Dr. Mirvis is the Editor-in-Chief of this journal and Professor of Radiology, Diagnostic Imaging Department, University of Maryland Medical Center, Baltimore, MD.
It is our department's practice to hold a resident/faculty reunion at the RSNA meeting each year. Having been a department member for 18 years (an old timer by today's standards), I know most of the former residents and staff who attend the reunion. So, it is a very pleasant occasion for me. This past year was not atypical, but after the reunion something was bothering me that I could not quite put my finger on. When all of the obligations of the meeting were behind me, the memory and understanding of what was bothering me began to emerge.
One of my long-time friends and a former resident had approached me at the reunion. He is currently a successful member of one of the two large and dynamic private radiology practices in the Baltimore area. After the usual pleasantries, he chided me about the fact that our university group had attempted some ventures in the traditionally private practice world outside the academic center. The comment roughly indicated that we should stay behind our walls and do what we do best (I guess that means research and teaching). I really did not want to begin a long discussion, given the tone of the evening, but I did point out the challenges of staffing created by the shortage of radiologists and our need to offer people better incentives to join us than those offered by other academic centers or by private practices. He seemed to understand this concern at least, but I could still detect an element of resentment about our tiptoeing outside the walls.
I do not believe this former resident's opinion is unusual. As the economic medical-care pie shrinks and as pressures to obtain reasonable reimbursement for our services rise, there is every reason to look at other approaches to boosting income sources. While most academic departments would love nothing more than to be able to exist on hospital-generated income and pursue their major interests, this has become nearly impossible. To maintain a quality academic practice, there must be adequate staffing for clinical service, teaching, and research. Some support can be derived from grants, but it is "hard to float the boat," as one of my colleagues often notes, without additional outside revenue. Mainly, this income is needed to compete in the current environment as well as to encourage some individuals who may be "on the fence" about their career path to try academics. As noted by Wood et al, 1 residents tend to select academic careers because of the atmosphere, research, teaching, and specialization, while others choose private practice for autonomy, lifestyle, and financial reimbursement. These characteristics are not absolute . Few academicians would refuse a salary increase, while many private-practice radiologists really enjoy teaching and doing some research within their practices.
In an interesting study, Ward et al 2 surveyed private-practice, university, and resident surgeons about a number of issues. They all agreed that the university should train physicians, receive complicated referral cases, and guarantee quality of care in the state; but residents, and to a lesser extent private surgeons, felt far less of a sense of obligation to the teaching university.
We are fortunate to have a good relationship with our private-practice colleagues. They spend some time teaching in the university and have supported our needs in times of critical staffing shortages. In turn, we continue to provide some of the best-trained radiology resident graduates in the nation from whom they can choose to offer practice opportunities. University/academic practices need to and will reach over the walls and offer services when and where there is a need and financial opportunity. The expansion of traditionally insulated academic practices to establish such "outside" venues is difficult, but it can certainly be done with the expertise of the entire department in support. The health and vigor of academic radiology should not be taken lightly by the private-practice sector, for that minority component of radiology creates the quality physicians that will fill our specialty and drives the technologic developments that keep us at the forefront of medicine.

I took a good look around and have found this entire Sheriff's election is all about the changing of the shifts. If it had not been for the change, there would not be all this controversy. Deputies were switched to a ten hour shift to benefit the citizens.What takes place after that can only be described as an attempted mutiny perpetuated by a few disgruntled deputies. It does appear though that a large percentage of them are extremely happy with the ten hour shift but are being pressured by their peers to revolt against their boss. Is this the example we set for our community as a Professional Law Enforcement Agency. The only question is are we going to allow this type of behavior? The citizens of this county spoke very loudly four years go and demanded change from the antiquated Wyatt Earp type Law Enforcement. Citizens of this county, please re-elect Sheriff Deryl Loar. A man with a proven track record of leadership, professionlism, family values and able to make those tough decisions even when they're not popular.

SonicSpike writes with news that two U.S. Senators, Lamar Alexander (R-TN) and Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), have proposed legislation to ban cell phone calls while aboard an airplane. This follows a recent announcement from the FAA increasing the range of electronic gadgets travelers can use while flying, and a vote by the FCC to consider allowing phone calls during flight. However, even as those government agencies work to lift regulations on in-flight technology, the Department of Transportation is pondering a in-flight call ban of its own, saying it might not be "fair" to consumers to have to listen to other passengers talk on the phone throughout a long flight. FCC commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel said, "If we move beyond what we do here today and actually update our rules to allow voice calls on planes we can see a future where our quiet time is monetized and seating in the silent section comes at a premium."
jfruh writes "NSA Director Keith Alexander, testifying before the Senate this week, got weirdly petulant, asking his critics how he was supposed to do his job without collecting metadata on American communications. 'If we can come up with a better way, we ought to put it on the table and argue our way through it,' he said. 'There is no other way that we know of to connect the dots.' He also implied that major U.S. tech companies might have greater capacities than his organizations, and that they should help him out with new ideas."
RobHart writes "Following election promises to create a 'better, cheaper, sooner' National Broadband Network (NBN), the new Australian government has reneged, announcing instead the NBN will cost $12bn more and take four years longer. The critical change is that the new network is based on Telstra's aging and unreliable copper network rather than fiber to the home, as has already been delivered during the NBN roll out to date."
An anonymous reader writes "Peter Eckersley at the EFF reports that the 'App Ops' privacy feature added to Android in 4.3 has been removed as of 4.4.2. The feature allowed users to easily manage the permission settings for installed apps. Thus, users could enjoy the features of whatever app they liked, while preventing the app from, for example, reporting location data. Eckersley writes, 'When asked for comment, Google told us that the feature had only ever been released by accident — that it was experimental, and that it could break some of the apps policed by it. We are suspicious of this explanation, and do not think that it in any way justifies removing the feature rather than improving it.1 The disappearance of App Ops is alarming news for Android users. The fact that they cannot turn off app permissions is a Stygian hole in the Android security model, and a billion people's data is being sucked through. Embarrassingly, it is also one that Apple managed to fix in iOS years ago.'"
An anonymous reader writes "Wired reports that the chat logs between Bradley Manning and Julian Assange that were used as evidence in Manning's trial have made it onto the web, at least briefly. One of those logs contained something very interesting on page 4, which was picked up on by the News of Iceland, which reports, '"Jesus Christ. I think that we have recordings of all phone calls to and from the Icelandic parliament during the past four months". This text can be found in documents that the US military published on its website and is said to be part of the conversations between Julian Assange and Bradley Manning. According to the documents, Assange claims to have phone call recordings from Althingi, the Icelandic parliament, but this is the first time that the existence of such data is mentioned publicly. ... According to Icelandic laws, it is required to inform the person you are speaking with if the phone call is being recorded. Given that the parliament is not violating laws it is clear that Assange or his associates would have to have installed recording devices or wiretaps in the parliament.' — What makes it even more interesting is that Wired also reports in this recent story: Someone's Been Siphoning Data Through a Huge Security Hole in the Internet."
wiredmikey writes "A Ukrainian national, Roman Vega, who pleaded guilty in 2009 to creating a popular online marketplace for selling stolen financial account data has been sentenced to 18 years in prison. Called one of the world's 'most prolific cybercriminals' by the Department of Justice, Vega, 49, will serve significant time in prison for his role in co-founding the notorious website CarderPlanet. In the early 2000s, Vega co-founded and became a high-ranking administrator of the notorious website, which became one of the first and busiest online marketplaces for the sale of stolen financial information, computer hacking services and money laundering. At its height, CarderPlanet had more than 6,000 members and had a hierarchical leadership structure that borrowed its leadership titles from La Cosa Nostra, US authorities said."
First time accepted submitter Austrian Anarchy writes with this story via Reason (and based on a report at Wired) about a maker of physical Bitcoin tokens. Quoting from Reason's take: "Mike Caldwell ran a business called Casascius that printed physical tokens with a bitcoin digital key on it, key hidden behind a tamper proof strip. He'd charge $50 worth of bitcoin to print a bitcoin key you sent him via computer on this token. Cool stuff--a good friend of mine found one sitting unnoticed in her tip jar from an event at which she sold her artisan lamps from 2011 and was naturally delighted given the nearly 1000x increase in value of a bitcoin since then. So, you're making something fun, useful, interesting, harmless--naturally the federal government is very concerned and wants to hobble you. 'Just before Thanksgiving, [Caldwell] received a letter from the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FINCEN, the arm of the Treasury Department that dictates how the nation's anti-money-laundering and financial crime regulations are interpreted. According to FINCEN, Caldwell needs to rethink his business. "They considered my activity to be money transmitting," Caldwell says. And if you want to transmit money, you must first jump through a lot of state and federal regulatory hoops Caldwell hasn't jumped through.'"
rjmarvin writes "The Delhi High Court approved an appeal by Nokia today to unfreeze the company's Indian assets, including the Chennai mobile phone factory set to be transferred to Microsoft as part of its devices and services acquisition. The decision was contingent on Nokia putting $367 million in escrow to go towards its imposed taxes. Nokia lobbied to lift the freeze to avoid holding up the deal or being forced to stay on as a subcontractor, though they're still on the hook for taxes and penalties to the tune of up to $3.4 billion for a financial period dating back to 2006. Microsoft, though, is in the clear."
Qedward writes "Munich's switch to open source software has been successfully completed, with the vast majority of the public administration's users now running its own version of Linux, city officials said today. In one of the premier open source software deployments in Europe, the city migrated from Windows NT to LiMux, its own Linux distribution. LiMux incorporates a fully open source desktop infrastructure. The city also decided to use the Open Document Format (ODF) as a standard, instead of proprietary options. Ten years after the decision to switch, the LiMux project will now go into regular operation, the Munich City council said."
paavo512 writes "For the last decade or so, Estonia has developed a national electronic data exchange layer called X-Road. Is is based on national electronic ID cards and allows creation of common electronic services like founding a company, declaring taxes or e-voting. Every day, over 800,000 enquiries are made via X-Road (the population of Estonia is 1.3M). According to the PM of Estonia, the solution is saving 2% of national GDP annually. The Estonian ID card technology was originally imported from Finland; however, it appears Finns have for 10 years failed to come up with any significant e-services making use of them. So it is now agreed that Estonian X-Road solution will be expanding to Finland as well."
An anonymous reader writes "The Advocate General of the European Court of Justice today issued their opinion that the EU Directive covering the retention of data is incompatible with the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. In an interim ruling in a case taken by the Irish Digital Rights movement, the AG found the limitation on a persons right to privacy imposed by the EU Directive was not properly laid down in law. The ECR has yet to make a formal ruling and is not bound by the AG opinion, however it is unusual for the court not to follow suit."
sciencehabit writes "Three lawsuits filed last week that attempted to achieve 'legal personhood' for four chimpanzees living in New York have been struck down. The suits, brought by the animal rights group the Nonhuman Rights Project (NhRP), targeted two chimps on private property and two in a research lab at Stony Brook University in New York. NhRP says it will now appeal each lawsuit to a higher court, and that it will continue its campaign to grant chimpanzees, dolphins, and other cognitively advanced animals legal personhood nationwide."
An anonymous reader writes "A New Zealand backpacker stripped of all electrical equipment at Auckland airport suggests attending a London talk on cyber-security following the Edward Snowden leaks may be to blame. Samuel Blackman was returning home for Christmas on 11 December from London Heathrow to Auckland via San Francisco when a customs officer at his final destination took the law graduate's two smartphones, iPad, external hard drive and laptop, demanding the passwords for all devices." For a quieter version, see also The New Zealand Herald.
KentuckyFC writes "During the Cold War, the US and the Soviet Union battled on many fronts to demonstrate their superior technical and scientific achievements. While the race to put a human in space and then on the Moon is famous, a much less well-known battlefront was the unconventional science of parapsychology, or psychotronics as the Soviets called it. Now a new review of unconventional research in the Soviet Union reveals the scale of this work for the first time and the cost: as much as $1 billion. The Soviets had programs studying how "human energy" could influence other objects and how this energy could be generated independently of humans using a device called 'cerpan'. The Soviets also had a mind control program similar to the CIA's infamous MKULTRA project. Interestingly, the Soviets included non-local physics in this work, such as the Aharonov-Bohm effect in which an electromagnetic field can influence a particle confined to region where the field strength is zero. And they built a number of devices that exploited the effect, although research in this area appears to have ended in 2003."
PolygamousRanchKid writes "Thousands of German users that have used a porn website to stream shows have received threatening letters from a local law firm demanding €250 ($344) per certain watched clips, Chip.de reports. Apparently, a Swiss-based firm that owns the content hosted by porn site Redtube has tasked a law firm with collecting fines for each of its shows that was streamed online in the region. The law firm has apparently received a go ahead from a local court, and as many as ten thousand warnings may have been set to users, for porn shows watched in August."

Washington's History in a House. |
Welcome! Bigelow House Museum & Information Center 918 Glass Ave, Olympia |
The Bigelow House: Witness to History The Bigelow House Museum is dedicated to preserving and interpreting the early history of Olympia and Washington Territory. It is the oldest residence in Olympia, Washington, and one of the earliest still standing in the Pacific Northwest. Pioneer lawyer and Territorial Legislator Daniel R. Bigelow and his schoolteacher wife Ann Elizabeth White built Bigelow House in the 1850s. The Bigelows were pivotal figures in early Washington history and the struggle for women's rights and public education. The house is a rare surviving example of the Carpenter Gothic style architecture popular in rural America during the mid-1800s and is still surrounded by more than an acre of the family's original land claim. The home displays original documents, artifacts, and furnishings representing 150 years of the family's participation in important causes on the community, state and national levels. |

Distilleries/Tasting Rooms
The distilled spirits produced by Traverse City vintners and microdistillers carry distinctive flavors – from the fruit brandies produced by local wineries (try the cherry eau de vie at Black Star Farms or the delightful Cinq a Sept brandy at Chateau Chantal) to the small-batch vodkas and whiskeys made by Grand Traverse Distillery in Traverse City and Northern Latitudes Distillery in Lake Leelanau.
Grand Traverse Distillery is Michigan's largest microdistillery, and their True North Vodka is distilled from locally grown rye ("the finest rye in the world") and the region's sweet glacial water. They also make a True North flavored with a hint of Traverse City cherries, a wheat vodka made from Michigan wheat, and a 93 proof straight rye whiskey called Ole George.
On the Old Mission Peninsula, Jolly Pumpkin has created a wide menu of "Civilized" spirits at their microdistillery – almost all of them compounded with local ingredients: a vodka made from local Riesling grapes, a cherry vodka called Sakura, a gin made with Old Mission juniper berries, and whiskeys made with local rye and wheat.
Northern Latitudes Distillery creates whiskeys that use locally-grown corn, rye and wheat (though, like the brewers, they still have to import barley from nearby states), vodka produced from Michigan wheat, corn and sugar beets – and one flavored with locally-grown horseradish -- as well as gin-flavored with local juniper and other botanicals.

Pork Kebabs with Honey and Ginger
If you have to work and cook, you can leave this little lot to marinate in the morning and just pop them under the grill when you get home. These are also nice served with a sharp spiced apple sauce.

Equipment |
You will also need 4 wooden bamboo skewers, 12 inches (30 cm) long. Alternatively, use metal skewers. |
This recipe is taken from The Delia Collection: Pork.
First, cut the meat into roughly 1 inch (2.5 cm) cubes, leaving any fat on. Then combine all the ingredients for the marinade together in a large bowl and whisk to blend them thoroughly. Season well with salt and freshly milled black pepper, then add the cubes of meat and stir well to coat in the marinade. Cover and leave in a cool place to marinate for about 6 to 8 hours. If you have wooden skewers, you need to soak them for 30 minutes in hot water before cooking (to prevent them burning).
When you are ready to cook the kebabs, pre-heat the grill to its highest setting. Then, to assemble them, cut each of the onion into sixths through the root. Then thinly slice the stem ginger pieces and thread alternate pieces of meat, onion and preserved ginger on to the skewers. Grill them for 15-20 minutes and don't worry if they look a bit black – they taste fine. Brush occasionally with the marinade and turn the kebabs 2 or 3 times while they are cooking.
When they are cooked, remove the kebabs to a plate and cover to keep warm. Then, make a sauce by adding the 4 fl oz (120 ml) of dry white wine to the grill pan juices, along with any remaining marinade, and boiling over direct heat till syrupy.

Empire High School's Theatre Department, under the direction of Richard Gremel, performs Irving Berlin's "Annie Get Your Gun".
When Buffolo Bill's Wild West Show comes into town, Annie Oakley, the famed sharpshooter, quickly falls in love with the show's star, Frank Butler. After winning a shooting match against Frank Butler, Annie joins the show so she can try and marry Frank. Unfortunately for Annie, Frank wants a more feminine woman and not a tomboy, gun-toting dame. Further, the fact that she can shoot better than Frank makes her his biggest competition. Frank decides to leave his love and join up with the show's biggest rival, Pawnee Bill. In the end, Annie has to do what it takes to win Frank back and merge the two Wild West Shows.
This production stars Jeanne Torres as Annie Oakley and Ryan Cummings as Frank Butler along with an all-star cast of Empire High School Drama Students performing famous songs by composer Irving Berlin like "There's No Business Like Show Business", "They Say It's Wonderful", "You Can't Get a Man With a Gun", and "Anything You Can Do (I Can Do Better)".

When this writer read the following two papers it seemed that in principle the mystery of bipolar disorder was solved. It still seems that way: The primacy of mania: A reconsideration of mood disorders Athanasios Koukopoulos a,*, S. Nassir Ghaemi b a Centro Lucio Bini, 42, Via Crescenzio, 00193 Rome, Italy b Mood Disorders Program, Department of Psychiatry, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, MA, USA Received 6 March 2008; received in revised form 7 July 2008; accepted 13 July 2008 Available online 11 September 2008 Biological Sensitivity to Context Bruce J.

Comorbidity in Bipolar Disorder
Comorbidity in Bipolar Disorder
The central tenet of clinical comorbidity, the occurrence of 2 syndromes in the same patient, presupposes that they are distinct categorical entities. By this definition, 2 or more coexisting syndromes do not negate one another, nor paradoxically does this coexistence negate the potential for one to influence the course, outcome, and treatment response of the other. Isolating a syndrome by characterizing it through a unique pathogenic process allows for diagnostic fidelity even while acknowledging overlapping phenotypes.
Bipolar disorder (BPD) is highly prevalent and heterogeneous. Its increasing complexity is often caused by the presence of comorbid conditions, which have become the rule rather than the exception. Lifetime prevalence of psychiatric comorbidity has been reported in community and clinical studies. Most (95%) of the respondents with BPD in the National Comorbidity Survey met criteria for 3 or more lifetime psychiatric disorders.1 In a Stanley Foundation Bipolar Treatment Outcome Network study of almost 300 patients, 65% met DSM-IV criteria for at least 1 comorbid Axis I disorder.2
Analogous to models in medicine (eg, cardiovascular disease), BPD incorporates psychiatric and medical comorbidities (Table) whose simultaneous treatment is equally pressing to the core mood disturbance.3 Checks and balances must be used to address the distressing comorbid condition (eg, anxiety) whose treatment with an SSRI or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) may catalyze a round of mood cycling in an otherwise stable patient; a greater degree of protection via mood stabilizers may be warranted in such an individual to reduce this possibility.
Overall, the presence of comorbidities in BPD has negative prognostic implications for psychological health and for medical well-being and longevity.4-6 The most common comorbid conditions are reviewed below to help guide the clinician through this diagnostic maze and associated treatment considerations.
The well-established relationship between anxiety symptoms and major depressive disorder usually forges a more complicated course, something that is equally, if not more, characteristic of bipolar depression.7,8 Recent studies suggest that rates of anxiety in bipolar depression tend to exceed those in the general population.1,9,10 In the Systematic Treatment Enhancement Program for Bipolar Disorder (STEP-BD), lifetime prevalence for a comorbid anxiety disorder reached 51.2% while rates for a current anxiety disorder reached 30.5%; comorbid anxiety tended to be more common in patients with bipolar I disorder compared with bipolar II.11
Anxiety may be interwoven into the fabric of syndromic bipolarity, may occur alongside it as a comorbid condition, and may occur in subsyndromal bipolar states as well.12 Patients with BPD are at higher risk for many other anxiety subtypes, including generalized anxiety disorder, simple phobia, social phobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and panic disorder.1,2 Of these, panic disorder appears to have the highest risk of comorbidity. Panic disorder also tends to cosegregate with BPD in families with high rates of BPD.13 Panic disorder and anxiety tend to be particularly manifest in bipolar mixed states, which echoes Emil Kraepelin's description of mixed states as "anxious mania" or "excited depression" whereby the "mood is anxiously despairing."14,15 Mixed states tend to have an early onset and are associated with other risks including suicide and substance abuse.16
There are those of us who feel that the biological linage of bipolar disorders, particularly bipolar II and bipolar NOs with ADHD is very strong when an early onset (by age 21) is present. In support of this is the recognition that many of the positive or unusual features of the genetic basis of ADHD also occur in many bipolar patients. To begin with ADHD is a highly genetic disorder whose biological traits are equally present in both sexes and which from a trait point of view is essentially dominant in a traditional sense. About half of individuals with trait evidences actually become clinically cases of ADHD but confirmation of trait presence emerges in their offspring. Among common trait issues are an all-or-none memory, a strong push towards leadership or or its alternative (essentially social withdrawal.. a so-called leader or loner position, think Bill Clinton for instance), a hyperfocus in areas of interest with a push towards goal completion, an ability to think outside the box with creativity (think Steve Jobs for instance). Energy like other areas is usually bimodal, either high of low. The presence of bipolarity seems to push traited individuals into difficult to treat situations. Personality disorders such as borderline syndromes are not uncommon along with a propensity to develop anxiety difficulties and post-traumatic stress problems (presumably a function of altered fragments of overly embedded memories). One further argument around ADHD traits are whether on the whole they have a positive social value in cultures such as our which emphasizes the individual over the group and values creativity.

Some jokes during our suppertime@ccc
CCC should start our collection of jokes here before we forget.
* ====== * ====== * ====== * ====== *
Many players@ccc are from Malaysia... and sometimes out come some Malaysian jokes when we communicate and/or at our suppertime@ccc.
And here is one...
Have you seen the Made-in-Malaysia car "Kancil"? You know, that very little 600cc car?
Well, Dr M really wanted to sell it to the US, so when Dr M paid a visit to the White House after finishing formal discussions with George Bush, Dr M checks with Bush to find out if there is a way to sell the Kancil in the USA.
After having looked at the brochure, Bush said, "You know, I think this 'KERNCHILL' is too small for us Americans."
Not one who gives up easily, Dr M persisted and finally Bush offered, "Ok, take this number down. This guy is my good buddy and he's also the CEO of the biggest compact car distributor in North America."
Dr M was satisfied with the meeting and returns to Malaysia. The next day he called the number and a lady answered, " TOYS R US, can I help you?"
Hehehe... but for me, I think the Kancil is a better sustainable transport.
Cheers... chris@ccc
Life According to Chinese
Life According to Chinese... Why are we working so hard?
On the very first day of the world, God created the cow.He said to the cow: "Ah Gu (cow), today I have created you! Your job is to go to the field with the farmer all day long. You will provide the energy to pull things! You will also provide milk for people to drink! You are to work all day under the sun! In return, you will only eat grass. For that, you will have a life span of 50 years."
Ah Gu objected. "What... I work all day in the sun and I get only to eat grass! On top of that, I have to give my milk away! This is tough and you want me to live 50 years! I'll take 20 and you can have the remaining 30 years back!"God agreed.
On the next day, God created the dog.He said to the dog. "Ah Kow (dog), I have created you for a purpose. You are to sit all day by the door of your master's house! Should anyone come in, you are to bark at them! In return, you will eat your master's leftovers. I'll give you a life span of 20 years."
Ah Kow objected. "What... I have to sit by the door all day and will need to bark at people, and what do I get... LEFTOVERS... This isn't right, I'll take 10 and you can have the remaining 10 years back!"God agreed again.On the third day, God created the monkey.
He said to the monkey. "Lao Kao (monkey), your job is to entertain people. You will make them laugh, act stupid and make faces! You will also do somersaults and swing on trees to amaze them. In return, you will get to eat bananas and peanuts. For that, I'll give you 20 years to live."
Naturally the monkey objected. "This is ridiculous, I gotta make faces and make people laugh let not even come to the part about the trees and somersaults. Tell you what, I'll give 10 years of my life to thank you for my existence and I'll take 10. What do you think?"God agreed again.
On the forth day, God created humans.God said to the man. "You are my best piece of work, for that, you will only need to sleep, eat, sleep, play, eat, sleep again and do nothing else. You will get to eat all the best things and play with the best toys. All you need to do is enjoy all your life. For this kinda of life, I'll give you 20 years."
Just like the rest, the man objected. "What, all I need to do is relax and enjoy myself and I have only 20 years to live? Tell you what, you've 30 years back from Ah Gu, 10 years from Ah Kow and another 10 from Lao Kao and you probably don't know what to do with all those lifes. Why not I take them all and I'll have 70 years to live?"God being such good natured, agreed with a smile......
And THAT IS WHY..... We eat, sleep, play and enjoy for the first 20 years of our lives when we are growing up. Work like a cow for the next 30 to raise our family. Sit outside the door and bark at people for the next 10 when we are retired. And finally, we make faces and perform monkey tricks to entertain our grandchildren for the final 10 years.

Done anything wild in your life?
Done anything wild in your life?
This was sent to me...
I was at the mall the other day eating at the food court.
I noticed an old man watching a teenager sitting next to him. The teenager had spiked hair in all different colors... green, red, orange, and blue.
The old man kept staring at him.
The teenager would look and find the old man staring every time. When the teenager had enough, he sarcastically asked, "What's the matter, never done anything wild in your life?".
The old man did not bat an eye in his response. "Got drunk once and had *** with a peacock. I was just wondering if you were my son."
Cheers... chris@ccc

Great arete and nubbin adventure. Knobs galore and pockets where they have ripped off all the way up to and interesting crux below the anchor. Shares same 1st bolt with Screaming Yellow Zonkers...careful lowering off.
The stunning Arete between Screaming Yellow Zonkers and Bad Moon Rising.
there has been some bolt replacement at Mesa Verde and Moons no longer shares the same first bolt with Zonkers.
A beautiful line with great climbing on knobs, pockets and the arete.
We pulled one of the anchor bolts from this climb today, thinking "if it's not to be trusted, than it shouldn't even be here to tempt someone." Actually, it screwed right out. You can use the anchors to the left, for Screaming Yellow Zonkers to rappel.
As of July 21st 2102 both MOP and SYZ each have their own anchor. Moons of Pluto is a smith classic. great moves on a sweet arete, a must do!
I'll never forget this one, spicy and delicate on a gorgeous arete. Steep and with clean falls, a good place to push yourself climbing on small features
One of my favorite sport climbs anywhere. Incredibly esthetic.

Having said that, I'm not expecting this to get changed in Book II.
But I'll be sure to bring this issue up, for both of us! when we put together a Book III suggestions wishlist.

Dec. 24-25 - All libraries closed for Christmas.
Crazy Readerz
In this post-apocalyptic world, people have chosen to live one of two ways, as Dwellers who live in pods that protect them from the aether (electrical storms that ravage the earth) or on the outside in tribes facing nature and a hard scrabble existence. Dwellers spend the majority of their life traveling virtual realms and when Aria is cast out of the Reverie pod accused of mayhem and murder, it is an almost certain death sentence. Aria's one hope is to find her mother who is working in another pod, Bliss, and prove her innocence.
Perry, a member of the Tides tribe, is heading toward Reverie, to rescue his nephew who was taken by Dwellers when he finds Aria in the desert near death. He shares his food and water and they discover that they can help each other. He can help Aria stay alive and find her mother. Aria's knowledge of the pods can help him get his nephew back. It's an uneasy alliance born from need and desperation rather than respect because they both have been raised to fear and hate the other's way of life and people.

We'll be making zombie felties and watching a related movie. The movie is a remake of a 1984 short film of the same name (which traumatized me when I saw it as a kid), about a boy and his dog, Sparky. The new version was an Academy Award nominee for Best Animated Feature. Can you guess the title?
Will Henry is the assistant to Dr. Warthrop, a monstrumologist who studies those dark creatures who haunt our nightmares. When a strange corpse is delivered to their doorstep Will Henry and Dr. Warthrop discover and attempt to destroy a pod of Anthropophagi living in their home town. Warning! This book is not for the easily scared (like me).
At last! The long wait is over! The second book, following Cinder, in The Lunar Chronicles is here and it does not disappoint! Meyer has a really accessible writing style and this novel is fast paced with engaging characters. There's also a nice re-imagining of the Little Red Riding Hood tale just for good measure.
In this installment Cinder's trying to break out of prison--even though if she succeeds, she'll be the Commonwealth's most wanted fugitive. Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit's grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn't know about her grandmother or the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother's whereabouts, she is loath to trust the stranger, but is inexplicably drawn to him, and he to her. As Scarlet and Wolf unravel one mystery, they encounter another when they meet Cinder. Now, all of them must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen Levana, who will do anything for the handsome Prince Kai to become her husband, her king, her prisoner.
Scarlet has a long hold list but it is well worth the wait. It is also one of our Lucky Day titles so check the library when you are here and see if you get lucky!
Trapped inside a chain superstore by an apocalyptic sequence of natural and human disasters, six high school kids from various popular and unpopular social groups struggle for survival while protecting a group of younger children.
Ok. Look. By the middle of the second page I was in it to win it with this book. Not sure if it's the locality of the story (Colorado Springs), if it's the ages of the characters (first graders through high school) or if it is the crazy-non-stop-tell-me-this-can-not-ever-happen-here--WHAT!?-it-might-happen-next-week-OMG! aspect that made Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne so riveting for me, but… HOLY COW.
I'll tell you what, though… my new end of the world survival plan includes a Super Target now. 'Nuff said.
Set in the not-too-distant future, Robopocalypse describes a world in which robots have made our lives a lot easier – they fight our wars, clean our homes, and drive our cars. Then, under the control of a childlike yet sinister artificial intelligence called Archos, the robots turn against humanity in a terrifying and bloody attack known as Zero Hour. A group of international survivors – including a Japanese scientist, a London hacker, and a cop on an Oklahoma Indian reservation – stage an inventive counterattack in this action-packed thriller. The author, Daniel H. Wilson, has a PhD in robotics, so the story is full of astonishing technical detail. His latest novel, Amped, is also available. Fans of World War Z and other dystopian thrillers should give this one a try!

The innuPREP Blood DNA Midi Kit - IP has been optimized for automated extraction of DNA from whole blood (sample size = up to 2.0 ml). The first step is to selectively digest the erythrocytes and pellet the nucleated blood cells. These are then processed in an additional lysis step (stable PLP Lysis Tubes included). The reaction vessels are ready-to-use and contain all of the necessary lysis reagents, thereby eliminating the need to add Lysis Solution and Proteinase K separately. All subsequent steps, such as binding the DNA to magnetic particles and washing and eluting the DNA, proceed automatically within the InnuPure® C12. No additional consumables or reagents are required, as the kit contains all of the buffers, solutions, tips and plastic items needed for extracting the DNA.

Favorite R Name: Poll: Part 2
I previously made a thread stating my favorite R names for boys and asking for opinions.
These were the names on the list:
Rafferty (floodtide, abundance, prosperity)
Rainier (wise army))
Raphael (God has healed)
Raymond (wise protector)
Roscoe (deer forest)
Rudolph (famous wolf)
Rune (secret)
Rupert (bright fame)
I've been able to eliminate:
Raymond (because of: Everybody loves Raymond)
Rudolph (because of: the Reindeer)
Rune (because: it's apparently a fathers name)
Stil in the Poll:
Rafferty (jovial and happy. It would be strong young and old.)
Rainier (ADORE. I feel strength in Rainier.)
Raphael (I'm not that religious. It feels perhaps too close to God.)
Roscoe (It doesn't feel substantial enough at times. Reminds me of Costco.)
Rupert (It feels like the weaker Robert.)
These are all my opinions and views on the names. My views have been changing more recently because of the comments from everyone. Please don't be offended.
Please vote again. Thanks.Last edited by irmgard+theodorian; May 27th, 2013 at 06:48 PM.

OI treatments are designed to prevent or control symptoms and vary from person to person. Early intervention is important to ensure optimal quality of life and outcomes. Treatment for OI and its related symptoms may include:
Physical therapy aims to maintain functioning in as many aspects of life as possible. A usual program combines muscle strengthening with aerobic conditioning. Many children with OI have delayed motor skills because their muscles are weak. A physical rehabilitation program can include strengthening of deltoids, biceps, and important lower muscles, such as the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and trunk extensors. When these muscles are strong, children can lift their arms and legs against the pull of gravity and get around independently.1
For some people with OI, wearing braces on the legs can provide support for weak muscles, decrease pain, and keep joints properly aligned. Braces can allow people to get around and function more easily.
Some people with OI undergo surgery to correct bone deformities, including scoliosis and basilar invagination. A common surgical procedure for OI patients, "rodding," is the placement of metal rods in the long bones of the legs. This strengthens them and helps prevent fractures. Some rods get longer as the legs grow. But they also can work their way out of the bone.1 Surgery can also be performed to improve hearing loss.
Bisphosphonates (pronounced bis-FOS-foh-neyts) are drugs used to treat osteoporosis. They also are useful for OI, especially in children. These drugs do not build new bone, but they slow the loss of existing bone. They have been shown to reduce fractures and relieve bone pain.2
Other treatments for related conditions include:

The Utah Supreme Court has thrown out Weber County's anti-gang injunction forbidding members of the Trece gang from associating with each other in public.
In a ruling issued Friday, the court found that the county did not properly serve summons to members of the gang. Five members of the gang were personally served with the summons and complaint, but the court ruled that the county never explained how those members were the equivalent of "officers" or "agents" of the organization, as required by law.
The injunction, which was granted preliminarily in September 2010 and became permanent on Aug. 20, is intended to curb gang activity in Ogden. Weber County prosecutors call the gang a nuisance and say the injunction is appropriate.
The injunction prohibited identified gang members from associating with each other in public, possessing weapons or graffiti tools and sets an 11 p.m. curfew, among other restrictions.
Some members of the gang challenged the injunction, claiming it denied their constitutional right to associate.
But the Supreme Court did not address the injunction's constitutionality. It instead voided the injunction because of the county's procedure of trying to put the gang on notice.
"This isn't a sweeping civil rights victory for Ogden Trece or a finding that their rights were even violated at all," said Deputy Weber County Attorney Branden Miles. "It's a technical decision on a rule of civil procedure."
To properly serve an "unincorporated association," such as a gang, the county is required to personally deliver a copy of the summons and complaint to "an officer or managing or general agent" — or the equivalent — of the gang.
A Trece member, Duane Dreamer, had testified that a management structure does exist in the gang, with "shot-callers" giving orders to other members. But the court found that the county never established whether the five members served were "shot callers" or whether the "shot callers" were the equivalent of an "officer" or an "agent."
"Service on mere members … is inadequate," the opinion states.

A district judge also allowed the county to serve the gang by publicizing the summons and complaint in a newspaper. But the Supreme Court ruled that type of notification should be a last resort, used only after a diligent effort to identify and serve an officer or agent.
"The county simply relies on its bald assertion that Trece has no known management structure" — despite presenting Dreamer's testimony that "shot-callers" exist in the gang, the court ruled.
Attorney Michael Studebaker, who defended one of the accused Trece members, said the victory was not a small matter of procedure.
"The reason you have to serve each person is that they have to be able to come in and defend themselves," Studebaker said.
In a press statement, the ACLU of Utah said Weber County's tactics amounted to "binding hundreds of individuals without having to name any of them."
"We are thrilled that the Court vacated this misguided, overbroad, and constitutionally suspect law enforcement tactic and recognized that the process Weber County used to obtain the injunction was fundamentally flawed," said David Reymann, a cooperating attorney with the ACLU of Utah. "The constitution demands that parties whose rights will be affected must be given a meaningful day in court, and that simply did not happen."
Miles said the county plans to re-serve a summons with more documentation showing the obstacles to identifying the gang's officers.
"We couldn't really identify a management structure because it was so fluid," said Jon Greiner, who was Ogden police chief when the injunction was created in 2010.
Even if it were stable, members aren't likely to name names, Miles said.

In this case, when the motor stopped, it would freewheel, so it wasn't a big deal. With a dd, you'd get a bit of unexpected "regen brake effect" so it might take a bit of getting used to. I doubt it would toss you over the bars though.
I just think that you do still want some kind of warning that it's about to happen. Perhaps a wire still needs to exit the motor, so you can still have a temp readout.
Alan B wrote:No Wire Motor Temperature Measurement Techniques
1) make a circuit that goes in the motor that modulates the current the hall circuit draws based on motor temperature. Sense this current in the +5 lead with an external circuit. A simpler version could use a thermal switch and resistor to make the hall circuit draw more current, and detect this change to give a simple "overtemperature" output.
transmit the temperature information with RF

Alan B wrote:... Can we get one more very small conductor out of the motor? ...
Alan B wrote:...
If we want to keep the electronics in the motor to a minimum the RF method is probably not a great choice. The temperature near the axle should be lower than near the windings so I would put electronics near there, the sensor would go on the windings to see the max temperature.
full-throttle wrote:What he's saying is: the Halls consume 1mA (just for example) normally, when the thermal switch trips it could add a resistor across the power rail adding another 1mA.
icecube57 wrote:How come we cant use a thermal breaker like the ones used in nicad packs to just kill the whole 5v. It would break the connection and kill power to to the motor and to restore power would require the motor to cool down.
Having a breaker thats around 120C-150c. This would leave the bike dead in the water but by you pulling the signal down with the resistor it seemed kinda harsh and abrupt .... have u rode with this implementation yet?
Alan B wrote:If you connect the thermistor inside the motor in series with the power lead to the hall sensors, where can you measure the voltage at the node? The node you want to measure is inside the motor, no wires from that node leave the motor. The regulated 5V line coming from the controller should not be affected by this thermistor, it is a regulated voltage.

i'd rather add an extra tiny wire, going to the CA, with a neat little display of the temp, with programmable treshold and alarm ? or why not, pulling down the amps automatically
i don't remember seeing much CA programming on the forum, is it possible at all ? there would be other things to add to that little box...
