Received November 29, 1999; revised December 21, 1999; accepted December 23, 1999. From the Mental Health Clinical Research Center, University of Iowa College of Medicine, Iowa City. Address correspondence to Dr. Nopoulos, University of Iowa College of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry, 1-180 Medical Education Building, Iowa City, IA 52242; e-mail: email@example.com
Enlarged cavum septi pellucidi (CSP) is a neurodevelopmental anomaly that has been associated with schizophrenia. This study was designed to evaluate, in patients with schizophrenia, the relationship between the severity of this anomaly and measures of symptom and cognitive skills. Three groups were used: patients with large CSP (n=14), patients without large CSP (n=14), and healthy control subjects (n=14). In patients with large CSP, a significant, inverse relationship was found between size of CSP and measures of cognitive deficit. Thus, the greater the size of the anomaly, the greater the cognitive deficit. No relationship was found between severity of CSP and symptom measures.
Patients with schizophrenia have been documented to have significant abnormalities in midline brain regions such as the corpus callosum,1,2 septum pellucidum,3—5 and cerebellar vermis.6—8 With regard to the septum pellucidum, several studies (including several from our group) have documented that patients with schizophrenia have an increased rate of enlarged cavum septi pellucidi (CSP) compared with healthy control groups.3—5,9—14
However, only one study to date has evaluated the relationship between enlarged CSP and symptoms in patients with schizophrenia,5 and no study has evaluated the relationship between enlarged CSP and cognitive function. Enlarged CSP has been associated with cognitive dysfunction in heterogeneous pediatric groups showing neurologic abnormalities, mental retardation, and developmental delay.15—19 In addition, a study by Renier et al.20 showed that children with Apert's syndrome (acrocephalosyndactyly) had a variety of brain abnormalities such as ventricular enlargement, corpus callosum dysgenesis, and septum pellucidum abnormalities. However, only the septum abnormalities showed a relationship with cognitive dysfunction.
The current study was designed to evaluate the clinical correlates of enlarged CSP in patients with schizophrenia. On the basis of findings in other neurodevelopmental syndromes, we hypothesized that cognitive dysfunction would be related to the presence of and/or severity of enlarged CSP.
Patients and control subjects with and without enlarged CSP were identified from a pool of participants who were consecutive admissions to the University of Iowa Mental Health Clinical Research Center and/or participated in a brain imaging protocol. A previous study on the incidence of enlarged CSP and its relationship to brain morphology was conducted on patients and controls who were scanned through late 1995.9 The pool of subjects (patients and control subjects) used for the current study began with subjects who were admitted (or participated as controls) from October 1995 through March 1998. Each scan was rated for size of CSP as described below. Each patient was diagnosed as having schizophrenia based on either DSM-III-R or DSM-IV criteria and a structured interview, the Comprehensive Assessment of Symptoms and History (CASH).21
Fourteen patients were identified as having an enlarged CSP as defined below. These 14 patients were then matched on age and gender to 14 schizophrenia patients who did not have enlarged CSP and 14 healthy control subjects who did not have enlarged CSP.
The control group consisted of healthy volunteers who were recruited from the community through newspaper advertising. Each control subject was evaluated with an abbreviated version of the CASH and was excluded if there was any personal history of psychiatric illness or family history of schizophrenia. Patients or control subjects were excluded if they had a lifetime history of serious head trauma, neurological illness, serious medical or surgical illness, or recent, heavy psychoactive drug use or abuse. After complete description of the study to the subjects, written informed consent was obtained.
Clinical measures such as age at onset and duration of illness were obtained from the CASH. The Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms (SAPS)22 and the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS)23 are embedded in the current section of the CASH, where the most severe level of symptoms during the previous month is recorded. Symptom items from the SANS and SAPS were grouped to represent three symptom dimensions: positive, negative, and disorganized.
Cognitive assessment was performed with a comprehensive battery designed to test a wide variety of functions. The entire battery is administered to patients when they are deemed clinically stable. This is done typically while patients are on their current medication regimen and prior to a 3-week medication washout. However, if the patient is admitted with no neuroleptic exposure, the testing is done prior to medication treatment. For the current study, general measures of overall cognitive function, verbal ability, and nonverbal ability were assessed. The measures used were the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale—Revised Full Scale IQ (FSIQ), Performance IQ (PIQ) and Verbal IQ (VIQ).24
MR scans were obtained with a T1-weighted three-dimensional SPGR sequence on a 1.5-tesla GE Signa Scanner (TE=5, TR=24, flip angle=40, NEX=2, FOV=26, matrix=256×192) using the coronal plane, yielding 124 contiguous slices 1.5 mm thick.
All postacquisition processing was done by using a locally developed family of software called BRAINS. Details of the image analysis are published elsewhere.25—27 The MR data were converted to a three-dimensional data set. The brains were then resampled in 1-mm slices. The resampled slices were then visualized in multiple planes, simultaneously. This allowed for a thorough, millimeter-by-millimeter inspection of the entire brain in all three orientations (coronal, sagittal, and axial).
Brains were identified by a number only. Thus the rater (A.K.) was blind to diagnosis, sex, or age of the subject. The method for the present study entailed a quantitative approach, measuring the size of the cavum by its appearance in consecutive coronal 1-mm slices: a rating of 1 represents a cavum seen in only one coronal slice, a rating of 2 represents a cavum seen in two consecutive coronal slices, and so on. Because the images are 1 mm without gaps, the rating is then a reflection of the actual anterior-to-posterior length of the cavum, although partial voluming renders this an approximation only. For example, a CSP with a rating of 5 would be approximately 5 mm long.
Reliability for rating the CSP was established on a separate sample of 50 brains. Percentage agreement for two raters (A.K. and P.N.) was high, at 90%, and for those ratings on which the two raters disagreed, the difference was never by more than one point.
A small CSP is common in a large proportion of healthy control subjects and is therefore considered to be a "normal variant."4,28 Determination of how large a CSP must be in order to reflect pathology is not known exactly, although it is clear that an overly conservative estimate may erroneously include CSP that are in the upper range of the normal variant. The best estimate of size of normal-variant cavum is approximately 1—4 mm.28—31 To allow some room for partial volume effects and to eliminate "borderline" CSP, we defined enlargement as CSP length greater than 6 mm. All ratings were then collapsed into two groups: those that had CSP enlargement (rating of greater than 6) and those that did not (ratings of 0 to 6).
The group of patients with "large" CSP consisted of six subjects with a CSP of size 7, two with CSP size 8, two with CSP size 10, one with CSP size 18, and the remaining three subjects, who had complete nonfusion of the septal leaflets. The latter condition is termed a combined cavum septi pellucidi and cavum vergae. The CSP sizes for these three patients were documented as measuring, respectively, 45, 46, and 59 consecutive slices. By definition, the patient group without large CSP and the control group had CSP ratings of 0 to 6. See F1 for examples of small and large CSP.
To compare clinical data between the two patient groups, paired t-tests were used (two-tailed). To evaluate the relationship between size of CSP and various clinical measures, Spearman's correlations were calculated. Nonparametric tests were used because the size of CSP was not normally distributed and the use of nonparametric tests would be resistant to the influences of outliers.
Patient and control sample demographics are shown in t1. The parental socioeconomic status for the patients with large CSP was lower than that of the patients without large CSP and control subjects. However, this was not statistically significant between any of the groups. The two patient groups were similar in age at onset and duration of illness. The patient group with large CSP comprised 7 first-episode patients (defined as first psychiatric hospitalization) and 7 with chronic illness. The patient group without large CSP had fewer first-episode patients (n=4) and more with chronic illness (n=10).
Symptom and cognitive data comparisons between the three groups are shown in t1. Scores on the three cognitive measures were not significantly different between the patients with large CSP and the patients without large CSP. Scores on all three cognitive measures were significantly higher for the control subjects compared with either patient group. The symptom data show that patients with large CSP had somewhat more severe pathology in all three domains (positive, negative, and disorganized symptoms); however, this did not reach statistical significance.
The results of the correlation analyses are shown in t2. For patients with large CSP, there was a significant negative correlation between size of CSP and multiple measures of cognitive functioning, including FSIQ, PIQ, and VIQ. Thus, the larger the CSP or the more severe the anomaly, the greater the cognitive impairment (see F2). This relationship between size of CSP and cognition was not present in the group of patients without large CSP. There were no significant correlations between size of CSP and symptom measures in either patient group.
Several studies have already established that enlarged CSP is associated with schizophrenia and may be considered a marker for cerebral maldevelopment.3—5,10—13 The current study extends these findings by showing that not only is the presence of this anomaly associated with the illness, but there is a direct relationship between severity of this anomaly and cognitive function. That is, the larger the anomaly, the greater the cognitive dysfunction. Moreover, the relationship was not specific to any particular type of cognitive skill, but instead was related to global disturbances of cognitive functions: the inverse correlations between size of CSP and cognitive function were significant for full scale, verbal, and nonverbal IQ. This suggests not only that enlarged CSP is a marker for cerebral maldevelopment, but also that the larger the anomaly, the greater the functional deficit, likely reflecting a greater degree of neurodevelopmental aberration.
Enlarged CSP is not a finding specific to schizophrenia. Several other developmental syndromes, such as fetal alcohol syndrome,32 Sotos syndrome,33 and Apert's syndrome,20 have documented increased rates of enlarged CSP. Nor is the association between enlarged CSP and cognitive dysfunction specific to schizophrenia. As mentioned above, a study of Apert's syndrome by Renier et al.20 found that although brain abnormalities such as enlarged ventricles and corpus callosum dysgenesis were often present in these patients, only the septum pellucidum abnormalities were correlated with cognitive dysfunction (lower IQ). Studies by Bodensteiner and colleagues16—19 have repeatedly documented the association with large CSP and a broad range of developmental problems, including mental retardation, developmental delay, seizures, macro/microcephaly, and others. Their work clearly indicates that an enlarged CSP is an important marker for increased risk of disturbed brain development.
By what mechanism could a large CSP underlie global deficits in cognition? The septum pellucidum is part of the limbic system and plays an important role in the linkage between the hypothalamus, hippocampus, amygdala, habenula, and brainstem reticular formation.19,34 It is quite unlikely that a specific disturbance of a localized structure such as this would lead to such widespread functional deficit. More likely is that the developmental process by which the septum pellucidum is formed and matures may reflect the pathoetiology for widespread brain disturbance. Very early in development, the septum pellucidum is solid, then it cleaves to form a fluid-filled cavity along its length (the cavum septi pellucidi). In normal fetal development, these two leaflets fuse back together near the time of birth. Although the details of this process are not well studied, it appears that fusion of the two leaflets depends on a variety of other surrounding structures developing normally—namely, medial temporal structures such as the hippocampus and midline structures such as the corpus callosum, as well as the cerebral hemispheres.28 Other midline structures such as the thalamus may also play a role. Therefore, a disturbance of any or all of the possible surrounding structures may lead to an enlarged CSP. Thus, although the septum pellucidum is a limbic structure, the fusion of the septal leaflets requires normal development of a variety of other brain regions. If these other regions are also abnormally developed, more widespread functional deficit may be expected when the leaflets of the septum fail to fuse properly.
Of interest is the lack of correlation between symptom measures and size of CSP, especially in light of the relationship between CSP and cognitive function. Kwon et al.5 also found no relationship between measures of CSP and symptom ratings on the SANS and SAPS. This is also consistent with recent findings from our lab in another midline brain region, the cerebellar vermis.8 This study found that cerebellar vermis area (in particular, the anterior lobe) was decreased in male patients with schizophrenia compared with control subjects. Moreover, this area decrement was positively correlated with cognitive function but had no relationship to symptom measures. Taken together, these two studies5,8suggest that the pathophysiologies of symptoms and cognition may differ in their relationship to brain morphology.
It is important to emphasize that enlarged CSP is a relatively uncommon finding in schizophrenia. Although patients with schizophrenia have an increased incidence of this brain anomaly compared with healthy control subjects, it is present in only 10% to 30% of patients.3,5 Therefore, it is not possible to generalize these findings to all patients with the disorder. Nor is it possible to speculate that cognitive deficits of schizophrenia are mediated by neurodevelopmental anomalies such as enlarged CSP. Clearly, most patients with schizophrenia do not have enlarged CSP, but suffer from significant cognitive deficit nonetheless. Given that enlarged CSP and its association with cognitive deficits are found in many other developmental syndromes and are not specific to schizophrenia, the findings of this study simply highlight the functional significance of this brain anomaly in the context of yet another neurodevelopmental syndrome. Further investigation into the pathology of early brain development should continue to provide clues to the pathophysiology of this devastating illness.

It is very dificult to find very good preschools in the area. I thought this was the best. I like to be involved with my child's class and her progress. This school has an open door policy that has encouraged my involvement. No school is perfect, therefore as parents if there needs to be change we must make it happen by being involved. I have seen continued growth with my daughter in this school.
Bad School. The Teachers are rude and don't supervise the children. The director is so disorganized . I had to wait 3 years for placement. Think twice before you put your child in here, consider Educare or Park Place daycare
This is a very good daycare. I am a teacher also (middle school) and two of my children go to this center and I am very impressed with how much they are learning. My children's teachers are just great and the director and wonderful. They all have open-door policy.

I've been down this list many times, Drakkenfyre. One "OMG F*!# FACEBOOK" event was generated by users' Facebook ID number accidentally leaking to app companies - the Facebook ID number being a random string if digits that only Facebook uses. Almost every time these freak-outs are blown out of proportion by people like you. I'm awfully fucking tired of it, to be honest.
And who are you referring to by "both of them"? I was referring to Mark Zuckerberg. He said it when he was a *teenager* back when nobody even knew about *MySpace*. Do you hold yourself to these standards? Are you an evil shitbag for life because you got upset once back when you were hormonal and confused and barely out of high school?

Cool Pets! Reptiles… lizards, snakes, turtles and tortoises
Cool Pets! Reptiles… the Fascinating World of Lizards, Snakes, and Turtles
The sighting of a reptile captures everyone's attention! These are the most bizarre and curious of all the land dwelling creatures, and also some of the most adorable of the aquatic creatures. Like other terrestrial animals they evolved from creatures of the sea, but these animals are certainly some of the most provocative.
Reptiles, just like their aquatic ancestors, are cold-blooded animals. But unlike the familiar warm-blooded pets such as dogs, cats and other mammals, reptiles lack any sort of furry cover. Rather they are sheathed in scales, or bony plating known as scutes. Although reptiles lack that cozy, huggable appeal of a fuzzy soft covering they are fascinating to look at and intriguing in habit. They are exceptional animals and make very cool pets!
Cool Animals Known as Reptiles
Incredibly, there are over 8,000 reptile species in the world! These are extremely ancient creatures, and have been a part of many culture's folklore throughout history. This large group is divided into four classified orders.
- Turtles, of the order Chelonia, are the most aquatic and are also the oldest living reptiles, existing nearly unchanged since the Triassic period.
- Lizards and Snakes are placed in the large Squamata order, and all are terrestrial.
- The very large, carnivorous reptiles found in tropical and subtropical swamps are placed in the order Crocodilia that includes alligators, caimans, crocodiles, and gavials. The 'ruling reptiles' of the great reptilian subclass Archosauria is also part of the Crocodilia order, and includes the popular, but extinct dinosaurs.
- The tuataras from New Zealand are in the order Sphenodontia with just 2 species.
Reptiles have a vital role in the natural world. They are an important part of the food chain both as predator and as prey. Predatory reptiles eat various species of rodents and insects, yet in turn, some mammals as well as birds of prey will eat some reptiles. Both sides of the equation help to keep animal populations in balance.
Cool People that Love Reptiles
All pet lovers tend to be very passionate about animals, and that's equally true for reptile lovers. Reptile lovers repeatedly prove to be ardent enthusiasts for these unusual creatures. Also as is true to all animal lovers, these people also understand and care about the passions of their fellow reptile keepers. The dedication these fascinating creatures inspire is best illustrated by an amazing story that unfolded just a couple weeks ago.
At the recent Reptile Super Show, held on November 2nd and 3rd in San Diego, California, the herptile community came together to help an aspiring 13-year-old boy named Zayd Sheck realized his dream of owning a beautiful boa constrictor.
The United States Association of Reptile Keepers (USARK) reported that Zayd "…came to the USARK booth to hand over a rosy boa he found in the lobby (misplaced in container by an attendee after purchase). After speaking with Zayd's mother, we found out that Zayd has been to many reptile shows this year following one certain boa constrictor bred by SoCal Constrictors and had been saving his money to buy the boa. He had saved enough for the snake but not enough to buy a cage, so he bought two raffle tickets for a snake kit at our booth and would be able to take the snake home if he won the kit."
Well Zayd did not win the snake kit in the raffle, so a wonderful USARK volunteer spoke with the breeders of the snake, relaying Zayd's story. Together they devised a plan "…to guarantee Zayd had an incredible day!" After the raffle USARK paged Zayd, asking him to come to their booth. When he arrived they presented with the boa from SoCal Constrictors that he had been eyeing for months, along with a ReptiHabitat Snake Kit from Zoo Med. The herptile community extended a great gift to this aspiring reptile keeper. Zayd and his mother were overwhelmed with appreciation, "… Zayd's mom had tears in her eyes and hugged nearly everyone in the room"!
Benefits of Reptile Keeping
For enthusiastic reptile lovers, learning about these animals and keeping them as pets is an exciting adventure in and of itself. But reptile keepers, as is true of all pet lovers, are passionate people with a profound respect for animals. Their strong compassion lends a deep concern when any Animal Cause comes up.
The ultimate reward for both the animal world and humanity is people equipped with knowledge and the ability to help maintain and even breed these wonderful animals. Reptile lovers make it possible to save many endangered species from extinction.
Find the Best Reptile Pets
It's exciting to learn what great pets reptiles make. They come in a variety of shapes, patterns, colors, and habits. Keeping them as pets is a fascinating hobby, and they have many advantages over other types of pets. They are generally quiet, clean, odorless, and non-demanding. Many require very little space, are low maintenance, and yet are fascinating to observe.
The trick when picking out your pet is to match the reptile that best fits into your lifestyle and home environment. See pictures and find great information for all sorts of Reptiles on Animal-World. A broad selection of Snakes, Lizards, turtles and tortoises will make good pets.
Join the Herp Community
You can follow in the footsteps of Zayd and attend multiple reptile shows, expos, and special reptile events. There are so many dedicated people in the herptile community that it's easy to get involved. All across the country there are numerous clubs and organizations too.
One of my personal favorite organizations is the United States Association of Reptile Keepers (USARK). In their own words, they are dedicated to the "…science, education and conservation" of these fascinating creatures. Join their mailing list and you will receive details about many upcoming events. Another great online resource for shows and expos is the Reptile Shows & Events on Reptile Channel. Just be warned, once you start getting involved you may very well get hooked, and be a reptile lover for life!

Animal-World's Featured Pet of the Week: The Emperor Scorpion
June 24, 2013 by Jasmine
Filed under All Posts, Featured Pets, Reptiles
Animal-World's Featured Pet for this week is: The Emperor Scorpion!
Are you a spider lover? Are you fascinated by arachnids in general? If you want to keep a unique arthropod for a pet, the Emperor Scorpion might be just what you are looking for! I would say that keeping these types of pets is either a love it or hate it type of situation. People who love them often keep several different types and make a hard-core hobby out of it. People who are terrified of them often don't even want to go in a house that they know has these critters in them!
The Emperor Scorpion Pandinus imperator is a great choice for people just being introduced to keeping arthropods. They can be quite tame and are easy to care for. Scorpions don't make a lot of noise, have very little odor, and are resistant to illness and disease. Because of their calm nature they can usually be held without fear of being stung. If they do sting, it usually isn't dangerous and only causes localized pain for a short period of time. For an arachnid, the Emperor Scorpion can live a fairly long lifespan of 8 years. This scorpion also goes by the names of the African Emperor Scorpion and the Black Emperor Scorpion. It is the best known scorpion in the world.
The natural habitat of this scorpion is in West Africa. They can be found in many of the African sovereign states, including the Ivory Coast, Guinea, Nigeria, the Congo, Ghana, Liberia, Togo, and several others. Most often they live in forests with a fair amount of moisture. In 1842 it was described by C.L. Koch. In 1876 it was put into its own genus by Tamerlan Thorell. Right now it is not considered to be endangered, however it is listed as threatened on the CITES II species list. This is mainly due to a decrease in the wild populations because of over collection.
Emperor Scorpions are quite impressive looking. Being all black and reaching up to 8 inches in length, they can appear formidable! This is probably why they have gained such appreciation and are used in movies as a scare tactic. But despite their appearance, they are not as scary as they first seem. They can be held, but this should be done carefully. If scared or stressed they may pince, which can be quite painful, especially from a large adult! It is often better to just look at and watch scorpions rather than make a habit out of holding them.
To properly prepare for a scorpion, you will want to acquire a terrarium. This can be anywhere from 2.5 to 15 gallons depending on how many scorpions you want to keep. Although most scorpions are solitary creatures, Emperor Scorpions can be kept in groups. You will want to make sure there are enough areas and hiding spaces so that each scorpion has a place it can call its own. In the wild they are burrowers and definitely appreciate deep, moist substrates such as peat moss, damp sand, and cypress mulch. Their environment should be kept humid to keep them in good health. A humidity level of 75 to 80% and a temperature of 75 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit is optimal.
Feeding Emperor Scorpions is easy and simple. As adults they primarily eat insects such as crickets and grasshoppers. Occasionally they might enjoy a mouse. Offer them live insects every day and a mouse a couple times a month. Make sure to remove any uneaten prey within a day. This is to keep them from decaying and attracting parasites or growing mold. Make sure to keep a large, shallow water dish in their terrarium as well.
Breeding these scorpions can be easy. If you keep their environment at a suitable temperature and humidity level, and they are healthy and feel comfortable, they will often breed on their own accord. After mating, the mother will gestate the young for about 7 months. The babies are born alive and immediately climb onto her back. The litters range anywhere from 15 to 40 young. The mother feeds them dead insects until they reach maturity, but the majority of them do not make it to maturity. If you want to succeed at breeding Emperor Scorpions, read more here on their Reproduction.
Emperor Scorpions rarely become ill if they are properly taken care of. One of the largest problems they run into is molting. Scorpions are covered by a hardened exoskeleton which they must shed every so often. Most scorpions molt 6 to 10 times in their lifetimes and these are by far the most dangerous times of their lives. Right before a molt, a scorpion often seems lazy and doesn't move much. For a few days after a molt, a scorpion is especially vulnerable to injury until their new exoskeleton hardens. Molting takes quite a bit of energy. If it is very difficult, a scorpion may have deformed limbs or die.
If you are interested in an Emperor Scorpion, they are quite readily available. You should have no problems finding one. More information on scorpions can be read here on Keeping Arachnids and Other Arthropods as Pets.

While the entire political structure of the US Government has wrangled numbingly on over the inadequacy of its $14 trillion debt-ceiling, little attention is being paid to the fact that America's number one problem is still jobs, jobs, jobs. Contrary to universally believed recovery expectations, the problem is recently growing. June numbers tell us that the current 58% employed population is actually below the level of two years ago. Well over 20 million of us need a job, or a better-paying one.
Jobs are not just another four-letter statistical word. Nor are jobs a mantle to be worn by politicians who are uniformly powerless to create them. Instead, jobs are the lifeblood of all developed societies. Rather than merely an additive, each job in a capitalist society is a powerful economic multiplier. Sadly, because the world's leading jobs-engine has been sputtering for almost three years and its current outlook is still soft, the volume of per capita global business transactions may actually be shrinking.
It's about the property
Other than sworn dedication to the Jobs-Cause by politicians, what must happen that will prime the complex US economic pump? There seems to be a fairly simple answer: the heavy, overhanging inventory of unsold, repossessed, mortgaged-up residential housing must go away in order to unlock consumption and job creation… a classic chicken-and-egg dilemma. It will happen in due course, but can the gaggle of global, debt-riddled societies that depend on its relief wait for it to unwind? We think there are two likely answers: (1) No, they can't wait. The recession among world trading partners will compound, forcing another round of business (jobs) cutbacks, or (2) Yes, they can wait, but the disposal of unsold debt-ridden housing should be accelerated, via (more) aggressive mortgage write-downs and perhaps drastic means, such as condemnation and destruction of ruined and mostly-ruined buildings.
QE3 anyone?
IF, there is a market Armageddon, or something that appears headed in that direction for whatever reason, we assume that big daddy Ben Bernanke will once again become Money-Printer-in-Chief. Although the Fed's Open Markets Committee publishes concerns of some of its members about pending inflation, a new, general economic rescue operation (QE3) would logically take place, despite its twin, negative side effects: (1) further devaluation of the US Dollar and (2) continued commodity price inflation. Actually, a moderate round of US inflation would not be unintended. The Fed recognizes that recent circumstances have properly turned its normal garden-tending job… killing off the sprouting weeds of inflation… into a hairy DeflationBusters role. The country could surely use a horse-dose injection of housing price inflation in order to reverse the persistent tidal wave of underwater mortgages. Now would not be too soon. But the Fed is understandably circumspect about starting another dollar-printing exercise, probably because its recent QE and QE2 periods seem to have jolted the US stock market, but little else… not bank lending, and certainly not job creation. In fact, not even Wall Street jobs are safe; a fresh round of layoffs in that sector was recently announced, despite The Street's generally robust earnings and a budding, bubble-looking investor appetite for tech IPOs that looks a lot like a mini-1999.

One man is dead after officials say he fell off of a truck bed.
September 21, 2007
Sumter County - - Heavy winds damaged a Sumter County home Friday afternoon.
It hit the Luster's home between Americus and Leslie around 4 PM.
Cornelius Luster says he was inside with his aunt when he noticed the storm. His family was just pulling into the driveway when winds destroyed the front porch and knocked items from their home into the woods.
"I started out the door, I made it far as the doorway there. I stood in the doorway. I saw chairs flying across the porch and I ducked back and I thought I heard glass cracking. So I ran and layed on the bedroom floor there," Luster say.
Fortunately no one was injured, though the storm scared Luster's 46 year old Aunt so bad she had to be taken to a nearby hospital.
The family can still live in the home, but they have some major repairs to do.

Sorry, I couldn't embed the article here for some reason.
I guess the voters forgot that the only reason the Raiders beat the Steelers in the AFCC game was because both Franco Harris and Rocky Bleier were injured and not able to play. A season in which both rushed for over 1,000 yards. 47% of the teams offense that year.
And you can bet had both Franco and Rocky been able to play or even just one of them, Steelers win their 5th Super Bowl in 6 years. That was the year that they had their greatest defense of all-time. 5 shut-outs.

Other splitscreen windows remind us of the existence of such characters as Hassan and Hastings, Chloe and Dalia, Dana and Prady, and Cole and Samir. People whose existences we are not reminded of: Walker and Taylor, who weren't in this episode at all. They could be anywhere, walking and tayling, respectively.
Cole and Kiefer talk to an NYPD officer, since the local cops get to the Teodore Hotel faster than CTU can. But Kiefer reminds the officer that they need to take Tarin alive. Another reason it's a good thing the assassination plot against Hassan didn't work, because in case you need to be reminded, Tarin was in the car. It's 3:00:00, and Cole joins Kiefer to go catch and question a man whose life he just saved eight hours ago.

text: Ok, hypothetical (this is actually for a class i'm taking). You have a db with 6 tables, each have several columns. The boss wants you to check for nulls in each table. How would you do it? Write a different statement for each table with a big long "WHERE fieldname IS NULL" for each column? Or is there an easier, simpler and quicker way to do it? Anyone have any bones to throw a newbie here?

Hearing America's laugh in my head as I reblog posts about the fifth season of Hetalia…

On December 25th, at midnight, everyone should go outside and sing the song, "Marukaite Chikyuu", SO THE YOU COULD HEAR THE WHOLE WORLD SINGING IT AND WOULD MAKE HISTORY! It would be epic,ONLY SING THE VERSION OF THE COUNTRY YOUR FROM! But they're all in Japanese. SO PLEASE LEARN THE SONG AND SING IT ON DECEMBER 25!
It's only a matter of time before Tumblr starts shipping Slenderman and Trenderman.
tumblrbot said: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE INANIMATE OBJECT?
The pen. The pen holds the power to change the world.
Insanity runs rampant in the world in which we live. The generations thrive upon the havoc it leaves in its wake, and they try to cover and mask it through blatant lies and half-assed guises that are products of the very thing they are trying to cache away. It's a dastardly and vicious circle upon which it continues to exponentially grow.
The worst part is, it exists in all of us. Every single soul possesses some degree of it, andanyamount of it from a single person can be enough to completely shatter this careful reality that we've come to know. Even the French have words that describe it."L'appel du vide"— "The call of the void". That urge to jump from heights that you know will kill you.THATis what Insanity is. The voice inside of you that is a masochist, arsonist, or genocidal maniac — thethingthat provokes your inner evil, that true sickening desire to do harm or wreak havoc upon the world for no apparent reason. This is what exists in us all.
However, there is one counter to Insanity. And it, much akin to the aforementioned, also exists in every soul. It is Bravery. Bravery. Bravery, Bravery, Bravery. A seven-letter word with so, so many meanings. Some define it as actions that are heroic in nature — of being a great hero or heroine. Others define it as the will to do anything in spite of the fear that you may have of doing it.
I, however, prefer to define it more simplistically. I believe that Bravery is simply the opposite of Insanity. Where Insanity conjures chaos, Bravery deals forth order. Where Insanity wishes to be quick to react, Bravery is calming and patient to wait for the correct moment. Where Insanity is, Bravery is theopposite. Bravery too, exists in all of us, albeit in minuscule amounts in this day and age.
And it is because of all of the those things that Braveryisandisn'tthat I can tell you that absolutely nothing save for good can come of it.
For it is Bravery that compels us to stand up for what we believe in, even in the circumstances of complete and utter obliteration. It is Bravery that drives us to be innovative in the face of complacency and indifference. It isBraverythat guards us against those whom wield Insanity in their arsenal. To be able to stand against Insanity's blatant disregard of Human Rights, its commitment to genocide and slaughter, its harsh will to suppress and belittle the masses, and its indifference to irreparably alter the truth.
It was Bravery that has always saved the World. ItisBravery that continues to save the World. And it willalways beBravery, whether that of individuals or that of entire masses of people, that will save the World.Bravery. B — R — A — V — E — R — Y. That sole, seven-letter word that can save the World. So simple, yet undefinable. That concept, so vague, yet so completely understandable at the same time.
Humanity needs more people whom trust in Bravery, and not in Insanity. You are you, right now, and forever. You may "change", but you will always be the same — yourself. It's high-time that you embraced a little Bravery. Stand up to Insanity. Do. Not. Let. It. Win.
And only you can do it.

Your Review:
Start with a generous portion of health-focused motivation, stir in plenty of quick/easy recipes, then finish with a pinch of environmental awareness and, voila! You've got this reasonable introduction to shifting yourself towards a mostly plant-based diet. I found this book informative yet easy to read with practical tips for increasing your veggie intake, and clear explanations of how and why doing so could lead to better health. While it provided a reasonable discussion of the philosophical benefits of going vegan, it steers clear of using scare tactics and won't send the occasional omnivore on a gustatory guilt trip.

|You have peace of mind when you purchase an Infinite alarm. We 100% guarantee it against outside intereference caused by electrical or radio interference. This includes, computers, mains power, CB radios, taxis, any interference. The FM transmitters within this system have high security data encryption making use of a rolling code facility which makes the chances of any other transmitters accidently using the frequency highly unlikely, in the ratio of 1,000 000s : 1.
Infinite Commpact Panel
1. So, what should I do to fit this product?
As long as you have a 13 amp socket, no more wiring should be required. We supply a spur to power the control panel, this can be fitted next to the 13a socket by a suitably qualified person. The programming is carried out by menu, using easy to understand "yes or no" answers.
2. I have pets - should I use this product?
For pets that weigh 50lbs or less, you can fit INF-PET detectors, which your pet will not set off.
For pets that weigh over 50lbs, connect magnetic contacts in order to protect your perimeter. In the mean-time, your pet can live inside.
If you have a big window, and many openings, try fitting magnetic contacts, wiring them to an Infinite Universal Transmitter. This could save money.
3. Is the control panel the right size for me?
This control panel has 32 zones wireless and 1 hardwired zone, and is of a large enough size that it is able to have one zone per wireless device. The panel has a hard-wired traditional zone, which can be used to fit additional detection accessories.
4. How big is the range of the signal between the control panel and wireless devices? Will police cars and ambulances set off the alarm with their transmitters?
Wireless alarm systems are much better now, compared with when they were launched. This Infinite burglar alarm is able to use 868Mhz FM in order to make clear, strong signals that have up to a two hundred metre range in free air, or around 90m with walls in the way. This is of course dependent on any other existing conditions. The signal strength indicator enables you to find out quickly and simply what these factors might be. The transmitters use high security data encryption with rolling code capabilities. These make the odds of other transmitters accidentally using the same frequency very low, a million-to-one shot.
5. Will the batteries last long?
The batteries we provide should last a total of around four years, if you subject them to continuous use. After they have worn out, we can provide you with replacements.

General Features
****Infinite commpact gsm, 4 pir + sounder
By S.M. on 08th Oct 2013
I've been playing around with this system and managed to get all the PIRs, the door sensor and the keypad setup fine. Managed walk tests etc So system is easy to setup from that perspective, but I've struggled with the remote access, which was the main reason for choosing this make/model. I too suffered from the low GSM signal (initially had strength 6, but dropped to 4 and can't get it back to 6) I did manage to control via Text until signal drop, so remote ok, hooked up phone line but setting up the various remote options isn't that clear in the manual, so not for the faint hearted. Will look to find a GSM arial (suggested in the manual as a way to address low GSM, but no where shows how to connect such an arial, nor can I see a 'plug' on the main board to connect one). Also support forums a bit sparse on this alarm, so not much info out there, plus mainly on the Prime, not the commpact. Would I recommend it? It's a nicely put together system, has good features, but the advanced features like remote need more info in the manual, plus there's not much info out on the web, so if like me, your not a professional it may take some time to fully set it up
****Infinite commpact gsm wireless 4 pir burglar alarm system plus wes sounder
By S.P. on 04th Jun 2013
I've installed the system a couple weeks ago and it's been working fine ever since. the only thing it's set up for is GSM Text, that comes through every time it goes off. it' fairly easy to install and takes more time to program. All the components are easy to link to controll panel. The only thing that lets it down is if you've got a low GSM/GPRS signal in the house a "MEDIA LOSS GPRS MODULE error will alway display on screen, and there's no way to take it off. The alarm works fine even with the message on. There's an option for a telephone line in case you don't get a signal at all. In any case just make sure you check the location before installing. A fair product overall.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I was reading a Goldcapped (I think that's the title of the series) article on this site once, and as I was perusing the comments, I saw something interesting. Someone was complaining they were banned.
How? Why?
Well, they had taken the advice of Goldcapped and had become... goldcapped. So, they sent hundreds of thousands of gold to a few of their alts to make room for more gold.
A day latter - BANNED. The alts were accused of "gold buying", and he of "gold selling".
So, please, be careful what you wish for. I have been very fortunate in the AH, so I have tons of gold on my main (no where near capped, but I do have hundreds of thousands of gold), and any time I need to get something for my alt, I either send them just enough gold to get what they need (flying training, etc), or I buy it on the AH for them, then send them the stuff. Hoping that no one suspects anything out of me.

Embrace your beauty. ♥
(Sorry, I reposted this, because I wanted this to show up in the tags)
Let's go over this shall we?
Starting from the top right:
- "If you eat what you've always eaten, you'll weigh what you've always weighed." No; (I realize this is not a weight-loss blog, but I will not hesitate to educate about healthy eating) First off, love you body for what it is & all it can do. Secondly, in a healthy diet, (I, actually, learned this from Portia de Rossi's book 'Unbearable Lightness', I highly recommend it for everybody) you do not tell your body what to eat, when to eat, or how much to eat. You listen to your body & let it tell you what it wants, when it wants, & how much it wants (i.e. If you want potatoes, eat it, if you want a salad, eat it). So~ eat whatever you want, but only when you're hungry.
- "When you're struggling, imagine the outfits you'll wear." You can wear what ever you want to right now.
- "It may not be easy, but it will be worth it." Wrong; if you keep thinking like this it will never be enough. Learn to accept & love yourself & it will always be enough.
- "You never regret eating healthy, but you always regret eating unhealthy." This, however is true. But not in the way it was meant. If you "diet" or binge eat you will regret it. But if you listen to your body, you will never regret it.
It makes me nearly cry every time I see someone so beautiful & they can't see even one good thing about them. Why can't they recognize their own beauty? I just want you to see what I see.

Garlic French Fries
Twice-cooking these fries yields the tastiest results: The first round cooks the potatoes and removes some of the water and starch, while the second makes them nice and crisp. Prep and Cook Time: about 1 3/4 hours, plus at least 2 1/4 hours for chilling and cooling.
More From Sunset
Nutritional Information
- Calories: 222
- Calories from fat: 53%
- Protein: 3.2g
- Fat: 13g
- Saturated fat: 2.7g
- Carbohydrate: 25g
- Fiber: 2.1g
- Sodium: 23mg
- Cholesterol: 3.5mg
- About 2 lbs. (2 or 3 large) russet potatoes, peeled
- 3 to 3 1/2 qts. peanut or canola oil (see Notes)
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 3/4 cup dry, finely chopped parsley (see Notes)
- 2 teaspoons melted butter
- Salt
- 1. Fill a large bowl halfway with water. Cut potatoes into long slices about 1/4 in. thick, then cut in 1/4-in.-thick sticks, dropping them into water as cut. Chill at least 2 hours or overnight. Drain and pat very dry.
- 2. Pour about 3 in. of oil into an 8- to 10-qt. pot; bring to 325° over medium-high heat. With a slotted spoon, carefully lower a heaping spoonful of potatoes into oil. Cook, stirring occasionally to keep fries from sticking, until potatoes are tender to the bite and ends begin to turn golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Adjust heat as needed to maintain temperature. With a slotted spoon, transfer fries to a baking pan lined with paper towels. Allow oil to return to 325° and repeat with remaining potatoes, arranging them in a single layer (you'll need a second baking pan). Let cool completely, about 15 minutes. (At this point, you can wrap fries airtight and chill up to 1 day.)
- 3. Preheat oven to 200°. Set a rack in a rimmed pan and put in oven.
- 4. In a large bowl, combine garlic, parsley, and butter. Reheat oil in pot to 375°. Remove paper towels from underneath fries. With a slotted spoon, lower 2 spoonfuls of fries into oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp and deep golden, 2 to 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer fries to rack in oven and keep warm. Allow oil to return to 375°, and repeat with remaining potatoes.
- 5. Gently mix fries with parsley mixture. Season to taste with salt. Serve immediately.
- Note: Nutritional analysis is per 1-cup serving.
Though it's pricey, peanut oil creates exceptionally delicious fries. A deep-frying thermometer is essential for gauging oil temperature so that the potatoes cook evenly. We like the Taylor Classic Candy and Deep-Fry Analog Thermometer ($13; available at housewares and home improvement stores), which comes with a built-in pan clip. The parsley needs to be completely dry to coat the fries without getting them soggy; whirl sprigs in a salad spinner, then wring in paper towels. If you're making burgers along with the fries, finish the fries through step 2, then start on the burgers.
