American energy independence and the continued enforcement of trade rules will go a long way toward revitalizing the U.S. manufacturing base and the economy and making America a center for innovation again, according to recommendations by the U.S. Manufacturing Council to Commerce Secretary Gary Locke.
Locke said Tuesday that many of the council's recommendations have been discussed in the White House and integrated into administration policy initiatives.
Daniel DiMicco, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Charlotte, N.C.-based Nucor Corp., along with leaders of metalworking and stamping makers, were among council members Tuesday who expressed support for the recommendations during a teleconference meeting with Locke.

driving my son to daycare today, on an 80km/h road, at an intersection (stop sign for crosswise traffic, none for me)
http://maps.google.ca/?ll=45.047542,-74 ... .23,,0,0.6
a transport is barreling east right through the intersection going quite fast with no intent of stopping.
had i paused for a split second or braked we would have been very smushed. autocross reflexes kicked in and i hammered on the gas and went into the oncoming lane, transport missed us by inches.

I've got two apps running in production on dmServer 1.0.2.SR02. To test 2.0.0.RC1, I copied all my bundles from /bundles/usr to /usr, changed the imports to the new Spring library, and ran the apps in STS. One runs and the other doesn't. It had an error:
An Import-Package could not be resolved. Caused by missing constraint in bundle <com.springsource.org.apache.xbean.spring_3.3.0>
constraint: <Import-Package: org.springframework.beans; version="[2.5.4.A,3.0.0)">
that went away when I removed the 3.3.0 version of xbean.spring and replaced it with the 3.6.0 version. The system is apparently treating 3.0.0.RELEASE as subsequent to 3.0.0. The other error is:
Uses violation: <Import-Package: org.springframework.mock.staticmock; version="0.0.0"> in bundle <[my app bundle]>
Uses conflict reported, but no conflicts detected.
. com.springsource.kernel.osgi.framework.UnableToSat isfyBundleDependenciesException: Unable to satisfy dependencies of bundle '[my app bundle]' at version '1.3.0': Cannot resolve: [my app]
Resolver report:
Uses violation: <Import-Package: org.springframework.mock.staticmock; version="0.0.0"> in bundle <[my app bundle]>
Uses conflict reported, but no conflicts detected.
What does this mean, and what the heck is "org.springframework.mock.staticmock?" I don't use anything like that in the app.
Also, RC1 is way, way, way slower starting up than 1.0.2.SR02, so no upgrades for The Kid at this point in time!
In a general sense, I really like the idea of putting the dependencies in the container rather than each of the apps, but it sure is a challenge getting stuff like Hibernate, ActiveMQ, JAXB and JAX-WS to play nicely in the same container with all their dependencies, so that sort of imposes limits.

Everybody's Kitchen Provides Hot Meals to Sandy Victims
The nomadic troupe travels in a big orange bus around the country providing food to those who need it most.
Sometimes, a hot meal can mean everything.
No one knows this better than the volunteers of Everybody's Kitchen, a kitchen on wheels that travels around the country providing hot meals to those who need it most.
Recently, the loosely-organized group has been providing meals to Hurricane Sandy victims. According to volunteer Anne Mackell, the bus made stops in Sandy-ravaged towns soon after the storm hit and has come back again three months later to address a persistent need.
The completely volunteer-sustained Everybody's Kitchen, developed in the early 1990's, has spend the last two decades responding to natural disasters, like Sandy, as well as inner city neighborhoods and impoverished communities.
The bus has made stops in towns like Union Beach and Keansburg and has also delivered food throughout the Jersey Shore, including towns in the barrier island.

Stroke Rehabilitation
Is this topic for you?
This topic covers rehabilitation after a stroke. For information on stroke itself, see the topic Reference Stroke.
What is stroke rehabilitation?
The best way to get better after a stroke is to start stroke rehabilitation ("rehab"). In stroke rehab, a team of health professionals works with you to regain skills you lost as the result of a stroke. Rehab can help you to:
- Do as well as you can and be as independent as possible.
- Learn to live with the changes to your brain and body caused by the stroke.
- Adjust to living within your home, family, and community.
Rehab starts while you are still in the hospital. After you leave the hospital, you can continue treatment at a rehab center or at home. Some rehab programs offer at least 3 hours of therapy a day, 5 or 6 days a week.
A key part of rehab is taking steps to prevent a future stroke. To stay in good health, you may need to take medicines and make some lifestyle changes. Work with your rehab team to decide what type of exercise, diet, or other lifestyle choices are best for you.
You have the greatest chance of regaining your abilities during the first few months after a stroke. So it is important to start rehab soon after a stroke and do a little every day.
Who is on a stroke rehab team?
You and your family, loved ones, and caregivers are the most important part of the rehab team. A team of health professionals will work with each other, you, and your caregivers to help you recover from a stroke. A rehab team may include doctors and nurses who specialize in stroke rehab, as well as rehabilitation therapists such as:
- A Reference physical therapist Opens New Window to work on problems with movement, balance, and coordination.
- An Reference occupational therapist Opens New Window to help you practice eating, bathing, dressing, writing, and other daily tasks.
- A Reference speech-language pathologist Opens New Window to help you relearn language skills and also help if you have problems with swallowing.
- A Reference recreational therapist Opens New Window to help you return to activities that you enjoyed before the stroke.
- A Reference psychologist Opens New Window or Reference counselor Opens New Window to help you deal with your emotions.
- Other health professionals, such as a Reference dietitian Opens New Window to help you plan a healthy diet and a vocational counselor to help you find a job or get back to work.
A Reference social worker Opens New Window or case manager will help you and your caregivers arrange for the help and equipment you may need at home after you leave the rehab center.
What kinds of problems can people have after a stroke?
The problems you have after a stroke depend on what part of your brain was affected and how much damage the stroke caused. People who have had a stroke often have:
- Problems with movement and sensation. You may have pain, numbness, or tingling in your arms and legs; muscle stiffness or spasms; weakness; and trouble with walking and moving. You may have problems with your sense of touch or how well you feel hot and cold, trouble swallowing and eating, and urinary or bowel problems.
- Problems with vision. You may have problems seeing in some or all of the normal areas of vision.
- Problems with not being aware of one side of your body. If you don't look to that side, you may forget or ignore that side of your body.
- Problems with language and thinking. You may not be able to understand written or spoken language, read or write, or express your thoughts. You may also have problems with memory and learning.
- Emotional problems. A stroke can cause feelings of fear, anxiety, anger, sadness, and grief, both for survivors of a stroke and their loved ones.
Does a stroke cause permanent problems?
A stroke damages parts of the brain that control different things in the body, such as speech and movement. But other parts of the brain can take over for the damaged areas. Many people are able to get back most of the skills and abilities they lost.
Some people do have permanent problems after a stroke. But more than half of people who have a stroke regain their ability to take care of themselves.Reference 1
How long does rehab take?
For most people, rehab is a lifelong process. The road to recovery can be long and frustrating, so keeping a positive outlook is key. Try everything you can to get better, and get relief from pain if you need to. Your stroke rehab team is there to help in as many ways as it can. A strong support network of family and friends is also very important.
You may recover the most in the first few weeks or months after your stroke. But you can keep getting better for years. It just may happen more slowly. And it may take a long time and a lot of hard work. Don't give up hope.
What else should you think about?
- It is common to feel sad and hopeless after a stroke. It may be hard to deal with your emotions. Tell your rehab team how you feel. Get treatment for Reference depression Opens New Window if you need it.
- It is important to get the support you need. Let your loved ones help you. Get them involved in your treatment. Talk to others who have had a stroke, and find out how they handled problems.
- A stroke affects your loved ones too. They may be as scared and worried as you are. Urge them to find a caregiver support group and learn ways to relieve their stress.
- Medical insurance may not cover the rehab or devices you need after you leave the hospital. Have a caregiver check on Medicare or other programs.

Where Google Places comes In to help you grow your business is one simple amazing fact. 71% of all internet searches. Back in 2005 69% of all searches were done using Google. With this amazing fact in mind Google Places, which is Google's version of a yellow page business listing, is for the time being free, offers business owners an opportunity to list all their business information including contact information, location information, website address, images from the business and Youtube videos. Businesses with the most relevant information and the with a well designed website quite often get listed on PAGE 1 in the group businesses listed in Google Places business listings or they get listed organically ( organic listing means the search engine computer programs list of indexed websites for every possible relevant search term, bit of information, product, service, or news item. The more relevent the search engines find a website the higher the search engines index the website. Some website are on page 1 while other websites show up on page 7) for that business's search term. The higher or better your placement is in the list of business in Google Places or the higher your business is listed organically statistically the better your chance is of someone clicking on the link to your website which in turn can convert into new business.

A new study from the UK says asthma symptoms are more commonly diagnosed in children whose mothers used fertility treatments than in children born through natural conception.
The connection? It could be the result of some kind of underlying—and still unknown—health issue among children of mothers who underwent fertility treatments such as IVF, say researchers. But another plausible explanation? After putting so much time and effort into getting pregnant, IVF moms may be more cautious about their child's health—and, thus, much more likely to report symptoms at the first sign of wheezing.
Here's what the study found. Using data from a nationwide healthy survey of more than 18,000 children born in the UK between 2000 and 2002, researchers noticed that at age 5, children born to parents considered "sub-fertile"—meaning couples who took longer than a year to conceive or who conceived via some form of assisted reproduction technology (ART)—were consistently more likely to have developed asthma, wheezing, and to be taking anti-asthmatic medication. For example, while 15 percent of all children had asthma by age 5, 24 percent of children conceived through IVF had been diagnosed with the disease by the same age.
Researchers scratched their heads at first after unearthing the unusual statistics because they just couldn't tell what was behind the numbers. "Although we found an association... further research is needed to establish what might be causing the association and the underlying mechanism involved," says study author Dr. Claire Carson, a researcher at the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit at the University of Oxford, in a press release.
However, Carson does venture a guess that any one of several reasons could explain the link between fertility treatments and asthma, such as the severity of the infertility, the type of treatment, and even perhaps that over-protective IVF parents are more likely to report asthma symptoms.
Researchers are betting that a medical explanation is behind all this, and doubt that overly worried parents are completely to blame. In their minds, the only way to settle the issue is through, well, more research!
But moms who have gone through the roller coaster of infertility and IVF treatments before getting pregnant?
"Oh, I think there is totally something to this," says Amanda Crosby, from Manalapan, New Jersey, who used IVF to conceive her second child after being diagnosed with secondary infertility.
"My son is very young, so the memory of what we went through to have him is still fresh. If I even notice the slightest runny nose, I am all over it. You better believe if I thought he had asthma, we would be at the doctor's that same day."

FORT MYERS, Fla. — The Red Sox tried something creative last season when they installed Bobby Valentine as manager. The hope was that he would catch the attention of a talented team that had lost its way.
"It was pretty obvious what they wanted to do," reliever Andrew Miller said. "There was, on a lot of people's parts, an effort to change the style. They wanted a different kind of personality."
This article is a waste of the readers' time. Old, 'kill Bobby V" rhetoric. Farrell is a proven loser as a Manager...so far. HE has to prove himself this year, NOT Valentine. I think the fact that so many players were traded or are now gone speaks to the level of disarray under Coma the previous year, not Valentime.

The Nocturne 2012
Photos: Jack Saunders
Unusually the rain held off at the 6th Smithfield Nocturne and over 10,000 people flocked to the ancient market for a festival of bike racing. Earlier in the day 40 people joined us for a ride through London with members of the Rapha Condor Sharp team. Starting at Condor Cycles the ride meandered through the city, finishing up at the Rapha H-Van for coffee and pastries. The rate of coffee orders increased as the crowds gathered and at the hospitality bar, the Rapha Condor bar to be more precise, specially created cocktails were devoured.
The evening sun shone on the first few races, from the penny-farthing to the longest skid competition. Then as it got dark the Rapha Women's Elite Race set off seeing a strong field of women vying for position over 40 minutes. Hannah Barnes (Team Ibis-Cycles) won for the fourth time in a close race.
The grand finale was the Men's Elite Criterium which never ceases to excite. As the roar of the motorbike signalled the arrival of the riders, the bunch whipped around the course in a blur of colour.
Crowds banged excitedly on the finish straight boards as a group of four, including Rapha Condor Sharp's Kristian House, broke away early and managed to lap the peloton about half way through 50 exhausting, noisy and exciting minutes of racing. Sky's Ian Stannard won with Kristian taking second and Niklas Gustavsson of Team UK Youth in third.
Highlights of the race will be shown on Channel 4 on 16th June at 7.00 and online on 4OD.

Foreign ministers of Islamic countries have agreed to suspend Syria from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a non-binding vote that sets the stage for the group's two-day emergency summit in Saudi Arabia.
Syria is one of the main items on the agenda of the Mecca meeting, which opens Tuesday. The ministers met in Jeddah ahead of the summit.
"There is an agreement to support the Syrian people and standing by their side, we are agreeing on freezing the membership of Syria until it retains its balance," Tunisian Foreign Minister Rafiq Abdul Salam said, according to the official Saudi Press Agency.
The heads of state must approve the suspension before it can take effect.
The move by the foreign ministers came after Syrian rebels claimed one of their biggest achievements yet -- the shooting down of a military jet.
Video posted by the rebel forces shows a jet framed in a cloudless sky being shot at, catching fire and falling out of frame.
"A MiG warplane shot down in Mouhassen!" says an excited man off-camera, citing a location in Deir Ezzor. "God is great!"
The government denied the jet was shot down, blaming the crash instead on a "technical failure." It said the jet fighter was on an "ordinary training flight" and that the pilot ejected safely.
The search for the pilot was still under way late Monday, according to the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA)
A few hours after the rebels made their claim, the opposition Local Coordinating Committees of Syria posted a video showing what it said was the pilot, whom it identified as Col. Mufeed Mohamad Suleiman. No identification card was shown.

Two die in auto accidents
Photo Courtesy of Michael O'Keefe - McKinney firefighters extinguish a fire that engulfed a van Tuesday afternoon after the van collided with a signal-light pole at the southwest corner of Lake Forest Drive and Highlands Drive in McKinney. The man driving the van, whose identity police could not yet confirm, died in the collision.
By Chris Beattie,
Published: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 9:12 PM CST
A woman and a man were killed in separate auto accidents Tuesday in Collin County, one off U.S. 380 near Lowry Crossing and the other in McKinney.
Shortly after 8:20 a.m., the Lowry Crossing Fire Department responded to an accident involving an 18-wheeler and a small passenger vehicle off U.S. 380 just west of Bridgefarmer Road, said Lowry Crossing Fire Chief Aaron Heitman.
The 18-wheeler, which he said "appeared to have been traveling west on 380," ran into the back of the smaller Honda at the intersection, then pushed the car farther west of Bridgefarmer Road.
The woman driving the Honda was loaded into an ambulance and pronounced dead shortly thereafter, Heitman said. The driver of the 18-wheeler suffered no visible injuries in the accident.
Because the accident occurred within Collin County but outside any specific city limits, the Princeton Volunteer Fire Department, the Texas Department of Public Safety and McKinney police also responded to the scene. The roads were cleared by around 3 p.m. Tuesday.
Police could not yet reveal any further information regarding the victim, pending notification of next of kin, and had not yet determined the cause of the accident.
A man died in a separate accident when his van collided with a signal-light pole around 1 p.m. Tuesday at the southwest corner of Lake Forest Drive and Highlands Drive in McKinney.
McKinney Deputy Police Chief Scott Brewer said that when police and firefighters responded to the scene, the late-model white van was engulfed in flames, the victim's body already severely burned.
Police could not confirm the victim's identity or age, pending an ongoing investigation into the accident.

For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to chlorpheniramine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine: oral liquid, oral suspension extended release, oral tablet chewable
Nervous system
Nearly all patients treated with chlorpheniramine experience drowsiness. This drowsiness may subside in some patients with extended use.
Few cases of dyskinesias and tremors, often of the face, have been reported in patients whose chronic use of chlorpheniramine extended over a period of 3 to 10 years. Some of these cases were only partially relieved by discontinuation of the drug. Haloperidol was successful in relieving symptoms.
Nervous system side effects of chlorpheniramine have included drowsiness in 75% or more of treated patients. Dyskinesias have rarely been reported following chronic use of chlorpheniramine.
Nervous system side effects of dextromethorphan have included drowsiness and dizziness. Other side effects such as excitation, mental confusion, and opioid like respiratory depression have been rare and occurred at higher dosages. In some cases of abuse, patients experienced euphoria, hyperactivity, mania, and auditory and visual hallucinations.
Nervous system side effects of pseudoephedrine have included insomnia in up to 30% of patients. Tremor, anxiety, nervousness, and headache have also been reported.
Gastrointestinal side effects of chlorpheniramine have included dry mouth and constipation in up to one-third of treated patients.
Gastrointestinal side effects of dextromethorphan have included stomach upset.
Gastrointestinal side effects of pseudoephedrine have included anorexia and gastric irritation in approximately 5% of patients. Dry mouth, nose, or throat have occurred in up to 15% of patients.
Cardiovascular side effects of chlorpheniramine have included hypotension, tachycardia, and palpitations.
Cardiovascular side effects of pseudoephedrine have included tachycardia. Some patients have developed hypertension and/or arrhythmias.
Pseudoephedrine causes vasoconstriction which generally does not produce hypertension, but may be problematic for patients with preexisting hypertension. Arrhythmias may be produced in predisposed patients. Rarely, pseudoephedrine has been reported to cause coronary artery spasm and chest pain.
One report evaluated the effect with 60 mg of pseudoephedrine on individuals in a hyperbaric chamber at 1 atmosphere (simulated scuba dive to 66 feet of sea water). Pseudoephedrine and depth (simulated) were found to have significant but opposite effects on heart rate, although these effects were unlikely to be clinically significant during diving.
Ocular effects of chlorpheniramine have included blurred vision, diplopia, and dry eyes due to anticholinergic effects.
Genitourinary side effects of chlorpheniramine have included dysuria, urinary hesitancy, and a decreased urine flow. In rare cases, the anticholinergic effect of chlorpheniramine has precipitated acute urinary retention.
Hematologic side effects of chlorpheniramine have included bone marrow suppression, thrombocytopenia, and aplastic anemia.
A fatal case of agranulocytosis has been reported in a patient taking chlorpheniramine, pseudoephedrine, acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, phenylpropanolamine, and aspirin. Chlorpheniramine was felt to be the cause.
Hypersensitivity side effects of dextromethorphan have included rare reports of fixed-drug eruptions.

The 160GB disk has a second partition, formatted to NTFS and with a size of ~60GB. I have tried to install SUSE 11.1 from a USB stick after setting the BIOS accordingly. There is an ISO image on the stick, and the stick shows in BIOS, but the computer still boots up with Windows.
I've also tried it with an external DVD drive, again setting the BIOS to boot from it with the SUSE 11.0 DVD. But, although the BIOS seems to detect the drive, the machine still boots XP. I also copied the ISO image into the vacant partition, but of course that doesn't make it boot either.

We also find it in certain animals, minerals, and vegetables, but in a more fragmentary fashion, an accent among the prevailing browns, golds, and greens. Accordingly, blue carries strong associations with otherworldliness and with distance. Leonardo da Vinci noted that objects gain a bluish aspect as they recede to the horizon. Who has not regarded distant blue hills without a stab of longing?
Vishnu, the Hindu deity who preserves the world, is frequently depicted with blue-tinted skin to connote his deep relation to water, as is Krishna, his avatar. The Virgin Mary has come to be identified by blue robes; although her connection with the color is relatively recent, it follows the metaphoric logic of the hue. //

The CO is trying a new approach to get things done: small task forces of about 3-6 people.
The idea is that a smaller group will spend less time discussing and more time doing; and rather than relying on a single individual to attend CO meetings and do all the work it can be shared; finally team members can remind and chase each other rather than relying on the CO to do that.
This is not meant to be a formal structure - just some common sense.
Here's a check list for a task force:

MELFORT — There was quite a ruckus this weekend after Chris Schille — who plays second for Regina Callie's Brock Virtue — was ejected from a SaskTel Tankard B-final game.
Schille's ensuing Twitter outburst caused a sensation in the Canadian curling world, and climaxed what the Saskatchewan Curling Association says has been a couple of weeks of bad behaviour by the men chasing a Brier berth — both at northerns, southerns and then the Tankard.
"The whole event was disappointing," says Deanna Rindal, the Tankard's alternate head official who was hammered on Twitter by Schille and others after she ejected him for swearing. "There was language and actions out there that aren't acceptable. Numerous teams were talked to, warnings were issued to many teams. It's been building and building."
SCA officials talked to curlers in a team meeting before the Tankard to warn them about watching their conduct. A dressing room was allegedly damaged at southerns — the SCA continues to investigate that — and complaints came in about how players were acting on the ice.
SCA president Barry Whitehouse said player conduct during this year's playdowns is the worst he's seen.
"We had incidents in Kindersley and Estevan, at the northerns and southerns, where we have spectators walking out of the buildings with their children because they just don't want to hear this crap anymore," Whitehouse said. "And we don't want to lose spectators."
The problem continued at the Tankard, with officials warning several teams about their language and conduct. Rindal said she personally talked to Virtue's team a couple of days before the ejection about language on the ice.
Schille, who played at Briers with Newfoundland's Brad Gushue in 2007 and 2008, indicated on his Twitter account that he was ejected for kicking a rock.
His Tweets:
"No point in lying about what happened is it was on TV for all to see. I kicked I rock into the corner after a 'made' double by Brock...."
"Apparently the lovely lady never competed in her sad life official saw it differently. Instead of talking it over I was given 15 seconds ..."
"To leave the ice or we forfeit the game, then given 5 more minutes to change and leave the building before being 'physically removed' ...."
"This is clearly all very acceptable and I should probably also be thrown in jail, maximum security at that. Twenty-five to life sounds fair."
But Rindal, an SCA official for more than 25 years, says she never saw Schille kick a rock and that had nothing to do with his removal. The second-end ejection, she says, was because she heard him using obscene language just a few feet from where she stood, moments after teammate DJ Kidby banged his broom.
"These games are being broadcast, we're getting emails about the foul language and why isn't something getting done, I was sick and tired of taking the brunt for their actions, and the officials getting blamed for it," Rindal said. "So I said 'Schille, you're gone. Leave the arena.' He asked what for, and I said for swearing. He said 'all I said was damn it under my breath', and I said 'no, I have ears. I can hear.' Then (third) Braeden Moskowy came in and was begging for another warning — 'It's the B final, it's the B final! Can't we get a warning?' I said you had warnings all week long. No more warnings. I took out my stopwatch and said you have 15 seconds to leave before you forfeit the game.
"I did my job. I did what I needed to do. From what I'm hearing, I've got the support of many, many, many people out there, that it should have been done earlier. And I totally agree — it should have been done earlier, and it's too bad it was the B final. But I took a stand for the officials. We're being put to blame for the actions of the athletes out there."
Virtue's team went on to beat Josh Heidt 5-3 in that game while using three players. That victory propelled them into the playoff round, and they beat Bruce Korte, as a foursome, 6-4 in Sunday's final.
After the title game, Schille said he didn't regret sending the post-ejection Tweets, and he questioned why officials waited until the B-final to do something about the problem. He insisted that his infraction was done quietly and under his breath.
"We knew everyone was on thin ice, based on what happened at southerns and northerns," Schille said. "We were warned before the event, and they came up and told us a few times, lower your voice or don't bang your broom as hard. I guess that time, she'd just had enough. I swore under my breath and kicked a rock into the corner, and when I came off she said to keep walking. We tried to reason with her, and all she did was say 15 seconds, you forfeit the game.
"There was pressure on them; I know that for a fact. There was a lot of unhappy sponsors and lot of unhappy fans at southerns and northerns, and we knew that coming in. It's tough. It's not football and it's not NHL hockey, but we're here to win. Emotions are going to run high, especially when you're playing for the biggest prize."
Rindal, meanwhile, wouldn't say whether she feels Schille deserves further sanctions for what transpired over the weekend.
"If he's learned something from it, I hope that's the outcome," she said. "Apologies? Maybe. But I have thick skin. It doesn't bother me. I'm doing my job, and that's what I'm here to do."

HARTFORD, Conn., March 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- It takes mere seconds for a pebble or road debris to damage a windshield. What starts out as a small bullseye or chip in the glass can quickly grow into a crack that compromises the safety of drivers and their passengers. Fixing the damage before it escalates into a safety issue used to require an expensive trip to the repair shop. However, now most drivers can tackle dings and chips from the comfort of their own driveways.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130312/NY74522)
An unattended chip in the windshield could get worse with time, because constant vibration in the vehicle and changes in temperature can cause the chip to expand and spread. Eventually, you may be left with a larger, unsightly crack stretching across the glass, and what started as a inexpensive repair job has now turned into a costly windshield replacement.
Glass repairs may or may not be covered by your insurance. Repair bills for damaged windshields can range from $75 to several hundred dollars. Many drivers are unaware that windshield repair does not have to be a difficult or expensive venture. With do-it-yourself kits, repairing chips can now be done in mere minutes for right around $10.
Permatex® has developed a special Windshield Repair Kit that fills in the ding and stops the damage from spreading while minimizing the blemish on the glass. It comes complete with everything needed to make a permanent, professional quality repair in minutes, including step-by-step instructions and an online demo video. There is no mixing required and the repair cures automatically under natural sunlight.
For the kit to be effective, the chip or bullseye should be no more than a 1¼ inches long and must be on the outside of the windshield. It is a good idea to make the repair as soon as possible after it happens. This prevents the crack from getting contaminated and spreading.
The Windshield Repair Kit follows the same steps that a repair shop would, including sealing the crack with resin under a vacuum. View the Permatex how-to demo video at www.permatex.com.
In addition to quickly repairing a ding in the windshield, there are other windshield maintenance tips to follow.

"I was really looking for high quality instruction…"
"MMA has been my favorite sport since I was 16 and I always wanted to give it a try. I found a few different schools, one I had briefly trained at previously and it was not a great experience for me. I chose Nak Muay Gym because I was really looking for high quality instruction. I have gained some great friends and right now I am in the best shape I have been in since high school. My goals for the future are to become an mma fighter and an instructor as well. I would love the opportunity to teach up and comers as I have been taught.

"The reason I stayed was because of the teachers…"
As I was turning 40 years old, I found it harder to get much out of just going to the gym. As a big fan of mixed martial arts, I wanted to learn a striking art that had both a martial arts tradition and real world application. The Muay Thai program at Nak Muay Gym was the perfect choice.
I first chose Nak Muay because of the convenient location, the quality facilities, and the variety of martial arts offered, ( real kickboxing classes , Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Muay Thai). The reason I stayed is because of the teachers. Knowing that most of them actually compete was a big plus. Additionally, their approach to instruction makes everyone feel comfortable as they carefully guide students through techniques with an attitude that is both serious and welcoming.

"Since training at Nak Muay Gym, I lost 60 lbs…"
Looking for a quality gym was difficult. Other then franchise gyms and the random half baked gyms that popped up during the UFC boom, my only options for quality training were hours away. Through a friends recommendation I looked into Nak Muay Gym. It's Perfect! I can learn Muay Thai from Kru Eric Karner who has fought and trained in Thailand. I have recently added Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to my routine under the tutelage of Professor Tim Carpenter and have fallen in love with the sport as well. Nak Muay's staff is great! I am being trained by accomplished fighters who are well versed in their sport. Since training here, I have lost over 60lbs and looking to lose another 25lbs! Nak Muay Gym is really great and I'm not just saying that. I am in the best shape of my life and I am having fun learning Muay Thai and Jiu-Jitsu while doing so. And when I get to my goal weight and with my coaches recommendation I would love to compete, being it on the mat, in the ring or in the cage.

"I love the lines my muscles get…"
"Nak Muay's kickboxing is the best! I'm never able to work up a sweat like that on my own (think, shirt wringing kind of sweat … it's great!), and I love the 'lines' my muscles get in such a short amount of time. I love that I'm learning technique, not just exercising, and that every class is a challenge. The people make the experience even better … so much support and camaraderie!"

"a greater sense of my own abilities to exceed my previous limitations…"
I was looking for a well-rounded program to provide me with improved cardiovascular health, efficient self-defense skills, and good coaching, preferably close to my home. Until I settled on WorldMMA, I found some other gyms that seemed to offer some of what I was looking for, but they were either not the type of martial art I thought was best for me, or they were in a poor geographic location. I chose Nak Muay Gym for several reasons. A friend/co-worker of mine had already trained in MMA and highly recommended Muay Thai. I was very impressed with how informative, courteous, and encouraging the staff members were. Since joining 2 years ago, I have achieved multiple positive results. Among them the acquisition of a very effective self-defense system, greatly improved cardiovascular health, better self-esteem, strong motivation to continue training and improve on a regular basis. I also have the privilege of studying with coaches who are established, talented professionals in the world of mixed martial arts. I have also made many new friends! The benefits are a greater sense of my own abilities to exceed my previous limitations, a general better sense of well being, and the spirit of camaraderie from being part of a positive, energetic group of athletes. Training at Nak Muay Gym has been one of the most positive experiences of my life, and has certainly exceeded my expectations. I plan to continue my training with the goals of learning more techniques, improving my skills, and possibly one day actually competing in amateur fights.

The benefits in offering a variety of martial arts styles for our members to choose from. We have Muay Thai from Thailand, Jiu-Jitsu from Brazil, Judo from the Island of Japan, and Boxing and Wrestling from North America. Studying the martial arts at Nak Muay Gym gives a cultural experience to our students. The numerous benefits of having a school with different martial arts styles is another great reason to join WorldMMA.
Choose your Self Defense system, Learn the culture, Experience the benefits.
Muay Thai – There is so much more to the Martial Arts besides the punching and kicking. Our Muay Thai students will learn about Thailand. The deep understanding of Thai culture is just as important to us as the techniques are. By understanding the history of Thailand, you will have a greater understanding and appreciation of Thai boxing as a sport.
The cultural aspects are very important as well. We regularly have Thai trainers come to our school and we want to show respect to them. By understanding their culture, we show that we are an authentic Muay Thai school.
Jiu Jitsu- many of the martial arts today can be traced back to Japan. Even Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or BJJ can be traced back to Japan as well. We start every class with a bow to our instructor. This is a typical salutation or greeting for the Japanese people in their everyday lives. Because BJJ was derived from Judo, we like to continue with the martial arts heritage by bowing at the beginning and end of every class. We also bow before we step on and off the mat.
No matter which martial arts style you choose to practice, you can be sure that you will have a deep understanding of roots to each discipline. Possessing great martial arts skills is only one part of being a true Martial Artist.
A message from the owners…
We have dedicated our lives to the martial arts. We have traveled all over the world to learn from the best and sharpen our skills in not only self defense and competition, but also in teaching the arts to our students. We have a combined 35+ years of training, fighting, and teaching Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. We are committed to providing our students with everything they need to reach their goals whether it be loosing weight and getting in shape, self defense, competition, or becoming a world champion.

Great small town race that benefits the cross country team at ONU. What makes this race great is the enthusiasm of the kids on the XC team. They make signs for each runner, track your laps, run with you the last few miles. Also, more good stuff: free pasta dinner, and hat or arm warmers in addition to the long-sleeve shirt.
Great run indoors on the field house track of Ohio Northern University in Ada, Ohio. Great management, Great pasta dinner, Great hotel accommodations, Great long sleeve race shirt, Great ONU student athlete lap counters and motivators, Great facility, and Great EMT staff! I am hoping this becomes a winter running tradition for the institution.
I won't be adding much that hasn't been said by others, but wanted everyone to know that all the previous positive comments are still true: if not even better this year! The track is wonderful for those of us use to asphalt and cement (or roots and rocks)and my fears of boredom and confusion were quickly put to rest. The shirt is gorgeous (long-sleeved, tech fabric, good design, zero ads), the finisher medal unique, and everything about the event compares favorably to those with huge budgets, large staff, and many years of experience. The people are helpful and friendly (Thanks Richard and Jeffrey, my terrific counters and cheering squad), the facility is top-notch, and the race itself is one of my favorites (out of 155 I have completed). Don't deny yourself the experience of staying at The Inn at Ohio Northern, which is first-rate!
This marathon takes place during the middle of cold Ohio winters in the tiny college town of Ada; however, the race was held in wonderful conditions of 58 degrees with zero humidity or precipitation. The indoor track was comfortable on the feet and it never seemed boring. The race organizers did a good job with providing food the night before and runners were invited to set up their own aid tables around the track. Members of the cross country team served as our lap counters and they also cheered us on during the race. The only complaint I have about the race were that there was no indication as to standings during the race. Runners were told their lap times, but it was frustrating to be near the leader and have no idea how much gap existed until after they finished. In all, it was a good time. Definitely one you should consider.
This was a first for me - an indoor marathon. I was impressed from start to finish. The pasta dinner was on the infield the night before the race with a nice, catered meal. By the next morning the indoor track was filled with college athletes there to count laps. There was a lot of energy and enthusiasm. The laps clicked off fast and we changed directions every half hour. I was not bored. My legs felt good, except for moderate quad soreness the next day. It felt great to me running in a t-shirt and shorts in January. The 2 college track athletes (Richard and Joann) took turns pacing with me during the last 10 miles. They were great. It was a very nice overall experience for anyone wanting to try an indoor marathon.
This race is held in the small, western, Ohio, college town of Ada in the King Horn Sports Center on the campus of Ohio Northern University. It is held to benefit the cross-country programs there. The members of the team pair up to serve as lap counters for each runner. You will be doing a lot of laps - 211 of them around the soft, wide indoor track. Fortunately, the direction changes every 30 minutes, so it is easy on the IT bands. One problem that became apparent with the race, there wasn't any communication from the lap counters with each other, so leaders were unsure of where exactly their lap position was in the standings of the overall race. The race director recognizes the issue and steps will be taken to address that for next year. The packet pickup was easy on Saturday night and a nice Italian cuisine was provided to runners right in the center of the course (track). For swag we got a nice Brooks technical shirt, gloves and Asics arm warmers. (Didn't need these the following morning, as the course environment was a constant and controlled 58 degrees.) One end of the building had the garage door opened up a bit to allow for additional ventilation. The camaraderie among the runners was quite friendly. Not many spectators (perhaps 50) were present, but the race was broadcast via webcast for all to see. One can stay for a discounted rate at the nearby Inn at Ohio Northern University, which was a very comfortable hotel. Nearest major airport is Columbus (CMH) about 85 miles to the southeast. It was an easy drive up to Ada. The winter outside in western Ohio can be frightful, but the conditions at the Polar Bear Marathon were delightful. It's one to consider should you find yourself frozen out of a slot at another indoor marathon at this time of year.
This was my fifth marathon in as many months and I did not know what to expect running in circles the whole time, but it was not nearly as bad as anticipated. The ONU runners were great; each made a sign for the runner they were counting laps for, and were cheering every lap. Even if you were not their runner, they still knew your name and cheered you on. Many of the ONU kids jumped in and ran laps after the midway point of the marathon, which helped to pass the time very well. The pasta dinner was good, and we actually were given useful things in our swag bad (i.e., arm warmers and gloves) and more importantly, NO ADVERTISEMENTS! it was nice not to have to flip through all the the dozens of flyers to see if there was anything useful just to realize that there wasn't. Boredom was not an issue, as music was playing the entire time and we were asked to submit songs we would like to hear played several weeks ahead of time.
I know that 211 laps around a track indoors can sound intimidating and boring. But not at this event. Fantastic winter run on the beautiful campus of Ohio Northern University inside the field house. What makes this event great are the people who manage it, the students from the cross-country and track teams that count laps and encourage the runners, and the other runners on the track. Stay at the Inn at Ohio Northern University for an outstanding addition to the event. For runners by runners!
The race directors and all of the volunteers from the ONU track and cross-country teams did a wonderful job on this inaugural event. The other comments covered the main points nicely, but I'll add my bit: *It was well organized, pre-race communication great. *The pasta dinner was at the indoor track, along with packet pick-up, and was included in the cost of the event. *The goody bag had really nice goodies (hat and gloves in addition to the tech tee). *The volunteers were FANTASTIC. I really appreciated my assigned counters, Tabitha and Amy, who stayed the whole time to count my laps - and did one lap with me after every mile finished. They were very cheerful and supportive! The volunteers were supportive of everyone - my smile muscles ached from smiling so much! *The set up for fluids worked very well, with tables that surrounded much of the track. And the race directors provided more goodies than I expected. *The music throughout was great. *The electronic message board was also a nice touch, as was the webcam - a couple of my friends actually took the time to watch me! *Changing directions every 30 minutes worked well to avoid any knee problems. All in all, very well done!!
If you're planning to try an indoor marathon, this is the one to start with. From the pre-race dinner (on the track!) to the lodging at the ONU hotel, to the "inspirational" messages on the scoreboard, this was first class. When I arrived at the fieldhouse on race day, I was greeted by two members on the track team (Nic and Nic) who advised me that they would be my scorers for the race. They kept track of my laps, gave me my times, and encouraged me for the entire 210 laps. One of them ran a few laps with me. There were quite a few students in the infield providing support for all the runners for the entire race. Each runner set up his personal aid station at tables around the track, which was excellent. Music was played for the entire time, and the temperature in the field house was kept in the mid 50s. My concern had been that boredom would set in, but it never did. There was enough activity, encouragement and interaction to keep it interesting. My finishing time was very similar to what I run in good weather on reasonably flat courses. I would recommend those looking for some late January marathoning to try this one.
