euro-rock that shamelessly manipulates your emotions and which, nevertheless, seems wholly apt.
Bianco has all the traditional circus acts spectacular aerial work with trapeze and ropes, rings, acrobatics, juggling. Theres nothing particularly innovative about the circus itself, but these standard acts are transformed by the passionate lyricism of the performers. Among the highlights are Hugo Oliveras intimate and witty juggling act, one of the best Ive seen, and Ariele Ebachers tighrope act, in which she flirts with the devil in sunglasses and red high heels.
The set consist of a number of stripped-down metal scaffoldings which are constantly moved, along with the audience, to create different spaces for performance. I found myself as fascinated by the machinery as the acts themselves: the performers who run up and down ladders as counterweights for the aerial acts, the clipping of safety harnesses, the ratcheting up of steel cables. At one moment youre aware of the artists as workers, skilfully building the set; in the next, youre caught up in a moment of thrilling grace, in which bodies become fantasies of flight or desire or loss. Its circus as raw grace, in which virtuosity is not an end in itself, but a means for exhilarating emotional epiphany.
Bianco runs February 11 - March 1 at the Big Top on Ozone Reserve, Situation Rooms runs 8 23 Feb at the ABC Studios in East Perth as part of Perth Festival 2014.

The Red Wings had the day off on Thursday, and will open up a four-game set with Toledo on Friday. The Wings have not yet announced a starter for the game on Friday, but whoever it is, they will be faced by Virgil Vasquez (2-2, 3.48). First pitch is slated for 7:00pm ET. The Wings are currently 9-3 through their first 12 games of the season, and have a 0.5 game lead over Buffalo for first place in the International League North Division. The team has won five straight games.
New Britain Rock Cats
Down 8-7 in the bottom of the ninth, the Rock Cats scored four times, including a three-run homerun walk-off home run by second baseman Luke Hughes, sealing a 11-8 victory. It was their third comeback victory in their last four games. Nick Blackburn got the start for the Rock Cats, allowing five runs (two earned) in only 4.2 innings of work. The young right-hander has yet to go more than five innings this season, and his three walks on Thursday were a season-high. Jay Sawatski was dominant in relief, tossing 2.1 innings of no-hit ball. Sawatski was coming off two sub-par outings, where he allowed a combined five earned runs in only 3.1 innings of relief. Brian Forystek was the final hurler of the night for New Britain, and although he blew the save, he picked up his first win of the season. For the second straight time in a save opportunity, Forystek allowed three earned runs, and blowing a save.
Shortstop Trevor Plouffe is off to the hot start that TCD predicted, and on Thursday he had another big day at the plate. Plouffe stroked four hits, including his third home run of the season, scored twice, and drove in two. It was his sixth multi-hit game this season, and he is now six for his last ten. Luke Hughes played the part of hero on Thursday, as his walk-off home run sealed the deal for the Cats. Hughes had two hits in the game, scoring twice, and although he has only appeared in seven games, he has now hit safely in six of them. Matt Allegra had two hits as well, raising his batting average above .200. Gil Velazquez had three hits, including a home run, and raised his average from .188 to .300.
Fort Myers Miracle
It was a day to forget for the Miracle, who were shutout in both games of a double header against Dunedin, 4-0 and 3-0 respectively. Both games were of the seven-inning variety, with top prospect Jay Rainville getting the start in the opener. Rainville had been one of the hotter pitchers in the organization coming into Thursday, but he struggled with his command in the loss. He walked three in only 3.2 innings of work, allowing four earned runs on five hits. It was his third loss of the season. Joshua Hill pitched great in relief, handcuffing the Blue Jays through 2.1 innings, while allowing only one hit. Hill has looked good through his last three outings, allowing only one earned run combined in 4.1 innings of relief.
No offense to speak of in game one, except for Whitney Robbins, who had two hits in the game. The Miracle mustered only three hits total, with Erik Lis getting the other knock for the Myers. The hits were the first for Robbins in the last four games, and Lis' hit extended his personal hitting streak to nine games.
In the nightcap, the Miracle got a decent outing from Yohan Pino, who was making his first start of the year. Pino worked 4.0 innings, allowing two earned runs, while striking out five. Previously, Pino had yet to allow an earned run through five relief appearances. Kyle Aselton was the only other pitcher for Fort Myers in the game, and he pitched well also, tossing 2.0 innings of one-run ball. His only mistake was a home run ball to Billy Butler in the fifth inning. Aselton has allowed earned runs in only two of his appearances, though he has allowed home runs in both of those leading to the runs.
The Miracle wrapped seven hits in game two, but left seven on base, as Dwayne White and Eli Tintor both had two-hit nights. White has come on as of late, posting multi-hit games in three of his last four starts. In that time, he has raised his average from .254 to .276. He has struck out only once in that span. Tintor has now hit safely in three of his last four starts, as he tries to get himself above the dreaded Mendoza Line. In the last three games, he has brought his average from a measly .133 to a much better .188. Lis went 0-2 in the night cap, ending his nine-game hit streak. Jeff Christy got a hit, extending his hit streak to five games, and Juan Portes picked up his first hit in three games.
Beloit Snappers
After falling behind 2-0 in the first inning, the Snappers scored four unanswered runs, leading to a 4-2 victory over Dayton on Friday. Alex Burnett was tremendous on the hill for the Snappers, as he picked up his first win of the season. Entering the game with the second highest ERA on the team, Burnett tossed eight stellar innings, allowing only two earned runs on four hits along the way. He also struck out five. Dan Leatherman picked up his second save of the season, allowing one hit in his only inning of relief. Leatherman has now allowed earned runs in only one of his six appearances this season. He also nailed down his second save in as many opportunities.
Sure they struck out nine times and left 14 runners on base, but the Snappers doubled the amount of hits the Dragons put up (10-5), and got another good game from first baseman Johnny Woodard. Woodard stroked two hits, upping his average to .310 on the year, and could be finally playing up to his potential. He has had multi-hit games in three of his last four outings, and has doubled in four of his last six games. Danny Santiesteban hit his second home run of the season, a two-run jack that tied the game up in the fifth. Santiesteban also recorded an outfield assist, throwing Justin Turner out at second base. Danny Valencia, who has hit everything this season, stroked two more doubles, bumping his average up to a robust .365. Valencia has hit safely in every game but two in 2007, including seven multi-hit games.

I wanted to read a romance written by a man. Mr Bick has provided me with one that is touching. It gives pause for thought for all those moments, words, declarations that we have put aside to do later. I am, nevertheless, of the opinion that actions speak louder than words. Read and you will see.

TVIX Chaos Prompts Concerns Over Who's Next
The TVIX drama over the last month has prompted a slew of questions whether any other products could suffer a similar fate. It may be too early to tell, but a look at how some funds are trading compared to their net asset values may be a telling sign.
To recap, a few weeks back TVIX, an exchange traded note, had been trading at a hefty premium to its intrinsic value ever since Credit Suisse in February stopped issuing new shares. Still some investors continued snapping up shares of the leveraged volatility product. That drove the price up even as the VIX fell. Ultimately the gap between the share price and its net asset value widened.
At some points, TVIX was actually 89% higher than its net asset value. So when shares eventually reopened, the price plunged.
One question is whether TVIX's meltdown is an isolated incident. GAZ, another product that had been trading well above its intrinsic value, fell amid the TVIX turmoil. And this wasn't the first time, traders say.
According to Birinyi Associates, there are 22 other exchange traded products that are currently more than 5% away from their net asset values. The major caveat is that unlike TVIX, which approached $700 million in assets, the ETN's on Birinyi's list are for the most part teeny, tiny little funds. Even GAZ, for all the attention it's garnered, is now just $34 million.
However, that doesn't mean it's not a list worth watching. Here's Birinyi's list:

Christie Rep Clarifies Campaign Teacher Incident
A representative for Governor Christie say says the woman who asked him about education spending during a campaign stop in Somers Point on Saturday is misrepresenting the tone of their conversation.
Melissa Tomlinson, a teacher in the Buena public schools and a member of the Badass Teachers Association (BAT) says she asked the governor during a stop in Somers Point, "Why are you portraying our schools as failure factories?" according to the Star Ledger account of the encounter.
Christie, who was about to get on his campaign bus, turned around and snapped, "What do you want? I'm tired of you people."
Tomlinson told the Record, "I was shaking by the time we got done. I was stunned. The crowd cheered him on, all of his supporters, and I basically ran for the parking lot."
Maria Comella, a spokesman for the governor, responded to the incident, news of which spread quickly on social network sites on Sunday. "They were having a discussion about the (education) funding levels and the governor said that no matter how much money we spend, it will never be enough for you people," Comella explained to the Star Ledger. She denies the governor said he is "tired of you people."
"He was explaining how much money we've increased education by," spokeswoman Maria Comella said Sunday. She told the Bergen Record, "He wasn't yelling."
Democrat challenger Senator Barbara Buono jumped on the comments in Teaneck on Sunday after the candidates spent the weekend indirectly trading barbs at each other. "I think it's very interesting that the governor is calling me angry, when in fact he went ballistic on a teacher yesterday, reverted to his true form, going ballistic on a teacher when she asked him a simple question,"said Buono.
Christie claimed Buono is running an "angry" campaign while she the incumbent is "sore" over the allegations made about him in Double Down, the upcoming book about the 2012 presidential campaign.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/6/2014 (1131 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A Winnipeg small business incubator is in the running for a substantial funding boost that will let it expand its physical space, hire more executive support staff and help more young companies gain a strategic advantage.
It was announced this morning that Manitoba Technology Accelerator (MTA) (formerly called Biomedical Commercialization Canada) is one of the 15 organizations across the country that have been chosen to advance in the selection process under the federal government's Canada Accelerator and Incubator Program (CAIP).
The federal government has budgeted $100 million over five years to support these organizations.
Marshall Ring, the chief executive officer of the MTA said, "We are really pleased to have progressed to this stage of the process. The integration into an emerging national network of high performing incubators and accelerators can only provide more opportunities for our client companies".
The MTA helps promising technology start-ups go from the "good idea" stage into a potentially "investable business".
Located in Winnipeg's Innovation Alley in the West Exchange District, MTA is currently providing mentoring, financial and investment support and office space for such promising young companies as Skip the Dishes — a high tech firm that manages delivery services for hundreds of restaurants across the country — and Advolve Media — a new digital imaging technology that uses mirrors as the medium for the image projection.

WASHINGTON, March 23 (JTA) — Since the gates of the Soviet Union opened up a decade ago, more than 1,000 Jews have traveled halfway around the globe to settle in the shadow of Arizona"s desert. But now few Jews are coming, and the Tucson, Ariz., Jewish community has embarked on a radical experiment — opening its doors to non-Jews fleeing persecution. It"s not only the right thing to do, community activists say, it"s the only way to keep the program strong enough to provide a full range of services for those Jews who have arrived in recent years. But for all the good intentions to embrace non-Jews, there was a last- minute surprise: When the Knezevic family arrived from Bosnia, they asked to go to synagogue. Unbeknownst to the U.S. government and Jewish agencies who had arranged for them to flee their war-torn region, the Knezevics are Jewish. "We all kind of looked at each other and were inspired," said Wendy Asher, director of refugee resettlement for the Tucson Jewish community. "When you do the right thing, the right thing happens." Earlier this month, Tucson once again opened its doors to a family of refugees fleeing persecution. This time there were no surprises, and the local community is now involved in resettling a non-Jewish family of two parents and seven children fleeing from Ethiopia. It has been 10 years since the Soviet Union answered cries of "Let my people go," unleashing a huge wave of Jewish emigration. Since that time, Israel has absorbed the vast majority of these immigrants — 750,000. And the United States — in partnership with local American Jewish communities — opened its doors to the largest number of Jewish refugees since the aftermath of World War II. Through a combination of U.S. government grants and communal funding, the American Jewish community has helped to resettle more than 250,000 Jews since 1989 by providing a battery of services, including language classes, vocational training and child care. The resettlement effort is widely respected as one of the greatest accomplishments of American Jewry. But now the number of Jews arriving in America from the former Soviet Union is way down. In 1992, the peak year of resettlement, 47,000 Jewish refugees were resettled in communities around the country. This year, in contrast, 5,000 to 7,000 refugees are expected. Largely as a matter of economics, this dramatic shift is forcing local Jewish communities to confront difficult questions: * Should they stop supporting new arrivals altogether or continue resettling a trickle of family members? * Should small communities shut down their programs completely and let the big cities shoulder the responsibility? * Has the time come to retool the Jewish organizational bureaucracy that has ballooned with the growth in programming? * Or should local communities, following Tucson"s example, add non-Jews to their rolls of clients? On the national level, too, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, the pre-eminent Jewish organization involved in resettling Jewish refugees, has been forced to re-examine its program and make significant changes. Concerned about sustaining the level of services for new immigrants, for example, HIAS recently announced plans to provide up to $1 million from its endowment to help local communities. The questions for local communities loom even as a new wave of anti-Semitism spreads across Russia in the wake of an economic crisis. Just last week, the federation in Stamford, Conn., decided to end its resettlement program. Leonard Glickman, executive vice president of HIAS, said that given the current situation in Russia, it is "particularly difficult" for communities to make the kind of decision Stamford just made. Still, despite the resurgence of anti-Semitism, Jews in the former Soviet Union are not preparing for another mass exodus. The diminishing number of potential immigrants has been predicted for some time. "It"s not like anyone is surprised. Every refugee migration flow goes through this kind of process," said Joel Carp, senior vice president of community services and government relations at the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Chicago. "The refugee service system has always been an accordion," said Carp, whose community resettles the largest number of Jews from the former Soviet Union after New York and San Francisco. "It may not be the fun and glory that it used to be but that does not mean it"s any less important," he said. Like most communities, Chicago has been planning for years to accommodate the changes. Faced with the loss of federal funds, the federation has turned to state and local governments as well as private foundations to help subsidize programs such as health care and citizenship classes, Carp said. Unlike smaller cities such as Tucson, Chicago, as a major immigration center, has resettled non-Jews for years at the federal government"s request. But Jewish refugees receive the bulk of services from Jewish communities, and these communities, small and large, are being forced to make changes. The changes, in large measure, are due to the simple math involved in resettling new immigrants. Under legislation negotiated by Jewish activists that dates back to the 1980s, the U.S. government and the Jewish community share the costs of resettling new refugees under a matching grant program. "The money flows on a per capita basis: the fewer people, the fewer dollars," said Mark Handelman, executive vice president of NYANA, the New York Association for New Americans. In 1994, $46 million in federal funds helped pay for the resettlement of 33,000 refugees in 136 cities. In 1998 about $14 million was provided for some 8,000 refugees in more than 100 cities. While the government has put in its millions, the Jewish community, depending on locations and services offered, has spent more than double, if not triple, that amount of money, officials said. While NYANA is in a unique situation because of its size — it resettles almost half of the Jews from the former Soviet Union — and its national funding from the United Jewish Appeal, it has been forced to cut back, reducing its staff by about 80 percent, Handelman said. NYANA has slashed its budget from $70 million in the early 1990s, when it resettled some 25,000 individuals a year, to $12 million this year, with only 2,700 projected arrivals. Given the fewer resources, the agency is shifting its focus from resettling newcomers to sustaining services for immigrants who already have been here a few years. Stamford has gone even further. The resettlement program "basically shut itself down," said Sheila Romanowitz, executive director of the United Jewish Federation. "There was nobody coming," said Romanowitz, who saw her budget for resettlement plummet from the hundreds of thousands down to about $30,000 a year. HIAS, the national resettlement agency, is facing its own dramatic changes. Budgets have been slashed and staff laid off. HIAS, which has been funded largely through the federal program, is rethinking its methods but not its mission. "For the most part, the services we provide are the same no matter what the number of refugees," said Glickman, whose agency has cut its staff by almost half since 1994. HIAS hopes that through the $1 million in grants it is providing to local communities, "we can ensure that the refugees who arrive this year receive the same quality of service as those of prior years," said HIAS President Neil Greenbaum. Communities that came to rely on federal funds based on the number of refugees they took in are now grappling with new realities. With increasing needs and competing priorities for Jewish dollars, many local Jewish communal officials fear their resettlement programs will be cut even further. Although nearly everyone agrees that "services should not be tied to arrival numbers," the budgets have been, said Ruth Paley, the Jewish community"s resettlement coordinator in Minneapolis. Working in a community that once resettled more than 400 refugees in one year and is now serving fewer than 50, Paley echoed the views of many officials in the trenches who said the key to a successful program is scrambling for grants and new sources of funding. "Where is the money going to come from? How are the needs going to be met?" she asked. "It takes a lot of creative budgeting," Paley said, especially because the reality today is that "resettlement is not a burning issue in the Jewish community.""

Substituted for: Senate Bill No. 3073
By Senator Fowler
AN ACT to establish advance notice procedures relative to the adoption contact veto registry and to amend Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 36, Chapter 1.
SECTION 1. Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 36, Chapter 1, is amended by adding the following as a new part to be appropriately designated:
Section 1. The object of this part is to establish an advance notice system which enables an eligible person to request the department to provide advance notification prior to the release of adoption records, sealed records, sealed adoption records, post-adoption records, or any other records or papers under Tennessee Code Annotated §36-1-127(c) which has information regarding such person in order to give the person requesting advance notification the opportunity to prepare for the release and any impact this might have on the person or the person's family or associates. If the department has received such a request, it shall delay the release of the adoption records, sealed records, sealed adoption records, post-adoption records, or any other records or papers to another person during the advance notice period.
Section 2. In this part,
(1) "Advance notice period" means the fifteen (15) day period from the date of mailing a notice regarding the impending release of adoption records, sealed records, sealed adoption records, post-adoption records, or any other record or papers to a person who has requested that the department provide advance notice prior to releasing said information.
Section 3.
(a) A person is entitled to file a request to be given advance notice before any adoption record, sealed record, sealed adoption record, post-adoption record, or any other records or papers with information regarding said person is released to another person if the person seeking to file the request is otherwise eligible to receive such information pursuant to this part.
(b) An eligible person desiring to place his/her name on the Advance Notice Registry shall notify the department in writing on a form provided by the department, provide satisfactory proof of identity, and pay any necessary fees. The department shall supply the registration form upon request.
Section 4.
(a) The department shall establish and maintain an Advance Notice Registry. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, the Advance Notice Registry shall not be considered part of the post-adoption record or any other record or paper subject to release under Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 36-1-127(c), and the information contained in the Advance Notice Registry shall be confidential.
(b) The Advance Notice Registry shall include, but not be limited to, the following information:

(2) the address given by the person as the mailing address at which any postal contact by the department with the person should be made; and
(3) the date and place of birth of the person filing with the Advance Notice Registry; and
(4) the persons or class of persons affected by the request; and
(5) the advance notice period.
(c) A person whose name is entered in the Advance Notice Registry shall advise the department of any change in his or her address.
Section 5. The department shall announce the existence of the Registry and its service within ninety (90) days of January 1, 1999, through appropriate publicity and media coverage as may be available without cost. The department is authorized to promulgate necessary rules and regulations to facilitate the implementation of this act in accordance with Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 4, Chapter 5, Part 2.
SECTION 2. Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 36-1-141(a)(1), is amended by adding the words and punctuation "for registering requests with the Advance Notice Registry," after the words and punctuation "for registering requests for contact vetoes,".
SECTION 3. This act shall take effect as follows, the public welfare requiring it:
(a) on January 1, 1999, for the purposes of Section 5 of Section 1; and
(b) on July 1, 1999, for the purpose of all remaining sections of this act, or as soon as the appropriate mechanisms are in place.

Abstract or Description
Several recent developments in scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) of semiconductor surfaces are reviewed. First, the normalization of spectra is discussed, which for the Si(111)2x1 surface is found to produce a small shift in the apparent position of band edges. With this correction, the surface band gap measured by STS is found to be in good agreement with that obtained by other experimental and theoretical techniques. Second, it is shown for the SiC(0001) root(3) x root(3) surface that the tunneling spectra show a remarkable evolution with decreasing current, and at pA levels they reveal a Mott-Hubbard gap for the surface states, in agreement with that seen by other methods. Finally, a detailed discussion is presented on the absence of electronic effects for the tunnel current into empty states of III-V (110) cleaved surfaces. From this result it is demonstrated that one can use observed strain induced displacements of such surfaces to yield information on the chemical composition of the underlying material.

Since the economic downturn in mid-2007, Domino's has cooked up a total shareholder return of about 85 per cent. Over that time, the broader market has delivered a -26.8 per cent return.
And herein lies the recipe for success.
When households tightened up discretionary consumption, restaurant numbers suffered, as did the turnover in expensive grocery items. A substitute was cheap pizzas.
"It's incredible value," Domino's chief executive
"We give so much more for so much less."
The company has recently reported a full-year net profit of $17.8 million.
As a result of this success – which includes an average net profit growth of 21 per cent in the past three years – a special one-off dividend of 3.4¢ per share will be paid, bringing the total dividend for the year to 17.8¢.
The company's shares are still relatively expensive.
Analysts covering the stock say the multiple of its price to forecast (2011) earnings is 18.7 times – much higher than that of the broader market.
RBS Morgans analyst Josephine Little estimates that is likely to peg back to about 16 times on fiscal 2012 earnings forecasts.
Domino's still expects rapid growth, wanting to add another 125 stores to its portfolio of 825.
The Domino's experience has not been a flash in the pan. Its success has been mirrored by competitors such as the upmarket Pizza Capers.
Since 2007, Pizza Capers has grown from 25 stores to 84, including a new one in Singapore.
Franchise development manager Damien Davies says the success has no doubt been helped by the financial crisis. "When households tightened their belts they would go and get a DVD and a bottle of wine and start dining in and we are definitely a dine-in experience," he says. "You get a quality meal at half the price you would when you dine out."

GENEVA — Aldermen agreed Monday to refer a proposed ordinance to increase the fair market value of an acre of land in the city for development purposes to the Plan Commission for public hearing. Developers of new residential subdivisions are required to donate cash or land to the school districtand the Park District for building new schools and parks to accommodate the subdivision's additional residents.
In 2001, the City Council increased the fair market value of an acre of land for school and park land donation purposes from to $117,000 from $79,000. It now proposes to increase the value to $130,000, based on cost-of-living increases over the period.

Dolphins vs Jacksonville game Summary
Grading the Dolphins
QB Tannehill was very good. It helps when you are playing against the Jaguars... He was 22 of 28 for 220 yards and 2 TDs and his receivers dropped some of those 6 incompletions including one that Hartline should have scored on. Tannehill also rushed 8 times for 53 yards including a season long 30 yard run. Bad turnover on the sack/strip/fumble though A-
RB Bush ran the ball well and ended up with 21 rushes for 104 yards including a 53 yarder. He did miss on some runs taking it to the outside and ending up with negative plays instead of running it up inside. Miller added 18 yards on 6 carries and looked solid at times. It sure helps to run against the Jags' 31st ranked rundefense though. B
WR Harline went over 1000 yards for the season but dropped a short TD on a slant throw. He had a decent game (5 for 77 yards) and so did Fasano (6 for 56 yards and a TD). Matthews and Moore played more in place of the injured Bess and ended up with 3 and 2 receptions respectively. The Dolphins WRs is still the achilles heel of this franchise. They still have 3 TDs by WRs all season. To put it in prespective the Jags second year 4th round pick Cecil Shorts has just over 40 receptions (after having only two last year) and 7 TDs that's more than twice the entire Dolphins WRs, and he is no Brandon Marshall. C-
OL Yes, they played well but that wre the Jaguars on the other side, I mean can the Jaguars really beat Notre Dame ? If they play Alabama I'm betting on Nick $atan's guys, really, the Jags are an awful team. B-
LB It looked as if Dansby and Burnett made all the tackled in the game, they were just everywhere. They actually combined for 14 tackles. Great game for them. A-
DL Cam Wake did not have a sack. He will try to break his season best next year (he has a career tieing 14 sacks this season). Odrick added a sack and they played a nice quite game. B+
Secondary The secondary is playing better but then again this was our very own Chad Hene on the other side, Can this really tell us anything ? B
Special teams Another bad game. The fake FG looked horibble. Other than that an ordinary game with nice kickoffs by Carpenter. Brandon Fields did not punt much for the first time in a long while. C-
Coaching They won the easiest game on the schedule. By far, the easiest one. The offense looked better but that was only because they were playing the Jaguars. Did anyone really expect Chad Henne and his 4th string RB put points on Miami's D. I didn't. B+
On the 1st of November, 1970, RB Mercury Morris, gained a Dolphin record of 302 combined yards. He ran 8 times for 89 yards, received 3 balls for 68 yards and returned 6 kicks for 145 yards.

If the Pacers could win out and pass Miami for the second seed.
Isn't happening, and they would put on the effort for a game or two before risking playing Chicago in the second round, but the Pacers are 4.5 games behind, and have a schedule that frankly they are capable of going 6-2 or 7-1, leaving a final record of 42-24 or 43-23. (granted the pacers sometimes lay eggs against weak teams, but we should be heavily favored in all of our upcoming games minus chicago, who are likely to be resting starters having clinched the 1st seed.)
Miami currently sits at 40-17 with games remaining vs. Boston, New York, Chicago, and Houston, teams fighting for much harder than Miami frankly is right now. Unforunately, the Chicago and Houston games are in Miami, but I could see them losing in New York and Boston, and likely 1 more game for a final record of 46-20, possibly only 3 or so games ahead of the Pacers.
Puts how successful we've been/ have the potential to be this season in perspective, and hey, if the heat keep playing like disinterested lazy bums then who knows

Softchoice and En Pointe Technologies are waging a battle against one another as the two VARs compete for the best and brightest employees.
Softchoice added En Pointe to its lawsuits against former employees who went to En Pointe, alleging breach of non-compete clauses, removal of confidential information, and other disagreeable practices that employees unfortunately sometimes do. It seems the biggest thing Softchoice is upset about is that several of their employees jumped ship, and some of them encouraged co-workers to follow them to En Pointe. Now I'm not in a position to know, but I do have to wonder what was going on at Softchoice that so many people wanted to move over to the enemy camp?
En Pointe is fighting back with a lawsuit of its own, alleging that Softchoice is usng anti-competitive clauses in its employment contracts, which restricts peoples' ability to work. The lawsuits point to a much greater issue at hand in what is a highly competitive arena, and that is, should employees of VARs, integrators and other members of the channel have the right to go to work for the competition, or does the employer have the right to restrict what you do after you terminate your employment? Although the employer certainly does have some concerns there, I can also see the employee's point of view. It's been over 15 years since I was somebody's employee, but back then, the general wisdom was that if you didn't want to work for a particular company any more, if you want to stay in the same industry, there often aren't many other options other than working for a competitor.

Madras: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have summoned the five cricketers - Mohammed Azharuddin, Ajay Jadeja, Nayan Mongia, Manoj Prabhakar and Ajay Sharma - ordered the five players to appear before the disciplinary committee in Calcutta on Tuesday.The BCCI said only the concerned players - and no other person including a lawyer - would be allowed to appear before the three-member committee comprising BCCI president Dr A C Muthiah and two vice-presidents, K M Ram Prasad and C K Khanna.The BCCI said the players were free to furnish further explanations and present any documentary evidence they wanted to prove their innocence. The players have been summoned before the disciplinary committee following the report submitted by Special Commissioner K Madhavan to the BCCI chief on Saturday.The BCCI suspended the five players after a match-fixing report by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was made public earlier this month. The BCCI then instituted an internal inquiry headed by former CBI joint director K Madhavan.

Mark Burnett Weighs In On 'The Voice' Emmy Noms, 'American Idol' Snubs
Following Thursday's Primetime Emmy nomination announcements, there's apparently a tide rising among primetime singing competitions. Carson Daly, Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton and Cee-Lo Green are sipping naught but champagne aboard a schooner.
Before them on the beach, Team "American Idol" is buried to their necks in the sand as the waves lap at their chins.
The Hollywood Reporter claims "The Voice" producer Mark Burnett awoke "in a very good mood" as a deluge of congratulatory e-mails and phone calls washed over him following his combined five Emmy nominations for NBC's hit and ABC's "Shark Tank."
"If only you knew the amount of people who said to us, 'You're crazy making another music competition show. America's got enough of them and no one is going to watch another one with spinning chairs,'" Burnett said. "But my instincts with NBC were that this would work, and I think that it did because this show plays on an idea of making ordinary people feel powerful."
Then again, scope out how the other half lives.
"Idol" is in the midst of an overhaul, trying replace departing judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez with the most talked-about marquee names money can buy while producers and Fox brass contemplate salary reductions, budget cuts and layoffs to keep production costs feasible following a season of declining viewership and falling ad revenue.
Oh, lest we forget: it's not like lone surviving judge Randy Jackson has committed to a new deal himself, either.
Again, the tide metaphor: it's rising, but there's breathing room. "The Voice" has had an outstanding two seasons of ratings for NBC. People love Cee-Lo, and the incessant bickering of Aguilera and Levine makes for good water-cooler talk. Maybe that's the cue "Idol" must take: a mind to chemistry, for better or for worse. In the early days, at least Jackson was lovable. He was the smirking, charismatic third-party tie-breaker to the entertaining bickering between Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell.
It's one of the few remaining factor that Fox can control. Fox can't help the dilution of the talent pool available to these shows and more contestants are spread across more and more shows - mainly, "America's Got Talent," "The X Factor" and "The Voice." If professional sports prove anything, it's that you can buy up every major star's services you can and still lose, without a bond between the players.
Obviously, "Idol" needs to give the judges roles short of "Figurehead A, B and C." Take some power OUT of the hands of viewers, and give judges some say in elimination. Make it something more than strictly a "popularity contest" and boot some emphasis back onto actual ability. That way, we could perhaps get back to a competition that's as much steak as it's become about sizzle.
The signs are getting harder to ignore. It's rare for "Idol" to ever become an afterthought, even at its worst. The young lions may be ready to run the eldest male out of the pride.

My boyfriend, my childrens step father and father moved to Marr last July, upon which we had agreed to family counseling and visitation. Well, we never got that . This caused my daughter , then 16, to cut herself and I had to have her admitted to peach ford for suicide watch. Now my son is having abandonment issues as well. Though I understand my ex is doing great . I'd like to tellearn the side of the families who get left behind . They essentially make these men quit their lives altogether , they do not promote families at all. And I'd never recommend anyone ever going here if you wish to love your children or wives because they are apparently against it. My family has suffered dearly and are continuing to . So just to let the public know how way off they are on interpersonal communication. My opinion is they suck in this aspect . I do hope in the future they throw the value of family in their program.
I attended Marr years ago. Reading these reviews make me sick. I got out of Marr and Stayed sober for 5 years. My Sister also went to Marr and has over 12 years sober. The fact that someone died at Marr, is not Marr's fault. You go into a treatment center already with the drug addiction. So the fact that he didn't want to get clean is not Marr's fault. 2 years after I was out I wanted to drink again. I called Tiffany and she went over my RPP and talked me completely out of my relapse. The women there care about you and sometimes they are harsh, but its sometimes what people need, to stay clean. I am now a certified substance abuse counselor and its all because of MARR.
Previous Stories
I read the review for the family member who lost their loved one from drug overdose while at MARR. I can tell you that this is devastating not only to you but to MARR. I have never met a group of more dedicated, caring, and competent professionals than the people at MARR. They certainly do NOT do it for the money. Most of the people working there are in recovery and this is their passion. They celebrate recovery. I have been to Ridgeview, Talbot, Peachford and I can say, without a doubt, that MARR is the most intense and effective treatment available. Unfortunately, addiction is a lethal disease and people do die from this. They die at Ridgeview and other treatment centers as well - this is not something unique to MARR. I love these guys and they saved my life.
MARR saved my son's life!!! He has been sober since he was admitted in May of 2009. He graduated from college at 30 years old in May of 2015 summa cum laude with a 4.0.
Previous Stories
To the person that heard MARR had an overdose death. You are correct. It was my 23 year old son. When I took him to MARR desperate and knowing he was a severe addict they made MARR sound like it was just the place. He was to sick to be living with a 33 year old physician and a 44 year old dentist in an apartment complex. He overdosed on a Friday night from lethally laced herion. Brian nor Doug bothered to call me. My son never received the letter his father noR I wrote him ( we waited the allotted time) nor did I receive his til two weeks after his death. They never even tried to find out where the drugs came from. Two days before my son's death the social worker, Millicent Parker told me my son could not have his art supplies. Instead he was able to do herion out of desperation. I hate this place and I think that they are not equipped for the serious addict. Had I sent my son to a more organized establishment I believe he would be alive today.
I would definitely checkout all the rehab facilities in the Atlanta area before committing to MARR. I have heard that MARR did have an overdose death. Some of the MARR staff gave me the impression of a really good car salesmen. Meaning they can talk the talk, and really want your money. They also do not incorporate any physically activity into their rehab program. A lot of down time, not doing anything. This alone is destructive behavior.
For the person wondering about the reviews from 2011. They are probably bogus. This is not a good place to go. There are much better treatment centers. Men have actually overdosed and died there. Stay away.
I am trying to figure out why all the reviews are only from Feb. 2011. They all seem like they were written by the same person.
Can someone on this site please explain this?
I am a person that has been to three "treatment centers", and most have only cared about how much money you had to give. There was very little taught about how to live. I entered Traditions based on a recommendation of a friend. I was a bit leary, but meeting the director for the first time put me at ease. Brian was different than others I had encountered. His first question was not how far in advance I wanted to pay. Instead, he asked about me. He wanted to know what brought me to treatment again. There is alot of structure in this enviroment, and it is not meant for everyone. We have seemingly endless groups, and I was not a fan at first. However, I am learning something I never really knew before. I am learning the essentials for living a clean (sober) life. If you do not want to learn to live without drugs then this is probably not the place for you. Recovery is about the choices you make. If you chose not to be happy at Traditions; you will not be. The staff has a genuine care and concern for those that walk through their doors. It is not a fake care. It resonates in how they speak and act. I consider myself lucky to have found Traditions. I thank Brian, Sam, Travis and Emily for opening my eyes that I can recover if I am willing.
I attended MARR "Traditions" South for two weeks. I came in voluntarily. It was a dreadful experience. My wife and I both heard very good reviews about the program. It must have been MARR North because where I was at in MARR South was just a disorganized uncaring unhealthy program. My wife paid for this program, because at this time, being the addict that I am, I ran myself dry. Upon entering though, we were on very good terms. Also, MARR, "helped" me work it out with the courts that I would be staying there and did not need to check in for probation… Anyway, at MARR they base everything on there on so-called "accountability", which means having men tell on other men to get more rewards in the program. Such as visitation out or phone privileges. Which is very understandable. You would not want men using drugs or drinking and such. Instead men would look to find anything, not cleaning, not paying attention in a meeting or such to "move up"... What happened to me in this respect... Well, one counselor told me my wife could visit for a MARR speaker. The other counselors did not know. This upset one of the men here. I was called out on this! Because of counselor miscommunication? I got in trouble? Then my counselor, L. C, who had severe anger and mental issues of his own would lash out at me in group. I overheard him complaining to another counselor about his Chapter 7 and marital problems... He would then, with a heated demeanor and red-face come in and counsel me. Having the nerve - calling me names. This is a guy who is supposed to help me? To bring families together? I was not even allowed to talk to my wife the first weeks and this guy was! I spent sleepless nights worrying about my marriage and what this man was telling my wife! It was terrifying. When I look back, it was like a nightmare. The man in charge of family issues was mentally sicker than me. I may have addiction problems, but this man was very disturbed. As for the residential manager, T. C, he was just a mean guy. I affronted him once when in group he called me out for smoking in the apartment. Which was a lie. I was standing outside on the porch. Apparently he smelled it. Anyway, I said it was untrue. He asked if I was calling him a liar and well, yes, I was. That was it for me. He greeting to me everyday was, "if you don't like it here, pack your stuff and get out!". He know by this time I was staying only to please my wife, so he antagonizing me. He also loved to tell me how I was going to relapse. Well, it's been five months and no relapse. I am grateful to God. As for when the time came to leave, it was a mutual break. Their way of discharging me was putting all of my stuff in a box and dropping me off at a Barnes and Noble. My wife had my Cell Phone. By the grace of God, I leaked it to one of the ¾ men that I would be there. Out of his kindness, he drove me too a sober living community. From there, I continued real recovery. My wife did not understand nor believe the horror that this place was for me. The counselors were selfish and in many ways cruel. Again, maybe MARR north is totally different. As for the men here… Some want recovery, some don't care. Most are good guys just wanting to get by. They follow all of the rules and don't buck. They tell the counselors what they want to hear even when it's not true. As for my probation, when I left, L. C, wrote a scathing letter to my officer about me. Saying I needed higher care and that I was mentally ill… I was in only for a DUI. He really wanted to hurt me. I highly recommend finding another recovery center where there are caring people. Thank you for reading. This is all true – this is no "addict behavior"

mountain designs :: odyssey pack
This pack from Mountain Designs was the perfect hybrid luggage to see me through weeks of semi-active travel through europe. Aside from the usual technical details, the slightly wider and shorter than usual size of this pack made it very comfortable for carrying my gear up and down stairs, on buses, ferries, trains and trams. Access to the contents was also fantastic, allowing me to keep everything neat, and soiled items like shoes easily separate. The buckles let you compress size, but also come in handy for strapping gear outside your pack - bedrolls, tents. Available in 65 or 75 litre, detachable day pack, lockable zips, hideaway straps, rain cover, Duratech lite fabric, lightweight. Highly recommended.

Hi Im a 42 yr old ,and use insulin for my diabetes. I was wondering how my diabetes will affect surgery/ results? I have 48 DD/ E breast. I have been this size since I hit puberty at age 11. I have wanted a breast reduction most of my life. I have back, neck and shoulder pain. I also have deep grooves on my shoulders and often have rashes under breast. My biggest concern is nerve damage/ sensation and scaring.
Diabetes and Breast Reduction
Doctor Answers 17
My only concern would be adjusting the insulin doseprior to surgery to avoid intro prestige hypoglycemia. You should discuss the issue with both your surgeon and anesthesiologist per operatively. The effect on healing and circulation to the skin and nipple will probably be negligible, although your surgeon might recommend antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection. Overall the operation can be done quite safely in your case.
Diabetes and breast reduction?
That being said, well-controlled diabetes should equate a minimal increased risk for the above and surgical procedures still safe and a reasonable decision. You should ensure adequate glucose control always, but also obtain medical clearance from your primary care physician that you are at an acceptable risk for undergoing a surgical procedure. Laboratory results such as HgbA1C is a good measure of control. Discuss all of your medical comorbidities and medication with your surgeon prior and discuss these risks. This procedure should still be very safe for you and hope for an uncomplicated course with an excellent result! Hope that this helps! Best wishes!
Breast reduction in diabetics
Diabetics may undergo a breast reduction without complications if their diabetes in under control. Many diabetics have peripheral neuropathy, which decreases sensation of the areolas. If you have areola numbness now, it is possible that you may have areola numbness afterwards from the diabetes. With a new technique (The Ultimate Breast Reduction) often the areola sensation can improve. Shoulder, neck and back pain can also improve with this technique by the breast weight transfer to the underlying muscle. This technique eliminates vertical scars used in lollipo or boat anchor reductions.
Best Wishes,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Breast Reduction can be done on diabetic patients
Proper clearance form your internist,controlled diabetes and you should be fine to undergo a breast reduction. Patients with diabetes are at a higher risk of infection and with the right antibiotics and a close watch on the recovery you should heal without complication. Nerve damage/ sensation is unlikely. There will be scars that are red at first however those scars should heal into fine white lines.

Diabetes and Breast Reduction
Dear bigboobiesco,
This is not an uncommon situation and one that can be successfully addressed by getting everyone to work together as a team. This means getting the doctor who is managing your diabetes to evaluate and clear you for surgery. The anesthesia team needs to be consulted and prepared to manage your diabetes' needs before, during, and after surgery. The plastic surgeon needs to be willing to see the patient on an increased level to ensure the wounds are healing well and there is no evidence of infection. By working together, you should be able to have a very successful surgery.
As an FYI, we performed this exact procedure on a IDDM patient on Friday and she is doing great. Again, thanks to team prep and planning. Hope this helps and best of luck with your surgery.
Breast Reductuon safe with diabetes?
We refuse to perform cosmetic elective surgeries on insulin users because thay all get some degree of wound healing problems. That said, you probably would be better off without the rashes which eventualy will cause an infection anyway. Large breasts all have decreased sensation around the nipple already. All methods of reduction will aggravate that.
If you will reign yourself to accept the high probability of wound healing problems you will in the end be very glad you did it. Reduction patients are the most thankfull of all our patients because they not only look better but they feel better too. They are the ones still sending Christmas cards 10 yreas later. I have one still sending Christmas cards 40 years later!

Breast Reduction Can Be Performed Safely For Women With Dabetes.
Breast reduction can be performed safely for women with well controlled diabetes. Your primary care physician will play a vital role in a successful outcome. Preoperative evaluation including history, physical examination and laboratory tests (including hemoglobin A1c) will help to determine if you are a candidate for the procedure. Additional cardiac testing may be required to determine if you are medically cleared for the procedure. Your primary care doctor will also participate in the management of your diabetes during and after the procedure. With optimal control of your diabetes, complications such as delayed healing, poor scarring, and infection can be minimized.
Breast reduction has one of the highest patient satisfaction ratings of any plastic surgery procedures. Breast reduction not only improves the way you look, but also alleviates the symptoms of large breasts, including back, neck and shoulder pain, rash, grooving of the shoulders, and reduced exercise tolerance. I would recommend a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best regards,
Andrew Lyos, MD, FAC
Diabetes and breast reduction
Patients with diabetes have risks of complications. If you want to go ahead with surgery, your diabetes should be well controlled to minimize the complication rate.
Diabetes and Breast Reduction
We frequently run into this situation, that is a diabetic patient who wishes to undergo elective surgery. Assuming your Hemoglobin a1C is at a good level and your doctor caring for your diabetes is on board, you should be able to undergo the surgery. You may be at a slightly higher risk of infection and in my practice we keep our diabetic patients on antibiotics before and for a few days after surgery. You should not be at any more risk for scarring or nerve damage than a non-diabetic patient if the above driteria are met. The above information would not apply if you are a smoker.
Diabetes and breast reduction
While diabetes, especially insulin-dependent diabetes, can generally affect healing and infection rates, when planned carefully and with the diabetes under control diabetes in of itself is not a contraindication from breast reduction. Make sure your surgeon and internist/endocrinologist communicate with each other to optimize timing and insulin dosage.

Pine-Richland 8th-grader's history paper earns top spot
A New York printer whose 1735 acquittal in a libel trial — and the precedent the case set — led to a recent victory closer to home for a local eighth-grader.
Pine-Richland Middle School student Joseph Mullen's history paper about the trial of John Peter Zenger won a first-place award in the National History Day in Pennsylvania contest. The paper, titled "The Advent of the Free Press," finished atop the Junior Individual Paper category for grades six through eight.
"I was kind of surprised, excited .... but, I mean, I put a lot of work into it," said Joseph, 14, a Pine resident.
He and 62 other first- or second-place winners were chosen from among 766 students, some of whom competed in groups, to compete nationally at the Kenneth E. Behring National History Day Contest at the University of Maryland from June 9-13.
Students compete in one of 18 categories.
Founded in 1974, National History Day is a yearlong program in which sixth- through 12th-grade students study and interpret historical topics. Students produce performances, exhibits, multimedia documentaries, websites and research papers based on research related to an annual theme.
Of the more than 11,900 Pennsylvania students who participated this year, about 6,000 competed regionally, said Jeffrey Hawks, state coordinator for National History Day in Pennsylvania.
A record number of students, 2,876, will compete in the national contest, said Kim Fortney, deputy director of National History Day Inc. Winners will receive medals and monetary awards ranging from $250 to $5,000, depending on the grade division and award placement.
Joseph, whose paper placed third at the regional competition at the Heinz History Center in March, found that Zenger's trial clearly illustrated the 2013 contest's theme, "Turning Points in History."
"I just think that it happened in the 1730s way before the Revolutionary War. And I just think how freedom of the press and freedom of speech came through that early before they even made the Constitution and before we even became a country," Joseph said.
In 1734, Zenger was arrested for seditious libel after his newspaper, the New York Weekly Journal, publishing attacks against Gov. William Cosby. At Zenger's trial, his lawyer, Andrew Hamilton, argued that the "truth is a defense against libel."
Not only was Zenger found not guilty, but his trial helped to further the cause for American independence from Britain and helped to pave the way for the First Amendment, which protects the right to freedom of religion and expression, according to the Federal Hall National Memorial's website.
"Hamilton's crafty choice of emotional analogies, the jury of Zenger's peers, and the inexperience of Judge De Lancey were the perfect concoction that unexpectedly introduced a right, the freedom of the press, which would become a central principle of American democracy," Joseph wrote in his paper.

Businesses offering cloud computing software solutions to small firms are using the model as a excuse for hiking up prices, an entrepreneur has claimed.
Quentin Pain, founder of on-premise accounting software company Accountz, said monthly charges for products in what is known as the 'Cloud', which can be accessed via the internet, are "alarming".
"Small business owners hate recurring charges; they'd much rather pay once for software and have the option to use it forever," he said. "Frankly, I cannot understand why vendors who were charging a £200 for permanent use of their desktop software can justify charging £15-20 a month. Over a decade, what looks like a cheap option easily ends up costing £2,000. Cloud computing is great for software-company shareholders, but a real rip off for their customers."
Pain added that much of the discussion around the benefits of cloud computing is "hype" and many small business owners don't want to manage their accounts in the same way as they check their email while on the move via a mobile device.
"Bookkeeping is something they'd really rather not be doing and they need cheque books, folders of receipts, credit-card statements and red-ink paid stamps laid out in front of them," he commented.
"And those who do want to send an invoice out while on the move can do it more quickly and reliably with software installed on their laptops than with Cloud services that require 100% permanent internet connections."
