Communications professional Bruce Braun retires
Bruce Braun, former executive director of Technical Operations for Liberty University's School of Communication & Creative Arts, announced his retirement last month after working in the broadcast and entertainment field for more than 50 years. His last day was Friday, Feb. 28.
Braun first came to Liberty in 1978 and worked with Liberty founder Jerry Falwell, Sr. as head of the "Old Time Gospel Hour" television broadcast and the Liberty Broadcasting Network Television Department. In 1984, Braun left Liberty to manage his own full-service video production company, Creative Teleproductions Inc.
He returned to Liberty in 2008, and since then has managed video production, television and radio broadcasting, the Flames Sports Network (now the Liberty Flames Sports Network), video archiving, classroom technology, and campus productions.
"These past years at Liberty have been a highlight of my career," Braun said. "I have had the privilege of working for both Jerry Falwell, Sr. and most recently President Jerry Falwell, Jr. I have learned the importance of teamwork, tolerance, and patience in the face of constant change and most importantly faith, obedience, and dependence on God in all situations."
President Falwell recognized Braun for his commitment to Liberty during a retirement celebration on Feb. 17.
"Bruce Braun was instrumental in building the television network in the 1970s and '80s that was used to tell the world about a new Christian college in Lynchburg, Va.," President Falwell said. "He returned in recent years to oversee many of the staff that he hired decades before. Bruce was one of the pioneers who helped make Liberty University a reality. He will be missed."
|President Jerry Falwell, Jr. shows his appreciation to Bruce Braun during a retirement celebration in the Hancock Welcome Center on Feb. 17.
Braun said he believes that God has a time for everything, and it is time for him to move on to a different form of service. He plans on becoming more involved in local and international mission projects and traveling and visiting ministries across the country. He also plans to continue rehearsing and performing with numerous orchestras and wind ensembles (he has played the trombone professionally for more than 50 years).
Braun will still be serving Liberty as an independent contractor for its land mobile radio communication systems, and he also wants to develop an amateur radio club for students.
"God has blessed Liberty with an outstanding administration, staff, and resources," Braun said. "I am confident that my successors will eclipse my humble efforts. With the university's continued commitment to obedience to God and biblical principles, I know Liberty has its best years ahead. Though I will always miss Liberty, I will continue to pray for God's blessings on this outstanding Christian institution of higher learning."

• mentor •
men-têr • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun
Meaning: A wise and trusted older advisor.
Notes: The relationship of a mentor to his or her protégé (advisee) is generally taken to be mentorship. The adjective for this noun is mentorial, as mentorial advice or a mentorial affection. The noun itself may be used as a verb, for mentors mentor others. In South Africa, protégé is considered politically incorrect and is being replaced by mentee, implying that the verb is ment. It isn't, so let's protect ourselves against this one.
In Play: We become mentors via any one of a variety of relationships: "By the middle of her life, Beatrix had concluded that her best mentor had always been her mother." Choosing the right mentor to listen to is a critical step in anyone's life: "Lester was stunned to hear that his long-time financial mentor had been arrested for insider trading."
Word History: Today's Good Word is another Latin borrowing via French. Latin borrowed the word from Greek, where it was the name of a close friend of Odysseus, left to look after Odysseus' son, Telemachus, when he went away on his Odyssey, according to Greek mythology. Mentor's name appears to be an agent noun of mentos "intent, purpose, spirit". This word came from Proto-Indo-European root men- "mind, think", which turned up in Latin men(t)s "mind". We find this root in many words borrowed from Latin, such as mental, mention, and the suffix -ment. English also inherited this root directly through its Germanic ancestors as mind. (We are grateful to Ed Bedford for mentoring us with the suggestion we run today's Good Word.)

Too Poor for Dental Care Robs Wife of Husband's Kiss
Remote Area Medical serves 2,000 people in three days.
April 6, 2013 -- Val Crosby has been unable to kiss her husband for a year. A degenerative disease has rotted her teeth down to the gums, and they cannot afford dental care in their isolated pocket of Tennessee.
The 43-year-old holds down two part-time jobs, as a chamber maid at a seasonal bed and breakfast and as a waitress, and her husband, Jonathan, is a self-employed carpenter. Neither has health insurance.
"For the last couple of years, business has been hard, very hard," Crosby, who lives in Butler, told ABCNews.com.
But last year, she finally reached out for help from Remote Area Medical, or RAM, a pop-up medical clinic that offers free dental, medical and eye exams to those who don't have available health care.
Now, her story is told in a new documentary that has its world premiere this weekend as an official selection at the 2013 Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in Durham, N.C. It will also screen at the International Film Festival Boston and the Nashville Film Festival in April.
In April 2012, directors Jeff Reichert and Farihah Zaman filmed RAM's operation at the massive NASCAR speedway in Bristol, Tenn., the heart of Appalachia and the birthplace of country music, where medical volunteers served 2,000 Americans in three days.
"People consider themselves lucky to live in this place," said Reichert. "But one of the other issues underlying their medical problems is not just that they are poor and uninsured, but they are 200 miles from the nearest doctor."
RELATED: Dental Care Has Decayed for Low Income Families
Rhonda Begley, a lifelong smoker who had never seen a doctor, had a chest X-ray that revealed a suspicious spot on her lung. Glenn Epps is legally blind and hoped to find new technologies to help him regain the eyesight he lost while in an overoxygenated incubator as an infant. Doctors couldn't help him, but he walked away with a new set of dentures.
Johnny Peters has had all his top teeth removed, but because RAM could not offer prescriptions for painkillers, he had to resort to street drugs to ease his discomfort.
Crosby had no nerves in her teeth, and they shattered easily, a condition she inherited from her mother. She had hoped to have all her teeth pulled and receive dentures. But because of the demand for care that day, she could have only the five teeth with festering abscesses removed.
But Crosby said it was "very, very hard" asking for charity. "Pride is a thing that comes into it," she said. "We don't ask people for help. I grew up on a dairy farm, and that's how we were raised."
Remote Area Medical was founded by cowboy and pilot Stan Brock -- a onetime star of television's "Wild Kingdom" -- who spent 15 years helping indigenous peoples in the Amazon rain forest, but soon discovered there were just as many people in need in the United States.
Today it offers 246 pop-up medical clinics for the nation's 50 million uninsured.
This is only the second film for Reichert, 34, whose first, "Gerrymandering," premiered at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival; it was the first for Zaman, 29.
RELATED: Medicaid Coverage Puts Emergency Dental Appointments Out of Reach for Many Kids
A freelance journalist, Zaman previously worked as acquisitions manager at the independent film distribution company Magnolia Pictures and is in production on a new documentary to be released in 2014.
In 2011, the directors joined Reichert's aunt, a retired nurse, and volunteered at a RAM clinic in Pikesville, Ky., sitting at the registration table. The numbers were "staggering," and the "kindness" of volunteers brought them to tears.
"We'd ask simple questions about their prescription medication, and as we got the details of their personal medical history, we'd get their life stories – the drugs they were taking and the diseases and problems they'd had," he said. "We were stunned."
Even dental problems like Crosby's had a huge impact on their lives.
"It's an emotional issue for people -- your health is your life," said Zaman. I have no teeth and have no confidence. I can provide for my family if I feel good about myself."
The joy of volunteers also inspired the directors.
Thom Dandrige, with his wife, Judy, runs RAM's optical lab, which operates out of a retro-fitted Mac track once used for transporting NASCAR vehicles.
For more than a decade, Dr. Joseph Smiddy, a Tennessee pulmonologist, has been driving and operating a truck outfitted with high-tech X-ray equipment to various RAM events.
Patients waiting in long lines were frustrated at times, but grateful.
"The emotions were like a county fair, with people tailgating and making the most of the situation," said Zaman. "There was so much warmth there."
Reichert added, "Doctors can be like doom and gloom, but here they were part of the solution -- it wasn't perfect, but they made a difference in peoples' lives."
Val Crosby said the dental care she received was more than just cosmetic -- she'd worried that the infections in her mouth could lead to stress on her heart.
But more than that, the dental care helped lift a depression that had cast a long shadow over her life.
"I hope our politicians see the need for some kind of universal health care that includes dental, vision and medical, and caters to everybody, not just people who have money, but people who are struggling," said Crosby. "In a year or two, we might be high up on the hog. But right now, it's a struggle for us."

Clinical Research
Gynecologic Oncology Program
Area of interest
My clinical interests focus on Gynecologic Oncology.
My research focuses on understanding the interactions between cell signaling pathways implicated in endometrial cancer pathogenesis as a means to target therapy for this disease. In this pursuit, I have investigated many novel targeted therapies for the treatment of endometrial cancer, including mTOR inhibitors, arsenic, a human monoclonal antibody to the insulin growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), soy, genistein and most recently, metformin. I am also interested in the impact that obesity has on endometrial cancer development and progression which may invariably dictate different treatment options for this particularly high-risk patient population. In addition, I have a clinical trial underway which is a microarray-based endeavor to correlate gene expression patterns with clinical outcomes and parameters in endometrial cancer, including obesity, lymph node status and recurrence risk.

Below is an article on hot tub safety. One point to add is a locking spa cover will provide the needed protection to keep our children safe around spas and hot tubs.
With kids at play, make pools and spas safer
It took the drowning death of a 7-year-old girl in a hot tub to bring about safety regulations regarding pools and spas. Through the efforts of the child's mother and legislators, the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act went into effect December of 2008. "One accident is too many," said Mark Larange, owner of Livin' Easy Spa Sales & Service in Greenfield, Mass.
While the pool and spa safety act is a federal law that primarily impacts public pools and spas, each state has been adopting portions of the law to oversee those that are privately owed. "Any time there is an OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) related event such as what happened to that child they (the government) always works to make us better," said Larange.
Larange said that different states have focused on differing aspects of the law to make them more stringent. It is important to check state and local laws in relation to pools and spas whether you are installing something new or are retrofitting your pool or spa. Speak to your local building inspector when considering new pool and spa safety measures.
Some states are currently working on legislation and have no specific regulations relating to private ownership. However, most states are in the process of adopting new legislation. Larange said he expected Massachusetts to have new legislation within the next two years.
Regardless of legislation, there are steps you can easily take as a homeowner to make your pool or spa safer for your children:
Preventing Entrapment
The primary culprit in pool and spa injuries and deaths usually involves entrapment of hair or other body parts that are drawn into a drain or pump. "Entrapment can happen then there are faulty drains or pumps," said Larange. Children are especially susceptible to entrapment due to lighter weight and smaller body size. In addition, Larange said, children often play games in pools and spas, diving to the bottom or seeing how long they can hold their breath, for example.
Larange said that many pools generally have self-priming pumps which draw water into it and are gravity fed. The suction created can hold a child underwater if they come in close contact with the drain.
If you have a pool or spa/hot tub at home, you can retrofit your drains and pumps at a fairly low cost. You can retrofit anti-entrapment drains for about $90 to $150. Larange said that the new anti-entrapment devices/systems are more sensitive to water pressure, and will automatically shut down if water flow is reduced. "In spas, there are also now bottom filters and surface top skimmers. There are check valves that will switch one system to the other if there is more than two pounds of pressure on one of the systems."
Larange said that newer drains are often higher than the surface of the pool or spa with various openings for suction, as opposed to just one opening with much higher suction. "So, if someone brushes up against it, there is plenty of space to draw (suction) from the other side," he said.
Pool Surface Alarms
Larange said that pool surface alarms can also be installed so that if a child sneaks into a pool or spa, the alarm will go off once the surface of the water is broken. "As soon as something splashes in the water, the pumps shut down," said Larange.
There are numerous types of surface alarms. Most transmit a signal to the owner that the water has been breeched. The two types of surface alarms are those that float on the surface of the water and those that detect subsurface wave motion and are installed on the sides of a pool or spa. Both can be adjusted for sensitivity. Subsurface alarms have been noted to work better and have fewer false alarms than surface alarms. Surface alarms range in cost from about $150 to $250. Subsurface alarms cost a bit more ranging from $200 to $300.
The Old Fashioned Way
The most important thing you can do to protect your children is watch them at all times if they are in a pool or spa.

Advisers: Patrick Frierson (Philosophy), Jack Jackson (Politics), and Noah Leavitt (Assistant Dean for Student Engagement)
Whitman does not have and does not recommend a formal prelaw major as preparation for law school, believing that no specific series of courses can be considered correct for every student who intends to enter the legal profession. Major law schools and the Association of American Law Schools agree that a broad liberal arts program is the best general preparation.
Law schools want evidence that its applicants can think, read, write, express themselves orally, and have some understanding of the forces which have shaped human experience, developed its institutions, and ordered its values. A wide variety of courses in the social sciences, history, literature, philosophy, and rhetoric deal with such matters, though in different ways and with different emphases. The study and practice of law also requires analytical reasoning skills which are fostered by certain courses in mathematics and the natural sciences, economics, and philosophy.
Students planning a legal career are welcome to discuss their plans with a prelaw adviser. Those interested in the combined program with Columbia University that will permit them to obtain a law degree and a bachelor's degree at the end of six years rather than the normal seven should read provisions for such a program in the Combined Plans section of this catalog. It is essential to plan for this program as early as possible in order to meet all requirements.
The P-D-F grade option should be used by prelaw students with caution. Students who hope to attend law school the fall following graduation should take either the October or December Law School Admission Test during their senior year in order to meet most law school admission deadlines. A reason to take the earlier October test: Scores will be reported prior to most law school admission deadlines, an advantage when judging one's chances for admission to various schools.

Seasonality and SustainabilityWednesday, March 10th, 2010
An essential part of sustainability is to be true to seasonal foods. If a food is in season then you can be pretty sure that it has its best nutritional value, its best price points and most important of all its best flavor. Organic production is much easier to do when a product is in season, so the price difference between organic and non organic diminishes. This means it is financially more sustainable as well.
It is now Citrus season! Blood oranges, grapefruits and tangerines are flavorful and cheap. Asparagus is also coming on strong, though it came in a bit later than last year. To find our seasonal weekly and daily specials, check out our Facebook Page.

Travel journalist Jan Henderson is impressed with Norway's largest ski resort.
I wish I'd known about Trysil 15 or 20 years ago – and so, I suspect, do my children. All three of my kids were taken on ski holidays to the French Alps at a tender age and heartlessly thrust into ski school while their selfish parents went off skiing – and while they undoubtedly learned the basics of skiing, for which they are now grateful, I don't recall there being a lot of fun involved. Things have changed a lot in France since then, but being the only English child in a large group of French kids with an instructor whose English was limited and whose interest in the stray foreign interloper equally slight can't have been a bundle of laughs.
Well, I'm sorry, kids – but if I'd known about Trysil we'd have gone there instead and you would have learned to ski and had a lot of fun at the same time. I'm not alone in my ignorance of Trysil, I suspect, so it's my pleasure to enlighten you about the delights of Norway's largest ski resort…
Like many people bitten by the ski bug, my experiences over the years have been predominantly in the Alps – be they the French, Swiss, Austrian or Italian versions – and "lesser" areas such as Norway and Sweden have struggled to register. On the basis of my mid-March trip to Trysil last season, that's been my loss. The snow is great, the pistes are ideal for beginners and intermediates, the hotels and restaurants are welcoming… and it's a wonderful place for your children to get a first taste of skiing.
Trysil is close to the Swedish border, some 170 kilometres and two hours by transfer coach from Oslo, and this year celebrated 50 years as a ski resort, although it still remains relatively unknown internationally – making the slopes generally quiet and uncrowded.
With 71 kilometres of piste and 29 lifts there's a good mix of slopes across essentially four ski areas. Høyfjellsenter is good for beginners, with gentle green runs and a large kids' area; Turistsenter also has excellent nursery slopes as well as attractive tree-lined blue and red runs for intermediates; Skihytta has a mix of beginner and intermediate pistes, great for groups; while more advanced skiers and boarders will head for Høgegga, with seven blacks and a new high-speed chairlift, although it has to be said that there's little here to challenge the real experts. The whole mountain is very well connected, and easy and more challenging slopes can often be found side-by-side, so mixed ability groups can ski together.
The whole area is compact, with most of the slopes within the tree line, but with some good sweeping runs from the top of the Trysilfjellt mountain – and the snow itself is likely to be some of the best you will ever experience. Despite the summit being a mere 1132 metres and the lower slopes just 415 metres above sea level, the snow from top to bottom is uniformly excellent, thanks to Trysil's northerly position – you are a lot closer to the Arctic Circle here than you would be anywhere in the Alps! With the general uncertainty over snow conditions elsewhere in Europe in the last few years, the reliability of the snow in Trysil is good news – and their lengthy ski season from October to May is testament to this.
The emphasis in Trysil is on family skiing, and is excellent for introducing beginners, especially children, to the joys of skiing and snowboarding. The nursery areas are better than most traditional Alpine resorts, and the ski instructors are friendly and speak perfect English. Trysil Turissenter has a large area serviced by three tows and a magic carpet, there is a practice roundabout tow, tracks through the trees to explore as well as wide open learning slopes, and if the kids get tired they can always make tracks to the nearby Lego shop....
Of course skiing is hard work – and the good news is there are a number of good places for lunch either on the mountain or at the foot of the slopes. Our little group stopped for lunch at the Skihytta restaurant high on the slopes, offering a variety of traditional Norwegian dishes – I can recommend their speciality Suppegjøk, a delicious and filling goulash soup served in a hollowed-out loaf of bread, providing plenty of fuel for the afternoon's skiing!
If you are going with Crystal you'll likely be staying in one of the two Radisson Blu hotels that bookend the resort – we stayed in the Radisson Blu Mountain Resort, a large, modern but welcoming hotel that's right on the slopes, so you've got ski-in, ski-out access, and the ski bus stops right outside to take you to the ski school. It has two restaurants and an impressive spa area with an indoor pool, indoor and outdoor whirlpools, saunas, steam room and relaxation room. Bedrooms are large and comfortable, and the hotel as a whole provides a welcoming place to relax and unwind after a day on the slopes - or indeed before a day on the slopes, as we discovered with an hour's yoga class before breakfast!
The Radisson Blu Resort hotel, at the other end of Trysil and also conveniently at the foot of the slopes, offers similar comforts but is squarely aimed at families - the indoor adventure pool has separate sections for toddlers and kids, as well as a climbing wall over the deep pool, and even Norway's only wave pool. There's also a bowling alley, complete with retro American diner, three other restaurants, three bars and a spa area with sauna, steam room, laconium and hot pool.
Downtown Trysil also has a variety of bars and restaurants – we ate out at one serving delicious traditional Norwegian dishes, each one accompanied by a different locally-produced craft beer and most welcome after a lengthy tour of the town's interesting ski museum nearby. And if you tire of skiing there's plenty of other activities on offer, including horse-drawn carriage rides, dog sledding, ice fishing, snowkiting, cross-country skiing and snowshoe walking, plus tenpin bowling and a cinema if the weather closes in.
Trysil may not have the big miles or extreme runs of some of the major Alpine resorts, but more than makes up for that with its brilliant snow on quiet and well-groomed runs, great facilities for kids and stylish, welcoming hotels. It is well worth looking at as an alternative to the Alps – especially if you have a young family. I wish I did 20 years ago…
Jan Henderson travelled to Trysil with Crystal Ski Holidays (www.crystalski.co.uk; 020 8610 3123), who offer a week's bed & breakfast at the four-star Radisson Blu Mountain Hotel from £546 per person (based on two sharing) including flights from Gatwick to Oslo and transfers (price given is for departure on 4 February 2018).

Edit: Unfortunately, the images originally included in this post are gone, because of hosting problems in late 2009. My apologies.
It's been a long time since I lost sleep to a game, and I'm almost ashamed that it's something so simple that cost me an hour's rest last night. Gridwars 2, a clone of the Geometry Wars sequel for the XBox 360, stole that time from me.
Not that I'm complaining. I don't game as much as I used to — I admit that, but with the corollary that I'm glad for the fact. I get a lot more done these days, and I'm learning a lot more than when I spent hours staring down KotOR2.
But this one had me hooked from the instant I started it up. I played Geometry Wars 2 at a friends house a few months ago, but didn't think to chase down a Linux clone — shame on me, because this one's worth it.
Game play is very close to the original, for what I remember. I prefer mouse control over the XBox controllers, and the buttons are easy to manage. It's almost too easy, really: I got well over 650,000 points before I died the first time last night. And that was about 30 minutes of play, too.
This one will need accelerated graphics, and to be honest, my 1Ghz machine is grinding a bit when the battles get frenzied. You'll want something with a little muscle in the video department, before you try it out.
I downloaded this from the GetDeb.net page, and I'll have to get to work on a Crux port for it; I want to slim down my machine before I get serious. 😈
But I suppose I should close with a warning — don't start it up before a job interview or a wedding rehearsal or the first day of school. You'll be late, I can guarantee it. 😀

OLYMPIA — A local disabled veteran says someone stole his service dog in-training from his backyard while he was sleeping.
Now, his beloved pet is gone — And so is his sense of security.
"He didn't just run away," Robert Mitchell said. "He wouldn't take his toy and his blanket with him to run away."
Mitchell says his dog Max was stolen from his backyard in Olympia sometime between 4:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. Monday.
"I came down at 9 to feed him, and the other dog was here, but he wasn't," Mitchell said.
Mitchell had been dog-sitting a friend's pet — that dog was still in the yard, but Max was missing.
"Immediately searched the neighborhood," he said.
He checked his entire yard — the 6-foot-tall wooden fence showed no escape routes and his gate was still secured with a lock.
"I never would have imagined in a million years that someone would jump the fence and take him," Mitchell said.
He filed a police report, and Thurston County sheriff's deputies knocked on doors in the neighborhood to ask if anyone might have seen Max.
"Never had a dog," Mitchell said, breaking down in tears. "I feel like … I feel like I let him down."
He said the thief stole so much more than his beloved dog.
"He's not just a pet," Mitchell said.
After serving 20 years in the Army, Mitchell suffers from PTSD and life-threatening seizures.
Max was in training to become a service dog, to alert Mitchell before he has a medical emergency.
Mitchell said he now is suffering from a broken heart.
"Him being gone, it's just about to kill me," he said.
He added that he will not press charges, he just wants his dog back.
If anyone knows of Max's whereabouts, you're asked to call the Thurston County Sheriff's Office.

Effective Strategies for Dealing with Ducts in Unconditioned Spaces
A version of this article appears in the May/June 2014 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
May 01, 2014
Ductwork installed in unconditioned spaces—such as attics, crawl spaces, and garages—can contribute significantly to the overall heating and cooling costs of residential buildings. Estimated duct thermal losses for single-family homes with ductwork installed in unconditioned spaces can range from 10% to 45% of total heating and cooling loads. In other words, poorly installed duct systems can account for almost half of the total heating and cooling costs of some residential buildings.

ILLUSION. A species of mania in which the sensibility of the nervous system is altered, excited, weakened or perverted. The patient is deceived by the false appearance of things, and his reason is not sufficiently active and powerful to correct the error, and this last particular is what distinguishes the sane from the insane. Illusions are not unfrequent in a state of health, but reason corrects the errors and dissipates them. A square tower seen from a distance may appear round, but on approaching it, the error is corrected. A distant mountain may be taken for a cloud, but as we approach, we discover the truth. To a person in the cabin of a vessel under sail, the shore appears to move; but reflection and a closer examination soon destroy this illusion. An insane individual is mistaken on the qualities, connexions, and causes of the impressions he actually receives, and he forms wrong judgments as to his internal and external sensations; and his reason does not correct the error. 1 Beck's Med. Jur. 538; Esquirol, Maladies Mentales, prem. partie, III., tome 1, p. 202. Dict. des Sciences Medicales, Hallucination, tome 20, p. 64. See Hallucination.

text: Texting and driving – No amount of justification makes it okay.  You may have seen it already on over 1,000 billboards across the nation, the new slogan created by Oxford student, Emily McDonald, "Better left unread than dead." Hard hitting? Yes, straight to the point? Certainly. What reads as a harsh message, in fact does not do the underlying problem justice. Its almost impossible to get across the importance of this problem that puts so many of us in danger on a daily basis. Texting and driving is extremely dangerous and needs to stop.  Every year, about 421,000 people are injured in crashes that have involved a driver with some kind of distraction. Each year, over 330,000 accidents that are caused by texting while driving lead to severe injures. All this means that of all those "distracted" drivers, about 78% of them are distracted by one thing, their cell phone. It might surprise you to hear that it is 6x more likely to cause an accidentthan drunk driving with 1 out of every 4 car accidents in the US been caused by texting while driving. This is a very scary statistic to say the least. It takes a distraction of just 3 seconds to cause a road accident. Even just reading your text takes at least 5 seconds. At an average speed of 55mph this would mean we would travel the length of one whole football field. Those numbers don't add up to our SAFETY.  What a lot of people want to know is what is being done about it? So many lives are being ruined because of a text that should have been left unread.  However, it is clear Governments are not being idle to the fact that these numbers are rising. In DC, and 10 other states, there are bans in place that effectively prevent drivers from using any handheld mobile device for any reason whatsoever. That means answering phone calls or even checking notifications. If it is so important, you need to safely pull over and answer. 33 of the nations states have decided to focus mainly on NEW drivers and teens, as this is where the bigger problem seems to be. 40 out of the 52 states expressly forbid all drivers from texting on their phone. The only thing still allowed is the use of maps and navigation. There is a clear message here. No amount of justification makes this okay. If it's urgent, pull over. If not, answer it when you are in a safe place. It only takes a moment for lives to change. Please share, and encourage safety for all drivers on our roads.  For more statistics, please visit: http://www.icebike.org/texting-and-driving/. Statistics used here were used from this article.

Hyperemesis Research
"Research on HG's short- and long-term effects is desperately needed and needed now. We need to do more to find a cure for this disease that has such devastating effects on a growing number of soon-to-be mothers."
- Congressman Xavier Becerra (CA)
Current Research
Currently the HER Foundation, in collaboration with UCLA and USC, is studying the Genetics of Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG). These HG Researchers need your help regardless if you have had or have not had HG.
Why More Research Is Needed
Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) was first recognized several centuries ago and was thought to be related to a physiological cause such as toxins, ulcerations, or infection. However, in the 20th century it was erroneously decided that HG was caused by psychological conflicts instead. Limited research and outdated theories have fostered this belief from generation to generation of health professionals, resulting in unnecessary suffering and financial loss for too many women and their families, not to mention unknown consequences for their unborn children.
Our Role in Research
The HER Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to educating others on the management of hyperemesis gravidarum (HG). It is our goal to increase awareness of available medical care and the potentially devastating consequences if untreated.

Cubs claim 24-year old Adrian Cardenas off of waivers from the Oakland A's. Cardenas was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in
the first round of the 2006 MLB Amateur Draft. Oakland acquired Cardenas in 2008 in the Joe Blanton deal. He has spent his first six first seasons in the minor leagues, including last year where he played second, short, third, and left field at the Triple-A level. The left-handed hitting Cardenas hit .314 with and OBP of .374. He has shown little power thus far in his career, however has been a career .303 hitter with an OBP of .368. In order to make room for Cardenas on the 40-man roster the Cubs designated 26-year old Blake DeWitt for assignment. DeWitt, a former 2004 first round pick by the Dodgers, came to Chicago in the deal that sent Ted Lilly and Ryan Theriot to the Dodgers in 2010. In his career DeWitt has a line of .260/.305/.385. The Cubs avoided arbitration with DeWitt this offseason agreeing on a $1.1 MM deal for the 2012 season.
What does this mean for the Cubs? They can trade DeWitt, release him, or place him on waivers. If he is waived and claimed by another team, like the Cubs did with Cardenas, that team would have to put DeWitt on their 40-man roster and pay his 2012 salary. If he does not get claimed the Cubs would either pay DeWitt $1.1 MM to play in Iowa, or release him and pay him one sixth of his salary. Ultimately, I would think the Cubs would like to make some kind of trade happen and get something for DeWitt as he is a former first round pick, who at one time had pretty good upside. If a trade does not happen I think a team will take a chance on him and claim him as the Cubs just did with Cardenas. If neither of those happen I believe the Cubs will cut ties with him as I do not think they will pay $1.1 MM for him to play in the minor leagues. It appears this is somewhat of a lateral move with Cubs getting a little younger and probably a little better offensively, although we have not seen Cardenas hit at the major league level yet.

(American, b. 1977)
An art history buff, Ben Steele imbues in his paintings tongue-in-cheek references to predecessors such as Leonardo da Vinci, Edgar Degas, Marc Chagall, and Jeff Koons. On many occasions, he has melded famed artists — Georges Seurat, Georgia O'Keefe, Henri Matisse, Jackson Pollock, et al. — with crayons.
His now-signature incorporation of the coloring sticks began with a suggestion from his mentor, David Dornan, who in turn is oft-recognized for still lifes of paint cans and brushes, as well as flowers and jars. David told Ben to paint things he liked.
"How can you not like a crayon?" Ben posits. "They're bright and colorful and nostalgic.
"It started as a desire to paint them as an interesting subject matter. Then the scenes started to build around them," he explains. "Over time, it has bounced in all directions, with the crayons staying at the core."
Ben describes his work as "kind of realist or representational oil paintings, usually with a theme [in addition to crayons, he favors the Etch-a-Sketch and gumball machine]. The subject matter may vary greatly, but it weaves in history and pop culture."
When he is asked to name his favorite artist, Ben usually says Johannes Vermeer. But (and undoubtedly more consistent with his own artistic ethos), he notes, "It's somewhere between Vermeer and [Andy] Warhol."
The juxtaposition of the studious Dutch painter of intimate moment in middle-class society and the irreverent American artist exploiting commercialism and celebrity status speaks to Ben's beguiling marriage of style and subject. For example, one of his odes to Vermeer shows the iconic milkmaid in the midst of the sitcom Cheers bar.
"I love sampling through the past and combining things," Ben says.
For his 2017 CODA exhibition (Nov. 25-Dec. 22), he created paintings highlighting desert landscapes. One work juxtaposes a crayon box with the recognizable Route 66 sign of Roy's motel/café in Amboy (the tiny town, at one time for sale, that he drives through on his way from Utah to Palm Desert). Another work offers a riff on David Hockney's swimming pool theme with a Palm Springs-labeled water bottle on a diving board. Yet another takes the fiery nightscape of MGM's Gone With the Wind poster and injects windmills on the horizon.
"Most of the time, I feel like I honor my subjects, but I absolutely am not above making fun of them," Ben says.
Though he exhibited artistic tendencies at a young age, Ben entered college seeking a business degree — thinking he would pursue a career as a golf professional, perhaps even as a golfer. But he didn't enjoy administrative studies and left school, returning a couple of years later to the art program at the University of Utah, where David Dornan was a professor.
"I instantly connected [with art]," he recalls.
Over the years, Ben has stayed inspired by expanding his subject matters and style while remaining true to his intrinsic nature.
"When I started with CODA, I was painting crayons. Then I made some chrome paintings, putting shiny things in still life's," he says. "We had good reaction to both, but the crayons felt more like an open opportunity. I can't just be a recluse and be misunderstood. My subject matter has to be something to which people can relate.
"If I have a show with, say 13 paintings, 10 will be similar to things I have done in the past and three represent something completely different — something pushing a little beyond."
In addition to shows at CODA Gallery, Arden Gallery in Boston, and Gallery 19 in Chicago, Ben's exhibition history includes the National Contemporary Realism Show at M.A. Doran Gallery in Tulsa; Western Heroes of Pulp Fiction: Dime Novel to Pop Culture at Tucson Museum of Art, and Artists for the New Century at Bennington Center for the Arts in Bennington, Vermont. His work resides in several notable collections, such as those of The Tom and Mary James/Raymond James Financial Art Collection, Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, Fred Couples, the San Francisco Giants' executive offices, as well as in multiple Delta Airline Sky Club lounges throughout the United States.
Ben describes his process as "sketching in my head and then sketching on the canvas. I get the composition right and then switch to oil paint. I never work one painting start to finish; and I don't track my time on them, because I paint in batches: anywhere from four to six at a time. I keep them rotating, because oil paint needs time to dry.
"I pretty much work every day," he continues, adding that he spends fewer hours in the studio on the weekends so that he can be home with his family, which includes his wife, Melanie; sons Oliver and Andrew; and their half-English, half-French bulldog ("20 pounds of muscle"), Diesel.
Ben spends at least some time in his studio most days of the year. In order to have sustained quality time with his family, he works limited hours of weekends, applying glazes, which he can do in shorter time frames and still move things forward. On weekday mornings, he handles random tasks. With a studio a mile from his house, he goes home to enjoy lunch with his family. Then, from one to six p.m., he concentrates on painting.
While many artists accompany their creative process with music, Ben listens to podcasts.
"Way too often, fantasy football is my meaningless indulgence," he reveals with a chuckle.
In 2005, Ben moved into his 13-feet-by-90-feet studio in Helper, Utah's downtown, which he describes as having "a Mayberry quality" to it.
"We came here from Idaho Falls because David had retired from the University of Utah and was teaching workshops here," Ben says. "He had an old hotel converted to artists' workspaces and 22 rooms for artists to stay. I interned with him for a couple of years."
It was during one of those workshops that Ben sold his first painting: a 16 x12 still life of roses in a jar.
"A woman taking the workshop loved and asked if she could buy it," he recalls. "I sold it to her for $200." He knows she still has it because they have communicated on Facebook.
In October 2017, Ben purchased an industrial building with plans to rebuild it and relocate his studio there sometime in 2018. The move will expand his working space from 4,000 square feet (his downtown space includes a gallery and a wood shop for building canvases, framing, and crating paintings to ship to galleries and buyers) to 7,000 square feet. And the new headquarters will put him a half-mile closer to home.
"I'll be cutting my commute time in half," he notes with amusement.
Although he says his greatest non-art-related talent has been golf, he claims he was "not good enough" to make it as a professional golfer
"But it helped me a ton with my art career, because I knew what I was looking for: good instructors," he says. These days, hiking and running comprise his recreational pursuits. Despite his former skills on the greens, he doesn't golf.
"It just requires so much energy to stay good at it," he says, noting that playing at a subpar level after his scratch-plus-one handicap of yore merely leads to frustration. Nevertheless, he claims he doesn't miss the game and gets the enjoyment of sporting camaraderie "with a little competition" via 5K runs.
If he couldn't paint, he says, he would "be a designer or architect — something to do with buildings." But, he adds, "I feel so privileged to get to create art. It's a pinch-yourself thing to me. I am very grateful that I get to do it and have support from people to continue."
Ben's greatest fear is being insignificant.
"I do art for some sense of permanence in an impermanent world," he says. "The best compliment I could receive from others is that my work enriches their life in some way."

Tunnel will be second for Cobb County
Georgia's Cobb County is looking to an underground solution to meet anticipated wastewater treatment demands in the southwestern part of the county, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
On March 11, the county commissioners awarded contracts totaling $312 million to engineer and build a 5.5-mile tunnel that will drain about 40% of Cobb, an area south of Ga. 120 in West Cobb.
It will be the second tunnel for Cobb, which opened a 9.5-mile tunnel in East Cobb in 2004.
The South Cobb Tunnel, as it will be called, will average 250 ft in depth as it runs south through bedrock from near the boundary with Douglas County and then runs east to a treatment plant on the Chattahoochee River, the newspaper reported.
Building the tunnel will allow the county to avoid replacing two pumping stations and 16 miles of aging sewer lines, said Steve McCullers, director of the Cobb County Water System.
Work is slated to begin this summer and be completed in 2014.
"This is the largest project ever undertaken by the water system," McCullers said.

UNCASVILLE, Conn. — UConn made short work of Rutgers in the American Athletic Conference semifinals.
UNCASVILLE, Conn. — UConn made short work of Rutgers in the American Athletic Conference semifinals.
The top-ranked Huskies jumped out to a 13-0 lead less than 3 minutes into the game, and led by 31 at the half en route to a 83-57 rout of the 24th-ranked Scarlet Knights on Sunday.
"We got out in transition, we moved the ball great, we got everybody involved, it wasn't just one player," said UConn coach Geno Auriemma. "That entire first 20 minutes was as good of basketball as I could hope for, especially in the postseason."
Conference player of the year Breanna Stewart scored 22 points and Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis added 19, hitting five 3-pointers, as the Huskies (33-0) extended the school's third longest winning streak to 39 games.
UConn had 24 assists on their 33 baskets. Minisink Valley grad Stefanie Dolson had 15 points, Bria Hartley added 12 and nine assists and Moriah Jefferson chipped in with 10 points and seven assists.
"When we're playing like that, it's fun," said Hartley. "I think we all had a great time out there and we really enjoyed it. So, I think we want to keep playing like that the rest of the way."
Connecticut, which won 18 conference tournament championships in the Big East, will play for the inaugural American title Monday against No. 3 Louisville, which beat South Florida 60-56 in the other semifinal.
Briyona Canty had 16 points to lead Rutgers, which fell to 22-9 and must wait to see whether it has done enough to earn an at-large berth into the NCAA tournament.
Rutgers was held scoreless for close to 3� minutes to start the game before Tyler Scaife, the league's freshman of the year, made a layup.
That did little to slow the Huskies.
A 3-point play by Stewart gave the Huskies their first 20-point lead at 25-4, and a few minutes later brought the crowd to its feet with her defense. Up 30-9, she chased down Betnijah Laney and blocked a layup on what appeared to be an easy breakaway after a Rutgers steal and then made a 3-pointer on the other end.
"We're always hustling back, because once someone turns it over and we lose the ball, we want to make up for it," she said.
UConn made better than 58 percent of its shots before intermission and a 3-pointer by Jefferson gave the Huskies 50-19 lead at the break.
Rutgers, which did not attempt a 3-point shot, outscored UConn 38-33 in the second half, going on a 9-3 run to open the period, but it was far too little and much too late.
The Huskies improved to 33-6 against the Scarlet Knight in the final meeting between the two as conference rivals. They are now 8-1 against Rutgers in conference tournament games.
UConn also has beaten Louisville twice this season, by 17 points at home and 20 points last week in Kentucky.
But Auriemma knows the Cardinals have a bit more motivation this time around.
"Not only to win a conference championship, but if they win (Monday) then they are definitely a No. 1 seed," he said. "So, it should be a great atmosphere.

A circuit obfuscator is an algorithm that translates
logic circuits into functionally-equivalent similarly-sized logic circuits that
are hard to understand. While ad hoc obfuscators have been implemented, theoretical
progress has mainly been limited to no-go results. In this work, we propose a
new notion of circuit obfuscation, which we call partial indistinguishability.
We then prove that, in contrast to previous definitions of obfuscation, partial
indistinguishability obfuscation can be achieved by a polynomial-time
algorithm. Specifically, our algorithm re-compiles the given circuit using a
gate that satisfies the
relations of the braid group, and then reduces to a braid
normal form. Variants of our obfuscation algorithm can be applied to both classical
and quantum circuits.

Behind the Scenes: Going Out of Business
Store liquidators are one of the few successful businesses in this recession.
WESTFIELD, N.J., Jan. 15, 2009 -- Driving through downtown, it's hard to miss the bright signs: "Store Closing," "Huge Sale." After 86 years, the local sporting goods store is going out of business and all items must go.
It's a scene repeated all across America as we enter the second year of this recession.
For most, it's a depressing sight. But for Nathan W. McKie Sr., it means another job. He's the guy retailers call when they need to liquidate their goods.
McKie travels the country, spending two, three months at a time in some town far away from home helping a store shut its doors.
He offers advice on prices, runs ads to bring in customers and runs a prize system to reward frequent shoppers.
Business has never been better for him.
Retailers had one of their worst holiday shopping seasons on record and analysts expect many foundering stores now to file for bankruptcy. In 2008, 148,000 stores shut down, the largest number since 2001, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers. Another 73,000 locations may shut their doors in the first half of 2009.
"Our business seems to be good, which is, in many cases, unfortunate for retailers," said Gary Wright, president of G.A. Wright Sales, which employees McKie as a consultant.
Wright's company typically runs 400 to 500 promotional and liquidation sales in a year. He said he now sees more demand for store closings.
"Business was up 20 percent in 2008, and I would imagine it will be up at least that much in 2009," Wright said.
Is Your Store Struggling to Stay in Business or Was It Recently Forced to Close? Share Your Story With ABC News.
Store owners and managers know how to sell their goods, he said, but a closing is "a very unique activity.
"It's very intense, it's very problematic," he said. "You have one chance to do it right."
Going-Out-of-Business Sale
Take the case of The Leader Store, the sporting goods store in suburban New Jersey that McKie is currently liquidating. Two brothers own the business and are closing the store as part of a larger retail and residential renovation to the building, which they also own.
The first step was to send a mass mailing to everybody in the area.
"You are the first to know," sad the letter announcing the closing. "We are extending a special invitation to our local customers and wonderful friends like you to come to our store … one week before we publicly announce this sale in the newspaper."
The letter -- provided by McKie but signed by the owners -- then goes on to say that only those who received the letter are invited.
"However, feel free to bring a friend or relative who did not receive an invitation as your guest," it said. "You will have the first opportunity to shop and save on our entire inventory before many items are sold out."
And come they did. On the sale's second day last week, dozens of customers passed through the doors, the majority holding on to the letter.
McKie said he usually gets a 6 to 10 percent return from the initial mailing.
"My husband worked here when he was in high school," said Robin Kabokow, an area resident who was shopping at The Leader Store last week. "It's very sad to me. It's like an institution. It's the goodbye of mom and pops."
Kabokow's eyes than scanned across Westfield's downtown, which features Ann Taylor, Esprit, Banana Republic and Anthology, and said: "All the mall stores are here now."
The Big Prize Giveaway
To get return customers, McKie signs up people for a prize giveaway. The more you spend and the more often you come back into the store, the more likely you are to get a new TV, iPod or DVD player. Basically, the top 10 shoppers during the sale period win the prizes valued from $850 down to $50.
But the real key to the contest is to get customer addresses. Each week of the sale, McKie will send them another mailing, keeping them posted on the latest details of the sale, trying to get them to walk through the door again.
At the start of the sale, everything in the store was at least 20 percent off, with some hard-to-sell items discounted further. The goal of the sale is to get as much money as possible for the retailer.
"For the most part, the people coming in in the beginning are familiar with the store," McKie said. "They tend to be locals and bought items not so much because of the sale but because they needed the goods. … The bottom-feeders come in for half-off or less. As annoying as it is, you need those folks."
At the very end, some items might be offered for 90 percent off. But some things just won't sell -- like that XXL T-shirt or the 1970s-style pants -- and an auctioneer is brought in.
Deep Discounts
Ellen Davis, vice president for public relations at the National Retail Federation, said that a going-out-of-business sale really can be "a goldmine for a shopper."
The sales often start out with just 20 or 25 percent off. The biggest discounts come at the end, but there's no guarantee that those items will be the merchandise you want to buy.
"There's a little bit of a game of chicken involved," Davis said. "If you don't buy it at 50 percent off, it might be 70 [percent] or 80 percent off next -- or it might be gone."
The other key to the sale: timing the goods with the seasons. The Leader Store's sale goes through March 28. Selling ski gear at the end of the sale is going to be pointless. And now, with record cold temperatures hitting the region, it is going to be tough to sell soccer cleats.
"People are looking for a discount, but it's got to be stuff they want to buy," McKie said.
One thing McKie and Wright said they never do is mark up prices before slashing them for a sale.
"If people come in and see the 'regular' price is higher than they are used to, the whole sale is undermined," McKie said. "It's pretty obvious."
While many customers flock to going-out-of-business sales hoping to get a deal, many are skeptical.
Wright said his ads are designed to enhance credibility. For instance, saying that shelves, lights, desks and other store fixtures are for sale adds credibility. The company also doesn't say that items are 20 to 70 percent off. Instead, they say at least 20 percent. Consumers don't like ranges.
"We believe that consumers are skeptical when we say we're conducting a liquidation sale," Wright said.
Beware of Scams
Richard Eppstein, president of the Northwest Ohio Better Business Bureau, said that consumers should have their doubts.
Consumers can find some good bargains, Eppstein said, but "some liquidators engage in very dishonest practices."
"This has been a very unusual year for retailing," he added. "We have never seen so many closing and going-out-of business sales during the Christmas season."
First, some stores that have going-out-of-business sales never actually go out of business. But a more common approach, Eppstein said, is for liquidators to bring in their own goods. The first 30 days of a sale might be regular items and then "all of a sudden, new things show up, products that were clearly never part of that store's inventory."
"That's misleading, that's dishonest and that's deceptive," Eppstein said.
If you find such problems, he said to report them to your local Better Business Bureau, which could investigate and make it known to the public that the sale is a sham.
That said, Eppstein noted that there are plenty of legitimate going-out-of-business sales. Consumers just need to know the risks.
Often, there are no returns or exchanges because consumers give up that right, essentially, for a lower price.
Eppstein also warned shoppers to know their prices and comparison shop.
"What we don't want to do is assume," he said, "that because the big banner on the wall says 80 percent off that it is a real bargain."

Q&A: PCT hiker Gail D. Storey's "I Promise Not to Suffer" a treat
Anyone who's ever put a relationship through the great-outdoors meat grinder to see what's left of it on the other side can relate to Gail D. Storey's tale of long-distance hiking with her husband, Porter. Even the title, "I Promise Not to Suffer: A Fool for Love Hikes the Pacific Crest Trail" (Mountaineers Books, 2013), immediately evokes those trade-off moments required to get through such an ordeal.
The couple moved to Boulder from Houston in 2005, the year after they hiked the PCT. "It's so beautiful here, perfect for hiking and being outside," Storey says. "I try to get my work done early and get outside whenever I can."
Storey wasn't always that enthusiastic about the outdoors. In fact, the book got the title while the couple was already on the PCT — a 2,663-mile course from Mexico to Canada through California, Oregon and Washington that climbs through the Sierra Nevada and Cascade mountains — a little more than 600 miles into the hike, as Storey was questioning, not for the first or last time, whether she should quit.
