It's officially the dog days now that we're into August.
Of course there's the NHL-NHLPA saga, which is just beginning and with no end in sight.
Here's some video of the NHLPA's Mathieu Schneider (former Ranger) meeting the media after yesterday's session, courtesy of the players union (so take it with a grain of salt).

Junior High Girls Aspire Higher at SMWC Summer Camps
May 19th, 2014 | SMWC
As a women's college, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC) is an expert in providing a nurturing environment where young women can try new things, persevere through setbacks and see that strength of character comes when you give something another try. Summer camps at SMWC build a foundation for a successful life.
The summer camps at SMWC are designed to develop life skills, instill confidence and foster leadership skills. The week of June 23, SMWC is offering three summer camps designed specifically for junior high girls who want to aspire higher.
Summer camp is the perfect place for young girls to explore future careers and discover hidden talents under the guidance of faculty and professional businesswomen, who will have a lasting impact on their lives. Through one of these camps, girls can find a passion that they otherwise may never have explored.
Camp CEO
A four-day overnight camp (June 23-26), for girls entering grades 6-8, Camp CEO brings accomplished women executives to The Woods. This camp, in partnership with the Girls Scouts of Central Indiana, is designed to empower girls to become confident leaders who use their time and talents to benefit their community. The College is uniquely qualified to provide Camp CEO with its traditional focus on women and its highly successful Master of Leadership Development program.
"It's not often junior high girls have the opportunity to meet top women executives in a small setting and to learn from them. This will be a great opportunity for these young women to ask them questions about their journeys and life experiences," said Angie Hudgens, Camp CEO program director and assistant director of distance admission. "This will help them see more career options and to dream big. It will be a great opportunity for them to learn leadership skills."
Women executives from organizations including GE Aviation, Girls Scouts of Central Indiana, Simple to Elegant and Terre Haute Children's Museum, among others, will mentor participants during specific activities geared towards critical thinking and problem solving, leadership, entrepreneurship and networking. Other activities will include topics on career planning, goal setting, public relations, service learning, social media and marketing, team building, professional writing and more.
At Camp CEO, camp participants will be inspired by how real women started out just like them: a young girl with dreams, goals and challenges.
The Oakley Academy
A five-day overnight camp (June 23-27), for girls entering grades 6-9, the Oakley Academy is a camp centered around environmental science, a growing area of prominence in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education and professions. At this camp, girls will expand their knowledge of the environment, natural history and the connectedness among all things. Participants will use the natural environment of the rural campus and Lake Le Fer during hands-on activities including taking environment samples and interpreting the data.
"It is very important to get young women involved in Environmental Science because they are underrepresented in the STEM fields," said Robert Jean, Ph.D., the Oakley Academy program director and assistant professor of ecology at SMWC. "A woman's perspective on the environment is always a plus. In many cultures, women are considered to be the sex closest to nature, but men are often making the decisions about nature and often have more of a tendency to want to dominate nature. Environmental ethics would suggest we incorporate women into the decision making process about natural areas to encompass more of a nurturing or sense of caring into the decision. We need to tap into all of the pools of knowledge and experiences, and women offer a unique perspective for the environment."
Outdoor experiences will enrich camp participants' perception of the environment and the sustainability of it. They will learn to be good stewards of our planet within the natural beauty of SMWC's campus.
TWIST (Today's Women in STEM Tomorrow)
A five-day overnight camp (June 23-27), for girls entering grades 6-9, TWIST is an exciting, hands-on exploration of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, powered by Duke Energy Foundation. Through indoor and outdoor science adventures, participants will learn more about the possibilities of a career in STEM.
Activities include exploring the natural habitats of The Woods and the species that thrive there, uncovering the possibilities of the digital world, discovering the power of electricity and other sources of energy and learning about the tallest trees in The Woods. This summer camp is filled with activities, field trips and special guests who will share their knowledge and expertise of STEM careers.
With expert faculty in leadership, environment, STEM and educating women, the benefits of SMWC's camps are both immediate and slow to emerge. The Woods' philosophy is never to underestimate the simplest lesson. While these experiences are fleeting, the impact often lasts a lifetime.

Laura Geitz had a front-row seat the last time Australia missed out on Commonwealth Games gold.
On the bench for the entire game, she could only watch in despair as New Zealand clinched the final in double overtime in Delhi in 2010.
But now captain of Australia's 12-strong Games team announced on Wednesday, Geitz is determined history won't repeat in Glasgow.
"It was just so devastating," Geitz said.
"It's now been 12 years since the Australian netball team's won the Commonwealth Games gold medal.
"It's been a long time between drinks."
Geitz said the Diamonds' team she'll lead in Glasgow would rely on determination and speed to triumph over the Silver Ferns.
"I just think our relentless defence is a huge advantage for us and, in our attack, just the speed that our attackers move the ball with is extremely hard to defend," she said.
"I know because I have to defend them in training."
Uncapped Melbourne Vixen's star Tegan Caldwell claimed the hard-fought last attacking spot at the expense of seasoned NSW Swifts shooter Susan Pratley and Adelaide Thunderbirds potential debutant Erin Bell.
Caldwell will likely serve as a back-up behind shooters Natalie Medhurst and Caitlin Bassett in Glasgow, with Caitlin Thwaites the other option.
The Northern Mystics' Julie Corletto was recalled into the Diamonds' line-up after an absence to take out the last defensive spot ahead of the Thunderbirds' Rebecca Bulley.
Coach Lisa Alexander said it was tough to look past Bell and Bulley, but the 12-player team was versatile enough to take care of business before the anticipated trans-Tasman final.
"England have a different style to New Zealand and we have to be able to cope with that as well," she said.
"If we just focus on New Zealand, we will not look after our first goal, which is to beat the other teams to get to the final."
Australia open their 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games campaign against Wales on July 24, before the remaining pool matches against England (July 26), Barbados (July 27), Trinidad & Tobago (July 28) and South Africa (July 29).
Australian team: Laura Geitz (capt), Bianca Chatfield (vc), Caitlin Bassett, Tegan Caldwell, Julie Corletto, Kimberlee Green, Renae Hallinan, Sharni Layton, Natalie Medhurst, Kimberley Ravaillion, Madison Robinson, Caitlin Thwaites.

A new discussion board experience is coming this September!
After 10 years, we're upgrading our discussion board to a new modern system. The new forum will be easier to use, mobile-friendly and loaded with new features! We'll be taking all of the existing posts and users over to the new board, you won't have to do anything. If you have any questions, we've started a thread here to discuss.
Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation Discussion Board → Members' Cafe → Gavin...I have moved our conversation
Hi Marion,
Good to hear from you too. No worries at all for moving our conversation here. I guess that Rick is right in that we should be posting stuff in the right places, and I guess that this is what the cafe is for! And obviously in a cafe a cup of tea and a biscuit also go down well!
I also saw on the news last week that Germany has been hit pretty badly with all of this snow recently. And that is so true about the only good ice being that which is in the freezer! I also saw something else last week on the news here which was most bizzare but showed the reality of the ice here. A guy was outside his house on the road and skating around in the street wearing ice hockey skates!
Yes we are looking forward to the better weather and for mum being able to get out of her house. It has been quite some time since she has been able to get outside. I will be taking her to Arbroath at some point for a fish supper from the chippy in the harbour there as they are very good indeed! And there is nothing like sitting outside in a small fishing harbour eating a fish supper!
I hope you will have a good conference and I am looking forward to hearing your report. And I hope you will get some warm weather there as well!
Thanks as always to you for everything.
So you guys moved while I was in the middle of posting, so I will repost my comments here:
Hi Gavin,
I'm glad you are getting out from under the snow & ice over there and I hope your Mum gets a chance to get out soon. We have had a lot of freezing cold & two major snows, but today it is almost 30 degrees and tomorrow is looking even better. I am not fooling myself into thinking this is it tho' as I know we aren't out of the woods yet. Yes, it is even cold in Florida. They have had some freezing & snow. Not good for the prices of fruit. I don't think any of this has affected Marion either. The weather all over has been really strange this year and now that devastating earthquake in Haiti. How sad.
Everyone take care and my best wishes to all.
It does make sense to keep things in order and we do want to keep Rick happy!
I hope it warms up when you get to Florida Marion. Take some of the California sunshine with you! If they let you get it on the plane
Hi Darla,
Wisconsin in January sounds very cold indeed! Much Brrrrr! I remember watching some play off games in Green Bay at this time of the year and it looked very cold there indeed! I remember one game especially that I have seen from old films that stood out that looked very cold and I think it was called the Ice Bowl, which seemed very appropriate considering the temps! The coldest we have got down to in Scotland this winter so far was -22.3 in a small village up at the very north of the country. Where I live, the lowest we got to was about -15 which is cold enough for me!
Yes the footage I saw of ice and frost forming over the orange groves in Florida looked most strange indeed and this is as you say not good for the price of fresh fruit. I hope it doesn't push prices up too much for you all.
And yes, such sad news today of the earthquake in Haiti. And what I fear is that with this as seemed to happen with other such events around the world, is that the full extent of the impact may not be known for a few days or so.
I hope the improving weather continues for you Darla as you must be about as fed up as we are of all of this snow and stuff!
Best wishes to you and everyone.
Ha, ha, Darla. I am hoping to be let "on" the plane. I have not flown since the last threat on Christmas Day and am expecting to go through a lengthy security line. Oh, the joys of traveling!
Hugs to all,
Hi Lainy,
I thought I would reply to your post here, hope you don't mind. I didn't want to upset Rick by posting in the wrong place. Mum and I are okay, just trying to get on with stuff I guess which is what dad would have wanted us to do. I am glad that the snow has started to clear as now mum can at least get outside with me. The cold air hits her real bad and causes her great trouble with her breathing and she is not able to walk at all on the ice, even with me holding her. We are going to be making apps with the banks and solicitors for next week to sort out the rest of dads financial affairs etc. This is something that we have not been able to do due to the cold weather etc as mum has to be there in the banks and she cant get there, and it is really starting to get her down and she just wants it all done. The minister who conducted dad's funeral came to visit mum last week and that was nice and mum really enjoyed that. He is a real nice guy and said he will pop back in again soon to see mum.
Yes the events in Haiti are very tragic indeed, so very sad and the pictures we see on the news are so sad. Such devastation and loss for everyone there and I just hope now that the rest of the world can get on with providing some aid, relief and help for the people there. I have never been there or indeed even to that part of the world, but it does as you say look like a pretty country. A very old friend of mine who I recently caught up with after many years told me that he went to Cuba a few years ago, and he told me that the poverty he saw there was like nothing he had ever seen before.
Yes visiting you all on your side of the pond does indeed sound good. Who knows, one of these days I may just jump on a plane and head out your way! The last and only time I have ever been on a plane was in 1996 when I came back from Ibiza on holiday, and I imagine as Marion talks of, that the security checks have changed a lot since then!!
Best wishes
Anywhere you post me is fine with me and I probably should not have tagged in where I did. My bad!
You come over the pond anytime you want and you have a place to stay!
Good to hear your mom wants to attend to business, guess that's the way I am, I like things done yesterday.
Traveling is not not like it used to be...I have been in the business 30 years, only Heaven knows why!!! When I started we used ticket printers and in the morning when we arrived at work dozens of tickets lay on the floor spewed out from the night before. Then computers came in oh about 2 years later. Notice I am not mentioning dates!! We thought how in the heck will we ever learn these computers and now......my only thoughts on flying are they are charging for more and doing less. In fact some airlines just raised their baggage fees! Good to talk to you....Hugs Me & T.
Hi Lainy,
Nooo, you're never bad, always good!!
Thanks for your very kind offer of somewhere to stay should I ever come over the pond. I may just take you up on that offer one day. Having only been as far as the mediteranean before, coming over your way would be a big adventure for me. And meeting you and Teddy and maybe some of the rest of us from here would be a real joy.
Mum is just like you in that she wants things to be done yesterday so getting on with some stuff next week will I think be good for her. Goodbye snow hopefully for another year!
My best to you and Teddy.

Jason Prance is a proud geek dad, lucky husband, entrepreneur and the Internet's biggest fan since 1993.
During his first job at Media Play in 1996, he printed his own business cards and handed them out to shoppers in need of computer help. This ignited the beginning of his professional career in consulting and the pursuit of a major in Computer Information Systems at Georgia State University in 1997. Once attending college, he started his first company, Digital Threshold, at the age of 18.
Jason began working full-time for a startup company selling audio visual technology. Not long after, they were one of the first companies
to sell projectors online through ecommerce websites. They played a major role in putting Sanyo LCD into the US market resulting in a fabulous all expenses paid trip to Hawaii. Two years later they grew the company to 14 million in annual revenue and sold to a publicly-held company. Over ten years later, countless online businesses launched and over one-half billion dollars in revenue generated – Jason has developed a unique hands-on understanding of what makes a small business succeed and fail.
After many years of focusing on highly transactional, product-based businesses and manufacturing, Jason now works for an Atlanta-based marketing agency, Leader, and is working with exciting Fortune 100 clients on large-scale
digital strategies and activations connecting the brand, retailer and consumer.
Jason's goal in his professional career is like many others, to be a catalyst of change and make an impact on an industry. His passion is to evangelize and cultivate the advancement of technology and communication across all platforms we know today.
His personal goals, however, are the most important and straightforward. Be the best husband and father possible and keep finding ways to slow down time and enjoy that which matters most.

A killer who left a disabled woman without her husband and an autisic boy without a dad has been jailed for life.
"Cool, calm and collected" killer Shafique Ahmad Aarij has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 26 years for the murder of North Cheam man Andrew Iacovou at the Morden branch of Ladbrokes where he worked last May.
A blood-splattered Aarij was caught leaving the Aberconway Road betting shop on CCTV
But Mr Iacovou's disabled wife Anita said she has been left not knowing how her family will cope in future if her condition worsens.
Homeless gambling addict Aarij, 22, went to the Aberconway Road branch of Ladbrokes with the intention of robbing it just before 8.30am on May 25 last year. Once inside he used a technique he practised the previous evening to lure Mr Iacovou, 55, out from the secure area behind the counter.
Once Mr Iacovou, of Church Hill Road, opened the door to the staff area Aarij burst in and attacked him, demanding money. When Mr Iacovou refused to hand over the cash, Aarij repeatedly hit him over the head with a claw hammer. During the frenzied attack Aarij landed up to eight blows in just 12 seconds.
Despite pressing the panic alarm, Mr Iacovou was left to die behind the counter in the shop to be found by a customer almost two hours later.
During this time Aarij, who came to the UK from Pakistan in 2012, fled on public transport, first by getting a bus to Hackbridge and then to Tooting where he wired some of the £300 he stole to Pakistan before heading to Stratford in east London. He was arrested after boarding a bus heading towards Ilford on May 30.
He admitted going to the betting shop armed with a decorator's knife and a hammer and said he attacked Mr Iacovou but was "not in his senses" at the time. He denied murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility but a jury took just 45 minutes to find him guilty after a trial at Southwark Crown Court last year.
CCTV showing Aarij making his getaway on buses, transferring the money to Pakistan and then buying a phonecard in Startford
Aarij was sentenced at Southwark Crown Court this morning. During the hearing the court heard a statement from Mr Iacovou wife, Anita. She said: "In the last seven years I have been disabled by a crippling illness which took away my mobility so Andrew gradually became my carer.
"My children Aryan, 10, and Rhitik, 14, miss all the things that their daddy did, like being picked up by him from school or being taken to the café. For them too life has changed. Rhitik is autistic and his world is completely upside down. Since his dad died he questions why someone would do this. He has become frightened of going outside and he doesn't want to leave the flat and struggles to cross the road or even catch a bus. He thinks someone will hurt him if he goes outside.
"I've watched his world get smaller and smaller in the last few months, he feels so unsafe in the world now. Andrew hoped that Rhitik would go to university but at the moment he can't even cross the road. That goal now seems a very long way off.
"For me the greatest fear is what will happen to the children if something happens to me and I end up in hospital, there is no one left to look after them."
Sentencing, Judge Anthony Leonard described Aarij as "cool, calm and collected" and added: "Having run out of money, you went somewhere where you had lost money to take it back."
Flowers left outside the mshop where Mr Iacovou was killed, which remains closed to this day
The judge said he acknowledged Aarij had some sort of "mental disturbance" but because he refused to allow his own psychiatrists to talk to his family in Pakistan to find out about treatment he received in his home country, it was hard to take it into account.
Speaking after the sentencing, Detective Sergeant Eric Sword, of the homicide and major crime command, said: "This was an incredibly violent and unprovoked attack on a hard-working father-of-two - the level of violence was completely disproportionate to what the suspect sought to achieve which was robbing the shop.
"An initial hammer blow knocked the victim to the floor but Aarij continued to swing the weapon another eight times. He then calmly stepped over his victim in the hunt for cash.
"It is only right that Aarij will now serve many years behind bars."
Following Mr Iacovou's death, the Sutton Guardian set up the SafeBet campaign calling on the betting industry to improve conditions for its workers by ending the policy of single manning and making sure security measures like panic alarms and CCTV are monitored.

PHILLIPPA Collins never expected her grandmother to abseil down a church tower when she suggested she do something exciting for her 80th birthday.
But yesterday the 23-year-old from Cricklade joined her aunt, Christina Foote, and her grandmother, Helen Hopkins, as they scaled down from the ceiling of the 70ft tower at St Sampson's Church.
Phillippa told her grandmother, who has four daughters, six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, that she needed to do something exciting for her special birthday.
But after turning down suggestions to do a parachute jump and airwalking, Phillippa never thought Helen would actually take on an abseil.
Phillippa, 23, said: "I said she should so something exciting for her birthday and that I would support her, but I didn't think she would actully do it.
"But a couple of weeks later I went round to hers and she had filled in all the paperwork to take part."
Although Phillippa was glad to be back on firm ground, Helen, who runs the Upper Chelworth Farm B&B and has had both her knees replaced, enjoyed the experience.
She said: "I was a bit nervous about it but I enjoyed it. It was exhilarating and I would do it again. It was also good to raise a bit of money for a good cause."
Around 40 people abseiled, raising thousands of pounds to support projects around the world at the beginning of Christian Aid Week.
Among those also taking part was the Bishop of Swindon, Lee Rayfield, who wanted to raise awareness of the charity's work.
He said: "You have to use your upper body strength to lower yourself down until you feel the support catch you, and luckily I have that strength.
"If you didn't or you couldn't reach you would have to literally let yourself drop into space, and I have a lot of admiration for those who had to do that.
"I did it to raise awareness of Christian Aid, who work on helping those countries who have been destroyed and the communities that have been decimated through violence."
The event was part of Cricklade's Big Day Out, and as well as the abseil visitors could enjoy a barbecue, parachuting teddies, a chocolate fountain and plenty of table top sales with all proceeds going towards the charity.
Robin Passingham, who helped to organise the event, was delighted with the turnout.
She said: "I think it's been a brilliant day. I think there have been around 150 to 200 people come along ,as well as the jumpers.
"I've been a supporter of Christian Aid since it was set up in 1957. It's a way of making sure we are doing our Christian duty."

By clicking Submit, you accept the Adobe Terms of Use.
Prior experience working with Flash Professional CS5 is not required. This introductory article provides all the steps you need to get started. Although this sample project includes some ActionScript code, previous knowledge of programming is not necessary.
Note: If desired, you can download the sample files to review a working version of the completed project. Otherwise, just follow along with the instructions provided below to create the sample project from scratch.
Note: For information on how to create your first Flash Professional CS6 document, refer to this article.
Adobe Flash Professional CS5 is an authoring tool that you can use to create presentations, applications, and other content that responds to user interaction. Flash projects can include simple animations, video content, complex user interfaces, applications, and everything in between. In general, individual projects created with Flash Professional are called applications (or SWF applications), even though they might only contain basic animation. You can make media-rich applications by including pictures, sound, video, and special effects.
The SWF format is extremely well suited for delivery over the web because SWF files are very small and take little time to download. Flash projects often include extensive use of vector graphics. Vector graphics require significantly less memory and storage space than bitmap graphics because they are represented by mathematical formulas instead of large data sets. Using bitmap graphics in Flash projects results in larger file sizes because each individual pixel in the image requires a separate piece of data to represent it. Additionally, Flash allows you to select graphic elements and convert them to symbols—making them easier to reuse and further improving performance when SWF files are viewed online.
To build an application in Flash Professional CS5, you create vector graphics and design elements with the drawing tools and import additional media elements such as audio, video, and images into your document. Next, you use the Timeline and the Stage to position the elements and define how and when they appear. Using Adobe ActionScript (a scripting language) you create functions to specify how the objects in the application behave.
When you author content in Flash Professional (by choosing File > New), you work with the master document, which is called a FLA file. FLA files use the file extension .fla (FLA). While editing a FLA file in the Flash authoring environment, you'll notice that the user interface is divided into five main parts:
The five areas of the workspace are identified in Figure 1.
ActionScript code allows you to add interactivity to the elements in your document. For example, you can add code that causes a button to display a new image when it is clicked. You can also use ActionScript to add logic to your applications. Logic enables your application to behave in different ways depending on the user's actions or other conditions. There are different versions of ActionScript. Flash Professional uses ActionScript 3 when an ActionScript 3 or Adobe AIR file is created, or ActionScript 1 and 2 when an ActionScript 2 file is created in the New Document dialog box.
Flash includes many features that make it powerful but easy to use, such as prebuilt drag-and-drop user interface components, built-in motion effects that you can use to animate elements on the Timeline, pre-written code snippets, and special effects that you can add to media objects.
When you have finished authoring your FLA file, you publish it by selecting File > Publish (or pressing Shift+F12). The publish operation generates a compressed version of your file with the extension .swf (known as a SWF file). Adobe Flash Player is used to play the SWF file in a web browser or as a stand-alone application. Although you don't upload or distribute the FLA file itself, you'll always want to keep a copy of the master document. If you need to make any changes, you can open the FLA file in Flash, edit it, and then publish an updated SWF file.
This tutorial guides you through the process of creating a basic FLA document. You'll use this workflow when authoring projects in Flash Professional. The first step involves creating a new document:
Note: Later, you can create a preset of your own custom workspace by positioning the panels in any way that you prefer. Choose the New Workspace option and enter a name to save your personal configuration. Once it's saved, you can reset the workspace by choosing its name from the workspace menu.
Tip: You can set the background color of the Stage in the Flash movie by choosing Modify > Document or by selecting the Stage and then modifying the Stage color swatch in the Property inspector. There's no need to draw a rectangle to define the background color. When you publish your movie, Flash sets the background color of the published HTML page to the same color as the Stage background color (if you choose to generate an HTML file).
After you've created your Flash document, you are ready to add some artwork to the project. Drawing shapes is a common task in Flash. When you use the drawing tools in the Tools panel, the vector graphics you create can be edited at any time. The following steps describe how to create a circle; later, you'll use this circle to create some basic animation. Follow these steps:
To learn more about the two drawing mode options, see the Drawing modes section of the Flash Professional online documentation.
Note: The Shift key works similarly with other auto shapes; when you press and hold Shift while drawing a shape with the Rectangle tool, you'll create a perfect square.
Tip: If you're drawing your circle and you see only an outline of the shape instead of a fill color, first check to ensure that the stroke and fill options are set correctly in the Property inspector while the circle is selected. If the fill color swatch is set to a color and the stroke is set to No Color, the settings are correct. Next, make sure that the option to Show Outlines is not selected in the layers area of the Timeline. (There are three icons to the right of the layer names: eyeball icon, lock icon, and outlines icon. Double-check that the outlines icon displays a solid fill and not just a square outline. If you are not sure if the Show Outlines option is enabled, click the icon repeatedly to toggle the visual state between normal view and outline view.)
After drawing some artwork, you can turn it into a reusable asset by converting it to a symbol. A symbol is a media asset that can be reused anywhere in your document without the need to re-create it. Symbols can contain bitmap and vector images and animations, along with other types of content.
It is common to use symbols to create tweened animations. You can also use symbols to store graphic content (as described in the next set of steps). As you become more familiar with Flash Professional, you'll use symbols to structure applications and interactivity using multiple timelines. Symbols are useful for compartmentalizing parts of a project to make it easier for you to edit specific sections later. Follow these steps to create a symbol:
Tip: You can also convert a graphic into a symbol by selecting it and dragging it into the Library panel.
If the Library panel is not open, choose Window > Library to access it. The new symbol is now listed in the Library panel. (When you drag a copy of the symbol from the Library panel to the Stage, the copy on the Stage is called an instance of the symbol.)
In this section, you'll use the symbol in your document to create a basic animation that moves across the Stage:
When you tested the movie, the animation loops by default as the movie plays in Flash Player. This occurs automatically because in Flash Professional, the Timeline is set up to loop back to Frame 1 after exiting the last frame—unless you instruct the movie to do otherwise. When you want to add a command that controls the Timeline, you'll add ActionScript code to a keyframe (indicated by a dot symbol) on the Timeline. This is known as adding a frame script.
Tip: Keyframes are used to place ActionScript and assets on specific frames in the Timeline. When you review the Timeline of a FLA file, you can locate scripts and content by looking for the keyframe dots. Keyframes that have frame scripts display a lower case "a" symbol.
Follow the steps below to add ActionScript code to your FLA file. You'll add one of the most common Timeline commands, which is called the stop action:
Note: This step assumes that you're using the default mode of the Actions panel. If the Actions panel is in Script Assist mode, it won't allow you to type directly into to the text area. To return to the default mode, uncheck the magic wand icon in the upper right corner of the Actions panel.
When you are finished creating your FLA file, and you've tested it repeatedly, you are ready to publish it. The files that you output when publishing can be uploaded to a host server so that the project can be viewed in a browser. When you publish the file, Flash Professional compresses the data in the FLA file and generates a much smaller, more compact (and non-editable) SWF file. It's important to note that the FLA is your master, authoring file. Always keep the FLA file handy in case you need to make changes to the project. The SWF file that is generated by Flash when you publish a project is the file that you'll embed in a web page. If you are familiar with Adobe Photoshop, you can think of the FLA file as the equivalent of a master PSD file, and the SWF file as the equivalent of the exported JPEG file that will be inserted on a web page.
While you can choose to edit the publish settings and only publish the SWF file (and then use Adobe Dreamweaver or another HTML editor to insert the SWF file in a page) the Publish command makes things even easier. You can set the publish settings to automatically generate an HTML file that contains the code to embed the SWF file for you.
Follow these steps to publish the FLA file and output the SWF file with the HTML file, so that you can view the published project in a browser:
You've successfully completed your first FLA file. To learn more about publishing your document, read the Publishing and Exporting section in the Flash Professional online documentation.
In an earlier section, you stopped the animation from looping by adding a
stop() action to the last frame of the Timeline. When the playhead reaches the last frame, it is instructed to stop, which prevents it from looping back to Frame 1.
In this set of instructions, you'll learn how to add a Replay button. When a user clicks the button, it causes the playhead to begin playing from Frame 1 again. This is the behavior of the example shown in Figure 19.
Flash is extremely flexible. There are many strategies that you could use to create a Replay button, including restarting the playhead when a user presses a key on their keyboard, or when they click on the Stage, or when they click a button. To achieve any of these options, you'll add some ActionScript code that responds to the user interactivity at runtime (while the SWF file is playing). This section is a little more advanced than the previous sections—it covers some new concepts that you'll use to control the behavior of your Flash movies with programming.
Follow these steps to add a Replay button and the corresponding ActionScript to your file:
Note: One of the most common mistakes is to enter the name of a frame label, rather than entering the instance name of an object on the Stage. Be very careful to always select the object on the Stage first. Then you can access the Property inspector to check that the panel refers to the selected symbol and indicates that an instance is selected. Verify that the field says "<Instance Name>" before you type the name of the instance. If the Property inspector refers to a frame, it means you've accidentally clicked the Timeline. Naming instances can be confusing until you are familiar with the options presented for selected symbol instances and selected keyframes. One thing to check: If you accidentally enter a name in the Property inspector while a keyframe is selected (instead of an object on the Stage), you'll see a red flag icon appear in the Timeline on the keyframe. Frame labels can be very helpful when creating navigation that jumps to different frames in the Timeline; for this example, however, it is critical that you select the button on the Stage and enter the instance name of the button in the button layer as replay_btn. Also make sure there are no typos; otherwise the script will not work.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void
replay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
onClick. The last line of code uses the
addEventListener method, which registers the function as an "event listener" for the button's "click" event. The translation of this code essentially says: "When a user clicks the button named replay_btn, run the function named
onClick. When the
onClick function runs, it instructs the playhead to jump to Frame 1 of the Timeline and begin playing the frames."
This is the standard format used when writing ActionScript 3; one section checks for user interactivity (such as a mouse click) and that triggers another function to respond to timing cues from objects in Flash Player. In this case, the event handler function instructs Flash Player to return to Frame 1 and start playing the Timeline again. (You'll use a similar syntax of creating an event handler function and assigning it to a button instance any time you create an interactive button in Flash.)
Tip: You can use the Code Snippets panel as a shortcut when adding events to buttons.
There are many online resources you can use to learn more about working with Flash Professional:

How Do You Pronounce GIF? The Creator Says We're All Wrong Because It's Pronounced 'JIF'
There are hundreds and thousands of formats in today's computer world, but the GIF format stands alone and was even named the "word of the year" in 2012. GIF stands for 'Graphic Interchange Format'...whatever the heck that means, but it has changed computer animation as we know it. It has always been pronounced with a hard "g", like gift and apparently, that is absolutely WRONG...who knew?

I have tried to leave a few of these on various places on the HPW site for some help, but an getting no where. I can't seem to figure out how to add pictures to pages. I have for example, a great pic of Fang for his page, but can't seem to get it where it needs to be. I would really like someone to take the time to walk me through the steps (so that a 2yr old could understand step by step) so that I can do this very simple task. I come on this site with my newphews. We are making a Harry Potter game for our family game night, and we LOVE THIS SITE.........it's awesome. Oh, and I don't know what you mean by "Be sure to sign your edits with four tildes Savail Mailleny 19:44, 15 March 2008 (UTC) -->"
- Okay - image editing -
- Upload the image using the Upload image/file tab in the sidebar. Please remember to add a brief description of the image uploaded, and the source of the picture if possible.
- To include the image in an article, click the "Edit" tab at the top of the relevant article.
- Find the appropriate place to put the image in the article. Where you place the image in the text is where the image will appear in the article.
- Type [[File:FILENAME.FILEFORMAT]] to produce the image. FILENAME = the name of the image you uploaded, e.g. Fang, or Potterpic. FILEFORMAT = the type of file, e.g. jpg, gif, png, etc. So, if you uploaded the image Fang.jpg, then you would type [[File:Fang.jpg]].
- Extra effects can be added to the image by adding extra tags. [[File:Fang.jpg|250px]] will increase the size of the image. The number before the px can be adjusted to increase or decrease the size of the image.
- Typing [[File:Fang.jpg|thumb]] produces a thumbnail of the image.
- Typing [[File:Fang.jpg|thumb|Write a relevant captain here]] produces a thumbnail with a piece of text underneath.
- Typing [[File:Fang.jpg|right]] moves the image to the right of the article.
- Typing [[File:Fang.jpg|left]] moves the image to the left of the article.
- The effects can be combined - [[File:Fang.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Fang, Hagrid's pet]] will produce this ->
This Wikipedia page (click the link) covers it as well, along with some nifty visual guides.
As for using the four tildes ... typing ~~~~ will produce an automatic signature that contains your user name, and the time and date of your edit. Signatures are generally required for all edits on forum and talk pages. - Cavalier One(Wizarding Wireless Network) 20:50, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

HOUSTON - Have you decided what you're doing for dinner tonight? You may want to hold off on your plans just long enough to see this week's good, bad and just plain gross report from the Houston Health Department.
We're starting this week at Tokyo One on Greens Road at Highway 249, but managers here probably wish we wouldn't. Health inspectors said they found a live roach in the restaurant's bulk container of rice and a dead roach in a container of raw chicken.
"We ... they ... we threw it out immediately ... both of them," said restaurant manager Henry Chang.
That is true, but inspectors said a cook used his bare hands to remove the insects.
"What if the health inspector hadn't been here that day?" Davis asked Chang. "Would you have served it?"
"No, no," replied Chang. "We find anything in the food, we throw it away, automatically."
There were dead roaches on the bathroom floor at the Popeye's at 5817 Lockwood.
At the Daddy n Daughter restaurant inside the Super H Mart on Blalock, inspectors found a live roach near the food prep table. They said that's also where employees were storing cutting boards on the floor. Owner Martin Kim told Davis that was a misunderstanding.
"We don't use that cutting board anymore," Kim explained. "It was stored away, but he didn't want to see that ... and we weren't using that cutting board."
It was dried rodent droppings that concerned inspectors at the Cajun Corner at 11526 Bellaire Blvd.
At the Oriental Village at 13159 Northwest Freeway, inspectors said they found pink and tan slime in the ice machine.
The slime was black at the Denny's at 12862 Northwest Freeway.
Enough with the gross findings -- onto the good reports.
Taco Don Juan is a restaurant on wheels that rolled through the inspection with no violations.
Panera Bread at 13704 Northwest Freeway came out squeaky clean.
The Chelsea Deli & Cafe at 1538 Kingwood Drive got clean bill.
A lot of you sent us restaurants to check out last week, but we need you to send your complaints to the health department. They'll send an inspector out within 24 hours. Then come back to Local 2 every week to see what inspectors discovered.
If you have a news tip or question for KPRC Local 2 Investigates, drop them an e-mail or call their tipline at (713) 223-TIPS (8477). Copyright 2011 by Click2Houston.com. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

The dictionary tells us that retire means to withdraw.
Well, some folks may have retired from their careers or from being stay-at-home moms, but they certainly aren't withdrawing from life and sitting in their rocking chairs feeling bored and depressed as they realize they are no longer spring chickens.
Instead, they are out there enjoying those mature years.
Yes, these older, vital, active, interesting and interested retirees are making good use of their time and enjoying another chapter in their lives.
They are setting new goals. They are traveling more. They are taking classes and teaching themselves how to get connected to computers. And, they are golfing, dancing, training for marathons, and sharing their knowledge and interests with others.
In Carlsbad, there are hundreds, perhaps thousands, who are making the most of retirement life. Even those in their 80s and 90s. See for yourself.
- Rev. Gordon Baker, 87, who was the pastor at Pilgrim United Church before he retired in 1981, still does baptisms, weddings, funerals and occasionally preaches. For the last nine years, he has been the director of the Carlsbad Literacy Center, which his wife, Betty, started in 1971. He is an active member of the Rotary Club of Carlsbad, he swims half a mile every day, and he participates in the annual 5K CROP (Christian Rural Overseas Program) that raises money for world hunger.
- Inez Diedrich, 80, received her training to teach English as a Second Language 40 years ago, and since moving to Carlsbad 10 years ago, she has been teaching at the Carlsbad Literacy Center. She is also on the board of the Women's Association at First Presbyterian Church.
- Betty Groves, 89, loves to garden, read and knit. She volunteers at the Carlsbad City Library's Adult Learning Center, where she often works with Carlsbad High School students. Admitting that she is not one to sit still, Betty also makes and serves breakfast at St. Michael's Church and volunteers at Brother Benno's and with the Friends of the Oceanside Library.
- Herb Kratze, 94, keeps alive his lifelong love of jazz by organizing a jazz festival every year. His latest, with two bands, two dance floors, and 250 attendees, was held in La Jolla on New Year's Eve. Herb also continues to handle the finances of his family's popcorn business in San Diego, he still reads two newspapers daily and he loves to go out dancing and attend symphony concerts.
- Betty Maerkle, 85, went on the city payroll in 1962, and up until a month ago when she had a minor heart attack, was still working part time at the Carlsbad City Library. She hopes to be back, since she admits that housework is no fun and the place to be is out of the house.
- Dorothy Dudley Muth, 87, was honored recently when she was listed in the Marquis 2004 edition of "Who's Who in America." Schooled in Shanghai and Paris, Dorothy has lived and traveled around the world. She was the first woman appointed to the planning commission in Inglewood, and she spent many years as an active member of the Carlsbad Woman's Club and with several San Diego organizations. Today Dorothy, who doesn't wear glasses or use a hearing aid, writes and sells nonfiction articles to newspapers and magazines, and since 1996, she has been serving on Carlsbad's Historical Preservation Commission.
- Char Snow, 83, a singer who entertained for two years overseas during World War II, sang with the St. Michael's Episcopal Choir at Carnegie Hall in 1998. For the last several years, she has been leading a pool exercise class three times a week at the Boys & Girls Club of Carlsbad. When she is not walking the beach, reading, or searching for old books at book fairs, she can be found doing volunteer work at the Buena Vista Audubon Society or at St. Michael's.
- Isabelle Walker, 92, has been serving meals at the Carlsbad Senior Center for more than 10 years. Retired from the Army Nurse Corps as a lieutenant colonel in 1964, Isabelle, who was named Woman of the Year in 1988 by the Woman's Club of Carlsbad, still belongs to its reading club. She also continues to knit afghans for the Marine/Navy Relief Society at Camp Pendleton.
- George Weber, 80, said he is having the time of his life. Three days a week, he delivers meals to shut-ins for the Carlsbad Senior Center, and for the last 10 years has been planning the delivery routes. He is also the prayer leader at his church in Encinitas, plays accordion at Alzheimer's centers, works out at the YMCA, and attends weekly church fellowship meetings and breakfasts.

What can you do? The Rangers sure have gotten their share of last-minute wins this year, and a few bounces along the way.
This one was one horrible bounce, then a puck sliding across the goal line, then one of those unfortunate breakaway contests they sometimes hold after the hockey game is over and done.
1) I expected some sloppiness after the All-star break — which, by the way, is now one day longer than it needs to be because of that silly TV-themed choose-up they do on Thursday. And there was some sloppiness. Or lack of sharpness. Or whatever you want to call it. The Devils' Ilya Kovalchuk and Martin Brodeur both made horrendous giveaways in front of their own net in the first eight minutes — in the Devils heyday you wouldn't see two plays like that for months.
2) … and the Rangers weren't without their own gaffes, the biggest perpetrated by guys with letters on their sweaters. Their captain (Ryan Callahan) and alternate captain (Marc Staal) each coughed up a hairball that ended up in the back of the Rangers net.
3) The Rangers should be better when the other alternate captain gets back. What's that? He is playing. I know, that's a cheapshot. But what is wrong with Brad Richards? Is he hurt? He's not only not producing, but he's been brutal on faceoffs, has done diddly to help the PP, and looks soft. Maybe he is hurt.
4) When you see a couple of goalies like the two Martins and the way they handle the puck, or at least when I do, I wonder why more goalies aren't good at it? I mean, how much practice would it take to become adept at shooting the puck with a goalie stick? I did it.
5) Ah, the breakaway contest after the hockey game ends. It's keeping the Devils (9-2 in BCATHGEs) in the playoff race. Tell me you wouldn't rather have had the one point for a tie, and just one point for the Devils, than a win and two points for them, and what feels like a loss to you.
6) I'm not going to say what I really think here — I usually don't pull punches — but what could the Devils organization possibly be thinking with those dancers?
7) The game was announced as a sellout, despite a lot of empty seats (it filled up a bit, but at the start of the game there were seas of empties) and although a ton of the fans in the house wore blue. I thought it was a bad idea moving to a new arena and thinking that was going to fix the attendance, and thus the financial problems, etc. I don't pretend to have any clue about how things work in the accounting department. But I saw a team that couldn't draw when it was winning Stanley Cups and sharing a perfectly good arena with an NBA team. And now it was going to move into a new arena, as the only tenant, in the same general area of New Jersey and all of a sudden draw and survive?
8) What was Brodeur doing on Brian Boyle's goal? Snow angel? Break dance?
9) The power play. Oy. Now they're using Artem Anisimov, and then John Mitchell on the PP? How bad does it have to get? Why not Stu Bickel? Seriously, I thought the best of a bad lot was the PP with Ryan McDonagh on the point. But it's not going to matter what personnel they use if the forwards don't move, and if they don't try to get pucks to the net and create. I know, that's all cliche, but they sure aren't doing any of it.
10) You have to admit, Kovalchuk can sure play when he wants to.
11) How about that near tuck by Derek Stepan in OT? Kid's got some mitts. Great pay by Andy Greene — he of the dump-in off the stantion — in OT, because as he swept Stepan-wolf's stuff try off the goalline, Marian Gaborik was crashing. And I thought Gaborik and Carl Hagelin were really strong in this game.
My Three Rangers Stars:
1) Michael Del Zotto.
2) Marian Gaborik.
3) Brian Boyle.

Jarecki's film puts faces and stories to a drug war that has affected all corners of the criminal justice system and has disproportionately hurt poor black communities.


text: This news item expired on 10/9/2012, so the information below could be outdated or incorrect. The Devil Touched My Tongue: The World & Wit of Dorothy Parker Actress-playwright RoseLynn Katz will perform her original one-woman show about Dorothy Parker at the Enka-Candler Library. Dorothy Parker (1893 –1967) was an American poet, short story writer, critic and satirist best known for her wit, wisecracks, and eye for urban foibles during the Roaring Twenties. From a conflicted and unhappy childhood, Parker rose to acclaim for her literary output in Vanity Fair, Vogue and The New Yorker and as a founding member of the Algonquin Round Table. Later, she pursued screenwriting in Hollywood which resulted in two Academy Award nominations; but, these efforts were curtailed as her involvement in left-wing politics led to her being blacklisted. The Devil Touched My Tongue spans Dorothy Parker's bittersweet life through two world wars, prohibition, and the civil rights movement by revealing friendships with such luminaries as Lillian Hellman and F. Scott Fitzgerald plus problems with alcohol, celebrity, a tumultuous love life and several suicide attempts. Famed as one of the most sparkling, incisive, and darkly humorous American wits of the 20th century, Parker authored 33 books of fiction, poetry, and criticism. The Portable Dorothy Parker has never gone out of print, a distinction shared only with The Portable Bible and The Portable William Shakespeare. This free program will be Tuesday, October 9 at 7 p.m. at the Fairview Library. For more information, contact the library at 250-6484 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

"Come sit with me Mommy," he said. I didn't want to; I wanted to read on the couch. But I felt guilty, as usual, so I sat down at the kitchen table to color with my son.
"Pick a color," he told me. I chose a deep fading blue.
"Dark Blue!" he exclaimed; blue is his favorite color. I sat next to him; my arm jostled his; I'm a lefty, he a righty.
"Mommy!" he giggled. "Look what you did!" and showed me the errant mark on his paper. We sat side by side, elbow to elbow, he coloring, me writing with a deep fading blue and Benny Friedman playing in the not so distant background.
"The Mommy and Totty are going round the block," he said as he drew wide circles and winding lines. He proffered his hands in my direction,
"Oiy, Mommy, look, look," there were blue streaks on his palm and wrist. "Want my blue? He perked up suddenly. I declined and he frowned a moment.
"I'm gonna write on you paper," he informed me. I raised my hand to block his marker descending dead-center on my page. He only nicked it.
"Ma! He exclaimed. "Ma!" I blocked him again. He retreated.
"Ma, Ma, look at my picture." He pushed it towards me, covering my paper.
"Beautiful," I said with dutiful enthusiasm, but there was no light behind my eyes.
Terrible, I know. But I was coloring side by side with him. Better than reading on the couch I told myself, better than reading on the couch.

Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation Discussion Board → Chemotherapy → Low Dose Maintenance Chemotherapy With Capecitabine( Xeloda)
Hi, everyone,
God bless.
Percy, thank you for posting this. Very interesting.
Thank you
Just let all of you know I am on this Xeloda maintenance for the past 10 months(dosing and frequency of administration is not the same as the article); and will continue for at least 2 years totally if by God's grace I am still around. I have a PET done recently and everything is clean.
For those who are more or less in the same situation as mine (ie: had surgery ,done with adjuvant chemotherapy and currently on only follow up every 3 or 6 month,you all know that the chance for the CCA to come back is high.and I believe proactive action is needed in addition to just follow up by the physician.
More exercise, eating well, seek complimentary help are a few suggestions .
If you consider the above low dose maintenance chemotherapy, obviously you need to discus it with your oncology. I did consult for a 2nd opinion on this, but like many other situations,it did not come to the same agreement His reasoning--most likely the CCA will be back ,so he did not see the point of using the low dose maintenance therapy to delay the outcome in case it does not work.He prefered to treat the CCA when it comes back.He worried about the long term toxicity vs the possible benefits;and he is rightfully to provide his opinion as such. He was from a famous Midwest hospital specialized to treat the bile duct cancer.I guessed that is the difference between a doctor's objective opinion and a patient's subjective desire for a longer disease free period of survival.
God bless.
Percy, excellent post and I am elated that you had a clean PET! I smiled at the 2nd ONCs opinion as he doesn't know our Percy! You are such a good example for our members. We all love you!
Hi Percy,

Chatwood shines in another win over Giants
Cuddyer drives in three runs in return from DL; CarGo belts homer
SAN FRANCISCO -- The Rockies' newfound ability to challenge the Giants is a trait right-handed pitcher Tyler Chatwood has had all along.
Chatwood held the Giants scoreless for six innings on four hits, Michael Cuddyer homered and drove in three runs in his return from the disabled list and Nolan Arenado sparkled defensively as the Rockies won, 5-0, Friday night at AT&T Park to open a three-game series and five-game road trip.
The Rockies had lost 10 straight matchups with the Giants before winning three straight against them in a series at Coors Field a few days back. That series was part of a six-of-seven surge that has the Rockies and D-backs tied for first in the National League West, a game ahead of the Giants. Friday's win ended the Rockies' losing streak at AT&T Park at nine games.
Chatwood (3-0) has mostly good memories against the Giants. The last time the Giants were shut out at home was last Aug. 10. It was against the Rockies and Chatwood was the starter. Chatwood is 3-2 with a 2.00 ERA in seven appearances, including six starts, against the Giants.
"I think it's just worked out that way," Chatwood said. "It's obviously a great-hitting team over there. Anytime you can have success against a lineup like that, it's big."
Chatwood's work Friday included four strikeouts, no extra-base hits and 59 strikes on 88 pitches. In four starts over two promotions from Triple-A Colorado Springs, Chatwood has a 1.90 ERA and hasn't given up a run on the road.
"He was very impressive, pounded the bottom of the zone, had a great fastball, good breaking ball, threw strikes," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "When he does that, he's real good."
Relievers Josh Outman, Matt Belisle and Wilton Lopez completed the Rockies' third shutout of the season and second over the Giants.
Also helping Chatwood was Arenado, a rookie who has sparkled defensively in 24 games since being called up from Colorado Springs. Arenado made two difficult throws, one on a bunt, to retire Marco Scutaro in the third and fifth innings, and ranged to his right to make a jump throw to beat Gregor Blanco in the seventh. Arenado was the key reason Scutaro's hit streak against the Rockies ended at 15 games.
Cuddyer, in his return from a bulging disk in his neck, doubled in two runs against Tim Lincecum (3-4) in the first inning, reached on a wild pitch after a strikeout and scored on DJ LeMahieu's single in the fourth, and parked his eighth homer of the season in the sixth.
"Cuddy picked up where he left off, especially in two-strike situations, RBI situations," Weiss said. "He's in the big part of the field and he's a tough out."
Cuddyer said, "To to be able to get the win, that's what felt best."
Lincecum struck out eight and gave up seven hits in seven innings. Still, his last two starts have resulted in losses to Chatwood and the Rockies.
"He's very aggressive," Lincecum said. "He changes eye levels with his fastball and changes speeds with it. It's hard to sit on one pitch, because he has a really good curveball."
Carlos Gonzalez hit his team-leading 12th homer, off Sandy Rosario to open the eighth. He came about an inch from not being around for it.
A fan who wanted him to autograph a baseball before the game threw him a pen. Problem was Gonzalez already had a pen and wasn't expecting the toss. The pen hit him about an inch below his left eye and left a red mark. Gonzalez signed with the bloody pen, then bludgeoned the Giants to the tune of two hits.
"I thought it wasn't going to be my night," Gonzalez said.
Until recently, just about any time that the Giants were the opponent wasn't the Rockies' night.
"It's obviously comfortable when you start your road trip winning, especially against these guys," Gonzalez said. "They've dominated us every time we played here. Last time we faced them at home, we played really well. We should have won four games at home, but they got away with the first one.
"That creates a lot of confidence when we win a series against a team that's really good, has won two championships in the past three years."

Northern Lights Moving Color Tile - bLavish
Inspired by the Northern Lights, Moving Color Tiles has come up with 4 x 4 glass tiles that appear black at room temperature, but move through the color spectrum when the temperature changes. The Northern Lights Tile line relies on temperature to create the sensation that the colors are moving. When warm water or radiant heat is applied to the neat-o tiles, you see quite a range of color. It's actually quite fascinating, although it reminds me of those iridescent cars that were popular for a while. I like it, Moving Color tiles gets our stamp of approval.

WOW Awards Recognize Clinical Staff Excellence
About a year ago, several managers at the UCSF Dental Center's Predoctoral Student Dental Clinic decided that more could be done to recognize the great work of the clinic's extraordinary and indispensable staff, whose experience, expertise and calm professionalism provide essential support to faculty, students, patients, and to the UCSF School of Dentistry as a whole, directly and indirectly.
The WOW Award is an initiative of the Predoctoral Clinic managers, including Ruth Saldana, Janis Williams, Isidro Najar, Mayra Campos, and Frank Vinculado, and is meant to "recognize and demonstrate consistent performance of our Predoctoral Team", according to a poster explaining the award.
The award highlights team members who provide solutions, instead of presenting problems, provide excellent service, and are good peers to co-workers.
This week, longtime clinical staff members Rosa Kreitz and Beverly Wong were celebrated with certificates and balloons.
Echoing the sentiments of the Predoctoral Clinic managers, UCSF Dentistry Dean John D.B. Featherstone tells staff members at every opportunity that "we can't do it without you", and that everyone at the UCSF School of Dentistry is "very grateful for everything you do."

The nationally renowned charter school BASIS has selected Eastmark for its next East Valley campus. Construction on BASIS Mesa at Eastmark commences in March 2013. The new school is set to open fall 2013.
"BASIS is our first 5-12 educational partner and a perfect fit for this community. Eastmark's central location in the East Valley will give hundreds of children more opportunities to earn a world-class education, which is a tremendous value for kids, their families and our region's future workforce," said Dea McDonald, Senior Vice President of DMB Associates and General Manager of Eastmark.
"Every DMB community features education and lifelong learning among its Community Life pillars, which are empowered by partnerships that extend far beyond the classroom. We're delighted to bring to future residents and neighbors this charter school option in the early phase of Eastmark," added McDonald.
The new BASIS Mesa at Eastmark will complement the East Valley BASIS programs. Because of the strong interest by parents and students, the BASIS Board of Directors agreed there was enough demand to develop another school in the East Valley, explained Craig Barrett, retired Chairman/CEO of Intel Corporation and Chairman of the Board for BASIS Schools Inc.
"Our BASIS Chandler School has had a waiting list since we opened. DMB brought us the opportunity to develop in their new community, in an early phase of the development, where we could be a true partner. Its location, easy access to transportation and vision for the future made Eastmark the right choice for us. We're eager to grow another top performing school for the region," Barrett said.
The BASIS Mesa at Eastmark will open with grades 5-10, adding grade 11 by 2014 and grade 12 by 2015. BASIS Mesa may also add K through 4thgrades in ensuing years. The design and size of the new school will be similar to its Chandler and Phoenix campuses. The campus will be located adjacent to the Eastmark Great Park situated on approximately 4.5 acres. DMB is advancing the development and construction of Eastmark Parkway to meet the timelines of the opening of the charter school.
Families can sign up for the BASIS Mesa at Eastmark interest list at www.basislink.org.
The first phase of Eastmark's residential development is in the Queen Creek School District. The district does not have plans to build another campus in Eastmark in the immediate future.
Eastmark will host its grand opening on June 1, 2013 with seven builders offering homes in the first phase of residential development.
BASIS is the top performing school in Arizona with BASIS students ranked highest in Stanford 10 national test scores in both math and reading in 2012.
All BASIS schools are "A" rated by the Arizona Department of Education ("AZEd").
Approximately 5,000 students attend BASIS schools with campuses in Tucson, Oro Valley, Scottsdale, Chandler, Flagstaff, Peoria and Washington, D.C. BASIS is also opening new schools in Ahwatukee, San Antonio, and a new K-4 program in Tucson.

At the end of last week, we watched the snow melt away and give way to sunshine and temperatures in the 50's. Many people shed their burly winter coats and embraced this balmy break. These were short-lived moments, because lurking just around the corner was our next wave of winter weather. Bam! 6-10 more inches of snow!!!
If you live here in Michigan, you know the joys and pains of our weather. We have the pleasure of 4 seasons with distinctly different sets of weather patterns. One of those seasons seems to last longer than we would like. It's an old, beaten-up subject, but it's got staying power. It's a comfortable, default, ice-breaking topic when you're faced with that awkward silence waiting on line around town. You are sure to relax the tension when you hurl a complaint about our winter's cold temperatures or the snow. Even the most focused or grumpy people will eek out a concurring groan or nod, that they too need a break!
Alas, we fight on. We are weather warriors!!!!
I am a native Detroiter, and have spent my fair share of days layered up, bundled up and huddled up, in an effort to live through our harsher winter days. As a child, I rode the city bus to school and I dreaded standing on the cold pavement at the bus stop. Maybe I didn't have on the best boots and so my feet would become numb from the cold. I would stand on one foot to give the other foot a break, and that dance would go on and on until thank goodness, I could see the bus in the distance. If the cold doesn't drive you to hibernate, the seemingly never-ending number of cloudy, gray days will exact a toll. Can you say "Seasonal Affective Disorder" or the winter blues?
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reduces to paper what most of us, on any given day, can speak to with personal and expert knowledge: cloudy days prevail in metro Detroit and gray.... is the new black. NOAA finds that more than half of our days are spent under the gray, gloomy umbrella of a thick cloud cover. The hard facts: we average 185-191 cloudy days per year. That's a lot of clouds. Alright though, who's complaining? We, weather warriors, have to get out and deal with it. I simply say, that all of our extra effort, including loss of sleep due to waking early to commute safely, extra commute time, extra money spent on weatherization and extra repairs of our homes, ourselves and our cars should be taken into account. Yes we need a break, a tax break!!!
It might sound like a stretch to some, but our tax system should be nimble enough to account for what it really takes to "keep up" if you live in the northeastern states. A metro Detroiter's budgetary pie is eaten up by a hefty chunk of costs due to the cold. We spend on:
- Snow blowers
- Shovels
- Salt
- Boots
- Gloves
- Hats
- Scarves
- Coats
- Socks
- Heat
- Warm pajamas
- Tire chains
- Sun lamps
- B12 vitamins
- Lawn sprinkler maintenance
- More gas for idling, (who wants to get out when you wait?)
- Indoor sports and entertainment
- And hot chocolate!!
We all know the list of associated costs could go on and on. Then there are the unquantifiable costs. Consider the following inequities that should be taken into account; while a newly employed 20 something executive wakes up in January in Michigan, she rises baggy-eyed with at least an hour less sleep, in order that she have ample time to shovel out and clean off her car before hitting the slow-moving, icy roadways to work. Sporting her winter boots, while schlepping her office heels and papers in a bag, she makes her way in her tight fitting coat over her suit jacket and quickly tosses off her hairstyle-ruining hat, hoping those few minutes with her hat on from house to car have left her with some semblance of a style. Whew! She's made it. The car is slow to start, but does. Unbeknownst to her, snowflakes that grabbed onto her and her 10 pounds of gear, on the way to the car, are now melting around the edges of her bag, soaking both her report papers and her shoes inside. She jumps in her car, blasts the skin drying heat, bound for the office already feeling a sense of accomplishment about her day.
Over on the West Coast, her 20-something counterpart wakes well rested to sunshine and dry roads. She slips into her flip flops, moving fluidly and unfettered in her blouse and skirt as she heads to her car, briefcase in hand, iPod set to her energizing tunes. She drops the top and lets the breeze dry her hair on her inbound, smoothing sailing commute.
How can that be right!!!??
I have to admit, I have said on occasion, under my breath, alone in a dark room, far away from witnesses, "Why?! Why do we live here!!!?" And then, I get a hold of myself. I cast my eyes on the sparkling snow that fills my walk and driveway, the sun makes a refreshing appearance and I get on with it, fueled by all the people I encounter singing the same battle cry. And how do we get through it? Metro Detroiters, you amaze me. It seems to me there are few ways we make it through:
A.We share this experience with countless numbers of our friends and neighbors, seemingly bolstering our strength to persevere,
B.We find ways to enjoy this unique time in the year. We can't go sledding, skiing or ice-skating outdoors in June, so we bundle up and send our west coast relatives a postcard shot of us next to the biggest snowman they've ever seen. Take that !!!
C.We use this time as an excuse to get cozy. Bottoms up to all the hot chocolate we can drink and all the movies and books we can consume.
D.We look forward to our holidays. These holidays distract us and draw us out of winter caves.
E. We hold on to the notion that our season cycles have never failed us and soon enough this too shall pass and we will appreciate spring more than most.
So, while we are digging out again, why not grab a handful of snow, make a snowball and check your aim. Heck, fall out on your front lawn and make some snow angels. Maybe your friends, family or overly involved neighbors will think you've snapped and send you on a brief, but well deserved, sunny and warm getaway. I'll bet the snow will be right here waiting for you when you get back.
That brings me to another thing.......we?ll talk about that next time.

SAINT LEO, Fla. - On Wednesday, the Saint Leo women's basketball team will play host to the University of Tampa. Aside from the usual festivities normally associated with the rivalry that is Saint Leo/Tampa, the Lions and Spartans will participate in the annual WBCA 'Pink Zone' Game in hopes of raising awareness and funds for the Kay Yow Foundation.
Fans are encouraged to wear pink as the campus attempts to "Pink Out" the Marion Bowman Activities Center. In addition, Saint Leo cheerleaders will be taking donations for the notable Kay Yow Foundation throughout the entire women's game.
View the mission and history of 'Pink Zone' below.
The Mission...
"The WBCA Pink Zone® initiative is a global, unified effort for the Women's Basketball Coaches Association's (WBCA) nation of coaches to assist in raising breast cancer awareness on the court, across campuses, in communities and beyond."
The History of Pink Zone...
"The WBCA began the WBCA Pink Zone in 2007 as an initiative to raise breast cancer awareness in women's basketball, on campuses and in communities. The late Kay Yow, former North Carolina State University head women's basketball coach, served as the catalyst for the initiative after her third reoccurrence of breast cancer in 2006.
In 2007, more than 120 schools unified for this effort and helped make the inaugural year a success. In 2008, over 1,200 teams and organizations participated, reaching over 830,000 fans and raising over $930,000 for breast cancer awareness and research. The 2009 campaign raised over $1.3 million, reached over 912,000 fans, unified more than 1,600 participating teams and organizations, and saw 56+ schools break attendance records at their event. In 2010, over 1,800 participants came together to surpass $1,045,000 in donations and reached more than 922,000 fans across the nation. Over 22 schools broke attendance records through their participation.
Overall, the WBCA Pink Zone has raised nearly $3.3 Million, has reached almost 2.7 Million fans, and has unified over 4,700 participants in only four years.
The WBCA's charity of choice is the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, in partnership with The V Foundation. The WBCA strongly encourages all donations from WBCA Pink Zone games to be given to the Fund. The late Kay Yow, the Fund's namesake and former N.C. State head women's basketball coach, served as a catalyst for starting the WBCA Pink Zone. After three bouts with breast cancer, Yow passed away in January 2009.
With your help, we will continue to create more awareness around the cause as well as raise dollars for research that will one day eradicate this disease!"
For a complete overview of the event and how other colleges and universities are working towards a cure, visit the WBCA Pink Zone website.

Uranium producer Paladin Energy's shares shot up on Tuesday as a buoyant nuclear industry cheered the election of a Japanese government expected to more quickly turn the reactors back on.
The conservative, pro-nuclear LDP is expected to implement a more aggressive restart schedule after the Fukushima nuclear disaster of March 2011.
The disaster led to the shutdown of Japan's reactors that represented 11 per cent of global demand, as well as the shutdown of Germany's nuclear plant.
Both countries are among the world's largest users of nuclear energy, which fell out of favour after Fukushima as uranium prices plunged.
A regulatory decision is expected in Japan in April.
Paladin was best-performing stock among the top 100 ASX equities climbing 12 cents, or 12.44 per cent, to $1.085 following an 8.4 per cent jump on Monday.
Swiss investment bank UBS upgraded the company to a buy, saying it saw market conditions improving for uranium.
Fellow miner Rio Tinto-owned Energy Resources of Australia, a bigger uranium producer than Paladin, was third-best among the ASX100 improving by nine cents, or 7.3 per cent, to $1.33.
Equity research group Resource Capital Research (RCR) released its quarterly uranium sector review on Tuesday, pointing to an increased price driven by a large supply gap.
The planned restart of the Metropolis conversion plant in the US next June also caused a bounce in the uranium price, the RCR report said.
Prices are still well below pre-Fukushima levels with the current spot price recently improving to $US43.50 a pound, but still well below the $US67.75 a pound of March last year.
Current contract prices are $US59.50 a pound compared to $US73 a pound pre-Fukushima.
Demand for uranium was expected to increase by 38 per cent by 2020 to 226 million pounds a year but current supply was only half of that, RCR said, with BHP Billiton's delay of the Olympic Dam expansion a major contributor to supply, as well other deferrals or uranium projects.
There are 484 planned and proposed new nuclear reactors globally, supporting price rises, with support and demand led by China and India.
An exception to the bullish performance by uranium stocks was Toro Energy, whose shares tanked after a surprise delay in the Federal Government's decision on its planned Wiluna Uranium project in Western Australia.
The decision due on Tuesday has now been delayed 30 days and Toro shares closed 4.4 per cent weaker at 11 cents.

The full spectrum light of lamps of the NARVA BIO vital series contains beside the full range of the visible part of the spectrum also some components of the UVA and UVB ranges of the spectrum. It is almost completely equivalent by effect to natural sunlight with its well-known feel-good advantages. In addition, the light has an excellent colour rendering property (Ra 1A) also. These lamps are used wherever there is required to compensate the lack of natural sunlight.
NARVA BIO vital has:
-the UV component's revitalising effect
-a balanced spectrum which gives practically the same effect like natural sunlight
-very good colour colour reproduction (Ra > 90) and excellent contrast sensitivity
-80% energy-saving compared to conventional bulbs
Plant breeding and nurseries
The correct light is one of the main factors governing successful plant growth. The blue elements of the spectrum are particularly important in plant breeding. NARVA BIO vital lamps have a colour temperature of 5,800 K and fulfil this requirement perfectly.
Animal husbandry
In intensive animal farming, be it dairy cattle sheds, piggeries, or poultry sheds, the animals usually spend their whole lives under artificial light. The NARVA BIO vital range of lamps can compensate to a great extent for the deficiency in natural sunlight, and so improve the conditions in which the animals are kept.
Auditoriums and lecture theatres
High quality lighting is an important factor in facilitating focussed, fatigue-free learning. The light from the lamps in the NARVA BIO vital range is similar to sunlight, and ensures high levels of concentration even over lengthy periods of time.
Nurseries and schools
The UV component has an important effect on bone formation (vitamin D production) and helps to strengthen the immune system. Furthermore, the NARVA BIO vital range of lamps greatly facilitates colour vision.
