Simply Healthy | New Year Resolution: Get more sleep
How much sleep do we need?
One of the best gifts you can give yourself is an extra hour of sleep. Not only is it free, but just one extra hour of shut-eye can really make the next day better.
We live in a busy, busy world, and most of us can sometimes miss out on a few hours of good, uninterrupted slumber.
Check out Twinkle's Sleep well. Feel better downloadable graphic.
How much sleep do we need?
Really, how much sleep you need depends on your age and the state of your health. Make sure as an adult you get at least eight hours to ensure that you are well-rested.
Children and teens need more sleep to keep them alert and ready for school each day. According to the National Sleep Foundation, teens need 8 1/2-9 hours of sleep a night and children under 10 need at least 10-11.
If you do have kids, you can feel good knowing when you corral them up for that earlier bedtime that you are doing the right thing. You should also put away any electronic devices that might distract them, too.
What are some benefits of sleep?
Not only does getting the right amount of sleep help you rejuvenate from the day, it can also take some stress off your cardiovascular system. Getting your allotted sleep hours helps reduce levels of stress and inflammation in your body, lowering your risk for strokes or heart disease.
Adequate sleep is also great for your memory and overall brain health. So put on your thinking cap and catch some shut-eye so your brain is capable of better processing new experiences and knowledge, and increasing its ability to understand and retain new information.
Make your bed the place to be
One of the best ways to get a good night's sleep is to invest in a quality mattress. It's integral in helping you get comfortable, enough to drift slowly off into a dream each night and rest peacefully.
What if you think you have a sleep disorder?
50-70 million Americans have a sleep disorder, according to the Center for Disease Control, so it's good to keep yourself in check. If you think you aren't resting well, talk to your doctor before taking things into your own hands. A professional opinion could help you solve the dilemma.
What are some things I can do to sleep better?
Eat a healthier diet and don't eat within three hours of bedtime so your food as plenty of time to digest.
Set a sleep and wake schedule. Heading to bed at the same time each night and waking up at the same time each day can help you create a sleep rhythm.
Don't drink that last cup of coffee! Even though you might love it, or think you even need it, it can prevent you from resting when you are ready to hit the hay.
Finally, create a "winding down" time about an hour before your bedtime. Read, meditate, take a warm bath or something else relaxing to bring some closure to the end of the day.
Whatever it is you decide to do, embrace your dreams and give yourself the gift of sweet slumber for a healthier, stronger you.

Press regulation 'coming to a head'
9:13am Tuesday 8th October 2013 in National News © Press Association 2013
A decision on newspaper industry proposals for a new system of press regulation is likely to be announced later today, according to Government sources.
Reports that the plans were rejected yesterday are "just not true" and the sub-committee assessing the recommendations is "looking for a grown-up solution", they added.
It comes as Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander, who sits on the group, said the battle over press regulation is "coming to a head".
Discussions will continue today to finalise the decision, which could be made public ahead of a Privy Council session tomorrow that is expected to "nod it through".
"A decision has not been taken yet on the press charter," the source said. "It's speculation. It's likely that a decision on the the press charter will be taken later today."
Cross-party proposals for regulating the press could go before the Privy Council tomorrow but that is just a "slim possibility", the source said.
Mr Alexander told BBC Breakfast: "It is coming to a head now and I am the co-chair of the committee of the Privy Council that is considering this matter.
"We are still considering the final details of our recommendation to the Privy Council. There is a proper due process around this and, if you don't mind, I am going to stick to that due process.
"Our decision will be made public once it is made and will go to the Privy Council in the normal way.
"I am not going to comment in any way beyond that."
Asked if there was a timetable, he said: "The Privy Council meets tomorrow, we had a meeting of our committee yesterday. There are a few remaining Is to be dotted and Ts to be crossed following that discussion, so no final decision has been made.
"But even when it is, we have a proper due process to follow and that doesn't include sharing our deliberations with you."

(Removal of the Esophagus)
This is surgery to remove part or all of the esophagus. The esophagus is the tube that runs from the mouth to the stomach.
Reasons for Procedure
Esophagectomy may be used to treat:
- Esophageal cancer
- Benign tumors and cysts of the esophagus
- Other esophageal abnormalities such as achalasia or Barrett esophagus
- Severe trauma
Esophageal Cancer
Possible Complications
If you are planning to have esophagectomy, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
- Bleeding
- Blood clots
- Infection
- Soreness in throat
- Adverse reaction to the anesthesia
- Leaks from the internal suture line
- Heart attack
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
- Pre-existing heart or lung conditions
- Increased age
- Obesity
- Smoking
- Diabetes
- Excessive alcohol intake
Be sure to discuss these risks with your doctor before the procedure.
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may do the following:
- Physical exam
- Blood and urine tests
- Chest x-ray
- Ultrasound
- CT scan
- MRI scan
- Upper endoscopy
- Place a feeding tube into your small intestine—may be done during the esophagectomy
Leading up to your procedure:
Talk to your doctor about your medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen
- Blood thinners
- Anti-platelet medications
- Arrange for someone to drive you home from the hospital and to help you at home.
- Eat a light meal the night before. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
Your doctor may ask you to:
- Use an enema to clear your intestines
- Follow a special diet.
- Take antibiotics or other medications.
- Shower using antibacterial soap the night before the surgery.
General anesthesia will be used. It will block any pain and keep you asleep through the surgery. A tube will be placed in your windpipe to help you breathe.
Description of the Procedure
Depending on the area that needs to be removed, the doctor will make an incision in the neck or abdomen using one of these techniques:
- An open procedure using one large incision—The diseased area will be located and removed.
- A robot-assisted procedure that uses several small incisions—A tiny camera and small surgical instruments will be inserted through the incisions. Looking at the esophagus on a monitor, the doctor will locate and remove the diseased area.
A replacement esophagus will be formed with part of the stomach or large intestine. The remainder of the esophagus will be attached to this new esophagus. In some cases, lymph nodes in the area will also be removed. One or more chest tubes will be placed to drain fluids. Lastly, the incisions will be closed with stitches or staples.
How Much Will It Hurt?
You will feel pain as the anesthesia wears off. Ask your doctor about medication to help with the pain.
Average Hospital Stay
This procedure is done in a hospital setting. The usual length of stay is 1-2 weeks. Your doctor may choose to keep you longer if complications arise.
Post-procedure Care
You will not be able to eat or drink anything during the first week after surgery. You will get nutrition through a feeding tube. Within 7-14 days, you will have a swallowing test to check for leaks. If there are no leaks, your diet will gradually progress from clear liquids to soft, solid meals. You will probably be able to return to a normal diet after about a month. Your stomach may be smaller, so you will need to eat smaller portions.
You will also need to do deep breathing exercises. You may be given an incentive spirometer. This is a device to help you breath deeply.
Other guidelines include:
- Your doctor will encourage you to walk every day.
- Avoid heavy lifting for 6-8 weeks.
- Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, call your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or any discharge from the incision site
- Nausea and/or vomiting that you cannot control with the medications you were given after surgery, or which persist for more than two days after discharge from the hospital
- Pain that you cannot control with the medications you have been given
- Cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain
- Constipation or diarrhea
- Pain and/or swelling in your feet, calves, or legs
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Qualified indorsement (endorsement)
An indorsement — the placement of a signature on the back of a negotiable instrument — coupled with an additional phrase, e.g. "without recourse" or "for deposit only," limiting the liability of the indorser (signer) in the event the instrument is dishonored. A qualified indorsement makes it more difficult for a thief or embezzler to cash an instrument. Also spelled qualified endorsement.
Illustrative caselaw
See, e.g. White v. Miners' National Bank, 102 U.S. 658, 662 (1880).

Sleep essential for healthy living: Get your 7 hours a night
By Sheryl M. Ness, R.N.
5 comments posted
Did you get seven hours of sleep last night? Did you know that adults need 7-9 hours of sleep to stay healthy every night? Most people get far less than this on average, and the lack of sleep can take a toll on your body and mind.
As a cancer survivor, getting enough sleep can help your body respond better to treatment and may speed your recovery. It may also help you stay well if you're exposed to other viruses, such as colds and the flu.
Researchers have discovered that during sleep, your immune system releases proteins called cytokines which can help you deal with stress, fight infections and decrease inflammation in the body. When you don't get enough sleep, these protective proteins and other important infection-fighting cells are reduced.
Your body needs adequate sleep to fight infections and inflammation. Long-term lack of sleep can not only put you at risk for a weaker immune system, but can also increase your risk for other chronic conditions such as obesity, diabetes and heart disease.
Lack of sleep can also affect your mind. Sleep helps you rest your mind and prepare for a new day of activity, memories and experiences. If you're not able to sleep well on a regular basis, you may find that you have trouble with memory and concentration. You may also have more anxiety and low emotions.
So, it's important for both your body and your mind to get your zzz's. Mayo Clinic experts recommend 7 steps to healthy sleep, which include:
- Be consistent with your sleep schedule
- Pay attention to what you eat and drink before bedtime
- Create a bedtime routine
- Be comfortable for sleeping
- Limit napping during the day
- Get some physical activity every day
- Manage your stress

I have had many other JS wigs and while they've never been my favorite I never took issue with the quality; just some of the styles didn't thrill me. This wig is supposedly a new style, but the quality is terrible. The wefts were very far apart, it was thin, the hair fiber was so tangled there was no saving it. The top was flat with all the permatease showing through (and usually permatease does not bother me). Did not look wavy at all, just ratty. Do not buy!

Works as designed for me. Nice to have it. Note I am installed in the default location for VS2010. this thing made me want to punch my monitor Great to have this fix Please let us know when this works, as per the channel9 video when the VS install directory is not drive C. (Boot [C] is a relatively small SSD, installs are in D, data is in E) As you might see in the other reviews, some like some hate. unworthy It works perfectly. I had to reinstall this extension to be able to edit CSS files after installing security updates on SP1. Unfortunately, I had to uninstall this. After installing I could no longer edit CSS files in Visual Studio getting the same "unspecified error" that others are mentioning. Once I uninstalled, I could edit CSS files again. Do NOT use this. After installing it, Visual Studio lost all ability to recognize CSS files, let alone have intellisense function. Uninstalling and trying to fix Visual Studio was a nightmare. Bad, bad, BAD extension. It works perfectly. Do NOT install this! I had terrible luck with this, as my VS installation is on a different drive. The thing would not detect that I had installed Service pack 1 If you don't have your VS 2010 installed in the default directory, this tool will waste your time. Thanks will be useful for my web projects! Works amazing, thanks guys. Very useful tool. I used it for two days, then happened an windows update, and the VS2010 instead of opening the css file, said:"Operation could not be completed". I obviously thought , because of the extension. There is a (new) option: Reinstall, ad after it I can use it again.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A fire broke out Friday night at 57 Heaven, temporarily closing the eastbound and westbound lanes of Atlantic Boulevard between Acme and Bowlan.
The Jacksonville Fire Rescue Department says the call came in about 8:35 p.m.
About 50 firefighters responded to the fire, according to Jacksonville Fire Chief Martin Senterfitt.
There were about 30 patrons inside at the time the fire broke out. They reported smelling smoke and then immediately evacuated.
"I was at the front door when we saw smoke. We tried fire extinguishers, but then the flames started rolling on," said 57 Heaven owner Darrell Leake.
Leake believes the fire may have been caused by a neon sign shorting out.
No one was injured.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Comments about L SPACE OASIS PONCHO:
so one great thing is that this iteam looks exactly like it does in the picure. The color and the cut are exactly the same. I do however think that it as a little too short. I know this a typical cover up for beach wear and things, but i would not feel comfortable going in from the pool into a hotel restaurant and eating. Also, the fbric doesnt breath very well so if it is hot outside, the combination of the black color and the unbreathable fabric, i am pretty sure you will be sweating. It is super soft and adorable, but these are just some things to think about.

The Official Online RBS 6 Nations Store is open. The store has everything you need to get behind your team during the RBS 6 Nations, plus the store is now fully stocked with a much wider range of rugby merchandise.
But despite their thumping 33-6 win over Australia, Saint-Andre is refusing to take this weekend's opponents, Argentina, lightly after the Pumas' defeat to RBS 6 Nations Grand Slam champions Wales 26-12 and refused to focus on any individuals.
"The Argentines were pretty impressive in Cardiff,'' said Saint-Andre who has made just one change to his side with
Yoann Maestri returning to the second row in place of Jocelino Suta.
"They gave the Welsh a rugby lesson in the second half. They scored two textbook tries.
"It's down to us to play to our strengths, to show the same intensity and speed as we did last week. We did a lot of work on our reactivity, our speed, in Tuesday's training session, and we were more than pleasantly surprised.
"We went for continuity, we don't have much time (to prepare matches). We don't want to change the spine of the team for this crucial match. We tried to keep the same balance.
"You shouldn't put too much pressure on the fly-half position. I wanted to keep Michalak in the team. He played very well last week."

U.S. President Barack Obama said Saturday that the United States "should take military action against Syrian targets" over its alleged use of chemical weapons, but added that he will seek congressional authorization for the move.
In a televised address from the White House Rose Garden, the president appealed for members of Congress to consider their responsibilities and values in debating U.S. military action over Syria's alleged chemical weapons use. Here are the latest developments:
-- President Barack Obama has authority to act without Congress -- even if it rejects his request for authorization to use military force in Syria, a senior administration official told CNN on Saturday. The official was expanding on what the president said in his Rose Garden statement: "... while I believe I have the authority to carry out this military action without specific congressional authorization, I know that the country will be stronger if we take this course, and our actions will be even more effective."
-- The Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Tuesday will begin a debate on the authorization of the use of military force in Syria, committee Chairman Robert Menendez, D-New Jersey, said in a statement Saturday.
-- President Barack Obama sent to the heads of the House and Senate a letter Saturday with draft legislation that would authorize use of the U.S. military "in connection with the conflict in Syria." This comes after Obama said he would seek congressional approval for U.S. military action in Syria over the alleged use of chemical weapons.
-- Sen. Ted Cruz, the Texas Republican who has been a critic of Obama administration policies, said Saturday he is "very glad" the president is seeking congressional authorization for any use of force in Syria, but is troubled by the "justifications the Obama administration has put forth so far."
-- U.S. President Barack Obama and French President Francois Hollande chatted in a phone call Saturday about Syria, with the two leaders agreeing that "the international community must deliver a resolute message" to the Bashar al-Assad government and "others who would consider using chemical weapons."
-- U.S. intelligence is showing Syrian army units dispersed into defensive positions in recent days and the belief is that posture could continue for some days, a senior Defense Department official said.
-- The chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff said there will be "appropriate targeting options" in Syria and the military is using the latest intelligence to refine its targeting, said Col. Edward Thomas, spokesman for chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey.
-- President Barack Obama is turning to Congress to approve military action against Syria because such a mission has not received enough support across the world and in the United States, influential Russian lawmaker Alexei Pushkov said in a Twitter message Saturday.
-- U.N. chemical weapons inspectors could take as long as three weeks to analyze evidence from the sites of alleged Syrian chemical weapons attacks, according to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. Nine of the 12 inspectors are part of the group. An independent chemical weapons expert, however, suggested the results may require as little as a week.
-- Several moderate Democratic senators made a strong case to administration officials on Friday that Obama needs congressional authorization for military action against Syria, a Republican senator told CNN on Saturday. The senator was on a Friday call with members of the Senate's foreign relations and armed services committees.
-- Sen. Saxby Chambliss, top Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, said Saturday he appreciates Obama's decision to seek congressional approval but that he should have demanded that Congress return immediately to debate the issue.
-- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Saturday military action in response to Assad's use of chemical weapons -- limited in scope and duration and without boots on the ground -- is in America's national security interest and furthers regional stability and global security.
-- Sens. John McCain, R-Arizona, and Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, said Saturday they cannot support isolated military strikes in Syria that are not part of a strategy to remove President Bashar al-Assad from power and bring an end to the conflict. Anything less would be an inadequate response to crimes against humanity and send the wrong signal to America's friends and allies, they said.
-- Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, said Saturday he is "encouraged President Obama now says he will fulfill his constitutional obligation to seek authorization for any potential military action in Syria."
-- "If the Syrian regime thinks they'll gain by any delay if the U.S. takes military action in the future, they'd be sorely mistaken," a U.S. defense official said Saturday, adding the American military is able to deal with the coming days of uncertainty about a strike.
-- Secretary of State John Kerry spoke with the Syrian opposition leader and the Saudi foreign minister to underscore President Barack Obama's commitment to holding the Syrian regime accountable for last week's chemical weapons attack, a senior State Department official said Saturday.
-- It was around 7 p.m. Friday night that Obama came to his decision to seek congressional approval, senior administration officials said Saturday. He was wrestling with the decision all week, and there was a debate within the president's senior advisers after his decision, the officials said.
-- Sen. Robert Menendez, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Saturday he will work with Senate leaders "as expeditiously as possible" to authorize use of military force against Syria. "We say what we mean, we mean what we say, and we don't look away when undeniable war crimes are committed," the New Jersey Democrat said.
-- Iranian lawmakers arrived in Damascus on Saturday "as a sign of solidarity with the Syrian government," Iran's state-run news agency IRNA reported.
-- Sen. Carl Levin, D-Michigan and the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said Saturday that Obama "wisely chose" to seek congressional support for military action against Syria. Congressional authorization, he said, would strengthen Obama's decision to take action.
-- A spokesman for the opposition Syrian National Coalition told CNN's Ivan Watson on Saturday that the opposition group was surprised by Obama's decision to consult Congress before any military action against Syria. Louay Safi said it was a "great disappointment" because they expected action after the U.S. administration blamed the Assad regime for carrying out the chemical weapons attack. "Our fear now is that the lack of action could embolden the regime and they repeat his attacks in a more serious way," Safi said.

Redesigned MIDIbox of the Year (3xMIDIbox LC of Axel)
Posted 23 March 2004 - 02:25
Based on experiences with his sensational 2 x MIDIbox LC design ([url]http://www.midibox.o...;num=1050012551[/url]),
Axel redesigned his MIDIbox completely to a 24 motorfader device
(1 master LC, 2 slave LCs).
Hope that he will find the time to answer all your questions! :-)
Posted 23 March 2004 - 02:45
Axel, I see XLR's and a monitor/mix section - could u pls provide details on this analog i/o...

As I said to you via email yesterday, I am going to build a replica of your sexy box, (if you dont mind).
Its just that it completely fits in with my needs.
I`ll email you again some questions.
Cheers and congrats
Posted 23 March 2004 - 15:13
Did it again, huh?
Manmanman, my MBSeq Design is going under beneath this one! And I thought my design was great, but that´s just astounding! The LCDs are *CEWL*!!! (and pretty expensive I´m sure)
Posted 24 March 2004 - 11:03
Are those vertical ledrings next to the knobs?
Narrower spaces between the faders this time... those look like 25x2 character displays!
Nice work! Modular design looks easy to work on.
Posted 24 March 2004 - 12:02
Posted 24 March 2004 - 14:56
I build this box mainly because i sold my Soundcraft console which served as the housing for my old (now dead...) midibox. As it would have cost about 450 Euros to get the complete panels with all holes etc. made at Schaeffer, i decided to make a hybrid construction with the Schaeffer panels only providing frames for the selfmade modules. Beside the reduced costs this has the advantage that i can modify the modules in a relative easy way in the future (new features, colours, buttons...) without spending money on a new panel.
I used 2x24 displays because i wanted the box to be compact and to reduce the overall costs, i.e. i got the blue displays at autronic-melchers for about 15 Euros each (ok, the other day i got 5 2x40 at ebay for 10 Euro alltogether...). Because of the smaller spacing i couldn´t use ledrings, so i just put 9 leds in a line. I could live completely without them as i´m always looking at the display parameters. If you use any other number of leds than eleven you have to change the ledring patterns, which is a little tricky...
In order to have some analog controls for recording and monitoring, i added a simple passive volume pot (a quite expensive one from Alps) and a talkback unit based on a simple mic preamp from Conrad. There is also a switch to listen to the artists monitoring signal. I have provided some more I/Os for other things, but they are not used right now cause i first have to find a solution for a switching logic. Perhaps someone can help me out on this?
The jog/shuttle control above the cursor buttons is a ShuttleXpress (www.contourdesign.com) which i put completely into the box. Configured to horizontal and vertical zoom it provides a much more comfortable way to navigate in the arrange than the original LC buttons do. It also has 5 free assignable buttons for functions the LC protocol lacks.
I also put a complete midisport 4x4 into the box, so there are only two USB ports going out.
The power supply shown in the pictures has been changed to stronger one. It´s important to provide at least 1.5 A for each set of 8 motorfaders to get a stable function.
If i´d have to build this again i would definitely spent some time to make a complete set of pcb´s integrating buttons, encoders and leds with a simple and solderless connector system. That´s because i spent most of the time getting the vectorboards cabled and connected which is not really the funniest part of the job...
Best regards, Axel
Posted 24 March 2004 - 16:23
Nice one with the intergrated shuttlexpress ;) but where are the 5 buttons it has? Have u rewired them to sumwhere else?
The analog i/o - I'm too planning a much bigger LC and thought an intergrated passive summin mixer would be ideal
Also, the meterbridge u have there - what i/o is that monitoring?
Still stunned...
Posted 25 March 2004 - 13:14
of the 5 possible ShuttleXpress Buttons i use only two at the moment (´mute selected object´ and ´set locators to selection´), they are sitting in one row with the LC controls directly above the transport. Maybe i reconfigure some buttons later, i.e. i never use nudge mode, so this will be a potential free button. More than this it´s one of the advantages of the modular concept that it´s possible to make i.e. a complete new transport section in an easy way.
As i have a small mixer beside the box i don´t need any mixing features in my box, i just want to switch between some inputs (DAW master, cd, monitor, mixer...) by pressing a button. At the moment i think about a high quality rotary switch, i think this would be the best way to maintain the integrity of the analog signal (i once build a switching circuit with FlipFlops and CD 4066 CMOS switches for my guitar setup, but that sounded quite crappy).
The meters are the standard LC meters implemented by Thorsten. They are useful for saying ´Hey, there is a weak/strong signal´, but they have quite a big latency, so they won´t compete with a K-System Meter... ;). Despite of this they are looking really cool providing a touch of a real mixing console...

Only a question: From wich material are the 'selfmade' modules? And, how do you get that clean fader slots in them?
Thanks in advance
Posted 29 March 2004 - 15:30
the modules are made of a material called `Hartschaumplatte`, which is very easy to work with, i.e. you can make the fader slots with a cutting knife. The grafics are printed with an ink-jet using HQ foto paper, cutted out and glued to the base material. The problem is to get the button holes into the paper. I´ve done this using a stand drill, but that´s definitely not the ultimate solution...
Maybe i will make some aluminum modules with professional printing in the future...

Good question! I'm about to start looking into that myself.where in the US can I find this material Smash?
I know budget robotics http://www.budgetrobotics.com sells 12" x 12" sheets of it, but I'm sure it can be found cheaper.
I'm wondering if it's a hardware store item.
If you dig any up let me know please!
Posted 11 May 2004 - 02:42
im not making anything so big but would like to include
jog shuttle controlers is the one inyour box multi function
Posted 01 June 2004 - 19:25
I think it's now possible to use somthing else then the Digidesign consoles, this one is more beautiful then the Digi.
SO, if it's possible can you mail or post the schematic (block) of the unit?
Posted 05 June 2004 - 20:42
You put in a midisport, so is this that you use for every core mudule a midi port, or is the chain of cores connected to 1 midi i/o?
Is it even possible to use 1 midi i/o for each core?
Less latency?
Posted 05 June 2004 - 22:32
Addendum: MIDIbox LC is an exception, because the host application (Logic/Cubase/etc...) requires to connect each core to a seperate MIDI IO!
Note that this limitation is only valid for the Logic Control or Mackie Control emulation --- with a common MIDIbox you can chain the modules ("MIDIbox Link")
Best Regards, Thorsten.

If a stranger approaches you with an offer that's too good to be true, it probably is, say police, who warn Wednesday of a citywide rise in distraction-style crimes.
So far in October, 13 incidents have been reported and police believe the same group of transient thieves is responsible. Roughly 90 incidents have been reported since May, and police fear there may be additional victims who have not reported these crimes.
Typically, the thieves — both men and women — victimize elderly people who are alone and vulnerable. The thieves approach them about jewelry, either to give it as a gift or to offer it for sale at a substantially reduced price. Victims' jewelry is often switched or removed without them knowing. Victims have also purchased jewelry that is stamped 14- or 18-karat, only to find out later it is costume jewelry.
Of further concern to police is that in some recent incidents, victims who were not interested, or had resisted, were assaulted and robbed.
Examples include:
- On Sept. 27, a 57-year-old man was walking through a Mill Woods mall parking lot when he was approached by a man selling gold jewelry. When the victim declined, he was allegedly robbed of his wallet at knifepoint by the man, who took off in a vehicle.
- On Oct. 3, a 35-year-old man was approached by a man and woman in a car while at a gas station on Mill Woods Road. The couple, who had a small child seated in their car, were reportedly selling gold jewelry to raise money to travel from Vancouver to Montreal. The victim allegedly purchased several gold necklaces and gold rings from the couple only to discover later they were fakes.
- On Oct. 7, a 79-year-old woman was working in her yard in the area of 114th Street and 134th Avenue when she was waved over by a couple in a car. The couple allegedly bound the victim's hands with two gold chains while they removed her 24-karat gold bracelet.
- On Oct. 8, an 88-year-old woman was walking in a west-end mall parking lot where she was approached by a couple in a car. The female suspect got out of the car, placed a gold necklace on the victim, then embraced her and said the necklace was "a gift from God for her." She then allegedly removed the victim's own diamond/gemstone gold pendant without her knowledge. The switch was only realized when the victim returned home.
The suspects are men and women with dark complexions and dark hair, speaking in heavy accents that may be Eastern European or Middle Eastern. They are believed to be travelling throughout Alberta.
"We want people to be cautious if approached by strangers trying to give or sell jewelry, and to report this suspicious activity to police as soon as possible," says Det. Emeric Derczeni. "These crimes typically revolve around gold jewelry, cash and distraction-style thefts. If you are approached, realize that you could be a potential victim of a theft or scam. Nobody reputable is giving away or selling gold jewelry, or anything else of value on the street."
Derczeni will be available Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. at police headquarters for comment on the trend, and will also have some samples of the jewelry being used in these crimes.

-- -- much investors -- awaiting the jobs number tomorrow so that's where we're gonna talk about today because our next guest says no matter what the outcome is.
This market the market in general just too cheap to pass up -- Morgan -- chief investment officer at fulcrum.
Securities he's here with this -- studio lot of people would say boy.
Last year we were going great and something went wrong Lawrence is talking about the French election maybe -- something in Europe but you say no by no matter what.
Yeah why -- there's certainly a possibility this could be another head fake Connell.
As you said -- will last year even a year before we had strong job growth tapered off and and and who -- you know the ADP employment report.
Disappointing yesterday in my right for pre staging that thinks this number was pretty good but -- 14 -- let's just take the S&P 500 because that's we talked about a moment ago it's obviously.
A good gauge of the broader market we'll bring up the S&P right now it's at 14100 -- Make the -- case to me.
You see it even if the S&P 500 doesn't grow earnings at all this year and even even most bare save there will be some growth that's fourteen times earnings and the historic norm is fifteen and a half so very cheap and some would say a low inflation environments like we have now for it it can sustain twenty times earnings for years at a time I'm.
I'm not going that far right but the stocks are cheap.
The S&P 500 even even with this consolidation that we're in right now -- is technically sound its above its 5200 day moving average so.
That this consolidation could continue for some time but but boy it sure looks cheap biggest worry though would be what what would throw you off and make your wrong well.
Europe is certainly something and -- hand -- longer term.
Infliction of got to keep prion inflation running short what are addicts -- and we've been saying that for years like.
Well they're step because are still so much slack.
In capacity so so we haven't had this inflation problem but the Fed can't take their ride -- all right let's talk about as you look at.
Europe and the percentage of -- GDP did that they're talking about the -- big problems over there but let's talk about.
In terms of the stocks that you like and you don't on -- obvious -- person that you like stocks.
-- industrial group like -- And you like some of the financial like Bank of New York Mellon -- why it is those wire those to type of groups people should be looking and well well front from -- from an industry standpoint industrials and financials.
Once again -- very technically sound.
Cheap sectors.
-- but we're seeing better than average earnings growth for both sectors going forward.
As as far as individual names scale Danaher.
You know there there are great organic -- -- burnings and that great products but to viewers are recognizable name would be craftsman tools but there were great acquisition company as well sell they sell about sixteen times earnings just barely above the market should grow 14% a year or so.
That's the case for -- Bank -- New York Mellon.
I recently went to an upgrade on on financial some some -- Sam may be being brave there.
But I think the technical improvement we've seen has has is saying the market is telling us that these balance sheets which are not fixed yet.
Will be fixed by 2013 -- fair enough robbed and you know we'll bring you back to see if you're -- is this tester -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Morgan from fulcrum securities thank you very much covered -- as we head over -- today to.

Coach Lawrence Frank won't be patrolling the sideline when the Detroit Pistons host the New York Knicks tonight at the Palace of Auburn Hills. And big men Greg Monroe and Charlie Villanueva could be unavailable as well. The Pistons announced this morning that the personal matter that caused Frank to miss Tuesday's practice also will keep him away from the team tonight. Assistant coach Brian Hill will run the team in his absence. "(Frank) has to take care of some family matters, and we wish him well and whatnot," guard Rodney Stuckey said. "B. Hill will step up and take his role, and we'll see what we can do." Monroe tweaked an ankle toward the end of practice Tuesday and is a game-time decision. Villanueva is questionable with a tight hamstring.
Pistons coach Lawrence Frank out tonight; Greg Monroe could be, too

Frederic Fekkai Customer Reviews
Frederic Fekkai Silky Straight Ironless Shampoo - It's a really great product. I use it every day. It makes my hair smooth and shinier than before. If you have curly hair as mine, I really recommend this product.!
Frederic Fekkai Silky Straight Ironless Conditioner - It is lighter weight than the Technician conditioner, however, I alternate this product with this one. I have always been pleased with Ff. I love the way my hair feels and acts with their product line. With Spring and summer around the corner, I will use this more often because I have naturally curly hair and I need all the help I can get ...with the humidity.
Frederic Fekkai Coiff Controle Ironless Straightening Balm - I started using this product about two months ago. My hair gets wavy during humid weather. This seems to help and it doesn't weigh my hair down. Also, my hair seems to have a more professional look when I blow it out using this product.
Frederic Fekkai Ageless Rejuvenating Shampoo - I've used other Fekkai shampoos/conditioners, volumizing and color treated and liked, since I'm in my 40's and have thin hair already, thought this one was worth trying. Used it exclusively for a week now and think I'm seeing good things. Hair seems to have some oomph/volume, good shine, gets hair clean....try to wash just every other day. Have had "good hair days" while using this. So far, I think this will be a repeat buy for me. Have not yet tried the conditioner but plan to soon. Glad I tried this.
Frederic Fekkai Advanced Essential Shea Ultra Rich Mask - Love the way this product makes my hair feel.

Sam Rockwell was born on Nov. 5, 1968, in Daly City CA, near the San Francisco Bay area. His parents, who were both aspiring actors, moved to New York City when Rockwell was two years old. When the couple split up several years later, Rockwell moved to San Francisco with his father he but grew up spending summers with his mother in Greenwich Village, tagging along with her to downtown theaters and after parties. While hanging out at a theater rehearsal one summer day, a director suggested that 10-year-old Rockwell would be a hilarious addition to a comedy sketch. He was instantly attracted to the stage, and began appearing in productions every year after that. Rockwell's bohemian lifestyle seemed to suit him, but as he grew into a restless teenager, even high school theater offerings could not hold his interest and he dropped out. His parents intervened, enrolling the stoner teen in an alternative schooling program that successfully got him back on track, aided in no small part by his focus on acting.
After Rockwell was cast in the TV film "Clownhouse" in 1988, he decided to move to New York full time and pursue acting. He trained at the acclaimed William Esper studio while holding down the requisite restaurant jobs. He auditioned steadily, landing guest spots on cop dramas and independent films like "Last Exit to Brooklyn" (1989) and "In the Soup" (1992), as well as joining downtown's LAByrinth theater company. In 1994, a lucrative beer commercial enabled Rockwell to put punch out on the restaurant clock for good. However, his career did not really take off until his off-center performance in Tom DeCillo's festival favorite "Box of Moonlight" (1996), in which he portrayed a whacked out, backwoods loner who helps enable the spiritual rebirth of staid engineer John Turturro. Though the insanity was in DeCillo's script, Rockwell dispatched it effortlessly, suddenly finding himself courted by directors impressed by his flair with "goofball misfit" characters.
Rockwell wrapped many projects within a year of "Box of Moonlight," including a starring role as a working-class landscaper who bonds with a wealthy 10-year-old girl (Mischa Barton) in "Lawn Dogs" (1997). The ease with which Rockwell portrayed a complex relationship between two characters that would seem to have nothing in common earned him Best Actor honors at both the Montreal World Film Festival and the Catalonian International Film Festival. He followed up with a pair of hilarious mob-gone-wrong comedies "Jerry and Tom" and "Safe Men" in 1998 before taking the stage for a two and half month run in a production of Mike Nichols' dark comedy, "Goose Pimples."
Rockwell's decade of independent films had led to comfortable "working actor" status, but now he began to get noticed by big-budget directors and Hollywood movie studios. First to the party was Woody Allen, who helped give Rockwell a boost with a bit part as an entourage member in "Celebrity" (1998). But it was Rockwell's chilling supporting role as "Wild Bill" Wharton in the Oscar-nominated "The Green Mile" (1999) that made audiences sit up and take notice of this new face at the cineplex. The film helped cement Rockwell's reputation for unpredictable, off-kilter characters, making him the go-to indie actor for Hollywood films that wanted some artistic street cred in their supporting cast. He did just that in "Galaxy Quest" (1999), playing a goofy struggling actor; and in "Charlie's Angels" (2000), in a turn as villainous software billionaire Eric Knox. Rockwell balanced his big-screen status with a return to the stage, appearing in "Dumb Waiter" and "Zoo Story" off Broadway and "Hot L Baltimore" at the Williamstown Theater in Cape Cod.
Rockwell was well on his way to household name status with George Clooney's directorial debut "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind," (2002) in which he brilliantly played a funhouse mirror version game-show host-turned-self-proclaimed CIA assassin, Chuck Barris. In 2003, he was cast in the critic's pick "Matchstick Men" (2003), and singled out by critics for his scene-stealing appeal as the promising protégée of a phobia-addled con artist (Nicolas Cage). Rockwell enjoyed the unique honor of appearing in yet another film with "galaxy" in the title when he was cast as Zaphod Beetlebrox in "The Hitchhikers's Guide to the Galaxy" (2005), a British film based on the perennial favorite sci-fi books by Douglas Adams. Critics were split on the film overall, but it was an international box-office success and Sam turned out a memorable performance as the three-armed, flowing-haired president of the galaxy.
Back on earth and in New York, Rockwell was directed by Philip Seymour Hoffman in a critically acclaimed LAByrinth Theater production of "Judas Iscariot." The versatile and unpredictable actor did not disappoint on either account when he took on the unusually "normal" role of the father of a disturbed boy in the 2007 psychological thriller, "Joshua;" however the film appeared to be Rockwell's first misstep in Hollywood. He promptly returned to his element with the affecting drama "Snow Angels" (2007), nominated for a Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, before inhabiting a Revolutionary war reenactor and con man in "Choke" (2008), based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk. In director Ron Howard's acclaimed "Frost/Nixon" (2008), he had a supporting part as journalist James Reston, Jr., which he followed with a starring role as a space-station employee suffering from isolation and loneliness in the moody sci-fi drama "Moon" (2009). After voicing team leader Darwin in the rather forgettable "G-Force" (2009), Rockwell portrayed rival weapons manufacturer to billionaire Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) in the hit sequel "Iron Man 2" (2010).
Following his modus operandi of alternating work in mainstream projects with roles in smaller, more demanding films, Rockwell was next seen in director Tony Goldwyn's based-on-fact drama "Conviction" (2010). For his unfiltered portrayal of Kenny Waters, a man wrongly convicted of a murder whose sister (Hilary Swank) worked tirelessly for decades to secure his release, the actor received a score of Best Supporting Actor nominations. Keeping with tradition, Rockwell popped up again in a big-budget blockbuster alongside Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford. Cast as a good-hearted saloon keeper who joins a posse in a desperate attempt to rescue his abducted wife, Rockwell gave a solid performance that was unfortunately not enough to lift the unwieldy "Cowboys & Aliens" (2011) above its one-note premise. Always attracted to somewhat unhinged characters, he was at his comically menacing best as Karl, the mercurial drug dealer out to collect a debt from Jonah Hill in the scatological adventure comedy "The Sitter" (2011). Despite his admirable contributions, "The Sitter" earned little but scorn from critics and indifference from audiences. The following year, writer-director Martin McDonagh's violent dark comedy "Seven Psychopaths" (2012) found Rockwell surrounded by a top-flight ensemble cast that included Colin Farrell, Woody Harrelson and Christopher Walken. With a manic energy perfectly suited for the role of Billy - an out-of-work actor and part-time dog-napper - Rockwell's performance earned him an Indie Spirit Award nod for Best Supporting Male.
In 2013, Rockwell turned up as Owen, the quirky manager of a water park, in the well-received feel-good indie film "The Way Way Back," written and directed by Nat Faxon and Jim Rash, the duo behind the Academy Award-winning script for "The Descendants" (2011). In sharp contrast to the ensemble comedy, which also starred Steve Carell and Liam James, Rockwell later starred in the tense crime drama "A Single Shot," with a tightly wound role that generated serious awards buzz.

Notes |
"I've been playing too many nice guys. I want to play guys who cackle-nasty pricks, psychos. I know it's fashionable, but I wouldn't overact. I'd be subtle and good." - Rockwell in Details magazine, August 1997 |
"I'm not sure I like making movies. Film is hard, largely because it's so tedious. Stage is where it really happens for an actor because it makes full use of whatever you have to give." - Rockwell in The Los Angeles Times, July 27, 1997 |
"Man, he's just got that thing where he can toss off a line with the weirdest reading. He's so dry, so minimal. There's so much restraint and subtlety." - Paul Giamatti on Rockwell to Premiere magazine, May 2005 |

The 15-watt DirectLED FL LED tube replaces traditional 40-watt T8/T10/T12 fluorescent tubes. Comes in a pack of 24 LED tubes.
The pin distance for the T8 is the same for T10 and T12 bulbs, so the T8 will fit in any fixtures that currently use T8, T10, or T12 fluorescents.
DirectLED FL Series Benefits:
- Long Life: 50,000 + hour lifespan exceeds even the highest quality fluorescents tubes
- Extreme Efficiency: Over 80% more efficient than traditional fluorescents tubes
- Flicker-Free Lighting: Eliminate eye strain and headaches associated with fluorescents lighting
- No buzzing/hum: the ballasts on some fluorescent lights cause an irritating hum, but since the ballast is not needed with LED bulbs, you'll never hear that again.
- More Energy Savings: DirectLED FL tubes require no ballast saving even more energy
- Shatter-Proof Design: Will not break even if dropped.
- No ballast required: saving you even more money on new installs.
- No Mercury Inside: Allows the use of tube lighting when mercury contamination is not an option
- Flexible Voltage: Use tube lighting in AC 110~277V
- No Interference: Perfect for settings where precise instruments can be disturbed by fluorescent tubes
- Instant Starting: Starts right away no matter the temperature or conditions
DirectLED FL Series for General Illumination
EarthLED FL series are well-suited for use anywhere: parking garages, homes, offices, museums, galleries, shop windows, hotels, restaurants, meeting rooms, just like conventional fluorescent lights.
Ballast Free Installation For Even More Power Savings.
The DirectLED FL Series does not require the use of a ballast, thus allowing you to save even more energy. And if you're used to hearing the 'buzz' or hum of your fluorescent lights, that will be eliminated when the ballast is no longer used. As an added benefit there is no ballast to break or fail ensuring even longer life. No ballast also means that the DirectLED FL can be used in T8, T10 or T12 fixtures for the ultimate in compatibility. Installation is simple but does require basic wiring knowledge. Simply disconnect or bypass the ballast during installation to install the DirectLED FL. If you do not feel comfortable with this type of basic wiring, please call an electrician.
DirectLED FL Utilizes 300 high power LEDs to provide 1500 lumens of quality, flicker-free light.
Key Point: Note that fluorescent tubes emit light in 360 degrees, and most of that light is blocked by the fixture and is thus wasted. LED tubes produce light from only one half of the tube, which faces downward in order to direct all the available light to the right area.
Choose between Warm, Neutral, or Cool color temperatures. Choose between Frosted finish (if you aren't going to use a plastic cover over the fixture) or Clear finish if you are going to put a cover over the fixture.

Questions about the LED Fluorescent Tube Replacement - 15 Watt - 4' Long - 24 pack
3 Item(s)
- From Dale at 7/6/12 8:49 AM
- The lumen rating of my old tubes is twice the lumen rating of the LED tubes. How is it that you claim the light level will be the same? Aren't all lumens the same? Will the light level with these lamps meet the IES recommended levels that my old system was designed to meet?
- Fluorescent tubes do have approximately double the lumen output compared to an LED tube, but the light throw is 360 degrees where light loss can be up to 40% within the fixture or not providing 100% of the light output towards working level (that takes away approximately 40% of the lumens). In addition, fluorescent tubes produce UV light which is captured by the lumen measurement instruments, but is not visible with the human eye, photopic vs scotopic. Those two issues render the DirectLED tubes comparable to a standard T8/T10/T12 fluorescent lamp.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No

- My existing fixture has ballasts. Will have to rewire & how? IF I rewire, will the fixture be safe if some one puts back an old tube, by mistake?
- The ballasts will be removed from your fixtures as part of the retrofit to LED tubes. The wiring is changed since the ballasts are not used. The LED tubes come with a detailed instruction page which shows the re-wiring scheme. It is recommended that rewiring be done by a licensed electrician.
Once the fixture has been retrofitted to LED configuration, the old fluorescent tubes will no longer work in the new fixture.
An Installation Kit, Replacement Label, and Installation instructions are provided with the LED Tube. - Do you find this question helpful? Yes No

- Will the LED lighting be enough or bright enough for a Hair Salon?
- If you have been using the traditional 40-watt T8/T10/T12 fluorescent tubes for your shop, then you will find these 15W LED tubes to be just as bright, and without any flickering or humming. I think you will find these a higher quality of light than the fluorescents.

Springfield board approves agreement with biomass developer
SPRINGFIELD A key provision of the new agreement between the town of Springfield and the developers of the proposed biomass plant in North Springfield involves a $3 million payment to build a new access road to serve the project.
But the $3 million would be part of a tax stabilization agreement between the town and the North Springfield Sustainable Energy Project, and would in essence be an advance payment toward those taxes, Town Manager Robert Forguites said Tuesday.
Forguites said the $3 million would not be in addition to property taxes the 35-megawatt project is expected to pay. The project has been estimated as high as $170 million to half that, so until the project is built and assessed, it is difficult to say how much it would ultimately pay in taxes, Forguites said.
Forguites said he expected the biomass plant, if built, would increase Springfields Grand List by 15 percent. He said it is currently at about $660 million.
The Springfield Select Board voted 4-1 in favor of the memorandum of understanding between the town and North Springfield Sustainable Energy Project, a joint venture of Winstanley Enterprises and Weston Solutions.
Voting against the agreement was Select Board member Michael Knoras, who told fellow board members at Monday nights meeting he wanted some changes made in the agreement. Knoras couldnt be reached for comment Tuesday.
Select Board member David Yesman said he had originally proposed the board approve the agreement conditionally, with some changes incorporated regarding protection of the aquifer in North Springfield, with final approval set for the boards next meeting in mid-July.
But Yesman said Tuesday he withdrew his motion because he realized that the town had no power to enforce what he was seeking that is up to the Agency of Natural Resources.
Forguites said the project would give $1.5 million upfront to the town to build the access road. They would still pay taxes under the tax stabilization plan, which has not been finalized yet, he said.
The $3 million would be a credit toward its first 10 years of taxes, he said.
They would still be paying a sizeable amount of taxes, Forguites said.
At Monday nights meeting, at least one resident urged the board not to enter into a tax stabilization agreement with the project, noting it wasnt a clean industry and wouldnt create many jobs.
Forguites said the Southern Windsor County Regional Planning Commission was working on its own memorandum of understanding with the project to address regional issues such as truck traffic and access routes.
The biomass developers already have an option on one of two properties they would need to build the new access road from Route 10 to the North Springfield Industrial Park.
