Most women have difficulty getting their nutrient intake up to the levels needed for optimal healing using diet alone. The use of supplements can help make up this deficiency so you can heal as rapidly and completely as possible. I do want to emphasize the importance of a good diet along with the use of supplements. Supplements should never be used as an excuse to continue poor dietary habits. I have found that my patients heal most effec-tively when they combine a nutrient rich diet with the right mix of supplements.
This chapter is divided into four sections. The first discusses the role of vitamins and minerals; the second section explains the beneficial effects of fatty acids. The third section tells which herbs help relieve chronic fatigue. I end the chapter with specific recom-mendations on how to make and use your own supplements, along with a series of charts that list major food sources for each essential nutrient.
Vitamins and Minerals for Chronic Fatigue
Many vitamins and minerals are useful in the treatment and pre-vention of fatigue. While a high nutrient diet plays an important role in combating fatigue, you may get the best therapeutic results by adding supplements to boost the level of these nutrients. However, I must caution you to use supplements very carefully. This chapter includes formulas with specific dosage recommendations for supplements, but I suggest that you start slowly. You may want to begin with as little as one-fourth of the listed dose, to see how you tolerate the supplements. You can then increase your dose gradually until you find the level that works best for you. Very rarely, women experience nausea or diarrhea when begin-ning a supplement program. If this happens, your body is having difficulty tolerating a particular supplement. In this case, stop all supplements. After a week you may want to begin your supple-ment intake again. Start with one supplement at a time until you discover which one gives you trouble. You should probably eliminate that supplement from your program. Before taking any supplements, consult your physician or a nutritionist with specific questions about their use or possible side effects.
Vitamin A
This nutrient helps protect the body against invasion by pathogens such as viruses (which might trigger chronic fatigue syndrome) and by bacteria, fungi, and allergies. It does this in several ways. Vitamin A supports the production and maintenance of healthy skin, as well as the mucous membranes that line the mouth, lungs, digestive tract, bladder, and cervix. When these tissues are healthy, invaders have difficulty penetrating the mem-branes, the body's first line of defense. Vitamin A also enhances the immune system by increasing T-cell activity (these are impor-tant cells that help to fight infectious disease). Vitamin A also contributes to the health of the thymus, a gland located in the chest that plays an important role in maintaining healthy immune function.
Because Vitamin A is needed for normal production of red blood cells, it helps prevent fatigue caused by anemia. It also helps control the tiredness caused by anemia that occurs with heavy menstrual bleeding.
Vitamin A should be used carefully. It is a fat-soluble vitamin that is stored in the body. You should not take more than 20,000 I.U. (international units) per day without being monitored by a physician. An overdose of vitamin A can cause headaches and stress the liver.
Beta carotene, called provitamin A, is a precursor of vitamin A found in fruits and vegetables. Beta carotene is water soluble and, unlike vitamin A, does not accumulate in the body. As a result, it can be used safely in high doses. Certain foods, such as sweet potatoes and carrots, contain large amounts of beta carotene. A single sweet potato or a cup of fresh carrot juice contains 25,000 I.U. of beta carotene.
Provitamin A also enhances immune function. It stimulates immune cells called macrophages and helps trigger increased immune activity against certain bacteria as well as candida. Beta carotene is also a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the body from damage by free radicals. Free radicals are chemicals that occur as by-products of oxygen use in the body, exposure to ultraviolet light, and other natural processes; they can damage the cell membranes as well as other parts of the cell. Antioxidants like beta carotene neutralize free radicals.
Vitamin B Complex
This complex consists of 11 vitamin B factors. The whole complex works together to perform important metabolic functions, including glucose metabolism, stabilization of brain chemistry, and inactivation of estrogen. These processes regulate the body's level of energy and vitality. Because B vitamins are water soluble and are not stored in the body, they are easily lost when a woman is under stress or is eating unhealthy food, including coffee, cola drinks, and other caffeine containing beverages. Fatigue and depression can result from the depletion of B vitamins.
Many women with anemia are deficient in three B-complex vitamins: folic acid, pyridoxine (vitamin B6), and vitamin B12. All three are needed for normal growth and maturation of red blood cells. Their deficiency leads to anemia and fatigue. Supplemental vitamin B12 is necessary for women on a vegetarian diet. It is usually given by injection.
Vitamin B6 is extremely important in relieving and preventing fatigue. In women who are prone to fatigue caused by bacteria, viruses, candida, or allergies, B6 supports a healthy immune response. Vitamin B6 is needed for both the production of antibodies by white blood cells and the production of T-cell lymphocytes by the thymus. This vitamin also appears to help enhance the activity of the T-cells, making them more effective in destroying infectious agents.
Vitamin B6 helps reduce PMS related mood swings, fatigue, food cravings, and fluid retention through its effect on glucose metabolism and its participation in prostaglandin synthesis. Prostaglandins hormones that regulate many important physiological functions are formed in the body from certain essential vegetable and fish oils. The essential fats can only be converted to prostaglandins in the presence of B6 and other essential nutrients. Prostaglandin deficiency adversely affects brain chemistry and mood and can worsen fatigue.
Women using birth control pills and menopausal women on hormonal replacement therapy can be prone to fatigue because the use of hormones causes vitamin B6 deficiency. Finally, B6 deficiency has been found in fatigued women who suffer from depression. Vitamin B6 can be taken safely by most women in doses up to 250 milligrams. Doses above this level should be avoided because B6 can cause toxic symptoms in the nervous system in susceptible women.
The B-complex vitamins are usually found together in beans and whole grains. These foods should be part of the diet of women with chronic fatigue, who would also probably benefit from the use of supplemental vitamin B.
Vitamin C
This an extremely important nutrient for fatigue. In one research study done on 411 dentists and their spouses, scientists found a clear relationship between the presence of fatigue and lack of vitamin C. By supporting the immune func-tion, vitamin C helps prevent fatigue caused by infections. It stimulates the production of interferon, a chemical found to prevent the spread of viruses in the body. Necessary for healthy white blood cells and their antibody production, vitamin C also helps the body fight bacterial and fungal infections. Women with low vitamin-C intake tend to have elevated levels of histamine, a chemical that triggers allergy symptoms. Vitamin C is an important antistress vitamin, needed for the production of sufficient adrenal gland hormones. Healthy adrenal function helps prevent fatigue and exhaustion in women who are under physical or emotional stress.
In women with iron deficiency anemia, vitamin C increases the absorption of iron from the digestive tract. Vitamin C has also been tested, along with bioflavonoids, as a treatment for anemia caused by heavy menstrual bleeding a common cause of fatigue in teenagers and premenopausal women in their forties. Vitamin C reduces bleeding by helping to strengthen capillaries and prevent capillary fragility. One clinical study of vitamin C showed a reduction in bleeding in 87 percent of women taking supplemental amounts of this essential nutrient. The best sources of vitamin C in nature are fruits and vegeta-bles. It is a water soluble vitamin, so it is not stored in the body. Thus, women with chronic fatigue should replenish their vitamin C supply daily through a healthy diet and the use of supplements.
These nutrients are found abundantly in flowers and in fruits, particularly oranges, grapefruits, cherries, huckleberries, blackberries, and grape skins. Besides giving pigmentation to plants, they have a number of beneficial physiological effects that can help decrease fatigue symptoms. Bioflavonoids are powerful antioxidants that help protect cells against damage by free radicals. They help protect us from fatigue caused by allergic reac-tions, because their anti-inflammatory properties help prevent the production and release of compounds such as histamine and leukotrienes that promote inflammation. Bioflavonoids such as quercetin have powerful antiviral properties that protect us from infections. Quercetin also inhibits the release of allergic compounds from mast cells the cells in the digestive and respiratory tract that release histamine.
Bioflavonoids are among the most important nutrients for mid-life women suffering from menopausal symptoms. Bioflavonoids produce chemical activity similar to estrogen and can be used as an estrogen substitute. Clinical studies have shown that bioflavonoids can help control hot flashes and the psychological symptoms of menopause, including fatigue, irritability, and mood swings. Interestingly, bioflavonoids contain a very low potency of estrogen, much lower than that used in hormonal replacement therapy. As a result, no harmful side effects have been noted with bioflavonoid therapy.
Because of their ability to strengthen capillary walls, bioflavonoids have also shown dramatic results in reducing the anemia caused by heavy menstrual bleeding. They have been used in women with bleeding caused by hormonal imbalance and have even been tested in women who have lost multiple pregnancies because of bleeding. They were used in conjunction with vitamin C In these studies. Bioflavonoids are often found with vitamin C in fruits and vegetables.
Vitamin E
This vitamin can enhance immune antibody response at high levels and has a significant immune stimulation effect. Vitamin E has antihistamine properties and should be used by women who suffer from allergies. One group of volunteers who were injected with histamine showed far less allergic swelling around the injection site when they were pretreated with vitamin E.
Like vitamin C and beta carotene, vitamin E is an important antioxidant. It protects the cells from the destructive effects of environmental pollutants that can react with the cell membrane. Because it has been found to increase red blood cell survival, it is an important nutrient for the prevention of anemia.

The type of wood in a laminate mostly impacts only the cosmetics. So it's whatever you think looks best, really.

Winsted: Region 7 middle, high school students honored for academic achievements
WINSTED >> Northwestern Regional Middle and High School took a moment to celebrate the academic achievements of its students on Wednesday night.
The Region 7 Board of Education held a reception before their meeting to recognize the 51 students who ranked as advanced on all of the subcategories in the Connecticut Mastery Test (CMT) or Connecticut Aptitude Performance Test (CAPT) in the 2011-12 school year. Twenty students, representing all four towns comprising Regional School District 7, ranked as advanced in all four categories of the CMT, while 31 students ranked in the top category of all five subjects in the CAPT.
"It is our pleasure to celebrate your students' successes," said Board of Education chair Molly Sexton Read.
The 51 students to be honored at the ceremony are now freshmen and juniors at Northwestern Regional High School, and middle school principal Candy Perez said the students to earn the highest marks in the CMT "have been excellent community citizens in the eighth grade."
Overall, the Class of 2016 beat the state averages in all four categories in terms of meeting or exceeding proficiency and meeting or exceeding the goal level.
The eighth grade class for 2011-12 had 78.8 percent of students meet or exceed the goal in mathematics, 71.5 percent meet or exceed the goal in science, 83.6 percent meet or exceed the goal in reading and 77.4 percent meet or exceed the goal in writing. The state averages for these categories are 67.4 percent in mathematics, 62.1 percent in science, 76.8 percent in reading and 68.4 percent in writing. The class had 92.4 percent of their students achieve at least proficiency in mathematics, 88.2 percent in science, 90.2 percent in reading and 94.1 percent in writing. The state averages for proficiency are 87.1 percent in mathematics, 77.1 percent in science, 86.2 percent in reading and 86.2 percent in writing.
High school principal Ken Chichester was similarly proud of the students to earn advanced status in all five categories of the CAPT. According to Chichester, only 8 percent of the students taking the CAPT meet that standard in all of the disciplines every year.
"Because of that, they are certainly among the elite of all the high school scholars we have in the state," Chichester said.
Overall, the Northwestern Regional High School Class of 2014 blew away the state averages in the CAPT. Northwestern Regional sophomores beat the state average in both meeting or exceeding the state goal, as well as meeting or exceeding proficiency, by at least 10 percentage points in seven of the eight categories -- all of the disciplines regarding reading and writing are consolidated into two scores -- while the school's students had at least 20 percent more students meet or exceed the goal, compared to the state average.
Region 7 had 69.3 percent of students meet or exceed the goal in mathematics, 69.6 percent meet or exceed the goal in science, 78 percent meet or exceed the goal in reading and 85.2 percent meet or exceed the goal in writing. The state averages for these categories are 49.3 percent in mathematics, 47.3 percent in science, 47.5 percent in reading and 63.1 percent in writing. Region 7 had 93.5 percent of their students achieve at least proficiency in mathematics, 94.6 percent in science, 96.5 percent in reading and 95.6 percent in writing. The state averages for proficiency are 78.8 percent in mathematics, 80.2 percent in science, 80.9 percent in reading and 88.8 percent in writing.
"More importantly," Chichester said, "they are individuals who understand what hard work is all about."
The students honored for their accomplishments in the CMT were Kendra Anstett, Matthew DiMartino and Kyra Lefebvre of Barkhamsted, Christian Johnson and Jane Lovejoy of Colebrook, Kaitlyn Deming, Spencer Dixon, Brian Ferrarotti, Zachary Hearn, Nicholas Knudsen, Christina Kovacs, Sierra Maust, Gina Pedrolini, Cecilia Petricone, Ben Schiffer, Kiley Stotler and Pieter Visser of New Hartford and Mckenzie Byrne and Reginald Denny of Norfolk.
The students honored for their performance in the CAPT were Andrew Farkas, Amanda Fetzer, Taylor Fetzer, Noah Hemenway, Lawrence Lambert, Katelyn McCann, Jessica Middlebrook, Samantha Nelson and Ryan Salster of Barkhamsted, Morgan Gillette and Meagan Pulica of Colebrook, Ryan Bertoli, Angela Bosse, Jessica Brown, Courtney Carrozzo, Christine Carvalho, Alan Colombie, Lacey Grogan, Autumn Maust, Larken McCarthy, Kiersten Paniati, Palmer Piana, Ashley Ryan, Ashley St. Pierre, Thomas Turan and Eric Zanderigo of New Hartford, Christine Craighille and Nathan Starr of Norfolk and Taylor Casey, Ashley Marshall and Alec Royer of Winchester.

Guns and roses at Crawford town meetings
Council meetings in this town of around 400 are usually boring, businesslike sessions with about three people in the audience — mostly the local media. But over the past month, citizens have been cramming in to cuss and discuss the issue of whether medical marijuana should be sold in town.
And some have allegedly been armed or have given the appearance of coming in with more than verbal ammunition.
The uptick in action at the usually sleepy Crawford meetings began early in February when the council voted to outlaw a medical marijuana dispensary, riling a local provider. In a bizarre session that attendees still have trouble explaining, medical marijuana provider Jay Ziegler showed up with a box of yellow roses and an empty bullet box. He talked about it not being appropriate to pull out a bullet box in a town meeting. Then he attempted to give yellow roses to various council members from the other box. They refused the flowers.
Council members were so unnerved by the incident that they asked sheriff's deputies to set up security equipment outside town hall to check everyone for weapons at the next meetings dealing with medical marijuana.

It showed 12:17 p.m. on all of the timepieces carried by students and young workers taking a break around a coffee table at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kan.
Travis Pinks checked both screens of his smartphone: "12:17 p.m." And so it appeared on Johnny Stiles' laptop screen, on Sara Humphreys' iPod Touch, on Garrett Rotert's cellphone.
It should not surprise that only one of the four of them, Humphreys, 21, wore a watch — mostly because of how it sparkled on her wrist. After all, that has been the trend in recent years.
And none around the coffee table, when asked for the time, said "a quarter after 12." Nobody said "about 20 past noon."
It was 12:17 p.m.
"The magic of satellites," Pinks noted.
That ratio of just one wristwatch-wearer for every four people held up in a perusal of the lunchtime crowd at the JCCC Student Center. It also holds close to national market-research data on the millennial generation.
Most adults in their early 30s or younger don't wear a watch on a regular basis.
Strangely, these watch-tossing trends seem to be showing up everywhere but at the cash register.
Wristwatch buying — that time-honored staple of the holiday shopping season — appeared to be on a fateful slump six or seven years ago, about the same time cultural pundits began to forecast how cellphone clocks would render the watch obsolete.
But in the past three years, sales have recovered for moderately priced watches that speak more to fashion than timekeeping. And the fortunes have surged, sometimes by triple-digit percentages, for certain luxury brands selling for thousands of dollars, said Andrew Talbert of the market monitoring firm LGI Network.
"That's the rich getting richer" and buying a better Rolex even in lean times for most folks, Talbert reasoned. "We're not in the business to understand or ask why. We just track the sales."
Stiles, 32, of Shawnee, Kan., isn't buying even a basic Timex anytime soon.
"Haven't had a watch since before I joined the Army, what — 12 years ago?" Stiles said.
"I see a wristwatch as formal attire … a status symbol. On my (electronic) devices, I've got a whole calendar — no need to strap on a watch."
For some, the wristband pinches. The crystal gets scuffed; the calendar date wanders off. The mainspring snaps, or the battery goes dead.
One 19-year-old diner at the Student Center in Overland Park feared that if she wore a bulky watch at the day care center where she worked, it might pose a liability when she moved her arms a certain way. No timepiece is worth a welt on a youngster, she said.
"I've gotten two watches as gifts — they're terrific watches — and I haven't worn either in months," echoed student Roman Permyakov, 21. "With the new Google (GOOG) glasses that are about to come out, why bother? You'll be able to see everything you need right in front of your eyes."
So at least two schools of thought compete in the 21st-century world of watches: the consumers who couldn't be without, and those who couldn't care less.
"I've taken 100 phone calls, at least, on this topic of cellphones and the demise of the watchmaker," said Jim Lubic of the trade group known as the American Watchmakers-Clockmakers Institute. "Among younger people, yes, you're seeing fewer wear watches on a regular basis. They'll just keep a cellphone to tell time through college.
"But once they hit their 30s and find their career path, they'll get a watch as a status symbol."
True enough, the Jewelers of America said that "fine watches" continue to hang on to about 13 percent of the jewelry market, as it has been in recent years, and that overall sales of watches ticked up 3.5 percent this summer from a year earlier.
Looming over future sales are those bare-wristed millennials: Less than a third of Americans ages 18 to 29 report wearing a watch at least most of the time, according to surveys by YPulse, a market researcher.
The most commonly cited reason? "It's unnecessary … since I always look at my phone to know the time."
Still, more than one-quarter of young adults tell YPulse they will sport wristwatches from time to time as fashion accessories.
That means they'll buy, then buy again, but the watches on most days stay on the dresser while the cellphone goes everywhere.
For millions, the phone represents the return of the pocket watch, the preferred time-telling tool before World War I. Any number of apps can display the time as if it is a pocket watch, with Roman numerals on a clock face, a second hand and even ticking noises on command.
With dozens of GPS satellites overhead talking to a network of cell-tower receivers on the ground, telecommunications companies such as Sprint Nextel can "have all times synchronized precisely to the micro-second," Sprint manager Ben Bellinder said. "We call it network time."
The network even knows when you cross time zones.
Some of the world's largest electronics manufacturers have begun to blend such technology with wristwatch fashion. For about $150 retail, Sony's SmartWatch slaps around your wrist a 2-inch-square screen that channels the Android phone in your pocket. You can check the time and read emails and texts without reaching for a mobile device.
Not to be outclassed, Swiss mechanical watchmaker Omega is plastering images from the new James Bond flick, "Skyfall," on its website.
That's actor Daniel Craig sporting an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean, priced at $10,000 and beyond. (Until the mid-1990s, the Bond character was a Rolex man.)
Omega is part of the Swatch Group, owner of 19 high-end brands, which in July posted double-digit growth in gross sales and operating profit for the second straight year.

|Version 35 (modified by 12 years ago) (diff),
The gis branch intends to add a contrib app implementing geographic support.
What's GIS?
- Series of blog posts giving intro to GIS; choice quote from an early post: "If you feel like ending a conversation with a developer then simply bring up the topic of character encodings ... [o]r ... coordinate systems. ... So in the spirit of Tim Bray's and Joel Spolsky's wonderful writeups of character encodings, I thought I'd put together a basic survival guide to coordinate systems over my next few posts and then tie it back to Google Maps."
- More on map projections, including why people can't agree on just one (utf-8).
- geodesy the field of science for this stuff.
Useful code
- PostGIS, the OpenGIS SQL Types (pdf) implementation for Postgresql
- GEOS, low-level C++ port of Jave Topology Suite, used by PostGIS
- PyGEOS, now outdated due to PCL, below, and shedloads more stuff on "python, geospatial, and the web"
- Python Cartographic Library - actively maintained, huge GIS package, GPL.
- There are direct SWIG Python bindings in GEOS 3.0.0RC1 and above. In other words, the entire GEOS API may be called directly from Python.
- GeoTypes is a type (and conversion) library for PostGIS via psycopg.
- Geopy
- Calculates distances using (very accurate) Vincenty, and uses the WGS 84 datum by default.
- Has utility functions for unit of measurement (UOM) conversions (e.g. meters -> kilometers, kilometers -> miles, etc.)
- Excellent GeoCoding capabilites. Has interfaces for Google, Yahoo, Microsoft Live, MediaWiki, and Geocoder.us.
- GDAL/OGR, a library for fiddling with raster geo images.
- Has a Python interface. A SWIG interface is in development, but not yet stable (no access to full API).
- Geo::Coder::US An excellent Perl library for GeoCoding that powers Geocoder.us. Users can create their own Geographic databases using the Census Bureau's TIGER/Line data (see below).
- GeoRosetta, CC-BY-SA licensed, quality-controlled, collection of geocoding data. Not yet released to public(?).
- MapServer: University of Minnesota (UMN) "open source development environment for building spatially-enabled internet applications."
- MapNik: C++ and Python toolkit for developing mapping applications. Claimed benefits over MapServer: "It uses the AGG library and offers world class anti-aliasing rendering with subpixel accuracy for geographic data. It is written from scratch in modern C++ and doesn't suffer from design decisions made a decade ago." See MapNik FAQ.
- Ruby on Rails
- IvyGIS: Google-maps type displays with RoR and UMN's MapServer
- Spatial Adapter for Rails: A plugin for Rails which manages the MySql Spatial and PostGIS geometric columns in a transparent way (that is like the other base data type columns). This might have some useful techniques for when we try to support other spatial extensions other than PostGIS.
Useful Data
- TIGER/Line: "The TIGER/Line files are extracts of selected geographic and cartographic information from the Census Bureau's TIGER® (Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing) database." This data is useful in creating your own geocoding database service. Currently 2006 First Edition is the latest, but second edition should be coming soon. Note: The Census Bureau will be providing SHP files in Fall, 2007.
- When dealing with points (say, degrees) from, do they need to be converted to be useful on the back-end data, assuming -that- data is in degrees? Is it enough to have the same datum and origin? (Reading the intro above is likely to answer the question.)
- My (JDunck) reading indicates yes. Given the same coordinate system (i.e. datum, origin, and axes), degrees are useful without conversion.
Phase 1
- Create Geometry-enabled fields and manager. Status: complete (not yet in SVN).
- Allow for Geometry-enabled queries. Status: complete (not yet in SVN).
- Here is an example of how the model API currently works (assume this example is in geo_app/models.py):
from django.contrib.gis.db import models class District(models.Model): name = models.CharField(maxlength=35) num = models.IntegerField() poly = models.MultiPolygonField() objects = models.GeoManager() class School(models.Model): name = models.CharField(maxlength=35) point = models.PointField() objects = models.GeoManager()
- Use the manage.py just like you normally would:
$ python manage.py sqlall geo_app BEGIN; CREATE TABLE "geo_app_school" ( "id" serial NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, "name" varchar(35) NOT NULL ); CREATE TABLE "geo_app_district" ( "id" serial NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, "name" varchar(35) NOT NULL, "num" integer NOT NULL ); SELECT AddGeometryColumn('geo_app_school', 'point', 4326, 'POINT', 2); SELECT AddGeometryColumn('geo_app_district', 'poly', 4326, 'MULTIPOLYGON', 2); COMMIT; $ python manage.py syncdb geo_app
- PostGIS additions to the API may now be used:
>>> from geo_app.models import District, School >>> qs1 = District.objects.filter(poly__bbcontains='POINT(-95.362293 29.756539)') # Same as PostGIS '&&' operator >>> qs2 = District.objects.filter(poly__intersects='POINT(-95.362293 29.756539)') # Same as PostGIS Intersects() (from GEOS)
Phase 2
- Add as much from the PostGIS as possible.
- Add geometry-enabled routines to the fields that call directly on GEOS routines -- like area(), centroid(), etc.
- Contemplate a JS framework for mapping. I know Django community is against including any type of JS/AJAX framework, but having a way to generate maps would be a great addition. Also, any type of framework would be limited to the contrib package only.
Installation of the GeoDjango module will also require the installation of existing open source geographic libraries and a spatial database (currently only PostGIS). This section will describe the installation process for these libraries. Initially, these instructions will pertain only to a Linux platform (particularly Debian or Ubuntu). Mac & Windows support will be considered later; however, these instructions will most likely work through the Mac shell. Don't hold your breath for Windows support.
- Latest GEOS version is 3.0.0RC4
$ ./configure --enable-python $ make # make install
- Latest PROJ version is 4.5.0
$ ./configure $ make # make install
- Latest PostGIS version is 1.2.1
- First build & install PostGIS. We are currently using v8.1 of PostgreSQL.
$ ./configure --with-geos --with-proj $ make # make install
- Next, create a role and database for your application, and allow it to access PostGIS functionality:
# su - postgres $ psql postgres=# CREATE ROLE <user> LOGIN CREATEDB; postgres=# \q $ createdb -O <user> <db_name> $ createlang plpgsql <db_name> $ psql -d <db_name> -f /usr/local/share/lwpostgis.sql $ psql -d <db_name> -f /usr/local/share/spatial_ref_sys.sql $ psql <db_name> <db_name>=# GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON geometry_columns TO <user>; <db_name>=# GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON spatial_ref_sys TO <user>;
- Finally, update your settings.py to reflect the name and user for the spatially enabled database. So far, we only plan to support the psycopg2 backend, thus: DATABASE_ENGINE='postgresql_psycopg2'.
- Optional, but useful for coordinate transformations.

What is an Annuity?
An annuity is a contract that promises to pay you an income on a regular basis for a period of time you choose, or you may decide to leave your premiums and accumulated values in the contract until a future date, your death, or the contract maturity date (usually age 100). Benefits from an annuity may be distributed in the form of periodic payments, withdrawals, a lump sum, or a death benefit, depending on the contract provisions..
Annuities Purchase Checklist
Questions to ask an agent or agency when considering the purchase of an annuity
Variable Annuities: Beyond the Hard Sell, FINRA
Annuities must be sold by a licensed insurance agent. The agent is your best source for explanation of any contract terms or provisions you do not understand. If you are uncertain of the recommendations made by an insurance agent, or are not sure an annuity is right for you, do not be pressured into signing an application. You may wish to get a second opinion from another licensed agent who does not have a vested interest in your investment decision. If your financial decision will affect other family members, you may also want to include them in your decision process.

Buddy Up: The Partner Workout
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
The Buddy Workout
Catching up with your BFF is fun. Kicking each other's patootie? Even better!
That's the beauty of our buddy routine: You'll not only spend time together, but you'll also work out way harder than if you were going through the motions solo. "You push yourself more than you would on your own. You can't flake," notes Barry Jay, a cofounder of Barry's Bootcamp, home to one of the most body-morphing workouts around, and a big fan of partner pair-ups. But don't expect to be dishing about last night's date: Jay and fellow Barry's Bootcamp trainer Astrid McGuire created a fun but fierce head-to-toe routine that delivers fast results. You'll shed fat and sculpt firm muscles while moving back and forth nonstop between strength exercises and cardio bursts.
What you'll need: a 5- to 10-pound dumbbell and a medicine ball (use the weight instead of the ball in a pinch). Warm up for five minutes on a treadmill at an easy pace, jog in place, do low step-ups, or jog around the block. Then do one set of each of the following moves in any order, changing it up every time. Rest only as necessary, and after every third move do a cardio interval (see "Cardio Blasts," slide 11). If time allows and you're feeling supermotivated, add in a few more rounds of strength moves and cardio bursts. Follow the plan consistently four days a week while keeping an eye on your calories, and you and your chum will be admiring each other's sleek physiques in just three weeks.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Targets shoulders, core, and legs
- Stand 1 foot apart, facing away from each other, feet wider than shoulder-width apart; partner A holds a dumbbell or medicine ball with both hands.
- Squat so you're butt to butt; then A leans forward and passes weight between legs to B.
- You both stand up; B passes weight back to A overhead to complete 1 rep.
- Do 20 reps, then switch directions (B passes weight to A between legs, and A passes weight to B overhead).
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Side-Plank Pass
Targets shoulders, obliques, and core
- Lie on right side 2 feet apart, parallel to each other and facing the same direction, with partner B in front and holding a 3- to 5-pound dumbbell in left hand.
- Lift hips so you're balancing on right forearm and on the side of right foot, feet stacked. Extend left arm straight up in line with shoulder, palm facing forward.
- B lifts hips slightly and passes dumbbell underneath torso to A, who takes dumbbell in left hand and then extends arm back up again (staying in side plank). Partner A passes dumbbell back to B as B reaches under her body.
- Do 20 reps, then flip to left side so A is in front. Repeat, with A passing dumbbell back to B. (Only the partner in front passes weight under raised hips.)
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Targets core, butt, and legs
- Stand facing each other, 2 to 3 feet apart, with feet wider than shoulder-width apart and hands in fists next to chin.
- Partner A squats low while partner B brings right foot in toward left, then kicks right leg up and over A, finishing with feet wide.
- B squats low while A kicks one leg over B.
- Do 50 kicks total, switching legs every time or halfway through.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Triceps Pass
Targets triceps and abs
- Partner A holds a medicine ball in both hands overhead. Partner B lies on the floor with head near A's feet and grasps A's ankles.
- Partner A lowers ball behind head, keeping elbows close to ears.
- Partner B lifts legs toward ceiling as A straightens arms and then leans forward, placing ball between B's feet (make sure ball is secure before letting go).
- B lowers legs toward floor (don't allow lower back to arch off floor), then brings them up to A again to complete 1 rep.
- Do 20 reps, then switch positions and repeat.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Wheelbarrow Push-Up with a Dead Lift
Targets arms, chest, back, core, and legs
- Partner A gets in plank position on hands and toes; partner B stands behind A and holds an ankle in each hand.
- Partner B bends over from hips, keeping arms straight, as A bends elbows and lowers chest toward floor.
- As A straightens arms, B stands up, keeping knees and back straight.
- Do 20 reps, then switch positions and repeat.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Rotational Twist
Targets obliques and abs
- Stand back to back with feet shoulder-width apart. Partner A holds medicine ball in both hands in front of abs.
- Partner A turns to right and passes ball to partner B as B turns to left; B then rotates to right and A to left, passing ball again.
- Continue for 30 seconds, then switch directions and repeat, with A turning to left first.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Med Ball Waltz
Targets shoulders, chest, and legs
- Stand facing each other; partner A holds a medicine ball in both hands in front of chest. Partner A lunges forward with right leg, passing ball to partner B as B lunges back with left leg, bringing ball toward chest.
- B immediately lunges forward again with left foot, passing ball to A as A lunges back with right leg.
- Do 20 passes, then switch legs (A lunges forward with left leg and B lunges back with right to start).
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Double Jump
Targets shoulders, core, butt, and legs
- Partner A gets in plank position on forearms and toes, body straight from head to heels. Partner B stands behind A, feet wide and arms bent in front of chest, and lowers into a squat.
- Partner A jumps feet wide apart as B jumps feet together (imagine hopping between your partner's feet), landing in a squat. B then jumps feet wide and squats again as A hops feet together to complete 1 rep.
- Do 20 reps, then switch positions and repeat.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Squat and Dip
Targets shoulders, triceps, butt, and legs
- Partner A holds a medicine ball in both hands and stands 1 foot from a wall with feet shoulder-width apart. A leans back and slides down wall into a squat until thighs are parallel to floor and knees are aligned over ankles. Partner A then raises ball overhead and holds it there, arms straight and both shoulders against wall.
- Partner B stands 12 to 18 inches in front of A's feet, facing away, then squats and rests palms on A's knees, fingers facing forward.
- B bends elbows and lowers into a dip, then presses up and repeats.
- B does 20 dips while A maintains squat. Switch positions and repeat.
James Michelfelder and Therese Sommerseth
Cardio Blasts
No Barry's Bootcamp workout is complete without a little time on the treadmill. Most classes alternate between strength work and sprints or hill climbs; while one group is hefting weights or moaning through push-ups, the other is furiously punching buttons on the console to speed up, slow down, or adjust the incline. Insert one of these cardio bursts every three moves and watch the flab melt off.
Challenge 1: Sprints
Run or walk fast for 30 to 45 seconds, then recover for the same amount of time. Choose an intensity that's challenging. You have to do only three of these sprint intervals, so make them count.
No treadmill? No problem! Walk or run outside or jump rope for 3 to 4 1/2 minutes, hopping faster and then slower. Jumping jacks also work.
Challenge 2: Hill climb
Walk or run at a 1.0 incline (choose a moderate-intensity speed) and increase the incline every 30 seconds. Repeat for 3 minutes (you should be close to your workout max), then reduce the incline every 30 seconds.
No treadmill? No problem! Repeat Challenge 1 or, holding a 5-pound dumbbell, do step-ups on a bench for 6 minutes, increasing the weight or the height each minute.
Challenge 3: One-mile time trial
Run or walk (or do a combo) as fast as you can for one mile. Take note of how long it takes so you can try to beat it the next time.
No treadmill? No problem! Do it outdoors or jump rope for 8 to 10 minutes, counting revolutions per minute.

I had some problems that chromium not are responsible enough for me, slow in page load and flash streaming.
I was then try Google Chrome and thus problems was not appearing. What I can change that I can use chromium.
I think you need to provide more info here.
I haven't experienced this problem. I do use the flash from google chrome in chromium with the aur package "chromium-pepper-flash-stable" if that helps.
Hi yeah we probably need more info, but I can't say I've had this problem. Some bugs in Chromium for sure but I expect this in what is essentially a development branch, but performance is usually on par.
Arch Linux - Intel E5200 Desktop (MATE GTK3) | Fedora 25 - ASUS Core-i7 Optimus Laptop
I had some problems that chromium not are responsible enough for me, slow in page load and flash streaming.
I was then try Google Chrome and thus problems was not appearing. What I can change that I can use chromium.
Chrome and chromium has essential the same code. when you mean slow, can you give us any clear numbers for comparison sake?

Unix is user-friendly. It just isn't promiscuous about which users it's friendly with. - Steven King
Is it possible that chrome stores its files in another folder? If so, you had a clean start of chrome, whereas chromium has a long browsing history etc. So please start chromium with a clean config and see if there's still a difference.
Ahh, I can give it a try.
How can I measure that also?
Last edited by Azd325 (2013-04-26 18:41:02)
Measure? Well, in this case I think it's enough to listen to your feeling. If it seems like both browsers behave the same, just ditch chrome and stick with chromium.
I hear on my feel.
Maybe I can check the flashplayer settings and improve this ones. Or clean some cache and try around
thanks for some infos
For flash: chrome has a newer flashplugin than what is available in the repos. You can get it for chromium too by installing phromium-pepper-flash from aur.
If you are on i686, chrome is built with sse3, while chromium in arch is not, which can make a difference in some cases.
Evil #archlinux@freenode channel op and general support dude.
. files on github, Screenshots, Random pics and the rest
I believe its more up to date.
And it does seem to go faster for me as well.
Also i not sure if this is a font related question.
But i have the same font on both Firefox and Chrome.
And Chrome does not seem to be able to show Japanese text to me.
While firefox does.
Chrome just gave me Unicode errors.

There are about a million reasons why it's great to have a boyfriend—and at least one reason why it stinks.
And that reason? A bacterial infection in your hoo-ha.
Stick with us on this one: A new study found that women who were treated for bacterial vaginosis (basically, the bacterial version of a yeast infection) are twice as likely to get it again if they had the same sexual partner before and after treatment.
We asked Jennifer Landa, MD, chief medical officer of BodyLogicMD and author of The Sex Drive Solution for Women, to give us the lowdown on BV—and what we can do to prevent it.
"There seems to be an association between intercourse without condom use suggesting that something in the semen may be increasing likelihood of infection," Dr. Landa said. "The main thing to remember is that infection is caused by an imbalance of the bacteria that are naturally occurring in the vagina."
To decrease the risk of developing an infection, Landa recommends eating a healthy diet low in sugar and processed foods. Probiotics and the natural supplement boric acid are also said to help.
One of the best ways to tackle the nasty stuff? Soap and water.
"Keep your vagina clean and always wash sex toys with warm soapy water after use because unwashed sex toys can promote more frequent infections," she said.

Feb. 13, 2008
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Junior Zach Etten scored a season-high for the second consecutive game and the Beavers' defense kept the Engineers off the board for over six minutes late in the second half, as Babson rallied past MIT, 75-62, on Wednesday night in Rockwell Cage. Etten scored 29 points on 10-of-15 shooting in a scintillating offensive performance including 21 points in the second half.
The game started slowly for both teams, although Babson (8-13, 5-4 NEWMAC) made the first push after a fast-break dunk by Etten put the Beavers ahead, 21-15, with 5:21 left in the first half. MIT's Hamidou Soumare proved to be a difficult match all night in the post and after posting consecutive lay-ups, the Engineers (12-11, 3-7) tied the score at 23 with just under three minutes on the clock. The squads traded baskets down the stretch while senior Will Mroz sent MIT to the locker room with a 29-27 lead after hitting a fade-away jumper at the halftime buzzer.
MIT posted a better field goal percentage in the opening period and enjoyed a commanding edge on the glass, but five of Babson's eight field goals were from three-point range with Kyle McDonald delivering two of those three's to finish with eight points on 3-of-3 shooting in addition to four assists.
Junior Jimmy Bartolotta, who had missed the last two games with multiple injuries and was sporting several bandages, was held scoreless in the first half for the first time since his rookie season and struggled in the early part of the game. Despite the slow start, Bartolotta picked up the Engineers in the second half with 10 straight points on four consecutive field goals as MIT moved ahead of Babson, 46-40, with 12:34 left in the game.
Kyle McDonald scored off dribble penetration to slice MIT's lead to four while Greg Bush scored four straight to tie the game. Etten moved Babson back in front with a three on the Beavers' next trip down although Soumare responded with a lay-in on the other end to set the stage for a terrific finish.
With 9:31 on the clock and MIT ahead, 50-49, Etten hit another three to give Babson a lead it would never relinquish. Six consecutive points by Etten swelled the advantage to 62-50 with 4:34 remaining. During that stretch - in which Etten clearly asserted control for the visitors - MIT had seven turnovers and shot 0-for-1 from the floor. MIT would reduce the lead to eight on several occasions, mostly behind the efforts of Bartolotta who came alive in the second half, but the Beavers pulled away with good free-throw shooting down the stretch.
Etten was 8-of-11 from the floor in the second half en route to the big offensive night while McDonald also reached double figures in scoring with 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting. McDonald also dished out five assists while Chris Bradley added six points and eight rebounds.
Soumare led MIT with 21 points and 12 rebounds. The junior forward earned his second consecutive double-double while adding two blocks and a steal. Bartolotta closed with 19 points, all in the final 15 minutes, and forced three steals. No other player reached double digits for MIT although Billy Johnson also had a solid all-around game with seven points, six boards and three steals.
Babson outscored MIT, 48-33, in the second half and shot 16-of-25 (64%) from the field. The Beavers scored 34 points off turnovers while four players had two steals.

What You'll Get
Walls have long served a utilitarian purpose and several utilitarian porpoises, who used them to build underwater machine-gun factories. Give your walls a much-needed blast with today's deal: for $35, you get a 4-foot-wide, 1-foot-tall panoramic wall mural shipped to anywhere in the continental U.S. (an $84 value) from Larger Than Life Prints, a Philadelphia-based wall-graphics wonderland. If your walls are screaming for a larger mural, you can upgrade (starting at 60"x15") and simply pay the difference ($19-$49) at checkout.
Larger Than Life specializes in wall art that combines modern materials with state-of-the-art digital-production technologies. With today's Groupon, you'll receive one of its panoramic wall murals, 48 inches by 12 inches in size. Browse the selection of city- and landscapes and order online. Keep it American with skylines of Boston, Chicago, and New York, or roam far away with a sweeping low-angle shot of the Eiffel Tower against a golden sky. Tropical and mountain scenes are also available, along with a lone sunflower amidst lavender plants and a diner on Route 66. Think not on frames or complicated mounting procedures; all murals are printed on fabric paper using eco-solvent digital inks, and are designed to adhere to any kind of wall material without leaving residue or damaging the underlying surface. If you need to leave town because a band of renegade apiarists is dangerously close to discovering the galvanized-steel hive stocked with superbees in your neighbor's backyard, simply peel the mural and go—it's safe to remove and reapply up to 100 times.
LTL wall murals make great gifts for birthdays, Burton Gilliam Day, or most any day. They're also good for dorm room decorating or spicing up sawdust-flavored office walls. All LTL wall graphics are made in the United States, printed on demand, and shipped within 48 hours. With today's deal, shipping (normally $4) is absolutely free; if you need the shipping expedited, just choose to pay extra during checkout.
Larger Than Life's panoramic murals have not been singled out specifically, but such sites as Technically Philly, Holycool.net, TechCrunch, Thrillist, and Boing Boing praise the company's slick prints. More than 1,300 Facebookers are fans of the business.
- It's hard to really get excited about stickers, but these are actually pretty impressive. They're made out of a study [sic] fabric-based paper that's really hard to tear (we tried), and it can also be applied many times on various surfaces, like walls and glass. You can roll the sticker up in a ball, and it will pull apart without any lasting damage. Contrast that with most other large stickers, which are typically made of vinyl, and it becomes clear that these are truly some high grade stickers. – TechCrunch
- Pulling a fabric graphic printed by Larger Than Life Prints from a wall is easy and clean. The graphic has been removed without a tear. The wall remains unmarred, without a mark. – Technically Philly

After surviving a two-car collision with barely a scratch on her, pregnant singer Jewel claims she only has one thing to thank for her safety — her Cadillac SRX! The 36-year-old buxom star took to her Twitter account this morning to sing the praises of the crossover she was driving when she crashed Friday morning in Texas.
Jewel tweeted:
"1 thing I do know is my car saved my & my baby's life," she wrote. "Definitely going to get another Cadillac SRX! It absorbed all the damage and kept me safe!"
Jewel's car was hit on the passenger side by a Volunteer Fire Department truck driven by a County Commissioner in Texas.
See, I knew there was a reason why my mom loves that car.

Texas football legend Jack Pardee dies at 76
Jack Pardee's life in football took him from Christoval's South Concho River to Junction's parched playing fields to the Los Angeles Coliseum to the nation's capital to the Astrodome and points beyond.
And at each stop, he left classmates, teammates and friends who remembered him Monday, on the occasion of his death at age 76 from cancer, as a teammate to be admired, a coach to be respected and a friend to be cherished.
"I met him when I was a freshman in college, and he was a prince of a guy," said Dennis Goehring, also a member of the exclusive fraternity that was Paul "Bear" Bryant's Junction Boys at Texas A&M in the 1950s. "And he never changed. He was always a prince of a guy."
Even among the long list of Texas football legends, Pardee's story ranks in rarefied air. He was a six-man football champion, a member of the A&M team Bryant held closest to his heart, an All-Pro linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams and Washington Redskins and a Coach of the Year at every level he plied his trade in college and the pros.
Family members disclosed his death Monday in Centennial, Colo., a Denver suburb, from gall bladder cancer. He was diagnosed in November and moved with his wife, Phyllis, to Colorado to spend his final days.
"My dad was in a lot of pain near the end, and it was time for the Lord to take him," said his son, Ted Pardee. "He was committed to football, but he was always close to his family.
"He had a lot of love to give. He was a sweet guy who was never afraid to give us a hug and kiss. He fought a tough battle, and we're going to miss him."
Tributes: Warren Moon and others mourn Pardee
He will be best remembered in Houston for his years as head coach of the USFL's Gamblers, where his players included future Hall of Famer Jim Kelly; the University of Houston Cougars, where he coached Andre Ware to the 1989 Heisman Trophy; and the Oilers of the run-and-shoot era of the 1990s.
But his life in Texas started at the other extreme from the high-profile NFL.
Went to Aggieland
Pardee was born in Iowa but came to Texas in the 1940s when his father, Earl, who suffered from rheumatoid arthritis, sold the family farm and moved to Texas in search of a cure.
That search led to Christoval, 20 miles south of San Angelo, which was known for its mineral baths. At 6 feet 1 and 210 pounds, Pardee became a giant of six-man football, scoring 57 touchdowns for the school's 1952 regional championship team.
Recruited by coach Ray George to attend Texas A&M, Pardee elected to remain an Aggie when George left after the 1953 season. He was one of several dozen players that Bryant took with him to the 1954 training camp in drought-ravaged Junction, and he endured to become an All-America performer. He was selected in 1986 to the College Football Hall of Fame.
"If you think of all the players from Texas who went on to be great pros and All-Americas, Jack ranks among the best," said Mickey Herskowitz, the longtime sportswriter who covered the Junction Boys.
"He had such guts. He never lost a yard from scrimmage playing fullback, and he played one year with two dislocated shoulders. And he was a gentle, courteous gentleman."
'Over the Hill Gang'
Selected in the 1957 NFL Draft by the Rams, Pardee played through 1964 and was diagnosed with melanoma. He underwent, on his 28th birthday, an 11-hour surgical procedure that included chemotherapy, a complete blood transfusion and a procedure that lowered his body temperature to 86 degrees.
He recovered and returned to the NFL, completing a 15-year career in 1972 as one of George Allen's "Over the Hill Gang" with the Redskins.
"He was our leader," said Redskins teammate Diron Talbert. "George Allen counted on him, and we counted on him."
Pardee began his coaching career with the Florida Blazers in the World Football League, coached a Chicago Bears team that included the young Walter Payton from 1975 through 1977 and spent 1978 through 1980 as coach of the Redskins. He was named WFL coach of the year in 1974, NFC coach of the year with the Bears in 1976 and NFL coach of the year with the Redskins in 1979.
He spent a year as an assistant with the Chargers, then two years out of football in private business before coaching the USFL Gamblers.
"He asked (Gamblers owner) Jerry Argovitz why he picked the name Gamblers, and Jerry said, 'I'm a big Kenny Rogers fan, and 'The Gambler' is my favorite song,' " Herskowitz said. "Jack said, "I'm glad your favorite song wasn't 'Coward of the County.' "
'So much integrity'
He moved from the defunct USFL to UH, where Ware remembered him as a mentor and example.
"I'm eternally grateful to Jack Pardee for the rest of my life," Ware said in a recent interview. "I think so much of him. People know him as a coach, and I got to know him as Jack Pardee the person."
He left UH for the Oilers, where he led the team to the playoffs four years in a row through such events as the Kevin Gilbride-Buddy Ryan sideline fight and the often unpredictable ways of team owner Bud Adams.
"He had so much integrity. I had nothing but respect for him," said Bruce Matthews, the Hall of Fame lineman for the Oilers who now is an assistant coach with the Titans. "He had the perfect temperament to handle the off-the-field issues we had."
In retirement, Pardee and his wife moved to a ranch in Gause, and he kept in touch with his fellow Junction Boys and with members of the Gamblers, attending a team reunion in 2010.
"It seems to me that the good Lord takes the good guys first," said John David Crow, Pardee's teammate at A&M. "If there was a person you would want to emulate or copy, it would be Jack."
Created scholarship
Ted Pardee said his father chose in his final days to establish what he hoped will be a lasting legacy through the Jack Pardee Memorial Scholarship at UH.
"He truly loved the time spent at the University of Houston and wanted to find a way to help a deserving, hardworking, dedicated athlete who might not have the means to pay for their own college tuition," Ted Pardee said. "He could have offered his name to a lot of different charities or scholarship funds, but this was what my dad wanted to do."
Chronicle staff writer John McClain contributed.

By Henry Flores, director of the Communications Center in El Salvador
Manuel was a 16-year-old boy, living in El Salvador, who, in spite of his severe muscular dystrophy condition, lived with hope for the future to come.
ìI want to be a radio technician,î he said, ìI like it, and I can learn.î
His 85-year-old grandmother and only relative, Mercedes, kindly smiled and believed in his words, ìManuelito learns very fast and has fixed a little TV which he connects to a car battery because we have no electricity.î
A few weeks ago, after complications from hepatitis and kidney problems, Manuel passed away, leaving a great example to the world he left behind. Through his shining personality and kind smile, he was able to enter people's hearts, which motivated many to sponsor more children in his community, others to contribute to the construction of four homes for families who were living under cardboard and plastic in the area, and sparked the creation of a new fund for children with special needs.
Because Manuel was the first sponsored person in that area, the CFCA staff and Manuelís community members saw him as the ìfatherî of their community. In his honor, the CFCA community he lived in changed its name from Community La Linea (train tracks) to Community Manuel.
Deep in my heart, I feel Manuel had a mission, and he accomplished it. He made us aware of the problems of his neighbors, and CFCA was able to help many because of him.
I pray to the good Lord to help me find my mission in this world, as well as the understanding to carry it with the same love, hope and joy that Manuel had.
Editor's note: The winter issue of "CFCA Spirit," mailed this month, features a story about Manuel and Mercedes. CFCA did not receive news of Manuel's death until after the publication was printed.

Almost a year after Hurricane Sandy devastated the East Coast, the YMCA of Greater New York has good news for two neighborhoods that were significantly affected by the storm.
Jack Lund, president and CEO of the Y, rang the NASDAQ opening bell Tuesday to celebrate the upcoming openings of new facilities in Rockaway, Queens, NY, and Coney Island, Brooklyn, NY.
"Ringing the NASDAQ stock market opening bell has long served as an important occasion for organizations to raise awareness of real and significant issues facing our communities," said Lund, who was accompanied by nearly 40 elementary school students from Rockaway. "By ringing in the opening of a new day of trading, we're also ringing in a new era for two of New York City's communities hardest hit by Hurricane Sandy."
Both facilities are around 40,000 square feet and will feature two large aquatic centers with lap and family pools, new wellness centers and large gymnasiums. The new Ys also will create hundreds of jobs for residents of both neighborhoods, according to a statement from the Y.
In an interview with NBC New York earlier this month, Lund said that both facilities were in the early stages of construction when Hurricane Sandy hit last year. There were no serious setbacks, but the hurricane did delay the openings by several months.
Lund said the Y aims to provide kids in both neighborhoods with safe places where they can receive academic support and learn healthy habits. Teaching kids how to swim also will be emphasized as both facilities are in beach communities.
"We want to meet with local community leaders to make sure that we're designing programs that meet the needs of these two neighborhoods," Lund added.
The Y of Greater New York is one of many organizations in the industry working to design programs that benefit their communities. Learn more about how other fitness facilities are going above and beyond to help members and their communities in this month's cover story.

Please read and take note of the following rules:
1. Images and Content
- Do not post images or content that is not suitable for this site. There is no age restriction on this site, so please only post material which would be suitable for a pre 9pm TV audience.
2. Swearing
- Although there are swear filters, please do not excessively use derivatives or disguised swear words. The filters are there to filter this stuff out and are not an invitation to try and get around them.
3. Advertising
- Please do not advertise a company or service in your signature or posts unless they are Authorized Dealers or have been approved by the Admin or Moderators. "No classified adverts are allowed in signatures- please use the relevant for sale section" Only authorized traders can post new threads in the Traders forum. If you wish to become an Authorized Dealer, please contact Admin. The advertising forums are not for chit-chat, please do not make comment on items for sale if you have no intention to buy.
4. Personal For Sale Ads
We have implemented a
Post rule to stop people registering on the forum just to sell. These posts have to be meaningfull and anyone caught spamming threads with pointless comments will have their posts deleted and will be warned of their actions. Please respect this, its for everybodys protection in a world of scammers. This rule does not apply to paid up club members. Do not try to evade this rule via the use of the
private messaging
system, as this may result in a ban from the forum.

Please read the FULL buying and selling rules via this link
5. Bullying
- Most of us here are grown up enough to get on nicely with each other, but some like to make life difficult for others. This could be in the shape of prejudice or targeting a specific user or social group. Skyline Owners Club will not tolerate this.
6. Nonsense Posts
- Please do not post for the sake of posting. People will enjoy a good joke, but a post with no meaning or interesting content is a waste of resources and other people's time.

A runner-up twice in four previous appearances in graded races, the
5-year-old Smarty Jones gelding rolled to a 3 ½-length victory in the
Grade I, $250,750 Triple Bend Handicap Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.
In the process, the 8-1 shot received fees-paid entry into the
Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile since the Triple Bend was a Breeders' Cup
Challenge "Win and You're In'' event. The BC Dirt Mile will be run Nov. 2
at Santa Anita.
Trained by Ron Ellis for a partnership that includes Amerman Racing Stables LLC,
Bongo Racing Racing Stable, Gary Finder and Elias Sabo,
Centralinteligence tracked the pace set by Comma to the Top while in the
clear, collared that one without about an eighth of a mile remaining
and drew away under jockey Victor Espinoza.
Runner-up to Comma to the Top in the Grade III
Los Angeles Handicap May 27, the Kentucky bred, who is out of the
Seattle Slew mare Shootforthestars, ran the seven furlongs over Cushion
Track in 1:21.57. He paid $19, $9.20 and $6.60.
The victory was the fourth for Centralinteligence, who had finished
ahead of only one horse in two previous tries at the Triple Bend
distance. The $150,000 payday nearly doubled his bankroll. He's earned
$308,921 in 12 starts.
"This is what we planned for all meet,'' said Ellis. "It was nice that he put it all together for us on the right day.
"He ran so poorly in this race last year (sixth) because he came out
of it with a chip in his knee, so he certainly had a good excuse. He
had surgery and they actually pulled two chips out of his right front
Although Centralinteligence secured a spot in the BC Dirt Mile,
Ellis said the chestnut will be pointed towards the Breeders' Cup
Sprint, which will also be run Nov. 2.
"This was our test today to show if he was good enough to keep pace
with some good sprinters,'' he said. "You won't see him run again until
the fall meet at Santa Anita.''
Espinoza, who rode Centralinteligence for the first time in the Los
Angeles, collected his fifth Triple Bend victory. His earlier wins came
with Elaborate (2000), Disturbingthepeace (2002), Pohave (2004) and
Zensational (2009).
"He was ready today,'' said Espinoza. "He was ready to go. The race
set up very well, the way I wanted. He performed to our expectations.''
Comma to the Top, who was searching for his third stakes win of the
Spring/Summer meet and his sixth at Betfair Hollywood Park, was 1 ¼
lengths in front of 14-1 outsider Morning Line, who was racing for the
first time since trailing in the Grade II Californian June 2, 2012.
First or second in seven of his 10 starts over Cushion Track, Comma
to the Top paid $5.80 and $4.40. Morning Line returned $8.40 to show.
Drill was fourth, a half-length behind Morning Line, then came Rail
Trip, who is also trained by Ellis, Cyclometer, defending champion Camp
Victory and 3-2 favorite Jimmy Creed.
Hall of Famer Richard Mandella, who trains Jimmy Creed, said the
winner of last year's Grade I Malibu Stakes did have an excuse for his
subpar performance Saturday.
"He was taking a step forward when they went to break it, then he
took a step back,'' said Mandella. "(Jockey) Gary (Stevens) said he got
hung up and got off bad. He came back missing his left front shoe.''

Homeschooling in Romania
Compulsory Attendance Law: 6-16
Legal Status of homeschooling:
Homeschooling is neither prohibited nor recognized. Homeschoolers currently report themselves to school officials as a private school. This could change quickly. At this time, a family can teach their children at home and hope not to be charged with truancy if local officials are satisfied with what they see and proof can be given that students are enrolled in an "umbrella" private school. Trends are going against this, however. It is therefore urgent that homeschooling be legalized.
Homeschooling in Romania got its official start in 2000 when Romanian church planters under Westminster Biblical World Mission (WBWM) were encouraged to practice it by WBWM and HSLDA's Chris Klicka. In the last five years, local officials inspected some of the homes and went away satisfied. But lack of legal recognition for homeschooling has always meant the state could step in at any time and declare it all illegal. This is why WBWM has not rested in its legalization efforts the last seven years. Progress was very slow the first six years, but the recent conference in March and publication of Chris Klicka's book and now increased contacts in parliament have given hope to the possibility of a good law being written.
Romanian Home Schooling Association
Chris Klicka's well-known book on homeschooling, The Right Choice: Home Schooling, has been translated into Romanian and published by the Romanian Home Schooling Association. Please contact RHSA for more information.
