As a coach at Cressey Sports Performance and a personal trainer at Equinox , I can not tell you how much I love dead bugs. I use them in my warmup and during my strength training programs. Sometimes they get boring, sometimes they are too easy, and sometimes they are tough.
While I'm not here to explain the dead bug in detail, as you can read that on Tony Gentilcore's Website Here<<<<<<
I am here to help shed light on a exercise that teaches the body to mimic the movements required during rotational sports.
Why is that important you may ask? If you play any rotational sport like tennis, golf, baseball, and hockey then you understand the importance of the separation that takes place between the torso and hips. Therefore, training in a way that teaches the body to rotate in opposite directions makes sense.
** Note : You can do this with a small resistance band if you do not have access to a ViPR
Key Coaching Points
1) Grab either a VipR or small resistance band from the side and set up in a regular dead bug position
2) Ensure low back is flushed to ground to encourage a posterior pelvic tilt
3) Take a deep breath in through the nose and as you begin to exhale more the bad or ViPR in the opposite direction as the leg that moves forward. This causes your body to fight against rotation but also stabilize there anterior core.
4) It is best to approach this exercise slow and controlled as a lot of people will want to rush through the exercise which takes way from owning the movement.
I will typically of 2-3 sets of 5 REPS per SIDE of maximal effect.
Give the lateral shift a try and I'm sure your typical dead bug routine will become a lot more interesting.

Dance classes tend to be low impact, so you can break a sweat without putting too much stress on your joints (or aggravating a cold-related sinus headache). You can go at your own pace, as well: Take it easy on days you're not feeling 100 percent, and try to just enjoy the party.
Worst: Lifting Weights
Your strength and performance will likely be diminished while you're battling a cold, says Besser—especially if you've missed out on quality sleep—putting you at increased risk for injury while trying to lift heavy equipment. Plus, the muscle strain required to lift weights can cause sinus pressure and headaches to feel even worse, he adds.
Still don't want to skip a strength workout? Do it at home, where you won't be spreading germs and sharing your sickness with other weight lifters, and give yourself a break by using lighter dumbbells than usual. (Increase your reps, not the weight, if you need more of a challenge, says Hulse.)
Health.com: The Best Strength Moves for Weight Loss
Best or Worst: Swimming and Biking
Like walking and jogging, other forms of moderate cardio can help clear congestion and boost energy levels, says Hulse—but they won't work for everyone. "It's really a matter of personal preference, what type of symptoms you have, and what your normal routine is like," she explains.

Swimming, for example, can feel quite refreshing, and may help open up airways. (For people who suffer from allergies, it can also help by washing away pollen and dust.) But some people may find it difficult to breathe while congested, or may be irritated by chlorinated waters. Biking can also be a nice, moderate exercise, but may dry out nasal passages and increase symptoms like sore throat and runny nose.
Health.com: Bike Your Way to a Better Body
Worst: Team Sports
Just like using the treadmill or weight machines at the gym, playing sports that involve physical contact can encourage the spread of illness. "If you're a pro athlete, then your coaches and teammates may expect you to be out there no matter what," says Besser. "But in something like a friendly neighborhood basketball league, they're going to thank you for sitting one out."
Cold and flu viruses spread through droplets, like tears and saliva—but also through hand-to-hand contact, he adds. "If you wipe your nose and then you pass the ball, you've just passed those germs on, as well." A 2011 study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that the sports teams are at high risk for outbreaks of the stomach flu norovirus among members.
More: Conquer the Cold and Flu in 20 Minutes
Worst: Anything Outdoors in the Cold
Working out in freezing temps may be detrimental to some people battling cold symptoms, but not for the reason you may think. Contrary to popular belief, cold weather in itself will not lower immunity or cause you to get sick—not even if you go outside without a coat or you sweat so much your hair gets wet.
What can happen, however, is that cold, dry air can restrict or irritate airways—triggering a runny nose, coughing, or asthma-like symptoms, says Hulse. If you find that you are sensitive to these conditions, winter activities like skiing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing might be even more difficult when you have a cold.

Plus: What about allergies?
Sometimes, what people think of as recurring cold symptoms—sneezing, headaches, nasal congestion—are actually allergies in disguise. "If you find that you are seeing those symptoms come on at the same time each year, you might want to ask your doctor about getting tested," says Besser.
Allergies to pollen and ragweed can make outdoor exercise difficult in the spring and fall, he adds, while allergies to dust, mold or harsh cleaners can be triggered by workouts at the gym or in other enclosed spaces. If you can pinpoint the cause of your symptoms, an antihistamine or other treatment can likely help you get back to your normal life—and your normal workout routine.

The most interesting factoid about DJ Premier is that the Houston born producer is one of the architects of what "classic" New York hip-hop sounds like. Not only does it remind you that in fact, "The South Won" in regards to musicianship within the genre but also that Premier's three decade run in hip-hop has little parallel. From delivering the kind of production that shaped jazzy '90s hip-hop for Gang Starr and others, Preemo expanded to snare Grammy wins with Christina Agulierra and more. To take the NPR staff out of the always volatile news cycle, Premier led a nine-song medley inside the NPR Tiny Desk studios. Backed by his touring band aptly named The Badder Band, the troupe played records from Premier's hand, Nas' "Nas Is Like," KRS-One's "KRS-One Attacks," and finished it out with Gang Starr's "Moment Of Truth." With as expansive a catalog as his, Tiny Desk fans could have gotten hours of Primo records from artists such as Jay-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., Group Home, AZ, Kanye West and more. Instead, the nine picks from Premier serve as a reminder of how long he's had his thumbprint in hip-hop. And why he'll never let the memory of Gang Starr fade. DJ PREMIER, TINY DESK SETLIST 01. KRS-One – "KRS-One Attacks" 02. KRS-One – "MC's Act Like They Don't Know" 03. Das Efx – "Real Hip-Hop" 04. Nas – "Nas Is Like" 05. Jeru The Damaja – "Da Bichez" 06.

This week we talked about transportation and community helpers. Here are some of the fun things we did!
1. We washed cars.
2. We got to use the light table. I had some overhead transportation pieces that they got to explore with. We have the light table in a box so that the lights can stay on. The kids love it!
3. We did some magnifying glass letters and recording. You can get that activity here.
5. Here are a couple of crafts we made...police hats
and a garbage truck.
What were you up to this week. Share over at Doodle Bugs Teaching.

Ross-Ade in the house!
Ross-Ade in the house!
Mama gave me my 1st puzzle of 2018 in honor of our NYC trip. Let the clock begin! Attempt #1
2nd attempt
Finished in under 6 hours. Took me a bit longer b/c I tried not to use the box top. I'm a glutton for a challenge.
Question… which is next, popcorn or Purdue?
2016? 2017? Who cares. Let's watch basketball!
She said she wouldn't sit next to me. But, she did.
Boiler the Fork Up!
No trip to Boiler country is complete without a visit here!
Interior of Mackey got some cool upgrades this year!
The thing I love about this venue is every seat has a great view. Lots of new banners, flags, and big screens! It looked really great in there.
As we are talking about 2 bigs, we were guessing where Haarms is from. Sweden? Finland? The boys in front of us turned and said "Netherlands." I think they were his brothers… tall and skinny.
We didn't get to see this light show, but damn this is cool!
1 more stop to surprise this guy!
Can't head back to campus without visiting 2 of my favorite spots! Stop #1 for dinner!
Then over to Loeb Playhouse to see the recent AGT top finalist, Diavolo, perform. Clearly this student was not taught theatre manners. Come on kid, get it together!
The show was titled Passengers. Act I did not excite us. The dancing and movement was very rhythmic, but the props were not. They used large hard wood white boxes. CS says, "It's like a office full of cubicles." Well, they portrayed that one right with the name of Act I being "Cubicles". Act II brought on the big structures we were waiting for. It well made up for Act I! Lots of jumps, slides, and tumbling.
The trip wouldn't have been complete without a stop # 2 to the ole' NC to visit my friend the Piano Man!
Where he kindly kept reminding the audience how old I was. He forgets, he ages too even though everyone around him stays the same age. 20 years and he still rocks the full room!
Nice of this Hoosier to spend extra money on the IU plate then give attention to my mighty Boilermakers!
Those hot 4 minutes I spent on the bracket didn't turn out too bad! Picked a few of the 1st round upsets, but not the 2nd.
Will this week be as kind to me? Boiler up!
Whenever my HLP and I make a bet, I have to be careful with the punishment so that I'm not the one who looks silly. For the IU v PU basketball game, I told her to bring a Tervis to our viewing party. Loser has to drink out of the opposing team's Tervis for 48 hours. Going in, I was pretty confident. During the game, not so much. It came down to the very last minute. Victory for me! Sorry Tervis, you have to endure some CC for a little bit.
I'm a fan of Hoosiers.
Hoosiers meaning the state, not the University. Get it?! I was privileged to attend the preview screening of the new documentary about my great state. I must admit, I cheated on my history test about presidents. I didn't think that info was useful in high school. History, not my thing. Only so much room in our brains for info. But tonight, I was excited to gain insight into my state's bicentennial celebration. And I even got to hear from the historian James H. Madison himself.
I may start learning about history. Shit. I'm old.
Big 10 games were in town. I won't complain about free tickets. I will complain about watching Rutgers v. Nebraska. Boring.
Probably the most exciting part was the halftime Big 10 baby race with each school represented. This had to violate some NCAA rule.
Best part, I love you Robbie Hummel!
As the weekend approached, it was time to put in some work. Previously.
I did a toughness pose-off with Sparty. I think he won. Coolest thing was as we were walking to the start line, Coach Izzo was walking by the Circle. I've seen him before. He's quite noticeable. I elbowed CS and said "That's Izzo." As we passed by I said, "Hi Coach!". He responded, "Boiler Up!" Awesome.
Least favorite part of the race. Totally kills the momentum.
I decided I needed a selfie. I'm a dork.
A look back.
Usually I recruit double digit participants to represent. My numbers are dwindling. My loyal 2016 crew.
Even the warm temps couldn't keep WFD away. Got to use my flax seed mittens when I got home. I'm an old ass lady.
But only 6 seconds/minute slower than 2 years ago. Take it. Bonus note: 1st in my age group!!! So, let's do it again the following week at my fav location. Previously. Hello Holliday!
Getting back into the running swagger, I was excited to race. This place just energizes me. It showed in my finish. 30 seconds/minute faster than last year. 2nd fastest pace ever for me there. Again, I'll take it.

Maurio Rua will be facing Gian Villante in the co-main event of Saturday Night's UFC Fight Night 106 card. The Brazilian can appreciate that Villante is a fan of him, but insists their fight on Saturday Night is a part of a long standing rivalry.
"(Villante) has followed me for a while and says he's my fan," Rua said to MMA Junkie. "But this a thing that worries me. I need to watch out for that, because I know when the fight comes he wants to rip my head off and I want to rip out his. I can't think, 'Oh, poor thing, he's my fan.' I need to think that he wants to finish me, and I want to finish him. He certainly deserves some respect. I know he roots for me and has followed me for a long time, but on Saturday it's a rivalry."
Villante and Rua are both ranked in the top 15 of the UFC Light Heavyweight Division. While he's entering the bout on a two fight winning streak, a loss would be shattering for Rua.
"(Losing is) always bad," Rua said. "Because you put months into the preparation, so losing really sucks. But, as a fighter, you need to be ready for wins and losses. If I wasn't ready for it, I would have given up already. I think every fighter needs to know how to lose."
UFC Fight Night 106 takes place on Saturday, March 11 from the Centro de Formacao Olimpica do Nordeste in Fortaleza, Brazil with Kelvin Gastelum and Vitor Belfort headlining, the main card airs live on Fox Sports 1. Fightful will be providing live coverage of the event, with a post-show podcast to follow.

Sportradar Announces Appointment of New Chairman Tony Aquila with the Addition of Three International Members
GALLEN, SWITZERLAND/NEW YORK — (February 5, 2019) Sportradar, the leading global provider of sports data intelligence, today announced the expansion of their global board including four prominent international names: Tony Aquila, Marc Walder, Herve Couturier and George Fleet. These four join shareholder representatives Carsten Koerl (CEO of Sportradar), Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB), and Silicon Valley-based growth equity firm TCV on the Sportradar Group Board.
Aquila will serve as the Global Chairman of the Sportradar Group Board. He serves as Founder, Chairman and CEO of Solera Holdings, Inc., a global technology company that develops next-generation solutions which manage and protect both businesses and consumers within the automotive, mobility, financial and cybersecurity industries in over 90 countries. He is an inventor with 100+ patents, serial entrepreneur and philanthropist who was named EY's National Entrepreneur of the Year in 2013 in the Technology category.
"We are delighted to welcome Tony and our new group board members during such an opportune time of explosive growth for Sportradar, the source code of sport," said Carsten Koerl, Chief Executive Officer, Sportradar. "Each board member brings an incomparable wealth of experience and strategic vision that will further enhance the expertise of our board as we continue to build the ecosystem of sports insight. We have not only doubled down on the U.S. as the betting market continues to open but are ramping up our efforts to transform the way our betting partners (bookmakers, lotteries and casinos), leagues, broadcasters, and digital/social media companies delight fans and protect the business of sport."
Walder, a former professional tennis player on the ATP Tour, is currently the CEO of Ringier, a Swiss media group employing 7,000 employees in 18 different countries, and founder of the nationwide initiative digitalswitzerland. Couturier is a non-executive board member at Sabre, the world's leading provider of solutions for the travel industry, at SimCorp SAS, the leading provider of investment management software solutions for the world's leading financial organizations, and is the former CTO of Amadeus. Fleet is Head of Advisory at Canaccord Genuity and comes to the board with almost 25 years of experience in investment banking with particular experience in complex public and private acquisitions, mergers and disposals
"I am thrilled to serve at the helm of Sportradar's global board, especially now, during this exciting time of growth," said Aquila. "Sportradar has always played a pivotal role in innovating and strengthening the industry as it continues to gain marketshare in key regions such as the U.S. and secure its leadership position. I, along with the board, look forward to working with Carsten to help take the company to the next level and continue its aggressive growth and expansion."
In July, CPPIB, through its wholly owned subsidiary, CPP Investment Board Europe S.à r.l., and TCV acquired a stake in Sportradar at an enterprise value of EUR 2.1Bn (~USD 2.4Bn) from private equity firm EQT and certain minority shareholders. EQT also reinvested a portion of its sale proceeds into Sportradar. Additional existing shareholders include Revolution Growth, entrepreneur Ted Leonsis, basketball legend Michael Jordan and entrepreneur Mark Cuban.
Sportradar is the leading global provider of sports data intelligence. The nexus between sports and entertainment, the company serves leagues, news media, consumer platforms and sports betting operators with deep insights and a suite of strategic solutions to help grow their businesses.

Check a bit of interesting chiz from a bona fided "Run away! Run away!" cat (He certainly didn't think like this in his ancient readable thing filled up with paper LOL)
Anywrought - Arab League is like totally kaput - and true and faux regional unArabic hegemons are sweetly circling overhead
The Arab Spring has unleashed the Arab Collapse. Everybody still standing in the region is picking the flesh of the helpless. The Islamist cancer proved more virulent than Arabs themselves expected, while dying regimes behave with unrestrained ruthlessness.
We're witnessing a titanic event, the crack-up of a long-tottering civilization. Arab societies grew so corrupt and stagnant that violent upheaval became inevitable. That's what we're seeing in Syria and Iraq — two names, one struggle — and will find elsewhere tomorrow.
When Great Satan is in the Middle East, the Arabs want us out. When we're out, they want us in. But our purported Arab (and Turkish) allies consistently agree that Uncle Sam should pay the party bill, while they take home all the presents.
Yes, Syria's humanitarian crisis is appalling. Yetthe calls from the region for American action are nakedly cynical.
Turkey has the largest military in NATO after our own, but cries "helpless" crocodile tears over Syrian refugees — while dreaming of rebuilding the Ottoman Empire upon their ruined lives. Our Saudi "friends" spent decades building the most-sophisticated military arsenal in the Middle East, apart from Little Satan. Now the Saudis wring their hands over Syria's misery — but won't intervene directly to stop the killing.
The region's outdated order is disintegrating. But Washington's still mesmerized by the artificial boundaries on the map.
Nine decades ago, the diplomats at Versailles ignored the region's natural fault lines as they carved up the Middle East, forcing enemies together and driving kin apart (while Woodrow Wilson turned his back on the Kurds). Only brute force and dictators kept up the fiction that these were countries. Now the grim charade has reached its end.
Who can say how many new states will emerge from the old order's wreckage. But the Scramble for the Sand is on, with Iran, Turkey, treacherous Arab oil sheikdoms and terrorists Sunni and Shia alike all determined to dictate the future, no matter the cost in other people's blood.

I'm trying to develop a website that offers peer-to-peer services similar to Clarity.fm. Currently, the MVP is being done in Wordpress.
There's no "best" answer here, but you can approach it a number of ways.
For trendy/future-facing, an isomorphic JS stack (Redux, React, etc.) could be a good move. The architecture is scalable and — if no one on your team hacks around the implementation details — it's easy to maintain (and onboard new team members).
You can also use WordPress as your CMS, but that can get weird when scaling, and isn't the most developer-friendly solution due to WP's wonky architecture. You can unfuck it somewhat using something like roots.io (Trellis/Bedrock), but at the end of the day it's still WP, and those quirks are part of the price you pay for the ease of starting up.
Another option is to use WP as a CMS, but read the content from the REST API and generate sites with other front-end tech. I recently built some tools to generate static sites (for deployment in Amazon's S3/CloudFront) that pull the WP data as JSON and then generate static pages with my preferred front-end tools, leaving the weird PHP templating out of it entirely.
To take a crack at a tl;dr: talk to your development team about how you want this to scale, and where you see it going in the future. If you don't have a development team that can make those calls, talk to a specialist to help lay out a roadmap.
If you need help with this, I'd be happy to take a look at what you're planning and offer some insight into how it could be built to scale and grow painlessly (or at least as painlessly as possible). Send me a message and we can talk details.
Good luck!
I would absolutely agree with Jason. There is no perfect answer. There are only options. And the best option is to use something that you or someone in your team already knows. If you know PHP. Why not use it to your advantage. If you know WP and are able to build it this way - good for you - just get started. Get users on the platform. Have people use it. And worry about the next step once there are users.
In the long run. I personally would build something on top of Node.JS with a front end framework of your choice (react.js, angular.js or ember.js are good options).
I hope this helps a little and keeps you motivated. In the beginning, it's all about actually bringing the idea to market. Actually launching and then see where you want to develop your own new solution.
And as Jason mentioned: even if you stick with WP as your MVP. Once you want to start developing it further, you can still use the WP REST API to read data from WP and start building a new interface around it.
Good luck and have fun on that journey!

Its raining upgraded 100 cc models from the brand which does 100 cc best..
2010 CWG Limited Edition Passion Pro:
Hero Honda has recently launched a new Limited Edition Passion Pro model to commemorate the 2010, New Delhi - Commonwealth Games.
News Source: Economic Times
"The new bike has an all-white body with sporty looks, striking new dual-tone blue and green graphics inspired by the colours of the Games",
-- Anil Dua, Senior Vice President (Marketing and Sales Hero Honda) said.
The bike comes with the special XIX CWG 2010 insignia on its side cover.
The CWG 2010, Limited Edition Passion Pro costs around Rs.46,300 (ex-showroom Delhi). Which is just Rs. 1,000 over the regular, 'alloy wheel + self start' variant of the Passion Pro (Rs. 45,300).
2010 Splendor NXG:
There is no mention of this model anywhere. Even Hero Honda has not made any public comment on this model yet.
Cosmetically there might be small changes, but specification wise there probably is no real change. But, how can I be sure that's it's a new 2010 model from Hero Honda?
Well, just look at the tail piece. "APDV" is written proudly on it. I have yet to find out what this "APDV" means, but this certainly seems to be Hero Honda's latest move in 2010 to brand its 100 cc models (discounting the CD Dawn and CD Deluxe) with the acronym "APDV".. including the new Splendor Pro..!!
2010 Splendor Pro:
Yes sir, the largest selling single model in the world, the venerable Hero Honda Splendor finally gets an upgrade.
News Source: Economic Times
While the model till now was called the 'Splendor+', the new model is being called the "Splendor Pro"..!!
What's new on the Splendor Pro?
- Electric Start (on one of the variants)
- New design instrument pods
- New Graphics (well of course)
The engine has been left almost untouched. The new Splendor Pro's engine still makes a faithful 7.8 PS of power now (slightly up by 0.3 Ps over the 7.5 Ps of the older Splendor+). The only significant addition in the new Splendor Pro is the Self Starter (as an optional feature).
The Splendor was the only model (apart from the entry level motorcycle, CD Dawn) from the Hero Honda stables to not feature the "Self Start" feature. Even the model below it the CD Deluxe had 'Self Start' as an optional feature.
More over with the Bajaj Discover 100 breathing down heavily on its neck with average monthly sales numbers of around 80,000-100,000, Hero Honda had no other option but to put the self starter on the Splendor.
Price:The new Splendor Pro is priced at Rs. 39,950 (Spoke-Drum-Kick Start, Ex-showroom, Delhi) and Rs. 41,950 (Spoke-Drum-Self Start, Ex-showroom, Delhi). Which means that the self start variant is Rs. 2,000 dearer than the kick start model. The Alloy + Drum + Self Start model is priced at Rs. 42,950 (Ex-Showroom Delhi).
On road Delhi prices for the Splendor Pro ranges from Rs. 46,600 (Spoke + Self Start) to Rs. 47,700 (Alloy + Self Start).
The price of the older Splendor+ (without self start) is Rs. 39,450 (Spoke-Drum-Kick Start, Ex-showroom, Delhi) and Rs. 40,450 (Alloy wheels-Drum-Kick Start, Ex-showroom, Delhi).
By the way, I see no reason why the older Splendor+ should continue, and in my opinion it will most probably will stopped from production in the same way as the Passion Pro has replaced the Passion Plus (accoring to a showroom I visited, the Passion Plus has been stopped from production).
I also feel that there is a bit too much chrome on the above instrument pods.

A theoretical look at how Minnesota's U.S. Senate election could give way to Coleman-Franken II: The Rerun.
• The Senate election trial, in which Republican Norm Coleman is challenging DFLer Al Franken's 225-vote lead, ends with the three-judge panel ruling in Franken's favor.
• Coleman appeals to the Minnesota Supreme Court.
• In the Senate, which has the final say on whom to seat, Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., moves to install Franken.
• Senate Republicans, holding 41 seats, block the Democratic majority from getting the 60 votes needed to break a filibuster and seat Franken.
• The Senate stays stalemated, public concern mounts for Minnesota to have its two senators, and the Legislature calls for a new election.

A medical privacy breach led to the public posting on a commercial Web site of data for 20,000 emergency room patients at Stanford Hospital in Palo Alto, Calif., including names and diagnosis codes, the hospital has confirmed. The information stayed online for nearly a year.
Since discovering the breach last month, the hospital has been investigating how a detailed spreadsheet made its way from one of its vendors, a billing contractor identified as Multi-Specialty Collection Services, to a Web site called Student of Fortune, which allows students to solicit paid assistance with their schoolwork.
Gary Migdol, a spokesman for Stanford Hospital and Clinics, said the spreadsheet first appeared on the site on Sept. 9, 2010, as an attachment to a question about how to convert the data into a bar graph.
Although medical security breaches are not uncommon, the Stanford breach was notable for the length of time that the data remained publicly available without detection.
Even as government regulators strengthen oversight by requiring public reporting of breaches and imposing heavy fines, experts on medical security said the Stanford breach spotlighted the persistent vulnerability posed by legions of outside contractors that gain access to private data.Continue reading the main story
The spreadsheet included names, diagnosis codes, account numbers, admission and discharge dates, and billing charges for patients seen at Stanford Hospital's emergency room during a six-month period in 2009, Mr. Migdol said. It did not include
The breach was discovered by a patient and reported to the hospital on Aug. 22, according to a letter written four days later to affected patients by Diane Meyer, Stanford Hospital's chief privacy officer. The hospital took "aggressive steps," and the Web site removed the post the next day, Ms. Meyer wrote. It also notified state and federal agencies, Mr. Migdol said.
"It is clearly disturbing when this information gets public," he said. "It is our intent 100 percent of the time to keep this information confidential and private, and we work hard every day to ensure that."
Diane Dobson, of Santa Clara, Calif., said her "jaw dropped" on Saturday when she intercepted the letter from Ms. Meyer addressed to her 21-year-old son, who she said had received emergency psychiatric treatment at Stanford in 2009. Ms. Dobson said it could have been disastrous if her son, who lives at home, had learned that his name was linked to a
"My son, I can tell you, is fragile and confused enough that this would have sent him over the edge," Ms. Dobson said, saying she decided to speak publicly now because of her frustration with the breach. "Everyone with an electronic medical record is at risk, and that means everyone."
Records compiled by the
Since passage of the federal
The major breaches — a disconcerting log of stolen laptops, hacked networks, unencrypted records, misdirected mailings, missing files and wayward e-mails — took place in 44 states.
One occurred at the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford in January 2010, when a desktop computer holding the medical records of 532 patients was stolen from the heart center by an employee. Hospital officials said at the time that no patient information was compromised.
But the
The Stanford episode reinforces the fear that even the most prestigious medical centers are not immune to risk.
Massachusetts General Hospital in
The Department of Health and Human Services viewed the breach as a potential violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, the 1996 law that requires protection of medical records.
Mr. Migdol, the hospital spokesman, said Stanford had concluded that "there is no employee from Stanford Hospital who has done anything impermissible." He said he expected the federal Department of Health and Human Services to conduct its own investigation. Susan McAndrew, a deputy director in the department's Office for Civil Rights, said she could not discuss whether an investigation was in progress.
The vendor, identified by Mr. Migdol as Multi-Specialty Collection Services L.L.C., based in
Mr. Migdol said the company created the spreadsheet as part of a billing-and-payment analysis for the hospital. He said the hospital immediately suspended its relationship with the contractor and received written certification that previous files would be destroyed or returned securely.
Tina Warner, a vice president at Chegg, an online company that bought Student of Fortune in August, said the site's principals were unaware the data had been posted until informed by the hospital. They then "took it down within 30 seconds," she said. Ms. Warner said the identity of the person who posted the Stanford data could not be determined from the user name.
Bryan Cline, a vice president with the Health Information Trust Alliance, a nonprofit company that establishes privacy guidelines for health providers, said nearly 20 percent of breaches involved outside contractors, accounting for more than half of all the records exposed.
Dr. Cline said health care providers depend unjustifiably on legal contracts with vendors to protect medical records. "That just doesn't work, as we can see," he said. "You have to do due diligence, something to assure yourself that the people you're giving your data to can be trusted."Continue reading the main story

I have a 1962 Raleigh Blue Streak in my stable. It's a survivor, covered with over 50 years of patina, rust and grime.
Riding it takes me to a simpler place. For about 10 years, I had it set up as a fixed-gear, putting about 7,500 miles on it. I've got a TRO Orange Speedhound belt-drive for fixed-gear riding now, so I recently put the Blue Streak back to something like its original specification, as shown in a 1962 Raleigh catalog. I think of it as a sympathetic recreation, and even though I've used some new bits to keep it on the road, such as an alloy 27X1-1/4" rear rim, an alloy seatpost, and Kool Stop brake shoes, it's still a Raleigh Blue Streak, from Nottingham, England. It says so right on the frame and it doesn't matter what parts might adorn it.
Messing around with the old Raleigh got me thinking about the essence of a bike's identity. Yes, a bike is an assembly of parts, but it's the frame that defines it. What would I get if I took the old parts from my Blue Streak and put them on a Speedhound frame? The result would be a Speedhound bike, not a Raleigh. That's because the frame is the soul of a bicycle, its DNA, what it is. The parts an owner chooses for it will depend on his or her purpose – sport riding, commuting, gravel racing, or just getting around. It might have cantiliever brakes, dual pivot calipers or hydraulic discs. Single speed, internal gear hub, or 30-speed derailleur gearing. A belt or a chain, puffy tires or skinny racing slicks. How about high rise handlebars and a banana seat? (I'll have to try this sometime.) But no matter what, the bike you build on a Speedhound frame will always have that Speedhound soul. That's the beauty in creating one for yourself. As we like to say, "Quavis velocitate" — go your own speed!

The Porta Pack does make the SoundWorks transportable, although it lacks room for anything else.

KENSINGTON, Md., Sept. 3 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "Psoriasis Cure Now," a nonprofit patient advocacy group, today released updated resources to help parents of children with psoriasis as their kids head back to school. The organization offers a free fact sheet on children's psoriasis that parents can print off the internet and deliver to their child's school teacher; and it offers a free podcast interview with a leading pediatric dermatologist discussing how to treat psoriasis in children and how to help them cope with it. These resources and more are available at http://www.psoriasis-cure-now.org/psoriasiskids.php .
"Psoriasis can be tough on kids, and it's no picnic for their parents, either," said Michael Paranzino, president of Psoriasis Cure Now and someone whose psoriasis started in high school. "As children with psoriasis head back to school, these resources will help their parents 'educate the educators' about the unique challenges faced by kids with psoriasis."
The podcast interview is with Amy Paller, MD, the Walter J. Hamlin Professor and Chair of Dermatology, Professor of Pediatrics, at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine. Dr. Paller is one of the nation's leading pediatric dermatologists and an expert on psoriasis in children. She offers a wealth of information in this interview, including treatment strategies for psoriasis in children, what to tell a child's teacher about the disease, and how to address the emotional impact of psoriasis that can significantly impair a child's quality of life.
The back to school fact sheet about psoriasis in children is designed for parents to give to their child's teacher, coaches, school nurse and others who interact with their child during the school day. Hundreds of thousands of American children have psoriasis, a non-contagious disease of the immune system that causes skin cells to replicate too quickly, producing dry skin that can itch, crack, bleed and be quite painful. A recent study in the British Journal of Dermatology found that children with psoriasis report impairment in their quality of life that equals the impairment reported by children with other chronic illnesses such as epilepsy, diabetes and asthma.
Psoriasis Cure Now is also in the midst of its $10,000 psoriasis video contest, with short videos about psoriasis being accepted for three more weeks. And it is preparing for the first-ever Short Sleeve Day, nationwide on September 15th. More on all of these projects is available at their web site:

Amir Garrett lost his mojo last season somewhere between Cincinnati and Triple-A Louisville.
Garrett started out the 2017 season like he was bound for the Cy Young Award. He was 2-1 with a 1.83 ERA after three starts. In his Major League debut April 7, Garrett pitched six scoreless innings against the St. Louis Cardinals.
»WATCH: Joey Votto explains his message to young players
»RELATED: Votto says what everyone else is thinking
»RELATED: Bailey eager to build on strong finish to last season
The 25-year old had one more good start before the ceiling he reached collapsed in back-to-back late May starts against the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland. In those outings he gave up six and seven runs, respectively.
The Reds sent him to Louisville. His confidence took a hit and his hip started to act up.
"Getting hurt and having my ups and downs, I felt I lacked confidence a little bit," Garrett said. "I had a great offseason and watched a lot of video. When you go through struggles you find out a lot about yourself. I'm back and no matter what I go through, that confidence will never, ever leave me ever again. I was timid. All of that is out the window. The real Amir that they were excited about is back; 2017 is over."
Reds manager Bryan Price left Garrett off his list of eight possible starters on the first day of camp but was excited about the left-hander's performance in his split-squad game against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.
Garrett pitched two perfect innings and struck out four.
"Amir was as good as I've ever seen him," Price said. "He had velocity with command. He threw a slider and change-up for strikes. That's the kind of performance you want to see from a guy coming off a tough season. He came out snorting fire and attacked the zone. It was a dare-to-be-noticed moment."
"There was nothing holding me back," Garrett said.
Castillo sharp
Luis Castillo pitched two scoreless innings against the White Sox, allowing one hit while striking out one.
"Luis was sharp. He was around the plate with three pitches," Price said. "It was exactly what you would want out of the first spring game."
Castillo threw 29 pitches. With a good report on Homer Bailey, Price is encouraged about the competition.
"Things are shaping up," Price said.
Reds adding outfielder
The Reds are bringing outfielder Ben Revere into camp. They intend to sign him if he passes the physical.
Revere, a left-handed hitter, has played for five teams in his eight-year career. He was with the Los Angeles Angels last season, playing in 109 games with a .275 batting average. Revere is known for his speed and his glove.
The 29-year old from Lexington, Kentucky broke in with the Minnesota Twins in 2010. Revere played for Philadelphia, Toronto and Washington in addition to the Angels.
A career .284 hitter, Revere led the National League with 184 hits in 2014 while stealing a career-high 49 bases for the Phillies. He stole 21 with the Angels last season.
Aquino launches one
None of the reporters covering the Reds traveled to the White Sox game. Price went on the road, while Jim Riggleman managed the Reds against Cleveland at home.
Price described a long home run by Aristedes Aquino against Chicago's Michael Ynoa.
"He got an inside fastball and pulled it right down the line off the back fence," Price said.
The back fence at the Camelback Ranch Ball Park is about 40 feet up a hill past the left-field bullpen fence. It would have traveled around 400 feet.

Information Security Degrees: The Glamorous Possibilities
If your goal is to someday have an above-average salary and excellent job security, information security is right up your alley. A degree in information security will open up your world to many diverse career possibilities, so if you're considering this exciting field, read on.
High Demand and High Salary
Large corporations, such as Facebook, Sony and Skype, depend on information security professionals to protect the sanctity of their employees, investors and customers. Do you remember the infamous Sony hackers incident in 2011? Millions of people had their personal information jeopardized because hackers outsmarted Sony's security. Information security professionals who excel at their jobs are always in high demand for this reason; no company wants to find itself in the middle of a controversy because it was unable to protect consumer information. After this happened, corporations began taking security much more seriously and are more willing than ever to pay qualified individuals very well to guarantee security. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median income for information security analysts, web developers and computer network architects is $76,000 a year. Those titles are just a few of the career possibilities.
Additionally, hackers are always getting smarter, so your job will constantly evolve—don't expect a hum-drum routine. Also, information security is a great choice for adventurous types, as this skill set is in demand all over the world.
Perpetual Possibilities
There is a wealth of career possibilities, should you acquire a degree in information security, and you may be surprised to discover how exciting they truly are.
Computer Crime Investigator: Government and law enforcement agencies need information security specialists to assist investigations into crimes involving computers. Computer crime investigators get to use advanced technology in order to uncover deleted or hidden data.
Malware Analyst: Government and the private sector are always in need of malware analysts to examine malicious software like bots and worms in order to analyze the nature of their threats. Reverse engineering is used, and many companies will hire these professionals to develop ways of blocking malicious code as well as to protect their environment and respond to incidents.
Information Security Forensics Expert: This path involves analyzing the aftermath of a system's security breach in order to figure out how it occurred, in addition to which systems were compromised. This role is fitting for an expert in reverse engineering as well as forensics. Not to mention, you must always be up to date with the latest methods of system exploitation.
Forensic Analyst: These professionals analyze computer systems to identify who is responsible for the misuse of a system or to find out what type of hardware/software was used to commit a crime. Major banking, financial and health organizations are always in need of forensic analysts to preserve and interpret computer evidence.
Incident Responder: When a security incident is discovered, companies call upon an incident responder to immediately monitor computer systems for breaches and report them so the appropriate countermeasures are taken accordingly and in a timely manner.
Information Security Analyst: Because demand is so high, this option could lead to employment with almost any company. The majority of businesses require an information security analyst because they assess the effectiveness of information security policies and point out vulnerable aspects of their systems. Analysts work in multiple departments of the company in order to make suggestions for improvement.
Chief Information Security Officer: If you can handle a lot of responsibility and enjoy being in charge, this career is an excellent choice. Large organizations need officers to oversee the entire network of people who safeguard a company's security. They determine what the company's digital protection objectives are and oversee investigation of security breaches.
Getting Your Information Security Degree From an Online Program
If you think you don't have the time to pursue one of these exciting careers, you may want to think again. Online degree programs have made it possible for you to obtain your degree in a flexible format that suits your schedule while learning from some of the most experienced people in the field. You can broaden your understanding of the industry and reach your educational goals while still juggling other obligations. Earning your information security degree online may just be the right choice for your professional life.

The Department of Education (DepEd) was shocked on the news of the untimely death of one of the education key officials in a freak vehicular accident that had occured sometime in the morning of August 29 in Pililla, Rizal.
|Usec F.Varela
What a great loss to the agency for losing a principled man so dedicated to his job, making things done in the virtue of honesty .
Mr. Varela is well-loved by his education colleagues as a leader, as a catalyst for reforms in education, "judicious spender" in education, advocate of anti-corruption, compassion on learner's plight, and a great exemplar of hardwork and honesty.
Assistant Secretary and Chief of Staff Rey Laguda and Asst. Sec. for Planning and Development, Jesus Lorenzo R. Mateo have recalled their memorable moments with Usec Francis Valera while working together respectively.
|Varela with Laguda
In his personal FB account, ASEC Rey Laguda expressed the gross loss of a colleague in the DepEd the following day of Mr. Varela's accident.
"I am deeply saddened by your passing. It is surreal. I half expect to see you on Monday at the office. But I know I never will.
"DepEd lost a great man today. Our country lost a patriot. I lost a colleague, a leader, a mentor, a friend.
"I offer my sincerest condolences to the family of Francis. Allow me (and many others) to share in your pain and anguish in the hope that we may somehow lighten your burden."
|Varela with Sec. Luistro and ASec Laguda visiting schools in mountain remote area
Great Influencer
"You lived life with so much passion. You infected me enough to dive underwater, climb Bongao peak, and more importantly, to stand against the headwind for the sake of the Filipino learner. You pushed us to our limits so that we can discover the truth and bring out in us a facet we never thought we had. Thank you Francis."
Man of Principle, Honest, Compassionate
Education Assistant Secretary Jesus Mateo has this to say too about Usec Varela:
Mr. Varela is "very instrumental in forging ahead education reforms particularly in ensuring that every cent in the education budget is spent judiciously."
"He was a staunch advocate of anti-corruption efforts in the Department and played a very important role in instituting reforms to ensure that ethical standards are observed in all transactions involving the agency,"
He is "highly principled man" with "a sharp mind, a willingness to make tough decisions, and...compassion for the Filipino learner."
In his 5 years stint as undersecretary of education for Finance, Mr. Varela is an instrumental in preparing the K to 12 program for full implementation.
At 47, Varela died in an accident in Pililla, Rizal.
We in the DepEd do express of condolences to Sir Varela's bereaved family. May his soul eternally rest in peace.

There's an old Toothpaste For Dinner comic (or is it a Bible verse?) I can't locate right now that states 'pop culture references are not a substitute for humour.' So maybe Fashematics isn't funny, but it's kinda cute, which coincidently is the best I strive for a lot of the time (but surpass with ease as I am obv a hilarious mega babe).

Reptiles and Santa make a visit to the children of RIDBC
Westfield North Rocks has treated the students of the Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children (RIDBC)'s Alice Betteridge School to a morning of visits from 'Crocodile Encounters' and Santa Claus.
The 'Crocodile Encounters' reptile show gave students the opportunity to get up close with a tortoise, crocodile and snake. This was followed by a visit from Santa who arrived to wish each child a merry Christmas and to give each of them a toy.
The event formed part of Westfield's Community Program, launched in 2008. This program sees each Westfield centre around Australia partner with a local disability organisation in order to help improve the lives of children and families living with a disability in their local area.
"The decision for Westfield North Rocks to partner with RIDBC was an easy one," said Westfield centre Manager – North Rocks, Glenn Page. "RIDBC is just across the road from the centre, often receiving visits from RIDBC students, staff and families. We see firsthand the challenges that these children face and overcome, and so the relationship we have with RIDBC is a strong one."
Glenn was invited to attend the reptile show and visit from Santa at RIDBC Alice Betteridge School.
"It was fantastic, the students at RIDBC Alice Betteridge School are amazing – they face so many challenges in their lives. It was really rewarding to see the excitement on their faces when the reptiles came out – and then when Santa arrived," said Glenn.
"It's such a small thing, but to be able to see how you can make a difference in the lives of these children – to give them an experience that brings them joy, particularly at Christmas, is truly satisfying."
Students who attend RIDBC Alice Betteridge School have a significant hearing or vision impairment as well as a level of intellectual disability.
"This event was an extremely generous effort by Westfield North Rocks," said RIDBC Chief Executive, Chris Rehn.
"Westfield North Rocks has provided an ongoing fundraising commitment throughout the year, with this event one of many organised by the centre in support of RIDBC. Efforts like these allow us to continue to provide quality, innovative services to children living with a sensory impairment."
The Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children assists over 3000 children with significant hearing or vision impairment and their families across Australia.
RIDBC relies heavily on fundraising and community support to be able to continue to make a difference in children's lives. In order to maintain its intensive educational and research programs, the organisation needs to raise approximately $2.5 million every month.
To find out more about how you can get your workplace involved in fundraising for RIDBC, visit www.ridbc.org.au or contact Johanna Yule on 9872 0249.

This month, we welcome renowned celebrity stylist Robert Quinn as he shares his tips for repairing your summer-damaged strands, advice to achieve the hair you've always wanted and more. This is one interview you don't want to miss!
LatestHair: The end of summer is in sight so back-to-school and back to a regular routine is on the horizon for many. What is a quick and easy style idea (or styles) for women (especially students!) as they ease back into busy lifestyles?
Fun and trendy ponytails are a great, easy style to incorporate into a busy routine. Pull hair high and tight on the top of the head for a fun daytime look or turn the high ponytail into a top knot by twisting the remaining hair into a bun and pinning it in place. Low ponytails also look great by pulling hair loose around the nape of the neck into a ponytail or using pins to do a fun textured look or bun. Try natural looking waves by simply letting your hair air dry which lools great for all lengths of hair. Remember to use a defrizzing finishing hair product like Pureology Shinemax to manage any flyaways.
LatestHair: August can be the hottest month of the year for most places. Are there any special hair care steps we should be taking for added protection and preparation for the fall months?
Hair can become dehydrated just like our bodies can. Using a leave-in hydrator is essential to help keep moisture in check. Try 7 Seconds Condition by Unite to add moisture to the hair and protect it from the sun and styling tools. Kerastase salon treatments also do a great job of repairing damage and keeping hair healthy. They are great for enhancing shine, strength and suppleness. Be sure to use a shampoo and conditioner appropriate for your own hair type: moisturizing for dry, color protector for color-treated hair or strengthening for damaged hair.
LatestHair: For those of us that have a color appointment this month, is it time to start transitioning to fall color? On that note, what color trends do you see making an appearance for fall 2012?
Wait to transition you summer color to fall. We still have a few more months of warm weather and summer hairstyles, and by the time you need color again, we will be right at the beginning of the fall season.
Hair color gets rich and shiny for the fall and should stand out. The season will showcase great color trends like rich reds, mahogany, golden browns and icy blondes. Ombre technique and prismatic hues will also continue to trend across all ages.
LatestHair: What is the single HOTTEST hair trend right now that you would like to encourage our readers to try this month?
Changing the length of your hair is the hottest trend right now. The three best ways to do this would be by adding bangs, going for a 60's inspired bob or going super short with a pixie cut. Recently, Jennifer Aniston took her long hair to a sleek shoulder length style, Michelle Williams wears her short pixie beautifully and Rose Byrne cut bangs creating allure and sex appeal. Talk to your stylist to get a professional opinion of what would look best for your face, body frame and lifestyle.
LatestHair: What is the number one hair care or styling mistake you see women making right now and what is your advice to "fix" it?
The number one mistake women make with their hair is trying to wear a cut, color or style that does not suit their look or age. Wearing an unflattering hairstyle limits your fashion and confidence. Don't be afraid to update your look and try something new. Explore options you thought you couldn't wear with your stylist. Utilize their knowledge and expertise to find a personalized color, cut and style that enhances your features by making your hair your best accessory.

Maintain Gas Furnace Los Angeles
While it is easy for homeowners to maintain their gas furnaces, any repairs or installation of any gas lines should be left to a certified professional. The first and most important step when working on your gas furnace is to shut off the gas prior to starting any maintenance or repair on your gas furnace.
To shut off the gas, follow the gas line from the furnace back to the manual shutoff valve, which is a red-handled valve. Turn the handle to the off position. This is usually at a 90-degree angle, or perpendicular to the pipe. You will have to wait approximately 5 minutes before you perform any work.
When burners develop a dirty build up around them, this can cause a yellow flame or delayed ignition. To avoid this problem and an expensive service call, simply clean the burners once a year. This routine maintenance procedure requires the use of your owner's manual, because every furnace is different. If you have misplaced or lost your owner's manual, please contact the manufacturer of the furnace and request a new owner's manual.
The following are general instructions for cleaning burners:
Trace the gas line to the burners and carefully examine the fittings and brackets. To ensure that you can reinstall the fittings and brackets, you will need to take careful notes on how the burners are aligned as well as how they are held in place.
If the color of your pilot light is yellow or if your pilot light fails to stay lit after you release the control knob, the flame is not getting enough oxygen, which is often caused by not enough heat to trigger the thermocouple. If however, the color of the fame is mostly blue, then the reason why your pilot light fails to stay lit could be due to the thermocouple.
Before you start to clean the pilot, make sure to first turn off the gas and disconnect the pilot line from the bracket housing the burner. Once you have disconnected the pilot line, remove, and clean the nozzle. You can remove debris by gently blow through the nozzle, or better yet, replace it with a new nozzle.
When cleaning or replacing the thermocouple, you will need to remove the nut at the end nearest the pilot. Your next step is to pull out carefully the thermocouple from the bracket. You then will need to clean carefully the end of the thermocouple. Your thermocouple should be cleaned yearly to prevent ash and other debris from building up on it. This build up can prevent the thermocouple from firing the furnace correctly.
To clean the thermocouple you can use very fine-grit sandpaper to remove any ash or debris. Once it is cleaned, replace the thermocouple, and then retest the flame. If again the flame fails to light or is the wrong color, replace the thermocouple.
To replace the thermocouple, you will need to turn off the pilot and cut off the gas at the manual shutoff value. In addition, you will need to also shut off the power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. The thermocouple will have to cool down before you can loosen the nuts with a wrench to remove the thermocouple. After you have removed the thermocouple, take it with you to a dealer so that you will be sure that you purchase the correct one. Once you have installed the new thermocouple, turn on the power at the circuit breaker, turn back on the gas, and relight the pilot.
If your furnace is less than 10 years old, then chances are it will have an igniter and not a pilot light. In order to check the igniter, one person will need to watch it as another person turns up the thermostat. If the igniter does not glow through the observation window, then it may need to be replaced.
To use a multimeter to check your igniter, you will need to unplug the wired leading into the igniter, and then place a lead on each of the igniter wires leading back into the furnace. Then you will need to set the millimeter to read AC volts. Turn the thermostat up high enough to start the furnace. If the meter reads approximately 120 volts, then the igniter is faulty. If there is no power, then the problem is with the control box. DO NOT attempt to repair or replace the control box yourself. You will need to call a service person.
To replace the igniter, loosen the screw in the bracket, which connects it to the furnace. You will need to then replace it with an igniter that is of the same model and make, so take it with you to your dealer to ensure that you purchase the correct igniter.
It is important that when you handle the igniter, that you hold it by the porcelain or the bracket. Do not touch the surface of the igniter because the oil from your fingers can shorten the life of the igniter. After you have reattach the igniter wires, and screw it in place, you will then turn up the thermostat to test the igniter before you reattach the cover.

Tens of thousands of Kurds in southeast Turkey have given a thumbs down to a series of government reforms designed in part to salvage a peace process with Kurdish insurgents.
Protesters waved banners declaring their disappointment that the measures did not include setting jailed PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan free.
Emine Ayna of the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party addressed the crowd: "You have expressed your will with this march and you have shown that the only reform package that you will recognise is a status for Kurdistan and freedom for our leader Mr. Ocalan."
Although many Kurds said the reforms announced by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan had not gone far enough others were less dismissive of his so-called "democratisation package"
"These revisions are good, I believe there will be more reforms. They will clear the way for individual rights and freedoms and a new dress code in public places is also worth noting," said local resident Tevfik Barut.
The dress code refers to the lifting of a ban on the wearing of the Islamic headscarf in public spaces
One main grievance addressed by Erdogan was the proposal to reduce the threshold for a political party to enter parliament to five percent. Until now the ten percent bar has kept pro-Kurdish groups out.

Previous posts have discussed the impact that a traumatic brain injury can have on a person's life. More than 2,000 former NFL players and their wives have filed a class-action lawsuit against the NFL, accusing their former employer of not doing enough to prevent repeat concussions and long-term brain injuries. The former players claim that they suffer from depression and early-onset dementia.
Californians may be interested in a recent article in The New York Times that discusses a study presented at the annual meeting of the American Headache Society. The study found that veterans who suffered a traumatic brain injury still suffered the same amount -- or even more -- from the injury eight years after the injury. The researchers found that this was the case for soldiers injured by explosions and also those injured in car accidents.
Post-concussive syndrome symptoms include problems with memory, headaches, dizziness and depression. Doctors used to think that these symptoms would fade over time, but now it is seen that the symptoms persist. Particularly severe TBIs or repeat TBIs have been shown to lead to early-onset dementia similar to Alzheimer's called chronic traumatic encephalopathy.
Traumatic brain injuries are always serious. The symptoms of TBIs can make it difficult or impossible to work and can cause problems in a person's marriage and home life as well. TBIs must be treated early and the treatment must be tailored to the individual and include both psychiatric and medical care.

I forgot to post Thursday because of an office party. Tonight (Friday-ish) I was gaming with friends and forgot about posting til now.
I have decided to only back-date one post, this one, to appear as if it were actually written on Friday. My reasonableness relates to the fact that I'm gonna let go of not posting on Thursday. Really, I tell myself, it's gonna be ok.
Game night was awesome. We ate great food and laughed and talked. We ate some flan I made too. It came out very well.
My gaming compatriots, rocking some Dominion. (Notice that those girls got Moxie! )
Regarding the flan: as I cooked it I realized I may have inherited Mom's baking gene. I don't bake often, but when I do, it usually comes out well.
Ok. I'm falling asleep. Peace out!

It's difficult to understand why some thin people have belly fat. Such people are not aware that their body is showing that it's unhealthy. No matter how hard you try, you might not have figured out how to shed belly fat properly. In this piece, you will master more about proven ways to lose stubborn belly fat with the right habits and foods. Get ready to improve your health significantly. Belly fat is linked to some life-threatening illnesses like type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. If you have belly fat then its a clear indication that you have more fat in your body. Let's discover more about shedding belly fat.
Minimize Alcohol
It's true that most people feel heavy after a long night out. You feel like a balloon. That aside. Make sure that you minimize your alcohol consumption if you want to reduce your waist size. Yes, you heard me right! You don't have to give it up altogether if you like it, limit the amount that you take daily to regulate your weight.
Sidestep Extra Sugar
Don't eat excess sugar because it contains fructose that is connected to many dangerous illnesses when taken in excess. The diseases include type 2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity, liver disease and much more. Lots of studies reveal a relationship between high sugar and increased abdominal fat. Its worth noting that not only refined sugar promotes the development of belly fat. Keenly inspect the labels of products like cereals in the supermarket, and you will be shocked to discover the amount of sugar that they contain.
Eat More Fish
Fish, just like water provides life. Some fish are known for working wonders in the human body. For instance, eating salmon only once every week has been shown to enhance brain and mental health. If you dislike the idea of eating fish, then you can use supplements. A study carried out on kids and adults with fatty liver disease reveals that fish oil supplements help in diminishing liver and abdominal fat.
Use Apple Cider Vinegar
This doesn't seem like an excellent idea but try drinking a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with a glass of water daily in the morning. Obese folks who take one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar every day for three months reduce more than 1.5 cm on their waists. The acetic acid present in the apple cider vinegar is effective in fighting belly fat.
Drink Green Tea
Tea is found in almost all homes, If you love tea, ensure that you have three cups of green tea daily to shed excess weight. Green tea increases the feeling of satiety and calms you down.
Avoid Stress
Its easier said than done when it comes to stress management. If you want to reduce stress avoid drinking coffee and sleep in a dark room for not less than eight hours.
Probiotic Foods
Probiotics have a special place when it comes to aiding weight loss. Probiotics have been proven to enhance gut health as well as immune function,
