Cardiac rehabilitation (rehab) phase I starts while you are in the
hospital and emphasizes exercise and education.
The parts of phase I include:
Your rate of recovery depends on age, gender, and other health
conditions. Depending upon your condition and how you respond to rehab, you may
stay in a particular phase or move back and forth among the various phases.
There is no set length of time that you must stay in a specific phase.
Your hospital rehab staff should be able to provide you with
information and resources for making the transition from hospital to
home. This includes
how to find a cardiac rehab program in your community.
The following exercises are examples. Your exercise program depends on your medical history, clinical status, and symptoms.
Discuss with your doctor any additional physical limitations or medical issues before you begin any exercise program.
A phase I cardiac rehab exercise program should progress from
initial supportive and self-care activities to regular daily walking.

Mid-Market's newest anchor company opened its doors Monday morning with a rooftop barbecue, gorgeous weather and hundreds of thrilled Twitter employees retweeting each others' photos of the company headquarters.
Twitter moved 800 employees to the Art Deco building on Market between Eighth and Ninth streets over the weekend, a move that city officials hope will jumpstart corporate and commercial revitalization of the area.
But never mind San Francisco's years-long urban planning efforts. There were chocolate-covered strawberries and a rooftop garden to tweet about.
BBQ at the roof deck. #NewTwitterHQ is unbelievable. twitter.com/vl/status/2122…

Jack Dorsey, the company's co-founder, came by for a visit.

Rooftop of the new Twitter office! twitter.com/chenosaurus/st… — David Chen (@chenosaurus) June 11, 2012
Mayor Ed Lee, who championed the six-year "Twitter tax break" behind the company's decision to stay in San Francisco, made an unsurprising appearance.
Even Muni joined in on the party and debuted its new Mid-Market express line, the 83X, which runs directly from Caltrain to Twitter during commute hours.
Twitter employees may find themselves suddenly in high demand as lunch hosts — but any attempts to get onto that rooftop may have to be delayed for a bit. We asked around and heard the company isn't allowing guests for the first two weeks at the new office.

Money Saving Tips
1. Set a Budget
It is very important to set a budget so you know where every dollar you have coming in, is going out to. The first month or so will be a little difficult if you don't really know how much you spend each month on things like groceries, eating out, gas, clothing etc. The easiest way to set your budget and track your spending is with a budget tracker. Mint.com offers a free version that can help get you started AND get you organized. You can also use Quickbooks or just create your own for FREE using Microsoft Excel or Google Docs. Setting up a budget and tracking your spending will help you know exactly where you can make cuts and possible help save yourself hundreds of dollars each month.
2. Save for an Emergency (they do happen)
Debit expert and financial guru Dave Ramsey has developed what he calls Seven Baby Steps. These steps are designed to help you eliminate debit and create a stable financial future. One build on YOUR money, not on top of debit which can create issues down the road. The first baby step is to save up for an emergency. If you put away $1000 as quickly as you can by selling something, working overtime, skipping eating out for a month, whatever it is you can do to save that money do it. This creates a safety net for when emergencies arise. This way you can pay cash instead of creating even more debt. ONLY use it for an emergency!
3. Use Coupons
Using coupons and coupon codes can save you lots of money on the things you buys everyday. At CharmingChick we post many of our coupon codes that can help you save money. There are so many great coupon code websites out there but two of the most popular that we use are RetailMeNot.com and CouponChief.com.

You can also find discounts on the items you purchase every day like groceries, toiletries, eating out and MUCH more.
These three money saving tips are just the beginning. Do you have a great money saving tips you'd like to share We'd LOVE to hear it.


text: http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2005/01/01/paris.html By Brian McWilliams 02/22/2005 Paris Hilton's Chihuahua couldn't protect her Hollywood home from a burglary last summer. So why was Hilton counting on her dog to protect her T-Mobile account from intruders? Despite repeated attacks on her T-Mobile email and telephone records in recent months, the actress and heiress has persisted in using the little dog's name to secure her password at the T-Mobile site. Like many online service providers, T-Mobile.com requires users to answer a "secret question" if they forget their passwords. For Hilton's account, the secret question was "What is your favorite pet's name?" By correctly providing the answer, any internet user could change Hilton's password and freely access her account. Hilton makes no secret of her affection for her Chihuahua. Last August, Hilton offered a reward of $5,000 when her beloved pet disappeared after the house she shared with sister Nicole was burglarized. An anonymous source provided O'Reilly Network with a screen grab, proving he was able to access the contents of Hilton's T-Mobile inbox as of Tuesday morning. Another image confirmed that Hilton's "secret answer" was her dog's name. Upon being notified Tuesday, T-Mobile corrected the potential security vulnerability in Hilton's account. Last weekend, Hilton's T-Mobile online account was accessed by intruders calling themselves "The Niggas at DFNCTSC." The trespassers posted the contents of her address book, notes, and photo folder on the internet. In January, Hilton reportedly suspected that a "hacker" had access to her email account and was reading messages there. It's unclear how those intruders gained access to Hilton's account. A T-Mobile spokesperson said the company is "actively investigating" the situation. Weak passwords are cited as one of the top twenty internet security vulnerabilities by the SANS Institute. Account information belonging to Hilton and other T-Mobile users has been circulating in the computer underground since at least late March of 2004. A California man named Nicholas Jacobsen has admitted to hacking into T-Mobile's servers and accessing records on at least 400 customers. (Last week, security professionals openly speculated about how Jacobsen gained access to the wireless provider's internal systems.) According to court papers, Jacobsen, who used the online alias Ethics, offered to sell the stolen information on an online message board on March 15, 2004. Jacobsen also apparently provided excerpts of the data to friends and colleagues. A log file of a March 2004 instant-message conversation apparently between Ethics and an associate includes a section containing Hilton's T-Mobile phone number, password, social security number, and other confidential information. Password hint systems like the one used by T-Mobile are common on the internet. Online service providers including the MSN Hotmail service have encountered security breaches involving attackers correctly answering "secret questions" and then locking victims out of their accounts. T-Mobile representatives said Hilton uses a Sidekick II, a communication device that offers wireless telephone and internet access as well as a built-in flash camera. -=- Brian McWilliams is the author of Spam Kings and is an investigative journalist who has covered business and technology for web magazines including Wired News and Salon, as well as the Washington Post and PC World, Computerworld, and Inc. magazines.

Technicolor Twinkle Toes. Embroidery on Vintage Photos of Dancers.
Now living and working in Berlín, Chilean-born Jose Romussi formally studied landscape design when growing up, but over the past few years has gained a significant following for his screen prints and collages in which he combines vintage black and white photographs with colorful forms of embroidery.
In this series, Dance, the supernatural power of dancers and their poses and movements inspire him with their precision and elegance. Romussi brings these pictures back to life with bright vibrant colors, underlining the dynamic of these frozen movements. With each new line of embroidery he invites the viewer to dream with him and to experience each subject's hidden vitality.

The First Flat-Packed Wooden Bike You Assemble Yourself. The Sandwichbike by Basten Leijh.
It's new. It's cool. It comes in the mail and you put it together. Dubbed the Sandwichbike, this Dutch Design original was inspired by the concept of flat packing, home assembly and Bleigh Industries' never-ending drive to create exceptional products.
Presented during the 2013 Salone del Mobile, the Sandwichbike wooden bicycle by Dutch designer Basten Leijh will start production. Made of two wooden panels, this bicycle was inspired by the concept of flat packing and home assembly.
The Sandwichbike fits in a small, flat package, so they can send it to you by post. The fun will begin the moment the postman rings your doorbell. Everything you need is in the box including the tools, so you can start assembling right away. In total, there are less than 50 parts. If you can make a sandwich, you can surely build a Sandwichbike.
To enable to make it a build-it-yourself product, Basten Leijh rethrought most aspects of the classic velocipede. Instead of a welded frame, the vehicle is engineered as a "sandwich" of two weather coated frames of layered plywood. Bonded together by "smart cylinders", the frames and components become a durable and attractive piece of technology.
The price of a Sandwichbike starts at € 799. They start delivering by post in October this year! Bleijh is now taking pre-orders at Sandwichbikes.com.

Gentlemen, Start Your Watches. Hublot's MP-05 "LaFerrari"
With the recent unveiling of the Ferrari's "LaFerrari" at the Geneva Motor Show, the pressure was on for Hublot to deliver something just as exceptional and the MP-05 LaFerrari watch is the result. In a demonstration and testimony that lives up to the car, it has achieved a historic record with its 50 day power reserve. It is also the watch with the most watchmaking components created to date by Hublot (637).
Looking like a miniature engine strapped to the wrist, the limited edition timepiece is priced at a cool 300,000 Swiss francs, or about $322,000, warranting its own garage.
The MP-05 "LaFerrari" was developed - in technical and design terms - entirely in parallel with the car, alongside the Ferrari teams. They share a number of common points. Able to boast no fewer than 637 components for the movement, which is also equipped with a Tourbillon, as well as a power reserve of approximately 50 days thanks to its 11 barrels, arranged in a line just like a spinal column and interconnected so that they do not each discharge in turn but support each other, this watch is closer to being a concept watch.
The watch is finely wrought in terms of shape, featuring a complex shaped sapphire crystal clearly reminiscent of the car's outline, as well as an open case-back, and is made from black PVD titanium. It is topped by a titanium and carbon insert in its center, revealing the winding crown. The time-setting crown is positioned under the case. Both are completely integrated into the design, and therefore practically invisible.
The movement has an original display, featuring first off on the front vertical face the small seconds indicated by means of an aluminum cylinder fastened onto the suspended Tourbillon cage (significantly bigger than usual with a cage diameter of 14.50 mm, for even better appreciation of the mechanical parts).
The hour and minute are displayed to the right of the barrels, also indicated by means of one anodized black aluminum cylinder each. On their left is the cylinder indicating the power reserve. Reinforcing bars either side, made from anodized red aluminum, bring to mind Ferrari's red signature.
A small detail, but one which makes reading the time easier; on each cylinder the size of the numerals has been maximized with white SuperLuminova™, to enhance the display for ease of reading. This is all rounded off by a rubber strap with a special folding buckle in black PVD titanium.
The desire for a truly exceptional watch has been extended to the design of the presentation case, made from Schedoni leather and carbon fiber, containing the specific tools for winding the watch, and whose design was also inspired by the world of motoring. Limited edition of 50 numbered pieces.
HUBLOT MASTERPIECE MP -05 "LaFerrari"
•Reference 905.ND.0001.RX
•Series 50 numbered pieces
•Case Black PVD made of titanium

By JENNIFER CORBETT DOOREN
In a frustrating outcome, a long-term weight-loss program aimed at overweight adults with diabetes didn't cut the rate of heart attacks and strokes, a major study showed.
But losing weight did provide at least one major benefit by cutting the development of chronic kidney disease, a leading cause of premature death in people with Type 2 diabetes. It also showed some ancillary benefits like cutting medicine use, depression and hospitalizations. Doctors said the finding shouldn't discourage people—particularly those with diabetes—from exercising and eating a healthy diet. Several other studies have shown that exercise and a healthy diet can prevent people at risk for Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of the disease, from getting the disease.
New results from the study were presented Monday at the American Diabetes Association's annual meeting and published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Diabetes affects about 26 million Americans and is characterized by high blood-glucose levels caused by the body's inability to either make or properly use insulin. Type 2 diabetes is associated with weight gain and older age. The disease raises the risk of heart attacks and strokes, kidney disease, blindness, amputations and nerve damage.
The study—called Look Ahead—was stopped early by the National Institutes of Health partly because it was clear a goal of showing a reduction in cardiovascular events wouldn't be reached. The study was supposed to last for about 13 years but was stopped after patients had been followed for about a decade. Patients in the study were diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, were overweight or obese, and were between age 45 and 75 when the study started in 2001. Although the lifestyle interventions in the study were stopped early, researchers said they continue to track the patients in the study.
Researchers wanted to know if a long-term study looking at weight loss would show a reduction in actual events like heart attacks and strokes. The study was able to successfully show that a middle-age and elderly group of patients could lose weight and keep it off for nearly a decade. Several short-term studies looking at overweight people considered to be at risk for developing diabetes and heart disease have shown benefits of losing weight, such as improved blood sugar levels, lower blood pressure and cholesterol.
The study assigned about 2,600 people to an intensive intervention group that emphasized exercise and cutting calories. About 2,600 were in a less intensive group that received counseling sessions on nutrition and physical activity. People in the intensive group initially met with a counselor weekly for the first six months of the study; those in the less intensive group started out with three counseling sessions annually. For both groups, the frequency of the counseling sessions was reduced later in the study. Patients in the more intensive group were instructed to exercise for 175 minutes a week and to consume a diet of about 1,200 to 1,800 calories a day. Those in the less intensive group—which was the study's control group—weren't given specific exercise or calorie targets.
During the first year of the study, patients in the intensive group lost 8.6% of their total body weight, while those in the control group lost just 0.7%. When the study stopped, people in the intensive group had lost a total of 6% of their body weight while those in control group lost 3.5%. Doctors said the 2.5% between study groups simply might not be large enough to show a reduction in cardiovascular events. Patients in the intensive group lost about 14 pounds.
Rena Wing, the study chairwoman and a professor at Alpert Medical School of Brown University in Providence, R.I., said another possibility for the study failing to meet its main goal was that patients in the control group were more likely to be on cholesterol-lowering medicines which lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Exercising such as walking for just 75 minutes a week provides some health benefits, studies show, although 150 minutes is best. "It's really better than not doing anything," said Ronald Sigal, a professor of medicine at the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada, during a separate presentation on exercise and diabetes. Dr. Sigal said people could consider as little as walking for 15 minutes three times a week and some sort of resistance training twice a week.

I have sung the praises of Trust Cellars previously. While I had sampled most these wines on prior occasions, with the exception of the knockout ice wine, each continues to impress. The 2007 Walla Walla Valley Syrah is a beautiful expression of the fruit from Les Collines, Va Piano, and Lewis vineyards; the Riesling is my favorite in the Washington state; and the ice wine is a fitting end to any meal. In addition to producing high quality wine, Trust Cellars also consistently offers high Quality-to-Price Ratios (QPRs).
Trust Cellars produces approximately 1,500 cases annually.
Trust Cellars Syrah Columbia Valley 2007 $28
Rating: * (Excellent) An appealing nose with chocolate, flowers, game, and blueberry. A rich palate with a finish that lingers. Syrah from Lewis, Portteus, and Sundance vineyards. Aged in French oak (25% new). 14.5% alcohol. 320 cases produced.
Trust Cellars Syrah Walla Walla Valley 2007 $28

Aged in French oak (22% new). 14.4% alcohol. 214 cases produced.

Had the distinct pleasure of enjoying the Walla Walla Valley Syrah and the Columbia Valley Syrah the same night. The WW was like the big brother of the CV, with an attitude. Bought both at a Yoke's here in Tri Cities and I agree the QPR is huge. As a look back at your Chateau Rollat post from the day before, WTF? How does a damn good wine get treated so poorly?
Sean P. Sullivan Says:
cityroute16, glad to hear you got to check the Trust Syrahs out. Very fun to try these wines side by side I must say.
Regarding Chateau Rollat, sadly great winemakers don't always make good business people. It's a shame because the wines are top rate. Hopefully they will fix the problems.

ROCK HILL, S.C. (AP) Andre Smith scored 14 points to lead Winthrop to a 61-55 victory over Gardner-Webb in a Big South Conference game on Wednesday night.
Christian Farmer had 13 points and James Bourne 11 points and six rebounds for the Eagles (8-10, 2-4), who had lost five of its past six games coming in.
Kevin Hartley led Gardner-Webb (10-10, 2-4) with 13 points, and Tashan Newsome had 11.
The Eagles outscored the Runnin' Bulldogs 18-6 on points in the paint, and Winthrop made 15 of 20 at the foul line to Gardner Webb's 5 of 9.
Winthrop led 18-12 on Gideon's free-throws at 6:55 on the way to a 30-24 advantage at the break.
Gardner-Webb took its first lead in the second half at 39-37 at 15:21 on Max Landis' 3-pointer, but Farmer's 3-pointer at the 12:55 mark gave the Eagles a 44-41 advantage they never relinquished.

At South East Dog Rescue, we are committed to helping even the most troubled of dogs through canine behaviour modification. We do this in two key ways:
1. through on site rehabilitation
2. on going behaviour advice and support once in their new homes.
To be able to do this effectively, requires years of training and experience. We are extremely proud to have our own resident canine behaviourist, who has trained for several years at one of the UK's leading animal behaviour centres, the Natural Animal Centre. Kymm has experienced first-hand the benefits of formal training in the science of dog behaviour and welfare:
' My Canine Behaviour Qualification gained through the Natural Animal Centre is a comprehensive science-based qualification using only the latest research from the best universities in the world. The course encompasses canine ethology, evolution, domestication, abnormal behaviours, physiology, learning theory, welfare, aggression as well as personal self development and learning how to consult. This enables me to provide detailed behavioural modification programmes for even the most traumatised of dogs. I know how to target the cause of the problem and not to focus on just the superficial symptom. This means I focus on good welfare for the dog throughout their modification.
In line with my personal ethics and those of the Natural Animal Centre, I work only using positive reinforcement which is scientifically proven to have a
beneficial and accelerated affect on how dogs learn.'
The Natural Animal Centre has a mission statement of 'positively influencing the well being of animals worldwide'.
Formally opened in 1997 to promote compassion and good welfare for animals, the Natural Animal Centre focuses its teaching efforts on producing excellent, leading behaviourists. They do this by combining animal behavioural science with the teaching of communication and counselling skills thereby ensuring students become unsurpassed in their chosen career.
The Natural Animal Centre actively supports and trains the staff of many rescue centres (both in the UK and abroad) and has worked extensively with the Dogs Trust and the Blue Cross, as well as with South East Dog Rescue.
If you are interested in attending a Natural Animal Centre course (dogs, cats or horses) either as an animal owner or a prospective animal behaviourist, then visit www.naturalanimlalcentre.com, firstname.lastname@example.com

TROY -- When John Stage, CEO ofDinosaur Bar-B-Que
, needs a new restaurant opened, it is to tattooed biker and Culinary Institute of America graduate Jeffrey "Cooter" Coon whom he turns. Since Coon opened Dinosaur's second location in Rochester in 1998, he has been an integral part of the team tasked with Dinosaur's gradual expansion into new markets. Yet when Coon helped prepare the Dinosaur's fourth location, along the riverfront in downtown Troy, for agrand opening in November 2010
, it was a return to the region for the company. It was at theHarley Rendezvous Classic
, a motorcycle gathering in Pattersonville that founder Stage first used a 55-gallon drum cut in half as a barbeque pit, and so began Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. After five years on the road, Stage and his partners settled in downtown Syracuse in 1988 to incorporate the now multi-million dollar company. After helping lift the Troy operation off the ground, Coon still comes up to the city every few months -- as he was on Tuesday -- to ensure that the restaurant continues to operate smoothly. Although he is based in the Harlem restaurant, he has spent much the past few months preparing a new location in Brooklyn. "The worse thing about (opening a new location) is really trying to teach people how to barbeque," explained Coon, while sitting at a high-top in the Troy location Tuesday afternoon. Barbequing requires a great deal of patience and consistency, traits it takes Coon between three and six months to instill in new chefs and managers. And while he is busy training new staff, he is still taste-testing new products. "I'm still in the kitchen everyday, whether it's in the pits or developing stuff for the next restaurant," said Coon. As part of an effort by Dinosaur's administration team -- which to this day has several bikers amongst its members -- to bring something new to each restaurant it opens, Coon creates three or four dishes that compliment or reflect each locality's culinary history. In the months leading up to the Troy opening, Coon designed a homemade sausage for the Troy location. "There's so much Italian sausage up here that we modeled it after the Texas style, which is a whole lot beefier and whole different flavor profile," explained Coon. "I worked on that for at least four months. I ate a whole lot of raw pork." That effort created the "hot links" sausages, which the restaurant serves as a small plate with homemade pimento cheese, black pepper cheddar crackers and pickled onions. They are also part of the "Ode to Lockhart," a custom plate which comes with a beef brisket and a quarter rack of ribs. The sausages were so popular that Dinosaur is now cutting, grinding and stuffing them for the every restaurant. The meat used in those sausages comes from two Midwestern companies; the pork from Seaboard Farms, out of St. Louis, Miss., while the beef is from Creekstone, based in Arkansas City, Kan. While some of its seasonal produce is local, Coon explained that the meats have to come from a single, large supplier that can guarantee the consistency of the cuts -- which, he emphasized, are never frozen -- and thus maintain the consistency of dishes from restaurant to restaurant. Coming off opening Dinosaur's first out of state location -- a location in Camden, New Jersey that opened last May -- Coon is now designing the signature fare for a location in the Gowanus section of Brooklyn, set to open in mid-May. Currently under development, those dishes might eventually include a pulled-lamb dish and a brisket hash. "Brooklyn is the kind of environment that is going to lend you some bigger flavors, a little more outgoing, maybe a little fattier, a little more aggressive in seasonings," Coon said. Despite high chef turnover in the industry, Coon has stayed with Dinosaur for the past 15 years, and is invested, literally, in the company. As of 2010, Coons reportedly owned a .23 percent share of the company. This longevity, and apparent loyalty, is a result of Dinosaur's atmosphere, explained the master chef. "I use to do classical French and country clubs, and the classical French cuisine kind of fell to the wayside in the mid-90s ... and the country clubs, I just wasn't hanging with," explained Coon. "I can ride my bike, get tattoos -- it's not a big deal." Ian Benjamin can be reached at 270-1287.

For much of my post-college life, I've been that girl who just wanted to get married. So when I met my fiancé four years and change ago and quickly realized he was the proverbial "one," I got a little, well, excited. I filled a Pinterest board with mason jar candle holders and lace table runners and hand-painted wood signs. Because this man was The One, he didn't care that I was the kind of a nutcase who makes pre-engagement wedding vision boards for all of our mutual friends to see. As I merrily pinned away, my three best friends all got engaged, leaving me dying for my turn.
The man proposed last November while we were on vacation. The fact that it happend at 6 a.m.—while I was still half-asleep—made the moment all the more surprising. I literally blurted out "What is this?!" when he presented the ring. It happened. It finally freaking happened.
For someone who basically pre-planned her wedding, and grew up happy to be the center of attention, I expected to relish my new role as "bride-to-be." Instead, I felt anxious and weirdly self-consious. While I wanted to post our engagement to Facebook immediately, I stopped myself. I didn't want to be "that girl," did I? I did, but I also felt insecure about it. So, my fiance and I told our parents privately, I emailed my best friend, and then we waited to share the news with everyone else when we got home from our trip. I even managed to delay the Facebook announcement for an entire week. I eventually switched my relationship status late on a Friday night—the social media deadzone.
Soon thereafter came the guilt. First, I felt guilty about money. I felt bad when my parents generously offered to give us thousands of dollars to pay for the wedding. Then, there was the bridal party: What right did I have to make my friends shell out hundreds of dollars for a dress they'll never wear again? And, finally, there's the inconvenience: Isn't asking people to possibly take time off work to fly somewhere to watch us get married too much to ask?
We sent our save-the-dates out two days ago but instead of being excited—like, holy crap, all of my bridal-slash-life-dreams are actually coming true IRL!—I've been working on making our wedding website flawless, so that the guests who view it will be greeted with an informative, seamless experience. Completing tasks for other people helps me less guilty about the whole thing.
For a while, focusing on my best friends' pending nuptials also helped distract me from my own unexpected feelings. I'd talk about my wedding planning with them. Our wedding powwows were wonderful bonding moments—we all had the same things to commiserate over.
But two weeks ago, my last very close friend got married. My wedding is the only one left in our close-knit group of friends (and it's still 10 months away). On Monday, the day after my last BFF to get hitched returned from her mini-moon, she asked me about my wedding decor and what I'm thinking about for my bachelorette. After rattling off a few details about my color palette, I stopped myself. "You just got back—I should give you a little time," I said, forgetting how much I loved assisting her with florist drama and favor dilemmas. I felt bad jumping into me-me-me when her wedding dress was still hanging, not yet dry-cleaned, from the back of her living room closet door. And now I feel guilty about shutting out my best pal, too.
Every Sunday, my fiance and I chat about wedding stuff and, every Sunday, we get annoyed with each other. Mainly because, instead of being excited, I feel guilty when it comes to him as well—that I have to "make him" do wedding stuff. Even though he wants to help. Even though he told me that me being not excited makes him not excited.
But I've realized that I have no reason to feel guilty about getting married and wanting to celebrate it. I don't need to feel uncomfortable about presumptuously hosting and planning a day that's all about me. Because it's not all about me—and it never was. It's about my wonderful significant other, the families we are marrying into, and the friends who want to be there to witness our commitment.
So I've adopted a new mantra, courtesy of A Practical Wedding author Meg Keene: Your wedding is not an imposition. Sure, it's going to be ridiculously expensive (my mom is an amped up version of Martha Stewart and pretty doesn't come cheap). Sure, we're asking people to give up a weekend to watch us say our vows. Sure, it's illogical to worry about the repercussions of having a traditional wedding cake versus trendy assorted mini-desserts. But this is the one, socially-acceptable instance in which all of these things are OK (or at least, that's what I repeatedly assured my now-married best friends).
Rather than downplaying the biggest, happiest thing going on in my life right now, I'm just going to be obnoxiously excited about it. Because I'll be damned if I don't enjoy being a bride-to-be after spending years longing for the right man to slide a ring onto my finger.
It's time to embrace the fact that, at my core, I am completely, irrevocably, "that girl." And now's my time to shine, for better or for worse.

Press Release- Round 3 award nominees announced
Office of Press Relations
For Immediate Release
Wednesday, July 31, 2013
Washington, D.C.
The Saving Lives at Birth: A Grand Challenge for Development today announced 22 Round 3 award nominees from a pool of 53 finalists – innovators who descended on Washington for three days to showcase bold, new ideas to save the lives of mothers and newborns in developing countries with aspirations of international funding to realize their vision.
The award nominees cut across maternal and neonatal health, family planning, nutrition and HIV and they present not only cutting-edge technologies that can be used in resource-poor settings, but innovative approaches to delivering services and the adoption of healthy behaviors.

The three-day event concluded with a forum featuring Ambassador Susan E. Rice, National Security Advisor; Dr. Rajiv Shah, Administrator, USAID; HRH Princess Sarah Zeid of Jordan; New York Times best-selling author Dan Heath and NASA astronaut retired Col. Ron Garan.
Leading into the DevelopmentXChange, existing Saving Lives at Birth grantees participated in a three-day, customized training program – a focal point of the global health Xcelerator. This eight-month program, offered through a partnership between National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA), the Lemelson Foundation and USAID, provides grantees the tools and knowledge to scale their ideas and maximize the impact of their innovations.
Every year 150,000 mothers and 1.6 million newborns die during childbirth and 1.2 million infants are stillborn. In an effort to accelerate progress toward the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 4 and 5, which aim to end preventable child and maternal deaths, this partnership brings together leading innovators, development experts, and potential funders in an open, dynamic marketplace of ideas, the DevelopmentXChange builds a community of creative thinkers to address this global need. Saving Lives at Birthhas funded 39 innovations since the challenge began in 2011.

An up-Hill battle
ST. PETERSBURG — I thought coming to St. Pete would allow us a chance to catch up with second baseman Aaron Hill, who has been residing in Florida these days while he tries to come back from his nasty concussion.
Unfortunately for us scribes, Hill was a no-show at the workout on Thursday and wasn't with the team prior to Friday's game. We did chat with Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi, who has resorted to shrugs when asked about Hill's status.
Ricciardi said nobody's told him to start worrying that Hill may be entering Corey Koskie territory here. But we did ask Ricciardi if it's starting to approach a point where the Blue Jays believe Hill could possibly be done for the year.
"I think that's how we're looking now," Ricciardi said. "I don't think he is done for the year — unless someone tells us he is — but we're preparing for a worst-base scenario."
Needless to say, the Jays aren't sounding very confident about Hill's chances to make a swift return from the post-concussion symptoms he's had since colliding with David Eckstein in late May. Hopefully, Hill can make a full return.
IN OTHER NEWS: Shaun Marcum is now the tentative starter for Tuesday in Baltimore. On Thursday, Marcum spun four perfect innings with six strikeouts for Class A Dunedin. If all goes according to plan, he'll be activated from the DL to make the start … Righty Dustin McGowan (right shoulder) will be re-evaluated by Dr. Timothy Kremchek in two weeks. … In relation to trade rumors about A.J. Burnett, Ricciardi said, "I don't see A.J. going anywhere."

WHAT A KNIGHT: Thanks to Mark Zwolinksi of the Star for gutting it out to go see the midnight showing of The Dark Knight with me last night. Man, that was a spec-freakin-tacular film. Heath Ledger was amazing and the movie was strong. I didn't get to bed until 4 a.m., but it was worth the lack of sleep. Go see it. I know I'm seeing it at least once more.

No wonder your late posting the lineups lol.
Why is it that it's always some puke with a 220 ar less AVE.that beats us with a home run.No matter how Burnett pitches he will always be a 500 pitcher and in my book that is a #5 starter.
Where are the bats,This team is garbage and they will never get there and it's all JPs fault as long as he is the GM we are sunk.
That sounds like bad news on Hill. Koskie never returned after his concussion. Sounds like we should consider calling up Campbell and see what the kids got.
Good teams take advantage of breaks. We got a break with Lind getting on, and 3 guys couldnt get him in.
nothing wrong with AJ's outing-that was a quality start and the only good news of the night. If he keeps pitching like this, his trade value will definately rise.
I never said it wasn't a Quality start but he still gave up a home run to a nobody he is a 500 pitcher and nobody will trade anyone of value for him.
Tampa bay must have been tickled pink when the Jays came to town it meant their slide was over.
I just returned from watching it and I echo Jordan's thoughts about The Dark Knight. It was spectacular and Heath Ledger left with a bang. I too will see it again once my girlfriend gets back from Poland.
Devastating news about Aaron Hill and I really hope his career isn't in jeopardy.
Sumner, I thought you made a very good point in Jordan's previous entry about trading Halladay, Ryan and Burnett. I'd hate to see any of those guys go but if that's what it takes to rebuild the team quicker then so be it. Halladay would take alot for me to like the fact that he'd be traded. My reason is because not only is he one of the best pitchers in baseball but he's also underpayed (as per market value) and that is really rare.
Also, I haven't been watching much of the games lately but from what I see from the boxscores I think Rod Barajas' run as starting catcher should be over. Zaun should be playing the majority of the games again. I'm not blaming him for the loss but I think he's in a funk right now.
Heath Ledger doesn't seem funny enough to me to play that role. Also, I don't see how Ledger can follow up Jack, in that role. I have my doubts, but the movie is getting rave reviews, so I'm likely wrong.
This Joker wasn't meant to be funny. He's alot more darker then Tim Burton's version. Heath played the role really well and I too was a fan of Jack's joker. I highly doubt you'd be disappointed if you choose to watch it.
JP is quoted today as saying that he has had no calls about any player with regards to trades. I find that astonishing. That said, if it is true, why do you think it is true? Are there no suitors for Burntett or any of our other guys, or is JP asking too much, or does he want to try and finish with the best record possible to save his job? Any ideas why teams are not contacting us, especially as Burnett is doing all he can humanly do to pitch his way out of toronto?
It looks like we are sellers for sure.Even if we win two thirds of the games left we will still not have enough wins to make the playoffs,the only problem is we don't have anyone that has any value to trade.
Matt Stairs will bring a -B-prospect.
Eckstein the same.
Barahas the same.
Burnett who knows it seems no one wants him so even if we find a taker we won't get anything for him.
In my opinion the Jays will not see the playoffs for many years to come not as long as we are in the same divison as New York and Boston.
Im with gsumner on Campbell bring him up now and see what he's got ,he's tearing the minors up so let's give him a try also bring up Dias.
I was looking at the Jays payroll and next year with the increae in salares for these players-Doc-Wells-Overbay-Rios-Downs-and Hill-it totals 14million 4 hundred and 75 thousand we will save 1.8 mill. on Glaus 10 mil on Thomas.and 750 thousand on Johnson.that will not leave any extra money in the coffers but it will leave a loss way to go JP.
Burt-isn't it amazing how JP lies. In this statement he says he has had no calls about any player with regards to trades.
If that's the case why did he have his director of player personal, down in AA looking at a Philles affiliate game at the same time Philly scouts were in the stands with radar guns in Burnett's start. I guess this just all happened by coincidence-right.
I wonder what he's thinking of when he says this stuff-does he really believe everyone he's talking to actually believes this crap.
I also question Godfrey on this issue, since he's been part of numerous JP lies. Where is Ted Rogers on on this? Our ship is sinking and we have management on this team that are incompetent who lie to their fan base and press everytime they get a chance.
Not the way to run a railroad.
How can we belive anything JP says anymore this IDIOT has got to go.
Dear all:
Here is something to think about. Let's say that our friend Burnett actually continues to pitch the way he is in order to land himself a substantial contract through free agency. This would mean that for the first time in his career, he may be a 20-game winner. (I'm not saying this will happen, but let's assume it does.) What this means is that we have a general manager who is so incompetent, he was unable to unload a potential 20-game winner in a climate where if I had an extra 10 miles or so on my fastball, I might even be given a contract! This is ridiculous. The only logical reason for saying that no one has contacted the Jays regarding Burnett is to cover up the fact that you were too incompetent to move him. My guess is that JP is being too greedy, and the other GMs know it. If no one is contacting JP, why is JP not contacting other teams? Why is he not being creative and packaging Burnett with some other players who have more time left on their contract. There are plenty of things that can be done by a savy general manager, unforunately, we don't have one of those!
I'm not convinced JP wants to move Burnett, I think JP thinks the same thing-that Burnett will have a good second half-which will help the Jays. For JP, it's all about saving his skin-he could care less about the future. If Burnett can help him for this season to ensure he's still here for next-then he will keep him.
Unfortunately, it's not the right thing to do for the club. With pitching in such high demand by numerous clubs, we should be able to have a bidding contest for Burnett, like Cleveland did with Sabathia.

Department of Revenue to conduct workshop for the renewal of August plates
JEFFERSON CITY -- The Missouri Department of Revenue will host a workshop Thursday, Aug. 13, from noon until 4 p.m., in Nevada to assist people who want to renew their license plates online or through the mail.
The workshop is being held to help alleviate any inconvenience that has occurred since the Nevada License Office was closed by the previous office agent on July 30. The department is reviewing four proposals from bidders to manage the office in the future, and the department hopes to select a winning bid in the near future.
The goal of the session is to directly assist people who want to renew their license plates online or to instruct people how to renew their plates themselves online or through the mail. No appointment is necessary; interested citizens may come at any time during the four-hour period. The session will be held on Thursday, Aug.13, 2009, from noon to 4 p.m. at the Nevada Chamber of Commerce, 225 West Austin, Suite 200 (Located on the lower level of the Carnegie Building).
The system that will be used by the Department of Revenue officials visiting Nevada is the Missouri Online Registration Exchange system. This online system gives
Missourians a convenient option to renew most license plates without having to drive to a local license office.
It is important to note however, that the MORE system can't be used to obtain or renew driver's licenses, titles or renew personalized license plates (college military, etc.)
Those interested in renewing license plates during the workshop should bring their renewal notice and other required documents listed on the notice These include property tax receipts for the vehicle, proof of auto insurance and a recent safety inspection (if applicable). An acceptable form of payment, such as a credit card, debit card or check (but not cash) will also be necessary for people wanting to renew their license plates at the workshops. Not all transactions can be done online, but the process for renewing by mail will also be discussed.
Customers are also welcome at other area license offices until the Nevada office is reopened. Area offices are in Lamar, Stockton, Butler and Osceola. A list of all license offices and driving directions to them are available at http://dor.mo.gov/mvdl/offloc/.
For more information about online license plate renewal and all other motor vehicle transactions, visit www.dor.mo.gov/mvdl/motorv, or call (573) 526-3669.

Bertha Jane Bryan was born in 1890 in Montezuma, Iowa. Her parents were Oliver Bryan and Mary Emma Doyle. Before Bertha Jane was ten, her family moved to Rawlins County, Kansas. She had two sisters that were living at the time of her birth, but another sister had died as an infant in 1884. Bertha also had two brothers, but the one who was the youngest died in 1910 at age 17 in Colorado.
Bertha married Clifford Franklin Blackmore in 1914 in Riverside, California. She was twenty-four at the time. So, she had lived in three states before ending up in California.
Bertha and Clifford had four children.
Carl Russell Blackmore (1914-1998) born in California
Glenn Chester Blackmore (1917-2013) born in California
Estella Marie Blackmore Gee (1919-2007) born in Arizona
Eugene Clifford Blackmore (1930- ) born in California.
Bertha Jane Bryan Blackmore and Clifford Franklin Blackmore are both buried in Loma Vista Memorial Park, in Fullerton, California. I hope to get photographs of their grave markers sometime during 2014.

How to Add Contacts to the Windows 8 People App
Although the Windows 8 People app loves to reach its fingers into any online crevice you toss its way, you can easily add people the old-fashioned way, typing them in by hand.
To add somebody to the People app, which makes those names available in your Mail and Messaging apps, follow these steps:
1Click the People tile on the Start screen.
The People app automatically stocks itself with friends listed in your online social networks like Facebook and Twitter.
2Right-click on a blank part of the People app, and the App bar rises from the program's bottom edge. Then click the New icon.
A blank New Contact form makes its appearance.
3Fill out the New Contact form.
Most of the choices are self-explanatory fields such as Name, Address, Email, and Phone. Click the Other Info button on the right to add items such as a job title, website, significant other, or notes.
The biggest challenge comes with the Account field, an option seen only by people who've entered more than one e-mail account into the Mail app. Which e-mail account should receive the new contact?
The answer hinges mainly on which cellphone you own. Choose your Google account if you use an Android phone, so your newly added account will appear on your Android phone's contacts list.
Choose the Microsoft account if you use a Microsoft phone, so the contact will appear there.
4Click the Save button.
The People app dutifully saves your new contact. If you spot a mistake, however, you may need to go back and edit the information.

- 06/10/19 @ 14:10 Alexander Edelson Hello Sebastien I wonder if you can tell whether multi-SIM UE using Gemalto eSIM (one SIM is UICC, a second one - Gemalto eSIM) can pass 3GPP certification (PTCRB)? Thank you very much. Best regards, Alexander Edelson.
- 27/08/19 @ 11:08 Lambert Jean Hi Alexandros, Many thanks for the interest you show on our blog, and on PSD2 in general. About SMS OTP, we of course refer to June 2019's EBA Opinion Paper, that actually mention it as relevant Possession factor (Table 2, Page 7). Our interpretation on how EBA supports (or does not!) SMS OTP is based on our analyzes of this process' vulnerability, and the many references of the texts to end to end security of the authentication elements. As a matter of fact, when EBA published its first opinion in June 2018, demonstrating that the current practices with SMS OTP were at least not sufficient to comply, many banks considered it as a severe warning against SMS OTP. This interpretation was also shared by ECSG, the "European Cards Stakeholders Group", strongly in favor of SMS, in its discussion with EBA. ECSG however always considered evolving to biometrics, for instance, as a must for the future. In summary SMS OTP is seen as an acceptable solution, but EBA however underlines its limits: • It is only one factor ("possession") and a 2nd factor is needed. On medium term, the usage of SMS OTP without, for instance, an additional password, would have to be reconsidered… • Other security concerns (integrity, confidentiality, SIM swapping…) that we often pointed as risky, even if not emphasized in the paper, are frequently mentioned in various EBA's texts. At the end of day, it seems now that there is a consensus to say that • SMS is not satisfying, and should at least evolve, possibly be replaced by other methods, and/or be reserved for categories of customers that cannot be reached in another way (Thales/Gemalto message for years already!) • But considering its wide deployment, its acceptance by customers and merchants, and its actual good impacts on fraud, this evolution would take time. That is precisely what the NCAs prepare to do proposing "migration paths" that will be formalized in the next weeks or months, as allowed by EBA in this year's opinion paper. Your vision "although SMS OTP solution has vulnerabilities, if you connect this solution with a knowledge element (like PIN or password) then you can manage 2FA and SCA", is a valid approach and I assume it should be backed by NCAs for the short-medium term. But at longer term, in the competition landscape, and to improve the customers' security, we still say that it should rapidly evolve, and many banks are already in this perspective.

Book Review: Food Justice
Eight million shopping carts were abandoned on the streets and sidewalks of Southern California in 2007. The shopping carts—used by shoppers without access to a car, public transit or other means to carry their heavy groceries home—symbolize one of the food injustices faced by Americans every year.
The emerging food justice movement, chronicled by Robert Gottlieb and Anupama Joshi in Food Justice, seeks to attain "equity and fairness in relation to food system impacts and a different, more just, and sustainable way for food to be grown, produced, made accessible, and eaten." The food justice movement can be loosely defined as farmers, farmworkers, gardeners, and anyone who is working to develop alternative ways to grow, produce, and distribute food.
With such an expansive subject as the basis for Food Justice, no topic is too small (vending machines in schools) or company too large (Wal-Mart) to be tackled by Gottlieb and Joshi. The book takes a sweeping look at our food system through a food justice lens. The first section of the book is a history lesson, examining how food is grown, produced, transported, distributed, and eaten in the United States and other parts of the world. The second section is a guidebook, recounting organizational and political initiatives that have challenged the food system successfully and offering pointed advice to food justice groups.
8 Ways to Join the
Local Food Movement
How to turn a lawn into lunch, swap preserves, glean, boost your food security, live the good life.
Filled with the creative vernacular of the food justice movement, the book explores problems such as food deserts, grocery gaps, and food swamps (areas without affordable fresh food); globesity (the global obesity epidemic); and malbouffe ("bad food" stripped of taste, health, and cultural or geographical identity). But for each problem Food Justice identifies, it offers a solution: farmers' markets, community gardens, and CSAs; food sovereignty (each country's right to maintain and develop basic foods); and terroir (a concept that links food to both its growing practices and cultural associations).
Though optimistic about the fledgling movement's potential, the authors also point out some of the obstacles that the food justice movement must overcome, such as the debate about whether to address inequities in the food system or to work for system change, and how to facilitate linkage of groups and issues.
Though it is still a work in progress, the food justice movement has the potential to help restructure our food system, starting from the most local of levels. Consider the Rethinkers, a group of middle school students in post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans, who were able to advocate successfully for more local, healthy fare in school cafeterias across the city. The rest of the country may not be ready to fall in line behind these forward-thinking middle schoolers, but Food Justice offers the anecdotes and advice for those ready to do so.
It all begins with food: How to restore the health and wealth of inner-city communities.
Video: In West Oakland, a community cooperative is providing an alternative to fast food and packaged snacks.
Will Allen's farm offers fresh fruits and vegetables, fish, and a taste of the delicious possibilities of farming the urban food deserts.

Photo 3: Visitors pose with their guide, c. 1900.
Questions for Photos 3 & 4
1. Examine Photo 3. These cave visitors are wearing "cave costumes." Why do you think early visitors to the cave wore "costumes" during their tour?
2. What type of lights has the guide in Photo 3 spread on the ground?
3. Examine Photo 4 of the modern day visitors. How might visiting the cave today differ from visiting it in the 19th and early 20th centuries?
4. Would visitors today still need cave costumes? Why or why not?
* The photos on this screen have a resolution of 72 dots per inch (dpi), and therefore will print poorly. You can obtain a high quality version of Photo 3 and Photo 4, but be aware that each file will take as much as 30 seconds to load with a 28.8K modem.

difficult run with the wind and my fatigue level. I still
managed to push a pretty good pace for this course. When
I race this in June hope to run it at near 6:00 pace. I
have my work cut out for me. Hamstring continues to improve

This is the sixth section of a booklet that I put together for my father-in-law's 96th birthday. His parents were Clifford Franklin and Bertha Bryan Blackmore. Section six is about Bertha's paternal grandparents. Future postings will include the other parents and grandparents of Clifford and Bertha and will include Blincow and Doyle surnames. I have also included information about the siblings of these direct ancestors.
Albert and Ann Parker Bryan
Albert Bryan, the son of Morrison BRYAN and Rhoda JOHNSON, was born on 29 July 1815 in Greene County, Ohio. Albert was one of seven children: four boys and three girls. One boy, Austin died as an infant. I believe one girl died about 1840, while another girl died about 1852.
Albert was granted a land patent #13551 (80 acres) in Jefferson County, Iowa, issued 1 January 1847. This does not seem to be the land where he lived most of his life, even though the land is in Iowa in Mahaska County. Albert lived in Poweshiek County and Mahaska County is just south of Poweshiek County.
Albert married Ann PARKER on 12 November 1850 in Jefferson County, Iowa. Ann was born on 20 February 1830 in Illinois. Albert and Ann had three boys and two girls: Oliver, William Morrison, Sarah Emily, Alice Edna and Joseph Theodore.
In 1860 Albert's occupation was listed as a master carpenter. The family owned property with a value of $350. In 1880 Albert's occupation in the census records was listed as farmer.
Albert died on 9 September 1902 in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa at the age of 87. After Albert died, in the 1910 census Ann is living with Katherine M Brown and Katie R Brown. Katie was the daughter of Katherine. Ann was listed as a boarder. If Katherine and Katie were related to Ann, I have been unable to find the connection.
Ann died on 24 January 1917 at the age of 87 in Montezuma, Iowa. Both Albert and Ann were buried in the Masonic and I.O.O.F. Cemetery in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa.
Brothers and Sisters of Oliver Bryan
Oliver BRYAN was born on 2 October 1851 in Jefferson County, Iowa. Oliver married Mary Emma DOYLE on 30 December 1880 in Achilles, Rawlins County, Kansas. More information about this couple is found in the fifth section of this series of blog postings.
William Morrison Bryan was the second child of Albert and Ann and was born on 21 December 1853 in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa. I don't know when William moved to Kansas but he married Belinda Niobe Alexander on 18 February 1882 in Rawlins County. Belinda was born in September 1857 in Indiana. William and Belinda had seven children, 4 boys and 3 girls: Jay Beady, George William, Albert, Newton Morrison, Grace, Lucy Eva and Opal Esther Bryan. In 1900 the census indicated that she had 6 children and all of them were still living. Then in 1910, the census showed that she had 7 children and only 6 were living. Grace died on 10 December 1901 in Paso Robles, California and was buried in in Paso Robles District Cemetery, plot 1-5.
In the 1900 census it stated that William was a teamster. Then in 1910 and 1920 it stated that he was a drayman. Then in 1930, he wasn't working but William and Belinda owned a house with a value of $2500 at 1918 Pine Street in Paso Robles, California.
William died sometime about the same time that Belinda did. She died on 11 August 1938 and they were both buried in Paso Robles District Cemetery, plot 119, 3 and 4.
Sarah Emily Bryan was the third child of Albert and Ann and she was born on 6 April 1856 in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa. No documents have been found after the 1860 census that have Sarah listed. However, in the 1900 census Ann stated that she had 5 children and 5 are living. Therefore, I would assume that Sarah lived until at least 1900.
Alice Edna Bryan was the fourth child of Albert and Ann and she was born on 25 September 1859 in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa. Alice married Edward Alonzo Stone on 9 September 1884 in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa. Edward was the son of Edward Stone and Sarah Hazen and was born on 15 February 1857 in Dearborn County, Indiana.
Alice and Edward had one girl Tillie.
Edward was a farmer in Ohio and South Dakota. Then in 1920 he stated his occupation was laborer; draying.
Both Alice and Edward died in South Dakota. Alice died in 1925 and Edward on 5 December 1928. The headstone is in the Platte City Cemetery in Charles Mix County, South Dakota.
Joseph Theodore Bryan was the youngest child of Albert and Ann and he was born on 7 September 1865 in Poweshiek County, Iowa. Joseph married Mary Jane Good about 1889 in Montezuma, Poweshiek County, Iowa. Mary was born on 8 December 1870 in Iowa. Joseph and Mary Jane had three children: Carl A, Thomas Andrew and Edith E Bryan.
Joseph was a farmer in 1880-1900. Then he became a salesman for a general store. By 1930 he was the proprietor of a variety store and in 1940 Mary worked in the store.
Mary Jane Good Bryan died about 1944 and she is probably buried in Jackson Township Cemetery in Montezuma, Iowa. Joseph died on 1 September 1950 in Orange County, California, and I don't know why he is in California at this time. However he is buried in Jackson Township Cemetery in Montezuma, Iowa.
