We talked last week about scheduling diagnostic tests and the "work" that goes into getting that task accomplished. When test day arrives there are some things you can do to make it easier to undergo the test. Depending on what type of medical test it is, pick out clothing that will provide easy access to the part of the body being tested. If you are having various scans or MRI's leave your jewelry home where it will be safe. I recommend loose sleeves for blood draws, elastic waist pants and slip on shoes.
Hopefully you have followed the pre-test preparations correctly. I once was in a cubicle waiting for an ultrasound and I couldn't help but overhear the conversation behind the curtain next to me. (Do they really think we believe there is privacy just because we can't see the person who is 5 feet away?)
Anyway, they were asking the poor guy what he had ingested since midnight and he said "only my pills". This would have been ok except he had taken them with cranberry juice. He had prepped for a colonoscopy and they had to cancel the test because the juice would skew the results. Bummer!
When the test is over ask the person who performed it what doctor will be interpreting the results and when that will be done.
I then inquire as to when the final results will be sent to my doctor. Most often, the results need to be sent to the doctor who ordered the test because he or she is the one who will call you with the results. It must go through the proper channels which means you have a wait ahead of you. That is often the worst part. To speed this along I call the ordering doctor to inform him where and when the test was done so he can be on the lookout for the results. Unless they are growing something in a Petri dish none of this should take more than a few days so if you don't hear in a reasonable time, call and "remind" the ordering doctor to please try and get your results. This is where having a good rapport with the office staff really comes in handy.
After the test, document the results, where and when it was done, where your test results (films, slides) are stored and maintain contact information for that facility should you need to retrieve this data. This is great information to add to your health care notebook. There are a few reasons why you want to track this. First of all, if you are monitoring a chronic issue you can make note of when to schedule a follow-up. Also, timing becomes important to ensure that your health insurer will pay for follow up tests. For example, I am allowed a routine mammogram every year (unless something comes up) and if I schedule it even one day too soon I will have to pay for it.
As I get older and have more tests done for various things it has been extremely helpful to know at a glance where that MRI of my spine that I had done 3 years ago is stored. In case I go to a new doctor I can access the old pictures to bring along for comparison. It's all about comparing to the baseline so having your slides and films from the past can help immensely with a new diagnosis.
By organizing this information for you or those you care for, you are creating an easily accessible history and chronology of test results. You have just taken another step on your way to becoming an organized caregiver.

Obituary – Manning Bar, 20/11/09Written by Shane Arnold on December 3, 2009
Here we go – yet another tour by an American metal band that's older than a bunch of our readers. And yet it's another band that not only still has it, but don't appear to have ever lost it. Most impressive indeed! Obituary have been head banging since way back in 1984. That's a pretty serious career in metal, proving that only the strong survive. And being a bunch of regular cool guys that clearly enjoy music and performing for their fans makes them even more special.
If only we could all be that cool in our 40's – just like that uncle that everyone had growing up. You know, the laid back unmarried one that smoked and talked about listening to Black Sabbath and Jimi Hendrix, and most likely had heard of your favourite band. There were certainly a few uncles at the Manning Bar for Obituary, and a stack of young-uns. Obituary made some new fans after this show, their sheer loudness and aggression combined with some exceptionally slick riffs make converts easily assimilated. Resistance is futile when you're being aurally assaulted by the twisted metal of songs like Chopped In Half.
The fist-in-your-face fury of Internal Bleeding was suitably well received. Doom-laden dirge Final Thoughts also went down a treat in the mosh, with arms and legs everywhere – mixed in with a bit of stage diving action. One sour note, they didn't play mega-hit I Don't Care. What the hell, you mean they really don't care? But Obituary earned redemption when they capped off the night with Slowly We Rot from their epic first album. Top notch death metal from one of the pioneers of the genre – we can only hope Obituary make it out for another tour before they eventually decide to pack it in.

Sweet Black Wallpaper Images
If you think about your favorite websites, you probably recall seeing a lot of white backgrounds interrupted with periodic pops of color. But you don't often see a black background.
There are plenty of reasons for this: a dark background can be unreadable if done incorrectly, people can be intimidated by such a striking visual choice, people may labor under the misconception that a black background is automatically flat and lacking depth, and the list goes on from there.
Here, we'll take some time to explore in-depth the reasons why black, the deepest of colors, is often underutilized. We'll address everything from cultural significance of the color, to how to address the visual challenges often associated with a black wallpaper, black image, or black background. Who knows? By the time we're done, you may be willing to give a dark background a second glance, or even a second chance.
As a sample of a few options availabe, the following list of images are ready to use for any application. To download, right click and select "Save Image As..."
A brief art history of the color black
Since time immemorial, the color black has been utilized to make visual art. Prehistoric artists mixed their own black pigment using charcoal and mineral iron which they used to create early cave paintings like the ones found in France's Lascaux Caves that date back over 17,000 years ago. The pigment used in those cave paintings held up largely intact for several millennia, so it's safe to say that the color black has some real staying power in more ways than one. Since these paleolithic cave paintings were done on walls, you could even say this was pigment was kind of like the original black wallpaper! You can also find black silhouette figure paintings on clay pottery from ancient Greece that is still remarkably well-pigmented approximately 2500 years after the fact.
In the 14th century, fashion trends shifted. Until that point, people dressed in fine clothing dyed in bold purple, red, or blue hues to signify wealth and importance, but then laws were passed limiting the wearing of those colors to nobility. Bankers began dressing in black to show off their own wealth and high station, and soon enough kings began adopting the somber but striking black robes for their own. Late Renaissance-era painter Giovanni Battista Moroni was noted for painting pictures of the nobility and religious figures swathed in their dark robes standing in front of dark gray or black backgrounds. His paintings remain an example of how texture can be incorporated into a black image to give it dimensionality even in the darkness.
But perhaps our favorite tale of the color black in art history happened a lot more recently than these earlier examples. The story begins in 2014 when a UK-based company called Surrey NanoSystems announced that they had created the darkest shade of black in the world. Their revolutionary product which they dubbed Vantablack absorbed an astounding 99.96% of the light that hit it, making it a pretty mind-bending color to look at. In 2016, a sculptor named Anish Kapoor signed a contract with Surrey which gave him the exclusive rights to use the so-called world's "blackest black" in art. Many artists had been interested in testing out the pigment, especially when the company developed a much less expensive spray-on version: however, the company opted to work with Kapoor because he has long incorporated voids and negative spaces into his art. But other artists were incredibly frustrated to be denied the opportunity to explore such a revolutionary tool in the context of their own artistic medium. One such artist was painter Stuart Semple.
Semple had been mixing his own colors and pigments since he was a student in university. He was annoyed that an artist has essentially copyrighted a material so no other artists could use it, and the fact that he hadn't even created the pigment itself was an additional blow. Semple had already created for himself a vivid fluorescent pink paint. In December of 2016 he listed tubes of the color (which he dubbed "Pinkest Pink") for sale on his website with one caveat: He included a warning that people were not allowed to purchase "Pinkest Pink" and give it to Anish Kapoor, nor could Anish Kapoor himself purchase it. To everyone else, it was fair game.
While Semple was annoyed with Kapoor, he didn't expect his stunt to be marketable: it became a type of performance art for him. But unexpectedly he got swamped with over five thousand orders. Kapoor, not to be outdone, posted a picture of himself on Instagram with his middle finger dipped in a pot of "Pinkest Pink" and making an obscene hand gesture. But Semple may have gotten the last laugh, here: Surrey has now developed Natablack 2.0, an even blacker shade of the world's blackest black synthetic pigment, meaning Kapoor's exclusive contract doesn't mean that much what with a new and improved Vantablack in the works. As you can see the history of the color black when used in visual media can be a pretty wild ride.
Cultural significance of the black
When you're contemplating using a black wallpaper on your phone or a black background for your website, you may not realize that you're doing more than making a simple visual choice. Your design choices may be informed by unconscious biases you have with certain colors thanks to cultural implications that you might unknowingly associate with the color black. We'll delve into the significance of the shade in a wide cross-section of cultures to help you analyze the way you think about it.
Black symbolizes dark concepts like death, mourning and evil across many cultures: as a result, your kneejerk reaction may tell you instinctively to stay away from it. This is true in most Western cultures, as well as in Thailand and Tibet, where black specifically tends to be associated with evil. But there are plenty of other connotations attached to the color as well. In the Middle East black does represent mourning, but it also symbolizes a more hopeful concept: rebirth. In many African countries, the color black can represent strong and dignified concepts like masculinity or maturity. Likewise, in China, black is also connected to masculinity: in fact, that is the color associated with boys, much like how in the United States we use blue to denote boys vs. pink for girls.
We continue the masculinity trend in Latin America, where many cultures associate black as a masculine color: it is often a favored color for use in men's clothing. But the same cultures also tend to ascribe to black being a color of mourning as well. Finally, the one thing most cultures can agree on, is that the color black goes hand-in-hand with magic and the unknown. As you can see the color black holds varied meanings for people from cultures all over the world, which is a good thing to understand if you're contemplating using a dark background.
Marketing considerations regarding the color black
Now that you know a little more about the significance of the color black in art history and across several vastly different cultures, let's drill down into why you don't often see a black background on a website or black wallpaper on a cell phone or tablet.
Just like there are cultural and historical aspects of the color black to keep in mind, there are psychological reasons why people gravitate towards other colors. There's a Latin phrase tabula rasa that translates approximately to blank slate: it's a philosophical construct refined by John Locke in the 17th century that when we're born, our mind resembles a "white paper, void of all characters". A white background on a website is welcoming in the same way a sunrise is, or a fresh piece of journal paper or a clear sunrise. A black background, however, has a heaviness to it that can feel claustrophobic.
Beyond the psychological reasons, there are other valid concerns about using a black background on a website. Probably the number one practical reason people avoid a dark background is because it presents a lot of issues with readability. If you have a lot of verbiage or written content against a black background, it will be a real challenge for people to read.
However, there are plenty of reasons why betting on black can absolutely pay off. For starters, it can instantly help you stand out. In a sea of white websites, a black background will stand out. You just want to make sure it's standing out for the right reasons. Here are some tips and tricks for utilizing a black background to its best advantage:
- If your content is primarily driven by visuals, a black background can provide a sleek and sophisticated dark background for a gallery or portfolio. Your images will look luxe against a simple black plain background.
- Play around with gradients. Having your black background fade into a deep gray doesn't introduce much more lightness, but it immediately makes the black feel less cramped. It gives an illusion of light.
- Introduce a black texture background in order to add dimensionality. Our Trianglify background composed of abstract triangles in a black to gray gradient is a great example of a black background that really pops.
While black backgrounds might not be the obvious choice in web design, it has a surprising amount of flexibility and fun for the right project. We hope learning about the history and cultural significance of the color black, as well as its modern marketing applications, has inspired you to take a gamble and think outside the box in the future.
While Cool Backgrounds is a fine resource for generating images from popular javascript libraries, the real heavy lifting comes from the library authors themselves. When it comes to customer support, Quinn Rohlf from Trianglify.js is incredibly responsive and a really smart guy to boot. Particle.js is developed by Marc Brüderlin with a wonderful API and is being actively maintained. Gradient Topography is a newly minted project by me as a response to the amazing work by the Codrops crew. And of course Unsplash is one of the best internet treasures of all time, built by the former Crew team as a side project.
Oh yea and can't forget CSS Gradient and Rellax.js which is the "cool background" that powers those sliding parallax shapes in the content section of this site!

One of the biggest misconceptions about HPV is that it's not serious. While HPV may not have some of the alarming symptoms other STDs do, it's actually an infection that can have troublesome effects on your health.
Your doctor says you have ovarian cysts. What does that mean? Are you at risk for ovarian cancer? Can you still have a baby? Ovarian cysts are common, and most are harmless, but you should stay on top of them.

MUMBAI: Kangana Ranaut just can't stop being her outspoken self, can she? Kangana recently took shots at her contemporaries Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone.
The 'Queen' of Bollywood recently gave an interview in which she was quite critical of fairness creams (as she has been before) and stated that she did not support the ideology behind such advertisements. Kangana criticized her fellow actresses for endorsing such advertisements and stated that they subjected women to the image that they were less.
"It is very sad and I find it really humiliating cause we are a country of beautiful people. And women shouldn't be subjected to this kind of discrimination. It is sort of that they are being stripped off their confidence or self-worth by endorsement of such creams called fairness creams. I oppose it and I am very ashamed that many celebs propagate it and endorse it," said Kangana.
These statements can be attributed to Happy New Year actress Deepika Padukone and Phantom star Katrina Kaif. Whilst the former has endorsed Neutrogena fairness cream whilst Katrina Kaif is the brand ambassador of L'Oreal.
"It is painful to sit through something like that. But actors do that and many other models too. I feel we mustn't fall for such traps," she further said.
Kangana was also critical of the fact that these advertisements portrayed how brown-skinned girls' problems solved as soon as they applied fairness creams. These advertisements showed that not being fair is sort of an abomination, which annoyed her.
Kangana Ranaut is Bollywood's highest paid actress and is recently in Paris for the premiere of her movie Queen there. The actress was previously had been involved in a minor dispute with Deepika Padukone, which the two had solved when the former had been called up by the latter. However, mostly recently Kangana was miffed at Deepika, since the Tamasha actress had not responded to her special screening invitation of Tanu Weds Manu Returns.

Keep Your Edge
However, the days of performance management being centered on an annual review are over. Today's employees want regular feedback on how they're doing, if they're achieving appropriate milestones and if not, what support and training is available to progress their skills to ensure they not only receive the right rewards and recognition, but effectively contribute to their company's success and achieve personal growth goals.
Follow our five tips to create a more dynamic performance review process:
Banish bureaucracy – If your performance review process is a box-ticking exercise for HR, employees and managers won't connect it to increasing business value. Rather than concentrate on forms and process management, focus on conversations that promote productivity, boost morale and motivate employees to do their best. One way to make performance reviews relevant to all participants is by providing real-time feedback. When performance conversations happen in the moment, it gives employees information they need to improve – not an end of year report on whether they were a model corporate citizen.
Develop measures that matter – A robust performance review software solution can help employees correlate the work they do every day to how the company is delivering on its mission. This not only benefits employees by making sure their personal goals align with the organization's higher level goals, but it also helps them with career advancement. For example, if an employee wants to improve on team management skills, he or she can identify a goal that requires leading brainstorming and collaborative decision-making sessions or identifying and analyzing team member skills and delegating appropriate tasks. Employee motivation is crucial to performance, so communicating expectations and answering the question of "what's in it for me?" helps employees focus on priorities, understand how their work is meaningful and make better contributions.
Make it painless – Most managers aren't trained to manage and may struggle with coaching or giving difficult feedback. Or they may lack information to have productive performance conversations. Employees who don't receive regular feedback may have increased anxiety during review times because they don't have real insight into their performance or their manager's expectations. A performance management system not only helps document progress, but provides managers with detailed visibility into employee performance so they can identify and reward top performers or help struggling employees make adjustments to keep them on track for meeting goals.
Provide more feedback, faster – Smartphone ubiquity has changed the pace of communication. Workers are used to using tweets, emails, internal message boards and other social media to communicate instantly and performance conversations should happen that way as well. There isn't as much benefit from sitting across a conference room table rehashing a year-in-review synopsis or a list of should-do or must-do items. Companies can use online, mobile and social collaboration technologies to deliver frequent bursts of coaching and in-the-moment recognition for special achievements.
Get your game on – Performance review software should be fun to use. Compelling graphics, visual data presentation and even games can make using the solution fun while providing employees and managers with informative data at their fingertips. Entering some fun into business processes can ease the adoption curve and ensure technology gets used.
A dynamic performance review process can help organizations increase employee engagement, reduce turnover and inspire greater productivity and performance. Linking together the business strategy, personal and professional goals, and career path can support a performance process that provides greater learning opportunities and career control for employees while delivering value for the business.

The trip started with an early morning taxi pick-up for a myself and a friend, then a journey from my home town followed by a flight from Heathrow airport in London to Charles De Gaul airport in Paris, France. At the airport we waded though the crowds of tourists whilst searching for other people with 'Explore' tags on their suitcases; trying to establish who we would be spending the next 2 weeks with. The adventure began.
Gradually, I found some of the others on my trip as we boarded our next flight for Sao Paulo, Brazil. So far, so good. It looked like we were going to be in for a great trip.
20 hours later, and completely exhausted we arrived at Sao Paulo with enough time to run from one terminal to another to catch our final flight to Rio De Janeiro. I'd seen enough planes and airports to last me a lifetime (and it was still only the first day!!).
The flight from Sao Paulo to Rio De Janeiro was an experience. We were shuffled onto a small plane and were soon flying over our first sights of Rio. The plane banked around to land, which gave me my first view of Christ The Redeemer - Wow, the holiday has truly begun.
Once we were off the plane, we had our first opportunity to greet each other. Then as we all hauled our luggage through the security doors, we were met by our Tour Guide. I must admit, my expectations of a tour guide in Brazil would have been a very dark tanned Brazilian (and yes, I was hoping that she would be young, beautiful and single). So you can imagine my surprise to find a pure white, bald headed English guy with little round glasses (a true Adrian Edmonson lookalike).
Our first 2 days started with a glorious tour of Rio De Janeiro. The weather was perfect. Our first destination was Sugarloaf. We took a cable car to the summit and admired the scenery.
The sky was blue and the temperature was rising. So, this was Rio de Janeiro. As we looked behind us, we could clearly see the statue of Christ the Redeemer in the distance, and that was our next destination.
After a serious period of sensory overload, we returned to the bottom and jumped on a minibus to take us to Corcovado Mountain. We took a train to the top of the mountain. The views were mesmerising.
I cannot even begin to explain the emotions that ran through my body as I stood at the bottom of the statue of Christ the Redeemer and looked up at his face. It was so calming, so humbling, so inspiring. I looked around at the people who were stood near me, and was relieved to discover that I was not the only person with tears rolling down my cheeks.
The day was drawing to an end, the sun was setting. Most of our group returned to the hotel, but for four of us the experience was too great and we didn't want it to end. We decided to wait until the sun had set before we jumped back onto the train.
The sun finally set and we made our way back to the train and returned to our hotel. A word of warning for anybody who is thinking of travelling to Rio. Make sure when you are in a taxi, that you count out every note/coin when you pay the driver. I made the mistake of giving the driver several notes at once, he then proceeded to put one of them in his pocket and denied that I had paid him enough.
That evening we experienced the local food places. My goodness, the Brazilians do like their meat!!! We visited a restaurant where the waiters paraded around the room with cooked joints of meet on large poles. As they walked passed our tables they kept slicing large steaks onto our plates. We then realised that the brass plaque on the table (which we originally thought was a piece of decor) was in fact an stop/go indicator for the waiters. As soon as we slid the plaque to the stop position, our plates were left alone - Phew! I was almost about to explode. Next door there was a fish/seafood restaurant that was similar.
Well, so I thought..... ...then I was introduced to Iguacu Falls - surely most beautiful waterfalls in the World. The waterfalls lies on the point between Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil.
The ground beneath our feet was rumbling with the energy of the crashing water. Birds swooping overhead catching the many insects that buzzed around us. Then we saw it... Iguacu Falls in it's splendor. The first day was taken up walking around the Brazillian side of the falls. Awe inspiring, humbling, educational and of course...wet.
The next day we travelled to Argentina, where we had the opportunity to see the falls from the other side of the river - equally as inspiring. This time we were fortunate enough to be able to experience the falls from close up (so close in fact, that we actually went underneath). We all climbed on board the speedboat and put on our wet gear.
The journey, as you can imagine, was bumpy, wet and exciting. The atmosphere was electric, full of energy. The rocks all around us were glistening with mist. Our pilot steered us through the rapids, turning the boat in tight circles to ensure that we got drenched, then slowly steering us underneath one of the many waterfalls, to allow the water to pour down on us, before jetting back up the river. One the journey back to the shore, we all emptied our boots of water - all of us laughing hysterically. Surely the holiday couldn't get any better?
That night we had a more relaxing evening, preparing for our next step of the journey into the Pantanal.
Over the next couple of days we spent flying and travelling in a minibus on our way to our private lodge in the middle of the Pantanal. We had chosen the dry season to visit the Amazon, as some of the rivers had dried up and the water table was lower - this meant that the animals would be in richer density around the remaining rivers.Our minibus was full of birdwatchers, and I was becoming frustrated with the amount of occasions that we had to stop to look at a bird in the distance - they all looked like black dots to me. Then we saw our first caimen. WOW, it looked mean with big teeth and a sly smile. As we travelled further into the rain forest, the abundance of caimen was astonishing. There were thousands of them, all laying on the banks of the rivers.
Occasionally, a stork would brave a journey passed the hungry mouths of the caimen as it searched for it's own food source.We finally arrived at our lodge which was situated in a small clearing in the rain forest - and made our way to our own cabins. My cabin consisted of a small bathroom with a shower that would not meet even the lightest of safety regulations, a concrete slab as a bed and my own personal frog to catch any mosquitoes that made their way into the room.
The next day we climbed into our canoes and rowed through the undergrowth of the rivers to admire and experience one of the worlds most beautiful locations. Snakes, spiders, caimen, piranha, monkeys, tapir..... everything and anything. Once again the noises, the smells and the sights provided a complete sensory overload - everywhere I looked was a whole new experience. We continued through the evening until the sun had set and darkness fell. There was a brief period at dusk where the noise quietened. Then within a few minutes as the sun set, new noises started as the night animals and insects came alive.
(Click on the play button to view the clip I took whilst canoeing down the Amazon.)
The next day few days were spent exploring the area in canoes and on foot - Walking through the forests was amazing, there were crab shells all over the floor. This reminded us of how high the water table could be - the whole area was under water just a few weeks before.
A week later, we returned to civilisation and unsurprisingly back to the airport for another set of flights that took us to Manaus, the city in the middle of the Amazon rain forest. We landed at midnight and the temperature was over 30 degrees and almost 100% humidity. The minibus that collected us from the airport to take us to our hotel smelled of dampness. The hotel was small and very old, the walls were dripping with moisture. I made my way to my hotel room and collapsed into my bed (wondering what else was living in the bed). Luckily, it was only to be my home for one night. The next day we ventured out into the immense heat and humidity of the mid morning sunshine - there was a fish market just over the road from where we were and the smells were like nothing I had ever experienced before.
We soon made our way onto our mini-bus that took us on a journey to a boat that would provide some luxury for while. With cold beer on board, we enjoyed a relaxing 7hr journey up the amazon river with freshwater dolphins along side. With the breeze from the river blowing in our faces, we supped our drinks and admired yet another stunning sunset.
We arrived at our next lodge (this time a floating lodge) and were greeted with a local drink... an extremely alcoholic local drink that touched parts of me that I didn't even know existed. We were then shown to our rooms and then ate an amazing meal before retiring to bed.
The next day we had a very early start, so that we could be in our canoes before sunrise. This gave us to do some caimen spotting in the dark with our torches. The eyes of the caimen light up like cats eyes when you shine a torch in their direction. We also had to duck out of the way of the fish who were jumping out of the water all around us. As the sun came up we came to a stop and sat there in silence. Not moving, not talking, just savouring the moment... another moment that would never leave my heart.We returned to the floating lodge, this was the first time we had the opportunity to see it in daylight. Wow, what a sight!!!
Our final day in the Amazon gave us the opportunity to visit the local villagers who lived on floating boats along the riverside. It was extremely humbeling to see how the lived and it made me realise how lucky I really was and how superficial most of my worries were. Do I really need a new kitchen at home in England? How fortunate I am to know that my house flood during the next rainstorm?
Our Amazon trip was soon over, too quickly. Our tour took us from the heart of the Amazon to Brazillia, the modern city and capital of Brazil. What a contrast, a modern city with modern architecture and lots of money (and politics).
Finally we made our way to Salvador. Another bustling city, but much older archtecture. We had the oppoerunity to walk around the city and sample more local food and hospitality, but were soon in bed for a much needed sleep.
Our final day took us back to the airport, and a few more flights before we returned home to England. A group of strangers had become a group of friends. The experiences that we shared were going to be experiences that we would never forget.
On returning home and going back to work, my first task was to log onto the internet and start searching for my next amazing trip......

Adult Children as Caregivers: The changing picture of aging
People today live longer than ever before. Most of us will spend nearly one third of our life as "retirees" or "senior citizens." Four or even five-generation families are no longer unheard of.
But as we live longer, the chances grow that we will some day need help caring for ourselves. Today, many adult daughters and sons find themselves called upon to help care for their aging parents. The commitment they have to make may be for a short time or it may last for years. It changes the roles, responsibilities and feelings within the family and can be complicated and confusing.
Becoming a caregiver to parents involves major changes for all concerned – physically, emotionally, socially and financially. Learning to cope with the changes in a healthy way is important to ensure you and your aging parents can live in a mutually loving and giving relationship.
Below are ten things Adult children should keep in mind as they interact with their aging parents:
1. Over half of all people over 65 experience some hearing loss. If that's happening to your parents, try speaking in a slightly loud tone (but don't shout) and in a lower pitch, since high frequency sounds become harder to hear. Be careful to not drop off sounds at the end of a sentence and make sure you face your parent directly when speaking so they can see your lips and gestures.
2. Older adults should have a complete eye exam every 1-2 years. Speak with your parents regularly about their eyesight. If their sight is beginning to worsen, encourage them to try prescription reading glasses, large-print reading materials or magnifying aids.
3. More than one third of adults aged 65 years or older fall each year. If balance or strength is fading, make sure your parents tell their doctor and, if necessary, get the right kind of cane, walker or wheelchair. Also check their house for tripping hazards such as loose rugs or poorly placed extension cords and install grab bars and non-slip rubber mats in the tub or shower.
4. Arthritis can be managed. A doctor's treatment plan may include a combination of medication, weight management, range of motion exercises, and any number of methods to protect their joints from further damage. If your parents have trouble handling household items, adaptive equipment — such as wide holders for toothbrushes and pens and easier tops for pill containers — can be helpful.
5. Changing patterns in eating or sleeping — or a loss of interest in activities that once brought pleasure — can be signs of depression. Be sure to have these symptoms evaluated by your parent's physician.
6. Older people may continue to be very sharp mentally, but may have less ability to hold a lot of information in their minds at one time. For that reason it's a good idea to limit your statements to one idea at a time and to avoid jargon or technical terms (such as a computer speak), which may be common to your generation but foreign to theirs. When your parent is talking, be patient and don't interrupt. The first thing said may not be the most important thing on their mind, and once interrupted they may not return to the pressing issue.
7. Minor memory loss is normal. If your parent is dealing with some memory loss, keep questions simple and avoid multiple choices. Politely ask them to repeat back to you important information so you know that it has not only been heard, but has been understood as well. If you feel they have more than minor forgetfulness, make sure their doctor knows and can evaluate them further if necessary.
8. Alzheimer's disease or dementia both lead to a gradual decline in performing daily activities. If this is the case, children can help develop a familiar routine for their loved one, planning these routines around the times of the day when the parent is less confused or more cooperative. Caring for a person with Alzheimer's disease can become overwhelming, so find a support group where you can share your feelings and learn more about caring for a parent in this state.
9. There are caregiver options. Discuss with your parents and siblings your parents' caregiving needs. Find ways for each family member to provide support, and don't be shy about involving a geriatric care manager, clergy member or family counselor when their participation would be helpful.
10. It is important to have physicians with whom your parents are comfortable with and trust. It is also important to have a health plan that will best support your parent by providing health management programs and practical support services that don't drain the family financially and allow your parents to remain independent and in their own home as long as possible.
How to keep the quality in family relationships
Caring for an aging parent can be beneficial for the family. It can bridge the gaps among generations. Family support systems can be strengthened as members learn to prepare themselves for their own aging. How can you get the best out of this new relationship?
- Encourage without giving advice. Advice from adult sons and daughters is a tricky proposition and best avoided unless you are sure it has been asked for. It is generally better to let an outside person be the advisor.
- Accept differences of opinions, values, habits, likes and dislikes between you and your parents. There is often a "generation gap" between parents and children, regardless of how old they are. Respect these differences.
- Keep humor and fun alive in the family. A shared laugh can do wonders to ease tension, build closeness, and even improve health.
- Recognize that grandchildren and grandparents may have a special relationship. If neither has the burden of responsibility for the other, they are free to enjoy each other's company and share ideas and experiences.
What can you do for your parents?
Care-giving involves difficult decisions which should be handled with as much thought and discussion as possible. Do not jump into drastic changes, like having your parent move into your home, because you feel guilty or pressured, or as a "quick fix." Be realistic about your own abilities, desires and limitations, as well as those of your family members. Weigh the options carefully.
Consider these issues as you take on increased care of your parent:
- What can your parents reasonably expect from you?
- What can you reasonably expect from your parents?
- Listening is an important part of caring. Listen to your parents. You may be one of the few who does.
- Independence is key to mental and physical health. Encourage and support your parents' independence.
- Let your parents know about community services or assistance available to them so they can make informed choices for themselves.
- Encourage your parents to discuss sensitive issues, like disability, nursing homes, even dying, if and when they seem interested in such discussions.
- Learn what the legal system has to offer you and your parents. Options like a power of attorney may help to manage your parents' finances and their future.
What can you do for yourself?
To cope well, it helps to separate the "person" (your parent) from the "process" (normal aging).
Beware of stereotypes -both you and your parent need to be on guard against the myth that old age is an illness. This is far from true. Most seniors are well, active and mentally fit. Some changes normally occur as we age. For example, we experience a gradual need for more light, a decreased hearing range, changes in the sense of taste and smell, and a general decrease in the efficiency of the body's organs and systems. Adapting to these changes is easier once we understand them.
You may find yourself feeling trapped and guilty as you try to juggle the multiple demands, stresses and responsibilities of your new situation. This can threaten not only your health, but your marriage, job, relationship with your children, and financial security. Be on the lookout for signs of stress and burnout. Symptoms may include: depression, constant fatigue, poor concentration, hostility, low self-esteem and / or physical illness.
You may need to pay more attention to your own independence. Do not become too involved in your parents' day-to-day activities at the expense of your own independence. Talk to them honestly and confidently about your needs and feelings while listening to and respecting what they have to say about theirs.
Caregivers often lack role models. Joining a caregiver group where you can share ideas, information, concerns and support can be invaluable. A caregiver group can also help you develop skills such as assertiveness and stress management, and teach you how to express your feelings.
What if your parent becomes ill?
Although most older adults are well and active, some medical problems are more common in later years – illnesses such as heart disease, arthritis, cancer and dementia.
You can help by accepting the diagnosis, disheartening as this may be, and by acknowledging your parent's fears and anxiety about it. Denying the seriousness of the illness may block the communication that you and your parent need at this difficult time.
Mental health is as important for older adults as it is for everyone else. We all need self-esteem and a sense of independence. Depression is a risk of older age, particularly when one has suffered losses. Depression may be part of a physical illness or an effect of medication. As a family member, you may be able to spot signs of emotional, mental or behavioral change that point to depression. It can be treated successfully – do not settle for the excuse that "it's just old age."
Coping with a parent with dementia (such as Alzheimer's Disease) is one of the most difficult challenges one can face. It is vital to draw upon all support systems -professional and informal – to help you and your parent through the hardship. Knowledge and expertise in this field are increasing rapidly and can help you and your parent enjoy the best possible quality of life.
If, together, you decide a care facility is the best option, take the time to explore the choices, talk with staff, and involve your parent. Expect a period of adjustment to the change, for both of you. Try to avoid dwelling on feelings of guilt or failure; focus on the benefits of the new arrangement.
Giving your parent love and care is good for both of you. It is easier if you both take advantage of health, financial, legal, housing and recreational support services. Most communities have well developed services for older adults.
Do you need more help?
If you are dealing with aging parents and feel you need more assistance than friends and family can provide, contact a community organization, such as the Alvin A Dubin Alzheimer's Resource Center.

Luciano Spalletti wants his Inter Milan side to be "ferocious" in Saturday's Serie A clash against leaders Juventus, with both sides in desperate need of points.
Juve saw their advantage at the top of the table cut to a single point by Napoli last weekend, Kalidou Koulibaly heading home a last-minute winner in Turin.
Inter head into the game fifth in Serie A, a point outside the Champions League qualification places with four matches remaining.
And Spalletti, whose team have won their past two league games, is focused on his own side rather than being worried about a Juve reaction.
"Are they angry after the Napoli defeat? We must be ferocious," Spalletti told reporters on Friday. "I'm interested in what the three points mean for us, not denying Juventus three points.
"In order to have an efficient defence, you always need support from the attack and the team as a whole. I'm confident because the team's development in this period is clear.
"The match against Juventus will be very tough but we're ready to play for our objective of Champions League football in this final part of the season and I wouldn't have any issue with going to Lazio on the final day to fight for this goal.
"We have the chance to do something really important, we certainly can't hide. This is one of those matches where you must take responsibility and look to come up with the plays that make the difference.
"On the pitch, everything will have to be done in the right way, we'll need to be able to read different situations because Juventus know how to adapt very well at every moment."
Spalletti is concerned with Inter's strengths rather than Juventus' pursuit of an unprecedented seventh straight Scudetto.
"Juventus are a very strong team physically but we're not bad ourselves," the former Roma boss added. "From indirect set-pieces, we're level with them while they have something extra for direct free-kicks.
"This week, we trained well and I guarantee that we're absolutely ready to approach this match in the best of ways."


text: Share: Comments Print July 23, 2014 at 6:04 AM Huskies fall camp position preview: Offensive line Posted by Adam Jude Ben Riva (59) and Colin Tanigawa (64), protecting Keith Price (17), return for their senior season to lead the UW offensive line. (Dean Rutz/The Seattle Times) Fall camp begins for the Huskies on Aug. 4, and as we countdown to the start of Chris Petersen's first season at Washington, we'll preview each position on Monday, Wednesday and Friday leading up to the start of camp. TODAY: Offensive line WHO'S GONE: Backup Erik Kohler, who took a medical retirement in January, is the only lineman gone who played any sort of meaningful role last season . UW announced earlier this month that sophomore reserve Taylor Hindy was transferring. Otherwise, the starting unit returns intact. WHO'S BACK: Left tackle — Micah Hatchie, sr., 6-5, 301. Hatchie, an all-Pac-12 honorable-mention selection last year, missed all of spring ball while recovering from offseason surgery, but he's started 26 consecutive games for the Huskies at left tackle. Presuming he's back to full health, there's little reason to think the native of Haleiwa, Hawaii, won't be back there when the Huskies open the season at Hawaii on Aug. 30. — Jake Eldrenkamp, so., 6-5, 287. With Hatchie sidelined, Eldrenkamp was entrenched with the ones during the spring, and he held his own against UW's veteran defensive line. He figures to be next in line as the starter here in 2015, though Coleman Shelton might have something to say about that. — Coleman Shelton, rs-fr., 6-5, 280. Shelton, fiery and physical, was one of the young guys singled out by O-line coach Chris Stausser during spring ball. Left guard — Dexter Charles, jr., 6-5, 278. Perhaps the line's best NFL prospect, Charles earned all-Pac-12 honorable-mention honors as a sophomore, when he started 10 games at left guard. He missed three games with a shoulder injury that required offseason surgery. He then sat out spring ball, usually doing conditioning drills and running Husky Stadium stairs alongside Hatchie. Has started 21 games in his UW career, and he'll be entrenched there again this year. — Siosifa Tufunga, jr., 6-2, 305. With Charles out, Tufunga was a regular at left guard with the ones in the spring, emerging as one of the "breakout" players. Figures to be a solid reserve this season. — Michael Kneip, so., 6-5, 283 — Cory Fuavai, so., 6-3, 322 Center — Mike Criste, sr., 6-6, 318. Criste was solid and dependable in his first season as the starting center, starting every game and earning all-Pac-12 honorable mention. — Dane Crane, rs.-fr., 6-3, 300. Crane was another one of the young guys singled out by Strausser in the spring. Right guard — Colin Tanigawa, sr., 6-3, 275. Coming off major knee injuries in 2011 and 2012, Tanigawa was one of the team's pleasant surprises last season, starting all 13 games (the first 12 at right guard) while serving as a team captain. An intense competitor, he was tried out at center in the spring, though he figures to find himself back at right guard for his senior season. — James Atoe, sr., 6-7, 375. Versatile big man was a one of the most valuable reserves last season, and started at right guard in the Fight Hunger Bowl. — Shane Brostek, jr., 6-4, 287 Right tackle — Ben Riva, sr., 6-7, 313. The steady, heady senior, who will represent the Huskies at the Pac-12 media days Thursday, enters his third season as the primary right tackle. — Ross Dolbec, jr., 6-5, 304. Dolbec appeared in 11 games last season, and he figures to push for more playing time with the second unit this year. — Andrew Kirkland, rs-fr., 6-4, 302 WHO'S NEW: — Matt James, fr., 6-5, 270, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho — Jesse Sosebee, fr., 6-6, 300, Garden Grove, Calif. — John Turner, fr., 6-4, 275, Los Angeles OUTLOOK: After years of mediocrity, at best, there's hope that the offensive line could be a strength, if not the strength, of the UW offense this season. Again, all five starters return from a line that paved the way for Bishop Sankey's record-breaking rushing season, and there's quality depth behind them, too. One glaring weakness from last season that must be addressed: The Huskies allowed 30 sacks last season (or 2.31 per game), which ranked 88th in the nation. By comparison, under Stausser, Boise State allowed a combined 26 sacks — 26! — over 39 games in 2010, 2011 and 2012 (before allowing 26 last season, which, not coincidentally, was Boise's worst season of the Chris Petersen era). In those same three seasons (2010-12) UW allowed 96 sacks. It's fair to wonder how well a more mobile quarterback — ahem, Cyler Miles — will help that statistic; regardless, the sacks will no doubt be a point of emphasis for Stausser and the Huskies this season.

The devastating effects of the coffee leaf rust epidemic have reached different countries all over Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. Aside from thousands of people losing their jobs, coffee plantations end up losing millions of dollars.
Eliminating the harmful effects of this disease is not impossible. However, it is challenging. Recently, we released CR-10, which is a coffee rust control fungicide. a coffee rust treament… or even better: a coffee rust solution! The active ingredientl is designed to attack the fungi and get rid of the harmful effects of the rust to the coffee leaves.
- The CR-10 works faster compared to other fungicides
Eliminating coffee rust is our main goal. We want to help in saving the coffee plantations and somehow improving the commercial coffee economic status of the affected countries. Upon application, farmers can already see the effect of CR-10 on coffee rust after 48 hours.
- The CR-10 only requires 2 to 3 applications
This fungicide works faster and better. Therefore, it only takes 2 to 3 applications to work. According to our own research, farmers had to do 4 to 12 applications using other products. With the CR-10, you can save money on labor and get better results faster than other fungicides.
- The CR-10 is 100% Safe.
We always do our best to create products that are safe not only for us people but also to animals and to our environment. The CR-10 is 100% safe. It is biodegradable and non-toxic (when used at recommended dilution).
We made sure that our product is people friendly and environment-friendly as well. You have to make sure that you will use it at the level of dilution we recommend.

Video shows every oil pipeline spill in US since 1986
In effort to raise awareness about the human and environmental cost to oil pipeline spills and rally opposition to the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, a group called The Center for Biological Diversity put together this time lapse video documenting every significant oil pipeline spill in the US since 1986.
Here's how they describe the video:
This time-lapse video shows pipeline incidents from 1986 to 2013, relying on publicly available data from the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. Only incidents classified as "significant" by the agency are shown in the video. "Significant" incidents include those in which someone was hospitalized or killed, damages amounted to more than $50,000, more than 5 barrels of highly volatile substances or 50 barrels of other liquid were released, or where the liquid exploded or burned.
According to the data, since 1986 there have been nearly 8,000 incidents (nearly 300 per year on average), resulting in more than 500 deaths (red dots on the video), more than 2,300 injuries (yellow dots on the video), and nearly $7 billion in damage. Since 1986 pipeline accidents have spilled an average of 76,000 barrels per year or more than 3 million gallons. This is equivalent to 200 barrels every day.

Scrapbook News and Review Magazine has a wonderful monthly feature called Play Along With Me where staff members pick a tutorial from a recent issue and use it to create a new project. SNR staffer Lucy Chesna shared a tutorial about how to add 3D effects to photos. Lucy shared three different techniques in her tutorial and I really wanted to try them all! I usually use adhesive foam to raise fussy cut elements on my layouts, but I have never applied the same process to a photo. I cut pieces from several photos and used adhesive foam to assemble my photo pieces to create a multi-layered photo. The photo on the above layout has three layers. This technique was easy and fun and a great way to use up extra copies of my favorite photos. I also love the dimension it added to my layout!
If you love learning new techniques but are short on time, this feature is great to follow because you get two different inspiring projects using the same technique as well as design notes and helpful tips from two designers. If you don't have a subscription to SNR Magazine it's a great time to subscribe! There are several exciting things happening before the end of the year including a project-packed double issue that will be released in two parts, October 30th and November 13th! If you're looking for a special Christmas gift for a fellow scrapper, a subscription to SNR Magazine will be sure to put a smile on their face!

I'm trying to finish an article on the Philippines… it is the first time I'll be writing about OFWs … it's a history of the mall in the Philippines. It will take me too long to explain the connection.
This is a placeholder — Anthony Bourdain's essay on the Philippines. I don't know that he ever got to the bottom of why "Filipinos were so damn caring."
I will have to explain this later, but in short, because it's their job. That doesn't make it fake, truly caring is what makes the job bearable.

Auguste Rodin's "The Thinker," Thomas Crawford's "The Dying Chief Contemplating the Progress of Civilization," and a photograph by Alice Seeley Harris, "Father stares at the hand and foot of his five-year-old, severed as a punishment for failing to make the daily rubber quota, Belgian Congo, 1904"
The photograph is by Alice Seeley Harris, the man's name is Nsala. Here is part of her account (from the book "Don't Call Me Lady: The Journey of Lady Alice Seeley Harris"): He hadn't made his rubber quota for the day so the Belgian-appointed overseers had cut off his daughter's hand and foot. Her name was Boali. She was five years old. Then they killed her. But they weren't finished. Then they killed his wife too. And because that didn't seem quite cruel enough, quite strong enough to make their case, they cannibalized both Boali and her mother. And they presented Nsala with the tokens, the leftovers from the once living body of his darling child whom he so loved. His life was destroyed. They had partially destroyed it anyway by forcing his servitude but this act finished it for him. All of this filth had occurred because one man, one man who lived thousands of miles across the sea, one man who couldn't get rich enough, had decreed that this land was his and that these people should serve his own greed. Leopold had not given any thought to the idea that these African children, these men and women, were our fully human brothers, created equally by the same Hand that had created his own lineage of European Royalty.

One of the items on display at the Black Panther show at OMCA is this wicker fanback chair. Huey Newton was building up a sort of cultual iconology around American blackness. Perhaps it was intentional, perhaps it was not, but those chairs were often made in the Philippines. We had several in my house growing up. More on this soon.
Quoting at Length: Theodore Roosevelt on Corporations
April 11, 2016 § Leave a comment
The opposition to Government control of these great corporations makes its most effective effort in the shape of an appeal to the old doctrine of State's rights. Of course there are many sincere men who now believe in unrestricted individualism in business, just as there were formerly many sincere men who believed in slavery–that is, in the unrestricted right of an individual to own another individual. These men do not by themselves have great weight, however. The effective fight against adequate Government control and supervision of individual, and especially of corporate, wealth engaged in interstate business is chiefly done under cover; and especially under cover of an appeal to State's rights. It is not at all infrequent to read in the same speech a denunciation of predatory wealth fostered by special privilege and defiant of both the public welfare and law of the land, and a denunciation of centralization in the Central Government of the power to deal with this centralized and organized wealth. Of course the policy set forth in such twin denunciations amounts to absolutely nothing, for the first half is nullified by the second half. The chief reason, among the many sound and compelling reasons, that led to the formation of the National Government was the absolute need that the Union, and not the several States, should deal with interstate and foreign commerce; and the power to deal with interstate commerce was granted absolutely and plenarily to the Central Government and was exercised completely as regards the only instruments of interstate commerce known in those days–the waterways, the highroads, as well as the partnerships of individuals who then conducted all of what business there was. Interstate commerce is now chiefly conducted by railroads; and the great corporation has supplanted the mass of small partnerships or individuals. The proposal to make the National Government supreme over, and therefore to give it complete control over, the railroads and other instruments of interstate commerce is merely a proposal to carry out to the letter one of the prime purposes, if not the prime purpose, for which the Constitution was rounded. It does not represent centralization. It represents merely the acknowledgment of the patent fact that centralization has already come in business. If this irresponsible outside business power is to be controlled in the interest of the general public it can only be controlled in one way–by giving adequate power of control to the one sovereignty capable of exercising such power–the National Government. Forty or fifty separate state governments can not exercise that power over corporations doing business in most or all of them; first, because they absolutely lack the authority to deal with interstate business in any form; and second, because of the inevitable conflict of authority sure to arise in the effort to enforce different kinds of state regulation, often inconsistent with one another and sometimes oppressive in themselves. Such divided authority can not regulate commerce with wisdom and effect. The Central Government is the only power which, without oppression, can nevertheless thoroughly and adequately control and supervise the large corporations. To abandon the effort for National control means to abandon the effort for all adequate control and yet to render likely continual bursts of action by State legislatures, which can not achieve the purpose sought for, but which can do a great deal of damage to the corporation without conferring any real benefit on the public.

Paris: Bill Gayten's collection for John Galliano infuses classic art deco black and gold patterns with youthful pops of orange, purple, and fish underwater graphics. Outerwear makes a strong statement with floor dusting coats in bold colors and textured fabrics such as jacquard, fur, and astrakhan. Contrasting the floor length coats are mini dresses and skirts, which are outlined by scalloped edges covered in paillettes and sequins. Gold is infused throughout the collection through prints, lamé, knits, and jacquards in subtle accents as well as allover. Jewelry takes on an artistic flare with asymmetric and geometric wiry angles, placed stones and oversized shapes. –Jaclyn Jones

Our columnist and Julie Winkel put together a popular symposium to discuss various aspects of training and developing young hunters and jumpers.
When I sat down this past spring to write a column on the challenges facing the breeders, owners and trainers of young horses in North America I was only guessing at the interest there might be in the subject. A few weeks earlier Julie Winkel and I had decided to take a chance on offering a symposium on developing young hunters and jumpers.
With the opportunity to utilize her facilities and young horses at Maplewood Stables, along with the support of the Young Jumper Championships and the generous offer of any necessary underwriting by K.C. Kelley of Branscomb Farms, we went forward with planning. The only weekend that both Julie and I had open during the year was the rather inauspicious Thanksgiving one. Knowing the way horse people are when it comes to their passion we decided to go forward regardless, expecting a small gathering and a good learning experience with a new venture.
More than 50 participants—from 14 states and Canada—arrived the day after the holiday to Julie's beautiful facility in sunny but snowy Reno, Nev. They came from Alaska to Florida, the Northeast, Northwest, and all parts in between. Breeders, owners and professionals (both young and established) came to learn, share experience and discuss the future of this important segment of our industry.
Friday evening participants gathered at Julie's gorgeous home to go over the schedule for the jam-packed weekend. As we went around the room with introductions it became evident what a high level of knowledge and varied experience was present.
I was fortunate to have had some short videos prepared by horsewoman extraordinaire Pilar Cepeda of La Silla, in Monterrey, Mexico. This incredible operation has bred and trained an array of successful international competition horses over the last 20-plus years.
It set the tone for us to see footage of this year's Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games top-four finalist, HH Rebozo (formerly Rebozo La Silla), as he progressed from 3 to 6 years of age in Mexico. He then came to the United States to compete in YJC events with Candice King and eventually became Rodrigo Pessoa's WEG mount. Watching the many years of careful work and appropriate show ring mileage that goes into making even the most talented youngster made an ideal kick-off to the symposium.
Clinician Mindy Bower demonstrated the importance of groundwork and all-around good horsemanship in starting and training sport horses. She worked with horses 2 and 3 years of age and gave us a demonstration of how well behaved babies can be, even in a new, loud and invigorating environment, when they have had a real foundation
on the ground.
Riders took recently started 3-year-olds over small "courses" of ground poles, still in the rope halters that she prefers to start them with. We all saw why she's such an important part of the U.S. Hunter Jumper Association's Emerging Athletes Program. Many of the riders who are exposed to her horsemanship believe that this is one of the most valuable—and least explored—aspects of what makes a true horseman.
Sharing Techniques
On Saturday we watched and learned as Daniel Zilla, professional trainer and rider at Branscomb Farms in Half Moon Bay, Calif., demonstrated a variety of training techniques utilizing a free-jumping chute. It was clear how much more a horse is able to learn about balance, cleverness, confidence and concentration in a chute when the work is carefully and thoughtfully done with personnel who are knowledgeable and perceptive.
We also had video of free jumping in other facilities to see the possibilities for utilizing this type of schooling. It's not simply about seeing how big a horse can jump.
We did more ridden horses of different ages in the afternoon, and it was pleasant to see how stress-free jumping is to horses who have already learned a bit "how to learn" from the ground and that have a good idea what is expected from their free-jumping introduction. With a one-step-at-a time approach, the steps can proceed in a prompt and orderly fashion with most every youngster.
The long day wrapped up with a working dinner in the lounge. I took this opportunity to get discussion going on a new program that will be test marketed in Southern California beginning early in January (see sidebar). Getting ideas of what we can do to develop our horses in a more economical fashion seems critical in every area of the country.
So much discussion sprang from the day's activities that when we wrapped up I'm sure the participants were as glad to see a warm bed as I was. I doubt the lovely resort that played host to many of the participants made nearly as much off their casino as they might have hoped; the symposium kept everyone too busy!
On Sunday, Mindy had a young rider "back" a 2-year-old in a safe, kind and effective manner and explained how proper groundwork can be effective even in dealing with issues that come up with older horses. With the jumping portion we fit in a few horses readying for next year's shows.
Sunday also provided an informative live session on sport horse conformation presented by Julie, one of today's best-known experts on the topic. We also heard a concise and informative presentation by Faith Fessenden on what inspectors from the KWPN-NA and other breed registries look for at their various inspections. This is a topic that evolves continually and is of vital importance to breeders.
Finding The Right Specialist
The symposium reminded everyone of the myriad of specialties within even the hunter and jumper part of our sport. It's impossible for anyone to be a consummate expert on each and every aspect anymore. Whether it's riding and training grand prix horses, starting green colts, putting the long, slow rides on youngsters, introducing them to the show ring, dealing with difficult or poorly started horses, or teaching a novice rider to ride safely and confidently, there are people out there who have made that one area their specialty and do it extremely well.
Depending on the needs of the horse, rider or owner at a particular point, the right specialist is likely to get a better result with less wear and tear on everyone than going to a generalist or to a specialist in the wrong area.
The problem in North America right now is that it can be difficult to locate the young horse specialists in a given area since they receive so little "exposure" compared with the horse showing pros. Given the geographic area we contend with this is no easy problem to address, even though it's crucial to filling the gaps in the essential continuum from breeder to successful competition horse. Various committees grapple with the issue, but definitive answers have yet to be identified.
The first symposium on young horse training and development wrapped up with a delicious dinner at the host hotel. It seemed that everyone enjoyed the opportunity to learn, network and discuss mutual issues that face everyone with a love of young horses. Regardless of where participants came from, geographically or in terms of current position within the sport (owner, breeder, professional, amateur or junior), they urged us to do more of this sort of thing, both at Julie's again and in other regions of the country—and to figure out how to fit even more topics into the schedule.
On a personal note, it was gratifying to see the response to the symposium and to be able to connect with so many old friends and colleagues, as well as to meet so many fellow lovers of the sport and especially the aspect of it concerned with developing our horses. I cannot thank enough Julie Winkel, Cheryl Frank at the YJC office, K.C. Kelley, and all those who worked on and attended the symposium.
All those months ago when I guessed at the interest out there it turned out I was wrong—there was way more than even I thought. Plans are underway to do more.
The Benchmark Program
The common refrain from breeders, owners and professionals alike is the cost involved in taking horses from the just-getting-started stage up to being marketable, competition-ready sport horses. Once a horse reaches the point of needing to leave the stable and get that crucial "mileage" away from home—such a critical issue to the average buyer looking for a potential purchase—the costs of maintaining the horse skyrocket.
Unlike European countries where a whole host of different systems have been developed to provide good, inexpensive one-day venues for achieving the sort of experience that takes the horses to the next step, most areas of our country leave trainers with only three choices: 1) keep the horses at home and have vastly diminished opportunities for the horses to continue on or to sell; 2) go to inexpensive schooling shows that seldom provide the sort of experience to prepare them for higher levels of competition and offer little or no marketing exposure; or 3) invest the money that is involved in going to the larger shows and hope that the horse will sell for a price that justifies the investment.
None of these options are inviting ones, especially in today's economy, for those with more horses than available funds to spend on showing them.
In trying to devise a solution to the situation the idea for The Benchmark Program evolved. The key points it tries to address are: 1) reasonable cost in terms of both time and money to attend; 2) emphasis on good mileage (courses) for younger/novice horses (or riders) which includes opportunities to get back onto the course to fix problems and build confidence; 3) opportunity to obtain a verifiable performance record for use in marketing or as a marker for individual goals; and 4) creation of marketing venues for people to go to see what's available for sale in the area in a relaxed, non-competitive environment.
The first Benchmark Rally was held on Jan. 9 at El Sueño in Somis, Calif. This excellent venue will host three more rallies during the year, and it's possible that a limited number of other geographic areas might "test-drive" the concept this year.

Allows you to share a dial-up or broadband Internet connection between wired or wireless users.
You can't automatically switch between a dial-up or broadband connection. Lacks support for seamless "dial on demand."
Bottom Line
This is a great product for those who cannot get broadband and want to share a dial-up connectionespecially those who'd like to have a wireless network.
Until now, if you were a dial-up Internet user and wanted to share your Internet connection, your choices were limitedespecially if you were interested in having a wireless network. At the very least, you'd have to cobble together several pieces of hardware. Not anymore.
The WiFlyer, from Always On Wireless, is an 802.11b wireless router that lets you share either your broadband connection or your dial-up connection. It has both a built-in modem and a wide area network (WAN) port for connecting to the Internet. There's also a local area network (LAN) port for connecting a system via Ethernet cable.
When you first connect your computer to the WiFlyer (either wired or wirelessly), your first Web page request is redirected to the WiFlyer's home page. The home page gives you the option of choosing either a broadband connection or a dial-up connection. If you select dial-up, you can configure your account information, dialing preferences (call waiting disable, outside access number, and so on) and inactivity timer. For AOL, EarthLink, and MSN subscribers, there's a built-in list of access numbers that's searchable by state or area code.
When you click on the Connect button, your modem dials and connects to your ISP. A built-in speaker, with a volume control, lets you hear the modem tones if you so choose. Once connected, a status page shows your connection speed and redirects you to a portal page for the Internet.
The built-in router features port filtering, a DMZ, and up to ten virtual server assignments, as well as port triggering for gamers. Wireless security was taken seriously with the WiFlyer and includes 64/128-bit WEP, WPA-PSK, SSID Broadcast disable, and the ability to deny unencrypted data. There is also a 16-entry MAC address allow list.
Though the WiFlyer does solve the problem of sharing a dial-up connection with both wired and wireless clients, there is room for improvement. For instance, we were disappointed with the lack of dialing automation. For example, if your dial-up connection isn't established, has timed out, or has been cut off when you make a Web page request, you are redirected to the dial-up connect page and have to click on Dial Now!. And changing from a dial-up to a broadband connection isn't automatic, either. While you most likely won't be changing connection types often (unless you are planning to use the product for travel), you do have to load different firmware by clicking on a button and changing your connection type.
But these are minor nits. All told, the WiFlyer is a welcome convenience for dial-up users who have watched the wireless parade pass them by.
