The Sunrise Run
My name is Jonathan Young and from July 12-26, 2009, I ran the Sunrise Trail, from Auld's Cove to Amherst in Nova Scotia, Canada, to raise funds for The Palliative Care Program in Pictou County. I ran for twelve days, at distances of approximately 22-24km each day and completed the trail.
You may be asking yourself how and why I came up with this idea, to run the approximately 300 km Sunrise Trail in two weeks, to raise funds for the Palliative Care Program.
Jill Young:
"In 2007 our mother, Sharon, was diagnosed with lung cancer that later metastisized to her brain.While the shock of the metastises set it, we met with Dr Farrell at the palliative care unit of the Aberdeen Hospital. Mum was admitted to the Palliative Care Unit for pain management and released 4 days later. Mum was then put on the Palliative Care Program list, which means that she was able to receive nursing visits from the Pictou County VON and receive home, personal and respite care from the Certified Care Assistants, who also work for the VON.
The nursing visits were daily, to assess Mum's pain levels (she was very fortunate not to ever have had much pain), take her vital signs, make note of any physical/mental changes that she was experiencing and generally assess her overall well being and condition. Mum, having lived and worked in Pictou County her whole life, knew the majority of nurses and care workers who came to see her and while she was very aware of the seriousness of her condition, she treated these visits like social occasions, chatting and sharing news and jokes with all who came through the door.
The attitude of positivity, caring and professionalism with which the VON perform these vitally important services is admirable. The help we received from the VON under the Palliative Care Program was essential, as it allowed us to look after our mother in her own home, which she loved, for as long as was possible. As many of you know, caring for someone who is terminally ill is extremely rewarding but exhausting, both mentally and physically. Even though Mum was an exceptional case and was able to remain positive and as active as she could right until the end of her life, knowing that we could rely on the VON/Palliative Care Program for support was vital.
When Mum's condition deteriorated last July, she was once again admitted to the Palliative Care Unit, but this time she would not be coming home. It was because she had had such a positive experience in the unit earlier in the year that she knew it was where she had to be and she was not afraid to be going. In fact, she asked to go. She was admitted on a Sunday night and my brother and I spent the next week with her at the hospital. The unit itself is amazing and we are so fortunate to have a facility of this quality in Pictou County. It is designed for the families' comfort as well as the patients'. Families are able to stay with their loved one day and night, can make their meals there and there are even CD players in the room, so music can be played to comfort the patient and the family. Dr Farrell, his staff and the volunteers on the unit are incredible. The respect and care that the patients and their families are given during this most difficult process is inspiring.
My brother and I are most grateful for the care that our mother received and that is why we want to give back to the people and program that helped our family during the most trying period of our lives. We want to raise funds for the Palliative Care Program as we know that there are many other families in the County that could and do benefit from these wonderful services.
Mum said 'If I ever get out of this (meaning her illness), I'm going to come and volunteer on this floor, these people are amazing'. Through this fundraising effort, we can all show our gratitude, Mum's included. "

Slide 5 of 8
5. "Thou Shalt Not" (2001)
With music and lyrics by Harry Connick, Jr., "Thou Shalt Not" seemed like it had potential. But from the get-go, bad luck plagued this show. First, its previews started shortly after September 11, which might have been okay, had the show not featured a musical number in a morgue. Then, on opening night, principal actor Craig Bierko was hit in the larynx during a fight scene, sending him on vocal rest for two and a half weeks. Shortly after his return, principal Kate Levering sprained her ankle. The show closed on Jan. 6, 2002, after 85 performances.

Simulink Model Based Image Segmentation
This paper presents an efficient architecture for Image Segmentation. This architecture offers an alternative through a Graphical User Interface tool MATLAB. Image segmentation can be obtained by using various methods, but the drawback of most of the methods is that they use a high level language for coding. This paper focuses on processing an image pixel by pixel and in modification of pixel neighbourhoods that can be applied to the whole image. The objective lead to the use of a tool with a high-level graphical interface under the Matlab Simulink based blocks which makes it very easy to handle with respect to other software.

Japanese investors face land, infra hurdles in India
Complex riders to land acquisition and lack of adequate physical infrastructure are among the major issues Japanese companies face in expanding their India operations or setting up new projects in the country, according to a study by the Confederation of Indian Industry and KPMG.
The report, to be released in Japan at the India-Japan Business Summit on the completion of 60 years of diplomatic relations, has termed infrastructure as the biggest bottleneck that has threatened the sustainability of India's economic growth.
"Significant deficits exist in most of the segments of infrastructure," the study said.

Japanese investors face land, infra hurdles in India
The two-day summit that begins on Wednesday, will be attended by Indian business representing various sectors.
India plans to improve its infrastructure and targets $1 trillion investment during the 12th five-year Plan that began this financial year, half of the likely investment is expected to come from the private sector.
The findings of the study came just a few days after a parliamentary standing committee said the government shouldn't acquire land for private industries and public-private partnership projects, a move that drew flak from the industry.

Japanese investors face land, infra hurdles in India
The issue of retrospective amendments to the Income Tax Act, a major issue whenever a delegation went to the United States or Europe, is not the case with Japan.
CII director general Chandrajit Banerjee told Business Standard, "This (the retrospective amendments) was not the primary issue that came up in the preliminary discussions with Japanese investors, held prior to the delegation visit."
The high-level delegation from India, led by CII President Adi Godrej, includes Vikram Kirloskar, vice-chairman of Toyota Kirloskar; Deepak Puri, CMD Moser Baer India; Arun Sawhney, CEO and MD of Ranbaxy Lab; T V Kamalak-annan, president, TCS; Avinash Vashistha, chairman and MD of Accenture India and Shardul Shroff, managing partner, Amarchand Mangaldas. Union minister for urban development, Kamal Nath, will accompany the delegation.

Banerjee said while the industry expected to strike some deals during the visit to Japan this week, some like IT-major Infosys are already in the process of making investments in Japan.
TCS is also looking forward to exploring opportunities in Japan, he said.
Industry will also explore learning from Japanese competitiveness and excellence in manufacturing, Banerjee said.
Under the Visionary Leaders for Manufacturing Programme between the two countries, over 300 potential CEOs in India have been trained by Padma Shri Shoji Shiba.

The report is optimistic on the outcome of the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement signed between India and Japan early last year.
Despite slow growth in Japan and low business confidence, Banerjee said it was a good time to go to Japan.
"One of the things that we need to understand is how to utilise the CEPA the most to our benefit," he added.
After CEPA, Japan has agreed to provide greater access for contractual suppliers, professionals such as accountants, researchers, tourist guides and management consultants who will now be able to provide their services in Japan, CII said in a note.

Banerjee said Japan has vast opportunities in information technology services, life-sciences and pharmaceuticals in Japan.
The delegation would also explore opportunities for the Indian FMCG sector in Japan as the Indian FMCG players are optimistic that Japan would allow them some space soon, he said.
Under a current law in Japan, small and medium retailers are protected from the onslaught of large organised retail.
Bilateral trade stood at $13.8 billion in 2010-11, with the balance of trade in favour of Japan.

A judge decided Monday to allow a man classified by the state as a sexually violent predator to live in a house in the East County community of Jacumba after he is released from a state hospital.
Mikel Marshall is expected to be at the site — a 14-acre parcel at 42920 Desert Rose Ranch Road near Old Highway 80 — on or before Feb. 10. He will first have to agree to a long list of conditions, including wearing a GPS monitoring device.
As required by law, San Diego Superior Court Judge Howard Shore held a public hearing last month, during which he listened to comments from Jacumba residents who said they did not want Marshall living in their community.
The judge postponed making a final decision, saying he wanted to visit the property and ask other questions of state authorities. On Monday, Shore said he'd had an extensive tour of the interior and exterior of the site.
"I'm pleading with you not to put this man where my children play," said Merritt Wyeth, a Jacumba resident and mother of three who lives near the house.
"This is not all right," she said in the courtroom.
Shore acknowledged that he had a tough decision to make and that no matter what he decided, some people would be unhappy. But he said he could not decide the matter based on his feelings as a parent.
Instead, he had to follow the law.
The judge said the only way he could reject the proposal for Marshall would be to find a specific factor that made the site inconsistent with the state's goal of reintegrating such predators into society. State law allows sexually violent predators to be released from the hospital if they no longer pose a danger.
"Being uncomfortable and not wanting him there is not the same thing as being in danger," Shore said. "I have no basis on which to reject the proposed placement."
The judge said he also looked into placing Marshall in a trailer outside Donovan state prison in Otay Mesa, as had been done previously with two other sexually violent predators. None live on that property now.
The judge said he was told by the Department of State Hospitals that neither the piece of land outside the prison nor the trailer were options. The trailer is too dilapidated and the site is too isolated.
Marshall, 39, was convicted of molesting four North County boys in the early 1990s. He spent 14 years in prison before he was determined to fit the predator criteria, as defined by state law, and committed involuntarily to a state hospital.
There, he spent years participating in a program aimed at getting sex offenders to recognize their individual triggers for criminal behavior and work against them.
On Aug. 5, Shore determined that Marshall could be released into the community safely if he continued treatment on an outpatient basis and lived under heavy supervision.

Profile: I am so happy for this website. I have had dogs and cats my whole life, but became allergic to cats in my 20's. My severe allergies kept me from a career in Vet Medicine. Dog's are the one animal that I don't seem to have a problem with. My allergist can't explain it. I don't let my allergies stop me from volunteering once a week with therapy horses at a local farm. I load up on the allergy meds and go see my favorite horse J.J. and all his friends and work with children and adults with Autism and head injuries. What a reward I'm given to work with such special human's and such giving gentle creatures as J.J. Ginger & Molly are our precious girls that make everything great!!!

Ginger is an Australian Shepard/ Black Lab/ Bassett Hound. She will be 10y.o. this September. Her first 18 months of life did not have much love and caring in them, then my friend Suzi saved her from her neglectful home and called me crying asking if she knew of someone who would be able to take Ginger. Suzi had Ginger's sister Abby, but Abby was alpha female and not very nice to sweet Ginger. My boyfriend took her in and she has a great life on 18 acres in Maine to explore. She is also very close to her grandparents who she decided years ago that Granny is to feed her and when Grampie is not working she follows him around all day. One day Grampie was fixing a steel roof and the pollen made it too slippery to get down. Ginger came down to where her daddy was working and made him follow her to help get Grampie down. She is our smart girl. After Granny & Grampie have had dinner it is time to go home to Mommy, Daddy, her human brother & Canine Sister Molly. The only things that fear Ginger are the squirrels, moles and chipmunks.View Profile
Molly Mae is a Beagle/German Shepard/Black & Tan Coonhound Mix. That hound nose is nothing but trouble!!! We got Molly when she was 10 weeks old. I had wanted a beagle mix for a long time. "What was I thinking?!" When she is not exploring the 18 acres of land we have in Maine she is the most cuddley little girl. When she is content and snuggling she snorts like a pig. Her canine sister Ginger taught her how to go down to Granny's to get fed and loved and spoiled. Grampie calls her Mollykins. You will see in one picture she is cuddling up to a Doberman/Rottie Mix that was her Uncle Worf who passed away a couple of years ago. She drove him crazy, but he loved her so very much. She also misses her oldest human brother since he went off to college, but still has one more human brother home for another year. Her Grammie & Poppa live in the next town over and when she sees them she can barely walk because her tail and tush get wiggling so hard. Poppa calls her his granddogger. She turned five y.o. this mother's day. She is afraid of little dogs, but this past fall she chased a young moose out of our field and into the woods with me screaming noooo behind her. She is definatly a good ole' Maine gal.View Profile

Run down the runway at Austin Straubel
GREEN BAY - Normally planes take off on a runway, but coming this fall, you'll be able to run on the runway.
It's all part of the first Prevea 5K GRB Run/Walk.
The event will take place September 13th at Austin Straubel International Airport.
The course will start on one of the airport's two main runways, which will be closed during the event.
Participants would also use a perimeter road and finish by going through a gauntlet of parked planes.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Wounded Warrior Project.
Sean Ryan, the race director, says, "I knew that this event had the opportunity to be a huge homerun, not just for the Wounded Warrior Project but also for the community and the timing of having it on a fall weekend on the eve of our Packers home opener makes it a homerun by any stretch."
The cost of the race is $25 for adults and $15 for kids.
Runners will receive a t-shirt, runners' wings and medals for different age groups.

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino keen to switch attention back to the Premier League: 'The competition never stops'
Tottenham booked their place in the last 16v of the Europa League with a convincing victory at home to Fiorentina.
The north Londoners were 4-1 winners on aggregate, with Ryan Mason, Erik Lamela and a fortunate own goal handing them a 3-0 scoreline at White Hart Lane on Thursday, days after being knocked out of the FA Cup by Crystal Palace.
Boss Mauricio Pochettino paid tribute to his side's display, but has quickly turned his focus back on their Premier League title tilt and Sunday's clash with struggling Swansea.
The 43-year-old told BT Sport/ESPN: "I'm very pleased, we showed character and played very well against a team that play very well.
"We fully deserve the result, happy, I'm very pleased with the performance.
"Now we need to recover because the competition never stops and we need to be ready for the next game because that is on Sunday against Swansea.
"I think we have a big motivation in the Premier League and now we have two competitions. We are in a good position in the table, I think the motivation is fantastic."
Pochettino is disappointed star man Alli will be missing for the first leg of their next fixture in the competition, believing his caution was harsh.
However, the Argentinian paid tribute to the young midfielder's more mature performances against Crystal Palace and Fiorentina, after receiving much criticism for an apparent kick on Viola defender Nenad Tomovic in last week's first leg.
"For me it wasn't a yellow card," he said.

At the login screen of a Windows 2000 or XP you are given the option (if the computer belongs to a Windows domain) of performing user authentication either locally or through the domain controller of the domain. This does not mean you log into computer B from computer A, it means you're logging into computer A in any case, but you'll eventually get added benefits from a domain logon such as a roaming profile giving you the same working environment whatever computer you chose to work on. The small network I manage at my workplace works like this. All users must log on to the domain (through a debian/samba pdc) which gives them the same profile whatever machine they use, and keeps things conveniently centralized on the debian machine for ease of administration. -- Carlos Sousa http://vbc.dyndns.org/

PA Police Stop Shooting on Gilo
Palestinian policemen in Bethlehem on Tuesday prevented a group of armed youths from firing at the Jerusalem neighborhood of Gilo. The incident was reported to Ha'aretz by a resident of Beit Jala.
The man said that the youths, apparently members of Fatah, had assembled close to the Orthodox club, but had been surprised by several policemen who were in the vicinity and immediately told them to disperse.
The number of Palestinian policemen in the streets of Bethlehem and the surrounding villages has been growing daily over the past week since IDF troops withdrew from the city.
This is in keeping with Palestinian assessments that despite disappointment at Israel's decision to freeze the "Gaza-and-Bethelehem-First" plan, the Palestinian Authority and its interior minister, Palestinian Authority Interior Minister Abdel Razek Yehiyeh, were determined to stand by their commitments.
In the Gaza Strip, Palestinian policemen are now manning positions destroyed by the IDF over the past two years, particularly on roads leading to settlements and army bases. Palestinian drivers complained Wednesday that they now have to stop and undergo two checks, first at a Palestinian roadblock and then at an Israeli one.
Opposition sources blamed the PA for keeping its promises to Israel while Israel was not upholding the terms of the understandings. According to Palestinian security sources, however, the new deployment is required for internal Palestinian needs.
Ben-Eliezer delays Yehiyeh meetingCiting ongoing violence in the Gaza Strip, Defense Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer announced Wednesday morning that he was postponing his meeting with Yehiyeh, which had been scheduled for later in the day in Tel Aviv.
Ben-Eliezer referred specifically to the mortar attack overnight in Gaza, in which a shell landed on the roof of a home in one of the settlements in the Strip, causing extensive damage but not inflicting any injuries.
"The defense minister has made it clear to the Palestinians that he expects from them vigorous action to halt terrorism and violence, as well as smuggling by sea and on land," a ministry statement said. It added, however, that Ben-Eliezer "intends to continue" with the security agreement.
Israel Radio reported the Palestinians saying that nobody had told them officially that the meeting was off, and that they had only heard the news through the media.
Defense sources said that Ben-Eliezer had been expected to tell Yehiyeh at the meeting that the time is not yet ripe for an IDF redeployment in the West Bank city of Hebron. But the sources added that Ben-Eliezer has been encouraged by the quiet in Bethlehem.
While there has been rhetoric on both sides about the plan being frozen or canceled, Yehiyeh met with PA security forces chiefs Tuesday and told them that the plan is moving ahead, and that he is determined to conduct the reform of the security forces.
Defense Ministry sources said Ben-Eliezer had also planned to tell Yehiyeh to disregard reports in the Israeli press about Israel backing down from the plan and that its progress is dependent on the efforts made by the PA to prevent terror.
Yehiyeh has so far failed to persuade the Palestinian militias to lay down their weapons. After a series of meetings with the leaders of Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other militant groups in the Gaza Strip last week, Yehiyeh published a call for these groups to abandon armed struggle.
His call, however, fell on deaf ears, with the Islamic groups saying they had no intention of halting attacks, and the united intifada leadership issuing its own call, to the Palestinian Authority, to cease talks with Israeli security officials on the 'Gaza First' plan.
U.S. envoy Satterfield arrives in IsraelSpecial U.S. envoy David Satterfield arrived in Israel on Wednesday for meetings with Israeli and Palestinian officials.
Satterfield has already met Palestinian Cabinet Minister and chief negotiator Saeb Erekat, and is scheduled to meet with Palestinian Finance Minister Salim Fayad.
The U.S. envoy will also meet with Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and Shin Bet chief Avi Dichter.

Yesterday, we had a Sunday family dinner at my house. I invited my Grandparents over to have dinner with my mom and I.
At first, we aimed to make BBQ Ribs, but it was soon obvious that a pair of amateurs like us couldn't get the fire going and the coals hot. So, to the oven they went.
We didn't miss the BBQ flavor. The ribs cooked in the oven over low heat for almost four hours. As we attempted to cut them in pieces before serving, we realized they were too tender, almost falling from the bone. We served the entire rack on the table so everyone could take pieces with their hands. No flatware was necessary.
We served corn on the cob, Texas-style potato salad and baked beans as side dishes. Every thing was delicious. For dessert, I baked this flavorful cookies right after finishing our dinner.
This is the first cookie recipe on the Blog. Every time I tried to bake cookies in the past, they ended up as a big blob of goo. I don't know what it is with me and cookies.
A few days ago, I bought coconut Flour in an attempt to continue experimenting with Gluten Free baking. First, I made Coconut Flour Pancakes. They were ok, not good, but not bad. A little too grainy and heavy for my taste.
Then I found this recipe for Gluten Free Coconut Flour Cookies. They're perfect, really. After a few adjustments, I was able to reach the perfect batter.
Lightly toasting the coconut flakes and almond pieces that go into the batter, gives the final product an extra crunchy edge. It also helps to develop the flavors better. Try them, you'll fall in love.
|They have a soft texture at first, but put them in the fridge to develop some crisp.
This recipe yields 16-18, three inch cookies.
½ cup sifted, Coconut Flour
½ cup chopped, raw Almonds
½ cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1/4 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1 cup Coconut flakes
-Preheat oven to 175C (350F).
-Put the chopped almonds and coconut flakes in baking sheet and bake until the coconut is lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool.
-Mix together butter, sugar, salt, eggs and vanilla extract. Stir in flour, coconut and toasted almonds. Let batter rest for 4 to 5 minutes to allow it to thicken slightly. It will be very runny, don't worry. Put it in the fridge until it has completely cooled down. It'll get very thick.
-Drop batter in spoon-size mounds 1 inch apart on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 190 Degree C (375F) for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly and remove from cookie sheet. Makes about 2 dozen small cookies.

At just 23 years old Sorcha Glenn is battling cervical cancer - here she tells her story and urges other women to make sure to get screened.
Wednesday was a good day for 23 year old Sorcha Glenn. She was able to get dressed, put on some make up and even go into town to meet some friends for lunch.
There is nothing, apart from perhaps the crutches she uses to help her get around, which distinguishes Sorcha from any other young woman of her age.
But for the last year Sorcha has been facing the fight of her life - after being diagnosed with cervical cancer at the age of just 22 - and despite her ordeal she remains steadfastly positive and determined to share her story to raise awareness of her condition.
"I had gone to my doctor last June to ask for a smear test, due to a family history of cervical cancer" Sorcha said. "I was told that smears aren't routinely done until a woman turns 25, so I was happy enough with that. I assumed there mustn't be a risk - and I wasn't having symptoms at that stage."
But just two months later, Sorcha started to experience abnormal bleeding between periods and suffered from pelvic cramping.
"So of course I went back to my doctor - who did a smear test there and then."
While the test was being carried out Sorcha's GP noticed a mass on her cervix and while she thought it may just have been a cyst, Sorcha was sent for a biopsy.
"When I went to book the biopsy, the doctor had a look. Then called two other doctors in to have a look and all of them took biopsies. I suppose I knew then that something was wrong - and I had to start preparing myself for the news that it could be cancer."
After a long week, Sorcha and her boyfriend Matt went to meet with the gynaecologist at Altnagelvin Hospital.
"We had to wait for over an hour, but they were very keen we stayed and waited to see the doctor. And when she arrived we were taken to a wee room with a couple of chairs, and a box of tissues on a table and I knew then that it was cancer. I just started crying."
But while Sorcha said she was upset, she didn't become hysterical. "We didn't know how bad it was, and we had to wait for more tests - so I suppose I was probably in shock. I just set about getting the other tests, telling people what was happening and all. I was up and down to Belfast for tests and as a young couple we were also faced with tough choices about our future.
"We had to decide what to do about my fertility. We knew the treatment would mean I would never carry children of my own so we had to decide whether to freeze my eggs, or try and freeze an embryo.
"It wasn't even something we had discussed and we were left with very little time to make that decision. We were a young couple, unsure of what the future would bring. It was tough.
The couple decided to freeze some of Sorcha's eggs and her gruelling treatment began.
She underwent six rounds of chemo, 30 radiotherapy sessions and brachytherapy.
"The first week, I was very sick," she said, "But I didn't lose my hair and I was happy about that. As the weeks went on I felt as if I was getting better - if I was getting stronger and then when my treatment was done, I thought that was it. I had done it."
However a scan in January revealed 12 swollen lymph nodes -so Sorcha underwent surgery to remove some of them and test them. "They came back clear, so that was good news," Sorcha said.
But then in March, a PET scan revealed the lymph nodes were still enlarged.
"At that stage I was told my best option was a full hysterectomy and full pelvic lymph node clearance."
The news came as a shock to Sorcha, who had just celebrated her 23rd birthday and was feeling as if she was "getting back to herself".
"But if that was what it was going to take to take the cancer away, then I was going to go for it. Nothing worked down there any more anyway!" she smiled.
So she underwent the surgery, plunging her body into early menopause. Of all her hurdles, this she said was the toughest. "No one can prepare you for surgery like that," she said. "That was the one time I got really, really down about. I could barely move. I couldn't eat. I lost two stone."
But she said with the support of the medical professionals around her - and her mammy, she was able to get herself back on an evening keel.
But cancer was not done with Sorcha yet - and in June of this year she started another course of treatment. Just weeks later however it was found that her kidneys were enlarged and the cancer had reappeared in her lymph nodes.
Sorcha faced further treatment and the insertion of stents in her kidneys.
And her next bout of chemo almost cost her her life. "My daddy had been with me all day," Sorcha said. "And he had just gone home when I was given my chemo. I went into anaphylactic shock - I couldn't see. I couldn't breathe. I felt like I was dying. It was terrifying."
Thankfully doctors acted quickly to stop the treatment but it was a set back for Sorcha as doctors tried to find a suitable treatment to go forward with - and just last week she started her most recent cycle of chemotherapy.
The future remains uncertain, but Sorcha is unfailingly positive.
"There are only so many times you can ask why?" she said. "And then you have accept you are never going to know why and just get on with it,
"Perhaps the why was just so that I could help other women - to talk about cervical cancer and urge women to go for their smear tests.
"There is no fear in it - if you can get a bikini wax, you can get a smear! There's no pain in it, and there's no embarrassment in it.
"Ten seconds of being uncomfortable is so much better than going through what I am going through," she said.
Sorcha is determined to do all she can to help others. This latest round of chemo will see her hair fall out - and even then she is determined to make a difference.
"When it starts to fall out, I'll put it in a plait, cut it all off and donate it to the Little Princess Trust to make wigs for young girls with cancer. Better that than put it in the bin or wash it down the sink."
She also wants to campaign for a change in the law to revert cervical cancer screening to the age of 20.
"If anyone has any concerns at all, regardless of what age they are, insist on a smear. In my opinion if a woman wants a smear she should have one - and she shouldn't have to fight for it."
While Sorcha impresses with her strength of character, she does not hesitate in paying tribute to all those around her who are supporting her. "My mammy and daddy ask me where I get my strength from but the truth is I get it from the people around me, from them and my sisters and brothers, Matt and my friends. You have to have bad days to balance the good, but they keep me going even when it is tough."

In a nutshell for those who don't want to read all of below:I have given a website owner a PHP script and I am searching for a method to only allow that script to be run on each page of his website 4 times, not more.
Now for the full brief:
I am creating an ad network where publishers register their website, choose from 6 different ad sizes and receive a code in JS where they can place anywhere on their site.
So basically my problem is that I give the publisher a script for a specific ad size (300x250 for example) and he can place it anywhere in his site, but this can be abused, imagine someone takes this script and places it 1,000,000 times on his page, it will cause a lot of problems for me, my servers, and will be unfair method of making money.
I want to restrict this to only 4.
I have two pages right now with two different methods of approach:
This one loads fast.
In order to fix that problem I have done below:
This one loads too slow.
How can I come with a method that is fast and stops such actions?

WSU pounds the ball in second scrimmage
Washington State's second scrimmage is in the books, or on the web if you prefer. We have our story on the link and our usual web-only notes. Read on.
• Here's our story for tomorrow's S-R ...
PULLMAN – In the week leading up to the second scrimmage of the spring, Washington State University football coach Paul Wulff emphasized it was time for the offense to take some strides.
After a little more than an hour on a clear, warm Saturday morning in Martin Stadium, did he get what he asked for?
"Absolutely," Wulff said. "I think we cleaned up a lot of things schematically and execution-wise – we still made mistakes, but from a teaching perspective I think we cleaned a lot of things up."
In a scrimmage notable for the sound of popping pads, the Cougar offense scored three times. And one of those scores – a 3-yard run by Logwone Mitz – culminated a 70-yard drive matching the top offense with the second-team defense.
But there was one area WSU dropped the ball, literally.
"The obvious (problem) right now is dropped balls," Wulff said. "That has kind of been a hindrance for us for a while."
Then Wulff called out the four scholarship receivers – Gino Simone, Daniel Blackledge, Jared Karstetter and Jeffrey Solomon – on the roster, though not by name.
"(It's) a good thing we've got seven new receivers coming if for the fall," Wulff said. "They are going to (raise) the competition to a much higher level. The performance has not been consistent enough in that position.
"They've got to catch them. They have to focus and get their job done. If not, we've got to get somebody who can.
The quarterbacks – Jeff Tuel, Marshall Lobbestael and David Gilbertson – finished a combined 16 of 27 for 160 yards, though those numbers could have been higher after at least three drops.
But there were also a couple exceptional catches, most notably Kartstetter's 12-yard diving touchdown reception of a Lobbestael throw to the back right corner of the end zone.
This was a day to showcase the running backs, though. The two healthy backs – Mitz and Leon Brooks – carried the ball 24 times, something Wulff said was planned.
"We wanted to challenge those guys," he said. "We want to see them carry it not four or six times in a scrimmage, we would like to see some guys carry the ball 15, 20 times to see how they handle that."
Bring it on, said the 6-foot-1, 232-pound Mitz, who had 64 yards on 16 carries.
"I feel like I could thrive if I could do that," said the junior, who missed the first part of spring with a concussion. "At the same time, we need to be in shape for that. With the offense we've been running and the way we've been rotating the running backs, I'm not used to it."
He will be, Wulff said.
"There's no question Logwone needs (to get a lot of carries)," Wulff said. "We need to find out if he's a Pac-10 player week in and week out. He showed flashes today again."
One of his flashes came on the first of 52 plays, a 17-yard burst off right tackle. And, like his 3-yard touchdown run on which he was completely untouched, the opening play was blocked well.
"They're getting after it," fifth-year defensive end Kevin Kooyman said of the offensive line.
Kooyman and the defense also got after at times, despite the absence of starting safety Chima Nwachukwu, attending a student athletic representatives workshop.
Backups like Jamal Atofau and Casey Locker brought some big hits and starting corner Daniel Simmons came up with an interception, diving to gather in a tipped pass.
"We've got to change the momentum and the tempo of the games," Kooyman said of the defense. "We're emphasizing coming out a little intense. It's good to see some people popping pads and getting after it."
• And some more notes. ... With Nwachukwu gone, Tyree Toomer paired with LeAndre Daniels at the safety spots with the No. 1 defense. But it was the play of backups Atafou and Locker, playing with the second group, which shined. Both attacked the run and closed on receivers, delivering big hits. Another defender who seemed to have a big day was middle linebacker Hallston Higgins. The senior, giving an opportunity with Louis Bland out for the spring and Mike Ledgerwood missing for a while, has stepped up, using the extra 5 to 10 pounds he put on over the winter to clog the middle. ... The defensive line also had its moments, with Brandon Rankin and Travis Long disruptive at times and Kooyman pairing with Bernard Wolfgramm to clog up the weakside. ... There was one temper flareup and it cost the defense two deadball personal fouls (on Rankin and Long it seemed), putting the ball on the 5 in a red zone situation. On the play, starting center Andrew Roxas had his left ankle rolled up on and he had to be helped off the field. He was on crutches with ice on the ankle at the end. ... Backup safety Jay Matthews seemed to ding his left shoulder as well and did not return. ... The four running backs on the sidelines: James Montgomery, Chantz Staden, Carl Winston and Marcus Richmond. There are three freshmen expected to enroll in the spring. ...
• One of the Cougars' 2009 recruits, Quayshawne Buckley, a 6-4, 280-pound defensive tackle from California that was unable to get eligible for school, is in Pullman, taking some on-line courses and working a job. Wulff said he didn't know more than that, though Buckley was watching the scrimmage. ... Kooyman has earned praise from Wulff for his play, but Kooyman really is just happy to be playing. Last year was expected to be his senior season, but the defensive end was injured early and missed the year. He could have graduated and moved on, but decided to return. "Why not?" he said. "I've got to take advantage of the time I've got." ... Talking with Mitz after the scrimmage, the conversation veered off the on-field play and into the chemistry developing off the field. "I like this team chemistry we've got, or we've had going for the past year and a half," he said. "Obviously, our team is a lot closer and lot stronger than we were eight months ago, a year ago, 18 months ago. We're about to go into the summer and we're grinding, working. The summer is only going to make us even closer than we already are. I don't even know if that's possible. But as a team, we're getting closer, we're getting stronger, and everything is going to develop on the field as those things come together." ... Field goal kicker Nico Grasu struggled Saturday, making just 2 of 7 attempts. He was the only kicker given an opportunity as the other two on the roster, Blake Dunn and Alex Gauper, have struggled as well. Wulff was asked if he was worried about the position. "We want to work on a lot of different things," Wulff said of spring and the kickers, "and we want to see who we can trust to kick the ball through the uprights. We don't have anybody right now that is capable of doing it on a consistent basis. That's just the facts. The guys who are here have got to get better. They have now and next fall to prove they can, then the new people we've got coming in are going to have an opportunity to win the job as well." Two freshman kickers are coming in this fall: Andrew Furney and Jacob Miller of Central Valley High.
• That's it for today. We'll be back tomorrow if there is stuff to link. Until then ...

Egyptian actress Muna Shalabi denied circulating rumors that she has left her mother's home, resigned belly dancer Zizi Mustafa, and moved out on her own.
The actress stressed that she would never leave her mother and cannot imagine living away from her. She added that living with her mother gives her stability and security.
Muna stated that many actresses who leave their family homes to live on their own are haunted with numerous rumors and that is one of the many reasons she would not consider it. She noted that with her mother on her side she feels the value of family and is very close with her mother and does not keep any secret from her.
On a different note, Muna is currently undergoing rehearsals for a new play "Awlad Al Latheen" (Sons of), which is written by Osama Anwar Akasheh. Prominent Egyptian actor Mahmoud Al Jundi, Yasser Faraj, and actor Tamer Abdul Mune'im costar alongside Muna.
Muna is also starring in the new film "Hia Fawda" (Its Chaos) with actors KHaled Saleh, Yousif Al Sharif and Hala Fakher. The film is written by Naser Abdul Rahman and is directed by internationally well-known director Yousif Shaheen.

Reviewer's grade: B
A comic-book flick is well-insulated from film criticism. When the movie boasts full-blooded characterization, as is the case with the "Spider-Man" franchise, it earns kudos for ambition. If it serves up eye-popping action, also part of "Spider-Man," it's praised for preserving the spirit of the source material. And when it occasionally stumbles into lazy writing and campiness " as in "Spider-Man 3″ " some moviegoers are apt to scoff at such protestations and reply: "For crying out loud, it's based on a comic book."
"Spider-Man 3″ is great fun for much of its 140-minute running time, loaded with the requisite thrills, special effects and spectacle you expect from summer popcorn fare. But director Sam Raimi lards the proceedings with more plot than the film rightly can sustain.
Trouble mounts for Peter Parker/Spidey (Tobey Maguire), who must fend off challenges from Harry Osborn (James Franco), his onetime pal-turned-Green Goblin Jr.; smarmy photographer-turned-monster Eddie Brock (Topher Grace); and a prison escapee-turned-shape-shifting Sandman (Thomas Haden Church). Even Peter's relationship with Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst) is on the skids.
That's a lotta story threads for Raimi to weave without entanglement, and the task ultimately proves impossible by the final third, when the film succumbs to contrivance and jarring changes in tone. While "3" falls short of the gold standard set by 2004's "Spider-Man 2," this go-round still offers plenty to satisfy fanboys. PG-13 -Phil Bacharach

The hurried burial is because the decomposition of the body had reached the point where the "corpse cannot last any longer."
TRIPOLI: Ousted Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi will be buried on Tuesday in a secret desert grave, a National Transitional Council official said, ending a wrangle over his rotting corpse that led many to fear for Libya's governability.
With their Western allies uneasy that Gaddafi was battered and shot after his capture on Thursday, rebels had put the body on show in a cold store while they argued over what to do with it, until its decay forced them on Monday to close the doors.
"He will be buried w in a simple burial with sheikhs attending the burial. It will be an unknown location in the open desert," the official told Reuters by telephone, adding that the decomposition of the body had reached the point where the "corpse cannot last any longer."
The killing of the 69-year-old in his hometown of Sirte brought to a close eight months of war, finally ending a nervous two-month hiatus since the motley rebel forces of the NTC overran the capital Tripoli.
But it also threatened to lay bare the regional and tribal rivalries that present the NTC with its biggest challenge.
NTC officials had said negotiations were going on with Gaddafi's tribal kinsmen from Sirte and within the interim leadership over where and how to dispose of the bodies, and on what the Misrata rebel leaders in possession of the corpses might receive in return for cooperation.
"No agreement was reached for his tribe to take him," the official told Reuters.
With the decay of the body forcing the NTC leadership's hand, it appeared to have decided that an anonymous grave would at least ensure the plot did not become a shrine.
An NTC official had told Reuters several days ago that there would be only four witnesses to the burial, and all would swear on the Koran never to reveal the location.
Rebel fears that Gaddafi's sons might mount an insurgency have been largely allayed by the death of two of those who wielded most power, military commander Khamis and Mo'tassim, the former national security adviser.
Mo'tassim was captured along with his father in Sirte and killed in similarly unclear circumstances, and the NTC official said he would be buried in the same ceremony on Tuesday.
But he said Gaddafi's long-time heir apparent Saif al-Islam was set to flee Libya, with the NTC powerless to stop him.
"He's on the triangle of Niger and Algeria. He's south of Ghat, the Ghat area. He was given a false Libyan passport from the area of Murzuq," the official added.
He said Muammar Gaddafi's former intelligence chief Abdullah al-Senussi who, like Saif al-Islam, is wanted by the International Criminal Court, was involved in the plot.
"The region is very, very difficult to monitor and encircle," he said. "The region is a desert region and it has … many, many exit routes."
Burial delay
Officials at one point declared the show was over, closed the gates and started turning people away. "That's enough," said one of the guards, "He's been causing us as much trouble dead as he did alive." But within an hour, there was a change of plan as dozens more sightseers arrived and were shown in.
The killings near Sirte, after cellphone video footage was taken showing the captive Gaddafi being beaten and mocked by fighters apparently from Misrata, are also a matter of controversy — at least outside Libya. The United Nations human rights arm has joined the Gaddafi family in seeking an inquiry.
NTC chairman Mustafa Abdel Jalil told a news conference on Monday that the NTC had formed a committee to investigate.
He also indicated that the interim authorities still held to an official line that Gaddafi may have been killed in "crossfire" with his own men, a view many NTC officials themselves seem ready to discount.
"Those who have an interest in killing him before prosecuting him are those who had an active role with him," said Abdel Jalil, who like many of the new leadership held positions of authority under Gaddafi.
Few Libyans seem troubled either about how Gaddafi and his entourage were killed or why their corpses were displayed for so long in what seemed a grim parody of the lying-in-state often reserved for national leaders.
"God made the pharaoh as an example to the others," said Salem Shaka, who was viewing the bodies in Misrata on Monday.
"If he had been a good man, we would have buried him. But he chose this destiny for himself."
The killing of fallen autocrats is far from a novelty. In Europe in living memory, similar fates befell Nicolae Ceausescu in Romania in 1989 and Benito Mussolini, who had created modern Libya as an Italian colony a decade before he died in 1945.
However, some of the anti-Gaddafi rebels' Western allies have expressed disquiet about the treatment of Gaddafi after his capture and after his death, and worry that Libya's new leaders will not uphold their promise to respect human rights.
"They were not pleasant images," said British Prime Minister David Cameron, an early supporter of the rebellion.
"Everyone understands that is not what should have happened. It should have ended in a trial and should have ended in Gaddafi facing justice," Cameron told parliament in London.

I am a University of Georgia faculty member. I did not cancel classes Oct. 26. Even if I had, would that be reason to call me an "overpaid dilettante," as your Nov. 4 editorial ("University now indelibly marked as party school") did? What chain of reasoning led from an instance of bad judgment by what will likely turn out to be a minority of faculty to that unfounded and inflammatory characterization?
Since the editorial speaks of measuring us against our peer institutions, it might make sense for the newspaper to back up such a charge with actual data. UGA faculty members are, in fact, underpaid in comparison to faculty at many of our peer institutions, and the provost's office could supply you with that data if you would only ask.
Moreover, I am baffled by the term "dilettante," which I take to mean you believe we don't take our jobs seriously. Again, some data would be helpful. As UGA President Michael Adams noted in regard to UGA's recent ranking, again, in the top 20 public institutions, we continue to do our jobs remarkably well in the face of budget cuts, increasing enrollment and class sizes, and generally declining resources. If we were not taking our jobs seriously, surely there would be some corresponding decline in our academic reputation.
We are, in fact, working harder than ever, and your unfair characterization of us as a group does not help us make the case to the legislature that we need more resources to keep doing so.
You owe UGA faculty an apology.

For the record, the "mini-drum bongo things" mentioned on Forest are called roto-toms. I've been meaning to pick some up for my set.
Album Rating: 4.0Dead, I disagree about Daron's riffs as a whole are not creative. Sure, there are some heavy riffs that are like "1-0-1-0-1"-style power chords, but there are some different ones as of late (and probably on this album) that are somewhat complex. "Question?" seems to have a somewhat complex riff at the beginning, just as an example.
Still cant bleev that chop seuy is their most famous song..... i mean im not saying its bad but its just not the best on this album
Album Rating: 4.0[quote=unknownST]Still cant bleev that chop seuy is their most famous song..[/quote]
Its clear to say that MTV has chosen their most 'famous' song up to now, to be B.Y.O.B. or Question. What would you expect from the channel that can make anything popular, as long as they have that 'hypnosis' method with the younger aduience.
Now i come to think about it when is hypnotise due out (in th U.K?)
Album Rating: 3.5SOAD is gonna have a new album out? When?
SOAD are so much better than all other nu metal bands (translation: they dont suck) because their music actually has energy to it. aerials was a boring, skipable song to me because there is no energy at all. psycho is repetitive but still a good song. the main riff is pretty awesome.
o i give this album a 4.5/5 except for aerials every song is great
Album Rating: 3.5I like psycho, I'm with you on aerials though. It's very boring.
The album as a whole is very good. Deer Dance is my fav.
Album Rating: 4.0[quote=Man Made God]Deer Dance is my fav.[/quote]
Mine too. great lyrics.
"Baton courtesy. Service with a smile."
Makes me chuckle every time.
Album Rating: 3.5Pretty much, I also really like prison song
hello?..... when is hypnotise out?
Album Rating: 4.0November 22nd
in the UK?
gotta admit no matter what their drummer has some awesome chops
Don't know if anyone else has posted this or not, but ATWA is a ballad that's actually a tribute to Charles Manson.
Album Rating: 4.5I honestly have a hard time seeing what the big deal is with this album. Sure, it's good, but not worth a Grammy! I think their self-titled was much better. Still an awsome band though.
It's just that toxicity broke them to more mainstream listening base, I agree the first album was better and still is the best new system is just mostly all riffs and chords to where the self titled actually had solos
very nice track by track. maybe a little more background, but the issue is really nothing to lower the integrity of the review. as for the album...my 2nd fave SOAD album (coming second to the ST). my favorite song for the moment on the album is 'Deer Dance' because its so bouncy. this is really the album that put SOAD on the map so a lot of people called them 'Sell-Outs' which is a bunch of bull. They didn't sell out for going in a different direction. There is less 'wtf' music and more 'omfg 1337 pwnage' music (sorry... ), but for (almost) any soad fan, the difference is scant. I would definately recommend getting the album if you havent heard much SOAD. This is more than likely the album to get you hooked. And ill say it again, very nice review.
Album Rating: 4.0great review!
wow, what a comment.

LONDON, July 21 (UPI) -- Madame Tussauds is working on a wax statue of British actor Benedict Cumberbatch.
The acclaimed wax museum unveiled the news Monday along with a photo of the actor being measured by the sculptors in London.
Cumberbatch's "immaculate red carpet style will be paired with a warm and relaxed expression, and his famous tousled hairstyle" for the upcoming statue.
"Finally I can photobomb myself!" the Sherlock star joked. "What a weird and wonderful compliment to be included in the ranks of talent already committed to wax. I've been accused of being wooden in my work but never waxy!"
Cumberbatch went on to say it had a been privilege to witness the process and to see "the amount of exacting work and skill brought to every detail of this art form."
Benedict Cumberbatch has his eye colour matched for his Madame Tussauds waxwork figure http://t.co/DKrEdScY6A pic.twitter.com/L9I0XwhdOb— HuffPostUK Pictures (@HuffPostUKPics) July 21, 2014
"Measurements, hand inserted individual hairs and sculpted features. As a subject, you stand still surrounded by sculptors, painters, photographers, measurers and a whole army of people who bring together your likeness... it's an extraordinary experience," he added. "Also my agents will be thrilled, they've wanted a clone of me for some time!"
The actor's wax figure is slated for an October debut.

RUSSIAN agents have detained a Colombian priest on arrival at a Moscow airport and found he had swallowed over a dozen condoms stuffed with cocaine, the federal anti-narcotics service says.
Anti-narcotics officers detained the man at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport because his "sickly appearance and nervous behaviour" raised suspicions, the service said.
They took him to a Moscow hospital where they found 13 packages of cocaine in his stomach. They also found five more in his luggage, with a total of 780 grams of cocaine.
Russian television showed footage of the operation with the young bespectacled priest in black clothes and a dog collar with a cross.
It said that the priest, who had flown via Paris, had swallowed condoms full of cocaine.
Television showed ID cards naming him as Fabio Ricardo Rodriguez, a priest within the Holy Catholic Church-Western Rite.
"The organisers of the drug business, as you can see, stoop to the dirtiest methods, even involving representatives of the most virtuous professions," the drug service said.
The priest is now in a pre-trial detention centre in the Moscow satellite of Khimki and was visited by the Colombian consul, Russian television reported.
It showed him holding a rosary in his cell.
"Since I am a priest, this situation is very complex. It goes against my morals and my convictions, but I was forced by a mafia gang to commit this action, I had no choice," he said in televised comments dubbed into Russian.
Asked what he would do in jail, he replied: "Pray for forgiveness of my sins and reflect on my life."
He could serve 10 to 15 years for smuggling drugs, Russian television said.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - Annika Sorenstam had two hours to wait after finishing play to see if the golf course that had frustrated her again would help keep her in the Michelob Ultra Open for the weekend by doing the same to others.
Not long enough. With a second straight 2-over-par 73 Friday, the top player in women's golf missed the cut for the first time since 2002.
Karrie Webb, the first-round leader, is at 8-under 134 after a 68 and leads Christie Kerr by one shot and Pat Hurst by two.

Nouns Activities for Kids
In this set of activities adaptable for grades K-3, parents and educators will find ideas for teaching about basic nouns. These activities are designed to complement the BrainPOP Jr. Nouns topic page, which includes a movie, quizzes, online games, printable activities, and more.
Classroom Activities for Teaching Nouns
Speedy Nouns
Give scraps of paper or index cards to small groups of students or pairs. Challenge them to label as many nouns as possible in the classroom in five minutes. One person can time, while the others label. The student who labels the most nouns in the given time can be the timer in the next round. You can then modify the activity to have students label nouns that begin with a specific letter or label plural nouns.
Nouns, Nouns, and More Nouns
Have reading partners choose a book together. Have them read along and record all the nouns they see in the book. You may wish to give them a chart and have them sort the nouns into people, animals, places, or things. There can be a special section for collecting proper nouns. If they encounter a new word, they can look it up in the dictionary to see if it is a noun.
Noun Mad Libs
Have students write a short paragraph. Then have them erase all the nouns in their stories. Have pairs come together and do Mad Libs with their stories. One student can name nouns blindly while the other plugs them into his or her story. Then have students share their Mad Libs with the whole class. You can also modify the activity by having students choose a short paragraph from a book and then having partners think of nouns to replace.
Family and Homeschool Activities for Teaching Nouns
Noun Hunt
Choose a noun and then challenge your child to find the same noun throughout your home. Then you can switch roles and have your child choose a noun. Have your child keep a record of all the nouns you have found together. He or she can write them on cards with drawings or pictures on the back, and bind them together into a Noun Dictionary.
Noun of the Day
Each day, choose a noun to be the "Noun of the Day" and post it somewhere in your home. Then whenever the noun comes up in conversation or in reading, stop and cheer. Your child may wish to record the number of times the noun comes up during the day.

For years, Auchentoshan say, evangelists asked them to create a non-chill-filtered, cask strength edition of their acclaimed Auchentoshan Classic and, hence, Valinch was born. The Valinch is the name of the pipette used to draw whisky straight from the cask. An appropriate name for a whisky with all the depth of taste, flavour and texture associated with sampling whisky at source. Pale straw in colour, it has a gorgeous nose of crème brûlée and a sweet, creamy palate with a real orange zest oomph.
Bringing out raw power and some proper big guns , this character is like… Alter Ego: The Rock. A world-class champion that could wrestle a redwood oak to the ground if it wanted to, although these days it's much more mellow and quite an active proponent of crème brûlée Pleasing to the eye and best seen in small batches.
