Camille: Working with Precision
Camille is eight years old and in the second grade. She is knowledgeable, independent, and eager, especially when technology is involved. Camille also has Down's Syndrome. She began the year working on the computer almost daily for her classwork. But with a lack of hand/eye coordination and small-motor control, she often made mistakes while inputting information into the computer. Camille was not able to be as productive as she would like and, as a result, often became frustrated with herself.
We assembled a combination of assistive devices to make it easier for Camille to work productively. These include a two-button track ball and an IntelliKeys ® keyboard. The keyboard, large and brightly colored, can be programmed using specialized software. The software itself allows the user to "implant" a specific set of instructions onto the overlay. Each overlay acts somewhat like a touch-screen, wherein the user touches a picture or icon on a flat surface instead of hitting the keys on a keyboard. The user selects the placement, size, shape, and color of each button on the overlay. Then the user programs each button to perform a specific function, such as printing, cursor movement, or typing a specific letter, number, or phrase. There is no limit to the number of overlays one can create and their functions can be as general or specific as desired.
The combination of technologies helped Camille work more productively and with less stress. By year's end, she could duplicate most basic computer functions such as opening applications from the launcher and work independently on class assignments.
One hallmark of these technologies is that they can be adapted to meet a student's evolving needs. For example, as Camille grows and her academic needs change, new custom overlays can be created. Because each custom overlay is programmed to produce specific computer functions, these overlays can also be used to teach basic skills or processes such as editing texts or creating graphics to go with a story. In time, Camille may even be able to create her own custom overlays for special projects or presentations.

Getting Quicker Answers On The Presence Of PAD
- Volume 25 - Issue 11 - November 2012
- 3085 reads
- 1 comments
The statistics on peripheral arterial disease (PAD) are staggering. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that approximately 8 million people in the United States have PAD. This includes 12 to 20 percent of people over the age of 60. Accordingly, appropriate testing for this condition is essential.
BioMedix has developed PADnet, which offers an automated means of obtaining ankle-brachial index (ABI)/toe-brachial index (TBI) values and pulse volume recording (PVR) waveforms. This easy-to use, 10- to 20-minute test can help identify obstructive disease in patients and determine whether medical or surgical treatment is necessary, according to BioMedix.
BioMedix highlights PADnet's ease and timeliness, noting that one can send test results instantly to a vascular specialist for interpretation. Specialists can review results at their convenience from any secure Internet connection in the world. Not only does the system ensure both speed and error-free transmission, it does so while maintaining HIPAA compliance, explains the company.
Farshid Nejad, DPM, FACFAS, notes he has been using PADnet for approximately three years, adding that its usefulness, ease and consistency are advantages that help PADnet outshine similar devices.
"We were using another device but it was too cumbersome and time consuming so at times, we would refer out so we didn't tie up our exam rooms," explains Dr. Nejad. "We use PADnet more frequently than we did our previous device, yielding a win-win situation for the patient and our practice."
The device self-calibrates before each use and provides numerical and graphical readings, which the physician can easily and effectively communicate to the patient, adds Dr. Nejad, a Fellow of the American Professional Wound Care Association.
Not only can physicians easily communicate results to patients, PADnet helps facilitate patient adherence, allowing for routine testing with the system annually, notes Angela L. Drury, DPM, FACFAS. "I use PAD testing for all my diabetic patients, especially when evaluating them for the vascular component of comprehensive diabetic foot exam," explains Dr. Drury, who is in practice in Albuquerque, N.M. "I also use PADnet for any patient that is seeing me for foot care and is in the age group of risk for PAD."
According to Dr. Drury, PADnet allows her to incorporate the highest level of patient care and she emphasizes its importance when evaluating the vascular component of the comprehensive diabetic foot examination.
With the multitude of advantages using PADnet, Dr. Nejad notes it is a great asset to his practice. "PADnet is well worth the investment as we are doing more exams in less time. This makes the patient feel more at ease when the exam is short and sweet," explains Dr. Nejad. "Because the device requires less involvement from the operator, there is less user error and more consistent results."
Thanks to Dr. Drury and Dr. Nejad for sharing their experiences and reinforcing how easy and important it is to test for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the podiatric care setting with PADnet.
There are a couple of points in the article that we feel could benefit from some further clarification.
Though it is easy to use and intuitive, the PADnet system is not an "automated" test (it won't perform itself). The PADnet software provides a step-by-step testing sequence to guide the user through recording ankle-brachial index (ABI) values, toe-brachial index (TBI) values and pulse volume recording (PVR) waveforms. Recording oscillometry and air-cuff plethysmography are used to calculate ABI and PVR measurements via automated algorithms. The accessibility of the cuff-based PADnet testing method and user-friendly software helps reduce technician dependency and deliver more consistent results.
PADnet supports HIPAA compliance by providing data encryption and a secure means to transmit patient demographics and test data directly to an interpreting specialist. However, it is up to each individual practice to ensure it is maintaining and executing complete HIPAA compliance policies and procedures.
With approved physical signs and symptoms, PADnet tests meet reimbursement requirements. Typically, routine screening tests for PAD are not reimbursable. BioMedix makes finding patients with applicable risk factors and indications easier by supplying patient questionnaires and education materials with the system.
Thank you for being a part of the BioMedix collaborative care network and helping to find vascular disease sooner. We look forward to continuing to support the podiatric community as the front line of defense against the progression of PAD through earlier detection and coordinated care.Reply to this comment »

North America is a dynamic migration region, with the United States home to more immigrants than any other country in the world, the Mexico-U.S. corridor the globe's top migration corridor, and Canada a leading destination for migrants. Research collected here focuses on everything from visa policy and border management to immigrant integration, national identity, the demographics of immigrants in the region and their educational and workforce outcomes, and ways to more effectively use migration policy as a lever for national and regional competitiveness.
Between 1960 and 2012 the share of Canadians in the U.S. foreign-born population declined from 10 to 2 percent, while the actual number of Canadian immigrants has remained remarkably steady. Using the most up-to-date statistics, this profile examines the Canadian immigrant population by size, age, location, college education, and more.
Central American migrants have long hopped freight trains known as "La Bestia," or the beast, to get through Mexico en route to the United States. While Mexico has been accused of turning a blind eye to this traffic, U.S. outcry over the surge of unaccompanied child migrants has drawn new attention to the use of the trains. This article highlights the journey aboard the trains, the dangers faced by migrants, and responses by the Mexican government and others.
Find relevant MPI resources on the child migration crisis—from research, articles, and public briefings that analyze the trends and policy developments surrounding the recent uptick in migration of unaccompanied minors to data on Central American immigrant populations and country profiles of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras—all in one place. Click here.
More than 1.1 million persons became legal permanent residents (LPRs) in the United States in 2008. Nearly two-thirds of new LPRs are immigrants with family ties in the United States, reports MPI's Jeanne Batalova in this updated look at the latest statistics on legal immigration.
In the 1920s, the Catholic Church in Mexico feared that mass emigration north caused the breakup of families and religious conversions. David Fitzgerald of the University of California, San Diego looks at how Church policy eventually became a voice for migrants' rights and how these policies have affected Mexican migration flows and Mexican government policies.
MPI's Muzaffar Chishti and Claire Bergeron report on a recent Supreme Court decision, hearings on comprehensive immigration reform, new worksite enforcement operation guidelines, and more.
The 4.5 million older immigrants residing in the United States in 2007 accounted for 12 percent of all senior citizens age 65 and older. MPI's Aaron Terrazas examines the socioeconomic characteristics, where they live, their health and disability status, and their sources of income.
Just a fraction of all U.S. employers use E-Verify, a federal system that checks potential employees' immigration status and their eligibility to work. MPI's Marc Rosenblum explores E-Verify's history, how it works, and the arguments for and against making it mandatory.
This pocket guide compiles some of the most credible, accessible, and user-friendly government and non-governmental data sources pertaining to U.S. and international migration. The guide also includes additional links to relevant organizations, programs, research, and deliverables, along with a glossary of frequently used immigration terms.
This report provides an overview of the citizenship test redesign process, reviews limited data on applicant test performance during pilot testing, and provides policy recommendations for moving forward.
This report provides a global look at circular migration experiences, depicts various governments' attempts at creating circular migration, evaluates the economic costs and benefits of circular migration for sending and receiving countries, identifies components of effective bilateral agreements, and reviews outcomes governments might realistically expect from their circular migration policies.
This report views Nevada's significant population growth between 1990 and 2006 through an immigration and immigrant integration lens—it outlines the reasons that make Nevada's case unique and worthy of study; and analyzes the educational challenges the state will confront as it responds to rapid demographic change.
This brief takes a look at hometown associations (HTAs)—immigrant organizations based on a common hometown—and their often overlooked function as integration intermediaries in their country of destination.
More than half of all the states in the world, countries of immigration as well as emigration, now tolerate some form or element of dual citizenship. This report goes beyond statistical trends to the heart of these changes and how best to think through the policy answers.
Over 100 million migrants live in the more developed regions of the world, including nine million in Northern Europe, 22 million in Western Europe and 38 million in the United States. This report takes a closer look at the challenges of immigration for Western countries.
This report examines the large presence of unauthorized and mixed-status families, and the growing size of the second generation and its concerns within Los Angeles County and in California, drawing comparisons to broader national demographic trends and rationales for immigrant integration.

Good boots
posted 5 years ago
This product really depends on your dog. I have had no problems with these boots, but know of other folks who have had trouble.
From my experience, the boots are durable, and protect tender paws. The adjustable velcro works well and lasts. They can be somewhat expensive, so hopefully you can get them from a retailer who will take them back if you have sizing problems.
Pros: Work well, stay on
Cons: Some dogs just won't wear them

A sliver of good news on local home prices
Tuesday, August 30, 2011
Local real estate watchers agree the crummy Case-Shiller readings for the Twin Cities are related to the area's heavy load of bank-mediated sales, which have been weighing down the metro area's median sale prices. Distressed, or bank-mediated home sales such as short sales, accounted for about 38 percent of closed sales in the Twin Cities in June, said Herb Tousley, director real estate programs at the University of St. Thomas. A year ago they were 31 percent of sales.
Tousley called the change a "contributing factor" in the Twin Cities Case-Shiller drop, but not the whole explanation.
Tousley said he is concerned because he's seeing weakness in the local median sale price for "normal" or non-distressed home sales, too.
"We're going to be watching August very carefully," Tousley said.

It was a great fear realized, a terror attack unleashed on spectators attending a major American sporting event.
It has been written about in literature and made into harrowing movies (Black Sunday by Thomas Harris and The Sum of All Fears by Tom Clancy). It has been simulated and planned for with equal measures of intensity and dread since the Sept. 11 attacks. But the bombing at the 117th Boston Marathon Monday wasn't anything from fiction, film, or a drill. It was all too real, and so is the pain, anguish, sadness, and loss left in its wake.

Keeping alcohol out of the hands of minors means training for those who sell it.
Police say this time of year, when school is out for underage colligates or high schoolers, some attempt to buy alcohol.
So servers are getting the know how when it comes to spotting a fake ID or a suspicious customer.
Using their own licenses, prevention specialists from Community Partnership of the Ozarks held a class in Joplin on Tuesday and showed servers how to feel and see the difference between a valid license and a fake.
They recommend having black lights to check them in bars or at stores and a guide book that shows all states licenses.
Participants also learn when they are truly responsible and the potential consequences for them and their employer. Servers can face fines of up to $1,000 and be cited by police.
"It's beneficial to have employees come to this," says prevention specialist Erica Manahan. "Them checking and thwarting getting caught by the law selling to an underage is really beneficial for them so they don't get the fines, they don't get their license revoked."
The new Missouri license introduced in March could be a help to servers now that it's printed vertically for those under 21.

Translated from the Japanese by Allison Markin Powell
One Peace Books, October 2011

Originally published in Japan in 1939, this novella traces a day in the life of a brooding, introspective teenager. Schoolgirl is reminiscent of Catcher in the Rye, yet predated that novel by 12 years. Considered one of the most important figures in post-war Japanese literature, author Osamu Dazai has a cult following in Japan today.

Tonight could be labeled "and then you get pregnant again" because amidst all the apprehension of the impending birth, sleepless nights, and 3am diaper changes, our daughter gave us a glimpse in to the reason we decided to throw caution to the wind (or, rather, sperm to the unprotected vajajay) a few months ago in the hopes of creating another one. Tonight, as we read her story and kissed her good-night, she said to us, "Thank you, Mommy. Thank you, Mommy and Daddy." All on her own, no prompting, and no death threats.

Compared to last go-round, I've been amazingly calm. With my first pregnancy I called the doctor no less than 8 times for various "pains." I freaked out three times with false labor, thought my water broke once, called the hospital because I was SNORING TOO MUCH (I swear to god, it hurts to... Read more

Today we caught a glimpse into our youngest child's world. While a mother knows many things about the person growing inside of her, like his resting times, his active times, which body part is poking her ribs, the Dad only hears second hand, "He's moving!

There are times, that is, until I'm puking or swelling, failing diabetes tests or having contractions. Today, though, he had the chance to peek at his first... Read more

Anti-Gay Christian Right-Wing Activist Says 'There's No Proof' LGBT People Exist
September 18, 2011By Stephen D. Foster Jr.
Linda Harvey, the founder of Mission America, says that LGBT people don't exist. She made the comments during her weekend broadcast while she was attacking the Gay, Lesbian, And Straight Education Network.
Harvey was particularly perturbed by the GLSEN Sports Program which works towards "creating and maintaining an athletic and physical education climate that is based on the core principles of respect, safety and equal access for all students, teachers and coaches regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression."
Harvey believes there is no need for such a program because according to her, there is no proof that LGBT people exist.
Harvey: "There's one big fact that's not backed up. There is no proof that there's ever anything like a gay, lesbian or bisexual or transgendered child, or teen or human. One of the other things you're gonna see as I mentioned is a big campaign GLSEN's gonna roll out this year calling for 'respect,' respect! Not just for people, but for homosexual lifestyle. The PR campaign to hold up gay as a good thing: the lifestyle, not the person, because there are no such humans."
Mission America's major area of focus is homosexuality from a conservative Christian viewpoint, particularly as it relates to American youth. It also opposes the influence of pagan and feminist spirituality, and provides a range of apologetics for Christianity.
Linda Harvey is hateful and in denial. There are many LGBT people in the public eye who are living proof that gay people exist like Rachel Maddow, Barney Frank, and Ellen DeGeneres, just to name a few. If you are part of the LGBT community, feel free to contact Harvey and her organization to let them know that you exist.

Greengrass, who refused to cast known "stars" in the film, avoids sentimental clichés or overtly political messages. The ultimate effect is a brilliant tribute to a historical event.
"United 93" perfectly captures the mundane and, ultimately, devastating aspects of Sept. 11. Instead of focusing on cheesy human interest stories, Grenngrass smartly relies on observed "normal" details to gain the audience's attention and sympathies: A stewardess slips off her slippers before offering the morning drink cart to passengers, two old men trace their hiking trip in Yosemite National Park (Flight 93 was supposed to travel from Newark to San Francisco) and a woman fidgets with her Mp3 player.
Through these details, the viewer understands Greengrass's point: Terrorism is most threatening when it hinders our daily movements, making the everyday like riding a plane to a national park into something deadly.
Greengrass's portrayal of the four highjackers on Flight 93 is balanced. The actors found a fine balance between being frightening men and willing assasains, becoming nervous martyrs who were unsure of how, or when, to execute their attack.
The intensity of actors like Lewis Alsamari, who played highjacker Saeed Al Ghamdi, gave the terrorists a haunting dimension. Long gone are the Cold War days of one-note Russian bad guys. In today's world, a highjacker politely talks to fellow passengers and dresses in clothes from the Gap.
Greengrass's film is the first feature to deal with the events of Sept. 11. Unlike other war movies or historical films, the events of Sept. 11 do not lend themselves easily to the big screen.
Is it too soon to have a movie about the war on terror while it remains unresolved? Is the nature of the material too steeped in politics and cultural landmines to be effective, objective art? Greengrass, who also directed "Bloody Sunday" and "The Bourne Supremacy," handles the material with grace and dignity.
For me, the scariest part of "United 93" came when I forgot I was watching a movie based on real events.
One hour into the film, the second plane crashes into the World Trade Center's south tower. Greengrass shows the faces of air traffic controllers at the FAA headquarters.
People yell expletives as they watch the plane fly into the shining glass of the World Trade Center tower on CNN, and then turn silent, mouths agape in horror. Then noticed my mouth was open, too. I forgot how stunning that footage, which we all watched at school and in our homes for weeks after the attacks, really was.
The end of "United 93" may seem controversial to some. Greengrass paints the picture that certain passengers (like Todd Beamer, who famously yelled, "Let's roll") overtook the cockpit and purposefully crashed the plane to avoid hitting the terrorists target, the Capitol.
The final shot is of Flight 93 nose-diving into the green pastures of rural Pennsylvania. Then, the screen goes black.

My wife still thanks me by John from Houston on 06/01/2008. Trim: 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid Hybrid with CVT, Owned 6 years.
Pros: Love driving past gas stations! Best car I've owned.
Cons: The $6,000 battery gave out after 5 years. It's scary to think what will happen when it is out of warranty. I have a new one and hopefully it will be good for another 8 years. Gas mileage averages 40 mpg (if single, I would drive w/o a/c and hyper-inflate the tires.)
Overall review: We bought it more as a statement back in 2002 when gas prices were $1.28. It's fantastic now.

On Feb. 1, 2003, the space shuttle Columbia broke up during re-entry, killing all seven of its crew members.
On this date:
In 1790, the U.S. Supreme Court convened for the first time in New York. (However, since only three of the six justices were present, the court recessed until the next day.)
In 1861, Texas voted to leave the Union at a Secession Convention in Austin.
In 1862, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," a poem by Julia Ward Howe, was published in the Atlantic Monthly.
In 1922, in one of Hollywood's most enduring mysteries, movie director William Desmond Taylor was shot to death in his Los Angeles home; the killing has never been solved.
In 1943, one of America's most highly decorated military units, the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, made up almost exclusively of Japanese-Americans, was authorized.
In 1960, four black college students began a sit-in protest at a Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, N.C., where they'd been refused service.

power brick(pow´&r brik) (n.) Also referred to as a transformer, an element of the external power supply for a notebook and/or laptop computer, used in conjunction with a battery pack. Since notebook computers rely on low-voltage DC, they need a way to convert the AC from a power source into DC that can be safely used by the computer. The power brick takes the AC voltage and converts it to a DC voltage slightly higher than the battery (the slight elevation in voltage ensures that the battery stays fully charged). Batteries normally supply the safe DC voltage to the portable computer, but power bricks are intended for use in conjunction with or instead of a mobile device��s battery.
Note Well: Unlike power supplies and voltage regulators for desktop computers, those for portable computers do not conform to any industry standards, so power bricks are not necessarily interchangeable among portable devices.

In reply to your comment. I think the heart of cialis daily cost the issue is that businesses want to keep making money by developing products where you will have to buy more things from them in the future.
Sure, people can make money by selling you an electric car, but more people can make more money by selling you fuel, maintenance etc.
I think this is behind why the US Pharmaceutical companies keep turning drugs that alleviate chronic conditions instead of curing them.
They simply invest their money looking for drugs that help, instead of looking for cures.
Businesses want repeat customers.

Until you take energy out of the economic equation there will be people trying to sell you fuel.... even if that fuel is bad for the planet, or horrendously inefficient and unworkable like hydrogen.
In the meantime, write your car makers telling them that you will not purchase a vehicle unless it is a battery electric.

To be a leader implies you have followers and even though you may lead others, you probably follow a leader as well. Many who lead live in the middle space between leader and follower. Once you are a leader however, you may not think too much about being a follower. You may be thankful for the person who leads you and supports you in fulfilling your responsibility to lead others. Or you may experience frustration from a non-functional leader who is either not present or exerting so much control you have no freedom to lead. In either case, your experience defines what it means for you to be a follower and a leader.
Leaders need followers. If you look around and no one is following are you really a leader? Before you answer the question you have to know what following looks like. The basic definition of a follower is someone who follows. Following involves an act of the will. It is a choice. You may think you are the boss and I have to follow, but if I have to follow am I really following? I have seen some who have subordinates that are not followers, haven't you? To be honest, I have been a subordinate and not a follower. I am equally certain that I have had subordinates that have not been followers. Leaders have followers because they understand following.
Consider whether you are following your leader or not. If you are, why are you and if not, why not? This may provide insight into your followers and your leadership.

great breakfast,great view from our private balcony
3.2 on July 31, 2014
Functional and clean B&B which is better than a regular motel. Family orientated with a good breakfast and the staff was very friendly and informative. Neighborhood was not in the nicest section of town, but was a safe daytime walk to the Port Authority Transit Hudson (PATH) to NYC. Connection is to World Trade Center location (except weekends currently due to construction) Had a wonderful stay and would stay again.

I was very pleased with this small B and B that actually not only was about half the price of other hotels nearby, but also had all the amenities of the larger chain hotels and more. I stayed with my wife and daughter in the Suite which had a very comfortable large bed in the bedroom and a magnificent living room with a spectacular view of Manhattan from the balcony. We were there for 10 days in June and we couldn't have been happier anywhere else. Not only bas there a computer and printer in the room, but there was also free WIFI and free Internet. The breakfast was scrumptious and Keisha and Judy kept the place very clean and offered us great ideas on what to do in the Big Apple. And Lonnie even drove us to the train a couple of times in the morning when he was headed that way. However, it was only a 10 minute walk to the train, so when Lonnie didn't drop us off at the train it was a very quick and enjoyable walk in a very safe neighborhood. They had all the amenities of a 4 star hotel, and with the great price and all the information and service they gave us, I must say that we will be going back there next summer too. Thank you for making our vacation such a great trip.

had a very nice stay while visiting NYC the place was clean and the staff was helpful and nice good hot breakfast in the morning will recommend to friends and will be booking a visit for the fall,, the price is excellent
1.8 on June 27, 2014
I read the reviews and decided to stay here anyway because the price was cheap. I wasn't expecting the lap of luxury, but was disappointed nonetheless. There was a very bad smell in our room (we had the Queen) so instead of fully enjoying our night NYC, we were standing in line at a Walgreeens to buy Febreze and armload of candles to take back with us. It helped a little, but the smell was bad,and made my husband sick to his stomach. At breakfast. my husband found a hair on his empty plate and there was a crumb on mine. My husband hardly ate. I ate until I noti Ed the blueberries were moldly. I thought I knew what I was getting into when I booked this and that I could handle a little inconvenience, but my husband didn't want to stay the second night, so we had to find somewhere else to stay and didn't end up saving much money after all. We should have just stayed at a nice place in NYC for the two nights we ended up paying for two nights at the B&B and then another hotel. Also NYC is not as close as you think or want it to be from this B&B.
4.2 on June 17, 2014
Good evening, I slept two nights in the BandB and I appreciated my stay, in this suburb of New York, which I did not know. It is practical to be able to have a sleeping around in 45 minutes of the World Trade Center, in a reasonable price rate. Best regards. Laurent
3.6 on June 05, 2014
This was my 1st stay at a B&B. I would definitely come back. Upon arrival,I was somewhat put off by the outward appearance. I changed my outlook after entering and meeting the staff. The rooms were clean and well kept. The staff was friendly and very helpful suggesting ways to get from one point to another. The amenities offered (free movies and WiFi) were a nice touch. If I had to suggest improvements it would be to fix the shower. Overall the price was reasonable and my stay was very pleasant. Thumbs up!
2.8 on April 24, 2014
Needed a place to stay post holiday party for one night, had to book two nights. Not a great neighborhood. Uneven stair heights made for jarring climbs up and down to rooms. Rock hard beds, worn out towels. Bathroom needs deep clean, new grout around tub. Offered coffee mug with chip from kitchen attendant. Can't rate breakfast, didn't bother with it. Went to a bagel shop instead. Didn't bother staying second night either. Suited my purpose of place to crash after an all day gathering since we live 3 hours away. One plus was small balcony off room, could see NY skyline from one angle.
3.8 on February 11, 2014
I stayed in the King sized room on the bottom floor. The rooms were very nice and spacious, and in general very clean. It was more than I expected for the price and I would definitely stay there again.

After three weeks in Kansas, Missouri, Michigan ... Boston we arrived at the Jersey B&B. Everything was fine, especially the view from the nice little balcony and the friendly service (Thank you, Keisha!). Getting to Journal Square on foot is no problem, getting to Manhattan is easy and getting to Liberty Island from this side of the Hudson River is a recommendable option.

Moreover, it provides information as to what's happening in our schools to promote and encourage physical activity, as well as healthy eating habits through health education programs. Our guest, Dr. Delores Pluto from the State Department of Education, also touches on the move toward healthy foods being served as snacks and meals in breakfast and lunch programs.

Woodworker's Journal
Chris Marshall: If your saw has conventional pulleys, buy a link belt to replace the standard drive belt. It works wonders to remedy the exact problem you're having! Ironic as this may seem, I put one on a Powermatic contractor's saw years ago, and it took care of the "galloping" problem immediately. It was the best investment I ever made for that saw.
Tim Inman: I have two thoughts to share: I'd explore the effects of setting a spring tensioner on the motor. Keeping a constant pull on the belt tension will help prevent the harmonic vibrations you're experiencing. Something as simple as a screen door spring hooked up to pull against the motor would work for a test. It might even be the final solution! The best suggestion, though, would be to replace that old V-belt with a new "link" type. These belts are a little more expensive, but they eliminate the "wobbles" caused by old hard V-belts that are "out of round.
