Jim Schaendorf is a both tractor puller and a track perfecter.
Jim Schaendorf is a both tractor puller and a track perfecter.
The Dorr native will again be wearing both hats when the National Tractor Pullers Association rolls into town for two nights of action at the Ionia Free Fair.
Like most competitors in the NTPA, Schaendorf grew up driving tractors and entering pull competitions at various levels. His current ride features four turbo chargers, pulls at 3,500 horsepower and represents a $250,000 investment.
"For me, this is more less a hometown pull," Schaendorf said. "I've been going to it since I've been old enough to walk.
"Ionia used to be biggest pull in the state in its heyday, and my goal is to get it back to where it used to be."
Schaendorf said he believes that can be achieved with the bigger, better and "badder" equipment being used in NTPA events.
Three different classes are competing during Friday and Saturday's competition include Superstock ($5,250 purse), Four Wheel Drives ($4,000 purse) and three-engine modified tractors ($4,000 purse). All three classes are pulling each night. Admission is $14 for adults and $10 for children.
A 15-second pass of up to 300 or 320 feet will burn approximately 1.25 gallons of diesel fuel and at least that much water to cool the engines.
"The modified tractors get fairly loud, and you might need earplugs for some people," Schaendorf said. "The other two classes are not that loud because they are quieted down by going through a series of superchargers. They mainly just pull hard and blow a lot of black smoke in the air."
Schaendorf, who runs a dairy farm in Dorr, plans to showcase his Super Stock Diesel named Radical Red in the grandstand arena both Friday and Saturday evenings, beginning at 7 p.m.
But not before he makes the track just right for the powerful pullers. Schaendorf insists that he will serve no track before its time.
"My goal is to treat the track like it's being groomed for a drag race," he said. "If you don't have a good drag strip for cars to compete on, then you don't get a good show. My goal is to build the best track possible to make the best show possible."
Schaendorf is the Region 2 director for the NTPA, which covers Michigan, Northern Indiana and Ohio. He claims the secret to making a great track is like making and baking a cake.
"It's all about the type of dirt you have," Schaendorf said. "You need a good clay based material and need to add just the right amount of water to make it consistent from point A to point B.
"I plan to work on the track all day from 10 a.m. until it is ready. I'll be grooming it, adding water, disking it in and adding more water to get the right consistency. It's a very fine line between making it just right and not being just right. It's pretty much like making a cake mix."
This year, the pit area is open to spectators prior to the start of the competition. Fans can talk to the pullers, take photos of their favorite machines and pick and choose their favorites.

PARIS (Reuters) - Seven-times Formula One motor racing world champion Michael Schumacher is making progress and showing signs of waking from an artificial coma after suffering serious head injuries in a skiing accident, his agent said on Friday.
"Michael is making progress on his way. He shows moments of consciousness and awakening," Sabine Kehm said in a statement.
Schumacher, 45, slammed his head on a rock while skiing off-piste in the French Alps resort of Meribel on December 29 last year.
The most successful Formula One champion of all time has been in a stable but critical condition since then in a hospital in the eastern French city of Grenoble.
Doctors started lowering the retired German racing driver's sedation at the end of January to wake him up from an artificial coma.
"We are on his side during his long and difficult fight, together with the team of the hospital in Grenoble, and we keep remaining confident," said the brief statement.
Schumacher, who won a record 91 Grand Prix victories, left the sport last year after a disappointing three-year comeback with Mercedes following an earlier retirement from Ferrari at the end of 2006.
The statement was welcomed by drivers taking part in practice for this weekend's Bahrain Grand Prix, a race Schumacher won on its first appearance on the calendar exactly 10 years ago.
The German now has a corner named after him at the Sakhir circuit.
"It was fantastic to hear some good news," said Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg, Schumacher's former team mate and compatriot whose car has a message of support on the side.
"I'm very happy; everybody in the paddock is very happy about that. For sure they are going to be cautious before saying something good, so it must be a real positive step. It's great. I hope he continues to make progress."
Four-times world champion and compatriot Sebastian Vettel, a friend of Schumacher who was also one of his boyhood idols, was also encouraged.
"It is very good to hear it's going in the right direction," said the Red Bull driver. "Naturally he still has a long process ahead of him, but for sure we wish him the best."

::Documentation ::FormBuilder Google Group ::Old List Archives ::Contribute
Advanced Tutorial - Step 2: Intro to Templates Print<< Remaining Features | HTML::Template >>
The basic idea behind any templating system is to keep the HTML layout separate from the CGI application. The HTML is placed in a template, which is then expanded by the templating module.
FormBuilder provides native support for the following engines:
Fully exploiting templates is probably deserving of its own tutorial. So, this will just give you a taste of what you can do. From there you should refer to the appropriate documentation on the template system of your choice.
Like anything else, enabling templates only requires one additional option to FormBuilder:
$form = CGI::FormBuilder->new( method => 'post', fields => \@fields, template => '/path/to/file.tmpl' );The above will enable
HTML::Template style templates.
If you want to make use of
Template Toolkit, you must
use a hashref so you can specify the type:
$form = CGI::FormBuilder->new( method => 'post', fields => \@fields, template => { type => 'TT2', # Template Toolkit template => '/path/to/file.tmpl', } );In fact,
Template Toolkit accepts many other options, any of which
can be specified within the
template block above. Consult the
Template Toolkit documentation for a list of options.
You can do the same thing with
$form = CGI::FormBuilder->new( method => 'post', fields => \@fields, template => { type => 'HTML', # HTML::Template filename => '/path/to/file.tmpl', shared_cache => 1 } );Basically, if you specify a hashref to the
template option, this
hashref is passed directly to the template module, so it can accept any
and all options the template module can natively.
In all cases, you don't change anything else! You address your form fields just like you would without a template. Your template is automatically expanded by FormBuilder when you say:
print $form->render;Not to brag, but how cool is that!

Course description
The Probability and Statistics group (4 Professors, 3 Senior Lecturers and 10 Lecturers) in the School of Mathematics have a long-standing reputation and experience of offering one year, high quality taught courses in areas of Statistics leading to the degree of MSc.These courses have aimed to offer a thorough professional training which prepare students to embark on statistical careers in a variety of areas. (There is a shortage of statisticians trained to postgraduate level in the UK and the employment prospects for such people remain good.) They have also provided a very good foundation for further study at PhD level.
Our current MSc programme in Statistics allows students to take one of two different MSc degrees, depending on their interests and career aspirations. There is the main programme in Statistics and one associated pathway in Financial Statistics. Each is built around a common core of five modules and then students study an additional set of three specialist modules to make a total of eight in all.

MSc (full-time)
UK/EU students (per annum): £11,000
International students (per annum): £18,500
MSc (part-time)
UK/EU students (per annum): £5,500
International students (per annum): £9,250
The fees quoted above will be fully inclusive for the course tuition, administration and computational costs during your studies.
All fees for entry will be subject to yearly review and incremental rises per annum are also likely over the duration of courses lasting more than a year for UK/EU students (fees are typically fixed for International students, for the course duration at the year of entry). For general fees information please visit: postgraduate fees . Always contact the department if you are unsure which fee applies to your qualification award and method of attendance.

PKP European Network
The PKP European Network is a loose collaboration of institutions and organizations interested in using and advancing the software applications of the Public Knowledge Project. It embraces a diversity of communities, from different languages, and with locally-determined goals and objectives. The Network's purpose is:
- To provide a forum to discuss common issues of PKP software users.
- To collaborate on possible joint-funding opportunities, to sustain both PKP and local projects.
- To share experiences of best practices developed in the implementation of local projects and initiatives.
- To expand the opportunities for community participation in the future technical development of the PKP software applications. This could include the identification of specific development tasks that could be undertaken by members of the Network, as well as the initiation of joint-development projects.
The initial focus of the Network will be on the more commonly used PKP applications, including OJS, OCS, and eventually OMP. Attention may also be directed toward the OHS if a specific need arises. The broader objective of tying these applications together in an Open Knowledge Environment will also be of interest to the Network.
For its part, the Public Knowledge Project will collaborate closely with the Network, respond to input and feedback, be available for technical and policy consultations, and participate in workshops or presentations. As well, PKP will look to the Network as the representative of an important sector of its software user base, and take careful consideration of its expressed needs as part of the ongoing development of the applications.
SPARC Europe is supporting the establishment of this network.

If there is one thing I cannot tolerate it's a technology company playing with my emotions by promising one thing and delivering another. During the keynote, Steve Jobs clearly indicated the iPhone will not have 3G support built-in, meaning it will not poses UMTS or HSDPA technology. And yet John Markoff of the New York Times is claiming that Apple will provide a firmware upgrade that will unlock this hidden functionality.
Hint to Mr. Markoff 3G is a hardware feature, not software. Meaning that it's going to take a hell of a lot more than a firmware upgrade to add 3G capability to iPhone if the underlying hardware that enables it is missing. Smacks John on forehead

Wholesale prices in the U.S. dropped in April by the most in three years, reflecting a decrease in fuel costs that is helping underpin profits.
The producer-price index declined 0.7%, the biggest decrease since February 2010, after falling 0.6% in March, according to a Labor Department report released today in Washington. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of 73 economists projected the index would decline 0.6%. So- called core wholesale inflation, which excludes often-volatile food and energy prices, climbed 0.1%.
Slow growth in the U.S. and abroad is holding input-price gains in check for American factories. Absent a surge in inflation, policy makers at the Federal Reserve have the option of weighing whether the U.S. economic expansion needs more stimulus to pick up.
"For now, producers are in a pretty comfortable position," said Jacob Oubina, a senior economist at RBC Capital Markets LLC in New York, who correctly forecast the April drop in prices. "Input costs are benign at the moment."
Another report today showed manufacturing in the New York region unexpectedly shrank in May as factories received fewer orders and sales stagnated. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York's general economic index declined to minus 1.4 this month from 3.1 in April. Readings less than zero signal contraction in New York, northern New Jersey and southern Connecticut. The median projection in a Bloomberg survey called for an increase to 4.

Stock-index futures held earlier losses after the reports. The contract on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index maturing in June fell 0.2% to 1,645.2 at 8:43 a.m. in New York.
Economists' estimates for the April producer-price index ranged from a drop of 1.2% to a gain of 0.5%. The increase in core wholesale prices matched the median forecast in the Bloomberg survey.
Compared with a year ago, companies paid 0.6% more for materials in April, the smallest year-to-year gain since July. The core price index climbed 1.7% in the past 12 months through April, the same as in the prior month, today's report showed.
Fuel costs dropped 2.5% in April from the previous month, led by an 8.8% plunge in the cost of home heating oil that was the biggest in almost four years.

The Senju clan (千手一族, Senju Ichizoku) was a group of shinobi that were the strongest, feared and most respected clan above all other clans in the ninja world during the war-torn era before the founding of the hidden villages.[3] Together with their rivals — and distant relatives through a common ancestor — the Uchiha clan, they are responsible for founding the first hidden village named Konohagakure and making the village into what it is today. The clan has produced three of the five Hokage of Konoha: the First, Second, and the Fifth.
History EditEdit
The Senju clan descended from the younger of the two sons of the Sage of the Six Paths who was born with the "body" of the Sage, inheriting his father's strength of will and physical energy and believed that love was the key to bringing peace to the world. The Sage grew to favour the ideals of his younger son over those of his older son, who believed that power alone was the true key to finding peace. Therefore, on his deathbed it was the younger of the two brothers that the Sage chose to name as his successor. The elder brother, bitter and hateful at having being denied what he felt was rightfully his to inherit, attacked his younger sibling. The Uchiha clan would descend from the elder brother, resulting in the bitter centuries-long rivalry between the Senju and the Uchiha.[4] While undisputed, the Senju's legendary rivalry with Uchiha clan was taken advantage of by countries that hire their services. The Senju clan gained their fame in the era before the founding of the hidden villages. Where other clans focused on mastering one particular set of skills, the Senju were prodigious in all skills, from ninjutsu, to taijutsu, and genjutsu. Because of this, they were known as "the clan with a thousand skills" (「千の手を持つ一族」, "sen no te o motsu ichizoku"), which gave them their name "Senju" (千手; Literally meaning ""a thousand skills", "a thousand hands"").[1]
The Senju clan under Hashirama's leadership. The most famous member of the clan was Hashirama Senju, whose unique Wood Release ninjutsu that gave the clan the nickname the Senju clan of the forest (森の千手一族, Mori no Senju Ichizoku), and his ability to control the tailed beasts, made him the greatest shinobi of his time. However, living in a world of constant bloodshed, Hashirama had a great love for his fellow man and a dream of peace among all ninja. Known as the "Will of Fire" (火の意志, "Hi no Ishi"), this belief enable Hashirama to use his position as leader to convince his clan to propose a truce with the Uchiha clan. Weary of fighting, and persuaded by Hashirama's great charisma and negotiation skill, though not accepted at first, the Uchiha ultimately conceded to the fact that the Senju were superior to them and started to surrender to the Senju. During a battle that lasted an entire day, Madara Uchiha finally fell in battle but still refused to accept the truce until Hashirama killed either himself or his own brother.[5] Witnessing Hashirama's resolve to kill himself, Madara finally accepted their truce thus ending the bloody rivalry between the two clan.[6]
The Senju and Uchiha form an alliance. The Senju and the Uchiha created a permanent settlement for shinobi within the country: Konohagakure. The first of its kind, the system along with the name inspired more countries to have their own hidden village per country, ending the Era of the Warring States with Hashirama's dream becoming a reality. But it would soon start again after Hashirama was elected as the First Hokage with the only Uchiha who was against the truce, Madara Uchiha who came to the conclusion that the hope for his clan was slowly dwindling, defected from the village in search of what he called his own reality. This would renew his battles with Hashirama until the fated, final battle at the Valley of the End where Hashirama resolved to protect his own dream, killing his former friend who had succumbed to the Curse of Hatred.[7]
The Uzumaki and Senju. The Senju and Uzumaki clans are distant blood relatives whom they retained strong connections with.[8] For this reason Konoha-nin uniforms have the symbol of Uzushiogakure emblazoned on its shoulders. Hashirama's wife would also come from this clan, further strengthening their ties. Throughout the years, the Senju retained their supremacy over Konoha, and made the village into what it is today. After the First Hokage's death, his younger brother, Tobirama Senju, stepped up to become the Second Hokage. Although likely not a Senju by blood, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who would become the Third Hokage after the Second's death, was trained by both the First and Second. His successor, Minato Namikaze, was the student of Jiraiya, who was a student of the Third. Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, was not only a student of the Third, but also the granddaughter of the First and the grandniece of the Second. All of them strongly held to the Will of Fire philosophy. It is unknown if the Senju clan still exists as an independent clan since there are no known persons with the last name "Senju" — with the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, being the only possible exception. Their legacy however, lives on strongly in the hearts of the people of Konoha.

Boris Becker is one of the biggest names at Wimbledon and he has been telling GiveMeSport about the ten most memorable moments from his time at the All England Club.
Yesterday Boris chose his final farewell at SW19 and today he has picked out the 1995 final with another Wimbledon legend, Pete Sampras.
The American was reigning champion that year and was looking for his third consecutive title.
Meanwhile, Becker was looking to go one better than his semi-final appearance in 1994 and win his fourth Wimbledon title.
He did eventually meet Sampras in the final, but his route there was far from easy and an epic five set encounter with Frenchman Cedric Pioline in the quarter-final took a lot out of him.
The final stages of Grans Slams provide no place to hide and the Pioline victory was followed by an attritional four-set victory over number one seed Andre Agassi in the semi-final.
Tiredness was always going to be a factor for Becker when he made it to the last Sunday and there were was no player at that time you would want to see less on the other side of the net than Sampras.
However, it didn't look like being a problem early on when the German took a close first set on a tie-break.
'Boom-Boom' Boris of old was the man on grass but this was the early days of the Sampras era and the great man was never more at home than when on the green stuff.
Huge serving and penetrating volleys, added to Becker's legs finally succumbing to fatigue, meant Sampras was not broken once throughout the match and eventually cruised to victory.
Becker was his usual frank self when speaking after defeat, acknowledging the superiority of his opponent with grace before running off on an impromptu lap of honour around Centre Court.
"Unfortunately, he owns the Centre Court now; I used to own it a few years back, but it belongs to him now," he said.
"If there's a role model in tennis, it's Pete Sampras. He is behaving perfectly on the court. He is a real nice fellow off the court, and he is playing great tennis.
"He doesn't really have a bad shot in his game. I think he's definitely extremely good for the game of tennis."
Becker chose this moment because it was the final time he would make it to a Wimbledon final – his seventh in all.
It was fitting that such an important name in the history of Wimbledon signed off in a terrific match against another one of the greatest players to have graced the historic tournament.

Finnish Industrial Design Archives FIDA opened their 'Success Stories of Design' web exhibition on Tuesday the 20th of March 2012. The exhibition shows products that are familiar to all Finns as well as share the design process and designers behind them. The web exhibition is compiled using the materials of the Finnish Industrial Design Archives FIDA and the Central Archives for Finnish Business Records (Elka). It is a tribute to Finnish top-quality industrial design. The goal of the exhibition is to bring out the importance of design and the contribution of the designers in the creation of a successful product.
A successful design is an essential part of the success of many products. Creating a successful product, there is a demanding product development process that requires the involvement of various experts. The designer compiles the economical, technical and operational requirements. that are sometimes even in contradiction with each others.
Often this work made by the designers remains invisible from the general public, because all we see is the finished product. The idea for the 'Success Stories of Design' web exhibition is to make visible the design process and designers, says FIDA's Information Services Secretary Sari Muinonen.
Access to 'Success Stories of Design' web exhibition is through FIDA's web site www.elka.fi/fida. FIDA's Information Services Secretary Sari Muinonen has planned the content of the exhibition and advertising agency Aalto Ltd in Mikkeli is responsible for the graphical design and the technical implementation.
More information:
Olli Alm, the Central Archives for Finnish Business Records Elka, tel. +358 44 321 3422, firstname.lastname@example.com
Finnish Industrial Design Archives (FIDA) began its operations in 2010 with strong support of the highly respected Finnish industrialist Krister Ahlström and Industrial Designer Jorma "Muumi" Pitkonen. FIDA organises and catalogues the materials related to industrial design and stores them permanently in archive-quality storage media and facilities. Despite of the importance of industrial design to the Finnish culture and economics, no other organisation before FIDA has systematically collected this type of material on Finnish design history, which can be used by researchers and educational organisations. FIDA's pivotal goal is to promote research on industrial and user-centric design and make the material available to everyone interested in design by e.g. web services and digitising documents and objects.
Finnish Industrial Design Archives (FIDA) operates in Mikkeli Finland, in conjunction with the Central Archives for Finnish Business Records Elka. Elka secures the preservation of historical information and traditions related to Finnish business life. FIDA and Elka are part of Digitalmikkeli cluster, which is coordinated by Miktech Ltd. www.digitalmikkeli.fi

The possibility of moving a team to London raises plenty of potential problems. Free agents won't want to go there. High first-round draft picks may decide to pull an Elway/Eli and force a trade.
Travel time, extended road trips, exchange rates, tax rates, language barriers. The exercise could quickly become more trouble than it's worth.
There's another important in-season dynamic that someone smarter than me (that doesn't really narrow it down very much) mentioned today during an off-the-record chat about the London logistics.
Every week, many teams bring in multiple players for tryouts. These "Gong Show" sessions are used to fill immediate needs, and to keep a current database of information in the event a need arises in the future.
For example, if the punter tears an ACL on Sunday, eight or nine punters will show up on Tuesday. Likewise, if the third-down back has a fumbling problem, other potential third-down backs will be brought to town.
Sometimes, the tryouts are done to simply send a message to the guy(s) who play the position at which the team is taking a closer look. Or there's a strategic element; Vikings G.M. Rick Spielman has said that, in the weeks before facing a left-footed punter, the Vikings would bring a left-footed punter to town for a tryout, to help the punt returners get used to the different spin of the ball.
For a team headquartered in London, good luck getting a bunch of street free agents to England on a moment's notice. If any of them have invitations to try out for a team in the U.S. that same day, chances are they'll take their chances with the domestic opportunity instead.
The easy solution would be to have the players try out at the practice facility the London team would use when embarking on a three-or-four-week road trip to America. But that means the team would have to keep front-office personnel in the U.S. location, away from the London headquarters.
And if the London team is preparing for a home game, it means that the coaching staff won't have a chance to personally eyeball the prospects.
At some point, the various logistical challenges associated with having a full-time team in London will create a significant strategic disadvantage for the team based there. To balance things out, the London team would need to get special treatment from the league — and if/when the London team becomes successful, other teams and their fans would argue that the London team is getting too much special treatment.
Thus, while it makes plenty of sense for the NFL to expand the international presence of the sport, moving a team to London could be a mistake that would disrupt the league's current parity and potentially undermine the game's overall integrity.
There's a chance it would work out. But the chance that it wouldn't could be big enough to compel the NFL another way to market the game to people in other countries.

The Shia Ismaili Muslims are a community of ethnically and culturally diverse peoples living in over 25 countries around the world, united in their allegiance to His Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan (known to the Ismailis as Mawlana Hazar Imam), the 49th hereditary Imam (spiritual leader) and direct descendant of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family). This is the official website of the Ismaili Muslim community.

Islam, therefore, guides man not only in his spiritual relationship with God, it also guides man in his relationship with his fellow men and his relationship with the material world around him. It encourages enterprise, but warns that enterprise, without a social conscience, is not acceptable. It is in this respect, where Islam's message applies to all aspects of man's life, that he will be judged not just on what he does but the manner in which he does it.

FREEPORT — A teenage boy is in Freeport Police custody after a man was found shot to death in the city Wednesday night.
At about 11:30 p.m., police were in the area of Empire Street and Float Avenue when they heard what they believed to be shots fired. They apprehended a 16-year-old male running from the area and later found a 30-year-old man lying in a yard suffering from a gunshot wound. The man was taken to FHN where he later died from his wounds.
The victim was identified as Carl Green Jr.
"They keep getting younger and younger," said Josh Sturtevant, whose property was struck by the gunfire, referring to the age of the alleged shooter in this case. "I just bought this building like two months ago."
Sturtevant was sleeping during the incident and wasn't aware of what had happened until Thursday morning. Many neighbors nearby did hear the shots but didn't want to speak on the record about the incident.
The 16-year-old is being held by police as the investigation continues. The case is now in the hands of the Stephenson County state's attorney who will decide what charges will be filed. Police aren't releasing the name of the minor until it is decided if charges are coming and whether the male will be charged as an adult.
"If charged as an adult (the 16-year-old's name) will be released but until then, it's a juvenile matter and confidential," said Freeport Deputy Chief Jim Drehoble. "Right now, he's the only one we have (as a suspect)."
This homicide is Freeport's fourth of 2013. Adel Ahmed Al-Masmari was killed May 27 while working at the South Galena Avenue Convenience Store; and Timothy McGraw was shot in the jaw June 30 while sitting with his daughter on a neighbor's porch; and Walter A. Scott was shot in his apartment on Sept. 25.
"Officers happened to be in the area and heard shots being fired," Drehoble said. "If officers hadn't been in the area at the time it took place, it's possible that the subject would have gotten away. It was crucial to the outcome of this case."
Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to contact the Freeport Police Department at 815-235-8222 or Stateline Area Crime Stoppers at 1-866-847-7669.

It's been a year since the cholera epidemic erupted in earthquake-shattered Haiti and aid agencies are turning to a new weapon in battling the water-borne disease.
Led by the Boston-based Partners in Health, the agencies are looking to begin a vaccination program that they expect will begin to reduce the incidence of cholera and thus make entire vulnerable communities less likely to be overrun by the disease.
The plan calls for vaccinating 100,000 people starting in January. Partners in Health is targeting poor communities in tent camps in quake-devastated Port-au-Prince with little access to safe water and in isolated rural villages near Saint Marc along the Artibonite River, about 60 miles north, where the first cholera cases were reported last Oct. 19.
"What we're proposing is not a trial," Paul Farmer, a Catholic who co-founded Partners in Health and is U.N. deputy special envoy for Haiti, told reporters this afternoon during an international teleconference. "The vaccine has been proven safe. It's yet another effective measure against this epidemic."
The problem, he said, is getting the campaign funded because the world has moved on to other concerns.
The cost is estimated at about $300,000, but Farmer said he and others with Partners in Health have been on the road trying to raise the necessary funds to carry out the vaccination campaign.
"This is the world's largest (cholera) epidemic. It shouldn't require that much effort. We're trying to raise interest sufficiently," he said.
"I hope some of the people on this call are shocked to see how little it costs to get this rolling," he said.
Through Oct. 9, 469,967 cases of the disease have been reported leading to 6,595 deaths, according to the Haitian Ministry of Health and Population. The disease saw an upsurge last week after heavy rains hit parts of the country, Dr. Louise Ivers senior health and policy adviser to PIH, told reporters on the teleconference.
Ivers knows that vaccinating 100,000 people is barely sufficient when entire population of 10 million Haitians are at risk of getting the disease. Each patient must get two doses of the vaccine, which, she said, is 70 percent effective.
Farmer and Ivers also said they want to expand the campaign as more funding becomes available. Other agencies also are joining the effort to administer the vaccine.
What's also needed is increased access to clean water and sanitation, the two physicians said.
Partners in Health estimates that about 54 percent of all Haitians have access to clean water. There is a push within the Haitian government to begin addressing the lack of clean water with some of the $5.9 billion pledge in March 2010 by the countries of the world meeting at the United Nations to discuss their response to the earthquake.
About 40 percent of the funds have been spent thus far. Farmer wants to see the countries making the pledges to return their focus to Haiti.
"We see ourselves as advocates to push for bigger, larger infrastructure projects that will help solve some of these problems" Farmer said.

Jennifer made a simple wintry meal of porcini and crimini mushrooms sauteed in a little cream, mashed potatoes accented at the table with truffle salt, and pan fried fennel and carrots. Really, really delicious, and crying out for Pinot noir.
So we opened the 2008 Seven of Hearts Pinot Noir Willamette Valley. I've written about this producer before, which has a tasting room in Carlton that you shouldn't miss. Seven of Hearts wines, their estate label Luminous Hills, and Honest Chocolates. All excellent stuff, the products of Byron and Dana Dooley. Great people, great stuff. A must stop in Carlton, which has quickly become the center of Yamhill county wine tourism, with several quality tasting rooms within a few block radius and some good food as well.
This wine started out a little reticent. Dark colored but still translucent, the wine only revealed its perfume with some airtime in the glass. Fragrant, strong black cherry aromas, still delicate with floral hints and a little wood spice. Nice acidity, soft tannin but not overly polished. In short, classic 2008 Oregon Pinot noir. Ripe but still restrained, monolithic at first but opening with airtime and clearly showing the structure and flavor components to improve for a few years, at least. And this is their base level, least expensive bottling.
I've tried through all the '08s from this producer, and perhaps reported elsewhere on this blog. But trying this entry-level bottling on its own, wondering if perhaps it wouldn't be as good as I remembered...let me just say this is excellent. Find it, enjoy it now. Age it a little and enjoy it later as well. You can't go wrong. Nice work Dooleys.

FALLBROOK, CA -- Med-Fit Systems has reached an agreement to purchase the commercial company assets of Nautilus Inc., according to an announcement today from Dean Sbragia, president and CEO of Med-Fit Systems, Fallbrook, CA. The purchase price was not announced.
"We are extremely pleased to have reached agreements with Nautilus Inc. to acquire the Nautilus commercial products manufacturing and intellectual property," Sbragia says. "We have plans to aggressively expand upon this iconic brand, enhance the facilities in Virginia and provide our customers with exemplary educational and customer service support."
Sbragia founded Med-Fit Systems Inc., a 23-year-old physical therapy and senior care products provider.
"Our experience with Nautilus products in the rehab, senior and athletic training markets has convinced us of the superior design, safety and function of the machines," Sbragia says. "We have over 1,000 installations in the rehab and geriatric communities and have achieved documented positive results with optimum user safety."
The Nautilus ONE dial technology has become the standard among the new exerciser, geriatric and rehab user, Sbragia says. He adds that the ability to change weights in as little as one pound increments from the exercise position is a benefit that can be translated into increased memberships for facilities looking to cater to growing demographics, such as seniors, new exercisers and women.
Med-Fit Systems has established an interactive Web-based showroom, allowing potential customers to "try" the equipment at their convenience without leaving their facilities.
"This technology has been a real boon to our rehabilitation business," Sbragia says. "Not only can we demonstrate machine function, use and precautions, but we have a platform for focus group and customer integration, which allows us to respond quickly to customer demands and needs."
The purchase also includes the Nautilus manufacturing plant in Independence, VA.
The plant is in Grayson County, and the county board offered Med-Fit a low-interest loan in the amount of $1.9 million through the Virginia Small Business Financing Authority for the purchase of the main manufacturing campus. It secured $250,000 in Tobacco Region Opportunity Fund grants from the Virginia Tobacco Indemnification Commission and provided various forms of technical and professional support, according to Med-Fit.
Med-Fit Systems will host a meet and greet on March 11-12 in San Diego to unveil the new Nautilus commercial product plans and discuss the future of the brand.

In the midst of a streak of bad luck, it might take longer to see the silver lining - but it's there.
It's taken me a few days to write this – maybe because I'm a little embarrassed (ok, very embarrassed); or maybe it's because I'm afraid of letting you in on a little secret (I'm not perfect) – whatever the case, it's time to come clean.
Picture it: Thursday evening around 7 p.m. I just finished teaching Body Pump at Gold's Gym. When I got in my car (a Honda Odyssey), I noticed a text message from my husband, asking me to pick up a prescription for him and milk for our girls. I headed to CVS with a mission in mind – quickly get the items and get home without anyone realizing how much I stunk.
When I got to the pharmacy counter, I was informed that they couldn't give me the prescription because I didn't have my husband's insurance card. Yes, I realize policy is policy…but the matter still frustrated me to no end. In a huff of irritation, I headed to the front counter to purchase the milk and a bag of Jelly Bellys (for me, of course). When I went to pay the cashier, I realized that I didn't have my bank debit card…what?
My debit card was gone.
As in, not in my wallet.
I freaked – to say the least – and then stormed out of the pharmacy empty handed in a whirlwind of aggravation, worry, anger and distress. Once in the driver's seat, I screamed at the top of my lungs…words that I really can't put here, but you get the picture. My bank account was drained – I was sure of that – and when I got home the disappointment of my husband would surely have me crying for days. I wracked my brain. When was the last time I had seen my debit card? Gettysburg – yes, a restaurant in Gettysburg; that's where it must be.
I buckled my seatbelt, vowing to call the restaurant ASAP….I put the van in reverse with my mind in a haze; anger and anxiety were bubbling just below the surface. Seconds later I heard the sound of Odyssey on Denali – yep, I backed up right into a Denali parked behind me. My stomach sunk to the floor, shock and disillusionment overwhelmed me. I parked the car and as I emerged, a man who had seen the entire incident take place said, "Ma'am, are you ok?"
I sunk to the ground.
Right there in the middle of the CVS parking lot, I sat cross-legged, my head in my hands, and cried – wailed, actually. The man approached again.
"Ma'am, are you ok?"
I can't imagine what this man saw as he looked at me. A 30-something-year-old woman, dressed in sweaty workout garb, sitting in the middle of a car-stained parking lot having a mental breakdown.
I couldn't respond.
The man, this stranger, who had no reason to stay any longer – actually went into the store and found the girl who had driven the Denali to CVS. As she crossed the parking lot, I realized I knew her; she had graduated a year after me. After assessing the damage to my van (yes, there was some) and the scuff to the Denali, we exchanged the appropriate information. The man – the Good Samaritan – made sure one last time that I was ok. In the haze of everything, I never asked his name.
I never got a chance to properly say thank you.
As I think back on that evening, I am struck by how a horrible situation can have a clear silver lining – if you remember to look for it. I am in awe of the man who took the time to make sure I was ok. I am humbled by the high school friend who actually consoled me after hitting her parked car, even though we haven't talked in years. I am filled with gratitude for the waitress who found my debit card and locked it up safely (without any additional charges) until I picked it up Friday evening.
Yes, my friends, there is a silver lining. In the midst of a streak of bad luck, it just might take longer to see it…but it's there.

Hot Harry in the sky
Hot Harry failed his pilot's theory test. So apparently he's getting extra lessons. Check him out, yesterday at the airfield looking relaxed and exuberant before taking to the skies. Hot Harry is hoping to fly helicopters in Afghanistan once his training is complete. Hot Harry is also getting schooled in racial awareness after his recent gaffes were made public.
It's been reported that he's attending diversity classes which is the official way of saying – next time don't let those multicoloured people hear you when you slag them.
It's much easier to forgive him when's in uniform with those straps wrapped around his royal business, non?

Anna Keenlyside - Teaching, General Teaching Projects in Peru
I spent three months in Peru with Projects Abroad, and loved every minute of the experience! I was a volunteer on the teaching programme in a secondary school, but because my placement ran into the Christmas holidays I also helped on two dental health campaigns and taught at a summer school for adults. I lived with a family in Urubamba, a small village in the centre of the Sacred Valley where the Projects Abroad office is based and where volunteers gathered in the afternoons and evenings.
Having recently graduated from university, I was keen to explore a different way of life and to explore the Peruvian culture as best as I could. My knowledge of Spanish before leaving England was limited, but I soon picked up words and phrases from my family and the children at school. Spanish is not a difficult language to master, and because the Peruvians speak fairly slowly and clearly, spending time in Peru is the perfect opportunity to learn the language without necessarily needing formal lessons. Being able to speak Spanish certainly helped me to become part of the family, and I especially enjoyed spending time with the children who appreciated having a volunteer to play with!
I taught at the Agropecuario school in Urubamba, only a short walk from my host family which was fortunate as lessons started promptly at 8am. I mainly taught alongside the school's only English teacher who was somewhat old-fashioned in his approach to lessons! The staff in the Projects Abroad office encouraged us to prepare original materials for classes and I found this helped vary the lessons and class sizes of around 40 pupils didn't particularly help matters. The arrival of Christmas meant exams for all classes and the volunteers were alarmed at the levels of cheating amongst the pupils and this was frustrating for all of us.
Schools in Peru take a 3-month break for Christmas but there were plenty of other projects for the volunteers to get involved with. This included two dental health campaigns where we visited small villages to clean the children's teeth and provide them with free toothbrushes. As there were very few volunteers over Christmas, we had lots of fun together and made the most of our free time! Five of us took the opportunity to do the four-day Inca Trail, which was definitely the highlight of my trip. Waking up at 4am on the last day to reach Machu Pichu at sunrise and before the tourists was simply breathtaking.
We also visited the vast and colourful Christmas Eve market in Cusco, bartering for presents for our host families. There were plenty of celebrations in Urubamba and we partied the arrival of 2005 in the main plaza in traditional Peruvian style: dressed in yellow and toasting the new year with 12 grapes - one for each lucky month of 2005.
In January, teaching resumed in Cusco where I had a much more manageable class of six adults, all teachers or prospective teachers wanting to improve their English. Our summer school proved very popular, and the adults showed a real keenness to improve. In my last lesson, the students held a party for my departure and were genuinely grateful for the lessons. It was time for my travels around South America to commence!
From Cusco, I travelled south to Peru's second busiest city, Arequipa and the surrounding Colca Canyon. The views were spectacular and a trip to see the condors in their natural environment is a must! We found time to visit a Peruvian seaside resort of Mejia, off the main tourist trail, and then headed to Lake Titicacca in Bolivia via Puno and the floating islands. Travelling in Peru and Bolivia brought never a dull moment, and even the lengthy bus journeys proved memorable.
My three months with Projects Abroad ended on a high note and I then spent a further month travelling in Argentina. The air-conditioned busses and up-market hostels I met as I travelled south through Patagonia felt a million miles away from what I had experienced in Peru, but I have extremely fond memories of the people and places I encountered in Peru. Five months on, I have planned a reunion with some of the other volunteers I met through Projects Abroad and will no doubt relive my Peruvian tales for many years to come.

A home visit by a spa expert can provide ultimate pampering in today's fast-paced world, and BeautiControl features state-of-the-art products and services in the comfort of your own surroundings. Who are the experts in this burgeoning field?
Splash Magazines found Yahrasiel Colbert, a Beverly Hills-based expert who makes skincare and body care simple and easy without leaving your own home. "We transform any living room, office, or school into a spa," says Colbert. "We literally bring the spa anywhere!"
Yahrasiel has been featured in numerous luxury suites and has a high-profile clientele who span the greater Los Angeles area. Splash Magazine Los Angeles was able to sit down with her to discuss how she formed her successful, independently operated home spa business through BeautiControl, one of the hottest names in personalized skin care.
Splash: What is it about BeautiControl that makes it so popular, and why did you choose this line to represent?
Yahrasiel: I love working with BeautiControl for so many reasons. The first reason is the integrity and quality of the products…they really sell themselves. Here's are a couple of examples of what clients tell me on a regular basis:
"Yahrasiel gave me the Extreme Instant Face Lift on one side of my face. I couldn't believe the difference after 30 minutes. I've been on a skin care regiment my whole life. I did not think it was going to work so fast. I'm a client for life."
Dorothy A. Davis
My face used to feel rough before I used the BeautiControl Spa Facial products. The night creme feels like silk. I had large pores and oily skin. Now, my face is smooth and soft. My pores have gotten so much smaller thanks to the AHA toner, resurfacing peel and microdermabrasion. The Detox refreshing mist and tablets really help relax after a stressful day.
LaToya Brassell
"When I realized I could work my own hours and make a very nice living while standing behind products that people love," said Yahrasiel, "it was an easy choice to get involved on a professional level."
So Splash Magazine sat down and took a look at the products, and here's what we found:
BeautiControl is the #1 Premium Spa Brand, an internationally recognized beauty company offering personalized service, scientifically advanced skin care and premium quality cosmetics.
As the first direct sales company to bring the Spa experience into the home, BeautiControl specializes in innovative, high-quality skincare, anti-aging and color cosmetics products, featured through an in-home Spa experience.
BeautiControl is located throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico, providing premium products and services, unforgettable experiences and an opportunity to change women's lives. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tupperware Brands, founded in 1946.
New York Fashion Week's Style 360 shows featured BeautiControl makeup.
For over 30 years, BeautiControl and its almost 100,000 Consultants have chosen to conduct their business with integrity, honesty, humility and honor and live each day empowering women to dream with confidence.
"It's also a great family to be a part of," continued Yahrasiel. When new Consultants join my team, it's so encouraging to help them train and work with them as they learn the strategies of making some extra money. It's great to help them enjoy the benefits of staying home with their kids, being recognized for doing a good job, having more flexibility in their lives, or just having some fun and meeting new people.
Part of her team's success with BeautiControl points back to Yahrasiel's impressive history in teaching and mentorship. She earned a Bachelors of Science in Health and Physical Education, and continued on to receive a Masters of Education in Physical Education, a Masters of Education in Education Leadership, and a Specialist Degree in Educational Leadership.
It's clear that Yahrasiel's focus is helping people reach their dreams through BeautiControl. She has contributed to the amazing brand by bringing the BeautiControl spa experience to the 2011 Soul Train Music Awards, the 2012 Academy Awards, the Kentucky Derby, Terrence Howard's Rally for Kids with Cancer, as a Sponsor for the Trumpet Awards, and to the Primetime Emmy's.
"Four years ago, I started with the business because I loved the products. I was also looking for more flexibility and a little extra cash each month. BeautiControl helped put more money in my pocket. Once I started holding spas, I realized how simple it was and how much money I could make. Soon, I started to love the limitless opportunities that BeautiControl offered. I decided to resign from 12 years of teaching to focus on BeautiControl, and I haven't looked back since."
"With the BeautiControl Career opportunity, I can make a great income and still work around my schedule," Yahrasiel continued. "I have the opportunity to earn new cars, beautiful jewelry and trips around the world. BeautiControl has changed my life, and it can change yours too."
"I love hearing this kind of victory from the Consultants on my team:"
"Today, my son had a fever. I didn't need to call the boss and tell him/her that I won't be coming in because I'm the boss. I didn't have to figure out if I had enough vacation time because my time is my time. And I don't have to worry about how to afford this day off because I'm going to get on the phone and sell a product that is part of a line that's been named one of America's Best Brands. And within three months, even though I will follow up with my client, she may call me because what she uses works, and she can't go a day without it. That's why I sell Beauticontrol..."
Amanda Brooks
Splash Magazine: How does one get started?
Yahrasiel: The business kit is $125. You get over $400 in products with it plus business tools. Training is included and is ongoing as well. I think one of the best things about this business is that we never walk alone. I pride myself on helping women reach their personal dreams and goals through our brand.

All the best,
A blog by one of the volunteer reviewers for Geocaching.com. It's about geocaching and the review process -- what it takes to get your new caches listed on the world's most popular geocaching web site. ©Copyright 2012 by K.Braband. All rights reserved
Hi Ken!
I want to thank you personally for all of the hard work and support you have done as a reviewer for us here in Iowa for all of these years.
I have know and worked with you for the 10+ years I have been geocaching and it has been a blessing to have you as our reviewer. You have always been very fair and accommodating with our caches, as well as working with us to fix things to get our caches placed.
I know whoever Groundspeak gets to replace you will do a good job, but there isn't an easy way to replace you and all of years of experience working with all of us. I wish you the very best of luck in your next adventures, which I hope some of them bring you to your "second home" here in Iowa.
All the best!
Tim Stewart "The Weasel"
I want to thank you for your service!
Just a word of thanks for all the time and effort spent to help make me and all my kids and grandkids be able to enjoy caching. I remember when Josiah (Joey17) found out you were going to be at an event we were going to. All he could think about was "meeting the Admin and asking him some questions." You took the time to shake his hand and answer his questions and treated him as an adult(he was 9). It was the highlight of his weekend!!
We will miss your picture on the cache page but you will always be remembered. Hats off to you, Ken!! Thank you very much. Will be seeing you, I'm sure, at an event.
Thank you for all your years as reviewer. I am sure it has been quite a challenge at times, but we appreciate all you have done to keep the game going. I have only met you once at the admin appreciation luncheon, but have spoke to you many times when placing caches. Good luck with all your future ventures, and hopefully we will meet again out on the geocaching trail or at an event.
Mark & Sue aka Mon"rose"
Thanks for everything you have done for geocaching in Iowa. Best wishes on your future endeavors.
Hi Ken,
I want to Thank You for all of the years that you have been the Iowa Geocaching reviewer!
You have always 'been there' for me.
Answering my questions and so much more.
I hope to meet up with you again, whether in be on the trail or in the river.
You have seen Geocaching from its conception to what it currently is.
The knowledge that you have and share is remarkable!
Best Regards,
Jeff Goodson
It has been a real pleasure having you as our Admin. I have been caching for just short of 10 years, so I guess we've been in this together pretty much most of the time. Take care and thanks!
aka - Chad Chapman

California fire grows, no major vineyards at risk
SAN FRANCISCO — A raging wildfire in rural Northern California has spread over 5 square miles and forced the evacuation of 200 homes in Napa County. But it was not threatening any major vineyards on Wednesday, a fire official and a spokeswoman for a vintners association said.
More than 1,000 firefighters were hoping to get a better handle on the Butts Fire in remote Pope Valley.
Crews made progress overnight Tuesday in controlling the blaze that was 30 percent contained, said Daniel Berlant, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
The fire has damaged one home and four outbuildings. In addition to the mandatory evacuations, another 180 homes were threatened.
No injuries have been reported. The cause of the fire was unknown.
"The temperatures went down, and the humidity went up — and that really helped slow down this fire," Berlant said.
State fire Deputy Chief Gabrielle Avina said crews were also aided by lighter winds overnight and hoped those conditions would hold throughout the day.
The fast-moving blaze began Tuesday afternoon in Napa County and within hours covered 600 acres and then spiked to 2,700 acres by late evening as it spread northeast into neighboring Lake County. State firefighters and crews from Napa, Lake and Solano counties spent the day working in 90-degree weather, and similar temperatures were expected Wednesday.
"This fire exploded because the conditions are so dry all across California," Berlant said. "We were definitely surprised by this one."
State fire spokeswoman State McCambridge said Wednesday that the fire is not affecting the lucrative Napa Valley vineyards. Pope Valley is about 20 miles north of Napa Valley.
Cate Conniff, a spokeswoman for the Napa Valley Vintners, a nonprofit trade association, agreed. "It has not come anywhere close to what we consider Napa Valley wineries. It is moving in the opposite direction, and it continues to move that way. We're keeping an eye out on it," Conniff said
Gov. Jerry Brown said Wednesday that he has secured federal funds to help fire departments absorb some of the cost of fighting the fire.
Elsewhere in California, firefighters were surrounding a blaze in Shasta-Trinity National Forest that forced the evacuation of about 15 homes. Forest spokeswoman Andrea Capps said the fire has burned through 35 acres since it started Tuesday and was 70 percent contained.
