Digital Radiography
Radiographs (x-rays) are a powerful diagnostic tool that aids greatly in diagnosing your pet's medical issues. X-rays are commonly used to diagnose cardiac, pulmonary, abdominal and musculoskeletal conditions, just to name a few.
VCA Cherokee Animal Hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art digital radiography, which furthers the diagnostic ability of conventional flat films. With digital images, the doctors are able to manipulate the images in a variety of ways, honing in on the problem areas and changing contrast colors to see things that may not be clearly visible on a traditional view. In addition, digital images are easily shared with specialists by either sending a disk with you or emailing the images to the specialist's office directly.
All radiographs taken at VCA Cherokee Animal Hospital are reviewed by a board-certified Veterinary Radiologist for diagnostic confirmation. We also have access to a "stat" radiological service should immediate consultation be needed in emergency cases. We believe that the combination of these services strengthens the quality of medicine that we can offer and greatly aids in diagnosing your pet's condition, ultimately benefiting his or her well-being.
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create a moving image of your pet's internal organs. This diagnostic tool produces highly detailed images that allow the doctors to evaluate the functions of the heart and detect location and size of foreign bodies in your pet's stomach, among other uses. We routinely perform echocardiograms and abdominal cavity and bladder sonograms using our ultrasound. If needed, our ultrasound is used to guide biopsy needles into abdominal tumors for surgery-free biopsies. And, of course, the doctors use the ultrasound to count kittens or puppies inside a pregnant momma cat or dog.
Ultrasound examination can alleviate the high cost and possible complications associated with exploratory surgery. Your pet will usually lie still during the procedure, with you right next to him/her to calm any fears and watch the examination. This can all be done during a regular office call. While not always avoiding surgery, ultrasound examinations are a great first step in the diagnostic process.

Audi SQ7 TDI
Audi Q7 e-tron 3.0 TDI quattro
The second generation of the Audi Q7 comes with a fascinating drive system, suspension system, assistance systems, infotainment and connectivity with innovative technology. The large SUV is up to 325 kilograms (716.5 lb) lighter than its predecessor and reduces CO2 emissions by as much as 50 g per kilometer (80.5 g/mi). Scheduled to follow shortly after the market launch of the Q7, the Audi Q7 e-tron quattro is the world's first plug-in hybrid with a six-cylinder diesel engine and quattro drive. *The collective fuel consumption of all models named above and available on the German market can be found in the list provided at the end of this Basic Info.
Basic Information

Just days after a Minnesota teenager's plight with a devastating spinal injury suffered in an accidental yet dangerous youth hockey check received national attention, another almost identical incident just miles away left a second teenage hockey star hospitalized after she had sent a Facebook message to friends before the game saying that she would be playing in honor of Jack Jablonski, the teen paralyzed earlier.
As reported by the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Minneapolis CBS affiliate WCCO and a handful of other Twin Cities media outlets, St. Croix (Minn.) Luther High senior Jenna Privette suffered a serious injury during her Minnehaha (Minn.) Saints club hockey game against the St. Paul (Minn.) Blades. After firing a shot on goal, Privette was reportedly checked into the boards by an opposing defender. According to St. Croix athletic director Carl Lemke, the high school senior almost immediately lost feeling throughout most of her body.
"The system needs to be reformed,'' Penny Privette, Jenna Privette's mother, told the Star Tribune. "[Checking] is getting so out of control."
Fortunately, there is good news. Privette's father and coach told the Star Tribune that his daughter had regained feeling in her upper body and that an MRI had revealed no spinal cord breaks, but he still sounded a general sense of concern over the incident, particularly because it came at a time when the entire Minnesota hockey scene had focused on trying to avoid dangerous checking in games.
"She's irritable and in a lot of pain," Dan Privette, Jenna Privette's father, told the Star Tribune, "which is, in a way, kind of good."
"She's had an MRI, and it did not show breaks in the spinal cord, which makes it different than Jablonski's [injury]," Lemke told the Star Tribune. "It's an injury she's had in the past. Hopefully, it will improve."
While the relative odds of Privette's complete recovery are good -- the teen still had not regained feeling in her legs as of Sunday, but the lack of a spinal break is seen as a positive sign for full future mobility -- the fact that she would need to be hospitalized because of a dangerous hit in the immediate aftermath of Jablonski's injury is a truly disconcerting trend for youth hockey in Minnesota and, perhaps, nationwide.
If anything, Privette's injury has led to further debate in Minnesota, where coaches are now openly discussing what can be done to help legislate against any potential dangerous hits, all in the name of helping keep prep hockey players safe on the ice. While no video was made public of the hit that injured Jablonski, it's clear from the footage directly below that the check that befell Privette was a dangerous check from behind.
"I don't know how you couldn't have some hard questions after this,'' Benilde-St. Margaret's (Minn.) High coach Ken Pauly, who was Jablonski's coach, told the Star Tribune. "My take is, you can't legislate against tragedy. But what can you do to lessen the likelihood that a tragedy will occur?
"That said, the permissive culture of checking from behind is an issue. Why would that not be treated like fighting? Do we need rule changes? No. We need a change in mentality."
Added Jablonski's mother:
"We just want to make sure this doesn't happen again,'' Leslie [Jablonski] said last week. "And if they keep playing the game the way it is, there's going to be more attacks in situations like this."

Dear Him Indoors
It is Valentine's Day so why not tell the world how much I love you? I know, puke, vomit and all that.
I met you in 1998 following a really awful relationship breakdown. He had cheated, my faith in men and myself was at an all time low and I had decided to exist rather than live.
Existence requires an income so I found work. I cannot remember seeing you or meeting you for the first time. I later learned I had got the job you had applied for. You were less than impressed as I was an external candidate and you were an insider.
You found me to be aloof and way too mouthy about women's rights. I thought you had an over-inflated sense of yourself. How on earth could this be a match made in heaven?
Can you remember the moment you decided I might be worth knowing? We were at a works do and the drink flowed. You say you saw a human side to me for the first time. Whatever happened that night, we wanted to continue the fun and moved on to two pubs playing pool and quizzing. You had a girlfriend at the time so nothing happened and I returned home to my spinster flat.
I think we became friends that night and sought each other out for drinks after work although always in a group. We laughed a lot and shared our views on how to change the world most effectively.
We got together on the night I left my job. Drink had flowed and barriers were down. You stayed the night with me panicking in the morning because someone was coming to fit my washing machine. You recall how I threw you out really early and you did not know how to read that.
So what attracted me to you then?
Your dark, swarthy looks. You have a vaguely Italian look about you. Your body which was a lovely treat the first time I saw you naked. Slender and I counted myself a very lucky lady indeed.
You made me laugh and even better, you thought I was funny too. I still adore it when you really laugh out loud at one of my so-called witticisms.
You were and remain caring always going the extra mile for your clients. In that we are alike and the perfect match.
Needless to say, you are very skilled in the bedroom (or wherever the mood takes us) department. However, you are also patient and have lived with the dry seasons where through pregnancy or depression I have not felt up to that loving feeling.
You are a creative cook making the best steak dinners ever.
You really do want to make me happy and would do just about anything to help that happen.
You have a strong interest in current affairs but combine that with a real ability to act like a student and be silly. We have some very good party nights for two.
You believe in me including when I have no faith in myself whatsoever.
Are you perfect? Not a bit of it and some things about you I really struggle with. Have you hurt me? Hell yes. I know I have hurt you too sometimes. It is not a perfect relationship but then neither your nor I are perfect either. It is far too good to give up though.
Do I love you? Yes, I do and I like being an "us". We make sense to us even when others struggle to understand us. We have cuddles, laughter, conversation and love. We'll do.
Happy Valentine's Day to my bestest friend ever. I was once told "It'll be a brave bugger that tackles you" referring to getting with me long-term. Here's to Him Indoors, Man of Courage.

Dawnless Sun,
Chapter 1
Seeing Red
Life as a vampire, couldn't have been more better, but still I have got my family around me and it feels nice to have a family like mine. I have finally gotten something to live for, fight for and to be honest love. I have made so many bad choices in my life, some of them were hurting the only person who really deserved to have a life filled with joy. That person is Jacob, he has been there since Edward moved away due to I was a little clumpsy and he stiched me back up. So today, I am going to get something for him to say that I am thankful to have you as a best friend still, even though I am a vampire and all.
So I was walking around the house to find the car keys to my farrerri that Edward had gotten me for my birthday 3 years ago, today is the 2nd time I have used it. Then all of a sudden Alice came along and said "Your going to the shops without me, arent you" in a sad voice. Then she sighed and walked one step towards to door and I felt a little guity with not asking her, after all she has got the gift to tell the future so she saw this was coming. I said "Would you like to go with me Alice, I am sorry for not asking, but it never came into mind" while I got into the car and Alice chimed her happy voice and said "Yes, I would like to go, but we have to take Renesmee, she needs a new wardrobe. Renesmee, we need you in the garage." She waited for Renesmee to come and then she was already in view. "What is it aunt Alice, are we going somewhere?" She asked and smiled and hugged Alice. "Yes we are and your to be getting a new wardrobe, the stuff that we bought has to go back, it is already in the trunck. So get in the car and don't forget to clip in your seat belt." she said and then I started the car and reversed the car and we were on our way out of the drive way and we were stopped by a vampire, it looked frightened and both Renesmee and Alice were screaming in agony, and Renesmee said "Mom, make it stop, it is hurting, it feels like i am being sawed in half" she screamed and I got out of the car, picked up the vampire by the neck and said "you better stop it, otherwise it is death for you. I mean it" Renesmee screamed and everyone was running to Renesmee's aid. Carlisle and Rosalie were his next victums, they dropped like a stone. Emmett and Esme tryed to get her out of the car but they ended up on the floor screaming and Edward and Jasper were the next one to try and it was sucessful. I snapped his head off and light it a light. Then all of a sudden, this girl looked at what I had done, she screamed and then lunged for me.
But before she got to me jasper and Edward had her pinned and I slapped her across the face, and asked "Who sent you" I said while grapped her hair and then I contiued "Answer me, otherwise I will kill you here and now" I finished in a pirceing voice. Then Carlisle patted me on the shoulder and said "Bella, you don't have to do this, think about on who you are, would you want Renesmee seeing you like this" he finished and then I sighed and then walked towards to the door and ran out the door. "Edward, go and calm Bella done, take Jasper with you. Alice, Emmett and Rosalie have got her. Go and see how she is" Esme said then all of a sudden, I heard Jasper and Emmett on my tail, I slowed down and then stopped. "Bella, no one blames you, you need to calm down." Edward said and Jasper was using his gift to manipulate my emotions to calm down and I was calm and peaceful.
To be continued......

The Nazi weapons appeared to utilise Uranium 233 harvested from particle accelerators as Protactinium 233. This device is often referred to as the Nazi Bell. It was a device developed under Dr Walter Dallenbach by the German Army Ordnance research team Forschungstelle D. Several such synchrotron type centrifuges were built by the Berlin firm BAMAG Meguin, under contract to C.H. Muller, at Dessau where Junkers also built aircraft engines. Special flights by Junkers Ju-290 aircraft carrying crates of aircraft engines are said to have occurred during 1944, flown by aircraft with civilian pilots and Deutsch Luft Hansa markings. Could these cargoes in fact have been carried duplicates of the Nazi particle accelerator, or plans for one's construction? Albert Speer in his memoirs wrote of a Ju-390 flight from Bardufoss Norway to Tokyo via the "Polar Route" in 1945, flown by civilian test pilots. Two wartime test pilots who flew the giant Junkers Ju-390 also referred after the war to the Ju-390′s Polar flight to Japan.[18] Conventional cyclotrons are extremely heavy equipment and unsuited to long range flights because of the extreme weight of their magnets. The German particle accelerator device for production of Uranium 233 described by Dr Rolf Wideroe however appears from descriptions to have been lighter than a conventional Cyclotron and more like a centrifugal synchrotron. Successful testing of Japan's A-bomb? An article appeared in World War II Magazine (July 1995) by Al Hemingway that indicates indeed, that Japan may have exploded an atomic bomb on a tiny islet in the Sea of Japan on August 12, 1945. Hemmingway refers to a test also involving a cave. David Snell reported that Kempetai Captain Tsetusuo Wakabayashi told him the test occured just after Hiroshima was bombed. Wilcox gives an account from Snell that on 10 August 1945 an Atomic bomb was removed from a cave above Konan, transported to a robot launch. It is reported that at dawn 12 August 1945 the launch carrying the A-bomb device called Genzai Bakudanbeached itself on a tiny island in the sea of Japan. The location of these islets is north of Wonsan in the Gulf of Yonghung-Man. Unfortunately the name of the individual island where the test occurred is not recorded. It is known that a Japanese plan for an Atomic Bomb was drawn up in July 1943 and came into possession of the OSS. These plans were rediscovered in 2002 and were returned to Japan where the Japanese government now controls them. [19] A US Army surgeon based in Japan in 1947 with the 237th Medical Disp. to examine after effects of Atomic Bombs on the victims, Leon Thompson wrote to the Millitary Magazine on 9 November 1996, claiming to have seen the Japanese bomb's blueprint in the OSS offices at Tokyo. At this time OSS was known as the SSU and was about to become the CIA. Radio operator of U-234 Wolfgang Hirschfeld also wrote in an account for the website Sharkhunters, in which he caimed that Japan had alreadysuccessfully tested an atomic bomb in 1943. Conceivably Hirschfeld may be wrong that there was a test in 1943, but it is also interesting to note he was somehow informed about Japan's nuclear project before leaving Germany implying some degree of co-operation between these countries during the War years. Capt. Wakabayashi asserted to Snell that bomb laboratories hidden in caves above Konan along with a number of completed Atomic weapons were demolished to prevent their capture. Soviet paratroops captured the city unexpectedly on 24 August 1945 whilst fighting was occurring much further north along Korea's coast. This sudden attack led to the capture of six key scientists responsible for F-NZ. A chemical engineer in the F-NZ project Otogoro Natsume agreed to work for his Soviets captors and in October 1946 used the trust gained to steal a small fishing boat and escape to American forces further south. Natsume was interrogated through an interpreter by the Americans. He had also heard of the nuclear test whilst at Konan before the Soviets arrived. Natsume revealed that decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide was part of the process involved in construction of the Atomic weapon implying that it had a thermonuclear aspect. He revealed that there were 700 university graduates working at two Factories for F-NZ. Three hundred of these graduates worked at Konan. One factory was at Konan, the other at Honbu. Natsume said Soviets arrived so quickly that they captured seven key scientists. Russians tortured the scientists by thrusting burning slivers under their fingertips and pouring water into their noses. One scientist managed to escape to the American zone but the others he learned were taken back to Moscow where they were tortured further for their secrets.[20] Japan's intended use of the Atomic Bomb Japan's biggest problem in 1945 was delivery systems. Twelve V-2 rockets had been imported by U-boat before the collapse of Nazi Germany.[21] The correct beach in Kyushu had been identified for the intended Allied invasion in 1946. It seems conceivable that underground lunch silos would have been prepared to fire these V-2 rockets at the Allied beach head and the fleet offshore. Had these been nuclear tipped an invasion of Japan could have been carnage. Bomber missions to mainland USA were a goal but as the war dragged into it's closing sequences this became less important. Japan was slow to grasp strategic bombing. The distances involved were immense. Honshu Island to Los Angeles was 4,720 nautical miles one way. Seattle was approximately 4,100nm. On the outbound trip a heavily laden bomber would have to climb to 30,000 feet to hitch a ride on Jetstreams and take advantage of higher ground speeds at altitude. The return journey however was against prevailing winds. The shortest possible route was from Paramushiro in the northern Kuril Group. During WW2 the island had four air bases, most with 4,000 ft runways. Had these heavily laden aircraft been able to take off from such runways then the distance to attack Seattle was an acceptable 3,040nm. It is rumored amongst Nazi veterans that the third Ju-390 prototype was not destroyed but rather completed and flown to Japan. The claim is completely unverifiable, but possible and such an aircraft would have permitted raids on cities along the western USA seaboard. Such an aircraft would have looked something like this:

The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs these days. Car aficionados appreciate the a brand you can trust built into each GMC, and understand that only the highest quality repair Sierra 1500 HD parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. Anyone who operates a GMC knows that when it comes to fixing their vehicle only the absolute best replacement parts will do. You bought your Sierra 1500 HD because its dependability and trusted quality struck a chord inside you; so why would you be okay with second rate when it comes to great quality auto parts?
One of the modern conveniences we have grown accustomed to is the ability to vary the speeds of your HVAC blower.. The small device that allows your heater to project air at different speeds is your heater blower resistor. Directly connected to your blower switch, your GMC Sierra 1500 HD blower motor resistor modulates the resistance applied to the circuit that handles the load of the blower motor. When you command your GMC Sierra 1500 HD heater to blow on "High", it lowers the resistance so that all the amperage reaches the blower. And when you switch to low, the heater blower motor resistor raises resistance so that less amperage reaches the blower motor.
Ordering new GMC parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement Sierra 1500 HD parts on the internet. Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make purchasing it easy. When your GMC needs the best replacement Blower Motor Regulator Resistor, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. All the GMC Sierra 1500 HD Blower Motor Regulator Resistor parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 2006, 2005, 2003, 2002, 2001. Choose your year below to refine your search.

No appetite in pregnancy
My Mom gave me the best advice while I was pregnant. She said to just eat for me and the baby would take what he needs. You don't have to eat for two, you just need to eat enough to be nourished. If you can only stomach soup or something light for a meal, that is good enough.
Jennifer, so true. The baby will get their nutrients one way or another. You have to keep up YOUR body's stores in order to stay healthy. This is why so many of us end up with issues after pregnancy like teeth issues and bone loss.
TOTALLY agree.. My Doctor always reminded me that one of the two people eat for.. is the size of a walnut.. or a peach... or cantaloupe.. so eating for two.. is really a myth.. it's a the nutrients not amount..
I developed gestational diabetes when I was pregnant. I had to see a dietitian every week. It was frustrating and I hated it. I just couldn't eat everything she wanted me to eat. I couldn't even eat half of those stupid meal plans. I just stopped going after appts and felt so much better. I ate so healthy when I was pregnant and aside from the God awful aches and pains, it was the best diet ever :)

Q. Are there any U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality regulations for dirt pits concerning air pollution and the amount of dust they are allowed to emit into the air? Also what are the laws concerning tracking mud onto the road?
A. Rodney Mallett, spokesman for the Department of Environmental Quality, said there are air regulations that limit fugitive dust emissions. For example, open-bodied trucks transporting materials that could give rise to airborne dust are supposed to be covered while in motion.
The state Department of Transportation and Development oversees the condition of roadways.
DOTD spokeswoman Lauren Lee said tracking mud onto a roadway falls under a prohibition against gross littering.
"Contractors must satisfactorily maintain the condition of the roadway," Lee said.
First-time violations are punishable by a minimum $500 fine.

Red Emperor Resources NL provides the following update with respect to the drilling of the Hawkeye-1 exploration well, offshore Palawan Basin in the Philippines.
The Hawkeye-1 exploration well was drilled to the planned total depth of 2,920m with the top reservoir intersected at 2,710m. Hydrocarbons were logged between 2,710m - 2,737m in reservoir of variable quality. The upper reservoir section between 2,710m - 2,724m is interpreted to be gas bearing at sub-commercial volumes.
The second, poorer quality reservoir (2,724m - 2,737m) provided evidence of fluorescence, usually an indicator of liquid hydrocarbons, from hand cutting returns. Unfortunately, even if confirmed oil bearing, the combination of poor reservoir and low net pay would render the potential oil leg sub-commercial. Below 2,737m water was inferred from log observations in a reservoir sequence of good quality.

Quitting is not the goal
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
With the turn of every new year, people always find a New Year's resolution to incorporate into their life to adjust something that may need work or bettering.
Last month, motivation was high and people were eating healthier, going to the gym three times a week trying to achieve the number one New Year's resolution: losing weight.
This is a great first step for anyone wanting to better their health and lifestyle by becoming more active and eating healthier; however, I think people tend to set themselves up for failure rather than success.
Yes, eating more veggies and running a bit more will result in a healthier lifestyle to an extent, but this new idea for someone's lifestyle does not contain any indication of lasting.
Everyone gets tired of doing the same thing day in and day out with no end goal.
If the thing that you are doing does not have any drive or hope behind it, it turns into a road with a dead-end.
I have witnessed many people who want to incorporate fitness into their life and better their bodies, usually falling short by quitting their unreasonable and dull plan.
Who wants to eat a bland, nasty kale smoothie and run on the treadmill for thirty minutes every day for no finish line? That is a recipe for failure.
Most people I have noticed who are new to the gym have this newbie state of mind that they are not supposed to be there at all and apparently think everyone else thinks the same.
I remember when I began working out at the gym regularly in 2013; I possessed these same feelings that working out was not allowed for me.
I had thought that I did not belong in this iron jungle, and that becoming physically fit through weight training and cardio was absurd.
What was really going on was that I felt like I needed the other people's acceptance to permit me being there.
I realized that my gym membership was mine and mine alone, that it was my key to a better life. I did not need anyone else's permission to become the best me I could be physically.
Now, four years later, I see these newcomers at the gym and I see that they have fallen into this falsehood that shadows their every move.
They feel everyone is watching them, judging them, mocking their attendance.
The real underlying issue, being overweight or frail, is insecurity creating their own personal hell of the place.
My advice for those individuals who would like to escape this misconception is to exhibit confidence when in the gym.
Literally, pretend that you know what you are doing, and that this dreaded place is like any other place that you belong in.
Set a reasonable and achievable short term goal and stick to it.
Losing fifty pounds is an arbitrary amount and sounds very difficult to achieve.
However, setting a goal to lose three pounds this month is more achievable.
After completing this small goal, then move onto the next small goal, and in time you will have achieved so many.
Also, eliminate the negative aspects that you are supplying in your head and focus more on your goals.
Getting caught up in the false thoughts and opinions of everyone else in the gym will drive you to quit and keep you from achieving your goals.
You can become the better you that you have always wanted to be. The gym is just a place where people go to better themselves. Be a part of it.

In the Shadow War, the PMCs fight to take control of all contracts. The Contracts are awarded or taken if certain requirements are fulfilled. As a player, earning/losing contracts isn't such a big deal, but you may want to fight for as many to make you PMC stand above the others.
How to gain new ContractsEdit
Each game mode (Sabotage, Acquisition, Domination, Interdiction)has its own set of 3 contracts from the major alliances, ETO originally for Raven, SIRSAT for S.V.E.R and UC for Valor. As you win games for your faction, the overall score bar for your PMC in the game mode increases a little. The overall score bar is next to the contract display at the bottom right of your screen. When the bar for any faction reaches the top, The Faction in first takes the contract of the faction in last. The Faction in second keeps their own contract.
After all this, the bars reset and it repeats.
Contract RestrictionsEdit
A lot of the time you will see in one game mode that a PMC has 2 contracts, but never all 3. In MAG, a PMC is not allowed to secure all 3 contracts at any given time. So, for example, if the Raven comes last and has 1 contract and SVER comes 1st holding 2 contracts, when S.V.E.R. fills the bar, S.V.E.R. gives Valor their contract back and takes Raven's
A contract rewards your PMC with bonus boosts. These are fairly minimal and are different for each game type.
Sabotage: +5% bonus exp (additional +5% bonus Exp if 2 contracts are held)
Acquisition: +5% leadership bonus range (additional +5% leadership bonus range if 2 contracts are held)
Interdiction: -5% tactical strike cooldown time (additional -5% tactical strike cooldown time if 2 contracts are held)
Domination: -5% strategic maneuvre cooldown time (additional -5% strategic maneuvre cooldown time if 2 contracts are held)

What to Consider
To demonstrate that they are managing an event well and have sufficient plans in place, Event Organisers will be required to submit a site plan together with their Event Management Plan (EMP) and Traffic Management Plan (TMP).
The nature and complexity of EMP/TMPs depends on the type and scale of an event. At a smaller event, a Traffic Management Plan might be incorporated into the Event Management Plan or at a larger event where more detail required, kept separate.
Both plans are working documents that may be revised several times. It is therefore important to ensure that they are indexed.
Event Management Plan
May include the following:
Event Safety Policy Statement
- Safety Statement
- Overall Management
- Levels of responsibility
Risk Assessments
Risk assessments and the arrangements that are to be put into place as a result of the risk assessments. These arrangements provide the body of the plan and may include the following:
Details of the event
- Venue and site design
- Structures and Barriers
- Structual Safety calculations & drawings
- Fuel use and storage
- Electrical installations and Lighting
- Audience profile and capacity

Where there are events being held on different sites, it is worth considering and overall Event Management Plan and separate site specific plans.
Traffic Management Plan
A traffic management plan (TMP) is one part of the overall event management plan (EMP). It also has key links to the risk assessments as key traffic risks and actions identified in the TMP should also be highlighted in the risk assessment.
The key, specific areas any TMP should cover are as follows;
- The sign schedule.
- Details of all roads to be closed and signed diversion routes.
- Details of any temporary traffic regulation orders made. Event organisers should contact the local District Council to discuss Orders for control measures such as temporary speed limits, lifting of parking restrictions, temporary one-way systems etc.
- Details of expected numbers of attendees and estimated number of vehicles arriving.
- Details of contingencies for adverse weather.
- Details of any arrangements made with Hampshire County Council regarding the control of permanent traffic lights.
- Details of event parking. Enough parking should be provided. If this is not possible then the event promoter must consider additional support to prevent illegal parking.
- Details of consultations and traffic related agreements made, particularly with regard to the emergency services and local residents / businesses and bus services.
- Details of emergency access routes agreed with fire, police and ambulance services, together with details of how this route will be kept open.
- Details of traffic related agreements with bus companies in order to accommodate or divert their services.
- Details of advertising for the event, particularly with regard to advertised routes for attendees. Event promoters should consider the opportunities to maximise the use of public transport to their event to minimise vehicular traffic.
- Details of any ticket / entry fee collections. Tickets and entry fees should not be collected at entry points off of the public highway as this tends to cause unnecessary queuing.
- Traffic related lessons learned from previous events.
- Details of special considerations needed for vulnerable groups or those with disabilities.
- Contact details for the person responsible for traffic management at the event.
- Contact details for other relevant organisations involved in traffic management at the event.
Visit Hampshire County Council's website for guidance on Traffic Management.
If you are planning an event, you might like to make use of the network of community buses around the District which can provide low cost transport for groups. There is more information on the community bus network on Hampshire County Council's Community Transport pages, or you can go direct to the co-ordinators for buses in the Winchester District. This can reduce the number of cars coming to your event, and also provide transport for those who might otherwise find it hard to get to your event.

Before Blake; before the Seven; before the rebellion began...
The Liberator – a mysterious alien starship controlled by a synthetic intelligence known only as Zen. A derelict rescued from the brink of destruction by Roj Blake and his band of dissidents, the ship is their weapon in the war against the corrupt Federation, its origin unknown – until now. What terrible catastrophe left the Liberator drifting and shattered? What drove the ship's computer to murder its original crew? What dark secrets lie at the heart of this alien machine? For one woman, a pilot in the service of the all-powerful System, these questions will be answered in a desperate search for her own identity... a search that can only end in betrayal and death.

The Minnesota Falls dam near Granite Falls is on its last legs, as owner Xcel Energy ignores citizen concerns and has decided to close the 107-year-old dam.
The state's largest utility is awaiting a final permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers but still hopes to have the dam demolished this year.
Since the dam, which once held a hydro generation system that was dismantled in 1961, no longer serves a purposed for Xcel, the company would rather pay the $2 million to remove it as opposed to $6 million to repair it, Jim Bodensteiner, Xcel senior environmental analyst and scientist, told the West Central Tribune.
Citizens, though, are concerned about the impact upstream, as water levels would likely fall. They're already at a 20 year low because of the drought, the paper reported.
Paul Bunyan is getting a facelift. The Brainerd Lakes Area Welcome Center unveiled a new paint job on its iconic tourist attraction Monday.
"Paul's finish was faded and worn from years of sun exposure and thousands of climbers," artist Josh Porter told the Brainerd Dispatch. "I enjoyed bringing back brightness and color to the sculpture. Paul is ready for another round of visitors and photographs."

Asset Allocation Road Map: US Equities
Before getting to my outlook for US equities, I feel that I first must explain why my methodology did not anticipate this monstrous move off the March, 2009 bottom.
In short, the explanation is that I don't have an explanation. Now I could consider this a failure of my methodology or the tools that I use to navigate the markets, but I don't. To understand why I feel this way, I will take you on a quick review of the past 6 months.
On March, 2009, I wrote the following:
"So here we are with the "smart money" bullish and the "dumb money" bearish. Beautiful! According to the back testing process, the optimal time to buy would be after this Friday's close.
Lastly, if equities do rally, I believe this will be a counter trend rally within an ongoing bear market. This will not be "the bottom", and it is my belief that "the bottom" will take time (i.e., many more months) to develop."
I was in at the bottom, but little did I know at the time that the S&P500 would embark on a 50% rally! As many of you may remember, I kept saying that this was a bear market rally and that this was not the launching pad for a new bull market. Now after a 50% rally in the S&P500, the best I can do is state that this is a cyclical bull run in an ongoing secular bear. I will be right, but once again, I did not anticipate the last 20% of this rally.
I was basing my observations on the fact that the "next big thing" indicator, which is a tool that I use to identify those technical conditions seen at market bottoms prior to secular trend changes, had not gotten into the correct position, and it would be unlikely to do so for a long while. Furthermore, a strong snapback rally was expected as sentiment had gotten very bearish (i.e., bull signal), and prices were very oversold by all known metrics, but bear markets rarely end in a "V" shaped bounce. Typically, there is a basing period before secular trends reverse.
Towards the end of April, I was tightening up stops and looking to sell strength. Bear market rallies, generally move a certain period of time (weeks on x axis) and distance (percent gains on y axis), and this one did not appear any different. So you get out while the getting is good. The market did not rollover and in fact, the S&P500 traded higher than I had expected, which was based upon similar situations in the past. Maybe this was a sign: when the market doesn't behave as you expect, you should take notice.
Although my "call" to sell strength at the end of April wasn't looking good in the first parts of May, by the early parts of July, the S&P500 was actually trading back at the levels seen on May 1. My "call" was looking a lot better as the S&P500 hadn't gone anywhere for 10 weeks. Yes, the S&P500 had managed to get over the falling simple 10 month moving average by the end of June, but even this positive sign was looking like a failed signal. As we all know, the market took off from this point as the "this time is different" scenario unfolded. Like all good rallies, it started with short covering and has gone on further than most anticipated. What was looking like an extraordinary bear market rally that was rolling over in early July - or maybe just a normal bounce back given how far prices were oversold- turned into a bullish stampede and trampling of the bears as the S&P500 moved 18% higher over the last 7 weeks.
So that brings us to today. Our bear market rally has turned into something more, and one of the key tools that I use to navigate the markets (i.e., the "next big thing" indicator) appears to have failed to identify this important turn for the better in the markets. Or has it?
I say "appears" because I still could be correct; in this environment, we could just as easily find ourselves at new lows or new yearly highs within 6 months time. Either way, I would not be surprised. I say "appears" because the indicator did work well in identifying several key sectors and the Russell 2000 index that have been market leaders over the past 6 months. So I am not ready to throw the "next big thing" indicator in the junk pile, and in fact, I still think it has great validity that is supported by the data across multiple market eras and many different asset classes.
So what went wrong? Honestly, I am not sure. The idea behind the "next big thing" indicator is that it assesses not only how far prices have dropped but how long investors have been underwater. We are looking at the y axis as much as the x axis. The price drop in the S&P500 was rather significant yet it occurred over a relatively short time period. The time component really has not been there, and that still leaves the notion on the table that this very "V" shaped rally may rollover. In other words, what we are really witnessing is a very strong bear market rally or the indicator was not sensitive enough to pick up the potential for this market move. Be that as it may, what we call it or how we react are really two different things.
So what do I see for equities going forward? On a purely price basis alone, the equity markets have bottomed. Now that may sound like a stupid statement after a 50% move, but the price evidence is there to suggest that March, 2009 was an important market bottom. What is the evidence? If we look at figure 1, which is a weekly price chart of the S&P500, we note the blue up arrows. It was at this point that we had a weekly close over 3 pivot low points, and looking at over 50 years of S&P500 data, this kind of price action has tended to define bear market bottoms leading to secular trend changes. Conversely, a close below 3 pivots (like we have seen in the Dollar Index) is another good measure of a market top.
Figure 1. S&P500/ weekly
In any case, even within the confines of a bull market, the price cycle -or that cycle of fear and greed that the "Dumb Money" indicator attempts to quantify - will exert itself. Although I don't know when, I am pretty sure at some point in the future that there will be a buying opportunity where investors turn bearish (i.e., bull signal). If following that signal the markets do not achieve new highs for this price cycle or trade below the levels seen at the time of the signal, then there is a high likelihood of prices trading much lower.
Think about it this way: with the S&P500 so far above its 200 day moving average, it is unlikely that the market will rollover without this key metric being defended. We will get a sell off, sentiment should turn bearish (i.e., bull signal), and we will get a bounce. The nature of that multi -week bounce will be the tell.
The bigger question remains and it is the question we can only answer with the passage of time: Will the events of the past 6 months be seen as a new secular bull market or a cyclical bull market within an ongoing secular bear market?
In sum, March, 2009 was an important bottom for equities that was not expected by my methodology. The nature of the price action and the extent of the rally would suggest a prolong period of time before the market rolls over. This is not meant to be a prediction that the market will roll over, but to suggest that the markets will need to go though the normal price cycle, which is dictated by fear and greed, before rolling over. This will take time to manifest itself.
In the next installment of this series, I will discuss why I like commodities over equities and Treasury bonds.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- You know it's a classic when fans of the losing team give a standing ovation at the end of it.
Few people who were in FedEx Forum on Monday will forget it anytime soon. One can safely say Game 4 of the Grizzlies-Thunder series will become a staple of future NBA TV daytime programming, after the two sides slogged through three overtimes, two miraculous game-tying 3-pointers, and three missed buzzer-beaters for the win before Oklahoma City finally won the war of attrition 133-123.
We can also safely call this series "evenly matched." Through four games and four overtimes, we're tied at two games apiece with a composite score of 440-438. Each side has stolen a win on the other's home court, and each has stormed back from a huge deficit to win -- with Oklahoma City's rally from 18 down Monday offsetting Memphis' comeback from a 16-point deficit two days earlier.
Memphis also came back from a double-digit deficit in this one, trailing by 10 with five minutes left before rallying to tie it on Mike Conley's 3-pointer. Even more improbably, the Griz tied it at the end of the first overtime on a wild fling by backup point guard Greivis Vasquez, after 3-point options A and B, Conley and O.J. Mayo, had both fouled out.
"We had the game won a few times," said Thunder coach Scott Brooks. "They made some incredible shots."
At that point it seemed the Grizzlies' Cinderella story was adding one more improbable chapter, but as Monday rolled into Tuesday and the game dragged on, the advantage tilted to the younger legs of the Thunder. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook played 108 minutes between them but hardly seemed worse for the wear. Durant scored six points in the final OT to put the game away; in the second OT, Westbrook scored seven and assisted on a crucial James Harden 3 to keep Oklahoma City afloat.
Memphis' Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph, meanwhile, labored after playing 57 and 56 minutes, respectively. The defining moment came when Gasol tried to elevate for a jump hook in the third OT but had nothing left in the tank and barely got off the floor; his shot was easily spiked by Serge Ibaka. Memphis' two frontcourt stalwarts missed their final six shots combined.
"It became a matter of just not having enough bullets," said Memphis coach Lionel Hollins.
The war of attrition went deeper than those two. Losing Conley deprived the Grizzlies of their main pick-and-roll creator, but even worse was unnecessarily losing Mayo at the end of the first overtime. With Memphis down one and playing defense with 19.9 seconds left, Hollins subbed in Mayo after Conley had picked up his sixth foul.
Hollins said he told Mayo not to foul, but Mayo did anyway. In hindsight, obviously, a more effective strategy would have been to insert Vasquez or Sam Young instead of Mayo when Conley fouled out. It seemed the Griz might survive the gaffe when Vasquez dribbled across the top of the key and hit a contested, lunging triple to tie the game, but eventually it came back to bite them.
It might never have gotten to that point if not for an earlier astute adjustment by Brooks. One game after Hollins had made all the right moves in the Grizzlies' comeback win, it was Brooks' turn to shine. In particular, his decision to go small in the second quarter helped turn around a game that looked like a Memphis blowout early.
The Grizzlies built up an 18-point lead by combining punishing, physical defense with heavy doses of Gasol and Randolph. After scoring only 19 points in the final 20 minutes of Game 3, Oklahoma City generated only 18 in the first 15 minutes of Game 4.
At that point, Brooks inserted Kevin Durant as his power forward and played Westbrook, James Harden and Daequan Cook on the perimeter. The unit took the court trailing by 17 and briefly fell behind by 18, but by halftime they had cut the deficit to just four points.
The unit produced added benefits when the Grizzlies had trouble fielding an effective lineup against it due to foul trouble. Once Conley, Mayo and Shane Battier all had picked up three fouls and Hollins didn't want to risk a third on Tony Allen, Memphis even turned to little-used Ishmael Smith.
It also marked one of the first times the Thunder had dictated the matchups, and while it didn't work quite as well in the fourth quarter against the Grizzlies' starters, it afforded Oklahoma City a series-saving advantage in the second quarter against the Memphis bench. One presumes the Thunder will go back to the well in the second quarter of Game 5 unless the Grizzlies can adjust.
As for Memphis, it faces a difficult road ahead on two fronts. First, the Thunder have reclaimed home-court advantage, and with it, historically, a better than 75 percent chance of advancing to the conference finals against Dallas.
But the Grizzlies' greater concern isn't distant history but the immediate history. Having played Gasol 57 minutes and Randolph 56 in Game 4, they risk being dead-legged on Wednesday night and will need a heavy contribution from a bench unit that has been badly outplayed in the two Thunder wins. In particular, top frontcourt reserve Darrell Arthur will have to step up after a near-invisible performance Monday.
The game featured four great individual performances that warrant special mention -- Gasol had 26 points and 21 rebounds and Randolph had 34 and 16 for Memphis, while Durant (35 and 13) and Westbrook (40 points) were equally brilliant for Oklahoma City. And we should give special mention to the free throw shooting. Memphis was a spectacular 37-of-40 at the stripe, and while the Thunder were hurt by two late misses from Kendrick Perkins, overall they hit 42-of-50.
As per usual, the Thunder had more quality and the Grizzlies more quantity. Memphis shot just 36 percent but stayed in it, as ever, by outworking the Thunder for more possessions. Memphis had a plus-7 advantage in offensive rebounds and turnovers for the game, and is now plus-31 for the series.
But despite that advantage and a pair of miraculous shots, the Thunder have reclaimed the advantage by the narrowest of margins in the quest to join Dallas in the Western Conference finals. Given how slim the margin has been between these two teams, one suspects we won't know the Mavs' opponent until Sunday.

When director Joe Carnahan, the man who brought you the incredible nihilistic survival thriller The Grey, was supposedly going to tackle the Daredevil reboot, we paid serious attention. We had no idea that his plans for The Man Without Fear were so striking, so violent, and so… retro. But the badass sizzle reel you're about to see comes at a price: Carnahan has only released the footage (culled mostly from genre classics like The Warriors, iconic panels from the comic book and some carefully chosen shots from Mark Steven Johnson's Daredevil) because he's not getting the gig after all.
First Joe Carnahan tweeted, "Think my idea for a certain retro, red-suited, Serpico-styled superhero went up in smoke today kids." Then, "We shall see. Time is NOT on anyone's side." It sounded depressing, but we weren't sure until just a few hours ago, when he finally announced, again via Twitter, "Guys. To clarify. DD pitch was tremendous and everyone flipped for it. The clock ticked down at Fox, that's why it went tits up."
"The clock ticked down" part seems to indicate that Fox has decided, in the end, to let the rights to Daredevil slip away, back into the hands of Marvel Studios. Presumably this also means that Fox is keeping the rights to Galactus and The Silver Surfer, despite some speculation that they might trade the two intergalactic characters in order to hang onto Matt Murdock a little longer. Good news for The Fantastic Four, bad news for Joe Carnahan… unless of course Marvel decides to hand him the reins once more. Then again, it seems unlikely that they would let him continue making this particular version: set in 1973, ultra-violent, even declared "NC-17" by Carnahan himself.
We like it, personally. A street-level hero like Daredevil can work in an isolated universe, particularly if portrayed with a darkness uncharacteristic to most superhero movies. And the idea of a period superhero film is long past its time.
We'll stop yammering. What do you think of Joe Carnahan's Daredevil, anyway? Do you think he really could have got De Niro to play The Kingpin?
CraveOnline will be back with more Daredevil news after we figure where every single shot of this sizzle reel came from.

Nobody buys an X5R, keeps its for 2 months, then comes out with a BS story that it didn't arrive in time (back then) so its never been used and you only just got around to listing it because you like things to devalue in front of your eyes. Only an IDIOT would believe you've taken two months to list an item, knowing full well it becomes a harder sell in relation to your story. You used it, didn't crash it, noticed it didn't have a mark on it and put the labels back on it and are trying your luck on finding an over paying idiot who'll buy your deluded lies.

Your search for "HIST1H2BK" returned 42 siRNAs
histone cluster 1, H2bk
Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This gene encodes a replication-dependent histone that is a member of the histone H2B family. The protein encoded is an antimicrobial protein with antibacterial and antifungal activity. Two transcripts that encode the same protein have been identified for this gene, which is found in the histone microcluster on chromosome 6p21.33. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
