Fund-raising effort leads to designs on a future fashion empire
22 November 2012
When UCL medical student Har-preet 'Pete' Ahluwalia wanted to raise funds for the Hindu Society, custom-designed T-shirts was a natural choice. The fashion aficionado had something special in mind: the items would be vinyl-pressed rather than ink-printed, to give a high-quality and longer-lasting finish.
The unusual designs led to orders from the Pakistani Society and Rare FM, among others. So Pete set up three o nine, named for his room number in the halls of residence, and opened a pop-up store in Bluewater Shopping Centre, Kent, achieving a turnover of £28,000 within three months.
Inspired by his initial success, and with a triedand- tested concept, Pete was able to present a business plan with a set of impressive numbers to UCL's Bright Ideas Awards committee. Tim Barnes, Executive Director of UCL Advances, says: "A lot of the ideas we hear involve social networking websites, the outcomes of which in terms of monetary value is hard to predict. Pete's stood out as one whose potential success was easy to quantify. And his enthusiasm for his product was infectious."
Armed with a loan of £10,000, Pete set about building a website, sourcing suppliers and publicising his wares, which have since been featured on Channel 4's How to Look Good Naked, with Gok Wan. He also received sound advice from Valery Ushakov, a Russian clothing entrepreneur and LBS Sloan Fellows Programme student that the HELO programme, run by UCL Advances, put him in touch with. Pete says: "Valery helped me to see that even without a store, I can still develop a successful brand with clever marketing strategies – and complete my degree."
Now in his final year at UCL, Pete's future plans include a premium label, with Swarovski crystals and other special touches, and an interactive website and iPhone app, whereby customers can upload, store and share designs. He says: "As a medical student, I knew I could not do well in my studies and run a business without the help of others. UCL Advances provided finance, mentoring and general all-round moral support which has seen me through some very busy, often overwhelmingly so, times."

The popularity of applications such as Google Maps and Flickr has Web developers flocking to the technologies that make these rich, interactive programs work. But industry watchers caution the Web scripting components known collectively as AJAX can be more complex - and less network friendly - than they might first appear.
The popularity of applications such as Google Maps and Flickr has Web developers flocking to the technologies that make these rich, interactive programs work. But industry watchers caution the Web scripting components known collectively as Asynchronous JavaScript + XML can be more complex - and less network friendly - than they might first appear.
Google wasn't the first to exploit these technologies, but the company did so in a massive scale and in a very public way. Amazon's A9.com search engine also makes use of AJAX-style development, as does photo-sharing site Flickr.
The corporate role
Increasingly, corporations are considering the role AJAX technologies can play in businesses that aren't catering to millions of consumers. Industry experts say there's a place for AJAX in the enterprise, but IT staffs need to evaluate and implement the technologies in a prudent way.
The first step is assembling a cross-functional team, says Joe Skorupa, research vice president at Gartner. It's important for companies to get Web developers together with IT staff who know about security, database design, server administration, networks and desktop administration, he says.
Developers need to design AJAX applications from the start to account for the number of TCP connections that could potentially be open at any one time, as well as the effect of continuous content refreshes on server loads. Adequate prototyping and testing are imperative, he says. "If you do that, you can come up with some cool stuff that will delight your users."
AJAX is less about any single technology than it is an approach to developing applications that are more responsive than typical HTML pages. One of the most-appealing features is that AJAX applications don't require plug-ins or other code to be installed on client machines.
Instead of using the familiar page-submit/page-refresh model, AJAX applications keep content current by refreshing only the parts of the screen that have changed. In addition, AJAX applications use the power of the user's PC and Web browser to perform many of the tasks that traditionally are done on a server. For example, a user can sort data or edit tables without sending or receiving data from a server.
Companies are looking to incorporate AJAX technologies into new and existing software programs. For instance, a company could revamp a Web application by adding real-time updates of such data as account balances or inventory levels. Instead of a user having to request this information, a developer could design the application to automatically poll a server for changes every 15 seconds, or go looking for an update every time a user moves a cursor over the data field.
But it's not always easy to add AJAX elements to an existing Web application. It depends how entwined the application logic and presentation layer are. If they are distinct, a developer may have to modify only a small percentage of the application code base.
"We've seen instances where they are separate enough that it's extremely easy to do. Even a client/server application could have been developed under an n-tier infrastructure," says Luis Derechin, CEO and cofounder of JackBe, which makes AJAX toolkits and infrastructure platforms. "Other times, it's so embedded that it's a mess."
Client/server considerations
Another factor driving corporate interest in AJAX is the chance to move client/server applications to the Web. Companies can mimic the features and look and feel of a client/server application while gaining the management and administration benefits of a Web application, says Ted Farrell, chief architect for application development tools at Oracle.
"People have started missing their old desktop clients, where things really were interactive and dynamic," Farrell says. "So more push has been made to keep the single distribution model of the Web, so companies don't have to go through the hassle of distributing software to everyone's desktop, but still get the rich interaction associated with a desktop client."
Another key feature attributed to AJAX applications is their ability to reduce the network load compared with traditional Web applications.
In theory there should be fewer round trips to the server and more client-side processing of the information if programming is done well, says David Boloker, CTO of emerging technologies at IBM. "If you're sending down XML and then the client works on the XML, as long as you're not continuously sending little bits of XML up and down, the server is going to have a lot more cycles free," he says.
Gartner's Skorupa agrees. "Well-coded, well-structured AJAX applications can improve responsiveness, because you can do incremental updates to the screen, rather than pulling everything down, which can reduce the number of round trips," he says.
However, some of the things Web developers are doing with AJAX to make applications more responsive can have a negative effect on network performance, Skorupa says. For example, if there are 10 embedded links on a particular screen, developers use AJAX technologies to open all 10 links and download the information even before a user requests it. "Just in case you might want it, it will be there," he says. "That could put a whole bunch of extra load on the network."
Such pitfalls are dangerous. People have a tendency to think AJAX is easy, because it encompasses familiar technologies. But consider the resources Google employed to prototype, test, tweak and deploy its AJAX applications, Skorupa says. Google has the means to hire some of the very best programmers in the business, but most enterprises don't.
"You've got to assume a lot of enterprise code is not going to be that well written; it's going to be added piecemeal to current applications, and it's going to be written by people who've never done it before and who don't understand the programming model," he says.
Right now, a lot of companies are experimenting with AJAX in small doses, which is a good way to start. But until companies think strategically about how the proper use of these technologies can facilitate a clear business objective, they shouldn't expect miracles by adding an AJAX widget to a Web site. "You can't take an old Pinto, slap on a new coat of paint and expect it to outperform a Ferrari," Derechin says.
Hype vs. realityIt's true that companies can create responsive Web applications using the Web-scripting components known collectively as Asynchronous JavaScript+XML (AJAX). But not everything that's said about AJAX-style development is true.

Blake Roter, <i>Hullabaloo</i> Contributing Writer
For the first time in school history, the Tulane women's golf team has cracked the Golfweek Top 20 poll, taking No. 16. This ranking was after a stellar fourth place finish at last weekend's Franklin Street Trust/Tar Heel Invitational in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The Wave finished ahead of nine nationally ranked programs in the tournament.
Sophomore Lindsay Hulwick, individually No. 37 in the nation, led the Green Wave attack at UNC with a three-round total of four-over par 220. That was good enough to earn her a tie for sixth place in the individual contest. Hulwick simply got better as the tournament progressed, shooting an even 72 on the final day of competition after 74's in the first two rounds.
Junior Carolin Landmann contributed a seven-over 223 to the team effort and took home a tie for 21st to show for it. Her best round was also her last as she carded a one-over 73. Even with scores of 72 and 73 from Hulwick and Landmann, respectively, the best round of the final day still belonged to sophomore Alexis Wooster who entered the clubhouse with a one-under 71. She showed great improvement after her disappointing previous rounds when she shot 80 and 78.
Wooster's 40th position, along with freshman Liliana Alvarez in 27th and senior Kathy Schafer at 41st, helped the Wave finish at the top. No. 5 Duke won the tournament with a score of 13-over par 877, one shot ahead of No. 2 Oklahoma State.
The Green Wave takes their No. 16 ranking with them to Florida today, to play in the USF/Beacon Woods Invitational outside of Tampa. Any improvement on that ranking would again make history for Tulane women's golf.

SCOTLAND, Md. (WUSA9) -- Investigators are on the scene after a body was discovered at Point Lookout State Park, according to Maryland Natural Resources Police on Monday morning.
A spokesperson with Natural Resources Police said there is no reason to believe the death is suspicious.
The body of a 56-year-old waste water employee was found near the main holding tank at 3:30 a.m. after his wife reported him missing, say officials.
Police say he likely slipped or suffered a medical issue.

: I think you are a bit off the mark with your criticism. First of all,
: Cal Spas does not make their own jets. They, like most tub
: manufacturers, source their jets from jet manufacturers. As TomD has
: pointed out, most current Cal Spa production uses Waterway jets.
: Frankly, these same jets are used in many other brands of tubs and
: deterioration of jet parts is generally due to bad water
: chemistry/water quality issues. Defective plastic, when used in jets
: from any manufacturer, results in cracks in the jet body and
: subsequent leakage. It does not result in jet nozzles coming apart.
: I'm not a big fan of Cal Spas, but in this case they are not at fault.
: John
You are full of it. I paid 5k for a spa made by calspas and i have had to replace all the jets within 2 years because they came "apart" . Are You willing to pay 3-4 hundred dollars for something every two years when you were told it has a 5 yr warranty (which calspas does not honor). Uh, they only had a 1 year warranty, I wonder why? Cheap , cheap, cheap. I'm not a fan of them either, but the alternative in this area is worse that them at this point. Bottom line-take care of your customers or you will be out of business.....BTW I bought it at Watsons which, I'm about to file a complaint with the local BBB. If I ever knew the thing would cost me more in 5 years than the selling price I never would have bought it. Just recently had both the "safety suction" switches go out, before which I had to have the pump replaced (had to threaten them to get it under warranty). Sorry to ramble, but don't take up for the maufacturer's, they have the parts made to their specifications. So if the part "doesn't cut it" it's because they (the manufacurer) would rather cut a corner and make a profit during and after the sale at the consumers expense (guess that is the bottom line here, huh?). At the very least they (Calspas) ought to stand behind their product and not hide behind the water quality issue, which is bullshit in this case...BTW they checked my water quality and it was perfect. Go figure......

Alabama at Missouri: Tide goes missing in second half
Published: Saturday, January 18, 2014 at 4:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 18, 2014 at 4:27 p.m.
COLUMBIA, Mo. | For a half, the University of Alabama men's basketball team was in Saturday's game.
For the second half, "out of it" doesn't do the performance justice.
The Crimson Tide had its worst half of the season, seeing a one-point halftime deficit turn into a 68-47 loss at Missouri. The Tigers outscored Alabama 37-17 in the half. UA made just four of 23 shots from the field in the half, a wretched 17 percent.
The loss was the most one-sided defeat for Alabama since a 27-point loss at Florida in March 2011. None of the Crimson Tide's previous eight defeat this year had been by more than 10 points.
"We struggled in the second half," Alabama coach Anthony Grant said. "We were inconsistent in our offense and we had a hard time getting shots to fall. Relly (Trevor Releford) really struggled today, but we have got to get to a point where other people are contributing when that happens.
"I wish I had that explanation, so I could solve it. And it wasn't just offense. They shot 52 percent in the second half and got to the line 18 times. I thought we were more advanced defensively than that.
Despite falling behind 7-0 in the first four minutes, Alabama played fairly well in the first half, taking the lead on three occasions and trailing just 31-30 at intermission.
Missouri dominated Alabama in the opening minutes of the second half, however. The Tigers started on an 17-4 run, stretching their lead to 48-34 with 11:58 to play. Alabama never regrouped.
Oddly, Alabama had four double-figure scorers in the game. Shannon Hale led UA with 12 points, while Retin Obasohan scored 11. Releford had 10 points before fouling out. Levi Randolph also scored 10.
Jabari Brown had 24 points to lead Missouri (14-3, 2–2 SEC). Jordan Clarkson added 16 for the Tigers.
"If we are active and into our defense, it can be a factor, and I thought this was the best game we have had as far as being active on defense," Tiger coach Frank Haith said. "Our attack was much better today."
Alabama (8-9, 2-2) returns home Thursday to face No. 7 Florida.
"Once again, we've got to regroup, dust ourselves off and move forward," Grant said.

Sony Home Entertainment"Breaking Bad" is really setting the bar high in terms of creativity for complete series box sets.
Sony released the complete series Tuesday. Naturally, as huge fans of the AMC show, we pre-ordered the set to have it delivered release day.
It comes with a lot of great extras — a never-before-seen two-hour making of the series, a collector's coin, and even a Los Pollos Hermanos apron(!) — however, we were really impressed with the unique packaging of the discs.
It's clear an immense amount of detail went into making this box set feel special for fans.
Forget everything you know about regular DVD cases. Each season is held together by magnets — a clear reference to the series.
Better yet, you may notice a bunch of strange images drawn on each season's disc set.
Kirsten Acuna / Business InsiderWhat's up with that?
If you watched series creator Vince Gilligan unbox the series ahead of its release last week, you'll know you can put the clear plastic discs together to form an image iconic from each season. Gilligan suggested using them as drink coasters.
Pretty cool.
Let's take a look at them all!

Adapted by Millie Ferrer2
Parenting can be a challenge in any family, but living in a stepfamily can add more issues to the parenting role. Children look at the world differently than adults. Partners forming step-families expect joy, peace, and happiness that may have been lost in earlier relationships. Children may view the stepfamily much differently.
Much of what children understand depends on their age. At each age, there are certain feelings and reactions that children will experience. For some children it is a happy event to have a new family with more people around. For others, the many changes and uncertainties are difficult and challenging. Generally, children ages 9 to 15 may have the hardest time adapting to a new family situation.
Research indicates that it can take four years or more for a stepfamily to seem like a family. It can even take 18 to 24 months for children to be friendly to a new stepparent. There are many differences, many personalities and many difficult situations. That is very normal.
Learning to handle new relationships in a positive way enables the stepfamily to move toward the happiness that the partners are seeking. Stepfamilies must work at being understanding and flexible, and develop a style of their own.
What can the adults in a stepfamily do to work toward the happiness that they are seeking?
Take your time, and expect love and care to come slowly through shared experiences with stepchildren.
Discipline may work better if the biological parent takes the lead with the stepparent's support until the stepparent-stepchild relationship is stronger.
Give your family and yourself permission to try things differently. Since there are no rules or perfect ways to be a stepfamily, find out what "fits" for your family.
Expect negotiation and conflict to be part of everyday life in a stepfamily.
Give children accurate information about what is happening in the new family that is appropriate for their age and stage of development.
Discuss rules and roles, and make them clear so that the children understand what is expected.
Try to understand children's feelings, especially when they are not what you expected.
Expect family members to grieve over the loss of their old family, or the loss of living like a first-time married family. Talk about these feelings.
Share negative statements and feelings about the absent parent with someone other than the child.
Assure the children that love is not limited. They can like or love all the members of the family, including a stepparent, and still love and care about the absent parent.
Spend time alone with each child and in various combinations of family members. But do not force togetherness, especially with teenagers.
Learn as much as possible about child development and effective parenting and stepparenting practices.
Work cooperatively with the absent parent—far in advance—to make the needed arrangements for holidays and other special occasions.
Build your own stepfamily traditions. Include family members in discussions about changing old traditions.
Pay close attention to your couple relationship. Schedule time together on a daily and weekly basis.
Keep fun and romance in your relationship.
Present a united front to the children when dealing with expectations and discipline.
Take turns actively listening to each others' concerns without becoming defensive.
Consider granting a limited power of attorney to the stepparent for use in emergencies.
Communicate about family finances with your partner on a regular basis.
Review all insurance policies for coverage and beneficiary status.
Review and revise your wills or make one if you do not have one.
Join a support group for stepfamilies if you would like support from others having stepfamily experiences.
Seek professional financial and counseling services, if necessary, to help you over major hurdles.
Keep your sense of humor. A little laughter can brighten the day.
A home study course for stepfamilies with children in the home and other stepfamily resources are available through your local county extension office.

Fresh Android Apps for July 22: VMware, Green Farm, Tour de France 2011
by Ian Black
In today's fresh Android apps, you can get a window into your Windows PC (VWware View for Android), become a virtual farmer (Green Farm), or role play your way into the most famous cycling race in the world (Tour de France 2011).
VMware View for Android (Free)
Apple can't have all the remote desktop fun. Combine this app with VMware View 4.6 and you can access your Windows desktop from your Android tablet. The app supports touch gestures but also lets you place a virtual floating transparent trackpad up on your tablet's screen to move and click around your desktop as you would normally. Tap three fingers on the screen to display a QWERTY keyboard for typing. The app even supports interaction with your MS Office application like Outlook.
Green Farm (Free)
Perhaps if you were previously living deep under the earth or never heard of Facebook, you might think this game was a new idea.You own a farm and it's up to your smart choices whether your crops flourish into a green-with-envy going enterprise or the land goes fallow from your lack of constant ADHD attention spurts. Sound familiar? Unfortunately, this app can't connect to your online Green Farm up at GAMELOFT's web hub, but it does let you create a nice companion farm on your device. Look, I made it through this write up without mentioning Farmville, once!
Tour de France 2011 – Official ($3.40)
The Tour de France runs through this Sunday. You could watch it on TV, but you may want to get in on the action yourself by playing this official game. With a focus on realism, this game lets you control individual cyclists or an entire racing team. You'll find actual profiles of real riders and the real jerseys given to riders – polka dot for best climber, green for best sprinter, and the famous yellow jersey for the leader and winner.

i'm easily discouraged by the scale these days. i've started exercising more, and my calorie limit has gone down by about 300 or so (thanks SP :P ), but my weight hasn't gone anywhere since before the new year. it went up after Christmas but is taking its sweet time coming back down now.
i keep reading things about how it's normal for your weight to go up when you start a new exercise program. i'm trying to keep that in mind, but it's so hard to stay positive when you have a goal and can't reach it, even when you feel like you're doing things right.
i weigh myself every Sunday morning, as soon as i hop out of bed and use the bathroom (sometimes i hop on mid-week out of curiosity, but those aren't "official" weigh-ins). every Sunday i toy with the idea of just stopping the weigh-ins altogether. part of my problem with Weight Watchers was that i was chaining myself to scale readouts and point values, forgetting that this process is supposed to be about ME, not numbers. i've come too far for that to happen again. i know that i've made progress with SP without obsessing as much about what the scale says--i even tell other people that there are other ways to measure success. but i don't practice what i preach anymore. i feel like i'm falling back into those old habits.

The scale is not the only tool!! How do you clothes fit.... do you feel healthier, stronger? The fact that you've been consistent in your efforts is victory in itself.....The scale will eventually concede...we can do this!!

I have been stuck at the same weight going up and down a few pounds for months. I do get down about it but I try not to weigh myself. I have actually upped my exercise and use this as a non scale victory. I feel stronger and stronger, I can do more physically and above all I can control my weight. I finally stopped going up and down like a yoyo. For once, I lost weight and haven't gained it all back plus another 10! That in itself keeping weight off is a victory. If you are plateauing a way to think of it is temporary maintenance. After all, one day we will have to hold our goal weight in check. I hope this helps. I feel for you and know exactly where you are coming from.

I know how you feel...I was knocking myself out at the gym (my personal trainer enjoys her job)...my clothes are getting looser...but...the weight is still there!!!
at the gym, there is a 5 lb blob of fat and a 5 lb toned muscle on display...both weigh the same, but the muscle has a lot less mass....it could be your fat cells are turning into muscle ....do not give up!! we are all in the same boat...just watch what you eat...watch those hidden sweets...keep exercising and we will make it...
I think it's discouragement....not the scale that is our biggest enemy...we must be patent...this journey is a marathon..not a sprint...it will take time...
please keep in touch

It was with his usual disarming frankness that Arsène Wenger responded to an inquiry as to whether he would be signing the 20-year-old Auxerre striker Yaya Sanogo, available on a free transfer from the Ligue 2 club. "We are advanced in talks with him but it's not done," Wenger said. "I'm very confident it will be."

Yeah. I really like the one's worn vs CU on his KO return. OU's def was very tough that year. I think Davis ended with 90 some yards. Just enough to go over 1,000.

Touchscreen supply chain shifting under Apple's influence
Apple's changes to iPhone 5 and iPad displays are shifting the supply chain for the touchscreen industry, according to NPD DisplaySearch.
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) recently adopted two new touch sensor structures for its mobile devices--in-cell for the iPhone 5 and GF2 (double-sided ITO films) for the iPad. This shift is expected to spur a doubling of in-cell touchscreen shipments this year.
In-cell touch technology integrates touch-sensing circuitry with the LCD array, resulting in a thinner smartphone, explained AppleInsider. In addition to the iPhone 5, Sony's Xperia P and Huawei's Ascent P6 use the in-cell touch technology, the report noted.
NPD DisplaySearch predicts that in-cell touch displays will increase from 7.3 percent of mobile phone shipments in 2012 to 13.7 percent in 2013, while shipments of GG DITO (double-sided ITO glass) structure will drop from 10.3 percent to 0.6 percent. Shipments of tablet GF2 sensor structure will rise from 4.7 percent in 2012 to 28.4 percent in 2013, while shipments of GG DITO structure will decline from 37.2 percent to 8.1 percent.
"Mobile phone and tablet PC touch technologies and sensor structures are evolving quickly, due in large part to Apple's move away from GG structure to in-cell touch technology and GF2. Apple's high market share in these categories means that any technological movement is felt throughout the component supply chain," said Calvin Hsieh, research director at NPD DisplaySearch.
Touch panel penetration in notebook PCs is expected to grow to 18 percent, due to price declines for one glass solution touch modules and an increase in the penetration of low-cost strengthened sensor glass. OGS will account for 83.5 percent of notebook PC touch sensors in 2013, while SSG will reach 5.6 percent, according to NPD.

04/30/2012, Georgetown, Exumas, Bahamas
We left TCI on Friday in cloudy weather - plus, it had been cloudy and sprinkely all week. Fri, Sat and Sun on passage were the same-cloudy with some rain. It is sooooo humid we can hardly stand it!! The sheets feel wet, your clean clothes feel wet-ugh. We arrived yesterday (Sun) in Georgetown before noon. Could not leave the boat cuz you can't check in on a Sunday. This morning - rain, rain, and more rain. Some 28-32 knt winds too. We have now spent 4 full days on the boat. Dale went in to check us in but that just meant he was soaked to the skin. We have been playing Yahtzee, Cribbage, cards and 1 movie. (Yes, some school work too). Now, dinner and another movie :-). There are lots of cruisers here. They must be getting stir crazy as there has been singing on the VHF. What a hoot!!
04/28/2012, Nearing Long Island
It's 9:00 pm, I am on watch and we are going to get to our waypoint at Cape Santa Maria by 4:30 or 5:00 a.m. Dale slowed us down cuz at one point our arrival was 2:00 a.m. Now it looks like we will head straight to Georgetown on Great Exuma Island instead of anchoring. We should be there just after noon!! I love being ahead of schedule.
04/27/2012, Mayaguana, Bahamas
We left Provo at 6:45 a.m., crossed the Caicos Bank toward West Caicos and headed toward Mayaguana. It is possible to check in there by we arrived too late anyway. So, up went the Q flag and we settled in for the night. We were anchored inside a big reef that runs along the island. We had to pick our way in and throw down the anchor in a sandy spot. Before it got dark we saw another boat anchored off to our right. We had a nice sail over - 59 miles with a beam wind about 15 knts. Our plan is to get up early again and head for the north cape of Long Island, round the cape and anchor. It's 170 miles so we'll be doing another overnighter. Weather looks good so off we go!!
See. they look really bored.
04/26/2012, Provo, TCI
Before we left TCI we had to visit the one and only historic site on the island. Near the anchorage is a hill where you can walk to the top and see a bunch of carvings from some of the early inhabitants of Provo. I guess they go back to the 1700's. The kids thought it was kinda ho-hum. Dale had to walk over and check us out of the country so I figured we could all use a little exercise!!
Dilly Dally is on the left - another boat is behind us so it is hard to tell. At least 5 other boats in the anchorage are out of the picture. Still - not a crowded place!

Neighbors Twitter, blog to keep criminals at bay
COLUMBUS, Ohio Cruise down the tree-lined streets of the Old Oaks neighborhood on a summer evening and know this: Someone is watching you.
It might be Richard Vickers, who records your license plate number in a notebook as he retrieves gun shell casings from the sidewalk while out on his nightly walk. Or it might be Doug Motz, who alerts via text message: "Watch out for the green van lurking in the alley."
Like the members of this well-oiled block watch group in central Ohio, neighbors across the country are using Twitter, blogs, e-mail and street patrols to help thwart crime. While some groups form after break-ins or muggings, there are signs of increased interest as law enforcement agencies are strained by layoffs and furloughs amid ballooning budget deficits.
"This is our neighborhood," says Vickers, a lawyer who moonlights as block watch captain. "Why should we allow people to force us out of here?"
More than 20,000 block watch groups are registered on the National Sheriffs' Association Web site, compared to about 5,000 just four years ago, said Chris Tutko, the association's director of neighborhood watch programs.
"There's a big push on to learn how to do it and how to get people involved," says Tutko, who trains law enforcers in running watch groups.
In most cities, wannabe block watch members must be trained by police in how to identify and respond to criminal behavior. The first step seems almost quaint: Talk to your neighbors, police say.
After a string of kidnappings and home invasions in Atlanta last year, indignant residents founded Safe Atlanta For Everyone, which coordinates a watch network on the city's east side. Their efforts took on new urgency when the financially strapped city ordered furloughs from December to July, forcing police and other municipal workers to take eight more hours off every week.
Block watch members tweet a constant stream of crime alerts to a privacy-protected Twitter address. One of the group's founders, Donna Williamson, sets out on foot during her lunch break with a cell phone and camera in search of what she calls "Twitter-worthy" behavior.
One tweet, posted by a resident last August: "black male dark glasses blue cap baggy jeans yellow/black umbrella 'wrong address.' Now in neighor's yard."
Jittery inhabitants of Windmill Ranches, an upscale gated community in Weston, Fla., started a block watch last year after strangers tried to slip past a security guard and follow them inside, says Broward County Sheriff's Deputy David Schupp.
Vigilance wasn't enough for residents of Kirkwood, a middle-class Atlanta neighborhood. Two years ago they pooled their money to form the Kirkwood Security Patrol and hire an off-duty police officer to roam the streets in an unmarked car.
"If there's been an area where there's been a lot of car break-ins, he'll go and do a stakeout to see if he can catch anybody," resident Emily Gest says.
Carrie Davis, staff council for the American Civil Liberties Union in Ohio, says block watch members who aren't trained by police should be cautious of overstepping legal boundaries.
"You have a right to observe what's going on in the street, but that doesn't give you a right to go peer in your neighbor's window," Davis says.
In rare cases, neighborly advances can end in violence. Near Salt Lake City, a neighbor was shot and paralyzed while driving around looking for thieves on July 22 after several car break-ins in rural Bluffdale, Salt Lake County Sheriff's Lt. Don Hutson said.
Twenty new block watch groups have sprouted since January in Columbus, where police Chief Walter Distelzweig had warned that as many as 300 officers could be laid off if a proposed citywide income tax increase failed. The levy passed Aug. 4.

This bug only occurs when dragging a child page on top of a parent page. Dragging a child page within the tree under a parent page works fine.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Add a Parent Page with two child pages, "Child Page 1" and "Child Page 2"
2. Click Manage > Page, and click the arrow next to "Public Pages" to display the Welcome Page and Parent Page.
3. Click the arrow next to the Parent Page to display the two child pages. (Shown in OriginalDisplayOrder.JPG)
4. Click Child Page 1 and drag Child Page 1 to the Parent Page. The user will see a green circle with a plus sign before releasing (Shown in DropOnTopOfParent.JPG). This will move Child Page 1 to the bottom of the tree (Shown in NewDisplayOrder.JPG)
5. Click "Save"
6. Click the arrow next to the Parent Page. Notice that the display order has reverted back to the original order.
7. Refresh the page. The new display order will not have saved; mousing over the Parent Page will reveal the original display order instead of the new one(Shown in WhatLiferayDisplays.JPG)
However, drag and drop within the tree works. If the user drags and drops within the tree (Shown in DropWithinTree.JPG), the display order will update correctly and display correctly in Liferay.

I take Vicodin and need surgery ..just didnt know if this drug will affect the anaesthesia ..please help
Answers (4)
7 Dec 2011
It could but all you need to do is make your anesthesiologist aware that you take that medication so he can be prepared. It is doubtful that any truly adverse reactions will occur but if you are opioid tolerant it can cause you to need more anesthetic or it could, on the other hand, make you too sensitive to the anesthesia. Just prepare the anesthesiologist and let him know all the medicines you take, how much of each, and how often that you take them. Be sure to tell them ALL medicines, prescription, OTC, any vitamins, supplements or herbal preparations that you use. Good luck with your surgery and I hope you have a favorable outcome!
8 Dec 2011
Hi Abby24, & welcome to the site. Dzoobaby is right, & believe me they (the nurses) before your surgery will make sure of what you have taken , what you are taking etc... They usually will check with you way ahead of time before the surgery to tell you what meds to take, & what not to take, when you have to stop drinking & eating, & the like. Please try not to be too concerned about these type of problems. They know what they are doing, & will make sure you do the right things. Good luck with your surgery, & please let us know how you do. Will keep you in our thoughts & prayers...

It didn't affect me and I just went through surgery.
I stopped my norco (like vicodin) the day before and took only my necessary meds like thyroid and such. I got extra Norco after my surgery for extra post surgical pain. I didn't realize I needed it, but I did.
You will not be able to eat or drink 12 hrs before surgery. But you can take Vicodin up to the day before surgery. You will have to stop any blood thinners you are on for about a week before surgery. You might want to check your other meds, if you have any, to see if one of their side effects is to thin the blood.
Your doctor will help you with what meds you are on to know what you can take up to the surgery and what you will hold off for about a week after the surgery.
You will receive a lot of instructions so have someone with you to help you by taking notes on do's and don'ts'
My surgery was outpatient. And to reduce infection, they now hand out kits for you to shower with the night before. They give you a 3 min egg timer and a special antiseptic soap like surgeons use to scrub down on and leave on for 3 min the night before. Then do it again the next morning and on top of that, they give this special antiseptic you paint over the area if you can of the surgery. That was a first for me. They just implemented it two days before my surgery.
Think positive for your surgery and if you can get a little exercise in before hand. It helps you recover faster.

It is ok to take vicodin prior to going in to surgery. Just the your anesthetist know... also it is always a good idea to let you anesthetist know that you have been taking opiates for some time... this way if for some reason they needed to reverse the effects of the narcotics given in surgery they would know for naloxone (Narcan) which is used for reversal will reverse everything and you could go into immediate WD. As long as u follow all the rules... ESPECIALLY the no eating or drinking you will do just fine... good luck...

13 Things You Should Know About Stomach Flu
A flu shot won't help
When people say "the flu" they mean influenza, a virus that circulates the globe each year attacking the nose and throat as it spreads through communities in waves. Flu shots protect against this virusnot ones that cause viral gastroenteritis.
The confusion may be due to some symptom overlap, such as body aches, nausea, and low-grade fever, says Gary Rogg, MD, an internist at Montefiore Medical Center in New York City.
But a flu shot won't protect against stomach bugs. There's no such thing as a stomach-flu shot (at least for grown-ups).

Scott Porter: Can you describe your style of play to us? What do you bring to the table for an NFL football team?
Sidney Glover: I would describe myself as a hard nosed in your face type of safety. I am old school. I am an in the box type safety, I love contact and I love to hit. You need that safety like me who you can depend on to make tackles and come up and deliver the big hit. I don't miss many tackles. I love and strive playing in the box. I feel I am good in pass coverage too. I am good at making the open field tackle and am very dependable. You see a lot of tall lanky S's, I am more of a thick safety who can play like a LB, S and CB all in one.
Scott Porter: What do you feel are your greatest accomplishments?
Sidney Glover: I think being a 3 year starter at West Virginia is a great accomplishment. Not many players can say they started 3 years at Division one level. I earned a starting job as a Sophomore and put myself into a great situation. I also think being Big East D player of the week was a great accomplishment. Being part of a lot of great games and a good situation.
Scott Porter: What do you feel are your biggest strengths?
Sidney Glover: I think my greatest strengths are that I am very physical and my knowledge for the game. I always know where I am suppose to be and can react well because of it.
Scott Porter: What is the toughest part about playing Safety?
Sidney Glover: We have a very difficult defense to pick up. We are a rare team that runs a 3-3-5 defense. In that I basically play a role of a CB, S and LB. I play the rover. We had so many coverages and different types of defenses to learn in our system. I feel it will really help me. I have to be an all around player to be able to play the rover position, you are asked to do a lot of different things. You have to be able to do it all, cover, tackle, cover the slot, whatever is asked of you.
Scott Porter: What type of person is an NFL team getting in Sidney Glover?
Sidney Glover: I am very loyal guy. Whatever organization is wanting to being me in they are getting a great all around person who is a family guy. I want to get comfortable and will do whatever I am asked to do and then some. You can also always count on me off the field to be a good person,. I will represent the organization in a positive manner.
Scott Porter: Is there a player in the NFL that reminds you of yourself?
Sidney Glover: I don't really like to compare myself to players without playing in the NFL yet, but I would say I really like Bob Sanders and Adrian Wilson because they are hard hitting, physical safeties like me.
Scott Porter: What are your goals for the NFL?
Sidney Glover: Really just to get the opportunity right now is my biggest goal. Get in there and hopefully get drafted and if not get into a camp. I don't want to be just a camp body. I want to go to a team that wants me and will put me in a good situation to give me a chance. I want to excel on special teams.
Scott Porter: What will you miss most about college football?
Sidney Glover: I will miss the atmosphere, but that is really hard to answer because I am looking forward to life in the NFL. Without being in the NFL I can't really say. I know everyone says they will miss the college atmosphere but I am eager to see what it's like to experience the NFL atmosphere as well. I have no clue what it will be like. The NFL is just as crazy as college I am sure.
Scott Porter: Who is the toughest player you have ever faced?
Sidney Glover: I would say hands down my teammates. Going in practice every day vs guys like Jock Sanders, Noel Devine, Tavon Austin, so much speed you have to cover. My Freshmen and Sopohmore year having Pat White in practice. My Freshmen year I had to talk on Owen Schmidt in practice. He was tough as nails, imagine facing off against him your first year. I have seen it all here at West Virginia, speed, strength, great players.
Scott Porter: What are your hobbies off the field?
Sidney Glover: You will find this hard to believe but I am very plain. I sit around thinking about football all day, it's all that is ever on my mind. I have just started to learn how to play call of duty because I have to find something to keep my mind off it. I just dream and think about football all the time. I love the game. I am also engaged with two kids so spending time with them is very important to me.

Right Now: Teens and Instant Messenger
Part of the Staying On Top of Your Teen's Technology Series
Series About:
It's something you probably imagined as a kid. You send a written message out into the universe and immediately your friend who lives across town — or across the country — replies. Just two decades ago, the technology was still the stuff of dreams for most folks. Now it's real and almost universally available. So it's not hard to understand the appeal of instant messaging to teenagers. Uninitiated adults can read on to find out just what instant messaging is and how teenagers use it.
Instant messaging (IMing, for short) uses free software to allow two Internet users to exchange typed messages in real time. Contact lists or "buddy lists" allow users to see which of their friends or acquaintances is online and send chat requests to each other."What is Instant Messaging?"*WiseGeek. Accessed November 21, 2007. Once a communication window is opened, one user types his or her comments and immediately upon hitting "enter," the words appear on the other person's screen. Because of the quick delivery, IMing can be much more like a conversation than say, e-mail.
IM doesn't cost anything beyond the price of an Internet connection, so it becomes an alternative to paying long distance phone bills. In addition, a user can have multiple IM windows open at the same time — effectively allowing two, five or ten private conversations to occur simultaneously. And now, mobile technology allows instant messaging from cell phones, so it's possible to IM nearly anytime and anywhere. Windows, AOL, Yahoo! and Google all distribute instant messaging software, and technology solutions are becoming increasingly available that allow users of different IM providers to communicate with each other.Jeff Tyson and Allison Cooper, "How Instant Messaging Works,"*HowStuffWorks.com. Accessed November 21, 2007.
A November 2007 poll performed by the Associated Press and AOL reveals some telling facts about young people and IM use:Editor's note: The AP/AOL study is not available in its entirety to the public. However, the two articles cited in footnotes 4 and 5 are different summaries of its content and together provide a big-picture look at the study's findings.
- Teens beat adults hands-down for IM usage, with nearly half saying they use the technology, as opposed to about 20 percent of adults."Poll: Teens Use IMs to avoid embarrassment," CNN.com (November 16, 2007). Accessed November 21, 2007.
- Seventy percent of IM users age 13 to 18 send more instant messages than e-mails."AP-AOL Instant Messaging Trends Survey Reveals Popularity Of Mobile Instant Messaging," AOL News and Broadcast Center (November 15, 2007). Accessed November 21, 2007.
- Results of a similar poll released in December 2006 revealed that 30 percent of teens who use instant messaging — compared with 17 percent of adults who do — say they can't imagine life without IM.Will Lester, "Poll: 'IM-ing' Divides Teens, Adults,""*USAToday.com (December 8, 2006). Accessed November 21, 2007.
In many ways, these figures are just a snapshot of a new technology being embraced by a new generation. But in a few cases, teen IM habits indicate a need for parents to talk with their kids about wisdom and good choices. For example, 43 percent of teen IMers say they use it for discussions they prefer not to have in person — including potentially awkward or embarrassing ones about asking for a date or ending a relationship.CNN.com (November 16, 2007). See footnote 4. And 57 percent of young people who use IM say that, after IMing while checking e-mail, their favorite multi-tasking combo is IMing while doing online research for homework assignments.AOL News and Broadcast Center (November 15, 2007). See footnote 5. In most cases, these aren't reasons to forbid teens to use IM — just opportunities for teachable moments about responsibility, healthy risk-taking in relationships, and the cultivation of good study habits.
