Lighting the world with bright ideas, one child at a time.
Ayn- I love the salt experiment. For older children, it is fun to experiment with salt and to come to the realization that at a certain temperature, the effects of adding salt are not noticable. Perhaps our indoor water and ice experiments will evolve to include salt soon too :).
What a great science activity - love that the conversation kept going long after the process was completed:)
Thank you for visiting little illuminations. I'd love you to share your thoughts!

Will DoD budget, strategy speed sequestration cuts?
Travis Sharp, a fellow at the Center for a New American Security, joined In Depth with Francis Rose to discuss the defense budget. Sharp argued that the new budget and the accompanying strategy may actually make the automatic sequestration cuts, set to begin in January 2013, easier for Congress to swallow.

Report: US needs to invest in National Guard and Reserves
The National Guard and Reserves used to be called the "weekend warriors;" a force of last resort. But since the Sept. 11 attacks, there's been increasing reliance on the Guard and Reserves for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Travis Sharp, a research associate at the Center for a New American Security, talks about the findings in his organization's new report about the use of the Guard and Reserves.

Pops in smoothly for anal pleasure!
Sticking a plug in it is a pleasure thanks to these anal toys!
• Tapered shaft slips in easily even for beginners
• Raised rib curves along plug for extra stimulation
• Flared bottom helps hold the butt plug in place
• Suction cup base lets you ride your butt plug
• Made from non-porous silicone to make it easy to clean and maintain
• Small Plug measures 1.25 inches wide and 3.5 inches long
• Large Plug measures 1.5 inches wide and 4 inches long
The Corked Butt Plug features a smoothly tapered shaft that slides easily inside your rear with just a little dab of lube – making it a great butt plug for beginners. A special raised rib runs along the curvature of the anal sex toy to provide extra stimulation when you pop the cork into place!
The bottom of the butt plug flares outward – giving your sphincter ring something to grip so you can hold the butt plug securely in place during sex or even while going about your daily routine. The flared bottom even doubles as a safety feature to keep you from inserting the sex toy too deeply.
The suction cup base sticks securely to most smooth, hard surfaces so you can ride your butt plug while leaving your hands free.
The Corked Butt Plug is available in two different sizes. The Small Corked Butt Plug measures 1.25 inches wide and 4 inches long, with up to 3.5 inches insertable. The Large Corked Butt Plug measures 1.5 inches wide and 4.75 inches long, with up to 4 inches long insertable. Both sizes are made from 100% silicone – a material valued for its hypoallergenic and nonporous properties. This makes silicone sex toys safe to use for people with sensitive skin and severe allergies. It also means silicone is easier to clean and maintain than similar materials.
Adam & Eve recommends the Corked Butt Plugs for anal stimulation.
The butt plugs are compatible with Adam & Eve's water-based sex lubes. Before and after using the butt plugs, be sure to wash them in warm, soapy water and rinse them clean. You can even dip the butt plugs in boiling water or run them through your dishwasher if you want to be thorough. Be sure to dry the butt plugs completely before storing them with the rest of your sex toys.

About Me Trendy/Stylish Dresser
Comments about Burton Expedition 1/4 Zip Baselayer Top - Women's:
Great for active outdoors activity. Can be used as first layer or second layer. Super soft and long so you can tuck in your ski/snowboard pants. Beautiful color. Top material and the anti-odor technology really works. It's also stylish and comfortable. I can be size S or M, I ordered S and at first thought it was a bit wide but then I learned that it doesn't have to be snug to be warm and effective!
Love it!

About Me Casual Dresser
I bought this in size Med, but pants in Large. I'm 5'9" and 140lbs. I have tall slender build. I thought the large would be right size but it was too bulky to serve as base layer and the med arms are plenty long enough for me.
I want to wear this all day everyday
By QP
from Seattle, WA
I LOVE THIS TOP! It is soo soft and comfortable and luxurious! It is the perfect thickness as a baselayer when you're on the mountain. I like that it has stretch to it and it allows me to move around easily. My favorite part is the 1/4 zip and the collar. The collar keeps my neck and chin warm but at the same time I can hardly feel it, which is a good thing. It is soft against your face and not irritating and you don't feel like the zipper/fabric is jabbing into your neck at all. I think the 1/4 zip is the perfect amount of zippage when ya get too hot or cold on the mountain. Burton products have good length; the body is a good length and I also love the sleeve length with the soft thumbholes! I got the Hex color and I wear it casually during the week as well!

Obese woman in distress hauled downstairs using sheet and ropes in St Helier
11:04am Thursday 31st October 2013 in News By Mike Pyle, Chief Reporter
A woman who was too big to be lifted by paramedics had to be pushed down her stairs by firefighters.
The crew had to slide the overweight woman onto a sheet usually used to catch people falling from buildings and attach ropes to it so they could lift her over her bannister and carry her down the stairs.
It is not the first time Sutton firefighters have been asked to remove an overweight person from their home and a spokesman said similar incidents are becoming more common, describing it as "a sign of the times".
Paramedics had been called to the woman's home in Rougemont Road on the St Helier Estate as she was unwell at about 6am today.
But they found they could not carry her down the stairs as she was too big for them to lift so, firefighters from Sutton were called.
A crew member from Sutton fire station said: "We get more and more of these lately, it's a sign of the times, I think."
The woman, who is thought to have suffered a fit, was taken to nearby St Helier Hospital.

Very informative article..having one doubt can we include our other SEPMs also in this?
Thanks & Regards,
"Defeat the Defeat before the Defeat Defeats you"
(Swami Vivekananda)
This article will cover the basic procedure for installing and configuring IT Analytics 7.1 with the Symanted Endpoint Protection reporting content pack. This process assumes that you already have the Symantec Management Platform installed, and that server already meets the requirements for IT Analytics 7.1 SP2. For the complete list of software prerequisites for IT Analytics please refer to article HOWTO62383 on the Symantec Knowledge Base.
IT Analytics 7.1 SP2 and the various reporting content packs are available for install via the Symantec Installation Manager. These installation files can be downloaded directly to your server or you can create offline installation packages.
Once IT Analytics has been installed, there are a few settings that will need to be configured to ensure a successful implementation.
http://servername/ReportServer$InstanceName/ (for SQL Server 2005)
http://servername/ReportServer_InstanceName/ (for SQL Server 2008)
Configure these connections before you install the IT Analytics Symantec Endpoint Protection cubes.
To configure Symantec Endpoint Protection connections:
IT Analytics Server lets you add additional Symantec Endpoint Protection connections so their relevant data can be leveraged for reporting purposes. This provides a global reporting view across multiple SEP manager databases without the need to replicate large amounts of data.
To add additional Symantec Endpoint Protection connections:
Before IT Analytics cubes and reports can be viewed in the Symantec Management Console, they must first be installed from the content pack. You may choose to install all available cubes and reports or just some individually to meet your specific reporting needs.
This task is essential for the solution to function properly because the cubes do not contain any data until the cube processing is complete.
You can create and assign processing schedules for all installed cubes. Your business needs to dictate how often the cubes should be processed. For a typical configuration, all cubes should be processed daily.
Multiple processing tasks can be used for more granular control of cube processing. More than one cube can share a dimension. In this case, the last processed date of all cubes that use that dimension updates to the last processed date of the shared dimensions. However, the actual data in the cubes is not processed until a processing task is run that is configured to process that specific cube.
To configure the cube processing tasks:
You can verify your installation and ensure that all of your configuration steps complete successfully.
To verify your installation:
Scandinavian customers should also be aware that the Notification Server database that IT-Analytics runs on must be installed with Latin_General_CI_AS (or other supported Collations listed in link below). Installing with Norwegian_danish or any other collation will result in failed Processing.
This is a duplicate post, I created this one: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/configuring-sep-report-pack-it-analytics on the 5th of September. Also are posts on DLP + ITA and CSP and ITA
I created a blog post here on connect linkign to all of them

Vettel makes it seven up in Singapore
There seems to be no stopping Sebastian Vettel and his march towards a fourth consecutive Formula One World Drivers Championship.
PT1M1S http://www.theage.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-2u8s0 620 349 September 23, 2013- Autoplay OnOff

SINGAPORE: Mark Webber is reportedly fuming after being punished by formula one stewards for hitching a ride back to pit lane on the side of Fernando Alonso's Ferrari at the end of Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix.
Both drivers received reprimands over the incident, but it was Webber who was hit hardest given it was his third sanction of the season. The Australian Red Bull pilot was cited for walking onto the circuit without permission and slapped with a 10-place grid penalty for next month's race in South Korea.
Expensive ride: Mark Webber arrives back in the pits onboard Fernando Alonso's Ferrari. Photo: Getty Images
Webber had pulled off the track with his car in flames after an engine failure on the final lap. Rather than having a slow post-race walk back to the pits, he dashed out onto the circuit, hailed Alonso's Ferrari like it was a taxi and then clambered onto the sidepod for a quicker ride back.
Alonso, reprimanded for his dangerous actions, had already finished the race in second, behind winner Sebastian Vettel. Three cars on their slowdown laps - including Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes - had to take evasive action to avoid Webber and Alonso's slow Ferrari.
''There's not much I can say about that,'' Webber said. ''It's very frustrating, but the stewards have made their decision. It's now going to compromise my race in Korea, which is tough to take.''
But according to former driver and TV commentator Martin Brundle, Webber was filthy. ''Just spoke with AussieGrit, you have no idea how p off he is about a 10 place grid drop in Korea for catching a lift with Alonso,'' Brundle posted on Twitter on Monday.
Just spoke with @AussieGrit , you have no idea how p***** off he is about a 10 place grid drop in Korea for catching a lift with Alonso.
— Martin Brundle (@MBrundleF1) September 22, 2013
The penalty did not sit well with Red Bull boss Christian Horner either, who said the image of Alonso giving Webber a lift was ''good TV'' and did not deserve such a harsh punishment. ''It should have been dealt with by a fine or a slap on the wrist,'' Horner told Autosport.
''Perhaps, in this instance, a talking to the drivers would have sufficed. Ideally a fine would have been better, but I don't believe that is something available to the stewards now. It is a shame and frustrating because that puts Mark now on the back foot now in Korea. It is what it is and we certainly can't change it.''
Hamilton, who said the image was reminiscent of Nigel Mansell giving Ayrton Senna a lift home at the 1991 British Grand Prix, admitted he was ''really shocked'' by the incident. ''I went to the right of him, but if Mark had been walking across where I went then I would have run him over. Fortunately, that wasn't the case,'' he said.
''It's good for the fans to see and, as long as it's done in a safe manner - you don't stop on the racing line - then maybe it should be allowed for the future.''

McDonalds SEO!
Medium, Large or Supersize? Do you want fries with that?
A lot of companies are selling SEO in bronze, silver and gold packages, with additional bolt ons and unrealistic guarantees.
The sales pitch is so refined that it becomes a little like ordering a fast food meal. You know what you're getting, and it's gonna be fast, and you can add extras if you like. They want the sale. Done. On to the next client.
A lot of the smaller businesses out there with limited budgets will go and get a load of quotes. They will have many of these 'McDonalds SEO' pitches, and then they may get a few 'real' marketing quotes from companies such as ours. A holistic and realistic solution that will increase organic traffic and sales in a safe and effective manner.
The short term 'supersize big mac meal with extra fries' solution will always win to the uneducated client. Shame.
Alarm Bells Should Ring If SEO Companies Are Guaranteeing #1 For £99
No SEO company in the world is a 'Google Partner' in the context of organic traffic. No company can guarantee what Google will do TODAY, let alone tomorrow or 3 months time. All a company can do is follow best SEO practices, and the value will come from increased traffic and sales. We've spoke to many companies that have been burnt by these type of SEO services in the past. Dodgy links, ranking penalties and some don't even make on site changes.
I'm not saying all companies with guarantees and packages are bad. And some of these services may well work for your small local business with low competition.
All I'm saying is that if you're wanting to SERIOUSLY increase traffic and online sales in competitive markets you will need a FULL SERVICE SEO Campaign, with a complete audit, on site optimisation and effective link building. It will be a 6 or 12 month campaign, with realistic goals.
…and it will cost more than £99 unfortunately.
There's Good News Though. The Results From A REAL 12 month SEO Campaign can double or even TRIPLE your business.
So, next time you're considering a McDonalds, why not have a 24oz Steak Instead?
Great SEO costs more money, but you get REAL results.

I need to hit the talent with wind and water for stolen shots of a storm approaching over the ocean... The bg/fg will be enhanced with cg.
I can get a genny if need be but I am planning to use a gas powered leaf blower for the wind (to stay low profile). Use it from a distance for the wides...the CUs have the storm intensifying and I'm going to hit the talent with the leaf blower from closer.
For water...what is my best bet? I don't have access to running water but I want realistic rain drops over the talent (the foreground and bg are cg). I am considering an insecticide/garden sprayer but will that have enough output to even register? Or I could simple use a watering can; I am sure the talent would appreciate it but it wouldn't look organic, imp. But there must be some kind of creative rig out there.
Thanks! Only looking for cheap/guerrilla methods, btw. If I had the money to do this right I would be making another movie instead.

Dennis Weaver Movies
A track star at the University of Oklahoma,
Dennis Weaver
went on to serve as a Navy Pilot during World War II. After failing to make the 1948 U.S. decathalon Olympic team, Weaver accepted the invitation of his college chum
Lonny Chapman
to give the New York theatre world a try. He understudied Chapman as "Turk Fisher" in the Broadway production Come Back Little Sheba, eventually taking over the role in the national company. Deciding that acting was to his liking, Weaver enrolled at the Actors' Studio, supporting his family by selling vacuum cleaners, tricycles and ladies' hosiery. On the recommendation of his Actors' Studio classmate
Shelley Winters
, Weaver was signed to a contract at Universal studios in 1952, where he made his film debut in
The Redhead From Wyoming
(1952). Though his acting work increased steadily over the next three years, he still had to take odd jobs to make ends meet. He was making a delivery for the florist's job where he worked when he was informed that he'd won the role of deputy Chester Goode on the TV adult western Gunsmoke. So as not to be continually upstaged by his co-star
James Arness
(who, at 6'7", was five inches taller than the gangly Weaver), he adopted a limp for his character--a limp which, along with Chester's reedy signature line "Mis-ter Diillon" and the deputy's infamously bad coffee, brought Weaver fame, adulation and a 1959 Emmy Award. Though proud of his work on Gunsmoke--"I don't think any less seriously of Chester than I did about King Lear in college"--Weaver began feeling trapped by Chester sometime around the series' fifth season. Having already proven his versatility in his film work (notably his portrayal of the neurotic motel night clerk in
Orson Welles
Touch of Evil
[1958]), Weaver saw to it that the Gunsmoke producers permitted him to accept as many "outside" TV assignments as his schedule would allow. Twice during his run as Chester, Weaver quit the series to pursue other projects. He left Gunsmoke permanently in 1964, whereupon he was starred in the one-season "dramedy" series
Kentucky Jones
(1965). In 1967, he headlined a somewhat more successful weekly,
Gentle Ben
(1967-69) in which he and everyone else in the cast played second fiddle to a trained bear (commenting upon his relationship with his "co-star", Weaver replied "I liked him, but it was a cold relationship...Ben didn't know me from a bag of doughnuts.") The most successful of Weaver's post-Gunsmoke TV series was
, in which, from 1970 to 1977, he played deputy marshal Sam McCloud, a New Mexico lawman transplanted to the Big Apple. In addition to his series work, Weaver has starred in several made-for-TV movies over the past 25 years, the most famous of which was the

As a condition of her parole from juvenile hall, embittered teenager Kris Furillo goes to work at Raintree Horse Farm, located in Fremont, CA, as the ABC Family Channel series Wildfire inaugurates its first season. Upon her arrival, Kris saves the life of Wildfire, an unbroken horse who'd been slated to be destroyed because it was deemed "useless" and "un-trainable." Having herself been consigned to the ash heap of society as an incorrigible loser, Kris forms a strong bond with Wildfire, who will respond only to her commands. As the friendship between girl and horse intensifies, the owner of Raintree, divorcée Jean Ritter (Nana Visitor), begins to see potential in Wildfire as a racing horse, and before long she is pinning her hopes on the notion that Wildfire -- and by extension, Kris -- will enable Jean to restore her family's fortune. Meanwhile, the Ritter family's traditional rivals, the Davis clan, demonstrate that they are willing to do practically anything to prevent Wildfire from stealing thunder from their own stable of horses. In particular, snooty teenager Danielle Davis (Nicole Tubiola) is determined to force Kris off the Raintree property, if for no other reason than Kris has stolen the heart of Danielle's erstwhile boyfriend, Jean's son Matt Ritter (Micah Alberti). Curiously, Danielle's down-to-Earth brother Junior Davis (Ryan Sypek) ends up as one of Kris' best friends and strongest supporters! During the 12 episodes of season one, Kris has a disturbing run-in with her mother Barb (Stacy Haiduk), who is accused of stealing valuables from the Ritter home; Matt develops a gambling problem which siphons much-needed money from his mom's bank account (already depleted by the exigencies of feed bills, IRS payments, and the like); Jean Ritter's troublesome ex-husband Pete (Joe Lando) pops up at the least opportune moment; Kris risks being returned to "juvie" when she starts taking prescription painkillers; and there is intrigue aplenty involving a famous female jockey named Tina Sharp (Amy Jo Johnson). As the season ends, we see a more vulnerable side of the unlovable Danielle Davis as she desperately seeks out the mother who had deserted her many years before. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Virginian
Actor Bill Pullman made his directorial debut with this third screen adaptation of the classic Western novel by Owen Wister. The Virginian (Pullman) leaves the state of his birth to make a new life for himself on the frontier of the American West. He falls in love with Molly Stark (Diane Lane), a schoolteacher also new to Wyoming, and becomes the foreman of a successful cattle ranch, hoping to make good in her eyes. But he is forced to resort to violence when he must protect the ranch against the treacheries of a rival rancher and the betrayal of a former friend; Molly's stern opposition to eye-for-an-eye justice demands that he choose between his conscience and the woman he loves. The Virginian, which received its world premiere on the TNT cable network, co-stars John Savage, Dennis Weaver, and Colm Feore; James Drury, who played the title role in the 1960s TV series based on The Virginian, appears as Rider. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

One of Hollywood's most acclaimed Westerns gets a new interpretation in this made-for-TV remake of Fred Zinnemann's 1952 classic. Will Kane (Tom Skerritt), the marshal of the frontier town of Hadleyville, is stepping down to marry his sweetheart Amy (Susanna Thompson) and move on to a less demanding occupation. However, on the day of his wedding, Will gets bad news -- Frank Miller (Michael Madsen), an outlaw Will helped to put behind bars, has just been released from jail and will arrive in Hadleyville on the noon train to settle his score with the marshal. Will appeals for support from the local townspeople, most of whom have done little to help him in the past, and they unfortunately behave in much the same manner in his time of greatest need; Amy even turns her back on her fiancé rather than become a widow on the day of her marriage. In the end, Will finds that he alone must face Miller in a shootout in Hadleyville's main street. Also featuring Dennis Weaver, Maria Conchita Alonso, and Reed Diamond, this version of High Noon was produced for the TNT cable network, where it first aired on August 20, 2000. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Seduction in a Small Town
Small-town housewife Sarah Jenks (Melissa Gilbert) would hardly qualify as the most popular woman in her community: She constantly speaks her mind, contemptuously disdains those who aren't vegetarians like herself, and (horrors!) does not attend church on Sunday. However, no one would ever claim that Sarah was not a loving and devoted mother to her children--at least not until the day that a spiteful woman named Sandy Barlow (Joely Fisher) levies accusations that Sarah is guilty of child abuse. Never bothering to question Sandy's ulterior motives (the audience knows that she has sexual designs on Sarah's husband), the authorities take her charges seriously, and before long Sarah's children have been ripped away from her and placed into foster care. Inspired by actual events, this nailbiting made-for-TV movie exposes the dangers of taking people and events at face value, accepting baseless lies as Gospel and adhering to a rigid "rules are rules" mentality. Seduction in a Small Town made itsABC debut on February 9, 1997. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Stolen Women: Captured Hearts
Based on a true story, the made-for-TV Stolen Women, Captured Hearts takes place in Kansas in 1868. In retribution for the genocidal attacks of General George Armstrong Custer, a band of Lakota Sioux kidnap a pair of white women, Anna Brewster Morgan (Janine Turner) and Sarah White (Jean Louisa Kelly). At first terrified of her captors, Anna eventually falls in love with the noble, honorable Sioux warrior Tokalah (Michael Greyeyes). After a year's captivity, Sarah is returned to her own people--and now she must choose between her new life with Tokalah and her previous existence as the wife of farmer Daniel Morgan (Patrick Bergin), a man she hardly knows. Stolen Women, Captured Hearts made its CBS network bow on March 16, 1997. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

"For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds;Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds."
William Shakespeare
"Criticizing another's garden doesn't keep the weeds out of your own"
"A good garden may have some weeds"
Thomas Fuller
"We can get fuel from fruit, from that shrub by the roadside, or from apples, weeds, saw-dust - almost anything! There is fuel in every bit of vegetable matter that can be fermented. There is enough alcohol in one year's yield of a hectare of potatoes to drive the machinery necessary to cultivate the field for a hundred years. And it remains for someone to find out how this fuel can be produced commercially - better fuel at a cheaper price than we know now."
Henry Ford
"The richest genius, like the most fertile soil, when uncultivated, shoots up into the rankest weeds"
David Hume
"Regulations grow at the same rate as weeds."
Norman R. Augustine
"Go oft to the house of thy friend, for weeds choke the unused path."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The richest soil, if cultivated, produces the rankest weeds"
"Junk is not, like alcohol or weed, a means to increased enjoyment of life. Junk is not a kick. It is a way of life."
William S. Burroughs
"So what if I'm smokin' weed onstage and doing what I gotta do? It's not me shooting nobody, stabbing nobody, killing nobody. It's a peaceful gesture and they have to respect that and appreciate that."

Head and Neck Cancer is a spectrum of disease covering malignant disease of the upper aerodigestive tract, salivary glands and thyroid. They comprise of 3% of all the new cancers seen in the UK per year. They are therefore relatively rare and should be treated by individuals that deal with this spectrum of disease regularly in a centre that has the complete infrastructure necessary to support a patient through their treatment.
This article on laryngeal cancer / head and neck cancer is written by Francis Vaz, ENT and Head & Neck Surgeon, London.
Laryngeal cancer is the commonest Head and Neck Cancer in the Western world and represents 1% of all malignancies in men. Each year in excess of 2000 patients are diagnosed in the UK with laryngeal cancer and whilst the treatment for early laryngeal cancer is extremely successful there are approximately 800 deaths per year related to laryngeal cancer. This is why they should be treated by people who see and treat this sort of cancer frequently and work within a department that has the specialists to manage patients well.
The major risk factor for laryngeal cancer is smoking but a synergistic effect from high alcohol ingestion can increase the risk. Laryngeal cancer is five times more common in men than women with a peak incidence occurring in the sixth/seventh decades of life. The commonest type of laryngeal cancer is a squamous cell carcinoma although other malignant and benign cancers are sometimes seen.
As part of the management of a patient with laryngeal cancer a patient often starts by seeing an ENT surgeon. The presenting feature most often is one of a change in voice. The ENT surgeon will take a careful history and then examine the patient performing a flexible nasolaryngoscopy (fibreoptic examination of the larynx) in the Out-Patient setting.
Special investigations will be undertaken in the form of a CT Scan of the larynx, neck and chest. Sometimes an Ultrasound of the neck will be performed and a date will be booked to examine the patient under anaesthesia to examine the larynx more closely and to biopsy it.
The treatment options following the diagnosis will depend on the stage of tumour. Simplified, the staging is looked at as follows:
T1 (a) Limited to one site
T1 (b) In two sites but one region
T2 Involving two or more regions
T3 Within the larynx but with fixation of one of the vocal cords
T4 Spread outside the larynx
Treatment Options are dependent on the stage, fitness and age of the patient.
For an early laryngeal cancer this is a very feasible option of treatment where the primary laryngeal cancer can be lasered out and the specimen examined by the pathologist. Biopsies are also taken from the periphery of the specimen to see if there has been complete removal. It is quite commonly followed up with a repeat endoscopy and biopsy 6 weeks later to reassess the area that was surgically excised.
Clearly resecting part of the larynx will have an effect on the voicebox. Typically, patients already have a distorted voice that will never be normal again. No clinical trials have been completed with regards to showing if transoral laser surgery is better for voice compared with radiotherapy alone and we await the results being compiled from a trial in Australia for this information. The benefits of this is that it involves one or two inpatient stays for the endoscopies and laser surgery versus the multiple visits over 4 weeks for radiotherapy; the other treatment option for early laryngeal cancer.
Radiotherapy is the use of ionising radiation to treat cancers. The radiation damages the structure of the DNA in cells both normal and cancerous. This means that normal tissues will be damaged. However the cancerous cells are more susceptible to the damage and cannot repair their DNA as efficiently and therefore succumb more usually to the effects of the radiotherapy.
Early laryngeal cancers can be treated with external beam narrow field radiotherapy. This is typically delivered in fractions to reduce the toxic effects of the radiotherapy and is done so over approximately 4 weeks and with 20 fractions. This requires a mould of the face and head and neck to be created for the patient that they use every time their radiotherapy is delivered to ensure accurate treatment.
For larger laryngeal cancers wider fields are delivered to encompass the lymph nodes that drain from the larynx and are usually the first route of spread of the tumour. In addition, larger doses of radiotherapy can be delivered over a longer time frame typically 6 weeks. Chemotherapy can also be given to enhance the effect of the radiotherapy and increase the efficacy of the radiotherapy.
This is the operation that most people dread with laryngeal cancer. Many things have changed with this operation over the years and nowadays I can say that in excess of 90 % of my patients who require this operation should have intelligible voice and will normally have a soft diet. It is however an operation where the voicebox is removed and swallowing tube is reconstructed. It is reserved for large T4 or T3 laryngeal cancers in the first treatment setting and for the recurrent or residual disease that can occur after radiotherapy.
The voice box is removed in the operation and the airway (trachea) is fashioned in front of the neck making the patient a neck breather for the rest of their lives. Care post operatively of this breathing tube by the patient is imperative as the normal humidification of the mouth and nose is not connected but is easily done by the use of a heat and moisture exchanger or the use of a moistened neck scarf.
A voice valve is also inserted into the breathing tube that will allow air to be directed into the mouth to voice. Good quality of voice can be achieved in most laryngectomy cases but requires the cooperation of the patient, surgeon and speech and language therapist.
Typically the patient is in for approximately 2-3 weeks and then there is a period of a couple of months of rehabilitation in the outpatient setting before the patient is feeling completely confident and competent with all aspects of post laryngectomy care. However, laryngectomees can get back to normal working lives (depending on their occupations) as there are only a few restrictions post laryngectomy.
Laryngeal cancer by virtue of the fact it is rare needs to be treated through a centre that has the specialists within it to treat and look after a patient throughout their management plan.
Making the diagnosis of laryngeal cancer requires skilled clinicians, surgeons and oncologists. They take a detailed, systematic history and recognise risk factors. Appropriate special investigations, reported by experts in their fields is essential. This includes dedicated Head and Neck radiologists to look at the variety of X-Rays taken for patients, dedicated pathologists looking at specimens and biopsies and dedicated cytopathologists looking at cells extracted from head and neck lumps by a process called fine needle aspiration cytology. Patients should be discussed in a multidisciplinary forum such that unilateral decisions are not made. These will include not just the specialists named above such as the surgeons, oncologists, pathologists and radiologists but also the other very important aspects to a Head and Neck Cancer Centre including Clinical Nurse Specialists, Speech and Language Therapists and Dieticians.
The overall outcome is dependent on the stage of the disease. Many laryngeal cancers are treatable and the cure rates for early laryngeal cancer are exceptionally favourable. The key to good management is to be treated by members of a team that see this type of disease process regularly.

2x23 watt CFL design
I'm new here, hello.
I've read the basics and the new mesh sizes, and come up with a plan. My plan is to use a 23 watt CFL on each side of a 9.5 x 5" sheet of mesh with a pump that I just measured at 180 gph. My understanding is these three numbers add up. The 180 gph pump divided by 35 gph per inch of mesh equals just over 5". 46 watts of lighting equals 46 square inches of mesh. 46 square inches divided by 5" equals just over 9", so the mesh is 9.5 x 5". This ATS should handle 1 cube of food per 12 square inches, equals 3.8 cubes. Do I have the math right?
I have another bulb to add to the close side, but here it is:

The following article is from Dr. Michelle Arnold, Large Ruminant Extension Veterinarian, University of Kentucky
We received this article from Dr. Will Snell, Ag Economic specialist at University of Kentucky College of Ag, and I thought it was an informative article to share with you.
The 4-H Talent Show has been rescheduled for Monday, May 13 at 6:15 p.m. at the Mackville Community Center. The public is invited to attend the event, which will feature 4-H members in vocal, instrumental, physical skills and theatrical categories. There is an admission price. Top acts will advance to the Kentucky State Fair to perform in Cloverville in August.
Warmer weather brings more pest problems. Horn flies and face flies are key pests of cattle in Kentucky. Both species breed in fresh pasture manure piles but present very different threats and management problems. Fortunately, there are a variety of fly control options.
The members of the Best Sew-ers In Town 4-H Club will be modeling their completed outfits at the annual Washington/Marion Co. 4-H Fashion Revue on Monday, May 6. This year's event will be held at the Marion County Extension Office beginning at 6 p.m. The public is invited to attend and admission is free to the event.
This is a recent article from our Pest News Alert Newsletter and with all the wheat out this year we thought you would be interested in reading about the armyworms.
Spring must really be here as armyworm (aka true armyworm) moths have taken flight. Only a few moths have been captured thus far, but it does signal the beginning of insect season in the field crops and the current year's capture is in line with the outbreak year of 2008. It is still too early to get real excited but important enough to be aware.
We know far too well that late spring frosts and freezes are very common in Kentucky. These late frosts always seem to follow a long warm stretch that has made many of our trees, shrubs, flowers, and fruit trees start to grow. Nurseries and garden centers sell tomato plants among many other frost sensitive plants much too early.

Okay, if you really want to know...
My kid was in the B/C level in a recent small local tournament (WS event). I think she definitely can win the D-level (at least in small to medium size ones), may win C-level.
Now you can put some fudge factor to account for the difference between WS and MS at the same grade level, and you can figure out roughly where you're, in case you haven't played any MS tournament lately.
You should play lunge with your dominant leg in doubles if you go in for a net shot either in attacking or defending rotation. It only makes sense to get more reach and extend your arm whether it is a net shot or net kill. Just because you may not notice it in doubles does not mean it should be an excuse! Doubles and Singles are completely different games!
Oh and in regards to taking a small step backwards after a shot, look at a professional singles match. Generally the player, after playing a net shot will hover around the net to reply another net shot. If it is lifted past them, they have ample time to get back.
First off, I didn't watch the entire video. These are general suggestions that will improve your game regardless of how you played in the videos.
You should work on your short serve.
If you notice a strong draft in the hall, you shouldn't be doing the long serve at all. If you practice your short serve enough and able to execute a very offensive short serve, your opponent wouldn't be able to respond aggressively even if he/she knows you're doing a short serve. I find that a good short serve will often level the playing field (in terms of experience) for a doubles player transitioning into singles play (the case with me when I play singles).
Stick to what you're good at.
A big issue I have sometimes in the first few shots of playing singles is getting used to the lines in singles. I often make amazing shots (drops, net shots, attacking clears etc, but especially net shots) but only if the lines were for a doubles game. So for the first few rallies, I will go for body shots/drives that I'm accustomed to executing from my doubles experience. Once you get into the rhythm aim for the back lines first and then slowly build your confidence for the sidelines.
Practice, practice, practice.
There is definitely room for improvement.
Yes , most people do hit the smash at the high of the jump , thats why people hit jump smash . Otherwise whats the point of jumping like you do and hit the shuttle at the lowest point of the jump . Great power on those smash but they are too flat and placement needed to be desire. Sometimes it is wise to sacrifice that power in order for the placement and steepness of the shuttle
Also , split step (1st step) , if you watch yourself closely , you would notice majority of your movement /footwork missed that step .
soooooooooooooo many mistakes
I'm not a pro. it looks really good for me. In Switzerland I rarely see people, who play so well. I don't know how good Startlover will be, but my opinion is, That's a really good basic. We always can improve. By Startlover I can see, your smash isn't really effective. But practice, then you're gonna be a good player.
My level is a little bit less then Startlover, but lots of ppl told me, that I'm playing really well. But I also know, that I everytime can improve my badminton game. So, I don't understand, why some ppl tell, he is playing awful and didn't say, what to improve, or didn't give a reason for improve.
Just before the end of hang time , but this depends on how high you can jump and where the shuttle is , and how steep you want the smash to be. But definitely not just before landing . Glad someone else notice his footwork .....I would say 70-80% of the time there were no split step .
Time for my 2 cents...
I would say I'm about the same level sinlges player as you. I don't play singles, but if your doubles is anything like your singles, then I'm probably better lol.
Anyway, you seem to execute some nice shots, but as many people have commented on your jump smash. Forget about jumping for now, and concentrate on having both feet firmly on the ground for when you execute the smash. You make far too many easy mistakes like on the service and sometimes it seems like you just can't be bothered.
Sorry if it sounds a little harsh, but that's just what I feel you need to improve on to become a better player after watching the video. Apart from that, keep up the good work. Probably not many people on here who have the balls to post up a video of themselves to get criticised. Personally I like getting criticised because it just makes me want to be a better player. Good luck.
One thing I have noticed is your racket preparation for overhead shots isn't ideal. You tend to drag your racket alongside your foot and then bring it up at the last second before you play the shot.
Try to get your racket up as soon as you know your opponent has played a clear or lift.That way if your opponents shot is short/ lower than expected you can intercept it straight away. Your current preparation makes you very vulnerable to being caught out on flatter clears, which you will encounter as you play better people. The other advantage with having your racket ready like this is it is a lot easier to see where your racket is in relation to the shuttle, so timing jump smashes might become easier.
Also another word of advice, try not to correct everything at once. I would focus on getting a split step going so that you are quicker and able to play the shuttle earlier. In fact you could combine this with getting your racket up. Do some shadow work to the rear court making sure you split, get your racket up as you start to move backwards then shadow a shot, start with a step through first, then a kick through once you get the hang of that, then once you have that right try and practise a few jump smashes within the drill.
See this Peter Rasmussen footwork drill video to see the rear court preparation a little better:
I hope this helps.
may i tell you my thoughts, im not a very good player tho (yet )
- i think your footwork really needs to be polished, it looks like you are a fast and experienced kid who can react and run very fast (but never get taught right footwork) but you would be WAY faster and better if you would learn right footwork and train it, i do think too that you do not use split step most of the time
- i know deception is a big part of badminton and i liked how often you did it, but often at the cost of the point because you made an error - i found that all 3 of you guys tried to make the point too fast with too difficult shots...and therefore made way too many errors
- the games looked like leisure time games...already played 2 hours...wanna play a nice last match for enjoy...pretty relaxed and fast..not concentrated, i did not see serious competition --> take your time when serving..think about the mistakes you made for a second before going on to the next point...and practise the difficult shots in practise games and not in tournament games
maybe you had a bad day and usually hit the many errorshots at a high percentage usually, but since you posted the video i would guess that you felt like your level of play was not too bad compared to what you usually do
edit: i like your jumping, i think you hit the shuttle a tiny bit too late but i would definitely keep jumping..maybe not every single time but in my view it should be one of your strengths, just work on improving angle and diversity
I didn't wacht your entire match but I get the feeling you're not really imposing your game on your opponent. You're not trying to force you're opponent to play your game, instead I get the feeling you're playing along with whatever play your opponent throws at you and hope you can get into it.
You should play to your strenghts more,and 'cloake' you're weaknesses more. Force the other player to play your game and your speed. E.g. your smash lacks power/speed/accuracy/consistentcy. So don't smash so often instead try to outmanouvre you're opponent with drops/net play/disguise (which are I think you're stronger points). Maybe you're not a natural smasher with great smashing power. I know I am not. Hence I try to limit using my smash in singles as often as I can. But when I have to I know my smash has to be consistent and accurate/angled to compensate for the lack of power. You should look at your game more in this way I think.
I like your defense, you seem to react quite quickly.
You've also got good pace oncourt.
It's hard to give spesific tactical or technical advice, but i would say that working on your basic game will benefit you greatly. Good footwork allows you to use the pace you've got to good effect, and safety of shot enables you to stay calm under pressure.
However on a more spesific note:
You should stop flabbing your racquet around when you hit shots in the forecourt, it's not deceptive at all. Keep the movements short and sharp, and learn to do hold and flicks. A quick opponent with good netplay and a good hold and flick is not fun to play at all
just to make it clear: as in any other country of the world, the video shown above is solid D level in switzerland, low C at best...
@topic: the key to playing good singles at your level (and several levels above) is CONSISTENCY!
you have some nice shots, you're quick. but you should really work on being able to play the same shot over and over again without any errors.
your error-rate is so high, that i would only feed you some clears in a match and wait for your mistake.
you certainly have the potential to play much better, so keep working on your consistency (movement and strokes!!) and be more focused on doing the easy things flawless...
In my local area you would be perhaps be a D. Your footwork is off and you are quite slow to get to the shuttle. You did use the clear sometimes, however most of the time you played shots which put you out of position. To improve dont smash so much, make openings with fast clears/drop shots then when you are confident smash at the body, dont smash down the tramlines.

Reader 01 Intro Contd
What makes this long, unruly and eclectic list hang together? Why should the historian who looks at forms of community solidarity in early twentieth century urban spaces enter the same space of dialogue as the teenage hacker of the twenty first century? One provisional answer: because the city space that surrounds us, and its mesh of ways of being, which we at Sarai and at the Waag have reason to regard as the canvas of our curiosities, engagements, affections and disaffections, is a site that exists in more than one temporal location. We live in a mess made of times and spaces where pre-modern, modern and hyper-modern scripts play out their own stories in grand and little theatres in streets and cyber cafés. In the interval between several performances that tell stories about the city, the hacker improvises with the historian. The future and the past play new games in old cities. Sarai is only the meeting place where some of this is beginning to happen. There is ample room here for disagreement, for collaboration, for criticism and for partnership.
While we have tried to divide the contents into thematically arranged sections, very often themes and interests have ended up running into each other. This variety, and the intentional fuzziness of boundaries between forms, practices and themes, is signatory to the inter-disciplinary character of the Sarai Initiative and the range of issues and questions that interest us at Sarai. They also offer a glimpse into the things we are thinking about at present and want to work on in the future. Notwithstanding the variety, an underlying commitment to the renewal of urban public culture and the democratisation of media practices and communication technologies is a common thread that runs through the Reader.
We have discovered in the process of editing this reader that the thematic focus on the 'public domain' has led us naturally to highlight the Free Software Movement, which seeks to free information and software production from proprietary control and situate it squarely within the public domain. We feel that this has significant implications in India and in all other information hungry societies which have low degrees of access to computers and to digital resources. There is an emergent interest in free software in India, but not much by the way of easily accessible materials and information that can help frame a debate around issues of control of information. Further, the current media hype around the messianic role of Information Technology obscures the political economy of the digital divide.
We hope that the first Sarai reader can address some of these issues, and participate in the initiation of a long overdue debate on the culture and political economy of the new media and information technologies in societies and contexts outside Western Europe and North America. We aim to bring to an audience around Sarai, in Delhi, snatches from conversations around us in the wider world, and we want to transmit what all of us are thinking, reading, looking at and arguing about in our space, to the world outside. We have made a special effort to locate contributions from and about places as far apart as Nepal, Australia, Pakistan and Yugoslavia, besides, India, Western Europe and North America in the hope that this marks for us the beginning of a sustained engagement with a truly intercultural new media space.
The patchwork that this collection represents is the result of an e-mail correspondence that has sometimes been more sporadic than it should have been. But both of us (Shuddha@Sarai, CSDS, Delhi and Geert@DeWaag - Society for Old and New Media, Amsterdam) believe that it heralds a sound foundation for the collaborations that SONM and Sarai have entered into and which mark the very inception of Sarai. Now we are an open space, eager for travellers. Welcome.
