Sussex coach Mark Robinson admits he is considering a "job share" for the role of overseas player in the coming season.
Like most counties hunting for overseas replacements, Sussex are waiting until after the Indian Premier League auction on January 19 before considering their next move.
Last season Rana Naved played for the first six weeks of the campaign before giving way to fellow Pakistani Yasir Arafat. Neither is in the IPL draft and are unlikely to be involved in the World Cup so it could be a case of 'better the devil you know' as far as Robinson is concerned.
He said: "There is the possibility of bringing Rana back for part of the season and we are still talking to Yasir. Can one overseas player do the whole summer? You have to ask yourself if they can produce game after game at the levels you would want as a coach. Given the nature of our domestic schedule, I'm not sure.
"As far as the overseas player slot is concerned, I am like a lot of coaches. There are lots of factors to consider and we are in limbo a bit with a lot happening which is out of our control. But after the IPL auction things should be clearer."
Four Sussex players – Luke Wright, Mike Yardy, Matt Prior and Monty Panesar – have put themselves forward for the IPL auction and with Wright, Yardy and possibly Prior expected to be involved in England's World Cup campaign, Robinson is resigned to being without a lot of his big names in pre-season.
"You can't deny the players the opportunity to play in the IPL. We might lose all four but there is also a good chance that they could all be available," added Robinson.
"But it might be that we won't have the whole squad together until April 3 – which is five days before we play our first County Championship game. That is not ideal, of course, but it does mean that others will get opportunity when we go to Abu Dhabi for our pre-season programme."
New signing Amjad Khan, meanwhile, is among a group of players heading to Port Elizabeth for a five-week training camp starting on January 8 with second-team coach Mark Davis.

7/10/14 23:24 Mary:
Oooh, this set is so pretty! I have actually never tried Laura Mercier products before, would you recommend? I love the colors and it seems like a pretty good value for her products.
7/11/14 11:12 Christina:
Sigh, I so wanted to love this set, but the promo image colors are not quite accurate, at least for some of the eyeshadows. Cherrywood is actually a reddish bronze color, maroon-like, and Stone Sable pretty much looks like the regular Sable, just a bit more grey. I was really looking forward to a combination of soft plummy taupes, blues, and peaches together. It might look different once it's on my eyes.
I will say everything is super pigmented and the texture was fabulous. The blushes pack quite a bit of punch, but they can easily by buffed out, from what I can tell playing with it on my hands.
7/11/14 15:30 Lisa:
Laura Mercier is so hit or miss for me, especially their eyeshadows. I know first hand that Guava, at least on my skin, does NOT show up. I picked it up in hopes it would be a soft all over eye color but I can pack on a ton and have it disappear into the skin. I love her lip products usually though!

3 Responses to "Part Three: Emergence"
When I told a friend of mine I was going to ACEN, he told me about your comic. Since I was unable to sleep, for being overly excited, I decided to check it out. It's easily one of the best written and stylized comics I've read. I love the plot and characters to this point, wishing I had more time to read before going on a very long car ride. I hope to be able to find you there, and see what you got to offer.
What Jacob said. I keep thinking I'm going to get caught up so I can leave some superlatives on the current page. In the meantime, I want to say this is a totally compelling story, with terrific art and exhaustively researched accuracy.
That. Is. Awesome. As is the rest of the story. Thank you!

Parents killed, son injured in Tuesday morning crash in Port St. Lucie | Photo gallery, Videos, Map
PORT ST. LUCIE — The force of impact left a Chrysler PT Cruiser mangled, at the base of a utility pole, near the southwest corner of Southwest Bayshore Boulevard and Southwest Thornhill Drive.
The smashed vehicle was the result of a two-vehicle crash that claimed the lives of a mother and father, leaving their adult son with severe leg injuries, according to police.
Mary Lasecki, 58, and her 60-year-old husband, John Lasecki, died in the 9:53 a.m. crash that took rescue crews more than an hour to free their son, John Lasecki, 38, from the wreckage.
The deadly crash happened as Mary Lasecki drove the 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser south on Southwest Bayshore Boulevard, with her husband in the front passenger seat and son in back. The Laseckis have a listed address in the 800 block of Southwest Haas Avenue in Port St. Lucie.
Meanwhile, Bart Cincotta was behind the wheel of a 2004 Chrysler Pacifica traveling north on Southwest Bayshore Boulevard. Cincotta, 68, was trying to turn left, heading west, onto Southwest Thornhill Drive.
"As the two went through the intersection, the Pacifica hit the quarter end of the PT Cruiser which caused it to spin out of control and then ultimately slam into the (utility) pole," said Master Sgt. Frank Sabol, Port St. Lucie police spokesman at the scene.
Cincotta, the only person in the Pacifica, sustained minor injuries.
Sabol said the investigation was just beginning and couldn't indicate who was at fault.
No one answered the door at the Lasecki home Tuesday afternoon.
Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call police at 772-871-5001 or 911.

Hudson River Almanac June 8 - June 14, 2013
Our third week of periodical cicada "music" ended with no slackening of intensity. Cicadas were not present everywhere in the watershed, but where they were, the sight was impressive and the sound often deafening. The downriver flight of a white pelican was captured by Almanac contributors.
6/14 - Town of Warwick, HRM 41: I came upon a black tern foraging over the southern impoundment of Liberty Marsh on Oil City Road.
- Sean Camillieri
[The Edgar A. Mearns Club checklist of Orange County birds lists the black tern as rare in spring and fall migration. New York is on the southeastern edge of this handsome tern's breeding range. Nesting colonies once occurred at 56 sites along the shores of Lake Ontario, in marshes along the St. Lawrence River, and inland in marshes of western, central and northwestern New York. Today, approximately 200 nesting pairs occur at less than 20 of the historic breeding sites, a decline mainly due to habitat loss and degradation. The species is listed as endangered in New York State. Curt McDermott, Steve Stanne.]
6/8 - Stuyvesant, HRM 127: I heard a "pocket" of cicadas in the woods along Hollow Road. There is something about the continuous background sound of thousands of cicadas, combined with the loud buzzing of nearby individuals, that is fascinating. The grass, shrubs, and trees along the roadside were full of hundreds of cicadas in various stages of development. There were empty exoskeletons, cicadas just emerging, some newly emerged individuals that were pale white, and the classic black and orange adults. One word describes the sound and sight of these creatures: "Incredible!"
- Jesse Jaycox
6/8 - Saugerties, HRM 102: I went canoeing on the lower Esopus after the big rain. The water was very high and muddy and there was a pretty fair current. On my return, I was greeted by three loud slaps from a beaver that apparently was very unhappy with me encroaching in his space.
- Glenn Countryman
6/8 - Hyde Park, HRM 82: Some leftover bird seed in our backyard made for a zoo-like menagerie. From parts unknown, but likely from nearby backyard coops, a beautiful iridescent bluish-green peacock showed up this morning alongside one of our local white-tailed deer. The peacock gracefully picked ticks and bugs out of our lawn.
- Dave Lindemann
6/8 - Crum Elbow Creek, HRM 82: Volunteers began the Crum Elbow Creek Eel Ladder Project today. After the hugely successful Hudson River Glass Eel Project (over 100,00 glass eels netted, counted, and released upstream this spring), we now count the older and larger (three- to six-inch-long) elvers that are "stuck in traffic" at the base of the Vanderbilt Mansion dam, awaiting optimal conditions to ascend upstream. The ladder is actually a large PVC pipe, lined with mesh material kept awash via a siphon hose from above the dam; the top of the ladder empties into a barrel for retrieval, counting, and upstream release. Earlier this week, three dozen elvers were counted. Today, after the passage of Tropical Storm Andrea's remnants, only four were found. The thundering water flow might have kept many more further downstream.
- Dave Lindemann
6/8 - Town of Poughkeepsie: I arrived at the nesting site (NY62) in mid-morning. The eaglet was feeding in the nest and, when finished, hopped up to what seems to be its preferred perch about two feet above the nest.
- Tom McDowell
6/8 - Town of Wappinger, HRM 67: It rained for 37 hours (2.4 inches) - a backhand from Andrea. When it stopped at 6:00 AM, the woods were totally silent: no cicadas, no tree frogs, no crickets, no birds. At 6:30, like a switch has been thrown, the cicadas began, distant but in total unison. Two hours later the trills and chatter were as loud as ever and hundreds of cicadas were flying in every direction. Discarded nymph casings hung on every other leaf on our hardwoods; the rest held adults.
- Tom Lake
6/9 - Saugerties, HRM 102: A Mississippi kite (possibly two) has been seen over the last week at Kaatsbaan. It's been feasting on cicadas. Someone claims to have seen one bird carrying sticks, which suggests that they may be nesting nearby.
- Rich Guthrie
6/9 - Tivoli Bay, HRM 100-99: As I kayaked Tivoli Bays, the beauty of the day was interrupted by the din of millions of cicadas, many of which were floating on the surface of the water frantically trying to regain flight. A good dinner for the many birds and possibly even for the fish. There was also a very large turtle sunning himself on a large log protruding from the water. The bay is beautiful.
- Glenn Countryman
6/9 - Hyde Park, HRM 82: My first hummingbird of the year just arrived. Usually they are here two weeks earlier while the wild columbine is still in bloom. But this time they missed the flowers by their late arrival. Maybe the cool weather kept them away.
- Vince Asher
6/9 - Poughkeepsie, HRM 75: I received a report of a white pelican seen by several non-birders at the Poughkeepsie Yacht Club this evening. Since they are a pretty recognizable species, and the members of the club have seen pelicans elsewhere, I believe the report to be credible.
- Rich Guthrie
6/9 - Town of Wappinger: The eaglet in nest NY62 seems to be "branching" on a minimal basis. I met someone who had photographed an immature eagle flying to the nest tree. She later decided that the bird was a yearling and not the nestling. Again this week I spotted the adult female (N42) fishing in Wappinger Creek (little more than a mile south of the nest) with an immature.
- Tom McDowell
[These varied but consistent observations of a second immature may be evidence that helps us unravel the puzzle of the "early fledge" on May 26. Tom Lake.]
6/9 - Storm King, HRM 56: Route 218 was closed to traffic due to heavy rain last night so I hiked up to the parking area on the mountain's flank. Adjacent to the pulloff were the remains of a homing pigeon, recently deceased, still intact except for the lack of soft body parts. The wings, skeleton, and banded legs were still all connected, and surrounded by lots of loose feathers. Notable also was the missing head. No ants, still limber - the pigeon had probably met its fate within the previous hour or so. Close by was the juvenile peregrine falcon from the Storm King nest trying to climb the rock face. I was wondering how well the young falcon could fly when it suddenly took off toward Bannerman's Island, flying like it had been on the wing for years. After about ten minutes it returned to the same area. The youngster does well in the air but needs to work on the landing part. [Photo of immature peregrine falcon by Mike Pogue.]
- Mike Pogue
6/9 - Putnam County, HRM 55: The mountain laurel had begun to bloom along Canopus Lake in Fahnestock Park. I saw two large red-eared sliders basking with the painted turtles near the central dam separating the two sections of the lake.
- Stephen Seymour
6/9 - Croton Point, HRM 35-34: During a late afternoon walk on the landfill, I was able to see all four target birds that appear to be breeding in the park: savannah and grasshopper sparrows, bobolink, and eastern meadowlark. Thanks are due to several people working for Westchester County to eliminate mowing on the landfill except adjacent to the methane posts.
- Larry Trachtenberg
6/10 - Minerva, HRM 284: I took a late day hike on the beginning of the Roosevelt Truck Trail and came upon a male black-backed woodpecker, a pair of yellow-bellied sapsuckers carrying food, a vocal boreal chickadee, a yellow-bellied flycatcher, and a Swainson's thrush among other expected boreal habitat species. A broad-winged hawk vocalized near the railroad bed.
- Joan E. Collins
6/10 - Defreestville, Rensselaer County, HRM 142: I arrived at the Van Alen House for work this morning and saw a large and colorful moth on the screen window. Jesse Jaycox and Bob Schmidt identified it as a male Io moth (Automeris io).The Luykas Van Alen house, built in 1737 in the style of eighteenth century rural residences in the Netherlands, is on the National Register of Historic Places. [Photo of Io moth by Roberta Jeracka.]
- Roberta S. Jeracka
6/10 - Norrie Point, HRM 85: In less than a week, the water chestnut had taken over the south side bay. Just two days following the new moon, the ebb tide was extremely low and several great blue herons stalked the tide pools, zeroing in on killifish. Forty Canada geese foraged in the slightly deeper water and throughout the bay, the occasional explosion reminded us that the carp were spawning.
- Tom Lake, T.R. Jackson
[Eurasian water chestnut (Trapa natans) is an invasive freshwater aquatic plant that is native to Europe and Asia. It is believed that it was introduced to the Hudson River watershed in the late nineteenth century. Their seeds have four sharp spikes, an adaptation for dispersal, that make walking barefoot on Hudson River beaches dangerous. Tom Lake.]
6/10 - Town of Poughkeepsie, HRM 68: Not long after sunrise, as I was watching three turkey vultures leave their night roost, they were set upon by a crow. Crows can be bullies. The turkey vultures were no threat; they were simply looking for a lift on an early morning thermal. The crow was relentless, using its superior maneuverability to bump and harass. Later, at the New Hamburg train station, I watched the bully get its just reward, as a much smaller eastern kingbird (Tyrannus tyrannus - Greek for "master") chased a crow the length of the commuter parking lot.
- Tom Lake
6/10 - Manhattan, HRM 5: While up on the roof terrace of our large apartment building in midtown, we've seen a pair of northern mockingbirds, always with tidbits in their bills, flying back and forth into a small but dense (what we think is a casuarina) tree that sits in a pot by the railing - one of the many planters that adorn the terrace. Unlikely spot though it seems to be, on the 34th floor with numerous tenants frequently visiting the adjacent area to picnic and sunbathe, we suspected that the birds had nonetheless had the temerity to build a nest there. We decided to check out our hunch, but very circumspectly, when no other people were on the roof and when the two birds themselves were on the wing. Sure enough, we found the nest, with three hungry fledglings obviously eager to be fed.
- David Finkelstein, Evelyn Letfuss
6/11 - Town of Wappinger, HRM 67: Another 1.3" of rain fell overnight. In the heavy and humid air of dawn, the cicadas were as thick as ever and the noise made your teeth rattle. By day's end, another 0.7" of rain had fallen, making it 2.0" for the day.
- Tom Lake
6/11 - Montgomery, HRM 61: I took a walk around the lake trail at Winding Hills Park amidst frequent cloudbursts with the air sultry and humid. I noticed one bright orange salamander on the trail and stopped to admire it. Then on the return loop that abuts the forest area, I encountered a few more along the trail. Suddenly, everywhere I looked there were salamanders of varying sizes and coloration. Some bright orange with spots; others a dull, olive shade. Most were red efts (a life stage of the red-spotted newt). The trail had two or three at every step, so I had to tip-toe to avoid stepping on them. It was the most amazing explosion of minute amphibians I had ever seen. I've heard of the "Big Nights" when they cross the roads, but this was a "Big Day."
- Patricia Henighan
6/11 - Piermont Pier, HRM 25: While out on Piermont Pier today, I spotted a white pelican perched on a piling. What a nice and totally unexpected surprise. This may have been the same white pelican sighted two days ago at Poughkeepsie.
- Peter Johnson
6/12 - Town of Wappinger, HRM 67: Today was Cicada Day 21. We had reached a point where, 17 years ago, people began to talk to the cicadas in unkind tones. Conversations at a distance of more than five or six feet were pretty much impossible.
- Tom Lake
[Seventeen year ago, the periodical cicadas began their hum on May 29; by July 1 it was pretty much over (32 days). Tom Lake.]
6/12 - Beacon, HRM 61: I caught and released five channel catfish, each to nearly two pounds, at Long Dock today. I didn't catch any carp. A local angler told me there was a very recent heavy carp spawning in the bay. I've heard from a number of other sources over the years that carp may spend some time in relative inactivity after the energetic demands of their spawning.
- Bill Greene
6/12 - Dobbs Ferry, HRM 23: An American white pelican was in the river off Dobbs Ferry at 5:30 AM, flying south just offshore. I tried all the waterfront parks south to Yonkers (river mile 18) but didn't see the bird again. Presumably this was the bird seen at Piermont yesterday.
- Gail Benson
[White pelicans are a bird of the Great Plains on up through central Canada. While every year or so, one or more turn up somewhere in the Northeast, they are a rare sighting along the estuary. Pelicans are strong flyers with the ability to soar at great heights, covering long distances. Their presence here generally occurs when blown off course either in migration or drawn here from the Great Lakes area by nor'easters. Rich Guthrie, Tom Lake.]
6/12 - Inwood Hill Park, HRM 13.5: Paths were littered with tulip-tree petals. Foliage had been abundant for weeks, but the heavy rain brought by Andrea - followed by strong sunlight - seemed to have inspired much more. There was burdock, mugwort, ivy, wild chives, and the ever-present garlic mustard. Poison ivy, in all its forms, was more abundant than I've seen here before, as was Virginia creeper. One of the glacial potholes in the Clove collects rainwater, and a couple of weeks ago it was teeming with "wrigglers" (mosquito larvae). Either they have all matured or the heavy rain washed them out because there are none now. Small patches of yellow-flowered wood sorrel alternated with larger ones of pink herb-Robert. In the crannies of a retaining wall, Kenilworth ivy was still flowering near some small blue asters. White snakeroot was in flower; in Overlook Meadow, red and white clover were blooming, and grasses were waist high. The goldenrod was not flowering yet. There was a good deal of lamb's quarters, and I took some home for salad. Jewelweed was leafing out and tiger lilies were coming up, but no flowers yet. The showiest blossoms I saw were on Japanese honeysuckle. The red-bellied woodpecker was still at home in the tall snag where I've seen him since April.
- Thomas Shoesmith, Donna Mendell
6/13 - Town of Wappinger, HRM 67: With a cloudy dawn came a gray day and more heavy rain. The cicadas were silent. The only sounds from the woods were from a wood pewee with its plaintive question: "Pee-wee? Pee-wee!" But by midday, the cicadas were back, their hum somewhat distant but growing. For a while, I thought that yesterday's performance may have been like the finale of a fireworks show.
- Tom Lake
6/13 - Ossining, HRM 33: As we drove toward the river, we had to stop short to let a wild turkey and her six little poults go by. They took their time as they strolled across the road, sticking their necks out with each step.
- Dorothy and Bob Ferguson
6/14 - Town of Poughkeepsie: This morning, the eaglet in nest NY62 was trying to fly to an upper branch but was unable to make it, so it flew back to a small branch it seems to favor. A short while later, two turkey vultures circled over the nest, causing the eaglet to get agitated. It flapped its wings and made its way back down to the nest from the perch.
- Eileen Stickle
6/14 - Town of Wappinger, HRM 67: With another 2.4" of rain yesterday, overnight, and today, the six-day total was now at 6.8". The cicadas were slow to come alive but eventually they resumed their chatter in the woods. Their effects are already apparent: our sweetgum tree has a dozen drooping branches with dying leaves.
- Tom Lake
6/14 - Croton Point, HRM 35: With a very strong north wind pushing the tide up on the beach, we seined as a warm-up for a program at tomorrow's Clearwater Revival. In a normal mid-June, the salinity would be five to six parts-per-thousand [ppt], maybe even more. But with almost seven inches of rain in the last week, today's reading was "undetectable." In addition to some young-of-the-year [YOY] striped bass 90 millimeters [mm] long, we encountered three year-classes of river herring: YOY blueback herring (44-46 mm); a small number of yearling alewives (126-128 mm); and five dead male alewives washed up on the sand (229-232 mm). The water temperature was 64 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Tom Lake, T.R. Jackson
[Salinity in the Western Atlantic at this latitude ranges from 32-35 ppt. Throughout the year the Hudson estuary's salinity is largely determined by the volume of freshwater flow from the watershed, and to a lesser degree by the vagaries of wind, tide, and current. The accompanying graph of salinity at Pier 84 in the Hudson River Park on Manhattan's West Side, based on Hudson River Environmental Conditions Observing System data, shows how salinity can vary greatly over short periods of time based on events like our recent rainstorms. While tidal currents tend to mix the river from top to bottom, water at the bottom of the river is generally saltier than water at the surface since salt water is denser than freshwater. Tom Lake, Steve Stanne.]
6/14 - Piermont, HRM 25: A group of thirty Rockland AmeriCorps members joined me for a day focused on the Hudson River. In their seine they pulled in a sampling of Atlantic silversides, mummichogs, hogchokers, striped bass, white perch, and a small blue crab along with several dozen YOY river herring. The biggest catch in the net was a white perch nearly nine inches long. The rainy weather had lowered the salinity to 0.3-1.4 ppt, the reading rising with the tide. The rain had also caused high levels of turbidity, with site tube visibility averaging only about 8.5 inches.
- Margie Turrin, Kathy Galione, Nicole Laible, 2013 Rockland County AmeriCorps
6/14 - Manhattan, HRM 5: Sitting on the railing of my terrace this morning, across from Central Park, was a "sparrow hawk." It had a beautiful red back, red cap, black bars on the head and sides, and a long tail. It only rested for about a minute or two and then flew away with something it had been holding in its beak. It could have been little twigs, but I couldn't tell. There have been other such sightings in Manhattan where, once again, red-tailed hawks have nested outside of New York University President Sexton's office.
- Joan Martens
[In the 1934 edition of Roger Tory Peterson's Guide to the Birds of Eastern North America, the American kestrel is referred to as the "sparrow hawk." Since then, kestrel has become the preferred common name, matching usage in Britain. This change also occurred for the other two falcons seen regularly in the Hudson Valley, the peregrine falcon (once "duck hawk") and merlin (formerly "pigeon hawk"). Tom Lake.]

A San Antonio man was reportedly arrested while openly carrying his rifle while on a walk near his home on Monday. The incident, which was video recorded by the gun owner, started out as a calm and reasonable conversation but ended dramatically with cops tasing the man before they put him in handcuffs.
Open Carry Texas accused the SAPD of lacking the proper training, experience and common sense on guns and Texas law.

On the Eve of Turkey's Elections ...
by Daniel Pipes
Translations of this item:
Here is the Associated Press caption for the above picture: "Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton gives Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu a high five at the start of their bilateral meeting at the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, Thursday, June 9, 2011."
And here is my comment: Clinton should be ashamed of herself, horsing around like this with the representative of a hostile state whose government is just three days away from elections. This sends precisely the wrong message of endorsement by the U.S. government. (June 9, 2011)
June 9, 2011 update: A reader, Rebecca Moulds, offers a limerick for the occasion:
June 10, 2011 update: Another limerick, from reader Kepha Hor:
Also: A Turkish contact points out that my phrasing above, "the representative of a hostile state" rings differently in Turkish than in English. So, let me be clear: I see the ruling Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi (AKP) as the hostile element. But given that the AKP has the support of roughly half the population, plus the country's small and diminishing pro-American element, I conclude that many Turks are indeed hostile to the United States that Hillary Clinton represents.
June 13, 2011 update: A reader, Olcay, points out the occasion for the high-five and I reply at "High Five for Davutoglu's second child."

Wilko Johnson, star of "Game of Thrones" and Dr Feelgood musician, has less than a year to live but he's feeling slightly euphoric at the thought. He no longer fears death, the stars admits in a new interview with Reuters.
Johnson announced last month that he'd been diagnosed with terminal cancer of the pancreas, with his manager saying he had no plans to undergo treatment.
Instead, the star would continue with his ongoing projects, which include a new album and a new tour.
The only thing he still has to worry about at this point, Johnson says, is not to get sick before a show.
"It makes you feel so alive," the star says of his cancer diagnosis.
"Just walking down the street, man, everything looks really intense. Any little thing you look at, it almost gives you a kind of childlike consciousness," he adds.
"I'm a miserable so-and-so. I suffer from depression and everything ... but all that stuff whatever it was I used to worry about – it doesn't matter. What's gone, what is and what will be, do not matter," Johnson explains.
He wants to have his health for as much as possible, so that he can complete the tour and keep the promise he made to his fans.
"I'm not going on stage sick. I'm not going to have someone pushing me around in a wheelchair. They'd have to push fast," he jokes.
Johnson made headlines around the world when he announced he would not undergo treatment for cancer; many took that as the ultimate sign of dignity and class, especially since he also said he would continue working as long as his health allowed it.
The 65-year-old musician has also earned praise and fans for his work as an actor. Most recently, he was seen on the hit series "Game of Thrones," on which he plays the mute executioner Ilyn Payne.

text: Lord, our prayers are with the Gates family this morning as Ordway has succumbed to his long battle with dementia. His earthly body has failed him but now he is free of the encumbrance and has entered a new phase of life. We are happy for him because he is free of pain and suffering. He can run with the angels on streets made of gold, and listen to stories from saints new and old (I'm sure he'll love that part!). He can worship his Maker face-to-face; we know that's where he'll be when we finally find him… But we, his friends and family, who knew him and loved him miss him dearly; we wish he was still here. We just pray that you O God will comfort us as we say goodbye to the patriarch of the Gates family this week. Grant us the ability to celebrate a life well lived even as we ourselves grieve our loss. We pray in the name of the one who has overcome death and grants us life everlatsting—Jesus the Christ. AMEN

Rickettsial Fever is an acute febrile, zoonotic disease spread by bite of ticks or mites. The infection manifests as non-specific febrile illness which is sometimes accompanied by gastrointestinal, respiratory or central nervous system manifestations. Illness can be in apparent or severe and death is reported to occur in 1% to 30% of untreated cases. The presences of Rickettsial diseases in India have been documented in Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Rajasthan, Assam, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Kerala and Tamil Nadu .(4) Recently the disease has reemerged in many areas of India.(2,8)
Diagnosis and surveillance of this disease can be challenging particularly in the absence of advanced laboratory techniques or expensive tests. Rickettsial diseases may pose a serious public health problem, if not diagnosed or misdiagnosed. Immuno-fluorescence assay (IFA) is the gold standard technique and is used as a reference technique in most laboratories.
Weil Felix (WF) test is based on the detection of antibodies to various proteus species which contains antigens with cross-reacting epitopes to antigens from members of the genus Rickettsia. Even though WF agglutination test is not very sensitive but when positive, it is rather specific test.(12) Good correlation between the results of WF test and detection of IgM antibodies by an Immuno-fluorescence assay has been demonstrated.(10) This study was done to see the clinical and hematological profile of patients suffering from Rickettsial Fever admitted in our hospital.
Type of Study:
Prospective study
All patients who were suspected clinically and supported by lab. investigations of Rickettsial Fever admitted in Dr. Bidari's Ashwini Hospital, Bijapur during the period of January 2006 to September 2006 were included in this study. Clinical suspicion of Rickettsial fever was based on history of fever, non-confluent maculopapular or purpuric rash involving palms and soles and supported with Weil Felix Test.
The WF proteus agglutination assay (P. vulgaris, OX-19, OX-2, OX-K strain agglutination; Wellcome; Dartford, England) was performed on each sample according to the manufacturers instructions by diluting each serum 1/20 to 1/1280. A Single WF titre of 1:320 or rise of four fold or more in titres on repeat testing starting from 1:40 was accepted as positive results.
On admission, a complete physical and laboratory examination (Complete blood count, Liver function test, WF, Widal & Malarial Parasites) were done. CSF, serum electrolytes, X-Ray, 2D-Echo were done as and when needed.
All patients were treated with chloramphenicol at the dosage of 50-100mg/kg/day in 3 divided doses for duration till the patient has been afebrile for at least 2-4 days along with Clarithromycin for 7 days, and Doxycycline in the dose of 2.5mg/kg/day once daily for 5 days in children above 8 years.
In our study from January 2006 to September 2006, 48 patients satisfied our inclusion criteria. Age ranged from 2 ½ months to 9 years with maximum incidence in 1-5 years of age group (75%) with male predominance (M:F = 2.6:1).
Major presenting symptoms were fever and rash (100%), followed by oedema (77%), altered sensorium (52%), convulsions (46%) and joint pains (27%). Rash was seen in all children of which characteristic non-confluent maculopapular rash involving palms and soles was seen in 42 cases (87%) and purpuric rash was seen in 6 cases (13%). Other signs observed were oedema (87%), hepatosplenomegaly (85%), altered sensorium (50%), seizures (46%), upper GI bleeds (13%), peripheral gangrene (6%), myocarditis (4%) and pneumonia (4%).
Mean hemoglobin was 8.6gm/dl (5.2 to 14gm/dl), leucopenia (<5000 cells/mm3) seen in 1 case, where as leucocytosis (>10000 cells/mm3) seen in 43 cases (89.5%), thrombocytopenia (<1.5 lakh cells/mm3) in 18 cases (37.5%) and thrombocytosis (>4.5 lakh cells/mm3) in 8 cases (16.6%).
On WF test, 7 patients showed titres = 1:320 for OX2 antigen and 13 patients for OX-19 antigen, while 7 patients showed titre =1:320 for both the antigens at presentation. Of the 20 children whose titres were <1:320 had shown rise in titre >1:320 after one week.
CSF analysis was done in 22 children of which 13 (27%) were abnormal. CSF sugar was low in 8 cases. CSF protein was high in all 13 cases (100%) with mean CSF protein of 253mg/dl (65-340mg/dl), CSF pleocytosis was seen in all 13 abnormal CSF with mean cell count 143 cells/mm3 (10-265cells/mm3). Polymorphonuclear predominance was seen in 9 cases (69.2%) and lymphocytic predominance was seen in 4 cases (30.7%).
3 children required mechanical ventilation of which 2 expired and 1 left against medical advice.
44 cases (91.6%) improved, 2 cases (4.16%) expired and 2 cases (4.16%) left against medical advice.
Rickettsial disease is an acute infectious disease caused by Rickettsial organism, which is transmitted to humans by ticks, mites or lice. Though, it was reported by Anton et. al. (15)14, no such age is found in pediatric age group. In our study age of presentation ranged from 2 ½ months to 9 years with maximum children from 1-5 years of age group. It was in comparison with Colomba et. al. who showed median age of presentation as 6 years with male preponderance (M:F-2.6:1). Majority of the patients presented with fever and rash (100%) and a characteristic non-confluent maculopapular rash involving palms and soles was seen in 87%, which was more in comparison to Colomba et. al. (94%) 15, and purpuric rash was seen in 13%, which was more in comparison with Colomba et.al. (2.3%)15, hepatosplenomegaly was seen in 85% which was far more in comparison to S K Mahajan et. al. (43%), altered sensorium was seen in 50% which was double in comparison to S K Mahajan et. al. (24%), seizures was seen in 46%. Hepatosplenomegaly (85%), altered sensorium (50%), seizures (46%) was double in comparison to S K Mahajan et. al. (43%, 24%, 19% respectively)1. Peripheral gangrene 6%, myocarditis 4% and pneumonia 4% were also seen in our study.
On WF test, 7 patients showed titres = 1 : 320 per OX-2 antigen and 13 patients for OX-19 antigen, while 7 patients showed titres = 1 : 320 for both the OX-2 and OX-19 antigens at presentation. In 20 patients the titre increased > 1 : 320 in the convalescent phase.
According to the WF titres, the most probable Rickettsial disease would be tick borne-spotted fever or epidemic typhus. Since no louse infestations (the scalp & body infestation, lymphadenopathy) was seen in any of the patients and most of them were below low socioeconomic status from rural area, there are more chances of tick infestation. Hence tick borne spotted fever is the most likely cause, but still further investigations like PCR should be done to detect the different Rickettsial organisms.
Even though the sensitivity WF has been claimed less, there are several reports which suggest good correlation of WF test with other standard tests used. Amano et. al. (11) 10 tested sera from 17 patients of Rickettsial disease in the acute and convalescent phases by indirect immuno-peroxidase test, WF test, Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent (ELISA) and immuno-blotting in the comparison of antibody titres in acute & convalescent phase sera, a parallelism of increment was noted between the titres in WF test and titres of immunoglobulin M (IgM) in ELISA. Amano et.al (12) 11 observed that of the sera which were positive to Rickettsia by indirect immuno-peroxidase approximately 80% sera were positive to antigens by WF test.
In the study conducted in South India (15) 13, the sensitivity to patients antigens was 30% at a titre breakpoint of 1 : 80 but the specificity and positive predictive value was 100%.
Saah A J et. al suggested that, even though WF test is not a very sensitive test but when positive it is rather specific test (14) 12.
Rickettsial fever does exist in our area posing diagnostic difficulty and should be kept in mind in workup of PUO.
The availability and the cost of Standard serological methods for Rickettsia are major problems in India. The diagnosis should be largely based on high index of suspicion and careful clinical, laboratory and epidemiological evaluation supported by cost effective tests like WF.
WF test is still not entirely absolute but should be interpreted in the correct clinical contexts.
Use of empirical treatment should also be considered to reduce the high mortality and morbidity observed with the disease.

HTC EVO V 4G gets hand-me-down 4G on Virgin Mobile
The great WiMAX hope for The Now Network has faded, and they're now investing in a true LTE network slated for some time later this year. But that doesn't mean that they're going to let all those "4G" WiMAX towers go to waste - they'll just open them up for users of their low-cost subsidiaries, like Virgin Mobile's US arm. Their first "4G" phone will be the HTC EVO V 4G, announced today at CTIA in New Orleans.

Clans and Families
of Ireland and Scotland
VIII. The Laigin
The Ui Diarmada included the
O'Concannons (O Concheanainn) and O'Mullens (O Maolain). The O'Concannons
were chiefs of Corca Mogha (Corcamoe) in the northeast of County Galway. Their chief
resided at Kiltullagh, in the parish of Kilkerrin, which is also called Corcamoe after
their territory. The O'Mullens are of the same stock as the O'Concannons, and
their territory bordered on that of O'Concannon, in northeast County Galway.
The Ui Fiachrach Finn included the O'Mullallys (O
Maolalaidh)—"grandson of the speckled chief") and O'Naghtens (O
Neachtain). The Ui Fiachrach Finn originally inhabited the fertile plain of Maonmhagh,
being the area surrounding Loughrea in south-central Galway, but were dispossessed by the
Burkes soon after the Anglo-Norman invasion, and forced to seek territory elsewhere.
The O'Mullallys settled in the parish of Tuam in northern Galway,
their new territory comprising the lands known as Tulach na Dala (Tullaghnadaly), or
Tolendal, four miles north of the town of Tuam. The O'Mullallys were ardent
Jacobites, adhering to the Stewart cause in the wars of the seventeenth century. James
Lally of Tullindaly sat as representative of Tuam in King James's parliament of 1689.
After the Jacobite defeat he retired to France with his brother Gerald. Gerald married a
noble French lady, and their son and grandson became famous in Europe under the title
Count Lally de Tollendal. The O'Naghtens were chiefs of Maonmhagh before the
Anglo-Norman invasion, after which they removed to the Feadha, or Fews, of Athlone in
South Roscommon, where they formed a distinct clan down to the reign of Elizabeth I (ca.
The Oirghialla
The Oirghialla were closely related to the Ui
Maine, as mentioned above. They were the Laiginian allies of the North-Gaelic tribe of Ui
Neill, which virtually monopolized the high-kingship of Ireland during the post-fifth
century historical period. The Oirghialla helped the Ui Neill effect the conquest of most
of Northern Ireland from the Ulster Erainn, and later they settled a vast territory there
including the counties of Louth, Armagh, Monaghan and Fermanagh, a territory which is
called after them, Oriel. so important were they in the Ui Neill political sphere that
they were given an honorary traditional descent (which was nonetheless fake and thinly
disguised) from the great-grandfather of Nial of the Nine Hostages, ancestor of the
O'NeilIs of the line of Conn. Their representatives in the later Middle Ages include
the MacBradys, O'Boylans, O'Flanagans, O'Mulroonys or Moroneys, Maguires,
MacKernans, MacAuleys, O'Cassidys, O'Corrigans, MacManuses, MacMahons, MacCanns,
O'Hanraghtys, O'Hanlons, O'Lynns, MacEvoys, MacDonalds, MacDonells,
MacAlisters, Maclans, MacSheehys, Maclntyres, MacDougals, and Conns.
The MacBradys (Mac Bradaigh) were a powerful family of Breffny (Cavan
and West Leitrim), being chiefs of Cuil Bhrighed or Cuil Bhrighdein, which

Any plans for the city to take over a portion of Palmer Street have hit another dead end.
The subject of making the privately-owned stretch which has not been well maintained and is riddled with potholes came up at Monday nights Watertown City Council meeting.
Despite unsuccessful lobbying attempts by Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham, the majority of City Council reiterated opposition in the city taking over the privately owned section of the street, from Emmett Street to Wealtha Avenue.
The city continues to patch it at public expense and plow it at public expense, Mr. Graham said. While we can technically argue its not a city street, by doing that, we certainly suggest to the public that it is a publicly-sanctioned thoroughfare since we maintain it poorly.
Mayor Graham contended that the narrow street without sidewalks is unsafe because many children live in the 70-unit Palmer Street Apartments.
But council members Teresa R. Macaluso and Joseph M. Butler Jr. said the city should hold off in designating that section a city-designated street.
Im not totally opposed to fixing it, Ms. Macaluso said. I just have no interest in doing that right now.
In 2012, City Engineer Kurt W. Hauk put a $1,173,232 price tag on making major Palmer Street improvements that would include widening the road and installing sidewalks and sewers. The price did not include acquiring property for the project.
While the mayor said he has received complaints about its condition, Mr. Butler told him that no one has come to him about the road condition.
Councilwoman Roxanne M. Burns said she agreed the road is unsafe, while Councilman Stephen A. Jennings said the city should consider other solutions.
Figuring out ownership also is a problem with taking over the road, City Attorney Robert J. Slye said. In the past, the city unsuccessfully tried to figure out titleship of that section of the road.
The Palmer Street section between Arsenal and Emmett streets already is under the citys jurisdiction it became a city-dedicated street in 1897. The ownership of the section between Emmett Street and the apartment complex may be in question because the city was never able to resolve that issue when it looked into it in 2005.
If the ownership issue was resolved, Mr. Slye said the city would need to obtain a court order to acquire the street.
If nothing changes with that issue, the city should consider closing off that section, saying it is unsafe, Mr. Graham said.
In the past, Palmer Street residents have been divided over the issue.

Dr. Kathryn L. Arendt's Ratings
Yes, I have had to wait for an appointment and wait awhile in the waiting room, but Dr Arendt is wonderful. She listens and is a good communicator as well as being very knowledgeable. She has done surgery on me and the nurses in the hospital said that if they were having surgery she is who they would go to.

I've been seeing Dr. Arendt for several years. I've always found her to be a wonderful listener, open minded, and a clear communicator. I'm so thankful that I found her!!! I used to see her in Kirkland, but Bellevue is closer, so I go to that office now.

Warning. Every time I went to this womans office she attempted to charge me for services and/or procedures that were never done. She does not actually see you but rather has a series of interns see you. She prescribed hormones right out of the gate and did not think it was necessary to test me to see if I actually needed them. I went to a different provider for a test and found that I did NOT need them. Money out of your pocket and into hers is all she cares about.

Never really seen you, or have even heard of you. But I'm willing to give it a shot. If I ever have any fatal wounds in Washington I'll know who to call

Dr. Arendt is the most compassionate, knowledgeable caring doctor I've ever had the good fortune to encounter. I've been her patient for 10 1/2 years and never been happier. She performed a hysterectomy for me, got prompt assistance for me for a bad infection I got when Evergreen's nurses left in staples, and just was amazing throughout the treatment and recovery. I still see her, still get attentive, absolute holistic care. Yes, she does tend to run late (though much less so now than in the early years where she did practice obstetrics also. But in fairness, babies that decide to be born come first AND the flip side is that you get the type of care you only dream about after a wait. She is there, just for you, during your time with her. Intense focus and thoroughness. I'd rather wait a bit for that kind of care. If you want a call center environment, where the doctor rushes you through, stops listening after the first minute or so, then she is not for you. If you prize quality and time, then she's your pick!

Dr Arendt is a wonderfully skilled and compassionate DR. I have had to have serveral vagainal reconsructive surgeries, and she has been wonderful thru every single one of them. I have had to wait in the office for 45+ minutes for an appointment. But I personally had to go thru about 8 GYNS before I found her and I will happily wait for her. She is a great DR and I would recommend her to anyone!!!! She truly will sit and listen to any problems and care about what you say. I think she is just AWESOME!!! LOVE HER!!!

Dr. Arendt performed surgery on me to fix a botched hysterectomy by another doctor. She was so kind and understanding, took the time to answer every question, and did an excellent job "putting me back together again." I would highly recommend both her bedside manner and her surgical skill.
Was this rating useful? 1 [[ userState['ratings'][2052589].votes_count ]]
Dr. Arendt is a very competent doctor and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a gynecologist. I have been a patient of hers for 10+ years and have received nothing but exceptional care. She always listens and involves me in the decisions making process. For the person who gave negative feedback, you must have your doctors mixed up because Dr. Arendt doesn't do and hasn't done obstetrics for many years.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][2052588].votes_count ]]
Dr. Arendt is a fantastic physician. I would question the negative poster's motives, since Dr. Arendt doesn't even do obstetrics. She specializes in surgery and urogynecology. I've been her patient for 7 years and wouldn't consider anyone else. She listens intently and explains thoroughly. She is a true healer.

If you are pregnant, then she's fine. If you are not, then don't expect this doctor or the clinic to care about you at all. I've had to wait 45 minutes for an appointment, and I've had to wait 6 months for an appointment. Don't make my mistake!

Ultrasound Technician Schools in Utah
Utah is home to more than 2.7 million people, with about two-thirds reported to be members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, making the state one of the most religiously uniform in the country. Utah is also one of the fastest-growing states in the nation, and is a haven for outdoor sports enthusiasts thanks to its mountains, rivers, and ski slopes. Additionally, it's a good place for ultrasound technicians to find employment or get their education. The state's unemployment rate is below the national average, giving the local economy a boost and making the job market less competitive. The best bet for ultrasound techs to find work is in the Salt Lake City area; the state capital has more than 1.1 million people throughout the tri-county metropolitan region, making it a focal point for medical research and activity. The Utah Hospitals and Health System Association is another great resource for ultrasound technicians.

February 16, 2007 "The Complete and Unexpurgated New Yorker One-Hour Cartoon Course," inaugural lecture in the Reading the World series
The essence of humor is really play. Sometimes humor is mock aggression, but often it's nothing more than something bad that's happening to someone who's not you. That's what America's Funniest Home Videos are. The essence of the New Yorker cartoon is that there is, for the most part, something to get. There's this transitional moment where you have to think using the medium of humor. The cartooning in the New Yorker is more about thinking than anything else.
Bob Mankoff has been cartoon editor of the New Yorker since 1997 and has written or edited 23 books of or about cartoons.
March 28, 2007 "Cultural Aspects of Learning: Observation, Collaboration, and Multimodal Conversation," the annual Longfellow Lecture, hosted by the Child Development Institute
For a century now there's been plenty of evidence that the formal schooling used in assembly line instruction is not a good way for people to learn. It may be an effective bureaucratic tool for handling large numbers of kids, but there are better ways of getting people to learn. One alternative is called intent community participation, a defining facet of which is mentorship. For the learner, the purpose is to observe and contribute to a valued activity. For the more advanced participant—the teacher—the purpose is to accomplish something. This is in contrast with assembly line instruction, where the purpose for the learner is to seek things like gold stars or grades, and the teacher's purpose is to sort the learners into levels.
Barbara Rogoff is a professor of psychology at the University of California. Her most recent books include Learning Together: Children and Adults in a School Community and The Cultural Nature of Human Development.
April 3, 2007 "Robots in the Classroom: Motivating Students and Machines," part of the Science Seminar Series
If you told potential students that Intro to Computer Science would have a robot in it, would that be intimidating? Or would it depend on the kind of robot? It would have to be a robot you would want to work with. If it had wires coming out of it and circuits, maybe that would be a little bit intimidating, but if it were small and useful—maybe something that would fit in, say, a lunchbox—maybe that would actually be engaging. So we thought we could take this to the next level and instead of targeting advanced computer science students for robotics, we could use robotics to attract beginners to computer science.

May 4, 2007 "An Evening with Rebecca Walker," sponsored by Common Ground
There was this kind of idealism about my birth. Both of my parents were drawn to Mississippi by the call of Dr. Martin Luther King in the 60's, and then there was this sense that my biracial body would signify the end of racial segregation and the hope of the future. Unfortunately there weren't therapists to deal with interracial relationships at that point, and they divorced. Part of my writing is trying to come to terms with that transition from being this idealized body that represented the future, to being kind of a remnant of a more idealistic past.
Rebecca Walker, daughter of Alice Walker '65, is the best-selling author of Baby Love and Black, White, and Jewish and the founder of the Third Wave Foundation.
