The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) has declared May to be National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month. May is a peak season for asthma and allergy sufferers — and a perfect time to educate your population on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle with asthma and allergies. Nearly 25 million people, or 8 percent of the U.S. population, are affected by asthma.1 And more than 50 million people suffer from various types of allergies.2
The high cost associated with asthma and allergies
Every year, asthma costs the United States $56 billion in medical expenses, missed school and work days, and early deaths.1 The average cost per person with asthma is about $3,300 each year.1 On average, asthma contributes to four missed school days per child and five missed work days per adult.1 The cost of allergies to the U.S. health care system and businesses has been estimated to be $7.9 billion.3
According to the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, "Education is an important component of outreach for the prevention and control of allergen-induced diseases."4
Our wellness programs can help support you and your population
AmeriHealth Administrators' health and wellness programs can help your bottom line by promoting positive behavioral changes through education and awareness. Our people, tools, and educational resources can help you support optimal health for your population.

I just returned from a camping trip with my brother and his family. It was at one of those family RV resorts, where everyone is parked next to each other, row after row. There were activities galore all weekend long, and lots of happy couples, excited kids, proud grandparents, and me.
Well, that's how it felt most of the time. I'm sure that to everyone one else, I was just one of hundreds of fathers, looking after their kids, and having a good time. I'm sure that they all figured my wife was back at the campsite, busy with her share of the activities, while I was supervising the boys. It's funny how we can feel so different from the others in such a crowd. It can feel so isolating.
I kept looking around, and didn't see many, if at all, single, or only, parents. I also didn't see a soul that looked like a gay parent. Just your run of the mill, cookie cutter, happy heterosexual couples, with their happy vacationing kids. You know, I'm the first to admit that I tend to easily fall into the trap of visualizing myself as someone on the outside looking in. It's easy to do, as I have had plenty of opportunities over the years to feel like someone on the outside looking in.
This weekend I didn't feel overly sad, even in the midst of all the joyous families. It felt like more of a reminder that I need to remain open to being back in the land of the living, and to visualize myself being one, as in one couple, among them. I know that for many that read here, the thought of being with another potential partner, or spouse, is something that seems unlikely, or odd. For me, I always expected that the day would come that I would need to be ready to move toward that part of this journey where new love might be an option.
This is something that Michael and I had plenty of time to think about, and to talk about. He always said he wanted me to find new love. He often made reference to my future boyfriend, or spouse, in our conversations. I think it was his way to make me comfortable with the idea. Lately, I have begun to feel that it is time to be open to this. For about the past six months I have had an ad on Match.com, but it was really something to help me make new friends. And, for the most part, it didn't work. I truly believe that it didn't work because it wasn't the right time for me. Being that I am gay, there is always the possibility that any new male friend that comes into my life could later develop into a new romantic partner. So, for that reason I didn't put much effort at all into meeting new guys.
Something is beginning to change. In the last couple of weeks I have suddenly become quite popular on Match.com. I have several guys writing to me, and trying to get an idea of what I am like. We are now at that point where you start discussing the possibility of getting together for coffee. I'm always so quick to tell new men that I meet that I am looking strictly for something platonic. That way I felt safe, and that I could perhaps have less pressure, or expectations, from the other guy about the possibility of romance.
With this new surge of interest, I'm feeling like someone is telling me it's time to take this step. I can't help but think that Michael has a hand in this. I'm not one who entertains the idea that the dead can reach out, and interact with the living. But, if they have some influence in this world, or in our lives, then I can say that I am definitely feeling Michael's energy these days. I keep visualizing his smiling face, and a wink in his eye. I keep visualizing him trying to convey to me that I need to get out of the house, and on with my life. I keep visualizing him trying to communicate this to me, reminding me that I am still young, and that I could use a good tire rotation now and then.
Maybe it's just me. I'm allowing myself to visualize a change. Perhaps I'm now sending out a new vibe that I am ready, and maybe, just maybe, I am beginning to see the possibility that I could once again find myself with somebody else, somebody new.
I am visualizing change.

Uganda Wildlife Education Centre (UWEC) remains an integral part of Uganda's tourism sector. In fact it is what one would call a beginners start point to discovering Uganda rich history and biodiversity. Many Ugandans have had their first tourism experience with a trip to Uganda Wildlife Education Centre which is located in Entebbe, Wakiso district.
UWEC was founded in 1952 as an orphanage for wild animals, birds and reptiles
The expansive centre which was found in 1952 for conservation purpose is home to different animals, Birds and reptiles. Perhaps it is most famous for bringing lions, cheetahs, hynas, leopards, elephants closer to human being than they would in the wild.
Over the weekend, Experience Africa, a local tour operator in Eastern Africa, sponsored a number of bloggers with a trip to the historical centre to have a firsthand relationship with the most prized residents of the centre. We bring some catchy images from the trip.
At the centre you can learn about different wildlife history

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux: a Short-Lived Marriage
Two years of marriage and NOT counting… Ever since rumors surfaced about a love affair between Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston back in 2015, we thought they were perfect for each other. And then, when they tied the knot, we were so sure they'll have a happy and long marriage. It turns out we were completely wrong. The Hollywood celebs didn't inform us about the reason of the split. They simply said that the decision was "lovingly" made.
Here's what the pair said in a joint statement: "We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple, but look forward to continuing our cherished friendship. Normally we would do this privately, but given that the gossip industry cannot resist an opportunity to speculate and invent, we wanted to convey the truth directly." They then added the following: "Above all, we are determined to maintain the deep respect and love that we have for one another".
Well, at least it didn't end disastrously like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's marriage…

It was a high school assignment about a local industry that led Tom Belford into winemaking. His dad drove him to Domaine Chandon in the Yarra Valley. Tom remembered all the details he learnt, and terms like lees and triage, and found writing the assignment came naturally. He never wanted to be anything other than a winemaker after that. Besides his dad, Tom says his wife Sally is the greatest influence on his winemaking, "She's taught me to do it your own way". - Tom Belford, Sticks Winemaker.The fruit for this wine is sourced from a select group of growers in the Yarra Valley.

The Planets
The planets are one of the first targets for every beginner amateur astronomer. Indeed, we get to see our own every day, but five others, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, could be easily seen with naked eye. Technically, Uranus could be also seen with naked eyes, since it's just below 6-th magnitude – the limiting magnitude for most of us. These are among the brightest objects on the sky, so they are not hard to find.
Conjugations and sceneries of planets
Camera with regular focal length lens (~50 mm) mounted on a tripod can be used to capture the scenery plus some stars around the planet (see photo above). Also, such setup could be very handy during planet conjugations.
Close-up views
If you want to see or capture more of the planet you're looking at, you will need a telescope. Some additional magnification of your system is likely to be required. The different types of optical magnifications (Barlow lens, eyepiece, etc.) will be discussed separately. No matter what kind of optical system and detector you are using, you have to know how large your target would be on your images (in the focal plane). To calculate planet's size in your detector use this simple equation:
d = a x F / 206,265
where d is the resultant size of the planet in mm, a is the angular diameter of the planet in arc sec and F the effective focal length of your optical system in mm. You can find the current angular size of the target planet in an almanac, online or using some planetarium software.
Getting an image of a planet through a telescope, especially when using some sort of optical magnification, could be tricky. For a start, you will need a decent size telescope, at least 6″ (150 mm), and a sturdy motor driven mount. Not that it's impossible to use a telescope with a diameter less than 6″ (see my Saturn example below). If that's what you have go for it; you could definitely get some decent images. However, some of the nice details would be lost due to poor resolution. In addition, your system would lack light collecting power, thus requiring longer exposure times leading to fuzzier images (lost details), because of turbulence, vibrations, etc.
After you have settled on an optical system, decide what kind of detector you will use. You have three general choices here – CCD, web or a regular camera. The best results could be achieved by web camera and stacking software. More on that latter. If you don't have one, use what you already have. There will be a separate page discussing in greater details these three detectors. Here, I'll just give you a brief overview.
- CCD cameras. With such cameras you would need to get at least three frames in different filters to get a color image.
- Web cameras. They have proven themselves to be the best choice for planetary photography for amateurs. Granted, you would need software to process and "stack" your frames to get an image, but it's definitely worth it.
- Regular cameras. These could be two types:
- Film cameras. Depending on your magnification and therefore required exposure time, stick within the 100-400 ISO range. For all my photos I seldom had to take exposures more than 10 sec. The shorter your exposure time, the better.
- Digital cameras. The ISO range is similar to the film cameras, but please do experiment to find what would fit you best. Digital cameras do a better job in "collecting" photons.
The following images of Saturn were taken with different telescopes. Also, one was taken with a film, and the other with a digital camera. See the following section for more details.
Other essentials that you may need to have can be found on my Observing tips post.
About the photos on this page
Top. This is a photo of the twilight plus Venus, taken with a 50 mm lens and a film camera (ISO 200), several seconds exposure time.
Mars. Taken with a Celestron C8, D = 203 mm, effective focal length F ~ 10,000 mm, film camera, ISO 200, 5 sec exposure time.
Jupiter. Taken with a Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope D = 150 mm, effective focal length F ~ 22,500 mm, ISO 100, 6 sec exposure time.
Saturn left. Taken with a Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope D = 150 mm, effective focal length F ~ 22,500 mm, ISO 100, 12 sec exposure time.
Saturn right. Taken with D = 63 mm (less than 2.5 inches!!!), F = 840 mm, digital point-and-shoot camera (but a decent one) attached after the eyepiece. Effective focal length F ~ 2,000 mm, exposure time 1/13 sec, ISO 100. Keep in mind that the crop factor would be very different from a regular film camera or even a DSLR.
Digital vs. film cameras
My Saturn experiments (see pictures above) are in favor of the digital cameras. As you can see, with proper settings you could get better images with a 2.5″ (2.48″ if we have to be precise) telescope than a 6″ one. You should realize that the actual resultant size, in mm, of the planet in the focal plane of my system is much larger in the film camera setup. However, the biggest problem is the longer exposure time of 12 sec (vs. 1/13 sec in the digital setup). This allows turbulence, vibrations and imperfection in the guiding system to blur the image, thus "robbing" it of its resolution.
As a conclusion, aim for exposures of no more than several seconds and play with your magnification system to get optimal, for your telescope, results.

A former Minister of Works, Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe had raised the alarm, warning that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) might lose elections in Lagos without coordination.
Ogunlewe, in a viral social media post, said: "To all Members of Global Mandate, we have a big problem in PDP Lagos state. There are three campaign teams; we have 207, We have 112, we have the Party Secretariat. What do you suggest we must do? The main objective is to win the elections. Without coordination, we may labour in vain".
Ogunlewe, who spoke with our correspondent, expressed concerns that the lack of harmony in the campaign structure may precipitate defeat for the party.
According to him, there were three campaign structures in the state including the Presidential campaign for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, that of the party's governorship candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, as well as the party's campaign team, all working at cross purposes.
He pointed out that the current disharmony stemmed from the disagreements over the outcome of the party's primaries as well as the Presidential primaries held in Port Harcourt, Rivers state, saying many party members were still aggrieved.
Ogunlewe however stressed the need for all party members to forget the past, reunite in the interest of the party.
"We can win this election but there must be unity. I am an elderly man, I have been a Minister, I have been a Senator, I am not contesting any election. If I see something that is going wrong and I didn't speak out, I would be a fool. We need to harmonize the campaign structure. I am appealing to the leadership to work together".
But the Chairman, Lagos Legacy Group for Atiku, Dayo Williams, insists there is no division in Lagos PDP, saying Senator Ogunlewe's alarm has no basis.
In a statement, he said, "Let it be known that there is no divided house in Lagos PDP. Any attempt to input a sense of disharmony in our party is untrue, false without foundation.
"Senator Ogunlewe's alarm is without concrete evidence, devoid of logic, virtually without a modicum of goodwill.
"As a loyal member of PDP from Amuwo Odofin and as a Lawyer with over 35 years experience, I can always tell when fifth columnists are bent on destroying our party's unity.
"It is an established fact that the PDP Presidential Council has been collapsed into one uniform platform.
"This is the time everyone should be on-board. We must all work together to achieve our destined goal. Senator Ogunlewe must choose where he belongs.
"We do not and must not fling our issues into the public forum. That is a none starter. We must work together without malice or deliberate misrepresentation."

Hi everyone! Been awhile since I've put anything on the ol' blog site but honestly, none of the comics out there right now are really compelling me to write!. I've decided to go back through my personal stash and read some of my favorites – some you may not have heard of, and some you most definitely have heard of! In either case it's important to not forget the glory of a good story, no matter how old (or far back into the closet) they are. So with out further ado, welcome to my new series: Good Comics That You're Not Reading!
With Halloween just around the corner, I've decided to dig up some supernatural stories of yore to get in the mood. While in pursuit of a story, I came across an old Marvel classic on the new-release shelf: Triumph and Torment.
This is actually a reprint of an 80-page story first published back in 1989 by Roger Stern, with art by Mike Mignola (creator and illustrator of Hellboy) and Mark Badger. I can't deny the rush of excitement that I felt when I saw this as a trade. Growing up, this story was kind of like an urban legend amongst my comic book friends- we had heard stories of this comic, but none of us had ever actually seen it! I grew up reading Batman: Gotham By Gaslight (over and over) and fell in love with Mignola's dark, gritty take on Victorian Gotham, and I could only imagine how he used his art to interpret the characters from the Marvel Universe. I didn't even really know what the story was about – all I knew was that it involved Dr. Strange and Dr. Doom on a road trip to Hell to fight the Devil. SOLD.
Let me tell you: even after all the years of hype build up in my head, this story delivers. We are treated to back-stories of both Dr. Strange AND Dr. Doom; contests in sorcery; betrayal; and, finally, salvation. Without a doubt, this is a character study of Dr. Doom, with Strange just along for the ride. Mignola's art with Badger's colors bring to life a dark and heart-breakingly beautiful examination of the villain's past.
As a continuation from an issue of Astonishing Tales #4 (by Gerry Conway and Gene Colan), this story tells us about the driving forces behind Victor Von Doom. We learn that every Mid-Summers Eve, Von Doom prepares himself to battle with the forces of hell. His aim is not to accrue demonic power and control the world (though that would be a nice bonus); his real intention is to free the spirit of his beloved Mother. That's right – Mommy Von Doom! Who knew the Tin Man had a heart? (Sidebar: Mignola's art is at its best in the moment in which Cynthia Von Doom loses her soul to Mephisto. The art puts you inside Doom's mind, forever replaying this fall from grace. I won't give away what Cynthia did to end up in the Devil's pocket – but the art tastefully handles the horror of her realization.)
Despite Von Doom's power and intellect, the forces of darkness holding his mother's soul captive are just too powerful for him year after year, and the project ends in an annual stalemate. His ambition does not falter; he is SO focused on freeing his mother that he actually (briefly) considers swallowing his pride and asking Dr. Strange if he needs a ward, so that he may learn the secrets of the talented sorcerer. Of course, that plan would require Von Doom to admit that someone out there in the world is better than him.
With that option ruled out, Triumph and Torment focuses on Von Doom traveling around the world to gain enough knowledge and power to combat the darkness. Eventually, he reaches Tibet, were he encounters the Ancient One, an old man with supreme knowledge and powers of sorcery. However, Von Doom is deemed unworthy to train with him and must move on to find another teacher. In those mountains, Victor Von Doom encases himself in armor and becomes Dr. Doom. (Stern does a nice job here of reminding readers what led Doom to this path, as well as introducing the uninitiated.)
Out of options, the new self-proclaimed Dr. Doom forms a desperate alliance with Stephen Strange. That unlikely combination begins with a tournament designed to bestow the title of "Sorcerer Supreme" on the winner and a boon (whatever the hell that is!) on the runner-up. Those with magical powers from all over the world come to participate in this contest, including – to everyone's dismay – Dr. Doom (think of him as the Uncle Buck of Marvel's wizards and sorcerers). Shocker: Dr. Strange wins the title, but don't worry – the runner-up prize goes to Dr. Doom (now think Cool Runnings). As the newly appointed Sorcerer Supreme, Dr. Strange must present the boon to Dr. Doom; in this case, he must aid Doom in his quest to free his mother from Hell. Thus their crazy, wacky, polar-opposite-buddy-comedy road trip to hell begins! (And finally, think Planes, Trains and Automobiles.)
We are shown throughout how the Doctors Strange and Doom, hero and villain, share so much in common. As the story develops through flashbacks, we see how Strange and Doom have walked a similar path. We learn that both were men of science who, through their arrogance, each suffer a tragedy that physically alters them. They each travel the world to right the wrongs that have been inflicted upon them, and to avenge their father-figures who, in their own unique ways, were both healers.
The story offers plenty of hair-raising moments in Hell, with beautifully gothic art from Mignola and excellent story-telling from Stern. In only 80 pages, we have excellent moments of character, great trials, and tests of will. Most importantly, we are forced to reevaluate Dr. Doom. Stern has added complexity to the supervillan, which makes him more interesting and allows the character to stand the test of time. And apparently I can't help but think he's the John Candy of the Marvel Universe. Now that's a scary thought.

These Japanese Style Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Will Blow Your Mind
Some genius got the idea to replace the bread in a grilled cheese sandwich with -- you guessed it -- rice patties. In our book, any time a grilled cheese sandwich pairs up with sushi, it must be a sign that we're all in heaven.
Yep, pretty sure we're in heaven right this minute.
In the video above, you can watch how one of these divine creations is made. You'll likely be amazed by the simplicity of it. All you have to do is mix up some sushi rice, form a couple square patties with it (or circular ones if you're a trailblazer like that), refrigerate, pat with butter and you've got the building blocks of a Japanese grilled cheese.
As an added bonus, these sammies are gluten-free. So no more gnawing on crappy, knock-off bread loaves, OK celiacs?
Watch the video above for the full low-down on how to make one of these bad boys yourself and just try to go back to a regular grilled cheese after it blows your mind.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Investors searching for growth continued to chase Baidu.com BIDU, -1.30% shares higher Thursday, after China's No. 1 search giant showed that it could maintain its market edge while not losing its shirt.
Baidu, known by some as the Google of China, saw its shares rise better than 6% to more than $88 in morning action -- the second consecutive day of sizable gains, following on the release of first-quarter finanancial results late Tuesday. The shares stood at levels nearly three times their IPO price of $27 last year.
Investor enthusiasm is partly due to Baidu's healthy lead in its home market over search giant Google GOOG, -0.08%, which dominates the world's search markets. Baidu has grown to close to 60% of search queries, giving the company a more dominant position in China than Google, noted Safa Rashtchy, analyst at Piper Jaffray.
Also Thursday, Google executives overseeing the search giant's international operations said that the China market was still nascent. They were responding to a question regarding how much Google was investing in China and how the company planned on closing the gap with Baidu.
Separately, Google executives, who hosted journalists and analysts at the search engine's press day on Thursday, also unveiled several products, including Google Co-op. While some Wall Street analysts saw Google's new product launches as underwhelming, Google CEO Eric Schmidt said that he was most excited about Google Co-op if he had to choose among the products launched in the last year, including Google Video and Finance.
See Net Sense: Google embraces community search.
Schmidt also said that Google was testing out advertising on mobile phones. When asked whether Google was building out AdWords for video or whether AdWords would work for video, Schmidt said that if someone invented AdWords for video, Google might test it out.
Google's shares lost ground, caught up in the broader market's pullback.
Meanwhile, Research In Motion Ltd. RIMM, the maker of the popular BlackBerry e-mail handheld, said that China Mobile Communications CHL, -1.43% plans to offer BlackBerry on the mainland.
RIM and China Mobile will initially focus on supporting multinational corporations with operations in China. China Mobile will soon offer BlackBerry service nationwide and provide subscriber-identity-module cards to support BlackBerry service.
RIM's shares sank less than 1%.
Rounding out trading in Internet stocks, Yahoo YHOO lost nearly 1% to $31.79. Next week, Yahoo holds its annual analyst day.
Palm Inc. PALM, -2.56% shares rose modestly to just over $22. The maker of the popular Treo is expected to announce the availability of the Treo 700, a smart phone that runs on one of the fastest phone networks currently available, paired with a Palm operating system.
They're back
Kevin Ryan, who founded DoubleClick, an Internet advertising agency, has recently launched a new service. Ryan's service is called Shopwiki, and it competes with all the comparison-search engines out there today, such as Become.com, Froogle and Shopping.com, which is owned by eBay EBAY, -0.83%.
Ryan said his service is more helpful as a search engine because his index of goods is larger than that of the other services.

Joseph Patrick "Joey" Jones (born 4 March 1955 in Bangor, Gwynedd) is a former Wales international football full-back who played for Liverpool for three seasons, including the 1977 season, in which they chased the "the European Treble".
In 1977 left back Jones was part of the team which won the League championship and reached the finals of the FA Cup and European Cup.
The treble, unprecedented in English football, was not forthcoming. Liverpool lost 2-1 in the FA Cup final at Wembley to Manchester United, though Jones supplied the accurate long pass for Jimmy Case to score Liverpool's goal. However, they won their first European Cup in Rome three days later, defeating Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-1.
Jones joined Wrexham, along with Mickey Thomas, straight from school as an apprentice in 1971. They doubled up as ground staff, as well as doing the normal apprentice roles, including cleaning the professionals boots, and were paid the princely sum of £8 per week, a fiver of which went on their lodgings.
He made his debut at the age of 17 in a Welsh Cup tie against local rivals Chester City; Wrexham lost 1-0. He did, however, win the Welsh Cup with the club in 1975, when they beat Cardiff City in the final. Jones established himself as a right-back and helped Wrexham to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup in 1974, the first time the club had reached the that stage of the prestigious competition. Ironically, it was Liverpool that went on to win the trophy defeating Newcastle United comfortably 3-0.
Jones left Wrexham to join his boyhood heroes, Liverpool (he has a Liverbird tattooed on his forearm), when Bob Paisley paid £110,000 for his services in July 1975. He made his debut on 16 August in a 2-0 league defeat to Queens Park Rangers at Loftus Road. He spent much of his first season in the reserves, not quite flirting with first team appearances enough to earn a medal when Liverpool won the 1976 championship, and was watching from the sidelines as his team-mates then secured the UEFA Cup.
Joey made his Wales debut in November 1975 against Austria. He went on to win what was then a record of 72 caps, scoring 3 times.
The following year, however, was Jones' big season of establishing himself. With Liverpool chasing the treble, he also scored his first goal for the club on 9 November 1976 in the 5-1 league thrashing of Leicester City at Anfield. A memorable banner was unfurled by Liverpool supporters at the European Cup final in Rome which said "Joey Ate The Frogs Legs, Made The Swiss Roll, Now He's Munching Gladbach".
Jones was in and out of the side the following year, with the renaissance of Tommy Smith and the emergence of young Scottish defender Alan Hansen severely reducing his necessity to the team to the extent that he left in the summer of 1978. After exactly 100 appearances and 3 goals for the Reds, he returned to Wrexham for £210,000 (a club record as of December 2006), £100,000 more than Liverpool had paid for him.
In 1982, Jones joined Chelsea for £34,000, signed by the manager who had given him his professional debut, John Neal. Jones' Chelsea career got off to a slow start; he was booed by his own fans and sent-off on his debut against Carlisle United at Brunton Park on 30 October 1982. However, Jones' committed attitude and pre-match fist-clenching ritual eventually made him a cult hero among the fans. He also proved instrumental in Chelsea's successful battle to avoid relegation to the Third Division, culminating in him being voted the club's Player of the Year at the end of his first season.
The Chelsea team was re-built by Neal over the summer, with the likes of David Speedie, Kerry Dixon, Pat Nevin and Mickey Thomas arriving, and Jones was a part of the side which romped to promotion as Second Division champions in 1983-84. He remained with the club in the top flight for one more season, before surprisingly being sold to Huddersfield Town for £35,000 in August 1985. He finished his Chelsea career with 91 appearances and 2 goals to his name.
He retired at the age of 37.
Jones underwent heart surgery in 2002 and has since scaled down his commitments with Wrexham, he works as the Under 18's and Reserve team coach. In 2001 he had a brief spell as caretaker manager between the departure of Brian Flynn and arrival of Denis Smith.
In 2005, Joey completed his autobiography entitled "Oh Joey, Joey!" about his life in football. This was a book of the week on Sky Sports News in February 2006.
Also in 2005, Joey was named as Wrexham's ultimate Cult Hero on BBC TV's Football Focus.
Much like Chelsea, Jones is a legend amongst Liverpool supporters and he finished in 63rd place on the 2006 official Liverpool Football Club web-site poll 100 Players Who Shook The Kop, 110,000 fans worldwide voted for their favourite 100 Liverpool players of all-time.

People often assume that once they have a crown placed on a tooth, it will last the rest of their lives. Although dental crowns may last for a very long time, it is not correct to say that they will last forever.
This is one of the most difficult questions asked of a dentist because, in essence, no one can be sure. However, there are a few resources available that can give us an idea of how long your dental crowns may last.
One resource is insurance companies. Even though the dental insurance company should not dictate the type of treatment that should be done, they give some insight into the matter. Insurance companies will pay for a new crown on the same tooth after five years. So, in essence, they believe that dental crowns will last at least five years. Another resource available is the dental literature. The dental research has some extreme variability in this area. It provides information that ranges from a 20% failure rate in 3 years all the way to a 3% failure rate in 23 years. So, which is correct? The answer actually has to be looked at on a case-by-case basis. To do this, we need to look at why dental crowns have to be replaced.
There are many reasons why dental crowns need to be redone. Fracture is one example. The fracture incidence of dental crowns can be related to either the type of restoration (gold, metal ceramic, all-ceramic) or where the tooth restoration is placed in the mouth (anterior vs. posterior). Another risk factor is if a person has a grinding habit at night. A crown will have a higher risk of fracture in a mouth that applies more forces to the teeth by grinding than in one that does not have any incidence of grinding.
Decay can be another reason why dental crowns need to be replaced. Just because a tooth receives a crown does not mean it is less prone to decay. In fact, because it has more areas that may trap plaque, it needs to be cleaned as well, if not more meticulously, during home care.
Esthetics can be another reason why dental crowns are replaced. Esthetics is one of the main reasons people choose to have a new crown made in the anterior part of the mouth. This occurs because as we get older, our teeth will change color and progressively get darker while the tooth with the crown will stay the same color as the day it was placed. A discrepancy between the color of the teeth will become more evident over time. In addition to color, esthetic changes in the position of the gum tissue over time can also affect the look of the crown.
Which one of these areas may be a factor in a patient's mouth is uncertain. An idea can be obtained by evaluating the reason a crown was needed in the first place (such as a fractured tooth, decay, etc.). In conclusion, it is unclear how long dental crowns will last. Their life span may be anywhere from a few years all the way to 20 years and beyond. A lot of it will depend on the need for the crown in the first place and how well the mouth is taken care of after the crown is placed.
By Greggory Kinzer, DDS, MSD
Maybe the reason we find an eight-year-old's gapped teeth smile so adorable is...we know it's not permanent. Soon the grown-up teeth will be poking through, clean and new. All part of the mouth's natural evolution.
It's not often that nature gives us a second chance, but when it comes to teeth it does just that. For many children it can be a wake-up call to start taking dental hygiene seriously. As the old saying goes, "God gives you two sets of teeth, but you have to buy the third."
It may be time though to change that outdated piece of wisdom to: "Teeth are like friends...ignore them and their needs and they'll go away. Be kind to them and they'll stick with you forever."
That's why regular hygiene appointments and a gum disease examination are so important. Barring injury, there's simply no reason why most of us should be missing teeth as we grow older. Call it a "10,000 smile checkup," insuring all your parts are in good working order.
Once your cosmetic dentist knows that your teeth are healthy and the gums are sound, he or she can do a little restorative dentistry to evolve your smile to an even higher level. Things like dental bonding to close the gaps…or invisible dental crowns or veneers for front teeth…even teeth bleaching for a truly dazzling and beautiful smile.
Give your cosmetic dentistry professional a call. He or she can help you see to it that your mouth does the job it was intended to for a lifetime. And look drop-dead sensational at the same time!

A mathematical model for dynamic memory networks
Document typeConference report
Date issued2011
PublisherIniciativa Digital Politècnica
Rights accessOpen Access
The aim of this paper is to bring together the work done several years ago by M.A. Fiol and the other authors to formulate a quite general mathematical model for a kind of permutation networks known as dynamic memories. A dynamic memory is constituted by an array of cells, each storing one datum, and an interconnection network between the cells that allows the constant circulation of the stored data. The objective is to design the interconnection network in order to have short access time and a simple memory control. We review how most of the proposals of dynamic memories that have appeared in the literature fit in this general model, and how it can be used to design new structures with good access properties. Moreover, using the idea of projecting a digraph onto a de Bruijn digraph, we propose new structures for dynamic memories with vectorial capabilities. Some of these new proposals are based on iterated line digraphs, which have been widely and successfully used by M.A. Fiol and his coauthors to solve many different problems in graph theory.

The Social History of LSD
- Introduction
- The government, the CIA and research and testing of psychedelic drugs
- CIA's experiments with LSD
- Testing acid on unwitting American citizens
- The Psychedelic Research Project in 1960
- The voyage of the Furthur
- LSD and changes in the mental state
- The psychedelic scene after the 60's
- Works cited
When Albert Hofmann created LSD 25 during experimentation in his laboratory, he had no idea what was to become of it, or what kind of an impact it would have. "Dr. Humphry Osmond invented the term 'psychodelic', which was later amended to 'psychedelic to get rid of the nuthouse connotation of 'psycho'." (Wolfe 39). This term encompasses a whole generation, a cultural revolution that took place during the 60's. Since its creation, LSD, among other psychedelics, has had a great impact on the American culture.
[...] Kesey came up with the character of Chief Broom, through whom the story of his first novel is told, from and LSD trip (Wolfe 42). Kesey wrote several passages of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest while on peyote and LSD. "He even had someone give him a shock treatment, clandestinely, so he could write a passage in which Chief Broom comes back from 'the shock shop'." Allen Ginsberg (1926 - 1997) was a writer and poet from the Beat generation that participated in the acid scene. [...]
[...] With its LSD-testing programs in college towns, such as the one where Ken Kesey and Robert Hunter, later Garcia's lyricist, first tasted the forbidden fruit, the CIA sowed the seeds of the chemical manipulations of consciousness that remain a leitmotiv of the Dead's culture of enchantment." Ken Kesey was on of the first to have LSD tested on at the Veterans Hospital in Menlo Park in 1959. He learned of the experiment from his friend, a psychology student named Vic Lovell. [...]

After a quarter of a game in August, none in September, three in October (including two during one weekend in Hamburg), one in November, one in December (again, in Germany), one in January (two if you count North Leigh B vs Freeland A) and one in February - i.e. just seven games (more or less) in seven months - the fixture list conspired to present us with three games in four weeks during the month of March; my 'spare' Saturday to be spent in various pubs in Clapham, celebrating a mate's birthday.
This liver and wallet-zapping extravaganza was quickly (and rather aptly, as it turns out) termed 'Mad March'.
Check out the numerous photos (too many to post on here) on the GMOSC Facebook page (and the one of Murdo and I on the GLC Tour Blog!)
As it is, brief summaries of each day below:
When ~ Saturday 5th March 2011
Where ~ Dartford (for Dartford 3-0 Maidenhead United)
Why ~ the chance to round-up a few 'blasts from the past' (Willie, Mick, Jonny Wah Wah) and have a good ol' MUFC sing-song at a new ground (which was very impressive BTW). Cue fake goal celebrations, a conga when 3-0 down and all swear words replaced by the word 'ginge' (after Stevie G accused us, on his blog, of chanting 'ginger cnut' at Cinderford, which is a load ginging bullginge).
^^^ Memorable line 1 ~ "Dartford FC, how can I help?" - customer service skills put to good use
^^^ Memorable Line 2 ~ "Is that Grim??" - random meet up with Wealdstone's finest
^^^ Memorable Line 3 ~ "We should do this more often" - back in the Anchor, a shirtless Willie had clearly enjoyed the day!
What they (Dartford) had to say about our support:
Must mention the Maidenhead Massive, they sang through most of the match, and were still singing after most of us had gone home or left the pitch. As I walked out at their end they were doing a great rendition of " We'll score again, don't know where don't know when. But we know we'll score again some sunny day". Great support lads ~ Lol
watching the Maidenhead fans pretending to score a goal was probably more interesting than watching the first half ~ Levyify
I agree, although very few in number there supporters were good. However as was pointed out to me at the end of the game all but three of their players completely ignored them and went straight down the tunnel, very poor show from their players and management ~ Park Life
Massive credit to the 'Head massive who had clearly ".....drunk more than us, they'd drunk much more than us...."! Was impressed by their flags and HUGE banner ~ DA Mikey
Apart from the result i think their fans enjoyed their day out, about 10 of them were in the Ivy Leaf & the Malt Shovel until around 8pm!! ~ The future's White
That's the spirit!!! ~ Silverado
What they (MUFC Ltd) had to say about our support:
The (only) three players/management who came over to applaud us at the end, incidentally, were Mark Nisbet, Bobby Behzadi and Ashley Nicholls. Fair play to 'em. The others - Kieran Knight, for one, couldn't wait to get off the pitch; I've never seen him run so fast - should hang their hands in shame (although I suspect that they couldn't care less).
Mad March ~ part 2
When ~ Saturday 12th March 2011
Where ~ Goldie Lookin Chain @ Camden Underworld via Ascot United 3-3 Pegasus Juniors
Why ~ we were supposed to see the Chain in Camden via Bromley vs MUFC Ltd the Saturday before Christmas, but both the game and the gig were postponed due to snow. The gig was re-scheduled for the same day that Ascot were at home. We'd been planning on going to the Racecourse Ground for some time, not least due to the presence of ex-Magpie Rob 'Rod Hull' Saunders (AKA Heybridge Mirror Thief) and my work colleague Sam Mac in their squad. The stars had aligned.
^^^ Memorable Line 1 ~ "Got any gear" - local skagheads approach us before we've even entered the first pub!
^^^ Memorable Line 2 ~ "What the fcuk are you lot doing??" - Rob Saunders, prior to missing a penalty (below) in Ascot's 3-3 draw, spots us on the sidelines as he prepares to defend a first-half throw-in
^^^ Memorable Line 3 ~ "Football talk is now banned; 50p fine for each and every breach" - my reaction to news that Arsenal were getting beat at Old Trafford in the Cup. The train journey from Ascot to Waterloo cost me £7.50 in fines!
^^^ Memorable Line 4 ~ "He's not in the band" - after the bouncers had cleared everyone, bar me, from the stage after the gig had ended in a mass stage invasion, the club DJ had to pointedly inform them that I wasn't actually a member of the GLC!
Mad March ~ part three
Mad March ~ part three
When ~ Saturday 19th March 2011
Where ~ Clapham
Why ~ annual all-day (well, all-afternoon at least) drinking session in South London to celebrate the 29th birthday of my good friend: former MUFC Ltd Reserve team player - and everyone's favourite Bognorian-Italian - B T Macari.
^^^ Memorable Line 1 ~ "Woking? Not again!" - one of us journeyed between Waterloo and Woking more than once, on the train home to Walton-on-Thames
^^^ Memorable Line 2 ~ "Can you pick me up please?" - one of us ended up on Brentford High Street and had to call the wife for a lift home
^^^ Memorable Line 3 ~ "How much??" - one of us ended up in Basingstoke and got a rather expensive taxi home, rather than wait for a train to Reading
^^^ Memorable Line 2 ~ "Can you pick me up please?" - one of us ended up on Brentford High Street and had to call the wife for a lift home
^^^ Memorable Line 3 ~ "How much??" - one of us ended up in Basingstoke and got a rather expensive taxi home, rather than wait for a train to Reading
Mad March ~ part four
When ~ Saturday 26th & Sunday 27th March 2011
Where ~ stay-over in Berwick-upon-Tweed, taking in Berwick Rangers 1-1 East Stirlingshire (we missed the Shire goal, as we were drinking Bellhaven in the clubhouse, and then Berwick equalised at the death ... which was rather apt!) as well as several pubs (including the excellent Barrels Ale House) and then Bedrocks nightclub.
Why ~ ever since reading Jeff Connor's excellent book 'Pointless' we've said that we wanted to see the Shire play. One night in the Anchor, after an MUFC Ltd game, it was mentioned to us - by someone who would know - that Berwick was a decent night out. Berwick Rangers vs East Stirlingshire (rather than, it transpired, Whitley Bay at Poole Town in the FA Vase Semi 1st Leg, or Scotland vs Brazil at the Emirates) was penciled in as soon as the fixtures came out last summer, and was booked in early February.
Memorable Line 1 ~ "Technically, Berwick Rangers is a league ground in England" - a comment to fellow MUFC fan and Macleod (M) schoolmate Richard C; on the same London-bound train as us at 06:47, on the Saturday morning, en route to watch W@nky Wanderers at Morecambe. His 92nd - and final, or so he thought - English league ground (or league ground in England??)
^^^ Memorable Line 2 ~ "Nae sing, nae win" - the Shire's Macleod (M) equivalent needlessly rallied the boisterous away following with this repeated, bellowed remark
^^^ Memorable Line 3 ~ "Let's get naked for the Shire" - some did (well, almost)
^^^ Memorable Line 4 ~ "Nae bother; the car is fooked and I can break into the house" - paunchy, bare-chested, inebriated Shire fan's response to our offer, at the end of the match, to help search for his missing car and house keys, which he had presumably lost rolling up and down a grassy bank
^^^ Memorable Line 5 ~ "Community Support Officers are a complete waste of time" - young policeman to us, on Berwick Main St, after we mentioned that we rarely saw proper coppers round our way. His face went as white as a sheet when I told him that we were undercover reporters from the News of the World and were recording the conversation; prompting both him and his more experienced colleague to run away from us!
^^^ Memorable Line 6 ~ "Who'd you kill" - question to two bouncers on the door of Berwick nightclub Bedrocks - complete with carpeted floors and £2-a-drink pricing policy - who, it transpired, were from Brighton and Harrow respectively. They both laughed ... albeit rather nervously, I thought! ;-)
