One year ago today....(long read)
One year ago today I got my Camaro. After 9562 miles I still get that perma-grin every time I get behind the wheel! I figured since the one year mark is here I'd make a thread like the other guy did (I forget his name, sorry) a few days ago to answer fbodfather's question about defining moments in your Camaro history. Of course my Camaro history isn't as long as some of your's, since I'm only 18 but it is still interesting, at least to me So here it goes..
Sometime in 2002: I don't remember a whole lot about it since I was only 10 at the time but I can still remember being shocked that they killed the Camaro. I've always been a Chevy fan as long as I can remember and the Camaro and Corvette have always been my favorite cars. I just remember thinking how stupid it seemed that Chevy was going to stop making the Camaro.
Sometime in 2006: I remember seeing something about the Camaro Concept on TV and thinking "Wow that's cool, but I doubt they'll ever make it."
September 2008: Two things for this one..I got my first car, a 2006 Impala LT with 63,000 miles on it. I did test drive a 1984 Camaro Berlinetta with a 305 in it but my dad said no, I couldn't get it because it was too sporty. Funny thing is the Camaro had something like 190 hp but the Impala he said I should get had 242 hp. Also the Impala was almost $8k more. But I got the Impala and I loved that car. It was a Chevy and it was pretty fast too. Also that month I found Camaro5. I can remember one day I was done with all of my work in computer class so I figured I'd Google something. I remembered hearing something about them bringing the Camaro back so I typed in "2009 Camaro" and well that's when the obsession started. I clicked on one of sites (can't remember if it was 5thgen.org or Camaro5) and I saw a thread with pics of a Victory Red RS. After seeing those pics, I knew that one day I was going to have a 2010 Camaro.
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showpo...21&postcount=7 those are the same pics, just in the Victory Red thread.
January 2009: I saw on Camaro5 that Scott Settlemire (fbodfather) was having a special event at the Philly auto show for Camaro enthusiasts. I signed my dad and I up to go. This was the first time I saw a new Camaro in person. It turn out the first Camaro I ever sat in was a Victory Red RS (see a trend starting lol) it was 2LT with sunroof and a manual. I must say that, that was awesome to finally be sitting the car that I had been drooling over for the past few months. Once again, I knew one day I was going to have a 2010 Camaro. Also in January 2009 I got my driver's license.
Some quick background info: At this time I was working part time after school at a local gas station. I was making $8.50 an hour and getting around 30-35 hours a week, which wasn't too bad I thought. I was making just enough to make double or sometimes triple payments on the Impala (my payments were $188 a month) I never though at that time I could afford a new Camaro, but I figured once I paid off the Impala I could then trade it on a Camaro. I loved the new Camaros so much and I really wanted to get a new 2010, just so I could say 30 years from now that I am the original owner of 2010 Camaro. At the time though I didn't think it would be possible.
February 2009: One night while I was at work somebody keyed the Impala. I had it out in the back of the lot where I always parked it. There were 6 long scratches on the hood. I asked my boss to look at the tape from that night but the cameras can't see that part of the lot. I still don't know who did it, but I was really pissed.
May 2009: New Camaros start showing up at local dealers. The first one I saw was, you guessed it, a Victory Red 1LT/RS. It was exactly like the one I ended up getting. This one was at a dealer near my aunt's house (can't remember the name any more) they wanted $31k for it but sticker was only $28k. I started driving around to Chevy dealers and checking out the Camaros they had. Around this time I started to wonder if I really could afford a new Camaro. I did the math and realized I was spending between $500-$600 a month making the extra payments on the Impala. I thought well if I'm spending that much on the Impala, I could get a Camaro as long as it's no more than about $28-29k. After that I got on the build a Camaro site and figured out exactly what I would want in my Camaro, that I could afford. I ended up deciding what I wanted was a Victory Red, no stripes, 1LT (I prefer cloth over leather) RS package (the lights really make the car) auto (I don't know how to drive stick, and I always have manual mode anyways) convenience and connectivity package (I had steering wheel radio controls in the Impala, and I thought they were nice). Total MSRP was $28,075.
June 18, 2009: I went to Champion Chevrolet in Hanover, PA to see if they had any Camaros, and there she was right on the front corner of the lot, a Victory Red RS. I pulled into the lot and started looking at the sticker. It was exactly like the car I was really thinking about ordering! I went in to talk to the salesman about her (they had a sign in her window that basically said nobody will bother you if you just wanna gawk lol) I asked him if they were selling at sticker, he said yes. I asked him if I could sit in her and he took me out and I sat in the driver's seat and checked everything out. He was going to let me test drive her but when he saw on my license that I was only 17 he said he couldn't. Apparently in PA you have to be 18 to test drive a car. I went home and talked to my dad about it and he agreed to let me get her.:happya nim:
June 19, 2009: We went back to Champion and test drove her. She had 30 miles before our drive (other people must have drover her) and 37 when we left to take her home. They gave me $7k for the Impala (it had 70k miles on it) and I only owed $6100 on it, after paying $12,000 for it less then a year before. We went and signed the papers. After we finished all the paper work we were walking out to the Camaro, which they moved to right in front of the showroom. I noticed they put a Champion sticker on the trunk lid. I made sure they got that off there (no stickers on my car ever!) After that I got in the driver's seat and the guy that shows you how to work everything got in the passenger's seat. First thing he did was show me how to use the radio. He turned it on and it was on a local FM station but as soon as he turned it on "Start Me Up" by the Rolling Stones came on! Talk about perfect timing! There I was sitting in my brand new Camaro for the first time when she's mine and "Start Me Up" is the first song I heard in the car! Right then I knew this car was staying with me forever! But he went on with showing me how to use everything even though I had to show him how to set the date And after all that we were off in my new Camaro. It was a Friday (payday) so the first place I went in her (after dropping dad off at home) was to work to get my check. I went in and my friend, Kelly, was working. As soon as I walked in the door she said "Dan, where the heck did you get a car like that? Is it your dad's?" I said nope it's mine. She said well that is one NICE car! She asked me all the questions about it and gave me my check. The one older lady at work, Gena, was also working too and she thought it was a Mustang. I had to work that night and some kids that I know from school came in. First thing they asked was "Whose Camaro is that?" (those have to be the 4 most repeated words that I ever hear at work ) I tell them that it's mine. Keep in mind that I live in a fairly small town. After about an hour or so people I know keep coming in and saying that so and so told them that I got a new Camaro. I couldn't believe all the attention my new baby was getting!
Summer through Fall 2009: Working, working, working, working, and more working! I didn't have a whole lot of time on my hands because I spent most of my time working. I was always looking for more and more hours so I could keep up with the payments. I averaged about 36-40 hours a week and I was able to make my payments and still save some money too. Any extra time I had, I was either driving or on Camaro5!
November 2009: I finally told Kelly (my friend and co-worker) that I like her. That had been going on for I don't even know how long but I finally got the balls to tell her. She was kinda surprised but she had some what expected it. A few days later she was scheduled to close the store down at 11 and I was supposed to leave at 10 but I decided I'd stay and hang out for a while. After she closed the store, we went out and sat in the Camaro and talked until around 12 when my dad called. First thing he said was "Where the HELL are you at???" well since my phone has bluetooth, it was blaring through my speakers lol. It was kinda funny but at the time I was thinking "Oh God what's gonna happen when I get home..." Kelly and I still joke about it.
December 2009: First snow for the Camaro. They are called "SUMMER" tires for a reason. But since I couldn't afford snow tires they had to do. One night after work I thought I was going to get stuck in about 1" of snow but luckily I made it home..barely. After that if it snowed I either took my dad's HHR or my grandma's Impala to work.
Beginning of May 2010: I met Kelly and her one friend at the mall (for the record we were never dating, but that's another looonnnngg story). After we got bored with the mall we went out and sat in the bed of her truck, she has a mid-90s Ranger (yeah I know). Her friend was on her phone pretty much the whole time so it was just me and Kelly talking. She said that I should let her drive the Camaro around the parking lot. I had offered many times before to let her drive the Camaro but she always said no. Of course I said OK and we went over to my car and I let her drive it around the lot. She had a huge grin on her face the whole time and kept asking me if she could floor it. I told no way, I guarantee it will scare the sh!t out of you. So after a while I told her I'd drive and then I'd floor it for her. We switched drivers and as promised I floored it. She literally screamed! I told her that's what would happen. She couldn't believe the power the car had. But I could tell that she loved the car and that she had a ton of fun driving it. She says she's a Ford girl but I dunno....
End of May 2010: I found out that there was a new Camaro5 group for Central PA Link: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/group.php?groupid=142 I entered a car show for the first time. There were 5 other new Camaros there and I had a great time. This was also when I started modding my car. The next day after the show I ordered my Injen CAI, Flowmaster Axleback, and Eibach 1" lowering springs. Had them put on and WOW! what a difference! I also painted my engine cover and added some RS emblems on the fenders and on the center console behind the shifter.
June 2010: I got to lead 5 or 6 other new Camaros down to the big show in Wilmington, Delaware a few weeks ago. Had my car signed by Scott Setlemire. Then on the 10th I graduated from high school. I also got my build sheets from a member here on Camaro5 (I can't remember her user name though). It turns out my car was built on my birthday, April 1st! And that brings us up to now, my 1 year anniversary with my Camaro VIN #2015!
Mods so far:
Injen Cold Air Intake
Flowmaster American Thunder Axleback
Eibach 1" Lowering Springs
RS emblems under "CAMARO" on the fenders and behind the shifter
Engine cover painted by me with "3.6 LLT" and "CAMARO" emblems added
Custom PA vanity plate (if you wanna call that a mod): "SIX BNGR"

Dude great story. I give you a lot of props for paying for the car with all of your money. I get a lot of things from some people because i got my car for free. Im 16 and my baby will be one on aug 17 2010. Shes number 36,498 and is a RY 2LT/RS. sounds like you have had alot of fun with your car just like i have. We will be making a group in my town and i will be so happy to be around people that have one thing in common. A burning passion for the camaro. Now how you lead the cars i know just that feeling. For the camaro5 feast the Canada group didnt know how to get to the track. Since i had talked to them the night before they asked if they could follow me to the track i said of course. I had my backed up into a line and little did i know i had around 5 camaros behind me. I thought that was a lot. Now i had the directions the hotel gave me and the ones my gps was giving me. The GPS tells me get on I-75 so i give it a little gas on the on ramp and they accelerate behind me. So once im on I-75 i look in my mirrors and the line got bigger. I had at least 15 camaros behind me. I was so happy. We get to the track with no problems and that was a relief cause i didnt want all of us getting lost. Well all i got to say is thanks for the great people in canada for building us this great machine that is more than just a car to me.
Here's some more pics. The first one was taken a few days after I got her. She only had about 300 miles at the time. The next one is of my custom white stripes. I didn't like them so I just brushed them off. The next two are from a few months ago when she was still stock. And the last one is of Scott Settlemire signing her.

Great story and congrats on being able to drive around in your dream car! It's great that you worked toward a goal and achieved it on your own as well. I'll have mine for a year on 8/8. She has 19,340 miles on her and I've enjoyed every mile I've put on.

Nice (long) story. Great to see the responsibility on your part (buying your own car instead of having one given to you).. You will go far, you already know you have to work for what you want..
Good for you - love the "stripes" too. Proud owner of 6+ months and still loving mine more and more every single day.
Be safe.. Welcome.
And I kinda like the stripes too. They actually have me thinking that some real white stripes might look good..but then I like the plain red look..ugh decisions..
Snow pic is da bomb

Work was halted on a second-floor remodeling project in the east wing of Boulder County's downtown Pearl Street courthouse complex on Wednesday after workers found suspected asbestos-containing insulation around a restroom's original pipes.
Jana Petersen, director of the county's Administrative Services Department, said on Thursday that no one had to be evacuated from the area, since the insulation materials were not disturbed and no asbestos was airborne.
Petersen said a crew is scheduled to remove the insulation materials this weekend. She said the original restroom, which is on a floor that houses the county's Information Technology Division, is being demolished and remodeled with a replacement that will meet Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility standards.
On Thursday, the Administrative Services Department emailed county employees who work in that Courthouse Complex's East Wing that until it is removed, "the suspect material is safe in its current state. We are leaving the material in place, undisturbed, until this weekend, when we are having an outside professional properly abate the material."
The department said in that email that "it is normal for us to encounter asbestos-containing materials during remodel projects of older buildings such as the East Wing. Asbestos, when left undisturbed, is not a health risk to employees and the general public, and when properly abated, will not pose future risk."

Back pain is an ailment common to performance horses. It can be one of the most insidious ailments varying from simple soreness (indicated by sensitivity to pressure), spinal and pelvic misalignments or a full-blown injury. It can be very difficult to diagnose, because as with people, back pain may not be the main source of the problem. Other symptom patterns can closely resemble the effects of back discomfort. Identifying and treating this problem may need a group effort from the trainer, veterinarian, the saddler and the farrier.
If you suspect that your horse has back problems it is important to check everything from how the saddle fits to sore feet as potential causes beyond your horse's spinal discomfort.
- SEARCH FOR SORENESS: Examine your horse's back by running your fingers along the muscles that parallel the spine. Be aware of the tone of the back muscles. Hard muscles are tense and probably sore, whereas the feel of healthy muscles is softer and less firm. Once you have completed the first part of the examination, increase your finger pressure, avoiding any sharp, sudden jabs which will cause the horse to flinch. Work along the muscles with finger pad pressure that gradually increases to a consistent moderate level. If your horse sidesteps or drops away, you may have hit a sore spot. Check the back's ability to flex and extend. Place your fingertips under his belly and push up firmly. If he does not raise his back, he may be sore.
- OBSERVE YOUR HORSE IN MOTION: With the help of a capable handler, get the horse to jog out as freely as possible on a longe line. A healthy back swings in rhythm with movement, where a sore back is stiff to guard against further pain. As the horse is trotting, look for gait irregularities that might originate in his limbs. Head bobbing at the jog can be characteristic of a horse who is trying to adjust to pain.
- SADDLE UP: Tack up your horse and either ride yourself or have a skilled person ride so you can see any differences in the way he travels under saddle compared to when he is on a longe line. Weight bearing may trigger or amplify painful vertebral, muscular or ligament conditions. If tack is poking, pinching or rubs, the horse will exhibit more pain while working under saddle. The observer can also note if the rider is stiff or imbalanced and if that might be causing signs of back pain in the horse.
Horses use their back for almost every motion they make. If there is even a small problem in a horse's back, the horse can suffer greatly. A vet can use several different approaches to find out what the source of the back pain may be. Once you find out the cause and treat it, not only will your horse be happy, but so will the rider. As with all equine health related issues, please consult your veterinarian professional for all concerns and questions relating to the health and well being of your horse.

The slit-lamp examination looks at structures that are at the front of the eye.
Alternative Names
How the test is performed
The slit-lamp is a low-power microscope combined with a high-intensity light source that can be focused to shine in a thin beam.
You will sit in a chair with the instrument placed in front of you. You will be asked to rest your chin and forehead on a support to keep your head steady.
The health care provider will examine your eyes, especially the eyelids, cornea, conjunctiva, sclera, and iris. Often a yellow dye (fluorescein) is used to help examine the cornea and tear layer. The dye is either added as a drop, or the health care provider may touch a fine strip of paper stained with the dye to the white of your eye. The dye rinses out of the eye with tears as you blink.
Next, drops may be placed in your eyes to widen (dilate) your pupils. The drops take about 15 to 20 minutes to work. The slit-lamp examination is then repeated using another small lens held close to the eye, so the back of the eye can be examined.
How to prepare for the test
No special preparation is necessary for this test.
How the test will feel
Your eyes will be sensitive to light for a few hours after the exam if dilating drops are used.
Why the test is performed
This test is used to examine the:
Normal Values
Structures in the eye are found to be normal.
What abnormal results mean
The slit lamp exam may detect many diseases of the eye, including:
Cataract Corneal injury
- Dry eye syndrome
Macular degeneration Retinal detachment Retinal vessel occlusion Retinitis pigmentosa Uveitis
This list does not include all possible diseases of the eye.
What the risks are
The dilating drops may cause increased pressure in the eye with nausea and pain. This is very rare, but you should return to your doctor's office right away if you experience either of these symptoms.

Baconit (and its PC browser client BaconSync) is probably your best choice if you're a casual or hardcore Reddit user who also uses Windows Phone.
Head past the break for the complete change log or just watch our video to get the highlights of those new features in action!
Baconit version 2.5 (Windows Phone 8 only changes)
- Lock screen wallpaper from any subreddit

- New live tiles for Windows Phone 8
- Tap + Send support
- New social network sharing
- New animations
- Rapid resume
- High resolution images
- Fixes to flip view to use less memory and have better performance :)

Overall, Baconit version 2.5 is quite killer and makes the app that much better. We'll keep you posted when the update goes live and in the meantime you can pick up Baconit here in the Windows Phone Store 100% free (no ads) and if you love the dev's work (Quinn Damerell) you can get the donation version here for $1.99.

I was in bed when my wife turned on the radio to listen to the morning news. "Starting today, September 18, 2001, the government has ordered all private presses to stop their publications." The disturbing words of the presenter of Dimtsi Hafash Radio, the government station, suddenly froze my train of thoughts. The official statement went on to accuse us of violating press laws and ignoring the warnings we had been given. I felt as if I was dreaming. I didn't move my head. I was still under the blanket.
In those
days, our country, jammed between
However, because we had challenged the government or its policies, we were facing increasing hostility and enduring police harassment. By September 2001, the once-united ruling elite who led us to independence with the promise of democracy split over rebel leader President Isaias Afeworki's resistance to the fulfillment of this promise: the implementation of our constitution. We covered both sides of this debate in the columns of our newspapers.
September morning, I saw the last edition of my newspaper being sold on the
street as I drove downtown and uptown through
At our office, the staff was sitting in the front yard debating that morning's developments.
The oldest member of our staff, and a talented writer, Fessehaye Yohannes (who is also known as Joshua) was optimistic, like most. "They just shut us down because they don't want us to write about the jailed senior officials. They will let us continue our work once the issue is settled," he said. I did not believe that, but I hoped he was right.
noon, I met with Matewos Habteab, editor of Meqaleh
newspaper, and Amanuel Asrat, editor of Zemen
newspaper at Rendez-Vous, a café near
As Matewos and I shared tea and Amanuel sipped an espresso macchiato, we agreed to take extra precautions and resolved to write a letter to the Ministry of Information to demand clarifications about the specific reasons for the government's decision to close our newspapers. Medhanie Haile, deputy editor of KesteDebena, Yusuf Mohamed Ali, editor of Tsigenay, and Saïd Abdelkader, the editor of Admas, joined us and signed the letter too. Amanuel and I handed the letter to the Ministry of Information on September 21, 2001. I didn't know it would be the last time I would see all these talented editors.
Luckily, I was not at home on September 23, the night the security agents came to arrest me. But my colleagues were arrested that night. Four of them—Fessehaye Yohannes, Yusuf Mohamed Ali, Saïd Abdelkader and Medhanie Haile—have already died in prison and we know nothing about where the rest are. That's heartbreaking.
Unlike my
colleagues, I still have a chance to practice journalism.

The Pens handed a furious spanking to the Flyers, plus Crosby's first NHL hat trick. Good for him and that couldn't have happened to a better team. Many a night I recall fierce arguments with Flyers fans who were going to college out this way where my buddy's went... Things could get ugly fast.
Too much Pens talk, not nearly enough Preds talk.

Hi there,
I've written a foreign function to read from the comport. This function now has to be improved. I want to read from the comport x times, where x can be between 1 and 10 (for now), and then pass the raw data to an Oracle Forms program. The function is called by a PL/SQL script that has been trigger by the user. Now I have the following questions:
- How can I pass an array of strings to a foreign function inside a DLL? And how to pass it back?
- Does anyone have an example about this subject? Please both PL/SQL and C/C++ code.
- Any other ideas?
I want to use the Oracle Foreign Function Interface for this (my function already uses this interface so I don't have to reprogram it!).
I'm using Oracle 8.1 (database), Oracle Forms Builder 6 and Microsoft Visual C++ (Visual studio) on a Windows 95 operating system. If it's an issue, I want to use the same code on both Windows 95 and Windows NT.
I've posted messages on numerous forums (even Oracle's Metalink (metalink.oracle.com)) but no replies sofar. So if anyone has a suggestion please let me know
Much thanks in advance.
Marco Houtman

Note from the composer: Little Lucas is dedicated to my 2 year-old son. It is a happy medium swinger that captures his mischievous nature with the deceptively difficult movement of major 7th chords in the A sections. The melody notes are, for the most part, the 7th of each chord and these notes follow a diminished scale sequence--going up a half-step and then down a major third repetitively. The B section features a 2 five sequence that moves in major thirds. Originally, I wrote this tune for a quartet date. For this arrangement I added a line played by the bass and piano at the end of each A section and voiced out the horns in open drop 2 voicings for a clear and cheery sound.

Milwaukee (mĬlwŏk´ē), city (1990 pop. 628,088), seat of Milwaukee co., SE Wis., at the point where the Milwaukee, Menominee, and Kinnickinnic rivers enter Lake Michigan; inc. 1846. The largest city in the state, it is a port of entry, shipping heavy cargo from the entire Midwest to world ports via the St. Lawrence Seaway, and is connected by ferry to Muskegon, Mich. It is a producer of heavy machinery and electrical equipment and a principal manufacturer of diesel and gasoline engines, tractors, and beer; Milwaukee once dominated the country's beer-brewing industry. Motorcycles, refrigeration equipment, chocolate, and electronic products are also produced.
In 1673, Father Jacques Marquette visited the site, which was then a Native American gathering and trading center. In 1795 the North West Company established a fur-trading post. Solomon Juneau, the fur trader, arrived in 1818, and in 1838 several settlements merged to form Milwaukee village. It grew as a shipping center and became famous for its numerous industries, notably brewing and meatpacking. German refugees arrived in large numbers after 1848, stimulating the city's political, economic, and social growth. The Knights of Saint Crispin foreshadowed the city's growing labor movement after the Civil War. Victor L. Berger, the Socialist leader, exerted a dominant influence there, and Daniel W. Hoan made Milwaukee known for efficient administration.
In the 1960s, Milwaukee was the scene of racial disorder and black demonstrations. Economically, the city was hit hard in the 1979–82 recession years; more than 60,000 jobs were lost in the industrial sector. Prosperity reoccurred in the late 1980s as manufacturing jobs became more prevalent, aided principally by the economic efforts of major Milwaukee companies, in areas such as the international export of tools and machinery.
Among the educational institutions are Marquette Univ., the Univ. of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, Alverno College, Cardinal Stritch Univ., the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, and the Milwaukee School of Engineering. Attractions include the breweries, with guided tours; the Milwaukee Art Museum; the Milwaukee Public Museum; a decorative arts museum and mansions open to the public; the Harley-Davidson Museum; a church by Frank Lloyd Wright; a performing arts center; a large convention center; and the water tower. The popular lakefront hosts numerous festivals, and the sizable park system includes Washington Park; Mitchell Park, with enclosed botanical gardens; Juneau Park; and Estabrook Park, with one of the city's oldest houses. Milwaukee is also home to the Brewers (National League baseball) and the Bucks (National Basketball Association).

First Gold Medals at the World Games in 2017!
Pin-kode det
The World Games in Wroclaw is a great event. The first gold medals have already been bestowed to Russia, Korea and Spain. In the wake of Rio Olympic stars Margarita Mamun and Yana Kudryavtseva (the former on hiatus, the latter retired), identical twins Dina and Arina Averina have emerged as Russia's Rhythmic heirs apparent. On the World Cup circuit this spring, both achieved success, but on Friday, it was Arina who emerged victorious with both the Hoop and the Ball. Who was her biggest rival? It was the familiar face of Dina, who earned silver with both apparatus? By taking bronze with the Hoop and Ball, respectively, newcomer Linoy Ashram of Israel and Belarusian veteran Katsiaryna Halkina also got a first taste of medal at The World Games. After reigning World champions Michela Castoldi and Davide Donati were eliminated in the qualification round, the Spanish duo of Sara Moreno and Vicente Lli seized their opportunity to take a second World Games gold in Aerobic Mixed Pairs. The only returners among the four couples who tied for the title at The World Games 2013, Lli and Moreno's moment has been a long time coming. The two-time World champions (2010 and 2012) were poised to pick up the 2016 World title last year, but a mistake in the final left them heartbroken in eighth. Hungary's Dora Hegyi and Daniel Bali earned silver to go with their silver from the 2016 Worlds, while veterans Andreea Bogati and Dacian Barna assured a Romanian presence on the medal podium for a country traditionally strong in Aerobic Gymnastics. A year ago, South Korea's Aerobic Dance team (Han Jae Hyun, Kim Hanjin, Kim Yu Hwan, Kwon Tae Yun, Lee Jon Gu, Park Hyunmin, Ryu Jusun and Song Sungkyu) conjured its first ever World title with a routine that contained an unlikely combination of symphony and hip-hop. The Koreans arrived in Poland with a new exercise riffing on the golden original. The remix proved as much of a hit, giving Korea its second consecutive major title in the category, ahead of Russia and Hungary.

Often when there are storms on the islands, especially on Kauai, we end up getting stuck somewhere (with our friends, family, roommates, boyfriends getting stuck somewhere else). There are just not that many options on an island whose main highway is one lane in each direction – especially when the few bipasses are also being shut down. This past storm,. which lasted a good part of two weeks (with 47 inches of rainfall in one week), had at any given time 5-10 sections of the highway blocked off by mudslides, fallen trees, flooding. Parts of the highway caved in certain areas and detours were set up that, if you could get through, added a good chunk of time to the drive. A friend trying to make it home told me the water went up to the roof of her car; luckily that was pooling water. As the rule goes, it only takes 18 inches to lift your car or SUV (6″ of rushing water can knock over a man). Suffice to say, some trying to pass at river crossings with fast moving water didn't fair so well*: at least one truck didn't make it, and a few people were swept out to sea (everyone was saved except a Sunnyvale, CA woman hiking the NaPali and trying to cross the river mouth at Hanakapiai stream).
Locals on Kauai are, for the most part, used to dealing with the elements and the musical chair risk of venturing out right before or during the storm. The advantage for those living here is if you do get stuck, there's usually someone you know in the quadrant you find yourself whose house you can crash at. For tourists, especially those visiting during a sold-out spring break, you get to sleep in your car. Red Cross and churches do open shelters, but most are "day" shelters and have no accommodations for overnight guests.
What I find surprising is how many businesses managed to stay open during these storms. What most people don't realize is that locals take a lot of risk by going to work. Not only the dangers on the road (some watermen manage to cross rivers via paddleboard to get there) but they're often left to contend with new road closures that trap them in while they're working. Many times their own home is flooding and they aren't able to get back to help divert water and set up sand bags. Roy Yamaguchi's The Tavern restaurant in Princeville had the same crew who kept the restaurant running for days, because people on the next shift weren't able to get there, and most couldn't go home anyway (hopefully the tourists knew enough to tip them well!).
One positive is that many people who live in hurricane/tsunami zones stock up on supplies; but those with large families and/or got lazy and pillaged the stash since the last emergency inevitably participate in the panic buys. It's like shopping at the grocery store when you are hungry… but then you cube it. Many who lived in areas previously hit by storm/hurricane situations, stranded for weeks, with no supplies getting in, well, they haven't quite recovered from the trauma of not having any toilet paper – so besides bottled water that's often one of the first things to go. There are only a few grocery store options on the North Shore Kauai, and those that were open were decently rampaged with no way for trucks to replenish supplies.
It gets complicated trying to find the most up-to-date information regarding conditions and road closures. Kauai.gov is sometimes on it, and sometimes it's a whole day before they post a new press release. The Coconut Wireless has evolved to include radio (kudos KONG FM), cell, blogs, Facebook…. Most trying to get in or out of Hanalei call or check the USGS website for the Hanalei River gage height – six feet (depending on the tide) usually shuts down the Hanalei Bridge. Other times it's more efficient to call one of the businesses in town. When the power and cell phones cut out (AT&T living up to their dysfunctional rep) details travel the old fashioned way – word of mouth. One KHON2.com headline summed it up: "Hawaii Weather Likely for the Record Books". So with waterspouts churning into full-fledged tornados; baseball-sized hail falling from the sky; lightning (and thunder) in a place that is known for not having much of either – some awesome picts from across the islands managed to make their way around. We put some of the best together: Hawai'i Storm March 2012 slideshow. We tried to credit everyone, but somes sources were unknown since they get reposted without proper credits. Captions wouldn't show up on the slideshow itself, so they're included in the gallery link (click the "Continue Reading/Photo Credits" tab below and then the individual pictures to access). If anyone doesn't want their photo included just let us know, we'll remove it ASAP.
This post is dedicated to those who ventured out to get the picts. As well as the locals, emergency crews, rescue crews, utility crews, road crews, etc. who were so quick to deal with dangerous storm conditions and help to open roads and return user's power. Mahalo! Sansan Sheng, RIP.
* Flooding is the #1 storm-related killer—not tornadoes, not severe thunderstorms, not winter storms. It ranks only behind heat waves in number of casualties for all weather events. Flooding also takes many different forms, from river flooding to flash flooding to snowmelt flooding. It occurs in any month of the year, any time of day. It is a threat in almost any place. More than half of all flood-related deaths are drownings that result from vehicles caught in flood waters and then swept downstream. Eighty percent of all flood deaths occur when people drive into flooded roadways or simply walk through moving water. Many of these drownings are preventable if people do not drive or walk into flooded roads, sidewalks, etc. People often underestimate the force of water.

According to 1010WINS radio, "banned breed" dogs that are already in public housing will be grandfathered-in as long as they are registered with the housing authority before Friday.
Pit bulls, Dobermans, Rottweilers banned from public housing
BY Oren Yaniv and Lisa L. Colangelo
Wednesday, April 29th 2009, 4:00 AM
Pit bulls are now Public Enemy No.1 at city housing projects.
Starting Friday, the powerful popular breed that's sometimes trained to be violent is banned from all apartments run by the city Housing Authority.
"Finally someone is realizing that these potentially dangerous animals have no place in a confined urban space," said City Councilman Peter Vallone (D-Queens), who has unsuccessfully lobbied state legislators to ban the dogs.
The Housing Authority regulations also bar residents from owning any dog over 25 pounds. The current policy allows dogs that weigh up to 40 pounds. In addition, owning Rottweilers and Doberman pinschers also is banned under the new rules.
Housing Authority residents who already have the breeds will be able to keep them as long as they register by Friday.
City housing officials said residents urged them to ban the dogs that they claim are too vicious and threatening.
But dog lovers who have pit bulls and the other targeted pooches are upset.
"He's my baby," Jose Hernandez, 32, who lives in the Lillian Wald Houses on the lower East Side, said of his 6-year-old pit bull, Chopper. "These are not bad dogs."
"It all depends on how you teach a dog," said Anthony Nieves, 37, as he walked his 1-year-old pit bull, Storm, near his home at the Wald Houses.
"My dog is like a puppy," Nieves said.
The ASPCA and other groups opposed to the ban have been working with the city housing agency to ease some of the restrictions.
"We are opposed to breed-specific bans," said Michelle Villagomez, ASPCA senior manager of advocacy and campaigns.
"And we find the weight restriction is too oppressive. So many breeds are over 25 pounds. You can get an overweight beagle that weighs more than 25 pounds."
Full list of banned breeds and the new pet policy is available here: http://www.nyc.gov/html/nycha/downloads/pdf/j09apre.pdf

New NYCHA Regulation Threatens Dogs Belonging to Residents of Public Housing
ASPCA Urges Residents of NYC Housing Authority to Take Action & Register Pets
April 28, 2009
ASPCA Media Contact
NEW YORK— The ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) urges residents of public housing under the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) to register their dogs prior to the May 1, 2009 implementation date of the revised NYCHA pet policy, which restricts dog ownership based on breed and weight.
The revised NYCHA pet policy reduces the permissible weight for full grown dogs from 40 pounds to 25 pounds, and prohibits Pit bull, Rottweiler and Doberman breeds either purebred or mixed breed. In addition, residents must obtain a veterinarian certification verifying that their dogs are spayed or neutered, vaccinated against rabies, not one of the prohibited breeds, and licensed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Dogs already registered with NYCHA before the implementation of this revised policy, regardless of breed and providing they do not exceed the current 40 pound weight limit, will be grandfathered and allowed to remain in NYCHA housing. If residents submit a registration form for their pet by April 30th, they will be allowed 90 days to obtain the veterinarian certification.
"The ASPCA is opposed to this policy and is working to prevent it from going into effect," said Laura Maloney, ASPCA Senior Vice President of Anti-Cruelty. "We oppose laws that discriminate against particular breeds or impose excessive weight restrictions. This regulation unfairly discriminates against responsible dog guardians on both counts."
Information on Pet Registration and Fee
Existing Residents must submit the registration form to the NYCHA Housing Office by April 30th in order to have their dogs grandfathered and allowed to remain in NYCHA housing. After the registration form is submitted, residents are given a 90 day grace period to submit a veterinarian certification. The revised pet policy goes into effect Friday, May 1st.
New Residents must submit the registration form to the NYCHA Housing Office during the rental interview for any dog, cat or service animal they wish to bring into the NYCHA apartment. Staff must explain the pet policy to prospective residents at the time of the rental interview.
Pet registration fee is $25 for all residents who do not reside at project based Section 8 developments. Owners of service animals and animals that live in buildings designated exclusively for senior citizens are exempt from this fee.
For the purpose of filling out the registration form, you can immediately obtain a dog license number by purchasing the license online.
"The ASPCA is working with the Mayor's Alliance for New York City's Animals to negotiate with NYCHA, but the issue has not yet been resolved," said Michelle Villagomez, ASPCA Senior Manager of Advocacy and Campaigns. "We want to assure NYCHA residents who own animals that this is a priority for us and we strongly urge residents of New York City public housing to register their dogs as soon as possible before the revised policy goes into effect."
To obtain a registration form, residents can visit their NYCHA management office between 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. or call (212) 306-3000. The form is also available online: http://www.nyc.gov/html/nycha/downloads ... ration.pdf
**Registration forms will be available at the ASPCA Adoption Center and Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital located at 424 East 92nd Street**

May 20, 2012
To help doctors give their patients the best possible care, the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) developed evidence-based recommendations on using computed tomography (CT) scans to screen for lung cancer in people who smoke or who have previously quit smoking. This guide for patients is based on the ACCP and ASCO recommendations.
Key Messages
- Lung cancer is more common in people who smoke, particularly those who smoke frequently or who have smoked for a long time.
- CT screening has been shown to lower the risk of death from lung cancer for heavy smokers, and the ACCP and ASCO recommend CT screening for certain people who smoke.
- Screening is not a replacement for quitting smoking. Quitting smoking is the only way to lower the risk of developing lung cancer.
More than 200,000 Americans are diagnosed with lung cancer each year. Most lung cancers occur in people who smoke or in those who have smoked in the past. Tobacco smoke damages cells in the lungs, causing the cells to grow abnormally. The risk of lung cancer from smoking is higher for people who smoke heavily and/or who have smoked for a long time. A common way to measure how much a person has smoked over his or her lifetime is in pack years. A pack year is the number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day multiplied by the number of years a person has smoked. For example, smoking one pack a day for 30 years or two packs a day for 15 years both equal 30 pack years.
Recently, results from the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) showed that there were 20% fewer lung cancer deaths in people who received screening with a low-dose CT scan than with a chest x-ray. A CT scan creates a three-dimensional picture of the inside of the body with an x-ray machine. A computer then combines these images into a detailed, cross-sectional view that shows any abnormalities or tumors. Sometimes, a contrast medium (a special dye) is injected into a patient's vein to provide better detail in the images.
Recommendations for Lung Cancer Screening
The ACCP and ASCO recommend the following lung cancer screening schedules for people who currently smoke or who have quit smoking:
- Yearly screening with a low-dose CT scan is recommended instead of screening with a chest x-ray or no screening for people age 55 to 74 who have smoked for 30 pack years or more or who have quit within the past 15 years.
- CT screening is not recommended for people who have smoked for less than 30 pack years, are younger than 55 or older than 74, have quit smoking more than 15 years ago, or have a serious condition that could affect cancer treatment or shorten a person's life.
What This Means for Patients
If you currently smoke, screening for lung cancer is not a substitute for quitting smoking. Quitting smoking is the only way to reduce your risk of lung cancer.
However, CT scanning may help find lung cancer earlier when treatment is likely to work better. The NLST showed that three lung cancer deaths were prevented for every 1,000 people who received CT screening. The benefit of screening also appeared to outweigh the risks of the radiation from the low-dose CT scans. There is a risk that CT screening can find abnormal areas in the lungs that are not cancerous. If an abnormal area is found on CT screening, more testing would still be needed to find out if it is cancerous or noncancerous. CT screening also increases the likelihood of being diagnosed with and treated for lung cancer because screening may sometimes find slow-growing cancers that would not have been found otherwise.
If you are considering lung cancer screening, it's important that it is done at a cancer center that can provide the complete support and resources needed for the screening, as well as evaluating the images, managing the results, and diagnosing and treating cancer.
Questions to Ask the Doctor
Consider asking the following questions of your doctor:
- What is my risk of lung cancer?
- Can you help me calculate my pack years for my smoking history?
- If I still smoke, how can you help me quit?
- What are the risks and benefits of screening for lung cancer with a CT scan?
- Do you recommend I receive a CT scan to screen for lung cancer?
- Where can I receive screening that can provide assistance and support throughout the process?
- What are the next steps if the CT scan indicates cancer?

I have an old Linksys WRT54GL router flashed with an open-source firmware DD-WRT. One of the nice things you can do with DD-WRT is configure it as a client bridge. You can then use the client bridge to connect a computer with no wireless network interface to the network. This article was written to help me remember in the future how to setup a client bridge on a Linksys WRT54GL flashed with DD-WRT. The configuration details pertains more to me and may not necessarily work out for your setup. If you want a more complete instruction, check out the client bridge documentation available from DD-WRT's website.
- Reset the router. Login. Set username and password.
- Go to Wireless > Wireless Security. Set security mode and key to match your AP.
- Go to Wireless > Basic. Set wireless mode to Client Bridge.
- The wireless mode and SSID should be the same as your AP.
- Go to Setup > Basic setup and manually set IP address.
- Set IP address to 10.10.10.12. Leave local DNS blank. Main router is 10.10.10.11.
- Go to Security > Firewall and disable SPI firewall and only multicast checked.
- Go to Setup > Advanced Routing. Change mode from gateway to router.

Press Release
Anchorage Personal Care Attendant Convicted for Fraudulently Billing Medicaid
June 5, 2013
On May 31, 2013, 30 year old Tutuila Susie Tapuolo of Anchorage was sentenced by the Anchorage District on a single count of committing Medical Assistance Fraud. Tapuolo was sentenced to 60 days of suspended jail, a fine of $500, community work service of 40 hours and informal probation for a period of three years. Tapuolo is prohibited from working as a personal care attendant for a period of three years and will be barred from billing Medicaid for a period of ten years following her discharge from probation.
The case against Tapuolo was the result of a Division of Public Assistance investigation into potential public assistance fraud. The investigation revealed that two personal care attendants (Tutuila Tapuolo and Ailini Aiesi) billed Medicaid for providing home based healthcare services in Alaska while their Medicaid recipients were actually travelling outside of the country in Pago Pago, Samoa. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agents verified the findings by the Division of Public Assistance by confirming that Tapuolo's Medicaid recipient was outside of the country from September 26, 2011 through November 18, 2011. During this time, Tapuolo submitted timesheets to Caring Companions LLC claiming that she was providing Medicaid services such as mobility assistance, bathing, dressing, toileting and personal hygiene assistance to a Medicaid recipient in Alaska. Tapuolo falsely claimed to have provided $944.54 worth of Medicaid services during this time period.
The Alaska MFCU is part of the Attorney General's Office. The MFCU is responsible for investigating and prosecuting Medicaid fraud and abuse, neglect or financial exploitations of patients in any facility that accepts Medicaid funds. The indictment and information adding misdemeanor counts for each of these cases can be found on the MFCU website.
