Current trends affecting occupational therapy
Changing health and social needs of Canadians and health care delivery systems have influenced occupational therapy practice. Some of these trends include:
- an aging population.
- increased awareness of the needs of persons with disabilities.
- higher survival rates from accidents and injuries.
- increased emphasis on health promotion and prevention to keep health care costs down.
- higher incidence of mental health and family problems.
- changes in work conditions such as job stress and early retirement.
- a more informed public regarding health and health concerns.
Occupational therapy has expanded from traditional hospital settings to home and community care, where people can address their occupational concerns within the very context of their own environment. Occupational therapists may assume the role of clinical specialist, researcher, educator, administrator or consultant. The membership profile from the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists (CAOT) reveals an increase in the number of therapists working in private practice, research and management. Approximately 25% of CAOT members worked in private practice in 2000, a significant increase from 3% in 1990. Occupational therapists may also consult and advise government and industry in the areas of health policy, disability management and vocational rehabilitation; and act as consultants in assistive technology. The roles and responsibilities of the occupational therapist vary with the practice environment. The following list includes some emerging practice areas for occupational therapists.
Private practice
Working with clients of all ages, occupational therapists conduct both individual assessment and treatment, and group programs. They may provide consultation to industry, schools, government, communities and health facilities. Examples include: case management, return-to-work programs, hand therapy and splinting, stress management, caregiver education, wheelchair prescription, injury prevention, pre-employment functional capacity evaluations, play therapy and hand writing programs.
Home modifications
Occupational therapists consult with building industry professionals including contractors, architects and designers regarding home modifications for barrier free design. The demand for occupational therapy in barrier-free housing will increase as our population continues to age, and people need assistance in maintaining independence in their own homes.
Assistive technology
To ensure clients achieve optimal function at home, work or play, occupational therapists consult in seating and positioning, mobility, wheelchair prescription, computer technology, and environmental controls. The occupational therapist may educate potential users of the equipment, determine prerequisite skills, train the client and caregiver in technology, and evaluate the home, work or community environment for barrier-free access.
More and more occupational therapists are working closely with employers, employees and unions to prevent work-related injuries and to reduce on-the-job stress. Occupational therapists conduct ergonomic assessments, job analyses and functional capacity evaluations. They also recommend work site modifications and design return-to-work and disability management programs.
In addition to conducting research to ensure the cost-effectiveness of our services, occupational therapy researchers are involved in other exciting projects. Some examples include: identifying the factors which influence the personal and social well-being of children with disabilities and their families (CanChild Centre for Childhood Disability Research), and Auto 21 to improve vehicle safety for children and the elderly (Networks of Centres of Excellence).
Retail business
Occupational therapists consult in wheelchairs and other mobility equipment, bathroom safety devices, and activities of daily living (ADL) equipment.
School systems
Occupational therapy services for children with physical disabilities and/ or learning and attention problems may include conducting treatment programs, providing training for teachers and parents, or consulting on designing barrier-free classrooms and safer playground equipment.
Long-term care settings
Occupational therapists design and deliver activities for clients living in residential and nursing care settings to maintain, improve and prevent physical and/or mental health problems. Their role may include program development and evaluation; for example, a volunteer program, or providing in-service education for staff and caregivers.
Higher education programs
Occupational therapists teach occupational therapy or other health profession students in baccalaureate or post-baccalaureate programs, and occupational therapy/rehabilitation assistants in community college programs.

LOS ANGELES, California, April 27. OLYMPIC legends Mark Spitz and Janet Evans are two of 18 Olympians listed in a lawsuit against Samsung Corp. over alleged misuse of their names and images, according to a report by The Associate Press.
The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court over a Facebook app called the Samsung Olympic Genome Project, in which people can see how they are connected to various Olympians. The other swimmers listed in the lawsuit are Amanda Beard, Jessica Hardy, Dara Torres, Jason Lezak, Cullen Jones, Eric Shanteau, Caroline and Clark Burckle, Brooke Bennett, Kristy Kowal, Kim Vandenberg, Aaron Peirsol and Brad Schumacher.
Richard Foster, an attorney for the plaintiffs, said Samsung's procedures "consisted of sending an email to some of the plaintiffs, in which they were told of the Genome Project and advised that they would be a part of the project unless they 'opted out.'"
He said several of the athletes returned the opt-out letter saying they didn't want to participate, but were included anyway, while others deleted the email without reading it.
The athletes are looking for compensation for licensing fees and a percentage of gross sales from Samsung products since the date of the app's launch.

Rihanna poses makeup-free (and clothed!), is still stunning.
We'll keep this one short and sweet because, well, we're not sure we wanna spend all day talking about how gorg Rihanna looks without makeup (our jealousy issues are raging today). That said, we feel it is our civic duty as faithful members of the Rihanna Navy to bring this unique Rihanna photo to your attention.
After seeing a flood of stunning Rihanna photos surface over the past few months (both clothed and not clothed…OK fine, mostly not clothed), it's kind of refreshing to see the gal who was just named MTV News' "Rockstar Of The Year" rock with with no makeup (pun intended, obviously). And in a long, black, fully-covering-her-entire-body knit sweater to boot! (Maybe she finally gathered it was cold out?) Don't get us wrong — we're not complaining about our ever-growing collection of fully made-up, basically nake-o shots of Rihanna, it's just nice to see the natural side of her too. Which brings us to our final and most crucial point: Would you get a load of that bone structure!? #Cheekbones.

Aug. 23, 2011
(ERIN, WI) - Four players affiliated with Cal men's golf continued action Tuesday at the 111th U.S. Amateur Championship being played Aug. 22-28. Current men's golfers Michael Weaver and Max Homa were the top two Cal golfers on the leader board at the end of the day tied for 82nd place at the end of their two rounds of stroke play. The second and final round of stroke play was suspended due to darkness following a three-hour and 40-minute weather delay in the morning and is scheduled to conclude on Wednesday.
Weaver and Homa are still both hoping to qualify for match play, which will take the top 64 golfers at the end of stroke play. A total of 38 golfers have posted two-round totals better than the one-over par 36-hole score of 143 by both Weaver (68-75) and Homa (75-68). Another 43 golfers are currently ahead of the duo but still have golf to play.
Weaver started his day tied for 21st and only three shots off the lead but fell down the leader board after a three-over par 75 at Erin Hills that followed his two-under par 68 during Monday's opening round of Blue Mound Golf and Country Club.
Homa rebounded from an opening-day three-over par 75 at Erin Hills on Monday to shoot a two-under par 68 at Blue Mound on Tuesday.
Nick Thomas is third current Cal golfer playing in the event and is tied for 261st at nine-over par through 27 holes. Thomas shot a six-over par 76 at Blue Mound on Monday and was three-over through nine holes at Erin Hills on Tuesday.
Former Bear Ben An is also currently tied for 261st at nine-over par through 27 holes. An had a four-over par 74 at Blue Mound on Monday and was five-over through the first nine holes at Erin Hills on Tuesday.
An was the 2009 U.S. Amateur champion and a semifinalist at the 2010 event, while Homa was a quarterfinalist in 2010 before falling to An.
Thomas and An are scheduled to conclude stroke play on Wednesday, while Homa and Weaver must wait to see if they make the cut in the top 64 or qualify to participate in a playoff to determine spots in match play, which will also start Wednesday following the conclusion of stroke play at a time still to be determined.

Dog abandoned near Emirates Stadium had to have eye removed
12:54 29 November 2012
An abandoned dog found dangerously close to the train line near Emirates Stadium had to undergo surgery to remove one of his eyes.
The terrified Jack Russell terrier was spotted covered in dirt, grease and blood by a passer-by inches from the line beside the Arsenal ground in Holloway on November 14.
After being picked up by the dog warden, the terrier was taken to the Blue Cross animal hospital in Victoria for treatment, where staff named him Mr Bean.
Mark Bossley, Blue Cross chief vet, said: "His right eye was very badly damaged, which was the result of an old injury.
"It was lacerated, which would have been caused by a sharp object, perhaps a cat scratch or barbed wire, and his lens was also damaged beyond repair. The best thing for Mr Bean was to have surgery to remove his eye."
Mark added: "We'll never know what happened to Mr Bean but it's possible that whoever owned him couldn't afford to pay for the vet bills, so he was abandoned."
Mr Bean is just one of thousands of pets who end up abandoned and left to fend for themselves every year. Blue Cross has seen a 50 per cent increase in the number of stray and abandoned pets at its rehoming centres in the last four years.
Mr Bean, who is around six or seven years old, has now recovered from the surgery and is now at a Blue Cross rehoming centre waiting to find a loving home.
n If you think you could offer Mr Bean the new home he deserves, visit www.bluecross.org.uk to find out more

Parenting tips focused on raising happy kids. Implementing them will help your family have happier, healthier and more positive attitudes at home and at school.
Only three out of every ten Americans will make resolutions this New Year and only about half of those people will actually keep them. Maybe these numbers are so dismal because we make resolutions that are at times too difficult to keep. My goal this year is to make resolutions that help my kids grow in all areas of their lives. I want 2014 to be the year that my family has a healthy and positive attitude about school, friends, family and everything in between. Below are some ideas for resolutions that can help your family feel great this year!
1.) Step up the Communication.
Family life has become so hectic that sometimes a little family communication is all you need to calm things down. Pick one night per week to hold a family meeting. This can be done over dinner or a board game. Whatever you choose, be sure to make your meetings a priority. Use this time to discuss problems, good things that happened during the week or to make plans to improve something.
If your family cannot agree on a time, try a communication journal. Buy a special notebook for each child and use it to write private notes to her. Express to your child all of the things that you love about him. You can use the journal to tell her when her behavior needs improving and how it makes you feel. Be sure to keep these journals private. Your kids will have a means of communication for even the most difficult subjects.
2.) Get academics on track.
With the school year in full swing, you should have a pretty good idea of where your child's strengths and weaknesses are. It might be a good idea to send your child's teacher an email just to make sure that everything is ok. Find out in which academic areas your child is showing success and make a big deal about them at home. If there are areas of trouble, ask your child's teacher for ways to help at home. Extra reading time or math work might be needed to boost confidence. Remember to make any extra work fun. Start a family book club or challenge your kids to an online math game.
3.) Make time for friends.
With everything families have on their plates these days, scheduling play dates is the last thing on our minds. Some of my fondest memories from childhood involve endless hours riding my bike with the neighborhood kids. This year, I want to give my kids the opportunity to make those same memories. Try to free up at least one day per week to devote entirely to play dates. Resist the urge to over plan the experience. Kids benefit most from unstructured free time with peers.
4.) Re-evaluate your kids' extra-curricular activities.
Most parents are guilty of over scheduling activities. We want to expose our kids to everything the world has to offer. Being involved in sports and other after school activities have huge benefits for children, just make sure that they are not overdoing it. Make a list of all of the activities that your child participates in and have him prioritize each one. Get a clear picture of which activities are most important to your kids. If you are feeling overwhelmed, maybe you should consider giving up an activity that your child is not enjoying.
The same goes for sports teams. The American Academy of Pediatrics does not recommend organized sports until the age of six and doctors are seeing more injuries attributed to overuse. My pediatrician recommends one sport per season. The goal for kids should always be to develop a positive attitude towards physical fitness.
Whether you decide to make resolutions or not, I hope that 2014 is a year that brings you and your family health and happiness. We would love to know what resolutions you make with your family. Please share your ideas below.
Happy New Year!

It's a double blow for Florida's recreational fishermen; first the feds, now the state.
The number of red grouper that recreational fishermen will be able to keep from state waters has been reduced.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has adopted a rule reducing the bag limit from two fish a day to one. This matches a bag limit in federal waters, which begins nine nautical miles offshore.
Regulators say grouper are being over fished far beyond the quota for recreational fishermen.

PESWiki.com -- Pure Energy Systems Wiki: Finding and Facilitating the Best Exotic Free Energy Technologies
Directory:Bob Kostoff Gravity Machine
From PESWiki
Bob Kostoff, a Canadian, has created what he calls 'The Gravity Powered Machine', a self-sustaining engine that costs less than half of a small wind turbine. The machine, which requires only a little juice to get it started, looks much like a teeter-totter but works like an overbalancing gravity wheel. It is using a series of sliding weights that, with the help of the earths gravitational pull, force the unit to continue spinning around in a circle.
Kostoff, who has built some five working prototyptes, says the engine provides as little as 10 foot-pounds of torque or as much as hundreds.
- Validation?
- This device has not been independently validated that we know of.

New Machine Specs:
- Length: approximately 8 feet
- Width: approximately 4 feet
- Height: approximately 6 feet
- Weight: 3850 lbs
- Torque: up to 3000 foot lb
And this was on the Overunity forum:
- "Bob's new demo unit is suppose to be the start of his initial production units. Apparently he was successful in getting a local company to start producing them. I'm hopeful that his website will present clear photos or video of its operation."

I will be posting on the web site the progress of the construction of the machine I am building at home. Hope to have it completed soon. It will generate around 1200 foot lb. of torque @ 40 to 50 rpm. I have a 20K Watt generator that it will power."

How it Works
On May 11, 2007 Bob Kostoff wrote: [1]
The machine is totaly independent. It requires no external power.
It works the same as the unbalanced wheel. The trick is to get the weight back to recycle it. There are 3 procedures I have used to do this.
The air cylinders I use as a shock absorber, similar to that in a car and it also stores a bit of energy that locks the 2 weights together almost at the bottom. A set of springs are also at the end of the rotating wheel to absorb the impact of the weights. It trips a leaver that activates a pin that acts as a pushrod to return the weights. When the weights are attached they only need to be returned 1/2 the distance then centrifical force takes over and then they start to accelerate to the other end. The closer to the half way point the 2 weights get the less energy in needs to move it. Once the weights are past the balance point they accelerate and generate many times their weight which creates the the energy needed. The faster rotation the larger the force. Without the springs and shock absorber it would destroy itself.
Hope this will help, and I am glad to share it with you.
<====== Weight--------------------Weight - weight this end () <====== Weight--------------------Weight - balanced () <====== Weight--------------------Weight - weight accelerate ()
The working model will be totally enclosed.
There are no springs that are wound. I am loosening the disk brake that stops it when needed.
Older Machine
Quoting from http://www.newsourceofenergy.com/machine.html
First I have to loosen off the disk brake until it has a small amount of resistance, then give the machine a little push. As it starts to rotate and picks up speed I tighten the brake just enough to control the rotation speed.
This is normally handled by a governor on the newer machines.
The machine must rotate at a pacific speed to keep the generator constant.
To stop the machine I just tighten the crank on the disk brake assembly and it works the same way as the disk brakes work on a car.
Newer Machine Specs.
Quoting from http://www.newsourceofenergy.com/machine.html
Length: approximately 8 feet
Width: approximately 4 feet
Height: approximately 6 feet
weight: 450 lbs
Torque: over 100 foot lbs and up
And quoting from http://www.newsourceofenergy.com/index.html
Each unit is totally enclosed for safely protection against moving parts.
This new engine is the product of years of research, frustration and perseverance.
Kostoff speculates that the system could generate the power needed for electrolysis, to produce hydrogen to power a vehicle.
Despite six months of looking, no one reviewing this technology has yet found a patent number that corresponds to this invention.
One person questions the claim to a patent due to its closeness to the disign at http://www.fuellesspower.com/6_Gravity2.htm it is called energy converter. here are the links http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2009/0051169.html http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20090051169
This device has not been independently validated that we know of.

- Man turning gravity into power - Bob Kostoff created 'The Gravity Powered Machine', a self-sustaining engine that costs less than half of a small wind turbine. The machine works much like a teeter-totter, using a series of sliding weights that, with the help of the earths gravitational pull, force the unit to continue spinning around in a circle.

Tax Talk,
I exercised and sold my stock options in February of this year,
but did not pay estimated taxes on the gain till September. I'd
like to understand what fines and penalties I'll have to pay. We
did not meet the 90-percent criteria for Q1, and I'm pretty sure
that we also did not meet the 110 percent as well. Aside from the
stock gain in the first quarter, income for the rest of calendar
2006 is not lumpy, and we would meet both the 90- and 110-percent
criteria for the year, just not for Q1. We are able to do this with
the interest and real estate taxes deduction from a vacation property
bought in the second half of 2006.
-- Quyen
Estimated tax is the method used to pay tax on income that is not
subject to withholding. If you do not pay enough tax through the
year by withholding or making estimated tax payments, you may be
charged a penalty. Also, if you do not pay enough by the due date
of each estimated payment, you may be charged a penalty, even if
you have a refund when you file your tax return. To avoid the penalty,
you can rely on two tests, as you pointed out.
Generally, you will not have to pay a penalty for
2006 if any of several situations apply.
Estimated tax payments are due by the 15th day of
April, June, September and January (of the next year). Withholding
is considered paid one quarter before the due dates of the installments.
Your income, deductions and tax are also assumed to occur evenly
throughout the year.
If your income is uneven throughout the year (lumpy,
as you say) you can use the annualized income installment method
to avoid the penalty. This would help out a person who had a large
gain (and hence tax) in a later installment period that did not
make payments in earlier periods. Since you did not pay until September,
and the installment for the tax on the stock options would have
been due in April, and if not then, it should have been paid in
June, this method will not reduce your estimated tax penalty.
Although it's termed "estimated tax penalty,"
it is really an interest charge. The interest rate is between 7
percent and 8 percent for 2006. If you failed to pay $10,000 in
estimated tax for 2006, you could expect that your penalty would
be between $350 and $400 for the year. The penalty will actually
work out to a little more than half the interest rate applied to
the underpayment. Since you were only short for a couple of quarters,
expect to pay half of this half. See Publication 505 for more information
on estimated taxes.
To ask a question on Tax Talk, go to the "Ask
the Experts" page and select "taxes" as the topic.

When a person has two or more unprovoked seizures, they have epilepsy. An estimated 2.4 million Americans have active epilepsy, with up to 200,000 new cases diagnosed in the United States each year. Approximately 1 in 26 people will develop epilepsy at some point in their lives, and the onset of epilepsy is highest in children and older adults. Epilepsy impacts 65 million people worldwide and is a spectrum that spans more than 40 syndromes. Despite all available treatments, 30 to 40 percent of people with epilepsy continue to experience uncontrolled seizures. In two-thirds of patients diagnosed with epilepsy, the cause is unknown.
Epilepsy affects more people than multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and Parkinson's combined – yet receives fewer federal dollars per patient than each of these. According to advocate group Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy, epilepsy costs the United States approximately $15.5 billion each year. The indirect costs associated with uncontrolled seizures are seven times higher than that of the average for all chronic diseases.
To view facts and common questions about epilepsy presented by the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, click here.
Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy, or SUDEP, is one of the many risks that accompanies a life with epilepsy. According to the National Institutes of Health, SUDEP is the most common epilepsy-related cause of death. The DDF's approach to making progress against SUDEP is multi-pronged:

"Retail sales" ranked fourth on this year's list of the top consumer complaints compiled by the Consumer Federation of America. That's good news for Walmart.
The CFA, a consortium of 300 nonprofit consumer groups, and another organization called the North American Consumer Protection Investigators (NACPI) obtained complaint data from 38 agencies nationwide to identify the most common, fastest-growing and worst problem. The category of retail sales ranked fourth, the same as the prior year, and includes issues such as false advertising and other deceptive practices, defective merchandise, problems with rebates, coupons, gift cards and gift certificates and failure to deliver. Topping the list once again were cars, credit and home repair.
"The information compiled in the survey helps us as consumer protection agencies follow trends in consumer fraud, educate the public, and share information with each other, which will ultimately assist us in our investigations against fraud," said Tonya Hetzler, Interim President of NACPI.
After the category of retail sales, which presumably isn't an issue at Walmart because of its everyday low price strategy, were utilities, services, Internet sales, landlord/tenant issues, fraud, real estate, household goods and home solicitations.

His advice not worth a dime. "Crooke didn't specify what steps he would take to get its stock price to rise." Answer is easy, try buying your first Isis share out of your pocket in 24 years. Next, bring forth the first viable successful antisense drug since 1984. Hello. What a joke ! : ) Gilead & Novartis dumped Isis like a bad habit. The list is long, check the history. : ( Whoops, another lawsuit just added to the list. Duh, I wonder why? Answer, : You can make more money by suing then you can by buying the stock. Remember, Crooke did not want to do these partner deals in 1998, he stated, " There's no money in them." Ouch ! Now, that's the only way he can keep tooting his horn, bringing in the newbies and cashing out at the same time. Sad. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
"Suddenly" he found he could not make the drugs successful. End of story for the pumpers.
i agree with darkster . Dark has caught the insiders left and right for as long as i can remember. A new piece of flesh comes along to be educated again. I see your panic buttsterbs.
Suddenly, the money was there. He took the deals. What deals have you done with your "thousands of cases" you have been *involved* in? You cannot sell a pack of gum on an NY street corner, much less, ice water in he**. Antisense worms in mammals, even cold ones like you. Its working right now to keep you alive, down regulating your stupidity. You pick on Crooke for not doing deals because there was no money in them, then for doing the deals when there was money in them. What kind of #$%$ curses both ends? The deals, Glaxo, Biogen, Sanofi etc... these are SUBSTANTIAL with the largest kind of drug companies on the planet.
The net sum of your obvious rage is, the founder of the company has not bought shares with his own money. I suspect there are a couple million examples out there, such as Jobs, Gates, etc... who did not put money in after initial financing at the VC stage. You want VC Stage skin in the game, he has his whole head in already. Case in point, its being sued along with the rest of his body, for saving 130+ patients from certain death.
For all your experience, if you had severe FH and your cholesterol was soaring, YOU WOULD BE TAKING KYNAMRO and you refuse to fess up to that point.
You have narrowed your arguments, Counselor. You negated the very reason Crooke took the deals, which you claim, he unconditionally promised never to take. He did set a condition. "the money" had to be in it. 2.5 BILLION later, 2.5 times ISIS market cap, he has 3 deals done. He can do hundreds more. HUNDREDS. What part do you not understand? You are painting yourself into a corner, wherein, everyone can see you are an enraged hater. Nothing more. Go hate Mcd for putting evil pink goo in their boogers. Leave real researchers alone.

7 Ways to Keep Focused on a Lifelong Journey
Today, I truly start my experience as a practitioner of Classical Chinese Medicine. It's my first shift at Pettygrove Classical Chinese Medicine clinic in Portland. I have the honor of learning from David Berkshire, LAc – a local practitioner who specializes in a variation of Worsley style five element acupuncture. I have been excited about this for a long time. At the same time, I've been anxious about my abilities and worried that I'll do something horribly wrong!
Also, as I enter Year 4 of this medical training, I am beginning to feel a little fatigued.
My situation is familiar to many of you. Anything worth doing takes time. This medicine is complex and worth working on for a while. Nonetheless, I have a family and a life and hopes and aspirations and sometimes I'd like to just get on with it. 🙂 Regardless of your profession or stage in life, I think you can appreciate this sentiment and the situation that inspired it. Consider this got me thinking about how to keep energized when the road before one is long and potentially bumpy. I figured I'd share my thoughts with you. Please share your reactions and your own words of wisdom in the comments.
1. Inspiring literature : One of the easiest ways I have found to stay focused is to maintain a small library of books that easily inspire me. For my part, I choose writing that is closely related to Classical Chinese Medicine. A partial list of my "inspiration library" reveals:
- Dao De Jing(Star Version)
- Huangdi Neijing
- Learning to be a Sage
- Notes from classes taught by Arnaud Versluys, Heiner Fruehauf and others
- The Web of Life
- Wholeness of Nature
2. Old journals/writing : I'm not super reliable in my journal writing, but it is consistent enough that I can read back through and get a sense for where I was in the recent and distant past. It is helpful for two reasons. First, I can see how far I've come and become energized by my progress. Second, I can sample my youthful (!) enthusiasm and use that to propel me through.
3. Go back to the source : Everyone came to their profession/topic for a different reason. When I get a little distant from my passion, I just think back to what motivated me in the first place. For me, the essence is twofold. First, I love the Classical Chinese way of thinking about human beings and the natural environment we live in. Also, a deep desire to be part of a profession that demands of me total integrity and closeness to nature has always been part of my driving force. To revisit these, I need to simply sit in a beautiful place (Portland abounds with them) and consider those things. I might spend 20 minutes considering the interplay of Yin and Yang in everything around me. Alternatively, I might vision the kind of practitioner I see myself being.
4. Talk to people further along on the path : Talking to experienced Chinese medicine physicians goes a long way in keeping me energized. When I am privileged to hear someone like Heiner Fruehauf talk about his method of treating patients and the beauty of those interactions, I feel renewed. When I make time to talk with my friend Abdallah B. Stickley about his prolific and inspired practice, I am buoyed. It's also been helpful shadowing with some of the recently graduated interns during their rotations – watching the effortless way they interact with patients and wield the needles helps calm my fears and excite me about my future.
5. Talk to people further back on the path : Nothing gets me going quicker than talking to folks new to the field of Classical Chinese Medicine. It's one of the reasons I love being associated with an institution of higher education. Every year, new students come in – full of enthusiasm and wonder. It lightens the heart and makes me forget my worries about my future or my irritation with the present. At NCNM, we have a mentoring program where older students take on the responsibility for helping out new students. That has certainly been a good experience.
6. Brainstorming : Sometimes none of the above seems to work. So, I start mindmapping. I'll put my central concern or question in the center of the page and just start working from there. For instance, I might put the question, "Why become a physician?" in the center of my page. From there I let the ideas flow. "To have the privilege of accompanying fellow human beings on their path through life," "To alleviate suffering in those who need it," "To get paid to consciously work with my own energy," and the list goes on. From there I often get sparked to think of my chosen profession in new ways. In fact, many of my blog articles come from brainstorming sessions like that one.
7. Spiritual practice : Certainly there is nothing better to align me with my purpose as a student of Classical Chinese Medicine than my spiritual practice. Whatever tradition (or no-tradition) you come from, simply dwelling in that place of spirit can deeply nourish every part of your life. I find that when I am doing meditation, prayer, Qigong and reading sacred texts, peacefulness about my path comes without my forcing it. If I sat down to meditate with worries on my mind or heaviness in my heart, I scarcely remember it when I stand back up.

I doubt they go on the web. Scientologists are supposed to have their access to outside information restricted, so they won't start thinking for themselves.
Oh yeah…tv really helps you think for yourself. Moron. Go Tom…I won't let my future kids watch tv either.

It is amazing how many recipes you can find on the internet. My mother would be astonished at the speed of looking them up on the internet. Our grandmothers cherished their books and hand written "recipes" from special friends. Often brides moving West were given favorite recipes from friends or a cherished cookbook.
Norma enjoyed exchanging recipes during the winters they spent in Arizona with all the other "snow birds" where they camped. When she came home she would get out the recipes to fix for our dinner and tell me which dear friend she had gotten this one or that one from. It reminded her of the dinners they had shared and maybe some interesting facts of the time they spent together.

I was looking forward so much to yesterday's ride. I had all of last week off as an unpaid furlough and planned on riding and riding and riding. Last weekend was taken up prepping the house and food for a large party that my wife planned before she got sick, so the first ride I got in was Tuesday. Then came the rains, cold heavy rains, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, finally ending early Saturday morning, so I was more than ready to ride.
Off I go..........this is good, I feel strong, the bike is operating perfectly............yeeesssss this is going great.
Why is the trail so crowded, it's worse than one of the ped holidays like Mothers Day. What are all those little "mail boxes" along side the trail? It's even more crowded. I'm being my usual polite self, "Good Morning" "I'll be passing on your left side" etc. It turns out that this is some sort of Parks and Rec outing or nature walk. Well, that's fine, this is a multi use trail and all that. After four miles I'm off onto an unpopulated side trail. That's more like it. It's gravel and traprock and mud and hills but there are no people so this is getting to be fun again. So much fun that I just kept going and going and going (That character is after all a Rabbit). On the way back I had to do those four miles again..........OMG, it was worse. Little kids on bikes with training wheels (on dirt) more than a mile from their car, crying and screaming......bikes laying in the middle of the 5 foot wide trail. On several occasions, I had to come to a complete stop and lean on my handlebars and wait while the adults herded the kids into some sort of motionless order untill I could pass. Sigh.
By the way, did I mention that about halfway through the ride I was on asphault for about 2 miles. Do I need to mention that a young girl pulled out of a bank driveway right in front of me as I screamed "Nnnnooooo".
Well, all of this was going to be a rant. But it's not going to end like one. Why? Because the sky was blue, the sun was warm and I was out on my bike. It was a good 27 miles and it took over 3 hours, but it was a bike ride with lots of challenges and skills to learn. Life is good.
Oh, by the way, to the one lady out there that I snapped at..........I really don't eat children..:D

After launching an online passbook facility for subscribers, the Employees Provident Fund Organisation is now planning to roll out a number portability system that will make the Aadhaar card number a permanent EPF account number for an employee throughout his career.
Besides curbing manipulation by unscrupulous companies, the move will eliminate the hassle of transferring funds to a new account number every time a person switches jobs and help accumulate EPF contributions for a longer time. A lot of manipulation has happened with companies not depositing money towards the PF contribution of their casual workers. The e-passbook scheme is a major reform as it brings transparency. The second step of reform will be making one account number permanentit will remain same even if an employee changes jobs, central provident fund commissioner RC Mishra told reporters.
It will be like the one in New Pension Scheme, he said. At present, EPF has close to 12 crore accounts of which 4.5 crore are operative, he said. This means many workers have neither transferred their funds from previous accounts to new accounts, nor made withdrawal claims.
Number portability is all the more necessary for contract workers, many of whom are not enrolled in the EPF due to the migratory nature of their jobs, Mishra said. For example, there are 4-5 crore construction workers not getting this (EPF) benefit.
At the end of March 2011, EPFO was managing a corpus of R4.66 lakh crore under three schemesemployees provident fund (EPF), employees pension scheme (EPS) and employees deposit-linked insurance (EDLI)for 6.16 crore subscribers. Despite enjoying a virtual monopoly, EPFO is now facing competition as investors are lured by higher returns offered by the New Pension System, banks and even post office schemes.
NPS is being increasingly preferred by corporates and new generation workers for its portability and tax benefits. Portability has helped employees to switch jobs and keep their retirement contributions intact while cutting down the compliance cost for companies.
The EPFO has been debating on the unique account number for quite some time. At one time, it wanted to make the Permanent Account Number (PAN) issued by the finance ministry as the unique number. But since many of the casual workers havent obtained PAN as their income was either lower or dwindling, Mishra said EPFO is now considering Aadhaar as the permanent EPF number.

Perhaps Essenza di Zegna
I'm looking for a new aquatic scent. I really liked Bleu but it didnt last very long on my skin. My girl liked it though. I dont really wanna buy it again if I'm honest. I'd like to continue to explore other scents. I have blvgari aqua and curve and di gio already so I dont want any of those. Lead me towards some other great aqua/spicy colognes please.
PS. Blue smells good to me..it does. But I feel when Curve gets more compliments at 20 a bottle then bleu on me..then Bleu is probably not my scent.
Perhaps Essenza di Zegna
I get 10+ hours longevity with Bleu. Unfortunately I dont like it much. IMO similiar grapefruit/woody vibe has Guerlain Homme Intense.
"Christian Dior / You wasted your life
On aroma and clothes / Fabric and dyes." Christian Dior - Morrissey
Sel Marin by Heeley - One is initially treated to a brisk duet of citrus from tart and tangy lemon as well as the fresh sweetness of bergamot. This evanescent opening becomes submerged in the awaiting heart. Here, in the middle, posidonia, with its sea-grass, vegetal highlight and oceanic spiciness, joins with a sprinkling of saltiness to furnish a delightful, seashore apparition. White musk interplays with this briny melange to mimic saltwater drying on the skin. Transitioning to the waiting base, earthy and salty vetiver, birch, with its wintergreen and somewhat medicinal aspects, as well as virginia cedar, with its deep woodiness with a hint of petrol, commingle to create the sensation of algaed, pier pilings exposed to air. A comforting drydown ensues. This singular composition has good, radiating projection, as well as good longevity, 7-9 hours.
I find it hard to find anything quite similar to Bleu, but you should try Bvlgari Man and Polo Blue.
In fact I would think a mix of these two would create something pretty close to a clone of Bleu

YSL L'homme Libre and Biother Homme Force are rather similar to Bleu.
Agreed. To my nose YSL L'Homme Libre is very similar to Bleu. And L'Homme Libre has a great lasting power.

Saginaw, Mich. (WZZM) NBA legend Magic Johnson was in Michigan Tuesday night for a charity event in Mid-Michigan.
It was an opportunity for the media to ask Johnson about the penalties handed down Tuesday by the NBA against LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling. The NBA banned Sterling from the organization for life, and gave him a $2.5 million fine.
Like Many people, Magic Johnson uses Twitter to communicate through tweets. While in Saginaw he demanded new ownership for the Los Angeles Clippers. "We hope the Clipper's get a new owner whoever that's going to be."
Even though he's banned from the NBA for life, Donald Sterling still owns the Clippers unless Three-fourths of the team owners vote to force a sale. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver thinks that's what should happen. "I will urge the board of governors to force the sale of the team."
"I'm just happy commissioner Adam Silver came down hard and showed we can't let people get away with this even if you are a owner," said Johnson. "It's a great day. It's a great day for the United States, a great day for the NBA, a great day for all races especially Africa Americans and Latinos he was speaking out against.
Magic Johnson was in Saginaw Tuesday night to help raise money for the Saginaw Promise The program helps raise money so students in the Saginaw School System can afford a higher education.

Top apparel exporter, one of the four highest-rated companies in Sri
Lanka's first 'Report Card' on accountability
CEO Brandix Apparels Ashroff Omar
Brandix Lanka Limited, Sri Lanka's iconic apparel solutions company,
has been accorded a Platinum rating in the country's first 'Report Card'
on Corporate Accountability.
The globally-respected apparel exporter is one of four corporate
entities to score more than the 90 per cent required for Platinum status
in this inaugural benchmarking exercise undertaken by STING Consultants
and presented by Lanka Monthly Digest (LMD), Sri Lanka's leading
business magazine.
Defining Corporate Accountability as 'the moral and legal obligations
of companies to be accountable for their actions to all stakeholders,'
the assessment covered awareness of the approach to and a preparedness
to accept stakeholder responsibilities in seven areas: corporate values,
identifying risks and opportunities, policy coverage, stakeholder
engagement, management and measurement, workplace practices and public
In their remarks on Brandix the promoters of the Corporate
Accountability Rating said, "The unrelenting international competition
faced by Brandix in the apparel sector, and its dependence on a large
workforce, has led it to focus on accountability with a human face.
This is why it places great emphasis on social aspects such as gender
equality, training, human rights, strong links with local communities
and suppliers, and workplace quality. And of course, it continues to be
a globally recognised, sustainable business entity."
Among the key areas of focus for Brandix in the sphere of corporate
accountability are its internationally-recognised dedication to
eco-friendly manufacture and its consistent commitment to CSR projects
aimed at facilitating access to safe water for needy rural communities.
The bulk of the Group's CSR initiatives are conducted under the theme
'Water is Life.' Over the past two years, Brandix has completed hundreds
of micro water supply projects in Sri Lanka and donated to the
government a Water Research and Training Centre purpose-built and
equipped at a cost of Rs 25 million.
Brandix is also at the forefront nationally and globally in efforts
to adopt eco-friendly manufacturing. In April 2008, one of the Group's
manufacturing plants became the first Platinum rated Green Factory in
the world under the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
of the US Green Building Council (USGBC).

Tomlinson's return applies some salve to healing wounds
"That was the emotional side of things when changes were happening," Tomlinson said of the harsher tone of earlier times. "Now, we're all in a better place. We all have moved on from that time. Change is hard. And so this is not only closure (for) Junior, but it's kind of like bringing me back here."
From all appearances, it was more of a cameo than a homecoming. Though Tomlinson still owns a palatial home in Poway, it sits empty awaiting a buyer. Though the Chargers might have use for a third-down back with LT's receiving skills, General Manager A.J. Smith says he "moved on years ago."
For his part, Tomlinson is almost resigned to retirement. Though he says he's "as healthy as I was when I was here," he hastens to add: "It would have to take unbelievable circumstances (to play again)."
If he is finished with pro football, Tomlinson will retire with 13,684 yards — fifth best in NFL history — and his 162 career touchdowns rank third behind Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith.
"He was one of the greatest players in the history of our franchise, as Junior was," Chargers President Dean Spanos said. "They carried our franchise during their period of time. How do you forget that?"
You can't. Nor do you wish you could.

The Honeywell 50250-S is best used in small spaces, and does a good job of removing dust and other allergens from the air. The biggest complaint surrounding this unit is that it's noisy, noticeable even at low speeds. A near identical version, the Honeywell 50250-N, is said to have permanent filters, but that's more marketing than reality as its filters, too, need to be replaced. That matters little as the filters in both models last a long time and are relatively cheap.
Good for small rooms. The Honeywell 50250-S is best used in small rooms as it's not powerful enough to clean rooms with larger capacity. The Honeywell air purifier takes in air from all sides of its cylindrical design, expelling clean air out the top, but it doesn't pull as much air through its HEPA filter as more expensive models, such as the Blueair 503, experts say. Still, notes Ed Sherbenou of Air-Purifier-Power.com, this air cleaner offers "a lot of power for the money." Testers from one professional consumer testing organization say the Honeywell 50250 is excellent at removing dust, pollen and cigarette smoke at its high setting, and also does a good job at the low setting.
Easy use with filter indicator lights. Filter indicator lights let users know when it's time to change out -- or at least vacuum -- the filter for maximum performance. The unit itself is fairly large, according to Sherbenou, and it needs to sit a minimum of three feet away from a wall. Therefore, it will take up some available space in the room. It's lightweight (just 20 pounds) and has a carrying handle at the top for easy transfer from room to room. Replacement filters are easy to find online or in stores.
Noticeable noise on low, quite loud on high. Sherbenou praises the Honeywell's cleaning power, but says he rarely will use it in his bedroom because of the noise. One professional testing organization gives the Honeywell 50250 a rating of Poor for its noise level at the highest fan speed setting, and a slightly better rating of Good for noise at the lower speed settings.
Affordable filters, low up-front cost. The Honeywell's long-lasting HEPA filter should be vacuumed twice a year, but Sherbenou says it will eventually have to be replaced. The Honeywell also uses an odor-reducing carbon prefilter (Est. $15) that should be replaced every three months. It's not Energy Star qualified, but power draw isn't terrible -- about as much as two standard light bulbs, Sherbenou says.

Honeywell 50250-S Review
1. ConsumerReports.org
The Honeywell 50250 (identical to the 50250-S) is one of the 28 room air purifiers tested by ConsumerReports.org. By injecting allergens into a test room, then measuring particle removal on both high and low speeds, editors rate air purifiers for dust and smoke removal and noise level.
Review: Honeywell 50250 Air purifier, Editors of ConsumerReports.org, Not Dated
2. Air-Purifier-Power.com
Air-purifier expert Ed Sherbenou owns a Honeywell 50250, and it shows in this illustrated review. He says the 50250 is well sealed and has a big filter. "I have seen 18-wheelers with smaller air filters than this," he notes. But it's so loud that he doesn't use it in his bedroom.
Review: Honeywell 50250S Air Purifier Review, Ed Sherbenou, Not dated
3. Amazon.com
More than 1,650 owners post comments at Amazon.com about the Honeywell 50250-S. Most users are very satisfied, praising the air purifier's effectiveness at getting rid of odors -- but again, there are complaints about noise. It's currently the #1 Best Seller in Home Charcoal Air Purifiers and earns a score of 4.2 stars.

|Frank Morgan, MAA Online
|Solution to the challenge: Justin Smith calls 5939 a "right" prime because it remains prime after dropping any number of digits from the right: 5939, 593, 59, and 5 are all prime. How many right primes are there less than 1000? Is there a largest right prime? Joseph DeVincentis, Jim Wiechmann, Chuck Diminnie, Eric Brahinsky, and Luke Gustafson find by exhaustive search that there are 27 right primes under 1000 and 83 right primes in all, the largest of which is 73,939,133. New challenge: On a beach in Oregon, at a certain moment, the very last bit of the Sun disappears below the horizon. The question is: Can I make that last bit of Sun reappear by jumping up quickly to my full height, or perhaps by very quickly running up the hill behind me, to increase the elevation of my point of view?

Georgia in Hawaii
written by Amy Novesky
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt | ISBN 9780152054205
Hardback – 40 pages
Member's price: $22.50
Usually ships within 2–11 business days.
Georgia O'Keeffe's Hawaiian tour celebrates natural beauty and powerful artistic convictions. Georgia O'Keeffe was famous for painting exactly what she wanted, whether flowers or skulls. Who would ever dare to tell her what to paint? The Hawaiian Pineapple Company tried. Luckily for them, Georgia fell in love with Hawaii. There she painted the beloved green islands, vibrant flowers, feathered fishhooks, and the blue, blue sea. But did she paint what the pineapple company wanted most of all? Amy Novesky's lyrical telling of this little-known story and Yuyi Morales's gorgeous paintings perfectly capture Georgia's strong artistic spirit. "The book includes an author's note, illustrator's note, bibliography, map of the islands, and endpapers that identify Georgia's favorite Hawaiian flowers."

text: Special Education Collaborative Teacher K-6/6-12 Special education teachers are professionals trained in helping students who may have physical, mental, or psychological disabilities. Federal and state laws mandate that every student with a disability, regardless of that disability's nature, is entitled to an adequate education. To become a special education teacher, teacher candidates must complete a degree program that prepares them to work with special-needs children. This includes classroom training, coursework and completing proper teacher certification. Completing a special education program provides teacher candidates with the skills and training they need to educate children with special needs, ranging from students with mild learning disabilities to those with severe mental and physical retardation. A degree in this field can open many opportunities for employment. Opportunities for employment for special education majors include but are not limited to work in school settings, employment in facilities for children with severe disabilities, and work in camps and enrichment programs.
