We assist local medical practices in increasing immunization rates by using the Vermont Immunization Program's quality improvement model, known as AFIX. A public health nurse reviews practices' rates, using data from Vermont's Immunization Registry, and assesses current immunization services and processes. The model encourages practices to implement evidence-based strategies to improve services, decrease missed opportunities, and improve data quality.
In April 2016, pediatric practice Hagan, Rinehart, and Connolly was recognized by the Vermont Immunization Program for meeting the Healthy People 2020 goal of high childhood immunization coverage. Congratulations!

New details emerge about bombs used
New details have emerged about the type of bombs used in Monday's attack on the Boston Marathon.
Sources are telling the media that at least one bomb, and possibly two, were "pressure cooker" bombs – explosive devices made by stuffing black powder or gunpowder (the explosive) and nails and ball bearings (to cause maximum harm) into metal pressure cookers, which are found in many American kitchens.
The US Department of Homeland Security warned about such bombs in a 2004 memo entitled "Potential Terrorist Use of Pressure Cookers," CBS News noted.
While the crudeness of such a bomb – and the fact that you can find instructions on how to assemble one on the Internet – might indicate that an amateur was behind the attack, the Boston-based Christian Science Monitor cautioned readers not to jump to that conclusion.
According to the Christian Science Monitor:
Islamist extremists in France tried to use pressure cookers last year in what officials there said could have been the biggest terror attack on French soil in years, until it was foiled. Likewise, US Army Pfc. Naser Abdo, who was convicted in 2012 of plotting to bomb a Texas restaurant where Fort Hood soldiers regularly ate, got the recipe for a pressure cooker bomb from an Al Qaeda website.
Boston's imam: "We're Bostonians"
The imam who leads Boston's largest mosque, the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center, voiced his concern in the wake of the explosions yesterday.
"We're Bostonians - we mourn with the city," said Suhaib Webb, according to The Huffington Post. "We stand in support with the city, with the victims. We're hurt, equally shocked and equally pissed off."
Intelligence officials also told lawmakers on Tuesday that the Saudi national injured during the bombings was no longer a person of interest and had been cleared.
After being briefed by Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss said, "He was never categorized as a suspect; he was a person of interest. My understanding is that he totally cooperated and that he is no longer a person of interest."
Breakdown of runners by country and state
More than 23,000 people from around the world set foot on Boston Marathon's 26-mile long race before the explosions shut down the internationally-celebrated event. So where did all these competitors come from?

Obama's address
In case you missed it earlier, President Obama addressed the nation. Watch:
Victims' identities
One of the victims of the dual explosions yesterday was identified as 8-year-old Martin Richard, of Dorchester. Two of the five members of his family were also seriously injured in the blast.
Martin was there to watch his father, William Richard, finish the 26.2-mile race.
"Little Martin gave his father a warm hug after he crossed the finish line — a tender moment that would be their last," wrote The New York Daily News.
This is Martin Richard, the youngest victim of the Boston Marathon bombing bzfd.it/Zv31Wf twitter.com/BuzzFeed/statu…
— BuzzFeed (@BuzzFeed) April 16, 2013
Martin's father released a statement on Tuesday afternoon saying:
My dear son Martin has died from injuries sustained in the attack on Boston. My wife and daughter are both recovering from serious injuries. We thank our family and friends, those we know and those we have never met, for their thoughts and prayers. I ask that you continue to pray for my family as we remember Martin. We also ask for your patience and for privacy as we work to simultaneously grieve and recover. Thank you.
A second victim was identified as Krystle Campbell, a 29-year-old resident of Medford. The Atlantic Wire reported that the third victim is also thought to be a woman, but there are no further details at this time.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu describes Boston Marathon a "day of terror"
Following are excerpts from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's remarks made at President Shimon Peres' Independence Day reception for the foreign diplomatic corps on Tuesday:
"Yesterday, a day of enjoyment in Boston was turned into a day of terror. We send our condolences to President Obama, the American people and the bereaved families. On this day and on any day, Israel stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the American people. We are partners in freedom and in seeking a better future for all humanity.".
President Peres hosted a reception for the foreign diplomatic corps in Israel and expressed his condolences regarding the tragic events in Boston.
– From GlobalPost's Noga Tarnopolsky based in Jerusalem, Israel.
Explosives were in pressure cookers
A source briefed on the Boston bombings said the explosives used yesterday were in 6-liter pressure cookers placed in black duffel bags.
The person said the explosives contained metal shards, nails and ball bearings and were placed on the ground.
The person, speaking on condition of anonymity, told the Associated Press that law enforcement officials did not yet know what was used to set off the explosives.
The Boston Globe reported that the roommate of a Saudi Arabian man whose apartment was searched by investigators doubted he played a role in the bombing.
"I don't think he could do that," the roommate told the Globe.
"The Saudi Arabian man is at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, apparently being treated for injuries following the double bombing at the finish line on Boylston Street Monday afternoon," said the Globe.
Officials said Tuesday that the Saudi national was being regarded as a witness, not a suspect, according to The Washington Post.
He is reportedly in his 20s and is in the United States on a Saudi scholarship to study at a Boston university.
"We're not aware of any Saudi suspect or Saudi person of interest," said a Saudi official at the embassy in Washington. The official added that the injured Saudi national was cooperating with investigators and had granted permission for his apartment to be searched.
"He volunteered to have it searched," said the official, according to The Post. "He is fully cooperating with authorities."
South Koreans have expressed shock over the bombing
President Park Geun-hye offering condolences and sympathy to President Obama.
Some US conspiracy theorists have blamed North Korea for the bombings. "It's a bit suspicious when North Korea stated they will do something to America on that day," wrote one anonymous user on Yahoo! Answers.
However, South Koreans, who have dealt with war rhetoric on a weekly basis, don't agree. Two Seoul residents said any suggestion that North Korea is behind the Boston bombing is nonsensical. "They simply wouldn't do that," said Inhye Yoon, a university student studying North Korean politics in Seoul. "They wouldn't plant a bomb in America. They would do that in South Korea or Japan."

Grassroots #HandsOverHearts London Marathon campaign in show of Boston support
In the wake of the Boston bombings, London police are amping up security in advance of both Sunday's marathon and Margaret Thatcher's funeral procession Wednesday.
Officials and event organizers insisted that Sunday's marathon will not be cancelled.
"The police will be taking every possible precaution to make sure that both the funeral and the marathon at the weekend go ahead in the normal way," London Mayor Boris Johnson told the Telegraph.
"We fully expect that Sunday's race, Registration and associated events will go ahead as originally scheduled," said a statement posted on the website of the Virgin London Marathon. "We are currently reviewing all our security arrangements with the Metropolitan Police and we will post the latest information on all the events."
"These are balanced judgments but we are absolutely confident here that we can keep the event safe and secure," Hugh Robertson, Minister for Sport, said on BBC Radio 4. "I think this is one of those instances where the best way to show solidarity with Boston is to continue and send a very clear message to those responsible that we won't be blown off course."
Prince Harry, the patron of the London Marathon Charitable Trust, is still scheduled to present medals to the winners Sunday, as he did last year.
Meanwhile, a campaign began Tuesday to get London's runners to show their support for Boston.
Lucy Fraser-Macnamara, a 27-year-old Londoner who is running the marathon to raise money for New Horizon Youth Centre, put out a call on Twitter using the hashtag #HandsOverHearts to get fellow runners to cross the finish line Sunday with their hands over their hearts in a public show of tribute to Boston.
The idea came to her on her bicycle ride to work Tuesday morning.
"The events in Boston yesterday really affected me and I was left feeling so low and wounded," she told Global Post. "The thought of mums and dads, sons and daughter, brothers and sisters all there waiting proud for their loved ones and the moment of achievement snatched away from 25,000 runners brought me to tears."
"Running is a solitary sport, yet as runners we are greater than the sum of our parts," she wrote in an email. "It's not a huge gesture but it will be to each and every runner that takes part."

People, cities, sports teams #PrayforBoston
Almost immediately following the bombings on Monday, photos, videos, and text messages streamed across phone, computer and television screens alerting the world to the unexpected horror that had just taken place.
Soon after that came an overwhelming wave of love and support from individuals, cities, and sports teams — and even an astronaut in space — all of whom rallied behind the common phrase: "#PrayForBoston"

European figures comment on Boston Marathon bombings
Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti, in a message to President Barack Obama, condemned the attack as a "a cowardly act of violence that prompts disdain and leaves us shocked with its suffering and horror."
"I am sure that even in these painful circumstances, America will know how to react by reaffirming the fundamental values of its great civilization," he said in a message posted on the government website.
"Faced with the cowardly and barbarous act, the American people can count on our total solidarity," French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius wrote in a note to Secretary of State John Kerry.
Some took to Twitter:
Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt:
Horrible and outrageous attacks. Two killed in Boston. At least 31 in Iraq. Terror must always be condemned and fought against.
— Carl Bildt (@carlbildt) April 15, 2013
Ethiopian running legend Haile Gebrselassie:
Running brings people together, but what just happened in Boston is terrible. My thoughts are with everybody in Boston.
— Haile Gebrselassie (@HaileGebr) April 15, 2013
Pres. Obama addresses nation
"This was a heinous and cowardly act," President Obama said, addressing the nation at approximately 11:30 a.m. He was very clear in defining the explosions as terrorism. "The FBI is investigating it as an act of terrorism."
"Any time bombs are used to target innocent civilians, it is an act of terrorism," he said. "The American people refuse to be terrorized."
What we still don't know, Obama said, was whether a group or a "malevolent individual" was behind the attack.
"We will find who harmed our citizens and bring them to justice," said Obama. He added that the explosions showed how America responds to evil: "Selflessly, compassionately, unafraid."
Obama also urged the public to act, saying, "If you see something suspicious, speak up."
Mexico President addresses Boston Marathon
Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto was quick to issue a statement of consolation and support after the bombings. And news of the attack led the broadcast news and newspaper front pages, with reports noting that none of the Mexicans participating in the race had been injured and that the bombing would not derail President Obama's planned visit to Mexico City in early May.
Beyond that, immediate reaction has been generally muted so far. Reaction here to such events, including the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, has often been tinged by the complex view many Mexicans have of their powerful northern neighbor.

Indians express sympathy
With a significant Indian community and a large number of colleges that attract Indian students, Boston is close to the heart of many English-speaking Indians, who expressed their dismay on Twitter and Facebook as they woke up to the news of the bombings this morning.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh strongly condemned the attack as a "senseless and cowardly act."
"The people of India join me in condemning the attack in the strongest terms. We stand in solidarity and sympathy with the bereaved families, the injured and the people of the United States," Singh said.
Despite local sympathy for the Boston victims, some Twitter users sniped that Singh's expression of solidarity, however appropriate under the circumstances, came much more swiftly than his tardy acknowledgement of December's brutal Delhi gang rape.
Coincidentally, Indian finance minister P. Chidambaram will deliver an address on the theme "Rise of the East: Implications for the Global Economy" at Harvard today.
No doubt he will diverge from the script to acknowledge the tragedy and, perhaps, he may speak briefly of his own experience fighting terrorism in India, where he was made home minister after his predecessor resigned following the November 2008 Mumbai attacks.
India put its embassy in Washington and the consulate general in New York on alert following the bomb blasts.
Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid told reporters here that there is no reason for Indians to be concerned about their relatives or Indian assets in Boston on Tuesday, remarking, "Our Finance Minister will also be in the Boston area and I am sure that he will have the opportunity to look at whatever briefings are there necessary locally. And I will remain in touch with him as well."

FBI press conference: UPDATES
The latest numbers stand thus: 176 people were injured and treated at area hospitals. 17 people are still in critical condition. The death toll remains at three.
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick called the bombings an "act of terror" and reiterated that "two and only two devices were found yesterday."
Patrick said, "Everyone should expect continued, heightened police presence," in Boston, and encouraged Boston residents to be vigilant.
Boston Mayor Thomas Menino said, "Yesterday, terror was brought to the city of Boston."
"Let's keep working together. Let's offer a helping hand," said Menino. "Here we know our neighbors, and we grieve for [the victims]. We know our heroes too..."
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the Democratic senator from Massachusetts, said, "We want to thank those from all around the country and all around the world whose prayers have poured in."
"Boston will survive," she added.
FBI Special Agent Richard DesLauriers said it remained a "very active investigation" but there were "no known additional threats."
Boston's police commissioner called the site of the explosions the most complex crime scene in the department's history. He said the 15-block crime scene had been reduced to 12 blocks today and will continue to collapse.
The superintendent of the police said the public should expect to see an enhanced presence of city and state police and the National Guard, offering comfort to the citizens of Boston.
"This will be a worldwide investigation," said DesLauriers. "We will go to ends of the earth to find those responsible for this despicable crime."
The authorities thanked first responders and brave bystanders for their help, asked people to come forward with information, photos or videos from the event and asked for the public's patience as the crime scene was processed.

The FBI will hold a press conference at 9:30 a.m. Watch below:
South Africa condemns bombings
South Africa's ruling party, the African National Congress, released a statement about the Boston Marathon explosions condemning "the senseless and dastardly act of terrorism that happened in Boston which was unleashed to unsuspecting and innocent international athletes, dignitaries, spectators and the community of Boston who participated in the annual race."
The statement read:
There can be no justification for such a despicable attack that claimed three lives and injured 130 people including kids, it deserves to be condemned by the world community.
We welcome the speedy response of the South African Department of International Relations and Cooperation in supporting the two South Africans who were injured in the blast and continued liaison with the 26 others who took part in the race.
We call on the government of the United States of America to do everything in its powers to bring to book those that are responsible for this terror act.
We also call on the world community under the auspices of the United Nations to join hands in the fight against terrorism. We extend condolences to the families of the deceased and wish speedy recovery to the injured.
Apartment searched
Law enforcement officers investigating the Boston Marathon bombings searched an apartment in the Revere neighborhood about 10 miles from the attack site early on Tuesday.
As the FBI took over co-ordination of a "potential terrorist inquiry" into the dual bombings that killed three and wounded more than 140, Boston police canceled all leave and urged the city's residents to stay indoors and avoid large groups.
Commuters in Boston and surroundings were warned their bags would be searched on Tuesday morning as the city remained on high alert.

How many blasts: At least 2; fire at JFK library probably an unrelated incident. NBC said of the explosives:
"Officials have told NBC News that the devices detonated were homemade, crudely assembled, and possibly had shrapnel added to them for added harm after the blasts."
How many explosive devices found: In dispute. It's been reported as many as five additional devices may have been defused by security crews after the initial blasts, but officials have since said they doubt the devices were bombs.
Who did it? We don't know yet. Police have said repeatedly in the course of the day that while they have questioned many people, they do not yet have a suspect in custody. Many observers have posited that either an international or domestic terrorist group may have been responsible, though none has claimed responsibilty. Rampant rumors circulated earlier alleging that a Saudi national may have been in custody as a suspect, leading to an unfortunate outbreak of high-profile hate speech.
What the authorities are doing: The FBI has taken over the investigation from the Boston Police Department.
"It is a criminal investigation that is a potential terrorist investigation," Richard DesLauriers, the head of the FBI in Boston, told reporters.
Police officers remain in full force:
Commissioner Davis: "The BPD is on high alert. All sworn personnel working around the clock. 12 hour shifts in effect. Days off cancelled."
— Boston Police Dept. (@Boston_Police) April 16, 2013
Who to call: Family members seeking information about relatives should call (617) 635-4500. Those with information that might help the investigation can call 1(800) CALL-FBI or the BPD's Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 1 (800) 494-TIPS.
When will we know more? The FBI has sceduled a press conference for 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday at the Westin Hotel.
"At that moment, everything stood still"
GlobalPost Americas Editor Alex Leff interviewed witnesses of the blasts in Boston today. Listen here:
France, UK on edge after Boston blasts
In reaction to the twin blasts in Massachusetts, early Tuesday local time French Interior Minister Manuel Valls called on local officials and security forces nationwide "to reinforce without delay the presence of patrols," Agence France-Presse reported.
Officials in London, meanwhile, are reappraising security measures ahead of their own city's internationally-attended marathon, planned for this coming weekend.
Amid outpouring of support, a tiny minority hangs on to hate
Today has been a day that has tried the soul of a city.
In the hours since the two explosions rocked the streets of Boston, messages of love and support have saturated the internet — but these inspiring and compassionate posts were not universal.
In fact, the commentary streaming across the Twitter feed of the Westboro Baptist Church was both hostile and hateful.
The Westboro Baptist Church, based in Topeka, Kansas, is a small, virulently homophobic, anti-Semitic group that regularly stages protests or pickets institutions and individuals they think support homosexuality or otherwise subvert what they believe is God's law.
WBC even protested the funerals of children who were slain in the horrific Newtown shootings this past December.
Read the rest of this story here.
The day's dominant sentiment, however, couldn't have been more different. GlobalPost's Kyle Kim, who was at the site of the explosions after they occured, summed it up with a quote from beloved children's television personality Mr. Rogers:
This quote couldn't be any more fitting. Thanks @evanprim. #prayforboston #BostonMarathon twitter.com/kyleykim/statu…

Conference updates
Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis, while holding a second press conference today, said no suspects are in custody.
Also speaking at the conference, Massachusetts Gov. Patrick said more than 100 people were injured, some gravely, according to the BBC.
Estimates from area hospitals have said as many as 130 were treated for injuries.
Patrick said that while Boston would be "open" on Tuesday, there would be "a heightened law enforcement presence."
"There will be random checks of backpacks and other parcels. We are also asking that everyone be on a state of heightened vigilance," he said.
The Wall Street Journal cited an official saying counterterrorism officials found five other suspect devices, but doubted that they were bombs.
The devices were initially thought to be undetonated explosives.

Inside the ER
A first-year resident at Brigham and Women's Hospital who was inside the emergency department as victims were rushed there earlier today spoke to GlobalPost this evening.
The resident, who doesn't work in the emergency ward typically, happened to be there this afternoon when victims were brought in. The department and trauma surgeons there quickly mobilized to receive victims, he said.
"Everybody was on their feet," the resident said.
He added that the hospital was quickly locked down as patients were rushed in. "The ATF showed up. There were lots of cops around," he said. "The only way in was through an ambulance.... The only way out was through the front door."
The injured were also sent to Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston Medical Center, Beth Israel Deaconess and Tufts Medical Center, the Wall Street Journal reported. The journal said the largest number of victims, 26, were being treated at Brigham and Women's.
3 people are confirmed dead
Police have said three people were killed by the explosions today. The count of injured continues to grow, with some outlets reporting over 140 injured.
Latest reports say more than 130 injured
CNN cites area hospitals as saying at least 132 people were injured in today's blasts. The count included eight children.
It was reported earlier that at least two died from the explosions, including an 8-year-old boy.

"This is a horrific day in Boston. My thoughts and prayers are with those who have been injured. I have been in touch with the President, Mayor Menino and our public safety leaders.

The explosions and aftermath were also closely followed on social media.
So far two people have been reported killed, with anywhere between 80 to a hundred people injured. NBC News reported that law enforcement officials confirmed one of the two people killed in the explosions to be an eight-year-old.
The White House has labeled the explosions an "act of terror" according to an official cited by Bloomberg.
Obama speaks briefly
President Obama carefully reiterated that "we don't yet have all the answers," but stressed that "we will find out who did this and we will hold them accountable."
"On days like this, there are no Republicans or Democrats," he said, saying there are only concerned people.
Earlier, Boston Mayor Thomas Menino said authorities were coordinating to set up centers for people looking for loved ones running in the marathon.
"It's a very serious time so we need people to stay away from the area."
The 15-block area around the blast site will be closed until further notice. The police said there was no specific intelligence about this incident happening.
The police said there were no suspects in custody, contradicting earlier widespread reports about a "person of interest" in custody.

Third explosion was electrical fire
The third explosion reported at the J.F.K. Library at the University of Massachusetts was confirmed by police. They said it was caused by an electrical fire and believed there was no connection to the other explosions near the finish line.
A law enforcement official told the Associated Press that cellphone service had been shut down in the Boston area to prevent remote detonation of explosives.
Massachusetts General Hospital is taking care of 22 patients from the explosions, with six in critical condition, according to Bloomberg.
Searching for a suspect
The police scanner from the scene said Boston police are looking for "A black man with a black backpack and a black hoodie" who was denied access to the Fairmont Copley Hotel, five minutes before the bombing.
When he was stopped by security, he pulled his hood up and left.
Military Beth Israel Deaconess hospital on Francis Street is requesting that police check out a military style backpack left at their emergency room. Police indicate that they have one airport style bomb dog, but no more Explosive and Ordnance Disposal teams available.
A hundred people have been injured and/or treated in four area hospitals in Boston, according to WBUR.
A site has already been set up for people to find missing loved ones in the area. It's called Safe & Well. Google has also set up a person finder here.
The Boston police are also seeking blood transfers from Rhode Island.
On a heartrending note, the last mile of the Boston Marathon was dedicated to the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting in Newtown last December.
"In the first twenty miles we're honoring the twenty Sandy Hook first graders," Laura Nowacki, a spokesperson for Newtown Strong, told WBUR Boston. "When we crest Heartbreak Hill, and we're coming back towards Boston, we run the final six for our six fallen educators, including their lives, to protect our children."
New York, D.C. ramp up security
New York City and Washington, D.C. have increased their security in the wake of the Boston explosions.
"We've stepping up security at hotels and other prominent locations in the city through deployment of the NYPD's critical response vehicles until is more about the explosion is learned," Deputy Commissioner of the New York Police Department Paul J. Browne told CNBC.
Officials also told NBC News that security had been increased around the White House.
The Federal Aviation Administration also ordered a no-fly zone over the site of the explosions in Boston.
According to the Associated Press:
The agency said in a notice issued Monday about an hour after the explosions that a no-fly zone with a 3.5-mile radius has been created over 811 Boylston Street. The zone is limited to flights under 3,000 feet in altitude, which is lower than most airliners would fly except when taking off or landing.
Runners dazed and confused (VIDEO)
GlobalPost's Alex Leff sent this video from the corner of Commonwealth Avenue and Fairfield Avenue, a few blocks from the blast. Runners in the Boston Marathon were leaving the premises as police and emergency crews secured the area.

Our correspondent near the scene, Alex Leff, said the police are not letting reporters close to the site of the explosion.

Key locations
Another explosion was confirmed at the J.F.K Library. It is not yet clear if it was a controlled explosion. The Associated Press cited an intelligence official saying there were two more devices found at the marathon currently being dismantled.
Here is a map of the current locations with suspected or exploded devices:

Tense situation on the ground
Peg Carter, of Middleborough, came to see the marathon because her 28-year-old daughter was running. She was watching it with her 15-year-old step son. She told GlobalPost's Alex Leff that she heard the blast.
"It was huge. It sounded like a canon. It happened at the 26th mile. Somebody screamed that it was a terrorist attack. I've got a scary feeling that a lot more of these will go off."
A lot of people on Commonwealth Ave were discussing the possibility of a third device. Many congregated while police were trying to get spectators to head home. Police were chasing people away from the scene. There was tension in the air as police tried to keep the area clear, said Leff.
BOSTON — At least two explosions hit near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday afternoon. Boston Police have confirmed two dead and twenty-three injured.
Witnesses reported hearing the explosion just before 3 p.m., according to MyFoxBoston.com.
"There are a lot of people down," said one man, according to the Associated Press.

Another device was reportedly found near the Mandarin Hotel, according to the police scanner. The scanner also indicated the presence of another abandoned package in front of Eastern Standard in Kenmore Square. A perimeter is being established around Eastern Standard.
The Marathon is now over. Runners are being routed to Boston Common.
The police have reportedly asked for K-9 bomb dogs to sweep the area and Boylston "before we can put our officers there."
A command post is being set up in The Westin Copley Place Hotel, in Copley Square. Another suspected device has reportedly also been found at the J.F.K. Library at the University of Massachusetts.
Our correspondent on the scene, Alex Leff, said it was a tense evacuation scene, with sirens and police telling pedestrians to keep walking and return to their homes. Runners were walking in shock, dumbfounded.
Leff reported an explosion going off. The police scanner said a controlled explosion was set to detonate a suspected device at 600 Boylston.
GlobalPost's Kyle Kim is also near the scene:

How to Swear in Different Languages
Website of the Day: YouSwear
Although swearing isn't very ladylike, it happens to the best of us. Of course, I try not to direct it at any one person when I do it, but swearing not only makes me feel better in times of stress, it also helps emphasizes how I'm feeling. If you want to minimize the effects swearing has on the people around you, you could learn how to swear in different languages with the help of YouSwear. I learned about this website through a Felicia Day retweet, and I couldn't have gotten a better laugh than trying to say all the swear words in languages from Afrikaans to Wookie. No kidding.

The 3 Best Car Sharing Companies in New York City
New York City is an apt city for car sharing services. Congestion, high parking fees, and astonishingly high housing costs make it difficult to own a vehicle in Gotham. The good news is that there are plenty of high-quality car share services to choose from. With a car on every corner, finding and obtaining a car when you want it has never been easier.
Zipcar NYC makes it easy to drive a car without owning one. Zipcar spots are easy to find around the city and their mobile app gives you a great picture of where cars are available. Reserve a car online or from the convenience of your mobile device. With Zipcar NYC, you can browse vehicles and reserve a car in your neighborhood or another country from your iPhone or Android device. You don't have to worry about paying for gas either. Zipcar NYC provides a gas card in each vehicle in addition to $1 million insurance coverage on each vehicle and 24/7 roadside assistance. If you have an itch to suddenly head out to Vermont for a winter weekend, Zipcar NYC includes up to 180 miles per day before any mileage charges kick in.
Enterprise, a strong name in the car rental industry, provides a fleet of pickup trucks, fuel-efficient sedans, and hybrid/electric vehicles to fit every need. Three distinct plans are available. Infrequent drivers will want to choose the Pay as You Go plan, which costs $7.00 per hour with 180 miles included. On the other end of the spectrum, the Prepay Smart Saver costs $50 per month and also includes 180 miles per day. High-volume users will benefit most from the this plan. All plans include gas, insurance, and 24/7 roadside assistance for every trip.
Another big name in the car rental business, Hertz equips all of its car share vehicles with the NeverLost® GPS system. This system has up-to-date weather forecasts and current flight status information in addition to street-level GPS navigation. Most cars also come with Bluetooth connectivity. This technology is deployed across an impressive fleet of cars, trucks, vans, and hybrids in cities throughout the world, including cities across Europe. They allow one-way rentals, which is a rare feature that comes in very handy if you find your driving plans have changed. Finally, Hertz 24/7 has partnered up with the Lowe's home improvement chain to offer truck and van rentals at all Lowe's locations throughout the country.

You May be Entitled to Full Tort Damages in PA
You were not driving at the time of your Pennsylvania car accident. In fact, you paid someone else to drive for you. You may have been a passenger in a bus, truck, taxi or another type of commercial vehicle. You trusted the driver to get you to your destination safely, but that didn't happen. Instead, you are suffering the pain of Pennsylvania car accident injuries, and you are wondering if your limited tort car insurance is going to compensate you for all of your damages.
You are Entitled to Full Tort Damages If You are Hurt as a Passenger in a Commercial Vehicle
Typically, limited tort insurance does not compensate injured car accident victims for pain and suffering unless they fit into an exception to the Pennsylvania limited tort insurance law. If you are hurt in a car accident while you are the passenger in a commercial vehicle, then you qualify for a limited tort exception, and you may be entitled to full tort damages for your Pennsylvania car accident injuries.
Contact an Experienced Pennsylvania Limited Tort Lawyer for Help
Just because you qualify for a limited tort exception does not mean that the insurance company is going to be eager to provide you with fair and equitable damages after your accident. Instead, you may need to fight for your recovery. An experienced Pennsylvania limited tort attorney who enjoys representing limited tort victims and is not afraid to zealously advocate on behalf of accident victims can help you get the recovery that you deserve. For more information about how a limited tort lawyer in Pennsylvania may be able to help you, please call our Pennsylvania limited tort law firm today at (800) 861-5696 for a free consultation.

White blood cell (WBC) counts may fall due to many different things, including the blood cancers known as leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma—as well as their treatments.

When levels fall, precise counts of one WBC type in particular, the neutrophils, tend to be very good at predicting a person's risk for infection. Doctors use the absolute neutrophil count to measure neutrophil levels, and when they are too low, this is called neutropenia. If counts fall even further, the condition may be categorized as severe neutropenia.

Why the Low Counts?

If the cancer cells are crowding out normal white-blood-cell-producing cells in your bone marrow, this can result in low counts. Or, it may be a side effect of therapy for your cancer, such as chemotherapy or radiation. Often in cancer patients, low WBC counts reflect suppression of your bone marrow, and so it's not just the neutrophils that are low, but also other cells made by the marrow—other white cells, red cells and the platelets that help the blood to clot.

Your doctor will follow your WBC count closely, but if you are at risk for infection due to low counts, there are also some things you need to know and a few things you can do to help minimize your risk.

How to Decrease Your Chances of Getting an Infection

There are a number of things you can do to help prevent an infection:

Perform good handwashing several times a day, especially before and after eating or food preparation, after using the toilet, or after sneezing or blowing your nose.

Perform good mouth care.

Wear gloves when working with soil or out in the garden.

Use an electric razor instead of a straight blade.

Avoid large crowds, or people who have recently been sick.

Take care of your skin, and clean any cuts or scrapes with soap and water immediately.

Avoid scratching or picking at pimples.

Do not clean or scoop cat litter boxes or birdcages.

 Cook all meats and fish well, and wash all fruits and vegetables before eating them.

Avoid taking rectal suppositories or enemas. Keep an eye on your bowel patterns and intervene before you become constipated.

Ask your healthcare provider about immunizations or flu shots.

Avoid contact with children who have recently received a live vaccine such as chicken pox, measles, or polio.

Change towels and hand towels often.

Do not share drinks or eating utensils with others.

Do not have plants or fresh flowers in your hospital room.

For the ladies, use sanitary napkins instead of tampons during your period and avoid vaginal douches or bubble baths which may disturb the balance of normal vaginal organisms

In some cases, a virus that is lying dormant in your body may cause infection. An example of this may be the herpes virus that causes shingles. These viruses, if not being kept in check by your immune system, may become reactivated and lead to an infection.

Signs of an Infection

In patients with low WBC counts, infections can come on suddenly and progress quickly. Some common signs of an infection are:

Fever with a temperature greater than 100°F or 38°C

Sweating, especially at night

 Pain with urination, or frequently voiding small amounts

Chills or shaking

Cough that produces green or yellow sputum

Sore throat

Redness and swelling at a skin wound

Diarrhea

If you are neutropenic, the usual signs that accompany an infection may not be present. Redness, swelling and pus are responses that are created, in part, by white blood cells, and if your counts are low, those signs may not be present. Fever may be the only symptom that you have and should be taken seriously after cancer treatment.

It is important that you have a good working thermometer at home, and know how to use it properly so you can detect a fever early.

Treatment of Neutropenia and Infection

In most cases, your healthcare provider will expect that your treatment will cause a certain amount of neutropenia. However, the longer your immune system is out of order, the more likely you are to get a serious infection. Therefore, your doctor may order a type of drug called a colony-stimulating factor.

Bone marrow stimulators such as G-CSF (Filgrastim, Neupogen or Neulasta) or GM-CSF (Sargramostim, Leukine), give your bone marrow a message to start producing white blood cells again. These medications are given as an injection and are often started shortly after treatment, or once your white blood cell count has been low for a couple of days.

Your doctor may also choose to start you on prophylactic or preventive antibiotics or antivirals; that is, medications to prevent infection from happening. A variety of factors are considered and there are standards that help guide doctors on the decision to treat preventively with antibiotics or not.

A Word from Verywell

Although neutropenia is a common side effect following treatment for leukemia or lymphoma, it can also become very serious and even life threatening if a severe infection develops. It is important to prevent infection and keep on the lookout for signs and symptoms when your counts are low. Treat your fever as an emergency, and contact your healthcare provider right away if you think you have an infection.

As China frets over potential nuclear fallout from Japan, its own neighbor is experiencing that same thing, courtesy of China, according to a report from South Korean media of a scientific study.
The Yonghap news agency of Seoul quoted a government think-tank Monday as saying that the yellow sand that blows in every spring from China contains trace amounts of radioactive cesium-137 "presumed to have been leaked from nuclear power plants in the neighboring country."
If true, the report calls into question the safety of China's existing nuclear power plants, not only its plans to build more than two dozen more in the coming years. Last week, the country's State Council announced it had suspended construction and new project approvals to conduct a thorough safety review, in the wake of Japan's catastrophic quake and still-looming potential nuclear crisis.

No Europa League For Manyama… Yet
Lebogang Manyama Will Not Be Playing Europa League Yet
Konyaspor were not able to register their new signing, Lebogang Manyama, for the UEFA Europa League group stages, however, he could feature if they are to progress.
Manyama completed a move believed to be worth around R10m from Cape Town City shortly before the Turkish transfer window slammed shut last week, and while it was done in time for the league, his international commitments meant it couldn't be done in time for the continental competition.
The 26-year-old finalised his move to Konyaspor on Thursday after jetting out to undergo a medical in Turkey and went on to make his debut on Saturday night in the 2-0 defeat to Alanyaspor.
His new side will face Marseille in France on Thursday night, although he will not be able to play due to the registration deadline for the UEL ending on September 1st when he was still on international duty with Bafana Bafana.
All is not lost though for Manyama's European dream, with another registration period opening up in the new year should Konyaspor manage to overcome the likes of Marseille, Salzburg and Vitoria de Guimaraes to manoeuvre their way into the knockout rounds.

Browns release QB Robert Griffin IIIFriday, March 10, 2017, 1:45pm
As it turns out, the Browns have more than one expensive quarterback they didn't really want.
Or at least, they did.
Per Josina Anderson of ESPN, the Browns are releasing Robert Griffin III, after last year's experiment never really came to fruition.
Griffin looked pretty good in the preseason, but only appeared in five games for the Browns compiling 886 yards on 147 pass attempts (6.0 YPA) while throwing more interceptions (3) than touchdowns (2). He did run for 38 yards per game and found the endzone twice.
Friday, December 30, 2016, 6:42pm
Browns QB Robert Griffin III (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday. He's expected to start against the Steelers.
Browns QB Robert Griffin III suffers concussionSunday, December 25, 2016, 12:40pm
Cleveland Browns QB Robert Griffin III took a high hit from linebacker Korey Toomer as he was being tackled by Darius Philon in the fourth quarter. He was diagnosed with a concussion.
Related players: Cody Kessler
Griffin returned to the huddle, but it appeared officials signaled for Browns trainers to come check on the QB. Griffin went to the locker room for further evaluation. RGIII can't seem to catch a break as he continues to get chances on the field. It would appear if Griffin can't go in Week 17, Kessler could get the start.
Browns to stick with Robert Griffin III at QBMonday, December 19, 2016, 4:25pm
Hue Jackson wanted to see a jump in performance from Robert Griffin III.
After watching film of a 33-13 loss to the Bills, the Browns head coach determined it was enough to stick with the quarterback against the Chargers on Saturday.
"We'll go out there and give him another opportunity to take a swing at it," Jackson said Monday on a conference call with reporters.
"I think there was some improvement, there was some things that I thought he did much better when you go back and watch the tape from the first time he played," he said, "and hopefully there can be another jump in this next game. But I think he needs to go play and he needs to play well."
Griffin, who started his second straight game Sunday, passed for 196 yards and ran for another 48 yards and a touchdown after missing three months because of a broken bone in his shoulder. Jackson also made it clear he won't hesitate to play rookie quarterback Cody Kessler, who started eight games this season while Griffin and veteran signal caller Josh McCown dealt with injuries.
Browns don't seem to know who will start at QB Week 16Monday, December 19, 2016, 9:24am
In weeks past, Browns coach Hue Jackson has been quick to name a starting quarterback.
But at 0-14 and coming off another less-than-inspired quarterbacking performance from Robert Griffin III, Jackson has flung the door back open for Cody Kessler or Josh McCown for this week's game against the Chargers.
"Everything's going to be on the table," Jackson said, via Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "I'm going to look at everything. I just have to. I owe these guys the best opportunity to win in the locker room. With the effort they're giving me, I have to give back to them as a leader. I have to make sure I'm putting the right people out there for them. . . .
"Everybody. Everybody is in play. Absolutely."
Had Griffin given them any real reason, he could have had the next two games as an audition for the future. But they've scored an average of 11.0 points per game in his three starts, so there's no compelling reason to keep on with the experiment, the story pointed out. Griffin was better in Week 15 than Week 14, but it hasn't produced a victory.
Friday, December 9, 2016, 6:41pm
Browns QB Cody Kessler (concussion) took full practice reps all week. The Browns plan to start Robert Griffin III this week. He had an impressive preseason (22-of-38 for 313 yards with three touchdowns and an 8.2 YPA) before getting injured during a less-than-stellar Week 1 outing against the Eagles. The Browns want to see if Griffin is the quarterback of the future. In his sole start, Griffin targeted Terrelle Pryor (7), Corey Coleman (5) and Duke Johnson (5) the most.

Browns plan to start RG3 vs. BengalsWednesday, December 7, 2016, 7:07pm
Barring an unforeseen health setback in practice, the Browns plan to start Robert Griffin III at QB on Sunday, per source.
Griffin had a fantastic preseason (22-of-38 for 313 yards with three touchdowns and an 8.2 YPA) before getting injured during a less-than-stellar Week 1 outing against the Eagles. The Browns want to see if Griffin is the quarterback of the future. In his sole start, Griffin targeted Terrelle Pryor (7), Corey Coleman (5) and Duke Johnson (5) the most.
Wednesday, December 7, 2016, 6:58pm
Browns QB Cody Kessler (concussion) practiced fully Wednesday. It looks like Robert Griffin III will draw the start.
Browns Beat: QB RGIII cleared for contact, likely to start after byeTuesday, November 29, 2016, 1:33pm
Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III has been cleared for contact, paving the way for him to play again this season.
Griffin has been sidelined since breaking a bone in his left shoulder late in the Sept. 11 opener against Philadelphia. He returned to practice last week, but still had to pass another medical test to make sure his injury had healed enough to absorb hits.
The Browns (0-12) have a bye this week, but Griffin will likely start the Dec. 11 game against Cincinnati. Browns coach Hue Jackson could go back to rookie Cody Kessler, but he sustained his second concussion of the season on Nov. 20 and only completed the concussion protocol on Monday.
The Browns signed Griffin to a two-year deal and would probably like to use these four games to see if he's worth bringing back as the team's starter in 2017. After trading away the number-two overall pick this past draft, and not really seeing any answers at the QB position, one would have to think the team needs to draft a QB next spring regardless of bringing back Griffin in 2017.
Browns QB RGIII still not readyMonday, November 21, 2016, 3:41pm
Josh McCown will start at quarterback for the winless Cleveland Browns on Sunday against the New York Giants.
Coach Hue Jackson said that although Robert Griffin III will practice, he has not been cleared for contact or to play in a game. Rookie Cody Kessler had his second concussion in five games and is out indefinitely.
The team could shut down Kessler for a while according to a report we had earlier today. With RGIII not ready to get back into action, McCown gets the start in Week 12.
Source: Browns QB Robert Griffin III could practice WednesdayTuesday, November 15, 2016, 5:13pm
Quarterback Robert Griffin III could be cleared to return to practice with the Cleveland Browns as early as Wednesday, a league source told ESPN.
Earlier, ESPN's Josina Anderson reported sources told her the team was discussing Griffin's possible return to practice this week.
Griffin, though, has not been cleared to play a in game and won't play Sunday when the Browns face the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Though Griffin might be ready to practice in some form, he could be limited and would have to work his way back before practicing fully. Before he could return to practice, Griffin must be "designated to return" from injured reserve by the team. Once he begins practicing, he can practice for up to 21 days before the Browns have to make a decision on returning him to the active roster.
Browns QB Robert Griffin III on pace to return this seasonMonday, November 14, 2016, 5:18pm
The Cleveland Browns haven't given up on Robert Griffin III.
Sashi Brown, the Browns' executive vice president of football operations, told reporters Monday that the injured quarterback still has a chance to play this season.
While noting that Griffin's "durability issues have followed him," Brown stressed that the signal-caller is "on pace" to see late-season action after suffering a broken bone in his non-throwing shoulder in Week 1, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain Dealer. That will require Griffin to pass further testing on the shoulder, but the passer sounded optimistic Monday.
Friday, November 4, 2016, 6:47pm
Browns QB Cody Kessler (concussion) took full practice reps all week. Kessler will start Week 9. There were three games this season in which Kessler attempted 30 or more passes. In those games, Duke Johnson has averaged 5.0 catches, so he's a safe play in PPR formats. Over the past two years, Gary Barnidge's yardage with and without Kessler are about the same, though he hasn't been the same factor in the red zone this season. Terrelle Pryor has averaged 7.3 catches for 88 yards and 1.0 touchdown in three full games with Kessler, so no problems there. Corey Coleman played mostly with Robert Griffin III early in the season, so he's something of a wild card.
Source says Browns QB Robert Griffin III (shoulder) won't need surgeryTuesday, October 18, 2016, 1:11pm
An important four-week checkup this week revealed that Robert Griffin III's fractured coracoid bone in his left shoulder is showing signs of healing, sources said Tuesday, and doctors believe the Cleveland Browns quarterback, barring any setbacks, will not require surgery.
After Griffin originally suffered the injury in September, the team feared he would miss the remainder of season if surgery was required. The Browns placed him on the Injured Reserve with designation to return, hoping proper healing could mean an earlier comeback.
Related players: Josh McCown, Cody Kessler
The IR designation means Griffin still wouldn't be able to return to action until Nov. 10 against Baltimore. However, it is still to be determined whether that is a realistic timeline in terms of the healing process. A source close to the player says Griffin plans to be extremely patient with his return, and has not placed a timeline on when he'll be back, the story said.

Thursday marked his 37th day in a single cell at Portland's downtown jail on federal conspiracy charges.
"It's the most difficult thing I've ever done in my life,'' said Bundy, his hair cut short and wearing the standard blue jail smock over a pink T-shirt in a visiting room of the Multnomah County Detention Center. "But I don't regret what we did because I knew it was right.''
...Bundy said he misses his wife and six children in Idaho -- three daughters and three sons ages 1 to 13 -- and struggles to maintain contact with them through letters and phone calls.
To pass the time, he takes inspiration from the jailhouse words of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. about the importance of civil disobedience, reads passages from Scripture, keeps a journal and tries to respond to the more than 220 people who have sent him letters since his arrest. He also runs in place and does jumping jacks in his 7-by-12-foot cell to keep in shape.
During an hourlong interview with The Oregonian/OregonLive, the 40-year-old spoke about the surprise of his arrest, his father's influence on his beliefs, the police shooting of occupation spokesman Robert "LaVoy" Finicum and his future.
He said he had gone to Burns to rally behind two local ranchers who were returning to prison for burning federal land and even his wife didn't know he was planning to end up at the wildlife refuge.
"I began to look at what we can do to make a stand, to make a point, demonstrate that this is not OK, much like many others have done in our history,'' he said. "We needed to make a lot of noise to get people to understand what is happening.''
He's satisfied that the occupation drew national attention to his cause.
He doesn't feel responsible for Finicum's death or his 24 co-defendants who also face federal indictment, he said.
"Everyone made their own decision,'' Bundy said. "We're all adults.''
"We were headed with weapons of laptops, projectors and PA systems and they attacked us – literally ambushed us with a standing army,'' Bundy said. "Yeah, we were surprised because we were going peacefully to a community meeting. We were legally moving about the country peacefully the way that people should be able to do.''
...He hung his head and talked softly when he described how hard it is being away from his wife and children.
"We are in here locked away and our families are trying to survive, and they're struggling out there especially when we were the primary breadwinners,'' he said. "My babies are at home. My beautiful wife is at home. Everything is at risk right now for us, as far as our income, our house. But we have to ask ourselves – was it worth it? I believe it was.''
