Booze can now be sold at B.C. farmers markets
By The Canadian Press
VANCOUVER - Alcohol can now be sold at farmers markets in British Columbia, and pubs may accommodate minors.
New liquor laws allow alcohol manufacturers to apply to farmers markets to sell products.
Market associations then determine which producers are accepted, subject to approval by municipal bylaws.
Pubs and legions can apply to accommodate minors, who must be accompanied by an adult and can stay no later than 10 p.m.
The province says this change opens up new dining options for rural communities, where the number of family restaurants may be limited.
In January, the government endorsed 73 recommendations to change B.C.'s liquor laws, 17 of which have been carried out to date.

There's no better way to get into the Halloween spirit than by watching some scary movies. Check back each weekday in October for a new spooky movie recommendation, courtesy of George Wolf.
Disclaimer: We take no responsibility for nightmares you may have from watching these films.
>> Movies 1 – 5 | 6 – 10 | 11 – 15 | 16 – 20 | 21 – 25 | 26 – 31 <<
October 15th: The Thing (1982)
The Thing | 109 min | Rated: R
John Carpenter's remake of the 1951 SciFi flick The Thing from Another World is both reverent and barrier-breaking, losing a bit of the original's Cold War dread, but concocting a thoroughly spectacular tale of icy isolation, contamination and mutation.
A beard-tastic cast portrays the team of scientists on expedition in the Arctic who take in a dog. The dog is not a dog, though. Not really. And soon, in a cut-off wasteland with barely enough interior room to hold all the facial hair, folks are getting jumpy because there's no knowing who's not really himself anymore.
This is an amped up body snatcher movie benefitting from some of Carpenter's most cinema-fluent and crafty direction: wide shots when we need to see the vastness of the unruly wilds; tight shots to remind us of the close quarters with parasitic death inside.
Rob Bottin's FX, especially for the time, blew minds. That spider head move – woo-hoo!
The story remains taut beginning to end, and there's rarely any telling just who is and who is not infected by the last reel. You're as baffled and confined as the scientists.
The film was an inexplicable bomb with audiences and critics alike when it opened, but it's gone on to become a must-see.
Seriously, you must see it.
October 14th: Evil Dead (2013)
Photo courtesy of AP Photo/Sony-TriStar Pictures.
Evil Dead | 91 min | Rated: R
Bloody good remake (emphasis on bloody).
Yes, back in '81, tenderhearted Ash and his beloved Linda – both Michigan State fans – hopped in the old Oldsmobile Delta and headed into the Tennessee woods for a relaxing weekend with buddies Scott and Shelly, and Ash's bitchy sister Cheryl. Oh, the fun they had…
Flash forward, and a new set of vacationers young enough to be Ash and Linda's own kids (I mean, had Linda survived the weekend) take up the mantle and chainsaw in Evil Dead, director Fede Alvarez's update on Raimi's cult favorite.
What Raimi accomplished on a budget of half a shoestring can't be understated, but Three Stooges-style splatter is not what Alvarez is after. His reboot lovingly reworks Raimi's tale, eliminating nearly all the humor but absolutely none of the bloodletting.
The film throws a bit more story and character development at us. Still, we find two couples and one sister holed up in an old cabin, but this time David (Shiloh Fernandez, cute but disappointing), his girlfriend and his buddies are there to help his sister Mia (Jane Levy, exceptional) quit her drug habit.
Though it's impossible to pick out the contributions of each of the screenwriters updating Raimi's script, certain elements – like this back story – scream of Diablo Cody, who ingeniously introduces a concept that gives the film potential subtext by way of an unreliable narrator. (Did it all happen this way, or is Mia just insane and detoxing?)
Solid writing and Alvarez's gleefully indulgent direction allow the film – not only a remake, but a remake of a film that tread the overworn ground of "cabin in the woods horror" – to remain shockingly fresh. This is thanks in part to a handful of inspired tweaks, another handful of very solid performances, and a fearless but never contemptuous- eye for carnage.
From the super-creepy opening sequence, Alverez's update announces its fondness for the source material and his joyous aspiration to stretch that tale to its fullest, nastiest potential. He also shows a real skill for putting nail guns, machetes, hammers, electric meat slicers, hypodermics, even your standard bathroom mirror to fascinating new uses.
Oh, yeah..expect a lot of blood.
October 13th: Sleepaway Camp (1983)
Sleepaway Camp | 88 minutes | Rated: R
Yes, this is a bad film. It certainly falls into the "so bad it's good" category, but it's actually more than that. A seriously subversive film with blatant homosexual undertones, Sleepaway Camp is a bizarre take on the summer camp slasher. It's also wildly entertaining.
It may be the shocking finale that gave the film its cult status, but it's writer/director Robert Hilzik's off-center approach to horror that makes it interesting. Dreamy flashbacks, weirdly gruesome murders, and a creepy (yet somehow refreshing) preoccupation with beefcake separate this one from the pack.
It's not scary, certainly, but it is all manner of wrong. Aunt Martha – what kind of mad genius is this? The kill sequences are hugely imaginative, and the subversive approach to the entire film makes it hard to believe more people haven't seen this gem.
There are sequels. They are worth skipping, although the first two boast the casting of Bruce Springsteen's sister Pamela as the chipper sadist hatcheting her way through campers. So at least you have that.
October 12th: Eden Lake (2009)
Eden Lake | 91 minutes | Rated: R
It's crazy this film hasn't been seen more. The always outstanding Michael Fassbender takes his girl Jenny (Kelly Reilly) to his childhood stomping grounds – a flooded quarry and soon-to-be centerpiece for a grand housing development. He intends to propose, but he's routinely disrupted, eventually in quite a bloody manner, by a roving band of teenaged thugs.
Kids today!
The film expertly mixes liberal guilt with a genuine terror of the lower classes. The acting, particularly from the youngsters, is outstanding. And though James Watkins's screenplay makes a couple of difficult missteps, it bounces back with some clever maneuvers and horrific turns.
Sure, the "angry parents raise angry children" cycle may be overstated, but Jack O'Connell's performance as the rage-saturated offspring turned absolute psychopath is chilling.
There's the slow boil of the cowardly self righteous. Then there's this bit with a dog chain. Plus a railroad spike scene that may cause some squeamishness. Well, it's a grisly mess, but a powerful and provocative one. Excellent performances are deftly handled by the director who would go on to helm The Woman in Black.
Don't expect spectral terror in this one, though. Instead you'll find a bunch of neighborhood kids mad at their lot in life and taking it out on someone alarmingly like you.
October 11th: Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010)
Tucker and Dale vs Evil | 89 minutes | Rated: R
Horror cinema's most common and terrifying villain may not be the vampire or even the zombie, but the hillbilly. The Hills Have Eyes, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Deliverance and hundreds of others both play upon and solidify urban dwellers' paranoia about good country folk. The generous, giddy Tucker and Dale vs. Evil lampoons that dread with good natured humor and a couple of rubes you can root for.
In the tradition of Shaun of the Dead, T&DVE lovingly sends up a familiar subgenre with insightful, self-referential humor, upending expectations by taking the point of view of the presumably villainous hicks. And it happens to be hilarious.
Two backwoods buddies (an endearing Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk) head to their mountain cabin for a weekend of fishing. En route they meet some college kids on their own camping adventure. A comedy of errors, misunderstandings and subsequent, escalating violence follows as the kids misinterpret every move Tucker and Dale make.
Director Eli Craig's clever role reversal screenplay, co-written with Morgan Jurgenson, recreates the tension-building scenes that have become horror shorthand for "the hillbillies are coming." From the bait and tackle/convenience store encounter with bib overall clad townies, to the campfire retelling of likeminded teens lost forever in the wooded abyss, the setup is perfect.
Each punchline offers the would-be killers' innocent point of view – expressing their increasingly baffled take on what appears to them to be a suicide pact among the coeds.
T&DVE offers enough spirit and charm to overcome most weaknesses. Inspired performances and sharp writing make it certainly the most fun participant in the "You Got a Purty Mouth" class of film.

The Rangers have announced the signing of 27-year-old forward
Andre Deveaux.
The native of the Bahamas stands 6-4, 232 lbs and spent last season with the Chicago Wolves where he
registered 23 goals, 23 assists, a minus-18 rating and a whopping 194 penalty
It doesn't take much reading between the lines to realize
that Deveaux is slated to be an enforcer for the CT Whale this season. Deveaux was only involved in eight fights
last year according to
HockeyFights.com, but he has a long reputation of being a fearsome pugilist
so his presence alone should keep opponents from taking liberties with his
teammates. As Adam Rotter notes over at SNYRangersBlog.com, Deveaux was suspended for three games in February after throwing a roll of tape at a fan.
Deveaux did post offensive totals well beyond his previous
career highs in 2010-2011, so on top of his protector duties he should provide
some decent offensive punch for a Whale team that looks prepared for a big season.
Deveaux played in 22 NHL games for the Toronto Maple Leafs in
2008-2009 and 2009-2010 and netted just one assist to go with 75 penalty
Unlike Brendan
Bell, who could actually see time in New York this year, Deveaux is destined
to remain planted in the minor leagues.
Deveaux was originally drafted in the sixth round by the
Montreal Canadiens in 2002.

Step 1: What you'll need
1. Twine
2. a Knife (for cutting twine, clearing small brush,etc...)
3. Lots of sticks and logs
4. Dead Leaves
5. and a Rake
6. Hardcore builder (Booyah!)
That's all you'll need! See, easy! Keep going.
this is cool! can you make a simpler version with no string? so you could do it if you don't have tons of materials
Thanks for the 'ible- looks like you all had a great time!
Would thing I would suggest from personal experience: Make sure that your supporting poles and trusses are the largest, sturdiest wood on the entire project. (A previous commenter mentioned using two trees--kudos.) I recall a Scouting camporee where my patrol, for our project, built a lashed tower approx. 12 ft high. On one cross spar, we used a smaller, "deader" piece of wood. The piece held up okay until the last day, when we wanted to get the entire troop on the tower for a photograph. Oops! Thankfully, no one was hurt worse than a few bumps and scrapes. We all learned a valuable lesson on materials testing and engineering design that day.
Of course, in a survival situation, the quality and workmanship of any shelter is going to be based on expediency (materials available), time (length of stay), and environmental conditions (keep out predators, stand up to high winds, etc.).
One other thing: if you're in the wilds unprepared, you may not have twine available. Obviously, you may have toggle cords from your clothing or backpacks, or similar, but that's only going to get you so far, and you don't want to use them except as a last resort. You can use young, thin, whippy tree roots as cordage - find them close to the surface - and also make cordage out of fresh bracken or nettle stems...but that's a faff, so it's worth also using a bit of cunning. The trunks and big branches you use for the front supports and lean-to beams will probably have branches coming off them. Don't cut the branches off too close to the stems, and you can use the branch-points as extra supports for the cross-members, saving on cordage.
Also you can put a poncho under the roof leaves ( thin sheet plastic is nice to have along of course if you aren't a purist.) & a poncho liner for the floor over dry grass etc as noted for ground insulation. The funny thing was, we were on a hike 25 miles out & three of us built a fine shelter- ours was more of a roofed deal with log & boulder supports/ semi walls- but we built it for the three of us since the others could not be bothered- until it started pouring that night & about 8 or 9 took shelter! (This was in the days before satellite weather forecasts) I remember sleeping next to where the edge of the poncho dripped all night near my face. Ah Boy Scouts! Good times, builds character. Persevere & Be Prepared.

Recipe by Pillsbury® Crescents
"You can make this easy 4-ingredient, 8-serving casserole in just 30 minutes!"
Watch video tips and tricks
2 cups
shredded cooked chicken
1 (10 ounce) can
red enchilada sauce
2 (8 ounce) cans
Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls or Pillsbury® Crescent Recipe Creations® refrigerated seamless dough sheet
1 1/4 cups
shredded Mexican cheese blend
This tasted awesome and was sooo easy! I didn't even change a thing. Each enchilada uses 2 regular crescents with their seams put together. I halved the recipe for 4 and made it in my small corningware oval dish, it baked up nice and puffy, filled the whole dish when done. You HAVE to try the 10 min enchilada sauce recipe from this site - it was sooo good in this dish!! I served it with mexican rice II also from this site. I will make this often because its so easy.
This wasnt as good or as easy as I had hoped. Rolling the chicken in the dough was very messy and mine took forever to bake. I would need to decrease the sauce next time so they will cook faster. The taste wasnt too bad but not worth the work
87 Ratings
I had low expectations due to it's simplicity; but my family loved it, including my 3year old who is going through a picky stage.
We liked it! Baked up so easily! Much easier than conventional enchiladas, esp once you get used to pinching/wrapping the dough. Notes: 1) spray or grease the glass pan; mine stuck to the bottom a lot and I think this would help. 2) could use some spice. we have a kid, as maybe some of you do, so I think next time I'd split the chicken post-heating and add some spices to it and make half the enchiladas spicy. We compensated by topping with taco sauce. 3) One can of sauce was not quite enough, maybe 1 1/2 cans if you can use the 1/2 open can. 4) This tastes more like tamales to me than enchiladas. I think if you like tamales you will love the ease and taste of this recipe. 5) Wrap em quickly, the heated chicken makes the dough harder to work with.
Very easy. I boiled 2 chicken breasts and then shredded them with my fingers. I heated them with the enchilada sauce and added some taco seasoning. I put 2 rolls together to form a rectangle, then put the chicken and cheese in the middle. Rolled them up and baked in dish for about 15 minutes. They puff up really nice. I made 8 with a little chicken mixture left over.
Very good! I was quite pleased with these (I didn't set my expectations high at all). My hubby and I got a late start today. We had a few errands to run, and because we didn't leave the house until late in the day, I knew I wouldn't have much time to throw dinner together. These were a snap to prepare, especially since I subbed a rotisserie chicken and therefore eliminated the meat cooking step. As another reviewer commented, I can see how not using a pre-cooked chicken would make this less easy to prepare.... My only other change was halving everything (I was only feeding two people) and adding half a packet of chicken taco seasoning to my meat mixture. As ZELDA3333 did, I too made 4 "enchiladas" by sealing 2 regular crescent rolls together. I piled my filling in the center and then brought up each corner, pinching to seal. Served with Mexicorn and Spanish rice, this was a nice, filling meal. I wouldn't make this all the time, but won't eliminate it from my rotation either. If you're looking for a quick, kiddo pleasing meal that's super easy to put together, this just may be your thing. I can't wait to try this with taco sauce or BBQ pork (just purchase a tub of the stuff at your grocer, sub cheddar for Mexi-blend cheese, top with BBQ sauce and viola - an even EASIER alternative!). Thanks for another great recipe, Pillsbury! :-)
My boyfriend's sister made this last night and it was delicious! Plan on making it myself soon!
made this into a supreme by adding my own favorites like green onion, sweet bell pepper, touch of jalapeno, sour cream, cilantro, black olives! served it with a bed of lettuce, spanish rice, and refried beans. it's easy to make and tastes great!

Crews work to install new signs on building this week
Signs of Civista Medical Center's transformation are clear.
The hospital announced in May that effective July 1, its name would change to University of Maryland Charles Regional Medical Center. This week, crews have worked outside to install new signs and bring the change full circle.
The name change reflects the hospital's membership in the University of Maryland Medical System, which it joined in 2011.
As of Friday afternoon, new signs had been installed on the outside wall above the hospital's main entrance, above the doctor's entrance and on Charles Street. UM Charles Regional spokeswoman Tina Anderson said that crews had not yet begun working on installing signs at the back of the hospital. She said she was unsure whether the work would be finished by the close of business Friday and that it would likely spill over into the weekend.

Great tent for your money!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought this tent at the end of the summer and have used going down 5 day Cataract Canyon when there is gust winds up to 50 mph and when camping up in City of Rocks/Castle Rocks when it was snowing and the weather was low 40's upper 30's. You can pack it smaller than the stuff sack it comes with, makes it easy to fit other gear with it. Took me maybe two minutes to set up and breaking down is easy as well. With the rainfly on it'll keep you warm even when there is frost outside.
A whole lot of tent for your money!
I've owned this tent since 2008 and have taken it camping at least a dozen times and it has not failed me yet. I've slept in it in the rain several times and have stayed bone dry inside. I've also taken it to Assateague State Park and camped right on the beach, where it was extremely windy and this little tent took it all! Temperatures dropped to upper 30's in the morning and I still felt nice and cozy inside. It is super light and easy to set up, even in the dark. I am often sitting in my chair, relaxing with a cold drink, long before all my friends are still setting up their tents. It looks small on the outside but feels a lot roomier inside. Enough space for 2 if you don't have too much gear. I love this tent! Who said backpacking tents needed to cost $200+? There is no better tent at this price!
Great little tent from Kelty
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I recently used this tent during a eight-day backpacking trip throughout the Isle Royale National Park. Despite a three-day rainy weather nothing got wet inside this tent. I like how easy it is to set up and it is lightweight enough. I bought it from Backcountry.com for less than the price listed because they matched Campmor sale price of $119.00.
david graham
for price good tent
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Bought it mostly for weekend trips, Have taken it backpacking once and it was not too heavy split between 2 people and still gave you everything you want out of tent. The vestibule is an awesome place for shoes and other, very nice size. endured some pretty heavy winds
would recommend.
First Impression: Grand Mesa 2!
Have not taken this tent out yet, but set it up and looked around... for the price, this looks like it is a great little tent. Check out my video to see it in action. I will post a more complete review once I take it out on the trail.
Richard Udell
Great review! I am seriously considering buying this tent over the Salida 2. Curious- what kind of pants are you wearing in the review (brand/style)? Thanks!
Zoie Engman
Excellent weight-to-size ratio!
I got this tent primarily for a weekend backpacking trip to the Sierras. It was light, easy to pack in, and extremely easy to single-handedly set-up. The rainfly gives a nice little area to leave shoes outside, but only having one door is a drawback. Other than that, it easily fit me/sleeping pad/gear/dog, shrugged off dirt like nothing, and balanced giving an awesome view of the starry sky with providing protection from the wind. Would definitely recommend!
Matthew Pizza
So far so good
Only taken this out once so far but it worked great. Lightweight, easy and fast to set up, nice sized vestibule. I haven't weighed it personally but I think with the footprint it might be less than 4lbs. I feel like that is a conservative spec on Kelty's part. Great for one person, tight fit for two but doable.
Big Bend and big wind
Did a 3-day trip to Big Bend on the outer loop trails. With thunderstorms left and right, the Kelty Grand Mesa 2 stood up to 50 mph gusts and some strong downpours. Stayed dry and tent managed to weather the high wind gusts with no problem at all. Although it listed as a 2-person tent it worked out perfectly for myself and my gear. It would be a tight fit for two people and the vestibule is not quite large enough to handle a multiple day or long distance load for two people. If you're looking for a good solo tent for you and your gear I highly recommend it, but it might be a tight fit for two and their gear except for a short overnighter........
easy shmeasy
I have only used the tent for a week, but I have enjoyed it. Very quick to set up. Fit 2 very large sleeping pads inside. The shape of the footprint makes it so you want to put your head by the only door, which would not be my first choice. Kept me cool (and able to see the stars) without the rain fly, and perfectly dry with it.
Great tent!! I work for a conservation corps in AZ and we do a lot of multiple days in the field so good shelter is clutch. The tent is wonderful keeps everything dry super easy set up light easy to set up and break down and great price. love kelty brand they are always reliable also love backcountry.com customer service is great! Only negative quality is one door :(
Great Tent
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I took it car camping this past weekend to try it out and loved it. It was big enough to comfortably hold me (5' 8", not petite) and my Collie-mix. It was incredibly easy to set up and break down; I was relaxing while my friends were still working on their tent. It also kept me dry when it rained, while my friends' tent leaked despite having an extra tarp attached. (I may have gloated just a bit.) I was worried that my dog's nails would damage it, but it came out without a scratch. I had a comfortable, dry, bug-free weekend.
For those who like to use air mattresses, this will fit a twin size with room for a lantern and some smaller things as well. Any larger would not fit. Also, if you are tall you will brush your head against parts of the ceiling while seated due to the added height from the mattress. Not a big deal other than causing static in your hair and making it slightly more difficult to enter/exit. I personally plan on using a pad next time.
Overall I really loved this tent and can't wait to use it again.

I bought the Kelty Grand Mesa 2 Tent as a birthday gift for a friend and she loves it. I had the chance to check it out with her when she initially set it up. For the price it's a great little tent.
Send it.
Got this one a few months ago. Super light, durable, everything a Kelty normally is. Very simple design means while all my friends are still setting up their tents mine is assembled and I'm sipping some whiskey offering nothing but pointers on why they should really invest in a Kelty. Walked through 8 hours of rain last week, and though literally everything else was soaked, the tent was bone dry.
If I was you, I'd probably buy one.

I plan on buying this tent mainly for backpacking trips but I also plan on using it for car camping with my sons (8&4). Will this tent hold a queen airmattress (with no other gear)?

No this tent will not fit a queen size air mattress, if that is what you are looking to do you will need to look at a 3 person tent.

Arthur Debowski
Once it is air dried you can store it in the stuff sack and that should be fine. I've stored them loosely in a duffle as well to prevent creasing if I know I won't be using it for a while.
danny andres
Stuff it, that is why they come in a stuff sack.

Literally on the slopes, this ski-in ski-out hotel could not be better located. The Alpkogel gondola is directly outside the hotel, whisking skiers past the hotel's sun terrace into the ski area. The children's ski area and ski school meeting point is just a 50m walk from the hotel. The ski bus stop to Galtur and Ischgl stops at the base of the slopes, 100m away. The family-run hotel offers traditional Tyrolean character, fantastic facilities and a reputation for superb food. At the end of the day, you can almost ski into the après ski bar that offers panoramic views from its sun terrace. Arguably, the best located hotel for skiing families, couples and groups.

High-Efficiency Stoves for Darfur Refugees
Roll over image to zoom in
2,000,000 people die each year from illness related to breathing smoke from cooking fires. This is equivalent to the entire AIDS epidemic and 3x as many annual deaths as malaria.
Poor Health: Cooking over an open fire is equivalent to smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day. Women and children in developing countries are exposed each day to pollution from cooking smoke, up to 20 times the level recommended by the World Health Organization. Cook fires in poorly ventilated homes cause more than 3 deaths per minute. Exposure to cooking smoke leads to low birth weight, childhood pneumonia, tuberculosis, and a number of chronic illnesses.
Poverty: Families pay as much as a third of their income to purchase fuel for cooking. Cooking over open fires imposes high financial costs on families, especially the very poor, whose incomes of less than 2 dollars a day must be stretched to cover basic necessities.
Environment: Cook fires cause deforestation and climate change. Cook fires emit greenhouse gases laced with sunlight-absorbing black carbon, and hurry deforestation. Black carbon is the second greatest contributor to global warming, responsible for an estimated 18% of the Earth's rising temperature.
Safety: Women and girls face assault as they forage for fuel in conflict zones. Finding wood to cook meals is a daily struggle for many women around the world. Women and girls must walk many hours, several times a week, just to find a single tree with usable wood to fuel their fires. Outside the relative safety of refugee camps, they are vulnerable to acts of violence.
Clean cookstoves save lives, create economic opportunity and combat climate change.
Designed to optimize fuel-efficiency and reduce toxic emissions when cooking meals, a clean cookstove is one intervention that addresses almost all of the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals: ending poverty and hunger; gender equity; child health; maternal health; and environmental sustainability. For half the world's population, a clean cookstove means one less day of struggling to find enough wood to survive. It means increased safety, better health, less harm to the environment, a higher income, more time and increased employment.
Your caring and compassion saves lives.Each stove costs $20, which covers the cost of materials as well as transport of the stove kits from India for assembly in Sudan by displaced Darfuris. Potential Energy is now working with a local partner to sell the stoves and build a sustainable project, which will allow them to help more women. Because each stove saves a woman almost $1 per day in firewood expenses, it pays for itself in less than a month. For women who cannot afford paying the full cost of the stove up front, they are offered the option to pay for the stove in installments and through savings groups. For women who cannot afford a stove at all, we continue to cover the full $20 cost of the stove through money raised from caring supporters like you. Thank you for all that you do!
Report from the Field
May 2012: Our field partner, Sustainable Action Group, is currently finishing the assembly of 2,200 stoves and have started free distribution in the Zam Zam IDP camp. We are also collecting feedback from users in Ethiopia on a modified version of the stove and will have an Ethiopia Stoves Project up and running soon.
We envision a world where technology improves the lives of everyone equitably.
Potential Energy's mission is to adapt and scale technologies that improve lives in developing countries.

Additions to Our Sleep Armamentarium
What's new in sleep medicine? The latest developments in both new and novel approaches to treating sleep disorders.
Depression and Restless Legs Syndrome
Depression is a frequent psychiatric comorbidity among patients with restless leg syndrome. The case presented here illustrates the importance of evaluating for RLS symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder who complain of insomnia.
Restless Legs Syndrome Tied to Increased Mortality
Primary care physicians need to pay more attention to this common medical disorder that frequently is unrecognized or misdiagnosed.
How American Psychiatry Can Save Itself: Part 1
Charles Dickens might well say of American psychiatry, "These are the best of times and the worst of times."
Diagnosis and Treatment of Restless Legs Syndrome in Psychiatric Practice
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurosensory disorder first described by Sir Thomas Willis in 1672. As early as the 19th century, Theodor Wittmaack observed the comorbidity of RLS with depression and anxiety. He termed this condition "anxietas tibiarum" and believed it to be a form of hysteria.
Sleep Disorders in the Elderly
A variety of conditions may account for the sleep difficulties experienced by many older adults, including specific sleep disorders, circadian rhythm disturbances, and medical and psychiatric comorbidities.
New Study Identifies Gene and Comorbidities of RLS
Is neuromyelitis optica (nmo) igg autoantibody unique to NMO or is it expressed in multiple sclerosis (MS) as well? Recent studies have confirmed the autoantibody's specificity and are shedding more light on how NMO IgG's autoantigen, the water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP4), uniquely behaves in NMO and MS.

Pink Floyd's Own Brand of Spectacle
Of all the Brontosaurus rock acts out roaming this summer, Pink Floyd is the one most likely to graze the best on the world's capital. Where the Grateful Dead are limited by their fidelity to an American Beat ideal, and where the Eagles tap into local myths, Pink Floyd is willing to embrace narratives about aging and love and greed that are transnational, and to do it in a pop-rock style that listeners, male and female, can understand.June 13, 1994 artsReview

Is Necessity still the mother of all inventions?
The question is simple and straight forward. I am thankful for all the inventions that is making our life easier and giving us various options. But does this old famous proverb still make the same sense?
For example, how necessary is the "Foldable" mobile phone?
It would be great to get to know different perceptions on this thought which will help me with a study.
Don Anderson
Apr 18 2013: It is necessity that drives medical, safety, healthy foods, and other types of inventions.
- +3
So with necessity being the mother, I say desire is the father of invention.
And don't forget invention crazy uncle, creativity.
Apr 18 2013: Hmm... Creativity. First of all, I'd say desire and laziness is also an important factor. But as for creativity... It is a tool most commonly used to solve inventions, not to invent alone? (It's just my thoughts, nothing absoloute) – Does art count as an invention? It IS thinking of images that does not yet exist etc. ... I mean such a picture as : http://9gag.com/gag/7108228 is a good example of expressing a perception of something by imagery, making it more easily understandable.
I would say the drives of invention is neccesity, laziness, desire, and 'anger' – anger understood in the way that if something annoys you, you do something about it. But it's got to provoke you enough. Perhaps if we tried deliberately to provoke more people (not verbally though), maybe more "inventions" or new thinking would take place?Apr 19 2013: I like to think the environment and the concept of 'upcycling' has created a new 'necessity' for invention.
We have so much 'stuff', most of which are rusting or rotting away in landfills. the bottom of the sea, or in space. Or in our very own garage or attic.
I grew up in a nomadic lifestyle with a huge appreciation and respect for quality of design (my dad was an industrial designer, my Mom was a photographer). They 'made' most of our furniture in the 60's and 70's out of existing materials, and I am thrilled to see the same trend surfacing now!Apr 18 2013: A mother must necessarily take care of her children. If there is something that we need (a necessary invention) than yes, the metaphor still makes perfect sense.
A lot of people focus on inventing new ideas about what will improve ourselves and our society in some way. Creativity also plays a key role - I suppose even invention for pure enjoyment (such as writing a new story) is driven by necessity because as humans, we have that aspect of needing to be fulfilled emotionally and mentally.
Apr 19 2013: Very interesting way to put it... Thanks KendiApr 20 2013: Yes, surrogate mother. We find necessities for our inventions.Apr 19 2013: Yeah, that still stands. However .. there are few "inventions" and many spin offs. The things happening in electronics is generally adaptations and not even a generation change.
I tried to buy a cell phone that is basically a send / recieve .... there is no such thing. The media has convienced us that it is necessary to have the latest and greatest. In school .. even the lowest level ... we have developed a "keep up with the Jones" attitude. Watch the kids and the first thing they do is compare .. everything. Media and marketing are running our lives. People camp out for days and even weeks to be the first to have a new game ... cell phone ... radio.
So ..IMO ... "necessity" is now, in some instances, being determined by the media / marketers.
I wish you well. Bob.Apr 19 2013: Windows 8 was certainly not born of necessity. The mother of invention is perceived profitability/ fame. Rube Goldberg is relevant in this dicussion.Apr 19 2013: G'day Mohanapriya
Absolutely nothing has changed from past history however a lot more inventions are based on just making money making these days compared to our past history, was the creation of the wheel based just on necessity? Hmmm I wonder!!
Apr 19 2013: Creation of wheel itself was to make our life easier. But now one cant imagine a life without it. I wonder if there will be any concept of wheel at all in a 1000 years as portrayed in Futurama!
Apr 19 2013: G'day Mohanapriya
I think once inventions aren't based on financial gain the concept of wheelless crafts of some kind is a definite possibility & it will be hard concept for those born without knowing of vehicles/crafts to understand the use of the wheel in the first place. When you think about it, 100 yrs ago a lot of people in the world didn't have any notion s of the automobiles.
Basing inventions on how profitable a particular invention is going to be is holding us back big time, a lot of inventions haven't been produced because of the implications on our economy &/or they are not profitable enough to produce. I'm not into conspiracy theories but the two links below after further research make sense.
MathewApr 18 2013: hi Mohanapriya,
I would say, I agree that necessity is the motto to create, innovate, or make simpler objects or processes. Regarding your question, "how necessary is the Foldable mobile phone?" I do not see it as a necessity but practicity for use it or carry it on.Apr 18 2013: Yes no change on this nor will there ever be anymore than gravity will change
Another way to look at this is that with every problem there is an opportunity to make it better which is the mother of all inventions.
One can think of himself as the poor victim of these problems or one can think of himself as the solver of these problems. I highly recommend the latter.
The entire standard of living that we enjoy today comes from this mentality. The good news it is accelerating. 20 years ago very few had cell phones today very few do not have them and a gazillion other things have been invented, when you are older you have seen the before and after and it is amazing. So hold onto your Segway because the segway into the next tech revolution is going to be a rocket ride. Nano/Bio engineering is in the nascent stages...
Apr 19 2013: We have started to set ourselves higher expectations each day, isn't it? And to fulfil our need for meeting those expectations we invent and improvise constantly even when there isn't much need of it.
Apr 19 2013: So you would say that there isn't any need for a cure for cancer, potable water for those without it, alternative energy as we have passed peak oil, a device that detects bombs that is portable, something that can change global warming or cooling whichever the case may be, or a device that prevents lions from eating your cattle so that you don't have to kill the lions, etc. etc. ?Apr 18 2013: Hmm? I say good mental health is a necessity, and entertainment, companionship, feeling productive and needed are aspects needed for good mental health.
So therefor wouldn't that make all the feel good inventions indirectly children of necessity?Apr 18 2013: To take a different spin/view, I say Industriousness is the virtues that drives inventions, that is industriousness as in one of the Vikings' nine noble virtues.
1. Courage
2. Truth (AI: always seek to discover, see, and accept the truth.)
3. Honour
4. Fidelity
5. Discipline
6. Hospitality
7. Self-Reliance
8. *Industriousness*
9. Perseverance
There are many ways to phrase it, but basically it is a desire to find better ways to do things.

Read Poems by

Rose La Traille
fury burns within my heart...
my still beating heart burning
from the inside out
screaming to finally be free from this pain
eyes dry
head aches
stomach churns to thought of no longer
there being a you and me
the flame now a distant memory
along with the love we once held..
i once let you escape from my grip
but claimed you back...now
you let me slip away this time..
promise in the pouring rain that
we wouldnt let each other go..
now shattered and lost in the gutter
crushed, washed away...gone..
love burning down
heart crashing down...
chances disappeared...

Tuesday, September 25, 2001Johnson City, Tenn. -- The East Tennessee State volleyball team won their fourth consecutive match as they defeated Southern Conference rival Appalachian State, 3-0 Tuesday night from Brooks Gym.

Who first determined the structure of water (two hydrogen atoms stuck to an oxygen atom at approx 105 degrees), and, more importantly, how was this done?

Lavoisier isolated, or at least named - (bit of a row with Cavendish) Hydrogen and Oxygen and was the first to make water from H2 and O2. Not sure who determined the bond angle but presumably it had to wait for the invention of x-ray crystalography in the early 20C

If $0< a_1\le a_2\le \cdots \le a_n\le a_{n+1}$ and $p>1$, is it true that $$\left(\frac{n+1}{n}\right)^{1-\frac{1}{p}}\left(\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n+1}a_i^p}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_i^p}\right)^{\frac{1}{p}}\ge \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n+1}a_i}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_i}?$$ The numerator and denominator looks like Hölder's inequality.

MathOverflow is a question and answer site for professional mathematicians. It's 100% free, no registration required.
It's not true. Your proposed inequality can be thought of as saying that the quotient
$(L^p\text{-average of }a_1,\ldots,a_n)/(L^1\text{-average of }a_1,\ldots,a_n)$
is nondecreasing in $n$. If this were true for large $p$ then it would be true for $p=\infty$, which would say that
$a_n/(L^1\text{-average of }a_1,\ldots,a_n)$
is nondecreasing in $n$. But this is clearly false. Just take $a_{n+1}=a_n$: the numerator stays the same but the denominator increases.
