Reasons why Albany Med is the best place for treatment of neurological conditions, from the simple to the complex,
Albany Medical Center Ranked #1 in Market by U.S. News & World Report
Albany Med was ranked first in the Albany-Schenectady-Troy area in U.S. News & World Report's "America's Best Hospitals 2011-2012." Including neurology and neurosurgery, 10 specialties at Albany Med were listed as "high performing" including: cancer; diabetes and endocrinology; ear, nose and throat; gastroenterology; geriatrics; gynecology; nephrology; orthopedics; and urology.
Albany Med Lauded for Outstanding Clinical Quality in Stroke, Heart Attack and Heart Failure
Albany Medical Center has been recognized by the American Heart Association/Stroke Association for leading the nation in following evidence-based guidelines for patients with heart failure, coronary artery disease and stroke. By receiving the Gold Performance Achievement Award in all three categories, Albany Med becomes one of only two hospitals in New York State, and one of 13 in the nation, to receive this distinction under the American Heart Association/Stroke Association's Get With The Guidelines (GWTG) program.
Hospital Collaboration Improves Care for Saratoga County Stroke Patients
Saratoga Hospital and Albany Medical Center are collaborating to speed and enhance the evaluation and treatment of stroke patients from the Saratoga Region—and to give them faster access to cutting-edge treatments at Albany Medical Center, when appropriate. The two hospitals are linked electronically, allowing emergency physicians at Saratoga Hospital and stroke specialists at Albany Medical Center to view patient scans simultaneously, in real time, and consult on the best course of treatment. This streamlines the process for identifying those who need advanced care, and gets them to Albany Medical Center more quickly..
Albany Med Receives Stroke Center Certification from Joint Commission
Albany Medical Center has been awarded the Primary Stroke Center Certification from the Joint Commission., and has earned the organizations Gold Seal of Approval for being a Joint Commission-accredited institution with an advanced certification in stroke care.
Albany Med's Epilepsy Program Receives Highest National Designation
For the fifth time, Albany Medical Center's Epilepsy and Human Brain Mapping Program has received a Level 4 designation, the highest designation offered by the prestigious National Association of Epilepsy Centers (NAEC). Level 4 centers have the most advanced medical and surgical diagnostic and treatment options for patients with complex epilepsy. Albany Med shares this designation with programs of high distinction such as Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins, and NYU Medical Center.
Alzheimer's Disease Center Regional 'Center of Excellence'
The New York State Health Department designated the Alzheimer's Center of Albany Med as the Capital Region's Alzheimer's Disease Assistance Center (ADAC) and awarded nearly $450,000 in state funding over a five-year period. Albany Med is one of only nine ADACs in New York State. The centers must meet high standards and provide high-quality diagnostic and assessment services for patients with dementia or Alzheimer's; patient management and care; training and continuing education to medical professionals; and serve as a regional resource center, or "Center for Excellence," for Alzheimer's disease diagnosis, care and resources.
Area Research Alliance Announces Grants to Fund Biomedical Research Alzheimer's disease research at Albany Med received a boost from the NY CAP Research Alliance, a Capital Region Economic Development Council priority project aimed at fostering research among the area's leading academic research institutions. $250,000 is funding studies including the pursuit of a fast and effective way to diagnose Alzheimer's Disease and differentiate it from other forms of dementia, as well as the development of a sensor for the early detection of Alzheimer's Disease. Other awards in the field of neurosciences include $85,000 to study prevention of neuropathic pain and $75,000 to develop a novel implantable sensor for use in orthopedics and neurosurgery.
Merging Minds with Machines, Albany Med Leads International Academic Partnership
Anthony Ritaccio, MD, and Gerwin Schalk, PhD, are leading an international academic partnership to create a research lab in Italy that may someday help those who are paralyzed or disabled communicate with computers and prosthetic devices using only their thoughts. Albany Med's brain-computer interface (BCI) research has garnered widespread national and international attention and has been featured in The New York Times Magazine, National Public Radio, El Mundo (Spain), on CBS Sunday Morning, and exhibited in the American Museum of Natural History.

posted at 1/20/2009 10:01 AM ESTFirst off.... forget about any whining saying that PC has to make a trade. That's not what this post is about.
With all the injuries we're getting chances to bring up some P-Bruins to get some experience. I wouldn't mind Marchand getting a little taste of the big time to whet his appetite and maybe give him a little bit of motivation to bring his game up to snuff.
Has anybody been watching the P-Bruins? How's Marchand looking this year? Or alternatively, who else would you like to see get a game or two experience in a callup role?
Brad Marchand?
posted at 1/20/2009 10:23 AM ESTWell, the best player down at Providence is far and away Nokelainen. Of course with injuries, he was called up, and then of course injured himself.
Other than that dude, we've seen the callups. Sobotka, St Pierre, even Lashoff and Hnidy....
I mean its one thing to call up a minor league star, but were already calling up 2nd liners, haha. Weve already gone through the first line.

"I think it's really going to help me with my math and all my subjects in school." That is how 11-year-old Kalee Guin explains the Christmas gift she received. It is a gift she has been asking Santa for a very long time. Thanks to the non-profit organization Sight Savers America, Kalee can now read things that used to give her trouble. Kalee received a multi-view electronic video magnifier, or EVM, that should help her in more than just reading.
Leigh Downs from Sight Savers America explains, "It will magnify whatever you're looking at up to 79 times its original size. It will do it close up if you're trying to read and also has a distance camera if you're trying to view from a distance."
Kalee has cerebral palsy and is visually impaired, but her vision problems are not because she has bad eyesight. Instead, her mother tells us it is a problem in the brain that gives Kalee trouble.
Sally Long, Kalee's mother, tells us, "She can see very well and only has problems with distance, but it is more of a problem with brain signals, and this will help magnify all of her words and her math problems and many things she can do with her magnifier, and it will assist her in just lots of daily activities that she can do."
Kalee will use the device at home for now, and once she gets used to it, she may be able to receive one to use at school. Kalee tells us she is excited to finally have her EVM.
"I've been waiting," says Guin. "It's going to help me with my reading and everything else. I'm very excited that I have it now."
Long says she cried when she found out they were approved to get the device, and Kalee jumped around in joy.

Fred DuVal for Governor?
If you are planning to vote for Democrat Fred DuVal for Governor of Arizona you need to realize the following facts:
DuVal was an aide to Democratic Governor Bruce Babbitt who sent in the National Guard and Department of Public Safety goons to break the strike of hundreds of striking copper miners employed by Phelps Dodge corporation in Clifton, Morenci, Ajo, and surrounding communities in Southern Arizona in 1983. Striking workers and their families were tear gassed, arrested, beaten and terrorized by state agents acting in concert with Phelps Dodge. The United Steelworkers Union was defeated and decertified as a result of this unholy alliance. To this day, the mostly Latino union activists and their descendants refer to Governor Babbitt as "Scabbitt".
This is a fact that many Arizona Democrats are either unaware of, or simply don't care about. The 1983 strike is not something that was "in the past" and is no longer relevant as some party insiders would like to believe. The great American writer William Faulkner said: "The past is never dead. It's not even past."
The defeat of the strike against Phelps Dodge had implications as significant as the defeat of the PATCO strike under Ronald Reagan for workers nationwide. It was one of the first times in the postwar era that a private company hired PERMANENT replacement workers to break a strike and destroy the union. In rapid succession, striking workers at Greyhound, American Airlines, Hormel and other companies found themselves permanently replaced by workers making half their wages with fewer benefits in a corporate-driven race to the bottom that continues to this day.
This must be acknowledged by today's Arizona Democratic Party and by Fred DuVal in his effort to win rank and file latino/labor support. DuVal should make amends with the United Steelworkers Union and the survivors of the 1983 strike by apologizing to them for the role played by his boss, Bruce Babbitt, in crushing the strike. He should support the repeal of the state's right to work law as part of his campaign as well as support the enactment of collective bargaining laws for all public employees in Arizona.
None of this is likely to occur anytime soon. Yet if DuVal's campaign for Governor is to overcome the legacy of Arizona's sour past, it must be done. The late, Democratic, Senator Paul Wellstone said: "If we don't fight hard enough for the things we stand for, at some point we have to recognize that we don't really stand for them"

Our celebration of the Feast of the Holy Trinity today challenges us to consider: Who is God for us? As Christians we believe in God as revealed by Jesus: who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, a God of love, mercy and judgment.
Our Bible Readings today help us to rejoice in the great God of love. Our First Reading from Proverbs 8:22-31 ends by telling us that God delights to be with people. Our Second Reading from Romans 5:1-5 speaks of our being at "peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" and we can have great hope because the "love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us."
There is so much to explore and celebrate in our understanding of God as revealed by Jesus who tells us in today's Gospel that he sends the Holy Spirit of truth to guide us into the way of God's truth (John 16:12-15). As we seek and search and celebrate our faith and understanding of who God is, we pray "in the name of the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit."
* Our Lady of Mount Carmel School children will help us in our celebration of a Family Mass a 10:00 AM this Sunday.
* We ask your special prayers for the coming of the Holy Spirit upon 25 high school candidates and 2 adult candidates from our parish who will celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation through the ministry of Bishop Robert Barron, Auxiliary Bishop for the Santa Barbara Region, at Holy Eucharist at 12 noon Mass this Sunday. May the Holy Spirit come upon all with the fullness of the gifts of Wisdom and Understanding, Right Judgment and Courage, Knowledge and Love, and Reverence in God's service.
* Next Sunday is the Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ. The annual commissioning ceremony for all Eucharistic Ministers will take place next Sunday after the homily at each Mass.
* As mentioned on recent Sundays, Archbishop Gomez of our Archdiocese of Los Angeles has appointed Father Lawrence Seyer as Pastor of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish beginning July 1, 1966. He will take the place of Father Steve Downes who will retire as Pastor on June 30th at 75 years of age. A short biography of Father Lawrence will be found elsewhere in today's bulletin.
* In retirement, Father Steve Downes will continue to live at Our Lady of Mount Carmel and hopes to support and assist our new Pastor, Father Lawrence, and also continue ministry to the sick.
Many thanks to all for your generous contributions to our Church in the Offertory Collection each Sunday. Here is the report on the Offertory Collection for Sunday, April 23rd/24th:

Our parish was blessed last Sunday at the 10:00 AM Mass with the Baptism of Julie April Baudoin-Holland and the reception into the Catholic Church of Russell Adrian Holland, Joshua Michael McDonough, Diana Kay O'Keefe and Terry Wilmon. All celebrated the reception of the Holy Spirit in Confirmation and their First Holy Communion.

How do people remember the fallen cyclists in their community. Are they remeberd at all. DO people rely on outdated newspaper clippings, flowerd street posts or police collision reports.
In Toronto, Chicago, and New York the white bikes have hit the streets with chains and white paint. The ghost bikes are accusing the motorist. Accusing the trucks and thier right red light turns. Accusing the drivers as being criminally responsible in the death of young and old cyclists. Negligence is no excuse for death.
What can we do?!

yeah, or cable, or storm, doom, etcI think I know what you talking about. You talking about if you do Magneto's cr. LK, and then you a manual dash with the stick (Forward, Forward)? I think you can do that in this game. Imma have to check.
This is going to sound bad, but footdive SHOULD have the ground bounce. It's scrubby, sure, but the long confirm time is actually one of the things that makes it so strong. Doom being above you is one of the only scary things about the character. It makes you respect him. You can't just throw out random normals and try to trade because he will almost always win. Take away the ground bounce, and it's not nearly as scary anymore because most trades will eliminate a large portion of the threat.tfsdfsdfsf.
I'm more interested in the sofa in that picture.
The sofa and the pillow look really good together; along with the contrast it brings with the room.
Did they give any information on the Furnishings or only the picture?
not that its important, but hayato would be really cheap in this game....the definition of "cheap".

I honestly think this man Drops combos on purpose.
If they update this game I would love to see a way to switch between assists in training mode without having to switch characters. Is that too much to ask?

Is there a version of UMvC3 floating about that plays character themes in training mode as opposed to stage specific themes? I noticed in a few different videos people have the character theme playing and it resets every time they start a new clip as if they pressed start+select.
I've never noticed any options for it. Just volume and original/dynamic. I guess character thee are with original mode?...What's with people forgetting how the options work in this game? First the assists in training, now this.
Just go into the options in the Main Menu, it's not that hard from there.

Solid concept. I wonder if maybe a stick with a touch pad would be viable in future fighters? Not for actual controls, of course, but for stuff like character select screens. However, this would require a game built specifically for the stick...I was thinking a bit earlier, "What if UMvC3 (or any other FG really) was ported to the Wii U? If you were playing locally, would your characters be kept secret at the character select screen and only you would be able to see your choices through the gamepad?" Then, I realised that no one in their right mind would ever use a Wii U controller for a fighting game.
Why does everybody has doctor doom? Can they only do damage with their swag combo? I get my ass beat every time and only get taunts because I just suck! I I thought people were more mature than that. I have tasky/I don't know/Spencer I get pissed every time they t-bag and taunt me!
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk
I mean I'm cool if they do it while fighting. I just don't like it at the end. Like when you get really beaten up, their feeling superior or something. I'm okay when they taunt at a comeback. I guess I just suck, just started playing with a stick ^_^
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
You can ask here right? Which one should I use as a secondary character? I have tasky on point and Spencer at last slot. I don't know which one I should have at the second slot. Is it actually a good team?
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
Well if you want my honest opinion, move Spencer to point and move Taskmaster to Second or Anchor. Better synergy since Taskmaster has a more applicable assist and Spencer is much better with help in the back. After that, your call though those Doom Missiles you were knocking earlier wouldn't be a bad choice.
Got a huge deal on 16"x20" canvas prints from Cafe Press (normally 135, but got it for 35 with free shipping) so I got a nice print of my Taskmaster avatar. Goes well with my 4'x6' Dr. Doom wall art
You can't see it but on the slanted ceiling I have another 4' x 6' wall art of Spiderman and Wolverine... here's the pic from their website:
My Mahvel room is pretty decked out!
Dem posters!
speaking of which, I just picked up a sick doom shirt I saw Infrit wearing. (firstattack.com)
Did you draw that doom painting? It's pretty bada$$
Those posters are sick lol.
Also I just got my stick about 3 days ago, It really does feel like a 1up from a controller and that's coming from a pad lover. Plinking all dayy especially in SF4.
However, man..Its gonna take me some time to get fully used to UMVC3 on a stick. Assist calling is incredibly awkward finger position wise. Especially if I use heavy moves + assist two with the default button layout. Also don't fully seem to have the hang of SRK motions yet but I heard it took most 2 weeks + to get used to a stick so Im gonna ''stick'' (hihi) with it.
However I could already do stinger > Reverb BC with a 100% consistency in the first 5 minutes of using a stick, so that alone makes this pain soooo worth it. I struggled so hard with that shi- on pad and its a huge part of Te's neutral. If anyone has random tips for pad / stick transitions feel free to chip in xD
can anyone explain to me how i option select grabs? like just normal h grabs not command grabs.
In addition to what @JediLink said, you can OS ground throws that you know you're going to get with snapback or simply up back. This prevents the mash ground H game.can anyone explain to me how i option select grabs? like just normal h grabs not command grabs.
Because Capcom didn't even try when porting it, it has frame rate drops when there is a lot of stuff on screen. It isn't too bad, but if there are multiple install supers and assists or hypers, it's noticeable.Why does everyone hate the PS3 version of UMvC3?

This past weekend, I went on a rock and roll cruise from Miami to the Bahamas and back. There were stiff drinks, great tunes, and of course, lots of fabulous outfits. Here are some resort 2012 fashion tips I gleaned from the experience. More
In a post this morning, WWD project a big, big, BIG! trend for Resort 2012: the ultra wide leg. "Resort," you say, "That's not a legitimate season!" Well, that may be true but it doesn't matter: one fall 2011 trend that emerged right out of the gates this past NYFW was wide leg trousers and they were everywhere. Too bad they seldom work on anyone. More
Karl Lagerfeld loves making short films in support of his various fashion endeavors. The following is one he made for the Chanel Resort 2012 collection, starring supes like Chanel-face Freja Beha, Bianca Balti and the amazing Kristen McMenamy, his muse the Lady Amanda Harlech, and a host of male supers too: Brad Kroenig, Mark Vanderloo and (of course) Baptiste Giabiconi. It's almost thirty minutes in total, but who doesn't have thirty minutes to spare for all those beautiful people? …Okay, if you don't, you can watch the first few minutes which feature McMenamy as a wealthy lady with a raging temper. More
The 2012 Resort season is off! The shows started with a strong collection of monochromatics, pastel tweeds and flowing fabrics at Chanel (sidenote: I recognize the absence of a literal red carpet here but Gravel Walkway Rundown didn't get the point across). You can check out the full collection, marvel at 46-year-old supe Kristen McMenamy looking magnificent in our coverage from yesterday and in the following gallery see out what famous attendees (like Blake Lively, Rachel Bilson and Alexa Chung) wore to watch the show.

Best in Blogs: The Battle Over the Ground Zero Cross
Will Miso breaks replace coffee breaks? Why did Alexander McQueen leave $82,000 to his dogs? And why did a group file a suit over the Ground Zero Cross? A look at the most interesting posts from the Wall Street Journal blogs.
The Brewing Battle Over the Ground Zero Cross: An atheist advocacy organization filed suit today in New York state court to protest the cross that is a part of a memorial display at Ground Zero to the victims of the 9/11 attacks. [Law]
Will 'Miso Breaks' Become the New Coffee Break?: Japan's largest miso producer hopes its new contraption will persuade some groggy office workers to replace coffee breaks with miso ones. Marukome Co. will start selling a new miso soup dispensing machine that makes brewing the Japanese staple even more instant, a simplification that the company hopes will boost consumption. [Japan Real Time]
Alexander McQueen Left $82,000 to His Dogs: Design legend Alexander McQueen has left 50,000 pounds (about $82,000) to his three dogs, according to details of his will released Tuesday. Estate planning to ensure one's pets are taken care of is not as obscure as one might think. [Speakeasy]
Mrs. Tom Thumb's Blues: Think travel is hard? Think how hard journeying around the world was for Mrs. Tom Thumb, the 32-in. high variety show attraction. [Speakeasy]
Russian Mogul Pulls Electric Car from Financial Wreckage: Russian cardboard mogul Boris G. Zingarevich has purchased the electric-car manufacturer Think Global AS, marking yet another financial revival for a company that's faced demise several times throughout its 20-year existence. [Bankruptcy Beat]
Dysthymia: Fighting the Gloom: Dysthymia is a mild depression marked by feelings of hopelessness, irritability, low self-esteem and low energy that sticks around for at least two years. Think Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh. But how do you fight it? [Juggle]
Osaka Mystery: Lady Sculptures in Red: Many of the bronze sculptures lining Osaka's main street known as the "Champs Elysees of the Orient" got some artistic pop on Monday. Working in the dark of night, someone mysteriously gave the naked sculptures a wardrobe makeover, dressing about two-thirds of the 29 models in splashy red outfits late Sunday. [Japan Real Time]
NSA Lawyer Questioned Over Cellphone Location Tracking of Americans: Is the government using cellular data to track Americans as they move around the U.S.?

Matthew Olsen, who is currently at the NSA and has been nominated to lead the National Counterterrorism Center, discussed the possibility at a confirmation hearing Tuesday morning in the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

10 Ways That Managers Can Help Overworked Employees Reduce Stress
June 1, 1993
Here are ten ways managers can help:
- Allow employees to talk freely with one another. In an organization in which employees can talk freely with each other, productivity and problem-solving usually are enhanced.
- Reduce personal conflicts on the job. Here are three steps that employers can take to minimize conflicts: a) training managers and employees to resolve conflicts through communication, negotiation and respect; b) treating employees fairly; and c) defining job expectations clearly.
- Give employees adequate control over how they do their work. Workers are more productive and able to deal with stress better if they have some control over and flexibility in how they perform their work.
- Ensure that staffing and expense budgets are adequate. Heavier workloads can increase illness, turnover and accidents and decrease productivity. Therefore, a new project may not be worth taking on if staffing and funding are inadequate.
- Talk openly with employees. Management should keep employees informed about bad news as well as good news. Giving employees opportunities to air their concerns to management also is important.
- Support employees' efforts. Workers are better able to cope with heavy workloads if management is sympathetic, understanding and encouraging. Listening to employees and addressing their issues also is helpful.
- Provide competitive personal leave and vacation benefits. Workers who have time to relax and recharge after working hard are less likely to develop stress-related illnesses.
- Maintain current levels of employee benefits. Workers' stress levels increase when they see reductions made in their employee benefits. Employers must weigh carefully the savings gained from reducing benefits with the potentially high costs of employee burnout.
- Reduce the amount of red tape for employees. Employers can lower burnout rates if they ensure that employees' time isn't wasted on unnecessary paperwork and procedures.
- Recognize and reward employees for their accomplishments and contributions. Ignoring employees' accomplishments can lower morale and provoke talented and experienced employees to seek work elsewhere.

I have inheritted a 9" radial arm saw from dear old dad who purchased new in the late '60's, the model # is 113.29350. My problem is with the motor, or more specifically, the motor bearings. It has been outdoors for several years before I got it, and for several since and exposed to the elements which here in Phoenix amounts to heat, dust and the occaisional thunderstorm, it was under a covered patio but did get wet a few times, and over the years the bearings gave up. I have been able to find new bearings but I don't think this motor was intended to be taken apart and reassembled as it appears to be "glued" together. other than the bearings it worked great and I would like to keep it. ***** no longer stocks the motor (of course) so I come to this site looking for help. Any old stock, parting out a saw or simular model that will fit, or advise out there. It looks like I'm not the first one to experience this problem with the motor. The motor assembly # is 63008, and the complete motor assembly # is 63092. I'm a pretty handy kind of guy, but trying to "glue" this back together sounds like missing fingers, hands or other necessary body parts and unless I find a few other successful tries at it I think I'll pass. I thought lifetime gaurantee didn't end when it was no longer in stock, this is a concern as my house is well supplied by *****, and like me it ain't gettin any younger.

Tampa, FL (AP) - Republican Congressman Adam Putnam won the
race for Florida agriculture commissioner.
With 35 percent of the vote counted, Putnam led former
Tallahassee Mayor Scott Maddox 58 percent to 36 percent.
Putnam will head the powerful agriculture and consumer services
department. The job involves overseeing food safety, helping
farmers produce and promote their crops, managing public lands,
reducing wildfires and regulating consumer services.
Putnam is leaving after five terms in Congress. This was his
first run for statewide office.
Maddox was the state Democratic Party chairman in the mid-2000s
and briefly ran for governor in 2005 before dropping out.

Match Mahjong tiles to solve the puzzle!Are you a Mahjong lover and puzzle inlay fanatic? Then by all means try Mahjong Match – the harmonious union of two classic casual games! Take a tile from the conveyor belt and make a match with an identical tile on the gorgeous Mahjong board. You must find a match for every board tile to win. But be careful – you will lose a life if the conveyor fills up with tiles!
1.Select a tile from the conveyor belt, then drop it on an identical board tile to make a match! Some tiles will be blocked on the left and right sides or covered by top tiles.
2.If you cannot make a match, drop the tile in the golden box to the right of the Mahjong board. Once you click on a tile, you must make a match or discard it in the box.
3.Use power-ups to help solve the puzzle! Click on the magic wand to reveal possible matches or click on the bomb to clear tiles from the conveyor.
Mahjong Match Tips and Strategies
· Don't panic – you have time to make matches: Mahjong Match is very similar in gameplay to classic Mahjong Solitaire, even with the added challenge of the conveyor belt. Don't feel that you need to rush and grab the first tile that comes down the conveyor. If you stay calm and steadily find matches, the board will open up and you will be able to play those tiles piling up on the belt.
· Save picture tiles for last: Basic tiles must form an identical match in order to be played. On the other hand, picture tiles can be matched to any other tile from the appropriate flower or season set. So a winter tile can be matched with a summer tile, an orchid tile can be matched with a plum tile, etc. It's a good idea to get the identical matches out of the way first and leave the picture tiles on the conveyor belt for later. That way you have plenty of matching options later in a level.
· Drop duplicate tiles in the box: As you clear the board, you will probably notice duplicate tiles filling up the conveyor belt. If all tiles on the board are clearly visible, you can safely pick out which tiles are extras and drop them into the golden box. It's recommended that you don't start eliminating tiles until you can see most of the board – otherwise you might get rid of a needed tile by accident!
· Watch what tiles you grab: There is no undo button in Mahjong Match – once you take a tile from the conveyor belt, you must either make a match or discard it in the box. It pays to scan the board and look for matches before selecting tiles from the conveyor.
· Clear "target" tiles as quickly as possible: On some levels the Mahjong board will start off hidden. In order to reveal the board, look for the "target" tile – it should be located at the top of the board sandwiched between two regular tiles. Make it your top goal to clear these side tiles so that you can reveal the rest of the board.
· Try to time your discards: The golden box will close for several seconds after you drop a tile into it. Be careful about clicking on the next discard tile while the box is resetting – this will cause a backup that could lose you the game. Instead, watch the bar timer count down on the lid, then select the next tile just as the box is about to re-open.
· Fill up the dragon to earn cool power-ups: There is a dragon silhouette to the right of the board that slowly fills up as you match tiles. When the dragon turns completely gold, you will be awarded a power-up! The faster you make matches, the faster you can earn those power-ups. The bad news is the silhouette will slowly empty if you take too much time looking for a match or discarding tiles.
· Use power-ups to your advantage: The magic wand power-up will turn all matching tiles on the board and conveyor green, making it a snap to spot possible matches. This power-up is useful when the conveyor is filling up but the board is still cluttered, making it hard to find a match quickly.The bomb clears all tiles from the conveyor belt. This power-up is a life-saver if the conveyor is almost full but isn't quite as useful as the magic wand. After all, the magic wand helps you find matches and earn points.

Colonel Stuart Tootal is a defence and security expert who was commissioned into the Queen's Own Highlanders from Sandhurst in 1988. He initially served in Germany during the Cold War and completed several emergency tours of Northern Ireland during the 'Troubles'.
As Commanding Officer of the 3rd Battalion The Parachute Regiment (3 PARA), Stuart Tootal DSO commanded the UK's first battle group to deploy to Southern Afghanistan in 2006. Stuart's 1,200 strong battle group was tasked with providing security to reconstruction efforts.
During their six month deployment, Stuart's men saw near continuous combat – one gruelling battle after another – in what would become one of the most extraordinary campaigns ever fought by British troops. Relying on a few helicopters for food and ammunition resupply, troops were subjected to relentless Taliban attacks, as well as 50 degree heat and spartan conditions.
At the end of the tour, the Taliban offensive had been tactically defeated. But 3 Para paid a high price: fourteen soldiers and one interpreter were killed, and 46 wounded.
Stuart is now Head of Global Security for a major financial services provider.

Tim Gunn, Lance Bass & More Speak Out on Teen Bullying (VIDEO)Mara Siegler
Following the suicides of five young gay men this week, celebrities are speaking out. Ellen Degenerous did a segment on her show and Wanda Sykes, Kathy Griffin, Lance Bass, and Tim Gunn appeared on Larry King last night to join the fight against bullying.
Wanda and Kathy believe that bullying stems from homophobia in society and in the home. Tim Gunn, who attempted suicide as a youth, feels that it is based in fear.
Lance Bass, who is openly out, admits the he bullied gay students growing up Southern Baptist in the Bible Belt. "When you're 13, 14, you just go along with what the other people are doing. You just want to fit in. You want to make sure that your friends like you. So yeah, you're going to crack jokes, you're going to laugh along with it. And when you're a teenager, you're not really thinking, 'Oh, I'm being a bully by laughing along with it.'"
Everyone on the panel backs the Trevor project, a national 24-hour, toll free confidential suicide hotline for gay and questioning youth.

Robert Finfrock is setting a high-tech pace for precast producers.
Several producers have notably increased their stake in the North American concrete industry through trades and acquisitions in key markets.
During 2013-14, we have seen the exit of many executives who have dedicated their careers to the concrete industry. Their departures could mean significant changes globally.
The top public companies producing concrete in North America benefited from a recovering U.S. economy in 2013. Many had success in markets where residential construction rebounded.
Producers try to make the most of an improving economy by focusing on core businesses. Some budgets are still tight; others producers are buying new equipment.
The National Precast Concrete Association expects precast sales to grow 6%, or $16 billion, in 2014.

U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio and a handful of other Senators are winding up a four-day in Afghanistan and Pakistan where they met with military officials from both countries and dined with Afghan President Hamid Karzai last night.
From Kabul this morning, the freshman from Florida told reporters he was encouraged by what he saw but cautioned that "2011 is going to be a very crucial year for our efforts here."
Rubio joined Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Richard Burr of North Carolina, Marco Rubio of Florida, Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, on the trip where they met with Gen. David Petraeus and also watched Afghan National Army training exercises.
Rubio said the Afghan people and government need assurances from the U.S. that "we are in it for the long haul" and discouraged setting numbers for U.S. troop withdrawal from the region.
"People want to make sure that we are in this to win this. We are in this for the long haul," Rubio said. "Everyone on the ground is really enthusiastic about the progress that's being made…There's a long ways to go. There's no way to overestimate how serious the challenge is but we are headed in the right direction."
Benchmarks for U.S. withdrawal from the region should not focus on the number of troops returning but the number of areas that successfully transition to a functioning government, Rubio said.
"From everything I've seen here we are making physical progress," he said, adding, "You can't overestimate what a difficult challenge it is."
Afghanis need assurances that the U.S. will remain because they are afraid that "the bad guys" will resume control of the region, Rubio emphasized.
"They're afraid to vote. Theyr'e afraid to take jobs and work for the government or volunteer for the military…because …these bad guys are going to come back in and take over again," he said. "You are really creating a diff situation because people think the bad guys, the Taliban and Al-Qaeda, all they have to do is wait."

Michaele Salahi And Tareq Salahi To Divorce?
September 16, 2011 09:05 AM by Lisa Princ
Michaele Salahi of Bravo's The Real Housewives of DC was recently reported missing by husband Tareq, only to be later found with Journey rocker, Neal Schon. Tareq Salahi was devastated when he found out, and now he is filing for divorce from Michaele. Read on for more!
When Michaele Salahi was found in Tennessee, with Journey guitarist, Neal Schon, who is supposedly friends with both Tareq and Michaele, it struck Tareq that the pair were more than just friends. Rumors of an affair are all over the web, and one friend of Michaele's even told TMZ that Michaele confided in her about the affair two years ago saying: "I remember crying so hard once when I told Neal I couldn't see him – heartbroken. He was always the love I never knew where it would go," and "We promised one another that we would grow old together into our 80s and always love and be there for one another."
Apparently, Tareq Salahi is having none of that as sources claim he filed for divorce after learning about his wife's true whereabouts. According to TMZ, Tareq has been telling his friends that he no longer trusts Michaele, and even though he feels she will get tired of Neal Schon, he will never take her back. The site also reports that Tareq Salahi has already changed the locks on the couple's home.
What will become of the Salahis? Sources also say that Neal Schon told Michaele that he would have never married his wife, had he known how strong Michaele's feelings were for him. Not that any of that matters now as not one, but two marriages have been destroyed. Do you think Tareq and Michaele will divorce? Or is this yet another ploy to keep the couple in the media?

Resale Wedding Dresses
The economical issue is one of the most important features of a modern wedding affair. Most brides of today can't afford to buy a brand new wedding dress off the rack or even consider purchasing a designer wedding dress because their wedding budget is not generous as in most cases used to be in the last few years.
Things had changed consistently especially in matters of wedding dresses and bridal wears. These days, contemporary brides are willing to do anything for buying a cheap wedding dress that still can make them look of millions of bucks. But how far are you capable of going? Would you wear a pre-worn wedding dress? Do you know how many brides are selling their wedding dress? Do you know how many brides are buying a resale wedding dress?
Well, the number of those women who decide to wear an already worn wedding dress is constantly increasing. Why should you care if the wedding dress comes in a second hand format, as long as you love it and it is cheaper than any other type of wedding dress in similar designs!
Most brides are doing it, so why shouldn't you? This is a very frequent question that brides are asking themselves in order to cut the fear and the shame of purchasing a second hand wedding dress. Not only the fact that lots of brides are wearing a pre-worn wedding dress on their big wedding day, but also the fact that old, period or vintage wedding dresses are in vogue these years should convince you in buying such a dress.
There is no need to spend a fortune on a designer wedding dress that won't be worn gain in the following years. This might be the reason why so many brides decide to resale the wedding dress. A unique wedding dress will always be unique, charming, special and suitable only for the wedding and not for any other type of special occasion. But if you're not one of those brides who cares for her wedding dress that much and doesn't want to keep it as a wedding souvenir, the idea of reselling your wedding dress might not sound that bad after all.
So, if you're looking for pre-worn wedding dresses at good prices, you can start your search on the internet. Browse for a few pages on Ebay and see how many beautiful, charming and romantic second hand wedding dresses you can find in there.
You can also try to search on specialized vintage bridal websites that provide with antique wedding dresses, or simply look for personal blogs where brides have ads with "resale wedding dress". If you're afraid of purchasing a second wedding dress from the internet, you can hunt down the thrift stores in your city or the consignments or vintage clothing boutiques that can provide you with such types of inexpensive wedding dresses.11

I don't get it. I just don't understand. Why would anyone buy a dress that has already been worn? I understand renting it, as you take it and give it back, because you don't want to buy a wedding dress. But a resale wedding dress? OK, it might be for financial reasons. But then wouldn't be easier to rent it? I don't get it. I might buy an already worn wedding dress if I want to keep it afterward. But where's the logic in that? Or, if i so like one and then want to keep it or maybe transform it into something that I can wear on different occasions. Nevertheless, if I truly were to buy such a dress, I would definitely buy it from a person I know, from a friend or relative. Not just from anywhere.

The American flag is a powerful symbol of our nation, of freedom, and of the hopes and dreams of its people. Girl Scouts understand the great importance of our flag and regularly pay tribute to "Old Glory" through ceremonies and by treating the flag with its due respect.
As we come into fourth of July weekend and our celebration of independence, we also celebrate those Girl Scouts who this year, did what it takes to Go Gold!
As a member of Papillion-La Vista High School's Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (NJROTC), Gold Award recipient Emily Nichols has an even greater appreciation of the American flag and all that it represents. She chose to honor our most precious national symbol through her Gold Award project, "Flag Etiquette for the Future."
Emily's project addressed the concern that there is a lack of information and education around the American flag and proper flag etiquette. Emily wanted to share her knowledge with younger children in her community, so she prepared a presentation that included a brief history of the flag and its symbolism, information on how to treat and handle the flag and ideas for ceremonial activities during with the flag can be used.
To ensure the sustainability of her project, Emily created a Prezi Presentation that can be accessed by anyone who would like to learn more. The NJROTC at Emily's high school has also committed to keeping her project "flying high" by facilitating presentations on flag etiquette to area elementary schools.
Emily is the daughter of Jeff and Jenny Nichols. Her troop advisor was Jenny Nichols and her project advisor was Mike Vinkavich.
Earning the Gold Award is an especially smart move for girls like Emily who are interested in entering the Armed Services. Did you know that girls who earn Gold automatically move up a rank in the military in recognition of their achievement? Now there's another reason to Go Gold!
For more information and to get started, visit the Gold Award pages on our website.

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga women's basketball coach Wes Moore is taking on the same position at East Carolina University.
Officlals at ECU made the announcement at a 4 p.m. press conference
GREENVILLE, N.C. – Wes Moore, who led the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to an unprecedented 11-straight Southern Conference regular season championships as well as eight NCAA Tournament berths in the last 12 campaigns, has been named the 10th head coach of the East Carolina University women's basketball program, according to an announcement by director of athletics Terry Holland Monday.
Moore directly succeeds Sharon Baldwin-Tener, who accepted the head coaching position at Georgia State University earlier this month.
"Initially, I was interested in the position since my wife is from Jamesville, which is less than an hour away from Greenville," Moore stated. "Then, after visiting campus and meeting with several people, it was great to see their eagerness and excitement about Pirate athletics. Sharon did a fantastic job with this program and left it in great shape. It is extremely exciting to inherit a team that was so successful last season and has so much talent.
"It is hard to leave a program that you have built over 12 seasons, but the people at ECU have been so receptive to my ideas and the direction I want to steer this program. It also doesn't hurt that there will be familiar faces that were at Chattanooga with me before in Mack McCarthy, Jeff Lebo and Donnie Kirkpatrick."
The Executive Committee of the ECU Board of Trustees, acting for the full board, formally approved the appointment of Moore and the outline of his contract in a conference call meeting Monday afternoon. He will be introduced to the media at a 4:00 p.m. press conference Tuesday.
"Coach Moore's accomplishments as a women's basketball head coach are in one word, 'phenomenal'," Holland said. "His teams have been winners on the floor at every level - Division I, Division II and Division III - but more importantly his players have been winners in the classroom and in the community. There is only one other NCAA basketball coach in men's or women's Basketball, who can match Coach Moore's eleven-consecutive regular season conference championships and that is women's head coach Geno Auriemma at Connecticut. Coach Moore and his wife, Linda, will be tremendous assets to the ECU and greater Greenville communities."
With a 490-141 overall record, the best of any current Southern Conference head coach, Moore also ranks eighth among all NCAA women's basketball head coaches in winning percentage at .777. He became the first league coach to reach the 100-win plateau in conference games and currently holds a 193-31 record in SoCon play. Additionally, Chattanooga has not lost consecutive conference contests since the 2001-02 season. Moore will leave UTC as the winningest coach in Lady Mocs history with a 12-year record of 290-85.
Moore's 50- and 100-win milestones at Chattanooga happened faster than any other Lady Mocs coach. He reached victory No. 100 in just 140 games when Chattanooga topped College of Charleston 85-75 Feb. 3, 2003. He won No. 50 in his 75th game, a 78-60 victory over Davidson Jan. 20, 2000.
Over the past 12 seasons, the Lady Mocs have had eight Southern Conference Players-of-the-Year, seven league tournament MVPs, 28 all-conference selections and 28 all-tournament honorees. Last season, senior forward Shanara Hollenquest was named the league's player-of-the-year for the second-straight campaign. Moore has also been named Southern Conference Coach-of-the-Year five times in the past 12 seasons.
Two-time SoCon Player-of-the-Year Alex Anderson was drafted by the WNBA in 2008 as the 39th pick of the San Antonio Silver Stars. Teammate Laura Hall, an all-conference athlete, was also invited by the league's Connecticut Sun to participate in camp tryouts.
During Moore's tenure, Chattanooga continually ranked among the nation's leaders in average home attendance. All of the Lady Mocs' top 20 attended games have occurred with him at the helm, including two from the 2005-06 campaign. The largest crowd to watch the Lady Mocs filed into Mackenzie Arena when Tennessee came to town and 10,051 fans nearly filled the venue to capacity. That currently ranks as the 11th-largest crowd to ever watch a Chattanooga men's or women's basketball home game. The two NCAA Tournament games UTC hosted in 2004 averaged nearly 7,000 fans each contest.
Chattanooga held the nation's longest winning streak three times under Moore's watch. During the 2003-04 campaign, the Lady Mocs compiled a school-record 27-game win streak that began xxxxx and included a NCAA Tournament upset win over seventh-seeded Rutgers. In 2005-06, Chattanooga nearly matched that feat with 26-straight wins - picking up victories over Auburn, UAB, Middle Tennessee and Stephen F. Austin along the way. Two seasons ago, the Lady Mocs kicked off their run to the NCAA Tournament with a win over Alabama before running past Weber State and Miami (Ohio) in the UTSA New Year's Classic and producing an undefeated Southern Conference ledger (18-0).
Over the past seven years, Chattanooga has made waves on the national front by receiving votes in two national polls. In the 2005-06 campaign, the Lady Mocs climbed as high as 26th in the USA Today/ESPN Top 25 Coaches Poll and 30th in the Associated Press Poll.
The Lady Mocs hold 11 Southern Conference records, including the top seven spots in single-season wins, the top four for 3-pointers made in a game and the top seven for three-point field goals converted in a season. His 1998-99 squad finished sixth in the country, averaging seven three-point field goals per game while making a then school-record 188 three-point shots.
Moore, the third women's basketball coach in the program's 32-year history, was named the Lady Mocs' leader April 30, 1998, and with little preparation time before the season, guided Chattanooga to a 10-17 record and a tie for seventh-place in the conference standings.
Before taking his first Division I head-coaching job at UTC, Moore had great success owning a 200-56 record and making seven national tournament appearances in nine years as a head coach at the Division II and III levels.
Moore arrived in Chattanooga from Francis Marion University, where he guided the Patriots to a 69-20 overall mark in three years. In his final season, FMU went 30-3, advanced to the Division II Final Four and was ranked fifth in the final 1997-98 USA Today/WBCA Top 25 poll. That FMU squad also captured the Peach Belt Athletic Conference and South Atlantic Region tournament championships.
In his first year at Francis Marion, Moore took a Patriot squad that was 11-15 the season before and led it to an 18-9 record and a second-place showing during the conference regular season. He was named Peach Belt Athletic Conference Coach-of-the-Year for his efforts. The following season (1996-97), he guided FMU to a 21-8 record and another second-place finish in the Peach Belt. He also guided the Patriots to their first-ever NCAA Division II national tournament appearance.
Student-athletes recruited by Moore captured two Peach Belt Athletic Conference Freshman-of-the-Year accolades, garnered five all-conference spots and received one Player-of-the-Year Award.
Prior to his time at Francis Marion, Moore served as an assistant coach at North Carolina State for two years under the late Kay Yow - an East Carolina alumna. During that time, the Wolfpack earned a record of 34-24 and made an appearance in the Sweet 16.
Before his two seasons at N.C. State, Moore turned in a six-year stint as head coach at Maryville College in Maryville, Tenn. There, he won 78 percent of his games (131-36) and took the Lady Scots to five NCAA Division III national tournaments, including the Division III Sweet 16. In his first campaign at Maryville, Moore took a program that was 3-47 the two previous years and tied the then-school record for wins in a single season with 15. He was named the Converse/WBCA District 5 Coach of the Year in 1990, 1992 and 1993. In 1993, he was one of eight finalists for National Coach-of-the-Year.
Moore also spent three seasons (1984-87) as a men's assistant coach at Johnson Bible College in Knoxville, Tenn. He has been a motivational and instructional speaker at various coaching clinics, banquets and basketball camps and was the director of the Kay Yow Basketball Camp at N.C. State in 1994.
Moore earned a B.S. degree in religion from Johnson Bible College and both B.S. and M.S. degrees in physical education from the University of Tennessee. As a point guard at JBC, Moore helped his team to one conference championship and a sixth-place finish at the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) National Tournament. During his playing career, he earned all-conference and all-tournament honors.
Moore is married to the former Linda Hardison of Jamesville, N.C.
Previous Story:
Greenville - University of Tennessee at Chattanooga women's basketball coach Wes Moore is set to take over the same position at East Carolina. Officlals at ECU have scheduled a 4pm press conference on Tuesday where it is expected Moore will be formally introduced.
According to sources, the deal is not yet finalized but Moore is expected to be the next women's basketball coach at ECU. An announcement could come Monday or Tuesday.
Moore has an outstanding record at UTC having led the Lady Mocs to 11 straight Southern Conference regular season titles. He's also posted 11 straight 20 win seasons. His overall record at UTC is 290-85.
There is a local connection for Moore much the same way there is one for new ECU men's head coach Jeff Lebo. Lebo's wife is from Williamston while Moore's wife Linda, is from Jamesville.
Moore was also an assistant under former NC State head coach and ECU graduate Kay Yow.
Moore would be taking over for Sharon Baldwin-Tener who left to take over the women's program at Georgia State. Baldwin-Tener led the Lady Pirates to the WNIT tournament and a 23-11 record this past season.
