Jarek-Krajka's-writing-activities-and-resources (from Using the Internet in ESL Writing Instruction. The Internet TESL Journal, Vol. VI, No. 11 (November 2000). The following quotations were taken from the article.
Suggested Activities for Developing Language Skills:
Rita-Zeinstejer's-suggested-writing-activities (posted to email@example.com on Sept. 19, 2003; reprinted with permission)
go to an agony column (one suggested : www.teenadvice.com) and work in groups to answer letters, do editing, discuss possible solutions.
work on biographies: do research and compare different sources.
work on pets and the different choices in countries round the world
compare celebrations/ festivals and produce reports.
use sites provided by museums to work with famous paintings, comparing views/ interpretations: writing descriptions, report
visit Disney virtually and write a letter to a friend.
Barry Bakin's Lessons with ESL Action Photos -- multimedia grammar + writing projects
The Open Diary <http://www.freeopendiary.com/> -- The Open Diary is a great site to practice your reading or writing. A diary is a journal that you write in every day. You can write about what you did that day, or you can write about your thoughts and feelings. It's even a great place to write down new vocabulary or notes from class! At this site, you can make your own diary, and write in it whenever you want. You can make it private (only you can read it) or a public (anybody can read it) diary. Your identity will always be completely anonymous (nobody will know who you are). You can even make your own special design for your diary!
The Death Clock <http://www.deathclock.com> -- The famous Death Clock will tell you the exact day that you will die. It will even count down the seconds for you! Just enter your birthday and sex, and the Death Clock will give you the bad news. Check out the Dead Letter Room to read some interesting email. PROJECT: Of course, this site is not very scientific. The computer just subtracts your age from the average life span of a man or woman. It doesn't ask you about your health or your lifestyle. But, IF you really could know the exact day that you would die, would you want to know that information or not? Why or why not? IF you knew the exact day, would you live your life differently? If so, how would it be different? Write a short report or have a discussion in class.
Celebrity Address List <http://www.amug.org/~scrnsrc/> -- Who's your favorite celebrity? Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Meg Ryan? At this site, you can find the addresses of more than 1000 celebrities! The names are listed in alphabetical order. PROJECT: Find your favorite celebrity and write a fan letter to him/her! Tell him/her why he/she is your favorite celebrity. For example, you might write to Keanu Reeves, "I thought you were really great in "Speed." Of course, if your celebrity is very popular, he/she might not actually read your letter, because they get thousands of letters every week. But an assistant might read it, and if you ask for an autographed photo, you will probably receive one in the mail! Read the FAQ for more tips on writing a fan letter.

Creating Digital Magazines / Newspapers
Tech&Learning, September 13, 2010
While creating digital magazines or newspapers can be done in a word processor, there are dedicated sites that elevate this art to a whole new level.

E-mail and WWW Projects: collaboration on the electronic express <http://www.otan.us/webfarm/emailproject/tesol2002/projects2002.html>
Student Web Projects ("Shopping for Necessities near Saint Michael's College," "Area Restaurants Recommended by Saint Michael's College Students," and "The Most Interesting Shops in Downtown Burlington") created by Christine Bauer-Ramazani's Intensive English Program students in summer 2000 and February 2003. See them in their original form and published by Topics--An Online Magazine for Learners of English (http://www.topics-mag.com/ ) and read my discussions of these projects: "Integrated Skills CALL Unit: Student Web Projects" in Topics Online Magazine's Teacher's Corner and on the students' web site. The students used ALL of their skills to construct the information--speaking with NSs for the surveys and interviews they did, writing in different genres/formats--note-taking, email, description, letter, etc., lots of reading and proof-reading, and of course lots of listening to each other and to the NSs they interviewed!

Using Online Discussions for Writing
Web-based discussion groups
Subscribe yourself to the following free web-based "course management tools" and try them out. All of these offer discussion or message boards. Several incorporate features that allow you to teach a whole class online, providing file-sharing, links-sharing, a calendar, voice chat, and more. There are more free providers, but I've had the best experience with the ones below, in this order.
Yahoo!Groups at http://groups.yahoo.com/ (free, unlimited)
Nicenet at http://www.nicenet.org/ (free, unlimited)
Yahoo!Groups has the big advantage that it gives the user the option to have postings sent out as email messages also. In other words, students don't have to log in each time to read new postings and react to them. They can do it right from their email manager. To hold a threaded discussion, follow the same instructions as in 1. above.
Englishforum <http://www.englishforum.com>
-- Comprehensive web portal with a wealth of resources for students and teachers
of English (ESL/EFL). Interactive Exercises, Message Boards, ELT Book Catalogue,

This pano taken about 45 minutes before Pano 2. It's got a number of interesting 'ghosted' people I always find amusing, plus I cropped this one.
Lewis & Clark State Recreation Site, Off I-84, 16 miles East of Portland.
Located at the western gateway of the Columbia River Gorge, Lewis & Clark State Park appropriately honors its legendary namesakes who camped and explored here in November, 1805. The park is situated near the mouth of the Sandy River where it spills into the mighty Columbia River and at one of the entrances to the Historic Columbia River Highway. A flat, grassy, tree-dotted park invites blankets and sun-lovers to come spend a leisurely day.
One of the most popular swimming spots on the Sandy River is adjacent to the park, as well as a public boat launch. A trail climbs the cliffs to Broughton's Bluff, which serves as a geologic boundary between the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range and the neighboring Willamette Valley to the west.

Fresh links for June 20th through July 11th
- Cities and Citizenship: Anti-Graffiti, Part 1: Aesthetics – An interesting take on the aesthetics of the anti-graffiti movement, and how it often co-opts graffiti to its own ends. Lots of interesting example pics from Sydney.
- Revising The Revisionists – Excellent article about the 1898 armed coup and massacre of black residents of Wilmington, North Carolina. Reminds me of the book "Lies My Teacher Told Me", and of course Australia's own "history wars".
- The Strongest Woman In America Lives In Poverty – This top weightlifter, on her way to the Olympics, can't afford to eat. She needs 3000-4000 calories a day while she's training, and relies on food banks. No sponsorships because of sizeism — they don't think she's hot enough, or something. She has an indiegogo fundraiser here if you want to help her out: http://www.indiegogo.com/loveforanolympian
- Adaptation by Remix: Vidding Feminist Science Fiction – My friend Alexis writes about Chaila's Wiscon premiere vid, taking visual sources and creating a video for Octavia Butler's "Parable of the Sower" and "Parable of the Talents" that draws from the genres of book trailer, fanvid, and political remix.


text: System 4400 THX Select Subwoofer/Satellite Speaker System "This package is a stellar performer!" — Mark Fleischmann, Home Theater, Dec 2009 Uncompromised THX-certified performance at a surprisingly reasonable costLike the System 4200e, our System 4400 represents the culmination of our efforts to develop the world's finest moderately-priced home theater speaker system. Compact, elegant, but extremely powerful, the 4400 features high-performance drivers and acoustic optimization controls, for perfect integration in a typical living room or den. There is always one product in the lineup that seems to defy the price/performance relationship. People have told us that this one is it. To take this incredible system one step higher, we are introducing the 44-DA Dolby Atmos-enabled Speaker Module. The 44-DA speaker module is designed to fit perfectly on top top of the 4400eLR speaker creating an integrated "one-piece" look. This is available in mid December.

Each 4400 LR contains two proprietary GLH (Graphite Loaded Homopolymer) 5.25" (135mm) midrange woofers, and an audiophile reference 1" (25mm) ferrofluid-cooled, damped silk dome tweeter, with a powerful neodymium magnet structure. The 4400 LR is available in High Gloss Black or Satin Black. The 4400 features a flush rear terminal cup and dual keyholes, for wall-mounting capability. The midrange and tweeter elements are configured in a midrange-tweeter-midrange array, providing wide left to right sound coverage while limiting the harmful effects of floor and ceiling reflections that color the sound and degrade vocal intelligibility. To further highlight the attention to detail that went into this system, Atlantic mounted the speaker components in an acoustically inert, heavily braced MDF enclosure, applying extensive magnetic shielding to improve mounting flexibility close to a video display without concern for picture distortion. The 4400 LR's and C include unique acoustic controls that allow the system to be calibrated or tuned, maximizing their performance in the real world environment they are going to be used in. These controls include a special high frequency contour switch which compensates for overly damped (heavily carpeted or upholstered) rooms, or especially bright rooms. And a boundary compensation switch eliminates the negative effects of mounting a box speaker inside a cabinet, as is so popular these days. Engineered to the highest standards, these audiophile grade equalization circuits are a part of the crossover, meaning they will not degrade the sound of the speaker, but in fact will offer a significant improvement. 4400 C — Center Channel Speaker For accurate reproduction of a multi-channel soundtrack, the three front-channel speakers must have the same sonic signature, which is why Atlantic engineers designed the 4400 C center channel speaker with the exact same driver complement as the matching 4400 LR speakers. They are both designed for use with a dedicated subwoofer, and the 4400 C includes the same unique acoustic controls as the 4400 LR. Other than the 4400 C being designed to work horizontally, it is functionally identical to the 4400 LR. The 4400 C is also magnetically shielded and can be placed directly adjacent to your CRT tube-based TV set with no adverse effects on the television's picture. Additionally, the 4400 C can be tilted on its dedicated base to provide optimum sonic coverage over the listening area. The 4400 C is available in High Gloss Black or Satin Black. 4400 SR — Surround Speakers The Model 4400 SR Dipole/Bipole Surround Speakers are purpose built for use in multi-channel audio/video sound systems as dedicated side or back surround channel speakers. The 4400 SR enclosure has two 4.5" (115mm) GLH woofers and two identical high performance silk dome tweeters as found in the 4400 LR front speakers. To further showcase the 4400 SR's flexibility, the 4400 SR can be easily switched between Dipole and Bipole operation. Due to the switchable Dipole/Bipole design, it's possible to place the 4400 SR almost anywhere within the rear third of the room and achieve good results. However, the best location for surround speakers is generally straight out to the sides, or slightly behind the primary listening area, approximately 1-2 feet above seated ear level, but no closer than 2 feet from the ceiling. As noted above, the surround speakers (as opposed to the back speaker(s) in a 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 channel system, are primarily intended to re-create the ambient sounds taking place in the movie scene. Therefore, throughout most of a movie or TV program you may not be consciously aware of output from these speakers. In other words, don't worry if you aren't hearing the surround speakers. The 4400 SR's come specially marked LEFT and RIGHT, so be sure the Left side surround speaker is placed directly to the left of the prime listening area (facing the screen) and the Right speaker is directly to the right side. For smooth cosmetic integration, the 4400 SR is available in Black, and features integral key hole mounting. 642e SB — Subwoofer The Atlantic Technology 642e SB THX Select powered subwoofer is a significant upgrade from its highly acclaimed predecessor. Compared to the original 642, we have developed a totally new driver with three times the motor size, a stiffer spider, and a heavier cone. It's a real "monster" of a driver. While the driver's free-air resonance remains at 25 Hz, the output of the sub from 35 Hz to 60 Hz-right in the impact range- has been improved by almost 3dB. Additionally, the 642e's amplifier has been tweaked for greater power delivery, resulting in greater undistorted peak output capability. 44-DA Dolby Atmos-enabled Speaker Working closely with Dolby Laboratories, Atlantic's research and engineering team developed the 44-DA with its unique vertically-firing Concentric Driver Array (CDA™) to deliver the excitement and realism of Dolby Atmos-encoded soundtracks with startling impact and holographic, three dimensional realism. The 44-DA's frequency response and radiation pattern have been specifically engineered to meet these requirements. The 44-DA speaker itself embodies the same high quality components—such as its long-excursion damped polypropylene 5 ¼" woofer, 1" silk-damped dome tweeter and optimized 1st-order Butterworth crossover—and meticulous attention to detail that are the hallmarks of all Atlantic Technology products. The speaker modules fit perfectly on top of Atlantic's THX-certified 4400LR speakers creating an integrated, "one-piece" look. However, because of their compact design and neutral appearance, the 44-DA's are also ideally suited to being used on top of other speakers or, equally important, as "stand-alone" elevation speakers in a complete Dolby Atmos system.

Traffic Analysis Tools
New Guidelines Material
Guide for Highway Capacity and Operations Analysis of Active Transportation and Demand Management Strategies
FHWA Leaflet on Work Zone Analysis
Brief, easy-to-read overview of Work Zone Analysis and how modeling and simulation can be used as part of the analysis. Includes three short examples.
The Traffic Analysis Tools Program was formulated by FHWA in an attempt to strike a balance between efforts to develop new, improved tools in support of traffic operations analysis and efforts to facilitate the deployment and use of existing tools. FHWA has established two tracks under the Traffic Analysis Tools Program: the deployment track and the development track.
Deployment Track
This track concentrates on the needs and concerns of the traffic analysis stakeholder community:
Development Track
Focuses on enhancing and developing models that are easier to use, more robust in their application, and more reliable in their results. Read more about the Models.
Through the FHWA Traffic Analysis Tools Program, our partners and customers will expand their use of analysis tools and innovative analysis approaches that consider a system-level approach and will enhance mobility. They will gain insight on recommended/best practices and lessons learned in operational analysis. They will gain a high level of confidence in utilizing the analysis tools for their local needs. The proactive role from FHWA, will enable analytical tools and decision-support systems to reach their full potential to support a viable transportation community in a manner sufficient to make a significant contribution to evolving traffic congestion and management problems.

Well if it gets any more expensive or goes even a pound down in weight per bag (and stays same price), I probably will go back to Diamond Lamb and Rice-- it was doing fine with my BLF, just thought I would try the Purina to see if there is any difference.

Green as Gold
Dear Alibi,
To all who are concerned with our burgeoning environmental problems and the direction our city is heading, now is the time to speak up.
Recently, the Environmental Planning Commission gave into supposed neighborhood association "leaders" and shot down a proposed residential Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) project that would have transformed a parking lot in the Silver Hill neighborhood, directly south of UNM, into a green residential building. (About 35 neighbors opposed the project from a neighborhood population of more than 1,750 residents.)
The fact is that we are on the verge of a huge environmental crisis, and this project takes a giant step forward in addressing some of these problems. The 2000 Gold Project is a well-thought-out, responsible infill project that combats Albuquerque's endless sprawl.
One objection of some of the Silver Hill neighbors is that since the site abuts a historic district, the proposed project will destroy the character of the area. As the site is now a parking lot, no historic homes will be torn down. Quite the contrary—this project will enhance the neighborhood by integrating the old with the new, revitalizing an area that could really use it.
This proposed building is only four floors! In a neighborhood of one, two and three floors, four isn't out of scale or too big ... it's perfect for the area.
Please contact Rick Goldman of Sheffield Partners (firstname.lastname@example.com) for more information, and contact the city councilors (www.cabq.gov/

Dear Alibi,
As the "Cruelest Month" closes, the "nationalized" press corp is ordered to manufacture a tarmac dispute between Obama and Clinton as to who is the father of French impressionism, Manet or Monet, while McCain stands, wobbly-kneed, watching Nascar and eating ribs.
Meanwhile, Rev. Wright (Iago without a soliloquy) munches on the bones of the next generation. Over at Castle Clinton, Bill slips out to the heath for a dalliance with the Three Witches. Returning home, he offers Hillary a drink. Will it be a potent potion or a poisoned chalice? Only time will tell who shall slay the tyrant Macbeth.

Who's the Hypocrite?
Dear Alibi,
I am writing in response to Jim Scarantino's pitiful right-wing attack on the citizens of the Galisteo Basin [Re: The Real Side, "The City Hypocritical," April 24-30]. In this desperate move to justify oil exploration within a watershed that serves more than 15,000 people, Scarantino calls us hypocrites and talks about us as "many of the anti-oil activists live around the Galisteo Basin." I have to first pose the question: How many people have you actually spoken with and how many homes did you visit? Personally, not unlike many in my neighborhood of the foothills of the Ortiz Mountains, I designed and built my own solar-heated home. I hand-built the 10,000 gallons of catchment systems in my yard. I buy my electricity from PNM's wind energy program and pay a higher rate for it. Many people out here work at home, as I and my wife do, so we do not commute.
I have to wonder, as Tecton has its eyes on the Albuquerque area of the Rio Grande, will Scarantino invite them to place an exploration rig in his backyard? What if we put his water at risk? He believes it is risk-free and yet there is not one frack drilling operation to date with a clean record anywhere in the world, only Tecton's claim that "now it is safe." Furthermore, the most oil that (may) be here, according to Tecton, is a two- to four-day supply for the U.S., which would be extracted over a 25- to 40-year operation! That is about one-tenth of a day for the U.S. each year. In his mind, that is worth risking our lives, our health, the watershed, the environment, and the impact of noise and other pollution on Santa Fe County and property values.
In short time, the Alibi and Scarantino will have to answer to the many advertisers and readers who are themselves trying to move to a "greener" market, a "greener" lifestyle. Should the Alibi continue with such writing, such archaic thinking, it—like oil and gas—will have to submit to becoming a dinosaur of sorts. As a citizen of the Galisteo Basin, I implore the Alibi to support writers and ideas that can move us forward into a bright future and away from this dark-mindedness.

How intereested would everyone be in seeing a line of Blasters added to the MR FX line? Just wondering.
How intereested would everyone be in seeing a line of Blasters added to the MR FX line? Just wondering.
It would be nice if only to have an affordable line of blasters made from lesser-quality materials as well (although my Vader FX hilt is just as nice as the LE). However, I don't think they'll be as popular as the FX lightsabers. First of all, one of the most impressive qualities of the FX sabers is how realistic the blade looks when ignited. The blasters don't have any impressive light show like that. The best they could do is have a bright glow at the end of the barrel/muzzle/etc.Originally Posted by knightone
I just don't think they'd have the same mass-market appeal.
"The boy you trained, gone he is...consumed by Darth Vader." - Yoda, Revenge of the Sith
Yodasnews Review Archive: http://www.kid4life.com/yoda2/figurereviews06.htm
Just out of curiosity, just how would they even pull off making an FX Blaster? Think they should have a light pole sticking out the edge of a Stormtrooper Blaster?
Hasbro has made several toy blasters that light up and even make sound!
"Maybe I can help you. I am Boba Fett. The ship you seek is nearby." -Boba Fett
Yeah I was gonna say, doesn't hasbro already make these? Unless you want to spend like $120 for a metal gun that has sound effects I suggest just going for the toy version and save the money. Just my opinion.Originally Posted by Jayspawn
"I have you now."
I would be interested if they could get them in the $50 to $75 mark. By the way has anyone else heard anything more about their costumes
MR could do a lot of things with the blasters that would make it much cooler than the Hasbro toys. A 3w or 5w LED at the muzzle could make an ultra bright muzzle flash. The scopes could also be illuminated by an LED to give the reticles a super cool look. The magazines could be removeable, the cocking handles (if any) could move, etc. There are a lot of things that can be done with it to make it a very cool item if you use your imaginations.
I'm not sold on the idea. That basically describes a Hasbro blaster which is more feasable and affordable. If you want -you can actually upgrade a Hasbro blaster yourself to make it look more authentic. Its still light weight and lights up too.
"Maybe I can help you. I am Boba Fett. The ship you seek is nearby." -Boba Fett
The same can be said with lightsabers though. The FX sabers are better scaled, made of metal/better materials, and has improved effects. However, it is still just a suped up toy. A Hasbro saber lights up, hums, has crash sensor operated sounds, etc. So why buy an FX saber when you can buy a Hasbro saber for much, much cheaper? You're just going to end up swinging the FX around like a Hasbro saber anyway. Why? Because you want a better quality toy with cooler features. It just looks cooler and that's it. That's all that separates the MR FX sabers from the Hasbro line, but we prefer them because they look better when we are swinging them around and playing with them.Originally Posted by Jayspawn
Look at what they did with the sabers. They made them cool and extremely good looking. Just think what MR can do with a blaster that would make it head and shoulders above the Hasbro units.
So basically knightone, you want a metal blaster that lights up at the end right?
"Maybe I can help you. I am Boba Fett. The ship you seek is nearby." -Boba Fett
I still don't understand the logic on this. A metal, movie accurate, blaster that has sound effects? I just don't understand the point of it when there is already a product out for that that is more affordable. Sure it's not metal, or maybe not exactly movie accurate to a T, but has everything you want.
"I have you now."

The IDF population strategy requires the governments of all countries to develop and implement a National Diabetes Prevention Plan. This National plan would encompass many groups including schools; communities (for example, religious and ethnic groups); industry (marketing, investment policy, product development) and the workplace (health promotion within the working environment).
Finnish Diabetes Prevention Strategy
Finland is one of the first countries to implement a large-scale diabetes prevention strategy. Following on from the DPS study, the Finnish Diabetes Association have devised a national strategy for preventing type 2 diabetes: The Development Programme for the Prevention and Care of Diabetes in Finland 2000-2010 (DEHKO). This programme comprises three concurrent approaches: a population strategy aimed at promoting the health of the entire nation; an individualised strategy for those at high risk; and a strategy of early diagnosis and management for those with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. The population strategy focuses on nutritional interventions and increased physical activity so that the risk factors for type 2 diabetes are reduced in all age groups. A pilot study assessing practical feasibility and cost-effectiveness is currently under way in four hospital districts (2003-2007), and results from this pilot will direct the focus of the national scheme. In 2010, the population-level effects of the programme will be studied in terms of coverage, effectiveness, rate of adoption, feasibility and permanence.

Mirko Cro Cop Returning To Kickboxing, Says K-1 in March
- Written by Rian Scalia
Many fans today know Mirko Cro Cop from his storied MMA career, where he was one of the best strikers in the sport for a long time. Mirko has declined since winning the Pride Open Weight Grand Prix in 2006, and a number of reasons could be cited as to why. He is now out of the UFC for the second time, after dropping three in a row, getting stopped with strikes in all three.
In a recent video interview, Mirko said that he is returning to kickboxing, specifically saying that he'd be fighting on March 10 in Zagreb, Croatia. No opponent is set yet, but a name that's been floating around is Dzevad Poturak. It's tough to imagine Mirko winning in kickboxing after getting knocked out three times in a row in MMA, but he said, "It's much easier to prepare for a K-1 bout...You don't have much grappling and fighting on the mat. It's much easier."
Cro Cop also details the injury to his right arm and how he is rushing back against his doctor's advice. He said that he is essentially right now with one arm and two legs. I don't think it's a good idea for Cro Cop to be rushing back from an injury, especially at this stage in his career. Nevertheless, everytime we think Cro Cop is done, he comes back and fights again, whether he should or shouldn't.
What's also significant about this is that Cro Cop says he will be fighting for K-1. With K-1's FIKA format supposedly staging national tournaments until April, this fits the mold as it's in Croatia. I still wouldn't get 100% behind this as official though. Cro Cop is also talking of K-1 as a sport, and that's common in Europe so he could just be fighting in a kickboxing show using K-1 rules. We don't know yet and we'll just have to wait until K-1/FIKA make their announcement soon.

Meet the one and only beautiful Chica! This sweet girl is an affectionate laid back cat who is eager to find her forever home. Spend time this Chica for a few minutes and you will fall in love. Could Chica be the one for you? Visit her at the adoption center or call 859-873-5491 to learn more.
The Woodford Humane Society is a non-profit animal organization in Versailles, Kentucky. We have welcomed thousands of animals every year since 1975 and strive to find good, loving homes for all of them. A careful screening process helps us match the right animals to the right adoptive homes.
We have welcomed thousands of animals every year since 1975 and strive to find good, loving homes for all of them. A careful screening process helps us match the right animals to the right adoptive homes.
With no government funding, we are completely dependent on private contributions to continue to provide care to over one thousand animals each year. Our annual placement rate averages about 90%! The national average is around 25%. Our mission is to promote the well-being of animals through S.A.V.E: Spay/Neuter, Adopt, Volunteer and Educate.
In 2002, we joined a nationwide campaign called No More Homeless Pets. The mission of this effort is "to help bring about a time when every cat and dog that's ever born can be guaranteed a good life with a loving family." At the Woodford Humane Society, we are striving to accomplish this mission through four areas, nicknamed SAVE: Spay/Neuter, Adopt, Volunteer, and Educate.
At any given time, we are home to approximately 200-300 animals available for adoption. Adoption counselors are on staff to assist with the selection of a new pet. We maintain a "wish book" for people seeking a particular breed and let them know when a match has been made.
Adoption fees include spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations and deworming while at our Adoption Center, feline leukemia, FIV, and heartworm screening for cats, heartworm screening for dogs, a microchip with a lifetime registration, a free veterinary checkup and pet training DVD.
We provide counseling and offer advice for topics such as obedience training, housebreaking, helping your pet adapt to a new home and other behavioral issues.
Adoptable animals are held for as long as health, behavior and space permit. We have no standard set time for adoptable animals to find a new home, in fact some have stayed in our care for years as they await their new home.
If you wish to surrender a pet to the Woodford Humane Society, you must have an appointment. This ensures that we have available space and reduces stress for both pet and owner. Please call us at 859.873.5491 to find out more.
All animals received must pass an evaluation based on their health, known history and temperament before being placed for adoption.
Monday-Friday: 12:00-6:00pm
Saturday & Sunday: 12:00-5:00pm

|Asthma Inflammation Research
|Principal investigator
|Serpil Erzurum, MD
|More than 20 million Americans suffer from asthma, and nearly half of asthma sufferers do not have their asthma under control. Although commonly diagnosed using physiological measures of airflow and bronchial hyperreactivity, asthma pathophysiology is related to chronic inflammation of the airway. Current diagnostic evaluation and monitoring are inadequate for proposed practice guidelines. The most commonly used test for evaluation of asthma is the measurement of airflow obstruction by spirometry. The National Asthma Education Prevention Program (NAEPP) and Expert Panel Reports set forth grading of asthma severity based on the frequency of symptoms, airflow, and the need for inhaled beta-agonists. Practice guidelines outline that the goals of therapy for asthma are to: maintain normal activity with near normal parameters of lung function, prevent exacerbations that lead to tissue injury, and avoid medication toxicity. In order to facilitate these goals, NAEPP defines key components for management including disease monitoring and stepped care pharmacotherapy. Unfortunately, there is no optimal plan for monitoring inflammation, which causes us to fail in key components in management of asthma. Limited options for anti-inflammatory treatments to control asthma likewise often lead to substantial morbidities due to treatment with high doses of corticosteroids. Our AIR program plans to develop novel asthma monitoring tests and design targeted therapeutics, which altogether may reduce toxicities and improve the long-term health of patients. Impact on broad scientific advancement. Our cumulative studies provide fundamental information on the molecular mechanisms that contribute to unresolving and excessive inflammation that leads to tissue remodeling. This mechanistic knowledge is of broad scientific importance as nearly all chronic human diseases are defined by prolonged and active inflammation, with tissue destruction, and failed attempts at healing. Thus, our investigations will provide comprehensive knowledge and consequent translational deliverables that may be widely applicable as diagnostic strategies and therapies in other chronic inflammatory diseases.

Chapter 9: Surface Processes and Landforms
Why don't these mountains look the same?
The same plate tectonics processes caused both sets of mountains to rise. In both cases, two continental plates smashed together at a convergent plate boundary. The Himalaya Mountains on the left are still uplifting. The landscape is steep and rugged. The photo on the right shows the Appalachian Mountains. These mountains were once steep like the Himalaya. If the only processes on Earth were plate tectonics processes, the Appalachians might still look like the Himalaya. But the Appalachian Mountains are low and rounded. Over time the Appalachians have undergone weathering and erosion. This chapter is about the processes that modify the landscape. These processes alter landforms. Some of these processes create new landforms.

Chapter Summary
The weathering of rocks and minerals can be mechanical or chemical. Mechanical weathering changes the size of a mineral or rock. Mechanical weathering does not change the chemical composition of that material. Chemical weathering changes the composition of a mineral or rock. Different types of weathering can alter the same material. Soil forms on top of rock. The type of soil that forms depends on the environment of the region. For example, warm and wet climates form different soils than cold and dry climates. A profile through the soil shows different horizons. Topsoil is the most important layer for crops. Water, ice, wind, and gravity create or modify landforms on Earth's surface. These agents can erode or deposit features that indicate their presence. Erosion by water and ice lowered and rounded the Appalachians. These old mountains no longer look like the Himalaya. Someday the Himalaya may look like the Appalachians do now.

Picked up a Cade/Talon pack at Burbank Target (with saber!), and Mighty Muggs Galactus. Holy crap that thing's adorably apocalyptic! "I'm gonna eat your planet! After I have a cookie!"
Cade & Talon both look a little goofy (Talon's looking to the left, Cade's got big ol' Thunderbirds eyes) but are fun figures. They made him pretty short, too, compared to the IKs. Hopefully, if they ever get to a Kol, they do right & make HIM tall, at least.
If anyone ordered an extra nightmare Batman from TRU let me know. I was in a meeting at work and it sold out before I got out. :*(
HA! I knew this was too good to be true. TRU just sent me this:
"....Thank you again for your recent purchase at Toysrus.com & Babiesrus.com.
We have received your order 954049XXX-000, and wanted to let you know that there has been an

This isn't toy related but I know you all like free stuff. In 2009, Disneyland will hold a promotion where you'll be able to get in for free on your birthday. You do have to go over to their official site before hand to register.
If you happen to be an Annual Pass holder (I am and I think I remember JT mentioning it before as well), obviously you don't need free admission but if you register, you can have your choice of 1) a bunch of extra fastpasses or 2) a gift card equivalent to the price of 1 day's admission valid only on your birthdate. In other words, free toys and other stuff!
might have to check that out. Never been to disneyland, just CA adventure. & i haven't ridden star tours. That is the draw for me.
hah! finally figured out cataclizm's avatar - seen it hundreds of times & never looked close. Cool.
when is wally & tru gonna start to get tlc wave 3 & comic packs dangit?!?!?!?!?
Stashed a Darth Talon/Cade w/lightsaber Comic Pack at Burbank Target. If anyone needs it, shoot me a PM.

I was just messing with you man- no problem.

Before we visit with today's author, I want to announce that the winner of the signed copy of Shellie Neumeier's new release, Driven, is:
lisset.delgado@ . . .
Congratulations! I'll contact you today for your snail mail address, and we'll get your book to you right away. I encourage readers to keep commenting and/or subscribe at right (below my list of books) in order to participate in future book give-aways!
Now let's meet novelist Jillian Kent, author of Secrets of the Heart, The Ravensmoore Chronicles, Book One (Charisma House, previously Strang Communications, May 2011).
Jillian Kent delivers a powerful romance wrapped around a fascinating mystery/suspense plot brewed to perfection. Readers will be intrigued with a story that explores the Regency from a perspective not typically portrayed. Jillian lived in England in 1976 when she spent a semester in Oxford with other students from her college and their English professor. That experience ignited her imagination and her love for England and its history.
Jillian is an advocate for persons suffering from mental illness and wants readers to come to know those who are mentally ill through her books. The history of mental health and mental illness is both sad and fascinating. The men and women who tried to help the afflicted through history are as interesting as those who were ill. Jillian hopes that by bringing that which was in darkness into the light of understanding will help eliminate the stigma against those who are suffer from mental illness today.
Please tell us five random things we might not know about you.
-- I was born in Coral Gables, Florida.
-- Fell in love with Alfred Noyes poem, "The Highwayman," when I was about ten.
-- Love country music and Brad Paisley.
-- Rode horses in dressage, cross-country, and stadium jumping events in 4-H and Pony Club.
-- Love the card game PITT!
Hmm! Sounds like a country/cowboy/horse novel might emerge from your interests one of these days . . .
Please tell us a bit more about the plot of Secrets of the Heart.
Madeline Whittington, daughter of the deceased Earl of Richfield, emerges from English society's prescribed period of mourning in the winter of 1817. Madeline believes that she no longer belongs in a world of gossip and gowns after experiencing multiple losses. When she rescues a runaway from Ashcroft Insane Asylum, her life will be forever changed as she discovers the dark secrets within the asylum walls.
Because of his elder brothers unexpected death, Devlin Grayson becomes Earl of Ravensmoore and struggles between two worlds: one of affluence and privilege and one of poverty and disease. Torn between his desire to become a doctor and the numerous responsibilities of his title, he wrestles with God's calling for his future. Will he be able to honor this God-given gift and win the woman he falls in love with in a society that does not value gentlemen who work? And will Lady Madeline be able to honor her father s memory when she is attracted to the man she holds responsible for her father s death?
What is it about your lead character that will make your readers care about him?
I'm going to chose the male lead to comment on here: He's a man of integrity who is pulled between doing what he thinks he is called by God to do and what English society says he must do. He harbors secrets and heartache and he wants to make a difference, but he also wants the woman he's fallen in love with and fears that she will not accept him if she knew everything about him.
Why will readers enjoy your novel?
It's a love story. Who can resist? I think the suspense element will keep their attention and the story is entertaining.
Give us one sentence that shows us something about your main character as a child.
This is a line I cut from my original manuscript that depicts Madeline as a young teen.
"I will never understand how Mozart or anyone else for that matter ever produced a pleasing sound from this wretched instrument."
As an instrument-challenged gal, I completely identify with poor young Madeline.
What is the last book you read that you would recommend?
Julie Lessman's, A Passion Denied. Why? Because it's well written and covers a lot of emotion, passion, and true to life fears about the past. It's a powerful love story.
What are you working on now?
I'm working on revisions from my editor for book two in the series called Chameleon, brewing my plot for book three in my head that I need to start writing and marketing Secrets of the Heart.
Where else can readers find you online?
My website is www.jilliankent.com
My blog is jilliankent.blogspot.com
And I also blog a couple times a month with the rest of the Realms gang over at justthewritecharisma.blogspot.com
Finally, what question would you like to ask my readers?
When you read a book, do you imagine the characters as described by the author, or do you fit them into the persona or mold of a famous actor or actress that you like?
Thank you, Jillian, for visiting with us and telling us about your novel. Readers, Jillian has offered to give a signed copy of her book to the winner of our drawing on Monday, May 23. To enter, leave a comment below in answer to Jillian's question, above. "Please enter me" won't get you entered. Leave your email address, in case you win, like so: trish[at]trishperry[dot]com.

Dear Hasbro,
Please make that green "T head" alien from the cantina. I've been pouring through the Chronicles lately, and seeing the mask for this character I can't stress enough how badly I want him.
When Hem pops his head up at the cue of the Modal Nodes' music, well that shot epitomized the cantina scene for me ever since I was a child. I did like Hammerhead and the others from the vintage line, but I never understood why they didn't do Hem Dazon because as I said he was just so noticeable to me.
You've made several cool cantina patrons, Hem is due! I am certain there have been other requests for him in the past, and I just want to raise the issue again.
As for the details, I have no suggestions right now . . . I'll let my peers chime in with any suggestions
Make him, please?

They have had no problems showing us pictures of people in lawn chairs. There is no excuse for not updating the Call backs. If they can't access the original call back file, they can create a new one. There are no excuses for this type of coverage.
There is a possibility you could be mixing the sites. RetrieverNews is taking most of the pictures and providing descriptions of the tests etc. Master National is in charge of callbacks. The link on RN for callbacks is connected to MN site callbacks. Thanks RetrieverNews for the excellent coverage.
I'm somewhat frustrated too, but like I said before, too many dogs, too few volunteers. I could be wrong but I don't think MN understands the interest in this event outside the event itself.
Just my observations from being there and now being home watching.
Tom Dorroh
Boston, GA
1. Call one of your Friends that is at the Master National.
2. When the Gal comes out to do callbacks, she will be reading from a sheet of paper.
3. Have your friend take that handy dandy cell phone out of their pocket and snap a pic of that piece of paper.
4. Ask them to email you the picture
5. You spend the next 10 minutes of your time creating a post of the Callbacks for that flight and post it on RTF.
6. Then, Quit whining.... Your dog is probably out anyway so it doesn't really matter (just kidding!!)
I have to agree with Joby. The people updating the online site don't need to be at the test. All they need is a picture of the call back sheet and a system to allow them to update the website.
For next year, would be nice if the callback list included breed, sex, and birthdate.

Wasn't it the same thing last year and the year before? Why do you think it would change? It's just part of the MN. They take care of the test and posting the callbacks is on the back burner. I'm afraid once they get behind two series, it will be impossible to figure out.
Today at 930am some updates were done.

No, I don't think it was this slow last year. I believe it was updated each night!
