CRANSTON, R. I. (WPRI) — The Northeast Coast Guard released its 2016 Recreational Boating Statistics report, revealing a major increase in local boating fatalities from 2015 to 2016.
Nationwide boating fatalities totaled 701 in 2016, an 11.3 percent increase from the 626 in 2015. But in New England, the increase was a whopping 62 percent, up to 55 in 2016 from 34 in 2015.
According to the report, 40 of the 55 people who died did so by drowning and 45 of the 55 were not wearing a life jacket.
Boaters at the Edgewood Yacht Club in Cranston said that's why they take safety very seriously.
"We just had rain so I was wearing my jacket, but right under it is my life jacket!" said Catherine White, an instructor for Edgewood Sailing School.
White said she puts her life jacket on as soon as she gets to the dock.
"You might not be conscious when you go into the water, you might have a heart attack, you might get hit by a boom," she said. "There's a number of reasons why you would want to wear a life jacket, even if you are a good swimmer."
"People say 'I don't have to wear those,' but they make them inflatable now, so it's like not even having it there," said Cranston Harbormaster Ted Westcott.
Michael Longtin is now the manager at Edgewood Yacht Club but he used to work for the U.S. Coast Guard and State Marine Patrol. He said he's seen lots of unsafe boating practices over the years, but he was surprised by the numbers.
"I know the Coast Guard is out there actively and the DEM and state and local police are out there actively enforcing these things, so that is surprising to me that the numbers are that high," Longtin said.
Longtin said boaters should always let someone know where they are heading and when they are expected to be back.
Some additional important boating safety measures from the Northeast Coast Guard:
- Boat and paddle sober. Alcohol use is the leading known contributing factor in fatal boating accidents. Refrain from using alcohol or other impairing substances when operating boats or other watercraft.
- Always have a marine VHF radio on your boat, along with an EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicator Radio Beacon) or PLB (Personal Locator Beacon) in case of emergency. Cell phones may not be dependable while out on the water.
- Be sure you are not operating a boat or paddlecraft beyond your level of knowledge and handling skill. Operator inattention, boater and paddler inexperience, improper lookout, machinery failure and excessive speed rank as the top five primary contributing factors in accidents.
- Take a boating safety course or get a free safety check from the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. You'll have the peace of mind knowing your boat meets federal and state standards, and in an emergency, you will have the necessary safety equipment.
Visit the U.S. Coast Guard's website for more information on boating responsibly.

Facts and Figures on Traumatic Brain Injuries
One of the most serious injuries an individual can experience is a head injury, particularly if it's serious enough to cause trauma to the brain. There are many types of accidents that could lead to traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and the recovery process from a TBI can be very challenging.
While this isn't the most common type of injury in the U.S. today, you might be surprised by how many lives are changed by a traumatic brain injury. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
- Brain injuries are a contributing factor in approximately 30% of all injury fatalities.
- In 2013, brain injuries were responsible for approximately 2.8 million emergency room visits, hospitalizations, and deaths. Of these, brain injuries resulted in at least 50,000 deaths.
- Between 2007 and 2013, emergency room visits for TBIs increased by 47%.
- In 2012, over 300,000 children (ages 19 or younger) were treated for traumatic brain injuries, primarily caused by sports and other recreational accidents.
Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries
With so many occurrences of traumatic brain injuries, it's worth wondering how these injuries happen in the first place. This seems especially relevant, because increased safety measures, such as wearing a bicycle helmet, have been introduced to stop these kinds of incidents.
- According to the CDC, 47% of all traumatic brain injuries were caused by falls.
- The incidents of fall-related TBI cases were highest among the very young and the elderly. For children (ages 14 and younger) who sustained brain injuries, slips and falls were the cause for more than half (54%). For adults 65 and up, falls were responsible for 79% of all TBI incidents.
- In young children (ages 15 and younger) 22% of TBI incidents were caused by a blow to the head or by banging the head against an object.
- The second leading cause of traumatic brain injuries is getting struck in the head. This represents 15% of all TBI-related emergency room visits, hospitalizations, and deaths.
- The third leading cause of all TBI incidents is car accidents, representing 14% of all TBI hospitalizations, including emergency room visits, and deaths.
It's not always evident that a brain injury occurred immediately following an accident. In fact, it can sometimes take days or weeks for symptoms to appear. For this reason, an experienced brain injury lawyer in Washington D.C. would likely suggest that you have a doctor examine you as soon as possible.
Common symptoms of traumatic brain injuries include persistent headaches, frequent nausea or vomiting, seizures, convulsions, difficulty walking, slurring of speech, a shaky, weak feeling in the limbs, and dilated pupils.
If you or someone you love may have experienced a traumatic brain injury, it's recommended that you seek medical care immediately. A head injury caused by another person's negligence may justify filing a civil suit for financial compensation.
Thanks to our friends and contributors from Cohen & Cohen, P.C., for their insight into brain injuries.

PALO ALTO, Calif. (KTVU) - Class is back in session for students, teachers and staff in the Palo Alto Unified School District for the 125th year. Following a spring of controversy, district officials pressed ahead with efforts to implement revised policies and procedures for reporting sexual assaults.
According to some students we spoke with, those efforts are already producing a different atmosphere. They say more teachers, counselors and visible security are on hand.
"I think this year they have it a lot better. they're on top of their stuff. so hopefully stuff will change," said Corey O'Farrell, a Palo Alto High School senior.
District officials spent the Summer revising, strengthening, and clarifying existing policies and procedures for reporting sexual assaults.
The move is part of its resolution agreement with the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights. That office found dating back to 20-3, the PAUSD failed to take appropriate steps in a prompt manner in cases of alleged sexual assault.
In a series of 2-Investigates reports that began in May, we detailed how a Paly high school student-athlete was convicted in juvenile court of having oral sex with a minor in a school bathroom. But the district did not initiate a Title-9 investigation as required by federal law.
KTVU has learned mediation between lawyers representing that victim and the school district are scheduled for the first week in October. Fallout from that incident and other crimes has produced a palpable change on early on this school year...
"...there's just an air of caution with everybody this year that there didn't seem to be last year. I know a lot of the kids coming into the school this year heard about the stuff that happened last year and that made it a lot different for people coming in," said Palo Alto High School junior Anna Hetterley.
"the Palo Alto school board is set to vote to adopt revised policies and procedures at its next meeting, but some students we spoke to say even with that, it may not be enough the effects of a problem some say has become ingrained in the culture."
"I think it's always gonna happen we just gotta be careful...gotta be careful what you put out there, what you do, who you hang out with," said O'Farrell..
The district has a new online form for reporting all types of bad behavior including sexual assaults.
Officials start the first day of the new year dealing with the painstaking task of investigating 29 new sex assault allegations made just within the last two months of the last school year..

I'm spending part of this holiday break repaying some technical debt on my website. Among other things, I am importing some old content that I never brought over when I did my migration to WordPress a few years ago. Most of the content I'm bringing over is old (most of it is at least 5 years old), and I'm adding it to this site to integrate all of my content, both recent and historical, in one place. I don't expect that the old posts will show up in RSS readers as new content.
In addition, I'm planning to try out a new WordPress layout. I've been using the same simple (read: dull) theme for a while now, and I'd like to dress it up just a bit.

Henderson Alvarez ended a three-start winless streak, and the Miami Marlins beat the host Mets, 4-3, on Wednesday night to finish a trying 10-game trip in which they lost the All-Star slugger Giancarlo Stanton to a season-ending injury when he was hit in the face by a pitch.
Wearing their bright orange alternate jerseys, the Marlins built a 3-0 lead in the first two innings against Dillon Gee (7-8) and held on to open a two-game lead over the Mets for third place in the National League East. The Mets (73-80) must go 8-1 to avoid a sixth straight losing season, one shy of the franchise record.
Before the game, the Marlins said Stanton would not play again in the major leagues this season. Stanton was hit by a fastball from Milwaukee's Mike Fiers last Thursday and sustained facial fractures, concussion symptoms, dental damage, cuts that required stitches and two black eyes.
"It's the whole healing process, the healing of the bones and the swelling," Marlins Manager Mike Redmond said. "There's just not enough time for it to properly heal, and for him to get medically cleared to be able to play."

It's become a ritual of sorts. When my brother-in-law, Buddy, comes over with his best girl, Laura, they'd bring a slab of pork belly and I'd turn it into crispy roast pork belly a.k.a. lechon kawali. Then, we'd drink and, sometimes, watch movies. And chat… often, until the wee hours of the morning.
A great way to unwind, definitely. We're so relaxed with this couple (and Laura's unico hijo, Enzo) that bothering about whether we brought out matching glasses just don't cross our minds anymore. In fact, there had been times when we drank our cocktails from disposable plastic cups. So long as we have good food and enough drinks, then, we're happy.
The last time that Buddy, Laura and Enzo were over at the house, it was also Buddy's birthday. I said I'd take care of all the food and there was no need for them to bring anything. Just show up, and that was it.
I had something very definite in mind — something that had crispy roast pork belly in it, of course, as that had become the trademark of these monthly get-togethers. And, for as long as I've known him, Buddy had always been a fan of tacos. So, I was going to serve the crispy roast pork belly as a taco filling.
I chopped the crispy roast pork belly into pieces smaller than usual, I made a basic salsa, prepped some lettuce and there was sour cream and chili sauce to drizzle over the filling before folding the tortilla close.
And the tacos were truly delicious. I thought I had invented something new and I rejoiced thinking that the tacos would totally revolutionize the crispy roast pork belly culture. Although the taste of salty, fatty pork mingling with fresh vegetables and sauces lingered, alas, the pride at the thought that I invented a new dish was short-lived. Someone turned on the TV and a local food show was on. A group was sampling the specialty in a place somewhere in the Kapitolyo area and guess what it was — tacos with chopped porchetta for the filling.
Never mind. The tacos with crispy pork belly filling were good and worth making again. Next time, though, I will make mango and avocado salsa to go with the meat.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'Chan Ho Park' tag.
Curtis Granderson led off the 10th inning with a tiebreaking homer off Jonathan Papelbon and the New York Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox 3-1. Granderson hit an 0-and-1 pitch into the right-field seats against Papelbon for his second homer in three games with his new team. Granderson also homered on Sunday night.
Then, after three walks issued by Papelbon, Mark Teixeira drove in the final run on a groundout as the Red Sox wasted an effective performance by John Lackey in his first appearance since signing an $82.5 million, five-year free agent contract. Lackey allowed three hits in six innings (with three strikeouts) and left with a 1-0 lead.
Chan Ho Park allowed one hit in three scoreless innings after Andy Pettitte's start, and Mariano Rivera pitched the 10th for his second save. Pettitte was as effective as Lackey, pitching 6 innings, allowing six hits, one run, walking three, and striking out four.
After an expletive-filled tirade to the Boston media after last night's game, David Ortiz responded, giving the Red Sox a 1-0 lead in the third with his first hit in nine at bats. Ortiz's single scored Dustin Pedroia. That hit was Ortiz's only offensive performance, in his other three at-bats, Ortiz ended innings with two strikeouts and a groundout.
The Yankees tied the game in the seventh after Jorge Posada doubled off Scott Schoeneweis. Daniel Bard relieved and, on an 0-and-2 count, allowed Nick Swisher's game-tying single.
The Yankees are off Thursday before heading back to Tampa to take on the Rays in a three-game series. Javier Vazquez will have his first start of the season on Friday.
Photo above from the AP.
The Yankees opened the 2010 season on a good note, hitting back to back home runs to give them a 2-0 lead, which they squandered in the 7th inning and lost to the Boston Red Sox tonight in Fenway Park, 9-7.
CC Sabathia pitched 5.1 innings in his start and his counterpart Josh Beckett struggled, allowing five runs, eight hits, and only struck out one in 4.2 innings. Sabathia had six hits, five runs and four strikeouts.
Jorge Posada and Curtis Granderson hit back to back home runs in the second inning, for the first Opening Day back-to-back jacks since 1983. Posada went 3 for 4 on the evening, with two RBIs. That home run was Granderson's only hit. Robinson Cano came up big tonight, getting two hard-hit balls, going 2 for 5 with one RBI. Everyone in the Yankees' lineup except Nick Johnson and Mark Teixeira had hits. Derek Jeter and Brett Gardner were the only other Yankees to get multiple hits. Jeter went 2 for 5 and Gardner hit .500 with one RBI.
There was one brilliant play in the fourth inning when a double-steal happened when Jeter dashed for second base and Gardner sped home and stole home from third base. That was a payback for Jacoby Ellsbury stealing home last year. Brilliant play by the Yankees there.
While CC Sabathia did not earn the decision tonight, he was good for the first five innings, but outfield mental errors by Brett Gardner gave the Red Sox an opportunity to tie the game. It was Gardner's first game in left field, but he definitely acted that way, not making good jumps on the ball and at one point missing the cut off man and throwing it past Jorge Posada at catcher.
Granderson, however, made an excellent back-to-wall catch in the second inning and he may be a nice asset for the Yankees in centerfield. Only the rest of the season will tell if he's a good fit than he was in Comerica Park.
The Yankees' bullpen imploded after Sabathia exited. David Robertson entered the game and allowed a hit, but it was Chan Ho Park, formerly of the Phillies, that allowed three runs, giving the Red Sox the advantage. Park earned the loss for the Yankees tonight. Joba Chamberlain entered in the 8th inning and wasn't effective allowing two hits and walking one while throwing 33 pitches for 1.1 innings.
Yes, the Yankees may have lost tonight, but keep in mind the Yankees lost eight straight to open the season against the Red Sox, but look at who won the World Series last year.
Both teams are off tomorrow, and the second game is on Tuesday and it features AJ Burnett vs. Jon Lester.
Newly signed pitcher Chan Ho Park joined the Yankees Spring Training Workouts on Sunday after agreeing to a contract with the World Series Champs last week. You might remember Park threw 3+ scoreless innings against the Yankees in the World Series as a member of the Philadelphia Phillies.
I missed this story since I was on vacation in Puerto Rico last week and I commend the Yankee brass on this move. Acquiring Park at a measly $1.2 Million with a possible $300k in bonuses is a steal for a guy who has playoff experience and should be a nice setup man for Mariano Rivera.
To make room for Park, the Yankees designated Edwar Ramirez for assignment. I wouldn't be surprised to see another team pick him up – so adios Edwar!
Also on Sunday, Joba Chamberlain and Phil Hughes threw their second batting practices of the spring and CC Sabathia threw his first. According to the AP, Joba and Hughes will throw their first spring training game on Friday against Tampa Bay. Sabathia will take his first start on Thursday. No word on when the other three starting pitchers will get their first starts/appearances.

Bas Timmer wants to ask you something..
19 January 2018
The lifestyle program Koffietijd has made a report about the Sheltersuit Foundation. Bas Timmer (founder and designer) spoke about the creation and production of Sheltersuit. Thanks to the DOEN Foundation, people with a distance to the labor market are helping with the production of Sheltersuit, so that as many children and adults as possible can recieve warmth.
17 January 2018
The world-famous platform AJ + followed Shasho and Bas during their trip to Lesvos. See how they handed out the first 500 combinations of Sheltersuits and WakaWakas to the refugees on Lesbos. Help to make our next shipment possible so that as many children as possible receive warmth, light and a piece of dignity.
Campaign 'Laat de daklozen niet doodvriezen'
17 June 2016
The idea of Posterscope Netherlands/psCity and Isobar to support the homeless by creating an Out of Home campaign in cooperation with media owners JCDecaux, Exterion Media and Clear Channel worked out well. To support Sheltersuit (a wind- and water resistant jacket and sleeping bag) the Out of Home media owners worked with Posterscope by donating 3.500 six sheets free of charge. The media value equated to €350.000. Pscity developed this initiative to position the Out of Home sector in a positive daylight while delivering a valuable social contribution.

How to Better Store and Organize Your Wine Collection
When you first start to collect wine, it is relatively easy to find a place to store the bottles in your home. As your collection grows, things change and you can suddenly find yourself with a rather disorganized mess on your hands. If your wine collection is starting to take over your home and you are finding it difficult to locate the bottle you want, then it's definitely time to look at better storage and organization solutions. The great news is that not only will these solutions help you get organized, but many act as décor in the home.
Invest in Wine Racks
Whether your collection is still rather modest or it's quite large, wine racks can help provide you with the organization you are after. Not only that but depending on the wine rack you pick, it can also act as a space saver. If you want to browse a range of options so you can select one that suits your home the most, the store WineandBarrels has everything from small countertop racks that hold a dozen bottles or so, to full shelving systems that can span an entire wall if you choose. You can view their collection (along with a useful buying guide) by visiting the following link: https://www.wineandbarrels.co.uk/shop/5-wine-racks/.
When you are shopping for the "best" wine rack, be sure to consider the space you have available, how big your collection is right now, and how big you plan on letting it get.
Use Wine Bottle Tags
Another thing that can be helpful is to get into the practice of using wine bottle tags. These are tags that you can hang on the neck of the bottle and they can display useful information such as the vintage, brand, and/or region. The idea is that you can quickly glance at the tags rather than having to take the bottle out of its storage slot.
If you want to get really in-depth with the tags, you can also use a color coding system and use tags that allow for dry-erase markers to be used.
Keep an Inventory List
This is another way you can stay organized and aware of all the wine you have. Keep an inventory list that you can quickly refer to when searching for a bottle of wine. There are free apps that you can download that make the list accessible when you are out. This comes in handy when you are shopping for wine and you aren't sure what you already have on-hand at home.
Place the Most-Used Bottles Up Front
Whether you are using wine racks, shelves, or some other type of storage system, it's also a good idea to create an "everyday wine" section. This section should be the most accessible since these will be the bottles you reach for the most often. As you use up wine in this section, then you'll also be aware of what you need to replace.
An Organized and Accessible Collection of Wine
These tips will help you to not only organize your wine in a simpler manner, but it will also help you with storage solutions so that everything is visible and within reach when you want it.

From Tristram Shandy, VI.xvii.
In all nice and ticklish discussions — (of which, heaven knows, there are but too many in my book) — where I find I cannot take a step without the danger of having either their worships or their reverences upon my back — I write one half full, — and t'other fasting; — or write it all full, — and correct it fasting; — or write it fasting, — and correct it full, for they all come to the same thing: — So that with a less variation from my father's plan, than my father's from the Gothick— I feel myself upon a par with him in his first bed of justice, — and no way inferior to him in his second. —These different and almost irreconcileable effects, flow uniformly from the wise and wonderful mechanism of nature, — of which, — be her's the honor. —All that we can do, is to turn and work the machine to the improvement and better manufactury of the arts and sciences. —
Now, when I write full, — I write as if I was never to write fasting again as long as I live; —that is, I write free from the cares, as well as the terrors of the world. —I count not the number of my scars, — nor does my fancy go forth into dark entries and bye corners to ante-date my stabs. — In a word, my pen takes its course; and I write on as much from the fullness of my heart, as my stomach. —
But when, an' please your honours, I indite fasting, 'tis a different history. —I pay the world all possible attention and respect, —and have as great a share (whilst it lasts) of that understrapping virtue of discretion, as the best of you. —So that betixt both, I write a careless kind of a civil, nonsensical, good humoured Shandean book, which will do all your hears good— And all your heads too, —provided you understand it.

Glen Moore - Speaker
Glen was born and raised in Calgary and attended the University of Calgary majoring in physics. Glen shares "One of the problems with studying a subject like physics is people tend to comment a lot that you must be very smart. Eventually it began to go to my head. I started to think I must really be all that and a bag of chips." While studying at UOC Glen landed in the hospital with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. He thought he was so smart and then got a serious illness of the mind. He feels there is a connection? Through struggling with this illness and also because of a fear of hell, he repented and received Christ as his saviour. Glen believes God used mental illness to humble him and once humbled, he was ready to ask for divine help. Now he works for Better Books and Bibles and as a speaker for FBB. Glen says "I'm eager in my new role and excited about the future! I will be giving a Christian perspective on mental illness and related topics."

Mac Grading app
The most commonly requested feature for Attendance that I haven't implemented is grading. There are a few ways you can do simple grade recording with Attendance:
- copy the class and use statuses corresponding to grades
- take attendance multiple times per day and use the second time for a grade
- use the new daily note per student to record a grade
The reason I have not tried to add full grading capabilities to Attendance is with all the different capabilities people will want (total points or weighted averages of categories, drop lowest X grades for a category, etc.), I do not think I can design a good interface on the small iPhone/Touch screen.
I previously used some scripts written in Python to keep and calculate grades for my classes. In November I began developing a Mac app based on the ideas from these scripts and the capabilities I thought people would want. I've spent a number of long days and nights in December working on it and it's at the point where it's now usable by me. I'm going to get some feedback from a few friends and have a few colleagues beta test it with me this semester. Assuming all goes well, I'll try to finish it up over our mid-semester break at the beginning of March. It always seems to snow during our week off so it should be a good time to get version 1.0 ready to submit to the Mac app store.
The main items I need to finish our polishing the GUI a bit, design an icon, and create the help files. That's probably at least a full week's work. Here are the main features:
- document-based app so you create one file per class
- support for using total points or a weighted average of categories
- option to drop lowest grades from each category (different number per category)
- add/delete students, categories, assessments with full undo support
- configurable letter grade scaling
- import students from a CSV file
- email grades for an assessment to students
- email full grade report to students
- export a CSV grade report with all grades
Once I do a little more GUI polishing, I'll post a few screenshots and/or videos of it.
I plan to price it in the $15 to $20 range in the Mac app store. At the moment there are no in-app purchases or upgrade pricing in the Mac app store so at least for now, it appears all updates will need to be free forever unless you create a new app that people need to buy. I don't want to ask people to pay for a new version so I'll probably price it at the high end of the range.
If sales are decent and I think I can design a reasonable iOS app based on it, I may try to do that in May-July 2011. My guess is that if I do, it will be an iPad only app to take advantage of the larger screen.

Precautions and Warnings With Rifampin
Even though rifampin may be an effective antibiotic for many people, it can cause serious allergic reactions, dangerous side effects, or other complications for others. In particular, people who have kidney or liver disease should talk to their healthcare provider before taking rifampin. Other safety precautions include warnings for people who have diabetes or porphyria, as well as those who are taking certain medications.
- Liver disease, such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or liver failure
- Kidney disease, such as kidney failure (renal failure)
- Diabetes
- Any of a group of rare medical conditions known as porphyria
- Any allergies, including to foods, dyes, or preservatives.
Also, let your healthcare provider know if you are:
- Pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant
- Breastfeeding.
You should also tell your healthcare provider about all other medications you are taking, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
Some warnings and precautions to be aware of prior to using this drug include the following:
- Rifampin has been reported to cause life-threatening liver problems, especially in people who already have liver disease or are taking other medications that can damage the liver. Drinking alcohol can also increase your risk for liver damage during treatment. People who already have liver disease should only be treated with rifampin if absolutely necessary, and will need to be carefully monitored for signs of liver damage every two to four weeks during treatment.
- Rifampin should be used cautiously in people with porphyria, a rare genetic condition associated with the abnormal production of heme (a substance found throughout the body, especially in the blood and bone marrow). Porphyria causes a buildup of chemicals called porphyrins in the body. Rifampin may worsen the condition.
- This medication should not be used to treat meningococcal disease, as doing so may lead to the development of meningococcal bacteria that are resistant to rifampin. Instead, Rifampin should only be used for the short-term treatment of people who carry the meningococcal bacteria, but do not have symptoms.
- People with diabetes should be treated cautiously with rifampin, as the medication can make the condition more difficult to manage. Rifampin also has the potential to interact with several medications used to treat diabetes (see Drug Interactions With Rifampin).
- Rifampin should only be used to treat known bacterial infections. It will not work to treat viral infections, such as the common cold. Using rifampin inappropriately may increase the risk that bacteria will become resistant to the medication.
- When used to treat tuberculosis, rifampin is normally given once a day. Some studies suggest that twice-a-week dosing (when used in combination with isoniazid) is also well tolerated. However, doses greater than 600 mg given once or twice a week have been reported to cause more side effects, including:
- A "flu-like syndrome" of fever and chills
- Blood disorders, such as anemia, low white blood cell counts, and low platelets
- Skin reactions
- Gastrointestinal (stomach and intestine) side effects
- Liver problems
- Kidney failure
- Shortness of breath
- A serious allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis
- Shock, which is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body is not getting enough blood or oxygen.
- It is important to take this medication as prescribed, even if you start feeling better. Missing doses or failing to complete the entire course of treatment may increase the chance that your condition is not adequately treated or that the bacteria will become resistant to rifampin in the future. There have also been reports of rare but potentially serious kidney problems occurring when rifampin treatment was stopped and then restarted.
- This medication can affect the way your body processes certain hormones and vitamins, which can lead to low blood levels of vitamin D, calcium, and phosphate, and high blood levels of a hormone known as parathyroid hormone. Your healthcare provider may order blood tests to check for these possible effects.
- Injectable forms of rifampin are only intended for intravenous (IV, an injection into a vein) use. The medication should not be given as an injection into a muscle (an intramuscular, or IM, injection) or an injection under the skin (a subcutaneous or SC injection).
- This medication can cause your urine, sweat, saliva, and tears to turn a reddish color. This side effect is harmless, and will go away after treatment. However, it may permanently stain soft contact lenses.
- Treatment with rifampin requires careful monitoring to make sure the medication is working and to ensure you are not experiencing potentially serious side effects. You will need to see your healthcare provider at least once a month during treatment. You may also need blood tests. Make sure to keep all of your healthcare and laboratory appointments.
- Rifampin may react with a number of other medications (see Drug Interactions With Rifampin).
- Rifampin is a pregnancy Category C medication, which means it may not be safe for use in women who are pregnant (see Rifadin and Pregnancy).
- Rifampin passes through breast milk in humans. Therefore, if you are breastfeeding or plan to start, discuss this with your healthcare provider prior to taking the drug (see Rifadin and Breastfeeding).

Intermediate Mathematics. Draw geometric shapes given the length of sides - for teachers. Constructions Introduction. Drawing shapes with compasses and straightedge. Introduction to constructions Constructions: The drawing of various shapes using only a pair of compasses and straightedge or ruler.
No measurement of lengths or angles is allowed. The word construction in geometry has a very specific meaning: the drawing of geometric items such as lines and circles using only compasses and straightedge or ruler. Very importantly, you are not allowed to measure angles with a protractor, or measure lengths with a ruler. Compasses Compasses are a drawing instrument used for drawing circles and arcs. This kind of compass has nothing to do with the kind used find the north direction when you are lost. Straightedge A straightedge is simply a guide for the pencil when drawing straight lines. Why we learn about constructions The Greeks formulated much of what we think of as geometry over 2000 years ago.

Singapore Math, Grade 5 / Primary 5: Geometry - Drawing triangles using instruments - Example 2. Roman Mathematics. By the middle of the 1st Century BC, the Roman had tightened their grip on the old Greek and Hellenistic empires, and the mathematical revolution of the Greeks ground to halt.
Despite all their advances in other respects, no mathematical innovations occurred under the Roman Empire and Republic, and there were no mathematicians of note. The Romans had no use for pure mathematics, only for its practical applications, and the Christian regime that followed it (after Christianity became the official religion of the Roman empire) even less so. Roman numerals are well known today, and were the dominant number system for trade and administration in most of Europe for the best part of a millennium.
It was decimal (base 10) system but not directly positional, and did not include a zero, so that, for arithmetic and mathematical purposes, it was a clumsy and inefficient system.

The Defining Qualities Of A Decision Maker
Post written by Peter G. James Sinclair.
'It were better that in Causes of weight, the Matter were propounded one day, and not spoken to, till the next day.' Sir Francis Bacon
Recently, because of the actions of another I was devastated.
My first reaction was – to react. But fortunately I was reminded of the wise counsel given to me by Sir Francis. For a lot can happen in a man's heart between 'one day' and 'the next day'. So it is wisdom, when having to deal with 'Causes of weight', that we learn to 'sleep on it'.
So I wrote pages of notes on the 'one day', responding as to how wrong I felt the decision and directives were from the other party. I stated my case in a full and logical format, but even by writing, which I thought would be therapeutic, I still felt betrayed, wounded and miserable for the entire day.
Even when I woke up the following morning, the events of the previous day were still stinging my heart. So I wrote some more. But by midday, I'm pleased to report that, I'd gained a fresher perspective on the matter, and was given a better, more positive plan, to respond to what had been done to me.
I couldn't change what had happened to me, but I could take control of how I would respond, by simply waiting until 'the next day'.
What I had written is never going to find its way into a letter or an email – but will remain forever tucked away for my eyes only. However, the matter of whether or not to respond in a certain way – the decision of whether I would or whether I wouldn't – was resolved by simply allowing time to pass – thus turning my reaction into a positive action.
This decision will now allow me to have the opportunity of building stronger relationships both now and into the future.
The Decision To Be Generous
By deciding to live a generous life, you are in fact giving two gifts every time that you give to another. For the gift you give is the gift you receive.
Let me explain.
Every time someone chooses to give, something happens on the inside. It's as if a spark of life is ignited within. Simultaneously, it's as if a gift has been deposited into the depths of your very own heart.
And particularly, if you have no expectation of a return, nor a thank you – nothing – it makes the whole experience just that much more richer.
The Law Of Sowing & Reaping
For every gift that you give, so that others live, you in turn receive the gift of life. And that is why a giver will always be a longer liver.
The reason is quite simple. A universal law guides the principle of giving. That universal law is the law of sowing and reaping. It clearly states that as you sow, so shall you reap.
Life is not about getting. True and fulfilled living is about giving.
Whenever I come across a giver, they are clearly identified by the characteristics of a smile, a sense of a greater purpose than themselves, and a vibrancy for life that is contagious.
So let me encourage you to give yourself a gift by deciding to find another, in greater need than yourself, and give of your time, your treasure or your talent.
Then stand back and watch as a greater life for you will be unveiled before your very eyes, both now and in the future.

Eyebobs: Handmade Italian frames with sick designs and patterns, starting at $199, with a virtual try-on tool, that you can order to your doorstep within days!!!!
I mean, really... Need I say more?
The popular glasses company started off only making reading glasses, but Hallelujah! Now, they're making prescription frames!
If you wear glasses, like me, finding an affordable, QUALITY, fun pair ain't easy!
Eyebobs has classic looks, but some wild frames too (which I love).
There's an eyebobs frame to suit every mood, from cool and classic to edgy and avant garde. Change your glasses and change everything. Because eyewear should make a statement; yours requires an exclamation point! (Eyebobs)
I walk into glasses stores and, oftentimes, their selection's just dull and traditional. If you see an idiosyncratic pair, they're usually pretty pricey.
There's retailers online that I've ordered from in the past and they're cheap -- but you get what you pay for. The fit isn't great, the hinges are loose after a few weeks, there's rusting, the list of issues goes on and on! Plus, it's hard to really picture how they'll actually look on you...
Well here's Eyebobs to the rescue! They have a ton of variety, and they now have this incredible, easy-to-use virtual try-on tool, which shows you how the frames will look on you! I had so much fun with this and felt really confident about the glasses I picked after messing around with the tool!
While you'll pay more for Eyebobs, then Zenni or Warby Parker -- the quality is there. These are nice frames and they're fun! The Meeooww glasses I got don't look or feel cheap. They're sharp and sleek. The material feels sturdy. The best part, they look fabulous!
If you need to update your look, there's no time like right meow! Get your paws on some Eyebobs!
Omg!! Love my new @eyebobs glasses 👓 🤓💕 pic.twitter.com/YBQad7Spsg— Jacki Jing (@JackiJing) November 13, 2017

CPHS Baseball: Sandites top Sapulpa 8-6 at Regional Playoffs/
Owasso - The Charles Page High School baseball team (23-10) kicked off the Regional Tournament Wednesday afternoon with an 8-6 victory over their arch-rivals.
The Sapulpa Chieftains (23-10-1) upset the host team from Owasso High School (26-8) in the first round of the tournament, but followed the 6-5 victory with a loss to the Sandites.
Sapulpa jumped out to an early lead with a 2RBI home run from Gage Williams and held a 2-0 advantage till the bottom of the fifth.
Sand Springs loaded the bases with singles from Cal Watkins and Riley Rutledge, and a walk from Braden Askew. Watkins and courtesy runner Garrett McCallie came in on a single from Tyler Ash to tie the game.
Ty Steelman (3-0) took over for Braden Askew (4-3) in the top of the sixth as the Chieftains reclaimed the lead with two hits, a walk, and a pair of sacrifice flies. Cody Rossman and Bennett Henderson batted in Ethan Williams and Kyle Alcorn, respectively, for a 4-2 lead.
The Sandites put the game away in the bottom of the inning with eight hits and six runs to make it 8-4. Cale Savage doubled in Jacob Snodgrass, Watkins singled to score Kameron Adcock, and Rutledge doubled in Steelman for their first lead of the day. Ash batted in Watkins and Rutledge and scored on a single from Kyler Copeland for their final runs of the game.
Evan Casey walked and Gage Williams singled in the top of the seventh and both scored on a double from Ethan Williams, but Savage sent a ground ball to first base to secure the win.
Askew pitched seven hits, two strikeouts, and one walk in the first five innings. Steelman got the win with three hits and two walks in the final two innings.
Sand Springs will return to action right away with a game against Owasso. The double-elimination tournament will continue Thursday with a rematch of Sand Springs vs Sapulpa.
Hits: CPHS 16, SHS 10.
Walks: SHS 3, CPHS 2.
Strikeouts: SHS 2, CPHS 7.
Steals: CPHS 4.
Left-on-Base: SHS 6, CPHS 9.

Cal Poly
Cal Poly pitching coach Thomas Eager accepts job at Cal
Cal Poly pitching coach Thomas Eager has been hired for the same position at Cal, the Golden Bears announced this week.
The move came as a surprise to Mustangs baseball head coach Larry Lee, who also lost pitching coach Jason Kelly to Washington, another Pac-12 school, four years ago.
"I tried to develop (Eager) as a coach and it takes a period of time to do that," Lee said in a phone interview Wednesday, adding losing coaches is part of having a successful program. "You would like to have them stick around for the long one, but I would never hold anyone back."
Eager, who played two seasons at Cal Poly, was named the pitching coach in 2012 after a tear in the ulnar collateral ligament of his pitching elbow ended his playing career after four seasons in the minor leagues.
In 2014, Eager coached Mustang pitchers to a school record ERA in a season (3.50) on the way to hosting an NCAA regional and compiling a 47-12 record. Eager coached seven pitchers who were selected in the Major League Baseball Draft during his three seasons with the team.
Lee, who has managed the Mustangs for 13 years, says the chips fell quickly after former Cal pitching coach Mike Neu took a job as the head coach at Pacific less than two weeks ago.
"(Neu) interviewed for the head job, then as soon as he got the interview, the Cal coach called and asked to talk to Tom and I said absolutely," Lee said. "Tom met with him the next day."
Lee acknowledges Eager's new job comes with more prestige and more money and says the 29-year-old coach knows how lucky he is to join Cal head coach David Esquer's staff at such a young age.
"It's a coaching move much quicker than 99 percent," Lee said. "It just doesn't happen like that."
Eager left Cal Poly following his sophomore year in 2007 after being drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the fifth round. During his breakout sophomore season, he went 11-3, had a 3.43 ERA and was a first team all-Big West Conference selection after not playing much as a redshirt freshman.
The Visalia native spent four years pitching in the minor leagues before heading back to Cal Poly to become the director of baseball operations.
"I have always been one to try to hire someone that played for me because they understand what I'm all about," Lee said.
Lee says the search to fill Eager's shoes is all but over. Cal Poly brought in potential replacements to tour the campus and Lee says he knows whom the school hopes to hire but he's "keeping it under wraps." He expects the new hire will be announced in a couple weeks.
The coaching change won't make things any easier, Lee says, for a Mustangs team coming off a mediocre 27-27 season, but he's happy for his former player and coach.
"I think it's a great situation for him," Lee said. "Now he gets to call pitches on his own and have a much greater responsibility. He's good at what he does."
Multiple phone calls to Eager were unreturned.

As 2018 begins in this winter season, I can feel the pull of two distinct directions. One aligns with the natural rhythms of the season. It beckons me to honor the pause...to slow down and move inward in order to receive the blessings of the earthly dark. The other guides me outward, walking single file toward a new year's resolution that demands I take action NOW! In years past I more often followed the external path, allured by
the collective momentum surrounding this time of year. I made plans, got down to business, and began bringing creations to life. I was praised for being diligent, focused, and devoted, and although my motivations were pure, passion quickly waned when external objectives exceeded inner listening...when service or purpose trumped my own self-care.
The well established pattern of moving forward and placing service over self.care certainly fed my sense of meaning and purpose, but often came at the expense of my own inner well.
If I learned anything from 2017 - undoubtably one of the more challenging and destabilizing years for many I know - it was the importance of calling on our greatest resource(s), seeing beyond our fears, and prioritizing our self.care! Personally, I was challenged to re.evaluate my sense of self, value, and alignment - to source them from a luminous center that was not bound to whether I was clear about the trajectory of my work or
purpose...to how many offerings I created...to how "successful" I was at my trade. Life was calling me to move from the outer to the inner. From a path of external resolutions based on objectives and results to and inward inquiry based on the resources that most supported me:
somatic awareness + conscious movement + active imagination
As 2018 begins I challenge you to commit to your personal practices...everyday. To make a priority of your own self.care and nourishment. To tune into your body and listen to what is happening on the inside. It is through this dialogue with your own soma that you will remember yourself home! That you will come to understand the systems of response within your own mind/body/soul and anchor yourself in your own luminous center - grounded, engaged, awake, in choice.
Choose embodiment! Choose Life! Join me!
Love, Teresa
"Inside everyone is a great shout of joy waiting to be born.
Even with the summer so far off I feel it grown in me,
now and ready, to arrive in the world.
All those years listening to those who had nothing to say.
All those years forgetting how everything has its own voice
to make itself heard.
All those years forgetting how easily you can belong to everything
simply by listening.
And the slow difficulty of remembering
how everything is born from an opposite and miraculous otherness.
Silence and winter has led me to that otherness.
So let this winter of listening be enough for the new life
I must call my own."
David Whyte

Hey guys!
I ordered my iPhone 5S Gold 32GB on 10/3. Checked my order status today and got my UPS tracking number! Finally! After 40 days of waiting..
Hope you guys who ordered the Gold 32GB one will get it soon, too.
Ordered my gold 16gb on 11/4 and got the shipping info today 11/12
Only 8 days of waiting and its on its way now
BTW i live in Charlotte NC
Hope this helps
Really where did you order sprint or apple cuz I ordered 11/2 and I haven't heard a thing
I just checked my order status and boom there was my tracking number. I didn't receive anything from sprint, but I'm super glad I decided to check my status before I went to bed. I ordered a gold 32gb iphone on 10/05. i should receive it on Thursdays! Super excited i can't wait. Good luck everyone!!
I ordered from sprint. and i didnt even pay it in full till arround 6 pm on the 5th
I ordered my iPhone 16gb silver on 11/1 and they sent my tracking number on 11/12. I'm in Raleigh,NC
This is in no way a post to gloat. I understand and am very sensitive to the fact that many people have been waiting a VERY long time for their devices. I just wanted to share that these phones ARE worth the wait, and share my order to arrival info for those expecting a Space Gray model.
I received my Space Gray 16GB iPhone 5s yesterday evening. Coming from the 4 (not even 4s) and an Android work phone, let me just say that as much as waiting sucks, and I can't even begin to imagine waiting 4-8 weeks like you Gold folks are, when you get the phone it's worth it. Especially if you're coming from something as clumsy as Android or as hardware challenged in comparison to the 5s as the iPhone 4. Just hang in there and keep after Sprint!
As for the Space Gray people, my order went in on 11-2-13, and it arrived on 11-12-13. So if you're ordering the Space Gray (16GB anyway) and wondering, it does seem they are well within the 2 week estimate on this model. And one of these weekends was a 3 day weekend.
After over a month of waiting, my phone has arrived in my city today. It says it's scheduled to be delivered tomorrow, but I think it may come today since it's already here! Praise The Lord in heaven, I can't wait to start loading it up! Hopefully there's no problems with activation or anything else!
oh and they never sent me an email saying it had shipped.
i am so glad though because i am moving this weekend.
I never got my confirmation email either but I checked this morning and I have my tracking number (wasn't there yesterday).
ordered a gold 32 from sprint.com on 10/10. should be here tomorrow. (it left Missouri this morning and I'm in DFW Texas)
now I just have to hope I can still buy applecare because when I ordered the phone it didn't give me the option to purchase it.
FInally!!! You've been waiting forever!

Injury of the month: marathon injuries
With the London Marathon* approaching fast it's a critical time for participants as they increase their running distances preparing for the gruelling 26.2 miles ahead. It's a time when niggles may well turn into more significant injuries so it is key to be aware of some of the common injuries; how to spot them and what to do to try to avoid them progressing and ensure you get to the starting line but more importantly the finishing line!
Here are two of the main injuries we see related to marathon training:
Shin Splints
Shin splints is a bit of an umbrella and non-specific term which refers to pain in and around the shin. There are two main areas which cause problems.
Anterior shin pain located in the muscles at the front of the shin occurs when there is excess load in these muscles and they can become inflamed, as can the fascia (the surrounding tissue around the muscle). Typically this will be painful when pointing the toes and ankle up and during running, to the point where it can cause you to stop.
The other area is on the inside of the shin, MTSS (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome). Again the muscles and the fascia become overloaded and inflamed and here the can affect the bone as well. The tension from the soft tissue can place load on the bone which then becomes inflamed and in more severe cases can lead to stress fractures.
Resting pain, pain at night and significant pain to touch the shin may indicate a more severe injury. Poor biomechanics, inappropriate footwear, tight calf muscles, poor stability and excessive training loads are contributing factors.
ITB friction syndrome / runner's knee
Although not exclusive to runners, the above pathology is seen mainly in runners and in particular longer distance runners. The actual cause of the pain itself is still uncertain but the consensus is that there it is from excessive friction between the tendon on the outside of the knee (Iliotibial Band tendon) and the structures underneath it attaching to the outside of the knee.
The friction is mainly caused at about 30 degrees of knee flexion which is the approximate angle the foot hits the floor when running. The pain is very well located to the outside of the knee, can be sharp and stabbing like. The pain often comes on after a specific time or distance of running and can be severe enough to cause you to stop. As it becomes more intense, it may even be painful to bend the knee and not just be painful with running.
Again, contributing factors can be, weak gluteal muscles, tight thigh and anterior hip muscles, poor running biomechanics, and inappropriate increase in training loads.
For both of the above injuries it is important to get an early diagnosis as this will help prevent the injury from worsening. The quicker earlier intervention is implemented the better the chance that the injury can be managed for the rest of the training until race day.
A physiotherapist will be able to assess the injury and assess what the contributing factors are by having a detailed assessment of the body, the way it moves and also look at external factors such as training methods.
With not long to go, it may well be a case of reducing the training and substituting some runs with some rest and gym sessions to work on problem areas. Marathon runners often over train the running aspect and neglect the strength and gym work which is crucial to maintaining good biomechanics and reducing the load on sensitive structures.
As well as correcting any imbalances with hands on treatment, a physio will put together a rehab plan with exercises and self help advice to ensure all areas are covered.
As always, prevention is better than cure so if you'd like us to check out any issues or if you'd like a pre-marathon sports massage, call us on 02030 12 12 22 to make an appointment.
* Other spring marathons are available.

Kate Atherley Rickenbacker Shawl PDF
The Rickenbacker Shawl by Kate Atherley is the perfect solution to a lace knitters' conundrum: how to knit a chic black shawl that will go with everything but won't make you go blind trying to knit it. This triangular shawl features lacy stripes that are about as simple as you can get (yo, k2tog) and they're always worked in the same place, eliminating the need for counting or markers and makes if very easy to stay on track. Color aside, this is an excellent first lace project. It's also ideal as a travel project: it's not so difficult that you really have to focus and the pattern repeat in easily memorized.
It's worked on the bias, causing the stripes to fall diagonally, and the resulting fabric drapes beautifully. The shaping places the point slightly off-center, making it more interesting to wear than your average triangle. It's nice and deep for lots of coverage on chilly days, but wide enough to sit on your shoulders out of the way when you're just wearing it for style.
This pattern is available as a PDF download.
Finished Measurements: 55" across x 27" deep
Yarn Requirements: Approx. 400 yards of fingering weight yarn; Shown in indigodragonfly MCN Sock (WEBS does not carry)
Needle(s): US size 5 (3.75mm) circular needle
Gauge: 18 sts & 24 rows = 4" in St st, blocked
This pattern is also featured in Kate Atherley's Rock 'N Roll Collection.
