Background: Hypothermia may be an effective treatment for stroke or acute myocardial infarction; however, it provokes vigorous shivering, which causes potentially dangerous hemodynamic responses and prevents further hypothermia. Magnesium is an attractive antishivering agent because it is used for treatment of postoperative shivering and provides protection against ischemic injury in animal models. We tested the hypothesis that magnesium reduces the threshold (triggering core temperature) and gain of shivering without substantial sedation or muscle weakness.
Methods: We studied nine healthy male volunteers (18-40 yr) on two randomly assigned treatment days: 1) Control and 2) Magnesium (80 mg·kg-1 followed by infusion at 2 g·h-1). Lactated Ringer's solution (4°C) was infused via a central venous catheter over a period of approximately 2 hours to decrease tympanic membrane temperature ≈1.5°C·h-1. A significant and persistent increase in oxygen consumption identified the threshold. The gain of shivering was determined by the slope of oxygen consumption vs. core temperature regression. Sedation was evaluated using verbal rating score (VRS, 0-10) and bispectral index of the EEG (BIS). Peripheral muscle strength was evaluated using dynamometry and spirometry. Data were analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA; P<0.05 was statistically significant.
Results: Magnesium reduced the shivering threshold (36.3±0.4 [mean±SD] vs. 36.6±0.3°C, P=0.040). It did not affect the gain of shivering (Control: 437±289, Magnesium: 573±370 ml·min-1·°C-1, P=0.344). The magnesium bolus did not produce significant sedation or appreciably reduce muscle strength.
Conclusions: Magnesium significantly reduced the shivering threshold; however, due to the modest absolute reduction, this finding is considered to be clinically unimportant for induction of therapeutic hypothermia.
Mild hypothermia provides substantial protection against ischemic brain1 and myocardial injury2,3 in animal models. In humans, mild hypothermia improves neurologic outcome in survivors of cardiac arrest4,5, and its application in that setting is now advised by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR)6. Similarly, the use of hypothermia in patients with ischemic heart injury is currently under evaluation7.
Effective thermoregulatory defences prevent the induction of mild-to-moderate hypothermia7,8 in unanesthetized patients9. Drugs known to markedly impair thermoregulation are either anaesthetics10or major sedatives11and produce unacceptable amounts of respiratory depression. The search thus continues for drugs that sufficiently improve thermoregulatory tolerance without simultaneously producing excessive sedation or respiratory depression. In practice, this constitutes a search for drugs that reduce the shivering threshold (triggering core temperature) to a value approximating the target therapeutic core temperature12,13.
Intravenous magnesium has been shown to suppress postoperative shivering,14suggesting that the agent reduces the shivering threshold. Recently, the addition of intravenous magnesium sulfate to a pharmacological antishivering regimen increased the cooling rate in unanaesthetized volunteers13. The drug not only exerts a central effect15, but is also a mild muscle relaxant16and may thus simultaneously reduce the gain of shivering (incremental shivering intensity with progressing hypothermia). Magnesium also confers substantial neurologic and cardiac protection in several animal models17-19.
Magnesium is thus an especially attractive candidate for inducing thermoregulatory tolerance since it may simultaneously protect against tissue ischemia. We therefore tested the hypothesis that magnesium sulphate administration reduces the threshold and gain of shivering sufficiently to permit the induction of hypothermia without causing clinically significant sedation or muscle weakness.
With approval of the Human Studies Committee at the University of Louisville and written informed consent, we studied nine healthy male volunteers. None was obese; taking medications; or had a history of thyroid disease, dysautonomia, or Raynaud's syndrome.
Volunteers participated on two study days; they fasted at least 8 hours before each study day. A minimum of 24 hours elapsed between the study days. On both days, the volunteers were minimally clothed and rested supine on a standard operating room table. Ambient temperature was maintained near 21°C. On the first study day, each volunteer was randomly assigned in a double-blind manner to receive either normal saline (Control) or magnesium. The volunteers were given the alternative treatment on the subsequent study day. On the magnesium day, volunteers were given an intravenous bolus of 80 mg·kg-1 magnesium sulphate that was administered by a syringe pump in a 30-min period. This was followed by an infusion of 2 g·hr-1. On the control day, the volunteers received an equal volume of saline. An investigator who was not otherwise involved in the study prepared syringes containing saline or magnesium; the study was thus fully double-blinded.
A catheter was introduced into the superior vena cava via an antecubital vein. This catheter was used for cold-fluid infusion and blood sampling. A venous catheter was inserted in the other arm for drug administration. A circulating-water (Cincinnati Sub-Zero, Cincinnati, OH) and a forced-air (Augustine Medical, Inc., Eden Prairie, MN) blankets were placed under and on top of the volunteers body, respectively, to maintain mean-skin temperature at 31°C throughout the study. Furthermore, the back, upper body, and lower body were individually maintained at the designated value.
After a 30-min-long i.v. bolus, a drug infusion was initiated in order to maintain stable magnesium plasma levels (see Fig. 1). Sedation, thermal comfort and muscle strength were evaluated in the peri-bolus period. Ten minutes after the beginning of drug infusion, lactated Ringer's solution, cooled to ≈4°C, was infused at rates sufficient to decrease tympanic membrane temperature by ≈1.5°C·h-1 (cooling phase consumption (see Data Analysis) or a total of 70 ml·kg-1 was given. This is a standard and effective way of reducing core temperature as demonstrated in previous studies. Blood samples were obtained: a) at the end of the drug bolus (post-bolus), b) 10 min after the initiation of the drug infusion (pre-cooling), and c) at the shivering threshold (Fig. 1). The volunteers were asked again for their thermal comfort level when shivering threshold was detected.
Heart rate (HR) was measured continuously using electrocardiogram; arterial pressure (BP) was determined oscillometrically at 5-minute intervals at the left ankle. A pulse oximeter continuously determined arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) and respiratory rate (RR) were measured using a nasal catheter connected with a capnometer device (Datex AS3 monitor, Datex-Engstrom, Ohmeda, Helsinki, Finland). Ambient temperature (°C) and relative humidity (%) were also recorded on each study day throughout the experiment. All body temperatures were obtained using Mon-a-therm thermocouples (Tyco-Mallinckrodt Anesthesiology Products, Inc., St. Louis, MO). Core temperature was recorded from the tympanic membrane. Volunteers inserted the aural probe until they felt the thermocouple touch the tympanic membrane; appropriate placement was confirmed when volunteers easily detected gentle rubbing of the attached wire. The aural canal was occluded with cotton, the probe securely taped in place, and a gauze bandage positioned over the external ear. Mean skin-surface temperature was determined from 15 area-weighted sites20. Temperatures were recorded from thermocouples connected to calibrated Iso-Thermex 16-channel electronic thermometers having an accuracy of 0.1°C and a precision of 0.01°C (Columbus Instruments International, Corp., Columbus, OH). Individual and mean-skin temperatures were computed by a data-acquisition system, displayed at 1-second intervals, and recorded at 1-minute intervals.
Arterio-venous shunt vasomotor tone was evaluated with forearm-minus-fingertip and calf-minus-toe skin-temperature gradients. There is an excellent correlation between skin temperature gradients and volume plethysmography21. Vasoconstriction was defined by a forearm skin-temperature gradient exceeding 0°C.
As in previous studies,12,22-27 we used oxygen consumption, as measured by a DeltaTrac™ (SensorMedics Corp., Yorba Linda, CA) metabolic monitor, to quantify shivering; the system was used in canopy-mode. Measurements were averaged over 1-minute intervals and recorded every minute. Oxygen consumption (VO2) measurement started immediately after the end of the bolus infusion and lasted throughout the trial. A substantial and sustained increase in (VO2), at least more than 25% above the baseline, identified the shivering threshold. Exhaust gases from the ETCO2 monitor were returned to the oxygen consumption monitor.
To ascertain that the stability of the magnesium concentrations was within an acceptable clinical level throughout the trial, we obtained blood samples at: a) 10 minutes after the bolus (magnesium or saline) administration, b) just before the start of active cooling, and c) at the shivering threshold.
Sedation was evaluated using a verbal rating score for sleepiness (VRS, 0 = wide awake to 10 = asleep) and the bispectral index of the electroencephalogram (BIS). BIS data were gathered with four sensors arranged in a fronto-temporal montage after mild abrasion of the skin. Impedance of the sensors was evaluated at 15-minute intervals and kept lower than 5 kΩ. BIS values were transmitted to a data-acquisition system every 5 sec, while the smoothing window was set at 30 sec. Volunteers were advised to keep their eyes closed, especially during each recording period. Thermal comfort was also evaluated using a VRS (0 defined the worst imaginable cold, 5 as adequate thermal comfort, and 10 as the worst imaginable heat). On each study day, sedation level was evaluated before (by VRS), during (VRS and BIS) and after (VRS) bolus administration of magnesium or saline. Thermal comfort (VRS) was evaluated at three-minute intervals during bolus administration and at the shivering threshold.
During bolus administration, cardiorespiratory physiology values (HR, BP, ETCO2, RR, SaO2), mean skin temperatures, and core temperature were also evaluated every 3 minutes. At the same times, laser Doppler flowmetry28 was used to detect changes in the skin blood flow associated with vasodilation. A laser detector was placed on the chest. Increase in values from baseline of laser Doppler flowmetry indicated increasing blood flow.
Muscle strength was evaluated in the right upper and left lower extremities using a hand-held dynamometer (MICROFET2, Hoggan Health Industries, Inc, Drapper, UT). This is a simple hand-held device with a small internal load cell capable of measuring muscular force. It is applied to the subject's limb; the subject generates force in an attempt to move the hand-held dynamometer that is held firmly in place by the test administrator29. The peak force generated after each test is recorded and digitally displayed in pounds (lbs). The average of three measurements taken before and after bolus administration was used for further analysis. At the same time as an additional index of peripheral muscle strength, forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1) were measured using a hand-held spirometer (MicroPlus, Micro Medical Limited, Inc., Rochester, England).
Threshold differences of less than 0.5°C are of questionable clinical importance. Previous similar studies in volunteers indicate that the standard deviation of shivering threshold measurements is 0.4°C. Nine volunteers were thus required to provide a 90% power to detect a difference of 0.5°C in the shivering threshold with a crossover design using a paired t-test with an alpha level of 0.05. Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests were used to test shivering threshold data for normality.
A substantial and sustained increase in oxygen consumption identified the shivering threshold. The baseline for this analysis was the steady-state value after the bolus administration but before core cooling had started. Maximum intensity of shivering was identified by an oxygen consumption, which failed to increase further despite continued reduction in core temperature. The gain of shivering was determined by the slope of oxygen consumption vs. core temperature regression. Data from the threshold till the maximum intensity of shivering were used for gain calculation. Paired t-test was used to compare values between the two treatments.
On each study day hemodynamic and respiratory responses, as well as ambient temperature and relative humidity, were averaged within each volunteer; these values were then averaged across volunteers. The 30-minute bolus administration and cooling periods were treated separately.
Interaction between the time (baseline, post-bolus) and the drug (magnesium, saline) administered was evaluated using two-factor analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results of repeated measures during the bolus administration on the two study days were compared using repeated measures ANOVA. To confirm magnesium concentrations were stable, plasma concentrations at the different time-points were compared between the two treatments (magnesium, saline) using two-factor ANOVA (interaction of time with treatment). Results are expressed as means±SDs; P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
The study subjects were 27±4 years old, weighted 88±14 kg, and were 176±8 cm tall. The data from all nine volunteers was used for the threshold calculation. Technical difficulties with data acquisition prevented the collection of oxygen consumption values in one volunteer after the shivering threshold. Consequently, the gain analysis was based on results from the remaining eight volunteers.
Two-factor ANOVA showed that magnesium serum concentration on both study days was maintained essentially stable over time, from the post-bolus time-point till the shivering threshold (P = 0.619, Table 1).
Sedation increased slightly, but significantly, over time from baseline to post-bolus; however, the increase was similar on the control and magnesium treatments. Functional vital capacity (FVC) also decreased slightly, but significantly, over time; but again, the reduction was similar on the control and magnesium treatments (Table 2). During the bolus infusion, magnesium increased thermal comfort score and heart rate (Table 3). These changes were not associated with any objective signs of vasodilation and dissipated by the end of the bolus infusion.
Mean skin temperature was maintained near 31°C on each study day throughout the cooling period. All the volunteers were vasoconstricted before the cold fluid infusion started. Vasoconstriction was determined with the forearm to finger temperature gradient. A negative gradient implied vasoconstriction. Serum concentrations of magnesium remained constant throughout the cooling period for both the control and magnesium treatments, but were more than doubled on the magnesium day. Cardiovascular and respiratory physiology was similar with each treatment. The elapsed time from the initiation of the bolus infusion till the shivering threshold (bolus-to-shivering interval) was the same between the two treatments (Table 4).
Kolmogorov-Smirnov (P = 0.150) and Shapiro-Wilk (P = 0.684) tests showed a normal distribution for the shivering threshold data. Magnesium reduced the shivering threshold by 0.3±0.4°C (paired t-test, P = 0.040) (Fig. 2). The gain of shivering response was 437±289 ml·min-1°C-1 for the control and 573±370 ml·min-1(°C-1 for the magnesium treatment, (P = 0.344, Table 4).
Magnesium is a naturally occurring calcium antagonist and a noncompetitive antagonist of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors30. The exact protective mechanism of magnesium remains uncertain, but it probably acts on multiple levels of the ischemic cascade such as cerebral blood flow31, excitotoxicity32, energy conservation33,34, and vascular homeostasis35. The cardio-protective effect of magnesium after experimental myocardial infarction is most likely caused by its ability to enhance adenosine production19, its anti-thrombotic effect18, or both. Because magnesium is safe, inexpensive, and readily available, many clinicians favour its use for various ischaemic insults − despite the lack of any clear benefit of magnesium on the mortality and morbidity outcomes after stroke36 or acute myocardial infarction37-39. Magnesium provides excellent neuro- and cardio-protection in various experimental models of ischaemia and has been shown to be an effective treatment for postoperative shivering. It was thus an attractive potential agent for facilitating induction of therapeutic hypothermia. However, magnesium at a dose sufficient to raise plasma concentration more than twofold only slightly restrained thermoregulatory defences to hypothermia. Compared with those treated with placebo, the shivering threshold in volunteers given magnesium decreased by only 0.3 °C, to a core temperature of 36.3°C.
There is currently little evidence that hypothermia protects against ischaemia in humans, although the evidence is overwhelming in animals. There is certainly little basis for recommending a specific target temperature for therapeutic hypothermia. Nonetheless, target temperatures from 33 to 34°C are being used clinically by some physicians and in ongoing clinical trials. Because magnesium reduces the shivering threshold only about a tenth of the amount necessary, it seems unlikely that magnesium has the potential to facilitate induction of therapeutic hypothermia, at least as a lone agent.
Magnesium seemed likely to induce thermoregulation tolerance because is an effective treatment for postoperative shivering14. That then raises the question of how magnesium can be an effective treatment for postoperative shivering, yet reduce the shivering threshold by only a few tenths of a °C. The answer is that many postoperative patients have core temperatures only slightly below the normal shivering threshold. This may be the case even when core temperature is relatively low because residual anaesthetics impair thermoregulatory control. Consequently, treatments that reduce the shivering threshold by a couple of tenths of a degree centigrade may be sufficient to attenuate postoperative shivering40. Such treatments will nonetheless be inadequate for induction of therapeutic hypothermia.
Recently, the addition of magnesium sulfate in a meperidine-based pharmacological antishivering regimen increased the cooling rate in unaesthetized volunteers13. This effect was attributed to the observed vasodilation in the majority of the volunteers and associated with increased thermal comfort. In our study, increased thermal comfort during magnesium bolus was not related to peripheral vasodilation in our subjects, as determined by extremity temperature gradients. It seems that, despite the modest effect of magnesium on the shivering threshold, this agent could potentially play a contributing role for induction of therapeutic hypothermia.
Magnesium sulfate, as used clinically, increases cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) magnesium concentrations by only about 20-25%, with a peak concentration reached after two-to-four hours depending on the concentration gradient between plasma and CSF41. We used an intravenous infusion of magnesium as proposed by Sibai, et al.42 for seizure prophylaxis in preeclamptic women. Relatively high plasma concentrations were achieved immediately after the bolus administration; these were maintained until the shivering threshold was reached about two hours after magnesium bolus initiation, thus ensuring adequate CSF levels. Because of this, we were unable to determine whether the observed thermoregulatory action of magnesium was of central15 or peripheral origin16.
Despite the known central15 and peripheral muscle relaxation16 effects of magnesium, we were unable to demonstrate any significant changes in the sedation level or muscle strength during the bolus administration. It is likely that larger doses of magnesium sulfate would produce both greater thermoregulatory effects and a greater risk of complications. Nonetheless, previous studies indicate that the thermoregulatory response to most intravenous drugs is a linear function of plasma concentration43,44. Thus, an even larger, potentially hazardous dose of magnesium seems unlikely to produce a useful reduction in the shivering threshold.
A limitation of our study is that it was conducted in healthy volunteers. Most results from volunteer studies can be extrapolated to patients; however, patients with underlying disease and those who are critically ill may respond differently. It thus remains possible that magnesium will prove more effective at inducing thermoregulatory tolerance in patients with stroke or other serious neurological problems.
In summary, magnesium in doses sufficient to increase plasma concentrations more than twofold reduced the shivering threshold marginally and did not significantly alter the gain of shivering in healthy volunteers. Magnesium thus exerts a clinically unimportant effect, as a sole agent; however, it remains to be studied as a potentially useful adjunct for induction of therapeutic hypothermia in patients with stroke or myocardial ischemia.

President's 2017 Budget Request Includes $248M to Complete Calexico Land Port Modernization Project
SAN FRANCISCO — Today, U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Administrator Denise Turner Roth announced significant new investments that are a part of the President's fiscal year 2017 budget request. The proposed budget is focused on tackling our nation's greatest challenges by making smart investments in federal infrastructure and includes funding for the Calexico Land Port of Entry in Southern California.
"The President's budget makes necessary investments to further strengthen our nation's real estate portfolio and our land ports of entry infrastructure," said GSA Administrator Roth. "This proposal demonstrates the administration's continued commitment to ensuring our ports effectively support economic growth by improving conditions for both vehicular and pedestrian traffic; it also provides U.S. Customs and Border Protection the modernized space it needs to secure our nation."
The proposed budget includes the following investments in Calexico, Calif.:
Calexico West Land Port of Entry Phase 2 - $248 million
The Calexico West Land Port of Entry (LPOE) is the third busiest land port in California, with 4 million northbound vehicles and 4.8 million pedestrians crossing each year. GSA proposes $248 million to undertake the last phase a two-phase construction project for the reconfiguration and expansion of the existing LPOE in downtown Calexico, Calif. Phase 2 includes a new pedestrian processing facility; administrative offices; five southbound privately owned vehicle (POV) inspection lanes with canopies and booths; six additional northbound POV inspection lanes; a parking structure and demolition of the existing main building.
The expanded facilities will occupy both the existing inspection compound and the site of the former commercial inspection facility, decommissioned in 1996 when commercial traffic was redirected to the newly completed LPOE six miles east of downtown Calexico. The project will increase operation space, reduce traffic congestion, and create a safe environment for port employees and visitors.

Today, members of the Fanon Community, I have been..enlightened. I have seen one of the few fanon wikis greater than our own. I have stuided their doctrine, their way of doing things. And from them, I present, The avatar's Upper Path. (parody)
Let it Begin!
Fanonic Communities are tied together via our will to create. To Alter. TO CHANGE THE VERY WAYS of the canonical community. To create our own truths. That's what we're here for. And The avatar's Upper Path shall be your guide. :p
Way of the Ninja
The Way of the Ninja (WoN) is a major participant of the Upper Path. Here, we establish, a collaboration. We use our capabilities to create. To Envision. The World of Avatar, is limited. There is limited knowledge, limited creatures, limited everything. We must break that. A true universe is forever expanding, and we shall make it so!
We can create a new "age". You see, the Avatar World is very limited, there are slight mentions of wars, of previous eras. What happened then? It is our duty to find out. And that we shall! I propose the creation of a "FanProj" (Fanon Project). This FanProj, shall focus on creating a new age. Most of our fanons, delve into the future. Some go a little into the past. We look into the histories of some characters. But, what if...we created a whole new age? With varying characters. Varying Everything. We could make one of long ago: The Age before the Avatar/Early Avatar Age. There we can expand. We establish the setting, and users are given the capability to expand, to create their own fanon. (similar to COW except more "serious", in a way. We're creating a whole new age.)
Way of the Dragon
The Way of the Dragon (WoD) is one of growth, one of expansion, one of development. We must establish links with other Fanon Communities. It is righteous. I propose we begin to affiliate with other respectable fanon wikis/sites. We can add links to them from us, and vice versa. Even a page about them. (Avatar Wiki Example, Other Canon Wiki, Other Fanon Wiki) . It is righteous, so we shall follow. UPDATE: Proposal Ratified
Way of the Pirate
Pirates Suck.
Way of the Spirit
The Way of the Spirit (WoS) seeks that we establish a powerful culture that emanates far behind our borders. We should seek a level of culture and standards. We have to enforce them. Is our 30 days policy, too weak? We must be firm. We should seek to heighten our already high standards. We are currently one of the best, why not the best?
That, sirs, is The avatar's Upper Path. We should follow it for it is most righteous. Which one do you support? Vote and Comment.
Based on these results, we can call an IRC meeting or forum discussion
Please remember to stay civil. This means that you should not harass other users or their views.

I'm 19 and trying to fix my self-esteem. A friend of mine recommended that i wear a bikini, because i should not feel ashamed of my body. I used to feel super insecure and would wear jeans (even in the summer!) and t-shirts all the time (even when getting together with a friend or a shopping-trip). For my birthday, my sister took me shopping at this new hip consignment store, and we picked out some short-shorts and crop-tops together, along with some other cute tops and accessories.
I'm wondering if this was a huge mistake? It's getting into summer now and crop-tops are in, but would i be revealing too much- especially by wearing slightly revealing shorts with them
The second question is because my mom told me i shouldn't wear shorts to my job; she thinks it looks unprofessional, and the shorts i chose are too revealing for work. It's super hot biking to work, and i've seen other coworkers wear shorts, although it's not like i was scrutinizing them because i don't know how "modest" the one i saw was compared to the one i'm thinking of wearing. Should i invest in some shorts that are a little more modest for work? How do i even know what's modest and what's not? And should what i wear to work be the same as what i wear with my friends or by myself?
I wanna embrace who i am, and i wanna dress cute. But i also don't wanna be a slut!
Most Helpful Girl
Whether you can wear on your job, depends on the culture there. But what you wear in private is your own choice.11|00|0
thanks and happy that a simple answer helped you.

Help For Alan Jackson Themed Cake For Mother's Day
Decorating By me_mysister Updated 5 May 2010 , 3:32am by UpAt2am
Hello all! I need help! I was asked to do an Alan Jackson themed cake for someone's mom for Mother's Day. I was thinking of doing a cowboy hat and do a chocolate figure of Alan Jackson on top...however, I am having trouble with the figure. What else can I do so that it would represent Alan Jackson?
I really can't offer any help but when I read your post I thought of my mother. She is a die hard Allen Jackson fan. Can't wait to see what ya come up with .
Cowboy hat - or maybe if you are ambitous - a juke box!!!!!
since alan jackson is especially know for being patriotic, maybe you could decorate the cowboy hat to look like an American flag?

The plugin locationmap would then mount the dynamically generated locationmap. So, Daisy plugin, which already has a static locationmap that gets mounted, would simply mount a dynamically generated one. I think this is better than having these exceptions but I'm not convinced it's a great solution either. --tim

Daylight Saving Time
There is a global move to permanently END time change
The fourth beast shall devour the whole earth.
10 kings shall arise, then a different one who will subdue 3 of the kings.
He shall speak words against the Most High (GOD).
He shall wear out the saints (Christians), and shall change times and the law.
They (Christians) shall be given into his hand for 3.5 years.
Excerpted from Daniel 7:23-25 - Revelation 13 mentions beasts also.
Just think how well the Prophet Daniel fits the lawless Barak Hussein Obama!
Will Obama permanently END time changes?
Why We Have Daylight Saving Time
Nov. 2, 2013
Winter is approaching and daylight hours get shorter.
On Nov. 3 daylight hours for USA will end even earlier in the evening when we move our clocks back an hour.
Daylight saving time was primarily started in 1918 in the United States to conserve energy. The Standard Time Act established time zones and incorporated daylight saving months into federal law. This was during World War I, when national efforts were made to conserve materials for the war effort. Homes would need to use less energy to stay lit.
After the war, daylight saving time was revoked. When food conservation became mandatory in the United Sates during World War II daylight saving time was reinstated as War Time.
After the war the issue of daylight saving time was handled on a local level. This led to a great deal of confusion as different locations were constantly operating at different times. The Uniform Time Act was passed in 1966 to solve the problem. States were given the option to opt out of daylight saving time if they passed proper ordinances.
Some states such as
Arizona and Hawaii
have chosen not to observe it.
Will Barak Husatan Obama put USA on permanent daylight time?

clocks will be turned BACK an hour at 2am local times. The United States spans 6 time zones, sharing 4 zones with Canada - Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific Times. Hawaii Time and Alaska Time are separate Time zones
Daylight Saving Time reverts to standard time at 2 am on the first Sunday in November.
DST is NOT observed in Hawaii and Arizona.
Daylight Savings ends in Israel Oct. 26

Russia ENDS Daylight Time
October 26, 2014
- Russia will turn back its clocks for the last time today to permanently adopt winter hours. Russian time zones will increase from 9 to 11, from the Pacific to the EU borders. Crimea adjusted to match Moscow time.
Keep Daylight Saving Time year round
Different Nations change on different dates, lends to confusion
Never was comfortable with DST either - at the end of Fall, had to see it getting dark 1 hour earlier(which looked depressing). Around the beginning of Spring, ended up losing 1 hour of sleep.
I am a morning person, up early, so I love DAYLIGHT time.
I dont like winter or winter time.
Revelation 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.

Diesel is the other main villian of the series, besides Gordon.
Devious Diesel is a black diesel shunter who is the member of the Big Bad Engines. He is friends with James and they say rude things to Duck (from Duck the Really Useful Engine) and Stepney (from Stepney the Really Useful Engine).
In 2012, Diesel teams up with Duncan, Daisy and Spencer to take over Sodor, so they push Henry under the coal hopper, push Peter Sam off the rails, call James Rusty Scrap Iron and give Toby a fright, and they race away to destory Sir Topham Hatt and office with bombs. But they come off a tight bend, hit the bombs and are destroyed when they are defeated by Thomas and Edward. After they are restored, they stay in the Crovan Shed for two months.

Five-Year-Old Among School Pupils Found With Drugs
A Heart investigation's found a five-year-old is among hundreds of North East pupils to be caught with drugs in school
After a banner celebrating Bishop Auckland Olympic gymnast Amy Tinkler was stolen, Heart's replaced it!
The 16 year old will be heading back to her club, South Durham Gymnastics, after picking up a bronze medal at the Rio 2016 Olympics.
Paul Anderson, trustee at her gymnastics club, originally had a banner made for her return, but it was stolen.
Heart's Justin and Kelly heard about it and decided to get a new one made up for her!
Welcome home Amy!
UPDATED 23rd August 2016, 7am
16 year old Amy Tinkler from Bishop Auckland, who won bronze at Rio 2016, is back in the North East later - but a banner marking her homecoming has been taken.
Her gymnastics club, South Durham Gymnastics posted on Facebook:
"With only hours to go until our Olympic Medallist Amy Tinkler arrives home it's with great sadness that some thieves have taken down the banner we had put up on Bracksfarm roundabout at the entrance to Amy's estate!!!
We were very excited for Amy to see how much the town was getting behind her and would like to ask anyone who perhaps knows the whereabouts of the sign to kindly return it before midnight!!!
If you have taken it as a souvenir then please take it back and perhaps we could arrange for it to be signed and given back to you once Amy has returned home!!

Breakfast Bread Pudding
Recipe by wife2abadge
Make the night before and pop in the oven for a delicious breakfast! Serve with maple syrup or heated raspberry jam. I have halved it with no difficulty. Prep time includes chilling time.
Top Review by Annacia
I have been looking forward to trying this for awhile and finally had everything on hand today. I was anticipating a rich and creamy treat but sadly it failed to deliver that. I very rarely use cream cheese but thought I'd indulge here. Somehow it just vanished into the pudding without adding any creaminess or richness. I switched the amounts of egg and milk (more milk than egg) and still the puddings main characteristic was "egginess". It's best part was the hint of maple but I found that it really needed quite a bit more sweetening(I sprinkled Splenda and cinnamon on my serving) and I think that it would be improved by adding cinnamon, raisins and/or nuts. I'm really sorry to only give this 3 stars but I found it shy of keeping the promise it gives when you see the cream cheese and maple syrup in the ingredients.
See Discussion:1 Review

Oncom Spore Starter, Black, 20 g, Like Tempeh
Usually ships in 3-4 business days
Product Description
Black Oncom Starter Spores with rice powder as a carrier 20gr. Oncom is one of the traditional staple foods of West Javan (Sundanese) cuisine, and Indonesia. There are two kinds of oncom: red oncom and black oncom. Oncom is closely related to tempeh; both are foods fermented using mold spores.
Usually oncom is made from the by-products from the production of other foods -- soy bean tailings (okara) left from making tofu, peanut press cake left after the oil has been pressed out, cassava tailings when extracting the starch, coconut presscake remaining after oil has been pressed out or when coconut milk has been produced. Since oncom production uses by-products to make food, it increases the economic efficiency of food production.
Our potent Oncom starter is produced by a traditional process, which gives the tempeh that special taste and texture. This Oncom Starter Kit can produce more then 10 Lbs of ready to use Oncom and contains enough starter for 4 normal batches. Every batch gives you 8 cups of FREE soymilk!
The Oncom culture contains spores of a Rhizophus Oligosporus Culture and rice powder, needed as a mixture medium, which makes oncom, and keeps the traditional taste!
Make your own Oncom, just order our Oncom Starter, we include clear instructions. Shipping is cheap, and soon you will be eating your own Oncom, and the bonus FREE Soymilk.
Contains: Black Oncom Starter (Rhizophus Oligosporus Culture mixture), Rice Flour. Does not contain MSG or preservatives. GMO free.
This product is manufactured, and packaged in a facility that does NOT produces wheat, dairy, nut, or fish products.

CompletionAir, not even a year old and just beginning work on its first aircraft interiors, will expand dramatically with the upcoming merger with former rival Premier Air Center. The two companies, both at St. Louis Regional Airport in Alton, Ill., signed a letter of intent to merge last month. CompletionAir, launched in January, received its Part 145 repair facility certification in July and is focused on widebody completions. Its 75,000-sq-ft hangar will accommodate aircraft as large as a Boeing 767. Premier Air Center, founded in 1986, provides interior refurb work for a broad array of twin turboprops and light business jets and also maintains a full-service FBO at the airport. Premier Air Center is also one of only five independent factory-authorized Citation service centers in the U.S.

- This is a subpage about Masses. Click on the provided link to see the full article.
Randall is greedy and quite ruthless, also being sneaky and short tempered, making him a rather unlikable character to those around him, including his main enemies, Mike and Sulley. He's really harmful and doesn't seem to care for kids or anything, as judged by his work in Monsters Inc. Additionally, his work as an antagonist has put him at high ranks among Pixar's villains, often being seen as one of the greatest.
He currently ranks at 1st on the tier list, having great speed and offense while having good spacing tactics and the unique ability to blend in with the environment, making him rather difficult to hit, but his abysmal defense and really high falling speed make him hard to use in certain pairs of hands.
Randall is a Zone-Breaker character, a hit-and-run type character who's capable of shredding defenses with his low lag moves and his high speed, utilizing low and long hitting moves and heavy hitting projectiles, and the ability to turn invisible and out of sight. This makes him slippery, difficult to hit, and a formidable opponent if you can't figure out a strategy to defeat him.
Randall attacks with quick physical swipes and the scream canisters, collecting grunts and the like in them, although the louder grunts get sucked in. He can choose to toss those canisters or release a high pitched scream, consisting of powerful waves that damage several opponents in front of him. He can additionally camouflage and hide from his opponents, and attack when he's even able to be seen. Randall's special moves involve him doing scares, which can have various effects, depending on the ones he pulls. For example, a low pitched growl can lower defense, and a normal scare can temporarily paralyze an opponent. Most of these work best if he's close up, so staying close to opponents will be the best strategy with him.
In summary, Randall is a tricky player to play with, but if you use your attacks right and use his abilities to their max potential, the effort really pays off. If one doesn't pay attention to his glaring poor defense or his real high falling speed and low jump though, they can find themselves in troublesome situations.
These are Randall's basic statistics in the game.
- Power: 7/10
- Defense: 2/10
- Speed: 10/10
- Jump: 3/10
- Weight: 4/10
- Focus Buildup: Low
- Healing Speed: Low
- General Attack Lag: Very Low
Randall's attacks include claw swipes, being able to charge the Scream Canisters and release their energy or toss them, and do attacks whilst being hidden. He can also bite opponents and slap his tail at them as distance, and fire several pencils and notebooks from his time in University.
Randall's signature move is the Door Slam, a move which has him slam a door into an opponent and take them into an alternative dimension, where people beat upon them with chairs and the like, them taking mass damage. Afterwards, he can use the broken door like a projectile.
Home Stages
Monsters Inc.
Monsters Inc. is Randall's default home stage, and it's a long line of doorways held up on a railway, with many more lines with doors below and above. This is the only stage in the game that has a completely empty floor; you must fight on the doors. You can also hold onto the doors or enter them to fight on solid floors, although you must get out before the doors close on you, knocking you out.
Music from across Monsters Inc. plays in this level.
Monsters University
Monsters University is Randall's unlockable home stage, and it is a rather flat level, in a Final Destination-like style. However, kids from around the University will come on the stage and attack the players. Be careful! Some of these can be especially nasty.
Music from across Monsters University plays in this level.
Alternative Costumes
- Costume effects can be turned off.
- Green: Randall becomes green, the same green as Mike. No extra effects.
- Darker Colors: Randall becomes blue and purple, the same colors as Sulley. No extra effects.
- Grey: Randall becomes grey, the same grey as his boss, Waternoose. No extra effects.
- Kid: Randall looks younger and is a bit shorter, wearing glasses, resembling his University form.
- Green Kid: Randall looks younger and is a bit shorter, wearing glasses, resembling his University form, although green to match Mike.
- Darker Kid: Randall looks younger and is a bit shorter, wearing glasses, resembling his University form, although blue and purple to match Sulley.
- Grey Kid: Randall looks younger and is a bit shorter, wearing glasses, resembling his University form, although grey to match Waternoose.
- ENTRANCE #1: Randall appears from the shadows, removing himself of camouflage.
- ENTRANCE #2: Randall comes from Mike's car, spreading out his hands.
- UP TAUNT: Randall looks up, then looks at the opponent, quoting "Do you hear that? It's the wind of change...."
- SIDE TAUNT: Randall leans forward, holding two Scream Canisters, blinking as he turns invisible and back.
- DOWN TAUNT: As if speaking to him, he mutters "I'm in the zone today, Sullivan."
- VICTORY POSE #1: "Look at everybody's favorite scarer now, you stupid, pathetic waste!" he yells out loud, making a triumphant pose.
- VICTORY POSE #2: Randall turns invisible before coming back to visibility, doing a scare towards the screen.
- VICTORY POSE #3: "You still think this is about that stupid scare record?" says Randall evilly.
- MUSICAL THEME: "Randall's Attack" from Monsters Inc.
- VICTORY THEME: A small sample of the aforementioned theme.

For the second time this past week, the options market on Friday flashed pessimism that the teen-fashion retailer can cling to the year's gains through next month's hail of earnings reports from retailers.
Abercrombie's shares fell three cents...

10 USA-Made Jeans You Should Know About
One hundred years after the brand launched in 1914, Salvatore Ferragamo has tapped photographer and filmmaker Francesco Carozzini to shoot A Man's Story, and online menswear project highlighting men who make their own rules.
Carrozzini says: "From A$AP Rocky to Ryan McGinley what links these young men is their single-minded approach to life. They've not been afraid to make their own rules, even when it's meant potential failure. That's what makes them so inspiring, and the stories they've shared with us so compelling."

Bewick's Swan at Klamath Refuge on Saturday
Expand Messages
- A photographer friend, along with several photographers and birders saw a Bewick's Swan with Tundra Swans on the Oregon side of the Cal Oregon line near the Klamath Refuges on Saturday.
I reviewed a photograph of the bird and it is not a Whooper Swan, and it's size was similar to the Tundras it was with.
I asked for the exact location and she sent me the following:
Exact location was township road (off 97 just north of the refuge) in a flooded field. The ipad map feature named the dirt road which you cut from township road to state line highway (which ends at the out road of the auto tour by the eagle in cottonwood trees) to be called "klamath straits drain east emabankment"... the Bewick's was in the water of an irrigated field at the intersection of township road and the aquaduct as named above, south east corner of that intersection but viewed from 100 yards in from township road. It was with mostly all tundras and one lone Canada Goose.
I can email a copy of the photo to anyone requesting it.

22 Dead, Dozens Injured in Manchester Bombing
22 people have been killed and over 50 injured in a horrific terrorist attack following a concert in Manchester, UK. The blast took place last night as concertgoers began to file out of the building at the conclusion of the performance. The witness accounts and video captured of the chaos and carnage are terrifying. One witness described seeing "bodies, blood, and people's belongings, scattered all about" as she ran out with the frightened and screaming crowds trying to exit the arena. The concert was that of American pop star Ariana Grande, who was popular among younger audiences. Sadly, children were […]Read more »

Ernie from Locomotion DJ played at our wedding in East Bridgewater. They did a great job. We got to choose our favorite songs. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the dance floor was full the whole night. We would highly recommend them. The DJ either makes or breaks the event, in our case it was the best time ever. Thanks Ernie and Dave

Almost 4 months later and all our friends and family are still raving about the music and atmosphere at our wedding reception in July! Going into our reception we knew we would be dancing a lot..we had no idea we would dance for almost six hours, with a packed dance floor the entire time! Ernie invited all of our wedding guests (nearly 170!) to the dance floor for the first song of the night, and EVERY single person got out of their seats to join us on the dance floor. AMAZING! Ernie played every song we requested, tossed glow sticks and sunglasses out to our guests, and made sure we enjoyed every single second of our wedding night! As soon as we entered the reception Ernie took over and made all of our dreams come true! Thank you, Ernie and Locomotion DJ! You are truly one of the best!

Ernie was the DJ for our wedding in January 2014 - everything about working with Ernie was easy and fun! He did an INCREDIBLE job with everything from the ceremony through the reception - the dance floor was PACKED all night! I would book him again in a second!

I hired Ernie for my wedding and he did a fantastic job. Met with me to go iver all the details of how I wanted things to go and he respected anddis exactly as I requested. I have been to events with other DJ's where they do what they like/dislike not Ernie! He was great! People said my wedding was great and He helped make that happen!

We hired Ernie Houle with Locomotion DJ productions for our wedding in February. Ernie was extremely helpful, and very professional throughout the entire year long planning process. Although he was busy with several events, he made me feel like I was his top priority. On the night of the wedding, Ernie Houle and Dave Connoly worked diligently to ensure that our music selections were executed perfectly, from the introductions to the farewell dance. Booking with Ernie was the best decision I made! If you book with him, you are sure to have an amazing night for any function! I would, without hesitation, hire him again for my next event!

Over the past 7 years I have had the pleasure of attending many events in which Locomotion DJ supplied the music. At every event people would comment how great Ernie Houle and Locomotion DJ was that when it came time for me to pick a DJ for my wedding the choice was clear. He is a terrific DJ and I recommend him to everyone.

Oven-Fried Chicken
You'll swear this chicken, lower in fat and calories but still crunchy and delicious, was made in the frying pan. Using skinless chicken lowers the fat content by almost half and the calories by about a third. Whole-wheat breading adds a little fiber to an already-healthier oven-fried chicken.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
Source: Everyday Food, May 2009
- 1 whole chicken, cut into 10 pieces, wings reserved for another use
- 1/4 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 6 slices whole-wheat bread
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Using a paper towel to grip, remove skin from chicken. In a large bowl, toss chicken with buttermilk, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt, and teaspoon pepper. Marinate at room temperature 30 minutes (or refrigerate up to overnight).
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a food processor, pulse bread until coarse crumbs form. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and toss with oil. Bake crumbs until golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes, tossing twice. Transfer to a large bowl. Set a wire rack over sheet.
Working with one piece at a time, lift chicken from buttermilk mixture (letting excess drip off) and dredge in breadcrumbs, pressing firmly to adhere. Transfer chicken to rack.
Bake, without turning, until cooked through, 30 to 40 minutes, tenting with foil if browning too quickly.
Cook's Notes
Baking the chicken on a wire rack keeps the bottom of the pieces from becoming soggy. For spicier chicken, add a few shakes of hot sauce to the buttermilk.

Azniv111 JUL, 2017Has anyone else noticed that this is the WRONG video / WRONG recipe? Recipe is for Oven-Fried Chicken with a crust of whole-wheat breadcrumbs - NOT cornflakes. Video is for Cornflake-Crusted Baked Chicken. They are two totally different recipes.Reply
MS125294536 JUL, 2017Is there something I can substitute for the corn flakes in the coating? I don't use cereal or crackers.Reply
MS114610942 SEP, 2014Since I didn't want to put the chicken straight on the wire rack, it didn't come out like the picture, but it was AMAZING!!! Really juicy and full of flavour! It was also very quick and easy to make. Everone loved it!Reply
Gigi_s Mom7 JUL, 2012Juicy and tasty! I felt good about serving this to my family. Even my 1 year old loved it. I used twice the buttermilk and garlic plus added a bit of hot sauce and marinated overnight. I added a little thyme to the breadcrumbs. I'm definitely going to pass this recipe along.Reply
bredalis6 JUN, 2012Its nice to read previews reviews and I made this recipe before, I didn't use garlic just salt and pepper. Southwest spices to the bread crumbs, follow the cook process...done!!! my kids love the flavor, healthier way and better than any other recipe...thanks MarthaReply

HartsCottage1 MAY, 2011My husband described this as "fried chicken as they would make it in Paris." He loved it. I chose it because I am very picky about what oils I will use and this used olive oil. Delicious! Kids loved it too.Reply
ghoddy13 MAR, 2011This was easy! Marinating overnight helps to really absorb the flavorsReply
MS11257784031 MAY, 2009Delicious flavor! I used 1/2 c buttermilk, 2 garlic cloves, and a 1 pound package of chicken thighs. I also used canned bread crumbs instead of making my own.Reply

Flotation is used in gold, copper, lead, zinc, and coal mining to recover fine mineral particles from ore slurry. This technique involves filling the slurry into a frothing solution to separate the particles. Due to their surface tension some particles float to the top with the air bubbles where they can be extracted; fragments which still contain large amounts of ore sink to the bottom of the tank as so-called "tailings".
The laboratory flotation machine FT 100 XL is used to determine the percentages of the reagents required in a production flotation cell and for metallurgical sampling. A variety of flotation cells is available for use with the FT 100 XL. Tank and agitator are made of stainless steel. The machine is designed for a material fineness of 500 to 750 microns.
The FT 100 XL is a precise and reliable tool to obtain reproducible test results to ascertain the operational capability of flotation plants.

Let's all help Fidel on his way to his just reward.
I looked up his net worth – on the net, so it is his net net worth. At last count he has squirreled away $977,000,000.00 dollars, not bad for a guy who lives in an impoverished country with no toilet paper.
So remember, as we "normalize" relations with old money bags, who can only afford green fatigues out on the lecture circuit, this new influx of US dollars in the way of stupid American tourists in paradise may just put Mr. Castro in the Billionaire Dictator Club.
Add that to Obama's list of achivements he didn't promise but has always planned.
