Oral-Facial Clefts
(Cleft Lip; Cleft Palate)
by Rick Alan
An oral-facial cleft is a birth defect. It occurs when the lip or the roof of the mouth do not form properly. The defect may include a cleft lip, a cleft palate, or both. A cleft lip is a gap in the upper lip, usually just below the nose. A cleft palate is a gap in the roof of the mouth or in the soft tissue at the back of the mouth. In the majority of cases, a cleft lip and cleft palate occur together.
Causes TOP
Early in pregnancy, all babies have an opening in the lip and palate. As the baby grows, these openings should gradually grow together. By birth, the openings should be closed. For some reason, in children with oral-facial clefts, these openings fail to close. The exact reason these openings do not close is not known.
Risk Factors TOP
Oral-facial clefts are more common in males. Other factors in the infant that may increase the chance of oral-facial clefts include:
Factors in the mother during pregnancy that may increase the chance of oral-facial clefts include:
Symptoms TOP
The major symptom of a cleft lip and/or cleft palate is a visible opening in the lip or palate.
Complications that can occur as a result of an oral-facial cleft include:
Diagnosis TOP
Cleft lip or cleft palate can be diagnosed by examining the newborn baby. A newborn with an oral-facial cleft may be referred to a team of medical specialists soon after birth. Rarely, a mild cleft palate may go undiagnosed for several months or even years.
Your doctor may be able to see a cleft lip before birth. It may be seen during a prenatal ultrasound examination. A cleft lip can be seen as early as 18 weeks into pregnancy. Cleft palate may be harder to see before birth because it is inside the mouth. Treatment cannot be started until after birth. However, diagnosis during pregnancy will give the parents and the medical team time to prepare a care plan.
Cleft lip and palate are sometimes associated with other medical conditions. Your doctor should be able to tell you whether or not your child's cleft is a sign of a larger condition. Some of these conditions may need additional treatment.
Treatment TOP
Surgery is the main treatment. The primary goal of surgery is to close the gap in the lip and palate. Other surgery may also be needed for:
A cleft defect can make it difficult for your child to eat or drink. Your child may be given a dental plate, which is placed in the roof of the mouth. It should make it easier to eat and drink until surgery can be done.
Cleft palates may also be associated with ear and hearing problems. If your child has a middle ear infection or fluid build-up, your doctor may recommend:
Hearing testing should be done regularly. Rarely, children with cleft palate may benefit from hearing aids.
Prevention TOP
Pregnant women and women who are likely to become pregnant can do the following to help prevent oral-facial clefts in their unborn children:

The Indian tuna fishery comprises two distinct segments, the coastal fishery and the oceanic fishery. The main components of the coastal tuna fishery are the gillnet fishery around mainland India, in which different species of tunas and tunalike species occur, and the pole-and-line and troll line fisheries exploiting skipjack and young yellowfin tuna around the Lakshadweep Islands. The oceanic fishery uses exclusively longlines, targeting large deep-swimming yellowfin and bigeye tunas. The status of the coastal fishery was last reviewed by Pillai et al. (1995), and that of the oceanic fishery by Somvanshi and John (1995). The present paper gives an update of the national tuna fishery, both the coastal and oceanic segments, and its recent trends. All three groups of resources (tunas, billfishes and seerfishes) are covered.

Youth Pitcher
By Coach May
Qualities of a good youth pitcher include:
- The ability to pitch with control - I don't care how fast you throw, but you must throw strikes. Walks will almost always come back to haunt you! On our team, the players that pitch will be the players that can throw strikes consistently. Make the other team "earn" their way on base. Throw the ball over the plate and let your teammates help you on defense.
- The ability to pitch with confidence and poise - I want you to know that you're going to get them out. I don't want you standing out there hoping you'll get them out.
- The ability to throw hard - At this level, throwing hard is not nearly as important as throwing strikes! It's nice to have a 98 - 100 MPH fastball like Joel Zumaya, but you gotta throw it for strikes!

While visiting Japan, and especially after returning from my visit to Japan, I've been asked countless times, "What's your favorite Japanese food?" Before my visit to Japan, I'd always respond with something like, "I dunno, sushi… chicken teriyaki maybe." Not so anymore. While I was in Japan I got to dine on a food unlike any I had ever experienced before. This food was the peerless okonomiyaki. And it's delicious.
What is an Okonomiyaki, Anyway?
Okonomiyaki can best be described as a kind of savory pancake. Often translated as an "as you like it pancake," okonomiyaki can contain a wide variety of ingredients. Okonomiyaki is mainly associated with Hiroshima and the Kansai region of Japan, and there's often much debate between okonomiyaki aficionados as to which style is superior (it's Kansai style, in case you were wondering).
Toppings and batters tend to vary according to region but most commonly include any combination of cabbage, meat, seafood, corn, bean sprouts, okonomiyaki sauce (which is kind of similar to steak sauce), mayonnaise, dried bonito flakes, green onion, pickled red ginger, dried seaweed powder, and tempura crumbs. It's awesome.
Basically, you take some batter with cabbage tossed in, add some savory items from above, cook on a hot surface/pan/whatever, then top with fixings and sauces. There's a lot of customization here, but they're all super tasty.
Unfortunately, there's not really a definitive history on the dish since it's not really specific as to what makes one up, but it's speculated that these types of savory pancake thingies have been around in Japan since the 16th century or so. I couldn't believe that I hadn't even tried one until after I visited Japan. I'd been missing out on so much!
The turn to okonomiyaki as we know it today seems to have started in the early 1900s. In Japan, Western food was considered anything made from wheat flour, and street vendors wanted to capitalize on this fad of Western food in Japan. Therefore, they would whip up a simple batter and make thin pancakes on an open air griddle and fill it with savory ingredients, kind of like a burrito.
Competition was fierce though and vendors were always trying to outdo each other. Developed first in Tokyo, it soon evolved to include Worcestershire sauce (another import from the West) and cabbage among other things to give it more body. Its popularity quickly spread and eventually morphed into what we know as okonomiyaki today.
Kansai Style vs Hiroshima Style
The Kansai style is easily the most predominant (and best) variant of the dish and is found most widely throughout Japan. All the ingredients are mixed together as above, and it's cooked much like you would prepare a normal pancake.
In Hiroshima, however, they do things totally wacky. First of all, the ingredients are layered rather than mixed which is ludicrous. The layers are usually batter, cabbage, pork, and optional items such as squid, octopus, and cheese. Noodles are also used as a base and/or topping with fried egg and a generous amount of okonomiyaki sauce. I'd be okay if it was just the egg or the excessive sauce, but noodles is taking it too far, Hiroshima – too far!
The amount of cabbage used is also about three to four times the amount used in Kansai style. Obviously, this is three to four times too much as the Kansai style's amount of cabbage is perfect. The cabbage found in the inferior Hiroshima version is piled very high atop the okonomiyaki and then squashed down with a spatula. A heathen's pancake, to be sure.
The Preparation
[yframe url='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bn_vvp4Uj0Q&feature=g-upl']
Some restaurants will prepare the okonomiyaki for you, while others will leave you in charge of its preparation – they just supply the materials and the means. The latter is definitely more fun, especially if you know what you're doing. If you don't, well then you're in trouble (see video above*). Better to let someone else take care of it for you.
These type of "do it yourself" restaurants aren't all that uncommon in Japan (some even have you catching your own fish!), and while it may seem like a lazy way to get the patrons to do most of the work themselves, it is nice to have your meal cooked and prepared exactly to your own specifications. Again, assuming you know what you're doing.
Okonomiyaki in America
Quite sadly, okonomiyaki does not seem to be very popular in America at all. I can't comment on other countries outside of Japan, but in America at least, I don't think I've ever seen it on the menu in Japanese restaurants (at least not in Ohio, anyway). If it were, I'd be eating it all the time.
Do not despair though! It is still possible to make your own okonomiyaki (if you're brave). It's not something I've yet attempted myself, but since writing this post and reinvigorating my love for the almighty okonomiyaki, I think I'll have to give it a go sometime soon. For those brave souls interested, you can attempt to craft your own okonomiyaki by following a recipe online, such as this one from Okonomiyaki World.
If you can find a place that serves these in America, or if you are in Japan, please do yourself a favor and try some okonomiyaki. You won't regret it.
So tell me, have you ever had okonomiyaki before? Do you love it? What's your favorite style? Ever tried to make it yourself? Let us know in the comments!

Wheatgrass Juice
Is the magical mystery juice all it's blended up to be?

Episode 06, November 09, 2006
The other day, I was getting a pineapple smoothie for lunch, when I happened to notice a poster extolling the virtues of wheatgrass juice. I didn't know too much about it, except that I've heard a lot of people talk about it as if it's the second coming. So out of curiosity, I began reading.
My friends, the English language does not contain adequate hyperbole to do justice to the tons of manure printed on this poster. If the average person can take even half of this poster seriously, then the ignorance and gullibility of the general public is much worse than even I would have ever guessed.
The poster was a list of claims, almost all of which centered around chlorophyll, of which it said wheatgrass juice is a rich source. Chlorophyll, as you know, is used by plants to synthesize proteins and sugars, using radiation from the sun to power a chemical reaction, converting carbon dioxide from the air and water from the ground into proteins and sugars, exhausting oxygen as a waste byproduct. Humans and other animals, not surprisingly, don't work this way. We get our proteins and sugars by eating food; our bodies have no special use for chlorophyll.
Now, I'm not saying that there's anything unhealthy or bad about wheatgrass juice. It's probably at least as healthy as just about any other plant that you could put in your juicer and blend into green syrup. I probably wouldn't rate wheatgrass as high on the nutrition scale as a proper vegetable, but I doubt very much that there's any harm in it. However, wheatgrass juice proponents don't merely claim that it's healthy. They've assembled the most outrageous list of vague medical conditions that it cures, and all sorts of types of wellness that it supposedly promotes. Since these claims are all entirely unsubstantiated, and sound far fetched to say the least, this is certainly a product you should approach skeptically. Let's take a look at some of these claims.
Wheat grass is high in oxygen like all green plants that contain chlorophyll, and the brain functions at an optimal level in a high-oxygen environment.
While it's true that if you cut off the oxygen supply to your brain, its function will be somewhat less than optimal, it's not true at all that chlorophyll is a good source of oxygen. I suggest you continue to rely on your lungs for that, which are probably better, since you don't have leaves. All types of chlorophyll have only trace amounts of oxygen. Chlorophyll is a carbohydrate, thus its makeup is overwhelmingly carbon and hydrogen. The molecule has as many as 127 hydrogen and carbon atoms, but only 5 or 6 atoms of oxygen, 4 of nitrogen, and one lonely magnesium atom. Incidentally, this also refutes another claim: that the high magnesium content of chlorophyll builds enzymes that restore your sex hormones. Interesting, given that enzymes are proteins made of amino acids, which contain no magnesium at all. I have no idea whether a single atom of magnesium restores sex hormones, whatever that means, but if so that's one hell of an atom. If you want magnesium, take a vitamin pill. If you want oxygen, take a breath. If you want sex hormones, go have sex.
Wheatgrass juice has been proven to cleanse the lymph system, building the blood, restoring balance in the body, removing toxic metals from the cells, nourishing the liver and kidneys and restoring vitality.
The grammatical errors are from the poster, not from me. Let's take these one at a time. First, the claim that it's been "proven" to do any of these things. Notice that these claims are very vaguely worded: "restores balance", and "builds the blood". This is deliberate. If they tried to be specific, they would get into trouble with the FDA. If you make a claim that a product is intended to diagnose, mitigate, treat, cure, or prevent a specific disease, and your product has not been tested and is therefore unregulated, you're in violation of the law (21 U.S.C. 343(r)(6)). The wheatgrass people can't actually submit their product for testing against any particular diseases, because of course it would fail. So they are relegated to making only vague, untestable claims like it "builds the blood" and "restores balance".
As for whether the ingestion of wheatgrass will lower the levels of toxic metals in your cells, I wasn't able to find any research that supports this. However I did find research where living wheatgrass was found to be one of the grasses most susceptible to the absorption of zinc and cadmium from the soil through its root system, so it's more likely to be contaminated with these metals. If lowering your toxic metal levels is important to you, wheatgrass is the last thing you should put on your shopping list. And, of course, this is all founded on the assumption that you have toxic metal problems that need to be addressed. Before you seek out quack remedies for this unusual illness, first find out from a medical professional that this is indeed a problem you have, and don't go only on the assurance of a health food store owner who wants to sell you something. Probably the best thing you can do is stop chewing the lead paint off your windowsills.
It contains most of the vitamins and minerals needed for human maintenance, including the elusive B12.
Sounds compelling! But it sounded less compelling when I turned away from the poster, and looked at the store's own nutritional facts chart. The only vitamins present in a 2-ounce shot of wheatgrass juice are 15% of your daily allowance of Vitamin C, and 20% of iron. The rest of the vitamins and minerals, "elusive B12" included? Zeros, all the way down the board. The bottom line is that a shot of wheatgrass juice offers far less nutrition than a single Flintstones vitamin pill.
I would welcome a scientific test of wheatgrass juice. I challenge wheatgrass proponents to pick any supposed benefit of wheatgrass juice, and substantiate it in a real test. And by a test I don't mean a report from a hippie whose energy fields have been rejuvenated. I mean one of their claims that some sick people might actually believe and are avoiding important medical treatment as a result, such as the claim that wheatgrass juice will reduce high blood pressure. That's easy enough to test in a real, peer reviewed, double blind clinical trial. Take notice that the wheatgrass proponents have not done such a test, and there's probably a very good reason they've avoided it. Approach far fetched claims with skepticism, especially those that have not been, or cannot be, substantiated.
In the meantime, I'll continue to enjoy my pineapple and banana smoothies, no wheatgrass juice, bee pollen, or extract of ginseng needed.

Listen, I'm not gonna give you a tip, because you're also full of bs as we all people are (no offense!);)...
First, I'm not sure about the FDA, but I know for sure that science is always developing and it quite often provkdes contradictory info... So I'm not sure whom to trust anyway.
But, assuming that the poster was written deliberately to sell (which I'm quite sure of, judging from the sound of that), what on earth assures you that a "medical professional" and the FDA sometimes don't want to hide (or don't know) some known facts so as to sell you more of THEIR stuff and advice?
As for the sex hormones, I'm pretty sure that my endocrine and nervous systems are doing the job amazingly, even on their own.;)
As for the wheatgrass, I'm probably gonna try it in the future, hope it doesn't kill me, of course; and my dumbness is gonna get another big boost of hormones, no wait, vitamins, whatever, anyway I feel sorry for your dumbness, since you're so intellectually superior to all of us, are you not?
Oh, and I answered wrongly to the next question, I meant 14
Great review of wheatgrass and article, however i didnt agree with the comment about " a hippie whose energy fields have been rejuvenated" i think if you knew any real "hippies" you would find they are intellegent people and often quite educated in science, env science , permaculture etc and not the air heads you made them out to be with your crass stereotyping style description . cheers.
I have always been a skeptic of any one "super" food that can do it all. But I do drink wheatgrass juice. I view it as a green vegetable just like spinach of which I eat too. I usually drink it while exercising so if it is a complex carb with protein, bonus. My dog has skin cancer. A great big tumor turning into multiple tumors on her lip. Holistic vet suggested trying wheatgrass application directly onto tumors. Six months later, tumors gone. Quit applying wheatgrass, tumors started growing again. So back to applying wheatgrass and so far has inhibited further growth. Cured cancer? Not likely but has obviously created an environment where the tumors do not like to grow. Will see what the future holds. Would oatgrass work too? Maybe. Ground up spinach, maybe. Who knows? All I can say is I have seen the positive results of wheatgrass directly applied to the tumors.
Really people. This guys sees one poster and now he's an expert. Talk to the thalassemics who have seen their hemoglobin level rise after taking wheatgrass and that has nothing to do with the iron content.
I find sites like this which are run by people who know very little other than how to be derogatory, have no value at all.
I do not disagree with any comments made about Wheatgrass juice. I did want to clarify one point. Enzymes primary and secondary structures are composed of any amino acids. Enzyme tertiary and quaternary structures often do contain metal ions including, but not limited to, magnesium ions.
I love the website and the podcast. I donate every month. Thanks for everything.
As long as it is not harmful, dont mind trying as supplement. But, wheatgrass alone does not help in everything. All fruits and veg, org whole grains, adequate spring water and enough exercise definitely would support. Wheatgrass is 5-10% of all benefits and another form of inexpensive spinach or green leafy veg.
I would recommend that you get your information from better sources than this guy and his cited references. I too once thought that wheatgrass was no better than spinach but after twenty years of using it myself, treating patients with it as a Naturopathic Doctor and seeing patients at the Ann Wigmore Institute use it to reverse serious health problems, I now know otherwise. There is plenty of scientific research on it if you seek it out.
So, Barry, by "better sources" you mean sources that recommend the product you sell?

Zombie Apocalypse
Film online Zombie Apocalypse va este oferit spre vizionare gratuit la calitate HD fara intrerupere exclusiv pe acest site.
Descriere in engleza: There's a wealth of chopping and shooting off heads. Zombie dogs, a mixture of fast 'running' zombies, semi intelligent zombies, rowdy and slow zombies. The script tries to avoid clichés but is unsuccessful given the tone. Writers Brooks Peck and Craig Engler add nothing new for 99 percent of the film - there's checking for bites, executing best friends, an array of ideas already explored in other films but they bring them together productively with Lyon's competent direction.
Ving Rhames redeems himself slightly as Henry - after the nasty taste of the Day of the Dead remake he starred in. That said, this production is not in the same league as the Dawn the Dawn of the Dead remake that he also appeared in. Actor Lesley-Ann Brandt as Cassie is worthy of note and the rest of the main players do a good enough job. Edward Burns alike Gary Weeks as Mack and Taryn Manning Melissa George alike are more than adequate. The look-a-likes don't stop there; keep an eye out for the Bruce Campbell and Texas Chainsaw Massacre zombie a-likes. Like the film itself everything looks like something else.

Here is an unknown car - you think it could be filled with bad people.
So, instead of just calling the law - you go out (in many variants) and expose yourself to them.
They ARE bad people and they shoot you or beat you up or stab you (of course,
can handle it).
Why is this continuing?
Or they are innocents and they call the cops on you. Man with a gun (for instance). Not a man engaging in open carry lawfully - but man with a gun - for a fun night time adventure.
Turn on the lights and call the cops, if you truly expect a threat and it isn't two kids necking.
My wife and I were returning from the park (our neighborhood hooks into a neat trail system). In the far reaches of the parking lot, we heard cries and moans. Thus, I took out my Surefire and Glock 19 and crawled to the car, jumped up and yelled - I'm from the Internet.
Or, we looked at each other, smiled and remembered our youth.

Beware- The Dreaded Cat Carrier
It is time to go to the vet, and suddenly Fluffy is nowhere in sight. You just brought the carrier out of the closet, and thought you saw Fluff dive under the bed, so you peer underneath the bed and there she is hunched in the farthest corner hissing at you. Try as you might, you can't get her out, so with a red-face you call your vet make your apologies and reschedule the appointment. Now what do you do?
You return to basics and in doing so, you will allow your cat to become desensitized to the perceived threat of the cat carrier. The idea is to reassure your cat that every time she goes into the carrier, bad things will NOT occur. You can achieve this in several ways and by making this carrier a part of your cat's daily routine, as well as using it during the all-important trip to the vet you minimize your cat's stress in dealing with it.
Familiarize Your Cat With The Cat Carrier
Keeping the carrier visible in your home at all times helps to acclimate the cat to its presence. The first steps in getting your cat used to the carrier begin long before the trip to the vet. You need to familiarize your cat with the carrier slowly and gradually.
- First off, before you even begin, wash the carrier out well with hot water and vinegar. Let it air dry for at least 24 hours.
- Bring the carrier inside and start feeding your cat inside of the carrier. Leave the door propped open and place a bowl of tasty canned food at the very back. If the cat doesn't go in on her own free will, don't force her to. Simply leave the food in place for 10-15 minutes, then remove it and store it so it won't spoil. Try again later. Do not feed her in-between times anywhere else but in the carrier.
- Sprinkle catnip on the bottom of the carrier, and toss a few toys inside. Ping pong balls or golf balls work well. They make a wonderful sound when batted about the floor of the carrier.
- Spray the inside of the carrier with Feliway Spray, saturate it well, put some nice padding inside to make a comfy bed, and see if kitty will go in and curl up. You can either leave the door propped open, or take it off completely.
Once the cat is comfortable about going inside the carrier, close the door for about 5 minutes, then release your cat. Give kitty a nice treat like Kitty Kaviar or kippered herring. Do this about twice a week. Increase her time of confinement, but never for more than 10 minutes.
Prior to the vet visit there are a few things you can do to further calm your cat and prepare her for the trip.
- Before placing the cat inside, spray the carrier with Feliway Spray.
- Pad the top of the carrier bed with soft bedding. Place disposable diapers down on the bedding padding side up to catch any accidents that occur when cats are stressed out.
- Take pipe cleaners and thread the pipe cleaners through the slats of the carrier so the ends are sticking out inside and high above the cat's head. Twist the pipe cleaners around to hold them firmly in place, and then attach a lightweight feather toy to the end. The toy floats high above the cat's head, and she can bat at the toy when she becomes stressed.
- Place the cat inside the carrier, lock the door, and cover the carrier with a dark cloth.
- Transport the cat to the vet, and instead of putting your cat carrier directly on the floor or the seat of your car, prop it up on a soft pillow (to cut down vibrations) and cover the carrier with the cloth IF it is not so hot outside that the cat will end up suffering. Try and place it in the best position you can, away from any sun that might come shining through the windows. If it is a hot day, leave plenty of air space and put the cloth from front to back, leaving plenty air holes on the side for air to pass through. Also be sure to use a seat belt to keep the carrier in place.
At The Vet's
Arriving with your cat to the vet, you want to keep your cat as calm as possible and try to minimize any traumatic effect. Here are a few tips -
- Before you get out of the car to go in the office, place a small dab of vanilla extract under the cat's nose. (Do this through the wire; don't take the cat out of the carrier to do this) Or, put the vanilla extract under her chin before placing her in the carrier.
- Keep the cat covered with the cloth while in the waiting room to help reduce the stress and minimize the odors/noise she will encounter there.
- I always carry a can of spray cheese with me. The vet uses this cheese to give my cats a treat or two so they don't view him as the enemy. I always wear an older long-sleeved shirt over my clothes, because most cats stress-shed enough to sculpt out three cats during a vet exam.
By following the above tips, you will allow your cat to be as relaxed as possible under the circumstances, and show her that fearing the carrier is unnecessary. I have a total of six carriers in my home at all times, all with the doors off and nice padding inside and most of the time you can find one or more of my crew inside catching naps.
I also use a carrier for after-care for my cats, draping the sides to create a nice dark den where they can sleep if they are ill. The doors are taken off so the cat doesn't become upset thinking she is being confined.
You can have a pleasant vet experience with your cat, as well as cut down on the time that some spend chasing their cat all over the house just to get them to go inside the dreaded carrier. For cats that are unaccustomed to seeing the carrier except right before a vet visit, all you will see during the crucial time of getting them into the carrier is the tip of their tail as they dive under the bed to get away from "the dreaded carrier."

Cotechino (koh-TEH-kee-noh) is an italian stuffed sausage in which a pig's gut is stuffed with a mixture of lean pork, fat, rind, spices and aromatic herbs. Eaten with lentils, it traditionally brings luck. It could be considered the cured meat par excellence and it is certainly one of the great traditional foods of Modena Italy.
Crudo means "raw" in both Italian and Spanish and generally refers to raw fish, sliced and lightly dressed with oil and with hints of acid or spice (for example: olive oil, salt and lemon)
Tonnato is a well-known Italian (from Piedmont) dish of cold, sliced pork covered with a creamy, mayonnaise-like sauce that has been flavored with tuna, anchovies, cayenne pepper, lemon juice. It is served chilled.

"In the early collage series, I used materials in a combination of linen, wire
and found objects. Wood and wire frameworks form the shapes. The use of
copper, wire, nylon and other materials add contrast, texture and depth to
the folds of linen. Included with these elements are also plastic and
metal. Some illumination has also been added through the use of neon and
other lights.
With the use of steel in sculpture recently, I have enlarged the cross to
feel the importance of the shape turned in various directions. It is meant
to reflect seasonal colors relating to the direction it is facing. This is
a recurring design of color and shapes that I have been working with for
many years in painting and drawings. The ability of the viewer to rotate
around the sculptures gives a symbolic feel of our changing world. As one
views the different angles many more shapes emerge. In Seasons I, the black
sides refer to the color of north, relating to the element of water and the
winter season. The green sides are for east, earth and the season of
spring. The red side faces south and is the fire element relating to the
season of summer. White symbolizes the west, autumn and the element of
metal. Yellow is the center. The works are in steel with enamel
and are made up of six cubes put together. Various finishes and
textures are in use on these pieces."

WordPress has existed for 10 years and I've been building WordPress websites for almost as long. During this time, a lot of things have changed, but one thing that hasn't changed is using plugins to enhance the functionality of your website.
Plugins can add or enhance features not found in the core of WordPress software. Anyone who knows me knows that I generally try to avoid using a plugin if I can manually code what I need in the site (less moving parts, less things to break and all that). But there is a small list of plugins that I use without hesitation on almost every site I build. And then there are some plugins that can create some really useful websites.
The following list are 10 of the most used plugins by the Blog Movers that help in creating the useful and dynamic websites we build when moving blogs to WordPress.
1. Akismet – This plugin comes with the core WordPress installation and is absolutely fantastic at blocking spam commenters on your site. Because it works so well, I normally like to configure my blogs to where comments need not be moderated before publishing (unless they contain a lot of links), and it really improves the interaction on blog posts when visitors don't have to wait hours for their comment to be approved and visible to others.
2. Gravity Forms – Without a doubt, this is the best form plugin available for WordPress. It has so many options, features, and add-ons that the possibilities with forms on your site are nearly endless. With Gravity Forms you can create anything from a simple contact form to complex, multi-conditional forms and anything in between. A person could easily write a book on everything that is possible with this plugin.
3. W3 Total Cache – I use this plugin religiously to ensure that every WordPress site I create runs as fast as possible. In a nutshell, W3 Total Cache speeds up your site by storing HTML versions of all your posts and pages and serves them up to visitors instead of WordPress having to query the database to recall the requested information. That alone can greatly speed up your website, and with other options such as minification (reducing the file size of your scripts and pages), your content can be delivered even faster.
4. WordPress Firewall 2 – This plugin hasn't been updated in quite a while, but it still has performed well on many of my blogs by preventing malicious hacking attempts. Even if you choose not to use this security plugin, it would be smart to choose an alternative. Nobody wants their day ruined because some script kiddie decided to have some fun with your website.
5. WordPress SEO – The best SEO plugin in my opinion. This lets you easily set your meta descriptions, custom meta titles, indexing or no-indexing of posts and pages, default meta templates, social settings, sitemaps, and more. Don't start a WordPress blog or website without it.
6. Advanced Custom Fields – When creating custom WordPress sites that involve precise placement of certain content, this plugin (along with theme customization) makes it a breeze. I've used this plugin for making real estate websites, medical sites, and directory-type sites. It's a good plugin to have in your toolbox.
7. Custom Post Type UI – Like Advanced Custom Fields above, this plugin makes creating custom post types in WordPress dead simple. If you want to avoid any intricate programming in your theme files to create a custom post type, then this plugin is for you.
8. Widget Logic – Have you ever wanted to place a widget in your sidebar, and only have it appear in certain areas of your site? Then this plugin is for you. After installing this plugin, all your widgets will have an input area at the bottom of your widget where you can insert a conditional statement that manages where the widget will be seen.
9. Membership – The perfect plugin to create a membership type of site, and to keep content private from non-members. You can create as many membership levels as you desire (including expiration times), choose from several payment processors (if your memberships are paid), protect as many pages or posts as you want, and even protect parts of a page while leaving the rest viewable to the general public.
10. 3d Cart – For commerce abilities, 3d cart is one of the best options I've come across. It has been around for a long time (under different names), the interface is easy to use, and does exactly what you would expect an e-commerce system to do. I've used 3d Cart in creating a full-fledged online jewelry store, and it has performed flawlessly for a few years now.
While there are literally thousands of plugins available for WordPress, and I have not mentioned every plugin I like to use, the 10 listed above are what I consider to be essential for the work we do here.

The decision to delay came after commissioners met in executive session.
Harris County Judge Ed Emmett says commissioners could not come to an agreement on one question:
"The question of the way the agenda item was worded. The question was 'could we substitute another name?' And we really had differing opinions; you had an AG opinion; you had a county attorney opinion. But in this case, it's not a vacancy. Commissioner Fonteno will continue to serve. So, it was easier just to say, 'Okay, we'll just hold it.'"
Fonteno has served on the Port Commission for 13 years, and at a time when the port was involved in controversy from an unused multi-million dollar cruise terminal, questionable payouts to ex-port employees, and the unauthorized use of a tour boat for a private party.
These and other improprieties led to the state Legislature ordering a special review of the port by the Texas Sunset Advisory Commission.
Judge Emmett credits Fonteno for promoting change:
"The port was created by the Legislature, certain legislators need to remember that. They keep trying to tell the county, we oughta do this and we oughta do that, but the truth of the matter is the port's a creation of the Legislature, and that's why it's going through Sunset review, and Jim is very knowledgeable about international trade and the true function of the port, which is tonnage in and tonnage out. So, that's important to keep in mind."
But there is a definite split with commissioners, with El Franco Lee and Jack Cagle backing Fonteno, and Steve Radack and Jack Morman, whose precinct-2 is home to the port, wanting to replace him.
A supplemental item was filed by Commissioner Morman, who suggested retired Army Colonel John D. Kennedy to replace Fonteno.
Emmett had a problem with how his name came up at the last minute, but:
"I want a commissioner at the Port that understands the need to keep moving, and do the things necessary to bring freight. That's what we need to be talking about. What are we doing to attract freight to this gateway of North America? And I think right now, Jim understands that. And I will meet with the Colonel and get his views."
Emmett and commissioners will decide in two weeks.

Ok so i foolishly made a 6 page script in bash for a system that is running sh (i didnt know this till i tried to run the script). Does anyone know if the syntax for case statements, while loops, or if statements is different in sh than it is in bash? My script sure as blazes is not working right and im having trouble finding any differences in the syntax. It looks like the syntax should be the relatively the same between the two shells (at least the man pages are leading me to that conclusion). Anyone had this problem before? Thanks for any help!

The big question: will the RCN's This is Nursing campaign help to restore the profession's image?
The Royal College of Nursing has launched the This is Nursing campaign to show the public the impressive work that nurses do.
The campaign will tell the public about the reality of modern-day nursing and the skills required to be part of the profession. What impact do you think the campaign will have on the public? Will it alter the public's view of the profession?
Add your comments and they could be published in the magazine.
Readers' comments (3)
the reality of nursing? what do you mean? a video showing nurses being shouted at by patients and visitors, over-worked, stressed, not getting any breaks and going home late.
The great british public need to be aware of what is involved in nursing today. All the social aspects/paperwork of nursing, risk assessments, audits about audits, receptionist/clerk and after all that we manage to do a bit of nursing(the job I was trained and employed for) to a standard I am not proud of anymore because I don't have the time.
If a nurse was able to concentrate on nursing his/ her patients I am sure the professions image could be restored.
'Big Question' !!!! (as if nurses don't have more important things to think about)
posted on 20th September
has it already been forgotten about?

Russian businessman, investor and an active philanthropist, Suleyman Abusaidovich Kerimov, has an estimated net worth of $3.1 billion as of May 2015 according to Forbes. He has a degree in financial accounting and economics from Dagestan State University. Kerimov is the owner of football club FC Anzhi Makhachkala in Russian Premier League.
He sold nearly all his Russian assets, including shares in Gazprom, government-owned Sberbank and a massive housing development in suburban Moscow prior to Russia's 2008 financial meltdown. The money allowed him to settle his debts and also to purchase stakes in a few European banks including Royal Bank of Scotland and Fortis as well as Russia's largest gold mining outfit, Polyus Gold. Has also invested in real estate company PIK. Most recently, in summer 2010, Kerimov together with fellow billionaires Alexander Nesis and Filaret Galchev bought Dmitry Rybolovlev's controlling stake in Uralkali, the biggest producer of potassium fertilizers in Russia. He reportedly owns three planes and two yachts. Kerimov was born March 12, 1966 in Derbent, Dagestan (USSR) now a member of the Federation Council of Russia.
Following his car crash in autumn 2006 and resulting medical treatment for severe burns, Kerimov donated €1 million to the non-profit organisation Pinocchio. In 2007, Kerimov founded The Suleiman Kerimov Foundation with the vision to help lives by investing in initiatives that strengthen communities and help those in need. The Suleiman Kerimov Foundation has directed over $60 million to charitable causes.
