Rampage's Last Stand: Respecting The Charisma Of Quinton JacksonEd The Sports Fan, MMA — By Eddie Maisonet, III on November 8, 2012 at 3:17 pm
Late on Wednesday an announcement was released stating that Quinton "Rampage" Jackson would take place in his last UFC event of his career. In UFC on FOX 6 in Chicago, Rampage's Last Stand will commence:
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and fast-rising contender Glover Teixeira have agreed to fight Jan. 26 in Chicago, the promotion announced Wednesday night on its website. Jackson (32-10) and Teixeira (19-2) were originally scheduled to meet on Oct. 13 at UFC 153 in Rio de Janeiro, but an injury forced Jackson to withdraw from the bout. The fight with Teixeira will be Jackson's last under his current UFC contract. Jackson has vowed not to re-sign with the promotion. The bout is part of UFC on Fox 6, which will be held at United Center.
Jackson's relationship with UFC has been strained for a while. He and Teixeira exchanged harsh words last month. Jackson says he does not hold animosity toward anyone but promises to punish Teixeira during their January fight. "Outside the cage, I hate no one. Life is too short for that," Jackson said Wednesday on Twitter. "Inside the cage, my job is to destroy. Glover is done on Jan. 26 in Chicago."
No one would ever try and make the case that Rampage is one of the best UFC fighters of all time, although he has beaten many of the all-time greats at light heavyweight — ask Chuck Liddell. Yet, from always being a great soundbite, to pursuing an acting career as the next evolution of B.A. Baracus , to having beef with Rashad Evans, a.k.a., "IT'S GON BE SOME BLACK ON BLACK CRIME!" (throws the mic down), and flirting with woman any chance he could, you always knew that Rampage was out here to have fun, entertain us, and try to knock someone's head off any chance he got.
Plus, this gives me one more reason to show you one of the greatest interviews of all time. "YOU A BETA? I'M AN ALPHA! ARE YOU THE ALPHA OF YOUR LITTER? I'M THE ALPHA OF MY LITTER!"
All hail Quinton Ramone "Rampage" Jackson. Best of luck to you in Chicago on January 26th.Tags: MMA, Rampage Jackson, UFC
Best of luck to both Rampage and the UFC. Five years ago, Rampage was a headliner among many headliners that the UFC had- Chuck, Rashad, BJ Penn, Forrest Griffin to name a few. Now we have two unbeaten fighters one of which has been criticized for his disinterest in fights, Anderson Silva, and the other who was heavily criticized for not fighting at all, Jon "Bones" Jones. GSP- Silva lurks in the future, but I wonder if the UFC can keep trending upwards without the charismatic Jackson.
Either way, you know Rampage will stay in the spotlight in some fashion.

The 10th-grader selected her favorite color. It was a very simple task that she and most young people have probably done countless times before. However, this time, the stakes were never higher. She was not choosing a color for a blouse, a cell phone case or curtains for her bedroom. Instead, she was selecting a pill from a menagerie of narcotics that her peers had brought to a "pharm party" – an alarming and frightening phenomenon that's been making a comeback among teenagers throughout Long Island.
After a long, grueling night of reports given by experts on local airport flights, Dave Siewert and Robert Grotell, the residents of the areas affected by extreme airplane and helicopter noise were not very encouraged.
The members of the Town Village Aircraft Safety and Noise Abatement Committee (TVASNAC), at a previous meeting, asked Siewert, who is in charge of John F. Kennedy (JFK) airport tower operations, to collect information on runway operations and selections for a 30-day period.
An empty seat was nowhere in sight as residents and well-wishers packed the boardroom at village hall last Thursday evening to watch members of the Garden City Fire Department be sworn into office. However, the real fireworks ignited after the members of the Garden City Board of Trustees attempted to resolve the controversy surrounding the mayor's annual appointments.
The meeting kicked off with Mayor Donald Brudie reading a statement regarding the annual committee appointments, which were previously voted down by the majority of board members in a 5-to-3 vote on Monday, April 2.
Despite a challenging school budget season, some positive news for taxpayers was announced at the most recent Garden City Board of Education on Tuesday, April l7. After the board unanimously approved a contract renegotiation with the Garden City Teacher's Association (GCTA), School Board President Colleen Foley announced the district will save a total of approximately $675,000 and the projected tax levy will be lowered to 3.54 percent (with STAR).
At the start of the meeting, Foley read the terms of the memorandum of agreement with the GCTA, the teacher's bargaining unit. Foley maintained that the settlement of the teachers' contract allows the board of education to maintain its focus on the educational mission of the district instead of shifting attention to a potentially lengthy and disruptive negotiation process.
More than 100 firefighters from 10 local fire departments responded to the call kat 11 a.m. at one of the condo units under construction on Stewart Avenue. According to the Nassau County Police, one firefighter was taken to the hospital with a shoulder injury and was released.
With an already successful career in theater in Chicago, Redman broke into the television and film industry acting in Steven Soderbergh's Contagion, and producing the independent film The Wise Kids.
After residents watched several board of trustees take the oath of office last week, many were stunned to also observe the growing public rift that played out between Mayor Donald Brudie and five members of the Garden City Board of Trustees during the 2012 annual organizational meeting at Village Hall.
The tension surfaced on several issues but the true catalyst was the announcement of the mayor's annual appointments. Brudie read off the list of trustees appointed to various committees: fire commissioner, John Watras; commissioner of public works, Nicholas Episcopia; commissioner of finance, Andrew Cavanaugh; commissioner of building and planning, Brian Daughney; and chairman of the environmental advisory board, Laurence Quinn.
Thousands of spectators came out to enjoy the 57th Annual Easter Vintage Car Parade on Sunday, an event hosted by the Garden City Chamber of Commerce.
The car show that preceded the parade proved to be entertaining for all ages. Kids danced to the beat of the Banjo Rascals ragtime music, as car enthusiasts shared their passion with the crowds. A colorful array of classic cars - a number of them adorned with decorations from Easter eggs to Easter bunnies - filled the lot this year. Some drivers and passengers along the parade route wore their Easter hats for the celebration.
The 57th annual Easter Sunday Vintage Car Parade will step off this Sunday, April 24 at 1 p.m. from 10th Street on Franklin Avenue. The procession, led by a line of spectacular antique and classic cars, the Kiwanis Easter Bunnies and Kingsley Bear, will head south on Franklin Avenue, then west on Seventh Street where it will disperse at Hilton Avenue.
At the most recent Garden City School Board meeting, School Board President Colleen Foley announced that with the help of Trustee Angela Heineman, the board drafted a letter that was sent to local legislators Senator Kemp Hannon, and Assemblymen Edward Ra and Thomas McKevitt requesting that Garden City's state aid be increased to equal that of comparative districts.
Trustee Tom Pinou, read the letter to the audience stating that Garden City schools (like many schools on Long Island) rank among the best in the nation. "In order to preserve and continuously improve the educational programs that are not only valued by the community, but also used as models for other districts, our fellow residents have supported school budget increases to make up for shortfalls in state funding," said Pinou.

HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV) - Scary eye contacts may complete your costume, but they're putting your vision at risk.
Contact lenses are regulated by the FDA as medical devices and can't be sold whether for cosmetic reasons or vision correction without a prescription from a licensed professional.
These tiny accessories can cause a lot of damage.
Optometrist Greg Marrow sells a lot of color contacts for cosmetic reasons.
He said they are a medical device, much like a pace maker, "If they aren't taken care of, if they aren't fit properly and worn properly, then there's a good chance that something's going to come back and bite you, and it could be in terms of an infection, an inflammation, or something as serious as an ulcer."
When buying these Halloween contacts without seeing a doctor, you put yourself at a major risk.
"A dry lens, one that hasn't been properly stored, can cause fungal infections, bacterial infections, so there's not even just the fit that's the problem." said Marrow, "These scary contacts are available at places as simple as a local gas station, without a prescription, making them illegal."
A lot of companies that are making lenses overseas are getting them approved by the FDA: the materials haven't been approved, the plastics are sub-par, and the dyes are not meant to be inside the eye.
Marrow said unfortunately this kind of eye-wear is all too common.
28 percent of lenses that are bought online or in novelty shops without prescriptions are illegal.
$20 for illegal contacts may turn into $2,000 for vision correction.
Marrow also said some of the lenses are alerting for Homeland Security.
An operation called Double Vision has investigators trying to get a hold of counterfeit and illegal contacts.
However, there is a safe option, colored contacts that are prescribed by doctors.

I think this happens to us all... and we all react pretty much the same way
For me thou, aftwer the rage subsides and I find myself reworking aaaaallllll the stuff I've already done, I've noticed that somehow the second time turns out better than the first, I suppose this is because memory is still fresh and I get to improve/polish those little parts I wasn't very happy with but had already done so would not get too deep/back into it. So, in a way, crashing is not always too bad a thing to happen.
Cheers to crashing and buying more ram for Photoshop to devour! :raises the mug:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal agencies will be closed Monday in Washington as the region continues to dig out from a weekend storm that dumped more than two feet of snow in the nation's capital.
Spokeswoman Sedelta Verble says the Office of Personnel Management made the decision to close around 5 p.m. Sunday. Federal workers were told to stay home because of safety reasons.
The decision affects some 230,000 government employees who work inside the Washington Beltway. It costs the government roughly $100 million to close for the day.
Essential services will continue, and emergency employees were expected to report to work.
The storm has grounded planes and brought trains and buses to a standstill, leaving thousands of travelers stranded. Hundreds of thousands were still without power.

Full Disclosure

For whoever didn't hear, there is a Macintosh trojan in-the-wild being
dropped, infecting mac users.
Yes, it is being done by a regular online gang--itw--it is not yet another
proof of concept. The same gang infects Windows machines as well, just
that now they also target macs.
This means one thing: Apple's day has finally come and Apple users are
going to get hit hard. All those unpatched vulnerabilities from years past
are going to bite them in the behind.
I can sum it up in one sentence: OS X is the new Windows 98. Investing in
security ONLY as a last resort losses money, but everyone has to learn it
for themselves.

The Youth America Grand Prix was formed in 2000 as a non-profit educational organization in order to support and develop world-class dancers from the ages 9 to 19, of all backgrounds and styles of leotards. YAGP aims to provide educational opportunities and scholarships to the world's leading dance schools for young dancers as a global network of resources and opportunities which connect students, teachers, schools and dance companies.
YAGP has been known to provide students with top-quality education and training from the directors and faculties of some of the world's foremost companies, such as Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, American Ballet Theatre, New York City Ballet and Paris Opera Ballet. As a result, YAGP refers to itself as the "internet of the dance world", working to maintain and extend the dance network of the United States, and provide a multitude of prospects for the next generation of dancers, encouraging more to pull on their practice tights and engage with ballet.
Each year, YAGP conducts 12 regional semi-finals competitions throughout the US, and an additional 4 international competitions in Brazil, Mexico, France and Japan. Each season culminates in a week-long 'New York City Finals', where only around 500 of the 5000 hopefuls will compete for scholarships and professional job contracts offered. The dancers are renowned for representing 30 different countries on 5 continents, emphasising the sheer expanse of YAGP in the dance world, and just how prestigious the organisation has become since its inception.
First Position
First Position is a documentary film which focuses on seven young, international dance students preparing for the competition, working to showcase the exceptional talents of the dancers rather than focusing on the controversy of ballet competitions and the pressure they create for young people. Director Bess Kargman was inspired to create something that challenged the stereotypes of ballet and highlighted the sheer social and economic diversity of the industry. In choosing the candidates, Kargman felt it was imperative to feature students who would hold audiences' attentions regardless of their performances throughout the competition, and – for example – the sacrifices made to facilitate ballet training such as parents making tutus and other costumes in order to save as much money as possible.
It is clear that the YAGP is one of the largest, most celebrated and influential dance competitions, presenting young dancers and their pointe shoes with the potential to truly succeed, with a fantastic opportunity in their first steps towards achieving their dance dreams.

With the news that Hisashi Iwakuma will be out about 4-6 weeks due to a strained tendon, now comes news that highly touted Seattle Mariners pitcher Taijuan Walker will be limited at the onset of spring training. Bob Dutton of the Tacoma News-Tribune tweets that Walker is experiencing "minor shoulder soreness". Dutton notes that M's skipper Lloyd McClendon relayed this information.
With the revamp the Mariners have experienced this offseason, the one area that received the least talk was that of the starting pitching. Easy to imagine why when you have Felix Hernandez, Iwakuma and Walker within the ranks, but this news cannot be what Mariners fans want to hear. The M's may have to amp up talks with free agent pitchers Ervin Santana and/or Ubaldo Jimenez just to be on the safe side. GM Jack Zduriencik has previously stated that he would like to add more arms. Not sure he was wanting to go out and add another big money deal, but his hand may be forced.
As we sit, as provided by MLB Depth Charts, the M's have a potential starting rotation of King Felix, Scott Baker, Taijuan Walker, James Paxton and Erasmo Ramirez. Not as formidable without Iwakuma, that's for sure. And shoulder issues can lead to bigger issues down the road if not properly addressed.
But Dutton adds a tweet that states the Mariners are not "overly concerned" regarding Walker's situation. Only a session or two behind.
Walker made three starts for the Mariners last season compiling a 1-0 record, 3.60 ERA and 1.000 WHIP in three starts (15 IP). He is currently MLB Pipeline's #6 overall prospect and the site's #2 RHP prospect.

The rich Seafood Paella that you saw Andi make on our first episode of FOR SHARING is quite easy to make. Now, you might have heard that preparing paella is quite a chore, but it's really very simple! Check out the recipe here:
Seafood Paella
First, we make the broth. Combine the stock, saffron, and wine in a saucepan.
Now we work on the sofrito, which is the tomato mixture that helps give the paella its color.
Heat the olive oil in a paella pan. Sauté peppers, add garlic, paprika and tomatoes, sautéing in between to release their aroma.
Toss the rice in the sofrito and add parsley and bay leaves.
Add the hot broth and simmer until the liquid reduces. Paella should have just enough liquid to cook rice, but not be soupy.
While the broth is reducing, sauté the seafood until almost cooked.
Arrange the seafood on top of the paella.
Transfer to a pre-heated oven (180 degrees Celsius) and bake uncovered for 10-12 minutes, or until rice is almost cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Garlic Aioli
Mash the garlic with the salt. Combine with the egg yolks, vinegar, and lemon juice.
Whisk, gradually adding oil a drop at a time, whisking constantly. You can add more oil until the mixture begins to look like mayonnaise.
Assembling the Seafood Paella Dish
Remove paella from oven, cover loosely, and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve with the garlic aioli and lemon wedges on the side.
ไม่รู้คือไร แต่น่ากินดี #อาหารยามดึก
I'm crying.
I refuse to make paella any other way besides my moms recipe.
OK sweet
Not how I make my pallea but close …. I'm starving at 10:40… no bueno

As you can see from today's sneak shots, she is tall with long blonde hair, a slim, toned, snow white body and a winning smile that lights her beautiful features. She is open minded and totally hip in her approach to nudity: a perfect new member of the new nude family.
We took Lezhan down to the ocean. She stepped straight out of clothes without having to be asked, always a good sign, and stretched out on a large rock like a lazy lizard. There were a couple of hikers making their way along the beach and got the surprise of their lives when they caught us in the middle of the shoot, a scene that put a smile on all their faces and a swelling in their safari shorts.
Other that that, Luba and I are having a great time enjoying the incredible scenery, pumping night life and easy going lifestyle. Tomorrow I have one of the cutest girls I have ever met scheduled for a session.

Security Basics
mailing list archives
On Thu, Feb 14, 2013 at 06:26:29AM PST, Michael Peppard spake thusly:
The scan is a stopgap for killing the functionality of the virus and to get
information on the virus, it's not the first or last line of defence.
So if the antivirus does not detect anything, what is your next step?
If the virus makes it past the antivirus, the antivirus has to be reinstalled
at a minimum. If the virus is unknown or has a rootkit which all your
antivirus/rootkit tools are incapable of getting rid of then the machine has
to be rebuilt off a clone for that type of desktop or server.
I would say the machine has to be reinstalled. And I always recommend reinstall
regardless of whether the AV says it has "cleaned" the machine.
Why bother trying to save the machine? Because endusers get fussy when they
can't get kitten emails from their friends all day.
What's more important? The end-users kittens or the security of the enterprise?
If your execs don't understand and support you on this you are sunk anyway.

Judging Others: A Closer Look at Matthew 7:1
- Monday, June 18, 2012
Editor's note: The following is an excerpt from Chapter 2 of Eric J. Bargerhuff's new book, The Most Misused Verses in the Bible: Surprising Ways God's Word is Misunderstood (Bethany House Publishers, 2012).
Chapter 2
Judging Others
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged."
—Matthew 7:1 niv 1984
It is a phrase that has been used countlesss times during contentious conversations or in defensive moments when someone is confronted about their behavior: "Do not judge, or you too will be judged." These famous words from Jesus are recited by many but profoundly misunderstood. One could easily argue that Matthew 7:1 is by far the most frequently misapplied verse in the entire Bible, used and abused by both Christians and non-Christians alike.
Those who mishandle this verse often use it as a "shield for sin," a barrier to keep others at bay, allowing them to justify living as they please without any regard for moral boundaries or accountability. Their objections sound like this: "Aren't we all sinners? What gives us the right to make moral judgments about someone else? Isn't that God's job?"
However, when we take a closer look at the context of Matthew 7 and the teachings of the rest of Scripture, it is clear that this verse cannot be used to substantiate unrestrained moral freedom, autonomy, and independence. This was not Jesus' intent. He was not advocating a hands-off approach to moral accountability, refusing to allow anyone to make moral judgments in any sense.
Quite the opposite, Jesus was explicitly rebuking the hypocrisy of the Pharisees, who were quick to see the sins of others but were blind and unwilling to hold themselves accountable to the same standard they were imposing on everyone else. We'll unpack this further in a moment.
But first, let's zero in on Matthew 7:1. It is found in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, the place in the Bible where Jesus teaches what it means to live faithfully as a committed follower of Christ, one who pursues holiness out of reverence for God. Jesus is proclaiming a high moral standard that is consistent with what it means to live as a citizen of the kingdom of God.
In other words, those who repent and place their faith and trust in Jesus alone for their salvation become "children of God," are adopted into God's family, and become members of the spiritual kingdom he has established on earth. Believers who live in this kingdom are called to live differently, and Jesus is explaining what that looks like in a very practical sense. His words are not hard to understand as he sets up a strong moral ethic that reflects what it means to love God with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself. It is here that Jesus addresses the issue of hypocrisy. For he says:
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, "Let me take the speck out of your eye," when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. Matthew 7:1-5 niv 1984)
I can't but wonder if Jesus was looking right at the Pharisees when he said this. Many times throughout the Gospels, Jesus rebukes the Pharisees for their blatant hypocrisy and impossible man-made standards. They were notorious for condemning the shortcomings of others when all the while they were the ones who stood condemned because they were doing the very same things.

Shut down your practice to shut down parasites
Getting your team involved is an important step in educating clients about parasites. Closing your doors for a few hours might be the best way to initiate this training.
While parasite prevention might be second nature to you, your team members might not be as comfortable with the concept. And if they're not well-versed in your parasitology program, can you really expect your clients to get on board? Probably not, says Dr. Julie Clark-Blount, co-owner of Laurel Oaks Animal Hospital in Kingsland, Ga. And she knows that training is all about constant reinforcement, not just an occasional meeting here and there.
So at Laurel Oaks Animal Hospital, Dr. Clark-Blount holds mandatory staff meetings each Wednesday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. to discuss a litany of important issues—one of the most important being parasite prevention. Team members take quizzes or discuss scenarios to learn better communication strategies and find new ways to connect with clients.The meetings help team members understand, for example, that client errors in application often lead to the failure of preventive products on their pets. Dr. Clark-Blount helps the team find consistent, unified ways to help clients correct these errors—and avoid making them in the future. "The meetings are a good way to keep people on the ball and keep their minds working," Dr. Clark-Blount says. "If all team members have input into how we communicate with clients, they feel more confident about what they'll say."
And that confidence is key to getting the practice's message on parasite prevention across, Dr. Clark-Blount says. "We go over the information until it's like tying your shoes so the staff is confident enough to address it with clients," she says. "Quizzes and tests have made it everyday knowledge for our team members."

Jack Wilshere has no doubt that Arsene Wenger is the best man for the Arsenal job and says the Frenchman deserves huge credit for transforming the club.
Wenger's position has come under scrutiny following one of the most testing spells of his 16 seasons at the helm.
But Wilshere, who is in talks to sign a contract extension at the Emirates, says Wenger has been a huge influence on his career as well as the club as a whole.
"For me, there is no question he is the right man. You cannot start questioning him because we have had a few bad results. The players have to look at themselves," Wilshere told Sky Sports.
"Every year he has been in the Champions League and there is no other manager who has done that. He has built a legacy at this club. He changed everything from when he came in 15-16 years ago. He brought the Total Football, if you like, to Arsenal - the passing game.
"He has also been great for me, has shown great faith in me from when I was young. He stuck with me when I was injured and has still stuck by me."

Am I missing something?
Hmm. Well, in the Unix spirit of things, maybe this is just meant to serve as a filter for other programs. Given a pair of input units, you can get it to produce regular, machine readable output:
4:05:12pm :chris% units feet meters * 0.3048 / 3.2808399 4:05:22pm :chris% units years seconds * 31556926 / 3.1688765e-08 4:05:30pm :chris% units liters gallons * 0.26417205 / 3.7854118 4:05:49pm :chris%Maybe you could mess around with those result lines to do a conversion. For example, something like: "units [from] [to] | head -1" gives you your mathematical operator (whichever of multiplication or division, and the number to calculate against). You could then embed this within "printf" or (more flexibly) some Sed, Awk, or Perl code.
In any event, I think you're right -- this doesn't seem to be an all-purpose tool for making conversions so much as the raw engine for one, but like an engine with no wheels, that's not very useful without quite a bit of extra work. Too bad.
On the brighter side, if you *do* want to extend it, it looks like you can add more conversions to the data file: /usr/share/misc/units.lib. I don't totally understand the format, but it looks like you should be able to go in (as root) and add, if nothing else, the values for fahrenheit & celcius conversions. Considering a lot of the other ones in there (e.g. kelvin), I'm surprised that those two were left out. Maybe it's the proverbial "exercise left to the reader".....

The "secular" anniversary was a few weeks ago, but today, Erev Yom Kippur, is our Hebrew Cancerversary. A year ago, we started this insane chapter, this chapter that refuses to end.
So here we are, a year later. And everything has changed, but nothing is different. This is a recurring theme in our lives. Adi is still Adi, but there is so much to who he is, so much that makes Adi Adi….
Adi has matured so much this year. Every day, people come into his room and examine him and touch him and ask him questions and poke him and listen to him breathe. He has to move carefully so he doesn't pull out his various lines. He had to get used to his bald head, and then rediscover his hair and eyebrows and eyelashes -- and then lose them again. He has to go for x-rays and CTs and intrathecals on days when he just wants to sleep. He has to fast, to drink contrast dye, to eat specific foods and avoid others. HE HAS A STOMA. He can't just take a shower; he first has to have his PICC-line wrapped in cling-wrap, his stoma bag emptied. His body doesn't do what he wants it to do, what he expects it to do. And he adjusts. And only very rarely does he cry, "It isn't fair!"
I can't say that I have matured. I'm still angry and bitter. Still resentful that the world continues to turn while my child is sick. Still annoyed that the fact that I no longer work means there is less money for things I want.
But I have learned some things this year. I do a pretty good differential diagnosis -- if the patient is Adi. I am really good at insisting my kid be admitted (or kept in the hospital) if I don't think he's healthy enough to go home. I can administer Neupogen injections. I can change a stoma base and bag -- even without gloves in a pinch. I can clean copious amounts of vomit. I can get my kid completely changed -- including his base and bag, and all the sheets on his bed -- in 26 minutes. (Dude, he's heavy.)
I have not learned to be more patient with the world. I have not learned to hold light and love in my heart for crappy drivers, people who stare, people in front of me at the grocery store, nurses who access ports too slowly, nurses who are too busy to change bandages, technicians who do not drop everything to x-ray my child, and pretty much everyone everywhere who does not do exactly what I want at the moment I want it.
In many ways, I am still a teenager.
In many ways, my kid is the grownup.

Decisions have been made.
The Chief Surgeon saw me the other day and said, "You need to do the chemo now, you know." I was surprised, because that wasn't the message I'd gotten from him just a few days earlier. "The stoma, that's about quality of life," he said. "But the chemo, that's about the CORE of life."
Three other surgeons told me the same thing yesterday, over the course of the morning. One of them grabbed my arm. "You need to agree to the chemo," he said.
"Well I was never planning to refuse--" I started to say.
"You need to agree to the chemo now, because otherwise he'll die," said the surgeon, which was a little blunt, if not inaccurate.
"So, the surgeons seems to think we need to have chemo," I said to Guy. And that's when Guy told me that he told our oncologist that "they" -- the collective doctors of the hospital -- had destroyed our faith in the system what with everyone presenting a different opinion and seeming to have no sense of the big picture. Apparently, after that happened, the oncology team sat the surgical team down and gave them a lecture on NO CHEMO = DEATH.
So. We are restarting chemotherapy on Sunday, with a little cytoxan followed by several days of cytosars.
In the meantime, the inverted stoma continues to make us miserable. We're tired (none of us is sleeping well) and cranky, the stoma leaks constantly and requires round-the-clock care, and it makes for a lot of laundry. Adi is stuck lying down on the couch with chux pads spread beneath him to catch any leaks. He's not thrilled about this, and spends most of his deay demanding that we bring him things. We, of course, handle this by picking fights with each other, because loss of control + fear + lack of sleep = marital bliss, of course. Another side effect no one tells you about….

No One Knows
The problem is that no one knows for sure.
I suppose I should clarify a little, so I'll try. Way back on July 27, Adi restarted chemo after a 6-week break. He got two doses of vincristine/doxurubicin (poison and more poison), and started his every other day erwinia asparginase (yet another posion). Within a week, we had been admitted with a possible bowel obstruction, and a few days after that, we were in the ICU with sepsis and heading for surgery. Adi came out of that surgery and just a few days later we headed back to the surgical ward.
The surgeons and the oncologists conferred, and it was decided that Adi would recover from surgery, finish his course of chemo (about 2 weeks), and then during his next 6-week interim maintenance phase, he would have surgery to reconnect his intestines (reanastomosis). And then he would finish his last round of chemo.
But then a week -- seven days -- after the first surgery (which was actually the third abdominal surgery, but let's not split hairs), Adi spiked a fever and was in terrible pain. YET ANOTHER OBSTRUCTION.
The surgeons and the oncologists conferred, and it was decided that right then, they would open Adi, reverse the stoma, and when he recovered, we'd move forward with chemo and all would be well.
Except that the head of the surgical department came out in the middle of the surgery to tell us that what they wanted to do would not be possible because Adi had suffered YET ANOTHER PERFORATION, his abdomen was again FULL of fecal matter, and his bowel was in terrible shape. They could not possibly reconnect at this point. In fact, his existing stoma needed to be resected, and they would make a new stoma.
Several hours later, Adi was in the ICU, intubated and sedated, and we examined his new stoma, which was busily expelling everything that had been trapped in the bowel.
The new stoma is inverted. I cannot explain to you in words how frustrating it is. We cannot attach a bag properly, so Adi is essentially constantly covered in leaking poop. Let's remember that Adi is almost 11, and eats basically normal food, so we are not talking about sweet baby poop. We are cleaning him and changing dressings ALL DAY. We are going through copious amounts of supplies. Adi's skin has severe burns from, you know, poop. And the oncologists are CHOMPING AT THE BIT to give him chemo.
The problem is that no one knows for sure how Adi will respond to chemo. Will there be another bowel obstruction? Another perforation? Will we wind up in surgery again, after chemo has brought down his counts?
Or what if we wait? What if we give Adi the month or two that he needs to heal, then close his stoma, and then finish chemo? Would that work? No one can say for sure. So we don't know what to do. And that's a terrifying feeling.
When Adi was younger, I agonized over school choices, over what therapies to pursue, and at what cost. Quality of life. But now we're talking about his actual life. The wrong choice here could be deadly. We could spend the rest of our lives second guessing ourselves. I'm exhausted by all of it. And terrified. Because the problem is that no one knows for sure.

Another day, another drive, another explosion
This morning, I set out with Adi for Schneider. Again.
This time, though, I was more prepared.
"Adi, if we hear a siren, what do we do?"
"We get out of the car."
"Lie down on the ground."
We drove. According to Waze, my regular route was backed up, so I got off at an earlier exit and took surface streets. And then, just a few minutes from the hospital, just like last time, the sirens started up.
I got Adi out quickly -- or as quickly as possible with Adi -- and got him onto the sidewalk. It's very, very hard for Adi to get down to the ground, but he did it, and then I shielded as much of him as I could with my body.
The boom was very close, and very loud -- it turns out that a rocket fell in an open area in Petach Tikva. Adi told me how brave he was, and I agreed. And then I helped him get back up, and we got back in the car and drove the rest of the way.
I wonder when I'll be able to drive without waiting for the sirens. I wonder when I'll stop feeling so tense all the time.

Friday Night Explosions
Friday night. Shul had just ended, and we were all outside. Kids were running around, circling around their parents, running ahead, shouting to their friends. People stopped to chat, walked a few steps, stopped again. Guy and I were with Adi, Amit was somewhere ahead. Yoni was out of sight -- not at all unusual.
And then -- the siren. For an instant, everyone froze. And then -- panic, immediately followed by doing what we've been taught. Guy grabbed Adi and propelled him across the street. "We have 90 seconds, people," he shouted. "No need to panic."
Amit was suddenly there with us, and we moved with a group of people towards the closest house.
One woman, Yoni's friend's mother, was crouched with her two youngest children, covering their heads. "Come into the house," I told her. "Into the safe room." She was frozen, not quite sure, so I took one of the children from her arms and we moved quickly into the house, into the safe room with the others.
"Everything is okay, I said to Amit and Adi, and to the little girl I was now holding. "Everything is fine."
"Hashem will protect us," said one of the other mothers. Some of the kids were crying, and the moms were close. We're not used to this here. We haven't had years of rocket fire to harden us, to make this another part of living here.
"I don't know where Yoni is," Guy said, I asked if he wanted me to go look for him. "No, I will," he said, and he left.
We heard the booms, close by. And a few minutes later, someone came in and said we could leave.
The owners of the house -- who had been in someone else's safe room -- came home, smiles and welcoming arms, hugs all around. The sent us home with Yemenite pitas and sauces.
Yoni, it turns out, had arrived home moments before the siren. Together with Lior, Shir, and Noam, he was in our safe room, and they were all fine.
But it hardens you, little by little. It makes you angry that you have to live in fear. It changes you.

Two polling officials removed during Bengal polls
Two polling officials were removed and seven preventive arrests made Wednesday during the third phase of Lok Sabha polls in nine constituencies spread across four districts of West Bengal.
According to chief electoral officer Sunil Gupta, the presiding officer of the Moigram Primary School booth in Hooghly's Arambagh was removed for illegally allowing a person to enter the voting compartment and cast the vote of another person.
Another polling official was removed in Mangalkote of Burdwan district for slow pace of voting.
"We removed the presiding officer in Arambagh for allowing another person to come near the voting compartment and cast the vote of another person. We have also initiated action against the person who cast the vote.
"In Mangalkote the polling officers was removed after we received complaints that the polling process was extremely slow in the booth," said Gupta.
Gupta also claimed that the voting was "fair, free and peaceful" and said that no reports of any violence, booth capturing, obstruction to voters or any other unlawful activity disrupting the poll process was received.
He said seven preventive arrests were made from Sreerampore, Arambagh and Hooghly in Hooghly districs.
Besides getting complaints from various political parties, Gupta said the Commission acted upon 92 complaints taking cognisance from media reports. The EC also received 27 written complaints during the day which too were immediately acted upon.
Though he refused to comment about the number of booths in which repolling has been sought by various political parties, Gupta said the commission will scrutinise the complaints and take a decision Thursday.
The third phase of polls involving 17,332 booths witnessed the deployment of 88,756 poll personnel including nine general observers, nine expenditure observers, four police observers and 2,889 micro observers.
While 20,798 EVMs were used including 20 percent of them as reserves, the EC replaced 44 of the devices which had malfunctioned. Besides deploying an Air Force helicopter for air surveillance, 566 webcams, and 1,631 video cams were pressed into service while webcasting was done in 356 polling booths.

Windows 7 Professional 32bit Sp1
Is Comodo D+ comparable to UAC?
I was getting tired of clicking the UAC OK everytime I wanted to read a PDF and all efforts to exempt Acrobat Pro failed. My answer was to install Comodo Firewall with D+ which I used before with XP. Not nearly as noisy as it once was, will D+ (H.I.P.S.) basically do the same, or better, than UAC?
|My System Specs
|28 Jun 2011
Win 7 32 Home Premium, Win 7 64 Pro, Win 8.1 Pro
If it's comparable, I do not know. I know it's a PIA to have to click on, but it is considered another layer of protection. If you disable that, then there's always the possibility something could sneak past Comodo and run without your knowledge.
Any layer of protection you can get should be utilized and although it might get tedious clicking on it, at least you have the satisfaction of knowing that there's one more program watching over your system.
In today's hostile web environment, every layer of protection helps and you have to take an active approach to defending your computer.
|My System Specs
|28 Jun 2011
Some good info and opinions on UAC: Windows 7 UAC - Quick notes on w D+ is a great defense layer, and I would feel very comfortable using it instead of UAC........ I disabled UAC, and haven't looked back. I don't use IE9, so its protected mode being turned off when disabling UAC is of no concern to me, but may be to you?
|My System Specs
|28 Jun 2011
Windows 8.1 Pro (x64)
If you need to accept a UAC prompt every time you want to read a PDF then something is very very wrong with your computer. You should not need Administrative power to read an PDF file, nor should the reader have Administrative power to read a PDF file. Especially with all the security problems Adobe has with Acrobat it should not have Administrative power!
Something is wrong with your computer.

Nice Appeal
By Kristi
from Brookfield, WI
About Me Dept Manager
This is a very nice award, but not as prestigious as the one I originally ordered for the Anniversary category. I would use this more for daily recognition or as a special honorary award for someone.
Service and delivery comments:
All of the in-stock items shipped VERY quickly. The original award for the Anniversary category was pushed back another 2 weeks for the original backorder date, which is why I had to settle on this award.
Impressive product - great service!

Location: 227 Burton Hall
Assistant Professor Rashne Jehangir presents
"Narratives and Counter narratives: Using pedagogy and space to tell the stories of first-generation college students."
First-generation, low-income, college students are by no means a homogenous group. Despite their heterogeneity, aspects of their narratives weave together to form a pattern reflective of both the richness they bring to campuses and the obstacles they encounter in college. Jehangir will draw on her longitudinal research study conducted in three phases to describe the experience of first-generation, low-income college students, and to bring attention to the ways in which pedagogy and multicultural curriculum can cultivate place in the academy. Qualitative analysis of students' perceptions of college and their critiques of the academy will invite discussion of how institutions might bridge the gaps and grasp the unique strengths of these students.
PsTL hosts a research presentation once a month. More details on this event can be found here.

Conditions Affecting U.S. Trade and Investment
GGD-92-129: Published: Aug 18, 1992. Publicly Released: Sep 21, 1992.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined the conditions affecting potential future U.S. investment in Ukraine's energy sector, focusing on: (1) trends and problems related to Ukraine's energy imports and production; (2) Ukraine's energy needs; (3) factors that discourage U.S. trade with and investment in Ukraine's energy sector; and (4) U.S. government efforts to aid Ukraine's energy sector.
GAO found that: (1) Ukraine's fossil fuels production has declined due to inappropriate use of production equipment and technologies, improper maintenance, lack of modern equipment and capital investment; (2) Ukraine may lose nuclear power plants; (3) Ukraine's energy imports have not offset production declines due to recent political and economic conditions; (4) Ukraine is seeking substantial foreign investment and technology to increase its fossil fuel production; (5) Ukraine will lease the right to produce mineral resources to enterprises, including foreign ones; (6) the United States and Ukraine do not have a bilateral investment treaty or an adequate bilateral tax treaty; (7) both countries are interested in establishing bilateral tax and investment treaties; (8) the U.S. government is assisting Ukraine's energy sector in such areas as environmental monitoring and enhancing the safety of nuclear power plants; and (9) the Department of Commerce cosponsored a conference on the political, legal and business climate in Ukraine.
