Unlike prescription and over-the-counter medications approved by the FDA, dietary supplements are not regulated for safety and effectiveness. Dietary supplements can also have side effects and may interact with other medications or supplements. That's why it's important to let your healthcare provider and pharmacist know about all of the medications and supplements you currently take or are thinking about taking.View Thread
What do we know? Two studies were recently conducted in the United Kingdom (U.K.). The first study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), did not show an increased risk of esophageal cancer in people taking oral bisphosphonates or in people taking oral bisphosphonates for longer than three years. The second study, published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ), suggested a potential increase in the risk of esophageal cancer in people taking oral bisphosphonates for about five years or more. These two studies from the same large population of patients in the U.K., used different study designs and methods to investigate the potential link between bisphosphonates and esophageal cancer.
The JAMA study, showing no increased risk, looked at people with and without exposure to oral bisphosphonates and followed them for an average of four years (over a span of time). The BMJ study, showing an increased risk, looked at patients diagnosed with esophageal cancer, matched each patient with other patients who did not have esophageal cancer and noted that those with esophageal cancer were more likely to have had greater exposure to oral bisphosphonates. The BMJ study did not have a clear and definite measurement of the actual length of bisphosphonate therapy. Neither study was able to determine if the bisphosphonates were taken correctly and as prescribed. In general, there needs to be further study of the association between bisphosphonates and esophageal cancer.
Guidance for patients. If you take oral bisphosphonates or are considering treatment with oral bisphosphonates you should do the following:
• Discuss your concerns about bisphosphonates or any other medicine with your healthcare provider
• Review your individual risk factors for esophageal cancer, which include tobacco use, excessive alcohol use, obesity, Barrett's esophagus, radiation treatment to the chest or upper abdomen and other problems associated with the risk of esophageal cancer
• If you are taking oral bisphosphonates, take the medicine exactly as directed to reduce the chances of esophageal irritation
• Report any unusual symptoms, such as gastric reflux, painful or difficulty swallowing or other symptoms to your healthcare provider and discuss appropriate steps to take with regard to your treatment
There is no indication that concerns about esophageal cancer apply to intravenous (I.V.) forms of bisphosphonate medications.
The finding of no association in the JAMA study is consistent with two other studies, one using a U.S. patient population and the other using a Denmark patient population. None of the studies determined if the bisphosphonates were taken as prescribed. There are FDA-approved osteoporosis medications besides oral bisphosphonates for persons with risk factors for esophageal cancer. Individuals are advised to discuss their concerns and treatment options with their healthcare professional.
Serious long-term disability and death are significant consequences of osteoporotic fractures. Bisphosphonates have been shown to reduce the risk of fractures in individuals with osteoporosis. For this reason, NOF believes the benefits of bisphosphonate treatment in patients at risk of osteoporotic fracture strongly outweigh the risks from treatment for most individuals. As with all medications, the risks and benefits of treatment must be carefully considered.
View Thread
Since you are a healthy 48 year old premenopausal woman with what appears to be normal bone density, especially for a petite person, you shouldn't need to make any exercise restrictions to prevent fractures at this time. A Z-score above -2.0 is considered "within the expected range".
You should also check to make sure the vitamin D test you had checked your 25OHD level and not your 1,25OH2D level. The 1,25OH2D level has a higher normal range. If your 25OHD level was tested, it may be due to sun exposure. Otherwise, it is probably related to lab error, and will probably be lower when repeated. It is certainly nothing to worry about. TUMS has calcium without vitamin D.View Thread
Most of the fractures that occur in patients with osteoporosis are those of the proximal femur or hip fracture. Femur fractures below the hip account for 10% to 30% of all femur fractures. Some of these fractures are related to osteoporosis in the same way that hip fractures are. The fractures that we are trying to evaluate in relation to bisphosphonate use are a unique subset of these femur fractures.
Currently a task force of leading experts is evaluating the latest research related to these unusual fractures. However, in order to determine what causes these fractures will take time. In order to understand who is more likely to get these fractures, we must evaluate a large enough group of individuals with this type of fracture, and try and determine what common features they share. However, it is clear that these fractures are serious.
It is important to note that these breaks also happen to people who have never taken bisphosphonate medications. We also know that several of the bisphosphonate medications are highly effective for reducing the risk of the majority of hip fractures that occur in people with osteoporosis. If you still have osteoporosis while on bisphosphonate therapy, it is usually recommended to continue your bisphosphonate. If you have been using bisphosphonate therapy for longer than 3-5 years, you should be re-evaluated annually. Your doctor may decide to stop (at least temporarily) your bisphosphonate therapy if you have no new fractures or your bone density has improved.
If you have an unusual ache or pain in your hip or thigh bone, it's important to tell your healthcare provider. There have been rare reports of people having an ache or pain, sometimes for several weeks or even months, before having an unusual break in the thigh bone. If you have any concerns about your osteoporosis treatment plan, it's important to work closely with your healthcare provider to determine the right treatment for you.

Do you want to become a digital marketing master?
Do you want to navigate the seas of online marketing and advertising like Vasco da Gama who reached India and unlocked untold riches?
Do you want to be like the person who discovered cheese by carrying fresh milk in the stomach of a goat and then said, "What the hell? I'll eat that!"
Of course you do!
Then you should stop everything in your life this Wednesday at 12:00 Eastern time (aka noon) and come to 15 Broad St. in Akron Ohio.
It wouldn't be unreasonable to postpone things like:
- Your marriage ceremony
- Your planned c-section
- That dermatologist appointment you had to make 6 months ago
Those would all be legitimate things to move to another day or time just so you can suck the marrow of this rare, juicy bone that will be available to you only in this narrow window of opportunity.
We are a Certified Google Partner.
What does that mean to you?
Well, this week it means you can come to SageRock – 15 Broad St. Akron this Wednesday at noon to learn the secrets of the digital advertising universe as only can be told by people from Google.
Will these people be here at 15 Broad St.? Well, no. Not in the sense you might think them to be here.
If you classify "being here" as requiring the actual skin, bones and blood of those humans to be in the same room as you, then no. They won't be here.
But if you understand the greater meaning of "being here" then they definitely will be here.
They will be using a mystical power very similar to what the Tibetan monks use for transcending space and time to float into the valleys below. The speakers you will witness will be separating their bodies and consciousness in a magical form of astral projection.
Their spirits and minds will be with us in the room. They probably will be using Google Hangouts if they aren't able to meditate deep enough to come into our room with their own mental powers.
But just the same. They will be with us sharing great wisdom and knowledge that will lead us all one step closer into the manifestation we all want to become: rich, successful and powerful.
The prepared presentation will be from noon until 1:00. But then we will stay afterwards to discuss your particular marketing and advertising.
What is something like this worth? Truly?
It's priceless.
The wisdom that will wrap you like a warm cocoon that will transform you into a business butterfly can't be belittled by putting a dollar figure on it.
Therefore it will be free. There will be no cost to you.
And to help you learn even deeper you will be given precious gifts:
- A royal blue Google pen that was likely tested by Sergey Brin (the cofounder of Google) himself.
- A pristine white Google Partners embossed notebook that has surely been blessed individually by Larry Page (the other cofounder of Google).
- $150 Starbucks Gift Card that we will spend all on you even if there is only one person who shows up. You will be showered by dainty delicacies and rich aromatic coffee from the greatest coffee maker of all time.
- And if that isn't enough, we will be giving away a Google chromecast. This tool is literally a portal into times forgotten and times not yet before us. It's ultimately a spaceship and time machine all in one. You simply plug it into your TV and you will be teleported to places unimaginable.
12:00 noon this Wednesday – February 11, 2015.
15 Broad St. Akron Ohio.
Reserve your space quickly before someone else snatches your rare opportunity of business transcendence. Click this button:

MASSENA - Large informational posters were displayed around a meeting room this week in the Massena Town Hall and scientists, conservationists, and other experts were on hand to share updates on steps being taken to address remediation efforts in the Massena Area of Concern.
The two-hour session closed a day long gathering of representatives from the New York state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Council Environment Division, and the St. Lawrence River Restoration Council among others.
The St. Lawrence River at Massena Remedial Action Plan Area of Concern begins above the power dam facilities and seaway locks at the Massena village drinking water intake and follows the river downstream for about 15 miles to the international border, according to the Enviromental Protection Agencys webiste on Great Lakes areas of concern.
Portions of the Grasse, Raquette and St. Regis Rivers, which all empty into the St. Lawrence River, are also included in the Massena Area of Concern. The Cornwall portion of the AOC includes lands in Ontario, Quebec, and the Mohawks extending downstream of the power dam to the eastern outlet of Lake St. Francis.
Pollution from past local area industrial production and waste disposal practices created contaminated sediments and hazardous waste sites that to a large degree have been and are being remediated. The sources and causes include PCBs, mercury, DDE, Mirex, nutrients, metals, physical disturbance, natural erosion and invasive species, the EPA website noted.
Large area remedial projects at Alcoa and General Motors sites have contributed significantly to the restoration and protection of beneficial uses in the AOC. After the Grasse River and limited land-based remedial measures are completed, a reassessment of the status of the beneficial use indicators is to be conducted. When including the installation of water and air pollution discharge equipment, the total costs of the Massena area cleanup will likely exceed one billion dollars. Environmental monitoring will play an important role in verifying that delisting targets and criteria have been achieved. the website added.
DEC spokesman Steven Litwhiler said seven different Beneficial Use Impairments (BUIs) were identified in the Massena Area of Concern.
Our area of concern is identified as there was significant pollution issues, habitat modification issues and theyre basically water based. ... Our public involvement began in 1987, so weve been RAPing (Remedial Action Planning) for about 26 years, he noted.
We started with a Citizen Advisory Committee, which evaluated these beneficial uses to see if they were impaired or not. They came up with a stage 1 document listing which of those uses are impaired. They came up with that in 1990. Stage 2 document identified who caused these beneficial uses to be impaired and what needed to be done so that they were no longer impaired, the DEC spokesman added.
Mr. Litwhiler added that monitoring continues in various areas including fish and wildlife, water chemistry, and studies to determine if the BUIs are still impaired.
DECs statewide AOC coordinator, Gerry Pratt, briefly discussed BUI delisting and how that process occurs.
In terms of the process for BUI delisting, the way it gets started is our local RAP coordinator requests review for BUI delisting. Steve, in coordination with his technical committee, begin the process of assimilating or synthesizing the data or information to put together a delisting document. Other committee members will review their work with existing (information). They agree or do not on whether to move forward with the delisting document, Mr. Pratt explained.
Jen Baker, Great Lakes program specialist for the DEC, said some of the studies have focused on determining whether plankton found in the area waters were toxic or impaired.
Plankton are tiny organisms that drift in the water column and they form the base of the food web. This is one of the reasons why theyre really important. Having a stable base to the food web is important to the entire ecosystem including the larger wildlife that were more familiar with further up in the food chain. Another reason that plankton are important is that theyre a good indicator of environmental conditions. Theyre sensitive to changes in physical conditions and biological conditions, Ms. Baker said.
In 2010, two sites were sampled within (Massenas) AOC. The St. Lawrence River was sampled at the dam in the fall and the Raquette River near Rooseveltown was sampled in the spring, summer, and fall. No statistically significant reproductive or survival effects were observed at these sites.
Environmental Scientist Lee H. Harper has recently been conducting field observations of important bird species in the St. Lawrence River area near Massena. He has been doing this work in order to assess populations, reproduction and production of nest sites.
We basically wanted to identify sentinel avian species inside and outside of the AOC. We considered a number of species and among those we looked at Common Terns, Black Terns, Herring Gulls, Ospreys, and Bald Eagles.
We wanted to map and monitor the nests of these species, we wanted to determine their productivity in terms of the number of chicks fledged per nests and we wanted to collect eggs of these bird species to test them for contaminants, according to Mr. Harper.
Unfortunately thats now been put off for next year because we really had a hard time getting a federal permit, Mr. Harper said. We havent matched Bald Eagles because of its status as a sensitive species, although it may very well be coming off the New York state special species list before long. But nonetheless at this time various agencies requested that we not publish known locations, at least not with dots on a map with certain scales.
St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Council Enviroment Division representative Jessica Jock said tumors found on fish continue to spark concerns for many anglers.
I just wanted to present how the primary public perception is still anything externally seen on a fish is related to contaminants or any impacts to the water. That is something that were going to have to work with as we move forward as to how we want to engage the public and make them aware as we get the data results back. We want to try to indicate that that may not be the case, Ms. Jock said.
We took some notes at the trustee public meetings. We did see a difference on the community perception from Akwesasne, where there were the concerns that were raised by multiple people on different occasions about the consumption of contaminated fish, whereas in Massena, the public perception was more of concern with conservation of fish species, she noted.
So there is still that difference in perception which makes sense if you look at where the area of concern is and where those impacts may be seen, predominantly if youre fishing above the dam, youre less concerned with contaminant consumption issues than downstream in the dams, and I think most fishermen are aware of that.

Chuck Clise scored his first Thunder Valley victory of the season as he snared the annual WW Will Memorial event at the track Saturday night, The 35 lapper, held in honor of the track builder and long time promoter, was the first win for Clise in almost two seasons and his career fourth. In other action, Ray Sheetz survived a furious onslaught from two competitors to grab the Semi Late win, Bill Replogle came from deep in the field for the Pure Stock win, and Martin Vinosky ended the night in 4 Cylinde victory lane.
By the luck of the draw, Shawn Claar was awaded a front row starting position for the Will Memorial race. He got the jump on Steve Everhart and ran off from the field early. Two early cautions closed the field but Claar shot off from Everhart both times. Meanwhile Clise was coming forward.
By the time Clise got by Everhart for second on lap 19, Claar had a huge lead. But the extra distance of the event was to be Claar's undoing. At lap 25, Claar's lead was shrinking fast and Clise was noticeably closing in. Clise whipped by Claar as they field went by on lap 31 and took the lead. Claar tangled with a lapped car one lap later and spun, ending the 22 lap green flag run.
On the restart, Clise shot away from Greg Fetters, but had to survive a one lap shootout after the fourth caution of the race flew for fourth place runner Steve Gibney stopped on the track. Clise survived the last lap charge from Fetters toi take the $3000 win. Fetters was second at the line, followed by Everhart,Doug Glessner, John Britsky, Rick Singleton, Wayne Johnson, Tom Decker, Derek Byler and Gene Kain. Everhart and Claar won the heats.
Ray Sheetz won his third career Semi Late event but he worked hard for it. Jamie Kohan led the first lap until Sheetz got by. Sheetz opened up as the field went ten green flag laps, but all were watching as Greg Cornell and Jimmy Saylor were charging through the pack. By lap six they were in second and third and all over Sheetz.
When the field went green after the only caution on lap ten, Cornell and Saylor raced each other hard for second as well as taking shots at Sheetz. But lap after lap Sheetz held on as the others traded second place back and forth. On the last lap heading for the finish, Saylor made a dramatic outside pass to snare second at the line while Sheetz held on for the win. Cornell settled for third, followed by Joe Kelly, Jeff Benson, Dave Lee, Kohan, Bill Pluta, Brian Duffy and Jason Vangilder. Saylor and Benson won the heats.
Mike Duck, who has led many Pure Stock events at the track this season was again denied victory after a mid race charge by Bill Replogle. Duck ran off from the pole start to an early lead as Replogle clawed thru after starting eighth. Replogle got by Ryan Beckett on lap 11 and zipped by Duck one lap later, After that, Replogle held off Duck for the final 6 laps while Chad Gambol rushed up to finish third. Jim Sacco, Dave Green, Brian Shaw, Rick Potter, Tim Brown, Willy Ling and Terry Mitchell completed the top 10. Gambol, Replogle and Duck won the heats.
For the second week in a row, the Acuras ruled the 4 Cylinder event. Martin Vinosky rushed from fifth to the lead on the first lap then led the distance for the win. Lugnut Louie Orris came from eighth to secong by lap 4 and chased Vinosky to the end. Ray Edwards, Tim Thomas, Ian Will and John Costa trailed. Keith Deeter and Vinosky won the heats.

Jason Grilli Having Spectacular Season, Enjoying Support of Fans
PITTSBURGH (93-7 The FAN) — Pirates Setup Man Jason Grilli was "wired" with Seibel, Starkey and Miller on Sportsradio 93-7 The FAN to talk about his role in the bullpen and how he has revived his career in Pittsburgh.
Grilli said he is having a lot of fin with the Pirates fan base that has completely embraced him since he got here. Jason told us about the struggles early in his career, and what changed and turned him into the dominant back-end of the bullpen pitcher he is today.
We also broached the topic of what happens in the bullpen if Joel Hanrahan gets traded, and Jason said he'd hate to lose Hanrahan because of what a great teammate and closer he is, but he'd be ready to step up if the team needed him.
We wrapped things up talking about the weekend Pedro Alvarez had, and what it's like for the team when he gets hot like this.

WHAT IS THE Rural Development M.A. DEGREE PROGRAM?
First and foremost, this is a distance delivered master's degree program which allows students to pursue graduate study without leaving home!
UAF's MA degree in Rural Development is designed to educate a new generation of leaders for rural Alaska, the circumpolar north, and beyond. It emphasizes indigenous leadership development, orgzanization management, community development, program and project planning and an awareness of international indigenous issues in a dynamic, cross-cultural environment. We welcome you to this exciting new program, and look forward to working with you to achieve your academic and professional goals.
The major objectives of the M.A. program in Rural Development are:
- to educate leaders with a broad understanding of interrelationships between Indigenous and rural communities and the dynamic global economy;
- to offer a high quality program of advanced study for place-committed students in rural Alaska and the circumpolar north, combining personal networking with cutting-edge technology;
- to build strong ties to employers and leaders in Alaska and beyond to support program relevance and student success; and
- to be an innovative model for circumpolar graduate study.
The M.A. program offers new opportunities for higher education in rural Alaska for the 21st century. The year 2011 marks 40 years since the passage of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) and in that time expectations for managers and administrators in rural businesses and organizations have increased and become dramatically more complex. ANCSA corporations have become a major economic engine in Alaska. In 2010 nine of the top ten grossing corporations in Alaska were Native corporations formed under ANCSA. Rural Development M.A. graduates are found in all levels of management of ANCSA corporations including several presidents/CEO's. Other RD M.A. graduates are found at all levels of management in tribal organizations. These organizations are involved in tribal contracting and compacting bringing services worth many millions of dollars to their tribal members.
By earning your MA degree in Rural Development, you are broadening your own horizons, positioning yourself to take leadership roles in these settings, advance in corporations or organizations you are already working in and becoming role models for future generations of Alaska Native and rural leaders.
This Rural Development M.A. Student Guide provides you with basic information about earning your M.A. degree. As a UAF graduate student, you are also expected to familiarize yourself with UAF Graduate School requirements in the current UAF catalog. We encourage you to review these materials carefully and to ask questions of faculty and staff about how to make the most of this program.
Students can also include Peace Corps service in theirĀM.A. Rural DevelopmentĀdegree by applying for the M.A. Rural Development Master's InternationalĀPeace Corps Option.Ā

Despite increasing competition, Spotify is still the top of the pack for streaming music.
With its enormous catalog of on-demand streaming music and its built-in social features for discovering new tunes, Spotify is an absolute must-have for audiophiles and casual listeners alike. But free users, beware of intermittent eardrum-piercing ads.
Commentary: Back in June, I signed up for Apple Music, eager to make it my one-and-only music service. But after just a few weeks, I jumped ship for Spotify. Here's why.
Jimmy Iovine, a top figure at Apple's subscription service, says Apple Music doesn't want to build a business on the backs of artists, even at the expense of hundreds of millions of listeners.
When the pop superstar pulled her music off the streaming music service last year, her protest ended up acquainting a whole new group of people with Spotify, CEO Daniel Ek says.
Spotify's Shanon Cook returns to the show bringing along the latest viral songs infecting the streaming music service. We'll also talk about this week's Apple Music news as well as what we can expect from the Oculus Rift as it joins forces with Microsoft.
How does Apple's streaming service stack up against longtime favorite Spotify? We lay it all out here.
At Google's Nexus press event in San Francisco today, the search giant announced a new family plan that gives up to six people access to the Google Play Music library for $14.99 a month. Check out how it compares to competitive plans from Apple, Spotify, Rdio, and Tidal.
Spotify's Shanon Cook is back on the show bringing along news of a Chromecast support, the latest trending artists on the service and why metal is booming.
In 2014, the Swedish music-streaming service's revenue reportedly rose 45 percent to $1.1 billion, but attempts to build out products nearly doubled its operating loss.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) facts
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are infections of the urethra, bladder, ureters, or the kidneys, which comprise the urinary tract.
- E. coli bacteria cause the majority of UTIs, but many other bacteria, fungi, and parasites may also cause UTIs.
- Females have a higher risk for UTIs than most males, probably because of their anatomy; other risk factors for UTIs include any condition that may impede urine flow (e.g., enlarged prostate, congenital urinary tract abnormalities, and inflammation). Patients with catheters or those who undergo urinary surgery and men with enlarged prostates are at higher risk for UTIs.
- Symptoms and signs of UTI vary somewhat depending on sex, age, and the area of the urinary tract that is infected; some unique symptoms develop depending on the infecting agent.
- UTIs are diagnosed usually by isolating and identifying the urinary pathogen from the patient; there are some home tests available for presumptive diagnosis.
- There are home remedies for UTI, but most may, at best, help reduce the risk or discomfort of UTIs. They are not considered cures for the disease.
- There can be many complications of urinary tract infections, including dehydration, sepsis, kidney stones, kidney failure, and death.
- If treated early and adequately, the prognosis is good for most patients with a UTI.
- Although there is no vaccine available for UTIs, there are many ways a person may reduce the chance of getting a UTI.

How are Changes to Los Angeles Superior Court Local Rules Adopted?
LACBA provides this service so that you can more easily participate in the rule-making process. In California Rules of Court, Rule 10.613, you can find the details about how changes to the Los Angeles Superior Court Local Rules are adopted. These are the Administration of Court-mandated guidelines, which all California county superior courts must follow. The process consists of four steps:
That is the process in a nutshell. There is one exception. To expedite the adoption of a rule change after the 45-day comment period, only the presiding judge from the county superior court can request an amended or new rule sooner than the permitted effective dates. The presiding judge submits a letter of request to the California Supreme Court Chief Justice explaining the necessity for an earlier effective date. If the chief justice approves the alternate effective date, the amended or new rule is adopted and made effective on that alternate date.
Why are we interested? As an attorney, you can benefit when you understand and foresee the changes in local court rules even before the rules become effective. To know how to model your case procedure according to the new court rules that will become effective by the time your case goes to court, go to the Los Angeles Superior Court's Web site and click on Court Rules inside the dark blue horizontal band at the bottom of the main page. (See screen shot below.)
The Court Rules link will take you to a pop-up screen. (See screen shot below.)
The proposed rule revisions listed in the screen link to proposed changes of the court's local rules. These documents serve as guidelines for changes you can expect for the coming date of approval from the AOC, typically either on January 1 or July 1 of every year.

FHP releases names of Fellsmere men killed in motorcycle accident
FHP identifies Fellsmere men killed in
The names of two 23-year-old Fellsmere men killed Sunday night in a motorcycle accident in south Brevard County have been released by the Florida Highway Patrol.
The driver of the motorcycle was Leopoldo Boyzo, 23, of Fellsmere. His passenger was Jose Hernandez, 23, of Fellsmere. Neither was wearing a helmet, according to FHP.
Boyzo was traveling south on Babcock Street, south of Micco Road, about 6:38 p.m. when he pulled out to pass another southbound vehicle. As the motorcycle moved into the northbound lane, it was hit head-on by a Chevrolet SUV driven by Tony Inman, 53, of Grant.
Both Boyzo and Hernandez were ejected and died at the scene, according to FHP.
Inman and a passenger in the SUV were both transported to Palm Bay Hospital with minor injuries.

Although our new Rockdale County commissioners bash the policies and practices of the previous administration, they have now stepped up to the plate by being just as irresponsible. Good ol' boy politics is alive and well with the shenanigans Commissioner Oz Nesbitt and Chair Richard Oden pulled at (Tuesday's) BOC meeting.After a contentious public debate against Roselyn Miller being appointed as the new finance director for our county, these clowns (Nesbitt and Oden) spent the night writing a brand new job description for the finance director's position that only required an associate's degree, not a bachelor's degree. The travesty of these actions is that another applicant, Linda Nabors, who had also applied for the job and had all the qualifications needed, was brushed aside for someone who is less qualified. I certainly wouldn't blame Ms. Nabors for pursuing legal action against the county for discrimination as this is about as clear-cut as it gets when going through the courts. To top it off, Nesbitt and Oden then amended the agenda to include the new job description to be officially in place before they went on to the voting of Ms. Miller. With all the economic crisis we are supposed to be in as a county, it makes absolutely no sense to play favoritism over the true needs of the county. If our bondholders get wind of this, they can lower our bond rating or - even worse - call in their loans, bankrupting the county. Maybe that wouldn't be so bad if it gets these incompetents out of office. They have been duly elected to serve the residents of our county, not play politics with the taxpayers money.

"I am already an old grandma…I'm…" Integra said, deprecatingly.
"That's fine with me," Alucard answered, honestly, looking up at his master.
Her expression changed and Integra bit into her finger, held it out to the vampire on the floor, letting it drip into his mouth.
"Welcome home count,"
"I am home, my countess."
Seras took this as an opportunity to quietly step out, leaving her masters to themselves.
Feeling properly nourished for the first time in years, Alucard stood. He regarded his Master for a few moments. She was as beautiful as ever and from his 'welcome,' he was still proud to be her servant. The wrinkles and age related imperfections did not detract from her beauty. Despite her age, she was as quick as she ever was, if not more. Only her appearance had changed. Under it all, she was still the same woman he left all those years ago. He even liked the eye patch.

Case Number: 80034
Subject: John and Jane Doe, subjects would like to remain anonymous; human female impregnated by male vampire. Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, Director of the Hellsing Organization and Commander of the Hellsing Army would like to study the effects of a vampiric pregnancy with a human female and possibly the resulting child, a dhampir, pending the mother's consent. The goal is to better understand vampire biology. This will be deemed a high risk pregnancy due to differing biology's of mother and child. I will be meeting with the mother on a weekly basis to record her symptoms. I found an obstetrician that will be with the mother throughout the pregnancy. However, she must be surveyed and approved by the mother's security team and bodyguards. The process will not be complete for some weeks in which I will be in charge, in mother is a high ranking government official.

Seras Victoria never thought about her Master's past life, before he became a vampire. She never wondered how he became the great vampire he is today or ever realized what his name spelled backwards meant. Seras just assumed it was just a name the Hellsing family gave him when they subjugated him.
She didn't think about her own past, even when she had a pulse. Why would she wonder about his? The bond that he established when he turned her was a familial one. He was like another father to her; an absolutely bats shit insane, 'I shall set you ablaze' father. Children never inquired about their parents past, right?
Seras knew that something was going on between her Master and Sir Integra, much more than master and servant. She didn't dare put a name to it, it wasn't her place. However, recently, Integra had been wearing a silver signet ring with a dragon e

Tattoos: I have Edgar Allan Poe's signature on my right arm, just below the joint. I am right handed and a writer. Poe went through Hell and back, but went down in history. If I can handle the shit my own life throws at me, I can too.
I am...weird. I am a ghost hunter, along with most of my immediate family. We celebrate Halloween like most people celebrate Christmas...think Halloween Town from Nightmare Before Christmas and you have my childhood...or my life now! Really, when my family and I celebrate Christmas, it's like Halloween Town's citizens trying to do the same thing. We give holly-jolly things a creepy spin!) Basically, I am offbeat and I love it! I appreciate anything vintage more than I do anything modern. I hate today's culture and I hate today's fashions.

Problems: I've been diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and General Anxiety Disorder. Because of these, I also have depression. The OCD can manifest in ways like needing to have anything that is Poe or Snape related or of course, having to clean. My anxiety can show up as social anxiety or irational fears. I really hate it when people think that me having an anxiety attack is funny and try to cause one! That's like causing a seizure in someone who is epileptic! Because of these, I can wake up fine one day and go to bed suicidal. I am on an antidepressant/anti anxiety medication. I have more good days than bad, but when I have a bad day, it's bad! However, I've had many people tell me I have several angels and spirits protecting me, so I'm not going to let them down by killing myself.
Smoke/Drink: Never have, never will. I have a genetic component for alcoholism and I've seen cancer at it's worst.
Pets: I have two ten year old short haired cats, a tabby named Princess Wednesday (as in Wednesday Addams) and a tuxedo cat named Scooter Renfield (as in the Dracula character) and a two year old dog, a beagle and basset hound mixed named Belladogga 'Bella' Lugosi. Belladogga as in the belladonna plant (My family and I are Wiccan) and Lugosi as in Bela Lugosi, the actor famous for playing Dracula. Princess Wednesday because she has the same temperament as Wednesday Addams. Scooter Renfield because he has a penchant for torturing bugs before he eats them and generally acts like a madman. Belladogga Lugosi just came out of nowhere and doesn't refer to her personality. The only person that is afraid of her is the mailman. Last but not least, there is Big Bella. She is a full Basset Hound and weighed in at 72 pounds when we adopted her! She's one a diet right now. When she snores, she legitimately sounds like a human!

Greenwood dominates Hanna
As usual, T.L. Hanna got plenty from Will Gay Friday night. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough against a very good Greenwood team.
The Eagles pulled away in the second half for a 31-0 win in Hanna's home finale.
Greenwood improved to 9-1, 5-0 in Region 1-4A, while Hanna fell to 2-8, 1-4. Hanna will finish its season next Friday by traveling to rival Westside.
"Will has been tremendous for us," Hanna coach Kenya Fouch said. "We just haven't had that second or third offensive option to go with him."
Gay, who has committed to play at Wofford next season, added to his totals as Hanna's all-time leading rusher, a mark he set last week. He had 117 rushing yards on 25 carries.
"He's the best back we've played against — or will play against — this year," Greenwood coach Gene Cathcart said.
But Hanna couldn't support Gay with a consistent passing game; quarterback Brent Kinley completed three of nine passes for 22 yards.
Fouch said his team "wasn't intimidated" by the Eagles, but admitted the lack of air attack was a problem, as were a pair of fumbles.
Greenwood put the game away early in the second half. Hanna gained only two yards on its first possession, and a poor 11-yard punt gave the Eagles the ball at the Yellow Jackets' 33.
Eagle quarterback Jackson Miles scrambled 12 yards for a touchdown, giving Greenwood a 17-0 lead three minutes into the half.
The Eagles' next possession also started in Hanna territory, at the 48. The Eagles moved on the ground and converted a pair of third downs. On second and goal from the two, Miles took a keeper into the end zone for a 24-0 lead with 1:12 left in the quarter, and the game was as good as over.
Greenwood held a 10-0 halftime lead following a half dominated by ground games on both sides.
"That showed what a good coach Kenya Fouch is," Cathcart said. "We really had to scrap for that, and that says something given the year they've had. He still has them playing hard."
The Eagles wasted little time scoring on the game's first possession.
On the second play from scrimmage, quarterback Jackson Miles hooked up with Carson Simpson for a 28-yard gain to the Hanna 29.
Following a series of grinding rushing plays, Faren Jackson finished the drive on third and five from the Hanna 9, eluding a host of Jacket tacklers for a nine-yard score, giving Greenwood a 7-0 lead with 9:24 left in the first quarter.
A roughing the punter penalty extended Hanna's first drive, and the Yellow Jackets got inside the Greenwood 20 before the drive stalled. A 37-yard field goal try was tipped at the line of scrimmage and fell well short.
Greenwood drove to the Hanna 3 before a muffed exchange ended its next threat; Hanna dove on it, ending the drive with just over two minutes left in the half.
Hanna couldn't do anything with the ball, and the Eagles got one more shot.
Evin Sims found tailback Devante Parks streaking across the middle on third and 4 at the Hanna 27, and he picked up 22 yards to the Jackets' 5.
Greenwood couldn't connect on a trio of passes into the end zone, and Matt McManis kicked a 27-yard field goal with 6.7 seconds left in the half for a 10-point lead.

IRVINE, Calif. - Senior goalkeeper Ryan Vint (Plymouth, Minn.) tied his career high with six saves, but the University of Wisconsin men's soccer team fell 1-0 to No. 25 UC Irvine in the final game of the UC Irvine College Classic on Monday night.
"Tonight's outcome was a fair result," head coach John Trask said. "UC Irvine is a high caliber NCAA tournament team. Our guys learned some lessons tonight, and we will take that with us as we move forward."
UC Irvine (3-0) scored the game-winner at the 13:06 mark of the game when Corey Attaway tallied his second goal of the season on a header in the box. Jimmy Turner picked up the assist off a throw-in as the Anteaters took the early lead. Wisconsin (1-1) was led by Vint, who joined senior Aaron Nichols (Woodstock, Ill.) and freshman Chris Prince (Naperville, Ill.) on the UC Irvine College Classic all-tournament team after UW opened the tournament with a 2-1 win over Santa Clara.The Anteaters outshot the Badgers 13-4, including a 7-2 edge in shots on goal. Freshman Paul Yonga (Brooklyn Park, Minn.) had UW's lone shot on goal of the first half just 6:29 into the game, and senior Jon Rzepka (Kentwood, Mich.) posted a scoring opportunity in the second half. Freshmen Luke Goodnetter (Elm Grove, Wis.) and Joey Tennyson (Milwaukee, Wis.) saw their first collegiate action against the Anteaters. Of Trask's 13 true freshmen, seven have now seen playing time in the Badgers' first two matches of the season. Juniors Colin Mani (Madison, Wis.) and Arnel Zahirovic (Melbourne, Australia) and UCI's Miguel Ibarra all picked up yellow cards in the match. Wisconsin had 11 fouls to UC Irvine's eight in the game. The Badgers travel to Florida for a pair of matches this weekend. UW faces Florida International on Friday at 6 p.m. CT before meeting Florida Atlantic on Sunday at 10:30 a.m. CT.

Tampa, Fla. -- Mike DePue has build a small-class power in 2A at Robinson thanks to a strong senior class. Unfortunately, that senior class fell one game short of playing for a state championship for the second straight season.
Robinson lost to Glades Central in south Tampa 35-10.
The Knights started strong when Frankie Williams scored from 38 yards out to give Robinson a 7-0 lead after their opening drive. But Glades Central was too much to handle.
Jamarious Rowley gave them a 14-7 lead after a pair of first half touchdowns.
Aaron Baker iced the game when his 39-yard touchdown stretched the lead to 21-7.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
Having kids again in the house has forced me to relearn many lessons I had let slip to the back of my mind. I have also gotten to learn new ones along the way.
I have found out that bubble gum will not come out of Velcro.
I have been reminded that "I have to throw up!" is not a warning but an announcement. Once that is uttered you will not have enough time to pull the car over to the side of the road or get out of the way.
I now have rediscovered that grandma kisses are just as magical in fixing boo-boos as a mother's are. This even applies to a tough little five year old boy at Junior Jazz practice when he fell down and his own mom wasn't there to fix him.
I was reminded that it can be very dangerous to say, "Yeah sure." when you aren't really listening, but watching the news instead. It's amazing how many bubbles a half full bottle of shampoo can produce in a tub of water.
I also remember it's too hard to be mad when I did say okay and I'm looking at two heads poking out of all the suds wearing bubble beards and asking " Do we look like grandpa?"
It didn't take me too long to recall that when a child walks by you very fast while making eye contact the entire time, they are trying to sneak something past you. It takes them years before they understand how you know this.
Water is a magnet beyond any child's self control. If there is water there will be wet kids and dogs. And of course, one can never forget that mud is magical and any child can find some even in the driest of days.
Also the same kid who could not hear you when you reminded them to take out the garbage when you were standing right next to them will be able to hear the potato chip bag opening when they are three rooms away with the TV on and come running to ask for some.
And despite the fact they might tell you that you embarrass them by cheering too loud at the soccer game, the minute you start chatting with another parent on the sideline they will notice and run by to ask if you saw them kick the ball.
I also remember that even though Barbie is unrealistically skinny, she does not look good naked even though most of the Barbies we have end up that way.
There are an awful lot of us in our second stint at parenting. Every day I run into someone else who is raising or helping raise their grandkids.
It is a nationwide phenomena that is garnering national media attention.
We are changing the way we expected to spend our futures, but it has its own rewards as well. If you are in this situation, make sure you have good support and help.

The new treatment would be a less invasive way to safeguard a woman's chances of having babies than the current method.
Our perceptions on health matters repeatedly don't line up with reality, making reducing health care spending very difficult.
The gap grows between food folklore and science on cancer.
New research that questions the value of regular screening for breast cancer seems bound to produce public confusion and anger.
A 25-year study involving 90,000 women has found that the breast-cancer screenings did not lower the death rate from the disease and had harms.

How to Change Language in WinRAR
WinRAR is one of the most popular and ubiquitous file archiving tools on the internet, and contains enough features to suit the needs of the majority of users. Unfortunately, WinRAR does not offer multi-language support, and if your installation is (for whatever reason) in the wrong language, there is only one way to fix this – you must start over from scratch. It is not possible to switch between languages via a settings or preferences menu.
Follow the steps below to properly cleanse your system of WinRAR and re-install the latest version in the correct language.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- 1
Firstly, it is necessary to remove all traces of the current version of WinRAR. This will help to ensure there are no conflicts that sometimes occur when installing over old versions of applications.
Click the Start button in Windows and choose Control Panel. Click Uninstall a Program. A list of currently installed applications appears.
- 2
Locate WinRAR in the list of programs and click to select it, then click Uninstall on the top menu. The uninstall process commences, and there may be prompts which require your input. After a few moments, WinRAR is removed from your system.
- 3
Optionally run a tool like CCleaner to remove old registry entries at this stage. This can also help to ensure no old application elements are retained in the system, and keeps the registry in good shape.
Launch CCleaner, click the Registry tab and run a scan. When the summary appears, choose Fix Selected Issues.
- 4
Download WinRAR from the above link for the English installation, or in your internet browser, navigate to http://www.win-rar.com/download.html. This is the official download page for all the different language variants of WinRAR. Select the correct version for your needs and click the adjacent WinRAR link. On the next page, click the Download Now link to transfer the installer file locally to your PC.
- 5
After a few minutes (depending on your internet connection), the installer file will be available in your download folder (the location of this will vary depending on which browser you are using and how it has been configured). Locate the installer and double-click to launch it.
- 6
Follow the on-screen prompts through the installation process. After a few moments, WinRAR will be freshly installed on your system. Locate the shortcut on your desktop, quick launch bar or Start menu, and click to start the application. You should find the language is now the correct one.

Being built on the same core as Windows 8, Microsoft's Windows Phone 8 platform comes with Internet Explorer 10 as well, though with the mobile version of the application, and not with the full desktop software.
There are a lot of enhancements packed inside the app for all users to enjoy, and Microsoft has decided to provide us with a better glimpse at what it has to offer.
The application retails the familiar look of Internet Explorer in Windows Phone, though it brings along a more solid design.
The app offers more room for displaying sites, just as in Windows Phone 7.5, while also keeping the smart address bar, tabbed browsing, and pinned sites from that release, along with other features.
However, there are also a variety of changes that Internet Explorer 10 brings along in Windows Phone 8, and Microsoft's Amin Lakhani presents some of them in a recent blog post.
In addition to under-the-hood enhancements, the new flavor of the mobile browser arrives on devices with new sharing capabilities, taking advantage of the included NFC capabilities of a smartphone. Simply hit Tap+Send in the Sharing menu.
"And this isn't just for two Windows Phones. Since NFC is an industry standard, you can share with any smartphone—or even a Windows 8 PC—that supports the technology," Lakhani explains.
There's also the Data Sense feature in Windows Phone 8, which was designed to ensure that users keep an eye on their monthly data usage on a new device.
"Where available, Data Sense can help reduce your data consumption while browsing the web without slowing things down or changing how sites appear. With Data Sense enabled, we estimate that you'll be able to load up to 45% more web pages on the same data plan," said blog post continues.
IE10 also sports a series of safety and privacy improvements, including a SmartScreen Filter, which checks sites visited on the phone to make sure that they won't harm the device.
Furthermore, the app arrives on devices with Do Not Track, which tells websites that users do not want their information to be collected. The feature is automatically turned on when choosing the "recommended" setup option when accessing Internet Explorer 10 for the first time.
Users can also configure the address bar button in IE10 through going to More > Settings. From there, they will be able "to configure the address bar button, and make it refresh/stop (default), favorites, or tabs. If you choose tabs, we'll also show a count of the number of tabs you have open," Lakhani notes.
Windows Phone 8's Internet Explorer 10 also comes with a Find on Page feature, identical with the one available in Windows 8, offering a fast and robust experience.

The NGC Universal ID is a four digit alphanumeric that groups coins based on a unique combination of date, mintmark, denomination and striking process (MS, PF, or SP). These IDs are a simple organization of all coins prior to variety attribution and grading.
With a sizeable original mintage of 11.3 million pieces, the 1926 does not seem like a coin that would be hailed as rare, or even scarce, in most grades. Nevertheless, specialists in this series realize that the 1926 is as poorly produced as many S-mint issues in this series, and only about 10% (per Cline) of the original mintage was produced with Full Head definition.

Recently, Sierra Vista has been experiencing preventable vehicle burglaries. Many of these burglaries, and the resulting losses to the victims, can be prevented with some simple actions on everyone's part.
Don't become the victim of a vehicle burglary. Use simple tips to keep valuables safe.
Be sure to roll up windows and always lock all doors when exiting a vehicle. Think "Lock it or lose it!â€
Physically check vehicle doors before leaving to ensure they are closed and locked.
Never leave valuables such as purses, wallets, cell phones, computers, loose change, GPS systems or CDs in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The trunk is a more secure storage place. Those who choose to keep valuables in the trunk should deactivate the interior trunk release.
Put away charging cables. Even if the criminal can't see the valuable item, the charger may send a signal to the criminal that the valuable item is somewhere in the car.
If the car stereo has a detachable faceplate, be sure to detach it and store it in a secure place.
Remember that a loud car stereo is not only illegal; it advertises the sound system to criminals.
Park in well-lit, well-traveled areas away from shrubbery that would obscure the view of the vehicle.
Those who use an interior windshield sunshade, be sure to park in a manner that does not limit the view inside the vehicle such as backing against a solid wall.
Those who have them should use car alarms and garages.
Those who live on Fort Huachuca should also make it a habit to follow these tips.

Givaudan Q3, Nine-month 2010 Sales
Posted: October 8, 2010
page 2 of 2
Fragrance ingredient sales grew by 12.6% in local currencies, boosted by a high level of demand, particularly for specialties. Sales growth includes some restocking.
Flavor division sales for the first nine months and third quarter of 2010 totaled CHF 1,744 million (up 6.5%) and CHF 562 million (up 3.8%), respectively. Results were driven by all four regions and all major segments, particularly beverage, snacks and sweet goods. Developing markets accounted for nearly 40% of sales, while mature markets were driven by volume gains in existing products and new wins. Sales for Asia-Pacific increased by 9.3% in local currencies; China, Indonesia and India recorded strong growth in the beverage, snack and sweet goods segments. All segments contributed to gains in mature markets, particularly in Japan. Givaudan has also reported sales gains in Europe of 4.8% in local currency. New wins in Africa and Middle East and improved economic environment in Eastern Europe also contributed to positive results. Negatively impacting mature markets were Ireland, Great Britain and Northern Europe. North American results (up 8.1% in local currencies) were boosted by new wins in beverage, dairy and sweet goods. The double-digit growth for the quarter was the result of the strong growth of existing products and new wins. Latin American sales have grown 16.9% for the first nine months of the year. All markets are above last year, led by Brazil and Argentina. Growth has occurred across all segments, particularly in beverage, dairy and sweet goods.

Quotient Spaces of Boundedly Rational Types
By identifying types whose low-order beliefs - up to level â"" i - about the state of nature coincide, we obtain quotient type spaces that are typically smaller than the original ones, preserve basic topological properties, and allow standard equilibrium analysis even under bounded reasoning. Our Bayesian Nash (â"" i; â"" ii )-equilibria capture players' inability to distinguish types belonging to the same equivalence class. The case with uncertainty about the vector of levels (â"" i; â"" ii ) is also analyzed. Two examples illustrate the constructions.

South Carolina isn't a border state, yet its radio and television airwaves will soon be saturated with advertisements by groups leading the charge both for and against a broad immigration overhaul taking shape in Congress.
The reason: The state is home to two Republican lawmakers who are playing central roles in the immigration effort, both of them preparing to face voters in the 2014 elections. Sen. Lindsey Graham is one of a bipartisan group of eight senators drafting immigration legislation that would provide a path to citizenship for the 11 million undocumented immigrants estimated to be living in the United States.
And Republican Rep. Trey Gowdy of South Carolina chairs the House subcommittee that has jurisdiction over immigration legislation in his chamber, where another bipartisan group of lawmakers is working on a plan.
NumbersUSA, a leading opponent of a sweeping immigration rewrite, last month began airing radio spots against Graham throughout South Carolina, backed by a six-figure ad buy — Bloomberg was first to report this.
"Who elected Lindsey Graham to demand millions more immigrant workers when so many South Carolinians are jobless?" the ad asks.
A group of evangelical organizations that are pressing for a measure that legalizes undocumented immigrants announced today that they were launching a five-figure ad buy of their own that seeks to bolster Graham's position.
"Christ calls us evangelicals to compassion and justice, so please join a growing movement of Christians asking our political leaders for immigration solutions rooted in Bible values," Rev. Jim Goodroe, who hails from Gowdy's district, says in the ad.
While neither Graham's nor Gowdy's name is mentioned, the group made it clear its object was in large part to insulate Graham from criticism for his role in the immigration effort, and persuade Gowdy that he wouldn't pay a political price for backing it.
"It's up to us to convince him that the majority of the members of his district support comprehensive immigration reform, and we believe they do," said Richard Land, president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.
A separate group of Republicans backing a broad immigration overhaul also announced today it was spending $60,000 to begin airing television ads in the state touting the economic benefits of immigration to South Carolina and praising Graham for leading the charge to revamp the system. Republicans for Immigration Reform, a super political action committee formed to back Republicans backing the legislative effort, is teaming with the Partnership for a New American Economy on the effort.
Jeremy Robbins, the partnership's director, said the group was working to get business leaders to back lawmakers who would have to take tough votes to push through a broad immigration rewrite.
"Lindsey Graham for years has shown incredible courage to lead on this issue, at real potential cost to himself," Robbins said.
Republicans for Immigration Reform Treasurer Charlie Spies said his group would go so far as to "step into primaries and defend" Republicans if they were being attacked for supporting the effort.
The partnership is co-chaired by New York Mayor City Michael Bloomberg, the majority owner of Bloomberg LP, parent of Bloomberg News.
