Skip to main content
Asthma (say: az-muh) is a condition that affects a person's airways, which are also called breathing tubes or bronchial (say: brong-kee-ul) tubes. These tubes lead from the windpipe, or trachea (say: tray-kee-uh), into the lungs.
For most kids, breathing is simple: They breathe in through their noses or mouths and the air goes into the windpipe. From there, it travels through the airways and into the lungs. But for kids with asthma, breathing can be a lot more difficult because their airways are very sensitive.
An asthma flare-up, which some people call an asthma attack or episode, happens when a person's airways get swollen and narrower and it becomes a lot harder for air to get in and out of the lungs. Sometimes the swollen airways produce extra mucus, which makes things pretty sticky, so it's easy to see why it's hard to breathe.
In between flare-ups, a kid's breathing can be totally normal or seem that way. But during a flare-up, it can feel like the person is breathing through a straw. A kid with asthma may wheeze (a whistling sound when he or she breathes), cough, and feel tightness in the chest.
An asthma flare-up can get worse and worse if a kid doesn't use asthma medicine. After an asthma flare-up, the airways almost always return to the way they were before, although it can take several days.
Asthma is more common than you might think. As many as 7 million kids in the United States have it. Asthma affects about 1 or 2 kids out of 10. That means if you have 20 kids in your class, 2-4 of them might have asthma. Asthma can start at any age — even in a little baby or an adult — but it's most common in school-age kids.
No one really knows why one person's airways are more sensitive than another person's, but we do know that asthma runs in families. That means if a kid has asthma, he or she may also have a parent, sibling, uncle, or other relative who has asthma or had it as a child.
Asthma flare-ups may sound a little like a cold, with coughing and wheezing, but asthma isn't contagious. You can't catch it from someone like you can catch a cold.
Different kids have different triggers — things that set off asthma flare-ups. There are a lot of triggers. Some kids are sensitive to allergens (say: ah-lur-jenz), substances that cause allergic reactions in the airways. Common allergens for kids with asthma include:
A lot of kids have asthma flare-ups when they are near furry animals. Cats and dogs both have what's called animal dander in their fur. This is sort of like dandruff, and it's a trigger that can cause a powerful reaction in the airways.
Some substances can trigger flare-ups because they really irritate the airways. These include perfume, chalk dust, and cigarette smoke. Smoking is always a bad idea, especially around someone who has asthma.
Sometimes an infection can be a trigger and set off an asthma flare-up. If a kid comes down with a cold or the flu, his or her airways may become more sensitive than usual. In some kids, cold air itself can cause an asthma flare-up, and so can exercise. In fact, some kids have what's called exercise-induced asthma. This means they have breathing problems mainly when they exercise.
Kids who have asthma should try to avoid things that can cause their airways to tighten. But some triggers — like cats, colds, and chalk dust — can't always be avoided. That's why kids who are sensitive to those things must manage their asthma by taking medication.
Not every kid's asthma is the same, so there are different medicines for treating it. It's not like curing a sore throat or an earache, when everybody gets the same medicine. Instead, the doctor will think about what causes the asthma flare-ups, how fast the flare-ups happen, and how serious they are. Then he or she will decide on the best kind of treatment.
Some kids need to take asthma medication only once in a while, when they have a flare-up. This is called rescue medicine because it works fast to open the airways, so the person can breathe. Other kids may need to take controller medicine every day. Controller medicine works to keep flare-ups from happening.
A kid who knows in advance that he or she will be around allergens or other triggers may need to take medication ahead of time that will keep the airways open. And kids who have exercise-induced asthma can take medication before exercising so they'll be able to finish a race or game.
Whatever their triggers are, kids with asthma can use a peak flow meter to get an idea of how well they are breathing that day and whether they need to take any medicine.
Asthma medicine often is taken through an inhaler (say: in-hay-lur), a plastic tube that holds a container of medicine. You may have seen a friend or someone in school using an inhaler, which is held up to the mouth. A kid holds the inhaler up to his or her mouth and breathes in. The medicine comes out in a mist that goes into the lungs. The medicine in the mist relaxes the airways, so the person can breathe easier.
Sometimes a kid uses an inhaler and something called a spacer. A spacer is a piece that attaches to the inhaler and holds the mist in one place, between the inhaler and the kid's mouth. It lets the kid breathe in when he or she is ready, so it's easier to inhale all the medication.
Using a spacer is important because it makes sure the medicine travels to where it needs to be — the lungs. Without a spacer the medication can be wasted by traveling too short to the mouth or too far to the stomach.
Sometimes kids take other asthma medicines by swallowing them. Whatever medications a kid takes, the goal is always the same: to get the asthma flare-ups under total control, so the triggers don't create problems.
A lot of kids find their asthma goes away or becomes less serious as they get older. Some doctors think this happens because the airways grow wider as a kid grows up and gets bigger. With more room in the airways, the air has an easier time getting in and out.
Some people do have asthma as adults, but it doesn't have to slow them down. Plenty of Olympic athletes and other sports stars manage their asthma and keep on playing!

dirty low-life scum
Some bottom-feeding lowlife has somehow acquired/forged a copy of my credit card and just spent $211 at Giant Food and another $178 at Toys-R-Us. We don't even have Giant Food on my side of the country.
Fortunately I keep a close eye on credit card activity and have canceled the card. As the fraudulent charges were made in the last two hours, I have the thin satisfaction of imagining the dirty scum getting declined at the next check-out stand. But that is all that will happen, they will just be declined.
I want ill-tempered German Shepherds to burst out from underneath the till and pin the toad-faced buggers to the ground whilst onlookers boo and hiss and pummel them with rotten eggs and slimy old produce and then cheer as grouchy policemen with halitosis haul the thieves off to jail, where the heat is off and the food is maggoty.
That's what I want.
But what will happen is that the clerk will say, "I'm sorry Mrs. Chandler, your card didn't go through." and the Fake Mrs. Chandler will mutter something about credit limit and so forth and look confused and then find a way to get out of the store. That's all.
One more reason to have low credit limits on one's card. If I hadn't caught it, they could have charged 10 grand before maxing it out. I'm having the new cards set to a very low limit and continuing with my daily balance check.

The House of Raeford Farms turkey slaughtering house in Hoke County closed Thursday, putting nearly 1,000 people out of work.
The slaughterhouse is the largest employer in Raeford. The company said 950 people worked at the plant. Some will retire, while many others will need to look for other work.
"I never thought I'd see this day, that the slaughter process would be stopped," said Washington McAllister who has worked at the plant for more than 23 years.
It is a thought shared by many employees. No matter how long they have been at the plant, they know decades-long workers, like Carmen Hunt's supervisor who was there 45 years.
"This was her first and only job, and now she's about to retire," Hunt said. "I want something like that."
The employees have heard about the plant being in operation since the 50's, operated by House of Raeford since the 70's, and they have relied on the steady income.
"I could count on 4:40 every morning hitting that line," commented Oscar Squalls, a four-year employee. "I have four kids, and I have bills just like everybody else, and they have to get paid."
John Wilson has been a truck driver for the House of Raeford plant for ten years. He delivered the last turkeys Thursday.
"It was kind of sad you know, when I brought it in, because I know I'm going to wake up in the morning without a job," Wilson said.
While some have plans for what they would like to do next, there is a lot of uncertainty. Few of the 950 people whose jobs ended Thursday said they felt confident about finding other work in the area. The State Department of Commerce sent a rapid response team to assist workers with finding new jobs in June.
"The economy will be impacted for sure," McAllister said. "I don't know if we can replace it any time soon or if it can ever be replaced."
House of Raeford closed its turkey hatchery in Rose Hill in May.
The company said in March that higher corn prices, falling turkey prices and flat turkey consumption in recent years have made the business unprofitable. The company said it will focus on chicken products, which account for more than 90 percent of its sales. House of Raeford will still employ more than 2,000 people in North Carolina after the closings, including 400 at a plant in Raeford where they cook turkeys and chickens to package and sell in grocery stores.
The company is putting more focus on chicken production and the fully cooked line of turkey and chicken products.

Agitation is an unpleasant state of extreme arousal (stirred up or excited), increased tension, and irritability.
Alternative Names
Agitation can come on suddenly or over time. It can last for just a few minutes, or for weeks and even months. Pain, stress, and fever can all increase agitation.
Agitation by itself may not be a sign of a health problem. However, if other symptoms occur, it can be a sign of disease.
When agitation lasts for hours and there is a change in alertness (altered consciousness), doctors call this delirium. Delerium always has a medical cause.
Common Causes
There are many causes of agitation, some of which include:
- Alcohol intoxication or withdrawal
- Caffeine intoxication
- Intoxication or withdrawal from drugs of abuse (such as cocaine, marijuana, hallucinogens, PCP, or opiates)
- Hospitalization (older adults often have delirium while in the hospital)
- Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid gland)
- Infection (more often in elderly people)
- Medical tests that involve injecting a "contrast medium" into the patient
- Nicotine withdrawal
- Theophylline or other medicines
- Vitamin B6 deficiency
Agitation can occur with brain and mental health disorders, such as:
- Anxiety
- Bipolar disorder
- Dementia (such as Alzheimer's disease)
- Depression
- Schizophrenia
Home Care
The most important way to deal with agitation is to find and treat the cause. If left untreated, agitation leads to an increased risk of suicide.
After treating the cause, the following measures can reduce agitation:
- A calm environment
- Adequate lighting
- Medications such as benzodiazepines, and in some cases, antipsychotics
- Plenty of sleep
Don't restrain an overly agitated person, if possible. This usually makes the problem worse. Only use restraints if the person is at risk of harming themselves or others, and there is no other, less restrictive way to control the behavior.
Call your health care provider if
Contact your health care provider for agitation:
- That lasts for a long period of time
- That is very severe
- If there are other unexplained symptoms
What to expect at your health care provider's office
Your health care provider will take a medical history and do a physical examination.
To help better understand your agitation, your doctor may ask the following questions:
- Type
- Are you more talkative than usual or do you feel pressure to keep talking?
- Do you find yourself doing purposeless activities (e.g., pacing, hand wringing)?
- Are you extremely restless?
- Are you trembling or twitching?
- Time pattern
- Was the agitation a short episode?
- Is the agitation persistent?
- How long did it last -- for how many day(s)?
- Aggravating factors
- Does the agitation seem to be triggered by reminders of a traumatic event?
- Did you notice anything else that may have triggered agitation?
- Do you take any medications, especially steroids or thyroid medicine?
- How much alcohol do you drink?
- How much caffeine do you drink?
- Do you use any drugs, such as cocaine, narcotics, or "speed" (amphetamines)?
- Other
- What other symptoms do you have?
- Is there confusion, memory loss, hyperactivity, or hostility (these symptoms can play an important role in diagnosis).
Diagnostic tests may include:
- Blood studies (such as a blood count, infection screening, thyroid tests, or vitamin levels)
- Head CT or head MRI scan
- Lumbar puncture or spinal tap
- Urine tests (infection screening, drug screening)
- Vital signs (temperature, pulse, breathing rate, blood pressure)
- X-rays of the skull

Editors' review
DoNotTrackMe for Chrome is a helpful application that prevents online trackers from collecting your data while you surf the Web. Neatly blending into Chrome, this add-on gives you control of your browser and provides security tools to protect your personal information.
Awesome performance: Upon loading a new website, we noted that DoNotTrackMe's blocking capabilities were fast and reliable. While this program can block most tracking services, an innovative feature suggests which trackers may be beneficial for you, preserving your online experience.
Privacy protection: Besides blocking trackers, DoNotTrackMe for Chrome masks your personal email address from advertisers and the like. This option is somewhat limited in the free version of this application, but we found the email forwarding to be timely and secure.
Excellent support: The online how-to guides and FAQs answered all questions that we had about this program. Additionally, DoNoTrackMe offers an 800 number for more advanced technical support, so we are confident that you will never be lost.
Weaker than competitors: We ran DoNotTrackMe against a similar program and observed that DoNotTrackMe usually blocked 10-20 percent fewer trackers than its competitor. This isn't a large issue, but it does make us wary about how well the paid version of this software will perform.
Bottom Line
DoNotTrackMe for Chrome's blocking and privacy features are near perfect -- you will find very few faults. We suggest that DoNotTrackMe add more personalization features, such as Ghostery's whitelist option. In all aspects, this is an excellent application for your Chrome browser, and we recommend that you download DoNotTrackMe to ensure your privacy.

Welcome and Review of Minutes
After introductions the minutes from the May 4, 2011, meeting were reviewed and approved by the work group with minor changes from Mike Ouska.
Jay Readey inquired about recommendations made by this, and other Work Groups, and to whom will those recommendations be meaningful to.
Mark Chudzinski responded that ten Work Groups, primarily consisting of attorney's, were set up to review current Illinois law, both as reflected in statute and regulations, to determine whether Illinois law presents a challenge to the development and implementation of a Health Information Exchange (HIE), at the state and local levels, when they exchange information across their corporate boundaries. The challenges of Illinois law are really to address specially protected groups of information such as HIV/AIDS, genetic testing, substance abuse and behavioral health. The ten groups are focused on particular small aspects, and are currently developing white papers, which will identify what some of the problems under Illinois law are, and how those problems can be addressed. These changes may be done by amending current Illinois law by the General Assembly, or by the passage of regulations by the Illinois HIE Authority Board.
The process currently in place has the subject matter experts looking into the issues, and trying to inform the debate, by telling us what the legal problems are. The next step in the process is to open up the recommendations that the work groups are developing with a broader stakeholder group. For example, the recommendations developed by the substance abuse and behavioral health legal groups will be shared with stakeholders including this work group to provide input.
If and when the Illinois HIE Authority Board considers adopting regulations, there is a process provided under Illinois law by the Administrative Procedures Act where hearings will be called and information gathered from the new HIE Advisory Committee and the general public. If hearings are held, then a proposal will be presented to the General Assembly that hopefully has the relevant buy in from stakeholders.
Marvin Lindsey added that when the IL HIE Advisory Committee was formed, there was no representation for behavioral health providers. OHIT contacted Marvin who became a member of the committee, and the Work Group was formed a short time later.
Mark Chudzinski updated the group, saying that the OHIT will be issuing a Request for Proposal regarding the purchase of cloud-based services, which will constitute the state level HIE. The document will be posted on the Illinois Procurement Web site and the Office of Health Information Technology Web site. It will contain a lot of information about the architecture of the state level HIE.
Mark reported that SB539 still has only seven (7) sponsors and hasn't gotten very far in the Senate.
Marvin Lindsey will attend the SAMHSA event in Austin, Texas, which will address Behavioral Health Information Technology adoption, and the HIE. Other topics to be discussed at the event include standard development of initiative grants, initiative training, technical assistance and electronic health records scan review, and other similar topics. There will be several federal agencies doing presentations at the event and Marvin will report back to the work group any new information he learns.
Marvin updated the group saying that SB1234, passed both houses on May 27, 2011, and is now with the Governor for his approval. SB1234, is an amendment to the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act. For recipients in a program administered or operated by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) or the Department of Human Services (DHS), records of recipients may be disclosed to other healthcare providers without consent by county jails, hospitals, insurance companies, integrated health systems and state agencies. It will be important to the legal Behavioral Health Work Group to see how this bill applies to behavioral health and substance abuse. Meryl Sosa commented that the Illinois Psychiatric Society helped develop the bill with the DHS. Mark Chudzinski said that the legal taskforce will suggest additional changes to the bill in the fall.
Discussion on Consent Survey Recommendations
Marvin said that the group may want to include issues involved from various scenarios that we should recommend to OHIT. The first five recommendations for the consent survey deal with some behavioral health consent release of information. Mike Ouska suggested that the group say that the level of knowledge in some respondents was not good, but if they are surveyed again in six months, their knowledge of HIE will have increased. Instead of recommending opt in or granularity consent, recommend that we will continue to monitor. Mike, Marvin and Jim Hobbs will review the recommendations and circulate to the group.
Next Meeting
The Work Group decided not to meet in July, since so many would be on vacation. The next meeting is scheduled on August 4, 2011, from 3 p.m. until 4 p.m.
Meeting adjourned.

Mr. Corporate Computing Bureaucrat: Tear Down This Wall!
Gene J. is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Who knew that President Reagan's famed late 1980s Berlin Wall speech, with the dramatic challenge, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall," would one day serve as inspiration for a marketing meme for cloud computing?
That's what Datalink (NASDAQ: DTLK), a provider of data center infrastructure and services, and would-be player in the cloud computing game, is today doing.
The firm's marketing materials this week sent to business journalists now include the tagline, "Mr. CIO. Tear Down These Walls," a great play on Reagan's evil empire ending speech.
Whether the words will have their desired effect – the end of walled, proprietary corporate data centers, and a new reliance on the freedom and flexibility offered by software as a service over the Internet, or, "through the cloud," as the nerds now put it – remains to be seen.
But the company, and others like it in cloud computing, are making a good go of it.
Gartner Group, the research consultancy that follows IT, calls cloud computing something more than "a less expensive version of IT as it now exists."
Many other IT companies, from IBM (NYSE: IBM) to Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO), are also in this business of breaking down organizational and technological IT silos that have separated server, and computing, resources from networking and storage for their clients.
Like them, Datalink is growing. Revenues for the quarter that ended Sept. 30, increased 16% to $104.8 million compared to $90.1 million for the quarter that ended Sept. 30, 2011. Revenues for the nine months which ended Sept. 30, increased 30% to $343.9 million compared to $265.3 million for the nine months which ended Sept. 30, 2011. "We continue to see strong demand as evidenced by our strong pipeline of data center solutions prospects," said Paul Lidsky, President and CEO of Datalink.
Datalink projects revenues of $125 million to $135 million for the fourth quarter of 2012 as contrasted with $114.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2011.
But, the company warns that the dour economic outlook – what many are calling the fiscal cliff caused by intransigent demands for a tax increase by the White House – could be a setback for Datalink and cloud computing in general. "Customers are delaying large capital expenditures because of the challenging economic environment," said Lidsky.

This time last year, duck hunters were enthusiastic about the prospects of a super season just ahead. Reproduction was good up north so lots of waterfowl would be winging down to Louisiana to spend the winter.
What looked like a great season ahead turned out to be an overall disappointment. Roger Goodell-like factors entered the picture over which Louisiana's duck hunters had no control, sort of like what happened to the New Orleans Saints this season. While states north of us had plenty of water, Louisiana was in the throes of drought conditions. While ducks dabbled in the plenteous waters of Missouri and Arkansas, they over-flew our part of the world. Ducks don't like to kick up dust when they land.

Coverity: Open Source Code has Fewer Defects
Annual code quality report shows FOSS is more secure at all project size levels.
The 2013 report from the Coverity Scan service shows that open source software has significantly fewer defects per thousand lines of code than proprietary software. Coverity's scan service, which is sponsored by the US Department of Homeland Security, provides free software testing services so developers can look for critical quality and security defects in their C, C++, and Java code. The scan service has been gaining popularity and now supports more than 1,500 projects.
The 2013 report compares the compares the Defect Density (errors per thousand lines of code) for open source versus proprietary software. According to the report, Coverity tested 741 open source projects, totalling 252 million lines of code, and found a Defect Density of 0.59. The service studied 493 proprietary projects, totalling 684 million lines of code, and found a defect density of 0.72.
In past years, open source projects of up to a million lines of code had fewer defects than their proprietary counterparts, but projects with more than a million lines did not perform as well as their closed-source equivalents. In 2013, however, open source performed better at all levels – including larger projects. Coverity believes the reduced Defect Density for larger projects results from increased commitment and dedication from large projects such as NetBSD, FreeBSD, LibreOffice, and the Linux kernel.
The superior performance of open source at all sizes of projects clearly debunks the common FUD myth that concealing the source code improves security. Although FOSS coders might see this as a symbolic victory, it could have a real effect on the way the US government spends money on future software contracts.

NSMS Case Studies
Case Study: Improving emergency status notification
In August 2007 the electrical power to the OUCS machine room had to be suspended for a significant part of a day for a routine five yearly safety inspection. It was impossible to supply sufficient power from alternative sources to keep all the services going but there were some essential services that had to be switched over to an auxiliary supply. The Status service (http://status.ox.ac.uk) provided by OUCS was one of these essential services.
- A small server, able to be powered from the auxiliary supply, was set aside to support the temporary service.
- Windows 2003 was already installed on this server and VMware Server (free software) was installed on this.
- The live VM that was running on the blade system was copied to a file on the temporary server.
- Although the production blade system runs VMware ESX, the VM files for that system are compatible with the VMware Server program so the VM file of the status system was immediately able to run on the temporary server.
- Before the main power down, the blade system was powered down. As soon as the Status Service VM was powered down, the copy installed on the temporary server was started. The temporary server was connected to the same network domain as the blade system so no DNS changes were required; the status service was immediately available.
- After the safety inspection was completed, the temporary Status service VM was powered down and the service was restarted on the blade system.

Edit: Oh Newgrounds... You jerk me around ever so... I guess I'll take you back.
!Please Read Before Viewing!
Hello once again my newgrounds friend! Here is the second half of EP 1. (You should really watch the first one first so you'll know where we're at!) My computer came down with a nasty virus recently and my animation software is acting a bit funny when publishing certain high rez scenes! (Oh NOess!) This means one scene has audio problems, another has glitched symbols, and one is completely unsalvaged. I included apologies in the flash to explain. I'm still submitting this because I think it is a beautiful piece of artwork, so deal with it.
Thank you to my voice actors listed to

has potential
after watching both videos, have decided that this flash has a good story, varied characters, good voice acting, but I kind of hate the fact that the video seperates you from the setting with bad family-guy like flashbacks/ imagination scenes.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars March 11, 2010
...I facepalm for the downvoters
I've watched this - and although I agree with them with the fact that the art isn't as advanced, that's no excuse to downrate it to a 3 or even a 2.
The animation is great, and I found no problems with the voice acting - the music choice was perfect (and the little interruptions in the music from your characters is rather enjoyable).
Just work on your art, and you'll be another sensational flash artist that everyone will be looking up to! *thumbsup*

Students at Skyline High School in Sammamish will try to return to normal Monday, with the first day of mandatory classes scheduled since the threat of a mass shooting was posted online last week.
Classes at the school were canceled Thursday and optional Friday following the threat. But school officials, students and parents expressed faith that students would be safe in their first day back in class.
"I think the school did a great job on Friday keeping us informed of what was going on and keeping the police presence in the school," said Martha Rojas, the parent of a Skyline student. "I believe that it abated the fear my daughter was having to get back to school but she came on Friday and she'll be here tomorrow and I think we'll be OK."
School officials said securty would remain high Monday.
Police and the FBI "hit a dead end" in trying to identify a person who threatened a mass shooting at Skyline because the poster disguised his or her Internet address by routing it through a proxy server in Sweden, police said Friday.
"Detectives have followed up on every tip and lead generated by the public," Sammamish police Sgt. Jessica Sullivan said in a statement. "Based on the interviews they have conducted and the information they have assessed, no suspect had been identified.
Sullivan said there have been no additional threats to Skyline or any other school in the area.
She said a local student posted the attached video on Facebook in response to threat. "I think it is an excellent take-away message," Sullivan said.
Land Scelzi, a Skyline parent, said parents and students were kept informed every step of the way, and that made all the difference.
"A good level of communication," Scelzi said. "They communicate real well with parents and the kids. Our son is ready to go back and he's not worried at all."
Police had first learned of the threat Wednesday night, as calls flooded in from all over the country warning the Sammamish Police Department about the message.
The anonymous message posted on 4chan threatened to "open fire on the people in the commons in the morning until I am either taken down by our schools police officer, or until I run out of mags. I have a separate mag with a few bullets in it that I will use to take my life if I can make it up to that point."
The message described the students at Skyline High School as "pretentious," "smug," "snooty," and complained that "the people at that school use their wealth and social status to act superior to others."
The message was posted alongside a picture of what appeared to be a submachine gun, claiming it was "my father's erma smg."
The photo, however, appeared to be the same photo in a June listing on a Philippine classified ad website. It is not clear whether the poster took the photo himself or from the website.
By 11:44 p.m. Wednesday, Skyline High School announced its intention to close Thursday, asking all students and staff not to come to campus while police investigated.
Skyway senior Riley Begin said, "Tons of people are shocked. I was talking to some of my friends about it earlier, and they were really surprised that someone would even say things like the person did on that post."

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAU) - Republican gubernatorial hopefull Scott Walker made a final visit to Wausau yesterday ahead of Tuesday's primary.
Walker spoke to a crowd of around 50 people at the Rose Garden Saturday night as a part of his Brown Bag tour.
Though Walker's opponent on Tuesday is former congressman Mark Neumann, he spent most of the evening talking about the Democrats and their push to muddy the Republican race with attack ads.
Governor Doyle's campaign has spent a million dollars in funding for a political action group that has run attack ads against Walker ahead of the primary election. He says that shows how much of a threat to the Democrats he is in November.
Mark Neumann will make an appearance tomorrow at Trig's in Wausau at 2:45.

"Diabetic nerve damage can cause a serious cascade of problems - including a loss of sensation in weight-bearing joints such as the ankles and feet - with a progressive weakening of the bones," explains Jack Bondi, DPM, Virtua podiatrist. "Because patients can't feel pain, bone fractures occur without individuals realizing it." These silent untreated fractures heal improperly and lead to deformity. The progressive deterioration associated with Charcot's neuroarthropathy, in a worst case scenario, can also result in tissue ulceration, sepsis and amputation.
Dr. Bondi says: "For the most severe Charcot's cases, there is a newer limb correction modality - an external spatial frame that corrects the deformity in three dimensions." This enables a precise installation not possible with conventional two-dimensional fixation devices.
Although it may also require some internal stabilization, performed through minimally invasive surgery, the advantage of the frame is its external nature - patients can self-adjust the frame, which can improve the rate of overall correction.
"Patient motivation and compliance are integral to the success of this technique," says Dr. Bondi, "but for those who can stay the course, up to three months or more, we can usually get them walking again - remarkable for this patient population."

"Easy" by Real Estate // Days (2011)
Most of my most anticipated albums of the year have come and gone, but Real Estate's October 18th release of Days is still on the horizon and every new taste makes me more and more excited. The breezy jangle pop feel has a melancholic edge that makes it prime material for this time of year. I'm pretty much hooked on this jam today. Highest Recommendation.
Oh, loving this.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- The Golden State Warriors have made another move in hopes of finding a reliable backup to point guard Stephen Curry.
The Warriors acquired Steve Blake from the Los Angeles Lakers for reserve guards Kent Bazemore and MarShon Brooks on Wednesday night, adding a veteran ball-handler to their beleaguered bench.
Word of the deal started to spread just before the Warriors played in Sacramento and the Lakers hosted Houston, with the three players involved saying goodbye to teammates and coaches in the locker room. Both teams confirmed the trade before halftime of their games.
"We think this just bolsters the bench and gives us some more options, some more weapons and a player when you give him the ball you know you can trust him," Warriors general manager Bob Myers said during intermission in Sacramento. "We just think it was a chance to improve our roster and that was our justification."
The trade gives Golden State a savvy veteran off the bench without sacrificing any of its core players or moving into the league's luxury tax.
The Warriors used a $4 million trade exception they got in the deal with Denver that landed free agent Andre Iguodala last summer. The team is about $400,000 under the luxury tax, Myers said.
The Warriors were hoping Blake would be uniform when they host Houston on Thursday night in Oakland.
Blake, who is making $4 million in the final year of his contract, averaged 9.5 points and 7.6 assists while starting all 27 games he played for the injury-depleted Lakers this season. The Warriors are counting on the 33-year-old veteran to improve a bench that has been searching for a solid ball-handler since Jarrett Jack left for Cleveland in free agency last summer.
The Warriors acquired Jordan Crawford and Brooks from Boston in a three-team trade on Jan. 15. Golden State sent struggling backup Toney Douglas to Miami in that deal.
Crawford has been, at times, a prolific scorer but is still learning how to be a better distributor and playmaker on a Warriors team that has plenty of shooters. He entered Wednesday averaging 6.3 points and 2.2 assists in his first 13 games with the Warriors after starting for the Celtics while Rajon Rondo was injured.
"We like our core, and I think our core likes each other. I think it's a core that can win," Myers said. "And our bench, for whatever reason, struggled early on. Anything we could do to fortify it, we tried to do without removing what we consider our core."
The Lakers received some salary cap relief and a pair of young and unproven players in the deal.
Brooks appeared in just seven games with the Warriors and never caught on in Mark Jackson's rotation. Bazemore, best known for his animated cheering on Golden State's bench, also struggled in limited action the past two seasons.
Both had split time with the team's NBA Development League affiliate, the Santa Cruz Warriors, but should get more of an opportunity with the rebuilding Lakers.
It was Canada's night at the NBA Draft as four players from north of the border were selected.

8. Nik Stauskas - Kings

Do Dogs Feel Regret?
Are they truly sorry for mistakes?
Please note comments are moderated. After being approved your comment will appear below.
Submitted by Kathy Konetzka-Close | June 15 2009 | Permalink
Isn't it funny that the conclusion reached by this latest study continues to be so noteworthy? I mean, really—anyone who spends any length of time with dogs has to know, at a deep level, that they enjoy a rich emotional life. It's part of the reason why we enjoy sharing our lives with them. I think part of the problem is that as the planet's dominant species, we tend to believe that anyone who is not us is lesser than. So anyone who believes that their dogs are thinking/feeling beings gets labeled as anthropomorphic. But I've gotta say that living with a teenager is the same no matter what the species; my favorite is the bored sigh—I swear that if my dog was physically able to blow raspberries my way, he would. It cracks me up every time I hear it, and unless I'm really, really busy, it usually works—we go do something! And as an aside, I think I've read every book Patricia McConnell has written and all of them are just the best. If you haven't read her books before, then do yourself a favor and do so. The one recommended here is especially good.

Rated 4.7 out of 5Â by 121 reviewers.
Men's adidas Running Shoes
Energy Boost 2.0 Shoes
Solar Blue/Carbon Mtlc (F32250)
Size Chart
+ Save To Wishlist
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Alan From Franklin Great lower half, Weak upper half Obviously this is just a personal preference. But while I love the cushioning and the perfect rise from front to back, I do not like the upper half construction. The upper half feels like a sock, not a shoe. It is flimsy enough that a quick turn or a slope will cause your foot to shift inside the shoe. I am a little concerned that a second of not paying attention to my foot striking the pavement will cause a turned ankle or a fall. I run in a very hilly area and prefer a bit more substance than this upper half. But in optimum conditions it is a very comfortable shoe and has plenty of cushioning. May 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by 200Pounder Big guy likes bouncy shoe. I am 200+ pounds, 5'11", and was looking for a shoe that would help with the impact my weight puts on my back and legs when jogging. This shoe has a really good sole. It's good from the moment you put it on.. but it really shines after the first couple of miles of your run. That when I feel it really respond.. when I start going faster and my feet hit the ground harder. There are things I wish were better, but it's more about personal taste. If it fits your foot well, it's a good running shoe to add to your collection. My wish list: I wish the arch was just a touch wider. I wish the outer sole looked better. April 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Trying for 50 States So Far So Good The Energy Boost 2.0's are pretty darn good, at least they have been for my first 3 runs. I have done 3, 4 and 7 miles with them and I give them a solid A so far. I am 66 and have only been a runner for 3 years. In analyzing my style, I am definitely a heel striker that needs a lot of cushion. Asics Gel Nimbus has been great but I switched over to Hokas for the extra cushion in February. I wear a size ten shoe, eleven in Asics and Hokas, and the "sizer" said I needed an 11 1/2 so I went with that and I am glad because 11 would have been too small for sure. I guess I would like them to be a bit wider but they still feel great. I have 5 races next month so I will run at least 3 of them in the Adidas and the rest in the Hokas and see how they do. July 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by mcavallo22 Better than original I recently purchased the Boost 2.0 and somehow adidas have managed to make a sure better than the original Boost. The cushioning is about the same, but the fit of the shoe is much improved. The additional padding in the tongue gives the shoe a much more snug fit, and overall the shoe just feels even better on your foot. Running in these, as with the original boost, is an absolute joy. Each step gives you a distinct bounce, and I find that even after longer runs, it is my lungs that want to quit, not my legs. I would highly recommend these shoes to any and everyone. As others have noted, drop a half size to get a snug fit. June 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Redleg Runner Buy This Shoe! As an active duty member of the armed forces I have been running for over twenty years. I've tried every brand, seen every running shoe fad from super technical to minimalist and everything in between. While I was deployed recently my wife sent me a pair of Boost shoes (version 1.0) that she bought at the local post exchange. She told me about them and I was VERY skeptical. Until they arrived and I took them out of the box and ran 5 miles....and it was GLORIOUS. These are the lightest, best fitting, and most responsive shoes I have ever owned. I'm a large frame dude who is a mild over pronator and these work great for me. I'm on my third pair and have even got my wife hooked and them as well. In short....run one time in these shoes and you'll never go back to anything else. April 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5Â by jayster10 good everyday trainer I never considered adidas for running shoes for long distance running and was recommended this at local running store. Its a good shoe, light and cushy, however, personally I would want more forefoot cushioning so that the offset would become 4-6mm and not present 10mm. I really like the upper and how it wraps your foot so that it feels really solid on turns no slippage. Did a long run and no discomfort , but its too early to tell if there will be cumulative damage overtime due to light forefoot cushioning. Definitely buy 1/2 size up, the general fit is great as much as I'm thinking running without socks. April 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5Â by darkchild US Army Runner I have to run all the time in the US Army so comfortable running shoes are a must all the time. I already had the red original Energy Boost shoes and was satisfied with those so I figured it was about time to upgrade and try the Energy Boost 2.0 version. I'm content with my Energy Boost shoes. The tongue seems a little smaller in the 2.0 version, but there's nothing wrong with that. The only drawback that I have had with both the original and the 2.0 version is that I have slightly wide feet so I wish Adidas sold 7.0 W shoe sizes. Please let me know if there is actually a way to special order these if possible. It took me a couple of days to break-in my shoes so both sides of my feet (mostly inner) wouldn't be sore anymore. March 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by DKS Running So Far So Good I've only had the shoes for just over a week now, and have only been about to put about 15 miles on them, but so far its been an absolute blast running in these. So far I've noticed they have been much easier on my joints than my minimalist shoes I had been using prior, obviously that would be the case, but these shoes are not much heavier than those, so its not like I am adding weight for extra cushioning. You really can feel the Boost material at work in these shoes, at least I can, since this is the first go around I have had with the material, and I like it much better than the standard EVA foam. All in all, its a great product, and so far I would heavily recommend it to anyone wanting to give them a shot. I look forward to adding a lot more miles on them and hope they continue to perform at the level they are now! March 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by stackzilla Even better than the original Boost! I got my first pair of Boosts to wear to work since I am on my feet a lot during work. They quickly became my work and running shoes. They are like wearing anti-fatigue mats on your feet all day! I was slightly disappointed in the durability of my first pair because there we parts of the shoe that rubbed against each other and caused holes. That issue has been fixed in the 2.0's. They also seemed to add thicker materials in the back and middle of the shoe, which just makes the shoe feel more stable in general. Still has the amazing boost cushioning that made me fall in love with my first pair. I'm already thinking about buying my 3rd pair! I ordered 1/2 size bigger like they say, and they fit perfect, would suggest doing the same. March 5, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Robhj1980 not bad, but probably not worth the price I purchased these thinking they would feel like walking on a foam anti stress mat, such as those used in kitchens. Unfortunately they just feel like a regular pair of shoes I could get for around 80 bucks at a local shoe store. They definitely run small, I wear a 10.5 and had to return and get an 11.5 and still quite snug. So far, they are just your basic running shoe, nothing special, and I feel I overpaid by approximately 100 bucks or so. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing adidas. Adidas makes great shoes. They just need to adjust pricing in relation to the shoe feel and performance. I ended up putting my old running shoes back on after an hour in the energy boost 2.0s. August 20, 2014

Three suburban men have been arrested in a drug bust that began after five pounds of marijuana were delivered to a home in Naperville.
Danial M. Waseem, 24, of Naperville; Awais M. Khan, 27, of Des Plaines; and Nickolas J. Gelardi, 18, of Bolingbrook were arreste. Waseem and Khan are charged with trafficking in marijuana and manufacture/delivery of marijuana. Gelardi was charged with manufacture/delivery.
On Wednesday, U.S. Postal Inspection Service agents and Naperville police conducted an investigation in various locations in Will, DuPage and Cook counties after postal inspectors intercepted a suspicious package containing five pounds of marijuana.
It was to be delivered to a home on the 800 block of Pueblo Court in Naperville. Agents and officers made the delivery, then watched Waseem and Khan leave with the marijuana and drive to Gelardi's house in Bolingbrook.
They were seen making "hand to hand" drug transactions with buyers in Naperville area business parking lots, and were conducting a drug transaction with Gerardi when they were taken into custody without incident, police said.
In addition to the package of marijuana, additional large amounts of pot, cash and paraphernalia were found in Waseem's car and Gelardi's residence, police said.
The cahrges were filed in Will County, with additional charges pending in DuPage and Cook.

We first met him four years ago when he was 13. Devin Davis had just won his first national award for his "Knock Your Socks Off Mango Delight."
Since then, Devin has gone from desserts to full-course meals. "It's just grown into a passion," Devin said as he scurried around the kitchen making dinner for his family.
Kids typically run around soccer fields. Devin prefers the kitchen.
"At least we get something out of it. The soccer moms have to go through McDonald's because they don't have time to cook," said Tina Davis, Devin's mom.
One day, the 17-year-old senior in high school from Plant City hopes to go pro.
"I wanna open my own restaurant and then hopefully I'd like to have my own cooking TV show," said Devin.
The hardware is on his side. His house is filled with trophies and first place ribbons. Devin's drilled the competition dozens of times in local, state, and national cook-offs.
The fresh faced kid can also tenderize and grill a steak like no other.
"He's taught me a few things, but I won't tell him that," his envious mom added.

Discovering the Carbonería in Seville, Spain
It is a balmy Andalusian evening. You and your closest friends are wandering the bougainvillea-lined streets of Santa Cruz, Seville's quaint historical district. After a round of tapas and Rioja you don't think the evening can get much better, but you're wrong. Your Sevillano friend steps into a quaint bar in run down, whitewashed building. Thinking it's time for another helping of jamón serrano, you are bewildered when he walks straight to the back of the room, ducks into a broom closet…and pulls you in after him. He takes you farther and farther into the dark, down a narrow passage, parts a velvety curtain, and with a flourish presents to you the most fabulous bar you've ever seen! The space is cavernous. Narrow steel tables stretch into the distance, crowded with stylish Spaniards packed shoulder to shoulder, smoking, drinking, seeing and being seen. You belly up to the bar and order a pitcher of the fruity, frothy house special, and while away the evening talking, laughing, and taking in spontaneous outbursts of flamenco.
- Jossie McManus There really are no words to describe a flamenco in Spain
