California has been one of the hardest-hit states in the recent substance abuse and addiction epidemic that has grown exponentially in the nation since 2010. In the mid-1990s, the Center for Applied Research Solutions (CARS) began working with the California Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs to monitor drug and alcohol abuse in the county. During recent decades, their findings have facilitated the improvement of drug and alcohol rehab programs, and results have improved monitoring and prevention of drug and alcohol abuse. In the face of the worst drug epidemic the world has seen in modern times, it is important to look closer at the statistics and continue to hone the way we tackle these substance problems.
El Dorado County Alcohol Statistics vs. California Statistics
Overall, El Dorado County has a high – or higher than average incidence – of drug and alcohol abuse compared to the rest of California. In 2007, 30% of Californians age 18 and older reported binge drinking. In El Dorado County, that number jumped to 34%. A 2015 report stated the same county also has a high rate of binge drinking, with 21% of residents reporting excessive or heavy drinking, compared to the California state average of 17%. Heavy consumption is defined as more than two drinks per day on average for men, and more than one per day on average for women.
Binge drinking and illicit alcohol use naturally lead to alcohol-related crimes. Between 2008 and 2010, California's alcohol-related arrest rate was about 1,345 per 100,000 people. However, the alcohol-related arrest rate for the El Dorado was even higher. Alcohol arrest rates were highest for people between 25 and 34, with individuals between 18-24 being the next highest grouping. Demographically, African-Americans received the most alcohol-related arrests in 2008 alone, with a rate of 3,035 per 100,000.
El Dorado County also experiences a plethora of alcohol-related motor vehicle accidents. In 2016, 44% of driving fatalities in the county involved alcohol. Comparatively, California's average of alcohol-related vehicle fatalities is 31%, and the nationwide average is only 14%. As with binge drinking, males were more likely to be involved in an alcohol-related motor vehicle accident than females. In 2008, nearly 2/3 of the people participating in this type of accident were male. In terms of racial demographics, blacks suffered the greatest level of alcohol-related vehicle fatalities with a rate of 366 per 100,000 people. Whites had the next-highest rate, at 147 per 100,000, and Hispanics had the lowest rate of those surveyed at 111 per 100,000.
El Dorado County Hospitalizations and Deaths Due to Drugs and Alcohol
Despite above average drug and alcohol use in El Dorado County, the hospitalization rate for alcohol and drug abuse was lower than the state average. However, death rates increased from 14.51 deaths per 100,000 statewide to 26.82 deaths per 100,000 in El Dorado County. Death rates due to alcohol use decreased slightly, while death rates due to drug use jumped from 4.41 per 100,000 throughout the state to 19.39 per 1000,000 in the county alone. Beginning in 2001, the county's drug use death rate was higher than the statewide average each year.
As of 2008, poisoning or noxious substances, which includes prescription and illegal drugs, accounted for 35% of deaths. Another 28% of deaths were attributed to motor vehicle accidents, which may or may not have involved alcohol or drugs.
Reasons for Hospitalization and Death from Drug Abuse
Many factors influence El Dorado County's continually high hospitalization and death rates due to alcohol and drug abuse. One of the first and most prevalent is access to care. There are fewer primary care physicians per 100,000 people than anywhere else in California. A large percentage of the population lives in Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs). Though there are no strict guidelines as to amounts or percentages, an HSPA is defined as an area with a shortage in healthcare providers. Therefore, some of the county residents may go without access to health care for days, weeks, or months at a time as a result of access to medical providers and specialists.
Residents also lack access to specific substance abuse treatment. They struggle to access both inpatient and outpatient care, as well as treatment individualized for their particular addictions. Many struggling with the abuse of alcohol or drugs feel that medical professionals are not "culturally competent" enough to help them, given their lack of expertise in the area of addiction.
Lack of Addiction Treatment Options in El Dorado County
Follow-up care plays a significant role in who receives treatment and stays clean and sober and who does not. Residents report a consistent lack of access to follow-up care. After a hospitalization, those struggling with substance abuse may only receive basic discharge instructions. A doctor might recommend anti-alcohol or drug abuse prescriptions. However, these prescriptions may worsen the problems, and it is evident that residents are searching for quality addiction treatment services and ongoing substance abuse counseling and treatment.
Reports from as recently as 2014 indicate residents struggle with basic nutritional literacy – in other words, they don't know how drugs and alcohol affect their brains and bodies. Although they might be able to stop substance abuse for a short while, these residents may not know the food, drink, and exercise regimens they need to heal fully. Many El Dorado County residents lack safe and affordable places to exercise, as well. This increases their risk of obesity (and related issues), muscle atrophy, chronic pain, depression, and the return to substance abuse.
Rates of Diseases and Injuries Associated With Substance Abuse
According to the Healthy El Dorado County Community Health Status Assessment of 2014, diseases associated with substance abuse have been on the rise lately. In 2014, hypertension rates for the city of El Dorado, California topped out at 385.2 hospitalizations per 10,000 people. Additionally, 485.6 out of every 10,000 El Dorado residents visited an emergency department for hypertension.
Drug use, particularly abuse of smoked or inhaled drugs such as marijuana, has increased the prevalence of various lung diseases in the County. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, and bronchitis are seen more often in the hospitals and emergency departments. In 2014, these lung problems accounted for 310.6 hospitalizations per 10,000 in the city of El Dorado and 282.3 emergency department visits per 10,000 people as well.
The county also has a higher rate of self-inflicted injury than California. El Dorado County's rate was 10.7 in 10,000 people in 2014; California's rate was 7.9 per 10,000. Reported self-injury was not directly connected to drug or alcohol abuse. However, self-injury is often a consequence of substance abuse, particularly if the user is depressed or has a dual diagnosis (mental disorder and substance abuse).
Have Improvements Occurred?
Despite these alarming statistics, there have been some improvements to the overall health of El Dorado's citizens in recent years. According to South Tahoe Now, the County has ranked among the healthiest counties in California for the last five years (2010-2015). Out of 57 ranked counties, El Dorado County ranked 7th in a 2015 report from the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
In El Dorado County, high school graduation rates are increasing while poverty rates are decreasing. Ninety-four percent of students graduate high school, making it the highest-ranked county for high school graduation in the state. Additionally, only 14% of children are living in poverty, compared to a 24% statewide average. Only 10% of adults currently report fair or poor health. Poor health is often linked with abuse of opioids, benzodiazepines, and other prescription drugs. This is significantly lower than the 18% statewide average.
The County continually ranks low in clinical care, however. As of 2015, they ranked 11th out of 57 counties. The county ranks 18th for negative health behaviors including drinking, smoking, and physical inactivity. El Dorado County ranks 31st out of 57 for physical environment. Environmental problems include pollution, inadequate housing, and long or solitary commutes to work. These and other environmental factors often play significant roles in drug and alcohol abuse.
Advice for Those Struggling with Substance Abuse
Many substance abusers hesitate to get help because of stigma, or because they fear that their "secrets" and addictions will be known to the world. However, medical confidentiality protects against such concerns and medical professionals can be an unparalleled source of hope. Your doctor or counselor's goal is to ensure you receive the treatment you need to recover.
Depending on the severity of your addiction, as well as other factors such as the substances you use, your doctor may recommend inpatient treatment. California is home to several excellent rehabilitation facilities, including Elevate Rehab, where we take a comprehensive, individualized approach to addiction recovery.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment for El Dorado County, CA Residents
Many are surprised to learn that their substance addiction actually stems from a separate trauma or mental health issue. To properly treat addiction, it is therefore imperative that the treating professional be trained and equipped to manage such a dual diagnosis. Elevate Rehab is one of the few addiction treatment centers in California with professional staff dedicated to the treatment of a dual diagnosis. If you are dealing with or suspect you are suffering from a mental health disorder, ask your doctor, counselor, or another medical professional about obtaining a dual diagnosis so that you can choose a rehab that is prepared to give you the complete treatment you need and deserve.
Don't try to quit alcohol or drugs alone or "cold turkey." The withdrawal process for many substances, especially benzodiazepines, is extremely dangerous. Seek medical detox with adequate supervision.

Highly recommend! They are great! I got regular check, , X ray, teeth cleaning, 4 teeth cavity fillings, and 2 crowns here. I'm super sensitive to teeth pain, Dr. Wong and her hygienist are very gentle. Excellent experience here. I would like to come over here even I live really far. Straight 5 stars!!!

Wong dental saved my painful tooth! I was in excruciating pain all day for a reason my old dentist didn't bother to figure out! I called Wong dental at 6 am and they returned my call as soon as they opened in got me in 30 minutes later. Dr. Wong AND her amazing dental assistants were able to easily tell that I had a cracked filling (which had been there for quite some time) which was causing my pain. Though, it has been a tough road to getting my tooth and nerve free of infection, I'm so glad it was Dr. Wong who is making it happen! Such a great staff and facility. I'm sending all of my friends and family to Wong dental.

I've been a patient of Wong dental for many years now. Since I've moved so far away, (90 miles) I still find it necessary to take the trip.
The staff is like family. Those of you who experience the fear of revealing your (dental insecurities) will find your experience to be both comforting and reassuring. I walked in to their office with a mess of a smile and when my treatment was complete, I left with a self image that could only be described as transformational.
Their facility is upscale & appointed with all the visual comforts of home. Enjoy your visit!
Chris P. 4/26/2017
Hands down, Dr. Wong is my favorite dentist so far! I've been to a bunch of them and she is extremely kind and patient! She makes sure that I am comfortable and that I do not feel any pain. Going in, I was worried she was going to be like my other dentists, but let me tell you she is extremely talented and makes sure you feel no pain what so ever.
Everybody at Wong Dental are extremely kind and is nothing but kind to you. I would 10/10 recommend Wong Dental to all of my friends and family!
Crystal T. 3/30/2017
Really good environment, the staff always kind and tend to your needs, good experience for being a big school girl. I really hate the dentist but now after being a patient here i dont mind. As a matter of fact its so much easier when you are allowed to put your headphones on.
Anthony E. 3/20/2016
Being our first time here This place is one of the best experience and so friendly dentist that I have been to so far. And my daughter loves it and wasn't scared at all. Thanks to Suny Apodaca and all the other friendly staff there. We will continue on going back here for all of our visits. Amazing people! 100% A+++++
April G. 11/5/2015
It was my first time here and they got me in and out real quick; x-rays, and teeth cleaning all in one sitting. I had to go leave for class by 215, my appointment was at 1, and I was done by 2:10.
Very professional and nice staff, (everyone complemented me on my eyelashes because they are so long). Everyone was very welcoming and genuinely interested in in me as a client and my dental concerns, my questions were answered immediately and I have no doubts. Overall very good service, I am happy with my teeth cleaning, they made me feel fresh and new again! Definitely recommend this dental office.
Andrea A. 11/29/2014
The staff is really nice. Like that they call and text just to make sure coming in. I did not wait that long. I just got a check like how they explained things to and showed you. The billing they also explain and gave me list what's what and choices and told a way help with a payment. Staff are friendly
Gwendolyn M. 5/13/2015
Really good to my mom, who can be a handful. She had to have 18 teeth removed for dentures. They made sure she was comfortable and didn't feel a thing! She's a trooper, they let me sit outside the room for moral support, I left after the first extraction! Very patient and kind staff. My brother and I are helping mom with some of the costs, we called right into the office to help her with the payments and they took the payment right over the phone.
Very clean office, entire staff professional and kind, but my moms favorite is the young guy who makes the dentures. He was really sweet to her
Angela B. 7/10/2014
Great Service. Well maintained and trained staff. Always friendly and willing to work with you. Got veneers done here and they were in and out quickly and did an excellent job.

Highly recommend! Dr. Wong is really nice and gentle. Wonderful experience here. I got teeth cleaning, x Ray, cavity fillings, and two crowns here. Most are covered by insurance.
Crystal T.
Dr. Wong is extremely kind and patient. She makes sure that you are 100% comfortable and is extremely talented at what she does. She knows how to make you feel less pain when it comes to giving shots for numbing. Dr. Wong has been my favorite dentist and I would 10/10 recommend her to all of my friends and family!
Recently moved to the area and switched to this dental practice. Dr. Lin is very courteous as are all her staff. The place always looks clean and organized. They explained my coverage clearly and worked with me to cover my costs. My previous dental practice could learn a thing or two from this place.
April Y.
I don't usually write a review but I feel that this place deserve a five star. Dr. Wong and her staff are very professional and friendly. I had my regular cleaning done and had my wisdom tooth taken out. They took care of me and always following up with me to see how I am doing afterwards. Unlike other dentist that I've been to, Dr. Wong is very honest about the procedures that you only need, which I very much appreciate. I would definitely come back and recommend this dental to everyone. Thank you for being honest which is hard to find nowadays.
Kool C.
I have been going to this dental office a few times in the past. I would recommend Dr Wong and her staff to anyone who is looking for a new dentist. She is patient and knowlegable about what she is doing. The office is clean and ladies at the front desk are very friendly. I would definitely go back in near future.
Aung W.
My recent visit to Dr Wong was great. She took time to explain what I need to do. I would recommend making an appointment before you go. I am happy that her office opens on Sundays.
Mindy B.
I've been going to different dentists every year and I am glad that I found Dr Wong last year. She is patient, gentle and care about her patients.
Michael O.
Wow!! There are not enough words to express how grateful I am for Dr. Manalese and his team!! I am a truck driver and on the road for seven weeks at a time, so I don't have time to come back. I called his office and explained my situation. The minute I arrived in town they took me in. I was experiencing the worst toothache ever. All the treatment I needed to get rid of my toothache was done in one day. I even needed a crown. My experience with Dr. Manalese and his staff was amazing and very professional!! Thank you!
Ayesha M.

Nancy M.

Benjamin F.
Awesome friendly staff! Very professional, they really know their stuff and take their time to explain everything. I have never enjoyed going to the Dentist until I found Manalese Dental!
Vishal S.
Great staff, good quality of work, great office space, waiting room. Dentist is extremely knowledgeable. Takes the time to explain what procedure he will do. What alternative options there are and then lets you decide on the proper course of action. I never feel rushed. Dentist takes the time to listen and see what my teeth are doing. Any future concerns are explained.
Bob N.
I have been a patient of Dr. M for several years. The practice is honest, clean and professional. I have had great treatment at all times. I do find that they have turnover in staff, so if you want to see the same tech, you will likely be disappointed. Their new office is a big improvement with clean, new spacious exam rooms and a nice waiting area.
Marco G.
Deep cleaning and some fillings later, and so far so good. Friendly staff, professional, clean, and fast service!!!! Makes you want to get a cavity just to come in!!!!
Becky M.
Friendly and professional. Fixed my broken front tooth filling which came loose and they fixed it again for free two weeks later. I will continue to frequent Dr. Manalese's office and recommend them to others. I appreciated both times being fitted into their already busy schedule on such short notice. The work they did looks very natural and the color matches perfectly with the rest of my teeth.

EUGENE, Ore. — LaShawn Merritt considers his 200-meter races to be more of a lark than anything else.
Think of the possibilities if they ever become a serious pursuit.
Already qualified for the Olympics in his "real" race, the 400, Merritt pulled away for an easy victory in the opening round of 200-meter qualifying at the rain-soaked U.S. Olympic Trials on Thursday, posting the night's third-best time at 20.09 seconds.
He already has the world's best time this year, at 19.78 seconds, and if world record-holder Usain Bolt's hamstring injury turns out to be worse than expected — well, who knows what could happen?
"It's not really a serious thing for me," said Merritt, who also owns the fastest time at 400 meters this year. "I just want to have some fun with it, and if I have the ability to do it, I figure I'll do it. I'll try to make it as light as possible."
Among those who take the 200 more seriously are worlds silver medalist Justin Gatlin, Tyson Gay, Mike Rodgers and Wallace Spearmon, who is trying to return to the upper-echelon of this race after struggling with injuries. All made it through their first-round heats with ease.
Allyson Felix also views it as more work than play, and is trying to become the first woman to win Olympic gold in both events. Felix is already qualified at 400 meters and begins her quest in the 200, her specialty, on Friday.
Merritt could become the first man to win a 200-400 Olympic double since Michael Johnson in 1996. But his specialty is the 400 and he still has some goals there.
Among them: "World record," he said. He won the Olympic gold in 2008, but pulled out of the first round in 2012 with a hamstring injury.
In his world, the 200 is mainly good training.
And yet, watching him pumping his fists as he hit the stretch, then steadily pulling away for a .44-second cushion over the second-place finisher, it was easy to see why he's at least giving this a try.
"If anybody can do it, LaShawn can do it," Gatlin said. "To watch him run is amazing. I know he's got it in the tank. So let's see him put it out there."
Gatlin, a more seasoned veteran than Merritt at both the distance and the art of the double, saved energy in his opener, especially with rain starting to soak the track at Hayward Field. He ran the 200 in 20.32 and finished .05 behind Ameer Webb. But all these prelim times go in the wastebasket almost as soon as they're recorded.
"Just play it smart," Gatlin said. "I'm on to the next round. Almost a blueprint of what I did in the 100. Go faster. Rise to the occasion."
Other happenings on Day 6 of Olympic Trials:
SHOT DIVA: Michelle Carter already had her Olympic spot wrapped up. Then, she did the same thing as at world indoor championships in the spring: She won the meet on the last throw of the night. Her mark of 64 feet, 31/4 inches beat out Raven Saunders and knocked Felisha Saunders into third. Said veteran Jill Camarena-Williams, who finished fifth in what she said would be her last Olympic Trials: "I always wait to see Michelle's last throw. I would never, ever leave."
TRIPLE JUMP: Two-time NCAA champion Keturah Orji, who once dreamed of being an Olympic gymnast, will get a chance at another kind of title. She won the women's triple jump and will head to Rio. On the men's side, Christian Taylor's quest for an Olympic repeat is on track. He needed one jump to make it through qualifying, and will try to secure his spot Saturday.
THE TOUGHEST JUMP: Stephanie Garcia was in the mix for an Olympic spot in steeplechase until the final lap. First, she got passed for the third position. Then, in her quest to catch up, she stumbled over the last barrier and went tumbling. Emma Coburn, Courtney Frerichs and Colleen Quigley got the trips to Rio. Garcia said she still earned a victory of sorts: "I knew if I didn't make it, then I was going to make those who did work very, very hard," she said.
MORE MEDALS: Among Olympic medal winners who made it through their qualifying rounds Thursday were Leonel Manzano (1,500), Bershawn Jackson (400 hurdles) and Dawn Harper-Nelson (100 hurdles). Harper-Nelson, the 2008 gold medalist, was in the same heat with American record holder Keni Harrison, but barely noticed. "I tell my husband, `Tell me what lane I'm in and what heat. The rest doesn't matter,'" Harper-Nelson said.
QUOTABLE: "With (Jamaica's) rules, hopefully they'll let him in. If not, it might be the first time the Olympic committee sends a personal invite to an athlete to come to the games. They'd lose some money if he didn't show up." — Spearmon, on the chances of Bolt making the Olympics despite his recent hamstring problems.

Goa, renowned all over the globe for its stunning seashores, is likely one of the hottest destinations on the planet and also a hub of feisty tradition, pulsating night time life, mouth-watering cuisines, and aqua video games like water scooting, biking, surfing, parasailing and boating. Other than all these, the lively and vibrant culture of Goa takes you back to the colonial era that has its personal distinctive traits. Goa is positioned at south-western area of Indian Peninsula and is also referred to as the seaside capital of India. The state has been dominated by a number of dynasties and it was ruled by Portuguese around 450 years and depicts the right mix of eastern and western tradition.
There are flush bathrooms at some places alongside the Inca Path, together with at some lunch and tenting spots, however these are principally holes within the floor. And you may must bring bathroom paper in with you. The Chocolate Tour Trip is about 5 minutes of how chocolate is made and where it comes from. My children being pretty younger, loved the journey, particularly the singing cows. Can't beat the singing cows. We superior to the outdoor portico of gaping mouths that greeted me after I first arrived. Here, the guide shared a woeful story of two sisters: Lois and Audrey Higgs. We will begin our tour by leaving Kona and taking the lower highway referred to as the Queen's Highway, driving northwest to Kohala. THERE ISN'T A ADDED COST FOR THIS SPECIAL ENCAMPMENT OCCASION – simply the standard day by day Park admission payment: Adults $eight, Seniors $7, and children $5.
I've at all times admired cyclist, whether or not they do it for enjoyable or for the cash. I know it takes onerous work, discipline and willpower. I can't even experience a motorbike, do not understand how, although I've tried a number of instances. South Korea as a destination is so underrated. I might love to visit National Park and Jeju Island! No, I've never been there…but those photos make me want to go! It's lovely! What an ideal lens! I'll be lensrolling this (plus a few of your different Disney lenses) on my Disney Princesses lenses. Los tours parten todos los días a las 08:30 AM y a las thirteen:30 PM desde nuestra oficina central de Huge Deal Excursions. Tienen una duración de aproximadamente 5 horas.
Invoice – Thank you. It was a fun time and South Dakota was beautiful in a country method, a lot totally different from the place I'm from. Although I have been there earlier than, I loved returning and would undoubtedly return. Many cyclocross riders fit an older saddle to their racing bike because the common dismounts and remounts could be hard on the saddle and they can get pretty crushed-up over the course of the racing season. Thanks…Based in your ideas I might recognize pretend Beats… that saved me some cash and I'll be certain the seller of the faux beats might be prosicuted!
You continue to the Zöpfli, where the Nightwatchman introduces you to medieval legislation and order. Study medieval prosecution, interrogation strategies, corporal punishment and demise penalties. If I couldn't go there, this was the following neatest thing, Karen. Your pictures are fabulous and the descriptions made me really feel as if I had been on the tour.
San Salvador is the capital city of Central America's smallest country, El Salvador, and is dwelling to over half 1,000,000 individuals, in a rustic of little over six million folks in total. Thanks for organizing all of this data. I have been to two Buddhist temples now (residing in China), but have not really perceive what I was observing – just enjoying the beauty. Great perception right here, and nice pics! Kenosha, WI, with a inhabitants of 100,000, is the first city we come to after crossing the border from Illinois to Wisconsin. We are actually headed straight north. Kenosha, WI is a really good, rising metropolis.
On the day of the tour, you start at Figaro's, check in, choose up your tour map, enjoy espresso, juice, and goodies (by donation), and then head off to the gardens. A very useful hub. I've by no means been to Italy, but always needed to go and I hope some day to make it there. I'll hang on to your hub in case I ever want it for reference. Voted up and helpful. I might change Jack standing because the achieved player to the Greatest Golfer of the Century as an alternative. To not put Tiger down but Jack is the ambassador to the sport and the right position model for all golfers to aspire to be. My thoughts was saturated with the fact of life's promise to finish. However mine hadn't.

Sometimes, in time of distress, you forget about the good, and only see the bad.
Yesterday, my oldest daughter started crying again because we are moving. She just brought it up on her own. Came over to me, told me she didn't want to move, and started crying. I feel so badly for her. Unfortunately, I know that she will have to move a few more times in her life. Such is the life that her father and I chose for her being a military child. She was very upset.
I started to console her, told her that we were taking everything that made this house our home with us. I explained that a house is just a building. It is walls, carpet, and a roof, but it is not a home. It isn't a home until someone moves in, and makes it a home. Home will always be where ever we are together, and of course, I had to use the line that home is where her heart is. She got it, and it did make her feel better, but it really made me start thinking about our home right now.
Right now, it is putting me through so much stress. With all the problems it has had, and the owner trying to force us to move out early, totally interrupting our plans, it makes me feel like this place is nothing but trouble. It also makes me think of the first house my daughter lived in. It was much smaller than this one. When we lived in it, I remember thinking that it had so many issues. Sometimes, I would talk a lot of trash about that little place. Now that I remember back though, it really served us well. We made it a great little home for the time that we had it, and I have a lot of fond memories of it. Now, thinking back, I recall that it wasn't the house that was the problem, it was the maintenance staff that took care of the housing development that we lived in. I remember their incompetence. I remember their not being able to complete a job well or timely, but that was them, and not so much the house. I also remember that I could look out my back windows and see the gulf of Mexico. I remember that little bougainvillea that was growing up the side of the house. I remember the mole that started to live there beside our walkway just before we moved. We tell my daughter now that was her first pet. = ) Yes, that house served us very well.
Now, I am still very stressed out here, and all I see are the problems and issues, but I expect that I will look back some years from now and remember that this house served us very well. Of course, by then, this will just be another building, and we will have moved on to make somewhere else, maybe even two somewhere elses, a home.
My poor daughter will undoubtedly get upset again about the whole move, but she is really very lucky. She has something that many people are never lucky enough to have; a real home. A house can fall down. It can burn to the ground. It is just a fallible building. A home, though, is something that you carry with you. It is an emotional state that a family makes no matter where they are. A home is much more valuable than a house, and she has what I think is a priceless one.

I used to work with a guy who hated snakes.
However, he was always watching TV shows about them. When I asked him about it, he couldn't explain why he spent so much time watching snake shows on the Discovery Channel. It sounds odd, until you realize that most motorcyclists spend an inordinate amount of time watching, reading, and diagramming crashes.
I'm no different. I love a good crash story, whether I'm telling it or listening to it. When I met the lovely Mrs. Lemmy, she noticed I had some road rash on my right side. I had been cut off by a maniac making a three-lane change to make his exit. I decided to test the traction of the gas tank as opposed to the tires. I wasn't too battered, so I stood up, picked up my scoot, and nursed it home. I then began scrounging parts. I was particularly proud in that instance to have gotten my little motorcycle healed up before I did. I had road rash on me, but my bike looked mint again. (Well, as good as that ugly mutt ever could. I was broke, and it was the best I could do at the time.)
Not too long ago, the video crew at RevZilla was determining the feasibility of running a camera bike offroad. I saddled up on our COO's BMW F 800 GS, and we got our cameraman Ryan strapped in. Ryan used an apple box to simulate the camera rig he usually uses to shoot so we didn't ruin anything expensive, and we headed off to the gnarly stuff. We dumped the bike in various lowsides until it became apparent that we could probably shoot this way, but busting up the camera rig was a distinct possibility. The bike had plenty of protection on it, but we were both a bit banged up and looked significantly worse than the Beemer.
My most egregious crash, however, occurred shortly after I began working at RevZilla. My commuter bike at that time was a 1994 Kawasaki Concours. That big old dinosaur was a comfy, reasonably quick bike, so it was easy to pile up the miles on it. And pile them on I did! I rode that bike over 120 miles each workday, rain or shine, hot or cold.
It got to be a bit of a joke, because I just bundled up warmer each day as winter set in. A few Zillans asked me when I'd stop riding for the winter. Well, I never! I spent quite a few winters in the Show Me state without a car. Of course what didn't sink it was that I had done that commute as a kid on little Hondas — a CB350 one year and a CMX250 another — on roads with 25 mph limits, not freezing my cookies off ripping down the Pennsy Turnpike.
I shot my mouth off a bit. Meyer Snowplows makes a bumper sticker that I've seen since I was knee-high to a grasshopper that proclaims "Let it snow." I put one on the windshield of my Connie and soldiered on.
If there was significant snowfall on the ground, I was taking my truck, but it really was not often I did that. If the plows had run, so did I. By late January, I was running some heated gear, and temperatures began dipping into the single digits up on Lemmy Mountain. At this point, this had become a hard row to hoe, but I do enjoy the occasional moto challenge. A few Zillans seemed duly impressed, but the joke was on them. They had mistaken stupidity for moxie.
One day in February, I came to work, bundled up like a snowman in my onesie commuting suit. The streets were clear, but it was cold. I left for home around 6:30 p.m. On I-95, I noticed flurries, but I thought that in the hour of riding ahead of me they would probably not be too detrimental.
Then the squall happened.
Visibility went to doodly-squat. Snow began piling up at a rather alarming rate. I abandoned my previous plan — boogie at 80 mph and try to outrun the mess — and backed off to 50 mph with my hazard lights on. (That was a nice feature to have for a 1994 model year bike!)
And then I came to a bridge. Bridges tend to ice up well before roads, and this one had turned into a skating rink. I had not planned for this. There were cars littering the bridge that had done exactly what I was about to do. My tires suddenly turned to marbles. I checked a mirror and saw the headlights behind me doing a dangerous dance, and there did not seem to be a way to safely get to the shoulder. Fortunately, I didn't have to, because my beloved Kawi decided to take a little slide on its side. I watched it skittering down the pavement, throwing sparks, and watched cars reacting sliding all over.
I finally stopped sliding. I wasn't banged up, so I got to the bike and got it off to the shoulder as quickly as I could. As I stopped to wait for my wife (Mrs. Lemmy has been a chase vehicle pilot more than once), I witnessed 13 more crashes on the same bridge.
I try to keep 'em upright, but it's an uphill battle. Crashing is not a mark of shame, if it can serve as a reflection point for a thoughtful rider. Crashing can be lethal, and that's something to be considered very carefully. I've been fortunate so far, but I operate under no delusions that I am invincible. The wrecks seem to come fewer and farther between these days, but I doubt I'll eliminate them totally until I hang it up for good.
They may be scarier than a snake show, but I still want to see the videos and hear the stories. Whaddya got for me?

NYC Trip - Asian Food Galore
Thursday, December 29, 2011 2 comments
Disclaimer: This post is full of food porn pics, so if you're hungry, please x out and come back later. Trust me.
My cousin took me to this restaurant called Malay Restaurant in Flushing the day before Christmas. They've been raving about this restaurant all morning so we ended up going there for lunch. If you know Flushing, it's almost like the real China Town in Queens or New York altogether. We got there and it was super packed. I think we got the last available table at that time. We ordered few dishes and shared everything together. OMG, this food makes my regular Pinang Restaurant by my house taste like crap. It was so good and so cheap! 0_0 I'm definitely coming back to this restaurant when I'm in NY. Definitely. Other than the Chicken Curry Noodles, my cousin and her husband ordered everything else, so I'm not too sure about the names.
|Chicken Curry Noodles
|Beef Chow Kwe Tiaw
|Beef Satay
|ABC Ice
|Noodle Set with Meatballs below
|Grilled Chicken Rice
|Pork Soup Dumpling
|Scallop Dish (forgot the name)
|Prawn dish (forgot the name)
Overall we covered Malaysia, Indonesia and Chinese food. Actually, we did cover Japanese food on my last day in NYC. However, I did not have any pictures taken with my regular camera since I was meeting my friend Kazusa. I don't get to see her that often , so I didn't want to bother our precious time with too many picture taking. Although I did make few shots with my iPhone. The restaurant name is Gyukaku in Midtown area. It's a Japanese BBQ style like Yakiniku. The restaurant is on the second floor surrounded by glass wall foreseeing the city. It's very nice. On lunch time, they offer pre-fixe packages for 2 and 4 people with different kind of meat, soup, salad, rice and side dishes. We added some more veggies and dessert at the end.
HAHA I think I'm so full after finishing this post. I think I'm going to find something to eat now.
9/11 Memorial

Pretty Downtown
NYC trip was great. The city overall was actually less crowded this time although, I should differ on the big tourist sites such as Rockefeller Center, Times Square and so on. The weather was very cold but still bearable to be outside. We were so lucky to get the passes to go to the 911 Memorial on Christmas day (we don't celebrate Christmas). These are some pics we took by the river while waiting for the entrance time to the memorial. Don't you just love the golden hour. More pics to come. Xoxo.

It was horrible, tasted like medicine. I tried it hot, I tried it cold, I tried it mixed with other beverages. In the end I threw all the packages away that I had bought. What a waste!

*"Young Sheldon" will premiere Monday, Sept. 25, then return on Thursday, Nov. 2. "9JKL" debuts Oct. 2.
CBS is sticking to its usual strategy with its fall 2017 schedule. Six new shows are on the fall schedule, most of them getting help from established shows as lead-ins.
The network will use "The Big Bang Theory" to launch two new comedies in the fall. On Mondays in the first few weeks of the season it will lead into "9JKL," starring and created by Mark Feuerstein ("Royal Pains"), which the network is touting as having an "Everybody Loves Raymond" vibe. Another new show, "Me, Myself & I," also joins the Monday lineup.
After CBS' "Thursday Night Football" commitment ends and "Big Bang" moves back to its usual Thursday home, it will lead into spinoff "Young Sheldon," starring Iain Armitage ("Big Little Lies") as the 9-year-old version of Jim Parsons' "Big Bang Theory" character.
The other newcomers for fall are "SEAL Team," which will launch Wednesdays at 9 as "Criminal Minds" moves back to 10 p.m.; "SWAT," an action-oriented cop show coming Thursdays at 10; and "Wisdom of the Crowd," starring Jeremy Piven as a tech entrepreneur who pours his efforts into a crowd-sourcing app to help solve crimes.
Returning shows "Man with a Plan," "Code Black," "Elementary," "The Amazing Race" and "Undercover Boss" will all air later in the season. Two new shows, comedy "By the Book" and drama "Instinct," are also set for later on.

I've been here before.
I've tried and failed on numerous occasions, but I had a foot hit me square in the rear this week. Time to get back at this whole Internet thing and make a real effort (Twitter's still around right?).
I love technology, adore my career and can't get enough of the marketing world. All that being said, I've been terrible at utilizing the 1st to enhance the 2nd and prove that I'm good at the 3rd.
Per the swift kick in my ass: I was visited by a former executive at my very large company. She has been gone for 3 years now and has thrived…evidenced by her large smile, positive outlook on life and genuine excitement to be where she is right now (as she put it, she left the corner office for an office in the corner).
I like where I'm at and I've learned a lot. So much that I probably have a lot to share with people who may be casually interested in the same stuff as me. I also know that I'm not going anywhere quickly, by quietly accomplishing my job in my corner cubicle.
All of the experts agree…the web is your resume, and it never hurts to use it to your advantage. I'll be developing my voice and working through that publically over the coming weeks, I hope to make it interesting to a select few or a really kick ass private journal.
Talk to you soon…

Hi guys, new post here and today i'm going to share my knowledge on common attacks methods that most stressers/booters will use and they range from simple UDP attacks to layer 7 methods. I know when i started using stressers/booters i didn't know the methods and what they do so hopefully this will clear it up for some of you guys.
Joomla – Similar to XMLRPC, Joomla uses a vulnerability in a site, to amplify the attack. So obviously this attack method is good and very strong against websites. Also like XMLRPC Joomla is a layer 7 attack method.
SSDP – Consists of alot of reflectors and uses an exploit configuration weaknesses in servers and is very powerful and on the rise, It is recorded that around 42% of all attacks are over 10Gbps using this attack method. So if it's available it worth considering to use.
UDP- UDP is a simple attack where multiple UDP packets are sent to a target, the UDP packets are usually large sizes so can do a bit of damage but UDP packets can be filtered and discarded so it is possible to avoid this attack, if you plan to try take down simple home connection UDP can do that with no fuss.
UPD-lag- This involves the same methods and protocols as UDP but as i said the packets are usually a large size however UDP-lag has small packets which are designed to only lag the target, this works great on home connection and trying to slow the network down to little resources, but be careful as on small home connections it might well take it down. With UDP-lag you may also see on some booters/stresser a method called "home connections" this method consists of the same thing.
DNS Amplification – DNS can increase the size of the normal UDP packets from around 40 bytes to above the maximum-packet size of 4000 byte. The other great thing about this attack method is that its very hard to protect against as explained the data comes from a list of legit servers that have valid users.
CHARGEN – CHARGEN is old and still commonly used DDos attack method its alot like DNS and spoofs the IP so that the request can be accepted, CHARGEN attack causes a loop from the target to the host taking the network down, although CHARGEN isn't the strongest out there it is still dam strong for what it does.
SNMP – SNMP is a very strong spoofed attack method which like DNS uses servers to spoof the IP and send out information to a target and is a greatly used attack method know for its simplicity and strength. SNMP only sends out little data but the data can be amplified to 25 times larger than what was sent, SNMP if good for testing them big networks!
XMLRPC- Is a good attack method for websites that uses a wordpress exploit to amplify the attack and cause some real damage. Although the exploit used to amplify the attack can be patched pretty easy when its not its damage can be done.
NTP – NTP is very strong spoofed attack method that uses servers to send out the data, with attacks reaching 100Gbps+ NTP is big thing to look out for use this attack method to get some real power behind an attack.
ESSYN- SYN uses a TCP protocol and even being used from home connection can be powerful but when used from big servers like stresser services use it gets even better, SYN requests are send to the target and requests for a answer and but no answer is given and the network grinds to a halt , shutting it down.
If any of you are still unclear on what the methods are and what they do, or i missed a method you want to know about leave a comment and i will add it in! Thanks for reading guys and i hope you enjoyed it!
So get started booting and head over to: http://networkstresser.com

Halloween Actiities: Spooky Music Activities with DIY instruments10.28.2013
Couple years ago my sister-in-law and I decided we would put together our own music class to save on costs. We invited all our mommy friends every week to join us. We had a welcome song, activities, and a TON of fun!
I'm going to share a couple of Halloween activities we did in the class and I hope you have fun with your little ones too in this spooky season.
1. Old Miss Witch (Are you sleeping)
Old Miss Witch, old Miss Witch
How you fly, how you fly
On my broomstick
Way up high
Sing the song while doing the actions with your toddler on the floor-
Bicycle legs
Arms overhead
Arms across
Lift legs
2. Ghost sounds Copy cat
This activity teaches little children about high and low sounds. You can also explain that some sounds aren't very scary when you know where they're coming from. Making this sound may help your child not be so scared of spooky sounds.
Make the ghost sound "Eeeww" for a 10 seconds. Prompt your child to imitate you. You can say "my turn" before and "your turn" after. You can also give your child praise after when they copy you and give smiles. (Repeat after every step)
Make the sound and bring your voice low.
Make the sound bringing your voice high.
Now, change your voice going up and down in pitch.
Start doing different patterns.
3. Slow/Fast
This activity is easy to do if you don't like to sing. It also teaches slow and fast.
Put on your favorite Halloween song. Some we used are the Monster Mash, Purple People Eaters, Thriller, and Zombie Jamboree.
Dance around in a circle with your child while playing with/without musical instruments. Prompt your child to go "slow" walking in the circle and "fast". You can say "slower" and "faster" to have a little fun. My children loved it when we would build starting at slow and going faster and faster and faster.
You can also have your child sit and play their instrument doing the same slow and fast game.
DIY Musical Instruments
You can also have your child sit and play their instrument doing the same slow and fast game.
DIY Musical Instruments
If you don't have any instruments you can always make your own. Here's some DIY ideas that are super easy and recycle things from around the house.
- Percussion - Pot, pan, or metal baking pan with a spoon.
- Drum - Formula or oatmeal container.
- Shaker - Baby food jar with beans.
- Bells - Toilet paper roll with pipe cleaners and bells. Or Pipe cleaners and bell. The toilet paper roll helps little hands hold the bells.
- Guiro - Can, felt, spoon. Hot glue the felt around the edge of a cleaned can. Show your child how you can run the spoon against the sides. They can bang inside and out as well.
Hope you have fun! Music can be such a great outlet and way to bond.

U.C. Berkeley Goes Wide on YouTube
Situation: Back in the infancy of the Internet in 1995, the University of California at Berkley started a service through its Berkeley Multimedia Research Center to make many of its courses available online to students. Today, those efforts generate Webcasts of 53 classes.
That evolution began with a project that used RealNetworks; Real Player video player and a handful of computers. The center began taping lectures to post on the Internet as a study tool for students and in 2001, that program moved into the educational technology services division at the university as more teachers requested for their courses to be shot and offered online.
Since then the technology services division under Ben Hubbard, co-manager for Webcast Berkeley, has built technology to capture the video and audio for the Webcasts of the classes and has steadily expanded the number of classrooms that are equipped to capture lectures on video.
His division sends out invitations by mail to teachers who are using classrooms that have the Webcasting equipment. Those lecture halls are covered by cameras including a number of Sony DSR-250 (DVCAM), Sony DSR-300, Sony DSR-390, Sony DSR-400, and Panasonic HVX-200 (HD) and nNovia HDD DV Recorders. To edit, Berkeley, uses Apple Final Cut Studio, Canopus Procoder, Sorensen Squeeze, and Real Producer. Sound and images are processed through computers, video encoding equipment, servers and other essential hardware co-located at the school?s data center.
For each lecture, a camera operator shoots the lecture, sends it to a central computer database and posts it as a Webcast for live and archival viewing.
The school also includes more than 150 full courses in video available via the archives. Mr. Hubbard relies on a course administrator, Richard Bloom, to handle the daily activities of the management of the program.
?His job is to make sure all the Web casts work each week and to provide outreach and training to the faculty,? Mr. Hubbard said.
The school relies on students as camera operators, who set up the equipment at the start of the class and break it down at the end.
Problem: This fall, Berkley wanted to offer the courses to a wider audience. While anyone can access the lectures on http://www.webcast.berkley.edu, Mr. Hubbard believed the university reach impact more people with broader Web distribution.
Solution: Berkeley has been offering the lectures on iTunes since April 2006 and started offering classes on YouTube in early October.
?YouTube is a better platform for our content than other sites. We have more control over the environment and it?s easier for people to access,? Mr. Hubbard said.
The production costs for a single course per semester are about $4,300 to post online video across the university site, iTunes and YouTube. That includes the student labor, the cost of the computers, cameras and equipment and the staff that works to produce the Webcasts.
Mr. Hubbard?s division charges $2,000 per department to participate to help cover costs.
Evaluation: Because the University of California is a public university, it doesn?t evaluate return on investment in the same way a corporation does.
?We feel it is an outstanding study tool. If you are ill and miss a class you can catch up and watch it online. If you are a non-native English speaker you can go back and watch it over again,? Mr. Hubbard said.
In 2006, Berkeley logged 4.3 million views for the 53 classes on its site and in its archives. In the first two-plus weeks on YouTube, Berkeley content attracted 900,000 views.
?We really felt as a public institution this is sort of our mission,? he said. ?As a program we can?t quite reach as many people as we could with YouTube. That says something about our mission?to make our content accessible.?

Spread the Word Through Roblox
In this day in age with social communication being very popular it's exciting to have a game like Roblox. There is a great in chat feature which allows players from all over the world to share their thought. Keep in mind this is all while interacting in a real time 3d environment. You can make and publish your own games. Making them popular can be very difficult though. Make sure your game has a really good icon. This will ensure that people will click on it because of its visual appeal. Take a lot of screenshots of your Roblox game showcasing your highlights of the game. Add a lot of achievements, badges, and if possible adventures. With promoting anything, of course share your link among your social circles. Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch are all great platforms to meet and chat with other Robloxians. I've noticed lately many are offering free robux as an incentive. After searching, I found a great tutorial for everything mentioned above here. They simple add an area with a hack or cheat that can add them to your game. This doesn't cost anything, which makes it all the more appealing. If indeed your world does take off, you can make some decent money from advertising. Companies will approach you with offers if they see your created world is bringing in a lot of traffic. Makes frequent updates, and always remember to answer questions that are being asked.

Makkah to have world's largest & tallest hotel
JEDDAH: The Saudi city of Makkah is about to see the largest hotel in the world with 10,000 rooms, 70 restaurants, shopping centres and helipads.
The project valued at $3.5 billion will be ready in two years – by 2017.
Covering an area of 686,000 square feet, Abraj Kudai will also have royal suites, prayer halls and a convention center — all in 12 separate towers.
The focal point, however, will be the central dome, expected to be one of the largest and tallest in the world.
As the site of the hotel is only about a mile from the Masjid-e-Haram, it is expected to host many of the millions of pilgrims.
However, guests may need a robust bank account to book a room as the target will be high-end customers — who can afford four-star luxury in 10 towers and five-star hotels in two.
As for the architecture, the Abraj Kudai looks like a semi-futuristic, sand-colored, desert version of a 1930s Manhattan high-rise.
It is being created by multinational design group Dar al-Handasah.
