Some patients have reported symptoms in their feet in addition to or instead of their hands.
Slideshow: Signs and Symptoms of Cold Hands Syndrome
Back to Top
Cold hands syndrome occurs as a result of blocked or constricted blood vessels, caused by a vascular disorder (a cold hand disease) or an injury, such as:
- Blood clotting
- Hand trauma, including occupational or recreational/sports injury (e.g., laceration wounds, fractures or penetrating injuries)
- Diseases that cause narrowing of the blood vessels in your hand and fingers, such as arteriosclerosis
- Raynaud's disease (primary Raynaud's)
- Raynaud's phenomenon/syndrome (secondary Raynaud's), caused by autoimmune or connective tissue disease (e.g., lupus, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome)
- Tumors or vascular malformations that cause abnormal blood flow between veins and arteries
- Frostbite

GAM founding member and director Jeremy Smouha (pictured) has left the firm to launch a UK office for Swiss-based corporate bond specialist Atlanticomnium.
The bond boutique will launch into the UK under Smouha, who joins as chief executive. It will continue its long-standing relationship with GAM, which is a distributor of its funds.
Smouha, who was formerly a director at GAM, said he felt it was time to step back from the role to launch a London office for Atlanticomnium to expand its European distribution. He remains a senior adviser to GAM.
The London office will promote the GAM Star Credit Opportunities fund, which was launched last year and is based on a fund Atlanticomnium has run since 1985. Managed by Smouha's brother Anthony.
As Smouha anticipates the 30-year bull market in bonds to end soon, he expects Atlanticomnium's focus on backing higher yielding junior debt in quality companies to help differentiate it from competitors.
'We suspect the end of the 30-year bull market is here, so we are concentrating on having a very low duration. We will do this by trying to have high coupons to reduce interest rate sensitivity and we have long experience in buying discounted floating rate notes,' he said.
Atlanticomnium will target investment managers, IFAs and private clients, alongside charities and pension funds. The boutique currently manages around $700 million, with around $500 million in funds.

Yup, that was the Eye of the P. Bear right there. The original art for this comic is for sale!
So yeah, originally stuff like this was going to be saved for the book, the full-page fully-colored hand drawn stuff, but this mini-saga just kind of weaved it's way into the regular strips on me and so I ended up putting it here on the site. But these just take a bit long with my busy schedule to do with any frequency. So hang with me as we get Osborne's beak back and I return to my sweet and simple updates.
My dad sent me a link to this ridiculously cute video of a baby polar bear the other day. I'm guessing this is the one being raised by zookeepers that is causing lots of fuss among naturalist groups. Dang he's a cute little guy, if they could just keep them that size.
60 Minutes has a segment called "The Age of Warming". In addition to yet more information about global warming, there are video clips of Antarctica and penguins and discussion of the loss of ice as well as the penguin populations.
Also in case you missed it, a 33 foot-long colossal squid was caught in Antarctic waters. They were pondering freezing or microwaving it, I'm sure in the end they just chopped it up and it's now available at your local sushi bar.

Editor's note: Mikelley is a junior at Elmont High School. She wrote this review as part of Hofstra University's recent High School Summer Journalism Institute. It is the first in a series of institute participants' works that the Herald will publish in the coming days and weeks.
Art has always been a way for people to express their truest feelings. Art is a window to the mind, heart and soul.
The "Converging Voices: Gender and Identity" show at the Emily Lowe gallery at Hofstra University captivated me. Every piece of art had a message. Sometimes it was up to the individual to decipher it.
The Guerrilla Girls' piece "Do Women Have to Be Naked to Get Into the Met. Museum?" and Philemona Williamson's "Golden Afternoon" are two creations that touched me.
The Guerrilla Girls piece is a poster that expresses the conflicts that women face in getting recognized for their work. The reason that this poster captures me is because the issues expressed in it are still very real today. The piece shows how some people are ignorant to the changing times.
Williamson's "Golden Afternoon" is an oil painting. It shows three girls all in the same dress. The one on the left is dark in skin tone. The girl on the right has a very light skin tone. I felt the girl in the middle had a skin tone that was in between the two other girls. They all appear to be in the middle of a fight. The yellow dresses that all the girls are wearing show me that we're all the same inside. The fight and the skin tones of the girls show the struggle of race. The girl in the middle seems to be in conflict with which race to identify.
All the pieces in the gallery had a message: That everyone has a struggle, no matter what race, gender or skin tone you are. You cannot be so stuck in your own struggles that you think you're alone, because others go through struggles that are similar to yours.
"Converging Voices" will run through Dec. 15 at Hofstra's Emily Lowe Gallery.

Clarkson University's Sokolov to Speak About Nanostructured Silica Colloids at NanoTech 2008 in Boston
[A photograph for media use is available at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/photos/isokolov.jpg ]
Clarkson University Professor Igor Sokolov will give an invited lecture in Boston this June at NanoTech 2008, a conference organized by the Nano Science and Technology Institute (NSTI).
Sokolov is one of eight speakers who will present to 4,000 attendees and 400 exhibitors in the Nanoparticles in Soft Materials - Colloidal Systems symposium, one of the fastest growing areas of the nanotech conferences. Other invited lectures are presented by leading experts in their respective fields.
Sokolov will discuss " Self-Assembly of Nanoporous Silica Colloids: from Fundamentals to Applications." Self-assembly is viewed as the most attractive approach in building nanostructures. Nanoporous silica particles are the micron-size particles (about 1/10th of a human hair), which have nanometer-size channels (1 nanometer is one-billionth of a meter). These particles are useful for various sensing, photonic, and catalytic applications. The study of the assembly mechanism can contribute a new way of thinking about synthesis of materials over length scales of tens of microns that is typically outside of the range of solid state science. The results of this research can also provide a vital link to understanding the growth of biological objects.
His research focuses on developing methods for controlling the architecture of self-assembled materials with structural features on nanoscale, and utilizing such materials for physical, chemical, and biological sensing, drug delivery, optics, development of composite materials with improved properties, etc.
Sokolov received his doctoral degree in physics from the Soviet Bureau of Standards (Russian NIST), in 1991. He is a member of the American Physical Society, American Chemical Society, Material Research Society, American Biophysical Society, and American Association of Mechanical Engineers. He has authored about 100 refereed publications, has filed 18 patents, delivered 67 invited lectures, seminars, conference presentations; and participated in 64 conferences with contributed presentations. He is an active consultant with several major pharmaceutical and chemical companies.
Clarkson University crosses the boundaries of disciplines, nations and cultures in order for discovery, engineering innovation and enterprise to come together. As a result, faculty and graduates grasp the full impact of their calling, direct their research to the world's pressing issues and lead with confidence and distinction. One in seven alumni is already a CEO or other senior executive. Located in Potsdam, N.Y., just outside the six-million-acre Adirondack Park, Clarkson is home to 3,000 students preparing for rewarding careers through 50 rigorous programs of study in engineering, business, arts, science, and health sciences, as well as unparalleled outdoor recreation and life experiences beyond the classroom.

G1528, Reviewed October 1993
A debris basin provides storage for silt, sand, gravel, or other debris moving from adjacent lands. The debris causes damage when it moves with runoff water from its source on land adjacent to a landowner's farm and deposits as sediment in ponds, waterways, diversions, bottomland fields or other developed areas. The landowner has no means of controlling the movement of the debris at its source on land adjacent to his or her farm and therefore must develop the debris basin on his or her own land to control the sediment before it causes damage.
The debris basin consists of an earth dam or other barrier constructed across a drainageway or other suitable location for collecting sediment. The dam is provided with properly designed spillways to dispose of excess runoff water at safe velocities that will not damage the dam or other improvements.
The sediment basin is a small pool of water through which the runoff from the adjacent land must flow. As the silt-laden runoff flows through the pool, it slows down and loses its capacity to carry the larger silt particles, which drop out into the pool.
The capacity of the basin should be not less than the volume of sediment expected to be deposited in the pool during the planned useful life of the proposed improvements it is designed to protect. The capacity may be reduced where it is determined that periodic removal of the debris will be practical. In most cases, the basin should have a capacity to contain an estimated 10-year sediment yield from the watershed area. In no case should the capacity be less than a two-year yield. For cultivated land, the Universal Soil Loss Equation may be used in determining the soil loss. Use the following guidelines and Table 1 for determining the sediment yield from drainage areas of 100 acres or less.
Table 1Sediment storage capacity for debris basin having drainage area of 100 acres or less (based on 10-year sediment storage capacity)
Condition A (high sediment yield)Area may be similar to one of the following:
Condition B (medium sediment yield)Area may be similar to one of the following:
Condition C (low sediment yield)Area is in permanent vegetative cover with minor gully erosion.

We drove a T6 Inscription, with the turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder, eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. With peak horsepower of 316, the acceleration comes evenly and without drama over the rev range. Weighing 4,054 pounds, it can accelerate from 0 to 60 in 5.6 seconds, and has a top speed of 140 mph.
In any of the three driving modes, the eight-speed automatic is well matched to the powerband of the T6, which comes on early.
The Economy mode slows the transmission response, along with throttle response. Comfort, the default mode, picks up the pace while remaining true to its word. There's also a Dynamic mode, an off-road mode that engages hill descent control, increases steering assist, and slows throttle and shift response, and a custom mode.
The driving modes also adjust the suspension response in all models but the Momentum. The suspension is double wishbone front, and transverse leaf spring with links in the rear. Our Inscription had the available adaptive dampers and air suspension. It lowers itself at speed and raises itself when ground clearance is needed.
In the Economy mode, less boost goes to the dampers and steering, so the XC60 feels dull and heavy. The Comfort mode makes it all feel creamy. The Dynamic mode is stimulating (it also cuts out the standard Stop/Start system). Our Inscription had optional 20-inch wheels to go with the all-wheel drive; we found the Dynamic mode helped it track better. With the adaptive dampers, the XC60 doesn't engage the road, it smothers it.
The T5 gets the 250-horsepower 2.0-liter turbo four engine. Measured with a stopwatch, it's only a bit slower than the T6, with a zero-to-sixty acceleration time of 6.4 seconds, on its way to the same 140-mph top speed.
The T8 plug-in hybrid connects the turbo engine to an electric motor and a 10.4-kw battery pack, to make 400 horsepower. Despite its weight of 4600 pounds, it will accelerate from zero to sixty in 4.9 seconds, says Volvo. T8 plug-in hybrids get their own modes that conserve battery power or set the engine to charge the battery.
The styling is mainstream. It's not tall and bluff like the XC90, although it tries to look tall with tricks like a high grille, and tall taillamps that reach to the roof. The high shoulder line makes the body look like a rising wedge, like a BMW X3.
The best part are the slim hammer-shaped LEDs used for daytime running lamps called Thor's Hammer.
The cabin is elegant and serene, while being less minimalist than the Volvo luxury sedans, and cozier than the XC90 SUV. The cabin caters to the senses, it doesn't assault them. It has a portrait-style touchscreen like few others, McLaren and Tesla to name two. The driftwood-trimmed dashboard soothes the eyes.
Volvo's colorful Sensus infotainment system is revised with new tiles, and icons moved for better visibility. The 9-inch portrait-style screen makes perfect sense, especially with navigation. It's the type of screen used in the Tesla Model S and Model X.
The cabin has a cocoon-like quality, with glass that tilts inward and a laid-back center console. The serenity is heightened by the absence of knobs and buttons.
The power front seats are deep, pocketed, and well-padded. Six-footers have room for their knees and heads in the rear, even with the standard panoramic roof. A third adult can briefly fit in the rear, or maybe more comfortably if less likely three car seats.
There's 29.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seat, about twice the size of a trunk. That expands to an almost-vast 68.7 cubic feet when you fold down the rear seat.
The all-new Volvo XC60 brings more interior room on a longer wheelbase, while minimizing overall length. The styling is smooth. The self-steering steps (in times of emergency) are significant. The T6 powertrain, at least, is impressive, with an engine that's both turbocharged and supercharged.
Sam Moses contributed to this report.
The Volvo XC60 comes in T5 ($41,500), T6 ($44,900), T8 ($52,900) versions. There are three trims: Momentum, R-Design, and Inscription.
The R-Design gets sport seats, black mesh grille, hands-free tailgate, 12.3-inch digital display that replaces the standard gauges, 19-inch wheels, navigation, and paddle shift controls (it's the only model to get them). A notable option is 21-inch wheels with wide summer tires.
Inscription gets a stitched dash, driftwood trim, navigation, and four-zone climate control.
Optional features include soft Nappa Leather seats with ventilation and massage, Bowers & Wilkins Premium Sound, and four-corner air suspension.

About Masao Yamamoto
In his delicate black-and-white photographs, Masao Yamamoto tries to capture the harmonious details of life that most of us miss. He gained initial renown for his multi-part installations consisting of tea-stained, torn, and creased prints that, through their evocation of antiquity, encourage reflection on memory and the passage of time. More recently, the painter-turned-photographer has presented larger, though still subtle, single-framed prints of depopulated Japanese nature scenes, as in the series "Kawa=Flow" and "Shizuka=Cleanse". In describing his quietly beautiful work, Yamamoto explains that he feels "the presence of many 'treasures' breathing quietly in nature," which he tries to capture "with both my eyes and my camera." He calls this presence "Shizuka," meaning cleansed, pure, clear, and untainted. Nude women elegantly floating amidst black backdrops are another frequent subject.

Nashua train derailment closes Bridge Street crossingBy BENJAMIN C. KLEIN
Union Leader Correspondent
March 07. 2013 8:50PM
NASHUA - No one was hurt in a 10-car train derailment in the area of Bridge St. in Nashua on Thursday night, but one of the derailed cars is causing concern to rail, police and fire officials because it is putting pressure on the trestle it rests upon.
Sgt. William Dillon of Nashua police said that while the contents of the train are unknown, he would have been informed if there was anything hazardous. He added railroad officials have informed him that the derailment occurred due to a mechanical issue.
While Dillon said there is no current fear the trestle could collapse due to the damage and pressure from the derailed train car, he called the situation a "potential hazard."
The train accident, which was first called in at 7:14 p.m., has forced the closure of the rail crossing at Bridge St., with eight cars derailed behind it and two cars derailed in front of it. Dillon said he could not give a firm estimate as to when the road would reopen.
The fire department is currently responding to the scene, which already has police and railroad officials on site.
Despite multiple cars derailing, Dillon said officers on the scene have informed him that all the train cars are still upright and that there is no hope of repairing the train on-site.
Police did not know who the owner or operator of the train is.
Dillon said railroad officials have told him they are concerned about the integrity of the trestle, which Dillon said is very old. Dillion added the worst-case scenario as he understands it, is the trestle being rendered unusable.
If the trestle is damaged beyond use, Dillion said it could create a problem for rail transportation in southern New Hampshire. "That trestle is on a heavily traveled train route, two or three trains a day use it."
However, complicating matters is the weather, Dillon explained. It was snowing, cold and wet at the site of the crash, hampering first responders.
At the time when the accident first occurred, Police officials said vehicle traffic was heavily backed up, but traffic dissipated when police rerouted everyone through a local neighborhood.
With so many cars derailed and rail and fire officials on site being more concerned with the derailed car potentially damaging the trestle, Dillon said he has no idea when the rail crossing at Bridge St. will reopen.
"There are a large number of rails to be put back on the railroad system along with getting the cars away from trestle itself. Given those factors the rail crossing will not reopen right away, and I am sure the bad weather will play a part in how long it takes."
In a bit of good news Dillon said that many of the cars that derailed were empty, and that those that weren't, "didn't have anything hazardous in them."

Review: Fulton Market Kitchen
311 N. Sangamon St. 312-733-6900
Rating: 3 (out of four) Off to a good start
A mix of art galleries and big-name restaurants mixed in with meatpacking plants is what makes the West Loop a destination. After living in the neighborhood for nearly a decade, Daniel Alonso (of Wicker Park tapas bar Black Bull) partnered up with former Victor Hotel owner Relu Stan to turn that space into his own mixed-media creation.
Victor Hotel was a club, not a hotel, and Fulton Market Kitchen is on Sangamon Street, not Fulton, but stay with me here. When it came to filling this massive, high-ceilinged, multi-roomed bar and restaurant, Alonso enlisted a legion of local artists and was inspired by everything from the '80s art scene in New York to the Wynwood Walls, a series of street-art murals in Miami, he said. I dropped in on opening weekend to see whether the ideas came together.
"What I was naturally fearful of is … [oftentimes] when artwork is displayed in a cafe or a bar or a restaurant, it feels very decorative," said Alonso. "It's kind of like, four paintings and there's an artist's note underneath … 'oil on canvas, call for price.' I want it to be a very integrated part of the overall design." By combining forces with Alex Morales of Smartmouth Designs and Franklin Riley of FM Gallery, Alonso managed to make the space and art feel one and the same, from a massive mural by graffiti artist Erni Vales to a trio of works by Hebru Brantley above a pair of massive wooden carriage doors. At a trendy art gallery opening, sometimes the scene—with creative types mingling and wine flowing freely—is just as interesting as what's on the walls. That's how it felt here after dark, as the dinner crowd gave way to cocktail dresses and cleavage, fashionable dudes working leather blazers and an appearance from party scene fixtures the Landan twins.
I can forgive the cutesiness of the naming the courses first, second and third "canvases." I can even tolerate the cocktail menu being sectioned off into "Renaissance" for classics and "Modern: First gallery showings" for funky creations such as the beet juice-based Beetlejuice Beetlejuice ($12). But I don't think the owners were quite thinking it through when they glued the menu pages inside art history books from the '60s. Novel idea in theory, but what actually happens is the whole table smells like an old, dusty library every time you open a menu. There's nothing less appetizing than your hands smelling like eau de old book when you lift your cocktail to your lips or snatch the last fry from the table.
Our server recommended that each person order a first, second and third course for dinner, which will run about $50-$75 per person, not including drinks or tip. If you're not in the market or mood for a full three-course dinner, as my table was, you can share and snack on a handful of plates instead. Executive chef James Gottwald (former Rockit Ranch Productions culinary director) is behind the food menu; like a stroll through an art museum, some things dazzled while others just didn't do it for me. Scallop crudo ($12), with its thin slivers of ruby beet and coral grapefruit plus a sprinkle of pink peppercorn, looked like a work of art but lacked the zing or zip that makes a good crudo. I actually dug the other scallop appetizer—which the kitchen mistakenly sent out instead and our server apologized for on the spot—much more, with its deep-fried nuggets of bay scallop and sweetbreads matched with lemon, rich truffle aioli and salty tobiko. A too-heavy char on the grilled octopus ($13) overpowered the tomatoes, vinaigrette and frisee it was served with, but rye-crusted salmon with braised red cabbage, pickled onions, fried capers, dill and creamy yogurt ($24) had my whole table raving.
Fulton Market Kitchen could have done what so many restaurants do and roll out a short cocktail menu that riffs on the classics. Instead, the cocktail menu is bigger than the food menu—and as far as new hangouts go, is only rivaled by recently opened Celeste in its length and creativity. Skinny margarita types can up their game with the What's Up Doc ($12), a carrot-ginger-lemon-tarragon concoction that sounds straight out of a juice bar, plus vodka. Whiskey drinkers can expand their palates with the cinnamon- and anise-laced Odd Job ($12). For those who want to drink their dessert, there's the Two Month Holiday ($11), a pint of a Lion stout from Sri Lanka and a house-made Irish cream shot, or the Trust Fall ($12), a creamy cognac confection with a sea salt rim. Even the highballs (five choices, all $10)—simple cocktails consisting of a spirit, mixer and ice (like scotch and soda)—will keep you guessing with funky combos such as Peter and the Wolf made from herbal Fernet Branca with root beer, or smoky mezcal with Jarritos lime soda in the awesomely named Ecto Non-Cooler ('80s kids, are you with me?). I couldn't find a mixologist's name credited anywhere on the menu, but options such as the F-Mkt-K Mixology—a Coors Banquet can and Heaven Hill bourbon for $5—made it clear that whoever created the drink menu doesn't take things too seriously. It turns out the brains behind the booze is beverage director Brian Sturgulewski, a Drumbar bartender who is transitioning to Fulton Market Kitchen full-time. (P.S. You might recognize him as a 2014 Best Bartender finalist.)
I've seen art-themed hangouts fall flat—Gallery Bar in River North and Fame in Wicker Park when they opened last summer come to mind—but Fulton Market Kitchen manages to harness the energy of a can-it-get-any-hotter neighborhood. Though this isn't the first place I'd return to for a full dinner in this part of town, I could see coming here for cocktails after dinner on Randolph Street to or to dazzle out-of-town guests with the artsy ambiance. Considering that the West Loop bubbling over with even more development—Soho House, Nobu Hotel and Restaurant and Google's future Chicago headquarters, to name a few projects in the works—Fulton Market Kitchen is poised to keep the party going.

Loved it: The large first-come, first-served lounge. It's nice to have someplace in the neighborhood that you can come for just drinks and a bite to eat without being turned away for not having a res.
Hated it: My too-small table. There was no way for my group for three to fit our sharing plates, cocktails, the oversized book menu and then more than a dish or two at the same time. It was like a game of Jenga for the wait staff to fit everything.
Deja vu: Remember those creepy skeleton marionettes from Angels & Mariachis, the Wicker Park hangout that managing partner Daniel Alonso ran before turning it into the current concept, Black Bull? Alonso had artist Franklin Riley repurpose them into an equally creepy but very cool sculpture in the hallway near the restrooms.
Head-scratcher: Since the menu is fairly polished—think crudos, carpaccios and tartares--it felt odd that our server's first recommendation was the fries ($7). They're good, but nothing to brag about compared to The Publican's famous frites a few paces down Fulton Market.

Do you exercise every day—pounding the pavement, breaking a sweat, raising your heart rate—all in the name of good health? Well, recent studies suggest that when it comes to your risk of premature death, all that physical activity may not matter as much as you think.Prolonged periods of inactivity—best described as sitting a lot—is unhealthy. Deadly, even. In a survey of some 220,000 adults, those who sat for more than eight hours a day had a 15 per cent greater risk of dying within three years than those who sat for fewer than four hours a day, found a March study published in theArchives of Internal Medicine. This risk still held true for those who spent part of their day exercising. The results were worse for those who sat for 11 hours or more a day. They had a 40 per cent greater risk of early death compared to those who sat for under four hours. It should be noted, researchers say, that the study didn't prove that sitting caused this risk. It could very well be that people who tend to sit longer are less healthy or have a condition that makes it difficult to walk or stand. Further studies to clarify the relationship between sitting and mortality are needed.
[See: 10 Hotspots for Human Longevity]
Previous studies, though, have discovered similar results. In 2010, the American Cancer Society released a report in the American Journal of Epidemiology stating that men who sat for six hours or more a day in their leisure time had an overall death rate that was nearly 20 per cent higher than men who sat for three hours or less in the 14-year follow-up period. Women who sat for more than six hours a day had a death rate that was almost 40 per cent higher. And again, dedicated exercise had no neutralising effect.
"The human being is designed to move," says James Levine, an endocrinologist and researcher at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. "You need to move your body. If you stop your body, idle it—which sitting is—it crumbles on every level." What can result is an increased risk of obesity, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, cancer, depression, and possibly Alzheimer's disease, says Levine. A recent study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine even observed that women who spent four to seven hours a day sitting showed early symptoms of type 2 diabetes. How can this be, especially for those fitness-minded folks who make an effort to feel the burn?
Imagine if you will, says Levine, a person who works an eight-hour day and goes to the gym three days a week. She wakes up, gets in the car, goes to the office, and sits at her desk all day. Her blood sugar— when sustained at high levels, can lead to multiple health problems like diabetes, strokes, and nerve damage— and her triglycerides—a fat in the blood, which, at elevated levels, can affect heart health— are riding high the whole day due to inactivity. Then she goes to the gym, and for the first time that day, her blood sugar and triglycerides are suppressed.
Now imagine the person who never goes to the gym, but is active for about 15 minutes out of every hour during the day. That person drives down her blood sugar and triglyceride levels over and over and over again. "And that repeated activity throughout the day has a bigger total effect on blood sugar and triglycerides than that one episode at the gym." In the long run, Levine explains, "those sustained pulses of low-grade activity are going to have more of an impact on metabolic parameters than a three-times-a-week visit to the gym." However, Levine says, it should be emphasised that going to the gym certainly can't hurt.
So what does this mean for the typical desk jockey? Studies show that the average American sits for about eight hours a day. "Sitting is like a disease," says Edward Phillips, assistant professor of physical medicine and rehabilitation at Harvard Medical School. "The goal is to avoid prolonged sitting and to add any kind of physical activity to your day." Any movement you can do, even something as simple as tapping your feet, is a start, says Phillips. With that in mind, these suggestions can help if you're strapped to a desk for hours on end:
[See: Is Your Job Killing You? How Work Influences Longevity]
Simply stand. "In terms of calorie burn, standing can help," says Levine. Whether at a meeting or talking on the phone, just stand. "If you can get a person standing, they're more likely to be up and moving."
If you have to sit, then why does it have to be on a chair? Use a therapy ball and one that's properly sized so that the hips and knees are at 90 degrees. "Just by trying to maintain stability on a therapy ball," says Phillips, "you're working your core muscles, [the muscles in your abdomen, hips, back, and pelvis], which tend to be weak."
Forget the elevator and take the stairs. Walking up the stairs can burn as many calories in a 30-minute period as can cycling at 12 to 14 miles per hour. Just don't do it all at one time. Spread it out throughout the day. Go to the bathroom on another floor or fax that document from a different department.
Keep it moving. Conduct your meetings on the go by walking and talking. Forget modern technology like E-mail and instant messaging and do it the old-fashioned way: Visit your colleague to deliver your message. Take a trip or two to the water cooler. Pace back and forth while you're on the phone. Take your lunch outside, preferably somewhere several blocks away.
Bring fitness equipment to the office. Dumbbells and resistance bands offer discrete ways to get in some exercise. "Do two-arm bicep curls while staring at your computer screen," says Tom Seabourne, author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Quick Total Body Workouts. "Then bring heavier weights to the office as you get stronger."
Get a treadmill desk if you're able. "You're walking while you're typing or talking on the phone, and you don't have to break a sweat," says Phillips. Levine's research—he created the treadmill desk—shows that a person can burn 100 extra calories every hour while walking less than one mile per hour.
To live longer, you don't have to log extra time at the gym, though again, it can be a beneficial component to your overall routine. "Lifestyle exercises [like these] don't take time out of your schedule," says Phillips. "You just have to be mindful and plan ways to stay active."
And remember when your mother always reprimanded you for not sitting still? Well, we're here to tell you to fidget and feel great.

My MythTV System
I built this system in June 2006. I wanted reasonably priced system to record SD cable. It is also the frontend so it had to be small and quiet. I was able to use some old parts I had along with a low priced CPU and motherboard. The SATA controller enabled me to use some newer hard drives with higher capacities and speeds.
The results so far have been good. My WAF is very high and, after I pulled out the Geforce fan (with no ill effects for 7 months), it has been very quiet.

Samsung spins up 250GB micro hard drive
The 1.8in HDD with integrated USB
Samsung has introduced a 1.8in hard drive with a whopping - relatively speaking, of course - 250GB capacity.
So much, perhaps, for claims the South Korean giant is getting out of the 1.8in HDD business to focus instead on solid-state drives.
The Spinpoint N3U is aimed primarily at external hard drives rather than devices like netbooks and music players - kit traditionally associated with 1.8in HDDs. That's because it uses USB rather than a parallel ATA or Sata connection.
Samsung's SpinPoint N3U: USB connected
That makes it ideal for Sammy's S1 Mini range - reviewed here - of 1.8in external HDDs.
Still, Samsung has its eye on other roles. It claimed the N3U uses up 40 per cent less power than an equivalent-capacity 2.5in HDD. That may well appeal to netbook makers looking to extend battery life yet deliver the kind of capacity they currently turn to 2.5in Sata HDDs to provide.
That said, the N3U only spins at 3600rpm - not enough for a notebook, perhaps, but fine for a netbook.
N3Us are also available with 120GB, 160GB and 200GB capacities. The 250GB model is priced at $199 (£124/€143). ®

Feb 14, 2007 EERE Network News
The Secretariat of the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) announced
Monday that an 8.75-megawatt wind facility in Gujurat,
India, is the 500th project to be registered under
the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism
(CDM). The Kyoto Protocol specifies greenhouse gas
reduction requirements for its participating countries,
but allows countries to earn credits toward those
requirements through emissions-reducing investments
in developing countries. Even though developing
countries don't have specific reduction goals, the
CDM helps reduce the growth of greenhouse gas emissions
in those countries. The United States is not participating
in the Kyoto Protocol.
According to the UNFCCC, CDM projects are being
conducted in more than 40 countries and have so
far generated more than 31 million certified emission
reduction units, each of which is equivalent to
one ton of carbon dioxide. The leading countries
for CDM projects are, in order, India, Brazil, Mexico,
and China. The UNFCCC expects the CDM to help avoid
more than 1.8 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions
by 2012, which marks the end of the first commitment
period of the Kyoto Protocol. That amount of carbon
dioxide is equivalent to the combined annual emissions
of Canada, France, Spain, and Switzerland.

A committee of University of Colorado faculty members tasked with reviewing what happened to tenured sociology professor Patti Adler determined that administrators failed to follow several university policies and procedures and, in doing so, violated her academic freedom and tarnished her reputation.
"The committee finds that the failure of the administration (the chair of sociology and the deans) to follow established policy and procedures proved costly to professor Adler, the university's reputation and academic freedom," according to the committee's report, which was made public Thursday.
The ad hoc committee of the Boulder Faculty Assembly, made up of seven faculty members, was created in January to identify the facts in the Adler situation, what policies were or were not followed, if there were any academic freedom violations and how to prevent a similar situation going forward.
Peggy Jobe, a faculty member in CU's libraries and the committee chairwoman, explained the group's findings at a meeting of the faculty assembly late Thursday afternoon.
Among them:
The Office of Discrimination and Harassment visited Adler's "Deviance in U.S. Society" class without her knowledge, which created a culture of fear among the faculty and violated her academic freedom. The committee recommended that the office review its policies, and include that it will not attend classes.
Administrators failed to follow established procedures when they sanctioned Adler by removing her from "Deviance," and they did not inform Adler of her rights as a faculty member, including her right to appeal that sanction.
Administrators violated Adler's academic freedom by conflating a lecture about sexual material with sexual harassment.
The situation tarnished Adler's reputation, and the committee recommended that the university take steps to repair that damage.
The committee recommended broadly that administrators and faculty members review and better understand university policies, including faculty rights and responsibilities, and revisit or clarify some policies, including those of the Office of Discrimination and Harassment.
Boulder Faculty Assembly Chairman Paul Chinowsky read aloud a statement from Chancellor Phil DiStefano, responding to the committee's report.
"I agree with the report's main recommendation that the most effective way to move the campus forward is continued and consistent collaboration between faculty, administration and students," DiStefano said in the statement. "I will ensure that we achieve a better understanding of faculty and student rights and responsibilities, of (Office of Discrimination and Harassment) processes and the role of administrative oversight of these same processes."
A university spokesman declined to comment further.
Adler: 'Gratified'
Adler, who is not a member of the faculty assembly, attended the meeting.
The professor gained international attention last semester when administrators removed her from teaching her 500-person "Deviance" course, which includes a lecture on prostitution.
That lecture includes a skit using undergraduate teaching assistants, who portray various types of prostitutes and pimps.
Officials, who eventually reinstated Adler, said they heard from students who felt coerced into participating in the skit.
Adler maintained that her students acted in the skit willingly and always had the option not to participate. She has since announced her retirement at the end of May and has canceled the skit in her spring semester class.
In an interview with the Camera, Adler said she was mostly pleased with the committee's findings, but wished it would have addressed other issues, such as the administration's attempts to force her into early retirement through threats that she would be fired if she stayed at the university and one complainant came forward.
"I was gratified that they found no fault with me and placed wrongdoing entirely on the administration," she said. "They spelled out several severe violations of policy, and I do wish it had gone further."
Adler said the campuswide message sent by Provost Russ Moore did the most damage to her reputation. In that message, Moore suggested that Adler may have violated the university's sexual harassment policy.
Several outside organizations have called for Moore to rescind that statement and apologize to Adler. Through campus spokesmen, he has declined.
Adler said she would be surprised if the administration accepted the committee's recommendation to repair her reputation.

add me at -isushi-
Would be nice to have that function in the iPad version as well, not just the history.
how do you search users now? what happened to the advance search? can't find it.
been away for half a year here so I'm still new to the changes.
wait, where did the pulse go as well?? and the chatroom? (I guess it was officially removed now huh)
please answer.
Errare humanum est
Any word on this being added to the droid / googleTV app?
mostly harmless
i use it alllot
Eid MUBARAk
It would be good to see how many episodes were left to date (if you were trying to catch up) and also when the next episode is due... Currently using my goggle calendar to log when new ones are out
Looking forward to the next episode of Sword Art Online
No update for Droid users? I like the content but the droid app makes it so hard to use that I often just go back to Netflix.
mostly harmless
It would be great if we could get notifications in email of updates to the shows in our queue
Really liking the new queue with the discriptions, image, and dropdown to episode select feature. I kindof still miss the promotional art but its still pretty nice.
I just noticed the change to the queue page, too. It was a surprise, but it's not bad. There are some advantages to the more compact list style before, but the new queue adds some features that weren't there before, so I'm sure I'll adjust quickly enough. Unfortunately, I just watched two episodes -- the latest for Phi Brain and Saint Seiya Omega -- and the "next up" episode for both is 1. It looks like something's gone wrong here, since it should be 34 and 10, respectively. Other series appear to be showing the correct next episode right now, but that could change once I start watching them. Could you take a look at this and try to make sure the "next up" episode is correct? Thanks!
P.S. -- I've noticed that some episodes, the 3 minute ones in particular, don't seem to register as completely watched even though they are. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I used to frequently get last week's episode when I wanted this week's for shows like Recorder and Randsell. It might be worth looking into as well.
WTH did you do the queue? It's not functional. I know what the characters look like I don't need pix. You've eliminated our ability to link to the main page of a show. You go directly to the video. What if you don't want to watch that? You forced us from 'watched' to 'my queue' and now you've changed that. Ever heard of the old adage, 'if it ain't broke don't fix it'? A list was perfectly fine. It quicker and simpler to read. You could glance and go. Now it's just clunky.
Like? Please tell me what I am not seeing.
Re: Recorder Randsell: Did you go to the end of the video? Sometimes my links do that to me. When I watch the last episode of a title for the day, I go to the end. I don't do it with every anime just a couple and RR is one of them. If I don't go to the very end, I start with the previous episode's credits or wherever I stopped. Hope that helped.

Re: Recorder Randsell: Did you go to the end of the video?
To be fair, what I'm seeing now might have been there before, but not as obvious. But here's what I noticed:
* Simulcast series list the availability of the next episode -- e.g., right now Dusk Maiden of Amnesia (Monday) says episode 9 is up in 3 days for premium members. This helps with knowing when to stop watching simulcasts (when you're caught up).
* The recently watched list shows the last 5 episodes instead of 3. Could be useful in some cases.
* If you click the small down arrow on the right side of a series box, it pulls down a menu showing the whole list of available episodes, with links to "show information" and "remove". This will be helpful for things like Recorder and Randsell that don't want to play the newest episode for some reason -- I can force it to rather than doing a "play next" thing and having to go to the most recent one after that.
* The up arrow on the left side of the series block will send it to the top of the queue, kind of like how Netflix can. Since series do (should?) get added at the bottom, but I put simulcasts at the top, this will save a little time when I reorder things each season.
* I think the separate page with a long history of viewed episodes is new, but I'm not sure. I don't usually view my history; the recently watched episodes were usually enough.
For a bit, I thought drag-and-drop reordering was missing, but then realized you have to do it from that small vertical bar on the left side of the series block; you can't just grab it from anywhere on the block. The main down side I've seen is that everything takes up more space. The old list used to be much more compact, which I frequently prefer. But the additional things displayed now do help, so I don't think the change is too bad.
Regarding Recorder and Randsell, yes, I let the episodes run out to the end. I do with pretty much everything I watch on here, because I also found out about the automatic restarting if you don't. While that is definitely a nice feature, it seems to be working improperly in at least some cases, and it looks like it's mostly the 3-minute shows to me. Good idea, but I've already tried this out, and it doesn't seem to be the cause.
I hope this helps!

Twelve members of the Vagos motorcycle club were arrested and more than 300 weapons seized in raids across seven Southern California counties, in the latest attempt to dismantle what authorities say is a criminal enterprise.
In all, 37 people have been arrested for a variety of drug-related crimes as part of a 18-month investigation led by the California Department of Justice. More than 40 pounds of cocaine and eight pounds of methamphetamine were seized along with a rocket launcher.
Authorities served 52 search warrants on Thursday at locations stretching from Santa Barbara to Imperial counties. Among those arrested was Andrew Lozano, 35, of Fontana, who was led out of his one-story home wearing only a towel when agents busted down his door.
Authorities combed through a large lot behind the home, essentially a junkyard filled with construction equipment, truck trailers and a pontoon boat. A dummy whose face was covered with a black hood and a noose around its neck hung from a eucalyptus tree. A Harley Davidson emblazoned with flames painted green _ the Vagos' chosen color _ was parked nearby.
Lozano was charged with possession of body armor with a gang enhancement. If convicted, he faces up to three years in prison.
Authorities said some members of the gang, which was founded in the 1960s and has about 500 members worldwide, were involved in a large-scale drug distribution ring. Members would threaten, intimidate or use violence to protect their interests, they said.
"Often times, Vagos members were armed and they don't hesitate to use their weapons," said David King, a senior special agent in charge with the department.
Most recently, a Vagos member from Northern California was arrested in connection with the Sept. 23 slaying of Jeffrey "Jethro" Pettigrew, president of the San Jose chapter of the rival Hells Angels, during a shootout at a Nevada casino. Two Vagos members also were wounded in the melee, and a third was shot in the stomach the next morning by a gunman in a passing car.
Forty to 50 state indictments were expected as a result of the investigation dubbed "Operation Simple Green." Among the crimes authorities uncovered are a solicitation for murder they said they couldn't disclose details about, as well as the rape of a woman by four Vagos members at a Los Alamitos bar in March. No arrests have been made in either case.
The raids were the latest effort to dismantle what officials have labeled an outlaw gang, whose patch includes the Norse god of mischief Loki. Vagos is a Spanish name that means "traveling gypsy" or "a street-wise person that's always up to something." It also has chapters in Australia, Canada and Nicaragua.
Vagos leaders in the past have said their group is a social club, not a criminal enterprise, and have complained of being repeatedly targeted by law enforcement.
At a command center, law enforcement agents met up to tally the day's results. At one point, two vehicles carrying about 100 rifles and other weapons were unloaded to be placed into evidence. All the guns were found at one house in Alhambra, authorities said.
Five years ago, federal, state and local authorities conducted a similar operation and arrested more than two dozen Vagos members, including seven chapter presidents. In September 2004, a state investigation involving the gang led to the arrests of 26 people and the seizure of more than $125,000 in cash, drugs and guns.
In October 1998, a two-year undercover investigation of the gang resulted in the arrests of more than a dozen people for alleged kidnapping, drug and weapons crimes.

Plotting from AutoCAD LT is done through the PLOT command, where many configuration options are included. AutoCAD LT stores all the current plot specifications in the configuration file ACLT.CFG so that it is not necessary to re-enter the same parameters every time the Plot command is issued.
The plot procedure in AutoCAD LT is very easy because there is no need to select specific devices. There is only one default device that is the System Printer. By default, AutoCAD LT uses dithered output to allow the printer to simulate more colors than it actually supports by creating combinations from the pure color palette. The dithered output can be disabled for those printers that do not support it, like pen printers, simply by changing the DITHER setting to 0. This is done from the AutoCAD command line by typing: DITHER 0.
The Plot command performs the following tasks:
Set the Pen Assignments such as pen number, pen width and linetype, all of them associated with each color that appears in the screen.
Select the printing area with the variables: Display, Limits, View or Window area.
Remove hidden lines.
Select the units and specify the paper size in inches or in millimeters.
Specify the orientation of the paper.
Set the scale, rotation and origin parameters.
Obtain a full or partial preview of the drawing.
Save all the plot settings to a file with the .PCP extension for future use.
Plot the drawing to a file or directly to the printer.
Typing PLOT in the command line by choosing the Plot button of the Toolbar or selecting the File menu then Print/Plot can access the plot dialogue box.

TITAN Taichi TP-15TC & TP-25TC 2-in-1 USB Charger Review
TITAN Taichi TP-15TC & TP-25TC 2-in-1 USB Charger Introduction:
A long drive is pretty boring without some good old Blues to keep me going. I'm lucky enough to have a Bluetooth receiver integrated in the sound system of the car, so I use an Internet radio app on my Android phone to listen to my favorite channels. The data usage and the streaming tend to drain the battery quite a bit and plugging the phone in to the USB car charger is mandatory to keep everything running. Most car chargers have one USB port and are not really geared to provide the 2.1A needed for power hungry devices like the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 that I use. Power limitation aside, it starts to get a bit tricky when I need to plug in the GPS, too, to a one port charger! It also gets really out of hand when there are passengers (especially your own kids) with their own devices to charge. Usually the car ends up being a dictatorship where my music takes precedence over everyone else's needs! So you can imagine my joy and relief when I received the two USB car chargers that I will be reviewing for you today. The TITAN Taichi TP-15TC & TP-25TC 2in1 USB Charger units solved all my problems and provided extra utility on top of that.
The Taichi TP-15TC and Taichi TP-25TC are part of the Power Series product line from TITAN Technology Limited, a Taiwanese company established in 1989. I have to say that my only interaction with the company so far was that of a puzzled man trying to make sense of a CPU cooler advertising banner with wolves in it. My whole perspective changed after taking a quick tour on the company's websites (there is an old website and it seems that everything is being migrated to the new – and better looking – one). TITAN Technology Limited has an impressive product catalog including fans, CPU coolers, cables, chargers, and power inverters. Today I will be looking at the Taichi TP-15TC and Taichi TP-25TC 2in1 USB Chargers. First I will do the presentations, then we will talk performance.
TITAN Taichi TP-15TC 2-in-1 USB Charger Closer Look:
The Taichi TP-15TC comes in a box made of glossy thick paper with a small peek window towards the top. The box is literally covered in text, logos, and pictures. The top shows the TITAN logo, name, and a section of the clear window. The front presents the item inside by name while reminding the potential buyers that this is not your average USB charger; it's also a car battery tester! It seems that the patent is still pending for this device that has a max output of 3A combined between the two USB ports available. The left side reiterates some of the previous info then displays a small picture of the charger with a legend showing where everything is located. Towards the bottom a list of compatible portable devices is listed. Tablets, GPS, Cameras, Smart Phones; you name it and the Taichi TP-15TC seems to be able to handle it thanks to its two USB ports rated respectively at 1A and 2.4A.
The back of the box shows a translation of the tag-line "Innovative combination: USB charger and Car battery tester" in eight languages. A QR Code is available for those who want more info from the website on the spot. The specifications of the device are displayed on the bottom section. The right side of the box illustrates how the Taichi TP-15TC translates the car battery charge status into a simple three color code through red, yellow, and green LEDs. A table is included to help you understand what the different lights mean. If you are in the green, you are good to go I guess.
The device is built from solid plastic and has a good feel to it despite it being very light weight. It sports a unique design based on the YinYang theme and some cool Chinese characters that read Taichi on the black side of the device. A cooling vent in the shape of the YinYang symbol is present on the white side. The face of the device has the three car battery diagnostic LED lights, one USB 1A port, one USB 2.4A port, and a switch to select 24V or 12V depending on the car battery specs. Most cars will run a 12V battery by default.
TITAN Taichi TP-25TC 2-in-1 USB Charger Closer Look:
The Taichi TP-25TC is the four USB ports variant and comes in a slightly larger box than the TP-15TC. The box is exactly the same as the smaller version in terms of layout and info provided. The Taichi TP-25TC has a 5A total output, a 3A fuse, and a bigger frame than the TP-15TC; other than that, it's a replica of the smaller version. As you can see on the last picture, the LED lights are pretty bright, especially the red one. If the battery is not at optimal charge level, the TITAN Taichi will sure let you know that!

You can't beat a system you can't understand
A few hundred years ago, a group of New Englanders got together and celebrated the blessings of a bountiful harvest and plentiful game by declaring a holiday and throwing a feast. They invited their neighbors, the local tribe of Indians, and had a three-day party to commemorate their first wonderful year in the New World. Sounds good, but the story isn't even close to the truth. The historians probably had honorable intent, but their imaginings did little more than cover up the facts about our bungling ancestors with a nice tale about the New England Puritans, Pilgrims and a celebration that they didn't call Thanksgiving.
We can start with the landing of the Mayflower and the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock, near the top of Cape Cod Bay. They actually planned to settle in Virginia, but not the state of Virginia, as we know it today. In 1620, the Virginia Company issued the first Pierce Patent to the Company of Merchant Adventurers, giving them permission to start a new settlement that would be inhabited by the Pilgrims in the Virginia territory. The Pilgrims bought stock in the patent, which gave them rights to settle in the territory for seven years. The area was in the Hudson River region of New York, not Cape Cod.
The reasons for landing at Plymouth have been obfuscated by the historians because they probably did not want to portray our forefathers as the inept mariners that they were. Due partly to bad weather, certainly incompetent navigation, and a ship that was lucky to stay afloat in anything stronger than a stiff breeze, they got lost and never did find the Hudson River.
The first few months in America proved hard on the Pilgrims. Half of their 102 members perished. Of the 17 male heads of families, 10 died of an infectious disease. Of the 17 wives, only three remained after three months. The devastation was so dramatic that the following summer, when conditions improved, William Bradford wrote of "all things in good plenty," making the sincerity of 'Thanksgiving' apparent.
After the all-consuming illness, everyday survival was most likely perceived as cause for gratitude. However, when given a full and prosperous harvest with the help and instruction of their native hosts such as Squanto, a native of the Patuxet tribe that lived at present-day Plymouth, their observance of the previous ordeal could be understood as a trial by God, a test of faith, the heavenly reward prefigured by an earthly one.
The initial landing party at Plymouth is also interesting. According to William Bradford, some time after their arrival, the Pilgrim men led by Captain Miles Standish, fired shots into the darkness at "a hideous and great cry." Apparently, they mistook the cries for a "companie of wolves, or such like wild beasts." The next morning when arrows came flying at them by the hundreds, their assumptions changed. Instead of introducing themselves and offering good will by treating the natives with even the smallest modicum of respect, they shot at them. Needless to say, this was not well received.
There are only two recognized accounts that more or less chronicle the events and activities of the Pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving taking place in 1621. The first was written by Edward Winslow in a letter dated Dec. 12, 1621. The second, was written about 20 years after the fact by William Bradford in his "History of Plymouth Plantation." Bradford's "History" was rediscovered in 1854 after having been taken by British looters during the Revolutionary War. The accounts contradicted one another in many areas, and the difference between fact and fiction is diffi- cult to ascertain. Much depends on whom you want to believe.
Anyway, Squanto, a local native who had been to England and could communicate well with the colonists, taught them how to plant corn, where to catch fish, and how to procure other commodities, was seen by the Pilgrims as a special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectations.
The recognized peace treaty with the natives was made with a chief by the name of Massasoit. The treaty was initiated not by the Pilgrims but by the sachem himself, who had already made an equivalent pact with earlier explorers. The success of the treaty during Massasoit's lifetime suggests an equality, fairness, and tolerance that was later idealized in various remembrances of the overall colonial experience. It allowed both the positive example of the 'Indian' in Massasoit, and reassurance of European good faith in dealing with him.
Despite the less than auspicious beginning, the first celebration of the harvest happened courtesy of the invited native guests to the celebration. They brought venison, ducks, geese, fish, and introduced wild turkey to the Pilgrims. About 90 natives from nearby tribes arrived at the celebration and the party lasted for three days. The guests greatly outnumbered the Pilgrims.
Nonetheless, it was not called Thanksgiving. That word was reserved for a religious service to give thanks for a particular event, like surviving a battle. The celebration as enjoyed by the Pilgrims and the American Natives included secular songs and dances performed by non-Christians who would never be included in a formal Christian ceremony.
The first celebration of harvest was a one-time affair that was never repeated. Thanksgiving as we know it was reinvented over two centuries later, and through political manipulation evolved into the holiday it is today. Even Thanksgiving is part of that system we just can't seem to understand.

Lillian, if we are unable to contact a particular author, then there will be a gap for that topic in the book. So I will put out a call for Gold and Platinum members to submit articles (same size as Challenge entries) on that specific topic.
When I said a special Challenge, I didn't mean a literal Challenge. But this open invitation would be a nice way to open the door to some of our newer Gold and Platinum members.
I don't anticipate a huge number of vacancies, but there may be one or two in every book.

After the defeat of gun control legislation in the U.S. Senate, Newtown activists have instead focused on private sector advocacy - and got a win Monday when Panera announced it would adopt a gun-free policy.
Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, a gun control group founded in response to Newtown, announced Monday that Panera Bread CEO Ronald M. Shaich had announced "that the company will proactively ask guests at its 1,800 bakery-cafés in 40 states to leave their firearms at home."
The Covelli Family Limited Partnership of Orlando owns and manages about 60 Panera Bread locations in Central Florida. Panera is one of the nation's fastest-growing restaurant chains.

The people are living today amid difficult situations caused by the world crisis; however, the financial-economic crisis is the one threatening the nations with serious global impacts, mainly in all aspects of development including health. One of the worst tangible consequences is the reduction of the Official Assistance for Development given by the 22 wealthiest countries to the poor and the resource-limited nations. This paper was intended to delve into the importance of the south-south cooperation to face crisis situations and a good example of the effectiveness of this type of collaboration is Cuba. This cooperation is based on the triangled collaboration among the southern countries, the transfer of technologies and the medical assistance derived from the development of the Cuban Health Care System, which is also part of its foreign policy. Cuba is an example of solidarity and unselfish assistance that has been put into practice since 1963 with good results. At the same time, it has proved that cooperation is an effective way of solving the health problems of the populations whenever this assistance is just and cooperative and aimed at strengthening the national capacities according to the priorities of the recipient country.

ZAHRA STARDUST says her sport empowers women. Casula Powerhouse sees it differently, and has banned a photograph of the pole dancer from a coming exhibition on women in sport.
The Liverpool arts centre and gallery commissioned Sydney photographer Belinda Mason to take pictures of women in sport for its exhibition Onside, which opens in February, but banned the multi-image piece, which depicts Stardust posing in her pole dancing outfit.
Curator Toni Bailey wrote to Mason that there were ''too many issues for us - being a council-funded public gallery''.
Casula has stated the exhibition is intended to ''examine the complex issues relating to women and sport through an arts and cultural lens'' including ''media representation, sexploitation and fair pay''.
But Bailey, in rejecting the photograph, entitled The Candidate, said in an email: ''We can appreciate that the intention of the photograph is to suggest that the subject is empowered however we are convinced that not everyone will read it in this way.
''Of course as an art centre we don't want to censor artist's expression but the issue is more complex because we have commissioned the work.
''It is a very provocative image, which is your intention I know, and we have given it much thought however we can't include it I'm afraid.''
The feminist Eva Cox said: ''I don't know if it's empowering but it's an interesting set of images. I can't see how it would be disempowering for women, if you want to look at it that way. I think people are being a bit squeamish. Sometimes people are over-anxious about these things. I wouldn't mind having it as a poster.''
Mason submitted eight photographs for the exhibition, most of which will be displayed, including images of gridiron player Brooklyn Jackson, centenarian athlete Ruth Frith, hijab-wearing AFL player Lael Kassem, indigenous longboard surfing champion Melissa Combo, and short-statured basketball player Brittany Mamula.
Stardust, a law graduate and human rights advocate, said the decision to exclude the photograph was ''extremely disappointing and a sad reflection of prejudice, narrow-mindedness and stigma''.
Stardust said to exclude pole dancing ''perpetuates hierarchies of what constitutes a 'proper' sport, traditionally a male dominated arena … the core strength necessary for pole dancing actively resists stereotypes of feminine passivity''.
Casula's director, Kiersten Fishburn, told Fairfax Media the gallery ''only has a limited amount of room'' and ''so we selected the ones we thought were most appropriate for our audience''. Fishburn said only five images had been contracted from Mason. But it is believed Mason's contract was to supply eight images.
''I don't think it [the pole dancer image] was inappropriate but we do have a very mixed audience that includes a lot of schoolchildren.'' The Liverpool area, she said, is a ''relatively conservative community''.
While the gallery had exhibited other works containing nudity, the image of Stardust was ''not one of the most compelling images'', Fishburn said.
