As the tear extends along the wall of the aorta, blood can flow in between the layers of the blood vessel wall (dissection). This can lead to aortic rupture or decreased blood flow (ischemia) to organs.I Would Like to Learn About:Expand All Collapse All Causes When it leaves the heart, the aorta first moves up through the chest towards the head (the ascending aorta). It then bends or arches, and finally moves down through the chest and abdomen (the descending aorta).Aortic dissection most often happens because of a tear or damage to the inner wall of the aorta. This very often occurs in the chest (thoracic) part of the artery, but it may also occur in the abdominal aorta.When a tear occurs, it creates two channels: One in which blood continues to travel Another where blood stays still If the channel with non-traveling blood gets bigger, it can push on other branches of the aorta. This can narrow the other branches and reduce blood flow through them.An aortic dissection may also cause abnormal widening or ballooning of the aorta (aneurysm).AneurysmAn aneurysm is an abnormal widening or ballooning of a part of an artery due to weakness in the wall of the blood vessel.ImageRead Article Now Book Mark Article The exact cause is unknown, but more common risks include: Aging Atherosclerosis AtherosclerosisHardening of the arteries, also called atherosclerosis, occurs when fat, cholesterol, and other substances build up in the walls of arteries.

Dissections that occur in other parts of the aorta (descending) may be managed with surgery or medicines. Two techniques may be used for surgery:Standard, open surgery. This requires a surgical incision that is made in the chest or abdomen. Endovascuar aortic repair. This surgery is done without any major surgical incisions. Drugs that lower blood pressure may be prescribed. These drugs may be given through a vein (intravenously). Beta-blockers are the first drugs of choice. Strong pain relievers are very often needed.If the aortic valve is damaged, valve replacement is needed. If the heart arteries are involved, a coronary bypass is also performed. Outlook (Prognosis) Aortic dissection is life threatening. The condition can be managed with surgery if it is done before the aorta ruptures. Less than half of people with a ruptured aorta survive.Those who survive will need lifelong, aggressive treatment of high blood pressure. They will need to be followed up with CT scans every few months to monitor the aorta. Possible Complications Aortic dissection may decrease or stop the blood flow to many different parts of the body. This may result in short-term or long-term problems, or damage to the:Brain Heart Intestines or bowels Kidneys Legs When to Contact a Medical Professional If you have symptoms of an aortic dissection or severe chest pain, call 911 or your local emergency number, or go to the emergency room as quickly as possible. Prevention Many cases of aortic dissection cannot be prevented.Things you can do to reduce your risk include:Treating and controlling hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) Keeping high blood pressure under control, especially if you are at risk for dissection Taking safety precautions to prevent injuries that can cause dissections If you have been diagnosed with Marfan or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, making sure you regularly follow-up with your doctor Related Information AneurysmHardening of the a...High blood pressur...Marfan syndromeAbdominal aortic a...Aortic insufficien...Coarctation of the...Blood clotsAcute kidney failu...Stroke High blood pressur...StrokeOpen ReferencesReferencesIsselbacher EM.

A Townsend motel is shut down after city officials found several health and safety violations inside the building.
The Family Inns of America motel at 7239 East Alexander Parkway was padlocked on Friday.
City officials went through the 40-unit building on Tuesday with the fire marshal and city codes inspector and found several health and safety violations.
The roof leaks badly, mold is everywhere and the smoke detectors don't work, police chief Ron Suttles said.
The building is structurally sound, but the interior needs to be re-done and the roof needs to be replaced.
The health department and the convention and visitor's bureau have taken several complaints about the motel, Suttles said.
The Townsend Police Department has responded to several reports of theft, fights and drug overdoses at the motel in the past three years.

How Will Baylor WR Terrance Williams Project in the Pros?
It's clear that the Jets are going to need to stockpile some playmakers in the upcoming spring draft. So who are some players that they should be considering?
Football Outsiders writer Matt Waldman has a deep-dive look into Baylor WR Terrance Williams and why he might project well to the pros based on his abilities to learn and adapt so far in college. Using Williams progress at the Senior Bowl as a lead-in to his film work, Waldman has a thesis on Williams worth considering.
Williams' growth as a player hasn't been isolated to a few days of a college all-star game practice in late January. The Baylor star has demonstrated improvement with his game since I watched him last year.
And then this as a somewhat backhanded, but also promising conclusion.
He's not the most refined technician in this draft class and he's not the best athlete. But from what I'm seeing, he's on track to develop into a strong combination of both.
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.comI'm not saying that the Jets need to run out and get Williams, but should he be around at the start of the second round, his name might be on the short list. So far, Williams' name hasn't surfaced much as a first rounder in mock drafts, but pay attention to his name in the next month. Playing at Baylor, Williams was overshadowed by RGIII last year, but seemed to have come into his own in 2012. Gil Brandt is one of the few so far to have him in the first round.

another good read in the series.
He crept forward between the tall narrow aisles created by the shelves. Just before he reached the corner he heard a thump, the sound of a body hitting the floor. He rushed forward into the corner of the room.
The desk was empty. The chair was pushed up against it, neatly awaiting its usual occupant. No one was in the corner. No one was there to make the sound. No one…alive.
A cold chill ran down his back. He really wanted to leave the room. Instead, he moved closer.
He walked to the window and looked outside. Snow fell softly on the rooftops in the city of Freeport. It was Christmas Eve, a night of peace and miracles.
"Go home."
He jumped around. The voice was just behind him.
Even before he turned, he knew no one would be there.
He rubbed the back of his neck, still cold from the breath that carried those words.
The curse had killed another Law Enforcement Officer in Stephenson County, this time it struck on Christmas Eve. Nearly a dozen good men had died in the past four years and they all had the same unexplained symptoms. And Mary knew Bradley was next.

Pelosi Booed After She Defends NSA Violating Fourth Amendment
Posted By kurtnimmoadmin On June 24, 2013 @ 11:01 am In Featured Stories,Old Infowars Posts Style,Tile | Comments Disabled
June 24, 2013
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's "progressive" fan base at the Netroots Nation conference shouted her down on Saturday after she defended the NSA's blatant violation of the Constitution and she called whistleblower Edward Snowden a criminal.
Disregarding Benjamin Franklin's admonition that those who surrender liberty for security deserve neither, Pelosi insisted the nation needs to sideline the Fourth Amendment in a trade-off – she called it "balance" – between national security and privacy.
"As far as Snowden: he did violate the law in terms of releasing those documents," she said.
As she uttered her treasonous absurdity about the Bill of Rights, Mark Perkel, an activist from California, started shouting at Pelosi. "It's not a balance. It's not constitutional!" he insisted. "No secret laws!"
According to Politico, Perkel was "escorted" out of the room by security. "Leave him alone!" other attendees at the conference demanded. "That's what a police state looks like right there!"
"You suck!" another person yelled at Pelosi.

That requirement, which will affect 28,000 workers in the executive branch, is among the provisions of the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act that President Barack Obama signed into law Wednesday.

Sadie Asks … What Turns You Off?
So, dear reader … what turns you off?
I am discovering that my own ON/OFF switch operates much differently than it once did. Nowadays it takes a little more to turn me on – more eye contact, more philosophical conversation, more authenticity, more everything actually…. but it takes much less to turn me off than it once did. Meaning my switch flips rather quickly these days. And it doesn't just go OFF, finishing with a gracious "Thankyouverymuchforbeinghere" but instead it goes OFF, and then exits the building, announcing tersely,
The thing that turns me off the most is the expectation of sex.
I can be attracted, enchanted and/or crushing hard on someone I don't know very well and if that person lets me know, overtly or subtly, that they have an expectation that I will get naked with them, an expectation that I will happily consent to shedding my regal robes, providing them with direct and ample access to my own personal crown jewels, an expectation that we will fuck, either straight away or in the future … I will freeze right the hell up. Yep, if they let me know that screwing me is their expectation I turn into a block of ice. You might as well wrap me in cling film and throw me in the walk-in.
Actually, that sounds like it could be fun.
Am I becoming less sexual in my older age? I don't think so. I just want someone to be with me because they like me as a person, not simply because I might be decent in bed. Who doesn't, right? It's that whole I want to be loved for me, not my ability to make you come thing. Is this me growing up or is it me growing into myself? I think it might be both, and my body flipping switches is simply its newly natural response to … sexpectation. And it's annoyed, I suppose, my body. Because with that expectation comes a sense of entitlement. And that? That is the turn off.
I used to wonder if the expectation of sex exists because of what I do. I am a sex writer and a producer of a sex storytelling show after all. I am all about sex, aren't I? I recently tested this in conversations with a potential FWB I had met online (and yes, I get that it sounds like there is expectation in that sentence itself, but the thing is that I never expect anything to work out a certain way, I only lay the foundation for the possibility of it.)
Anyway …. I didn't tell him anything about what I did. All he knew is that I was 44 years old and that I had a "progressive attitude" about sex. It wasn't long until he was asking me to provide him with masturbatory material in the form of pics and texts and dialogue about what we might do together once we met on person. I had yet to actually meet him and therefore I wasn't really a person to him yet. Perhaps I was just an ethereal vagina. Am I surprised by this? Of course not
But I was definitely turned off.
And I should be clear that I am not simply requiring this … respect. I am also reciprocating as well. I am all about taking it slow these days. I have certainly done plenty of objectifying of others in the past. The "he is hot and I want to fuck him … tonight" conversation is not one that is foreign to me, by any stretch. But what I am finding, I guess, is that I am just not in that space any longer. Being single has softened me a little bit I think. And I guess that is because I know now –perhaps because I was married for so long and learned what works and what doesn't– exactly what I want in (and from) my next long or short term partner(s).
And really? I have had enough casual sex to last a lifetime.
I guess what I am saying is that if am going to get turned on, it will be for (and with) someone without expectations, entitlements, or the need for it to happen.
Because neediness? Yeah. Another big 'ol turn off.
So, what turns you off?

Additionally, interns participate in weekly CHCI leadership and professional development sessions and meet with corporate representatives, national elected officials and foreign dignitaries.
CHCI is proud to announce that with the generous support of Walmart, it is expanding its Congressional Internship Program to three sessions (spring, summer and fall) throughout the year. The Congressional Internship Program application deadlines are:

The Graduate & Young Professional Fellowship Program is proud to announce the addition of secondary and higher education fellowships in 2010 to develop a cadre of young leaders in the education policy field that will serve as catalysts for much needed reform in the education and achievement of Latino students.
This program offers exceptional Latino graduates unparalleled exposure to experience in the underserved public policy areas of: health, housing, law, international affairs, STEM and now education. The fellowship is open to applicants with a graduate degree from an accredited educational institution in the last three years. This competitive program is comprised of a nine-month fellowship including a substantive work placement at a congressional office or federal agency. The International Affairs Fellowship includes three months abroad in Mexico. Travel, health insurance and a $2,700 monthly stipend is provided. The Graduate & Young Professional Fellowship Program application deadline is February 19, 2010.
CHCI's Public Policy Fellowship Program, conducted from September to May, provides college graduates with national hands-on public policy experience in a congressional office, federal agency, nonprofit sector, or corporate setting. Fellowship participants are provided with health insurance, roundtrip transportation to and from Washington, D.C., and a monthly stipend of $2,200.

Darlings, a fabulous time was had by all at the HP Project Runway Designer Reunion at the Empire Hotel in New York City. How do we know? Well, thanks to our fabulous new besties at NotMartha, we got invited, but because the Monique Lhuillier show across the street at Lincoln Center ran so late, we didn't get there until about 40 minutes before it ended. We never saw so many drunk reality show contestants in our life. We'd love to say we have all kinds of insider-y information, but aside from chatting with Kara Janx, Emmett, the gals at NotMartha, Jay, and Peach, we didn't have enough time to make the rounds. Still, it was the biggest, loudest Project Runway party we've ever attended. Thanks to HP for putting it together and a big thanks to Megan at NotMartha for making us her Plus-One.

St. Charles Rental Property May Soon Need Meth Inspections
CBS St. Louis (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSStL.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSStL.com/Health
ST. CHARLES (KMOX) – St. Charles leaders want to make sure nobody unknowingly moves into a meth house and becomes sick.
St. Charles Mayor Sally Faith said an idea among St. Charles City Council members is to compel property owners to go through an inspection to look for signs of methamphetamine each time they have new renters move in. She says this is already required in unincorporated St. Charles County and in Wentzville.
"Part of that inspection will be certainly examining to make sure there were no meth problems there," Faith said.
The inspectors, of course, would need to be qualified.
"Whoever certifies would have to be certified themselves," Faith said. "You would have to have training to know what you're looking at. I wouldn't know what I'm looking at."
There will be public hearings once a formal ordinance is drafted.
In St. Charles, you must receive a prescription to buy pseudoephedrine, a major ingredient in meth.

How to Grow a Walnut Tree
Growing a walnut tree will require effort and time. Trees take a while to grow but quicker if you maintain it. The seed takes time to open and start growing.
1Dig a hole through the dirt. This should be 2" to 3" deep enough for your walnuts to grow. It should be 2" wide for your seeds. Add a few more seeds than one. In case something goes wrong with one of your seeds. Once finish planting your seeds you cover them with dirt you took out.Ad
2Put a fence around the area. This will protect your nuts and to help you remember where you have placed them. Your fence can be made up of wire or long sticks with wire rapped around the sticks.
3Leave it as it will start growing in spring. You may start watering only once a week. When summer comes around that is when you can water three times a week. You also can remove your wire to give room for your walnuts to grow. You can leave your stick with wire but nothing on top of your walnuts.
4At the end of summer your walnuts should start sprouting. You can water your plant but slow it down back to once a week. As Autumn comes around and won't require to much effort.Ad
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- During winter your walnuts will drop of your tree and land on the ground. You can hand them to your friends and use them in your home cooked meals.
- You can use compost as it will help speed up the growth and you'll have more fresh walnuts. Compost at home and you will save earth by slowing down landfill. Much healthier for plants even if they are dying.
- Be careful of predators as they may come and attack your nuts. To prevent this place fences when the plant is young. But when your plant is a tree you won't need to worry their will be plenty of walnuts.
Things You'll Need
- seeds
- place to plant
- shovel
- water
- compost (optional)
- fences(wire, long thick sticks)

Portman Congratulates Mansfield 179th Airlift Wing For Taking Top Honors At 2012 NGAUS Awards
Wing Wins Three Awards, Including Spaatz Trophy For Best Overall Air National Guard Unit
Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Rob Portman (R-OH), a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, and the Ranking Member on the Emerging Threats and Capabilities Subcommittee, congratulated the men and women of the 179th Airlift Wing in Mansfield for receiving a number of honors at this year's National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) Awards, including the Spaatz Trophy presented to the overall outstanding flying unit in the Air National Guard.
"I'm extremely proud of the men and women of the 179th for receiving the Spaatz Trophy, given to the best overall flying unit in the Air National Guard," said Portman. "Those who serve at the 179th Airlift Wing in Mansfield have proven time and time again their invaluable service to our nation, and this award recognizes their hard work and continued importance to our mission overseas."
Named in honor of a former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Air Force, General Carl S. Spaatz, the Spaatz Trophy honors the best Air National Guard unit in America based on overall combat readiness and the unit's performance with respect to all other Air Guard flying units over the past year. According to the NGAUS, factors included in the evaluation are flying safety; aircraft operation readiness; weapons firing; unit alerts; unit manning; skill level qualifications; retention; drill attendance; operational readiness inspections; outstanding accomplishments and special missions and exercises. The 179th Airlift Wing were also awarded the NGB Curtis N. "Rusty" Metcalf Trophy and the Major General John J. Pesch Flight Safety Trophy.Just last week, Portman fought for Ohio's military men and women while also balancing the need for a strong national defense plan that is fiscally responsible during the committee's mark-up of the Department of Defense (DoD) Authorization for 2013, preventing elimination of C-27J planes and jobs at the 179th Airlift Wing in Mansfield. On March 20th, Senator Portman pushed Secretary of the Air Force Michael Donley and Air Force Chief of Staff General Norton Schwartz on the C-27J to ensure that the Air Force and Senate Armed Services Committee reconsider the Air Force proposal.

Active Questions
|Married Life / 2:47 PM - Thursday April 15, 2010
why are men afraid to have children?
Not all, but most, including myself. Please elaborate.
- Asked by thecorrectanswer, A Guy Critical, Male, 36-45, Toronto
My guess is because children become your anchor. You're no longer free to be ultimately selfish and carefree... spending as you'd like, traveling as you'd like, doing anything on a whim. Even men who are financially secure have to adjust their profiles when a child comes along (new things to think about and plan for). Couple that with the knowledge that you will be responsible for the health and welfare of a HUMAN LIFE and yeah, many hesitate because of that immense responsibility and grounding force.
- Response by surrealoptimism, A Creative, Female, 29-35
i think it's just because the guy isn't ready for commintment, or it's the fact that he is going to be a parent which means he will need to "grow up". Most guys (not all) i know aren't ready to be responsible. my opinion =)
- Response by thatgirl86, A Married Girl, Female, 26-28, Other Profession
Community Rating: Community Star
You're a man, you tell us why you hesitate.
- Response by rexy67, A Sweet Sarah, Female, 46-55, Who Cares?
I think because it is scary shit to have kids and it is the biggest commitment in life. also since women are usually the nurturers, they have more desire to go down that path. men don't have that pull, so they are more scared. but I think everyone is scared
- Response by fondacox, A Trendsetter, Female, 36-45
It's normal to be a bit scared ... women are too at first sometimes. But if you know you're having a child with the right partner, can afford to support a child financially and emotionally .. it makes a big difference.
- Response by mrscleaver16, A Married Girl, Female, 66 or older
Real simple. We are lazy.
- Response by 7zebras, A Career Man, Male, 36-45, New York, Financial / Banking
There's an old saying in the sport of fishing that goes, "frightened fish can't be caught." The same is also true with men who are afraid to have children. But when it comes to spooked bachelors, the blame should be equally shared. Sometimes it's the man who don't want to have kids. Other times it's the woman who inadvertently repels.
- Response by sugarlump, An Alternative Girl, Female, 29-35, Artist / Musician / Writer
I think it's because of the responsibility babies/children bring about. Even if a relationship is bad, once you get a woman pregnant you feel forever responsible for caring for and protecting not only the baby but her as well. Then there is the sense of being obligated to care for another person for the entire rest of your life that is overwhelming. Don't feel bad, Mother's feel this way too, even if some aren't willing to admit to it. Parenthood is scary no matter how prepared you think you are for it.
- Response by houseworkmakesyaugly, A Married Girl, Female, 36-45
Simple. When you have a kid. You lose half of your life and double your duties.
- Response by A Career Man, Male, 29-35
Because men are full of self-esteem. They'll take beer over baby food any day!
- Response by thundermist04167, A Mr. Nice Guy, Male, 46-55, Who Cares?
Because kids are a pain in the ass! They're not cute nor sweet; they're annoying and require a lot of time and money to raise. I'd say the men who don't want kids are afraid after a baby comes, their sex life will greatly diminish and they won't be able to do what they want when they want.
- Response by A Sweet Sarah, Female, Who Cares?
As a man I KNOW my choices and actions have an effect on the people around me, that's nothing new.
- Response by 1man4commonsense, A Career Man, Male, 36-45, Who Cares?
I wouldn't say that men were 'afraid' to have children, but I would say they hesitate to have children because once they do have children, it changes their entire life and the lifestyle they have...most people believe that when a woman has a child, her entire life changes and although that's true, for some men, the same holds true too...when a baby comes into a man's life, the man no longer has the freedom to do as much as he used to because his first priority is the well-being and welfare/care of the baby...a man who helps to support a baby now has to take into consideration the amount of money he has to put aside for the baby; he has to think about how much time he will spend with the baby; what expenses he's going to incur with the baby; whether he will have to travel to see the baby; and will have to work his schedule around times when he has the baby...some people think that the man only has to provide for a baby and that's it but for many men, they help with the childcare, the changing diapers, spending time with the baby, etc so a man can be just as affected as a woman...so I think that some men are hesitant in having children because they sometimes have to give up their 'freedom' (just as women do) and no longer have just themselves to think about when children come into the picture...just an observation I've made...:D
- Response by fastball, A Cool Mom, Female, 36-45, Edmonton, Self-Employed
Stretch marks. Have you SEEN what those things do to a dude's waistline? Puh-LEEZE!
- Response by mmaguy, A Jock, Male, 29-35, New York, Civil Service
Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn!
- Response by rhettbuttler, A Father Figure, Male, 56-65, Self-Employed
Lack of a uterus.
- Response by beachinbeachboy, A Jock, Male, 46-55, Consulting
wow, maybe it's different with guys your age, but every guy I'VE talked to wants to have lots of children (of course they do, they're not the ones that have to go through the trouble right). And then when I say I would never want any, they give me the "whats-wrong-with-you-a ren't-you-a-woman" look...
- Response by purplemango, A Sweet Sarah, Female, 18-21, Who Cares?
Regardless of some of the typical female comments, it has little to do with maturity or not longer being able to be selfish, since women always accuse others, especially men of what they're guilty OF.
- Response by richsifu, A Rebel, Male, 46-55, Science / Engineering
fear has nothing to do with it, kids just annoy the hell out of me
- Response by gilpill, An Intellectual Guy, Male, 46-55, Chicago, Internet / New Media
...because most of us have a real hard time resisting the urge to cook and eat them....and c'mon, who wants to go to the 'Big House' for life, eh?
- Response by nameacarl, A Mr. Nice Guy, Male, Who Cares?, Oostende, Self-Employed
Men aren't afraid to have children, boys are. Real Men don't run from responsibility, they embrace it.
- Response by A Player, Female, 26-28, Who Cares?
I just think it is a change of lifestyle and mental preparedness for some guys. As many of the other posters suggested, it is likely the fact that the guy has to go from doing things for himself and not really having accountability for any one or anything. But once that baby comes though, he has to become more accountable and be dependable in regards to where that baby is concerned. Because before in his mind he wasn't really influencing anyone and just being him. But as soon as the baby is there, he has to face the reality of what choices he makes affects someone else. And for most guys they don't really think about this when it comes down to just dating someone. As we can clearly see from the way most guys treat their gfs or wives. But when it is a kid, it is not someone you can just treat badly and not have some sort of direct accountability or easy escape from. And also the mental part comes in when they initially see the baby and realize that this situation is truly real. They have to stop playing around and realize someone is going to look up to them one day. And because of all of that, a lot of guys freak out and do get scared. But I think it is a natural reaction for both genders really. So you aren't alone by any means. Just best to make sure that if you truly don't want to have kids get that taken care of early on in life. And if you do want them make sure you are as prepared as you can be and at least agree with your partner on when you want to start trying early on too. Just to make sure you both are on the right page and not one person being unhappy about this or that not going like how they want it to.

Older generation proves invaluable
Christians should be neighborly
Leonard Lauriault Recently, I wrote on a few points one of my friends had made in a sermon about what Christianity does.

Christians need to be ready
Leonard Lauriault While I teach regularly at church, I rarely preach.

I preached the morning sermon while two others took on the other responsibilities. Without taking anything away from us three […]

Things I didn't share Friday (12/6)
1. Michael was just a little over a month old when I took him to see Santa Claus at the mall last year, so he basically slept through the whole visit. This year, things went a bit differently. He did great actually…right up until the point when Santa lifted Michael up to his face. As you can see by the photo, Michael didn't like that very much.
2. I am sure that it is pregnancy-related, but I've been feeling a little bit…blah lately. Yesterday morning, I decided to wear my new Target necklace, and I swear that it instantly made me feel better. It's amazing what a little accessorizing can do for a girl, isn't it?
3. Speaking of Target, you must get your hands on the soy Nordic Pine Candle that they are selling in stores right now. It is a limited edition for the holidays, so definitely jump on it if you like the smell of Christmas trees!
4. You all know that I miss wine a lot these days. I guess that we always want what we can't have… A lot of doctors say that it's perfectly fine to have a glass now and then, but I prefer to completely abstain from alcohol when I'm pregnant. My little substitution has been sparkling non-alchoholic champagne (aka bubbly grape juice). Is it the same? Not even close- but it is a nice alternative to water on those evenings when I want something a little more exciting.
5. Awhile back, Larabar released an ALT Pumpkin Pie bar. As soon as I heard the news, I was on a mission to try one. After scouring the shelves of every local health food store for months, I finally found them at Earth Fare last weekend. I was naturally elated, but the bar turned out to be a major fail. I probably would have liked it if it was a regular Larabar, but I don't really care for the ALT bars. Oh well…at least the hunt is over!
Have you tried the Pumpkin Pie ALT bar? If so, what did you think of it?

San Diego's Bookman Celebrated, Appropriately, in New Book
Irwin Herman has been known as "the Bookman" in San Diego for the past 23 years. During the past two-plus decades, he and his nonprofit organization, The Bookman, have given away more than 8 million books. His quiet but expansive work has garnered media attention in the past, and now his journey has been chronicled in a new book, The Bookman, by Art Seamans, professor emeritus at Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU).
Seamans' book will be presented to Herman at a literary tea held on the PLNU campus on Thursday, July 18 at 2 p.m. at the Bond Academic Center patio. Media and interested community members are invited to attend and to celebrate the great philanthropic efforts of this local hero. Both Herman and Seamans will be available for interview and comment.
Herman freely gives out new and used books to charitable organizations, teachers, active duty military, students, homeless shelters, prisons, and other individuals and organizations in need of reading materials. San Diego City College alone receives approximately 5,000 books a week. Donations have been made in all 50 states and many foreign countries. The Bookman operates his charity out of a 5,000 square foot warehouse at El Cajon Boulevard and 37th Street in City Heights, the space and electricity having been donated by San Diegan Jack Grace. The Bookman is an entirely volunteer-run, 501(c)3 organization.
Seamans is a retired professor and author of six books. Despite having lost his vision, he continues to read and write prolifically.

Kuwait: Government Pledges to End Sponsorship System

|Human Rights Watch, Kuwait: Government Pledges to End Sponsorship System , 28 September 2010, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/4ca989911e.html [accessed 8 October 2015]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
"This announcement is an important declaration that the Kuwaiti government is taking seriously the need to protect migrant workers," said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. "But the government needs to say publicly what it plans to do and it needs to include domestic workers in its plans."
Kuwait's current sponsorship system ties a migrant worker's immigration status to an individual employer, or sponsor, without whose consent the worker cannot transfer employment. "Absconding" from the workplace is a criminal offense, even if a worker has left because of abuse. This system gives employers unchecked leverage and control over workers, who remain completely dependent upon the sponsoring employer for their livelihood.
Human Rights Watch has documented abuses of migrant workers enabled by sponsorship restrictions in Gulf countries, including in Kuwait. Employees can suffer physical and sexual abuse, and employers often withhold salaries, require long working hours with no time off, refuse to allow a worker to go home after an employment contract expires, and block avenues to redress. Human Rights Watch will release a report on October 6, 2010, at a news conference in Kuwait City about its findings in Kuwait.
The Labor Ministry announced in 2009 that the government would abolish the sponsorship system, but the promised reforms at that time were minor. Migrant workers were allowed to change sponsors without their consent, but only after completion of the initial employment contract or after three consecutive years of employment. Furthermore, the change did not include the country's 660,000 migrant domestic workers and offered no protection to workers in abusive employment conditions during the first three years.
"Any new system should allow workers to change or terminate employment at will, and should decriminalize 'absconding,' or leaving employment without an employer's permission," Whitson said. "The government should make its plans public and cooperate with civil society and the countries the workers come from to adopt the highest standard of protection for workers' rights."

A new book demystifies bats and eliminates many myths surrounding rabies and other related infections. Bat Rabies and Other Lyssavirus Infections, combines current science about bat rabies with rich illustrations and personal stories from the field. The author, Denny G. Constantine, is widely considered one of the world's foremost authorities on rabies.
Bat Rabies is intended for scientists and the general public. Dr. Constantine presents the material in a simple, straightforward manner that serves both audiences. The book, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey National Wildlife Health Center, was published with the goal of increasing public understanding of rabies and the often misunderstood bat, and providing a balanced perspective on the risk of bat rabies to people.
Bat Rabies describes the worldwide occurrence of rabies in bats, its origins, how it spreads, and the degree of threat it poses to people, pets, farm animals, and wildlife. The book offers readers an overview of the virus variants that cause bat rabies and geographical patterns of occurrence.
"This publication on the relationship between bat ecology and disease, particularly that caused by rabies virus variants, is accessible to scientific and non-technical audiences," said David Blehert, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) microbiologist and editor of the publication. "Dr. Constantine has included many striking photos of bats in flight that he has taken during his many years of studying bats."
"The book comes at a time when public interest in bats is increasing because of the threat to bats from white-nose syndrome. Readers can learn more about the role diseases play in the ecology of these diverse and fascinating mammals," said Blehert, who is investigating the emergence and causes of bat white-nose syndrome at the USG

A group of 18 men and women with intellectual disabilities has filed a class action lawsuit against Gov. Paul LePage, Department of Health and Human Services Commissioner Mary Mayhew, and DHHS Director of Disability Services Ricker Hamilton over lack of access to support services required under MaineCare. as Patty Wight reports, the lawsuit charges that the state of Maine has let not only them, but dozens of other impaired adults as well.
Currently in Maine the waiting list for adults with disabilities to receive housing and other support services contains more than a thousand names This lawsuit deals with 176 of them. They're in the "Priority One" section, which means they have mental impairments so severe - from Down Syndrome to psychological disorders - that they are at risk for abuse, exploitation, and neglect.
Some, for example, have aging parents who are no longer capable of caring for them. The attorney who represents 18 of these adults in the class action suit is Gerald Petruccelli.
"These are people with acute, present needs," he says. "We are not talking about unemployment benefits, we are not talking about welfare benefits. We are talking about caring for some people who actually cannot care for themselves in the most basic way, and in some cases even feed themselves."
Petrucelli says this isn't a question of should the state provide support. He says the state is legally required to do so. That's because these adults are covered under MaineCare, the state version of the federal Medicaid program. And back in the '80s, Maine received federal approval to provide residential and community services to a select number of severely disabled adults. Currently, that number is set at nearly 3,000.
But Petruccelli says Maine isn't filling - or paying for - more than 100 of those slots. "And so we have brought this suit to ask the court to order the state to appropriate the money to fill the slots it has committed to fill. That won't take care of all the need, but at least they should do what they're legally obligated to do."
This problem actually began during the Baldacci administration. In 2008, facing state revenue problems, the waiting list for these services was closed. It re-opened within the past year or so, and Gov. LePage plans to provide funding to take 85 people off the waiting list.
Mary Lou Dyer applauds LePage's plan. She's managing director for the Maine Association of Community Service Providers, which serves people with intellectual disabilities. But she says the state has already slashed over $3 million from the program, and at the same time LePage is pledging to take 85 people off the waiting list, the program is facing an additional $850,000 cut.
"It's a very complicated situation where there's aspects of the budget that put money into the waiver for the wait list, but then other parts of it take money completely out of the system," she says.
No one from the LePage administration was available to discuss the waiting list, and it's state policy not to comment on pending litigation. Attorney Gerald Petruccelli says similar cases around the country have required states to pay their Medicare obligations. But this lawsuit intends to go a step beyond: It also wants to expand the number of slots the state funds. The precedent for that, says Petrucelli, is less clear.

There are things I prefer not to eat - American style fast food mainly - but I don't actively dislike them as such. If I had to, I'd be OK.
But there is one food that I just can't abide. I know it's popular and most people like it, but I can't deal with it at all. I have no explanation for this.
I just don't like it!
Unfortunately, I live in a place which seems to virtually survive on the stuff. It pops up everywhere. It is sold by itinerant street vendors on every street corner. It appears at official banquets. It is used everywhere from ice cream to pizza. Even KFC does it.
Sorry, but no thanks.
What do you (irrationally) not like?
