The DeKalb County school board has been asked by an accrediting agency to answer allegations that it has mismanaged its financial resources over the past five years.
In an Aug. 28 letter addressed to Superintendent Cheryl Atkinson from AdvancED, the parent company of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the accrediting agency states it has received numerous complaints about the management of the school district.
"It was from a broad base of the community—from parents, taxpayers and staff, to public officials," said Mark Elgart, president of AdvancED. "We weren't just looking at one person with an ax to grind."
According to the letter, the primary concerns shared in the complaints are that the board has failed to conduct itself in accordance with locally approved policy, state law and the AdvancED accreditation standards. Elgart said another concern is how the board has managed the district's budget over the past five years.
"Findings over the past five years show that they've been repeatedly under budgeted," Elgart said.
Elgart said in the previous five years the board has overspent in utility costs and legal fees and has still knowingly adopted a budget that isn't in line with the districts costs or resources.
"The district has overspent, which has left them with little to no reserves, and they continue to slash resources," Elgart said.
The letter also lists other concerns such as undue influence by the board in the hiring of personnel, interference with budgeting procedures and accounting, releasing confidential information leaked from executive sessions and undermining the authority of school administrators and supervisors throughout the system.
Currently, the DeKalb County School District is has an "on advisement" status with SACS, which means the accreditation agency has given the district a list of concerns to address. Elgart said since the last SACS assessment, the district hasn't made adequate progress on addressing those concerns.
"The system indicated that they were working on those issues and we haven't seen improvement; we've seen a continued pattern of concern," Elgart said. However, board chairman Eugene Walker said the board believes it has addressed all of the issues.
"Certainly, we welcome any inquiry by SACS, any at all [looking] into what we are doing," Walker said. "But, we're also concerned about the timing of this and what it seems to suggest. We just had a full review back in March and we were reaccredited "on advisement" and none of these things were brought forth."
DCSD has been given 30 days to respond to the allegations and Elgart said if the agency believes the district is in violation of any accreditation standards or policies, a special review team may be appointed to visit the school system. Elgart said the district isn't in danger of losing its accreditation at the moment.
"There is a potential that could change depending on the outcome of that investigation," Elgart said.
"There needs to be a change in the culture of the school system and there needs to be a structure of accountability," Elgart said. "It needs to be a system that is truly honest with itself and its resources."

Bert Bank, R.I.P.
We were saddened to learn of the recent passing of Major Bert Bank, U.S. Army (Retired). Bank, a World War II veteran, died last month in his hometown of Tuscaloosa, Alabama at the age of 94.
Mr. Bank's name probably doesn't ring a bell unless you grew up in western Alabama. Around Tuscaloosa, Bank was known as a pioneering broadcaster, civic leader and politician. He put two of the city's first radio stations on the air, and ran them for more than 30 years. He was involved in countless community projects and was elected to both the Alabama House and State Senate, where he served in the 1960s and 70s.
Mr. Bank also earned the undying loyalty from fans and alumni of his alma mater, the University of Alabama. In 1953, he put together the first state-wide radio network for broadcasts of Crimson Tide football games, and produced those broadcasts for almost 40 years. Even in retirement, he remained a fixture in the press box at Bryant-Denny Stadium and was named producer emeritus for Alabama sports broadcasts, a title he held until his death.
By any standard, Bert Bank crammed an amazing amount of achievement and service into his 94 years on this planet. But it's equally amazing that Mr. Bank lived long enough to become a broadcast executive, a pillar of his community and a successful politician. In fact, it's remarkable that Bank lived to see his 30th birthday, given the horrors and deprivation he endured as a member of the U.S. military.
You see, long before Bertram Bank bought that first radio station or won his first political campaign, he survived the Bataan Death March and nearly three years of hellish captivity in a Japanese POW camp. Many of his comrades weren't as fortunate; thousands perished during the march to the camp, or during their years as "guests" of the Emperor.
Readers of Ghost Soldiers, Hampton Sides' masterful account of the Death March, the camps and the ultimate liberation of the POWs by Army Rangers know something of Bank's ordeal. He was interviewed at length by Mr. Sides, and is one of the book's central characters, offering a dramatic testimony of defeat, captivity, and (ultimately) his return to freedom.
As recounted in the book, Mr. Bank's passage to Bataan began (oddly enough) during his college days. A classmate suggested he would look good in uniform, so Bank joined the Army ROTC program at the University of Alabama. After graduation and commissioning, he spent a brief stint with a coastal artillery unit before transferring to the Air Corps, with an assignment as a B-17 bombardier at Clark Field in the Phillippines. He arrived in the fall of November 1941, just a few weeks before the Japanese attack.
Mr. Bank's flying career was cut short on December 8, 1941, when Japanese aircraft destroyed most of the B-17s at Clark and other airfields in the Philippines. The few surviving bombers--and trained crew members--were dispersed to other bases and eventually moved to Australia. Other personnel (including Bert Bank) were reassigned to the infantry for the defense of Bataan, the narrow peninsula where General Douglas MacArthur planned to fight a holding action against superior Japanese forces.
Working as a G-2 (intelligence officer), then-Lieutenant Bank was given the task of determining the enemy's location. "But that wasn't hard to figure out," Bank later told Hampton Sides, "The enemy was everywhere."
As the battle raged, the situation on Bataan went from bad to desperate. U.S. and Filipino troops were desperately short of food, ammunition and medical supplies--with no hope of resupply from the United States or Australia. Despite exhortations from Washington to "hang on," General Edward King, the senior commander on Bataan, surrendered his forces on April 9, 1942. It was the largest capitulation in U.S. military history.
Mr. Bank was among those Americans who passed into captivity with General King's surrender. A few days later, he became one of the thousands of sick, emaciated men who were force-marched to prison by their enemy.
As Mr. Sides describes it, the Death March represented a clash of cultures and poor planning by Japan's high command. Under the Bushido code, surrender was considered shameful--Japanese troops could not imagine that most of the exhausted Americans and Filipinos would choose surrender over death on the battlefield. As a result, they found themselves with many more prisoners than they had estimated, and Japan lacked the transportation and logistical resources to handle thousands of American and Filipino prisoners.
But those problems do not provide a rationale for the brutal treatment of American and Filipino prisoners by the Empire of Japan. Mr. Bank's eyewitness account of the march and the camps affirms all of the atrocities associated with those events. Walking towards Camp O'Donnell--the former U.S. military post that Japan converted into a POW camp--Bank saw the worst of it. A Lieutenant Colonel he had been holding up slipped from his grasp and fell into the road; instantly, a Japanese solider ran him through with his bayonet. He was later forced at gunpoint to bury several Filipino prisoners who were severely wounded, but still alive.
Conditions in the camp were equally grim. Thousands of prisoners died from beatings, illness, malnutrition or a combination of those factors. But Mr. Bank persevered, a reflection of his courage and good humor that inspired other prisoners as well. They nick-named him "garbage mouth," not because of Bank's language, but his willingness to eat the often-putrid "food" offered by the Japanese.
But the years of captivity took their toll. The lack of necessary vitamins in his diet caused Bert Bank--and hundreds of other prisoners--to lose much of their vision. Bank also suffered from a form of neuropathy that left his feet numb. Both conditions would plague him for the rest of his life.
Mr. Bank and his fellow POWs were finally liberated in early 1945 during a daring raid by the U.S. Army's 6th Ranger Battalion. The story of that mission--and the men who carried it out--form the other half of Ghost Soldiers, and it's a compelling read. The Rangers, led by their charismatic leader, Lt Col Henry Mucci, marched 30 miles into Japanese territory, freed more than 500 Allied POWs, and escorted them back to American lines.
Bert Bank was one of those men who made the dangerous journey, despite his condition. The raid--and liberation of the prisoners--came just weeks after the Japanese began to systematically exterminate many of the remaining POWs. In fact, plans for the raid were put in motion after a handful of captives (including Army Private Eugene Nielsen) escaped and reported the execution campaign. Guerilla leaders provided similar information to U.S. intelligence, adding urgency to liberation efforts.
After a stay in military hospitals, Mr. Bank returned to his hometown, embarking on his broadcasting career. He launched the Alabama football network just five years before a former classmate moved back to Tuscaloosa, and became the head coach of the Crimson Tide. His name was Bear Bryant.
In his book, Hampton Sides observed that the Bataan Death March--and the men who survived it--have been largely forgotten by history. And despite a flurry of interest that accompanied the publication of Ghost Soldiers (2001) and the film it inspired (2005's The Great Raid), Mr. Sides' assessment seems accurate.
This year, on the 67th anniversary of the march--and the 64th anniversary of the POWs return to freedom--Japan actually did more to commemorate the event than our own government. In March, Japan's ambassador to the U.S., Ichiro Fujisaki, addressed the final convention of Bataan and Correigdor survivors, and offered a belated apology for the Death March. Only 71 veterans of that campaign were present at the reunion; with Bert Bank's recent death, their ranks have dwindled yet again.
More on Mr. Bank and his remarkable life from the Tuscaloosa News.

The keen-eyed among you will have noticed that the list of invited countriesbelow omitted Slovakia. The Slovaks have been invited; it was simply an error on our part.

A Dose of Celtics History Part 2 Tuesday, June 26, 2007 by FLCeltsFan 9:38 PM With the trade rumors going hot and heavy and most of them are lopsided against the Celtics, it is a good time to continue with our look at Celtics history and the players who have had their numbers retired in Boston. Number 16 was retired on January of 1973 for Tom "Satch" Sanders. Satch grew up in Harlem and played basketball for Seward Park High School and New York University before going on to play in the NBA. He played all of his 13 years with the Celtics and was part of eight championship teams from 1961 through1969. In NBA history, only teammates Bill Russell and Sam Jones have won more championship rings during their playing careers. He retired in 1973 and went on to coach the Celtics for a brief time in 1978 and 1979. Today, 'Satch' is the NBA's Vice-President and Director of Player Programs. Based in New York City, his birthplace, 'Satch' designs programs to help both veteran and rookie players take advantage of their unique status as professional athletes and to assist them in coping with the special pressures they face. Player Programs is responsible for facilitating the following: post-career counseling; educational and employment opportunities; the NBA/PA (Players Association) Anti-Drug and Alcohol Programs; advice on dealing with celebrity status and media attention and a nonprofit foundation that benefits former players. Number 17 was retired on October 13, 1978 in honor of the legendary John "Hondo" Havlicek. Even though Havlicek is considered one of the best players in NBA history, he was mostly overlooked as a college player because he was on the same team as Jerry Lucas at Ohio State University. That team, which also had future coaching legend Bobby Knight as a reserve, won the 1960 NCAA title. Havlicek was drafted by both the Celtics and the NFL's Cleveland Browns in 1962. After competing briefly as a wide receiver in the Browns' training camp that year, he focused his energies on playing for the Celtics. Head coach Red Auerbach later described him as the "guts of the team". He was also known for his stamina, with competitors saying that it was a challenge for them just to keep up with him. Havlicek The 6-5 Boston Celtics star was a perpetual-motion machine, a human dynamo who was legendary for wearing out opponents with his relentless baseline-to-baseline efforts. A star at both forward and guard, Havlicek's versatility made him perhaps the finest all-around player in the history of the NBA, according to Sports Illustrated. Hondo revolutionized the sixth man role and became the prototype Celtics' sixth man. Johnny Most's legendary call, "Havlicek stole the ball," remains a classic description of a memorable moment in NBA history. Havlicek owns three Wendy's restaurants and a piece of a food company in Ohio. He also handles public relations for a company in Leominster and listens to any freelancing opportunities that come up. Dave Thomas, owner of Wendy's, is a friend of Hondo's and his daughter Wendy, for whom the recipe is named, used to baby sit for him. Number 18 was retired on February 8, 1981 for Dave Cowens. Cowens' playing credo was all-out intensity at both ends of the court, a style that never wavered during his 11-year NBA career. Cowens played aggressively, often recklessly, and with great passion. He always gave fans their money's worth. At 6'9 he was considered by some to be too short to play center, but he played 11 years in the league, 10 with Boston and 1 in Milwaukee, and he averaged 17.6 points and 13.6 rebounds per game over his career. For a time during the early part of the 1977 season, Cowens left the teamand started driving a cab. He went AWOL from the Celtics for a short time just "to clear his head." He later explained that he was "suffering from burnout." He began his coaching career by serving as a combined player/coach for the Boston Celtics during the 1978-79 season, but he quit as coach after the season, and returned as a full-time player before retiring in 1980. However, he was coaxed out of retirement by the Milwaukee Bucks, and played for them during the 1982-83 season before retiring for good. He returned to the NBA coaching ranks by serving as an Assistant Coach for the San Antonio Spurs in 1994-96, and became Head Coach of the Charlotte Hornets from 1996-99 and had a brief tenure as head coach with the Golden State Warriors from 1999-2001 which only lasted 105 games. He was the head coach of the WNBA Chicago Sky for the 2005-06 season. He left the Sky to return to the NBA as an assistant coach for the Detroit Pistons last season. Number 19 was retired for Don Nelson. Don Nelson personifies the hard-working, blue-collar roots of the Midwest where he was raised. Whether he was playing on the hardwood or coaching from its sidelines, Nelson, or "Nellie" as he is often referred to, has carved himself a place in NBA history as one of league's toughest competitors. Nellie played for the Chicago Zephyrs (which later moved to Baltimore and became the Bullets) and the Lakers before coming to the Celtics. He played 11 years with the Celtics and won 5 Championships with them. After he retired as a player, he has coached for 26 years with Milwaukee, Golden State, Dallas, and even a brief stint with New York. He stepped down from his coaching position in Dallas due to health issues as he was facing a bout with prostate cancer. Now healthy, and at 66 years of age, Nellie coached the Golden State Warriors to an exciting playoff run last season. Number 21 was retired on October 15, 1966 for Bill Sharman, who played ten seasons with the Celtics from 1951 through 1961, and helped lead the Celtics to four NBA world championship titles. Arguably the greatest shooter of his era, Bill Sharman was one of the first NBA guards to push his field-goal percentage above .400 for a season (.436 in 1952-53), and he still ranks among the top free-throw shooters of all time with an .883 lifetime percentage. After retiring as a player in 1961 Sharman distinguished himself as an inspiring and innovative coach, the only one to win championships in three professional leagues-the American Basketball League in 1962, the American Basketball Association in 1971 and the NBA in 1972. He guided the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers to the best regular-season record (69-13) in NBA history until the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls finished 72-10. He introduced an innovative training device on game days called the "shootaround," in which players went through a light morning practice session prior to the day's contest. He felt that getting his team's mind on the game early, going over strategy, and loosening the muscles, were excellent ways to prepare mentally and physically for a game. Today most (if not all) NBA and college teams use shootarounds as a regular part of their training regimens. Sharmen was GM and club president of the Lakers and later remained with the team as a special consultant. He was only 1 of 3 people (the others being John Wooden and Lenny Wilkins) who was enshrined in the Hall of Fame as both player and coach. Number 22 was retired on October 16, 1963 for "Easy Ed" Macauley who was a member of the Celtics for six seasons from 1950 through 1956. He had his Celtics No. 22 retired at the same time as Bob Cousy's No. 14. They were the first two to have their numbers retired by Boston. Easy Ed" retired as the NBA's third all-time leading scorer trailing only George Mikan and Dolph Shayes at the time. MacAuley was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1960 at the age of 32 and to this day he is still the youngest player ever enshrined. There is a story behind Easy Ed that is worth recounting here. In 1956, Ed's son Patrick became ill. They took him to a Boston doctor, who after some time diagnosed Patrick with spinal meningitis. Ed and his wife had to take Patrick back and forth to St. Louis for treatment, which was a tremendous drain on them, both physically and financially. Ed was close to the Celtics' owner, Walter Brown, and requested a trade to the St. Louis Hawks, to make getting treatment for Patrick easier for them. Although Brown didn't want to trade him, he understood the personal difficulties and agreed to seek a trade. McCauley and Cliff Hagan were traded to St. Louis for the second pick in the draft that would become Bill Russell. Ed went on to star for St. Louis and sadly Patrick died a few years later. But had Ed not requested the trade, the history of the Celtics, and thus the league, would probably have been much different. These days, "Easy Ed", who is 79, resides in St. Louis, Missouri with his wife Jacqueline. The two of them have been married 52 years. MacAuley is retired and previously he was a Sports Director for two television stations in St. Louis. With retirement, MacAuley is currently very involved with his church serving as a Deacon and has written a book entitled "Homilies Lives" with Father Francis Fredle. Number 23 was retired for Frank Ramsey who played nine seasons in the NBA, all with the Celtics. He was the Celtics original sixth man. Red Auerbach, is often credited throughout basketball with creating the sixth man. Though Ramsey was one of the Celtics' best players, he felt more comfortable coming off the bench and Auerbach wanted him fresh and in the lineup at the end of close games. Ramsey was the first in a series of sixth men who won championship rings with the Celtics. After playing his rookie season with the Celtics (1954-1955), Ramsey spent one year in the military before rejoining the team. In the eight seasons he played after military service, he was a member of seven championship teams. Ramsey was also a head coach for one season (1970-71) in the ABA with the Kentucky Colonels. On November 15th, 2005, Ramsey's house was destroyed in a tornado that hit his residence in Madisonville, Kentucky. One of his plaques was found miles away from his home, and Ramsey himself was found unhurt.More to come...

I did not call or communicate with the technical support at Adobe because from my previous experience, it's a total waist of time. You can try but you will probably get a generic answer that does not work (from my previous experiences).
It is faster to search on Google and find the solution by yourself.
This is what I did to fix this problem:
- Started Windows Explorer
- Navigated to
C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesAdobe
- Created the SLStore folder that was missing
Now, Photoshop CS5 is starting properly! It is strange that the SLStore folder was missing because I had been using Photoshop CS5 for some time now and it was working perfectly! Must have happened in one of the updates.
The important thing is that I can now use it without any error message.
If this solution does not work for you, You can check those links:

If you have found another solution or have question regarding what I did, don't hesitated to leave a comment.

Bullied Columbia Teen Receives Thousands of Messages of Support After Mother's Social Media Plea
After Karen Brocklebank's son threatened to kill himself, she asked for support on social media and it came, in droves.
On Jan. 28, Karen Brocklebank wrote the first post on the Letters for Noah Facebook Page. The post described how her son was dealing with depression caused by bullying on social media sites and in his Howard County middle school. "This past weekend he posted on his Instagram account that he was planning to commit suicide on his birthday," wrote Brocklebank. "He also posted images of his arm where he has been cutting himself for the past two months." She was inspired to write about Noah's condition after sitting in the emergency room at his bed, where police had taken him after hearing about the Instagram post. "Noah has been dealing with bullying for the past year," wrote Brocklebank. "He has been feeling alone and left out, ostracized …

Noah, don't worry about those bullies, maybe they bully you because there is something in you that is not in them. Just remember that you have a whole future ahead of you and also think about the people who bully you, they will be satisfied if you kill yourself, and you don't want that.. I remember when I used to get bullied, I would come home and tell my parents and cry and would be depressed …   more ›

@trinats, Sorry mate....I tried...i struggled and lost. It was worst than giving up cuban cigars. i'll try again. Good luck Australia...(I secretly think you may surprise us....and i have just a little of the 7/1...insurance)
Posted 17:34 24th August 2012
@jonesy2, No man, the ABs are just too good....I don't think we'll beat them by 65 points. I'll be happy with 5 ahead.

The question is will you move on like you should have a year ago when you failed to answer about Coopers little kick like you have again now.
Posted 14:35 24th August 2012
Got it, you must be from Christchruch.. Or a blind kiwi, move on.
Posted 13:11 24th August 2012
For goodness sake open both eyes and for once try to look at something objectively for a change.
Cooper legaly clears McCaw out and then rushes up and appears to give McCaw, who is lying on the ground, a little kick in the backside and stands threateningly over him. McCaw raises his leg towards Cooper which could be perhaps argued in defence but whatever it appears Cooper stuck the boot in first and was just a silly little incident.
Now do you get that or need it be explained to you again in another years time.
As I said try being a bit more honest with your posts
Posted 12:00 24th August 2012
@ MasterBaiter... if your wet dream were to come true, would Deans get even the tiniest bit of credit?
@ new_j4a... taking your lead I've got McCheat down for Wicked Witch of the West, Possumhead O'Neill & "dingo" Deans as Dorothy & Toto but who's the Tin Man?
@ 2eyedkiwi... ask for 6 weeks & be grateful if it's as much as 2 days :-)
Posted 09:52 24th August 2012
Deal, how many weeks ?
Posted 08:08 24th August 2012
@Trinats, Touche, for your sake lets hope the ABs have got into the Christmas spirit early. On a more serious note, Australia at 7 to 1 to win must be the most generous (and ridiculous) odds ever, I am even tempted, but can't bring myself to do it. You should though!!
Posted 08:06 24th August 2012
Here it is again !!
in case you can't open it, it shows Cooper clearing out McCaw (I believe he was on side for once !!!) from a ruck, McCaw took offence from a tiny back clearing him out and then kicked Cooper. And what followed was the shove in the back by Cooper after Wallabies won in HK.
Posted 08:02 24th August 2012
new_j4a-- holy smokes whats the score prediction when the boks play to AB? 65 points?
Posted 07:57 24th August 2012
Not once did i mention 'great' in my earlier post. I'm just saying sharpe is not usually the guy letting down the team, atleast not for the w.force or aus games i have seen and for that he doesnt deserve the attacks from you.
Of course the only mark of a great/good player is winning a rwc or super rugby title. Haha. Its a fifteen man game! There are so many 'greats' that havent won it that i even wont bother to name names.
Talking about unforced errors based on last weekend's match and failing to mention a certain full back is bordering on a crime against humanity.
Finally i would like to apologize about the wife joke i posted earlier. Besides it probably being distateful, based on your "thought/logic" process I highly doubt that you are of wife-having age
Posted 07:53 24th August 2012
@georgesmith (they should banish you in aussie for tarnishing the great man's name by the way)
Any chance you caught your wife touching herself to pictures of nathan sharpe?? Seriously, I believe you have ripped into sharpe on every aussie article since the RC squad was named!!
Please name the better aus players last weekend. If sharpe isnt in the top 5, i'm sorry sir, but you are an imbecile.
Posted 07:48 24th August 2012
Trinats, we cant shut you up now, so why would an Aus victory make any difference???
Posted 01:23 24th August 2012
Not sure why Nathan Sharpe has his detractors. IMO he is the most honest Aussie rugby player this decade. Whole hearted and skilful in every game he plays- only Horwill comes near him in team contribution.
Posted 00:58 24th August 2012
Beale doesn't have his head in the game because of his assault charge this year (I'm guessing that cost him a pretty penny) and his injuries. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it at all in the press.
Also welcome back Cooper, I'm gonna take a wild stab in the dark and say the ABs will target you on defense, I hope you're prepared to tackle Read, Messam, Richie, Nonu and Williams running your channel.
Posted 00:32 24th August 2012
After all this time still claiming that Richie started it after having your evidence rubbished a multitude of times and with you miserably failing to respond.
Try being HONEST with your posts if you know what the word means.
Good luck to Cooper and I think the result may well be a lot closer than many predict
Posted 00:00 24th August 2012
@Trinats4 - fair call for not shutting up for weeks if your dream comes true!
Any chance you will shut up for weeks if it doesn't??
Posted 23:42 23rd August 2012
I don't mind this changes, they seems appropriate...BUT is it just me or Ioane at 15 could be the only way to create something out of nothing, in un already stiff wallabies' attack? I dunno his kicking abilities but it could be interesting.
Anyway...I'd like to see him more involved. Aussies really need his brilliance.
Posted 22:56 23rd August 2012
Here i was thinking you would never say a negative word on Cooper again.
I guess you can take the boy out of Sud Ofrika but you can take Sud Ofrika out of the boy !!!
AB's by 35 ??? it's no wonder you wait for my tips to win you some money. No one gives Aus a chance (including me) but paying $7 you'd be silly not to have a go, after all Australia are masters of upsetting NZ party !!!
It's a win win, if Aus lose, worst coach ever for Aus is gone and the end of an "error".
For me it's a personal milestone, last time we have to here BS about Sonny Williams (will he get a yellow or red card in his last game ???)
For those who do not believe, there are no gifts !!!
Aus by enough.

How to prevent or treat diabetic retinopathyMonday, May 20 2013 - 0 comments Diabetic retinopathy is a common eye disease affecting an estimated 40 to 45 percent of diabetics in the U.S. This eye condition causes tiny blood vessels that carry blood and nutrients to the retina to swell, leak or even become blocked. When the vessels become blocked, new blood vessels may develop. These vessels are very fragile and can leak blood into the back of the eye, damaging the eye and even causing vision loss or blindness. Preventing diabetic retinopathy Diabetic retinopathy is the result of a medical condition – diabetes – but can be further induced by an unhealthy lifestyle... |
How Eye Disease Develops from DiabetesFriday, May 17 2013 - 0 comments People with diabetes are at higher risk of developing eye disease, such as diabetic retinopathy. The National Eye Institute estimates that 40 to 45 percent of all Americans with diabetes have some form of diabetic retinopathy . High blood glucose levels can cause the tiny blood vessels that nourish the retina to swell, leak or even become blocked. As the blood vessels become blocked, the supply of blood and nourishment to the retina is cut off. This can result vision loss. To compensate, the retina may signal the body to produce more blood vessels, but these new vessels are fragile and can leak... |
What is Diabetic Retinopathy?Thursday, May 16 2013 - 0 comments Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness in adults 20 to 64 years of age. Diabetic retinopathy is a common eye disease in the back of the eye that causes blood vessels to swell, leak fluid or close off completely. With diabetic retinopathy, abnormal new blood vessels can also grow on the surface of the retina. Because diabetic retinopathy can cause blindness, early detection of the condition is vital. The National Eye Institute estimates that 40 to 45 percent of all Americans with diabetes have some form of diabetic retinopathy. The incidence of diabetic retinopathy is typically associated with... |
Limbal Relaxing Incisions (LRI) for treatment of astigmatism and cataractsWednesday, May 15 2013 - 0 comments Astigmatism is an eye condition in which the shape of the cornea or lens of the eye is abnormally curved. Due to the irregular curvature, light does not hit the eye in such a way that it is properly focused on the retina and both distance and close range vision is affected. People who are nearsighted or farsighted may still have astigmatism. Symptoms of astigmatism include blurry vision, eyestrain, headaches and squinting to see clearly. Some people may have astigmatism, as well as another refractive error, such as nearsightedness or farsightedness. There are several treatment options for correcting... |
Treating dry eyesThursday, May 09 2013 - 0 comments Dry Eye Syndrome is an irritating, uncomfortable and sometimes even painful, common eye condition caused by a lack of tear production or an improper chemical balance in the tears. Without proper tears to keep the eyes moist and lubricated, individuals with Dry Eye Syndrome may experience minor symptoms from an itching, burning or scratchy sensation in the eyes to more serious symptoms such as blurred vision. Read more about dry eyes in this article. There are a number of treatment options for dry eyes . The course of treatment often depends on the symptoms and type of dry eye experienced by the... |
What are dry eyes?Tuesday, May 07 2013 - 0 comments Dry Eye Syndrome, defined by chronic insufficient lubrication on the surface of the eye, is an uncomfortable condition. It is one of the most common complaints eye doctors hear from patients. Symptoms of dry eyes can range from minor, occasional discomfort or irritation to frequent pain in the eyes that for some can be debilitating. Dry eyes are caused by inadequate tear production. Our eyes require tears to wash out dust and debris and to stay moist. Healthy tears are comprised of oil, water and mucus. Individuals who suffer from dry eyes may not make enough tears to keep their eyes lubricated... |
Get The Facts About Oculoplastic SurgeryThursday, May 02 2013 - 0 comments When many people think of eye surgery, they think of LASIK, cataract surgery and other vision correction surgeries. In addition to these types of eye surgeries, there are many conditions in which cosmetic restoration surgery is needed. Eyelid surgery , called oculoplastic surgery is corrective and reconstructive surgery of the eyelids, tear ducts and orbit of the eye rather than corrective surgery to the cornea or lens of the eye itself. Conditions such as drooping upper eyelids, eyelids that turn inward or outward, eyelid growths, tear duct blockage and disfigurement from injuries, burns and birth... |
Treating Astigmatism and Cataracts with Toric Intraocular Lens ImplantsTuesday, April 30 2013 - 0 comments If you have been diagnosed with astigmatism, your eye doctor may have told you about toric contact lenses to correct vision problems due to astigmatism. Toric lenses are created with curvatures at different angles and have two different powers in them. Now there are also surgical options for individuals with astigmatism, such as LASIK laser vision correction, astigmatic keratotomy (AK), or limbal relaxing incisions (LRI). Limbal relaxing incision is commonly used to correct astigmatism during cataract surgery and involves making small incisions in the cornea to correct vision problems due to the... |
7 Vision Safety Tips for RunnersSunday, April 14 2013 - 0 comments Are you running in the Big D Texas Marathon ?

LASIK Alternative: ICLFriday, April 12 2013 - 0 comments Individuals ranging in ages 18-40 who have moderate to severe nearsightedness may benefit from ICL (Implantable Collamer® Lens), as a LASIK alternative . ICL, a lesser-known vision correction option, involves the placement of an artificial intraocular lens into the eye. The FDA approved the procedure in 2005 for the reduction and treatment of nearsightedness (myopia). For patients who may not otherwise be a good candidate for LASIK, ICL provides another alternative to glasses and contact lenses. The phakic intraocular lens used during ICL is different from the lens implanted during cataract... |

Rapha Gentleman's Race: East Coast
Photos by Jesse Burke
During the height of the summer of 2008, the Rapha Continental did what turned out to be a hellishly beautiful ride in the hills surrounding Litchfield, Connecticut. Little did we know that these same hills (combined with more than a few gravel roads) would become the East Coast's 2010 version of the Rapha Gentleman's Race. While last years edition saw the overtaking of New Paltz, NY in a fashion that surprised many with its idyllic landscapes and extended climbing, the word on the street this year was "gravel."
To say that everything went off "without a hitch" would be an understatement. Aside from a few flat tires and more than a few tired souls, there is not much more that could make for a perfect day on the bicycle. Combined team efforts along the way — pushing, pulling and generally working together — added a necessary element to a racing equation that it sometimes lacking in this department. Besides, if it takes two extra hands to ensure that everyone finishes together, then is that not the name of the game?
There were also a few surprises along the way, one of which was a bagpipe specialist at the finish line. The second came when the sun had gone down and the last team was rolling in via tandem, suddenly, without warning the sky exploded with a display of fireworks that seemed all for them. From the looks on their headlamp-lit faces, they were just as surprised as we, and while no one could discern what the fireworks meant, it only added to the delight of everyone around.
During the week that has passed we have received all manner of compliments as well as bids for next years course. There has even been the slightest rumblings of an autumn version? However, the best compliments usually come in the form of an experience. How cyclists relate to one another, more often than not, is through the mutual expression of pain. So, it should not come as a surprise that one of the best quotes of the day came from the Eastmans Team Captain. He turned, just as he was heading towards his car, glancing slightly over his shoulder to look from whence their team had come and said "Thanks for the suffering."

What sort of tires do you run on these races ?
Some of the stages look like they're covered in flints and rocks whicj would surely cut up road tires in a few minutes.
Are these just regular road bikes or cross bikes ?
I'm just curious.

Very good food and service, but bring your wallet!! Fleming's is chain but don't let that turn you off. While their Tucson location isn't their best it's still real good! Serious food for those who don't mind spending the bucks. This place is a notch or two above both Sullivan's and Mc Mahon's. For sure, Fleming's is a snob's paradise.
Haven't tried the food but Penelope at the bar is quick with service and very friendly. Drinks were cheap, around 3 bux for our Smirnoffs I think. The girl DJ was smokin and had us dancing all night!!!
Arguably the best Vietnamese restaurant in Tucson. The flavors are spot on! The service is fast and freindly. Best of all, you don't have to put up with the crowded noisy college atmosphere of Miss Saigon on a Friday night (or any other night for that matter).
You just don't get it. More for the rest of us!
So far the best Thai in Tucson (and I've had some of the best in LA). Nothing fancy, just good Thai food.
Many of the diners choose Pho, a traditional Viet soup. I have Pho here often because it is as good as the best Pho anywhere including Viet Nam. It can be ordered with chicken, beef, pork or just the soup. It is a filling meal.
Good food here, but you have to pick and choose. Salads are better than Sweet Tomato as is the fruit. Steaks if cooked right are good.
Stay away from some of the fried stuff and nasty side dishes.
The best sushi serving size in town. Fresh too. Always pleasant Pak and Aoki serve you up light conversation, too. You may walk in but, after filling up, you'll need to roll out.
YUM. Great appetizers offered for half off during their happy hour. Something for every member of the family.
Our favorite place if we're just craving Japanese and don't feel like spending a fortune. Half off select sushi rolls every day and great lunch box menu.
The food here is not as good as La Parrilla Suiza, but is good and has a yummy dessert menu. The service is 9/10 times very good.
The pizzas here are absolutely delightful and satisfying. I'd say that this is the only pizza place in Tucson that rivals 1702.
Always a great place to eat if you are willing to spend the cash (menu is expensive but made fresh). Great wine list and great (but small) selection of dishes. The appetizers are really good too. Would not recommend the veal because of recent investigations that indicate the use of ham instead of veal.
Great pizza and great beer, however, the service is sometimes scant, understaffed, and takes a long time to get food and refills.
The food is awesome, tasty, and big variety. Salad bar is so fresh and lots of organic items to choose from. All of that for around $10. Atmosphere is A+ too.
Previously I failed to mention the wonderful service. Both friendly and professional, the service staff struck that perfect balance between the feeling of being stalked on one hand to the sensation of being neglected and abandoned on the other. Nicely done!
Eaten here once; will again. Rundown:
*Decent atmosphere
*Friendly staff
*Great curry
*Specialty drinks overpriced
*Slightly overpriced overall, but justifiable
Eaten here twice. Rundown:
*Nicely rounded beer selection
*Relaxed yet refined atmosphere
*Med-Lg sized portions
*Balanced flavors in all dishes had (fish burrito, salmon salad w/pasta)
*Need to stay open later (suggestion: hire a manager to keep it open later during school to bring in some financial aid :) )
*Deserts, though visually appealing were ho-hum
Such a fun little restaurant! You would never expect how nice it is from the outside. Service was friendly and probably the best sushi I've had in Tucson so far.

Andrea's Roommate (Chapter 4)Andrea awoke in her own bed. "Funny," she thought, "I don't remember getting into my own bed..."- Although, to be fair, Andrea didn't recall much of last night, and while the events weren't entirely memorable, this was slightly confusing to her. Despite having odd amnesia, Andrea didn't awaken hungover (a side effect of the amount of food she consumed, something she was about to notice). Rolling over on her side, Andrea closed her eyes blearily for a moment before resolving to get out of bed, something she did with less grace than usual. "Wow, I feel really... Bloated..." Andrea murmured aloud, before placing a hand on her quite noticeab

For some reason or another you just couldn't seem to get to sleep so at the moment you were laying in bed watching tv with the hopes that you'd start getting tired. Unfortunately it didn't seem to be working and after about an hour of staring at the tv you began to ponder whether you should go to the kitchen and fix yourself a late night snack seeing as how you were starting to get kind of hungry. There was one problem though, you had a minor fear of the dark or more precisely what you believed lurked in it.
Garry x Reader [Ib] (1/3)"Wow... this place is getting creepier by the second," Garry shivered, his violet hair shaking as he twitched due to nervousness.Wrapping his arms around his chest, he glanced around the semi-dark hallways.The hall was pretty much empty - save for the small table with a vase, and a few paintings that were hung on the grey walls."Ahah!" His eyes lit up as he strode quickly over to the vase, pulling out the wilting blue rose from his pocket. He swiftly dropped the rose into the vase, almost instantly feeling refreshed. "Damn paintings," he murmured. "If only they'd stop trying to kill me, then I may start to feel better about this place."Silence followed, and Garry face palmed. "And...now I'm talking to myself," he spoke, his voice muffled by his hand. "Is someone there?" Garry whipped his head round, eyes wide and alert. Did he really just hear another person's voice!? Winding his slender fingers around the rose's stem, he pulled it back out of the vase and tucked it b

There are two types of that creature: the pure evil and the pure good. What creature is this you may ask? It's a vampire. All I remember is the evil attacking me from the shadows. I thought I was dead, but I was saved by another. His hand and face covered in blood. He offered his hand to me that faithful night. As I looked into those eyes, I became enslaved to a vampire. He brought me close to him and that's when my life began." ------------------------------------------------------ You attend the elite s

Jill Scott graces the cover of Essence's October issue with her amazing natural hair. Jill who has previously relaxed her hair for over two years, is stepping out into the spotlight and onto a Essence's cover with her natural hair. We got a preview of this new 'do from Jill at her performance at the Somersot House in England where she rocked her big chopped hair on stage.
This is the second time Jill has stepped out into the spotlight with a natural hair style and we think she looks beautiful, radiant and better than ever. We're sure the natural hair community is very happy to see her rocking her naturally curly hair again. We know Jill is a fan of weaves wigs, blow-drying and straightening her hair, but we think her natural hair looks best! There's nothing wrong with trying different hairstyles or experimenting, but our vote is natural!
Here is a preview of what you'll read in the October issue of Essence:
"Jill Scott has much to be excited about these days. After a tumultuous few years that saw the end of her first marriage, a broken engagement to her son's father, an acrimonious split from her longtime record label Hidden Beach and the abrupt end of her HBO series The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, life is looking up for the singer. She's a mother and a maverick; she's starring in a TV movie — Lifetime's all-Black revamp of the 1980s classic Steel Magnolias — and she's still packing in crowds on tour. Here, the soulful songstress—rocking a close-cropped natural for the October issue cover—talks to ESSENCE about 'the lights coming on' after turning 40, finding her stride…and what's next on the horizon."
Exclusive excerpt from Lola Ogunnaike's October cover story:
"Scott has always enjoyed experimenting with her hair and loves a good wig — 'hair hats,' she calls them — but lately she's been rocking a close-cropped natural. It suits her. 'This,' she says, stroking her head, 'is the simplest form of myself. I look in the mirror and it's like, Hey, there you go. What's up, girl?'"
Make sure to check out the October issue of Essence, on stands now, to read the full story.
Read on to find out how to get Jill's cover girl look.

I think she looks just amazing since she been my hair idol since forever. I just love Jill for Philly. This cover shows her WOMAN POWER! Go my girl.

Town Government
The Town of Lyons held elections for the positions of Mayor and the six Trustee in April. Mayor Julie Van Domelen, running for her "official" second term again ran unopposed, and won in a landslide, garnering 77 percent of the vote (she might be slipping, last time she ran unopposed she got a little over 82 percent).Mayor Van Domelen's first one-year term [April of 2009 to April of 2010] to replace Mayor Kris Hicar, who resigned mid-term in December of 2008, didn't count against Van Domelen's term limit status. Five of the six Trustee incumbents; Sandy Banta, Ed Bruder, Cathy Jacobson, LaVern Johnson, and Kirk Udovich, decided to stand for re-election. Only Trustee Kathy Carroll chose not to run. Refreshingly, seven other citizens also threw their

Take Richard home
Published at 16:07, Wednesday, 06 February 2013
Those ghostly cries, muffled and eerily diluted by exhaust fumes hovering and swirling over Leicester, seem unmistakable ... now that we know.
"A hearse, a hearse, my kingdom for a hearse!"
Poor old Richard wanted to go home. Well, of course he did. Wouldn't you?
Hundreds of years buried in the wrong place, most recently under an undignified downtown council pay and display car park; separated by miles and centuries from his beloved home county. That's a clamping too far, by anybody's reckoning. And a very poor deal for a monarch.
Richard III, the last King of England to die in battle, has been unearthed. His old bones have been confirmed as undeniably regal, by the magic of DNA testing.
They are, beyond reasonable doubt, the remains of the Plantagenet ruler who may or may not have locked up two princes in The Tower (depending on whose side your history teacher was on) to grab the throne and trip off to Bosworth for the last major scrap in the Wars of the Roses ... the premier football hooligan clashes of the 15th century.
University of Leicester scientists and archaeologists have done a tremendous job to release and rescue Richard from his successive winters of discontent under Tarmac.
Their exhaustive efforts to identify his old bones have been extraordinarily spectacular. But marvellous as all that has been – has it been enough?
Exhumed from his ignominious resting place, Richard still won't make it home. He's to be buried in Leicester Cathedral – a final indignity for the Yorkist warrior king.
Should he not be granted the state hearse for which he has called down the ages and transported with due ceremony and white roses to York Minster? At least there belief in his innocence from all princes' imprisonment charges is still strong – and he has his own museum.
But Leicester? He'll rage for all eternity there, and no mistake. Take him home. It's the least the poor soul deserves.
