FLORENCE — In little more than a year from now, ninth-graders in Florence will be boasting brand new digs with the opening of the Florence Freshman Center on the high school campus.
During a ground-breaking ceremony Monday, Superintendent Janet Womack said the time is right to build the new facility. The multi-level school will consist of 21 classrooms, a multi-purpose room and accommodate 500 students.
Florence school board president, Bill Jordan, said the state-of-the art facility is scheduled for completion in January 2014. Architects on the project were the firm Lambert, Ezell and Durham. Johnson Contractors, of Muscle Shoals, was awarded the construction bid. Construction begins within two weeks, Womack said.
The new school is being built as the result of enrollment growth the past six years, Womack said.
That growth "is indicative of our community's support for the excellence of our school system and what's going on in our classrooms daily," she said.
Womack said funding for the project, as well as that for the new sports facility, also located on the high school campus, comes through capital projects money through a bond issuance. The sports facility is scheduled for completion by the end of December. That project cost $1.2 million.
The bond issuance for the new Florence Freshman Center is $6.8 million and also includes funding for the addition of an office complex at Florence High School as well as improvements at the Florence Middle School campus.
"Because of (the Florence school district's) exemplary (fiscal) standing and an interest rate of 2.88 percent, the time is now to be constructing," Womack said.
The current Florence Freshman Center is in the former Coffee High School building with Florence Middle School. The building is occupied by 1,160 students, 390 of them ninth-graders.
"When you look at how many students are in that building, every class change is like black Friday shopping in the hallways," Womack said.
But there are multiple other concerns with the freshman center program in its current location. Some classrooms have double use and more than half of the freshman class participates in extracurricular activities that require them to be on the high school campus. Shuttle buses run three times a day to the high school.
In addition, the current location isn't wired for the needed technology capacity, but the new building will be. With the removal of the ninth-graders, the existing wiring will be sufficient for technology for the middle school grades at the existing building.
Florence Freshman Center Principal Rod Sheppard said the addition of the new building will open up opportunities for the system's ninth-graders.
"I've said many times how nice it would be to have our own building and now it's happening," he said. "Our faculty and students are thrilled. It's going to be a new day for the Florence Freshman Center. We continue to offer the only freshman program in the city of Florence."

Disabled Train Forces Delays on LIRR
Jamaica, NY - (WALK) Long Island Rail Road officials say service is restored on all branches after a disabled train caused nearly system-wide delays of up to an hour for westbound commuters Thursday morning.
The "non-passenger" train was disabled west of Jamaica Station at about 8:00 a.m, according to LIRR officials, causing delays on all branches except Port Washington branch along Long Island's north shore.
Officials sya the disabled train was moved to a rail yard, and service was resumed later Thursday morning. An investigation continues.

The additional costs associated with adopting renewable energy are frequently used to argue that it is too expensive to adopt renewables. However, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory has taken a look at the costs and the best place levitra doses offsets from renewable energy use and finds "The answer: the cost is cheapest cialis prices a tiny fraction of the ultimate savings."
Although the costs for the equipment needed to integrate renewables into the existing grid are not insignificant, the associated savings in reduced fuel costs are far greater. Cycling fossil power plants to best way to take cialis generate power intermittently also increases wear on the rx generic levitra equipment, which leads to increased maintenance costs. But overall, the savings are far more than the increases.
The other key finding is that, as renewables continue to be integrated into the grid, the continuing costs will become smaller. Making the systems able to work with renewables connected to the grid is something that gets easier and less expensive. So, in a way, the early adopters have made an even bigger contribution to improving the energy infrastructure.

The cheapest way to produce electricity is coal, oil and natural gas which costs $0.00044 per KWh whereas wind energy costs $0.02337 and solar energy $0.02434 per KWh.
Okay, so the renewable premium is 2.5 cents per KW-h. That's about a 25% premium over the average electricity sector price where I live, and more in regions of http://www.marthawashingtoninn.com/order-levitra the country where energy is cheaper (which is most of them, since I live in Michigan.) It also shows just how much of energy prices are pure profit, and would be negotiable...
Up to you whether a 25% premium and declining is www.hasselaar.nl worth making good policy over. I think it is.

Wonderful Save-the-Date
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets I loved my save-the-date! I went with a light blue background color with our engagement picture. We went with the wording that was already set with the save-the-date. I was very happy with how high of quality the magnet was. I am so happy with my save-the-date and have received so many compliments on them.
Honeycomb magnet Save the date
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets I ordered the save the date magnets which turned out pretty good. Only thing I didn't like the fact the color displayed was blue and I ordered them cause that's our wedding color. But I received it in Green. I would recommend to order the sample to test color. Otherwise it was a lovely magnet. I would highly recommend this site.
Save the Date Magnets - Perfect!
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets Exactly what I expected!! They came out beautiful. Thank you!
very pleased!
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets My fiancée and I are very happy with the save the date magnets. They are a good quality and look professional. Also they arrived 2 days early which is great for an anxious bride to be! Colors go perfect with our theme.
Great graphics!
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets Not only was I impressed with the design of my magnet save-the-dates, I was also thrilled that magnet street sent me a 25% off code in the mail! Even before my discount they still ranked at being the best priced magnet invites over all the other top retailers on the internet. The magnets are a little flimsy, but they work just fine. I will definitely be ordering my invites/programs from them!

The Beltless Magnetic Conveyors (BLM), available in a variety of models, provide effective control of ferrous materials such as stampings, turnings, chips, fasteners and scrap. Permanent magnets are conveyed below a non-magnetic stainless steel slider bed to move and convey ferrous metal objects. The sealed conveyor housing can be completely submerged in machine reservoir tanks while the internal, self-adjusting take-up system eliminates the need for maintenance, the company says. BLM conveyors are offered with many design options and can be supplied with ancillary components including feeders and hoppers.

Drawing to Canvas by using eSWT API is significantly slower on Nokia Belle when compared to the previous Symbian releases.
Some of the time consuming drawing can be optimized by drawing outside of the paintControl method first before invoking the method.
This issue will be fixed in the coming software updates for Nokia Belle.

Why are some people sooooo draining?
We all have at least a couple of those super high-maintenance types in our lives, and because the energy-sucking vampires tend to be either relatives or co-workers or in-laws, simply cutting ties usually isn't an option.
So how do we deal with these people on a regular basis without losing our minds? Is it even possible?
Apparently, yes -- there are a few methods for staying sane when the crazy train comes crashing into town.
Of course I'm not naming any names, but let's say you know one or more of these (completely fictitious) people ...
The "all eyes on ME" old friend
Okay, you know the Kristen Wiig character "Penelope" on SNL? She's the stereotypical one-upper: "I've known them for, like, seven years. So, just a little bit longer. I've just known them for a really long time, so -- longer, just better friends. So -- longer than you guys. So -- "
How to deal?!
Remember, "High-maintenance people live in a world that revolves around them." If you have to hang with someone like this, keep your expectations low -- and DON'T put yourself out there. (Because they probably won't appreciate the effort.)
The "always has to be right" mom
Good luck arguing with this lady! You'd think it was her job to prove you wrong.
How to deal?!
As with small, stubborn children -- choose your battles wisely. "It's important to pick only the battles you need to win. If you don't, you're just going to end up exhausting yourself."
The "tasmanian devil sister"
She's a whirlwind of disaster and somehow manages to pull you into every single screw-up (and make you feel like it's your fault!).
How to deal?!
Brace yourself for the drama you KNOW is coming anyway. At least this way you're prepared for the next meltdown, whereas lying to yourself ("THIS time I'm going to have a nice, calm lunch with my sister!") is just going to make things worse.
The "oh, you don't mind, do you?" co-worker
Let me guess -- you did a favor for this person once, and they took that gesture as an invitation to use you like a dishrag.
How to deal?!
Lay some ground rules. It won't be fun, but it MUST be done. You can be nice about it, but make limitations clear: Your busiest hours are such-and-such to such-and-such so you'd appreciate not being disturbed during that window of time, etc.
Any of these high-maintenance personality profiles sound familiar to you?
How do you deal with the high-maintenance people in your life?
Image via Amanda Wood/Flickr
Lol who told you you can't cut ties with all those people? Noone is obligated to be associated with family, in laws, or coworkers. Cutting ties is a very valid option.
I have a high maintenance someone in my life and since we are related by marriage and I have to be around her at times I just do my best to ignore and then go laugh about it over a drink or 3 when it's over.
I have a high maintainence sister in law and I disagree that you can't cut ties, or at least severely limit the time you spend with them. It's really not that hard. When she called, I didn't answer. When she texted, I waited anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour to reply, and then it was a basic answer. Requests/offers to hang out were met with "I'm busy" or "Not this time."
Now I only see her at holidays and birthdays, if that. When I do have to see her it is never one on one anymore, so I either ignore her all together (except for the polite hello) or limit the conversation.
I disagree that you are obligated to "deal" with them. Some family you may not be able to get rid of all together, but I don't think you need to continually subject yourself to the drama either.
PS. My life is much calmer and HAPPIER since putting up this huge wall with sister in law.
The only people you really can't rid yourself of is your co-workers. I have noticed that people do not have a choice about their co-workers or even how closely they have to work with them. It might be painful, but you can cut ties with family, and then the pain will be over.

For Oakland food desert: A people's grocery store
The Bay Area may be known internationally as a foodie destination, but there are pockets of the region that stand in stark contrast to the world of organic produce, farmers' markets and artisanal edibles. West Oakland, for example, is what some call a "food desert." This low-income neighborhood has not sustained a full-service grocery store in years. Now, one man and his grassroots organization hope to change that by opening a "People's Community Market," the culmination of many years of groundwork and a lot of vision.
Brahm Ahmadi came to West Oakland more than 10 years ago as a community organizer focused on environmental issues, but he quickly found that the area's residents were far more concerned with their lack of access to fresh, healthy food. As a result he founded People's Grocery in 2002.
People's Grocery is a collection of programs and experiments whose underlying, long-term goal has always been the creation of a brick-and-mortar grocery store — when the time seemed right. Ahmadi, who had no experience in retail, no food background and no history in the neighborhood, knew he had to invest some time into researching the idea and laying the foundation before breaking ground on what is known as the People's Community Market. … Continue reading »

Made this after watching a Jamie Oliver show on how to use leftover pulled pork. Took others recommendations to use some wheat flour to get some extra fiber and they turned great. There is a lot of work in making these from scratch if your not an astute baker, but a nice treat. Even better if you make extras ahead and put them in the freezer ready to go.
Steamed Pork Buns (Char Siu Bao)
Photo: Becky Luigart-Stayner; Styling: Cindy Barr
These buns are a grab-and-go street food in China. They were also popular in our Test Kitchens, where they earned our highest rating. Use a multitray bamboo steamer so you can cook all the buns at one time. To make them up to two months ahead, fill the dough, and freeze unsteamed buns on a tray in the freezer before placing them in a freezer-safe zip-top plastic bag. Steam directly from the freezer for an additional five minutes.
Yield: 10 servings (serving size: 1 bun)

- Filling:
- 1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
- 1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup thinly sliced green onions
- 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Dough:
- 1 cup warm water (100° to 110°)
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 package dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (about 14 2/3 ounces)
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1. To prepare the filling, rub five-spice powder evenly over pork. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat the pan with cooking spray. Add pork to pan; cook 18 minutes or until a thermometer registers 155°, turning pork occasionally. Remove pork from pan, and let stand 15 minutes.
- 2. Cut pork crosswise into thin slices; cut slices into thin strips. Place pork in a medium bowl. Add onions and next 7 ingredients (through 1/4 teaspoon salt); stir well to combine. Cover and refrigerate.
- 3. To prepare dough, combine 1 cup warm water, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl; let stand 5 minutes.

Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in size. (Gently press two fingers into dough. If indentation remains, dough has risen enough.)
- 5. Punch dough down; let rest 5 minutes. Turn dough out onto a clean surface; knead in baking powder. Let dough rest 5 minutes.
- 6. Divide dough into 10 equal portions, forming each into a ball. Working with one dough ball at a time (cover remaining dough balls to keep from drying), roll ball into a 5-inch circle. Place 1/4 cup filling in center of dough circle. Bring up sides to cover filling and meet on top. Pinch and seal closed with a twist. Repeat procedure with remaining dough balls and filling.
- 7. Arrange 5 buns seam side down, 1 inch apart, in each tier of a 2-tiered bamboo steamer. Stack tiers; cover with lid.
- 8. Add water to a large skillet to a depth of 1 inch; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Place steamer in pan; steam 15 minutes or until puffed and set. Cool 10 minutes before serving.

"The choice of Vice President is going to be extremely difficult for Mitt Romney to game…" The GOP campaign has good reason to be nervous about the running mate choice. Will it be someone who previously sought the presidential nomination — Michele Bachmann or Rick Santorum — or someone out of left field, as Sarah Palin was for John McCain's campaign?
We spoke to Samuel L. Popkin, author of The Candidate: What It Takes to Win – and Hold – the White House, about Mitt Romney's choices.
The Bryant Park Reading Room and New York Historical Society will be hosting Sam Popkin to discuss The Candidate and the election. So, you can catch Sam Popkin in person in New York at the Bryant Park Reading Room, 40th Street and 6th Avenue on 15 August at 7:00 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.
President Clinton's former press secretary, Mike McCurry recently reviewed the book for the Washington Post: "The Candidate will make enjoyable reading in the midst of the current campaign. One of Mitt Romney's big money guys, Anthony Scaramucci, reportedly just sent the book to the former governor's entire campaign team. All the Obamaites would be wise to get copies, too."
Samuel L. Popkin is the author of The Candidate: What It Takes to Win – and Hold – the White House and Professor of Political Science at the University of California, San Diego. He has also been a consulting analyst in presidential campaigns, serving as consultant to the Clinton campaign on polling and strategy, to the CBS News election units from 1983 to 1990 on survey design and analysis, and more recently to the Gore campaign. He has also served as consultant to political parties in Canada and Europe and to the Departments of State and Defense. His most recent book is The Reasoning Voter: Communication and Persuasion in Presidential Campaigns; earlier he co-authored Issues and Strategies: The Computer Simulation of Presidential Campaigns; and he co-edited Chief of Staff: Twenty-Five Years of Managing the Presidency. Read his previous blog post "Five pivotal moments from incumbent campaigns" and view his previous video "How will Mitt Romney fare in the general election?".

'Weapon Of War' Or Just Another Gun?
By Phil Williams
Chief Investigative Reporter
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The tragedy in Newtown has opened an emotional debate over how much gun is too much.
One of the guns that some lawmakers now want to ban -- the Barrett .50-caliber sniper rifle -- is made just down the road in Rutherford County. Murfreesboro native Ronnie Barrett, the man who invented the weapon, now says it's just another gun.
But our NewsChannel 5 investigation discovered that some of the inventor's own claims have given ammunition to his critics.
"You demand a battle-proven rifle that has seen service defending freedom around the world," a deep-voiced announcer declares in a YouTube video posted by Barrett Firearms.
It's a weapon that Ronnie Barrett himself has described in dramatic terms.
"Unbelievable, unconceivable power is now in the hands of that individual soldier -- and that's what makes it the ultimate weapon," he said during the Ultimate Weapons program on the Military Channel.
Featured in the film The Hurt Locker, the Barrett has been hailed as a devastating weapon in the hands of America's military.
"That's what's great about the Barrett - it's the big fist of death coming at you," said a U.S. Army sniper in a History Channel show.
It's death that the Barrett .50-caliber rifle can deliver from more than a mile away.
But "it's less regulated than say a 22-caliber handgun in this handgun," said Tom Diaz, a gun control researcher who has spent years studying the Barrett and other .50-caliber sniper rifles.
Those weapons, he believes, could be catastrophic in the hands of terrorists or anyone else with evil motives.
"When I talk to people about the Barrett, they can't believe its capabilities," Diaz told NewsChannel 5 Investigates. "They say, oh, that can't be, the government wouldn't let you buy those. Well, yeah, they do let you buy them."
Barrett, who serves on the NRA's board of directors, refused to be interviewed about the weapon he invented.
It was designed to use the huge rounds fired from the legendary Browning Machine Gun.
Barrett's own patent calls it a "shoulder-fire able, armor-penetrating gun."
"You do not hunt, typically, with a Barrett .50-caliber -- it's utility is in military effectiveness," said John Harris, executive director for the Tennessee Firearms Association.
NewsChannel 5 Investigates asked, "You don't quibble with the notion that it's a weapon of war -- it's just a weapon of war that you think everyone has a right to own?"
"Well, I think you ought to have a choice to own it," he answered.
That despite claims that, we discovered, Barrett made in an early promotion about the weapon's "first strike capability."
"Compressor sections of jet engines or the transmissions of helicopters are likely targets ... making it capable of destroying multimillion-dollar aircraft with a single hit," it read.
That brochure, Ronnie Barrett says, was written for a military audience.
"Those are not Tom Diaz's words," we noted.
"No," the gun control advocate answered, "they are not my words. Those are the words of either Ronnie Barrett himself or his copywriter."

Test Shows Barrett .50-Cal 'Slicing Through Steel'
NewsChannel 5 Investigates asked Harris, "Why should ordinary citizens be able to purchase a weapon that's capable of destroying multimillion-aircraft with a single hit?"
"If you go down the path of the Second Amendment, it is geared towards a political right to be able to own weapons suitable for overthrowing the government if necessary," he said, "then Barrett's kind of rifle is perfectly suitable for individual use."
But Diaz's concerns include more than aircraft as targets.
"It's explosive depot facilities, it's petroleum facilities, it's toxic gases like chlorine on rail cars," he added.
We asked Harris, "The notion that something could be used to destroy a multimillion-dollar aircraft is fine with you?"
"Well, you know, on 9/11, they used box cutters and brought them down, so I don't see that big of a difference," he said.
But our investigation discovered that the Barrett has a troubling history that its defenders have been reluctant to acknowledge. (See .50-Caliber Crimes map below)
At Waco, cult leader David Koresh used Barretts to hold off federal authorities, leading to the FBI's fateful decision to bring in U.S. Army tanks.
In Kansas City, a deranged man opened fire on first responders with a Barrett, blasting huge chunks out of a fire truck.
In Georgia, investigators believe robbers used a Barrett to attack a Wells Fargo armored car, blowing holes through its bulletproof glass.
And, in Mexico, authorities say a police helicopter was forced down in 2011 after being shot up by a Barrett. A photo, obtained by NewsChannel 5 Investigates, shows where one .50-cal bullet blasted through the chopper's supposedly bulletproof windshield.
A recent congressional report concludes that the Barrett .50-caliber is now providing a "significant upgrade to the cartels' ability to inflict serious damage and casualties on their enemies."
Even Republican Congressman Darrell Issa has also called it a "fearsome rifle" and a "weapon of war."
"This is not coincidence," Diaz said, referring to the cartels' use of the weapon. "This is giving criminal organizations essentially paramilitary power."
So is it affecting our national security?
"No question about it," Diaz said, "because it's made it possible to confront the legitimate government."
But the ability to confront the legitimate government is fine with Harris and other gun rights advocates.
"That's what the Second Amendment stands for," he said.
While he refused to sit down and answer our questions, Ronnie Barrett sent an email to NewsChannel 5 Investigates in which he claimed that without special, military ammunition, his weapon is just "another gun."
He even claimed that there is no armor-piercing ammunition of any kind available on the civilian market.
But our investigation discovered that if you go on the Internet there's plenty of it.
As for Diaz, he insisted that he doesn't want to ban the .50-caliber sniper rifle; he just wants to regulate it.

Born in Kuwait and educated in Rome and at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, Robert Tateossian hung up his banker's stripes early in his career to launch Tateossian London in 1990. Looking for a way to update bland business attire, he turned his discerning eye to his own everyday accessory: cufflinks. The result was an overnight sensation, as style-starved men seeking luxury with a hint of humor clamored for Tateossian's witty designs. Almost instantly he was dubbed the "king of cufflinks" and adopted by the British press as the next big thing. The line soon grew to include jewelry, watches, and accessories no gentleman should be without — all in materials that reflect Robert Tateossian's impeccable taste.
Leather and beaded accessories to liven up a simple shirt and tie.
Accessories with personality to complete your summer suited look.
Everything you need to look sharp at the office or for a night on the town
Regardless of what a father says, he definitely wants a great gift this Father's Day. Here, we've got a handpicked selection of gifts for him, including watches, books, barware, and more.

A Valuable Asset
To further brand recognition and strengthen the BUNN identity, the following graphic standards must be followed at all times. The BUNN logo, tagline, and signature may only be used in the black, white, and BUNN Red (PMS 185). Any exceptions must be approved by the BUNN Marketing Department. Improper use of the logo, tagline, or signature will jeopardize their status as legally registered components of our identity. The BUNN Logo
The BUNN Logo consists of the word BUNN in all capital, black letters, with a registration mark and a red rule line above the type.
The logo may be used in one or two-color variations depending on the situation. The rule should be printed in PMS 185 (BUNN Red), and used as a spot-color whenever possible. Only in instances of short-run, low-budget pieces is it acceptable to print a four-color process (CMYK) as a substitute. In this situation, the color values are as follows: C=0, M=91, Y=76, K=0. When used on a dark background, reverse the letters out in white type and use the red rule. Whenever possible, use the two-color versions of the logo. For single color print jobs the rule may be black when using black lettering or white when using white lettering.
Graphic Standards Page
Logo Relative Design & Proportions
Copy Guidelines
The BUNN logo should never be crowded, hindered, or merged with another object, graphic, or copy surrounding it. Keep a minimum clear zone of two times the height of the rule line around all sides of the logo.
When referring to the company or its products in copy use "BUNN" in all caps. The company may also be referred to as "Bunn-O-Matic"; however, the word "Bunn" should not be in all caps when used in this way (example of incorrect usage "BUNN-O-Matic").

- Title: Machine Print Filter for Handwriting Analysis
- Abstract: Existing document decomposition models fail in well separating the zone areas of printed text and handwritten text when they are close or even touching each other. This paper presents a simple and robust algorithm to filter out the printed content in a mixed document. Following the traditional bottom-up approach, the printed text candidates are extracted and detected in the connected component level. Then the relative spatial relation and windowbased filter help providing useful information to decide the components to be removed finally. Results with manually cropped signature blocks that contain extraneous printed text show that over 85% of printed text components are removed while preserving handwritten content.

Objective:The purpose of this study was to determine whether men and women with schizophrenia demonstrate differences in cognitive abilities.Method:Two cohorts of patients with schizophrenia, an acute first-episode and a chronically hospitalized group, were evaluated with a neuropsychological battery and compared with a normal group of subjects.Results:After adjustment for age, age at onset, and premorbid IQ, male chronic patients performed worse than female chronic patients on measures of visual memory. These differences were eliminated after control for symptom severity. No other differences were found in cognitive function between men and women in either cohort.Conclusions:Sex differences in cognitive function in schizophrenic patients are not robust findings. Am J Psychiatry 1998; 155: 1437-1439
Although female subjects with schizophrenia have a later age at onset and better clinical outcome than male subjects do, the literature examining sex differences in neuropsychological function of schizophrenic patients is less clear. Previous studies failed to account for age at onset or illness severity, have not included normal comparison groups, and have used relatively small and heterogeneous samples R2115510BDBBGHDI-R2115510BDBCEFDA.
We evaluated cognitive functioning in two homogeneous groups of schizophrenic patients with different durations and severities of illness. Early age at onset has been associated with worse performance on some cognitive measures R2115510BDBCIGDB. Accordingly, we predicted that 1) male patients would demonstrate greater impairment than female patients, and 2) no sex differences in cognitive functioning would emerge after control for age at onset.
Cohort 1. Inpatients consecutively admitted to an acute research unit for first-episode schizophrenia in Stony Brook, N.Y. (N=58; 41 men, 17 women), gave written informed consent for participation, as previously detailed R2115510BDBDJJJA. All patients met DSM-III-R criteria for chronic schizophrenia at 2-year follow-up. The mean age for men was 25.8 years (SD=6.2), and for women, 30.4 (SD=8.0); the mean ages at onset of psychotic symptoms were 24.2 (SD=5.6) and 29.8 years (SD=7.8), respectively.
Cohort 2. Chronic inpatients from Napa State Hospital (N=74; 51 men, 23 women) with a DSM-III-R diagnosis of schizophrenia gave written informed consent for participation (previously detailed R2115510BDBCIGDB). The mean age for men was 35.1 years (SD=8.3), and for women, 40.3 (SD=9.5); the mean ages at onset were 16.6 (SD=4.2) and 20.3 years (SD=4.9), respectively. Thus, this cohort had been ill for an average of 18.9 years (SD=7.9).
Patient groups were rated with the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) R2115510BDBBHJJB within 2 weeks of testing. Negative symptom and positive symptom scales were constructed as described previously R2115510BDBCIGDB. There was a statistically significant group-by-sex interaction for positive symptoms (F=5.6, df=1, 118, p<0.02); post hoc Tukey tests indicated that chronically ill men had higher scores than women (p<0.03). There were no significant differences in chlorpromazine or benztropine equivalents between sexes in either cohort.
A normal comparison group (N=74; 56 men, 18 women; mean ages=32.1 [SD=9.6] and 24.2 years [SD=4.9], respectively) was recruited from the community near cohort 1, gave written informed consent, and was screened with structured psychiatric interviews R2115510BDBBDHFD.
A battery of tests measuring different cognitive domains was administered to all three groups R2115510BDBBDHFD. In order to control for differences between patient and comparison groups on demographic variables known to influence test performance, we performed group-by-sex multivariate analyses of covariance (MANCOVAs) on dependent measures from six cognitive domains, using age and the Reading score from Wide-Range Achievement Test—Revised (WRAT-R) as covariates. WRAT-R Reading score has been shown to be the best measure of premorbid intellectual functioning in psychotic disorders R2115510BDBDEHEB. All tests contributing to each domain are listed in T1. Analyses were repeated with age at onset as a third covariate. When the overall MANCOVA was statistically significant, univariate tests (analyses of variance) were performed.
There were statistically significant group effects for all cognitive domains (p<0.0001), indicating that schizophrenic patients performed worse than the comparison group. There were also overall main effects for sex in executive (F=2.8, df=5, 194, p<0.02), verbal memory (F=3.4, df=7, 192, p<0.002), spatial memory (F=3.6, df=4, 195, p<0.008), and concentration/speed (F=2.0, df=7, 192, p<0.05) domains. Men performed better than women in all domains except verbal memory, where women performed significantly better.
There were statistically significant group-by-sex interactions for spatial memory (F=2.1, df=8, 390, p<0.03) and sensory-perceptual (F=2.0, df=8, 390, p<0.05) domains. Univariate tests revealed statistically significant interactions for number of errors on the Benton Visual Retention Test (F=3.1, df=2, 198, p<0.05) and immediate score on Visual Reproduction (F=3.1, df=2, 198, p<0.05). Post hoc analyses indicated that chronically ill men were more impaired than women on the Benton Visual Retention Test (Tukey's honestly significant difference, p<0.02). For the sensory-perceptual interaction, none of the univariate analyses of covariance (ANCOVAs) was statistically significant.
When MANCOVAs were repeated with age at onset added as a covariate, both spatial memory (F=2.6, df=4, 122, p<0.04) and sensory-perceptual (F=2.4, df=4, 122, p<0.05) MANCOVAs remained statistically significant. However, only the univariate test for the Benton Visual Retention Test reached statistical significance (F=5.5, df=1, 125, p<0.02), with chronically ill schizophrenic men having significantly more errors on the test than chronically ill women (Tukey's honestly significant difference, p<0.03).
Because male chronic schizophrenic patients demonstrated significantly greater positive symptoms than women and because some BPRS positive and negative symptom scales correlated with spatial memory tests, ANCOVA analyses were repeated with positive and negative symptoms added as covariates for each spatial memory variable. There were no significant differences between the sexes on these ANCOVAs.
Contrary to our prediction, chronically ill schizophrenic men were more impaired than women on measures of spatial memory after control for differences in age at onset. However, those differences were eliminated after symptom differences between men and women were taken into account. Thus, we found no sex differences in cognitive functioning in two groups of schizophrenic patients, a first-episode cohort and a severely ill group, after taking into consideration normally occurring sex-related differences in cognitive abilities, age at onset, and symptom expression. Consistent with the literature on general sex differences in cognitive abilities R2115510BDBDEBAG, men performed better than women on measures of spatial memory, spatial problem-solving ability, and pure motor speed, while women were superior to men on verbal memory.
Controlling for differences due to sex-related symptomatic expressions of the illness biases the results against finding a sex difference in cognition. However, if differences in cognition between male and female schizophrenic patients are due to differences in symptoms themselves or time at onset, then cognitive sex differences in schizophrenia may reflect symptom variation and onset differences between the sexes. Identifying causes for differences on these measures may elucidate the neurodevelopmental and pathophysiological underpinnings of schizophrenia.

Crunchy, not Spicy Peanut Slaw
OK, here is a recipe that is entirely thanks to the CSA. Anything I make with cabbage is; they have been giving us a cabbage a week, and that's a lot of cabbage. You can only garnish so much posole, you know what I'm saying? So, then: slaws.
Peattie loves any kind of peanut-flavored thing (peanut noodles, panang curry, peanut sauce) so this was his request and the result of another Google search. It was good, but I thought it needed more spice. I added maybe 1/3 a jalapeno, diced, and when I make this again (which I will be), I'd add more.
Crunchy Peanut Slaw
Barely modified from the Kitchn
- 1 medium head green cabbage, outer leaves removed
- 1 1/2 cups roasted, unsalted peanuts
- 1 bunch green onions, chopped (both white and green parts)
- 1 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 jalapeno
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup light oil, like canola
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar (or more, to taste)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce (or more, to taste)
Shred the cabbage very finely, then toss with the peanuts in a large bowl. Add the scallions and cilantro and toss again, then season lightly with S&P. Whisk the dressing until emulsified, then taste and adjust to your own preferences of sweetness and saltiness. Toss with the cabbage. Eat with gusto.

Washington Governor Prepares To Make Moral Case For Carbon Reduction
By Austin Jenkins
Washington Governor Jay Inslee is preparing to take action on an issue that could secure his legacy or complicate his re-election chances. He wants to cap carbon, the biggest culprit in greenhouse gas emissions in Washington. It's a controversial and potentially costly idea. But the Democrat believes long-term it's an economic and, even, moral imperative.
It's no secret that Jay Inslee is passionate about combatting climate change. But it was a surprise last January when Inslee's inauguration turned into a coronation of sorts. This was Earth Day founder Denis Hayes speaking in the Rotunda of the state capitol.
Denis Hayes: "Jay Inslee is the first political chief executive in American history to be elected principally on a platform of combatting climate disruption (applause)."
Hayes didn't stop there.
Denis Hayes: "More than any other president or governor before him, Jay has an electoral mandate on this issue."
Others would say Inslee has a legal mandate. By law, Washington is supposed to reduce all of its greenhouse gas emissions including carbon to 1990 levels by 2020. That's just six years from now. In his inaugural address, Inslee called climate change a "grave and immediate danger"
Jay Inslee: "On climate change we have settled the scientific controversy. That's resolved (applause). What remains now is how we respond to the challenge."
It's been more than a year since that speech. And Inslee may soon announce how to plans to respond. For months, he's been signaling that a cap on carbon emissions is what's needed. Here's Inslee at a recent news conference.
Jay Inslee: "It is clear to me that in some sense, in some way we'll need to have some restriction on carbon pollution."
But what would that cap look like? There are any number of policies Inslee could pursue – none politically easy. Still it looks like there's one Inslee thinks he can implement unilaterally: a low-carbon fuel standard. But that could drive up the cost of a gallon of gas. And that concerns Republicans like state Senator Curtis King.
Curtis King: "You gotta look at the impact that that type of thing is going to have on how our businesses in the state of Washington can remain competitive."
Inslee promises any climate change policies he pursues will be thoroughly costed-out. But it's the public, not lawmakers Inslee will ultimately have to convince. Here's one big reason why.
Gasoline powered cars are the single greatest source of carbon emissions in Washington. The question is: would drivers pay more or change their behavior to reduce their carbon footprint? My informal pump-side survey at a gas station south of Olympia produced a mix of answers. Shyler Bardfield is a yes.
Shyler Bardfield: "I could pay a little more if it meant helping the environment and solving problems bit by bit, I'd definitely to that."
But Torey Krieger is wary.
Torey Krieger: "I don't know. I would think about being more fuel efficient before increasing the price of gas."
And then there's Dennis Teague who definitely does not trust the governor to make these decisions.
Dennis Teague: "He better have a group of non-political scientists."
That's a really important point says Larry Pryor at the University of Southern California. He's an expert on climate change communication. Pryor believes scientists are underutilized as evangelists for policies to address greenhouse gas emissions.
Larry Pryor: "They should be organized, they should be brought into this discussion in a big way and the public will pay attention to them."
The challenge with carbon emissions is you can't seem them. Pryor says that makes the role of scientists all the more important if Governor Inslee hopes to convince the public carbon emissions are a real problem.
Larry Pryor: "It's quite rational for people to say 'we want more proof, we want more certainty that what is being proposed to be enacted is actually going to do good.'"
Especially if it's going to cost them more in the wallet and the benefits will be hard, if not impossible, to see. State Senator Doug Ericksen is the Republican chair of the Energy committee. He questions whether Washington should even try to meet the 1990 carbon emission levels target. That's because about 75-percent of Washington's energy comes from hydropower which doesn't have a carbon footprint.
Doug Ericksen: "I mean if you compare us to Indiana or Ohio which are heavy coal states, compared to us being a heavy hydro state, we shouldn't penalize ourselves because of our hydroelectricity."
This is where the art of persuasion comes in. Richard Perloff is the author of a book called The Dynamics of Persuasion. He says the trick for Inslee is to appeal to the public's desire to the right or moral thing, but avoid coming off like a Jimmy Carter-esque moralist.
Richard Perloff: "If he can grab the moral agenda and actually talk in global terms then he doesn't seem like he's self-interested and he seems something of a – to use the Michelle Obama term – a knucklehead, but a very idealistic knucklehead and people say, you know, I like this guy."
Inslee's never been short on idealism. But he's traditionally made an economic argument for addressing climate change. Now it appears he's ready to take a page from Perloff's book. The governor told me recently that he's prepared to make the moral case for capping carbon emissions.

WiMedia's day in the sun: CES 2008?
0 comments post a comment
The series we're running this week on UWB technology has attracted a great deal of attention to say the least.
Testing system-level products based on silicon that implements new technologies such as UWB is important to both end users and design engineers who might be planning a system-level product.
As has been pointed out by several WiMedia people, there is nothing new about a technology stumbling a bit when it starts taking its first steps. The discipline and profession of engineering was created to solve technology problems and push the limits of existing technology.
Whether it is the process of perfecting an arrow that flies straight and true tens of thousands of years ago or taking the next step in wireless communicationit all takes time.
Apparently, the tests that octoScope performed in November took place at an awkward time for WiMedia people with Certified Wireless USB products. At least some of them have new generations of their chips that at least in part address some of the shortcomings octoScope's testing revealed.
But the system-level products based on these chips are scheduled to be launched in January at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. So they were not available for testing without taking the air out the product launches in January. (Not to mention the fact that a product set for launch in January is probably not ready until Dec. 31.)
All eyes in the world of wireless designers now turn to CES. Let's see what WiMedia companies have come up with that will amaze and amuse us.
And I should add that testing this new wave of products is a project that both octoScope and WirelessNetDesignline welcome.
Competition and "letting the market decide" is important to achieving the best possible technologies and products. We should also remember that competition and market decisions are best based on facts, not PowerPoint presentations.

Long before it was a healthful trend, Gram Burns used fat-free buttermilk to replace sour cream in many of her recipes. Rich, moist banana bread continues to be a family favorite.
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour 1 large or 2 small loaf pans. Combine flour, baking
soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add
eggs, VANILLA EXTRACT, and BAKING SPICE. Beat well. Blend in buttermilk, then add mashed
bananas and flour mixture, stirring just until batter is smooth. Stir in nuts, raisins,
or chocolate chips by hand. Pour into loaf pan. Cook on center rack in preheated oven
until done1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes. When done, the loaf will have risen, be golden
brown, and no gooiness will be visible inside the cracks on the top of the loaf. If using
small loaf pans, bake at 375° for 40-50 minutes.
