Quick GuideHeart Disease: Symptoms, Signs, and Causes
What are the long-term results of percutaneous coronary intervention?
Long-term benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention depend on the maintenance of the newly-opened coronary artery(ies). Thirty to fifty percent of patients with successful balloon angioplasty (no stent) may develop recurrent narrowing (restenosis) at the site of the balloon inflation, usually within six months following percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients may complain of recurrence of angina or may have no symptoms. Restenosis is often detected by exercise stress tests performed at four to six months after percutaneous coronary intervention. Restenosis occurs with a significantly higher frequency in people with diabetes. The rate of restenosis is greater in vein grafts, at the origins of vessels, in the beginning part of the left anterior descending coronary artery, and in those with suboptimal initial results. The widespread use of intracoronary stents has reduced the incidence of restenosis by as much as 50% or more; this is due to prevention of "elastic recoil" in the artery, as well as providing a larger initial channel in the treated artery. With the newer medicated stents, the restenosis rate is well under 10%.
Restenosis can simply be observed or treated with medications if the narrowing is not critical and the patient is not symptomatic. Some patients undergo a repeat percutaneous coronary intervention to increase coronary artery blood flow. Second percutaneous coronary intervention procedures have similar initial and long-term results as first procedures, although certain patterns of restenosis have a very high repeat recurrence rate. Sometimes, CABG surgeries are recommended for those patients who have developed more extensive disease in the restenosed artery as well as in the other coronary arteries. Patients may also choose CABG surgery to avoid the uncertainty of restenosis after the second percutaneous coronary intervention. In patients with restenosis after balloon angioplasty or stents, the use of intracoronary radiation (brachytherapy) may reduce the risk of future restenosis. If no evidence of restenosis is observed after six to nine months, studies have demonstrated that the treated arterial segment is likely to remain open for many years. "Late restenosis" after one year or more is very uncommon. Symptoms developing more than one year after successful percutaneous coronary intervention are usually due to blockage in a different segment of the artery or in a different artery from that which was treated in the initial percutaneous coronary intervention.

Keywords: Lake Home
We loved our stay at this great property. The lake was larger than we had thought and the kids made the most of their lake time with us, tubing, sking, wake boarding and stand up paddle board. Absolutely the only draw back was the mucky bottom. All and All we had a great time. Thanks Sean.
What a wonderful property - very spacious and plenty of room for 5 teenage boys and my husband and I. Everything very clean and the whole process was very easy - Sean was accommodating in answering all my questions and checked in on us to make sure we were able to get into property without any problems. Everything provided was great from the fully stocked kitchen to even laundry soap and dryer sheets. The large deck was great to sit and relax early in the morning right thru to the evening. The lake was a perfect size and during the week we were pretty much the only ones on it. Whether you bring your own boat or rent something, the boat launch is right next to the property so easy access. The lake is shallow and not much sand areas, but kids weren't bothered by it at all. The only thing I would suggest was that the DVD player was connected to the TV in living room area. There is a flat screen with DVD player attached in the first floor bedroom but not enough room for the group to watch something together. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in the future. Beautiful and very relaxing!
The house is filled with newer appliances, a nice television, and very comfortable beds. Between the central air and the ceiling fans, you will be cool no matter what the temperature outside is. This place has ample amounts of towels, cleaning supplies, chairs, blankets, and space to accommodate you and your guests.
The lake itself is shallow (about 5ft deep at the deepest point) but the bottom is fairly sandy and it is a very clean lake. I was with a person that has very sensitive skin and she usually gets sores or rashes from lake water. She did not has any issues during our stay and neither did I.
The canoe that comes with the rental is big enough for 4 people and comes with paddles/oars. When you are not on the lake, the deck area is a great place to lounge and play games. The nearby towns/cities of Wautoma, Wild Rose, and Waupaca have great places to eat and lots of outdoor activities. The owner is easy to work with and is responsive to email and phone calls.
We had a great time. The place was clean and beautiful. The lake is a bit shallow for waterskiing but we did it anyway. We had great fishing right off the dock. My daughter caught a 14 in Large Mouth Bass. She was so excited! We also love the giant porch which was well shaded. The pictures were a very good representation of what the cottage was like.
Thanks for the great vacation.
Our family of four enjoyed a relaxing winter getaway to the lake. Kids were tired at night after hiking on the ice and playing outside. Nordic Mountain for downhill skiing was just minutes away which is nice. House was spotless and clean. By far the nicest place we have stayed on Irogami Lake. We will definitely stay here again.
We rented this summer before last. It is a beautiful house and just as comfy as can be! It is too bad that the lake sucks. It is so shallow and weedy that you cannot swim! Too bad the house couldn't be moved somewhere else. If it wasnt for the lake we would have come back every summer!

As I was asking myself about Tom, I remembered its the room I saw my half sisters boobs in when I was 4, seeing my dad accidentally once as he got out of the shower,also... when I was 4 and by then traumatized.
It is also where I had my first sip of Coca Cola.
Later when I turned 18 and had met and was living with my other half, we lived in that room. Just very odd memories from the room in the back of the house.

Sylvie Buisson will include this painting in her forthcoming catalogue of the works by Tsuguharu Foujita.
Fillette à la poupée was painted in 1918, a critical year for Foujita during which he began to benefit from commercial success and develop his own unique style. The son of a senior medical officer with the Japanese brigades, Foujita moved around frequently as a child. After his mother's death when the artist was only five years old, he moved in with and was raised by his older sister. From the beginning, Foujita had a penchant for the arts. He was the brightest drawing student at his high school, where one of his gouaches was chosen to be shown at the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1900. This encouraged the budding artist, and was his first remote contact with France. Three years later he began to study French at night school and after completing his studies at university, he left his native Japan in search of a career in Paris.
Upon his arrival in Paris, Foujita went straight to Montparnasse, then the epicenter of artistic activity. He quickly met the many other foreign artists living in Montparnasse: Amedeo Modigliani, Jules Pascin, Chaïm Soutine, Moise Kisling, Ossip Zadkine, Jacques Lipchitz, Alexander Archipenko and Louis Marcoussis had all come to Paris within the last ten years. Foujita would socialize with these artists in the famous cafés of Montparnasse, La Rotonde and Le Dôme, where the constant exchange of ideas helped the young artist develop his own art. After six months in Montparnasse, he was introduced to Pablo Picasso, most likely by Diego Rivera, though there are conflicting accounts over this fact. Foujita studied everything in Picasso's studio, and was most struck by the works of Le Douanier Rousseau. Rousseau's simple, naïve style of painting greatly influenced Foujita, and is echoed in his work.
Life was difficult for the young artist for the first few years after his arrival in Paris. He lived, as most of his artist friends, in abject poverty. Unable to afford oil paints, he produced many watercolors, mostly landscapes. Fortuitously, the dealer Georges Chéron took an interest in these watercolors, and gave the artist his first exhibition in June 1917. The show was not a grand success, but Chéron felt encouraged enough to organize a second exhibition in November of the same year, which was met with better results. Despite the small level of renown Foujita was beginning to attain, he found it nearly impossible to make a living out of painting in wartime Paris. Apart from Chéron, who paid Foujita very meagerly, the only other dealer who was interested in his work was Léopold Zborowski. During the summer of 1918 Zborowski took Foujita, along with Soutine and Modigliani, who he was also representing, to Cagnes in the hopes of selling to rich patrons in the south of France. The mission was not successful and the artist returned to Paris broke again, and had to resort to selling his clothes for money. With the end of the war, however, things began to look up for Foujita. He met the Swiss lawyer Henri Seeholzer, who introduced him to future patrons. He began to receive commissions and exhibit with more frequency, soon becoming an infamous presence in the art world.
Also in 1918, Foujita developed a new style, in many ways a cross between Eastern and Western techniques. He began to prepare canvases himself in order to obtain a white, creamy, almost glossy surface upon which he could trace the outlines of his figures with the tip of a very fine brush, evoking the appearance of sumi, a medium which is used in Japanese ink paintings and calligraphy. Indeed, the black lines often remain visible in Foujita's finished pictures, with a thin layer of fluid paint applied evenly so as not to disrupt the painting's surface. The introduction of these Japanese elements in his Western paintings served the artist well. At this time the atmosphere of japonisme still lingered, after artists like Claude Monet, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Vincent van Gogh had incorporated elements of Japanese culture into their compositions. For Foujita to incorporate such elements into his works, reminded the art world of his exotic origins, while simultaneously linking him to a tradition of venerated artists.
Fillette à la poupée was painted at the height of this development in his oeuvre. A little girl sits stoically, with her arms crossed over a small doll. She stares directly out, confronting the viewer with her gaze. Her large, round eyes invite us into her world, yet simultaneously block us out with their blank expression. This very proper young girl embodies the elegant draftsmanship Foujita was admired for. His fluid style is not overly detailed, but precise--in particular the thin black lines of her nose, eyebrows and the cleft in her upper lip, painted upon creamy white skin; the lines of her body which detach her from the background and give her the impression of a cut out; and lastly her perfect, small, sweet hands which are almost like a doll's themselves. Her upright somberness mimics that of the doll she holds in her arms, and the ribbon in her hair is the same pink as the doll's dress. Perhaps this is a double vision, an image of two small dolls--one human and one toy. Foujita's mastery of the line, combined with his restrained and subtle coloring, reveals a sensitivity which lends an element of extreme beauty to a very humble character.

Gilchrist, Beal lead East to win in McDonald's All American Game
CHICAGO Bob Cimmino saw this coming. Cimmino, the boys basketball coach at Mount Vernon, N.Y., was asked who surprised him in practices for Wednesday's McDonald's All American high school basketball games.
"I would say two things surprised me," Cimmino said. "One, Michael Gilchrist's leadership. I knew him as a great player. I didn't know him as a leader and Brad Beal seems to be one of those guys who will play better for you once the lights come on."
Cimmino was talking the day before Gilchrist, a Kentucky signee from St. Patrick (Elizabeth, N.J.), scored 16 points, pulled down 12 rebounds and dished four assists and Florida signee Brad Beal of Chaminade (St. Louis) had 17 points and four assists to lead Cimmino's East team to a 111-96 win over the West. The sellout crowd of 20,019 at the United Center was the most in the 34-year history of the game. The largest previous total was 18,728 in 2003 at Cleveland's Gund Arena when LeBron James played.
Gilchrist, a 6-7 forward from St. Patrick (Elizabeth, N.J.), who has signed with Kentucky, helped overcome a big effort from another Wildcat signee, Anthony Davis of Perspectives Charter (Chicago). The West team's starting center had 14 points, six rebounds, four blocks and two steals.
"I had to represent Chicago," said Davis, who added he felt a little extra pressure because a shoulder injury meant that Morgan Park (Chicago) forward Wayne Blackshear was limited to four minutes in each half.
Another key player for the East was North Carolina signee James McAdoo of Norfolk (Va.) Christian, who had 17 points. The largest crowd he had ever played before was 3,000.
"That was at (East Carolina) when I played against Reggie Bullock (as a junior)," McAdoo said. "That prepared me a little bit. When I first came out tonight, I had the jitters a little bit, but as the game went on, I got into the flow of the game."
In the girls game, Duke signee Elizabeth Williams of Princess Anne (Virginia Beach) scored 23 points and had 11 rebounds and Tennessee signee Ariel Massengale of Bolingbrook, Ill., had 13 points and four assists to lead the East to a 78-66 defeat of the West.
"During the first half, coach just talked to us about defense," Massengale said. "She (Dorothy Gaters of Marshall High in Chicago) said if we played defense as a team, then our offense would come. Defensively, we locked down and stopped them, which made it easier for us to get something at the offensive end."
Williams' total was a McDonald's girls record, breaking the old mark of 22 by WNBA player Alexis Hornbuckle, then of South Charleston, W.Va., in 2004.
"I just tried to rebound well and that got me some easy shots," Williams said. She said she didn't know she had a shot at the record.
"Bria (Goss) told me and then she told coach and then coach put me back in," Williams said. "That's when I figured it out."
Connecticut signee Brianna Banks of Fayette County (Fayetteville, Ga.) led the West team with 17 points.

DENVER -- Venezuelan right-hander Jhoulys Chacin (JOE-lease cha-SEEN) forced his way to the top of the Colorado Rockies' prospect list when he went 18-3 with a 2.03 ERA at Class A in 2008.
He wasn't quite as sharp last year, posting a combined 9-8 mark with a 3.21 ERA at Class AA and AAA, but pitched well enough to get called up in July at 21.
His early success out of the bullpen persuaded Rockies manager Jim Tracy to give him a start, but Chacin walked six and gave up four runs in 2 2/3 innings during it.
His marching orders out of spring training this year were to work on his fastball command, and his improvement in that area earned Chacin a promotion when starters Jorge De La Rosa and Jason Hammel were injured. He was 3-2 with a 3.09 ERA through six major league games (five starts) this year.
Sports Weekly's Jorge L. Ortiz chatted with him in Spanish.

Former big-leaguer I admire most
One thing I won't miss about the minor leagues
One thing fans don't know about me
What I enjoy most about playing in Denver
Seven up, seven down
How have you handled pitching at a high altitude?
Sometimes it's hard. You just have to focus on what you're doing without worrying about what might happen. It's really important to keep the ball down because the ball really carries here.
How do your breaking pitches work at Coors Field?
My slider is fine, but the few times I've pitched here, my curveball and changeup haven't been as good as in other ballparks. When I pitched here in relief, I could rely on my fastball and slider, but as a starter, I need all my pitches.
What did you learn from your nine outings in the majors last year?
Not to get down on myself. I didn't do very well in my start, but I kept working, and now I'm back here. I went back down, but I waited for my time, and it has come.
How much did it help you to pitch for the Caracas club in winter ball?
It was big. We got big crowds, and I faced lots of good players there, guys like Pablo Sandoval. So it's a very good preparation for coming here.
Where does the name Jhoulys come from?
I don't really know. I think it comes from a song, but my parents have never really explained it to me. They wanted to give us unique names. My sister's name is Jhoulayle and my brother's Jhousberth.
Did you expect such instant success this year?
I expected to be able to do the job, pitch six or seven innings. The way I was feeling at Triple-A, I thought, "If you can do it here, you can do it there. You've already been up there." You just need to be able to throw your fastball for strikes. I didn't expect to have all those scoreless innings (152/3 in a row), but I was confident I would do well.
What did you do to go from prospect to major leaguer?
I worked on attacking hitters with my fastball and then finishing them off with a breaking pitch.

A 63 year old man presented with sudden onset of pain in his left hemi-scrotum. Despite oral warfarin therapy the plasma INR was only 1.4 at presentation. Doppler ultrasound scan of the scrotum confirmed absent blood flow to the left testis with increased echogenicity. Orchidectomy was performed to remove the necrotic testis. Post-operatively the patient did well and was referred to the Regional Haemophilia and Thrombosis Centre for further management.
The case highlights a rare but potential complication of protein S deficiency and demonstrates the importance of adequate anticoagulation in these patients.
Protein S deficiency is a rare blood disorder which is a risk factor for thrombophilia. It affects around 1 in 20000 of the population
The most common cause of acquired protein S deficiency is pregnancy. Acquired protein S deficiency may be seen in some patients who have developed disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE). The treatment of protein s deficiency is systemic anticoagulation with warfarin or a similar agent. Testicular infarction is a rare but recognised complication of thrombophilia.
Case presentation
A 63 year old man presented to his General Practitioner with a history of left sided testicular pain for 24 hours. The pain had increased with time. He was referred to the Accident and Emergency Department of our hospital where he was examined and an ultrasound scan arranged. He had no urinary symptoms. He was currently under the care of the haematology department with protein S deficiency. He had a history of DVT and PE in 1965 and received anticoagulation therapy with warfarin for a year. The diagnosis of protein S deficiency was made in 1993, after investigation for recurrent leg ulceration, and therapy with warfarin and subsequently low molecular weight heparin commenced. At presentation his International Normalised Ratio (INR) was sub-therapeutic at 1.4, despite daily oral administration of 6 mg of Warfarin daily. The patient also self administered 1 mg/kg of enoxaparin since diagnosed in 1993. The patient had neither previous cardiovascular history nor clinical evidence of atrial fibrillation.
Ultrasonography of the left testis demonstrated increased echogenicity around the head of the epididymus in particular, suggesting haematoma. The echogenicity of the testis was abnormal and no blood flow was demonstrated on Doppler interrogation. At surgery a left groin incision was made with the cord was clamped near the internal ring. The testis and epididymus were haemorrhagic and necrotic and there was no evidence of torsion.
Histological examination revealed a necrotic testis. The blood vessels were congested with evidence of thrombus. No obvious emboli were present. There was no evidence of carcinoma. Post surgery the patient recovered well and was commenced on clopidogrel 75 mg and enoxaparin 100 mg daily. He was referred to the Regional Haemophilia and Thrombosis Centre for further management. He has since been reviewed and is well.
We believe this to be only the second such case of testicular infarction secondary to protein S deficiency reported in the world literature
Testicular infarction secondary to Protein S deficiency is exceedingly rare. The patient presents with symptoms of testicular pain. On examination, the scrotum may be red, swollen and tender and may mimic the clinical examination of a patient with testicular torsion. The pathophysiology of this clinical picture is congestion and thrombosis of the venous and arterial blood supply to the testis. Infarction of other organs such as brain, heart, spleen and more commonly recognised as sequelae of the condition.
Protein S deficiencies are associated with superficial and deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism
The management of Protein S deficiency involves initial heparinisation at the time of the initial presentation followed by commencement on warfarin. In this case the patient's INR was sub therapeutic at 1.4. Levels greater than 2.0 are required to provide adequate anticoagulation. It is surprising that his INR was low as he attended the haematology clinic every fortnight for monitoring of his INR. What is more surprising is that this event occurred despite subcutaneous enoxaparin injection. It may be that patient compliance with both oral warfarin and subcutaneous enoxaparin was poor. Warfarin-induced skin necrosis may occur in these patients on initiation of warfarin therapy. This reflects a reduction in the level of protein S before the level of prothrombin is lowered into the therapeutic range. In this condition prothrombin levels stimulate the formation of venous thrombi by an unclear mechanism. These patients usually require a change to heparin therapy
Protein S deficiency has been associated with arterial as well as venous occlusion
Fluctuations in protein S levels are also common including in healthy members of the population
Learning points
1. Testicular infarction is a rare complication of inadequate anticoagulation in patients with pro-thrombotic conditions.
2. Ultrasound scanning is a useful modality in confirming the diagnosis in these patients.
3. A dilemma arises in the case of a young man with thrombilia and possible testicular torsion. The history and ultrasound findings could be identical but if the aetiology was due to thrombosis would systemic anticoagulation with low molecular weight heparins be more suitable than surgery? And how would one differentiate between the two?
4. Testicular infarction due to causes other than torsion or trauma is very rare. It would be useful to screen these patients for Protein S deficiency and other pro-clotting conditions.
INR – International Normalised Ratio.
DIC – Disseminated Intra-vascular Coagulation.
DVT – Deep Vein Thrombosis.
P.E – Pulmonary Embolism.
APC – Activated Protein C.

How to graduate as a successful edupreneur
Education is the most important venture as it directly plunks on the overall development of a child and his upbringing in the society. Here is an insight to run preschools successfully while maintaining high quality standards at multiple locations.
Co- Founder and CEO, Eurokids
For establishing a successful franchise business the crucial aspect is managing uniform standards of delivery for customers across the length & breadth of the network. The crucial question is- How can one ensure that our customer's experiences is the same in a leading metro city and in a tier- III town of India?
The answer to the question
A good mix of defined processes, guidelines, ongoing training, apt use of technology and resource management makes this possible. At EuroKids the epitome of managing uniform service across the network is more crucial since we are responsible for nurturing young minds who are taking their first step out of home experience. At playschools special care has to be taken to ensure the safety, hygiene, security, and the developmentally appropriate curriculum of the kid. All these can be delivered through trained staff and hence ongoing audit becomes an integral part of the franchise offering.
Method to grow edu biz
Since, the first day of inception, edupreneurs' constant endeavour should be to create & improve the processes to suit the growing needs of the business and operational expansion in far-flung locations. Close monitoring of the processes and timely reporting of deviations ensures compliance and improvement in quality of standards at the playschools.
- Good use of technology, direct and indirect manual interventions to make audits effective should be the aim for all the education brand franchisors.
- Constitute a team of academic co- ordinators to ensure the delivery of curriculum as per the daily teaching plan and paced accordingly.
- Conduct surprise checks and review of CCTV footage to ensure kids are treated with care all the time.
External support
We have introduced the ETAT - EuroKids Teacher Assessment Tool, an online platform that aims to first on board the right talent and then imparts the necessary skills to be a EuroKids educator. Taking the objective of safety first for the students a step further, we have joined hands with a leading safety audit & certification agency that will help us ensure the safest pre-school environment for the kids. However, some edupreneurs also use the services of external agencies to conduct mystery audits at regular intervals to monitor various facets of their franchise centres across the country.

Much to my disappointment my experience of Kubuntu was sort lived and rather painful. Everything had gone very well up until the updates had finished downloading. After restarting I could no longer connect to the net with my USB modem no matter what I tried. After deciding to go back to Ubuntu I made a mistake with the uninstall and broke the monkey!
So, no way to connect to the Internet a dead dragon and a broken monkey and all on a Friday night, well to some it might sound like a great start to the evening but for me I simply turned off and left alone...
...Sunday I decided to fix this mess. Since I only had an 'Alternate CD' I had no full version of Gutsy Gibbon so with the help (and VERY considerable patience) of my partner I downloaded from a mirror site via Ubuntu. Came home. Inserted CD, commenced install...oh wait...better just verify the CD integrity. What is this? 1 file has an error. Oh joy. So back on the motorcycle and downloaded another copy from a different mirror. Guess what? Same error. So after getting the second bad MD5 Checksum I decided to do the honourable thing and went to the Ubuntu Forums for some sage advice.
Sure enough it came. Use Torrent (I used bittorrent) to download a .torrent version of the Gutsy Gibbon .iso, this would compare both files and only download/fix the corrupted portions. Sure enough it fixed the problem in a matter of seconds. One 500Kb file was ruining it for the other 695MB, damn free-riders eh?
So home. Verified the CD integrity (again) commenced install. 30mins later I was staring at Ubuntu once again. The monkey was back. Then I wrote my wvdial.conf file for my 3G HUAWEI USB Modem and connected to the world wide web the first time. Then in came all the upgrade. Less then 2 hours later my updated and tweaked Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon was as I remembered it.
...Or was it?
What is this? Sleek graphics, windows that wobble...and yes windows that explode into flames when closed
...and yes the cube!
All there, working perfectly, no jumping, no slow down, just perfect sleek compiz generated eye-candy. The monkey was back and better then ever. It seems that my fresh install of Ubuntu was better then my original upgrade. Returning all the sexy eye-candy that Feisty Fawn had given me.
So now things are better then ever. Who says a bit of eye-candy is not good for improving a relationship? In my case I could not be happier and with no hesitation I can say that this is truly the most versatile and impressive operating system out there today. So the dragon may be dead, but long live the monkey (well until April when the Heron arrives!).
Until then I stand by open source for the open minded and Ubuntu, Linux for human beings.

New Delhi: A Delhi Court on Monday dismissed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Somnath Bharti's anticipatory bail plea in the domestic violence case filed against him by his wife Lipika Mitra.
Lipika had filed a complaint with the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) in June, accusing him of domestic violence and mental torture since 2010.
Bharti was earlier named in an FIR filed under several Sections of the Indian Penal code (IPC), including domestic violence and attempt to murder.
Lipika had said that she was ready to face any consequence if the accusations made by her are proved wrong.
"Bharti being a leader and a responsible citizen should not do whatever he is doing. If charges against him ( Somnath Bharti) are proved wrong, I'm ready to face any consequences," Mitra told ANI earlier.
Lipika has been married to Bharti since 2010, but has been living separately from him since 2012 along with the couple's two children in a rented accommodation in Dwarka.

how does stealth technology shield aircraft from radar Stealth technology also termed LO technology
(low observable technology)
is a sub-discipline of military tactics and passive electronic countermeasures,
which cover a range of techniques used with personnel,
aircraft, ships, submarines, and missiles, to make them less visible (ideally invisible) to radar,
infrared,sonar and other detection methods. With regard to radar, there are two components to stealth - absorption and deflection. Through the shape of the object, it is possible to deflect the radar waves away from the source. And with special materials (iron ferrites generally) it is possible to absorb a large portion of the radar. Some times the cartels use the stealth technology
for transport drugs or people to the U.S.They used stealth technology in boats when it more amount. This is the main method employed for locating aircraft, for both civilian and military purposes, and involves bouncing a radio signal off an object, which can then be detected by a receiver. Stealth aircraft defeat this in two different ways. Firstly, surfaces on the aircraft are constructed out of radar absorbent or transparent material. Secondly, structures within the aircraft are designed to minimize the size of flat areas, which would reflect a signal back at the radar. The structure is built with lots of different facets. When a radar beam hits the aircraft, the radar's energy is deflected away at many different angles so very little of the radar energy is reflected back at the radar receiver.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Business Operations' started by walker-talker, Feb 13, 2011.
This was more clear than your PM
No it doesnt do that
With basic google earth, just use their ruler to measure lines and do your own multiplication for area.
My county's website is much easier than that, but the satellite images are not as clean, but very do-able. I got one with 10 sq ft and another within 30 sg ft. I think the worst was within 500 sq ft...and I might of rushed that one.
If anybody here has a droid, check out "Maps Ruler". I have checked accuracy in miles while driving from point A to point B. Haven't really tried it in feet yet. You can use the gps on the phone and walk the area, or you can go to a specific spot and measure. I assume though, this uses the same images and probably tools as google earth.
Then there's this problem of distinguishing tree canopy from turf, looking straight down from the sky.
goIlawn is much more accurate in winter months when there's no deciduous foliage to shroud grass that could be lying underneath.
Tried quite a few and still can't find a great free one.
i just use zillow.com
it gives you the lot size plus the sq footage of the home, so you are able to gain a pretty good understanding of the actual surface area of the property you will be cutting
You should check out freemaptools.com go to the area calculator. You drop points around the prop like the paid sites but its free! I usually un-click the show markers because the get in the way on small properties. Start dropping points along the drive and around the house then go around the lot line. This gives you a very accurate sq. ft. or acres ( MORE ACCURATE THAN WHEELS) in one measurement. It works good on the new samsung 10.1 tablet with the stylus pen.
I use the free version of google earth with the measuring tool. Then I manually times length and width to get square footage. really only good for open areas. I just did a bid on a commercial property with tons of trees and shrubs that make it difficult to see the grass areas. It has its pros and cons. I still find sometimes it still good to walk the property
Anyone who has an ipad should check out the app "measure it"

To the residents, families and friends associated with Flanders Crossing-Homeowners Association, I'm pleased to let you know that a large contribution was made to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund for the victims and heroes of the Sept. 11 attack on our nation. After dismissing the idea of a "door-to-door" campaign, Maria and I spent several hours in front of the recreation center on Sept. 15, and many, many people contributed funds (and many offered food supplies which the Red Cross had indicated they had too much of already). These contributions were made despite of, or in addition to, the many fund-raising events being held both locally and nationally at the same time. I'd like to thank everyone who contributed, and especially Lisa Farley for her support of our efforts. I'd also like to recognize and thank two young ladies who, after overhearing why my wife and I were sitting in front of the American flag and holding up signs to "Please Help," rode their bicycles back home and came back to make a contribution.
I thought I'd been "cried out," but their contribution was truly beautiful.
The Morristown Red Cross Disaster Relief manager told me that every dollar donated was going to support the people directly affected by the disaster, no adminstrative costs, no salaries, nothing was going to be deducted from our contributions.
Again, my sincere thanks to all who helped, and God bless America.

Race2Recovery are a UK team of volunteers, racing to inspire those who are injured, disabled or facing adversity, by being the first team of predominantly injured servicemen to complete the 9,000km Dakar Rally in South America, January 2013.Icom is providing its IC-F3002 VHF commercial two way radios and accessories. Ian Lockyer, marketing manager of Icom UK, said: 'We chose the IC-F3002 for its simplicity in use in combination with its ruggedness, waterproofing level and battery life. The easy to use controls are intuitive for those that are not used to operating two way radios. Their performance in terms of audio and range for a model of this size is ideal for the project's needs.'The radios will be used during convoy road moves (line of sight comms) allowing the team manager to speak to all team assistance cars and trucks. The six radio units will be divided between the team's three Land Rover Discovery vehicles and two T5 support lorries.They will also be used during overnight stops in between racing stages. More than 200 race teams and 2,500 people will occupy the 1km x1.5km square encampment, so the same VHF handsets will be used for communications between key individuals as they move about.Race2Recovery driver and co-founder Captain Tony Harris said: 'We are incredibly proud that Icom has chosen to support our Dakar Rally campaign.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I gave my tenants 60 days notice to move, if they move out a month early do they need to give notice? I have reason to believe they may be moving out early intending not to pay rent for August. Is there anything I can do?
In the first place, you cannot require more than 20 day's notice of your tenants. Here, it was kind and sensible of you to give them 60 days advance notice, but the City of Seattle has very specific rules about how you terminate a tenancy in Seattle. If you google "Just Cause Seattle tenancy termination" you will find the rule.
Assuming arguendo that your notice is valid, it can be effective July 31. This is because you can't contract around the RLTA. See RCW 59 18 230. Having given them notice, they are under no obligation to give you notice back. I hope this helps. Elizabeth Powell
Using Avvo does not form an attorney client relationship.Ask a similar question
Your tenants are welcome to give their own notice to vacate and move earlier. For a notice to be effective, it must be given at least 20 days before the end of the month for a date that is the last day of the month. RCW 59.18.200. If your tenants move without notice, they are liable for all rent that would accrue for the 30 days following the date they move, i.e. for the next month's rent. RCW 59.18.310.
What can you do? You can sue them for non-payment of rent when the rent falls due if they don't pay. If they're still there, you can give them a three day notice and potentially evict them. If they've moved, you can sue for the money (and any damages) in small claims court for up to $5,000.00 or in another court if there are more damages. You could also hire a collection agent to do it for you.Ask a similar question

No grid adaptation
I'm doing a steady simulation with prescribed velocity values at every node of the velocity-inlet boundary. After convergence, less nodes are found on the inlet boundary and the prescribed velocity values have altered slighly, resulting in lower Reynolds number than I put in the simulation, while I want the inlet to remain exactly as I prescribed it. I think this is due to the mesh adaptation that FLUENT performs automatically. My question therefore is: Can I switch off all adaptation options in FLUENT? No Refinening or coarsening, not on boundaries, no gradient adaptation, etc. I tried to switch everything under Adapt off, but nothing worked so far. Thanks for your help!
Look in the fluent manual how to adapt using a mask so you can prescribe which regions can or can't be refined/coarsened. Turn off dynamic mesh adaption and do it manually so you have more control over the mesh.

Zardana (Arabic: زردنا, also spelled Zerdana or Zirdana) is a village in northwestern Syria, administratively part of Idlib Governorate. The village lies in a relatively flat plain.[1] Nearby localities include Taftanaz to the southeast, al-Fu'ah and Binnish to the south, Maarrat Misrin and Kafriya to the southwest, Kafr Yahmul to the west, Hizano to the northwest, Ibbin to the north, Kafr Nouran to the northeast and Maarra to the east. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) Zardana had a population of 5,767 in the 2004 census.[2]
In the 12th century, during the Crusades, Zardana was a significant fortress town which changed hands several times between the Crusaders and various Muslim powers. In modern times, the residents of the village are mostly employed in the civil service or in agriculture, with the main crops being wheat, barley and olives. The cultivation of the latter is a relatively recent development. Zardana's total land area roughly consists of 2,000 hectares. The health center provides medical care for the residents of Zardana and the surrounding villages. Zardana contains two primary schools and two secondary schools.[3]
Crusader era[edit]
In 1100 Zardana was briefly under the control of the Principality of Antioch, a Crusader state based in Antioch near the Mediterranean coast. In June of that year, Bohemond I of Antioch defeated the Muslim leader Ridwan of Aleppo with the help of Crusader forces based in Zardana. Zardana, which was a strategic fortress between Antioch and Aleppo, was apparently reoccupied by the Muslims soon after.[4] However, in 1110, Tancred easily captured the town from the Muslims after the successful siege he laid against nearby Atarib. The two towns subsequently marked the eastern frontier of the Principality of Antioch.[5] A few years later both towns suffered severe damage as a result of an earthquake.[6] From the time of its conquest by the Crusaders, Robert fitz-Fulk, served as the lord of Zardana, and due to the town's strategic value, became a powerful figure in the Principality of Antioch.[7]
In early August 1119, the combined Muslim forces of Il-ghazi, the Artukid ruler of Mardin, and Toghtekin, the Buyid ruler of Damascus, marched on Zardana after capturing Atarib. The Crusader garrison in the town put up resistance against Il-ghazi's army until surrendering on 12 August. The capture of Atarib and Zardana was a decisive Muslim victory, known as the "Field of Blood," and strengthened the defense of Aleppo. Robert was captured by the Muslim army as he approached Zardana and was later executed in Aleppo. Baldwin II of Jerusalem managed to capture Zardana from the Muslims in the early-1120s and by the time Bohemond II became ruler of Antioch in 1126. Baldwin's success was largely attributed to weakened Muslim control in the area as a result of political upheavals in Aleppo. Zardana was given to Robert's son, William fitz-Fulk.[8]
The Muslim ruler of Aleppo, Aq Sunqur, led an unsuccessful attempt to recapture Zardana in the summer of 1125.[9] The town was attacked by Sawar, an emir ("commander") of Zangi, the new Muslim ruler of Aleppo, during a plunder campaign against Crusader fortress towns between Antioch and Aleppo in 1133-34.[10]
The 13th-century Syrian geographer Yaqut al-Hamawi visited Zardana in the 1220s, during Ayyubid rule, noting that it was "a small town in the neighborhood and to the west of Aleppo."[11]
Modern era[edit]
In the early-mid 20th-century Zardana's houses were constructed of mud brick and wood, unlike most of the villages in the vicinity. The inhabitants largely depended on cultivating wheat and barley and raising livestock. During the French Mandate period, a resident of Zardana attacked a French military vehicle, prompting a French army operation to search for weapons being stored in the village. During the operation, the western part of the village was burned down and several men were detained. Most were pardoned upon the orders of an outside unit commander, but two residents were made to be executed by firing squad. One was killed, while the other was pardoned as a result of the intervention of an elder from nearby Saraqib.[3]

Why It's Important: Protects against hepatitis and kennel cough. This vaccine is incorporated into the DHPP shot.
When Your Dog Needs It: 8 to 12 weeks of age, again at 16 weeks. Recommended that a booster is given one year from the last vaccine.
Why It's Important: Parvo is a contagious virus that can cause death via intestinal distress or cardiovascular failure. Parvo is very dangerous to dogs but is not dangerous to humans.
When Your Dog Needs It: 6 to 8 weeks of age, then every three to four weeks until the dog is 12 to 14 weeks old. Boosters are recommended every three years.
Why It's Important: Canine Distemper is deadly to dogs and can spread easily. This vaccine is often combined with a measles vaccine for increased effectiveness. It should not be administered at the same time as the Parvovirus vaccine.
When Your Dog Needs It: Just after weaning
Why It's Important: Rabies vaccines are regulated by law. This vaccine is especially important because rabies can be transmitted to humans.
When Your Dog Needs It: 3 to 6 months of age for the first shot, with a booster given at 15 months. Some laws require boosters every year; some require them every three years.

Enter Sandman backwards. #creative #metallica cover.

In my early twenties, my friends an I played around video taping (yes, with video tapes!) eating food and then playing it back backwards. Often we would choreograph things so they they looked like they were forwards when when played backwards.
This guy takes it to the next level and earns his internet stardom with a very nice cover of Metallica's "Enter sandman" recorded forwards, but performed and sung backwards so that when it was played backwards it would sound like it should if performed forwards. Got it? Right.

A person who is a non-it-getter Not to be confused with a pussy though the two terms are not always mutually exclusive.
For instance, the term bitch can be broken down into two sub-categories:
Catg1. A person who is easily frightened or weak natured. This can apply to men and women (See Example 1).
Catg2. Primarily consists of women who try to assert their dominance by acting hyper-masculine while also secretly craving the support and direction of a man (See Example 2).
Some liberal elites would have you believe that bitch is also an acceptable term for a female dog. But as we all know, a dog is man's best friend. And man's best friend can't be a bitch. Moving on.

Too Short: Carnival Fascination Cruise Review by Paddy41
Overall Member Rating
Too Short
Destination: Bahamas
Embarkation: Jacksonville
We had spent a week at a resort in Kissimmee prior to the cruise and drove to Jacksonville the day before. We stayed at the Candlewood Suites, Merrill Rd. It was very close to the cruise port and was an excellent choice. Don't bother with their cruise package, just get a regular room and they'll keep your car for the duration if you wish. We ended up using the $8 parking at the port gates. It had been closed and previous owner has taken off for parts unknown but reopened before our cruise. Well worth trying. We were there around 10 a.m. and at 10:30 they had word from the ship that everyone was offboard and they could start bringing people in to embark. We were on one of the first shuttles in. We found embarkation to be very smooth and we were onboard and on the Lido deck before 11:30. By 12:30 we were in our cabin and our luggage all arrived by 2 p.m. Can't see why people would pay extra thinking they will get on any sooner. The VIPs were going on at the same time as us.
We noticed that there was a smell of cigarette smoke outside our cabin and my husband's pillows smelled of smoke. The pillows were promptly changed and the room steward gave us an explanation of the smoke smell in the hall. He said there is a vent which seems to bring the smoke in from an outside area the crew uses for smoking. So nothing can be done about it but I advise anyone with a smoke allergy not to book these forward porthole rooms.
Entertainment: We attended the Welcome party in the theatre. The theatre is small and it is difficult to get a seat when there is only one show for the whole ship. That happened several times. There are quite a few pillars obstructing views plus a waste of space because of the layout of seating into curved couches which force some people to sit on an angle and take up a lot of space as well. We did not attend any other shows in the theatre as it seemed to always be titled Divas so we thought it was just more of the same. We realize Carnival caters to a younger crowd so the music is not to the liking of us as seniors. They did make some comment about a person who is in charge of all the music on the ships and how they try to cover all the age groups but we didn't find it covered music we are familiar with. We did go the second night to the adult comedy. Again the room "Putting on the Ritz" I think had couches with curves, a very odd manner of seating and we ended up having to turn sideways on the couch to see the comedian. Uncomfortable. As well, although it was announced twice that it was an adult show and those under 18 had to leave, this was not enforced and I saw several young children there. No worries though because we didn't find the show to have much content of 'adult taste'. It was just plain not at all funny! There were a number of people there from Alabama and his jokes seemed to be for them because they were laughing but no one else was. Just all went right over our heads.
The food was okay. Same as our other Carnival cruises. We always found something we enjoyed and had most of our meals in the dining room. We were pleased that there were no Punchliner Brunches which we did not like when we were on the Miracle. There was so much agreement about disliking the brunches that they finally stopped them near the end of our 10 day cruise on Miracle. The boys switched back and forth between trying some of the kid's meals and having appetizers from the adult menu.
All in all we had a nice time doing our own thing. I always enjoy the casino and ended up getting the certificate to play in the slot tournament on the Dream in November so another Carnival cruise is coming up.
Disembarkation went very smoothly. A lot of people opted for self-assist but after that all zones were called right away and we were off the ship, back to our car and driving home by 10:15. Immigration for non-US citizens at 6:45 makes for a long day but it went smoothly too. Not many non-US citizens this cruise.
We went to Little Stirrup Cay (Cococay) and had rented a cabana. This was an excellent choice as it provided needed relief from the sun. The snacks and water provided were plentiful and excellent and the bottle of champagne was appreciated. Would rent a cabana again. Less

Cabin review: PTU18 Porthole
U 18: cabin has no mini fridge and no couch but has a wide window ledge where the portholes are and was very comfortable. Smell of smoke sometimes in the room but mostly in the hallway. If allegic to cigarette smoke, don't book these forward rooms. We were told there is a vent coming in from a public smoking area so nothing can be done about it.Read All Porthole (PT) Reviews >>

Playing a house show is a rare thing for me, but I'm excited to be invited to play a couple of acoustic sets at BobCat House Concerts here in Ottawa on Saturday May 13th.

Check the details below…I'll be playing numbers from Volume Vs. Voice, A Date With A Smoke Machine and will likely dig up some others from the old tune vault.
Spread the word, but space is limited.

Expanda Fuzz news
For those following along, my noise post-punk project Expanda Fuzz launched this year and we've had a pretty sweet 6 months! From releasing our first EP 'Bleuets' on limited vinyl to playing festivals such as Ottawa Explosion and Edmonton's Up+DT fest, it's been a whirlwind of fuzz to say the least.
Next up, we play Ottawa's Megaphono Festival in February and plan to release something special as part of that show.
If you want to stay in the loop with this project, sign up for our mailing list on our site here.
You can also follow Expanda Fuzz on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
Chris solo
My next show will be Saturday, January 14th at Irene's in Ottawa playing with my friend Susan O for her record release party. I'm looking forward to getting back to playing some solo material from Volume Vs. Voice and Smoke Machine, among others.
I'm currently working on new material, so be sure to sign up for my mailing list to hear about release dates first! You can sign up on the top right of this page.
Camp Radio too
With the demos for our new LP finished, it's time to get this record going in 2017! It's been 10 years since our first LP and 5 since Campista Socialista came out. I'd say it's time for a new one, you?
Finally, thank you!
As always, thank you for your continued support whether it's downloading, listening, buying or simply reaching out on one of my social media networks to say you enjoy my music. Your kind actions keep me going and make me think it may be worth sharing more music in 2017.

It's been awhile since I've played a solo set so I'm looking forwarding to revisiting some songs from Volume Vs. Voice and Smoke Machine!
Plus, it's also been awhile since I've spent a Saturday afternoon in a pub. Hello, Danger Bay.
