Help for Haiti: Links
News and images of the January 12th Haiti earthquake and its aftershocks are unspeakably horrendous. As we join millions of others around the world in support of coordinated relief efforts, we also want to help spread the word on how to help.
Click on the following links to make donations online, or to learn more about how to participate in other ways.
Google crisis response offers a list of links – and with a single click you can donate to any number of response and relief organizations via Google checkout. Included on the page is a link to UNICEF, which is deploying clean water and sanitation supplies, therapeutic foods, medical supplies and temporary shelter to Jacmel and Port-au-Prince. UNICEF will also be focusing on children who have become separated from their families to protect them from harm or exploitation. Another link provided by Google is to CARE, which plans to start food distributions using stocks of high-protein biscuits from CARE warehouses in Haiti. CARE has 133 staff who are on the ground coordinating with U.N. agencies and other aid organizations to gather more detailed information about the damage and will rapidly scale up response based on those assessments.
You can also give to Save the Children through PayPal or Amazon Payments. This means that you can donate Swagbucks -- you can get $5 on PayPal for every 70 Swagbucks you cash in. They usually send out gift cards you buy on the 16th of the month, so if you want to buy some PayPal money to donate do so asap.
The following organizations are accepting SMS (text) donations in the US only (You will get a message back asking you to text YES to confirm your donation, and you'll get a confirmation text back so you will know if it worked):
- SMS text "HAITI" to 90999 to donate $10 to Red Cross relief efforts
- SMS text "YELE" to 501501 to Donate $5 to Yele Haiti's Earthquake Relief efforts
Habitat for Humanity has a dedicated page on its site that offers information and the option to support the rebuilding effort. The Salvation Army has an established presence on Haiti, and offers a secure online website for donations.
Also accepting cash and in-kind donations are the following sites: UNICEF (1-800-4UNICEF), Direct Relief, Yele Haiti, Partners in Health, Red Cross, World Food Program, Mercy Corps (1-888-256-1900), Save the Children, Lambi Fund, Doctors Without Borders, The International Rescue Committee, and CARE.
These big organizations have people on the ground in Haiti, or will soon. If you'd rather give to an organization not on this but that resonates with you personally, remember to check Guidestar or another ratings site to make sure the organization will make good use of your funds. (And be sure to find out if your employer will match your gift.)
If you are short on funds, there are other ways to help:
- Search for travel through Donation Travel, which gives you the option of raising money for Mercy Corps' Haitian Relief effort.
- Donate miles or rewards points. Starwood and Delta make it possible to donate points or miles to the Red Cross. (You can also get AA bonus miles for your donation.)
- Zynga has already been raising money for Haiti since October through online gaming.

That is very tragic incident by killing people and leaving many of them homeless. i got this news in rushessay blogs and felt sad. No one can stop natural calamities but, we can help those cyclone victims and it's our minimum responsibility as humans to help other humans.

Gettin' Weird
Well that went well.
This past holiday weekend we took a trip to the Traverse City, Michigan to have a sit down with Weird Al Yankovic, who was performing. Being overly cautious, I waited until I had the hard drives in my hands before I posted this update - didn't want to get hopes up if it didn't come together. The whole experience came together rather quickly - a couple weeks from getting permission to interview him to finding a location relatively close to us (he's on his world tour).
Al was terrific! We grilled him for about a half hour and he had great insight into MAD's influence on him and his career. He seemed truly interested in the subject and in relating it to us, despite having performed six nights straight, the last being in Milwaukee, leaving at 2 AM and arriving in Traverse City at 10 AM.
This was a big get - and now on to the next...

Volcano hiking tours, HI – The time has come to break the mold a bit. While we feel that small towns are a never-ending source of inspiration both for the career traveler and the weekend explorer alike, it's good to change focus every now and then. And since Hawaii is one of the most enticing and dream-like destinations that exist, we figured they're worth talking about more than once. And as if we had nothing more inspiring to write about, this time we chose an activity that has to do with being outdoors and exploring something Hawaii has its fair share of – volcanoes. Volcano hiking tours have been a trademark of Hawaii for ages. Therefore, here's our take on a unique way to spend your visit to this incredible paradise on Earth.
Napau Is A Cool Way To Start Things Off
The East Rift Zone of Kilauea is the area through which the Napau Trail takes hikers on this volcano hiking tour. This is exactly where the active lava digs its way underground to the summit of Pu'u O'o vent. At the same time, this is also the site of the most recent lava production. The trail itself takes at least seven hours to complete and is a very strenuous trip. Along the way, hikers pass through fern rain forests and recent or, if they're lucky, active lava flows. Definitely one of the cooler volcano hiking tours on the list.
The rules for undertaking this challenge, which we highly recommend, are very simple. THE DO's: Make sure to be aware of your surroundings at all times, and also bring along an ample water supply. Lava breaks are completely unpredictable; they can occur without warning at any time. THE DON'Ts: Should an eruption occur at any point or stage along the trail, DO NOT attempt to outrun the lava by heading downwards. Instead, aim for higher ground and also upwind from any type of gaseous material that might be surfacing with the lava.
The Crater Rim Trail – One Of The Most Popular Volcano Hiking Tours To Date
Close to the entrance to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park you'll be able to witness the Halemaumau crater. This crater has come back to life in recent years, and is rightfully called the site of one of the most spectacular eruptions in the area. Of course, the fact that it sits four thousand feet above the sea may have something to do with it, as well. But, you be the judge of that. Volcanic gasses spew out of the crater on a regular basis, in addition to the constantly bubbling lava at the bottom. However, there are no major eruptions here any longer.
Majestic views of this spectacular hole in the Earth are offered to those who undertake the challenge of the looping 11-mile volcano hiking tour. THE DO's: Water is like oxygen here – you won't last the hike without it, so stock up. Also, the hike is an all-day experience; for every half-mile you plan to cover, set aside an hour. Parts of the trail are always accessible for viewing and hiking, even though an occasional gas eruption closes off other sections. THE DON'Ts: It's good to be confident, but never too much; 11 miles of rough terrain is a challenge even for Army Commandos, let alone hikers. Account for rest times, pack plenty of sandwiches, fruit, power bars and bring a couple of spare sweatshirts. You WILL need them.
Devastation Trail – Just Sounds Scary, Don't Worry
This one's a real peach when it comes to volcano hiking tours in Hawaii, folks. This paved, one-mile hiking trail is accessible both for the disabled and children. All in all, Devastation Trail offers an easier sightseeing experience compared to other volcano hiking tours on this list. Starting near the overlook parking area at Crater Rim Drive, this trail then winds its way though a nearby forest. The forest is filled with various forms of hardened lava rock, including a cinder cone, that are the aftermath of the 1959 Kilauea Iki eruption.
THE DO's: While you'll be able to get a close look at the devastation caused by the nearby eruption, you shouldn't attempt to break off any segments or parts of the rocks for souvenirs. You may sustain serious injuries this way. Instead, you're better off picking up parts of debris that are already on the forest floor. THE DON'Ts: As aforementioned, this volcano hiking tour is relatively safe and not particularly challenging. Therefore, there's not much than can go wrong on this volcano hiking tour. Just follow common sense, have fun and soak up as much of the sights, sounds and smells as you can.
The Lava Flow Hike – The Volcano Hiking Tour With The Money Shot
To be quite honest, the Kilauea lava flow is what most people come to see at the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The sight of silent rivers of glowing molten rock cascading down the mountain is just as impressive as their explosive encounter with the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean. Getting an up-close view of the lava can be tricky; this is because of the fact that the lava flow is in a constant state of flux. That's why the distance and time required to hike in for the money shot can vary from minutes to virtually several hours.
Night hikes and views of the lava are extremely popular when it comes to this volcano hiking tour. One way to do it is to park near the Chain of Craters Road and then maneuver in over pretty rough terrain just before dusk to get your eyes on hot lava bursting from the ground. However, this is also dangerous for obvious reasons. Therefore, THE DO's: Because of the fact that you'll be close to molten lava, make sure to pack good hiking boots, sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water to drink. A good flashlight with fresh batteries is also a must-have. THE DON'Ts: Hikers who aren't in good health of shape should NOT attempt this hike for a number of reasons. Most notably, they include the danger of lava exposure and the extremely hostile terrain.

The voice was all she heard. Murmuring, imperative, it was the world and all there was, constant and inescapable. It wove around her, held her in its net, the only thing that was true and real. Heat and cold ran over her skin in shivering bursts, throwing sparks she couldn't see; she was lying on stone, on air, on water, on velvet that wavered and vanished and left her spinning in a void. Only the voice kept her from dissolving.
Once upon a time she'd had a name; once upon a time there had been something else, light and warmth and smiling faces--Nanny, Father, Mother--but they were dreams now, phantasms, ghosts. Nothing existed but the voice. She couldn't understand the words, but she did, somehow, they had meaning, weight, urgency. They told her what to do, drew her on, showed her the path to take. It was hard, hard--
The dreams came back, from time to time, sunshine and the taste of tea, ink on her fingers, her new gown, the young rector's smile, the hard clamp of a hand over her mouth. Came, and shattered, and were gone again. The voice was always there, whispering. Pulling her with it. Forcing her up a hill, and she wanted to go, she wanted to, the fire in her veins pushed her on. Bitterness choked her, turned to cloying sweetness and then to dust. She was so thirsty, but at the top of that hill--or was it a pit, was she going up or down--was culmination, was her goal, and once she'd reached it everything would be all right.
The voice. The voice was louder now, faster. Rhythmic and inescapable. Every syllable was a step up the road, and she ran, towards the darkness, stumbling but never quite falling. There, just there, was the goal, she felt it under her fingers, gripped it tight--
--Lifted it--
The voice stopped.
Her ears rang with its absence. Her head spun; her grip weakened. The goal vanished. There was nothing without the voice, nothing, and she hadn't--she hadn't--it wasn't right--
Other voices clamored, splintering around her in sharp echoes, but they were meaningless. Chill soaked into her, and all she could see was flickering shadows.
They swallowed her up.
The white-clad figure seated in the wheeled chair was motionless. Watson watched it as they approached along the graveled path, but the slight form didn't stir, and his heart sank yet again. She'd shown a little improvement last time, it was why he'd talked Holmes into coming along, but if she was back to catalepsy he didn't want to answer for his friend's mental state at the sight.
But Holmes showed no signs of the guilt that could plague him without warning. "Miss Patterson, I presume," he said, more to Watson than to the dark-haired girl. "The treatment was not entirely efficacious, I see."
"She was poisoned, Holmes," Watson said impatiently, knowing he was rising to the bait but unable to help himself. "She's lucky to be alive."
Holmes didn't even glance his way, instead dropping to a crouch in front of the wicker chair and reaching out to pick up one of the thin wrists. Miss Patterson didn't move, didn't so much as blink; her glazed stare seemed to watch something far beyond them both, beyond even the expansive grounds of the private sanitarium. Watson noted that her skin was paler than before, her cheeks hollower; she did swallow if spoon-fed, but he could already see the death certificate in his mind's eye, with failure to thrive as the cause of death, that frustrating catch-all for such mysterious wastings. He didn't believe it was supernatural, but she was dying all the same.
"A concoction of Blackwood's own devising, yes; it would have killed her soon enough, but that he didn't expect her to survive that long." Holmes took the pointed little chin in his other hand, cocking his head as if to catch Miss Patterson's blank gaze. "If not for your quick action, Watson, she wouldn't have at all."
Words of praise were rare enough from Holmes, but they brought no pride now. "Is this life?" Watson asked in a low voice, bitter. "The damage has been done. She's still dying--just more slowly."
"Oh, it's not damage," Holmes said, in that absent tone that meant his mind was miles ahead down some twisty track. "It's Blackwood's hypnosis. She's still in a trance."
Watson opened his mouth, closed it, opened it again. "What? Holmes, that's ridiculous. Blackwood's been dead for weeks--in actuality, this time. How could a trance persist this long?"
Holmes' lips twitched in sour amusement. "He was very good." He let go of Miss Patterson's chin and took her other hand as well; it lay limp and unresisting in his fingers. "Drugs and hypnosis to simulate the effect of a spell; more importantly, to make her slay herself. In the eyes of the Church, a most potent damnation."
Watson shook his head, feeling helpless. "Very well, Holmes, a trance. Blackwood's dead. There's no way to wake her."
The look Holmes shot him was impatient. "Of course there is. He had to hypnotise her more than once, to be sure the suggestion was in place. Ergo, he had to wake her."
There was no need to point out the obvious--that there was no way to tell what of a thousand thousand words or movements Blackwood might have chosen. Watson damned the man again for his monstrous ego, that would casually enslave and murder innocent girls for his power-grab, leaving this poor child locked inside herself even after he was gone--
Holmes leaned forward, whispering something in Miss Patterson's ear, and at the same moment dropped her hands to snap his fingers. She jolted, inhaled--and screamed.
Holmes flinched backwards, landing with an undignified thump on his backside, but Watson didn't spare him more than a glance. Miss Patterson was trembling like an aspen leaf, eyes huge, and as Watson bent down she shrank back against the chair--but she was awake. He smiled kindly at her. "It's all right, Charlotte," he soothed. "You're safe. It's all over."
She burst into tears.
When her quite natural hysteria had been calmed and the situation explained, Watson extricated himself from the huddle of astonished doctors and clucking nurses and went to look for his friend. He hadn't expected Holmes to wait around, and he hadn't; Watson ran him to ground in the far corner of the garden, sitting on a stone bench and speaking with a man bound in a strait-jacket. Watson waited with careful patience; Holmes finished the conversation and rose, tipping his hat to the old man and joining Watson a little ways down the path. "That was educational. Do you know, Watson, it's been quite some time since I've conversed with--"
"How did you know?" Watson interrupted. "How the bloody hell did you know?"
Holmes scoffed gently. "Oh, come, old chap. Blackwood was a showman. A snap of the fingers--" He demonstrated. "--Is always dramatic. As for the trigger word, a little Greek. Quite obvious."
He slid on his spectacles and smiled. Watson sighed, and then grinned. "I'll give you dramatic. So was you landing on your 'fluffy white tail' on the path. I'll treasure that memory."
Holmes sputtered. Watson snickered, and kept walking.

Mesa students experience distracted-driving 'mock crash'
MESA, Ariz. (KSAZ) - Even though the car wreck at Skyline High School was staged today, it brought back real memories for Maddy Mercer, who was involved in a bad crash the day of prom a few years ago.
"We flipped up onto the sidewalk and my head actually ended up hitting the window and so I was unconscious for a little bit and by that time, I remember waking up and hearing everyone screaming," she said.
Students watched the nightmare situation play out with fire crews, police and even a rescue helicopter.
SKYLINE HS: Students experience a simulated distracted driving car crash @FOX10Phoenix pic.twitter.com/XAaX0miXlH— Marcy Jones (@MarcyJonesFox10) March 28, 2017
"We show them what could happen if they do get involved in a distracted-driving accident and the repercussions they could face as far as law enforcement, and emotional trauma damage to other people," said Capt. Ken Hall with the Mesa Fire Department.
The visuals are meant for shock value in hopes of making the teens think twice before reaching for the phone or turning up the music. Rescuers say many times the difference between life and death can be just a few seconds.
"I think some of the students are extremely surprised at, you know, a text message that could take just four-to-five seconds to send on average, and then when they hear that if you're traveling 55 miles per hour, you will cover an entire football field; 100 yards," Capt. Hall said.

text: Ok, this may not be the correct place to put this post, but since there is just no general Droid, Droid X, and Droid 2 discussion area combined, I will put this in here. I currently have the original Droid 1 and was considering upgrading to the new Droid X. One thing I don't like is loosing the slide keyboard. So, I thought about the Droid 2, but here lies my problem. Why would anyone want to upgrade to the Droid 2 from the Droid 1? The only real difference I can seem to find is maybe a little more memory and the processor speed is faster. But why in the crap did they stick with a 3.7" screen (same as Droid 1), 5 megapixel camera (same as Droid 1). With all of the improvements available on the Droid X, why would anyone want the Droid 2. I am really looking for suggestions here, because I want to upgrade, but the Droid 2 just doesn't seem to have much to make me want to upgrade to it.

I grew up in a small town in the north of Italy where people never move much further than a few miles away. It has therefore been a challenge to undertake a chiropractic career as it meant, for a start, to move abroad to study for five years. But I did!
After spending two years at the French college in Paris, I transferred to Bournemouth where I qualified with Distinction from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic. This revealed to be a great choice as now I can also speak French!
My first encounter with this wonderful healthcare profession happened when I was fifteen. My father brought me to see a chiropractor for a check up of my back and I was astonished by his knowledge and comprehensive approach. The reason that really pushed me to know more about it though, was a surprising side effect my father had: as he was under care for some back pain, somehow, his asthma greatly improved!
Now, I am not saying that everybody's asthma will improve under chiropractic care, as I know that such a desirable effect cannot be planned, but seeing it with my eyes really had a great impact on me and my family.
Since then I understood that the body is a wonderful artwork of synergy and not just a collection of systems or organs independent from one another. This is something that I keep in mind when assessing people's complaints, whether they are a sportsman, an infant, or just an ordinary person like me.
I know how fundamental it is to be able not to give up those little things that are important in one's life and how these goals differ from person to person. There are things that are taken for granted by some, but that could mean much to others: to sleep on your favourite side, to pick up a child and hold him/her tight, to collect something on the floor without any help, to concentrate on something without having a headache, and many other "small things".

Where is the best food in Idaho? We are traveling with a four year old (that is an adventurous eater), so I guess I am looking more for road food, dives, and diners instead of 5-star joints. Thanks Chowhounders.

Angry mob confronts councillors over rate rise
There were angry scenes last night after Broken Hill City Council adopted its new operational and strategic plans for the next financial year.
The draft budget recommends mine rates be reduced by six percent, resulting in a worst-case scenario that would see residential rates increased to a top of 13 per cent and business rates to a maximum of 20 per cent.
Only Councillor Bob Algate opposed the draft, with Councillor Peter Black cautiously passing the document he described as "indigestible gobbledygook".
But it was outside chambers that the debate reached a volatile pitch.
A small but noisy crowd, including by-election candidate Tom Kennedy, shouted abuse at councillors as they left.
Ratepayer Aaron Dewsbery was among them.
"I'm just disappointed with the council, they don't really give a s*** about anyone in this town but their own coffers, it's obvious," he said.
Councillor Branko Licul was one of the few who dared to confront the mob.
"There was obviously some angry people there at the decision," he said.
"But I must remind people it is a draft operational plan.
"It will be on display for public comment for 28 days at the council office and on its website."
But Mayor Wincen Cuy was unapologetic, saying councillors had a right to their opinions.
He says he was particularly dismayed at a comment by a member of the group that was directed at deputy mayor Darriea Turley.
"To have the abuse thrown at female councillors, calling her the son of Satan, what an absolute disgrace," Cr Cuy said.
"This goes back to probably the mentality of the mob led by Mr Kennedy.
"Whether it's in council or outside of council or on a soccer field - it's bully-boy tactics."
Tom Kennedy says it is the mayor who is a disgrace for raising business rates by up to $6,000 a year.
"It's an absolute disgrace and I'm quite happy to say here today on the radio what I said out the front out of the meeting and that is Wincen Cuy is a disgrace for increasing business rates by 20 per cent," he said.
Mr Kennedy says he is not responsible for the actions of other people who protested outside the meeting.
The draft operational and community strategic plans can be seen here.

Hillary's Popular Vote Win Came ENTIRELY From California | The Federalist Papers:
"The purpose of the Electoral College is to prevent regional candidates from dominating national elections.
California is now a one-party state. There were zero Republicans running for statewide office and no GOP candidates in nine of California's congressional districts. At the state level, Investor's Business Daily reports, six districts had no Republicans for the state senate and 16 districts had no Republicans for the state assembly."

Today is my last day here. I'm packing, hanging out with Louie, going to my favorite Italian restaurant with my sweetie for dinner, and getting a mani/pedi. I've traced out a new embroidery project to bring with me since my sewing machine will be staying here for a while. I think it's perfectly appropriate for me and my new journey.
This space will probably be quiet for a while as I settle in. But I'll be back! :)

Amateur Baseball: Willmar Rails fall to Brownton
BROWNTON -- A rough start handicapped Willmar's chances of winning its opener as Brownton outlasted the Rails 11-8 Friday in amateur baseball.
Willmar starter Troy Ditterich was roughed up for 10 runs and nine hits in the first two innings as Brownton built a comfortable lead. The Bruins plated seven runs in the first after sending up 12 batters to the plate to produce five hits and take advantage of three walks.
Darin Ditterich then gave the Rails a chance to catch up as the left-hander threw five effective innings, surrendering four hits and one run.
The Rails scored twice in sixth and eighth before scoring four runs in the ninth to make things interesting. Alex Marcus, who went 3-for-5, doubled in two runs in the eighth. Mark Krogstad also had three hits for Willmar and had run-scoring singles in the sixth and ninth.
Spencer Glaeser went 4-for-5 to ignite a 13-hit attack for the Bruins. Joe Ahlers struck out seven and gave up four hits in seven innings of work to earn the win.

- Hello Kendra,
I feel for you and Indy.
My TJ had difficulty walking with his hind legs this past Wednesday. He is a
patient of Purdue's Small Animal Hospital. I had been told because of his heart
condition, he has the potential to throw blood clots. I spoke with his
cardiologist and she felt he might have thrown a small blood clot. He was
prescribed 1/4 of 75 mg clopidogrel (plavix generic) pill 1X day. In addition
to his current medicine (1/4 of 5mg benazepril 1x day and 1/4 of 12.5 mg lasix
2X day).
TJ's cardiologist has previously told me there are treatments for saddle
thrombus despite what the literature says. Purdue Small Animal Hospital is a 24
hr 7 day week facility (tele: 765-494-1107). They will consult with general
veterinary practitioners.
Based on what I have been told, if a kitty has a heart condition it is assumed
to be HCM unless they can determine otherwise.
It sounds like Indy is being a trooper and has a will to live. When I see this
in my kitties, I continue to get and give them treatment. I'd continue to feed
and hydrate. It might be touch and go for an uncomfortable amount of time.
If he begins to have labored breathing then I'd drive directly to an emergency
vet service. When TJ was in cogestive heart failure, he was given a lasix
intramuscular injection, followed-up with pill doses. He received his inital
treatment at the Airport Animal Emergency Hospital in Indianapolis.
Please keep us posted on Indy's health. I am praying for his solid recovery.

The sequential sampling of populations with unequal probabilities and with replacement in a closed population is a recurrent problem in ecology and evolution. Examples range from biodiversity sampling, epidemiology to the estimation of signal repertoire in animal communication. Many of these questions can be reformulated as urn problems, often as special cases of the coupon collector problem, most simply expressed as the number of coupons that must be collected to have a complete set. We aimed to apply the coupon collector model in a comprehensive manner to one example—hosts (balls) being searched (draws) and parasitized (ball colour change) by parasitic wasps—to evaluate the influence of differences in sampling probabilities between items on collection speed. Based on the model of a complete multinomial process over time, we define the distribution, distribution function, expectation and variance of the number of hosts parasitized after a given time, as well as the inverse problem, estimating the sampling effort. We develop the relationship between the risk distribution on the set of hosts and the speed of parasitization and propose a more elegant proof of the weak stochastic dominance among speeds of parasitization, using the concept of Schur convexity and the 'Robin Hood transfer' numerical operation. Numerical examples are provided and a conjecture about strong dominance—an ordering characteristic of random variables—is proposed. The speed at which new items are discovered is a function of the entire shape of the sampling probability distribution. The sole comparison of values of variances is not sufficient to compare speeds associated with different distributions, as generally assumed in ecological studies.

Maccabi Tel Aviv extended its BSL winning streak to 12 games on Sunday night, defeating Maccabi Haifa 76-64 at Nokia Arena with already one eye on Thursday's Euroleague Top 16 encounter at Besiktas JK in Turkey.Last Thursday's heartbreaking 78-77 loss to Olympiacos at Nokia saw Maccabi fall to 1-4 in Top 16 Group F and Sunday's win over Haifa did little to lift the yellow-and-blue's spirits.

Great value, great service
Fit for a Pit offered a quick and personable response when I inquired about sizing for this item. We decided to size up for our growing puppy. We were in between sizes, and went up a size. The velcro closure had enough flexibility in size that the poncho worked out just fine. The rain poncho is lighweight - and was a great way to introduce our puppy to rain coats. Since it is light weight, it isn't best in strong winds, but works perfect for walks or bathroom breaks in a steady rain. Our dog would practically refuse to go outside if it was raining, and now she will go for a short walk with her rain coat on! 5 stars.

Unanswered: Concept Of Schemas
I have looked around a bit on the web but did not find a definitive answer/example.
I want to be able to discern different customer data by using the concept of schemas.
For example
SELECT * from BIGDB.Customer1.patient_information
WHERE BIGDB is the database and Customer1 is the schema
and lastly the table
If it does support schemas like this, sorry another question, can you backup and restore individual schemas?
As I indicated I have searched for a while now and am either not getting it, it does not exist, or I am searching with the incorrect 'terms'

Dystopian literature is any form of literature dealing with dystopian themes. Dystopian refers to a society that is dysfunctional and characterized by general suffering of the people, an oposite of a utopia.
Common themes in historical dystopian literature
Some authors of historical dystopian literature, such Huxley, George Orwell, H. G. Wells, and Yevgeny Zamyatin, share many themes in their work. Some of these themes are
Mastery of nature
Control and order vs. freedom and chaos
altruism vs. egoism
Authors & their choices in writing dystopian literature
Authors have many reasons for choosing the themes they do, but there are many similarities among them, usually dealing with things going on in their lives at the time. SOme example are:
Enviornmental events
political movements
other world events
Concerns within society & their impact on dystopian literature
Like in the last slide, events around the world impact dystopian literature, and those concerns can be clearly seen within the themes chosen my dystopian authors These similarities include:
Propaganda and oppressive govn't rule(like in Nazi Germany)
free will, ideologies, and other thoughts also from the same area
Dystopian Literature
Some reasons authors would choose to explore specific themes through Dystopian Literature
"The Dystopian Trend in Young Adult Literature." Teen
Ink. N.p., n.d. Web. 03 Sept. 2014.
Dictionary.com. Dictionary.com, n.d. Web. 03 Sept.
"Introduction" Contemporary Literary Criticism Ed.
Janet Witalec. Vol. 168. Gale Cengage 2003 eNotes.com 4 Sep, 2014 <http://www.enotes.com/topics/dystopias-contemporary-literature#critical-essays-dystopias-contemporary-literature-introduction>
"Dystopian Literature." Dystopian Literature. N.p., n.d.
Web. 04 Sept. 2014.
"The Dystopian Timeline to The Hunger Games
[INFOGRAPHIC]." Goodreads. N.p., n.d. Web. 04 Sept. 2014.
Authors would choose to explore themes through dystopian literature because these books have a very specific style, and through that style, some themes are east to do that are not so in other books.
Examples of dystopian literature with common themes
Animal Farm, The Hunger Games, V for Vendetta, and Anthem all have the theme of opression
Mastery of Nature
How concerns within society affect themes in dystopian novels
Mastery of nature centers around man asserting dominance over nature until the point the land is left barren or nature revolts.
This theme is present in:
Brave New World
Often in dystopian novels, the author will use concerns within society, but as if they had gone to the worst possible end, to express their views and try to get a point out there.
Order and control vs freedom and chaos
This theme centers around how society has grown to oppress its people and possible revolt and change that would fill the plot of these novels
Present in
Altruism vs. Egoism
This theme centers around a society's ideals, and its peoples concerns about whether one should work for the greater good to the point of oppression or be one's self and possibly gain at the suffering of others
Some works with this theme include
Fahrenheit 451
Propaganda is seen in many dystopian works as a mean of control and forcing ideals onto society. Present in oppressive countries where many dystopian novels were written, this theme also transfered into these author's work
Some novels including propaganda are
Fahrenheit 451

Two big cases got most of the news coverage: Hobby Lobby and the National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) recess appointments. In both cases, the administration lost. At the core of both, is the issue of the administration's overreach.
Within the cases the Supreme Court heard, one had to do with energy: Utility Air Regulatory Group (UARG) v. Environmental Protection Agency — and it, too, offered a rebuke.
The UARG v. EPA decision came down on June 23. The decision was mixed — with both sides claiming victory. Looking closely, there is cause for optimism from all who question the president's authority to rewrite laws.
A portion of the UARG v. EPA case was about the EPA's "Tailoring Rule" in which it "tailored" a statutory provision in the Clean Air Act — designed to regulate traditional pollutants such as particulate matter — to make it work for CO2. In effect, the EPA wanted to rewrite the law to achieve its goals. The decision, written by Justice Antonin Scalia for the majority, stated:
"Were we to recognize the authority claimed by EPA in the Tailoring Rule, we would deal a severe blow to the Constitution's separation of powers… The power of executing laws…does not include a power to revise clear statutory terms that turn out not to work in practice."
The Supreme Court did allow the EPA to regulate CO2 emissions from sources that already require permits due to other pollutants — and therefore allowed the EPA and environmentalists to claim victory because the decision reaffirmed the EPA does have the authority to regulate CO2 emissions. However, at the same time, the decision restricted the EPA's expansion of authority. Reflecting the mixed decision, the Washington Post said the decision was: "simultaneously very significant and somewhat inconsequential."
It is the "very significant" portion of the decision that is noteworthy in light of the new rules the EPA announced on June 2.
Currently, the Clean Air Act is the only vehicle available to the Administration to regulate CO2 from power plant and factory emissions. However, the proposed rules that severely restrict allowable CO2 emissions from existing power plants bear some similarities to what the Supreme Court just invalidated: both involve an expansive interpretation of the Clean Air Act.
In his review of the UARG v. EPA decision, Nathan Richardson, a Resident Scholar at Resources For the Future, says: "In strict legal terms, this decision has no effect on EPA's plans to regulate new or existing power plants with performance standards. … However, if EPA is looking for something to worry about, it can find it in this line from Scalia:"
When an agency claims to discover in a long-extant statute an unheralded power to regulate a significant portion of the American economy … we typically greet its announcement with a measure of skepticism. We expect Congress to speak clearly if it wishes to assign an agency decisions of vast "economic and political significance."
The UARG v. EPA decision is especially important when added to the more widely known Hobby Lobby and NLRB cases. Justice Scalia's opinion invites Congress to "speak clearly" on agency authority. It is now up to our elected representatives to rise to the occasion and pass legislation that leaves "decisions of vast 'economic and political significance'" in its hands alone.
The decision — while "somewhat inconsequential" — is, in fact, "very significant." The Supreme Court has, perhaps, outlined the first legislation of the new, reformatted, post-2014-election Congress.

Gardai rush to home of criminal 'under attack'
Tensions remain high in Dublin, with one criminal yesterday calling emergency services to his West Dublin home fearing he was under attack.
The criminal - an associate of Gary Hutch - sparked a bizarre incident when two men approached the front door of his home in Lucan yesterday afternoon.
The man believed the two men were brothers linked to the Kinahan cartel.
Fearing the worst, the man frantically called the emergency services, saying he was about to be attacked. Armed gardai rushed to the scene, but the two men had left by the time they arrived.
Two hours later, gardai established that the two men were innocent and not linked to the Kinahan gang.
Although the incident ultimately came to nothing, it is a sign of the tensions in the city.
Following the Regency Hotel shootings, where criminal David Byrne was murdered, and the gunning down of Eddie Hutch Snr at his home in Ballybough on Monday night, armed gardai are on high alert.
Heavily-armed members of the Emergency Response Unit have been patrolling streets in the north and south inner city since.
The development comes as officers privately admit they are shocked by the events.
Up to 40 key criminals are under surveillance by gardai. In recent months, many have been warned their lives are under threat.
Meanwhile, gardai are still searching for a close associate of Gary Hutch who has been identified in photographs taken shortly after the Regency Hotel attack last Friday.
The man, who is in his 20s and from the north inner-city, was dressed as a woman. A second man, who is stocky and wearing a cap, is also believed to have been identified and is thought to be from the North.
The two men were part of a six-man hit squad.
Two of the attackers were armed with AK-47s and wearing fake garda uniforms when they stormed the hotel and shot dead Byrne. A getaway driver whisked the group away after the shocking attack.

Our Success
Treatment Goals:
At least 90% of the patients admitted to the intensive day treatment program at the Cindy and Tod Johnson Center for Pediatric Feeding Disorders at St. Mary's Hospital for Children meet all of their admission goals. These positive outcomes are echoed in family satisfaction ratings of a 4 or a 5 (4-satisfied) and (5-extremely satisfied).
Parent/Caregiver Satisfaction: A recent survey conducted showed that parents and guardians gave high ratings for program satisfaction and program effectiveness. On a satisfaction scale of 1 to 5 the Feeding Program scored an average of 4.8 for the following questions:
- How satisfied were you that the feeding program was beneficial to your child?
- How satisfied were you with the overall services of the feeding clinic?
- How acceptable was the intervention developed by the feeding program for your child?
- How satisfied were you with the appropriateness of the recommendation made by the feeding program for your child?
- How satisfied were you with the ease of using the intervention with your child?
"It feels good to be able to have a normal family dinner together! Michael is finally eating healthy and actually enjoying his food." – Mother of child who was born prematurely with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, failure to thrive, and G-tube dependency.
"I am very grateful to the feeding program. They have done so much for my son. As soon as he walked in, they showed him they cared; they showed us they wanted to help him. You could just see it on their faces…The feeding program has done so much for Gilbert that it is practically a miracle. They got him to eat and drink. This hospital changed my life completely." – Mother of a child born with a diaphragmatic hernia and was NG-tube dependent.
"Angela was stuck on chocolate Pediasure for over 5 years and nothing else. After the second day at St. Mary's Feeding Program, she was actually eating her favorite Cheetos instead of just licking them." – Mother of child diagnosed with failure to thrive and was completely dependent on supplemental formula to maintain her weight.

Interview: PlayRadioPlay!
Fri, 21 Mar 2008 08:23:43
PlayRadioPlay! sounds like impending sonic evolution. On Texas, PRP's debut, swirling electronics cascade into pop-punk melodies that are nothing short alternative music gold. The songs are catchy, witty and just plain engaging. Texas paints pictures of pirates and high school love over a dance-y electro beat. Dan Hunter, the sole multimedia-master behind PRP, is the kind of young quirky, enigmatic musician that could actually speak to Facebook Nation and get them dancing at the same time. Dan sat down with ARTISTdirect to discuss writing about pirates, composing music and much more.
Given that you're the sole songwriter on Texas, where do you usually start writing—on a keyboard, guitar or piano? Where does it begin?
It varies every time. There isn't really a formula. Sometimes I'll be programming, and I'll get an idea and add vocals to it. Sometimes I'll have a guitar part that I'll add vocals to. In general, it's easy to start with programming or guitar, and then write a vocal melody over it. After that, I add lyrics halfway through.
The lyrics are striking, because they're catchy and very vivid.
A lot of people don't really like them, because they think they're childish. But, whatev.
Honestly, they're fun. You're exploring different relationship themes in a light-hearted, but intelligent manner.
I'd like to think it's intelligent, talking about pirates and stuff [laughs].
With all of the electronic flourishes and textures, do you come from a big electronic music background?
I started PlayRadioPlay! three years ago, as a result of getting into electronic programming in a music tech class in high school. I just found it interesting, because I've always been a technology person. I always liked computers and building sounds electronically. I was really interested in doing more with music than just guitars, bass and drums. I felt like that was a worn-out formula. I really do it because electronic music gives you a way to explore sounds and vibes. It also offers a much broader spectrum beyond having a few elements to work with.
Electronic music breaks down boundaries and borders, because you can do so much. You blend that avant-garde sensibility with the classic hook structures too.
It's really not something that I ever think about too much. The guy that mixed Texas has hundreds of records. He told me where all the influences were coming from in my music, and I was like, "Oh I've never heard of any of them" [laughs]. It's really just what sounds natural to me and what goes on in the back of my head.
When did you start composing music?
I started writing music four or five years ago when I first started playing bass. I played in punk bands in high school. I wrote and sang. I kind of wanted to sound like Tom Delonge, I guess. I didn't really find my true voice until the last three years.
Did you always compose alone?
No, I always wrote with a guitarist—a friend of mine. He and I always wrote together. Once I wanted to continue doing something, I looked for bands. I had the gear to record stuff and started recording stuff myself, and I dissolved this interest into doing everything myself. Now I wouldn't do it any other way.
Live, are you going to have a band?
Yeah, I have a live band. It's been everywhere from a six-piece to a three-piece. I'm just playing with a drummer and a synth player now. And I'm playing guitar and singing.
Is it hard to translate the more electronic sounds to the live setting?
Yeah, sometimes. My synth player has to have three keyboards that all have patches on them to kind of lacerate sounds. My drummer plays the kick drum and stuff. It's not the typical drummer and keyboardist gig. I had to have people who were pretty patient in learning what I wanted them to do. It's definitely not easy.
So, what's the music scene like where you're from?
When I first started playing music, Dallas had so many kids in bands. This place I played a lot had shows Fridays and Saturdays, and pretty much, if you could draw kids there, you could headline there. It's really a cool system for people who are playing out. You just get lots of kids from your high school to go, and you start developing a fan base. These days after a few bands from the area had started getting signed, it seems like a big priority for a lot of bands in the area to get signed rather than play music. It kind of sucks on that level, but there are still cool bands around.
Was there a certain significance for you with naming the record Texas?
That probably would've always been something I wanted to name a record. I had always assumed that it had been done before, and when I found out it hadn't, that's when I chose the name of the record. There's no other name for it. I mean, yeah, it speaks for itself as a title for an album that comes from a Texan.
You had the superhero thing going on in your video for "Madi, Don't Leave." What's that all about?
The video's about the director of this homemade movie who's aspiring to greatness. He has a fling with the main actress in the movie, and she is dressed as a superhero. In the end, he's so busy working on the film that she falls into the hands of the main superhero, who is a better looking dude, I guess. The director gave me a few concepts for a video idea, and that's what I picked.
You've had a lot of attention and success from MySpace. What do you think of that, as a medium for getting your music across?
As far as for kids who are just starting out and looking for people to hear their music, that's like the perfect forum. You can just ask people to listen. That's pretty much what I did. I just posted things for free and made them downloadable. Even though it sucked, there are a lot of kids on MySpace, and a few of them liked it. But I mean, you hear a lot of the bad things on there. I think it's better for the kids that are in the garage, rather than the band trying to get signed. The hardest little area of evolving as an artist is right at the beginning. When you first try to start something, you don't really see any reward in writing your first few songs, because you're not playing shows or anything. I think, for a lot of kids, the internet is the best place to begin.
—Rick Florino

Laboratory Methods
Immunoassays are the most common technique used by clinical laboratories for therapeutic drug monitoring.
Antibodies that recognize specific drugs have been developed. Although most drugs are much too small to evoke an immune response, scientists can conjugate drugs to immunogenic proteins to produce antibodies that recognize drug-specific epitopes.
There are several methods that utilize the principles of immunoassay for detection and quantification of therapeutic drugs in serum. Some of these methods are:

I was in my 10th-grade year in high school when I began getting into a lot of trouble both at home and at school. I was becoming a disruption in my classes, and my grades began to fall dramatically. My parents were worried about me, and so was I. I didn't know what I wanted to do in life. With about three weeks left to go in the year, I was expelled from school. I was sent to an "alternative school," which did not provide any classes to actually further my education, so I stopped going. My parents began to home-school me, and during the summer of my 10th-grade year, I began taking college classes. I realized that high school was not for me, and at the beginning of the next year, I enrolled full-time in community college. I learned at this point that it takes hard work, dedication, and determination to succeed. Over the next year and a half, I earned my associate's degree at just 17. From there I transferred to a four-year university, where the same values paid off.

I had to convince them that this information was critical for us to gain market access, especially related to managed-care formularies. The FDA approved the line extension.
Annually, a year-end tournament capped off lessons at my tennis club. However, students had started losing interest in the tournament. Three years ago, I figured out a way to motivate the kids to play in the tournament by making it much more age-friendly. I suggested to the head coach that we all pitch in to buy prizes for the students and trophies for the winners and have other games and exercises going on while the tournament took place. The result was a 40 percent increase in participants and a significant increase in the crowds of family and friends that came out to watch.

BOSTON -- Jeff Green, then with the Oklahoma City Thunder, happened to be flipping through television channels back on Jan. 28 when he stumbled upon the national broadcast of the game between the Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns.
Even as a casual observer, he couldn't help but be intrigued by the intensity of a nonconference game that saw tempers repeatedly flare, culminating with Boston coach Doc Rivers and forward Kevin Garnett getting ejected during the Celtics' worst loss of the 2010-11 season.
It's a good thing Green, dealt to Boston last week, got that glimpse, or the emotions on display Wednesday night during his TD Garden debut might have seemed odd.
"I had seen how heated it was," Green said. "I was talking to [Garnett] before the game and [the Celtics] were ready for this game. That's why they came out so intense in the first couple minutes."
Garnett, whose dust-up with Channing Frye in the first meeting led to not only his ejection but a critique of his on-court decorum by Suns coach Alvin Gentry in the days that followed, responded Wednesday night by connecting on 12 of 14 shots for 28 points, his season high, to go with 11 rebounds in a 115-103 triumph.
Garnett flat out abused Frye, hitting his first five shots while putting up 12 first-quarter points in less than 10 minutes of action. That helped Boston build an early double-digit lead that ballooned as high as 29 in the third quarter, by which time Garnett had done all his damage.
"I didn't like the way I played the last time we played the Suns, so I made it a point this time to play better, and that's what I did," said Garnett, who then shot his eyebrows skyward a few times as if acknowledging he had given a stock answer when clearly this game meant more than your typical Wednesday joust.
Pressed on the hailstorm of criticism he received from Phoenix (and beyond) for a low-blow on Frye, Garnett sounded off a bit on the Suns.
"I don't really care [about what Phoenix said], but don't make stuff up, especially when it's not true," Garnett said. "I'm far from dirty. I play the game really hard, I play with my heart, and I'm never going to make excuses about that. So who cares what they're talking about?"
Try as he might to ignore it, Garnett reached his boiling point late in Wednesday's game when, according to multiple Celtics, Gentry injected himself into verbal warfare from the bench, directing his venom at Garnett.
Garnett got tagged with a technical foul for barking back with 16.2 seconds remaining. He played coy afterward, but took a not-so-veiled shot at Gentry and Co. when asked about the tech.
"Oh, Alvin Gentry was asking me for tickets for the first round of the playoffs and I told him I'd hook him up," Garnett said.
Asked if it was uncommon to hear an opposing coach barking at a player, Garnett nodded and said, "Very uncommon, but they're an uncommon team."
Even Rivers, who typically strays from all the extracurricular talk, made a point in his postgame remarks to express disappointment in how the final seconds played out. (Rajon Rondo also drew a last-second foul while trying to put up a final shot.)
Rivers also didn't hide from the fact that his players were extra motivated for the game.
"I think all our guys were [motivated]," Rivers said. "That's what the explosion early was about. And the tech at the end of the game, I thought that was not a great tech, in my opinion. I thought [the Phoenix] bench, their coaches were talking, which I don't think you should ever do if you have a suit and tie on and actually can't play. I don't think you should be doing a lot of talking to the players on the floor. It's just my opinion."
Gentry shrugged at a question about whether Garnett's play stemmed from the attack on his character.
"I don't know, you have to ask him that," Gentry said. "I'm sure if it is, Doc hopes he gets pissed off at every coach in the league. I don't see anything. I think we're making a big deal out of nothing. In the grand scheme of things, it's one game that we play, and he played great, [so] you've got to give him credit. He played great defensively, and offensively made everything going to the basket, made some jump shots. He's tough to guard in those situations."
"Those situations" might as well have been referring to times when Garnett has extra motivation -- not that he typically needs any.
Few things draw better results out of Garnett than verbal sparring with an opponent. Just ask the likes of Joakim Noah, Charlie Villanueva or any of the other so-called "nobodies" on whom Garnett has taken out his aggression this season.
Rivers didn't have to worry about getting his troops inspired for Wednesday's game. He could tell from the pregame walk-through that their intensity was on point. It only faded after the Celtics had built a 29-point lead in the third quarter, allowing the Suns to make things interesting until the final moments.
Rivers wouldn't take the bait when asked if the Suns did Boston a favor by yapping. But the answer was obvious.
"Well, I don't know if they did or not, but we were definitely alert," Rivers said. "You could see it in the shootaround. You know, it's rare that I say, 'Well, we're going to play well' before a game. Half the time when I say it, I'm wrong.
"But I was right today."
