"Worst hospital for elderly in uk"
About: University Hospital Of North Durham University Hospital Of North Durham Durham DH1 5TW
Posted via NHS Choices
Durham hospital is the worst hospital that I have unfortunately been involved with . My 78 year old father had cancer and was in bishop Auckland and Darlington hospital before being taken to Durham. Not only did they neglect him and allow him to seriously hurt himself to the point that he was unconscious for several days. They also where lazy, using guess work instead of doing the correct scans to diagnose his problem. Please do not use this hospital especially if you have an elderly relative, they simply do not care.

Board Releases Review of BC's Forest Planning
Victoria -Fundamental changes to the way forest development is planned in B.C. are recommended in a report released today by the Forest Practices Board. The report concludes the board's provincewide review of the forest development planning process. Forest development plans are prepared by individual forest companies and the Ministry of Forests' Small Business Forest Enterprise Program.
The board is recommending that government develop plans to manage a full range of forest resources at the "landscape" or "watershed" level, rather than at the cutblock level.
"These plans would provide strategies and measures for protecting all forest resources in the area of the plan," said board Chair Bill Cafferata. "The public would have to be consulted in development of the landscape unit plans, and would have the opportunity to comment on the objectives for the full range of forest resources including timber, water, fish, wildlife, and recreation."
"Once these landscape unit plans are in place, foresters will not have to 'reinvent the wheel' every time they prepare a forest development plan. They can focus on proposing roads and cutblocks that meet the strategies and measures already agreed to in the landscape unit plan," said Cafferata.
So, if it ever comes back, what should our Planning Framework look like? Maybe something like this which I suggested to the Minister (based on the proven CRMP approach):
1. Legislation and policy
2. Land Use Designations (ie. parks, working forest)
3. Resource Management Planning (landscape unit)
4. Operational Planning (ie. site plans)
(Forest Stewardship Plans are really just detailed tenure documents which touch on all of the above levels)


text: Hi, I'm currently in the process of building my new home, and while it has a dedicated HT, I'd also like to take advantage of DVD-A and DTS Audio on my living room. I'll soon post pictures of my living room. It's trapezoidal in shape, with one of the walls made of stone and the rest of them made of bricks, with vaulted ceilings decorated with oven-heated bricks (the closest style I could say it is, is modern-mexican). Anyway, I was thinking about installing my MartinLogan system there, too, so I am currently thinking about hiding my 6.1 system either on the corners of the roof, or built into the walls. The speakers I'll use are Definitive Technology ProMonitor 80's all around. The subs will be a pair of Definitive Technology ProSub100's. I have a couple of questions, though... + Mexican construction techniques are very different to US' ones. So myy house has concrete pillars, brick walls all around and stone (earthquake proof, I hope). Any changes I make to the walls have to be made now in order to run the cables through conducts throughout the walls. + So I am wondering, if I wall-mount my DefTechs (using the included baffle, of course) will I hurt their sound quality much? I know there's a tonal change from mounting them flush with the walls, but I don't know exactly how much would it be. + Would I be better off by installing them in the corners of my roof and aiming them at the seating area? They wouldn't look that integrated, but if I can get away with some extra fidelity, I'm all for it. TIA Javier.

Ellen is a happily married 41-year old mom who chases after her 7-year old son and a 4-year old daughter. Originally from the Jersey Shore and a Rutgers College graduate, Ellen has been in CT since 1994 to complete her graduate work at UCONN.
Obesity was Ellen's reality for a long time. After traditional dieting failed, Ellen faced the reality that only a permanent lifestyle change would get her into shape. This pivotal moment helped her shed an amazing 70 pounds. Now she doesn't look back at her childhood years wistfully, because she's in the best shape and health of her life.
This comes at a cost. Waking up at 5 am before the kiddos do, Ellen's exercise runs the gamut from yoga to interval weight training to running to hula hooping! Not one to slack, Ellen turns her desk job into action by walking 2 miles during her lunch break. As a way to survive the expense of having 2 children, Ellen's family made a decision to stop eating out which resulted in much creativity in cooking delicious low fat and healthy meals that her entire family enjoys, except her very finicky daughter.
As a result of this change in her family's lifestyle, Ellen's husband joined her and lost an amazing 50 pounds along the way! Their entire dating life has changed when they discovered their love for dancing to live music instead of eating out in restaurants.
These blogs are Ellen's testament to the joy and rewards her healthy lifestyle has brought to her family.

Flybe parts company with chief executive Saad Hammad
Flybe has parted company with chief executive Saad Hammad by "mutual agreement".
Mr Hammad joined the regional airline in August 2013, but the firm has struggled financially - booking a £35.6 million loss last year before swinging back into a £2.7 million profit in 2016.
Flybe said that chairman Simon Laffin will assume the role of executive chairman until a new chief executive is appointed.
Mr Laffin said: "The board would like to thank Saad for his energy and drive which has been a major contributor towards Flybe's transformation over the last three years.
"Whilst the whole aviation industry faces a challenging market environment, Flybe remains well placed.
"Our strategy remains to focus on regional routes and to provide an excellent service to our customers."
The company said that it is actively looking for Mr Hammad's replacement.
Mr Hammad added: "Now is the right time for me to move on to a fresh challenge. I would like to thank all company employees for their hard work, passion and commitment and wish them all the best."

Surfing is nothing without nature.
At the Noosa Festival of Surfing, we are proud to have been involved in establishing Noosa as a National Surfing Reserve, protected from development and destruction and preserved so that future generations may enjoy tomorrow what we cherish today.
We're not a bunch of hippies. We don't eat mung beans or wear hemp clothing or have dreadlocks – at least, most of us don't! But we do believe that this environment is precious. We know the importance of reducing, reusing and recycling and we are prepared to step forward and take responsibility for our actions.
To this end, we have taken the following steps to make the Noosa Festival of Surfing as sustainable as we can, protecting the beautiful surroundings that give us 365 Days of Pure Stoke.
Provision Of Recycling Bins
Every year, we organise the provision of both waste and recycling bins by Noosa Council, emptied daily throughout the event. With the assistance of Surfrider Foundation Sunshine Coast and our diligent commentary team, we regularly encourage all attendees to be aware of their own trash, as well as that of the less considerate visitors to the venue.
Efforts to Reduce Environmental Damage
We plan our event with significant consideration to the location, minimising the risk of natural areas, such as lawn and grassed areas, the shoreline and the wooded areas. We arrange infrastructure to enhance this, diverting foot traffic to prevent these places becoming damaged or used as thoroughfares.
These measures drastically reduce the need for regeneration or rehabilitation after the event.
Tank Water & Refillable Bottles
Every one of our 700 competitors receives a welcome pack. In previous years, this has intentionally included a reusable water bottle and a filtered water filling station has been installed onsite, encouraging guests to reuse their bottles rather than purchase water in single-use bottles.

Promotion of Healthy Eating & Lifestyle
Surfing is the foundation of a healthy lifestyle, and one that enhances environmental awareness. At the Noosa Festival we go one step further, encouraging our visitors and competitors to get involved with daily yoga workshops, Zumba, beach clean-ups and various activities that address personal health and wellbeing, but also an appreciation of a cleaner, more sustainable lifestyle.
Sustainable Marketing
With such a huge amount of marketing and information to convey, the Noosa Festival of Surfing has gone to significant lengths to reduce the amount of paper used. Double-sided flyers, programs printed to be kept as souvenirs, and the use of electronic marketing and communication wherever possible have all greatly reduced the quantity of paper used.
We are constantly reviewing and assessing the impact of our sponsors as well, refusing to accept paper advertising for competitor gift bags and helping to bring an increased awareness of waste reduction throughout the annual Festival Village.
Encouraging Ethical Practice
We work closely with our suppliers, sponsors and vendors in every aspect of the Noosa Festival of Surfing's creation and development, always searching for new ways to increase sustainability and reduce environmental impact. Working with environmental causes, such as Sea Shepherd and the Sunshine Coast chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, we bring attention, both through the event itself and our social media network, the numerous issues.
We also encourage sponsors to take a more ecological approach, reducing the usage of single-use waste and utilising products that promote reuse or natural, less chemical-based options, such as sunscreens.
Minimising Power
There is a necessity for significant electricity consumption to allow the festival to function efficiently and professionally. Sound systems, computers, monitors and timers are all essential for the judging alone, and our evening entertainment is also dependent on electricity. But in every area of the festival's infrastructure we endeavour to be as efficient and limited on electricity consumption as possible, opting for reduced lighting, minimal supply for stallholders and ensuring that power is used only when absolutely necessary.
Traffic Management
With very limited parking and to alleviate congestion within Noosa Heads' CBD, as well as to reduce emissions and pollution, we have a team of full-time traffic controllers to allow for efficient and effective use of parking spaces available. International competitors and visitors are directed towards accommodation within walking proximity to the festival, while those staying further afield are directed to the town's efficient Park and Ride system and excellent public transport network.
We know we're not perfect, but we are always striving for better ways to improve and reduce our environmental footprint. Partnering with ecological causes and brands, looking for ways to minimise waste – such as limiting single-use products and utilising biodegradable packaging – and increasing the public awareness are just the beginning.
If you or our business would like to join the Noosa Festival of Surfing as an Ecological Partner, or if you have any good ideas of ways to create a more sustainable festival, please contact email@example.com.
It is the responsibility of us all to make the change and protect the environments, so that future generations can continue to enjoy this paradise we call home.

Brasilintime: Batucada com Discos Trailer (2007)
13 November 2007 Factual, Music 116 mins
Brasilintime is a filmic map that connects the world of Rio de Janeiro of the late teens to the South Bronx of the early 70s. The roads from Samba through Bossa Nova to Hip Hop are a complex web of musical whispers and echoes. Brasilintime is a 2-hour documentary that traverses this journey. In November of 2002, drummers and DJs traveled to Sao Paulo Brazil to expand the multi-generational conversation to include their counterparts from the world of Samba, Bossa Nova and Samba Rock, as well as the best new talent from Brazilian Hip Hop. This show was recorded and became the basis for this DVD. Brasilintime speaks the language of the music it addresses.

Michel Foucault [ 1926 - 1984 ] was a Frenchman, academic and political subversive. He was also a communist but didn't take to Stalin's enthusiasm for mass murder. He went the other way regarding communism among other things. His claims about whatever were not really based on common sense. He was however Homosexual who used LSD and was heavily involved in sadism & masochism in San Francisco. AIDS was what finished him off. Stupidity was fatal.
His output was very effective at convincing quasi-intellectuals that he had something worth saying. It seems that Frenchmen who go down this road have to be first class wafflers to get any where.
One of his wheezes was objecting to "social constructs" which means inter alia denying that man and woman are valid classifications. Ditto for criminal and political activist. I could go along with that one. Anyone swallowing this kind of tosh is an arrogant fool who is not bright enough to know when he has been taken for a ride. There seem to be a lot of them in important positions.
He was influenced by Louis Althusser which does nothing for his credibility. His entry in the Wikipedia is much more sympathetic but gets round his stupidity by talking round it. See Michel Foucault. He has been criticized by Charles Taylor, Jürgen Habermas, Jacques Derrida, Nancy Fraser and Slavoj Žižek.

33 Reasons Cosplay is Art
- Categories: Anime, Galleries
- Date: Apr 17, 2011 16:25 JST
- Tags: 2ch, Cosplay, Fine Art, Image Gallery, Photography, Photoshop
master roshi is badman
Best Cosplay EVER.
Master Roshi FTW ^_^
And 3 Kuronekos in a row?
I can die a happy otaku now!
An art is an art, but I would totally stick my dick into one of those artistic girl's poopers.
Fuck morals.
Jessie and James LOL
On a slightly more serious side (or funnier side), their cosplay page is filled with niche characters all done in meticulous detail. They're like the Russian Tomia!:
in Russia, you not cosplaying anime, but anime cosplaying you! 0_o
A Russian should cosplay the russian loli from Rizelmine. Or Ilyasviel.
In russia if you have russian natonality you're deported...
Meticulous detail is precisely what cosplay needs these days.
Too much crappy costumes being made for the reason that "it's only for fun". Personally, I don't give a crap if it's for fun or not - You do something, you do something well. Or not do it at all. There is no try.
Wow just wow the attention to detail is superb and both of them are really cute and in some cosplays just down right gorgeous.
yes, they're russian.
I recently came across a few relatively realistic portrayals of Phoenix Wright that I thought was profoundly loltastic.
really liked ff vii, fate/stay night, and death note cosplay :D
Cosplay is art, it is not any functionally different than any other live display of acting. The clothing is just a given with acting/modeling.
It can't be art, be the only reason that the cosplayer has no integrity of his work.
"It is through art and art alone people discovers the beauty of life."
-Oscar Wilde
"To be true and fine and moist and sticky and lovely, one has to believe that he or she is true and fine and moist and sticky and lovely."
-Stephen Fry in how to be gorgeous
I see they are doing a fine job.
MOAR of pic 001!
yesh! more of that fox girl please though actually I have seen her somewhere b4, isnt she a model for nude magazine or somethin? XD
her name is Elle B. from Met-Art. Those ears and tail were photoshopped in.
Which is 04?
Most amazing douch'e bag ever. I am so happy they did such a good job w/ it XD.
I fully agree. I think this is actually the first time I've seen Beatrice consplayed, and the results aren't bad. I wish there was a better background, though, it's not that impressive without any atmophere.
Oh my, those horo, kuroneko, and saber cosplay were pretty epic.
That Kuroneko was so spot on... if 2D kuroneko came to life that is EXACTLY how she would look
Number 9 was the best hahaha
kuroneko, saber and robin def awesome :)
I would love to see more of this cosplay from pic 001 :)
So where are the reasons?
I'm going to say the only one reason why cosplay is NOT art: The cosplayer has no integrity of the work.
I love cosplays, and all that, but is not art.
The last must have be the Legendary Tao Pai Pai pic... that's the best cosplay I have seen ever!
Nice eye candy, but most of them aren't exactly "artistic." Nice try though.
Whoa, there are white people here? Artefact, I expect more racism out of you! Shame shame.
It's art because once the costume and makeup come off, they are ugly as hell!
Ok where can I buy the Full Metal Gear Costume!
Cigarette not included.. lol .. triti
So the answer is to calclify stuff
It all makes sense now ^_^
It's snake He just takes out a badguy for a pack XD
I want to suck #9's tits !!
Seems to me like Kamen Roshi is a popular choice, don't know why. Maybe he's easy and distinct, maybe he's memorable, maybe people just like his character :)
Art? Eeeh... maybe. But I call it a very lonely waste of time and money.
aren't some of these HEAVILY photoshopped? shinku's face looks shopped in.
I found the first pic arousing and disturbing at the same time.
I like the variety.
And cosplay is an art. It combines the art of photography and fashion design.
No it doesn't. The fashion design is not made by the cosplayer, they are merely attempts to copy fashion already made.
It's a show of craftsmanship for sure, but cosplayers are as much artists as the worker grunt who put together a building following blueprint. The architect of the building might be called an artist, but the carpenter, no. Same thing with cosplay, the character designer who made the fashions and designs might be an artist, the cosplayer however is just a carpenter following a blueprint.
Nor is the photography something that is integral to cosplay. That cosplayers sometimes get photographed doesn't make them artists, you could just as well claim that the police profession is artistic because you took a few photographs of a traffic warden.
Holy shiiiii..
That's some friggin GREAT cosplay!
Can you even call the Horo one cosplay? It's just a picture of a naked girl, and the ears and tail were shopped on. I know it's common to enhance cosplay pics with some shopping action, and that's fine, but in this case there is literally nothing cosplay about the original pic.
Three kuronekos in succession......'tis the finest art of all!

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 546982
cant boot f12 ppc netinst
Last modified: 2010-12-03 20:45:01 EST
Description of problem:
Cant boot f12 ppc netinst
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. burn f12 netinst.iso
2. put into cdrom
3. $ qemu-system-ppc -boot d -hda ppc1.img -cdrom '/dev/cdrom'
Actual results:
Cant find yaboot.conf
Expected results:
Anaconda installer on display.
Additional info:
Not really sure if this a qemu bug, or a f12ppc iso image. Got the same result with a debian ppc iso so i a presume its qemu. I managed to load the kernel but it also ends with a kernel panic (other bug?)
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Looks like a duplicate of bug 545328. You actually CAN get it to boot, but the installer crashes almost immediately.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora
'version' of '12'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.
Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this
bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version,
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes

Sadie Wynn doesn't want a new life; her old one suits her just fine. But times are hard in drought-plagued Missouri, and Daddy thinks they'll be better off in Texas. Sadie hates this strange new place, where even children must work at the cannery to help make ends meet and people are rude to her disabled father.
Yet when trouble comes, it is the kindness of these new neighbors that helps the family make it through. And no one helps more than Dollie, a red-headed chatterbox of a girl who just might become a good friend - if Sadie gives her half a chance.

Seydisfjordur HI Hostel Seidisfjoerdur Reviews
32 reviews
Sep 04, 2005
Seydisfjordur HI Hostel is the only hostel in Seydisfjordur. There is little to do in the town of Seydisfjordur. Most people passing through are here to catch the ferry to Europe.
Like all HI Hostels, the Seydisfjordur HI Hostel is clean, relatively quiet, and provides all the essentials. This hostel provides laundry facilities, a kitchen, a computer with internet for hire, and a tv room. Like all Iceland hostels, the Seydisfjordur hostel is relatively small (28 beds). The community areas are quite small and might be extremely tight when the hostel is full.
Seydisfjordur is a small town therefore everything should be within walking distance of the dorm. Right down the road from the hostel is the famous Vestular Hike that leads up into the mountains along side a series of waterfalls. A must for anyone who has a few hours of free time while in town.

Original paper
Mountain birch and mountain birch woodland in NW Europe
Hämet-Ahti, L.
Phytocoenologia Band 15 Heft 4 (1987), p. 449 - 453
40 references
published: Dec 8, 1987
DOI: 10.1127/phyto/15/1987/449
ArtNo. ESP024001504001, Price: 29.00 €
A very pronounced feature of Northwest European vegetation is the climax mountain birch woodland that is widely covering the slopes of mountains and often forming altitudinal timberline. Throughout most of the northern hemisphere birches (Betula) are species of second-growth forests, and both the horizontal and the altitudinal timberlines are normally formed by coniferous tree species rather than broad-leaved trees. In the following a brief review is given in order to clarify the position of the mountain birch woodland from the points of view of phytogeography and phytosociology, including some reconsiderations of the taxonomy of the mountain birch Betula pubescens subsp. czerepanovii (Orlova) Hämet-Ahti, comb. nova.

Barrett Bus Drivers Heading to Richmond "Rodeo"
K.W. Barrett Elementary School bus driver and bus assistant Rosa Smith and Temir Belchek placed first in the APS school bus rodeo in mid-April. Smith and Belchek will compete at the state competition in Richmond in June.
I'll admit to not even knowning of the rodeo--it's a national event. Idaho, for instance, had to cancel their state tourney this year, so winners of the the local events have the shot directly at the national title. --ST:

Check it out: Today's Weekend Gazette features a full page (A7) of letters to
the Editor and a guest Column in support of our communities improvements to the
bike trail network. These letters are written in response to recent weeks of
letters to the Editor criticizing the construction the new bike bridge over
Route 10. Thank you to the people who wrote letters! If you support the
trails, it is important to take the time to write to your local newspapers and
explain why you support these improvements to our community.
You might want to know that our community was ready:
The bridge and the new trail improvements were made possible because of your
civic support of bike trails and the hard work of our city planner, Wayne
Fieden, and new Federal stimulus dollars. Northampton had in place a long range
plan for developing a trail network throughout our city. With your help,
Northampton Trails and Greenways over the past five years helped fund the design
work (blue prints) needed before these plans could be submitted for funding, a
process that typically takes years. When federal stimulus dollars became
available for "shovel ready" projects, Northampton was able to JUMP because we
had completed plans, and thus our projects received funding. This bridge not
only improved our community but it help get people back to work.
Having a trail network in our community that links to places we want to travel
to is a benefit for us all.
– Safe paths encourage more people to choose walking and biking over driving
– Children walking and biking to safely school develop healthy, life long habits
of exercising. Kids who exercise daily concentrate better at school.
– Beautiful trails improve the quality of life in our community, and a high
quality of life attracts employers and jobs to our community
– Biking and walking improves our health, and a healthier community saves money
on healthcare
– Moving people from car to biking and walking improves our planet's health
Why do you support the new trail development in Northampton? Do you have a
personal story or point of view that you are willing to voice in your community
newspaper? This beautiful weekend, would you please enjoy the trails, and then
take a minute to write and add your vote of support for our trails? Letters to
the Editor of the Daily Hampshire Gazzette can be submitted to:
P.S. One letter in opposition wrote that the "Big Bridge is the Valley's 'Big
Dig'": Just to put that into perspective, you might interested to know that the
total pricetag for the Big Dig in Boston was $14.6 billion. This project
stretched 3.5 miles, which works out to $4.171 billion per mile, or slightly
less than a million dollars ($790,000) per foot. The bridge over route 10 is
part of the new 2.7 mile long cycling and walking route that connects
Northampton and Easthampton as part of a $3.8 million project and the bridge
cost nearly half of it. For me, this is a wise investment in our future.

When designing a communication device for seniors, Geof Auchinleck, CEO of Claris Healthcare, said the goal was to make something easy to use, as many in that age group are technophobes.
"One of the problems with traditional laptops or tablets… is it's much too easy to get sucked down the rabbit hole and lost," Auchinleck said. "You've got an old family member you've tried to get to use a tablet – the phone calls 'My mail's disappeared again. Where's that button I'm supposed to press?' All the support and stuff becomes a nightmare."
His answer was the Claris Companion, a socialization device for the elderly. Wrapped in bamboo, the 10-inch Android tablet uses a customized, locked-down interface, offers specific services which can be configured from a website, so that the user doesn't get lost in a sea of programs.
From the website, the family member or caregiver can upload pictures to turn the device into a digital picture frame. He or she can also create a list of contacts that can send e-mails and text messages to the device.
On the tablet, you just see a desktop background, which can consist of the uploaded photos, and large, circular buttons, displaying the configured services.
If the tablet user wishes to respond to a message, Auchinleck said, he or she simply taps the reply button and a virtual keyboard appears and they can type back a response. If the message was an e-mail, it will come back as an e-mail and if it was a text message, it will come back as a text. But to the user both types of messages look the same on the screen.
"Everyone in this circle has to be invited," he added. "The Nigerian oil minister is not invited. He cannot send something to my mom. Only people whose emails are registered can send e-mails and receive messages back."
"There's a study out that says that for every day that an elderly person stays in a hospital bed, they lose 5% of their mental and physical function," Auchinleck explained. "So keeping them home a little bit longer makes a huge difference for people."
The caregiver can set reminders for his or her loved one to take medication and can schedule other events through the website, which pushes them as notifications to the device. If the user skips the notification, Auchinleck said, an alert can be sent to the caregiver.
The user can also take advantage of an exercise button on the device which plays an exercise video, especially designed for seniors.
"Exercise is something that is really, really important that we discovered for seniors staying at home," COO Paul Sharman explained.
Studies have indicated that exercise is important for staving off dementia, Sharman said.
Auchinleck added the device will also provide access to medical how-to videos, which would show, for example, how to properly use your glucometer to test your blood.
In the future, Auchinlek will incorporate video conferencing to allow for virtual doctors' clinics as well as for talking to family members.
"We're trying to bring everybody together and really create a circle of care around somebody who's trying to live at home for as long as possible," Sharman added.
The average age of the Claris Companion user is 84 years old. It comes in both Wi-Fi and 4G models. The 4G model comes with either a two-year contract for $199 with a $69 monthly fee. Or you can get the flexible plan for $649 and a $49 monthly free. The monthly charge covers the data plan.
The Wi-Fi version comes with a two-year contract for $99 with a $59 monthly fee, $549 for no contract and a $39 monthly fee and, for a limited time, $995 and no monthly fee.

Mike Madill was named the third head coach/general manager in Las Vegas Wranglers history on April 26, 2013.
In five seasons as a player with the Wranglers, Madill recorded 131 points (24g-105a) in 336 games, making him the club record holder for all-time games played. While playing under both former Wranglers head coaches Glen Gulutzan and Ryan Mougenel, the 30-year-old helped guide two different teams to the Kelly Cup Finals – with Gulutzan in 2008 and Mougenel in 2012. Las Vegas went to the playoffs every season with Madill in the lineup, which included winning the Pacific Division in 2008 and two Bruce Taylor Trophies as the Western Conference champions in 2008 and 2012. His leadership ability earned him team captain status for his final two seasons (2011-13) in a Wranglers uniform.
Madill was named to the ECHL 2007 All-Star Game in his first professional season with the Texas Wildcatters. Going overseas with the Asia League's Nippon Paper Cranes in 2010-11, Madill posted five goals and 19 points on his way to earning Best Defensive Defenseman of the Asia League honors that year.
The Kirkland, Quebec native spent four years (2002-06) at St. Lawrence University. In his senior year, Madill was named both team captain and the NCAA's Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Best Defensive Defenseman for 2005-06. The blueliner tallied 14 goals and 63 points in 154 games with the Saints.

Developing Treatment, Treatment Validation and Treatment Scope in the Setting of an Autism Clinical Trial
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Dr. Sherie Novotny of the Department of Psychiatry at UMDNJ-RWJMS and collaborators are starting a treatment trial to determine whether Docosa Hexanoic Acid(DHA), the major omega-3 fatty acid found in the brain and a component of fish oil, has any effects on the symptoms of autism.
We propose to carry out a trial to test the effect of DHA compared to a placebo (a pill with no drug in it) on several aspects of autism in children and adolescents, in a 12-week clinical study with children or adolescents in the age group of 5-17 with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Additionally this trial will study genes related to the therapeutic agent, DHA, and biomarkers related to DHA in the urine.
|Dietary Supplement: Placebo Dietary Supplement: Docosahexanoic Acid
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Developing Treatment, Treatment Validation and Treatment Scope in the Setting of an Autism Clinical Trial
- Amelioration of phenotypic features of autism [ Time Frame: three years ]Amelioration of phenotypic features of autism as measured by a significant decrease from the baseline, in global severity of autism score and Aberrant Behavior Checklist scores
- oxidative stress biomarkers [ Time Frame: Three years ]
We will be measuring isoprostane 8-iso-PGF2a.
The measurements will be in ng mg Creatinine and we expect a significant decrease in levels from the baseline.
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|November 2010
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|December 2017
|Primary Completion Date:
|November 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
|Active Comparator: Docosa Hexanoic Acid
Dietary Supplement: Docosahexanoic Acid
The volunteers will start on the 200 mg daily of the DHA capsule and will not increase their dose during the study.
Other Name: DHA
|Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Dietary Supplement: Placebo
The volunteers will start on the 200 mg daily of the placebo and will not increase their dose during the study.
Detailed Description:
Growing evidence supports oxidative stress may contribute to autism. Docosa Hexanoic Acid(DHA)is a normal substance that is present in large amounts in the brain and can be used by the body to produce natural antioxidants. Our hope is that supplementing DHA in individuals with autism may improve some aspects of their functioning. Specifically our aims are:
Aim 1. To assess the effect of DHA vs. placebo treatment on the global severity of child and adolescent autistic disorder, via a 12-week double blind placebo-controlled parallel study. Global severity will be assessed by the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-Generic (ADOS-G) and additionally in younger children by the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale.
Aim 2. To assess the effect of DHA vs. placebo treatment on behavioral symptoms and functional ability in children with autism. Assessment will be by the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC)-Community Version11.
Aim 3. To develop an improved protocol and study design based upon these studies for future large scale studies of DHA in the autistic population.
Aim 4. Monitor the effects of therapy on the isoprostane biomarker. Aim 5: Develop additional biomarkers that correlate with autism and with therapy. We will extend the analyses to neuroprostanes and resolvins. We will measure: (i) Urinary excretion of the isoprostane metabolites, 2,3 Dinor-5,6 dihydro-PGF2t and iPF4α-VI. (ii) DHA derived resolvins D2, D4, D5 and D6 and neuroprotectin.
Aim 6: Confirm our preliminary results by correlating increased isoprostane excretion with GSTM1*0 copy number in individuals with autism.
Aim 7: In the same way, correlate GSTM1*0 copy number with response to therapy assessed by diminution of isoprostane excretion during therapy.
Aim 8: Study additional biomarkers developed through Hypothesis #2 for correlation with GSTM1*0 copy number and response to therapy to identify additional gene-biomarker correlations.
Aim 9: Study additional polymorphisms of genes related to DHA metabolism, for association with autism, gene-biomarker correlations, and correlation with response to therapy.

Situated in an impressively renovated gun and tackle shop in a small plaza along Maybank across from the Fat Hen, the Irish-style pub is a dimly lit tavern with a U-shaped bar and several cozy seating areas with handmade wooden tables and chairs. Kieran, a native of northeastern Ireland, has worked at Muse and Charleston Grill. He tends bar nightly, serving an array of fine whiskeys, gins, wines, exotic cocktails, and microbrewed and imported ales and lagers dispensed from custom-made tap handles.
The name (pronounced "shon-a-key") refers to a traditional Irish storyteller. There are no TVs in the pub. Instead, the bar offers a small library of books, ornate chess boards, and weekly live acoustic music as entertainment. Non-members are welcome on music nights. Celtic-themed acoustic sessions take place every other Wednesday from 6-8 p.m. Local folk, bluegrass, and jazz groups perform at 7 p.m. on Fridays and occasional Saturdays.

Earlier this week, we stopped in to Proof, King Street's newest watering hole. Located in a former to-go pita place at 437 King, it's a joint venture between the owners of the TBonz Restaurant Group and Craig Nelson, who worked at the West Ashley Pearlz for four years.
Though it's been touted as a cocktail bar, it offers a little something for every palate, from $1.75 PBRs to artisanal cocktails to tasty bar snacks. With its dark burgundy walls and long community tables, the place feels a little like Raval (R.I.P.), which is no surprise — Nelson worked there years ago, and he says he wanted to bring elements of various places he's worked to Proof.
To sip, there are the aforementioned cheap cans of beer (for the late night F&B crowd) as well as more "real good beers," each with its own helpful description on the menu. The Grand Teton Bitch Creek "has more medals than Michael Phelps" and the Avery Out of Bounds is "practically Maalox." As for the cocktails, we enjoyed Le Gin et Le Juice, a blend of Tanqueray, Ricard, Peychaud's Bitters, and grapefruit juice ($8) as well as le Club Fez Aperitif: Lillet Blanc with blood orange bitters ($7.50). That one's a nod to Fez, another of Nelson's former ventures.
The regularly-changing menu is scrawled onto a chalkboard over the bar, and it's full of great bar food that's been kicked up a notch. Wild Olive chef Jacques Larson helped put together the menu, which includes a few skewered foods like big fat meatballs in savory marinara sauce (2 for $5) and sugary sweet fried doughnut bites ($5). There's also currently a nice trio of dips served in cute little mason jars, including a boiled peanut hummus, decadent duck rillettes, and some tasty pimento cheese — Nelson's wife's own recipe. You'll also find jars of pickled eggs on the bar — a nice touch from Larson — and for $1.50, you might as well try one. They're served with a dollop of mustard and a pepper shaker, and they taste a little like salt and vinegar chips.
Nelson says business has been good so far — they've had a line out the door the last few weekends. Stop by to see what they're all about.
When I was speaking with Dan Latimer, the general manager of Husk, for this week's article on the Southern bourbon boom, he told me the story behind the empty bourbon barrel that now adorns the bar at Husk. It's a genuine Pappy Van Winkle barrel, and, no, it did not start off empty.
Back in the fall of 2010, as he was preparing to open Husk, executive chef Sean Brock — a long-time Pappy Van Winkle zealot — got in touch with Julian Van Winkle III to secure a large supply of Van Winkle bourbon for the restaurant. He ended up acquiring a full barrel of the stuff, and even as barrels of Pappy Van Winkle go Husk's is a pretty special one.
When Julian Van Winkle's father, Julian Jr., started the Rip Van Winkle Distillery in the 1970s, he did so with a stash of whiskey that had been produced at the Stitzel-Weller Distillery. That was the distillery created by Pappy Van Winkle himself and produced famous brands like W.L. Weller, Old Fitzgerald, and Rebel Yell before passing out of the family's control. Julian Jr. also bought up old inventory from other Kentucky distilleries and stored it away, using it to create their uniquely long-aged brand of bourbon.
Those old bourbon stocks couldn't last forever, though, and awhile back Julian Van Winkle III contracted with the Buffalo Trace Distillery to distill the wheated bourbon that now fills the Van Winkle barrels and will be used for the brand going forward.
The barrel that Brock acquired for Husk is one of the few remaining ones from the old Stitzel-Weller stock, making it a particularly historic vintage. Brock and crew bottled it with their own Husk special-edition label. Over the past year they've used up a good bit of it, Latimer says, and they're guarding the rest of it closely. They do, however, break out a bottle or two for a special occasion, and when they do it goes onto the back bar for the general public to order.
So, the next time you're at the bar at Husk, keep your eye out for the special-edition bottle of Pappy. It's quite literally a rare taste of bourbon history.
They have sold 60,000 cans of PBR so far this year, which breaks down to more than 200 cans sold per day.
Chris "Boston" Diamattia says he goes through about 65-70 cases a week. Recently, the PBR representative for the Southeast dropped by to take a look at the little place doing big volume. Boston says the rep was amazed, considering the size of the bar.
During happy hour (4-8 p.m.) at the Recovery Room, PBR is only $1.25. It's two bucks the rest of the time, which goes a long way toward explaining those sales.
The Pour House on James Island has the distinction of being number two in PBR sales. Not surprisingly, Charleston is the number one PBR market in S.C.
On St. Patrick's Day last week, I spent a good chunk of time with my family debating where we should go for dinner. Despite having eaten a corned beef and cabbage dinner a few nights earlier, we were in the mood for Irish fare — you know, shepherd's pie, bangers and mash, fish and chips.
We thought about going downtown, but knew the crowds would be out and rowdy. Not a good place to take the kids, even though it was still early. We ended up at Boulevard Diner eating decidedly non-pub food, despite the Guinness gravy on my pork chop.
Our conclusion at the end of the night: James Island really needs a pub.
Two days later, on my way to Publix, I saw a sign touting the arrival of O'Brion's Pub in the old Twizt location on Folly Road. The first O'Brion's is located in I'On (hence the i-o-n).
Fer cripes sakes, first Obama wins the White House and now this! How lucky can a girl get?
I talked to Brent, who will be managing the place, and got the details: lots of TVs, above average pub food (hell, I love average pub food), and 14 beers on tap!
Hells yes. They plan to start dry runs in a week or so, with the ultimate goal of being open in time for the NCAA championship game on April 6.
They've renovated the space, closing off the kitchen, putting in new floors, painting, and expanding the seating with new booths and tables.
The kitchen will be open everyday from 11 a.m.-10 p.m. and the bar will be open until 2 a.m.

the ongoing situation between the NFL and Players Association, which could ultimately mean no football this year, EA Sports president Peter Moore quelled doubts at a recent event. The situation will not affect his studio's hit football franchise's next installment, Madden NFL 12.
"We'll be shipping this year, regardless of what the labor issues are, whether they're resolved or not," Moore told a group of journalists during an EA Sports event last night in San Francisco. "Madden 12 will be shipping on August 30th 2011, regardless of what happens with the league itself." So, there you have it. You may not get to see your players hit the field in real-life this year, but you can rest assured you'll be seeing their virtual representations, right on schedule.

Who's who: seven party heavyweights named to China's Politburo core
Updated at 2.28pm
Comment from Jean-Pierre Cabestan, political science professor at Baptist University
"The leadership is divided. I'm not saying that they're not going to try anything. It's easier for them to move to a new growth model. I think they agree upon that and that won't be the hardest task. But I see a lot of political paralysis in terms of changing the political system. I don't see any headway.
"You push Wang Qishan to the [anti-corruption body]... he's being moved to a rather secondary position and he's the only rather reformist guy. The other ones are maybe modernizers, but I don't see them rocking the boat unless Xi Jinping demonstrates leadership and charisma and imposes his views on the rest of the leadership." (Reuters)

Zodiac matters
Chinese netizens have noticed that of the seven Standing Committee members, four are Cancers (Xi Jinping, Li Keqiang, Zhang Dejiang, Yu Zhengsheng), two are Scorpios (Zhang Dejiang, zhang Gaoli), while Yu Zhengsheng is the only Aries.
"Now I will try to give birth to a Cancer baby," said a Sina Weibo user.

The seven: Xi Jinping, Li Keqiang, Zhang Dejiang, Yu Zhengsheng, Liu Yunshan, Wang Qishan, Zhang Gaoli
Updated at 12.14pm
The meet-the-press session ended after a speech of less than 15 minutes by Xi. No other members of the new leadership spoke and no question-and-answer session was held.
Updated at 12.12pm
Within the party, there is serious corruption and violation of discipline and bureaucracy. The whole party must be on high alert, Xi said.
Updated at 12.08pm
Unlike previous leaders who all had heavy regional accents, Xi spoke in perfect Putonghua and relatively low and calm tone of voice.
Xi Jinping recounts China's modern history of humiliation and defeat and how the Communist Party rejuvenated China.

Vice-President Xi Jinping has been appointed chief of China's military after a pivotal party congress that saw him become head of the ruling Communist Party, state media reported.
The appointment means outgoing Chinese leader Hu Jintao stands down as chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC) -- a powerful position that his predecessor Jiang Zemin had clung to for two years after Hu was made president. (AFP)

Hong Kong journalist Rose Luqiu Luwei just wrote on her Weibo that she saw seven spots marked in black on the red carpet where the members of the new Politburo Standing Committee are supposed to stand when they greet press in an hour. Her original post was removed within minutes. This seems to confirm earlier reports that the Party would reduce Standing Committee seats from the current nine to seven.

Issues with autoconf.h for my kernel
Then I upgraded but now (and during the upgrade) I receive this error for any updates or installs:
Errors were encountered while processing:
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I checked out the log for alsa-driver-linuxant and after a few remove lines of code it has this in the log:
The file /lib/modules/2.6.35-27-generic/build/include/linux/autoconf.h does not exist.
Please install the package with full kernel sources for your distribution
or use --with-kernel=dir option to specify another directory with kernel
sources (default is /lib/modules/2.6.35-27-generic/build).
The last ticket was solved b/c my sound works fine and all of the driver is the same version with the upgrade. but the upgrade is unfinished and any install won't complete. What are my steps to fix this so my system (and installs) can run smoothly? What info should I add to help this make sense?

NASHVILLE — A Nashville couple has filed a lawsuit over a city ordinance they say restricts their right to rent their home through Airbnb.com.
The ordinance, which went into effect last month, says no more than 3 percent of people in any one of Nashville's Census tracts may use their home for short-term rentals, at least when the homeowners are frequently away.

Dairy Queen is the latest fast-food retailer to join the nostalgic wave. Two menu items are making their way back to the hearts of every '90s kid out there. These two items are fan favorites treats Treatzza Pizza on May 22 and Misty Slush on June 26.
Executive Vice President of Marketing for American Dairy Queen Corporation (ADQ), Barry Westrum, told Business Wire in an interview, "There is an obvious resurgence in everything '90s and both Treatzza Pizza and Misty Slush were fan favorites from that era. Those two treats were loved by fans from day one. They asked us to bring them back and we delivered."
The relaunch of Treatzza Pizza comes just in time for the warmer weather. The treat will be available in different flavors from Choco Brownie, Reese's, M&M and Heath Treatzza Pizzas. The pizzas are also made with a fudge cookie crust that gives just the right amount of crunch and layered with Dairy Queen's signature vanilla soft serve, candy pieces and topped off with a chocolate drizzle. Treatzza Pizzas will be served pre-cut enough for up to eight people.
The relaunch of the Misty Slush will be added back to the DQ menu permanently and will be available in fruit flavors such as Cherry, Blue-Raspberry, Grape, Strawberry-Kiwi and Lemon-Lime. Fun fact: Misty Slush was better known in the '80s and '90s as Mr. Misty.
