Pam Segars-Morris
Pam Segars-Morris is married to Greg Morris. She is blessed with a Son, Kelly Reaves and precious granddaughter, Gizele Grace or "Gi Gi" as she is called. Daughter Kari Morgan gave Pam two grandsons, Clay and Cade Morgan. Pam believes in the philosophy of God first, family and friends second and business as an important third place.
Pam grew up in the building and real estate business. Her father, D. W. Segars, began their company, SeBro Realty, in 1959. Pam actually typed her first contract, one finger at a time, when she was only eight years old. She was licensed to serve the public in 1986.
Encouraged by veteran REALTORS®, Pam became active in the Bessemer and Birmingham Associations of REALTORS®. Pam has held every local office, including serving as president on three occasions. She has chaired every local committee numerous times. Pam has taken that service to the Alabama and National Associations. There are many treasured memories during her career. Being honored with the coveted Robert Jemison Award made Pam speechless. We know that does not occur often. Being named an "Alabama Hero" by Governor Bob Riley, along with members from her Leadership Class of 2003, is among many memorable moments of her career.
Anyone who knows Pam knows she has a passion for Governmental Affairs. Inspired by a father who was a multi-decorated World War II Hero, Pam carries the torch of American patriotism. The incredible experience of meeting with President George W. Bush stills puts tears in her eyes and takes her breath away.
Pam's mother, LeNeta Chapman, instilled in Pam the ethic of, "Every place you go should be better upon your leaving because you were there," - even if that means picking up the toilet paper someone left on the floor.
Pam has made real estate her profession, but service to her family, friends, fellow REALTORS®, clients, customers and country are where her heart is.

The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place: The Mysterious Howling by Maryrose Wood
Miss Penelope Lumley is hired right out of school (Swanburne Academy for Poor Bright Females) to work as governess for Lord and Lady Ashton. She is looking forward to starting her job, but nobody will tell her about the children until she discovers them on her own—in the barn, howling like dogs! It's then she learns that she has been hired to "civilize" these kids, who have been raised by wolves (really, they howl, bark, and chase squirrels!).
The book is a cross between Jane Eyre and Lemony Snicket—with emphasis on the Snicket—and is, pardon me, a howl! Warning: nothing is neatly tied up—the book ends with a cliff-hanger.
More new chapter books!
More of Miss Susan's favorite books!

The Extraordinary Catalog of Peculiar Inventions
The Curious World of the Demoulin Brothers and Their Fraternal Lodge Prank Machines - from Human Centipedes and Revolving Goats to ElectricCarpets and SmokingCamels
- eBook - ePub eBook: $12.99
"This stuff is more than just fancy pranks. It's Americana. Never has nonsense been taken so seriously...This book is a fascinating, appetite- whetting glimpse for the, if you'll pardon the expression, uninitiated."
At the beginning of the twentieth century, 40 percent of American men belonged to a lodge, and they were hazing their newbies with cigar- smoking camels, spankers, and even fake guillotines. Nearly all their prank devices came from the same place: catalogs published by the DeMoulin Brothers Company from 1896 to 1930.
Julia Suits discovered one of these all-but-forgotten catalogs at a flea market. Its pages were full of bizarre hazing props: old-fashioned telephones that squirted water, bucking goats attached to tricycles, Victorian- looking furniture that sent electric shocks. These prank machines are the relics of mischief and daredevilry, produced for the country's original fraternity- hazing culture, and created by America's original high-tech geeks of the electric age.
The Extraordinary Catalog of Peculiar Inventions offers a peek into twentieth-century American culture that most people have never seen. At its core are hundreds of the most inventive DeMoulin prank machines, complete with their original, quirky descriptions and eccentric line art. Alongside the catalog pages are newspaper clippings, lodge trivia, quotes, and stories that show the true side of America's original hazing culture.
"This stuff is more than just fancy pranks. It's Americana. Never has nonsense been taken so seriously...This book is a fascinating, appetite-whetting glimpse for the, if you'll pardon the expression, uninitiated." -David Copperfield, from the Foreword

Look good but hurt!
Ok so these are a genius idea, can make you own CD covers in Jewel cases with pics of your friends or just pick out the albums with the best artwork. They look amazing on hte wall, the only issue is they fall down after 24 hours, and if you're like me and have put them in your bedroom they fall on your head at 4.30 AM, because the sticky has been used once it lost it's stick and they wont go back up. Luckily I didn't display the whole box so had enough velcro pads left to stick them back up but 12 hours later they were off. Not to mention the issue of the fact that they have now fallen down and I have holes in the paint on the wall. Disappointment!
I bought these for my boyfriend. I usually absoltely HATE buying for men, it is so difficult and such a chore. Then I came across these, and I didnt even have to debate them! I was a bit aprehensive that they would look plastic-ey or cheap, but they look ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! So easy to put up, move around, and display in funky ways! CDs are also easy to change or even open if you decide to listen to that particular CD. Also, seen as CDs appear to be slowly getting replaced by online downloads they look GREAT with all those older younger-years CDs in them!
people who made this product are pretty smart to be honest. they kind of knew that the sticky thing on the back that's supposed to hold up the CDs just WONT WORK. so they put in some holes in the back of the tiles so u can nail them up onto the wall. thats the only reason why this was good for me. i was considering a refund actually. but yep, its all good, theyre on my wall now, and ive just ordered a second box so i can virtually cover my whole wall with CDs. it is is worth it, but only if you have some spare nails and a hammer going.
Great Wall Art for Music Lovers
Once on the wall, these tiles look great. It is easy enough to move the CD's in and out to either play the CD or insert new ones. I bought some of these last year for my music loving daughter and have just purchased some more for her as she loves they way the CD's look on her wall (the tiles being hardly noticable between the CD's) and a music lovers collection is ever expanding!

Top Ten Pick Me Up Movies
In this week's Top Ten list I plan on letting you in on my personal Top Ten Films that pick me up when I'm feeling down, or sick. The topic came from non other than Dave from Screengeeks.com as I threw out suggestions for topics for today's Top Ten (not sure what to theme it around), so thanks to Dave you can all feel happier by checking out any of these films:
TEN – Death Proof (2007)
So this one is probably the most out of place pick, but I truely love this movie in ways you all just can't understand. With every line of dialogue that Kurt Russell says as Stuntman Mike (as well as all the other characters in this movie) just brings a smile to my face as it's fun, witty and just filled with QT goodness. The final chase scene (which lasts approximately 30 minutes) is the last time I was actually scared during a movie because I just felt fear for Zoe Bell since I couldn't understand how what I saw on the screen wasn't real.
NINE – Once (2006)
Glen Hansard plays a struggling musician who plays his songs in the local shopping plaza. He decides finally to try and make his name after meeting a young pianist, Marketa Irglova, and he wants to head off to London to become a star. The film takes us through those last few days in Dublin as he tries to put the record together and gets to know this girl more and more and fall in love. This movie makes me smile all the while due to it's honest nature about these two characters and their relationship as well some really great songs. Go check out the new Swell Season album people.
EIGHT – The Castle of Cagliostro (1979)
I don't think it's possible for me to make this list without bringing up a Miyazaki film. While this isn't my favourite of his it is one of the elite films from him that is a genuine joy to watch. It also helps that it's a Lupin film. Lupin, for me, defines what a real charasmatic thief should be. If you're a fan of films like Ocean's Eleven or The Brothers Bloom where you find yourself falling in love with the thief and not minding that he will get away with the loot in the end then this is the movie for you.
SEVEN – The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
There's something about a great romantic story that makes me all warm inside and happy. Jim Carrey and Kate Winslett star in a film about love and the lengths people will go to try and deal with the pain of love lost. Michel Gondry gives us a great film that will stay with you as you see some of the dazzling visual tricks that he plays with you as he takes you (literally) through our protagonist's mind.
SIX – Speed Racer (2008)
The Wachowski's give us their live-action remake of the popular 60s Japanese animated TV show about a world where cars go fast enough to put 6Gs of strain on their drivers and a guy is okey for dressing up with a massive X on his forehead. This movie is not a great movie, however it is one of those movies that makes me smile from ear to ear during every frame. I love all of the driving scenes (especially the cross country rally and when they get into the ice cave section). This movie is gorgeous and I love what the Wachowski's did with it. I don't care what you think of me, I love this movie and will defend it to my grave.
FIVE – Hot Fuzz (2007)
What??? You've never seen the genius that is Bad Boys and Point Break??? Well don't worry, just watch this action movie spoof that Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost made and you will get the gist of all of those movies that all of your friends pretend to like. This movie is completely ridiculous and for the correct reasons.
FOUR – The Princess Bride (1987)
The man in black has come to rescue the damsel in distress. It's a sweep you off your feat fantastical tale of Prince Charming and all those fairy tale type of stuff. I love this movie because (as most of the ones above) it never takes itself seriously and it just wants you to enjoy. Just remember, "My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
THREE – Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (2005)
When I think of completely quotable films I have to name Shane Black's Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang with Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer. It's a film about a mystery murder and someone seems to want to peg the murder on Harry. The narration alone is enough to get you into this movie. As it begins with Robert Downey continually realising that he's cocking up the story abd having to take you back and clarify and mention things that he forgot (and even sometimes telling people in the frame to move out of the way so you can see something) just keeps me laughing everytime. Quote: Harry: "Still gay?" Perry: "Me? No. I'm knee-deep in pussy. I just like the name so much, I can't get rid of it."
TWO – Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Here is an 80s classic. Ferris decides that the day is way too beautiful too be in school doing tests and learning about socialism so he fakes sick and waits for his parents to head to work to take the day off and have some fun. When I think of this film there are so many memorable moments that I can't seem to separate from the movie, but I think the moment that makes it special for me is this: (skip to 7:40 in the video)
ONE – The Blues Brothers (1980)
From the moment I discovered this movie I fell in love. From Jake's list of excuses to a homicidal Princess Leia to Elwood's unexplainable obsession with dry toast. The film is filled with so many jokes and absurdities that you can't help but laugh. I love even more that when Dan Akroyd first wrote the movie he actually wanted to explain the super powers of the Blues Mobile but eventually it was cut from the final cut of movie because it took a lot of the fun out of it. I love musicals and this movie gives me some great music and musical set pieces for me to love it.

Kate Middleton Attends First Post-Baby Event, Looks So Good It's Unfairby Free Britney at . Updated at .
Suffice it to say, new motherhood agrees with Kate Middleton.
Earlier this week, fans got our their look at her post-baby body weight loss, and it basically looks as if she never had a baby, much less just five weeks ago.
Now, for an encore, she attended her first public event since welcoming Prince George into the world, and was radiant as ever with husband William:
On Friday, the duo attended the Ring O'Fire Ultra Marathon in Anglesey, Wales, and were all smiles as they mingled with well-wishers before the race.
"Both looked genuinely happy to be there," an onlooker said of Prince William and Kate Middleton. "There was lots of laughter from the new parents."
"Many locals thanked them for being there."
The Duke of Cambridge was at the event to announce the start of the annual 135-mile coastal race, which takes place over three days around Anglesey.
Kate was not initially scheduled to accompany him, but sources say she wanted to "pop along" to show her gratitude for all the support she has received.
Casually clad in black skinny jeans, a polka-dot top, and a green blazer, the new mom looked beautiful as she made her way through the crowd.
Almost as effortlessly as her weight loss.
She has "hardly done anything to lose the weight," says a source. Kate's still breastfeeding, and the small weight she gained while pregnant has just melted off."
"She's not dieting."
To be so lucky ...

Well... I will be happy to tell you how I feel about him and will also Spreaaaaaaaaaaad a little about the being an important part of Pop Culture. #1 Making money does not a man make and it damn sure doesn't make him important. Do you think he is important? I've got an idea, why don't you turn off the TV- walk outside and see just what an impact he has on any small town in America! Not Dick does he have! If he is that important then why don't we put the Drug Cartel on a pedistal, maybe we could parade Donald trump around on a float or at the very fucking least name a National Holiday after Kim Kardashian . The pop culture is famous for doing anything to get attention. That means they will they can make an ass out of themselves by jerking a microphone out of Taylor Swifts hand or maybe they can masturbate on National TV with a "Foam finger" or they can bless us all for their LONG AWAITED political views on OBAMACARE or some other shit of the likes and God knows we cant get enough of that! Pop Culture is the very thing that "SHIT BRAINS" the youth and the recovery rate runs just 2nd to stage 2 cancer. He may have the money to back it ( whatever it is your impressed) up but he will never have enough money to by a freaking ounce of class. #2 I would have more respect for any and every fucking working stiff be it a Fry Cook or a Dog catcher. I wonder about anyone who would speak well of this lock jawed, half bad wanna be thug. I don't give a fiddlers fuck how many records he sells, he can't step up for anything that has REAL substance in society. #3 how in the hell can anyone admire anything in regards to pop culture. Ohhhh I'll be damned if I will ever be impressed by anything this MF'er does.

Philadelphia, PA -
04/04/2012 - The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage has awarded $858,430 through the Philadelphia Music Project (PMP) to nine music organizations in the Philadelphia area. Three of these organizations are first-time grantees as well as first-time applicants to the program. Through PMP's grants, internationally renowned artists representing a broad range of musical forms and styles will visit the region over the next two seasons to participate in music programs that promise to attract and inspire a wide spectrum of audiences. Some of these upcoming concerts, festivals, and staged productions revisit and draw inspiration from seminal works of the past, while many invigorate long-standing musical traditions by crossing genres or looking to new models of presentation and performance.PMP Interim Director Bill Adair notes, "These projects will engage audiences with music in inventive ways, expanding the conventions of musical production and presentation. Our 2012 grantees reflect the dynamism and diversity of Philadelphia's music scene, providing opportunities to experience music from many different genres and parts of the world."The 2012 funded projects include the East Coast premiere of a newly commissioned opera by a rising composer; a 24-hour, nonstop festival of North Indian classical music; a new choral work by an award-winning, Pennsylvania-born composer that explores the state's coal mining histories; and a year-long performance series celebrating Mississippi blues, presented by one of the region's premier radio stations.The Opera Company of Philadelphia (OCP) will present Silent Night, a new opera co-commissioned by OCP and Minnesota Opera, where it debuted in 2011 to sold-out performances. Adapted from French writer/director Christian Carion's 2005 film Joyeux Noël, the opera depicts a poignant moment during World War I, when battling soldiers declared a truce in order to celebrate Christmas. The Philadelphia presentation will be its East Coast premiere. It is the first opera by American composer Kevin Puts, a recipient of multiple awards, including an American Academy of Arts and Letters composition prize.First-time grantee Crossroads Music will present a 24-hour marathon concert of Hindustani (North Indian classical) music in April 2013, in collaboration with the Sangeet Society and South Asia Center at the University of Pennsylvania. The round-the-clock format of the event will give audiences a unique opportunity to hear Indian ragas that are meant to be played throughout the day, and are thus seldom heard at concerts performed during more conventional evening hours.Mendelssohn Club of Philadelphia will commission Julia Wolfe, co-founder of the acclaimed avant-garde music collective Bang on a Can, to compose a new choral work for a 130+ voice chorus and the musicians of the Bang on a Can All-Stars. Wolfe will draw inspiration from American folk music and Pennsylvania's coal mining history. Stories on the subject, told by Mendelssohn singers and participating community members, will be incorporated directly into the final work.University of Pennsylvania radio station WXPN, a first-time grantee, will celebrate the history and evolution of Mississippi blues, a musical style rarely heard or performed in the Philadelphia region, with the Mississippi Blues Project. This year-long performance series will host eight blues artists for live concerts and in-depth interviews, broadcast on popular WXPN programs, including the nationally syndicated World Café® with David Dye. Together, these performances and radio programs will introduce a relatively unknown art form to local audiences, as well as listeners around the country.For the complete list of 2012 Philadelphia Music Project grant recipients and full project descriptions, please visit www.pcah.us/music."We are pleased to support such a remarkable variety of programs," says Greg Rowe, Director of Culture Initiatives at The Pew Charitable Trusts. "These awards will make it possible for audiences throughout the region to experience a wide range of musical genres and performances by extraordinary artists."Philadelphia Music Project proposals are evaluated through a competitive process by a panel of internationally recognized artists, scholars, and music presenters with a broad collective range of knowledge in the field. In addition, a group of artistic advisors, specialists in various genres and periods of music, provided supplemental reports. For a full list of panelists, advisors, and their credentials, please visit www.pcah.us/music.The Philadelphia Music Project has funded a total of 324 project grants since its inception in 1989. These awards represent an investment of over $15.7 million in Southeastern Pennsylvania region's nonprofit music community and its audiences.The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage is dedicated to stimulating a vibrant cultural community in the five-county, Southeastern Pennsylvania region. Established in 2005, the Center houses seven funding Initiatives of The Pew Charitable Trusts, and through them supports area artists and arts and heritage organizations whose work is distinguished by excellence, imagination, and courage. Each year, the Center's grants make possible more than 800 performances in dance, music, and theater as well as history and visual arts exhibitions, and other public programs for audiences in Philadelphia and its surrounding counties. The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage is funded by The Pew Charitable Trusts and administered by The University of the Arts, Philadelphia. For more information, visit www.pcah.us.

Sleep apnoea and snoring are directly linked because during snoring the airway of the trachea is constantly subjected to repetitive collapse and obstruction; in fact, it is that collapse and obstruction that leads to the vibration that makes audible snoring. There are many very serious effects that can stem from this issue. Sleep Apnoea deprives the body of essential oxygen, and when overall blood oxygen levels are reduced, carbon dioxide levels rise as a result. This can lead to toxic build up that can cause heart disease, stroke, and brain damage.
Hundreds of people have experienced the benefits of these Snorguards, and regaining a healthy night's sleep can do you and your household a whole world of good. Make the change. Grab this deal and call them for your fitting.

Valpo and Oral Roberts Battle to Scoreless Draw in Mid-Con Opener
Friday, September 10, 2004Jeff Oleck (Indianapolis, Ind./Cathedral H.S.) made seven saves in notching his eighth career shutout as Valparaiso and Oral Roberts battled to a scoreless double-overtime draw on Friday evening at Eastgate Field in the Mid-Continent Conference opener for each squad.
The Crusaders' junior moved into second place all alone with his shutout, and trails Aaron Rhame by just four for the all-time career lead in a Valpo uniform. Oleck also has 200 career saves now, moving into fourth place on the all-time list.
Three of the saves, two in the second half and one in overtime, were of the diving variety to help keep the match scoreless for the Brown and Gold.
Oral Roberts' Tony Quartuccio was also up to the challenge, stopping six Valpo shots on his way to his third straight shutout on the year.
Valpo was outshot by the Golden Eagles 15-13 for the match and Oral Roberts (2-0-1, 0-0-1 Mid-Con) held a 12-5 advantage on corner kicks.
Valparaiso (1-1-2, 0-0-1) will return to action next Friday as the Crusaders entertain Butler in a 4:30 p.m. match.

BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia that can cause problems with thinking, memory, and behavior. Fifty to eighty percent of dementia cases are patients with Alzheimer's. The disease progressively gets worse, interfering with daily tasks. The disease is fatal and there is currently not a known cure. Although Alzheimer's mostly affects people 65 and older, it is not just a disease of old age. Close to four percent (or 200,000) of Americans, with the disease have early onset, also known as younger-onset, which appears when they are in their 40s or 50s. In the early stages of Alzheimer's, memory loss is mild. However, as the disease progresses it can cause a person to lose their ability to respond to their surroundings and lose their ability to carry on a conversation. Alzheimer's is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. On average, people live eight years after their symptoms are noticeable to others. However, survival can range from four to 20 years depending on age and other health concerns. (Source: www.alz.org)
7 STAGES OF ALZHEIMER'S: Not everyone will experience the same symptoms or progress at the same rate. However, Barry Reisberg, MD, clinical director of the New York University School of Medicine's Silberstein Aging and Dementia Research Center, created a 7 stage framework for the disease:
· Stage 1: No impairment. The person does not have any memory problems
· Stage 2: Very mild cognitive decline. Person may feel as if they have memory lapses, but can't be detected by an exam.
· Stage 3: Mild Cognitive decline. Family, friends, and co-workers begin to notice difficulties like remembering names, the right word, losing valuable objects, trouble organizing, etc.
· Stage 4: Moderate Cognitive decline (early-stage Alzheimer's). Medical interview should be able to detect it. Symptoms include: forgetfulness of recent events, impaired ability to perform challenging mental arithmetic, forgetfulness about one's own personal history, moody, and greater difficulty performing daily tasks.
· Stage 5: Moderately severe cognitive decline. Gaps in memory and thinking are noticeable and they begin to need help with day-to-day activities. At this stage, they will not be able to recall their own address; they are confused about what day it is; and they need help choosing clothes.
· Stage 6: Severe cognitive decline. Memory continues to get worse, personality changes get worse, and they need extensive help with daily activities.
· Stage 7: Very severe cognitive decline. They lose the ability to respond to their environment, to carry on a conversation, and eventually to control movement. (Source: www.alz.org)
NEW TECHNOLOGY: An important aspect of treatment is early detection. The FDA approved a new technology to detect Alzheimer's, called Amyvid. Its radioactive dye is used with positron emission tomography (PET) to visualize amyloid plaque buildup in the brain. It's designed to be used on adult patients with cognitive impairment. A negative Amyvid scan shows scarce plaques and is inconsistent with a neuropathological diagnosis of Alzheimer's. It also reduces the likelihood that a patient's cognitive impairment is caused by Alzheimer's. A positive Amyvid scan indicates moderate to frequent amyloid neuritic plaques; neuropathological examination has shown this amount of amyloid neuritic plaque is present in patients with the disease, but may also be present in patients with other types of neurologic conditions along with older people with normal cognition. In other words, if a patient with dementia does not have amyloid buildup, then the cause of dementia is likely not to be Alzheimer's. If the scan shows they do have amyloid buildup, their chances of having Alzheimer's increased. A positive scan does not establish a diagnosis of Alzheimer's, just increases their likelihood. More research is needed to understand the appropriate use of florbetapir-PET imaging in Alzheimer's diagnosis. The FDA approval of Amyvid will expand the clinical and research opportunities for amyloid imaging. The Alzheimer's Association has convened a task force with the Society of Nuclear Medicine to develop recommendations for the use of amyloid imaging for physicians, imaging and other medical specialists, Alzheimer families and the general public. (Source: www.alz.org)
Dr. Paul Schulz, Neurologist at Mischer Neuroscience Institute at Memorial Hermann-Texas Medical Center, talks about a new way to diagnose Alzheimer's.
What is the only way that Alzheimer's can be definitively diagnosed?
Dr. Schulz: The only way to definitively diagnose it in the past was with a biopsy or if someone passed away and you got a chance to examine their brain at autopsy. We were giving it our best guess as to what they have based on their symptoms and testing them, but we were never really certain about what they had.
What were you looking for in a patient's brain after they passed that would prove they had Alzheimer's?
Dr. Schulz: There's a protein that's deposited in their brain called amyloid and we only see significant amounts of it in people who have the disease. The amyloid that is deposited is the key. We would do stains on sections of their brain and we would look at the amount of amyloid that had been deposited in their brain. That would tell us that they had Alzheimer's disease versus any of the other dementias that can look very similar clinically.
Is it high levels of amyloid that signifies that?
Dr. Schulz: Yes, we have criteria. It turns out many people have a little bit of it. It's a byproduct of various reactions, but if you have a significant amount of it then that's pretty specific for Alzheimer's disease.
If that's the only way to make a definitive diagnosis, how would you make a clinical diagnosis?
Dr. Schulz: Typically people would come in to clinic and say, gosh I'm concerned about my memory, I'm getting lost, or I'm having word finding issues. If they are having memory problems, though, a lot of times a person is not aware of it themselves, so often times family members bring them in. I examine them and I give them things to remember. I ask them to draw things, describe how they get home from where we are, and try to understand whether they have significant issues that might be a sign of Alzheimer's disease. Then we would typically do some blood work to rule out things that can cause memory problems, like thyroid disease. We would do an MRI scan to rule out strokes, tumors, and abscesses. If we ruled out those things then we would be left with saying, well it's probably Alzheimer's disease or one of the other neurodegenerative diseases that looks like it.
So it was kind of a guessing game to some degree?
Dr. Schulz: Yes. I think that we all have had patients that we were certain had Alzheimer's or pretty certain didn't have it. But when they would come to autopsy, we would be surprised to find out about five percent of the time we were not in the right area at all. Also you could imagine from a research point of view that we enter people in clinical trials, and if it turns out that someone doesn't have Alzheimer's, then it wouldn't be surprising that a medication wouldn't work. So in retrospect I'm thinking that some of the patients whom we enrolled, that we thought had Alzheimer's, might not have and it might have confused our clinical trials in the past.
So now there's a new tool that was just approved in June?

AUSTIN -- Lake Travis Fire Rescue fire chief, Jim Linardos, resigned Thursday to accept a position as assistant director of wildfire mitigation with Austin Fire Department, according to a press release.
"I'm excited about the opportunity to focus on wildland fire mitigation," Linardos said Friday.
"We are saddened to see Chief Linardos leave Lake Travis Fire Rescue and are very proud of his accomplishments," LTFR board president Barker Keith II said Friday. "We are pleased to see that he will remain within the Travis County fire community as an employee with the Austin Fire Department."
Linardos joined the LTFR department in 2006 from North Lake Tahoe where as its fire chief, he honed his wildland firefighting tactics that served the south Lake Travis area well during the wildfires that struck Steiner Ranch on Labor Day weekend last year and threatened Belvedere subdivision in July 2011, the press release stated.
Linardos' resignation is effective Nov. 30, and he said he will begin at AFD on Dec. 10.

Reviews for Ultimate Stay-Up Solid Mid-Calf Dress Socks

Not worth it.......
I purchased the socks specifically because they supposedly stayed up. They didn't. In fact, it seemed to me that they slid and bunched up easier than regular socks. These socks are definitely not worth purchasing.

Size issues
One thing I've learned from military service and having to pass uniform inspections for cleanliness and fit is: SOCK SIZES ARE DIFFERENT FROM SHOE SIZES.
In the United Kingdom, a sock's size is similar to the person's shoe size; for example, a foot that has a shoe size of 9 would require a sock sized 8-10. In some other parts of the world socks are sized differently than shoes. In the U.S. numerical sock size is the length of the foot in inches, whereas shoe size is not.
With a 10.5" foot I wear a US size 9 (Eur 42) shoe. I've had issues with socks in general because the most common men's size sold is 10-13 (remember: inches). The Gold Toe company correlates men's sock size 10-13 to men's SHOE sizes 6 to 12-1/2 (quite a range!). Invariably I get the bunching up problem reported in the previous reviews. To combat this, I've always searched (with little success) for men's socks in the RARE size 9-11.
I don't yet own a pair of Tommy John socks; I'm hesitant to buy a pair of socks with a "Y-heel" could fit on a 13" foot...

Best Sock My Feet have ever felt
I just read the negative comments on these socks and happened to receive an email from the actual founder of Tommy John that addressed my footbed and length questions. After I read and learned this, I had no problems with these socks and they exceeded my expectations (which were already high since I love their underwear so much). The compression band on the arch is genius. Reminds me of my running socks.
I am will gradually change over since I have some other socks that are also new so need to cycle thru. Please make more colors

Poor value for money
1) Bought medium size (8-12) - "one size fits most" is correct as I fall right in the middle with 10 size and socks are too long from toe to heel. This leaves an unsavory looking "bunch up" in the back of the foot.
2) Socks stay up just as well as any others I wore so no advantage their.
Conclusion: Socks that cost $23 should be much better than this!

Socks Need An Instruction Manual?
I bought three socks ... I like the material and generally like all TJ products ... but I have issues with the socks.
I have a size 11.5-12 foot and the material bunches between the toe and heel ...as one reviewer said they are not sized properly. Other issue is that when stretched out on foot, color swatch on heel is visible over top of heel on my dress shoes ... another non-no. Funny that TJ is telling us how to wear socks properly after we have been wearing them for 50 years ... and they have been making them for 5 weeks. didn't know that socks needed an instruction manual ...

Rebar finishing will add 40 jobs in Knox County
NASHVILLE — Another 40 jobs are coming to Knox County as Gerdau expands its steel reinforcement bar plant.
The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development says the new facility will apply finishing services to rebar now made at the company's Lonsdale mill.
TDEC Commissioner Bill Hagerty and Gerdau officials announced the expansion on Monday, saying the plant will have the capacity to finish about 120,000 tons of steel per year.
Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett said it was good to see a vacant building in the WestBridge Business Park be put back into industrial use.

"I am honoured and extremely humbled to have been handed a testimonial by the Ospreys," said 31-year-old Jones, who has been an ever present during this season's Heineken Cup campaign and has played 135 times for the region.
"It promises to be a wonderful and memorable year for not just me but for my family as well, who have been a big inspiration for me and have shared the highs and lows of my career.
"I've been extremely fortunate to have enjoyed a long and successful career, not only with the Ospreys, but with Wales and the Lions, and rugby has given me a chance to experience things and go places I could never have imagined.
"The public have never shown me anything but 100 per cent support throughout my career, which I truly appreciate, and I hope to share my testimonial year with them through some wonderful events."
The Welsh Guards Afghanistan Appeal will be the official charity of the testimonial year, with the charity benefiting financially from the partnership.
Andrew Hore, the Ospreys' chief operations officer, said: "Ryan is a wonderful servant to the Ospreys and his country, and to rugby in general.
"His record speaks for itself, his achievements in the game are testament to the hard work and effort he puts in every day, constantly striving to improve.
"He remains one of our most reliable performers, someone who leads by example on the field."

Hi all,
I have a 1.1.1 baught in US that I jailbreaked using jailbreakme.com.
Unlocked, converted it to swedish language and was fully working, though only 300 or so MB of room??
Did an "in-phone restore" to delete all data, wich fucked up the phone.
No biggie I thought, just restore to 1.1.1 from i.unlock.no and re-do the unlock process.
And the bugger just wont activate!
I have tried lots and lots of times, everything seems to go OK, Safari even exits back to the activation-screen, but then the phone never restarts.
I have restored back to 1.1.1 several times, everytime with the same results.
Tried another router just in case, no difference.
Does anyone have any idea on what might be going on?

Lipodystrophy refers to the changes in body fat and metabolism seen in some people with HIV. Lipodystrophy can include:
Buildup of body fat
Loss of body fat
High levels of fats and sugar in the blood. To learn more, read the AIDSinfo fact sheets on Hyperlipidemia and Diabetes.
The exact cause of lipodystrophy is unknown. It may be due to HIV infection itself or medicines used to treat HIV. Fortunately, current HIV medicines are less likely to cause lipodystrophy than medicines developed in the past. Many people with HIV never develop lipodystrophy.
Other risk factors for developing lipodystrophy include:
Fat buildup (also called lipohypertrophy) can occur:
Deep in the abdominal cavity. This is the part of the body that contains the stomach, the intestines (also called the gut), and other organs.
On the back of the neck between the shoulders (called buffalo hump)
In the breasts
Just under the skin. (The fatty bumps are called lipomas.)
Fat loss (also called lipoatrophy) tends to occur:
In the arms and legs
In the buttocks
In the face
A person with HIV can have fat loss or fat buildup or both. Whether the changes are obvious to see or not noticeable depends on the degree of fat loss or fat buildup. See images of fat buildup around the neck and fat loss on the face and leg.
High levels of fats and sugar in the blood can increase the risk for heart disease and diabetes. To learn more about these conditions, read the AIDSinfo fact sheets on Hyperlipidemia and Diabetes.
More research is needed to prove that there is a link between HIV medicines and lipodystrophy, but some HIV medicines have been associated with the condition.
Fat loss has been linked to the use of stavudine (brand name: Zerit) and zidovudine (brand name: Retrovir). Both HIV medicines belong to the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) drug class. (HIV medicines are grouped into drug classes according to how they fight HIV.) Zidovudine is also a component of the following combination medicines: Combivir and Trizivir. Combination medicines include more than one HIV medicine in a single pill.
Fat gain has been linked to HIV regimens that include the following HIV medicines:
It can be. Too much fat gain in the abdominal cavity can increase the risk for heart attack and diabetes.
Fat gain in the breasts can be painful. Buffalo humps may cause headaches and problems with breathing.
The changes in appearance caused by lipodystrophy can be upsetting and affect a person's self-esteem. Because of lipodystrophy, a person may decide to stop taking HIV medicines. However, the decision to stop taking HIV medicines (or cut down on the dose of a medicine) should be made only in consultation with a health care provider. Stopping HIV medicines allows HIV to multiply and damage the immune system, which increases the risk of HIV-related infections and cancer. Stopping HIV medicines also increases the risk of drug resistance.
Unfortunately, there isn't a cure for lipodystrophy. More research is needed to understand the cause of lipodystrophy in people with HIV and to find a cure for the condition. However, there are ways to manage lipodystrophy.
In some people, changing HIV medicines may lessen the effects of lipodystrophy. But, if you are taking HIV medicines, do NOT cut down on, skip, or stop taking your medicines unless your health care provider tells you to.
Liposuction (surgical removal of fat) is sometimes used to reduce a buffalo hump. This procedure is not recommended for removal of abdominal fat because of possible damage to surrounding organs. Fat or a fat-like substance can be used as a filler to make up for fat loss in the face. The filler is injected in the cheeks or around the eyes and mouth.
Medicines may help lessen the effects of lipodystrophy. For example, Egrifta is a medicine used to reduce the buildup of abdominal fat due to lipodystrophy.
Diet and exercise may also help to manage lipodystrophy. More fiber in the diet, for example, may reduce the risk for developing diabetes. Daily exercise can help strengthen muscles and reduce the buildup of fat.

Return to 2011 Changemakers List
Vice President, Strategic Meetings Management
SunTrust Bank
PAST Harris has been working in various facets of the meetings industry for the past 16 years, starting in special event sales, then moving to catering, and convention space and hotel sales. Her first corporate meeting planning job "involved handling soup to nuts, but I quickly moved to specialize in the site selection, contracting, and negotiation of meetings and events. As a sourcing manager on a consolidation account, that's when I began to understand the thought process around consolidation and supplier management.
CRED Since 2000, Harris has worked with several Fortune 500 companies on various components of their strategic meetings management programs. Then in 2005, she brought the SMM concept to SunTrust as a consultant. "I was able to build the business case that not only earned the approval for the SMMP, but also created my current position to develop and execute the program companywide."
"I did not apply for my current role; I created it. I was able to put together a business case to show the ROI in bringing me on as a full-time consultant. In the consultant role, I was also able to move a decentralized organization to a centralized SMM strategy."
HIGHLIGHTS "I was passionate that an SMMP was the right direction for the company, and I would say that seeing the program grow and gain compliance and momentum (which resulted in a 20 percent savings in year two) was one of the greatest highlights of my career."
LOOKING AHEAD "Over the next few years, I see my focus concentrated on the ROI and overall value of meetings to the organization. I envision many opportunities for me to share the successes and challenges I have met along my path in SMM and to assist other companies in building strategy for a successful program or to retool an existing program for greater impact or increased adoption."
KUDOS In 2010, Harris was among the first 29 people to earn the Global Business Travel Association's new strategic meetings management certification (SMMC). She also joined GBTA's Groups and Meetings Committee. Since then, she has spoken at various conferences, instructed classes on SMM, and become an SMMC educator.
ADVICE "Build strong relationships with both your peers and suppliers alike. This industry is a close-knit community with a wealth of knowledge. Be open to learn from your relationships, but most of all, share what you have learned with others."—Barbara Scofidio

It was a fire in a Bucks County home two weeks ago, and other issues related to PECO's smart meter program, which have drawn Pennsylvania's Public Utility Commission into PECO's smart meter controversy.
Michael Cappeto of Upper Makefield said the "only thing that changed in his home was we had a new meter put in." Cappeto says that meter was installed in July. On August 12th. the meter, the electric box and sections of his home all caught fire.
PECO says it is investigating this fire and eight other overheating incidents involving the new digital meters. The utility says there have been 15 fires and meltdowns of the 186,000 meters installed to date.
Now, the Commonwealth's Public Utility Commission, in a letter obtained by Fox 29 Investigates, wants answers.
The letter, dated last Friday, and sent to a top PECO official, lists 17 areas where the Commission wants to know more.
The PUC asks the energy giant what it did to make sure its meter vendors were providing safe and reliable equipment and instillation. The Commission also wants to know how many meters have overheated and what type of training was provided to PECO and contractor installers.
PECO spokesperson Karen Muldoon Geus says "the smart meter issue in general is very important to us. The safety of our customers and employees is absolutely paramount."
Muldoon Geus adds PECO's technical staff is putting together a response and the utility will meet the Commission's 10 day deadline to reply.
PECO has placed the installation of 1.6 million smart meters on-hold while it investigates problems with the program.
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

The hotel itself is eclectically decorated, yet the rooms are a bit small. As far as accommodations go, there are better places to stay, but the Crescent is great for other reasons. For a neat romantic experience, horse-drawn carriages will pick you up from the Crescent and take you through the whole downtown area. Cuddled under a warm blanket with your loved one on one of those is a must in Eureka. The New Moon Spa is a part of the Crescent on the bottom level and my favorite place in Eureka Springs. You feel relaxed just entering the spa. They offer all kinds of services and packages, and all of them are heavenly. They are an Aveda salon and spa, so every service they provide is all natural. All in all, the Crescent Hotel and Spa should be on your list when you visit Eureka.
