The "On Hold" System
As part of our Daily 5 procedures, when students are doing Read-to-Self (independent reading) or Read-to-Someone (partner reading), I do not allow students to get up and visit our library, since that takes away actual reading time. Instead, I've built time into students' morning routine to "get their book basket ready for the whole day." Putting this responsibility at the start of our day has kept it a priority.
Pulling one of the categories from the classroom library and featuring it in some way can help get students into the deepest corners of what's really in there. Often, my students get stuck in a rut, choosing books from the categories they are most familiar with, and may not even be aware of some of the great texts that are at their fingertips. So I like to highlight some that may not be students' obvious choice. It might be as simple as setting the category's container on a table and mentioning it to the class. Or if you have a spot to display some of the books from the category, it gives the category some "curb appeal." Every so often, it can be fun to have a student choose the category to be spotlighted.
When students shop each other, they mill about, checking out what their classmates are reading, have just finished reading, or are about to read. It really gives the class a shot of rejuvenation. I encourage a bit of friendly negotiation... "Oh, you're finished with that? I'd love to have it. Thanks!" or "When do you think you'll be finished with that book?" or "When you start this book, how about we read it as partners?" Some students even make a note about which books they want to get from the library at later time.
My "Current Favorites" Shelf
So this idea is a trickle-down effect, but bear with me. I keep a shelf in my classroom (a rain gutter screwed into the wall, actually, but any bookshelf or whiteboard tray would work) that holds my personal favorite children's books. An important part of the idea is that the books change. So really, the books I put on that shelf are my favorites at that moment.
I think the concept directly contributes to a healthy, growing "reading atmosphere." It shows that you (1) read, (2) have read enough books to distinguish some of them as your favorites, and (3) continue to read and read some more, because your favorites change. And when you are an authentic model, the mood of your room follows, and subsequently, trickles down into students' interactions with the classroom library.
A lot of students crave the opportunity to tell the class about a book they should read, but I rarely can devote enough time for it to happen. Enter, the 10-Sec-Rec. The idea is to give each student 10 seconds to recommend a book to the class.
Gather students in a circle, each one with a recently read book that they enjoyed. It helps to give students advance notice of the activity, so they have time to choose the book they'll use. Since each student gets literally only ten seconds to talk, a round of 10-Sec-Recs takes an average-sized class only about five minutes to complete.
With students in a circle holding their books, and you with your eye on the second hand of the clock, the first student begins: he holds the book in front of him for all to see, says the title out loud, where to find it in the library, and a blurb about why he is recommending it... "My book is 10 Greatest Battles. You can find it in the "History" Basket. I like that it tells how many people died in each battle." (I have the rule that you have to give a specific reason; you can't just say, "It's so good," or "It's an awesome book.") Ten seconds run out, I say "time's up," point to the next person, and say, "go." Afterward, you can have students return the books to their correct location for others to find, or I've also just had students put their books on the floor, right in the middle of the circle, and called a few students at a time to grab one they wanted.
After all the student orders are in, I'll decide how many bonus points I want to let them spend, convert the number to a rough dollar amount, then let the group browse a book order form and choose which new books the classroom library needs.
One of the signs of trouble I listen for is when students start telling me they can't find anything to read. Clearly, there is actually plenty to read. One way to uncover some reading options students might not otherwise find (or not bother to try) is to recruit help from the rest of the class by introducing a "Hidden Gems" bucket.
It's a special category for favorite books that are not part of one of our already popular categories. When I introduce the "Hidden Gems" bucket, I put a few books in it to get started, but then all students are invited to add books and take books from the bucket.

So simple, but so powerful.
Once I get to know my students as readers, I begin making book recommendations to specific students. It takes awhile before I start doing this because if I get it wrong too often (i.e. if I recommend a book to a student and they hate it), then students will lose faith in me as a book source. But it's a special moment when I show a book to a student, and they have the look that says, "Wow, you care about me enough to specially pick out this book for me, just for me, because you thought I'd like it."
If I earn a bit of reliability in the recommendation department, then I can start guiding certain students in new, exciting directions with their reading.
Scheduling mini classroom library "events" using a calendar that your whole class can see kills so many birds with so few stones (uh, bad use of an idiom, sorry). A few:
- The events in themselves help continue to breathe life into your classroom library.
- Having the events visible on a calendar builds anticipation and excitement.
- Scheduling the events helps you and your class be proactive about keeping the classroom library, and reading in general, a priority.
I tried this whole idea towards the end of last year and my kids loved it, so this year, I'm putting two or three "events" on the calendar each month. And when I say "event," I'm not talking about anything huge and fancy. But we can look forward to them and have a little accountability to make them happen. Here are a few suggestions.
- "Friday Finds": Students share a book they "found" that is worth reading.
- "Monday Makeovers": Give students a chance to do a complete "makeover" on their book baskets... return old books, find a few fresh ones, clean out the junk, even make a new bookmark to keep inside.
- "Tuesday Trades": Students get with partners and trade a book from their book baskets.
- "Wednesday Want That": Get students' input of books and series that they want for the library. Make a list and keep it handy next time you have a chance to grab a few new books.
- "Throwback Thursday": Have all students get a favorite book from the classroom library that they've read a long time ago, and give them time to read them with partners.
- "Friday Filers": Devote some time to spruce up and organize the library, filing all of the misplaced books. This sometimes works better with just a group of students in charge (but you might be surprised at how many students love doing it.)
I always set out a little basket in the library, filled with bookmarks. I used to be pretty stingy about how many bookmarks students could take, but then I started just putting a pack of blank index cards in the basket, which work just fine as bookmarks, but sure aren't very charming.
So every now and then, I'll have a few students design bookmarks for the class. I take a piece of paper, cut it into four columns, and give each one to a student to draw a design based on a favorite book, kind of like little advertisements for some of the books we have in our library. When I get the four pieces back, I arrange them back together and make a dozen photocopies. I cut them apart and now have about 50 bookmarks for the class that students love because they are made by "one of their own."
Though it's easy enough to use a sheet of blank paper, here is a fun sheet of bookmark templates for you. Just click the image to the left.
Annual book awards are fun and make a lasting impression on the classroom library for years to come. I do book awards sometime in the spring, after the class has had plenty of time to read books from our library.
First, I show my class the books that won awards from last year's class, labeled with yellow star stickers and the year from which it won. (Note: Usually some students notice these stickers early in the year, by chance, and are curious about what they mean. I tell them what they are, but don't "show all my cards" about how it works until it's time to actually do it.) Then we have a week of nominations, where I'll set out an empty bucket for each award category (I do: favorite chapter book, favorite picture book, and favorite nonfiction book.) Each student can nominate only one book (so we don't have too many to vote on). To nominate a book, they simply put it in a nomination bucket.
The following week is used to give students a chance to read the nominated books. I set the buckets in a central location and students can come read any of them, but they must return them to the nomination buckets by the end of each day. And at the end of the week, we vote! (I keep it simple and just do a raise-your-hand style vote.) The top two or three books in each category get new stickers with the current year and will forever be winners!
I don't think this idea needs any sliding scales. And it's not my idea, anyway. Reading a novel out loud to your class is less to do with your classroom library, and more to do with developing a culture of reading in your classroom, which may in turn have a positive effect on your classroom library.
Reading to my students is my favorite part of the day. Do I have time for it? Of course not. But I make a little time here and there, so I'm reading a bit of a novel every day. I teach third grade, and I always start with Shiloh. As I write this, my class and I are a good ways into the book, right where Marty is trying to figure out how to buy Shiloh from mean old Judd Travers... oh, I digress. But I can't wait to read them the next page.
So that's it.
I hope something good happens to your classroom library because of reading this. (And if you've read all five parts in the series, I hope something extra good happens.) And if not, I hope I've given you some things to think about, and maybe some confirmations and support for why you already do what you do.
A classroom library has such potential to be one of the strongest supports in students' reading journeys. So go make the most of it.

Evaluating the effects of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation
Author's contribution to the paper
All of the authors have contributed to the study on conception and design, data collection, analysis and interpretation of data, drafting the article, revising it critically for important intellectual content, and final approval of the version to be published. Betül Tosun, Ayla Yava and Cengizhan Açıkel are in agreement with the content of the manuscript.
Ethics approval
The protocol for the research project has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Gulhane Military Medical Academy within which the work was undertaken, and it conforms to the provisions of the Declaration of Helsinki in 1995 (as revised in Edinburgh 2000). Ethical Council Approval Number: 1491-1250-11/1539.
Informed consent and anonymity
All the subjects/participants were enrolled in the study after informed consent and the participant anonymity was preserved.
This research received no specific grant from any funding agency in the public, commercial or not-for-profit sectors.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Although traditional long-term fasting is not recommended in current preoperative guidelines, this is still a common intervention. Visual analogue scale was used to assess hunger, thirst, sleepiness, exhaustion, nausea and pain; State and Trait Anxiety Inventory was used to assess the preoperative anxiety of 99 patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mean time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation were, respectively, 14.70 ± 3.14 and 11.25 ± 3.74 h. Preoperatively, 58.60% of the patients experienced moderate anxiety. Patients fasting 12 h or longer had higher hunger, thirst, nausea and pain scores. The mean trait anxiety score of patients fasting 12 h or longer was statistically significantly higher. Receiving nothing by mouth after midnight preoperatively is a persisted intervention and results in discomfort of patients. Clinical protocols should be revised and nurses should be trained in current fasting protocols.

Rebel Wilson likes being curvy.
The 35-year-old actress, who is launching her own capsule clothing collection for Torrid next month, insists she has no problem with the term "plus-size."
She said: "To me, getting an A+ in school is better than getting an A and I'm being called 'plus.' I kind of like being curvy and eating dessert every second night so that's kinda why I am the way I am."
The 'Pitch Perfect' star wants to be a positive role model for young women by promoting a healthy body image.
She told E! News at the launch of her new line at the Milk Studios in Los Angeles on Thursday night (22.10.15): "I think all you should be worried about is if you're healthy. If you're unhealthy, you should maybe do something about it."
She also recently said: "I was always the kind of person who cared what was on the inside. I'm a person who uses my brain; it's not really about my personal aesthetic. But then I realised that if girls can see me standing next to really skinny actresses holding my own and being really confident in how I look, then that's a good message to send."
The Australian star decided to launch her own line after she noticed there were very few glamorous options for curvy young women.
She told PEOPLE magazine: "A lot of plus-size clothing didn't seem cool or on-trend. It was kind of like what your auntie would wear to a wedding."

Cities, States Use Ads To Promote Welfare-To-Work
May 24, 1999
Welfare reform is meeting Madison Avenue. A number of cities and states are running slick ads to uncover jobs for those trying to move from welfare rolls to mainstream employment.
- Philadelphia has the biggest ad campaign yet -- a $1.3 million effort which has located about 3,700 jobs, paying an average of $6.88 an hour.
- Nashville plans a $500,000 ad campaign this fall, while Milwaukee has spent about $150,000 on TV, radio and print ads.
- Delaware is spending $200,000 on ads to energize welfare recipients before their time limit for benefits expires.
- Florida will spend $300,000 to market welfare recipients to prospective employers.
Ads have also been used in the past year in California and Texas.

Sunrise Ski Resort
How about checking out the Scenic Lift Rides? You hop on a ski lift seat and soar to an elevation of 10,700 feet above the Blue Spruce trees. The views are breathtaking on the way up and at the top. From the top of the Sunrise Peak, you have views of the White Mountains in all directions. The Eagles Nest Cafe is at the top for you to grab a bite to eat or have a cool beverage. The lift is opened Thursday-Monday from 10am to 4pm. It was $18 for my trip up the mountain and totally worth every penny.
Other things to do at Sunrise in the summer are zip line tours, downhill mountain biking, nature hikes, tubing slide, airbag jump, archery course, disc golf, Sunrise Lake, culinary workshops, horseback tours, and fly fishing clinics. The Sunrise Park Resort is a fun place to go in the winter and summer too.

Butterfly Lodge Museum
James was a talented writer, grew up in New York, and made his way to Greer as a middle-aged man. He came from a wealthy family and left in 1877 by way of a steamboat to Montana. He loved the area and the Blackfoot Indians who lived on the land. There he became a hunting guide, trapper and an advocate for Indian rights. In 1879, he married a Blackfoot maiden, Natahki, and together they had a son, Lone Wolf. After his mother died in 1903, Lone Wolf who was raised with his Mother's people, moved to the southwest due to health problems. He ended up at the Grand Canyon as a wrangler/guide and did many paintings while working there. He later went to the Art Students' League School in Los Angeles and the Chicago Art Institute. All of his paintings are adorned with his signature wolf-head. Along with the almost 500 paintings, Lone Wolf has bronze sculptures in museums as well.
Lone Wolf was a talented artist and his father, James, was an equally talented writer. He wrote about 37 books before he died 1947, just before turning 88. His books were written for children and some for adults. They had the adventure in American West theme which reflected his life.
The Butterfly Lodge Museum is inside a log cabin where you will find many artifacts, pictures, paintings, and items from the time when James made this place his home. There is a gift shop in the back where you can find an array of interesting items. Also on the grounds where the museum is located is the Applewhite Events Pavilion where many different events and activities are held, where money is raised for the museum and any ongoing costs or maintenance.
|I got this framed photo at the gift shop. It is titled "Lone Wolf" and looks great in my room.

If you mean activation problems, if you have a retail copy, you may need to activate online again. Failing that, you'll need to do a phone activation.

438 Days is the miraculous account of the man who survived alone and adrift at sea longer than anyone in recorded history - as told to journalist Jonathan Franklin in dozens of exclusive interviews.
On November 17, 2012, Salvador Alvarenga left the coast of Mexico for a two-day fishing trip. A vicious storm killed his engine, and the current dragged his boat out to sea. The storm picked up and blasted him west. When he washed ashore on January 29, 2014, he had arrived in the Marshall Islands, 9,000 miles away - equivalent to traveling from New York to Moscow round trip.
For 14 months, Alvarenga survived constant shark attacks. He learned to catch fish with his bare hands. He built a fish net from a pair of empty plastic bottles. Taking apart the outboard motor, he fashioned a huge fishhook. Using fish vertebrae as needles, he stitched together his own clothes.
He considered suicide on multiple occasions - including offering himself up to a pack of sharks. But Alvarenga never failed to invent an alternative reality. He imagined a method of survival that kept his body and mind intact long enough for the Pacific Ocean to toss him up on a remote, palm-studded island, where he was saved by a local couple living alone in their own Pacific Island paradise.
Based on dozens of hours of interviews with Alvarenga and interviews with his colleagues, search and rescue officials, the medical team that saved his life, and the remote islanders who nursed him back to health, this is an epic tale of survival, an all-true version of the fictional Life of Pi. 438 Days is a study of the resilience, will, ingenuity, and determination required for one man to survive 14 months lost at sea.
"Narrator George Newbern does an excellent job delivering the story of Alvarenga's struggle... Newbern's consistent pace and varied tone keep the compelling story going, communicating the harrowing aspects of the journey as well as Alvarenga's inspirational will to survive his extended ordeal at sea."

|A revision to ISO 9001 is now in Draft International stage.
VP Operations, Oxebridge Quality Resources
The next revision of ISO 9001 is due in 2015, and the standard is being anticipated with more controversy than any previous edition. The document, now in its Draft International Standard (DIS) stage, is nearly a done deal, with very few changes likely before it progresses to its final release.
Despite some online bluster, the changes are not as significant as some would have you believe. Using simple word count comparison against the current 2008 version, we find that 74% of the changed wording was merely rephrasing of existing requirements, without any new requirements; of the remainder, 20% are new requirements mandated by ISO bureaucrats, and 6% is new wording introduced by TC 176. That is good news for those who don't want to spend a lot of money "updating," but bad news for anyone expecting ISO 9001 to evolve into a more modern, 21st century standard.
Annex SL
The mandated text comes by way of a document called "The Consolidated Supplement," an internal ISO procedure which defines all the requirements on how ISO Technical Committees (TCs) must operate. It is published by the ISO Technical Management Board (TMB), the bureaucratic body that oversees all TC activities. Normally, only TCs can produce ISO standards, since TCs are comprised of delegates assigned from ISO member nations; but in 2009, the TMB attempted to develop ISO Guide 83 to define a common "high level structure" for all ISO management system standards, such as 9001, 14001, etc. Guide 83 never made it out of draft, so the TMB then took the extraordinary – and somewhat clandestine – step of inserting Guide 83's language into the mandatory internal Consolidated Supplement procedure, as "Annex SL". This allowed the TMB to force the former Guide 83 rules on the TCs without the consensus of their delegates.
TC 176 was thus required to adopt the structure and language of Annex SL without being able to alter it. So a great deal of time was spent re-shuffling ISO 9001 clauses to align to the new Annex SL numbering scheme. Combined with pressure by ISO to publish by 2015, and a remarkably light schedule of physical meetings, there was simply was no time for TC 176 to move ISO 9001 to consider any newer best practices or modern advances in quality management.
This article is related to the Whitepaper: ISO 9001-2000 Standards: Automating Quality Systems To get the full details, please download your free copy.
Risk-Based Thinking
Much speculation has been had regarding the inclusion of "risk" in 9001. Contrary to TC 176 spin, the inclusion of risk did not come from user demand. Not only did risk rank fifth on a survey of ISO 9001 users' wishes, Annex SL had been mandated on TC 176 nearly a year before the User Survey was completed.
Lacking risk management professionals in its ranks, TC 176 was stuck interpreting a complex field of study on an impossibly compressed schedule. A concept called "risk based thinking" was developed which would simultaneously attempt to resolve problems with the old preventive action language, while satisfying the TMB mandate to include risk. The problem is that "risk based thinking" doesn't exist in any known risk management discipline, has never appeared in any professional risk body of knowledge, and was invented entirely out of thin air by TC 176. As a result, the risk requirements don't actually require anything: there are no requirements for records, procedures, processes or resources. It even specifically says it is not risk management. You need merely "think" about risk, and you're done. One of the members of ISO's own TC on risk management said that risk-based thinking is equivalent to "selling bottles of sound."
The other controversial aspect is that of "positive risk," which ISO expects organizations to manage in the same way as negative risk. The idea of "positive risk" has polarized the risk management profession, and has been rejected by product safety professionals and those in finance and insurance. But nevertheless ISO fell in with the "positive risk" camp, and so it's part of ISO 9001 now.
Other Changes
The other significant changes are:
- Context of the organization – a welcome change in that it will force companies to understand themselves before understanding how to apply ISO 9001.
- Human factors – while not expressly labeled as such, the new language under work environment requires the company to manage "social and psychological" factors in the workplace. This is a disaster waiting to happen, as it requires quality professionals and auditors to become overnight psychologists.
- Change control – finally, ISO 9001 adds language on ensuring changes to processes are done in a controlled manner.
- Documented information – inexplicably, TC 176 has merged "documents" with "records" and lumped them together as "documented information." Now it's no longer clear where ISO 9001 requires a document or a record, nor what control rules apply to which. Despite some spin coming from TC 176, no, the document control rules still favor a system of printed binders and signatures. You will struggle to comply if you have moved to modern tools like wikis, SharePoint or Confluence.
- Organizational knowledge – a new requirement that, like risk based thinking, doesn't actually say anything, and since "knowledge" isn't defined, it's not at all clear what TC 176 wants here.
- Less documentation – despite what some are saying, TC 176 did not do away with documentation, they just use different wording. Instead of explicitly calling for procedures, they now use the word "define" a lot, leading to the question of how do you "define" something without writing it down? As before, TC 176 has confused being generic with being ambiguous.
What's missing:
- It's still overwhelmingly hardware biased – service providers will continue to be alienated by ISO 9001, and probably go off to pursue CMMI or other standards instead. TC 176 has proven itself incapable of solving this problem, and just needs to split the standard already.
- No linking of processes and objectives – the standard still hasn't firmly tied quality objectives to processes, and the process approach will still be confusing to people. A missed opportunity.
- Flexible design model. ISO 9001 still mandates a design and development model which contradicts many modern models, such as Agile. It's stuck in 1950.
The good news is that because the new standard is filled with vague, half-baked ideas subject to interpretation, you get to interpret it. Under 9001:2015, "tailoring" is the critical key to survival.
Rather than write an inane Quality Manual, companies should create a policy document which defines its interpretation of each of the 9001 requirements, clause by clause. These can be single-sentence policies that would then point to any supporting procedures. It sounds like the traditional Quality Manual, but would look entirely different. This document would then be useful for training and – most of all – providing to third party assessors.
These policy statements should then be aligned with the company's processes, so that each process falls subject to at least one such statement (if not many.) Then, objectives for each process can be developed (at least one per process), which support those policy statements and provide a means of assessing if each process is effective. This might be a good time to get rid of dopey process maps and those horrid Turtles.
Next, companies should defend their interpretation when challenged, specifically by certification body auditors. Unless a Certified Body (CB) auditor can find a nonconformity with the interpretation, and firmly fix it to an actual requirement, they must accept the company's interpretation. In the past companies have sought interpretation guidance from the CBs, which is backwards; they are there to assess your interpretation, not assess their own.
Finally, companies will have to be ready to exercise their rights to appeal, complain and escalate complaints when the inevitable clash happens with CBs. The CB industry is loath to pay for any training of their auditors, and they are unlikely to start now, especially regarding the complex discipline of risk management. Companies will have to go back and point to their interpretation document, and defend it when challenged. More than ever, this means companies will need to read ISO 17021 and ISO 19011, the rules for auditors, and be ready to use those rules to defend themselves.
The end result will be more organic quality management systems, properly aligned to each organization's processes, and more effectively measuring those processes to ensure the final product or service is outstanding. But all of this will come despite ISO 9001, not because of it, and relies on taking advantage of the deeply flawed, vague language that TC 176 has released on the world.
Silver lining, and all that.

In the event you smoke, stop. By spending hard-earned funds on whitening products and after that smoking, you happen to be just throwing your hard earned money out your window. Your entire efforts is going to be useless.
A natural way which has been proven to help whiten teeth is to try using a blend of half baking soda and half salt. You may put it to use for your toothbrush and brush your teeth the way you would should you be using regular toothpaste. Make sure you usually do not swallow.
Because most whitening teeth gels are extremely powerful, simply a dentist may give these to you. Teeth bleaching gel is utilized together with laser whitening and merely the laser equipment will activate it. It is a more costly method than the others, but lasts longer and works quicker.
Crest Whitestrips
You will end up disappointed with all the teeth whitening results in case your teeth are gray. Whitening works best with yellow or brown discoloration. It may take several treatments to get severely stained teeth as white since they once were.
Were you aware that you can easily damage your teeth permanently if you use the wrong teeth whitening methods? This needs to be scary news if you have not gotten expert advice previously and they are currently whitening your teeth. Look at the advice in the following paragraphs to actually are employing the appropriate methods.

Crazy! The kids have dental appointments tomorrow afternoon and start AWANA tomorrow night. I will be attending a wake while they are there as my little cousin was killed last week. Thursday is the funeral. Our anniversary is next week, it also happens to be my husband's birthday, so Friday we are going to the Apple store to get us each new Macbook Pros and then I'm getting him PS3 and Rock Band (FINALLY!!!) as a surprise. Hopefully I will have a big enough bonus that I can get my Wii finally too...
Then after the kids get out of school we are taking them bowling. Sunday is Mom's birthday so I am taking her to lunch and to see Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs on Saturday. I am also going refrigerator and mattress shopping (for the kids). There's a PPV boxing match on Saturday night and I'm partially sure DH wants to purchase it and have fight party... that's still up in the air... so if that's a 'go' then I will be spending most of Saturday evening cleaning and cooking finger foods. Sunday is church, Sunday dinner, and hair styling day. Oh yes, and in between all of that I am working night shift this week and I have two onsite lab/exams for school. YIKES.

For Parents & Riders
1. NEVER let your child who rides a 50cc, 65cc or 85cc on the track with bigger bikes (No matter how good you think they are).
2. If you are a NOVICE rider on a 125cc, 250cc or 450cc – NEVER ride a track at the same time as faster, more experienced A & B level riders.
3. DEMAND that your local track owner split practices as follows:
– A & B Big Bike Riders 15-20 Minutes
– C&D (Novice) Big Bike Riders 15-20 Minutes
– Supermini & advanced 85 cc Riders 15-20 Minutes
– 65cc & 85cc riders 15-20 Minutes
– 50cc Riders 15-20 Minutes (if no kids track is available)
4. ENCOURAGE your local track owners to hire flaggers for every practice they hold. Even if this costs you an extra $ 10.00 per day (money well spent).
5. NEVER ride a dusty track. If your vision is impaired so is the vision of all of the other riders. Ask the track supervisor to water the track.
6. PARTICIPATE don't spectate. If you are not riding, volunteer to flag. Every extra set of eyes on the track protects other riders.
7. NEVER ride over your head. You can't become a better rider in 1 day. Riding beyond your skill level only endangers you and others around you.
8. SAFETY GEAR is crucial. At a minimum you should always have a good helmet, goggles, boots, knee pads and gloves. If you can afford it invest in a Snell approved helmet and a neck brace. A good set of knee braces will help prevent ACL injuries before they happen.
9. GET INVOLVED! If you ride or your kids ride it only benefits you to get involved. Don't be afraid to tell someone else to get their kids off the track if there are bigger bikes out there. If the track has issues tell the track owner, ASAP. If they don't like it, too bad! One day they will thank you for it.
10. PRINT this list and hand it out to other riders & parents at the track. It will be your good deed for the day. Who knows, you might prevent an accident before it happens.

Infections Associated With Heater-Cooler Devices A recent Food and Drug Administration (FDA) safety announcement discusses reports of infections associated with heater-cooler devices used during medical and surgical procedures.
Patient heater-cooler devices have been associated with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections, primarily in patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgical procedures. Nontuberculous mycobacteria can cause pulmonary disease resembling tuberculosis.
The heater-cooler devices in question are used during cardiothoracic surgeries and other medical and surgical procedures to warm or cool a patient to optimize medical care and improve outcomes. The devices provide temperature-controlled water to external heat exchangers or warming/cooling blankets through closed circuits.
The water in the circuits does not come into direct contact with the patient, but there is the potential for contaminated water to enter other parts of the device or transmit bacteria through the air (aerosolize) through the device's exhaust vent into the environment and to the patient, the FDA explains.
NTM organisms are found in soil and water, including tap water. Typically, they are not harmful, but may cause infections in very ill patients or in individuals with compromised immune systems.
Between January 2010 and August 2015, the FDA received 32 medical device reports (MDRs) of patient infections associated with heater-cooler devices or bacterial heater-cooler device contamination, with 25 reports in 2015. Some reports describe NTM infections related to cardiothoracic surgeries, but other reports do not specify the procedure the patient was undergoing.
Eight reports were related to three events describing patient infections occurring in health care facilities in the U.S. The remaining 24 reports involved facilities outside the United States, most of these in Western Europe.
The FDA said some patients presented with infections several months to years
The FDA said some patients presented with infections several months to years after their surgical procedures. Half of the 32 reports note bacterial contamination of the heater-cooler device without known patient infection. As far as the FDA is aware, no hospital staff have acquired NTM infections from the heater-coolers.
The FDA said it is difficult for a health care facility, health care provider, manufacturer, or patient to recognize NTM infections that may be associated with the use of or exposure to a particular medical device. The FDA is following up the reports with both health care facilities and manufacturers to determine the factors that may have contributed to the infections.
The FDA recommends that hospital strictly adhere to cleaning and disinfection instructions provided by the manufacturer. Tap water should not be used to rinse, fill, refill or top off the heater-cooler water tanks because this may introduce NTM organisms.
Only sterile water or water that has been passed through a filter of less than or equal to 0.22 microns should be used in the tank or for making the ice needed for patient cooling during surgical procedures. In addition, the heater-cooler's vent exhaust should be directed away from the surgical field to mitigate the risk of aerosolizing heater-cooler tank water into the sterile field and exposing the patient.
The FDA said it is actively working with stakeholder groups to better understand the causes and risk factors for transmission of microbial agents associated with these devices and to develop strategies to minimize patient exposure.

English is available as a free class so that people can learn to speak our "official language" properly. I actually think it is a great service to offer free. Many times these classes have native English speakers in them that just want to better their skills.
I do understand your frustration though. Foreign language programs can be quite expensive.
If you are creative and willing to put in a bit of time, you can find many ways to pay for college classes to speak another language. Obviously it will not be as quick as learning another language from Rosetta Stone or a similar company, but it will get the job done AND give you free college credits!
Be sure to check with your employer as well, they are often willing to pay for for all or part of a foreign language program for their employees because it is a huge benefit for them. If they don't have a program in place - Sell it to them!

Eliminate special hand-out deduction to banks

If no savings are realized by the consumer, then banks ought to pay tax on their revenue in this state like most other businesses.

Floral Sleeveless Dress, £24.00, Dorothy Perkins
I love this simple, floral summery dress from Dorothy Perkins. I think what I like most about it is that its sleeveless - the basic straight down shape means it would look absolutely amazing teamed with heels and bracelets piled high on each arm. I really love the vintage pattern as well. For a look thats more suitable for the day, tuck it into a high waisted skirt or shorts especially for summer with some plain pumps. Pink lips with vintage earring studs would also complete the look.
Satin Strappy Platform, £24.99, New Look
These strappy sandles really get me in the mood for the summer. This hot pink shade will brighten up any outfit and would look lovely with a plain white dress. Match your nails to this colour by painting them pink. Wear these with a little black dress for an evening/clubbing look that really stands out with a french pedicure.
Ruffle Bow Back Camisole, £30.00, ASOS
I really love tops that have interesting back detail like this as I think its so refreshing. I think its a much classier approach to showing a little flesh on a night out too, as opposed to flashing your cleavage or legs! This top is majorly cute and looks really good with shorts. This outfit should be kept very simple with pumps for in the day, or heels for the evening. Brush your hair and curl it to one side to really show off the back detail with this dress.
Magali Tailored Pleat Dress in Camel, £21.99, Missguided
I'm really loving all the honey and mustard yellows that we are seeing this summer as I think they are key pieces to your wardrobe - any girl should own something in a nice eye catching shade of yellow! This dress is incredibly vintage with its mid length sleeves and the skinny belt to give it more shape.
Paris Charm Bracelet, £14.00, Accessorize
This gorgeous bracelet will have you dreaming of a romantic summer spent in Paris! If you can't afford to travel to France, get this bracelet instead for a subtle hint of romance to your outfit. Wear it with anything at all, but bright red or blue heels will really be eye catching as they match the bows on this bracelet.

With the wealth of theatre offerings in Chicago it's always hard to pick but we've found you can never go wrong with The House. We've seen three amazing shows here--always with wonderful acting and great production values that draw you in to the story. They are able to transcend their space and budget limitations in surprising ways. We try and take friends and relatives with us whenever we go in order to introduce them to The House. It is a Chicago treasure!
Review from Guidestar
Fresh, dynamic, and riveting...the House Theatre's arrival brought a new vitality to Chicago's live theater scene. Using "old" tools in new ways, with consistently solid delivery in writing, direction, stage design, music, and acting, The House holds audiences in the palms of its hands.
What's more, they share a dedication to serve the community. Not just by key members of the company, but by everyone involved, including those who volunteer. By reaching out to inner city youth and extending cost-free opportunities to experience live theater, some for the first time, they provide kids with a view into new possibilities. These shows are always followed with in-depth discussions to further include the children in gaining deeper understandings of the art of story telling through music, acting, film, and puppetry. Subject matter of these shows and the discussions that ensue are often easily tied to participants' own lives, thus connecting them on the deepest possible level.
It is an honor to be a part of this theater company as a regular attendee of their shows and as a part-time volunteer.
Review from Guidestar
My family has been a fan of The House Theater since it's inception. Never have I seen a more passionate, energetic, devoted and talented group of people. From the people at the box office, set designers, lighting technicians, costume designers, choreographers to the actors- these people share a vision and a dream. They are a family. And their family has welcomed my family into their theater for a decade. My children cut their teeth on plays by the House Theater. They, in turn, have brought their friends to every play. We regularly have groups of 20 to 40 people coming to every House show with us and they always ask one question- "when is the next show". This is the best kind of theatre- accessibile and exceptional.

Recent reports have confirmed that more and more people are now confused about PPI or Payment Protection Insurance and mis-sold PPI. Although the issue has been the topic in advertisements of claims management policies, a lot of people do not still fully understand what these are. This confusion has led to numerous unsuccessful compensation claims.
Payment Protection Insurance is offered with lending products such as catalogue credit purchases, mortgages, loans, and credit or store cards. This covers up to 12 months payment should the borrowers are unable to make payments due to sickness and other reasons.
PPI is a valuable type of insurance. However, several banks and lending companies made billions of pounds by misrepresenting to borrowers.
PPI is considered mis-sold when (1) it was added to the lending product without informing the borrower (2) when banks or lending companies made the borrower believed that PPI is not optional and that getting it can speed up the process of getting a loan (3) the terms and conditions were not fully explained to the borrower.
Also, (4) the borrower was unemployed or self-employed when they were sold PPI and (5) the borrower was medically exempted from the policy at the time of its sale.
