Philosophy of Care
I believe that medical care is a cooperation between the patient and the doctor. In order make this cooperation work, I explain or "teach" the patients as much as I can about their medical conditions and answer any questions they may have. This is so they can make the best decision for their situation. As a family physician, I believe that preventive care is very important. Preventive care is trying to "prevent" certain medical problems from even starting. This may be through counseling or blood/X-ray testing.
Since medicine is constantly changing, I am always learning either from going to lectures or talking to specialists or even from the patients I see everyday. The cycle of learning and teaching creates a worthwhile and enjoyable working environment and hopefully, excellent patient care, which is our ultimate goal.

The feeling is hardly original. It's the scouting report on Greg Paulus that's been tossed around throughout ACC student sections for the past three years, especially in Chapel Hill. "He's a little punk out there and I think a lot of people know that." What's surprising is that those words didn't come from an overzealous fan or some Internet message board. They came directly from within the Paulus family this week. (Fayetteville Observer)

Yahoo Sales Gets Google-esque Overhaul
Completely re-organizing the sales squad may seem to be a perennial activity at Yahoo, but recently installed COO Henrique De Castro has offered some bold overhaul plans for the latest (last ditch?) effort, according to a report by All Things D's Kara Swisher. De Castro wants to shift the company's ad sales to a category-based model, moving away from the portal's long-established regional-based model. In the new system, Yahoo sales reps will be responsible for selling the portal's full suite of ad solutions to specific and targeted marketing areas, such as autos or sports.
Sound familiar? It's how the sales system works at De Castro's former place of employment, Google. Who else worked there? Oh yeah, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, who seems to be redecorating the place in a very Googlish style.
Sources tell Swisher the planned shift does not come without its downfalls, primarily the downsizing of Yahoo's colossal sales team. Swisher also hints at the possibility of several of De Castro's own executives jumping on board to help Yahoo through the transition, including Google's former Vice President of Global Agency Sales & Partnerships and current head of Media6Degrees (M6D) Penry Price.
Moving to category-based sales may help reinvent Yahoo's marred ad program and help the beleaguered portal better compete against old rival Google, where De Castro used to sit as President of Media, Mobile and Platforms Worldwide. Yahoo is set to implement the new system as early as Jan. 1, 2013 and is poised to bring dynamic changes to the digital ad environment with the two giants meeting head-to-head once more. Yahoo's agenda for early 2013 also includes more visibility at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where the company hopes to strengthen its connection with potential advertisers.

Before the Bishop of Shrewsbury makes any comments, he should ensure his own house is in order.
What have we had over the past few years, active abuse against children by priests and nuns and the church ignoring it. Priests actively involved in terrorism (Northern Ireland). Priests coveting another mans wife, surely against 1 of the TEN Commandments.
How can any official in the Roman Catholic Church make any reference to marriage, when they themselves do not marry, except to their religion.
All officials of the RC Church should be following all the principle of Christianity and not pick and choose when it suits them.

Spencer Pratt, the lesser half of wife Heidi Montag Pratt (and that's not saying much) has just been voted most disliked celebrity in the world. He takes over this distinction from vindicated yet often thought of being a murderer OJ Simpson, while his wife has the honor of the number six spot on the list. Wow, he has got to be very proud of himself to oust a man who (in this writer's opinion) viciously butchered two people from the most disliked spot. But the question remains, just who has bragging rights for this? His wife, who is slightly less disliked or Pratt himself for being #1?
So, just what about his newly plasticized wife? Well, she's currently filming a reality series called Famous Food, where seven "celebrities" try to open a successful restaurant, set to air on VH1. Reportedly, Spencer Pratt has been banned from the set and also any involvement whatsoever with the show. This was something explicitly stated to Montag-Pratt, who agreed to it right away and Pratt apparently is abiding by the rules…..so far.
So, what do you think? Tell us about it in our forums (you can find the link on top)!

Friendships are sure to be tested among Australia's elite triathletes as they chase Commonwealth Games selection at this weekend's world championship grand final in London.
Australia's elite women's team of Emma Moffatt, Ashleigh Gentle and Emma Jackson enjoyed dinner together on Thursday night but it'll be everyone for themselves in Saturday's race at the Hyde Park course.
The first Australian to finish in the top eight of this weekend's race will win an automatic spot in next year's Games in Glasgow, ensuring there is plenty on the line for the trio.
A relaxed Moffatt, who returns to the London course where her Olympic hopes were dashed last year following a crash in the bike leg, says the atmosphere within the squad going into this weekend's event has been good.
"It is great to walk into the team and feel like you're at home," the 2008 Olympic bronze medallist said.
"The camaraderie and friendships you form are special and it makes you want to get out there and do it for yourself and of course for Australia - it's just something about this uniform.
"I'm feeling good, relaxed and ready but as always we'll wait and see. There are so many good girls in this race ... we all want that elusive spot on the Comm Games team so that will bring the best out in us."
Gold Coaster Gentle, who has stated her goal for 2013 is to qualify for next year's Games, said receiving her team kit from Olympic gold medallist Emma Snowsill earlier the week had been a boost.
The 22-year-old said she was hoping to use Snowsill's presence as motivation during the race.
"She has been there and done that and I just want to get out there and race to the best of my ability and the rest will take care of itself," she said.
"Personally I have had a good year - sitting in 7th on the ITU rankings - but Saturday will be game on. I can't wait."
Jackson will be returning to the course where she finished eighth in last year's Olympics and is hopeful of securing another top 10 finish to push her Commonwealth Games aspirations.
"I was so looking forward to coming back here - there are so many great memories of the Olympic Games and I have learnt so much myself in the last 12 months," the 22-year-old said.
"I would love nothing better than taking that automatic spot for Glasgow but it won't be easy, Ashleigh and Emma are after the same thing."

Killeen Daily Herald
The 1st Cavalry Division's Headquarters is scheduled to deploy in early 2009 to Iraq, according to a Tuesday announcement by the Defense Department.
That affects more than 1,100 soldiers serving in the Headquarters who will be sent to provide capabilities such as command and control, intelligence, communications and logistical support, according to information from the division. The soldiers also will conduct stability and security operations in cooperation with Iraqi security forces and local governments.
The Headquarters soldiers are preparing for a mission rehearsal exercise in late October that will simulate situations they could encounter in Iraq, according to information from the division.
The division's 4th Brigade Combat Team left for Iraq nearly four months ago for a scheduled 15-month deployment. Its soldiers moved into an area in eastern Iraq that had previously not hosted American troops.
Part of the soldiers' mission is to stop weapons smuggling from Iran into Iraq, Col. Philip Battaglia, brigade commander, said in August.
The 2nd and 3rd Brigade Combat Teams will soon begin returning from rotations to the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk, La., and the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, Calif. These rotations are among the final steps in the brigades' preparations to deploy.
Both brigades left Fort Hood in early September. The 1st Brigade Combat Team is in the process of sending its soldiers to the National Training Center, where they will train for a month.
The Defense Department announced in late May that the 3rd Brigade could deploy this fall "to replace troops scheduled to come home by the year's end," according to Herald reports.
Officials announced in June that the 1st and 2nd Brigades are expected to deploy to Iraq between January and March 2009. This will be each of the brigades' third deployments since the war began.
Most of the deploying 1st Cavalry soldiers should have "boots on the ground" in Iraq by spring 2009, according to information from the division.
Tuesday's Defense Department announcement also involved one corps headquarters, one Marine expeditionary force headquarters and seven brigade combat teams that total about 26,000 people.
The deployment window for these units will begin this winter and continue into summer 2009, according to information from the Defense Department.
Units receiving deployment orders include:
I Corps Headquarters, Fort Lewis, Wash.
II Marine Expeditionary Force Headquarters, Camp Lejeune, N.C.
4th Brigade Combat Team, 1st Armored Division, Fort Bliss
4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, Fort Bragg, N.C.
5th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, Fort Lewis, Wash.
1st Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, Fort Bragg, N.C.
3rd Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, Fort Lewis, Wash.
4th Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, Fort Riley, Kan.
115th Fires Brigade, Cheyenne, Wyo.
The Defense Department will continue to announce major unit deployments and adjustments as they are identified and those units are alerted.

Hi All-
I posted a couple of months ago under the tread "Looking for Insight." Unfortunately, I have a new and not so good update.
My Husband of 16 years has a cocaine addiction. I first became aware of this prior to our marriage and broke up with him. He went to tx, meetings etc and after a year or so I believed that he was clean and that the problem was behind us ( I was only 20/21 yo at the time and in hindsight, naïve.) Fast forward to summer of 2012, things in our marriage had deteriorated significantly and I asked him for a separation. After I refused to back down on my request he "admittied" to me that he was still a cocaine addict. I know it's hard to understand but I was shocked. I truly did not know he had been using, didn't see the signs, thought that his irritability, mean streak etc was the possible result of borderline or narcissistic personality disorder. Hurt Dad asked in my previous post how I didn't notice money missing? Good question! While I do manage both our personal and business finances, he owns his own business and has ample opportunity to do things for cash on the side that I would never know about. I assume this is how he has financed his habit with out my noticing money missing. Anyway, immediately after his admission of being an addict (literally within hours) he retracted his statement saying that he wasn't really an addict, just somebody who "abused drugs." He stated that he did not need tx, meetings etc but did see a therapist briefly that I had been seeing who told both him and I that she "didn't really think he had a cocaine problem since he still went to work everyday etc." I quickly stopped seeing her after that as I was really devastated that she didn't take this problem seriously. The two of them kind of ganged up on me and criticized me for not continuing with counseling or taking steps to improve our marriage.
Since his admission of being an "addict" then retracting that statement about 18 months ago, I have again stupidly believed that he was clean, well, maybe on the surface but something in my gut has not allowed me to trust him or make myself emotionally vulnerable to him. I have gone on about doing the things that I value ( pursuing my Masters Degree, volunteering at my kids school, taking care of my 3 beautiful children etc) All of these things have made him angry and he criticizes me for devoting my time to them. He say's that "everything else is more important to me, I only care about what I want and don't devote any time to him and improving our marriage." Hearing this so much has really beat me down.
So, now for the recent development, I decided to test my gut feeling after so many years of not hearing it and being told by H that I was wrong. Two weeks ago we went to a sports tournament for one of my kids, it included staying in a hotel and swimming. My H has a lot of chest hair and likes to shave if he is going to be shirtless in public. I took the hair sample and sent it in for drug testing with out him knowing about it. I got the results this week and they were off the charts "positive" for cocaine. The levels that were present in the sample were indicative of "constant" use. Anything above 10,000 pg/mg indicates constant use and his level was 10,300.
Yesterday, the confrontation happened. I was trying to decide how to approach this but ended up being backed into a corner by H who was up to his usual tactics of criticizing me for the way I treat him (distant) not devoting enough time and energy to repairing our marriage etc. I snapped and told him he is "a lying, manipulative, addict" and asked him point blank if he had been using again. Of course, his initial answer was "no" even when I went and gave him the drug test results and told him what I did he still denied it. However, he rather quickly realized that he couldn't get out of this one and admitted a little bit. First it was "the first time was only this month." Then it was " its only been a few times" then "its been 30-40 times" then it was "I stopped for a while but when I didn't see any improvement from YOU I went back to it." So, I really have no idea if he has ever really stopped or for how long. I suppose it doesn't matter. Then I told him I was filing for divorce. I can't take anymore, it's now been 20+ years on this rollercoaster and I want off. That's when the sobbing and begging started. "He needs his family by his side, he needs his wife to be there for him to support him and be his friend. He has used because he feels hurt and alone and that's what he turns to because it numbs his pain. He has completely alienated his family ( Mom and siblings) and says that we are the only thing he has ( me and the kids) Once we had kids (11 years ago) I stopped being a "wife" and he felt hurt by that. He uses because I have pulled away from the relationship and it's so painful to him" And so on , and so on, and so on. He is begging me not to file for divorce yet.
I told him that this is not my fault, he uses because he has a problem and its as simple as that. I told him that he needs to figure out what to do and how to heal himself. It isn't my job and I can't/won't take responsibility for his wellness. I am now waiting for him to tell me what his plan is.
Thanks for taking the time to read such a long post. I would appreciate any comments, support or insight.

From the outside I am seeing manipulation. He didn't want you working on you and getting a masters because it makes you too independent. Trust isn't something you have to give. He has to earn trust. There are times even now I don't trust. It takes time and a lot of positive things on their part. A lie even non-drug related destroys a lot of the built up trust. Fair or not that is how it is when trust is totally destroyed.
You can get busy living. Or get busy dying.
I define comfort as self-acceptance. When we finally learn that self-care begins and ends with ourselves, we no longer demand sustenance and happiness from others.

I may not have much of value to add here because my situation was with my daughter, not a spouse. But I know when she was still denying there was a problem, waiting for her to come up with a plan wouldn't have worked. No matter what she would have said to me, her plans were about how to keep things just as they were, where to score and how to come up with the money, and how to justify her using. Your husband's tears and begging sound like the same. My girl's priorities, like your husband's, were very different from mine, and her planning went to support her priorities. She also would say that if I cared about her, I would never want her to go through the pain of withdrawal, which is the same kind of manipulation as your hubs saying he stopped for a while, but you were still distant so he started again, etc.
When you think about whether to go ahead with the divorce, ask yourself if it's OK with you that things stay the way they are. If it isn't, look for behavior - not tears and promises - that suggests things will be different.

You are correct: it is NOT your fault and he DOES have a problem...a problem and addiction that he is very busy defending and protecting. Don't wait for him to tell you what his plan is, get a plan for yourself and your children and take care of your life. He will use until the pain of using exceeds the pleasure derived from it.
You sound pretty mentally healthy and can see his actions for what they are...take care of you and your kids.

After reading your posts, doing a lot of soul searching and talking with trusted friends and family, I decided what I needed to do for ME. Letting my H come up with his own plan, I decided, was not a viable option so, I came up with a plan of my own. My plan was this: I told H that if he was willing to move out of the house and get himself into a minimum of an Intensive Outpatient Program for 90 days I would be willing to refrain from filing for divorce during that 90 day period. At the end of the 90 days we would re-evaluate where we were both at and make a decision about our marriage at that point. The two non-negotiable points were that he needed to be out of the house and working a legitimate program. I am willing to be a part of the "family" portion of whatever tx program he would enter into.
I delivered my plan to H this morning and his answer was "NO" to both of the non-negotiable points. He repeatedly stated that "those programs are stupid and wrong and I don't need them, they are not made for people like me." " You are completely wrong. I have asked you for help and you won't help me unless I agree to your ultimatum." "I just need to find a counselor that can help me figure out why I turn to drugs when I feel lonely and hurt, I'm not an addict, I just abuse drugs when I have those feelings." "What you are asking me to do by moving out would push me more towards the feelings that cause me to use, being away from my family would make me feel more lonely and isolated, it's the wrong choice." I could go on and on with the quotes but they are all essentially the same message, just different words and tactics. He refused to let the conversation die, even after I repeatedly told him that the conversation was over, I extended my offer of what I was willing to do to help him and that was all I could do.
He finally left (for the day,) here I sit in the aftermath of the s**t storm. I know now that I have to file for divorce, I have given him the option of tx and some time apart and he is clearly refusing. Please pray for me, I need strength and courage. I have 3 young kids to think about and this isn't going to be easy on any of us. I'd appreciate your input, is there something I could have done differently or better? Am I abandoning him in his time of need? I feel like if I don't stick to my guns and save myself and my kids I will drown along with him.

No one can tell a married person when it is time to walk awa, but it sounds like you have made a decision for YOU and that's truly okay. You stated your boundaries and he is unwilling to meet you there, so sticking to your plan is all you can do. Make sure that whatever you are doing is for YOU and your kids, not to try to make him do something...that never works...they wll always call your bluff. He thinks he's got it all figured out nd not much you can say will change that, so it's good you ended the conversation instead of getting embroiled in one of those circular and fruitless conversations (I had hundreds of them with my daughter, maybe thousands).
Of course you have my prayers, I always keep the families here in my prayers and hope for the best possible outcome for all. This is not easy, but sometimes a bold move is necessary for ou own lives and peace of mind. You are doing the best you can with what you have and you are not abandoning him, merely leaving the decisions for his life in his hands.

..how your husband treats you. Do you think his responses insinuating that YOU are setting him up to use drugs more frequently.. if and when u decide to leave him.. is fair? It seems to me that you are in no way gonna win in his game where he decides on the rules. If you truly love yourself.. your kids.. and your relationship.. you will allow him to grow and grown up.. on his own. Consequences are uncertain.. he may learn other coping techniques... but i believe that will test his will.. and prove his love for himself.. you and your family

You said youve been in this relationship for a very long time. What are positive possibilities outside this predicament. You may be worried about your kids not having a father to look up to.. but is he able to play a good role model to your kids... is it alryt for our mom to be mistreated by a partner who is supposed to be the number 1 person who shd take care of mom? I think in situations like this.. as long as you are able to communicat it well.. kids will mature and adapt easily. Be strong girl. I think youre doing the right thing for everyone. Especially YOU. Im just here.

My boyfriend had been abusing Fentanyl patches, opiates, and heroin starting in 2005. When we met I did not have a clue about drug addiction but caught on quick! He wanted to start Suboxone and I paid for it, unfortunately the Psych's out there that have that special license to prescribe it are taking advantage of addicts and their families for as much as $250 per monthly visit and prior to 2010 Suboxone pills were around $5 per pill in Ky was the cheapest and I checked EVERYwhere in Ky and Ohio. I spent thousands and thousands of dollars on this stuff and it is supposed to make you sick from the naloxone in it if you do opiates or Herion, ya well that is a crock. He has figured out a way around that and that was early in the game. He is from a family of addicts that started by doing their mother's Oxycotin pain pills. We had to move to the other side of town because he keep using with his mother and brothers despite Suboxone. He has been on it sine 2007. His job's ins. pays for his script now but unfortunately his mother moved close to us and the "get pills from mom" cycle has started all over again. She is a very bad person. She has her other son Mailing pills to her from KY. She failed a drug test at her doctor's office and they cut her pain meds off, Thank God because she just abuses them, I know, I am a nurse. However I think my boyfriend purchases pain pills for her now off the street, of course, via her $$ plus she takes him too. I have drug tested him many times also to rule out heroin usage but it's those drug tests with the double lines that appear for neg and single line for positive. Well I know that despite the faint faint faint second line that pops up after a trip to mamas house is not an indictation of a neg. result but Google vendictated him saying that it is a neg. result. Of course an addict will do and say anything to cover up and not get caught but this is ridiculous. I know from Years of experience how he acts when he is high and test or no test I know he is guilty of using.

That's it! Tests are often useless or fruitless, and, why should we live that way?!
Addiction looks like addiction, plain and simple. When they stop using, it's clear
to see.
Methadone and Suboxone are often "used" by addicts to explain why they are
nodding out, slurring on the phone, or, to pass a piss test with their parole
officer. (doesn't work)
Sad, and a shame. Too many years wasted until, and, if they ever get to the
reason that they need to be numb.

Yesterday i catch him smoking, he got furious,shout at me that is my fault he smoke again because im bullyig him and abuse him,and he hit me,again.After i kicked him out of the house,he starts blackmail me again and said he kill himself,again.Last week money was missing from my account,but that was "bank charges", again. He didnt finish his college, doesn work,i pay for everything myself but is me who abuse him because he has to get up to child in the morning while im at work.He is agressive,shouting, doesnt care our son is beside or asleep.I feel depresed but trying to cope for my child, i have to work and be there for him.I really want to help him but i dont know how,i cant force him if he doesnt see problem.I want save our family and be happy again.When hes not smoking he is great father and husband and i want him back,but i cat stand that any more.The biggest mistake i maid was that i took him back first time whe he lied to me.After that i think,he never take my seriously,he knew i will take him back again and again so he can do what he wants and i will forgive.I know if i let him come back that will never finish.How to make him understand i want the best for him and i want help him?

Your actions do set a precedent. He is not working and has to watch his child, and, that makes him mad? Then, when you inquire about missing monies he gets upset?
His lashing out seems like typical addict behavior. It's simply to protect himself, guard if you will, so he can continue on with the addiction.
By allowing his behavior...not working, getting angry when you want responsible action, etc., perhaps you are creating an environment for his actions to continue? Why would he want to be different if he doesn't have to?
What if...he had no $$? What if he had no place to live? Just thinking aloud here, but...
That child needs responsible direction. Not some selfish drug addicted person to lead.

well we made the paint so it was practicaly water, and i took it apart and attempted to clean it but i have no clue what i was doing... what do i use to clean it and all that??

hey man i got my airbrush working it was a really simple fix that i just didn't think of, but ok if someone could post some shit of kinda the "simples" to airbrushing that would help a bunch
if rugby were easy it would be called soccer
once u get into airbrushing uv entered a whole nother world of art its not much different from graff art its just the fact ur gettin into something u can make good money doin (not sayin u cant do that with spray paint) its just the fact society looks at graff artist as fuckin hoodlums that dont know anything but how to fuck shit up. Fuck that graff artist know alot about society in general and how to screw the system over but yea usually air brushing leads to doin tattoos wich is wat i do now either way u look at it we can all make money off wat ever medium u choose from walls to skin art is art fuck society and reep the benefits of ur art. just keep goin on this sight lol i havnt been on here since i went to jail a year ago and started doin tattoos so love peace and chicken grease and stay up my dudes

my boy gave me a brand new iwata eclipse hp-bs tonight, he's been sittin on for a good bit of years
i'll be getting a compressor soon, found a nice cheap one online, wanted to ask though.....whats the best techniques for control? i think i may be able to get the hang of this fairly quickly, just need some tips on control
airbrushing a lot of trial and error, especially when ur first starting out. but a lot of the same principles of spray painting work with an airbrush (closer to surface = a finer line) theres honestly like an insane amount of techniques for different types of control for different jobs, but just straight line work is a bit self taught. borg ull be fine man
yeah you are kind of being a fag about this whole thing. start playing with the fucker. obviously its a double action so minimal pull = lighter softer line full pullback its going to give you a nice thicker line although it has only a 35mm opening. its gravity fed so you have no control over how much product youll be spraying out, just plan on doing fine detail work. imagine trying to do a fill in with a grey dot on a huge piece. it blows and takes forever. once you start to get an idea of how she'll react then start doing figure 8s fat to thick lines etc. have fun with it. if there is anything i can suggest to you now as a preventative buy airbrush cleaning solution and a cleaning machine so that you can let it soak in after using it. i would also invest in these cleaning brushes mack brushes makes because they have a fine brush on it thatll fit iwatas real nice. but when it comes to what youll be spraying i cant stress enough how important it is to thoroughly clean out your cup, running fluid through it by spraying, taking your needle out and wiping it clean, etc. if you have any questions about maintenance get at me i used to repair them quite a bit when i worked at the art store. fag.
beware the beast man for he is the devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.
MDC familia.
define dots? i dont really see any point in jotting a bunch of dots on a piece of paper
another question i had is....does it matter how much psi your using? i read some of the manual for the iwata eclipse last night, and it said 30-60psi......and the compressor im getting is 15-30psi.....would it really be that bad to lower the psi to about 20-25 for detail??
and ofcourse im going to just have to experiment and shit......its quite hard when i only have the gun as of now though, just trying to gain some knowledge before i start this shit, seems u need a very wide range of knowledge about all aspects of airbrushing.....from compressors to paint...to technique,ect.......im just making some notes for myself
ruger....ur fagilicious <3<3

If The GOP Candidates Were Sex Toys, This Is What They'd Look Like
In his new project "Grand Old Party," NYU graduate student Matthew Epler found a sexier way to visualize the Republican presidential candidates. Using Gallup's website for data, he determined the width of each toy by approval rating while the height was determined by the length of each campaign. But these aren't just imaginings. Epler took it a step further and made replicas of the toys out of black silicone. They are available for purchase on his website, provided that you would want to masturbate with them … even ironically. You can see his full line of Republican dildos here including Michelle Bachmann and Rick Perry, who come in butt plugs. Um. Awesome. [The Daily Beast]

Nine European countries downgraded by Standard and Poor - THE Eurozone has been engulfed in a new crisis after credit agency Standard and Poor's downgraded nine countries, including France.
The cuts led to a drop in the euro and share prices while the European Central Bank was forced to buy bonds to prop up the Italian economy.
The agency cut the credit ratings of Cyprus, Italy, Portugal and Spain by two notches and France, Austria, Malta, Slovakia and Slovenia by one notch.
But the significant cut was to the rating of France, which dropped from AAA to AA+, leaving Germany as the only major economy in the eurozone with a AAA credit rating. Italy went from A to BBB+, Spain from AA- to A, Austria from AAA to AA+, Portugal BBB- to BB, Malta from A to A-, Cyprus from BBB to BB+, Slovakia from A+ to A and Slovenia from AA- to A+.
S&P said it was "primarily driven by insufficient policy measures by EU leaders to address systemic stresses".
France, Spain, Italy among eurozone nations downgraded by Standard and Poor's - "We believe that there is a risk that reform fatigue could be mounting, especially in those countries that have experienced deep recessions and where growth prospects remain bleak," it said in a statement.
The downgrade of France, the world's fifth-largest economy, marks the second high-profile downgrade of a top tier triple-A nation by S&P in less than six months, after it stripped the US of the ranking and sparked a wave of controversy in August, 2011.
France continues to hold triple-A ratings from Fitch Ratings and Moody's Investors Service. The country
France attempted to blunt the impact of the impending news, which came after US markets closed. Finance Minister Francois Baroin went on prime-time television in France and said that while the country would have preferred to keep the rating, the downgrade is not a catastrophe. "It is not ratings agencies that dictate French policy," Mr Baroin said. "It is clearly (related) to the governance of the eurozone and to its instability."
...Although S&P left Germany's triple-A rating unscathed, the company's assessment offers stark evidence of the extent to which many industrialised countries have been relying on debt during both periods of economic expansion and contraction, as they pursued the increasingly elusive goal of buoyant growth and full employment. France, for example, hasn't recorded a balanced budget since 1974.
S&P's decision means that Europe's rescue fund, the European Financial Stability Facility, could lose the triple-A rating it needs to borrow cheaply and lend to ailing euro-zone governments. As France is the second-biggest contributor to the fund's guarantees, the chances are greater that the EFSF's capacity will be crimped or its borrowing costs will rise.
Germany now the only major Eurozone economy with triple-A credit rating after S&P's downgrade of 9 countries, including France

Galapagos and Machu Picchu: Celebrity Xpedition Cruise Review by mikey47
Overall Member Rating
Galapagos and Machu Picchu
Destination: South America
Embarkation: Other
Celebrity couldn't do more for us. The Xpedition is a lovely ship and the crew and naturalists are superb.
The high intensity excursions are not difficult. You take your time and if you are concerned the guides understand. The stops were found by some to be worse because of the standing around. We always went for the last Zodiac because there was more time and usually less people in the group.
Everything really is inclusive once on board. The only extra before hand were drinks at the Theatre dinner in Quito.
Laundry is inexpensive and yes we did take too many clothes! We still made the 15kg weight though.
Coming all the way from England you really think of doing something else whilst out there. It's a long way. We did 11 flight in 15 days from Manchester!
Being able to do both Galapagos and MP in one trip was fantastic but very More hard work.
There are only 10 places a week on the add on to MP at present though they would like to go to 20 in the future.
Cuzco was made worse by the strikes which meant getting up at either 4 am or 5 am each morning. But at least we saw what we wanted to see.
This gave problems with The Hiram Bingham train to MP. Due to strikes around Cuzco they had to alter the schedule to leave further down the route (half way) at 7:20 am (instead of 9:00 am in Cuxco) which meant a 4 am wake up call and finish at the same station at 4:30 pm instead of Cuzco at 10:00 pm. That meant we only had half the time on the train and had to travel by minibus (by Celebrity) for the rest.
The "breakfast" that was supplied was basic and frugal and cannot have compared to the Brunch we should have had.
The lunch in the Cafeteria at the Sanctuary Lodge was abysmal and shared with everyone else who had come up on the other basic trains and was instead of the gourmet dinner we should have experienced.
Yes there were circumstances outside Orient Expresses control (the strike) and we did get to MP, but they made little attempt to meet the content of the contract with us.
We did not receive value for our money.
The Monasterio hotel in Cuzco was disappointing - rooms dark and depressing. Extras are extortionate - the room service was twice the price of the Country Club and Marriott. They seem to be resting on their laurels as the "best hotel in Cuzco".
The Country Club hotel in Lima was fabulous - everything was perfect.
The JW Marriott in Quito has a big problem with external noise - club across the road with blaring music to past 2:30 am! The part nearest the noise is on the right as you look at the front of the hotel. We were in room 705 and moved to 736 which was fine.
We had minor problems with the altitude but nothing that warranted medication or oxygen. Some people were less fortunate. It really seems it's the luck of the body.
Overall a great trip, mentally and physically strenuous, but well worth doing. Less

Austin Spirits: Austinites on fast track to debut a new whiskey that is classically Austin
Launch during ACL to ignite word-of-mouth and national exposure
May 19, 2014, 14:30 ET from Austin Spirits from ,9 Banded Whiskey
AUSTIN, Texas, May 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Austin Spirits announces the upcoming introduction of 9 Banded Whiskey, a new product that will be the premier Austin-based whiskey on the market. Led by CEO Gary Crowell, one of the original forces behind the wildly successful Deep Eddy Vodka, and partner Paul Groepler, who launched Austin-based Tequila Ambhar, Austin Spirits will debut 9 Banded Whiskey in October during the Austin City Limits Music Festival.
Crowell and his four partners Sean Foley, Paul Groepler, Whitney Kroenke, and Chris Ogden, see the opportunity in a liquor market where whiskey is one of the fastest growing categories and classic cocktails made with whiskey are making a comeback. Crowell says the distinctly Austin whiskey, branded and named after Texas's beloved nine-banded armadillo, will capture the classic Austin vibe of the 1970s and 80s.
"People are clamoring for more things authentically Austin," said Crowell. "Music venues like the once-iconic Armadillo World Headquarters embody the spirit of 9 Banded Whiskey. It will feel like a piece of Austin that's hard to come by anymore."
Austin locals and visitors will have their first chance to try 9 Banded Whiskey during ACL in October. Crowell added, "ACL attendees are our target demographic: folks who love Austin's vibrant scene and appreciate great music and great whiskey."
Once the product is firmly established in Texas, the company's growth strategy will focus on sports and entertainment industries. The partners have established ties to the University of Texas and Texas A&M, as well as numerous relationships to sports and entertainment organizations nationally.
Austin Spirits will begin scheduling tastings for 9 Banded Whiskey after September 1, 2014.

Say it with us: former President Bush. After eight crazy years, George W. Bush is escaping to Texas, where he plans to work on his memoirs and, one imagines, clear some brush. He leaves a nation in despair. Perhaps his greatest achievement was scaring America into the arms of Barack Obama. Heckuva job, Bushie.
There is no shortage of postmortems on the Bush presidency. E.J. Dionne and Marie Cocco each have summarized his legacy well. Then there are the number charts, this one by ProPublica, for instance. Very disturbing stuff there. When all is said and done, the most comprehensive indictment of the Bush administration is probably Rep. Dennis Kucinich's articles of impeachment. The man may have escaped the long arm of the law, but at least there is a record of his crimes.

Chasetown FC's Reserves collected the league trophy with a convincing 8-0 thumping of Coalville Town.
Their final Midland Combination outing of the season saw them maintain their unbeaten campaign which has seen them claim the title with an impressive 15 point cushion..
Coalville, who had not lost in 2012 came with a game plan to end the Scholars run and started well, going close in the first five minutes when Brent Upton's two efforts were saved by Dominic Hill.
From that point onwards the Chasetown's back four of Jack Hulin, Courtney Sowe, Jamie Aiton and Oliver James took control. They restricted the visitors to just a couple of ambitious long range efforts during the following 85 minutes.
The champions stepped up a gear and started threatening Coalville with wave after wave of fluent passing in a mouth watering display of keep ball as they started to turn the screw.
It was surprising that it took 26 minutes to open the scoring. Karl Edwards rounded Coalville Keeper Daniel James after a clever through ball from the alert James Lunn.
Two further goals were added before the interval as Coalville failed miserably to offer any response to the Scholars onslaught, seeing their 2012 run obliterated within a 15 minute period.
Jonathan Gould's pinpoint pass found Chad Degville ten minutes later and he rocketed home an unstoppable blast from the edge of the box.
At the latter end of the half Lunn was provider again, delivering to the far post and Greg Downes jumped highest to nod home Chasetown's third.
After the break things got worse for the visitors. The Scholars were truly flying and entertained with a five goal second half exhibition.
Downes and Matthew Wood were pulling the strings in midfield while both wingers Gould and Degville launched a multitude of crosses into the danger area.
James blasted home from the edge of the area, Edwards secured his third hat-trick of the season with two stunning volleys.
Stu Birt replaced hero Edwards and was involved in all the remaining action. Other subs, Tom Lowe and Jed Davies also found the net.
Chasetown's second string still have two more cup finals to play as they strive to make it a treble winning season. They travel to league runners up Quorn on April 21 for the final of the Midland Combination Trophy and take on Cheadle in a repeat of last year's Staffs FA Challenge Final at Brocton on April 30.
Chasetown: Hill, James, Sowe, Wood, Hulin, J Aiton, Degville, Downes, Edwards (Lowe), Lunn (Birt), Gould (Davies).
Sub not used: Brown.

Bakery Manager Resume
Free Bakery Manager Resume Example
Compare the best resume writing services for food & restaurant professionals
Thank you for taking the time to view our free bakery manager sample resume. We hope it has been helpful for you.
In the current job market, it can be difficult to get a great job in the field of banquet cooking. Organizations are now swamped by hundreds, even thousands, of resumes for every job opening. It's apparent that with more resumes comes the need for better job application documents.
Going to various resume web sites and copying from good bakery manager resume samples is easy, but it's hardly original or inspiring. Copying and pasting an existing sample resume will never really serve your purpose. You have to assume that any sample resume you are able to find in an online search would have to be an extremely popular resume example. As you may or may not know, search engines move bakery manager resume examples that get the most traffic to the top of search lists.
So, if you duplicate the text and formatting of the popular resume example, so will hundreds of others. Employers are hip to these generic formats, templates, and text used in popular resume examples. Your copy will only bore them.
You should only view bakery manager resume examples as a way to determine the talent level of individual resume writers. It will be crystal clear if the resume writing service knows the banquet cooking industry by scrutinizing their sample resumes. Do the resume experts know the relevant keywords that need to be present throughout bakery manager resumes? How did the resume writer clarify the main objective? Do they only show forgettable templates or do they generate individual formats? Did they provide superior bakery manager cover letter examples? If not, did they demonstrate impressive cover letter writing for other industries?
If you are a qualified bakery manager, and you plan on writing your own resume to compete in a turbulent job market, then be careful how you work with resume examples. If you can't resist the urge to duplicate content, then at least take small bits and pieces from several resume examples and add your own special touches. You wouldn't like to be caught in the act of using the exact same content from an online resume sample that is known to most HR representatives in your industry. And you should find news ways to enhance the format to make your resume a visual stunner. Otherwise, bakery manager resume examples should be viewed strictly as a portfolio presentation of resume writing services. If a writer service that claims to possess extensive expertise in writing banquet cooking resumes, you'll need to inspect their web site carefully.
You should review the web site and see if the service offers helpful tips for bakery managers. Do they know which banquet cooking keywords need to be present? What other advice do they give to banquet cooking professionals? Do they provide comprehensive cover letter services? Do they rely on bland cover letter templates? Are all of their resume writers credentialed? Were the writers who developed the resume examples credentialed through a respected organization? Do their writers have superior industry knowledge required to help bakery manager? Did the writer demonstrate the ability to be as objective and critical of their own writing as employers will be? Are the writers above using templates? Do they provide examples that would be survive and excel in today's banquet cooking job market? If the resume service provides quality info on their web site, as well as excellent bakery manager resume examples, then call them today.
Notable Keywords: bakery manager cover letter examples, CV examples, curricula vitae examples, curriculum vitaes, bakery manager CVs.

2013 Finalist Presentation Workshop
Prior to the annual live competition a workshop is conducted to prepare the children for presenting their inventions to the finalist judges. Teaching the workshop this year were USF assistant professor Dr. Emily Ryalls and EASA Software CEO and 5-time finalist judge Dr. Sebastian Dewhurst.
Dr. Ryalls advised finalists that being nervous was perfectly normal and actually gives speakers an edge with a rush of adrenaline. Everyone has "butterflies" when they give a big presentation…the key is to get those butterflies to "fly in formation." Another key topic covered by Dr. Ryalls is how to organize their presentation into logical stages and keep things brief.
Dr. Dewhurst gave the audience and acronym to remember: NBAC which stands for "needs, benefits, advantages and costs." Relaying each of these topics to a judge (or investor) conveys the value of the invention most efficiently. Both presenters advised the finalists to hold back on revealing their invention until they've established the problem they seek to solve and build some anticipation for the solution.
All those attending noted the inventions and presentations were some of the best ever presented in the competition and there is great anticipation for Monday night's event.

The Board of Governor's statement (see text below) outlined in general terms what West Virginia University had done in response to the demands of head coach Rich Rodriguez. The list is an extensive one.
However, Kendrick, in comments to ESPN, maintained that West Virginia came up far short in meeting promises that it reportedly made to Rodriguez. That failure, according to Kendrick, is grounds for default on the $4 million dollar buyout in his contract.
Some of those items include allowing players to keep textbooks from classes for resale, waiving of a $5 charge for high school coaches to attend West Virginia games, contorl of sideline passes, the authority to allocate funds from the 1100 Club (funds that were earmarked solely to support football recruiting), increased pay for assistant coaches, and authority to hire more graduate assistants and a recruiting coordinator.
It was not clear as to whether or not these demands and promises were part of Rodriguez' formal contract.
The request to allocate some funds from the 1100 Clbu for "coaches" would seem to be outside the bounds of the stated purpose of the Club, which is to help pay for the cost of travel to conduct recruiting, as well as other expenses involved with the process.
Additionally, while Kendrick noted that Rodriguez "had to negotiate for a sideline pass for his wife, Rita" it should be noted that Mrs. Rodriguez routinely watched games from a suite in the stadium. Numerous ex-players, boosters and others received sideline passes for games, some of which were distributed by members of the football staff.
These statements will likely be just the opening salvo in what promises to be a long, and perhaps costly, battle between Rodriguez and his former employer over the buyout.
"WVU appreciates donors to its academic and athletic programs. The University and the Board listen to their suggestions, as we listen to students, alumni, faculty and staff. People who are successful in other areas of life often have important insights into how we operate, how we are perceived, and how we can improve the University.
At the end of the day, the University is governed by its Board and its President, and the people they appoint to positions of responsibility. Making donations to a public university does not entitle anyone to dictate policy or personnel.
The Board has a lot of confidence in how Ed Pastilong and Mike Garrison are handling this coaching change. They've taken a responsible approach to this throughout – and really offered Coach Rodriguez and the team a lot of support in a very difficult time for the team. We're heard a lot of support from fans, from alumni, and from donors – large and small – about how the University is handling this.
WVU went to the ends of the earth to keep the coach here – and clearly, some of our major donors assisted the school in that effort. ? His salary was increased by 70 percent. ? His assistants salaries were increased ? We built a $2 million academic center for the team ? We have started construction on a $6 million locker room renovation
There were some very minor issues that he raised with the administration – and people were working on them. I think you will agree that the things that are being talked about are pretty minor in comparison to what has been done already.
But he clearly was looking for excuse to leave—he looked last year, and again this year.
But when he went to visit another team, and then came back to campus with demands based on those minor issues – university officials simply told him they would continue to work the issues. He was asked to focus on the student athletes and the upcoming bowl game. There's a long off-season coming up to work out those sorts of minor issues. Whoever comes in as coach will know that they can count on support from WVU on big issues and small issues."

Spokane County Bracing For More Mosquitoes
Spokane County officials are preparing for an elevated number of mosquitoes in the area.
Standing water after this week's rain can act as a breeding ground as temperatures warm up again.
Some Washington and Idaho cities spray insecticides in the air with fog trucks or stock ponds with fish to keep the bugs at bay.
Over in Omak, city leaders said there has not been enough money to spray for mosquitoes the past three years. Residents feel the problem is out of control.
Spokane County does not have an office specifically assigned to mosquito control. The county relies heavily on 'do-it-yourself' pest control methods, including emptying water from containers like bird baths, pet food bowls, and flower pots at least once a week.
Mosquitoes typically just cause red bumps and itching but mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus are always a dangerous concern. The disease spreads more quickly in warmer weather.

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Telstra Corp., Australia's largest telecommunications company, said Thursday that it has reached an 11 billion Australian ($12 billion) deal with the government to participate in the rollout of a fiber optic national broadband network that will be among the world's fastest.
Telstra, a former government-owned monopoly that still owns the nation's aging copper wire communications infrastructure, which it leases to competitors, has agreed to progressively disconnect that infrastructure and participate in the rollout of the AU$36 billion national broadband network, known as the NBN.
Telstra said in a statement the agreement will deliver AU$11 billion over decades in replacement revenue through disconnection payments, and new revenues through payments for access to its infrastructure.
Telstra services will migrate to the NBN over its expected 10-year construction.
Telstra will also provide NBN Co., the project's government-owned builder, with access to its infrastructure — such as exchange space, conduits and ducts — for a period of 35 to 40 years.
Telstra chief executive David Thodey said the deal, which was negotiated over two years, would not have any material impact on the company's fiscal 2012 financial results, because the AU$11 billion will be paid over decades.
"These agreements represent an important milestone in addressing much of the uncertainty for Telstra associated with the NBN and government regulation and allow us to focus intently on our customer service and simplification strategy," Thodey said in a statement, referring to separate agreements with the government and NBN Co.
The government has already begun rolling out the network, which will deliver broadband speeds of 100 megabits per second to 90 percent of Australian homes, schools and businesses through fiber-optic cables connected directly to buildings.
The new speeds are 100 times faster than most Australians currently get — enough to watch multiple high-quality downloads of movies or television shows at once from the same connection.
A handful of countries — South Korea, Japan, France and Germany among then — currently have comparable speeds.
The plan to make Australians one of the most wired people in the world with uniform Internet access is made more challenging by the vast and scarcely populated Outback, which separates the major coastal cities.
Without Telstra's cooperation, the government planned to proceed by duplicating Telstra's infrastructure.
The conservative opposition argues the plan is too expensive.
The opposition Liberal party went to elections in August last year promising to deliver a smaller, slower — but much less expensive — AU$6 billion network with a range of technologies, including optical fiber, wireless and DSL.

The Australian Shareholders' Association has called on
However, the association believes that neither Mr Mason nor the two directors, Steve Vamos and Leigh Clapham, should be fined or forced to step down from the board.
"The chairman made a mistake and he should admit this, apologise and move on," ASA spokesman
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission is inquiring into the share trading and will take into account factors such as the extent of harm or loss and the benefits of pursuing any misconduct before it decides whether to pursue a formal investigation. The regulator is examining emails sent between Mr Mason and the two directors.
ASA's sympathetic stance
While David Jones' major shareholders are up in arms about the share trading, the ASA has adopted a more sympathetic stance and believes that Mr Mason, Mr Vamos and Mr Clapham erred by underestimating the sensitivity of the sales figures and the ensuing sharemarket reaction.
"It was a modest amount of money, it wasn't before an earnings result, only a normally less price-sensitive sales announcement," Mr Mayne told The Australian Financial Review. "Only a modest amount of shares was involved and none of the directors were to know that the share price would take off."
The share trading issue has become a point of leverage for shareholders unhappy with the proposed departure of chief executive
Mr Vamos and Mr Clapham bought 12,500 and 20,000 shares on-market three days after accounts closed for the October quarter and three days before the figures were released.
First-quarter same-store sales rose for the first time in nine months, beating market expectations. David Jones shares soared as much as 15 per cent to a high of $3.08, compared with the $2.67 and $2.69 a share paid by Mr Vamos and Mr Clapham.
Share trading policy
Mr Mason and Mr Vamos have told the AFR the shares were bought within the company's official trading window, directors received clearance beforehand, in line with company policy, and the quarterly sales data was not market sensitive. "It comes down to judgment as to how material those sales figures are," Mr Vamos said last week.
However, fund mangers disagree, pointing to the fact that the sales figures are marked price sensitive when they are sent to the stock exchange. "Sales figures for a retailer not price sensitive?? Mmmm," Perpetual deputy head of equities Paul Skamvougeras tweeted on Monday after the AFR revealed that ASIC was looking into the share trades.
Under David Jones's share trading policy, it is illegal for directors to trade in the company's shares if they possess unpublished price-sensitive information concerning the company.
Mr Mayne said Mr Vamos and Mr Clapham were "caught by circumstances" and should not face fines or be forced to step down from the board.
"We don't think anyone should resign – we want to see directors buy more shares," Mr Mayne said. "But we do agree it's a bad look and we think the chairman should get out of the bunker and admit his error and move on."

Mountain View CA (SPX) Jan 16, 2013
ECAPS has announced its first commercial flight contract in the U.S., with Skybox Imaging (Skybox), an emerging provider of timely imagery services. ECAPS will design and manufacture a complete High Performance Green Propulsion (HPGP) system for Skybox's third Earth observation satellite.
"This initial HPGP system will serve to qualify the system design for subsequent Skybox satellites," said Mathias Persson, President of ECAPS. "We are proud to partner with Skybox and look forward to supplying them with both this initial system, as well as propulsion systems for their future constellation of satellites."
ECAPS' flight-proven HPGP technology, which utilizes the Ammonium Dinitramide (ADN)-based monopropellant designated LMP-103S, is environmentally benign and significantly easier to both transport and handle than monopropellant hydrazine.
These favorable characteristics provide increased flexibility to spacecraft manufacturers whose mission concepts require the ability to launch from various sites around the world. In addition, HPGP has demonstrated higher on-orbit performance than traditional hydrazine systems.
"ECAPS' HPGP propulsion system will provide our spacecraft nearly twice the on-orbit delta-V of the more traditional monopropellant systems. This level of performance will give our constellation of small satellites significant mission flexibility, enabling us to provide higher quality, more timely data to our customers," said Jonny Dyer, Chief Engineer of Skybox.
"Early adoption of green propellants is well aligned with our innovative, environmentally responsible culture and this contract makes us the first company in the U.S. to leverage this technology.
In addition, the handling and safety advantages of the HPGP system provide us the lowest projected life cycle cost of the technologies we analyzed."The contract marks the beginning of a long-term partnership between Skybox and ECAPS to develop propulsion systems for Skybox's constellation of Earth observation satellites.
ATK, ECAPS' industrial partner in the U.S., is also a key supplier for the project, with content to include the development of propellant tanks at its Commerce, Calif., facility and the capability to assemble HPGP systems for future Skybox constellation builds at its Beltsville, Md. facility.
ATK also provides the ability to blend HPGP propellant at its facility in Elkton, Md.
