CRUX Torpedo 700 Waterproof Down Sleeping Bagight. They have been made with the best down fill waterproof/breathable fabrics and construction techniques available. Although very expensive their 20–30 year life expectancy (even with heavy use) means they are the best investment you could ever make in an outdoor product.
There is no better insulator than down. Unparalleled in its ability to trap air incredibly light and highly compressible down is unbeatable but for one drawback – it must be kept dry. A waterproof down sleeping bag is therefore essential for alpinism.
We use the highest grade of Polish goose down commercially and consistently available. Our sleeping-bag shells are made from eVent fabric – the most breathable and waterproof fabric we know. Inside the bag the baffles containing the down are welded to the inner face of the shell avoiding all stitched seams. For the zip – like stitching a potential area of water ingress – we use the highly water-resistant Riri Aquazip to ensure that the bag is as waterproof as humanly possible.
Crux Torpedo sleeping bags are available in a choice of three fill weights: the 700 is the bag for the active mountaineer climbing winter alpine routes and peaks around 6000 metres in South America and the Greater Ranges.
|eVent Waterproof Fabrics use Direct Venting Technology - a proprietary and patented waterproof membrane allows millions of tiny pores to breathe at their full potential. Sweat vents directly to the outside of the fabric in one easy step. Click Logo to read more..
Our lightest -4C rated sleeping bags weigh 600-800grams. The RAB Alpine 400 is a kilogram and has an Endurance outer which adds a degree of water resistance. The Torpedo 700 weighs a lot more than this but has a lot more down in it and is waterproof.
We think the rating seems very conservative for the Crux as the additional down will make a difference, and in our opinion the bag seems much warmer than other bags with similar ratings. But in any case the real story is the eVent shell which makes the bag a great choice for altitude as well as for tarp camping where a conventional bag could so easily get wet.
The eVent shell is highly breathable so any concerns you may have about being damp in the morning because of a build up of condensation are unfounded. Having used the bag, we have not experienced any problems at all.
Another reason for choosing the Torpedo over other bags could be its durability and hence longevity. The eVent fabric is much more wear resistant than the superlight shell fabrics used on ultralight bags and the chunky RiRi zipper ensure a Torpedo will go the distance. If you need an tough bag for a long trip the Crux Torpedo range seems to have been designed with this in mind.
We sell a lot of water resistant sleeping bag covers. If you camp out a lot in the UK under a tarp then the Torpedo bags could be your Nirvana and you can save the cash you would have spent on a cover!

In general, a wedding is a ceremony uniting two people together, and this in itself is a beautiful thing. This also creates new family relationships, in-laws, etc. But I love a wedding that unites nuclear families to create a new immediate family, and when there is such obvious joy about this new created family from all parties. This wedding is just that. The joy is pouring out of the bride and groom, their children, and their guests, and the reception is truly a huge celebration of this, complete with gorgeous flickering candlelight, stunning orchids, and dazzling black and white accents with pops of purple. Add in the crowd that won't stop dancing and activities for the kiddos and we've got a spectacular party for an even more spectacular new family.
From the Photographer:
We had a beautiful sunny day for Susan and Shane's wedding at the Waldorf Astoria Chicago. The natural and bright lighting in Susan's suite was perfect for her, her sister, and her mother to get ready in. With everyone in great spirits it was also a perfect space to toast with some champagne to the momentous occasion and gorgeous weather. Getting to know Susan and Shane's family was a blast, but being there to see their 4 children witness their parent's vows definitely tugged at the heart strings a little. Shane and Susan then danced the night away in a beautifully candle lit room surrounded by best friends, loving family, and cake fueled kids.

Oh my God, YES!!!! Sometimes, I just want to snap back at them and tell them to not ask such stupid questions. Everyone knows how to count to 10, 20, or maybe even 30! But this is annoying. It really is. I wish people wouldn't troll around online. . . . It bothers me greatly.
Yes, I do think that's ridiculous!
Oh yes. They know how to count so why ask online when they went to elementary school?
You might have to contact the Facebook Help center.

Yes. For kissing a girl two years older than me in the 3rd grade. Also for running away at the age of 6.
Oh . . . No.
UPDATED ANSWER: Well, yes sometimes but not all the time.
18. You should know your multiplication facts by now
I'm NOT answering that question. You know what it is.
Okay Jordan, I think you know what 6 x 3 is if you've passed elementary and middle school. But if you truly want the answer the answer is 18.
I think that was a trick question. The answer is 18

"Learning about Adverbs"
We left France on Wednesday and yesterday we started
our Italian trip. At first my parents intended to spend all
the time in Rome. However, they then decided to visit
Naples and the surrounding area first and go to Rome
after that.
Earlier today, we went to see the remains at Pompeii
and Herculaneum. They were buried when the volcano
Mount Vesuvius all of a sudden erupted in 79 AD. I was in
a state of excitement all that night. I was extremely anxious
to see such famous remains.
Adverbs usually express a relation of place, time,
manner, number or degree with the verb.
express a relation of PLACE;
here, there, inside, outside, everywhere, southward
after, before, since, already, soon, then, now
hard, easily, loudly, quickly, silently, happily, sadly
they express a relation of NUMBER;
always, never, seldom, frequently, once, twice, often
EXTENT?' they express a relation of DEGREE;
almost, also, only, very, enough, rather, too
yes, no, not, certainly, probably, perhaps
how, why, where, when
(The adverb very modifies the adjective popular)
(The adverb right modifies the preposition on)
(The adverb nearly modifies phrase on the top of the hill.)
Ex. – Fortunately,I remembered in time who he was.
"Adverb and Adverbial" Adverbial = a word or group of words function as an adverb.
Ex.- He will come soon. (adverb) He will come in a few days. (adverbial)
He will come after he finished his work.(adverbial)
adverb can go. They are called front, mid and end position adverb.
After verb when it modified verb:
-The old woman walks slowly.
Before adjective when it modified adjective:
- Sam is very strong.
Before adverb when it modified adverb:
- The train is very fast.
Before sentence when it modified sentence:

sock review
I have finally found the perfect work sock. It is the little things like socks that can make a big difference when you are on your feet for ten hour work days. The sock fits securely giving my feet more stability in the sneaker. My feet really do stay dry and therefore they feel cooler. The extra cushioning really does help with the beating that my feet take all day.
Good design tennis socks
They're comfortable and breathable in key places.The only thing I don't like is getting them on as they're "tubes".
very comfortable socks
Needed some new tennis socks and these were on clearance - a great deal! They are very comfortable and actually marked right or left - who knew! Did have to send back 1 package because of small holes in socks
Formotion socks the best
Great comfortable sock
Never imagined I could get excited over a pair of socks but the folks at Adidas have engineered a clothing marvel. They are incredibly comfortable, help your feet breathe and most of all make an old pair of tennis shoes wear like new. Amazing.

Original Thai CuisineBig Island, Hawaii
This place didn't look too promising from outside, but there were already people queueing to get in, and there aren't many other options in the area, so we went in. We were glad we did. The food was great. Nothing out of the ordinary, just good Thai restaurant food. Our waitress knew immediately which menu items were vegan, which is always a good sign. They'll also make things as spicy (or not) as you like.
Note that their opening hours (which I got from Yelp) say they're open from 11am-9pm, but we were there shortly before 6pm and they were closed and about to open for dinner.

FOUR of University's grand final cast at Ballymore are flying off to join the Wallabies, yet Luke Morahan, the premiership winner who could become the strong-running 95kg solution to Australia's dearth of big outside centres, is staying at home.
The Reds winger-fullback is not yet the finished article as a No.13 yet the potential of the package for 2013 is formidable, as he showed in Uni's imposing 46-20 triumph over fancied Sunnybank in the Premier Rugby decider.
Plaudits flew for the try-creating and goalkicking (seven from nine) of Uni flyhalf Mike Harris, but the midfield Wallaby shovelled praise on Morahan for forcing Sunnybank to unsuccessfully tailor a game plan to try to contain him.
When the Sunnybank defence rushed to force Harris back inside to cut off Morahan's ball supply, he calmly floated cut-out balls over the top to Morahan, who freed wingers Elliott Hagen and stutter-stepping Jamie-Jerry Taulagi for their try-jinks.
"I was trying to hit Moz all day. He's just a formidable figure when he runs," Harris said of the centre who torched Brothers with three tries in the major semi-final.
It was a quality showing from Uni, who were superior in their patience with the ball and their pressuring with smart kicks.
Even at the scrum where the bulkier Dragons pack were tipped to dominate, Uni tighthead prop Sam Cochrane was superb and put a broad smile on the craggy face of proud club president Bruce Brown, the former Wallaby front-rower.
Uni had a three-try jump to 24-3 by the 20th minute. It was back to 24-13 by halftime, but the grand final was settled shortly after when impressive halfback Will Thompson darted and put high work-rate flanker Curtis Browning over.
Lock Tim Buchanan won the Tony Shaw Medal as the grand final's best.
Auckland's Taulagi, 19, lobbed unannounced at Uni in June. He won two premierships in just over two hours yesterday as starting fullback in a Colts premiership and the classy final tryscorer in the main game who gave a try salute to the Red Heavies fans on the hill in the sun.
Replacement Uni fullback Will Tuffley saluted the late Halley Appleby, the young hooker who died in a tackle last year and was honoured in player wristbands inscribed "Live every day as if it was your last".
"He has absolutely changed my life for ever. I smile a bit more like Hal every day," Tuffley said.
Browning, 18, is a kid with a Super Rugby future, while Sunnybank centre Rex Tapuai may be 28 but he too is still good enough to have one.
UNIVERSITY 46 (E Hagen 2, M Arvier, C Browning, W Thompson, JJ Taulagi tries; M Harris 5 con, 2 pen) d SUNNYBANK 20 (R Tapuai, B Tapuai tries; D Taumata conv, 2 pen goal, M Lucas con)

The superior thriller of 2014, Gone Girl is a dark, twisty, psychological study of the worst seven-year itch imaginable. Abduction, sex, murder and revenge; trial-by-media and satire on America's dark heart, this one has it all.
Gone Girl will have you on the edge of your seat for the first hour, until the biggest plot turn of the decade hits you for six; then it's a tense white-water ride into a twisting canyon in which every scene threatens disaster for the lead characters.
Add career-defining performances from Ben Affleck (Armageddon, The Town) and Rosamund Pike (Jack Reacher, The World's End) to a script that is impossible to second guess, and Gone Girl is a genuine must-see. Continue Reading

NCI Drug Dictionary
The NCI Drug Dictionary contains technical definitions and synonyms for drugs/agents used to treat patients with cancer or conditions related to cancer. Each drug entry includes links to check for clinical trials listed in NCI's List of Cancer Clinical Trials.
- PEG-3350/sodium sulfate/sodium chloride/potassium chloride/sodium ascorbate/ascorbic acid-based laxative
A preparation containing the nonabsorbable polymer polyethylene glycol (PEG or macrogol) 3350 and sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid with laxative activity. Upon oral administration, the PEG-3350, sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid-based laxative promotes the retention of water in the bowel. This increases the water content of stool, which results in increased gastrointestinal motility and evacuation of colonic contents. This results in a complete cleansing of the colon. Compared to the 4 liter PEG-3350-based preparations, this PEG-based laxative is a low volume (2 liter) preparation, which improves patients' tolerance. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)

This proposal, from a group of established investigators at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), is for the purchase of an LC/MS/MS equipment, fully dedicated to the analysis of various types of lipids and lipid-derived second messengers involved in pathobiology of several human disorders and diseases. Funds are requested for the purchase of an AB Sciex QTRAP 5500 mass spectrometer coupled to an Agilent HPLC system. Participants in this application include13 major users and 8 minor users who are active NIH-supported investigators, supported by about 50 R01 or P01 projects, of which at least 30 will be directly benefited by the instrument. These investigators are engaged in several basic and clinically relevant studies, including cell signaling pathways, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, and pulmonary and respiratory disorders, and are in need of a dedicated instrument to characterize and quantify various molecular species of phospholipids, sphingolipids, and neutral lipids in tissues, plasma, biological fluids and cultured cells. Further development of new and more sensitive measurement of bioactive lipids requires on-site availability of state-of-the-art mass spectrometer. The LC/MS instruments that are currently available and in operation at UIC are either not suitable for this purpose, or being utilized fully for other types of analyses, such as proteins, peptides and drug metabolites. Therefore, availability of a state-of-the-art dedicated equipment for analysis of various types of lipids, lipd-derived second messengers and bioactive phospho- and sphingo-lipids will enable the currently NIH funded and non-funded investigators to take advantage of the novel lipidomic methods recently developed by the UIC faculty, as well as by others, towards enhancing their productivity and ability to conduct cutting edge translational research.
Lipids are an important and diverse group of fat molecules that are implicated in several human diseases, including heart and lung diseases, obesity, cancer, diabetes, and inflammatory diseases. The investigators in this application are engaged in several clinically relevant projects that require sophisticated lipid analysis. The knowledge gained from these studies could provide valuable tools for improved diagnosis and treatment of several of the above diseases.

I'm surprised. This sound like something California would do, not NY.

I don't buy dogs from pet shops and you shouldn't either. More than 90% of pet shop puppies come from puppy mills and backyard breeders, and, more often than not, are terribly mistreated. If you buy one of these cute little pups you are contributing to the practice. I will admit, however, that from time to time, you hear of something nice being done to protect these poor creatures from the evils of man. Here is the story:
Pet stores in New York City's West Village have discovered an unlikely downside of keeping shop in an area particularly dense with bars—drunk puppy buying, in the words of DNA Info. Yes, the pups playing in shop windows are apparently just too adorable for inebriated people to pass up. At least two such shops have banned sales to tipsy customers as a result, for the good of the pooches. "We have to tell them to come back the next day and most of the time they never come back," says one owner.

I'm surprised. This sound like something California would do, not NY.

Is Every Concussion A Children Head Injury ?
Concussion Head Injury
Concussion and traumatic brain injuries affect the way that the brain functions and can lead to long-term impairment. This is especially true for children. As we head into the summer season, kids will start playing of soccer and baseball and will be eager to ride their bikes, scooters and skateboard. With kids on the move, it is important to know the signs of a concussion and how to treat it. A concussion is caused when a child gets a bump, blow or jolt to the head.
Recognize a concussion
Concussions can also be caused by a hit to the body, that causes the head to move back and forth quickly. These sudden, sharp movements can cause the brain to jar or twist in the skull creating chemical changes in the brain and damages to the brain cells, affecting the way they think and remember. The best defense against a head injury or brain injury is to ensure that children always wear the right equipment. Not surprisingly, many concussions happen when the child is not playing team sports in a formal way, but is just playing at home or with friends without their helmets or protective gear. They may be just taking their bike around the block and not feel a need to put on a helmet for a short ride. These are the times that kids must be reminded to always wear a helmet for safety.
Symptoms of a concussion
If your child does suffer a bump to the head, make sure you know that symptoms. A person does not need to be knocked out or to lose consciousness to have a concussion. A child suffering a concussion could seem confused, have a slow reaction time and have difficulty concentrating. Look for headaches, nausea, dizziness and changes in sight. Should you see any of these signs, have your child stop playing right away and don't leave him alone. Take him to the hospital right away or call 911.
Compensation for Brain Injury and Polytrauma
Traumatic Brain Injury and Polytrauma
As Ottawa personal injury lawyers we see many people suffering from traumatic brain injuries as a result of motor vehicle collisions, trip and falls, medical malpractice, product malfunction, and other incidents. The effects of a brain injury are complex and vary from person to person. Sadly, a brain injury can change your life and livelihood, which is why it is so important to get the right supportive team around you immediately following an accident.
Accident Scenario
Our Ottawa personal injury lawyers assisted a pleasant teenager who suffered a traumatic brain injury and other catastrophic injuries as a result of a very serious motor vehicle collision. She was a passenger in a vehicle that was turning left at an intersection when it was hit by a truck travelling through the intersection. Ordinarily, in this situation, a left-turning vehicle is considered 100% at fault (i.e. liable) meaning that only the left-turning vehicle's insurance company is responsible for compensating the injured persons. There are, however, certain exceptions to this general rule.
How our Ottawa Injury Lawyers Proceeded
This was a very serious collision where several occupants in the left-turning vehicle suffered serious injuries. It was very likely that the occupants' claims combined would exceed the at-fault driver's $2,000,000 insurance policy. In other words, the left-turning driver's $2,000,000 policy was insufficient to compensate the injured parties. The only other way to obtain additional insurance funds was to argue that the truck driving straight through the intersection was liable for the accident. This, as noted, is not an easy task as courts often hold that vehicles with a right of way, such as the truck in this case, are not liable for collisions. Our Ottawa injury lawyers however retained an expert in motor vehicle accident reconstruction and analysis, who examined several key witnesses, obtained crucial documents from police and paramedics, and by used leading edge investigative techniques, among other things. Consequently with this information, our personal injury team was able to attach liability to the driver of the truck. Accordingly, our Ottawa personal injury lawyers were able obtain compensation from the driver of the truck as well. This opened up the amount of funds and compensation available to our client.
Compensation For Traumatic Brain Injury and Polytrauma
Our Ottawa lawyers ultimately settled her tort claim for approximately $1,500,000 which will undoubtedly assist her in the future. She also has available to her in the future $1,000,000 in medical and rehabilitation benefits and $1,000,000 for attendant care benefits.
$3, 500 000 is a lot of money; however this is money that is much needed in this young person's life and throughout the rest of her life. Our Ottawa injury lawyers were pleased to help her get much needed compensation and the proper medical supports in place.
* Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results and that the amount recovered and other litigation outcomes will vary according to the facts in individual cases.

Winter Tobogganing in Ottawa. What you need to teach your children…
Winter tobogganing in Ottawa ….
Most schools are out tomorrow for the holidays and that means children will be looking for activities. What's on the top of my3 kid's list? Tobogganing ! Ottawa has an abundance of hills open for tobogganing. While it's a great sport and very fun, it is also a sport that has it's fair share of serious injuries. Each year hundreds of people are injured and many require medical attention. The City of Ottawa has a wealth of information related to tobogganing in Ottawa. Please check out their website.
Youth between the ages of 5-9 make up for 40 % of toboggan related injuries in Canada. A number of these injuries result in concussions, internal injuries or broken bones. (Statistics: Canadian Hospital's Injury Reporting Prevention Program). Most injuries are caused by hitting another object such as a tree, a rock, a sign or from being thrown from the toboggan with force.
We are not trying to be alarmists, we simply want to remind everyone that tobogganing can be enjoyed; however, a few safety steps can be put in place before your children head off to the hills.
We've scoured various websites and here are a few suggestions on how to try as much as possible to prevent injuries.
Help keep your tobogganing safe by….
- Checking weather conditions before you head out.
- Checking the physical condition of the hill to make sure it is safe. Check for hazards.
- Make sure the slope of the hill isn't too steep or fast.
- Do not toboggan in dark areas where visibility is limited.
- Always wear a CSA approved helmet.
- Always sit facing forward.
- Keep your hands, arms and legs inside the toboggan and do not use your arms to break.
- Do not wear scarfs and make sure all strings on hats and mits are tied up. Any loose clothing could catch and become a hazard.
- When tobogganing , go one at a time, do not follow closely behind another toboggan.
- Children under the age of 5 should not be on a toboggan by themselves as they cannot control it.
- Teach your children that once they reach the bottom of the hill, they must quickly and carefully get to the side and be watching for oncoming sledders.
- Teach your children to safely climb back up the hill on the sides.
Have a great, safe holiday season and have fun tobogganing !

Ottawa accident Richmond road and Golden leaves woman critical head injuries in Ottawa Hospital Trauma Unit and another with serious chest injuries.
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyers David Hollingsworth . It was reported in an Ottawa newspaper that a woman in her 20s remains in critical condition with serious head injuries after a two-vehicle accident yesterday morning in Ottawa at about 10 a.m. at Richmond Road and Golden Avenue. Ottawa rescue crews were quick to arrive at the accident scene and rushed her to the o the Ottawa Hospital trauma unit.
The driver of the other vehicle was a woman in her 60s . She suffered serious chest and abdomen injuries and is thankfully in stable condition.
I hope both women have a full recovery and my thoughts are with them and their families at this stressful time. I hope to soon be able to report some better news on their conditions.
Concussion symptoms and treatment for concussions. Did you know a concussion can last for up to 2 years ?
Ottawa Brain Injury Lawyers David Hollingsworth .
The Ottawa Citizen reported on a study recently done through CHEO and Dr Vassilyadi that looked at the after effects of concussions in children. It described a story of a boy named Clayton Carter who suffered a traumatic brain injury while riding an ATV and was able to return to hockey, school and a regular life within four months. There are many remarkable things about Clayton's story. Firstly the fact that he was so severely injured and could have died and was then rushed by helicopter to CHEO and had his brain and skull operated on. He survived and had an amazing recovery in a very short time frame. Claydon's speedy recovery with a severe head injury is remarkable.
Dr. Vassilyadi reported to the Ottawa Citizen that Clayton's recovery was better than many children who suffer a concussion. Dr Vassilyadi is just finishing a study that looks at youths between 11 and 17 who have had a sports-related concussion and still have symptoms at least three months later. In the Ottawa area there have been close to 60 patients who are still suffering from their concussion 3 months later.
There are many more who suffer concussions. In fact, close to 900 children and youth are rushed to CHEO's emergency department yearly with a suspected concussion. These symptoms include headaches, dizziness, nausea, depression, sleeping too much or not enough and declining performance at school. In general, close to 90 % of concussions clear up within 10 days of the impact. Dr. Vassilyadi and his team at CHEO noted that not all parents are aware of the symptoms of concussions, so it's tough to track what your child may be going through. Often times, parents, coaches and teachers don't equate a child's change in academic performance to a concussion but Dr. Vassilyadi noted that it's entirely possible. The emotional, social and cognitive symptoms are tough to pick up on and often persist over three months for up to 2 years. CHEO conducted a research project last year "The Concussion Research Project" and found that young patients described their quality of life at almost the same level as undergoing chemotherapy. Dr. Vassilyadi also noted that there is a common misconception that there has to be a loss of consciousness in a concussion and this is simply not true. Early recognition is key to properly treating a concussion.
Unfortunately the treatment for a concussion isn't always obvious either. Nutrition and rehydration are critical and in most rest, even if that means not returning to school or work. After a head injury, the brain needs to rest and mental stress needs to be avoided. This means eliminating video games, television, reading, texting and getting plenty of rest.
Concussion symptoms and concussion treatments are very tough to recognize which is why concussions still remain a tricky area for parents, coaches and teachers. It's critically important to be aware of your child's moods, fatigue, and overall feelings and "When in doubt, sit them out,". It's not worth the risk because a second or third head injury will be worse. Dr. Vassilyadi is speaking to physicians on Monday night about a new clinic to be opened this fall by Pro Physio & Sports Medicine Centres, which will draw on the services of sports physicians, a neuropsychologist and physiotherapists specifically trained to assess and treat concussions. The owner of the clinics, Mr. Salib focused on concussions because of the large need to properly treat concussions .
As an Ottawa personal injury lawyer with many clients who are suffering from concussions and brain injuries, I am so thankful that our community is developing more resources that relate to concussions and head injuries. I have many clients who are suffering so severely from a concussion, they are unable to return to work, be comfortable around their families for extended lengths of time and their concussion has changed their lives and the lives of their families. The more research and resources that help us with concussion treatments the better, I say !
Robert Wein and the Conquer Acquired Brain Injury Walk..an inspiration for us all..
Conquer Acquired Brain Injury Walk
There aren't many people who can forget the terrible accident that injured 5 cyclists in Kanata. Well, I can share something wonderful that has occurred as a result of that accident: The Conquer Acquired Brain Injury Walk in Ottawa organised by Robert Wein. Robert Wein has been such an inspiration to many after he was hit when he was cycling on March Road in Kanata on July 19, 2009 . Robert suffered serious personal injuries including a serious brain injury. Originally, doctors said he had only a 50% chance of surviving, and would not likely walk or cycle again. Robert beat those odds and has been on the road to recovery ever since. His story is an incredible table of someone not giving up and persevering through life's challenges.
I had the pleasure of meeting Robert shortly after his accident and was so impressed with his determination. Sure enough, Robert Wein has been steadily progressing ever since and has even started riding again. He rides a recumbent three-wheeler. His hard work and determination is paying off. He regularly sees a personal trainer , physiotherapist and is constantly working on his recovery with a goal to walk without the walker one day. The way things are going for Robert, I bet he will.
Today he organised and is leading 130 people in a two-kilometre walk at Andrew Haydon Park. The walk is called Conquer Acquired Brain Injury Walk and the money raised will support Pathways to Independence, an organization which provides housing and programs to those with brain injuries.
I admire Robert Wein and his determination. What an inspiration to not only people with a brain injury but to everyone ! Good luck today to Robert and everyone participating in what is sure to be an excellent annual event: the Conquer Acquired Brain Injury Walk.

Ottawa injury lawyer discusses concussions in children and the signs, symptoms of a concussion.
Ottawa Head Injury Lawyer on concussions in children.
A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury. With spring sports in full force, the incidence of child concussions is on the rise. Head injuries in athletes during mainly sports; however children can also suffer serious concussions from colliding with another child during play, car accidents and bicycle accidents and even minor falls. Typically children can recover from a concussion within a week or two without lasting health problems if they treat the concussion in a timely manner and properly by following certain precautions and taking a break from activities.
The severity of a concussion can be determined by how long signs and symptoms can last and therefore are only known when recovery has taken place. The longer the symptoms persist, the more severe the concussions. More severe concussions or undiagnosed concussions can cause brain damage or disability.
Treating a concussion is difficult and vague. First and foremost, if you have a concussion or you think your child may have a concussion, you need to seek professional medical help immediately. One thing for sure is to REST. Anyone suffering a concussion needs to remove themselves of any activities that could cause stress on the brain and try to avoid any sudden movements, impacts etc.
We know that the brain is made of soft tissue and is surrounded by spinal fluid, which is protected by our skulls. Our brains move around inside our skulls and can bang against our skulls. When the brain bangs against our skulls, for example, due to a fall on a sidewalk or a whiplash-type of injury — it can be bruised, blood vessels are torn, and the nerves inside our brain become damaged. These injuries can lead to a concussion. There are many signs and symptoms of a concussion.
In a previous post I outlined the most common signs and symptoms of a concussion . Typically most concussion symptoms may appear initially and develop over the first 24-72 hours. Children can experience the same concussion symptoms as older kids and even as adults. This is why it is imperative to have treatment for a concussion as soon as possible after the injury has occurred. If your child is sleepy, let them sleep; however , call 9-1-1 immediately after a head injury if your child can't be woken up.
Most concussions in children will heal quickly however some symptoms including memory loss, headaches, and problems with concentration may linger for several weeks or even months. As a parent or caregiver, it's critical to watch for these symptoms and contact your doctor if they persist. A concussion injury is not to be taken lightly and must be treated properly. If in doubt contact a doctor or qualified health professional immediately. If your concussion is from a motor vehicle accident or a slip and fall accident, you may be entitled to compensation.

Need a laugh? Sit back and enjoy this collection of funny stories from our archive. Sixteen urban legends with a punch line!
A CHARLOTTE, North Carolina man, having purchased a case of rare, very expensive cigars, insured them against (get this) fire! Within a month, having smoked his entire stockpile of fabulous cigars, and having yet to make a single premium payment on the policy, the man filed a claim against the insurance company.
In his claim, the man stated that he had lost the cigars "in a series of small fires." The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason that the man had consumed the cigars in a normal fashion. The man sued — and won! In delivering his ruling, the judge stated that since the man held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that the cigars would be insured against fire, without defining what it considered to be unacceptable fire, it was obligated to compensate the insured for his loss.
Rather than endure a lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company grudgingly accepted the judge's ruling and paid the man $15,000 for the rare cigars he lost in the fires.
After the man cashed his check, however, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of arson. With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used as evidence against him, the man was convicted of intentionally burning the rare cigars and sentenced to 24 consecutive one-year terms.
So don't piss off your insurance company!

Port of Tallinn Wins Domestic Ferry Service Procurement ({{commentsTotal}})
The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications has announced that the Port of Tallinn will service domestic ferry routes between the mainland and the two largest Estonian islands for the next decade.
The head of the procurement commission, Jaak Kaabel, said the Port of Tallinn made a cheaper bid than the current operator Väinamere Liinid, who was the only other qualified tenderer. It also offered newer ferries.
The ministry hopes to sign the contract with the Port of Tallinn in the near future. The state-owned company will get around 200 million euros in subsidies over 10 years. That is nearly 60 million less than asked in the competitor's bid.
The Port of Tallinn has told the ministry that it will be able to procure four new ferries by October 1, 2016. The new vessels will have the option of using gas as a fuel in the future built into them. They will be able to operate all year without the need for towing or help from ice-breaking ships. Every ship has room for at least 150 cars or 10 road trains, and 600 passengers.
The Port of Tallinn said that their aim is to take the quality of the ferry service to a new level.
The chairman of the Port of Tallinn's management board, Ain Kaljurand, said that the contract fulfills the financial objectives and ensures that the company will earn the usual amount of profit from the investment.
"For the Port of Tallinn this is a new, additional line of business," he said. "The whole company will contribute to the successful running of the service and the necessary preparations."
The purchase agreements for the four new ferries will be signed either this week or the next. Agreements will be signed with two shipbuilding companies for two ferries each.
The former Minister of Regional Affairs, Siim-Valmar Kiisler of IRL, said that the Port of Tallinn is a good choice as it helps to save money.
"IRL has always held that the current service provider has used different schemes to artificially inflate the prices," he said, noting that in principle, Minister of Economic Affairs Urve Palo is carrying out the plan that Juhan Parts, the former minister, drew up.
"It included the procurement of new ferries through the Port of Tallinn and the reduction of prices. We hope that the Port of Tallinn will succeed in buying the ferries and breaking the monopoly," which is held by Vjatšeslav Leedo, the owner of Väinamere Liinid. "Today's decision must have also been strongly influenced by the pressure exerted by the public and the opposition," Kiisler said.

Rethink Your Lip Balm With The Latest Class Action Lawsuit
Unless you have been living under a rock, every girl knows EOS (Evolution of Smooth) lip balm. These round and colourful mini lip balm pods are instantly recognizable. They come in a rainbow assortment of flavors that have celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian, Britney Spears and Taylor Swift flaunting them. This revolutionary reinvention of a traditionally beauty category – lip balms – was made famous for its smooth sphere-shaped pod packaging and the need for women to "pucker up" to apply on, rather than the usual sticks and pots.
EOS is founded by a former commodity trader Craig Dubitsky who was revered by many as an visionary start-up mastermind. The idea behind EOS was to create a product that every girl would want to have, made from natural ingredients and packaged in the most innovative, charming and most unusual way possible. This product was meant to radically alter the consumer's perception of just how appealing lip balms can be.
Despite EOS's efforts to market these rainbow-colored and candy-flavored lip balms as 99% natural, paraben-free, gluten-free and made with vitamins, jojoba oil and shea butter, latest lawsuits seem to tell a different story.
A handful of customers are suing the lip balm company in the latest class action lawsuit of 2016. According to TMZ reports, they claim EOS lip balms causes "severe rashes, blistering, cracking, bleeding and loss of pigmentation". Yikes!
Recently, it seems more and more women are experiencing dry and rough lips or a hit of allergic reaction upon first application. Has there been a change in formula (after all, its founder Craig Dubitsky is no longer affliated with EOS company)? Or are we just getting more sensitive to allergens?
Some say it might not all be EOS fault. Dermatologists say that even products that are natural, organic and paraben-free can still irritate and cause allergic reactions. "Contact reactions are not that uncommon and can even happen with natural products," said Dr. Apple Bodemer, assistant professor of dermatology at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health.
What is important is to know what you are, or could be, allergic to and try to avoid it.
No matter if the EOS lawsuit gets settled in or out of court, it serves as a reminder to all beauty and skincare buyers to be an ingredients sleuth, even when brands and products claim to be natural.
Girls, always read the ingredients listing. Period.

An Anglican bishop in Britain has said he will convert to Catholicism, media reported Sunday, in the latest schism over the ordination of women.
John Broadhurst, the bishop of Fulham in southwest London, accused the Church of England's governing body the General Synod of acting in a "fascist" way.
"I don't feel I have a choice but to leave the church and take up the pope's offer," he said in comments quoted by the Sunday Telegraph.
"The General Synod has become vindictive and vicious.
"It has been fascist in its behaviour, marginalising those who have been opposed to women's ordination. We have not been given any space."
The General Synod ruled in July that women bishops should be allowed, paving the way for their ordination despite objections from traditionalists.
Broadhurst is chairman of the Forward in Faith, a leading traditionalist group. AFP was unable to reach him for comment.
In 2009, the Roman Catholic Church unveiled a new juridical framework that made it easier for Anglicans unhappy with the Church of England's ordination of female and homosexual clergy to join Catholic ranks.
Broadhurst's reported comments came the month after Pope Benedict XVI's state visit to Britain.
He is the fourth and most senior Anglican bishop to make the announcement, the BBC reported.

The Role of NGOs in Environmental Policy Failures in a Developing Country: The Mismanagement of Jamaica's Coral Reefs
Recent years have seen a proliferation of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) with a mission to help redress various social and environmental problems, but the effectiveness of these organisations in carrying out their stated goals is rarely assessed or critically examined. It has become increasingly clear, however, that these organisations vary greatly in their level of competence and professionalism. Many of them are ineffective, and in some cases they may even exacerbate the problems they set out to solve. These difficulties are based upon flawed assumptions about how civil society can correct social ills, and about how institutions that are intermediate between the individual and the state can carry out effective change. To illustrate these points with an environmental example, we present the case of Jamaica's coral reefs, which have been under stress for decades. Both the causes of reef degradation and the solutions to these problems can be clearly outlined. Many well-intentioned organisations and individuals have been involved in the attempt to stem or reverse the damage, and significant funding has been channelled through these agencies. In spite of this, there has been no documented improvement in the condition of the reefs, apart from some natural regeneration that owed nothing whatever to any human activity. The problem is that the known solutions have not been implemented. This has happened for several reasons. First, government organisations have actively encouraged NGOs to undertake the responsibility of protecting sections of the coastline, but without any proper assessment of the capacity of those organisations to do so, and in some cases actively preventing them from acquiring that capacity. Second, the proliferation of NGOs (in part a response to the availability of funding) has been counter-effective, resulting in duplication of effort, competition for limited funds, and conscious or unconscious misrepresentation of results. Third, the utilisation of NGOs to solve environmental problems often results in an increase in the number of levels of management, resulting in inefficient utilisation of funds. The known solutions to the degradation in the Jamaican marine environment principally involve (a) reducing fishing pressures at a national level and (b) the reduction of pollution by local municipalities. The effective role of NGOs in bringing about these two solutions therefore differs: where national changes are necessary, government centralisation and effective enforcement are necessary, although NGOs could still play a useful auxiliary or augmenting role. With local problems like municipal pollution, NGOs may be better able to lead in catalysing and implementing change, although the government could usefully provide co-ordination and support. These differences illustrate the fallacy in the simplistic assumption that rising public concern, increased levels of funding and a growing number of people and/or organisations involved in conservation will lead to environmental improvement. Effective hierarchical organisation is still a prerequisite for bringing about effective solutions, although the mode of organisation adopted should be a function of the particular solution necessary. Finally, since many NGOs have effectively functioned as parasitical organisations that have consumed public funding without any discernible public benefit, NGOs should be subject to the same scrutiny and assessment as any private sector organisation contracted to the government and/or donor agencies, and those who fail to perform should be barred from further receipt of public funds.

Buried in Mt. Hope Cemetery, Burlington, Coffey Co., KS.
Died: July 24, 1917
Henry W. Ela one of the pioneers of Coffey county, died at his home at the corner of Fifth and LaMoille street at 11:30 this morning after a lingering illness. He was 81 years old. No arrangements have been made for the funeral. Mr. Ela came to Coffey county in 1885 with the Hampden colony, and has lived here ever since. He served in the Union army during the civil war.
The funeral of Henry W. Ela was held at the Methodist church yesterday morning and the interment in Mt. Hope cemetery. The services were in charge of Rev. J. L. Thompson of the Christian church, and a large number of friends and neighbors attended. The male quartet furnished the music. Rev. Mr. Odom preached a comforting sermon and paid a high tribute to the memory of Mr. Ela. Mr. Ela was the last survivor of the second company of emigrants to Hampden.
Henry W. Ela was born in Windser county Vermont January 25, 1836, died July 24, 1917. He came to Kansas with his parents in 1855 and was here during the border warfare, and during the civil war service in Company E 5th Kansas Cavalry. On January 1868 he was married to Lucinda Jones and there were born four children: Twin sons, died in infancy, Cora Emma, now Mrs. Marsh of Waynoka Okla., and Frank W. Ela of Fenton, Mich. His first wife died March 22, 1878. He was married to Laura J. Vail February 29, 1880. To the were born two children: Grace, who died in infancy and Geo. W. Ela of Valley Falls Kans. Mr. Ela's parents dedicated him to the Lord in a special way in his childhood with the hope of preparing him for the ministry but before completing his education he decided to come west and help make Kansas a free state. About nine years ago he united with the M. E. church and remained faithful in attendance and interest as long as he was able. All who knew him can say as the Master said of a man of old; "This was one in whom there was no quit."
Mr. Ela had a large circle of friends and was always pleasant and jovial and was especially highly esteemed by those who knew him best. He had been in poor health for a long time and died at his home in Burlington Tuesday July 24, 1917. During all his long illness his wife was in constant attendance, ministering to his needs.

Los Angeles Angels vs. Tampa Bay Rays MLB Pick, Odds, Prediction - 5/16/14
Tampa Bay Rays (18-23) at Los Angeles Angels (21-18)
MLB Baseball: Friday, May 16, 2014 at 10:05 pm (Angel Stadium)
Chris Archer (R) (2-2) (5.161) vs. Jered Weaver (R) (4-2) (3.219)
The Line: Los Angeles Angels -138 / Tampa Bay Rays +128 --- Over/Under: 8 See the Latest Odds
TV: Sun Sports, FSN-W
The Tampa Bay Rays and Los Angeles Angels will play game two of four on Friday night.
With the 6-5 loss on Thursday, the Rays have lost eight of their last 12 games and are now six games below a .500 record. The Rays pitching rotation is simply terrible, allowing five or more runs in four of their last seven games and giving up a 5-2 lead in the bottom of the ninth to lose the first game against the Angels. The Rays are 4-20 when allowing more than three runs this season. Chris Archer hopes to turn things around, and he's 2-2 with a 5.16 ERA and has 36 strikeouts in 45.1 innings. Archer is 1-1 with a 5.06 ERA in two career starts against the Angels.
USA TODAY Sports
The Angels have won six of their last seven games and are gaining ground in the AL West. Getting a heavy dose of offense, the Angels have scored no less than three runs in seven straight games and put together an improbable rarely against the Rays due to a Mike Trout homerun. Trout now have eight RBI in his last nine games. The Angels pitching has also been a little more consistent during this stretch, allowing more than three runs just twice. Jered Weaver will start Friday, and he's 4-2 with a 3.22 ERA and has 40 strikeouts in 50.1 innings. Weaver is 4-3 with a 3.92 ERA in nine career starts against the Rays.
The Rays are 4-0 in Archer's last 4 starts as an underdog and 4-13 in their last 17 games vs. a right-handed starter. The Angels are 49-17 in Weaver's last 66 starts as a favorite and 53-25 in Weaver's last 78 starts overall. The Angels are 1-4 in Weaver's last 5 starts vs. Rays.
Do you trust the Rays pitching at this point? Yeah. Me neither. Take the Angels and never mind the juice.

Gangplank Build Guide by WaRBeArDoFwAr
Not Updated For Current Season

Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue

Scurvy Fury
Gangplank Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Ahoy Scurvy Fellow!
I'm a direct person. Short and to the point.
Let the bristles from my beard impart wisdom and clarify this wonderful champ.
I used to only go support. Passive. The helping hand.
But with GP, I have found my true calling. Sustained Enduring WaRfArE.
I will answer any questions asked. Be respectful please.
- Let us tangle our beards in war -
Ignite gives you surprising kill power with Q.
Flash a must.
I would not use Teleport. You already have global presence with Ult. Flash and Ignite too valuable to not use.
Skill Sequence
Max W. Always. Scurvy Fury for a reason. You will be able to spam by early-mid game. Save in cause of mischief since it breaks slows and holds. With your flash you will be a hard pirate to capture.
Look at Raise Morale passives. Damn. Don't get caught in hype. Level E 2nd.
PaRRRley. Last hit minions = Cash flow. Also matey, HARASS THE ENEMY!
Farm 1st.
Harass 2nd.
Be a cool pirate. Pick your spots. But first priority is the farm.
*Cannon Barrage Awareness*
- Even if you even your lane...or losing for some weird reason... your Ultimate will allow you to pickup assists and potentially kills.
- Use to clear minion wave and push champs off turret when away.
VERY IMPORTANT: Be aware of mana use. Especially pre-Sheen. Afterwards things are fine.
I always start Doran's Shield for sustain.
Regardless of opponent.
Trinity Force Always and Forever.
Spirit Visage: This pulls it all together. With cooldown boots and TF your Scurvy Fury is full blown.
ALTERNATIVE: If against HEAVY AD: Randuin's Omen.
*This is when you can push back Last Whisper or Spirit Visage... but if pushing back Visage you are in a real bad way...*
Many people say get Last Whisper as 5th item. I say No. Spirit Visage 2nd gives sustain with W. Now add some juice to your shot and slash. Then bulk again with Frozen Mallet (passive works beautifully with Parrrley).
Last Item: Infinity Edge. Warmog's or GA if you are feeling like a Pirate god.
In Conclusion: Taunt Laugh Once Winning
