Question:If you have a client who has a Goal of feeding himself with set up and supervision by d/c and he has had a R CVA, L flaccid hemiplegia with poor sitting balance, what would be some things to do with him to help him meet his goal?
Answer: You need to work on the following:
Use of non-dominant hand (if applicable)
Ordering any adaptive equipment
Education about pocketing food
Swallowing issues (with aid of speech therapist)
Work to improve sitting balance. I find that most patients can learn to sit up independently prior to d/c even with flaccid hemiplegia. Any activity will be difficult if the patient cannot sit up so that is always one of the first things I work on. If the patient has had an extremely severe stroke and cannot sit up after extensive rehab, then you will need to make sure they are positioned safely in their w/c to perform feeding.
If the patient is flaccid on their dominant side, they will need to learn to feed themselves with the non-dominant hand so actually practicing with the non-dominant hand is important since it will be awkward. Coordination exercises may be necessary if coordination has been affected.
You may need a plate guard to keep food from spilling from their plate or even curved utensils if coordination is an issue.
Another aspect of feeding involves making sure you educate the patient about pocketing of food on the weak side and how to clear the food with the tongue. If the patient has swallowing issues, the speech therapist can educate the patient on the appropriate techniques to improve swallow function.
You will also need to make sure the patient doesn't have any visual field deficits or hemianopsia. If a patient does have these issues, then it is important to have them learn to scan further for food or to have the caregiver set the plate further toward the strong side in the patient's line of vision.
Have the patient practice, practice, practice!

Question: How can I reduce excessive drooling and cut down on thick mucous build-up?
Answer: Drooling and excessive salivation which is called sialorrhea can be a problem following stroke. It is often caused by poor control of oral and facial muscles. It can also be caused by decreased sensation, poor posture, or other factors such as dental malocclusion or increased production of saliva. Some of the treatment options for sialorrhea include:
1) Speech therapy including oral and facial exercises to strengthen musculature - you can find sample oral motor exercises at www.speech-therapy-on-video.com/oralmotor.html
2) Positioning devices to improve posture
3) Orthodontic plates that can aid in better lip closure
4) Medications that block the parasympathetic innervation of the salivary glands
5) Injection of botulinum toxin into the salivary glands (must be repeated because effects wear off after several months)
6) Surgery to denervate the salivary glands
Here is an article that gives more depth information about management of sialorrhea:
I would first try speech therapy or exercises to strengthen your oral motor control. If that doesn't work then I would talk to a physician or dentist about other options.

Question: Are there any techniques to stop coughing when drinking? I know about using thickeners but wonder if there were drinking techniques?
Answer: There are compensatory swallow techniques that speech language pathologists (SLPs) use with some stroke patients to improve swallowing. It is impossible to tell if the strategies are successful unless they are observed during a video fluoroscopy with a modified barium swallow so it is not advisable for an indivual to try strategies on their own. One should consult a SLP to determine which strategies to use. A SLP can instruct patients on what strategies may work and can verify that the strategies are successful through video fluoroscopy.
Some common swallow strategies that are used are upright posture when drinking, small sips, no straws, chin tuck when swallowing, and alternating food with drink. There are also exercises the SLP can do with a patient to strengthen the muscles involved in swallowing.
Aspiration occurs when liquid or food travel down the windpipe into the lungs rather than the esophagus. Aspiration can be silent without any symptoms, cause pneumonia, and can be fatal so it is very important to follow whatever precautions the SLP advises.

Question: If a client had a left CVA, where may pocketing of food occur?
Answer: Typically, a stroke that occurs in the left side of the brain will affect the right side of the face thus pocketing would occur on the right. There are some exceptions to this though depending on what structure of the brain is affected.

Question: My mother had acute stroke 2 months ago. She has thrush in her mouth and is refusing to eat. She has experienced small type stroke on her other side but nothing too serious and they want her to return to rehab. Rehab does not want her until she eats. She has very good return on her right side and is just on the verge of walking and can pick up her right arm. What do we do - should we put in a feeding tube?
Answer: This is definitely a medical question rather than a physical rehabilitation question so I would tell you to consult the physician. Obviously you want to make sure she is getting treated for the thrush. If she is not getting enough nutrition, and the MD feels a feeding tube is appropriate, then I would follow their advice. An inpatient rehab will accept someone with a feeding tube, and the doctors can write orders allowing her to physically eat and only supplement with the feeding tube as necessary until she can tolerate fully eating by mouth.

Question: My Dad had a hemorrhagic stroke five days ago. The neurologist said he would never be able to move his left side but within one day he was raising his left leg - still can't move his left arm but the medical team work with him everyday. His speech is better but I don't understand why he can't have one drop of water, his mouth is full of dead skin and he is so begging for water. The neurologist said if one drop of water reaches his lungs that he could get pneumonia. I don't understand, please explain.
Answer: A stroke victim's swallowing can be affected, and some patients cannot drink any liquid because it goes into their lungs rather than their stomach. This process is called aspiration. Aspiration pneumonia can occur as a result which can be deadly. Varied sources report that 15-31% of stroke related deaths are due to aspiration pneumonia so it is very serious. Please do not give any liquid to your father without being instructed to do so.
The hospital should have special swabs that can be used to moisten his mouth/lips. You could also request that the MD write some type of order for staff to address your dad's oral care at least twice a day if you feel that it is not being done. One of the risk factors for aspiration pneumonia is bacteria in the mouth and poor oral care so it is important that they are cleaning the oral cavity. The swabs mentioned above do not clean the mouth. They only provide moisture relief. The moisture relief will help with the dryness, but make sure that oral care is taking place as well. If you want to learn more about it, you can do an online search of oral care and dysphagia or oral care and aspiration pneumonia.

Hyderabad, April 7: Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will miss the services of all-rounder Yuvraj Singh for at least 2 weeks at the start of the 9th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Tournament schedule; Full list of squads
Left-handed Yuvraj sustained an injury to his ankle during the ICC World Twenty20 tournament (versus Australia on March 27) last month, resulting in him missing the semi-final against West Indies on March 31.
He is yet to recover from the blow and will be out of action "for a couple of weeks", SRH coach Tom Moody has confirmed yesterday (April 6).
"Sadly, Yuvraj will be out for a couple of weeks but we don't know how long that is going to be," Moody told IPL's official website on Wednesday.
At this year's players auction, Yuvraj was picked by SRH for Rs 7 crore, making him the team's costliest buy in 2016.
Explaining the logic behind buying Yuvraj, Moody said they wanted to strengthen their middle order batting.
"Going into the auction, we were aware that we needed to strengthen our middle order. Hence we targeted players like Yuvraj and Deepak Hooda to give us that depth in our middle order and they compliment what we already have in our squad.
"What we are aware of this year is building a great depth and strength in our squad and by securing people like Aditya Tare, Tirumalasetti Suman who has had a lot of IPL experience in the past, we feel that we have got that depth of talent to be able to cover for any circumstance and Yuvraj's absence is one of them. With Yuvraj being injured at this stage, you don't know what is around the corner - you need that depth in the squad," the Australia said.
Moody said they are motivated and wanted to make the play-offs. "We are very motivated like we are every year; there is no doubt about that. We are keen to play finals cricket. We are setting our target on being in that top four," he said.
Australia's David Warner will captain SRH in the new season. The tournament runs from April 9 to May 29. SRH open campaign against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Bengaluru on April 12 (8 PM IST).

Booked a long weekend away to Ibiza with few of my girlfriends. We stayed in Ibiza Gran Hotel which is a 5 star hotel right in the middle of old town. We wanted luxury but also close distance to clubs and beach, this was great! We had so much fun! Don't believe the negative reviews on here, if you want 5 star you have to pay for it, you won't get 5 star luxury for £200 per person. Thoroughly recommend and book again!

Poppy mum furious at flamethrower thug
THE horrified mum of a poppy-selling Army cadet has spoken out after a sick thug fired a flame- thrower into his face.
Callum Watkins, 15, suffered burns when he was attacked by a stranger as he waited at a bus stop after collecting cash.
The hoodie-wearing yob, described as black or Asian, pointed an aerosol can at the schoolboy then lit the spray with a lighter.
Callum had been selling Remembrance Day poppies in the centre of Manchester before he was assaulted by the thug, who appeared to be drunk.
"We just want whoever did this caught so that Callum can put it behind him."Kirsty Sloan
Tearful mum Kirsty Sloan said: "He is very upset by what has happened. His face is burned and he is not very well.
"We just want whoever did this caught so that Callum can put it behind him."
Callum, who serves with the Levenshulme Detachment Duke Of Lancaster's Cadet Regiment, is now recovering from the ordeal at home in Burnage, Manchester.
Royal British Legion chiefs have condemned the attack.
A spokesman said: "It is shocking that a young man who has dedicated his spare time as a cadet to supporting the Poppy Appeal could be targeted in this horrifying manner."
Det Insp Liam Boden, of Greater Manchester Police, said: "This is an absolutely appalling attack on a young man who was raising money to help remember all those who gave their lives fighting bravely for their country.
"We're keeping an open mind as to what motivated the offender to commit such an act.
"His violent actions could have scarred this young man for life."

What is God up to in this world? What is his grand plan? Following my teacher, Graham Cole, I would suggest that the missio dei is to secure God's people in God's place under God's rule living God's way in God's holy and loving presence as worshippers. While we won't look at every single element of the missio dei, I want to use it as a guide for breaking up the discussion. In this post we will look at the relationship between judgment and 'God's place,' which is where we experience God's presence. This may not be the most intuitive place to start, but hopefully it will make sense by the end of the series (if not sooner).
First, though, we need to recognize that what we are doing in this sequence of posts is looking at how God's rule relates to all of the other elements of the God's plan. One of the key roles of a king is to judge. And judge God does, over and over in Scripture. I remember when I first put together a list of significant passages on judgment to try to incorporate into my paper, I had more than 50. Those were just the big ones! So, part of what we hope to gain from this exercise is a better understanding of God in one of the primary ways in which we are to relate to him, as our Lord.
Judgment has always been linked to the both the place where God's people live and how it is that the people get there. In fact the very first time that judgment appears in Scripture is in its neutral sense, where God is judging that his creation is good (Gen. 1:4, 10, 12, 18, 21, 25, 31, ). Within this creation, was a special area, the Garden of Eden, in which God put his people to live in his presence. Adam and Eve mess it up, though, through their sin. As a result, the ground, part of God's good creation, is judged and cursed (Gen. 3:17-19). Our sin has marred God's good creation.
That is not to say that all of creation is now 'bad' in God's eyes. The promised land of Canaan was also deemed by God to be good, 'So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey' (Ex. 3:8a - TNIV). The land of Israel was a good land in which the people were to live in the presence of God, with him as their king. Even though it lacks the splendor of creation prior to the fall, the land does possess relative goodness.
While God's people do not collectively reside in one land anymore, we do have a good place to look forward to. The new heavens and the new earth, the future place that God's people will possess, are never explicitly called good in Revelation 21-22, but they certainly are. The author of Revelation tries to show that the new heavens and new earth are a restoration of God's creation that if anything surpasses the original (there are at least a dozen allusions in Revelation 21-22 to Genesis 1-3). God will give us a good place where we can live enjoying his presence as his bride, in the process undoing all of the damage incurred on his creation through humanity's fall.
The key which ties this all together is the notion of the sacred space of a temple. Eden and the new heavens and the new earth are sacred spaces, the Garden of Eden is a temple (see Greg Beale's important book, The Temple and the Church's Mission). The land of Israel is the place where God builds his temple, which in its architecture and adornment harks back to Eden. The new heavens and new earth do not have a temple, 'because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple' (Rev 21:22b). Thus, tied up in the goodness of the place is God's presence. It was not coincidental that God gave the people a good land and that he had his temple built there. It is not only that God is creator that made Eden good. God's presence in them make them good and God's presence in them make them good for his people.
In the next post we will look at the theme of 'living God's way' and judgment and how that relationship affects being 'in God's place' and 'in God's holy and loving presence.'

The Gift of a Lifetime
Posted By: Adina Bailey, Co-Founder, TakeThemAMeal.com on Oct 7, 2013
I recently shared in a blog post that my family had a difficult summer. My kind, witty, hardworking father became very sick, and my heart was heavy as we found out he has cancer. Learning to accept his illness has been challenging, and living out of state with my young family has already torn my heart on several days when I wish I could be two places at once.
In September, my family received the gift of a lifetime. My mom recently worked with the photographer, Kathleen Hertel, at a wedding. Kathleen posted on Facebook that she was offering free photo sessions to families who are facing cancer, and she quickly offered to take photos of our family.
This talented and generous woman came to my parents house a few weeks ago to take photographs of my entire family. Kathleen even gave us all of the photos online, and let us know where we could find affordable printing options.
After the photo session, Kathleen shared her personal story with us. Her mother died of cancer a year ago, and the cancer progressed more quickly then they expected. Their family was planning a portrait during Christmas 2012, but they were never able to take the photo. In memory of her mother, Kathleen offers free photo sessions to families like ours.
My extended family hasnt taken many group photos over the years. Getting a family portrait done is always something that we say we will do, but in the end, we never make the time for it. This free photo session from Kathleen really blessed our family. We already treasure the photos. Thank you, Kathleen.

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
Date: Tuesday 26 July 2011
Time: 6.30-8pm
Venue: Old Theatre, Old Building
Speakers: Professor George Selgin, Professor Lord Skidelsky, Duncan Weldon, Dr Jamie Whyte
Chair: Paul Mason
Transmission date of programme: Wednesday 3rd August, 8pm (repeated on Saturday 6th August at 10.15pm) on BBC Radio 4. A podcast of the event will then be made available on the LSE Public Lectures and Events: podcasts and videos page.
How do we get out of the financial mess we're in? Two of the great economic thinkers of the 20th century had sharply contrasting views: John Maynard Keynes believed that governments could create sustainable employment and growth. His contemporary and rival Friedrich Hayek believed that investments have to be based on real savings rather than fiscal stimulus or artificially low interest rates. BBC Radio 4 will be recording a debate between modern day followers of Keynes and Hayek.
George Selgin is Professor of Economics at The Terry College of Business, University of Georgia. Selgin is one of the founders of the Modern Free Banking School, which draws its inspiration from the writings of Hayek on the denationalization of money and choice in currency. He has written extensively on free banking, the private supply of money and deflation. George Selgin is the author of The Theory of Free Banking: Money Supply under Competitive Note Issue (1988), Less Than Zero: The Case for a Falling Price Level in a Growing Economy (1997), and Good Money: Birmingham Button Makers, the Royal Mint, and the Beginnings of Modern Coinage (2008).
Robert Skidelsky is Emeritus Professor of Political Economy at the University of Warwick. His three-volume biography of the economist John Maynard Keynes (1983, 1992, 2000) received numerous prizes, including the Lionel Gelber Prize for International Relations and the Council on Foreign Relations Prize for International Relations. He is the author of The World After Communism (1995) (American edition called The Road from Serfdom). He was made a life peer in 1991, and was elected Fellow of the British Academy in 1994. His latest book is Keynes: The Return of the Master.
Duncan Weldon is a former Bank of England economist and currently works as an economics adviser to an international trade union federation. He has a long standing interest in and admiration for Keynes but also a respect for Hayek. He blogs at Duncan's Economic Blog.
Jamie Whyte was born in New Zealand and educated at the University of Auckland and then the University of Cambridge in England, where he gained a Ph.D. in philosophy. Jamie remained at Cambridge for a further three years, as a fellow of Corpus Christi College and a lecturer in the Philosophy Faculty. During this time he published a number of academic articles on the nature of truth, belief and desire, and won the Analysis Essay Competition for the best article by a philosopher under the age of 30.
Jamie then joined Oliver Wyman & Company, a London-based strategy consulting firm specialising in the financial services industry, for which he still works, as the Head of Research and Publications. Jamie has published two books: Crimes Against Logic (McGraw Hill, Chicago, 2004) and A Load of Blair (Corvo, London, 2005). Jamie is a regular contributor of opinion articles to The Times (of London), the Financial Times and Standpoint magazine. In 2006 he won the Bastiat Prize for journalism.
He is on the advisory board of The Cobden Centre.
The debate will be chaired by Paul Mason, economics editor of BBC 2's Newsnight and author of Meltdown: The End of the Age of Greed.

Found footage as a genre may be on the way out (ok, maybe that's just my wishful thinking), but on it's way, there are a few indie gems to be found.
The Last Showing is one of those films. As per usual, Robert Englund is the perfect choice for a villain. He's charismatic, he's chillingly calm, and it can't ever be denied that the man knows how to play a delicious revenge story to the very last frame.
The story: A couple trapped in a cinema are becoming the unwilling stars in a horror film being captured by CCTV cameras and the handycam of a disgruntled former employee.
Starring Finn Jones (Game of Thrones), Emily Barrington (24: Live Another Day), Keith Allen (The Others, Trainspotting), and our villain, Robert Englund. While most horror films hinge around the leading man and the damsel in distress - The Last Showing is about the villain, and that's what I like about it. Like Saw, Nightmare on Elm Street, and The Collection (to name a few), the action of the film is driven by the villain - someone pulling the strings from behind the curtain, designing every scene and making sure that things play out according to his grand design.
The Last Showing is released in the US on VOD 23 September 2014, with DVD and Blu-Ray premiering 28 October.
Check out the trailer and let me know what you think in the comments!

Chavez said the 35 minute meeting was overall "very positive" and called it "the beginning of a new era in the relationship between the Catholic hierarchy and the Venezuelan Government." Chazev claims to be a Catholic, but he has frequently critized the Church. He was gone so far to call the Church's leadership a "tumor".
Let us pray that Colombia will reverse its decision in order to stop the culture of death from spreading.

I'm experiencing some glitches here … all comments ever made on my site have disappeared from my WordPress Dashboard and when someone tries to fill out the comment form to leave a new comment, well, they can't. My pleas for help on WordPress support forums have yielded no response whatsoever and I am not finding the advice I've read on others' requests for help with similar problems to be helpful at all. So, I'm going to have to think about an overhaul … and that's going to take some time. But I'll be back … and in the meantime, feel free to visit Kali Orexi on Facebook for updates and recipes there.

Netcraft has just published its most recent figures into the world's most reliable infrastructure providers. We are delighted to reveal that one again Bigstep features prominently in the top ten.
This is the seventh time in the past 10 analyses that Bigstep has featured in the prestigious list, powerful recognition for our big data infrastructure.
So what's the secret to our success?
A big data infrastructure
There are two main KPIs for an IT infrastructure – speed and reliability. You can have the world's most powerful computing infrastructure but if it is continually falling down then it is next to useless.
Likewise, 100% uptime is all well and good but if the infrastructure lacks the desired speed and performance, then the value of big data can be impacted. Luckily, our big data infrastructure manages to tick both boxes, speed AND reliability.
The Netcraft top 10 is an independent and authoratitive analysis of the most reliable infrastructure providers. Publishing every month, we have featured in seven of the last 10 editions. In January 2014 we were in 6th place, due to an impressive 0.011% rate of failed requests and a connection time of 0.065ms.
We are rightly proud of our ability to maintain a consistent 100% uptime, especially given that many of our competitors regularly fail to make the Netcraft top 10. Our customers are finding this a compelling proposition, especially when you also factor in our speed, which makes us the most powerful public computing infrastructure in the world.
Speed and performance
Netcraft isn't the only independent analysis that has validated our model. A succession of industry benchmarks have highlighted how hypervisors can restrict performance, wasting much of the power of bare metal servers.
This is why we have removed the hypervisor completely. This frees up an astonishing amount of power – we can offer between 20 and 100 per cent more performance per resource than any virtual cloud – which is essential in ths era of big data.
Performance and reliability – drop us a line if you'd like to hear more about how our infrastructure delivers on both.

Simply put, if the job of a manager is "to make the trains run on time," the job of a leader is to ask where we should lay the tracks - or, perhaps, to suggest that it`s time to close down the railroad and start an airline. Most law firms are reasonably well managed but seriously under led. At a time of dramatic change in the legal market, this deficiency can be fatal. Having an effective leader as managing partner, though certainly not a panacea, can go a long way to helping a firm weather the storm of change going on all around us.

La India: Solidaridad con el pueblo turco y el EMEP
The bomb attack in Ankara which has led to many dead and injured. Nearly 100 people have died and hundreds have been injured. 16 members of the Labour party have died including one member of the Central Committee. It is an attack on the democratic forces in Turkey, in this instance the Labour Party and the Kurdish democrats. Strangely the security forces were not operative prior to the demonstration. It is shocking that the Ankara police impeded the ambulances which were carrying the wounded and directed tear gas and water cannon at the survivors.This attack follows upon the earlier attacks on the democratic movement under the watch of Erdogan and the AKP. The AKP had been unnerved by their loss of a political majority in the last general elections and has overseen the assaults on democracy inside Turkey.
Internationally it has undermined its neighbours in Syria and Kurdistan even as it supports allies itself with ISIS and Islamic reaction. We give our full solidarity with the Turkish and Kurdish comrades who have lost their lives and their families and comrades.
Revolutionary Democracy, India.

Dominican food is prepared like other Central and South America countries with an emphasis on rice, fish and other seafoods, meats or vegetables lightly spiced or mixed with coconut for added seasoning. The food is not heavily spiced.
Dominican specialties vary from region to region, although you can usually find a good representation of them in Santo Domingo restaurants.
The two favorite drinks are rum and beer, particularly tasty in the DR.

Plymouth, MA (PressExposure) July 30, 2011 -- According to Dr. Ramzi W. Saad, Board Certified dermatologist and partner at South Shore Skin Center and Spa, "UV damage can happen at any age, but it begins to occur during childhood. The more frequent the exposure to Ultraviolet A (UVA) and Ultraviolet B (UVB) rays without protection, the greater the risk of developing melanoma or skin cancer as an adult. Parents and caregivers are responsible for protecting the very young, so knowing HOW to best protect them is key."
The dermatologists at South Shore Skin Center and Spa provide the following expert advice to parents and caregivers for protecting the skin of very young children from harmful UVA/UVB rays from the sun (which are present even on cloudy days):
1. Apply a chemical-free sunscreen containing an SPF 30 or higher. Sunscreen may be applied to babies older than six months and toddlers. Look for products that are chemical free and have 10 percent micronized Zinc Oxide such as Blue Lizard Australian Sunscreen Baby SPF 30+ or Solbar Shield SPF 40.
2. Dress young children in sun protective clothing. Covering up the skin with clothing is one of the most effective ways of protecting the sensitive skin of babies and toddlers. Sun hats with wide brims and flaps to shade ears and neck, lightweight long sleeved shirts, sun rompers and swim bodysuits provide good coverage. Brands such as Coolibar offer 50+ UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) clothing. Other sun protective clothing brands may be found online or at retailer REI.
3. Sunglasses help protect the delicate eye area. Skin cancer can develop anywhere on the body, including eyelids. Because sunscreen cannot be applied on or around the eyes, it's important to shield the eye area from UV rays. For young children, opt for rubber or flexible frames and shatterproof lenses. To ensure that lenses provide UVA/UVB protection, look for the statement "100% UVA/UVB protection" label on the lense when making your purchase.
4. Seek shade. Shady areas not only offer some cool relief on a hot summer day, but some protection from UV rays.
5. Block UVA/UVB rays in babies younger than six months. Sunscreen should not be applied to babies younger than six months of age, yet exposed skin is left vulnerable without sunscreen. So, how do you protect your baby's skin from UV rays? Follow tips 2, 3 and 4.
Dr. Saad continued, "As children become more independent, parents and caregivers have a greater challenge of ensuring their tweens and teens wear sunscreen every day, seek shade and wear protective clothing. That is one reason why it is imperative that children learn 'sun safe' habits at a very young age because they will have a better understanding of the importance of protecting their skin as they grow older."
Melanoma is the most common cancer in young white women ages 25-29 and second only to breast cancer in women ages 30-34. New England has the highest concentration of melanoma cases in the United States.
"It cannot be stressed enough that one of the key ways to minimize melanoma mortality is to protect the skin from UVA and UVB rays, starting in early childhood," noted Dr. Saad.
South Shore Skin Center and Spa is located at One Scobee Circle, Unit 3, in Plymouth, Mass. (508) 747-0711 and at 223 Chief Justice Cushing Highway, Suite 202, in Cohasset, Mass. (781) 383-3340. For more information, visit the website at http://www.southshoreskincenter.com.

Falmouth, ME (PressExposure) April 20, 2011 -- For Haley's Tire and Service Centers, a third-generation tire retailer and service center, recycling is a 365/24/7 activity.
At each of its four locations-Biddeford, Bangor, Augusta and Falmouth-Haley's Tire engages in a broad range of recycling activities, most notably tire recycling. Old tires from Haley's are shredded and then mixed with asphalt to create a rubberized asphalt product. This not only helps reduce the cost and environmental impact of disposing of these tires, but offsets the cost in creating asphalt for roadway projects and repairs.
"There's no denying the impact cars have on the environment. It's not that people want to harm the environment but they also have to get to work, school, stores and other places," said Tim Haley, owner of Haley's Tire. "As people who earn our living servicing automobiles, it is incumbent on us to do everything we can to mitigate the impact cars and trucks have."
Some of the other recycling efforts that Haley's participates in include:
Recycling anti-freeze - Haley's takes the anti-freeze taken from vehicles through service repairs and, after the antifreeze has been processed on-site, reuses.
Re- using motor oil - All four Haley's Tire locations are heated via waste oil furnaces. This enables Haley's to heat their shops with the oil emptied during oil changes. That removes the costs and environmental impacts of disposing of used oil.
Battery exchange - Haley's also participates in a battery exchange program. Old batteries are not disposed of at a landfill, but properly recycled.

About Epic Toy Channel:
Epic Toy Channel is a family friendly channel which was created for families and kids. The parents are Justin and Cassi. We started our YouTube journey back in 2010 with our vlog channel called Our Little Planet. We, Cassi and Justin, have two children – Johnny and Zoey. You'll never hear us swear or talk about inappropriate things on Epic Toy Channel. Our first big videos featured Paw Patrol toys as well as toys from Peppa Pig and Jake and the Neverland Pirates and a lot of Surprise Eggs which are similar to the style of Kinder Surprise Eggs as well as Giant Surprises! You'll also see us play with other toys from Nickelodeon shows or Disney Channel / Disney Junior shows. Recently, we have also worked on entertaining a broader audience with shows from Cartoon Network like Teen Titans Go, Powerpuff Girls and Justice League Action. Don't worry though, even though we've introduced new shows and characters we still love the Paw Patrol, Miles from Tomorrowland, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Thomas and Friends and everyones favorite Monster Trucks – Blaze and the Monster Machines. We had a lot of fun doing a few Pokemon Go in real life videos and speaking of "in real life" videos we've made several In Real Life videos with Lego Batman, our Dinosaur costume, Paw Patrol, PJ Masks, Shimmer and Shine and other shows. We are always trying to add special effects, fun music, silly ideas and family fun into each of our videos. You'll also see us play with Disney classics like Dory from Finding Dory and Finding Nemo as well as PJ Masks and Lightning McQueen who is every ones favorite toy from Disney's Cars. Thanks for watching Epic Toy Channel. If you enjoy what we do check out our other channels which include Epic Toy Channel Gaming, Our Little Planet, Johnny and Zoey, Dippity Doo Club and DC Toys which was originally called Teen Titans Toys.

Napster Finds Duet Partner in … BMG?
Score one for the mp3. BMG parent Bertelsmann AG, one of the biggest record companies embroiled in the copyright-infringement lawsuit against Napster, has switched sides and formed an alliance with the song-swapping service.
The label is dropping its suit and plans to become part owner of Napster, creating a copyright-friendly version that will reportedly charge a monthly membership fee of around $4.95 to pay royalties. The Internet service is currently free and attracts some 38 million users.
"Napster has pointed the way for a new direction for music distribution, and we believe it will form the basis of important and exciting new business models for the future of the music industry," said Bertelsmann Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Thomas Middelhoff in a statement.
Middelhoff says he has urged other labels to join the service. The BMG company's many labels feature artists such as Christina Aguilera, TLC, Pink, Dave Matthews Band, Santana and Puff Daddy.
Company officials at a press conference say BMG will not drop its lawsuit against Napster until the new version of the service is implemented. Napster will put the new system in place as soon as possible, according to Napster CEO Hank Barry.
Barry also emphasized that Napster will continue to allow users to trade music files that they created on their own from CDs.
Meanwhile, Napster enemies Metallica and Dr. Dre plan to continue pursuing their own lawsuits, according to the artists' lawyer Howard King.
"[A new subscription service] doesn't mean we forgive and forget the past infringements," King said. According to MTV News, King and other labels said they were cautiously optimistic about plans by Napster and Bertelsmann, while others questioned whether the plan will properly compensate musicians.

I'm not leaving RTE, says Tubridy after station chief's pay ultimatum
'Late Late Show' host Ryan Tubridy spoke out last night to say he intended to stay working with RTE and that he would be amenable to any pay cut the broadcaster made to his salary.
He told the Irish Independent: "I'm going nowhere. I won't be going to any of RTE's competitors. I am staying with the station."
Tubridy was speaking as RTE refused to publish details of its stars' salaries despite saying it would do so three months ago.
It means the figures currently in the public domain -- from 2008 -- are out of date and do not take account of voluntary pay cuts accepted by top presenters two years ago, or changes to their contracts.
The failure to publish the figures comes after RTE bosses warned its stars that they would have to accept a pay cut -- or leave.
Tubridy acknowledged RTE's financial situation and how this would affect his future earnings.
"I realise everything has changed and I certainly won't be fighting a cutback of any sort. I know how the salary climate has changed," he said.
The national broadcaster used to publish the salaries of its highest earners two years later to protect the "commercially sensitive information".
It has previously said that it was not legally required to provide such information, but was doing so in the interests of transparency. However, it has now not published any figures for more than two years.
In July, a spokesman told the Irish Independent that stars' earnings for 2009 would be released "in the coming weeks".
The station yesterday said the figures were being audited and would be released shortly. An exact date could not be given.
When released, the figures are expected to be at least 10pc lower than the previous year following a voluntary pay cut accepted by the top earners.
Contracted stars, who include Pat Kenny and Marian Finucane, accepted cuts of at least 10pc while salaried staff, such as Derek Mooney and Sean O'Rourke, had their pay cut by up to 12.5pc.
RTE is now seeking a 30pc pay cut on 2008 rates from its highest-earning presenters, although this will include the 10pc cut already taken.
Miriam O'Callaghan has also already agreed to the new cut. Efforts to contact some of the other big names yesterday were unsuccessful.
The cut will be applied as presenters' contracts come up for renewal between now and the end of 2013. Contracts can last from one to five years and it is understood that those of Tubridy, Finucane and Joe Duffy are to be reviewed in the near future.
Mr Curran issued a public ultimatum on Monday to his top stars telling them if they didn't accept the new cut, they could leave the station.
Meanwhile, TV3 yesterday said it would not be matching RTE's pay rates, pointing out that the independent sector "could never afford" it.
Andrew Hanlon, TV3's director of news, said that for too long RTE had "overpaid" its presenters and this was not sustainable, particularly when there was no rival broadcaster trying to lure their talent away.

Elders and leaders of South-South, the geo-political zone of President Goodluck Jonathan, weekend, called on the president to speed up development of the zone, lamenting that since his assumption of office, the people have not received "the normal fruits of their son being in power".
The people at a general meeting of the South-South Peoples Assembly, SSPA, in Warri, Delta State, also constituted four committees to come up with the position of the people on the 1999 Constitution Amendment, Petroleum Industry Bill, Bakassi/Boundary Dispute on Oil Wells and Underhand Sale of Oil Blocs by oil multinational, Shell Petroleum Development Company, SPDC.
In communiqué jointly signed by the national leader of the zone and former Federal Minister of Information, Chief Edwin Clark, national chair and secretary of SSPA first civilian governor of Edo state, Chief John Odigie –Oyegun and one-time Commissioner in Bayelsa state, Chief Ayakeme Whisky respectively, said, "By principle of affirmative action, it owes the people of the South South zone the sacred duty of economic empowerment, especially through the petroleum industry, which derives mainly from the zone with all its attendant hazardous effects".
According to the communiqué, "Contrary to the views of some misguided Nigerians, President Goodluck Jonathan, since his assumption of office, in trying to satisfy the totality of his Nigerian constituency, had not given to the South South zone the normal fruits of their son being in power, such that even the East – West road which is the route for the haulage of heavy duty equipment and petroleum products on daily basis to service the oil and gas industry has not gotten any priority attention".
Specifically, the zone called on the government of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to, as a matter of urgency, ensure the speedy completion of the East – West Warri- Port Harcourt-Uyo-Calabar road, which has not only become impassable but currently constitutes a death-trap; and take appropriate steps to remediate our badly damaged ecology and environment by fully implementing the report of the Technical Committee on the Niger Delta.
They also urged the Federal Government to urgently demand an extension of the October 10, 2012 deadline for the completion of the handing over of the Bakassi to the Cameroons to enable the National Assembly consider and ratify the Green Tree Agreement.
The leaders, however, resolved, "To continue to build a united, cohesive and resolute South South family."
They affirmed and solidified their "total, unalloyed and irrevocable support for President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, and his government" and consequently passed a vote of confidence in him for "his commitment to putting Nigeria on the path of sustainable growth as clearly noticed in the improved electricity supply in the country".
They also urged President Goodluck Jonathan "to exercise his presidential powers without compromise for the growth and development of all segments of Nigeria".
On the onshore/offshore dichotomy, they called on all Nigerians "broaching the onshore/offshore dichotomy, to in the interest of national peace, amity and cohesion jettison such provocative comments".

After 16 years at the helm of Selectron, Emmanuel Hannart is hands over the managerial reins to Thierry Martin.
Mr. Thierry Martin has many years of experience in cybersecurity and has already been CEO of medium-sized companies.
Emmanuel Hannart will support Thierry Martin in an advisory capacity as he moves into the new CEO position and during the integration into Knorr-Bremse's organizational structure.

After 20 years with many great successes, Bernd Riedel is now moving to the position of a consultant for Selectron.
The new situation offers the possibility of adapting the enterprise organization. This is in order to continue meeting our customers' expectations in full.

For the second time, the Selectron team in China exhibited on the Knorr-Bremse Asia stand at the UrTran 2017 show, featuring the topics of rail vehicle control technology (TCMS) and software tools for various applications.
The Russian GOST market also shows how much users benefit from the Selectron product portfolio: With flexible application possibilities, easy to integrate and optimally matched components. These are qualified for the extremely harsh climatic environment according to GOST regulations

The Turkish manufacturer Durmazlar successfully commissioned LRVs for operation in the Municipality of Kocaeli and Izmit. The trams are controlled by a Selectron TCMS.
The Danhai district in New Taipei City (Taiwan) will get a new tram for the "Green Mountain Line" in 2018.
Selectron will deliver the TCMS solution for these vehicles.
The Test Integration department at Selectron develops test equipment according to specific requirements. It supports other departments and external suppliers in creating test requirements or the development of new test devices.
These test devices can be used for a new development, validation or for general analysis purposes.
Yves Niffeler (left) and Louis Bärtschiger (right) have been reinforcing the technical support for our customers since 2 August 2017.
"Participate, have fun, stay healthy": the national campaign used this slogan to encourage commuters to take to their bikes in May and June and do something for the environment.
The Selectron team is growing and growing. To take account of these circumstances, it has become necessary to expand the buildings in Lyss as well.
Rhomberg Sersa Rail Group together with Amey UK has won an outline contract for switch conversion in the UK from 2014 to 2024. An enormously important part of this order is the introduction of new high-performance machines for conversion work relating to the tracks. Sersa Maschineller Gleisbau AG (SMG) purchased the ITC312.BL4 excavating machine from ITC SA, and developed significant components for it in-house together with subsuppliers. Selectron was able to supply the entire vehicle control system, and also developed the application software in close cooperation with SMG.
In early 2017, the Puebla tram-train in Mexico went into operation successfully. Two Citylink light rail vehicles were built by Stadler Rail Valencia in Spain and now provide excellent transportation service.
Right on schedule for the start of transport operations between Germany and the Netherlands, Stadler received the permit for electric multiple units of the FLIRT type. They will be used on the lines of the Lower Rheine network.
SIM1131 is the new simulation environment that allows IEC61131-3 application programs programmed and compiled on a Windows PC to be run and tested independently from the hardware. This offers the programmer of the vehicle software advantages in terms of flexibility during testing and troubleshooting.
As a means of increasing customer satisfaction on an ongoing basis, especially in the launch phase, the Validation Team has been built up to its current total of six employees over recent years.
Day-in, day-out, the team confronts the challenges posed by the large variety of innovative and complex products that Selectron is developing on a continuous basis.

The 2016 anniversary year ended, once again, with new sales records. Growth – as well as the strategic integration with the Knorr-Bremse Group – continues.
Last year, handover took place of the first modernized metro trains of a sizable contract with the Metro Budapest by the company Metrowagonmash from Russia.
The wheel slide protection system used in the Metro trains WSP 800 V04 is based on Selectron's device family MAS 83x/73x.

The company Direct Rail Services operates a fleet of ten new Class 88 locomotives from Stadler Rail in the UK. For professionally equipping these locomotives, the TCMS belongs to Selectron.
The Class 88 Dual can be driven either electrically or with diesel engines. It is a development of the Class 68 platform and is used for the transport of passengers or goods.

Selectron is on the way to take more and more of a significant position within Knorr-Bremse. With their profound know-how on the subject of TCMS, Selectron contributes a lot to improving the "total costs of ownership" and "life-cycle costs" of a train or a fleet.
In order to broaden the knowledge of the functions of a train within the Knorr-Bremse Group, training is being planned with the aim of improving Knorr-Bremse's customer support, offering innovative solutions, and meeting the needs of train manufacturers and operators.

Dayton to look into oil safety
ST. PAUL — Gov. Mark Dayton said Tuesday he will ask for a report about whether state regulators have done enough to protect Minnesotans from oil spills.
In a wide-ranging session with reporters, he said in response to a Forum News Service question: "I can't say what deficiencies there are. ... We want to maximize safety and protection"
When the news service asked if he had checked on how Minnesota deals with oil pipeline, rail and truck safety in light of a North Dakota 20,600-barrel oil pipeline spill late last month, he said that he had not.
"That's a good idea," he quickly added. "I will do so."
