What Are the Signs of Traumatic Brain Injury?
- Physical disabilities: Individuals with TBI may have problems speaking, seeing, hearing, and using their other senses. They may have headaches and feel tired a lot. They may also have trouble with skills such as writing or drawing. Their muscles may suddenly contract or tighten (this is called spasticity). They may also have seizures. Their balance and walking may also be affected. They may be partly or completely paralyzed on one side of the body, or both sides.
- Difficulties with thinking: Because the brain has been injured, it is common that the person's ability to use the brain changes. For example, children with TBI may have trouble with short-term memory (being able to remember something from one minute to the next, like what the teacher just said). They may also have trouble with their long-term memory (being able to remember information from a while ago, like facts learned last month). People with TBI may have trouble concentrating and only be able to focus their attention for a short time. They may think slowly. They may have trouble talking and listening to others. They may also have difficulty with reading and writing, planning, understanding the order in which events happen (called sequencing), and judgment.
- Social, behavioral, or emotional problems: These difficulties may include sudden changes in mood, anxiety, and depression. Children with TBI may have trouble relating to others. They may be restless and may laugh or cry a lot. They may not have much motivation or much control over their emotions.
- A child with TBI may not have all of the above difficulties. Brain injuries can range from mild to severe, and so can the changes that result from the injury. This means that it's hard to predict how an individual will recover from the injury. Early and ongoing help can make a big difference in how the child recovers. This help can include physical or occupational therapy, counseling, and special education. It's also important to know that, as the child grows and develops, parents and teachers may notice new problems. This is because, as students grow, they are expected to use their brain in new and different ways. The damage to the brain from the earlier injury can make it hard for the student to learn new skills that come with getting older. Sometimes parents and educators may not even realize that the student's difficulty comes from the earlier injury.
The damage from TBI can be focal, confined to one area of the brain, or diffuse, involving more than one area of the brain. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with concussion (a shaking of the brain in response to sudden motion of the head), diffuse axonal injury, or coma. Localized injuries may be associated with neurobehavioral manifestations, hemiparesis or other focal neurologic deficits.
Types of focal brain injury include bruising of brain tissue called a contusion and intracranial hemorrhage or hematoma, heavy bleeding in the skull. Hemorrhage, due to rupture of a blood vessel in the head, can be extra-axial, meaning it occurs within the skull but outside of the brain, or intra-axial, occurring within the brain. Extra-axial hemorrhages can be further divided into subdural hematoma, epidural hematoma, and subarachnoid hemorrhage. An epidural hematoma involves bleeding into the area between the skull and the dura. With a subdural hematoma, bleeding is confined to the area between the dura and the arachnoid membrane. A subarachnoid hemorrhage involves bleeding into the space between the surface of the brain and the arachnoid membrane that lies just above the surface of the brain, usually resulting from a tear in a blood vessel on the surface of the brain. Bleeding within the brain itself is called an intracerebral hematoma. Intra-axial bleeds are further divided into intraparenchymal hemorrhage which occurs within the brain tissue itself and intraventricular hemorrhage which occurs into the ventricular system.
TBI can result from a closed head injury or a penetrating head injury. A closed injury occurs when the head suddenly and violently hits an object but the object does not break through the skull. A penetrating injury occurs when an object pierces the skull and enters brain tissue.
As the first line of defense, the skull is particularly vulnerable to injury. Skull fractures occur when a bone in the skull cracks or breaks. A depressed skull fracture occurs when pieces of the broken skull press into the tissue of the brain. A penetrating skull fracture occurs when something pierces the skull, such as a bullet, leaving a distinct and localized traumatic injury to brain tissue. Skull fractures can cause cerebral contusion.
Another insult to the brain that can cause injury is anoxia. Anoxia is a condition in which there is an absence of oxygen supply to an organ's tissues, even if there is adequate blood flow to the tissue. Hypoxia refers to a decrease in oxygen supply rather than a complete absence of oxygen, and ischemia is inadequate blood supply, as is seen in cases in which the brain swells. In any of these cases, without adequate oxygen, a biochemical cascade called the ischemic cascade is unleashed, and the cells of the brain can die within several minutes. This type of injury is often seen in near-drowning victims, in heart attack patients (particularly those who have suffered a cardiac arrest, or in people who suffer significant blood loss from other injuries that then causes a decrease in blood flow to the brain due to circulatory (hypovolemic) shock.

Books & Reference | Android
THE TIME MACHINE by H. G. Wells (abridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below). "[Wells] contrives to give over humanity into the clutches of the Impossible and yet manages to keep it down (or up) to its humanity, to its flesh, blood, sorrow, folly." (Joseph Conrad) A time traveler steps out of his time-transport machine in the year 802,700 to find Earth populated by a race of wealthy pacifists supported by a repressed slave class. As the conflict between the classes erupts, he realizes his only means of escape, his time machine, has been stolen. Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves. NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Oscar®-winning actor, Sir Ben Kingsley. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here. • EXPERIENCE. About 3.5 hours of narration. Created as a Folium enhancedAudio™ edition, this book includes extra functions and features not found on lesser players. • PLAYER CONTROLS. Includes listen (play), pause, multi-speed fast forward/reverse, jump ahead/back, chapter skip, volume control, one-touch chapter- and bookmark browser. There is also a "scrub" bar that finds any point inside the chapter with just a tap. • SLEEP TIMER. Have you ever fallen asleep watching TV or listening to a book? If so, you'll love this feature. Once set, the book will stop, place a bookmark, and allow you to jump back to where you probably began dozing. • CLEAR & ELEGANT DESIGN.

Plus, the progress bar at the top of the screen shows how far into the book you've come. • OFFLINE LISTENING. You are airplane-ready!

Wells. ___________________ The Time Traveler steps into his machine to embark upon an astonishing journey beyond the frontiers of time, space and the human imagination. When he emerges, he finds himself in the year 802,700, observing a utopian age in which creatures coexist in peace and harmony. He plans to study this society and return to his own time to implement its secrets—until he discovers that his machine, his only means of transport back to his own life, has been stolen! This remarkable piece of science fiction, published in 1895, won immediate recognition for H.G. Wells and has been called a masterpiece of the genre.

Imagine one hundred students - some of them are male, and some female. Then you ask them to separate - boys to go left, and girls to go right. Now you have two groups of them, grouped by sex. Next, kindly request to form a line: tallest one first, then a little bit smaller, etc. etc., and the smallest should be at the end of the line. When they finish that, you have them ordered by height.
Oracle deals with such things in a way you can read about here. Search for "group_by_clause" and "order_by_clause".

Littlefoot, that is the clearest simplest analogy I have seen to explain the difference between the two! Hope you don't mind if I 'borrow' your analogy in the future when I'm trying to explain this to someone90% of users' problems can be resolved by punching them - the other 10% by switching off their PCs.

Excelent example!!!
How would you explain a "HAVING" clause in that example?
Like we say in Argentina "quiero re-truco!" (It's a card game, like poker, and when we raise the bet we say that).

Standard reduction potentials for oxygen and carbon dioxide couples in acetonitrile and N,N -dimethylformamide
A variety of next-generation energy processes utilize the electrochemical interconversions of dioxygen and water as the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Reported here are the first estimates of the standard reduction potential of the O2 + 4e– + 4H+ ⇌ 2H2O couple in organic solvents. The values are +1.21 V in acetonitrile (MeCN) and +0.60 V in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), each versus the ferrocenium/ferrocene couple (Fc+/0) in the respective solvent (as are all of the potentials reported here). The potentials have been determined using a thermochemical cycle that combines the free energy for transferring water from aqueous solution to organic solvent, –0.43 kcal mol–1 for MeCN and –1.47 kcal mol–1 for DMF, and the potential of the H+/H2 couple, – 0.028 V in MeCN and –0.662 V in DMF. The H+/H2 couple in DMF has been directly measured electrochemically using the previously reported procedure for the MeCN value. The thermochemical approach used for the O2/H2O couple has been extended to the CO2/CO and CO2/CH4 couples to give values of –0.12 and +0.15 V in MeCN and –0.73 and –0.48 V in DMF, respectively. Here, extensions to other reduction potentials are discussed. Additionally, the free energy formore »

The 38-year-old third baseman for the New York Yankees has been the rumor mill headliner in the past few weeks as a result of the Biogenesis PED scandal. All of the signs point to a fast-approaching implosion for Alex Rodriguez's career as several reports surfaced today that the MLB office plans to act swiftly and severely.
I first heard about MLB's plans to suspend Rodriguez during a FOX Saturday afternoon baseball game. Ken Rosenthal, an MLB on FOX reporter, tweeted this around that time:
…baseball plans to suspend A-Rod for at least this season and next. He has told friends he will appeal and "fight to the end."
— Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) August 3, 2013
Rosenthal prefaced that tweet with another which cited multiple reliable sources for this information. Later in the day, SportsCenter tweeted out a breaking news blip stating just about the same thing as Rosenthal said. The planned suspension ought to be enforced on Monday and Rodriguez plans on appealing this ruling until the bitter end.
With this verdict being passed down from the league office, I believe that A-Rod might as well just have received a lifetime ban from baseball. In his best case scenario, it takes weeks or months to get the decision overturned via appeal, but even then, Rodriguez's image is so tarnished in baseball fans' eyes that he will never be trusted again.
In a medium case scenario, Rodriguez accepts his punishment like a man and sits out the end of this season and the entire 2014 season. He could then return and try to reestablish himself as a ballplayer and attempt to rebuild his character in the public eye.
Alas, more than likely, this will be a worst case scenario outcome for Rodriguez. He will likely fight this ruling to the bitter end, lose the respect of any fans who held on to faith that possibly he could be proven innocent and will either retire or try to make a futile attempt at a return in 2014. With his turning 40 years old in the middle of that season and a reputation for cheating and lying, it is unlikely any team will give the historic veteran a chance.
A lifetime ban would be a swifter and more merciful judgment for Rodriguez, but either way, A-Rod might have played his last games in MLB this season.

Getting Full Sql Statement In Query Analyzer
Thanks for the help. I tested the command, but it only showed a certain amount of the sql statement. I am running some very long sql statements, and I wanted to know if there was another way to get all of the sql statement no matter the length of the statement for a particular spid. Thanks again for the help.

`Ed Wood' Falls In Love With The Making Of Movies
By Gene Siskel
October 7, 1994
Our Flick of the Week is "Ed Wood," one of those rare films that communicates the exquisite joy of the moviemaking process. Rank it right up there with Francois Truffaut's "Day for Night" as well as "Heart of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse," the documentary on the making of Francis Coppola's "Apocalypse Now." But unlike those films by and about pantheon directors, "Ed Wood" is about a B-grade talent, an inept filmmaker who worked with cheesy sets and loopy dialogue in the...

Avid Movie Fans Of `Ed Wood' Flick Get Bela-full
By Judy Hevrdejs & Mike Conklin
October 30, 1994
Could Tim Burton's movie "Ed Wood," with Johnny Depp as Wood and Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi, be the next "The Rocky Horror Picture Show?" One industry exec seems to think so, considering the cult following that's developed around Burton's fuzzy hug of a homage for Wood, the man known as the world's worst movie director. Several video companies have films by Wood, including Rhino Home Video, which released "Plan 9 From Outer Space" in August and now finds it on Billboard's sales...
When the star dies, can the show go on?
By Susan King, TRIBUNE NEWSPAPERS: Los Angeles Times
January 27, 2008
Heath Ledger had finished his work as the Joker in the upcoming "The Dark Knight" before his death last week at age 28. "Knight" is set for release in July. But there is no word on the fate of his last film, Terry Gilliam's "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus," which Ledger was working on in London this month. Once the shock of an actor's death has passed, producers and studios must decide how to cope with the loss. Sometimes the answer is bringing in a double, using footage from other...
Best Of The Worst
By Donald Liebenson. Special to the Tribune
October 6, 1994
Ed Wood lives. Bad news for serious cineastes. Good news for devotees of one of Hollywood's most bizarre failure stories. Tim Burton's big-budget biography, "Ed Wood," starring Johnny Depp, has renewed interest in the director of such legendary "golden turkeys" as the infamous "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (1959), dubbed the worst film ever made. Wood, who died destitute in 1978, was one of Hollywood's "threshold people," making films with little money and even less talent. Wooden acting, cardboard sets...
Vintage L.A. mansion a muse for fashion designer Sue Wong

December 31, 2006
"Give me a seductive smile," says fashion designer Sue Wong to a model wearing a glittery chiffon dress. "Now, chin up just a little bit. Hold it -- go!" Since sunrise, Wong has directed an eight-person team assigned to capture the vintage glamor of her namesake line of beaded cocktail dresses and ball gowns. They've woven hairpieces, worried over accessories and pinned models into the new spring 2007 dresses. For all the meticulous planning, one part of the...
Mission: Possible
By Nancy Mills. Special to the Tribune
October 2, 1994
To most of today's filmgoers, the name Martin Landau is as remote as Bela Lugosi. Landau is the one-time rising star who appeared in "Mission Impossible" in the 1960s and has since collected two Oscar nominations for best supporting actor in "Tucker" and "Crimes and Misdemeanors." Lugosi was the actor famous for playing Dracula and other horror parts in movies from the 1920s through the 1950s. What brings them together is that Landau plays Lugosi in Tim Burton's new wallow in weirdness, "Ed Wood," about the...
`Worst movie ever' has its merits
By Michael Wilmington, Tribune movie critic
October 20, 2006
When does a movie become so bad, it's good? For more than half a century, critics have proclaimed Ed Wood Jr.'s "Plan 9 from Outer Space"--that mishmash of San Fernando Valley ghouls, vampires and alien invaders--the "worst movie ever made," while audiences keep laughing their heads off at it. Shot for peanuts on sets that look as if they're about to fall over (the movie's cardboard cemetery gravestones actually do), the movie is written in hilariously purple prose by Wood, and acted by a cast...

And second, we have a ready-made excuse to celebrate our freedom to watch any old thing we want, no matter how rotten it may be. For starters, you might want to curl up on the couch watching the newly minted, colorized version of Ed Wood's "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (Genius Entertainment, $14.99).

`Chucky' doesn't just rhyme with yucky
By Roger Moore, Tribune Newspapers. Roger Moore is the movie critic for the Orlando Sentinel, a Tribune newspaper
November 13, 2004
Little tip for Don Mancini, creator of Chucky the killer doll, and writer-director of "Seed of Chucky": Don't make jokes about Ed Wood -- the "worst director in the history of Hollywood" -- if you can't do better. Mancini has made a career of cranking out the Chucky cheese, and this latest, the fifth film in the slasher series, came with such low expectations that the people who write the checks let him direct it. At least they had a sense of humor. Chucky, the stitched-up doll...

Samuel L. Jackson doesn't expect to be delivering any acceptance speeches at the Academy Awards any time soon. Jackson, who got an Oscar nomination for "Pulp Fiction" but lost to Martin Landau of "Ed Wood," says the awards are a "farce." In a recent discussion of the Oscars, he said "I have very low expectations of the academy and the whole Oscars process . . . I don't particularly believe anyone is sitting in a room counting the votes. They just send out ballots to keep us interested...

Cruise Learns To Be A Good Sports Agent
By Gene Siskel
December 13, 1996
Our Flick of the Week is "Jerry Maguire," which may be referred to as "the Tom Cruise sports agent movie," but really is an exciting romance and cautionary yuppie tale. And the actor who steals the movie is a name you have never heard of -- Renee Zellweger. Cruise, the quintessential yuppie actor, plays another one of his trademark characters, a wise guy in trouble. The trigger is when he has an epiphany as an agent and writes a scathing memo to his sports agency colleagues about...
Compelling Thriller Is Based On A Dream

October 19, 2000
For devotees of incredibly strange films, Kino's release of "Dementia" must rank as the video find of the year. Available on VHS and DVD, this obscure 1953 psychosexual thriller defies rational synopsis or categorization. It is truly one of a kind. The first and apparently only film directed by John J. Parker, "Dementia" originated as a 10-minute short that dramatized a dream of Parker's secretary, Adrienne Barrett. She stars in the film as the Gamin, who awakens from a nightmare in a...

I will get a new email in my inbox and then when I open it, it will be an email from a long while back or just something completely NOT what the current email is about. I am confused why or how this happening. For example I just signed up for a certain website. That site sent me an email to verify my email address. When I opened that email, and email popped up from one of my friends! I notice this A LOT with facebook. If someone leaves a comment on my wall or comments on a photo. I will get an email notification. When I open the email to read the person's comment, it won't show me their comment but will show me a old email that has nothing to do with the current message!

Charles Fipke's Unbridled Forever, who emerged as the 8-1 third choice in the wagering when the Kentucky Oaks Future Wager closed earlier this month, breezed six furlongs Saturday morning in 1:12.40 in preparation for the upcoming Grade II Fair Grounds Oaks on Louisiana Derby Day March 29 at Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots.
"I was very pleased with her work yesterday," said trainer Dallas Stewart during training hours Sunday morning when speaking of his star filly who has been idle since winning Fair Grounds' $125,000 Silverbulletday Stakes Jan.
18. That was the Crescent City oval's first leg of its three-race
series for sophomore fillies that concludes with the Fair Grounds
Oaks. "We got just what we wanted. She worked good, galloped out
good and ate up good last night. She's right on schedule."
Stewart trained the 2006 Kentucky Oaks winner Lemons Forever, who
subsequently foaled Unbridled Forever in Kentucky on April 23, 2011.
The conditioner, a native of nearby McComb, Mississippi, elected to
bypass the Grade III Rachel Alexandra Stakes with Unbridled Forever as the middle leg of Fair Grounds' series and has saved her for the Fair Grounds Oaks by design.
"There are plenty of big races later on the season," Stewart said in
the days immediately following her Silverbulletday Stakes victory.
Five of the last nine Fair Grounds Oaks winners have gone on to victory in the Kentucky Oaks a few weeks later in the spring.
Stewart worked West Point Thoroughbreds' Louisiana Derby candidate Commanding Curve and Charles Fipke's Grade II New Orleans Handicap candidate Golden Soul in
company going three-quarters on Friday to post bullet breezes of
1:13.60 over a track rated good. Seven-time Fair Grounds jockey
champion Robby Albarado was aboard Commanding Curve and is expected to ride him once again in the Louisiana Derby.
A rider for Golden Soul, who finished second behind Stuart Janney's Orb in last spring's Kentucky Derby, has
not been determined for the upcoming New Orleans Handicap, which will
also be contested March 29 as part of the Louisiana Derby Day program.

The long-awaited autobiography of one of Britain's best-loved actors.Born the son of a Billingsgate market porter at the height of the Second World War, David Jason spent his early life dodging bombs and bullies, both with impish good timing.
Giving up on an unloved career as an electrician, he turned his attention to acting and soon, through a natural talent for making people laugh, found himself working with the leading lights of British comedy in the 1960s and '70s: Eric Idle, Michael Palin, Bob Monkhouse and Ronnie Barker.
Barker would become a mentor to David, leading to hugely successful stints in Porridge and Open All Hours. It wasn't until 1981, kitted out with a sheepskin jacket, a flat cap, and a clapped-out Reliant Regal, that David found the part that would capture the nation's hearts: the beloved Derek 'Del Boy' Trotter in Only Fools and Horses.
Never a one-trick pony, he had an award-winning spell as TV's favourite detective Jack Frost, took a country jaunt as Pop Larkin in the Darling Buds of May, and even voiced a crime-fighting cartoon rodent in the much-loved children's show Danger Mouse.
But life hasn't all been so easy: from missing out on a key role in Dad's Army to nearly drowning in a freak diving accident, David has had his fair share of ups and downs, and has lost some of his nearest and dearest along the way.
David's is a touching, funny and warm-hearted story, which charts the course of his incredible five decades at the top of the entertainment business. He's been a shopkeeper and a detective inspector, a crime-fighter and a market trader, and he ain't finished yet. As Del Boy would say, it's all cushty. With an introduction narrated by David himself.

what type of work can a spanish translator do? and what is the pay to these types of jobs?Job related question about spanish translator please help!?
There are lots of jobs a spanish translator can do. I think working in a hospital would be the most rewarding.Job related question about spanish translator please help!?
Translate business documents, attend meetings and transcribe notes either from Spanish to English or the other way round. Act as a personal interpreter for someone who needs to be well understood or to understand just what is being said. It is not enough to just be fluent in the language you must have quite a bit of specialized knowledge in the area in which you will be asked to interpret. I am sure I have barely scratched the surface and I have no idea what those jobs pay.

On the top floor of our house we have a shower room with a sink in it. But in order to get hot water into it it has to be pumped up from the floor below, because the hot water is gravity-fed. But how do you start the pump? Couldn't find an affordable source of those taps (aka faucets if you don't speak the Queen's English) with a sensor at the back when we installed this, so instead developed a small electronic system which is activated by a push-switch over the sink.
And this fools just about everybody. Push a button to get hot water out of the sink? At one stage the switch had a label saying 'Push For Hot Water', but that just made things worse - they didn't open the tap first, and of course the pump times out after a few seconds if there's no flow. Somewhat perversely, the whole arrangement works better *without* the label - users attempt to open the tap first, then in desperation hit the button - and it works! Go figure...
absolutely. Wanna know something else annoying about motion sensors? While they normally won't pick up small things, like houseflies for example, they will pick up said small things if they land on the effing sensor.
Like when I was on Active Duty for the Army at Ft. Drum, New York. I was the armorer, which basically means my work day consisted of maintaining all the weapons and other equipment (personally responsible for about 2.4 million dollars in assorted gear).... Well there's a motion sensor in the arms room. This motion sensor is calibrated to ignore little things like house flies. I got woke up in the middle of the night by the officer in charge of the arms room and the MPs knocking on my barracks room door. The sensor had gone off and I needed to open up the door. So I do. And there's nothing there. Just like I knew there wouldn't be. Then the gorram fly has the nerve to buzz me. You better bet I hunted down that little fracker with a vengeance.
Yeah, some of our bathrooms have light sensors, some of them don't, it's really confusing! Although we're so strongly trained to turn out lights that even without the sensors we often end up in the dark :| (and it's REALLY dark in there)
They installed motion sensors in our dorm rooms at college. Even if both me an my roommate were in the room, we could easily be still enough (especially when we were on our computers) that the lights would go off after a few minutes, and it would take several hand waves to get it to go back on. After a week of this, I finally pulled open the sensor, saw that it had only some numbered flip switches, found the manual online, and put it in permanent on mode and just used the wall switch instead. Then I told everyone in the dorm how to do the same thing themselves.
A friend of mine has a motion sensor light between her house and garage, focused on the pavement between the 2. (She lives in the city with a small child, so security is important.) Once in a while I'll go over to let her dog out and, of course, the light pops on whenever we're out back, assuming you stand in the 2sqft that activates it, but as soon as you leave that one spot, and I mean AS SOON as you leave it, it shuts off.
Motion sensors are infrared sensors, they also waste energy. If you put an incandescent light in, you don't notice that the bulb is lit, ever-so-slightly, because the switch has to complete a circuit in order to operate. If you plug in a CFL, it will flicker like it has been plugged into a dimmer.
It's funny though, in most buildings, there is no use for motion sensor lights because the switches aren't located where the sensor would need to point (like with closets and bathrooms where the switches are outside.)
It's odd. I didn't notice the title at first, and I read it as Jam waving her hand around looking for the chain. Because it's a closet. The only possible way to light a closet is with a bare bulb controlled by a chain hanging down from the socket to just out of your comfortable reach.
Or maybe I'm just old. ^_^
This reminds me of the handwaving madwoman I become as I try to operate automatic sinks. Which either end up making me wet my wrist when they turn on due to time delay, or turn out to be not automatic after all *embarrassed cough*
I find sinks require a series of awkward poses before I remember that faucets are a thing.
However if they *do* have a sensor, I figured out that most of the ones used in bathrooms are LIGHT sensors not MOTION sensors, so if you just touch the sensor itself to block out the light that helps.
At least I think. It might be a placebo.
None of the ones in my area turn on when I cover them, so they're not light sensors (plus, there's a sign saying "please turn off the lights" on your way out in several places, making the light sensor concept a really poor choice). I find you have to hold your hands in just the right place and if you move them around to properly wash your hands, it just decides you're gone and turns off. One is particularly bad and I came very close to yelling "I'm right f***ing here, d***it!" before realizing how that would sound to anyone outside the men's room.
I did a video on like this exact thing. XD It happens to me all the time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtW-V9LvKkU
The problem with gesture and voice activated machinery is that they still not accurate enough to receive our commands. These machines are good for disabled person, but I still prefer the basic buttons/touch buttons. It was simple, easy to use and fool proof.
This give me an idea, a sensor that will help blind folks finding their items. Let say there are sensors in every rooms that accept voice commands. When he/she looking for... say.... a hair dryer, simply say "(insert the name of your AI computer here), Find Hair Dryer" and said hair dryer, already equipped with a small sensor will emit a beeping voice that can be easily identified.
So frustrating that there are automatic mechanism that don't works despite that you have all the expectation of its functions and features. That may be from its system failure or any other faulty for it not to work, but there is always a second option, use the features manually. Like the experience I have, I bought a Victorian door at caldwells.com at Bay Area, San Francisco and use automatic opener and locking security. I have all both use automation and manual functions as optional if in case one don't work.
Whew! That was a bit embarrassing, good thing no one was around to see th- oh wait.

Click on the following website. http://emsu.8m.com/anatomy.htm
1. Why did the study of anatomy/physiology remain dormant until the 5th Century B.C?
2. Ancient Greece
a. Empedocles- Greek scientists ( ca. 490-430 B.C.). believed that pneuma, which was both life and soul, flowed through the blood vessels.
b. Alcmaeon- Greek scientists (ca. 500 B.C.). .). The first person to dissect the human body for research purposes, he is also given credit for proposing that the brain is the center of intelligence.
c. Define the word ethereal and state how it relates to Empedocles pneuma. Extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world & Empedocles thought that pneuma life and soul flowing through the blood vessels and it was almost unbelievable.
d. Hippocrates- is known as the father of medicine.
e. Why were some of Hippocrates ideas rejected during his lifetime? When diseases were still thought to be punishments of god.
f. What advantage did Aristotle have over Hippocrates in terms of medicine? They were limited by the lack of dissections.
g. State two erroneous beliefs that Aristotle proposed. He believed that the brain cooled the heart by secreting "phlegm" and that the arteries only contained air.
3. The Beginning of Modern Anatomy
a. Erasistratus- conducted the first systematic dissections of the human body.
b. Herophilus- established the brain as the center of intelligence, distinguished between veins and arteries,and made many other accurate ovservation about the structure of the human body especially the nervous system.
c. Galen- considered to be the greated ancient physician after Hippocrates, he observed many brain structures, the structural differences between veins and ateries and many other structures of the human body including heart valves, and he observed that muscles contract in response to a stimulus from nerves, and demonstrated that the arteries carry blood not air.

Bella is now 13 months old and still has moderate body odor. It doesn't seem to be as bad in the winter as the warmer months. Largely bc she has a barrier of clothing between her armpits I think, vs wearing tank tops and dresses in summer. We have an appt the end of March at an endocronologist doctor who will I guess be running tests that my pediatrician did not run. The endo dr. still wanted to see Bella even after the blood work came back normal for estrogen levels and such. I guess they know exactly what to be looking for.
I actually used my deod. on her in the summer months when the bo was out of control. My pediatrician told me not to, but she wasn't walking around with a stinky baby either....it didn't break her out so no harm done in my opinion...hehe
I will post the results of the dr. findings.

Elderly man airlifted to safety from Shannon Estuary
An elderly man had to be rescued in Co Clare last night, after his yacht got into difficulty in the Shannon Estuary.
Windy conditions caused his boat to crash into the rocks near Kildysart in Co Clare.
The man climbed onto a nearby small island for safety.
The emergency service were contacted at approximately 11:20pm, however the Coast Guard's lifeboats could not access him due to stormy conditions.
The rescue helicopter was then sent to the scene and the man was brought to safety just after midnight.
He was brought to Limerick University Hospital suffering from hypothermia.

text: Sat-cha-ananda, thanks to you for discovering people like Harish of Pride Cars. I got the EGR, intake manifold etc. of my Linea 2012 cleaned by Harish. I was charged 3200 for the job. This expenditure is by far the most rewarding one that I've done on this car. Before this job, my car didn't feel sluggish exactly. Even when the EGR was opened up, it wasn't fully clogged (70% clogged). This is probably because, I use my car predominantly on highways. And a fair bit of usage - 37k kms in a year. For a moment, I was thinking if I had made a mistake by getting it done by non-authorized mechanics. My thumb rule to judge a good mechanic is by the number of screws and bolts that are left out (or needed additionally) at the end of the job. But Harish and his team didn't have a single bolt or screw left (or needed). Of course, 'single use' consumables like clamps were replaced. This type of work is a hard to find, in these days. Coming back to the job, there was a fair amount of carbon deposits in the concerned parts. I would say that the amount of deposits were within the tolerance levels. But at the same time, the engine was definitely working so much more to compensate for these deposits. Once I started the car after the job, the positive effects were immediately visible. The harshness of the engine disappeared. Like veteran 'epicenter.rulez' put it, the car became very 'eager' at all rpms. Took it for a long drive in the night to Kolar CCD and the car worked beautifully well - silent, peppy and very agile. This job is highly recommended every 30k kms. If anyone's planning to get it done, then please take out time for this. This job needs 1-1.5 days to be done. I landed at 11am and I got the car back at 6.30pm. Mine took less time as it was an unexpectedly dull Saturday for Harish and the deposits were dispensed in a single round of cleaning (diesel spray) for most of the parts. The intake manifold needed a second round. 99% of the deposits were removed at the end. Authorized service centers do not take this work up, unless necessary, as it's time consuming. I tired Vecto and Ebony. Ebony directly told me its a long job. Both of them only agreed to clean the EGR valve alone (for 1k) and kept insisting that it's not required. After all, this job is going to keep a bay occupied for the whole day at the service center and it's not ideal when you have to turn out 20 cars in a day. I'm not associated with Harish or Pride Cars. But I'm a fan of their work now.

Monkey Paperback
by Wu Ch'eng-En
Also known as Journey to the West, Wu Ch'eng-en's Monkey is one of the Four Great Classical Novels in Chinese literature, translated by Arthur Waley in Penguin Classics.
Monkey depicts the adventures of Prince Tripitaka, a young Buddhist priest on a dangerous pilgrimage to India to retrieve sacred scriptures accompanied by his three unruly disciples: the greedy pig creature Pipsy, the river monster Sandy - and Monkey.
Hatched from a stone egg and given the secrets of heaven and earth, the irrepressible trickster Monkey can ride on the clouds, become invisible and transform into other shapes - skills that prove very useful when the four travellers come up against the dragons, bandits, demons and evil wizards that threaten to prevent them in their quest.
Wu Ch'eng-en wrote Monkey in the mid-sixteenth century, adding his own distinctive style to an ancient Chinese legend, and in so doing created a dazzling combination of nonsense with profundity, slapstick comedy with spiritual wisdom.
Arthur Waley's humorous and energetic translation is accompanied by an introduction discussing the story's background in history and legend, its elements of anti-bureaucratic satire and the allegorical nature of its characters Very little is known about Wu Ch'eng-en (c.1505-80) although he is believed to have held the post of District Magistrate for a time.
He had a reputation as a good poet but only a few rather commonplace verses of his survive in an anthology of Ming poetry and in a local gazetteer.If you enjoyed Monkey, you might like Confucius's The Analects, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

Review by Rynooo
Packed with humour and delivered with naive charm, this is a masterful translation of a timeless folklore classic. The roguish but wise Monkey is a constant source of amusement and his audacity is at times genuinely laugh-out-loud hilarious.Clocking in a little over 350 pages, the broad tale spans hundreds of years and moves along at a generous pace, never once rushed. Chock-full of monsters, epic battles, magic and shenanigans, each encounter along our heroes' journey is as delightful as the last.A joy to read for both adults and children & highly recommended.
Review by AHS-Wolfy
The story of how Monkey became a king, learned great power, earned the title of Great Sage - Equal of Heaven, caused such mischief and mayhem that he was entombed beneath a mountain for 500 years before being released to accompany and protect Tripitaka on a pilgrimage to India to bring back scriptures to lead the Chinese people on the path to true enlightenment. Can Monkey, with the help of another two rascals that are recruited along the way and a dragon who is turned into a horse, shield the young priest from the many dangers and trials that he will face on their journey to the west?The original tale is a sprawling epic of immense length and the translator's, Arthur Waley, introduction tells how this abridged version "omits many episodes, but translating those that are retained almost in full, leaving out, however, most of the incidental passages in verse, which go very badly into English" and it works very well. The inclusion of more of these incidents probably would have made the tale too repetitive as many of them are quite formulaic and follow the same pattern. It is also quite episodic in nature and so could be read in small doses quite easily though some chapters end with a cliffhanger which will be resolved in the next. This is an amusing, somewhat satirical adventure story that pokes fun at the bureaucratic establishment. While some understanding of Chinese culture and allegory would add to the understanding of what is contained in this book it's not at all requisite to enjoying what is on offer.

Top 3 Clipless Cycling Pedals for Beginners | Reviews & Options
What are some good, clipless bicycle pedals for beginner riders?
Getting the right pedal is crucial for beginners. Your pedals are an important interface between rider and bike. Your pedals are the most crucial contact point with the bike for developing power through the cranks. Therefore, getting the right pair for your riding should be a top priority for any road cyclist, regardless of your experience or riding ability.
Also called 'clip-in' or 'step-in' cycling pedals, they affix your shoes firmly to the pedals, letting you focus on your speed, cadence and terrain rather than your grip on the cranks. They're intimidating to try out, but with the right set you'll be hooked.
A good set of beginner clipless cycling pedals should be easy to clip in and out of, yet capable enough to provide an enjoyable ride and last a long time.
This article will do two things: first, it will suggest some great clip-in cycling shoes with easy features and good durability. Secondly, I'll make a shoe suggestion to match with the pedal. We'll focus on inexpensive, affordable components only.
Ready to check out a few of the easiest clipless pedals for beginners? Keep on scrolling down.
(If you're interested in learning more about the basics of clipless cycling, how to use them, and how they work, please feel free to check out this earlier article on the technology and history.)
Review #1: Shimano M324, Good, Easy Clipless Pedals with Double-Sided Benefits
If you're extremely worried about your ability to clip in and out of your pedals, and your commute to work means a large amount of stop-start cycling in traffic, you might want to consider Shimano's very versatile M324 pedals.
The M324 features both a flat side for when you feel uncomfortable riding whilst clipped in, and on the reverse a Shimano SPD cleat mechanism to use when you feel comfortable with it. This dual option gives a rider the best of both worlds.
The Shimano M324 is a great clipless pedal system for beginners, and will allow the rider to upgrade to a double sided SPD pedal in future without the need to change shoes or pedal cleats. The M324's SPD cleats use Shimano's 2 bolt mounting system so it's always best to check before purchasing a pair of cycling specific shoes that they will be compatible.
The M324 is a great pedal teamed with Shimano's MT33 cycling shoe. The MT33 gives the impression of being a sturdy hiking shoe or sports shoe to help blend in with a recreational cyclist's everyday wardrobe. Not only does it look great, but it performs well too. It's definitely one to consider.
Recap: Usable with or without clipless shoes, simple and affordable, wide platform, very popular.
Review #2: Crank Brothers Candy 1, A Great First Clipless Pedal for Mountain Bikers
Those anxieties over whether you'll be able to get your foot clipped into the pedals whilst mountain biking can be alleviated by picking up a pair of Crank Brothers' impressive Candy 1 pedals. Crank Brothers Candy pedals are pretty unique in that they offer 4-sided access so you should have no need to worry over whether your traditional double sided pedal is positioned to allow you to clip in.
By offering four-sided entry to engage with the pedals it should make clipping in a whole lot easier. The Candy series of pedals also feature a composite protective outer casing to help protect the mechanism against damage.
The Candy 1 is also available in a selection of colours to easily match with your bike. Furthermore, its cleats are compatible with 2 bolt mountain bike shoes such as Mavic's Pulse. The Pulse would be an excellent mountain biking shoe for beginners and intermediate riders looking for comfort and performance on a relative tight budget.
The Mavic Pulse features a grippy, aggressive sole for those hard to ride sections where you have to swallow your pride and get off to push. The shoe features highly breathable synthetic and mesh uppers and 3 Velcro closure straps to allow adjustment on the go. The Pulse is a great beginner mountain bike shoe and its primarily black colour scheme will help ensure the shoes come up looking like new after all the muddy abuse you inflict on them.
Recap: Four sides make clipping in a snap, colourful pedals match your style, durable and mountain ready
Review #3: Shimano R540, Among the Best Road Bike Pedals for Beginners
For beginners looking for a reliable and relatively inexpensive clip-in road bike pedal, the Shimano R540 pedal could be the right choice. Its adjustable tension makes for an easy-to-use, novice-friendly road cycling pedal. And fortunately, this pedal can just as easily be used by a far more experienced rider without deterioration in performance.
The R540 offers a large, reassuring platform for a rider to engage with and includes a reliable pedal with high quality bearings that will offer the user long term performance. This product has the performance of a high-end pedal with the only trade off being slightly more weight in comparison. It's also a widely-used and very popular pedal, meaning that it won't likely go obsolete on you.
The R540 pedal will work fantastically when teamed with Pearl Izumi's feature packed Select RD III road shoes, which offer exceptional performance thanks to a stiff, efficient sole designed to transfer as much energy as possible into forward motion for the rider.
Meanwhile, the shoe is designed with comfort in mind with an anatomical closure system that reduces pressure and heat spots. It's a nice, inexpensive choice, and combined these two items are a good clipless pedal system for newbies and entry-level riders.
Recap: Wide platform, popular system, exceptional longevity, great bearings
Have any suggestions that I missed? What do you ride on? What did you learn on? Feel free to leave a comment in the section below!
