Ok, so I'm a Type 1 diabetic that loves coffee. I've given it up in the past and am considering doing so again, however there are days that I find it hard to be productive without it. I'm hoping that doing so will help me sleep better and have better cortisol control. I've also heard that it can cause gut issues and glucose metabolism issues in Diabetics. I always seem to pick up some other vice like chewing gum when I do so. So should I give up coffee?
NO! Unless it is causing you particular problems (like for some people the half-life of caffeine in the body is longer for others and it causes sleep disturbances) I would say keep it in your diet. It has magnesium and is protective against heavy metals, etc. And besides it just tastes good. Unfortunately, I am particularly sensitive to caffeine and so have to severely limit my intake. If that's not the case with you, then I say "ENJOY!". |
It's worth giving it a shot. Just do the 30 day thing and reintroduce. I did it and found out pretty quick that coffee at times exacerbates fatigue. If I drink a cup on a good day, it's not really a problem. But on a bad day, man it's mean to me. It can be harsh on your adrenals and harsh on your thyroids. If you have digestive problem, it can exacerbate them. Try it and tell us how it went. |
I've given up caffeinated coffee, mostly. I used to slug back cups and cups of coffees and redeyes (coffee with a shot of espresso). I figured it couldn't be helping me with my inability to get to sleep at a reasonable time. Also thought I had some cortisol issues. I gradually switched to teas and decafs. Then for a while I would only drink 99.9% decaf coffee and tea I had brewed to be decaffeinated (basically do a 30 second brew, throw out the water, and brew it again. The first 30 seconds extracts most of the caffeine). I felt a lot better and got a lot better sleep, but you'll still have to pry my decaf out of my cold, dead hands. I fully admit to making a half-caf when I get to work if I've really had a rough night, which happens occasionally with two very young kids at home :) |
Absolutely not. http://nephropal.blogspot.com/2009/10/beans-coffe-and-cacao.html Coffee and cacao are one of man's best natural substances to limit inflammation in the body. |

Put Your Feet First When Running to Avoid Heel Pain
Silver Cross Hospital offers a free program and screenings in November so you can learn more about treatment for plantar fasciitis.
Heel pain affects nearly 2 million Americans each year and can be responsible for mild discomfort or even debilitating pain.
The most common type of heel and foot pain among long distance runners and athletes is plantar fasciitis. This condition is characterized by painful inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament which runs along the bottom of the foot.
A sponsored article by Silver Cross Hospital.
The plantar fascia ligament is made of fibrous bands of tissue and runs between the heel bone and toes stretching with every step. Inflammation develops when tears occur in the tissue. The most common complaint from plantar fasciitis is a burning, stabbing, or aching pain in the heel of the foot.
"Most sufferers will be able to feel it in the morning because the fascia ligament tightens up during the night while we sleep, causing pain to diminish," says Dr. Paul Kirchner, podiatrist on staff at Silver Cross Hospital. "However, when we climb out of bed and place pressure on the ligament, it becomes taut and pain is particularly severe."
Pain usually decreases as the tissue warms up, but may easily return again after a strenuous training session and after long periods of inactivity, such as sitting down to watch television.
Among the most popular factors that contribute to plantar fasciitis is wearing incorrect shoes. In many cases, shoes either do not fit properly, or provide inadequate support or cushioning. While running or exercising in improper shoes, weight distribution becomes impaired, and significantly stress can be added to the plantar fascia ligament.
"In most cases, plantar fasciitis does not require surgery or invasive procedures to stop pain and reverse damage," Kirchner said. "Conservative treatments including medications such as NSAIDs and corticosteriods or special splints are usually all that is required. However, every person's body responds to plantar fasciitis treatment differently and recovery times may vary."
Free Program and Screening
To learn more about the latest treatment options for plantar fasciitis, join Dr. Paul Kirchner, podiatrist, on Wednesday, Nov. 7, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Silver Cross Hospital Conference Center, Pavilion A, 1890 Silver Cross Blvd., New Lenox. Register to attend this free program—Feet First: Running & The Injured Athlete online or by calling 1-888-660-HEAL (4325).
In addition, The Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago at Silver Cross will offer free Heel and Foot Screenings Wednesday, Nov. 14 in the Silver Cross Professional Building at 250 Maple St. (Route 3) in New Lenox. Participants will receive a home exercise program and tips for preventing plantar fasciitis. Call 815-463-6123 for an appointment.

as a podiatrist i can tell you that i see many cases of plantar fasciitis in clinic and during the following months this will increase. Typically post christmas and new years people start to take up running to lose weight and get into shape. A sudden increase in activity can put tremendous strain on the plantar fascia, this coupled with poor warm and warm down routines and running in sports shoes that were not designed for running can lead to plantar fasciitis. A good resource for free foot care information that i often tell my patients about is http://www.drfoot.co.uk

This is some great information on heel pain. Do you know of a good place to get heel pain relieved. Are foot orthotics the best option?

GS 2200 reception
6 posts
• Page 1 of 1
GS 2200 receptionI am in Franklin, TN 37064. I just purchased and installed a gs 2200 and cant pull in channels 5 and 17. 5 is almost there, but blocky and pixelated with no audio. Channel 17 is just snow. The antenna is about 20' up. The cable run is about 50' with about 3 splitters. Do I need a another preamp or have a made a poor choice of antenna? Thank you
Re: GS 2200 receptionGood morning Jlweber -
The problem is that you do not have line of sight (LOS) toward all of your TV stations. There must be a ridge between you and the TV stations preventing your from receiving a strong consistent signal. 1 Edge and 2 Edge signals are reflected off of the ground or atmosphere getting to you so they will be marginal at times and weather dependent. Normal TV reception is based on the TV antenna being at least 30 feet high so try raising your antenna. Also by-pass your splitters and go from the power injector TV out of the GS-2200 directly to one TV set to see if you receive a stronger/better signal. If your TV reception improves then you can add a Winegard HDA-100 distribution amplifier between the power injector and your splitter(s) to over come the splitter losses. Going to a larger antenna may not help either. Raising your antenna and even relocating it to another location on the house may give you a stronger signal.
Re: GS 2200 receptionThanks for the response. I do know that disconnecting the power injector degrades the signal. I also tried hooking up another tv directly to the antenna. Reception was improved, but still blocky with no audio on channel 5. 17 was decent, but occasionally cutout. So that tells me that part of my issue is the length of the cable run, correct?
I'm at about 20 feet now. Not sure I can get it as high as 30', but will give it a try. Thank you
Re: GS 2200 receptionYou have a low-gain VHF antenna causing you problems with ch 5. You have a very weak signal on ch 17 that will be challenging. None of your channels are line-of-sight. All of your channels are fairly weak and you could have intermittent issues with rain.
You need to use an antenna with a much higher RF gain than your MS-2200. I suggest something like the HD 7084P or HD-7082P. Channel 5 is forcing the use of a large antenna. Most low-band VHF stations were moved up to UHF, thus allowing for much smaller antennas. Stations that were in the hi-band VHF (7-13) could stay (though not all did) on those frequencies and use a smaller (narrower) VHF antenna. Lucky you. The preamp can be any AP series that has both VHF and UHF capability. I suggest any of the AP-8000 series. 50 feet of RG-6 cable has about 4 dB of loss. Depending on your configuration of cables and splitters, you may handle lower gain units OK. You should not be in any danger of overloading even the hi-gain units because you are in a low power location.
Re: GS 2200 receptionAlmost there!
I stuck my antenna into my chimney....not permenantly ..... just to see if height made a difference. I now get channel 17. Channel 5 is starting to come into view....very blocky and no audio. I'm thinking alittle higher with a preamp should do it. So here is my latest question. My preferred option is to mount it on the gable. I already have a j-mount that I intended for attachment to my satellite dish. Can I add your 60" extension to the J-mount and still have enough stability to mount it on the gable? As you know, the antenna weighs very little. Thanks for your help! jw
Re: GS 2200 receptionAdding a TB-0005 5'mast to a "J" will not work. It is not the weight of the antenna but the wind loading of the antenna on the small "J" mount base (foot). If you wish to use a gable mount use the Winegard SW-0012 with two TB-0005 5' masts. Space the brackets approximately 24" apart and that would give you about 8' of height above your roof.

I've heard it said that Paul wrote other letters that didn't make it into the Bible, including at least one more letter to the church at Corinth, and a letter to the church at Laodicea. What is the source for these claims, and what might have happened to these letters?
Paul certainly wrote other letters, but they were either lost or were not theological. For example, 1 Corinthians 16:3: Regarding one more letter to Corinth, that is the implication in 1 Corinthians 5:9 when he refers to an earlier letter: Finally, it is worth noting that all genuine letters by Paul could be identified by people at the time as he ended them in his own writing (rather than dictating). 2 Thessalonians 3:17 says: |

Thanks to films like Superbad and Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist, the teen comedy is going back to the roots of John Hughes by going the route of Judd Apatow. The new teen comedy High School is looking to be the film that manages to do both instead of one or the other. Basically a film for anyone who spent the better part of their high school days being high on drugs, High School actually manages to have a lot of laughs along the way.

Cat B15 Android phone aims to be forklift-tough
BARCELONA, Spain--Cat (yes, the same Cat of industrial forklifts, tractors, and mining equipment) has announced its latest rugged smartphone, the Cat B15.
Rocking Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, a grooved rubber back, and hard angles, the Cat B15 is aimed for construction and industrial workers. Made of hardened rubber and aluminum, I really liked the Cat B15's shape and in-hand feel even in my bare hands. It's thick and durable, and raised yellow buttons along the side and top are both tactile and visible.
Dust flaps around the headset jack and charging port help keep it waterproof … Read more

inGreat video, but times are different now as everything we have known is turned upside down. But thank you for the delightful Shirley Temple.
Happy Hannukah, MJ & David. EVERYONE who believes in Yahweh should celebrate with the Jews — HANNUKAH.
Hanukkah reminds us that with Yahweh's help, victory over evil is assured and no miracle is impossible. Modern Israel and the survival of the Jewish people against all odds are proof of that.
To dwell on this aspect alone springs hope and happiness.

Here comes nationalized gambling
You probably haven't heard much about this, but the same Obama Justice Department that is pushing to deny states the right to define marriage (by opposing the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act) is now pushing to diminish the ability of states to regulate gambling.
In years past, Congress took action to stop the spread of gambling across state lines with legislation such as the Wire Act and the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. All along, Congress' position has been clear and consistent that it opposes allowing technology to be used to circumvent individual state gambling laws.
Enter the Obama Justice Department, which this past December quietly issued a decision interpreting these acts of Congress "not" to apply to anything other than sports betting.
Aside from undermining the long established will of Congress, the practical problem is that this decision would allow any form of gambling that is legal in any state to be made available on the Internet and circumvent the gambling laws of others states. The net effect is that any state could effectively legalize virtually any form of gambling for the entire country, whether we like it or not.
Ready or not, nationalized gambling here we come. read more »

Anne Hyslop at the New America Foundation has pointed out the new partisan tone of debate that has emerged around the Common Core Standards. Hyslop makes clear that the Common Core state initiative is just that—a state led initiative. While the Obama Administration has indeed supported Common Core and has tied its Race to the Top Grant money to college- and career-ready standards in states, Hyslop believes this is hardly enough to justify right-wing attacks on Common Core.
While many of the attacks have come from the usual suspects of conservative media, some of the critiques have come from more publicly recognized sources. The Republican National Committee recently adopted an anti-Common Core resolution, and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Ia) is calling for the federal government to eliminate all Department of Education funding that supports or prioritizes the Common Core.
Hyslop does not buy these arguments; however, she does admit that a possible upcoming law might add more credence to conservative arguments against Common Core:
The problem may be about to get worse. As noted in our Key Questions on the Obama Administration's 2014 Education Budget Request, federal funding for the assessment consortia is set to expire before the tests are fully launched. To provide continued support, President Obama's latest budget includes a $9 million competitive grant initiative that could finance some of their ongoing work. The other $380 million of the "Assessing Achievement" program would provide states with formula grants for their current assessment programs, although leftover funds could go toward Common Core implementation.
However, a significant change would occur in fiscal year 2015: Assessing Achievement formula funding would be available "only to States that have adopted college- and career-ready standards that are common to a significant number of States" (emphasis added). While Race to the Top included a similar requirement, that program was a competition, where states could opt-out. NCLB waivers also require states to adopt college- and career-ready standards, but they do not have to be common ones. The Assessing Achievement program would mark the first time federal formula funding – typically available to all states – required adoption of common standards. If enacted, this requirement will undoubtedly add fuel to the "Obamacore" fire.
Hyslop concludes:
The important difference between the practical (those… who are concerned about successful Common Core implementation) and political (conservatives who see Common Core as a big-government move) critiques is that states deciding to use the ACT system are not necessarily backing away from their commitment to the Common Core altogether. Yes, the assessment consortia should do as much as possible to allay the concerns of wavering states. And yes, policymakers and stakeholders should closely monitor all of the emerging for-profit and non-profit ventures to ensure their assessments, curricula, textbooks, and other resources accurately reflect the new standards. But in the end, any damage done to the Common Core from these pragmatic objections to the consortia is far less severe than what would happen in the unlikely, but not out of the question, case that "Obamacore" goes mainstream. Common Core supporters would do well to distinguish between the two.

The Pgp-Glo™ Assay Systems provide the necessary reagents for performing luminescent P-glycoprotein (Pgp) ATPase assays. The Pgp-Glo™ Assay detects the effects of compounds on recombinant human Pgp in a cell membrane fraction. The assay relies on the ATP dependence of the light-generating reaction of firefly luciferase. ATP is first incubated with Pgp, then the Pgp ATPase reaction is stopped, and the remaining unmetabolized ATP is detected as a luciferase-generated luminescent signal.

High school boys basketball: Hot start propels Madison over South
Any PAC coach would be happy to see his team to get off to a good start in a road conference game. Spot his team an early lead, and you can be sure that he will gladly take it.
Madison coach Pat Moran found himself in that situation, as his Blue Streaks jumped out to a 16-0 lead Friday night at South. Stephon Ortiz went on to score 24 points, and Brett Monty backed him up with 20 more, and Madison never trailed en route to a 80-70 triumph.
Moran was happy with the early run, but was equally happy that South's dangerous Harry Chakerelis sat out the first quarter.
"It was big," Moran said regarding the early flurry. "I'm not gonna lie to you. Seeing Harry not come out for the introductions of the starting fives put a little smile on my face. You saw in the second half once he got things going that he was a tough matchup for us. Last time they destroyed us on the glass. This time we competed a lot harder and got some hands on the ball where we didn't last time."
Chakerelis made up for lost time, and ended up leading the Rebels with 23 points, 18 of those in the second half. South began the second half down by 20, but behind Chakerelis, Kareem Hunt (15 points, 16 rebounds), and Jeff Nevulis (10 points), the Rebels cut their deficit down to 10 near the end of the third quarter. Unfortunately for the Rebels, the early-game run loomed too large.
"You can't get in a hole like that against a team like Madison," South coach Roy Infalvi said. "Coach Moran does a great a job over there, and to get behind 16-0 against a team like that is too hard a hole to climb out of. We did some nice things in the second half, but that was too big of a hole to get into."
Ortiz scored eight points in the early going, and the score was 13-0 Madison when Infalvi called timeout with 4:01 to play in the opening quarter. Hunt tried to rally the Rebels, corralling six first-quarter rebounds, and South closed the quarter on a 7-2 run. The Madison lead reached 20 at 31-11 on a 3-pointer by Ortiz at the 4:41 mark of the second period, and six different Blue Streaks scored at least once as the visitors went into the locker room ahead, 40-20.
South (2-8, 1-5) picked up the intensity on defense in the second half, and forced five Madison turnovers while outscoring the Blue Streaks by eight in the third quarter. Hunt, Chakerelis and Nevulis combined for all 20 South points in that frame.
Madison responded, though, pushing the lead back out to 20 at 69-49 with 4:40 remaining on a 3 by Brandon Smith. The Blue Streaks hit three triples and were 7 of 10 from the line in the fourth to keep the Rebels at bay, despite 11 fourth-quarter points from Chakerelis.
"I think we hit some big shots," Moran said. "(Aaron) Petrucelli hit a couple big ones for us. We have a couple solid scorers in Monty and Stephon, and I thought John Dahlhausen played his best game tonight. We hit some big shots to give us some breathing room, but we knew they weren't going to give up. That's just South athletics. They have that never-say-never attitude, and we gotta start having that attitude as well. This place has not been kind to us, so like I told the kids, whether it's by two, 10 or 50, a win here is a good win." Continued...
Dahlhausen had 14 points and Petrucelli had 12 for Madison (8-4, 4-3). The Blue Streaks were 25 of 48 from the field, including 10 3s, and hit 20 of 28 from the line.
"One of the major problems that we had, especially in the first half, was (that) we gave up too much penetration," Infalvi said. "They were able to either score on a layup, or kick it out for another 3. We did a little better in the second half, being more physical and cutting off lanes. Five out of the first seven possessions (during the 16-0 Madison run), we either traveled or threw the ball away. We have to protect the ball better and execute better offensively, and not try to force a pass and end up with a turnover."
South won the battle of the boards, 32-22, behind Hunt's 16 and 7 by Tony Walton. The Rebels were 28 of 63 from the field and 11 of 16 from the line, and outscored Madison, 50-40, in the second half.

I purchased an iMac 27" nearly a year ago, and I realise now after a while I needed a Macbook Pro instead.
Is there any way I can have this returned or swapped with the equivalent price Macbook Pro?
P.S I do have the Apple Care Protection Plan, if that's any help for it?
Any help would be apreciated! :)
wher'd you buy it from.
How long have you had it.
SOme places will take it back within a very short period for full refund.
Otherwise you will likely loose 200$ by selling it for oh 200$ less then what you paid for it.
then turn around and buy the laptop
Bought it from the Apple store itself. Back in August 2011 I bought it. Would I get a decent amount on eBay for it??
geeze and their probly releasing new ones soon.
Depends on the demands you needed from the computer and it's hardware.......
Yeah I know :/
The most intensive thing I do is edit my YouTube videos in Final Cut Pro X. And maybe play Portal 2! :P
But I need portability atm :/
the 27 inch has an i7 quad Sandy Bridge
4-8gbs of memory (or more)
and a 6000 Series AMD Radeon chip?
Answer yes to all that i'm guessing 1500$?
idk probly just have to go see what others are selling ur exact spec and model for.
i could imagine it will be worth over 1000$ to do the price of ALl in ones these days, Especially macs.
It is a practically spec'd out iMac with 256GB SSD and 1TB HDD and etc .. 3.01GHz i5 ..
Right now a 27 inch imac with the following spec goes for 2300$ new
2.7ghz Quad core intel i5
Mouse + keyboard
512MB Radeon 6770m..
god must i say this is a bit of a rip off for the amount of memory and size of memory on that poorely made 6770. Anyways if yours is close to that i'd say
oh wait found it, How much ram does it run 4, 8, 16? it uses the radeon 6970M?
Your spec would be 2600$ brand new so Honest to god, Try selling it for 2 Grand.
And probly should get going on that as once they release Ivy Bridge and Radeon 7000 series chips your's will loose more value, witch is sad loss for the ridiculous price paid to begin with, Still Very Nice spec for an all in one computer, hard to beat. You won't get that kind of Video performance out of any laptop especially a mac unless it's got desktop hardware in it, witch will cost a fortune. But you'll get pretty much the same CPU performance, perhaps this is what your after.
Oh and if and when you sell, DOn't run off and buy till they upgrade the line again, Their do for it, as other pc manufacturers are releasing new Intel chips and what not.
I would welcome DTM's suggestion, but since he posted a pic of dwayne johnson, I'ma caution you LOL.
If you have another computer you use for general things, why not just sell your IMac and get the cash to buy a Macbook Pro from apple or best buy? Your computers current specs are just pure amazing and could get the cash you need.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The University of Rio Grande garnered a fourth place finish in the 2012 Mid-South Conference preseason coaches' poll, which was released late last week by league officials.
The RedStorm, who finished 21-15 a year ago, received 65 total points in the balloting.
Lindsey Wilson College - last year's regular season and tournament champions - grabbed the top position with nine first-place votes and 99 points, while Campbellsville University (87) and Georgetown College (86) rounded out the top three. Campbellsville and Georgetown both received one first-place vote from the coaches, who were not allowed to vote for their own team.
Rio Grande, which won the conference's East Division last season with a 6-5 record, returns a quartet of key players from its 2011 roster, including senior outside hitter Whitney Smith (Albany, OH), a first team All-MSC honoree last season.
Smith, who was named MSC Player of the Week three times last season, finished with 486 kills, a.278 hitting percentage, 58 service aces and 432 digs. She led the league in kills, was third in aces, sixth in hitting percentage and 11th in digs.
The list of returnees for head coach Billina Donaldson also includes seniors Erin Sherman and Lauren Raines, both first team All-MSC and Academic All-MSC selections a year ago, and junior setter Kayla Landaker.
Sherman, a middle blocker from South Webster, OH, led the MSC in blocks (133), was second in kills (400) and third among the league leaders in hitting percentage (.330). Raines, a libero from Albany, OH, led the conference with 646 digs and was credited with 66 service aces.
Landaker (Coshocton, OH) piled up 1,033 assists to rank third in the MSC.
University of the Cumberlands is projected to end up in fifth after garnering 62 voting points followed by Shawnee State University with 50 voting points. MSC newcomer Cumberland University (48 voting points) is seventh, St. Catharine College (44) is eighth and UVa.-Wise (27) is ninth in the preseason poll.
Bluefield College - also playing in its first season in the MSC - is 10th with 25 voting points and University of Pikeville rounded out the list in 11th with 12 points.
The MSC will not use a divisional format this season.
The league's 2012 campaign begins later this month and concludes with the conference tournament Nov. 9-10 at the Frankfort Convention Center's Farnham Dudgeon Arena in Frankfort, Ky.

Rodney King, the man whose videotaped beating by Los Angeles police officers in 1991 sparked some of the deadliest race riots in U.S.history, was found dead on Sunday, Reuters reported. He was 47.
King was found dead in a pool and there were no signs of foul play, Reuters reported, citing California police.
King was beaten by Los Angeles Police Department officers on March 3, 1991. A bystander videotaped much of the incident from a distance.
Violence broke out after a California jury acquitted three white and one Hispanic Los Angeles police officers in his beating.
The riots that erupted on April 29, 1992, were among the most lethal in U.S. history. By the time order was restored, 53 people had died, nearly 3,000 people were injured and thousands of businesses were damaged or destroyed.
Nearly a year later, a federal jury convicted two of the police officers of a federal charge of violating King's civil rights and sentenced them to 30 months in prison. Two other officers were acquitted. King eventually received a $3.8 million settlement from the city, and the case led to sweeping changes in LAPD.
King had recently been promoting his just-published memoir, "The Riot Within: My Journey From Rebellion to Redemption."
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
Rodney King's fiancée is telling friends Rodney had been drinking all day Saturday ... and had smoked weed in the hours leading up to his death ... sources close to King tell TMZ.
According to our sources, King's fiancée, Cynthia Kelley, is telling friends King was at the house all day drinking, and he smoked marijuana at some point, before she went to bed at 2:00 AM.
We're told Kelley says she next saw King at around 5:00 AM when she was awoken by him screaming in the backyard. Our sources say Kelley found King naked, banging on the glass, and she called out to him, "What's wrong, Rodney?"
Kelley is telling friends she then went to grab her phone when she heard a big splash. She then went to the backyard and discovered him in the bottom of the pool and called police.
Paramedics attempted to revive King, but were unsuccessful.

Not far from Dean Gordon's office in the Center for Public Safety of Surry Community College is a classroom recently dedicated in memory of Sgt. Greg Martin, a policeman killed during a traffic stop.
From now on, a sign outside that classroom bearing Martin's name will be a constant reminder of the need for safety in the sometimes-dangerous law enforcement world. And that has been a goal throughout the career of Dean Gordon, a man ultimately responsible for ensuring officer trainees go into the field properly prepared.
Although Gordon, who will retire on June 30, has spent the past two decades in an educational capacity, including his present post as SCC director of public safety training, he knows the risks firsthand.
"I've been cut, I've been shot at, been in fights — a little bit of everything else that officers do," the former member of several area law enforcement agencies said during an interview last week at the Center for Public Safety.
It's a modern training facility that opened on Jan. 7 in the sprawling Surry County Human Services Center on State Street in Mount Airy, where emergency medical and fire instruction is conducted along with Basic Law Enforcement Training (BLET).
"Over 750 (students) have been through since I've been here," Gordon said of those completing the BLET program. He's also administered in-service training for many more officers already on the job in Surry, Stokes and Yadkin counties, including with the N.C. Highway Patrol.
But the mission is the same with all the training. That is making sure dedicated men and women will be ready for whatever they might face on the job and won't become one of the statistics, which show an average of 154 officers dying in the line of duty each year over the past decade.
Greg Martin, a member of the Jonesville Police Department and earlier the Mount Airy Police Department, was gunned down on the side of Interstate 77 in October 1996, and is the last area officer killed in action. He had completed local BLET training in the early 1990s and to date is the only program graduate to die in the line of duty.
Gordon has worked hard to keep others from suffering the same fate, through SCC's extensive training program that requires a total of 668 hours of instruction (44 more than the state requires) in areas including vehicle stops, firearms and others.
"That's why we harp so much on safety," he said of the potential dangers.
Evolving Profession
Training wasn't exactly a priority when Gordon broke into law enforcement in the early 1980s. In fact, working officers had to use vacation time when taking classes to brush up on their skills. This lack of emphasis on training could be related to the fact that between 1963 and 1971, five officers in Surry died in shootings — including three in Pilot Mountain alone.
Gordon, 60, who was born in April 1953 and grew up about halfway between Pilot Mountain and Pinnacle, traces his interest in a public service career to his first job, as a seasonal employee of Pilot Mountain State Park at age 15.
His grandfather, Bert Coleman, had been a caretaker on the mountain in the days before the state park was established, and the youth often stayed on the mountain with him.
Although Gordon was exposed to family members and acquaintances who had served in law enforcement, volunteer fire department and rescue squad positions, the seed didn't sprout inside him at first.
A graduate of South Stokes High School, Gordon found himself driving an oil truck in Pilot Mountain for a business he later bought.
Then in 1982, then-Pilot Mountain Police Chief Dorman Caudle asked Gordon if he would consider working part-time for him, after a couple of officers had quit.
"I wound up working for the police department and running the oil business," Gordon recalled.
He then became drawn to law enforcement as a career. "Like most people (who enter that field), no day's ever the same," Gordon explained. Many who do become officers say they want to help people, but soon realize that this involves more than a cliché.
"You really have to," Gordon said of possessing a genuine desire to aid others.
His interest in police work would require Gordon's own foray into Basic Law Enforcement Training, which led to enrolling in the program in Wilkes County since it had a more flexible schedule than the one then offered in Surry. Gordon rode to Wilkes along with others including Jeff Hall, Dennis Wilson and Kelly Hiatt, a present member of the Mount Airy Police Department.
The classes were held from 6 to 10 p.m. each Monday through Thursday and some Saturdays, a routine that would last about six months. Gordon made the trek while working full-time during the day to support his family, including wife Rebecca, to whom he has been married 37 years, and their daughter and son, both now in their 30s.
"I sympathize with these students," Gordon said of those he now encounters with similar demands, "'cause I've been there, done that."
After completing the BLET program, Gordon became a full-time police officer in 1984 and still ran his oil business for about three years afterward.
He held multiple jobs in law enforcement while advancing up the ladder. This included working a couple of years for the Walnut Cove Police Department, as a detective with the Stokes County Sheriff's Office and for the King Police Department as a first sergeant.
Gordon's dual interest as an educator also emerged around that time, including teaching probation and parole classes for the state correctional department.
Realizing the need to expand his credentials in that field, Gordon earned associate degrees in criminal justice and correctional technology over the years, along with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice from Gardner-Webb University, a master's degree in educational administration from Appalachian State University and an Ed.S. degree from Appalachian in the education/criminal justice field, which he received around 2006.
Gordon's studies at ASU required another long commute, up and down the mountain to its campus in Boone while he also worked.
During his academic pursuits, Gordon was always motivated by a quote from Marvin Hall, a SCC professor who he had for a psychology class: "The only limitation to success is the mindset to succeed."
Gordon has repeated this to his own BLET students over the years. "I've told every class that — I tell everybody I can, 'cause it's true," he said. "Make up your mind to do something, and do it."
In addition to support from his wife and other family members, Gordon credits several veteran local educators for aiding his success, including Dr. Jim Reeves, Carlos Surratt and longtime English teacher Margaret Shepherd.
His work at Surry Community College began in 1992 as an adjunct criminal justice professor.
Around 2000, Gordon was named director of the BLET program, having vowed to take advantage of any opportunity to ensure officers got the proper training.
"Dean has built that BLET program into one of, if not the best, in the state community college system," said Dr. George Sappenfield, vice president of corporate and continuing education at SCC.
"In his time here he has raised the bar many, many levels to the extent that we have a number of groups that want to come here to get their training as opposed to doing it somewhere else," Sappenfield added.
"And Dean has done this with a great deal of enthusiasm," he said of Gordon's work at the college.
About seven years ago, Gordon became director of public safety for SCC, overseeing all programs in that area including Basic Law Enforcement Training. This reflected a need to have someone oversee the growing public safety component at the school.
The local BLET grads include a good portion of the Mount Airy Police Department and Surry Sheriff's Office patrol divisions.
Over the years, Gordon has been gratified by the increased emphasis on training and a shift in how law enforcement work is viewed — as more than just grabbing a gun and badge and hitting the street.
"It's a profession," he said.
A Lasting Legacy
Gordon said the most rewarding aspect of his SCC career is "to go down the street and see one of your past students in a uniform doing their job." Another is reading in the newspaper where one of them has made a difference.
"There's many, many who have been successful," he said, mentioning Angie Key, now an agent with the State Bureau of Investigation, and Janet Pearson, superintendent at Stone Mountain State Park.
Gordon says he will be leaving his job at SCC with some degree of reluctance, but believes it's the thing to do at this point in his life.
"I turned 60 in April and I've got my 30 years in and it's time to move on," he said. Gordon mentioned that his father Glenn, who is still alive, worked into his 70s in management positions for various car dealerships.
"I'm not really sure what I plan to do" Gordon added of his post-retirement activities. Carpentry work, hiking and watching baseball and football games are among his interests. "The main thing is taking some time off for myself, with family."
No plans have been announced concerning replacing Gordon, to maintain the quality operation now in place. "I feel this will continue after I leave," he said modestly. He credits Ronald Hill, a former Mount Airy police chief who serves as law enforcement training coordinator at Center for Public Safety, and Administrative Assistant Sandy Wall for helping make it a success.
While the future might be unclear as far as his replacement and retirement plans, one thing is for sure: Dean Gordon will leave a huge void come June 30.
"And he will be sorely missed — but he leaves the tremendous legacy of an outstanding program," Dr. Sappenfield said.
"We're sorry to see him go," the college official added.
"We're also grateful for the job he did here with the program."

Javascript Slideshow?
Hello everyone! I'm working on a website for a club I'm in, and I need a Javascript Slideshow. I've provided an image below of the basic design I want. If anyone has any links to sites that could explain how to make one like this simply, or if anyone could write a JS Fiddle of it for me. That would be great. The hardest part about this is that I don't know Javascript. I've tried before, but I got lost and gave up.
How would I get jQuery to work on a website. I don't have it downloaded, so I don't know how it works.put this in your head
<script src='//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js' type='text/javascript'></script>You can use the pure Javascript image sliders:
Menucool Image Slider
or Menucool Slideshow. They aer easy to use. Just follow their instructions.

php start
Hi there
I want learn to php any useful link for beginner
I just looked briefly, but codeacademy doesn't seem to offer any PHP courses.
w3schools is not a good learning resource, especially for PHP.
You might look at Practical PHP - it's a bit outdated, but still a solid foundation.
You should definitely spend lots of time on php.net as well.
php.net indeed, especially http://www.php.net/manual/en/
I know you asked for links, but I have to say that Larry Ullman's two PHP / MySQL books are what really got me going with PHP:

Homocysteine Levels Predicts Future Diabetes After Gestational DiabetesPosted: Monday, November 28, 2005Measurement of homocysteine at six week's postpartum "would be helpful" to identify women with a previous history of pregnancy-induced diabetes at high risk for developing diabetes, study investigators conclude.
Diabetes that develops during pregnancy normally clears up after delivery. Nowadays, however, full-blown diabetes often develops in women who suffered with pregnancy-induced diabetes. Homocysteine, an amino acid, has been tied to heart disease and stroke but its relationships to and role in the onset of diabetes is unclear. To investigate, Dr. Nam H. Cho from Ajou University School of Medicine in Suwon, Korea and colleagues studied 170 women with a history of pregnancy-induced diabetes who had normal glucose tolerance or impaired glucose tolerance (a prediabetic condition) at baseline exams conducted at six weeks postpartum. Over the next 4 years, 18 women (10.6 percent) became diabetic. Of these, nine had normal glucose tolerance and nine had impaired glucose tolerance at baseline. Cho's team found that higher postpartum homocysteine levels were associated with the onset of diabetes, regardless of age, body weight, and family history of diabetes. The results hint that early postpartum "hyperhomocysteinemia" in mother who had pregnancy-induced diabetes ups the risk of diabetes later on, the authors conclude. Source: Diabetes In Control: |
