"My diet is strictly regulated and I cannot use any sugars."
I'm a 70-year-old female. I had recurrent small bowel obstruction, and over four years ago had a resection of my jejunum to right colon, including my ileocecal valve. After the operation, I had 20% of my small bowel left. I am not taking total parenteral nutrition (TPN) or enteral nutrition (EN). My weight dropped to 83 pounds three months after the operation but has climbed to 100 to 102 and stabilized.
I take a variety of antibiotics to fight off small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, which has been my main problem. I'm also taking 240 mg of codeine daily, along with monthly B12 shots. I have been having problems with extreme pain from the bad bacteria. I take two liters of CeraLyte® 70 a day as my only liquid drink. My diet is strictly regulated and I cannot use any sugars.
My quality of life is horrible. My bowel movements average nine per day, sometimes as many as 25, and are loose for the most part. I have tried the available probiotics and Greek yogurt to help me with good bacteria, all to no avail. I am very thankful that I do not have to use TPN or EN but wish that I could have a better quality of life. I am glad to share my experiences with anyone.

"I have managed to have a part-time life … I am hoping to find the right level of support."
I was born with ulcerative colitis in 1969 and was very ill for most of my childhood. In 1983, it was decided that I should have the j-pouch surgery (ileal pouch reconstruction), as there was a high risk of cancer. I had my colon removed. I had to have a temporary ileostomy, and then I had it reversed.
For four years, although I had problems, I flourished and was well and had the most normal existence I had ever had. When I turned 19, I developed blood poisoning and almost died. I was not expected to leave the hospital. I had all but 150 cm of small bowel left, as well as no large intestine and a permanent ileostomy.
Since that time, I have managed to have a part-time life; however, it has really compromised my life and has given me great hardship—mainly due to the condition not being treated correctly or understood by the people who are supposed to provide support. I am not on any real medication except for Imodium®, which I take a lot. I am hoping to find the right level of support medically and pastorally in the UK. Until this condition is understood and the correct level of support is in place, people with this condition lead very challenging lives.

"SBS has completely turned my world upside down, but since this, I am now married to my best friend and my companion."
On January 1, 2007, I was admitted to my nearby hospital for abdominal pain after computed tomographic (CT) scans and tests were all negative. I was admitted for further testing. Two days later, I was on life support and in complete organ failure. By the time they scoped me, it was too late. My entire intestines had gone gangrenous. I underwent three massive bowel resections in four days and was in a coma for three weeks. After I woke up, we discovered things were not getting better, and I started TPN, G-tube, etc. The doctors had given up … better yet, I was only 27 years old.
I was being handled by the three chiefs-of-staff at this very prominent hospital located here in Virginia. Finally, my one gastro guy said to us, "Get out. There is no hope here." And well, we listened. We had narrowed down our decision to a specialist in Switzerland, and one of the leading specialists on SBS at a hospital in Georgetown. My gastro guy begged us to try Dr. L at George Washington University. Thank God we did. I underwent four more resections with him there.
Besides being registered on the short bowel transplant list, the fourth surgery was the key! I was released that July and remained on TPN until August. We figured the originating factor was a mesenteric blowout that caused a strangulated hernia. I have exactly 80 cm remaining, colon intact. My problem now is adhesions that are basically attacking my insides. It has been four years now, with no G-tube, no TPN, and an SBS diet created by Dr. Z at Emory University.
I am a one percenter. But I have a deep-rooted passion for all of those who suffer from this. It is a daily challenge, fear, scare, struggle, pain inside and pain for your loved ones. They want you to be so strong because you look normal, but it's all a show. I am now dealing with colon challenges like motility. My main challenge is adhesions. I remain on Coumadin® and have kept my food and vitamin journal to learn what is best for my digestive system. My immune system will always be compromised. Best thing that has happened to me yet is Culturelle® two times a day!
SBS has completely turned my world upside down, but since this, I am now married to my best friend and my companion. My triumphs are that I am no longer on TPN, no G-tube and my specialists say that I should be the poster child for SBS. I am so glad I discovered this site. I have been looking for one for years now, and I am always willing to speak and help others with this daily struggle. I guess the way I see it is, thank God. God gave this to me instead of someone else—sacrifice.

"Short bowel syndrome is like having a motor in your stomach that never stops, and as it runs, it grinds the sides of your gut."
I am the very first infant that survived necrotizing enterocolitis from birth. I am now 35 years of age and therefore the oldest survivor of short bowel syndrome. I reside in Amarillo. I made the newspaper at four months old. It read "Four-Month-Old Baby Finally Goes Home." Mother's milk is what saved my life, and thanks to six women in Amarillo, I got mother's milk for a solid year.
I have had more than half of my small bowel removed, and I sustained three major operations at birth and one in Dallas to remove gangrene from the resection. Now at 35, I have irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease that preceded my SBS. Short bowel syndrome affects your life and the lives of your family, also. I hate that I go to the bathroom more than 20 times a day, or I have kidney stones for weeks. Short bowel syndrome is like having a motor in your stomach that never stops, and as it runs, it grinds the sides of your gut, causing sheer and utter pain.
I am lucky to be alive to tell my story. I just hope that as my intestine continues to struggle, I can help others with remedies and things I do to help the agony and pain I endure with this condition. I am currently seeing this wonderful doctor who infuses me with nutrients and immune support therapy. I take no prescriptions. I maintain a good diet and see my doctor every week for my intravenous (IV) therapy. That's all a person with this condition can do—have a good doctor who can help you.
"There is hope … Short bowel syndrome is a very serious condition, but it is one that can be well managed if done correctly."
My name is Andrew, "Andy," and I have lived with short bowel syndrome for my entire life. I am 26 years old, and I live in Lincoln, Nebraska. I was born in 1986 to Leo and Barbara. At 38 weeks, my mother discovered I had stopped moving and went to see her OB/GYN. After that appointment, my life began.
There was something wrong. Surgeons at the time could not determine what. After some thinking, the surgeon who was on my case did exploratory surgery and discovered that I had three knots called volvuluses in my small intestine. The surgeon decided to take out the dead small bowel and reconnect the remaining living parts, for a total of 10.2 cm, or 4 in. A normal 40-week infant should have 150-300 cm of small intestine.
My parents were told I had 24 hours, they should make funeral arrangements, and I was baptized immediately. After the small bowel resection and a confirmed diagnosis of one of the worst cases of SBS ever seen at the time, I was started on total parenteral nutrition and enteral feeding to help deliver supplemental nutrition because of the degree of malnourishment, as a result of the small bowel only being 10.2 cm.
We moved to Lincoln, Nebraska from Columbia, Missouri in 1989. When I was starting to once again fail in health, we came to Nebraska to find a gastroenterologist. Throughout my school years, I struggled because I would go in and out of the hospitals or be sick on a frequent basis. My classmates had an idea of what was wrong with me, but they really didn't know what SBS entailed, which made it difficult to fit in.
I was able to play some sports—soccer, t-ball and baseball, and eventually when I got to high school, I ran a year of cross-country. Then, I called it quits on my sports career, knowing it probably didn't do my body any favors by burning off the much-needed calories. I often struggled in school. I found it difficult, so I took advantage of the resources made available to me. I graduated high school in 2005 and got accepted into nursing school. After two years of nursing, emergency medicine and surgical technology courses, I settled on a business degree and started thinking about where I wanted to go next.
Today, I am a college graduate, and an entrepreneur who has started his own business. There is hope! I knew a lot about short bowel syndrome. In fact, I was interviewed several times about the condition SBS and my personal experiences before the idea sparked in my head to create a foundation for the patients and caregivers of SBS. The Short Bowel Syndrome Foundation was established to help educate, support and advocate for those with short bowel syndrome. Our vision and mission is to empower patients to live fuller lives, creating a lifeline of hope. In addition to providing education and support materials and inspiring those who come to the site, there are our social networks for guidance and knowledge, so that management of care becomes easier.
That is a little about myself, and I am always willing to share more if asked. Short bowel syndrome is a very serious condition, but it is one that can be well managed if done correctly and with frequent follow-ups with your gastroenterologist. There is no reason why you could not live a pretty normal life!

Trying to put the onus onto someone else for your own decisions is really cowardly and kind of dishonest.
Paul, to be fair, is a principled isolationist, which is a harebrained position but not a dishonest one.
Instead, he condescended with a dishonest and revisionist history of the GOP.
And anyone who promised success with even such an effort would have been dishonest.
Among them is a distinction between "honest graft" and "dishonest graft."
If a dishonest man had not deprived me of fifteen hundred francs a year I could save this or that poor family.'
In fact he wrote that he thought it all wrong, deceitful, bordering on the dishonest.
Here, at any rate, are no great names to scare us into dishonest admiration.
To return again to the lying, dishonest, and negligent servant.
The same observations are to be made in regard to dishonest witnesses who, when pressed to think hard, only simulate doing so.

|COS Data Handbook 2.00
All COS data products are Multi-Extension FITS (MEF) format files and begin with a primary data unit which includes only a header with no data extension. The catfits task in STSDAS can be used to list the complete set of extensions and their data formats for the COS data files. For more information on working with MEF format files please refer to Chapter 2 of the Introduction to HST Data Handbooks.Tabular COS information, such as extracted one-dimensional spectra or the TIME-TAG mode event series, are stored as FITS binary tables. The tables can be accessed directly in the PyRAF/IRAF/STSDAS environment using tasks in the tables.ttools package as described in Chapters 2 and 3 of the Introduction to HST Data Handbooks of this document, or with other standard FITS tools.COS images and two-dimensional spectroscopic data are stored in FITS image extension files, which can be directly manipulated, without conversion, in the PyRAF/IRAF/STSDAS environment. Accessing images in the FITS image extension files in IRAF follows a simple convention explained in detail in Chapter 2 of the Introduction to HST Data Handbooks. Figure 2.1 illustrates the structure of a COS FITS image extension file, which contains:
• A primary header that stores keyword information describing the global properties of the exposure in the file (e.g., the target name, target coordinates, exposure type, optical element, aperture, detector, calibration switches, reference files used).
• A set of image extensions, each containing header keywords with information specific to the given exposure (e.g., exposure time, world coordinate system) and a data array.Figure 2.1: FITS Image Extension File for COSThe following file types are stored in FITS image extension files with the particular format shown in Figure 2.1: rawaccum, flt, counts, pha and rawacq1. Each COS readout can generate one FITS image SCI extension or three FITS image extensions (SCI, ERR, and DQ) as explained below:
• The second extension type, ERR, contains the statistical errors, which are propagated through the calibration process. It is unpopulated in raw data files.
• The third extension type, DQ, stores the data quality values, which flag suspect pixels in the corresponding SCI data.The error arrays and data quality values are described in more detail in Section 2.7. The value of the XTENSION keyword in the extension header identifies the type of data the extension contains; the value of this keyword may be determined using the IRAF tables tasks catfits or thedit.
Only ACQ/IMAGE files use the exact format shown in Figure 2.1. For more details on acquisition file formats see "Acquisition Files (RAWACQ)" in Section 2.4.4.

Rated 5 out of 5 by YoYoMas Great Improvement from the Fall We have and will stay here often as our children go to nearby schools. Our stays since the beginning of the year have been great. We were ready to try other hotels in the area and reached out to the staff with our concerns. It seems that the new staff have corrected the previous problems. My only complaint is that the hotel is not really in Georgetown. The hotel is in a very good location but closer to Foggy Bottom than Georgetown. March 31, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5 by Traveller456 Essie is the BEST I was staying at the Westin Georgetown and was so grateful for Essie's incredible customer service. She is so pleasant and helpful on the phone, and has such a warm demeanor to her that makes you smile. It was such a pleasure to interact with her, and I can't thank her enough for her kindness.

Rated 5 out of 5 by NYCVisitorJanuary2015 Great stay, excellent customer service My company had the holiday party at Westin Georgetown hotel in early January, 2015. The hotel has very nice amenities, rooms are very clean with huge bathrooms. The mini-bar was a nice surprise (the cashews were very tasty). The ball room where we had the party was very spacious, and we all had a great time. Special thanks to the hotel staff, extremely helpful and highly professional. January 18, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by CD04 extremely pleased My two daughters and I spent a short weekend in Washington DC and Georgetown area. I was totally blown away by the outstanding service and extremely friendly service from the bellmen, to the front desk and concierge staff. This hotel showed the best service and customer recognition that I have ever had at any Westin. I was stay here again on my next DC visit. January 4, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by charmed9 Hotel room great, but amenities NOT great The hotel is beautiful, conveniently located, and the rooms are very comfortable. I was very disappointed however in three things - 1) no indoor pool or hot tub, 2) I had to pay for really BAD internet, difficult to connect and then weak signal for all of our devices, and 3) the bar is a joke with ridiculously expensive drinks and terrible service. December 30, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Batden Lighting Lighting in the room was poor. Wattage of lamps are ridiculusly low. Going to the bathroom during night, all bathroom lights come on. December 9, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by PA11132014 Surprisingly disappointing Room request and confirmation was not kept or of any concern to the front desk. Evening of our wedding our room was next to ice machine and elevator noise. Food was disappointing and unfinishable, pre-prepared and took three times to get correct. No apology except we did from the exhausted room svc employee. Housekeeping and valet was exceptionally responsive while front desk was clueless and of no help or resolution. Rooms were super clean but ,mattresses were old, used, smelled and uncomfortable. I am a diehard SPG customer and love every location I stay for business and personal with NOTHING short of exceptional experience. This was severely below my expectation and what you are classifying category 5 hotel. I regret my choice of facility. November 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Eugene70 This hotel has excellent amenities. I enjoyed this hotel because of its location to the historical landmarks. However, the hotel itself has excellent room features, along with a very nicely outfitted work out area for those into fitness. I would recommend this facility for anyone wanting to visit the Washington DC area. Well done Westin Georgetown. November 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ezell Excellent Hotel Loved this hotel.....me and my wife are local and wanted to just get away for the weekend and we chose this property. I must say it met all expectations of the "Westin" brand. The staff was nice a knowledgeable and very welcoming. They pointed us in the right direction and even recommended us to a nice restaurant for dinner. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone in the area. November 2, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by SleeplessinDC Off Their Game This used to be a good hotel in a convenient location. Now management wants to nickel and dime their customers for everything. Like $13/DAY for internet (!) and $6 plus tax to print a one page boarding pass. In addition, a request to the front desk to investigate the reason why the television went on spontaneously at 1:30 am EVERY morning went ignored. October 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JKAR This is avery comfortable hotel My daughter and I enjoyed our stay at the Westin Georgetown. The room and bathroom were extremely comfortable. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to work out in the gym, but I thought it was a great idea to have sports clothes and shoes delivered to the room for US$ 5. I'll take advantadge of it in my next stay. October 18, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by DAVIDDRB THE HOTEL NEEDS REVAMPING THE ROOM NOT CLEAN. THE LIGHTING BAD. ONLY 2 LAMPS IN MAIN PART OF ROOM. THE TV REMOTE DIDNT WORK. THE RESTAURANTS POOR TO WORSE. SERVICE THERE BAD. OVERALL WOULD NOT STAY AGAIN. October 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Pete55 Fine Hotel Away from the noise of the center of Washington, the Westin Georgetown makes sleep possible, and yet also is within easy reach of the Capitol. The room has the fine Westin Heavenly Bed, plus a fine,serviceable decor. The Restaurant was expensive, and did not meet our needs, but being vegan means that we can only expect so much. The staff was accommodating and friendly. Thanks for a very nice first four days in the Nation's Capitol. October 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Franchino Few issue to look after We were in room 821 The furniture in a room are not well placed. The cabinet is too close to the bed and no room is available to move in a rational way. You need to locate the furniture in a better manner. The lights in a bathroom are too bright. The tap with water very tight. September 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by mimi712 A mostly excellent experience We along with many guests stayed here for my son's wedding. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. The front desk was extremely accommodating. Many of us were able to check in early, however, there were some room mix-ups in locattons promised. Eventually all worked out. Two other issues were that the retrieval times of parked cars by the valet were often much longer than promised. This was problematic a few times. Last, make sure to read all the signs on your room's refrigerator and snacks. Unreasonably, if you move even pick up the snacks you pay and if you put any little item in the fridge, you are charged $100! So check your bill. We asked for and got refrigerators, as people visited our rooms, but most people did not. September 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Stu1944 reat featuresThis hotel has g Wonderful stay, staff were very professional and courteous. Valet parking staff were very helpful and prompt. would highly recommend this hotel when in Washington DC. September 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by PSJ27 Great location to all facilities Great place to stay, whether your in Vermont or Washington DC or State. Always friendly and take good care of you. Sleep and eat well September 13, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Doug84 Nice location Nice location in DC sights all available by walking or subway. Restrautants within the hotel are somewhat lackluster, cuisine below par. Houskeeping is average at best. Would recommend for location average for area. September 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by WillieF Hard to Assess The room was ok, minus the tempermental light switches. With all the remodeling, it was difficult to feel at ease moving around the lobby area. When it is completed, I suspect that this will not be an issue. September 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by jechho God option in DC Decent business hotel in West End, within walking distance to Georgetown. The rooms facing M and 24th street are somewhat noisy, so go for a courtyard room if you want quiet. Note that even the courtyard has it noise issues: The garbage dumpster to the building next door is usually picked up by a truck at 8am during the week, and there are weddings and other events out there during the weekends. Our stay ambassador who also checked us in, Garbrielle, was great, and went above and beyond for us finding a quiet room and helping us with the rather confusing spg platinum breakfast amenity. The restaurant is privately run, so the 20 dollars per room offered by the hotel did not cover an "spg" continental breakfast for two. However, after bringing this up, front desk took care of it. All in all a good stay, and we will probably return. September 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by TravelMore As Good as it Gets From arrival to check-out this was an exceptional hotel experience. This Westin is now completely renovated and so new, fresh, and spot on. The value for the rate is amazing. This location is perfect. The rooms are so comfortable. But, I saved the best for last, the staff is well trained, experienced, engaging, and at every touch point with us they knew the answers or how to make us feel good to be there. We will definitely refer all friends and colleagues to the Westin Georgetown. September 2, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by LupoGrigio Not a Cat 5 Hotel Sorry to say that this hotel relies on location only. It does not compare to other Cat 5 hotels in the Starwood portfolio. September 2, 2014

Webinar: Accelerating and Automated Rapid Microbial Testing
This pharma webinar was recorded on 14th November 2012:
Rapid microbial testing methods in quality control continue to gain acceptance in pharmaceutical manufacturing, but most companies continue to use manual, traditional methods. The ability to uncover results in less time than traditional methods provides compelling benefits to manufacturers. These benefits can be realised in environmental monitoring, sterility testing, water and bioburden testing. Experts in this pharma webinar demonstrate how rapid technologies, like the Growth Direct™ System can have an impact on microbial quality control and ultimately manufacturing.

AMA Northeast Karate Championships 2012
Date: 18th November
venue: Temple Park, South Shields
Start: 0900hrs
All clubs and federations are welcome.
Contact: AMA organiser 07939289711 or email
AMA International Open, 25th-26th Feb 2012, Ponds Forge International Sports Centre, Sheffield, UK
The International Open has long been an important event in the calendar for many competitors, attracting entrants from across the globe. Ponds Forge as a venue has a great deal to recommend it: the excellent facilities for spectators, competitors and officials; an impressive track record in hosting international events in a wide variety of disciplines; superb support staff; central location and ease of accessibility. Add to this the established culture of international competition in the historic steel city of Sheffield and all the ingredients are in place for a great tournament.
This year's event saw over 450 entrants from 17 countries and 58 different groups or federations (including some from outside the WUKF) over the two days. The WUKF statutes do not exclude other organisations from participating in their events, encouraging exchange of skills and friendship. The WUKF kumite disciplines of Shobu Ippon, Shobu Nihon and Shobu Sanbon as well as team and individual kata events were contested, kata on the Saturday and kumite on the Sunday.
Organiser Peter Allen, 7th dan and AMA Vice President commented; "This has always been an important tournament for us, but we are very excited to be part of the WUKF organisation. This year's event promises to be amongst the best yet, with many countries and federations already enquiring about next year's championships".
Refereeing was overseen by WUKF Chief Referee Sever Cucu and AMA's senior official Mark Drake. Mr Cucu held a referees' seminar over the Friday and the Saturday and an impressive line-up of referees and judges was in attendance keeping the six matted areas busy.
The choice of Sheffield for this year's International was apposite for another reason. Peter Allen and the AMA have been granted the rights to host next year's Junior European Championships and have selected the English Institute of Sport, a few miles away as the venue.
It is also noteworthy that representatives of all the major karate federations in England were in attendance, including the three groups making up the newly-formed English Karate Council: hosts AMA, FEKO and Karate England, and all three had representatives ascend to the medal podium.
Harry Crook of SASKA proved a great all-rounder taking golds in three events: junior boys' Wado kata, weapons kata and boys' kumite.
Predictably, the Host AMA group topped the medal table with by far the largest contingent present, but notable were Melissa Holmes who took Gold in Shito and All Style kata, silver in Shobu Sanbon and bronze in the Shobu Ippon kumite. Other multiple, medallists from the AMA were Danielle Dunn with gold and two silvers, Sam Ernst with gold, silver and bronze, and Charlortte Bowie with a silver and two bronze medals all in kata.
Young Iyad Ali of ESKF took three kata medals including two first place trophies. FEKO, ESKF, Heian Ryu and Tai Kai all did well in the overall medal table, but of the visitors, the Ukraine team was impressive with four golds, five silvers and a bronze. Chris Galea's group from Malta has been a long time supporter of this event and his clan did his country proud with the Galea family taking six of the small island's nine medals.
The small group from Georgia tallied 5 medals including one from their national President Mzetchabuki Makharadze who was narrowly beaten in the Male Veterans' kumite by FEKO's Jason Smith. The male heavyweight kumite matched Karate England's John Anderson against the big Georgian, Kaxa Egnatashvil, with the home fighter taking the title.
The female Vets' kumite title was taken by Dudley's Mandie Read, a former WUKF champion in kata too. Her gold was more impressive as she was complaining of back pain during the warm up. The male Shotokan kata title was taken by Marco Mobilio, current WUKF World Champion, with Unsu.
The weekend was one of cordiality and great friendship, as typifies WUKF events, and all are in eager anticipation of not only next year's event, but also the upcoming WUKF European Championships in Irvine, and the Junior Europeans in Sheffield in 2013.
Sever Cucu expressed his pleasure with the standard of the refereeing and organizer Peter Allen praised the support team including the Ponds Forge team and the event coordinator, the ever reliable Jeff Grace.

Ponds Forge Sheffield was the place to be on the weekend of 25th & 26th February 2102. The AMA International Karate Championships was in town and back to it's best.
17 countries where being represented, 58 clubs/associations attended with over 450 competitors totalling over 800 individual events. The WUKF Chief referee Sever Cucu conducted a referee's seminar on the 24th February and the morning of the 25th February.

Mark Green from Shikon was upgraded to WUKF Continental referee, Peter Allen to WUKF Continental Kata Referee and Kumite Judge and Mark Drake to WUKF Continental Referee.
Some fantastic performances in the Kata and Kumite by past masters in the Veterans categories, also current World and European champions from WUKF where in attendance from the AMA, FEKO and KE, which incidentlly now form the 'New Governing Body for Karate in England'.
Many association champions also made up the array of talent on show, which made to an exiting competition in the steel city. The standard was excellent, the organizer Mr Peter Allen was asked, have you missed the EKF & WKF, he said, take a look around and see the happy faces, no restrictions, anyone can enter, karate ka from all federations enjoying a wonderful weekend together as it use to be before 2007. Not at all, there's more on offer outside of the EKF & WKF.
Melissa Holmes from the AMA won the competitor of the day on Saturday for the Kata
Shane Rudge from FEKO won the competitor of the day on Sunday for the Kumite
Mark Green from Shikon won Referee of the championships.
Next years date has already been set, so please put it in your diary 16th & 17th February 2013.
Dear Ed
Please may I use your web site to pass on my thanks to all those that attended the AMA Northeast Karate Open 2011, at Temple Park Sports Centre on 13th November. A fantastic day was had by all, so much so that I've booked the venue for next year already.The date will be 18th November 2012, so please add this to your new year diary.
Good to see clubs from the many groups in the UK including those that don't agree with 21.9 in their current federation. It's about time groups stood their ground and showed their executive board that this rule has no place in Karate. I take my hat off to those that attended, their students had a great day.
Also many thanks to USKA & Kensho Karate club members who helped with the running of the event. Special thanks to Mark Drake and his band of AMA officials and also to Darryl Bagley and his AMA medical team for covering the event.
Looking forward to next year.
Kind regards
AMA Competition Organiser
EKA Editor

Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro Hits the FCC
A powerful phone in a small package is what Sony Ericsson is doing with the Xperia Mini Pro. This little phone has almost all the features you'd want in a quality smartphone yet it is small and even has a QWERTY keyboard. It has a 2.8" screen, a front facing camera and even a 1 Ghz CPU yet the entire phone is still tiny. It just hit the FCC so it shouldn't be long now.

Eco Kitchen 101: Organic, Healthy Food can be Efficient and Cheap.
>> Plan ahead. Buy in bulk and use your own containers. Prepare extra when cooking staples such as rice or baked squash, or simple dishes like soups that will keep for several days. This saves time, energy and nips stress in the bud.
>> Kitchen organization and design helps. No need for a total make-over-awareness itself makes a huge difference. Install good lighting with energy efficient bulbs. Use eco-friendly soaps and cleansers and few, if any, paper towels. Use less water by washing dishes without running water or replacing an old dishwasher with an efficient Energy Star-rated one (European models can be great). Donate to non-profits who offer free totes. Then keep them by every door and in your car or backpack so you'll have one with you for books, groceries, the gym…
>> Be vigilant, not hardhearted. Set your standards high for an environmentally-responsible kitchen. But if you see a friend holding a Styrofoam cup of chain-store coffee and toting a plastic bag full of artifi cial, processed foods, be kind. Change takes time. Chastising won't solve the problem-humor and inspiration by example might.

Boca Raton, Florida (CBS12) -- Boca Raton Police held several men at gunpoint on the roof of a parkinggarage after people told nearby officers about men armed with guns andputting on body armor, according to Boca Raton Police Chief DanAlexander.
But what started as a tense situation ended up being acase of what police are calling poor decision making: Police say thegroup was getting ready for an action photo shoot for a Comic-Con eventand the weapons were actually stage props.
It happened Saturdaywhen a group of people saw the five men dressed in "military-styleoutfits" taking guns out of a trunk, Alexander wrote on his blog.
Theconcerned people found two police officers on foot patrol nearby inMizner Park, which led to the officers heading up to the roof of thegarage with guns drawn.
"We are naturally concerned aboutpossible active shooter and/or terrorist incidents, so our officershotfooted their way to the scene," Alexander wrote.
Policeordered the men - all in their 20s - to the ground before finding outthe good news. Officers said the men, including one with two samuraiswords on his back, planned on doing a photo shoot involving twosuperheroes and two terrorists.
A photo on the blog shows ared-and-black mask, a helmet and several tactical vests along with anassault-type rifle and handguns.
"Some folks are getting carriedaway in their quest for the next great social media post," Alexanderwrote. "Someone is going to get hurt."
The chief asks parents totalk with their children about these situations to help avoid possiblecasualties. In the end, Alexander wrote that the men walked away fromthe potentially deadly situation with trespassing warnings.

Archive for the 'mentor' tag
jadawin is flying solo
After about 4 months of mentoring my protege, Philippe Audeoud, along with thierry@, we have cast him free to commit in the wild.
Good luck jadawin, go into the world, and commit to your heart's content!
Introducing new Ports Commiter, Philippe Audeoud aka [email protected]
I have been fortunate to work with Philippe since the fall, now I get to tor-ment him, along with Thierry Thomas.
This is my first mentee, so let's hope it is a positive experience for all involved
Once upon a time
I submitted a PR to assume maintainership of net/citrix_ica on May 25, 2006. It was my first real port PR, and it wasn't even formatted correctly! I was fortunate, a sympathetic committer (clsung) committed it anyway. A little over a year, and almost 300 PRs later I have been elevated to the ranks of rookie Ports Committer.
Irconically, Cheng-Lung Sung, my first committer, has become my mentor. Seems like the great cycle of life. Under his mentorship I have committed some of my own ports, and closed about a dozen PRs. No pointyhats, yet! Yet is the operative word, I know it is looming out there, it is just a matter of when.
In the meantime, keep the PRs coming, and I will keep on committing.

Women In Development Europe (WIDE) is a European feminist network of women´s organisations, development NGOs, gender specialists and women´s rights activists. WIDE monitors and influences international economic and development policy and practice from a feminist perspective.
Brussels, 25 November 2010
International Day of Elimination of Violence Against Women
Ending Structural Violence Against Women
Priority for Human Rights
On 25th of November 2010, on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (VAW) WIDE denounces the structural violence against women, be it economic, political, social and/or cultural as it causes unfair distribution of power and resources and produces suffering and death.
Women across the world expience /are subject to various types of gender violence throughout their lives: One in three women will be raped, beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused in her life time[1]. For women and girls 16–44 years old, violence is the major cause of death and disability[2]. Besides those, other more subtle forms of violence co-exist that are not less harmful: structural forms of violence against women are common violations of human's rights today:
- Structural violence against women is violence that does not hurt or kill through guns, knives or beats, but kills through economic, political and social structures (or lack of them) that produce poverty and enormous suffering.
- Structural violence against women occurs whenever a woman is disadvantaged by political, legal, economic practises and institutions or cultural traditions. It occurs when the social order (or disorder) directly or indirectly causes human suffering and death.
- Structural violence against women is a direct consequence of the neo-liberal and patriarchal agenda we are still facing today: this agenda goes hand in hand with the cuts in social services, the liberalization of trade and investment, market deregulation, privatization and non intervention of governments.
- Structural violence against women is a consequence of the current economic and development system that put profit making above rights and wellbeing of people.
WIDE makes a call to governments and institutions to acknowledge the relevance of economic and structural violence against women as grave forms of gender violence. Effective social and economic policies need to be put in place to guarantee women a life free of any kind of violence and the fulfillment of human rights, including social andeconomic rights.

Comments about Whirlwind Director Deluxe Direct Box:
When you consider the price, you won't find a better direct box.The previous reviewer is comparing it to a box over 2 times the cost. This is not an apple to apples comparison review.I also disagree that the passive circuitry lacks the "air" presence in that of active boxes. I would prefer to call it the "swell or tightness of the bottom end." This box holds that tightness without limitations or swell like other passive boxes in its class.This box is extremely durable and reliable. I have many of them and not having an LED has never been a problem in diagnosing an in-line issue.You can purchase this direct box with confidence in knowing you are getting quality and reliability whether it is for live or recorded sound.
Comments about Whirlwind Director Deluxe Direct Box:
The Whirlwind Director does the job but lacks some nice features available in the BOSS DI-1. 1. Rocker switches on the Director are easily bumped and changed. This can be a problem when live and accidentally changing from line/inst settings.2. The passive circuitry just does not provide the "air" present in active boxes.3. Since the Director is passive it does not have an LED to indicate it is available for use. Just one more variable to diagnose in setup situations.

NYPD: Man Who Shot Officer Also Wanted in Killing
The man accused of shooting a New York City police officer point-blank in the head was also wanted in the first killing of 2012, department officials said Wednesday.
Luis Ortiz, 21, was being held on a charge of attempted murder of a police officer after the shooting Tuesday evening in Brooklyn. Officer Kevin Brennan was shot in the head but is expected to recover.
Ortiz was suspected of firing two rounds at someone, which brought the officers to the scene, Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Wednesday. He fled, and Brennan pursued him around the back of the building at the Bushwick Houses public housing development, where the two squeezed through an open emergency exit before it shut behind them. The two other officers who responded with Brennan were trapped outside.
Surveillance video showed Brennan in a headlock, then being shot in an alcove and lying unmoving while the suspect flees, Kelly said.
Ortiz was caught near the scene about two hours later at an apartment where his uncle was staying, police said. A revolver was found outside, but police are still investigating whether it fired the bullet that lodged in Brennan's skull.

Police are also investigating where the gun was bought.
Ortiz had been wanted for questioning in the first killing of 2012 - on New Year's Day around 1:30 p.m., not far from Tuesday night's shooting. A 34-year-old man was shot in the head in a still-unsolved killing. Kelly did not say whether Ortiz was the suspect, but a revolver was believed to have been used.
Kelly said Ortiz also had 14 prior arrests. Ortiz was in police custody, and it wasn't clear if he had an attorney. There was no answer to a call to the address that police provided.
After the gunman fled, the two officers pried open the emergency door, saw Brennan and called for an ambulance. There was no time to send the officer to the operation room, so doctors pulled the bullet from his head in the emergency room.
"He is one lucky young man," Kelly said Tuesday evening, as he held up a jar containing the bloody bullet during a news conference at Bellevue Hospital Tuesday night.
Brennan remained in critical but stable condition Wednesday. He was in a lot of pain, Kelly said.

American Flaneur: The Cosmic Physiognomy of Edgar Allan Poe
Taylor & Francis, 15.03.2004 - 200 Seiten
American Flaneur investigates the connections between Edgar Allen Poe and the nineteenth-century flaneur - or strolling urban observer - suggested in Walter Benjamin's discussion of Baudelaire. This study illustrates the centrality of the flaneur to Poe's literary aims, and uses the flaneur to illuminate Poe's intimate yet ambivalent relationship to his surrounding culture.
While James V. Werner concentrates on Poe's fiction, this book treats many areas of nineteenth-century intellectual and popular culture, including science and pseudo-science, the American magazine marketplace, urban topology, the grotesque, labyrinths, narratives of exploration and discovery, and cosmological treatises. Werner draws on Marxist, reader response and periodical theories while reconstructing Poe through examinations of ephemeral texts of the time.

PAWTUCKET – The learning curve is steep and slippery for Tolman High's talented but inexperienced squad.
The Tigers, who started off this breakthrough Division I campaign with four wins in their first five league games, hit a wall over the past two days. First they dropped an 11-2 verdict to unbeaten North Kingstown on Thursday and then on Friday they fell to Toll Gate by an 8-5 score in eight innings.
"We were never in the North Kingstown game," Tolman coach Craig Giarrusso admitted on Friday afternoon following the disappointing loss to Toll Gate. "But this game today, we let it get away from us. It was an uphill battle. I thought we did some good things. We just made some mistakes and gave them a few extra outs. You can't give a good team like Toll Gate any extra chances."

Flexible Beginner/Intermediate Boot
By UCI PAPHI SNOW
from Orange County, CA
About Me Beginner
Haven't been boarding in a while, needed something to go with the board/binding set I had sitting in the closet.Friends recommended BOA technology as the future for lacing boots. Deferred to K2 and found it on evo for a decent price (can't wait for Skidazzle right?)It arrived and was as described...actually better. I broke the boots in wearing them around the house with the socks I would be wearing on the mountain.Boots felt great on the mountain, breathable. Really no complaints besides the BOA loosening up after about half a day's worth of riding...which is really easy to fix right after you unclip and ready for the next chair ride.Afterwards, the mud and ice was easy to clean off of the boot. Ran it under the cabin bathtub.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was spot on, if not early.Arrived in new condition.
Comfortable and very warm.
By JoPoW
from Long Island, NY
The boot looks very good, nice quality look and smooth finish. My bindings have worn some marks into it already and I've only ridden then about three times. But I guess that's expected. They are very comfortable and very warm. I've worn them in temps in the teens and while snowing. My feet were never wet and they never got cold. That's pretty awesome! Only wish I could adjust the tightness around the toes and ankles separately. But then again for this price I can't really complain.
Great Boots for the Money
By Butters
from Frederick, MD
I've used these boots a few times since I got them and they preformed very well. This is my first pair with the boa system and i love it so far. Only complaint is that the black and white color scheme seems a little dull.

K2 Raider Boots

Well Built Boots
By King Whale
from Grand Rapids, Mi
I bought these boots to replace the Vans boots with Boa system that I have been using for years, and to be honest, I don't feel like they are as solid of a boot. With that being said, these are still great boots and the price makes them totally worth buying. The Vans were twice as much when I bought them, and for the price I would actually go with these K2's. Basically, good boots, just stiff enough, great fit, etc. Buy them and you most likely won't be disappointed at all.
As always, Evo shipped quick and everything was still perfectly in tact when it arrived a few days later.
This Boot is AWESOME
By Gdog
from Polk City, Iowa
These boots are extremely comfortable. This is only my second pair of boots, and I am very impressed. I do a lot riding, and they are super easy to take on and off. The Boa system is also very easy and nice. I haven't had any issues yet.
Sweet Boots, Sweet Price
By Burfrank

Good fit and great Boa system for a great price
delivery was smooth with no issues
Very comfortable
By Ra
from Boston, MA
This Boots are awesome and offer a good amount of stiffness for me to tackle the entire mountain. I had a pair of Burton Boots that I thought had too much flex so I ordered these. For the sale price, I think these are totally worth it!

In a Columbus Eastside-related Facebook group, someone told me that a Pakistani community center called 'Masjid Namrah' is now located here.
Mark_L (or anyone else local to Columbus), can you walk or drive by the location and verify this? These pages give the same address as the old Forum, but I don't know if they moved into the cinema building or if they tore it down to build something new.
That's quite a drop, from 660 to 300.
From that website, it appears that they have officially changed the name to 'Linden Cleve Theatre'.
When did this close?
Are you sure? I saw it at the Grand Cinerama.
Thanks – when was the reopening day, and what is the theatre now being used for?
Do you happen to know when it closed?
Is this still closed? If so, the status needs updating.
What is the current status of this construction project?
I believe this has been demolished.
Is it still standing? This page says 'Renovating' which I somewhat doubt.
The front entrance next to Main Street is now an Aldi grocery store. The rest of the property appears to now be some sort of warehouse or light industrial district.
Looks like this has mostly become a residential subdivision, back behind the medical center and Golden Corral restaurant buildings that were on either side of the entrance.
This location is now a Wal-Mart.
The map location is at Main and Yearling, which is not at all consistent with either my memory of the place, or the aerial photo.
The map location shown here looks wrong — way east of where it should be.
Are you sure about the closing date? I lived in Columbus from 1968-75, and what I remember at this address is a Zayre department store, a SupeRx drugstore, and various smaller shops clustered around a big parking lot.
What organization is trying to restore it, and what sort of entertainment do they plan to have?
Any indication of when the new replacement (National Amusements) cinema will open?
I'd hope they are headed for another theatre and not a scrapyard!
How will the Drexel ever show old movies if they no longer have any projectors?
What are the two shows? Are they a joint venture between ArtsEmerson and the Wang Center?
Maybe you are thinking of "Hail Mary", another film that attracted Catholic protesters.
I thought the 70mm Master was going to Coolidge Corner, not here?
This place is gorgeous! Quite an unexpected find in an otherwise pretty depressing city center.
Does it still look like a movie or stage theatre inside, with the original raked seating? What sort of events will it host once it is restored?
