When paramedics come to the rescue, they typically look for vital signs first -- breathing, a pulse. But in more communities each year, paramedics might also be sizing up the patient to see if a bariatric ambulance specially designed to carry severly obese people needs to be called.
Topeka, Kan., is one of at least 30 communities across the United States that has commissioned ambulances with a specialized cot, ramp and winch to lift patients who weigh more than 350 pounds, according to ABC News affiliate KTKA in Topeka.
Patients who need the special ambulances in Topeka will be charged more money for the service -- $1,172 rather than $629, plus $16 per mile rather than $11.
After a decade of spiraling weight problems in America, hospitals across the country are responding with bariatric specialized care -- from floor-mounted toilets to specialized prenatal clinics for obese women.
"We really think this helps provide dignity to a patient," said Douglas Moore, public relations manager for American Medical Response, a private ambulance service that operates in 43 states and is the developer of the "bariatric" ambulance used in Topeka's Shawnee County. The company's first bariatric ambulance debuted in 2002, and they have spread across the country ever since.
"A lot of our profession is lifting patients from the cot into the bed," he said.
Moore said clients across the country, including fire departments, occasionally have had to call for backup to lift severely obese patients.
Obesity activists reacted with disdain to the practice of charging more for use of the new bariatric equipment, especially in a service funded by taxpayers.
"Increasing that rate from $629 to $1,172 is price gouging, and it's targeting a particular group of people," said Barbara Thompson, vice chairman of the Obesity Action Coalition in Tampa, Fla. "It can be looked at no other way than discriminating against them."
AMR markets the higher charge as a solution to cities, counties and towns that respond frequently to such patients at an extra cost to ... someone.
"We don't advertise this as a bariatric ambulance. ... You wouldn't know that it was a different ambulance on the outside," said Moore. "We do advertise it to the hospital."
Many ambulance services and hospitals do not charge the patient directly for the specialized services. But it will cost something to continually serve such patients or keep up with the obesity rates. In 1999, 32 states had an obesity rate below 20 percent. Today, only one state has an obesity rate below 20 percent.
"We look at it as an investment in service and quality versus an additional cost that we have to pass off on somebody," said Steve Lawler, president of Pitt County Memorial Hospital in Greenville, N.C.
Similar to a sub-specialty in geriatrics, Lawler said Pitt County Memorial Hospital has worked with the American Nurses Association to develop an accreditation for bariatric nursing. The hospital also has invested in lifts and special beds to accommodate bariatric patients in or outside of the bariatric surgery center.
"It [the change] really has been over the last two years," said Lawler. "It's reflective in regards to what's going in health care and what's going on in health reform."
Perhaps spurred either by the idea of changing the focus of hospitals and health care, or by sheer logistics, hospitals in many areas are implementing similar renovations.

Linux Systems Administrator, Booz Allen Hamilton
This conversation is closed.
We should create adaptive systems to support humanity in it's goals.
What if, we created a server/os/program that could create virtual machines on it's own. The administrator first creates a virtual machine template with a purpose (mail server, apache server, etc.) We then have a team of developers take a systems administrator wiki and start automating everything by writing a program that can do it. So the server would be adaptive, it would act upon input much like a human. The server creates the virtual server, the virtual server uses programs to automate tasks. If we focused on this we could probably create an endless loop, slightly scary because I think that was in the AI movie. Just a thought...
Jan 27 2012: The problem is that we can only write program's for known situations. As programming uses an "if ... then ..." mechanism it's hard, if not impossible as far as I know, to write a program that adapts to unprogrammed situations. That's why we will probably always need humans to operate the systems and can't have a fully self-sufficient program.
Jan 27 2012: Thanks for chiming in man... Two thoughts come from your answer. The first being maybe it's a better idea for us not to have a self-sufficient program as I saw what happened in iRobot LOL. The second would be more of a question as you certainly know more about this then I do. If we wrote enough if and then would we eventually make a loop? Much like if you click the first link in a Wikipedia article over and over again eventually you will end up at Philosophy no matter what the subject of origin is. If we have a basis a foundation the possibility of the computer not solving the problem the first time around is possible but if it loops we get a second chance. The next question being would the computer come to the same conclusion over and over again? Maybe we should test it, see how it works, and then see if we could find out where the disconnect is? What do you think?
Jan 27 2012: You should read the book Robocalypse if you're interested in that kind of fiction!
I'm a paid freelance programmer next to my Information Science. I'm not infallible though.
I think it's possible to create systems that learn from situations automatically by their results and can predict the outcome of certain situations based on results from previous (similar) situations. Of course you could channel any problems the system hasn't occured before on to experts so they can solve them and the system can learn from it, but then it wouldn't be a self-sufficient-system but only decrease the need for experts. You can read more about these kind of systems here or Google for the term "Expert Systems":
To answer your second question: Yes, the result would always be the same. Saying this I am assuming that the input the system receives (from the outside, like the situation, and from the inside, as in the database) would be precisely the same as the system uses math to calculate the solution: A calculation always has the same result, untill you change a parameter.
Jan 27 2012: Ok trying to wrap my head around this while working at my job hahaha... If we created this loop which essentially would always have the same outcome. What if we put in a always changing variable? so the outcome was never the same... granted this won't be the best outcome... But if we then set up a purpose for it we can take the outcome which is never the same and use some if and then statements to direct it. Essentially like learning we would have to work through each (always changing variable) at a time. Record that choice in a database and have it pull from there like past experiences. I suppose the harder part would be teaching it how to relate things to one and other... I feel like this is possible hahaha I just don't know how. The good thing is you never know what will happen, our conversation here on TED could lead to something amazing.Jan 27 2012: But realise that your always changing variable that you want to try each possibility for and record it is not simply a number, but an attribute of a situation. Let me draw a situation for you:
We program a system that calculates whether firefighters are allowed to enter a building. We give the system as input possibilities:
- The number of firefighters / victims
- The size of the fire
- The complexity of the building
Then, after implementing the system, a fire occurs:
- There's 3 firefighters and 2 people inside, unconscious
- It's a small fire
- The room with the people is easily accessible
But there is also a gas leak about to happen, as the pipe is of bad quality and likely to burst. (Theoretically, probably not likely in real life, but I dont know anything about gas pipe's..)
The system wouldn't be able to make a right decision because we can't give it all the information we need to. An expert would have to make a quick decision due to the time limit of this situation and the system needs updated.
Of course this is not very likely a thing to forget to build into the system but it's an example: We can never predict every possible attribute of a situation. Hence we will always need experts for when the system doesnt suffice and the system will never be self-sufficient. The risk of assuming creating a self-sufficient system is possible is that we will end up having no experts when the system can't calculate the right answer. That's why we should always remember we need to be able to replace systems like these with humans may the need occur.
Jan 27 2012: That's a good enough answer for me, I can accept the fact that human beings will forever be smarter then computers. LOL actually I'd prefer it to be that way as I am a human :-)Jan 27 2012: If we could write choice as a variable I wonder how that would be done... It seems if and then are not enough :-) or maybe right why as a variable? Curious are all variables constant? Could we have a variable that never stays the same in the equation therefore always creating a new answer? Maybe call it the change variable... I'm sure everyone that writes programs has thought of this already LOL
Jan 27 2012: You could write a variable that's random with one simple function, but I assume you want the solution to be the best one and not a random one? This would have to be done with a mathematical function by calculating the chance of success per option. The problem is that the system has to give a certain value to certain "features" of a situation which have to be predetermined or learned based on history.
See a system like this as an automation of the human mind when it makes a choice: Before we can write a system that can make decisions like humans do we have to know precisely how a human brain calculates the best option and implement this in a mathematical way. If we can accomplish this the next step would be to give it more experience than a human brain by feeding it as much input, based on historic facts, as we can.

Waste Site Cleanup & Reuse in New England
The WWLP-22 Television Station
|This Success Story was completed before the signing of the 2002 Brownfields Legislation. The Assessment Demonstration Pilot Program is now called the Assessment Grant Program.
Success in the Brownfields Assessment Demonstration
Pilot Program
Chicopee, Massachusetts
This 8.5-acre site was formerly home to both the Conway Bedding factory and the Hallahan lumber yard. The Conway property was used for light assembly, manufacturing, and warehousing for 39 years. The site contained several above-ground storage containers and had asbestos contamination. The Hallahan site was used for a car dealer, public storage, furniture stripping, and a lumber yard. The lumber company was built in 1925, and a fire destroyed one building at the site in 1990. The site also contained underground storage tanks.
The City of Chicopee took title to both properties in 1996 for delinquent taxes and begun efforts to redevelop the site. The City used funds from its EPA Brownfields Assessment Demonstration Pilot to complete a site assessment. This assessment led to the excavation of a 6,600 gallon storage tank, removal of five electrical transformers, and removal of asbestos and other hazardous materials from the 52,871 square-foot building. The building was later demolished.
The redeveloped site was sold to WWLP-22, Channel 22 for $250,000 in 1998. Channel 22 invested approximately $2 million to build a two-story, 1,600 square-foot news studio; a two-story, 4,800 square-foot production studio; and offices for news, weather, and sports reporters. Construction plans also included a 6,000 square-foot garage for news vehicles, a 1,200 square-foot courtyard, and a 25-foot television transmitting/receiving antenna.

Comments about Leatherman Crater Utility Knife:
i had one of those swiss army pocket knives which served me well and i lost it in travel. i decided to give this Leatherman product a try since i already have a Leatherman multi-tool that i love. i am more than delighted with my new pocket knife. I took an allen wrench and removed the belt clip as it tends to make the knife more bulky and i never use those belt clips anyway. Leatherman simply makes an excellent product.

Lewis Hamilton says he got the best result possible when he brought his W05 home in third place in Sunday's German Grand Prix...
Lewis Hamilton says he got the best result possible when he brought his W05 home in third place in Sunday's German Grand Prix.
Starting 20th on the grid following his qualifying accident and subsequent gearbox penalty, Hamilton provided much of the afternoon's entertainment.
The Mercedes driver sliced his way through the field, even passing Kimi Raikkonen and Daniel Ricciardo in one move at the hairpin.
However, it was almost one overtake too many as later, again at the hairpin, he tagged former team-mate Jenson Button, breaking the front wing of his W05.
The damage, though, counted for little as Hamilton raced to third place, held up in the final seven laps by Valtteri Bottas, who finished P2.
"I had great fun," said Hamilton. "I did as good as I could.
"It was very hard to get through the pack safely and I had a little bit of a collision with Jenson.
"I honestly thought he was going to open the door which he has done a couple of times lately but that was my bad judgement.
"It was hard to overtake so I'm glad to get some points today."
And although Hamilton was grateful to Mercedes for giving him a car capable of racing from 20th to third, he was a bit disappointed at have lost ground in the title race.
His 15 points scored in Germany mean the British racer heads to the Hungaroring trailing Nico Rosberg by 14 points.
"From a personal point of view, I can't be too ecstatic about the race because it has been a tough weekend for me and I've ultimately lost more points to Nico in the Championship battle.
"But I'm grateful that I could limit the damage with a podium finish. When you are sitting on the grid basically in last place, with no other cars in your mirrors, it's very hard to imagine that you could be standing up there two hours later.
"I'm so grateful to the team for this car, I really take my hat off to them for building a machine that can put in that kind of performance."
He added: "I'm doing absolutely everything I can to get back on level terms with Nico in the title battle: I can't focus more or work harder than I am doing right now.
"This Championship is proving a big challenge for me but that's how I love it - and I wouldn't have it any other way. "

Alicia Angelini
|Assistant Coach
|Phone Number:
|(203) 582-6547
|Email Address:
|3rd Season
|Previous College:
|UConn '13
|Assistant Coach
Hired in the summer of 2013, former University of Connecticut captain and two-time All-BIG EAST stand-out Alicia Angelini begins her third year as an assistant coach for the Quinnipiac field hockey program. Her expertise as a former player at the middlefield and defensive positions made an immediate impact as she helped guide the Bobcats to the 2013 MAAC Championship.
"Adding another assistant coach to the field hockey program was a huge addition to the depth of our program," said Main. "We are very excited to bring in such an elite and high caliber person to fill the position. Alicia comes from one of the very best programs in the country and her BIG EAST Conference titles and trip to the NCAA Championships will lend itself well to a squad looking to ascend to new levels. Alicia stood out from our other candidates because of her tactical knowledge and fierce competitiveness and we are confident she will make an immediate impact in our team's successes this season."
Angelini comes to the Bobcats after a stellar career at UConn, in which she started all 88 games the Huskies played in over the four-year stint. During her time in Storrs, Angelini helped UConn to the NCAA Tournament four times, leading the Huskies to the Final Four as a junior. That season, Angelini garnered All-BIG EAST Second Team honors and earned the Keith Caddy Memorial Award, also known as the "Heart Award". In addition, she was the recipient of the Melissa Gonzolas Award, named to the New England High Performance Team and a BIG EAST All-Academic selection.
In 2012, Angelini was an All-BIG EAST First Team honoree while also being named to the National Field Hockey Coaches' Association (NFHCA) All-Region team. After the season, she was selected to play in the NFHCA Division I Senior Game. A senior captain at UConn, she earned one BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week nod while guiding the Huskies to the Elite Eight.
In 2012, Angelini scored a career-high five goals, while assisting on four more for a personal best of 14 points for the year. In 2011, she tallied two markers, while also assisting on a career best six goals for 10 points. She also scored twice and added five assists in 2010 after accumulating four assists as a freshman in 2009.
"I am extremely excited that Alicia has joined the staff at Quinnipiac where I began my coaching career," remarked UConn's Field Hockey Associate Head Coach Paul Caddy. "As one of the most competitive players I have ever coached, I am sure Alicia will bring a toughness and competitive edge to Quinnipiac's program. Alicia is also very strong technically and has a good understanding of the tactical side of the game. Alicia will prove to be a great addition to the QU program and I look forward to following the Bobcats again this year!"
A native of Boiling Springs, Pa., Angelini was a four-time letter-winner and senior captain at Boiling Springs High School. In 2008, she was named the Mid-Penn Athlete of the Year while also earning Carlisle (Pa.) Sentinel Big 11 First Team and Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot News Big 11 Second Team honors. In addition, Angelini was named the 2008 Boiling Springs High School Team Most Valuable Player. A two-time Mid-Penn Field Hockey All-Star in 2007 and 2008, she was also a 2007 Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot News Big 11 Honorable Mention. In 2006, she was named to the Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot News Big 11 All-Underclassman Team and also lettered in track and field for three seasons at Boiling Springs. In 2007 and 2008, she was a participant with the U.S. Field Hockey Futures Elite team.
Angelini graduated from UConn's College of Liberal Arts & Sciences with a bachelor's degree in communication sciences.

Cefic forecasts output decline; Bock calls on EU to address energy, feedstock issues
6:52 AM MDT | June 27, 2013 | Natasha Alperowicz
European chemicals output will contract by 1.0% this year before returning to modest growth of 1.5% in 2014, Cefic, the European Chemical Industry Council, said today. The 2013 figure is lower than the 0.5% expansion announced in December 2012, as the economic development to date has been weaker than expected. The gradual recovery will follow stabilization of industrial production in Europe after two years of weakness, and a modest rise in exports. But the European chemicals sector, which generates 1% of the region's GDP and which employs 1.2...

En español | An estimated one in in six American men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime — a risk that increases with age — making it the second-most common cancer in men after skin cancer. But a growing body of evidence indicates that a healthy diet and exercise can ward off cancer in general and prostate cancer in particular, says nutrition expert Wendy Demark-Wahnefried, Ph.D., Associate Director of the Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
See also: 5 ways to help prevent prostate cancer.
Demark-Wahnefried says that men concerned about prostate health should follow the general guidance of the American Cancer Society (ACS) for eating to reduce cancer risk:
- A diet high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains
- Avoid fats, refined grains and sugars
- Maintain a healthy body weight
That last point is key. "Probably the most important thing for men concerned about prostate cancer is weight management," Demark-Wahnefried says. "The data show clearly that overweight men whose body mass index is 30 or above are 34 percent more likely to get aggressive prostate cancer" than men whose BMI is below that range, she says.
Researchers continue to explore whether certain foods and nutrients have an exceptional impact on prostate cancer. Healthy eating pioneer Dr. Dean Ornish says his studies have confirmed that lifestyle changes similar to those he recommends to reverse heart disease — including a vegan diet and regular exercise — have been found to slow the growth of some prostate cancers.
An ACS report on prostate cancer risk factors contains similar findings. "Men who eat a lot of red meat or high-fat dairy products appear to have a slightly higher chance of getting prostate cancer," it notes. "These men also tend to eat fewer fruits and vegetables. Doctors are not sure which of these factors is responsible for raising the risk."
Additional ACS studies are under way to test whether compounds in tomatoes (called lycopenes) and in soybeans (called isoflavones) may help prevent prostate cancer. Other useful foods include pomegranate juice, which may slow the rise of PSA levels (the tumor marker measured in blood tests) in men after prostate cancer surgery or radiation therapy, and flaxseed, which may slow the rate at which prostate cancer cells multiply in men with early prostate cancer.

Fresh Seafood?
I have tried a few seafood restaurants but I haven't found a good one. Any recommendations?
re: Bill Hunt
I have had some very good seafood at Roy's, though it is predominately "Island," read, Hawai`ian.
had a pleasant evening, but a mostly vile meal, at Mastro's Ocean Club at Kierland tonight. Stylish digs, but I hope this is not the best seafood in town. WOrst dish was seared tuna tataki was a soggy mess, totally destroyed any integrity the fish might have had. Sad waste of what might have been sushi-grade tuna, but hard to tell. Spicy mambo salad is a misconceived variation on Caesar; two of us ordered it, both plates went back less than half-eaten, and no, staff did not ask if there was something wrong....commercial pre-chopped romaine in a nasty, pasty dressing with wasabi powder (not real wasabi, just stale old powder) mixed in. The lobster tails and
seafood tower selections are all frozen except the oysters, andthe highlights of the meal were the roasted brussels sprouts...quite tasty albeit rich...the warm butter cake. ..and my husband's filet mignon, perfectly done and a good piece of meat. Large and very good coffees, but overall pricey for a bad meal.
re: KAYLO
The brussel sprouts there are pretty awesome, last time i was there we tried to decide if we liked the ribeye or the brussel sprouts more, we decided the brussel sprouts were the winner
Never had the tuna tataki there or a salad - usually stick with meat / seafood tower / lobster mashed potatoes / brussel sprouts
Based on the price not sure if we will be in a hurry to go back anytime soon though
I havent been (but mean to go soon) to Shinbay, i think for the OP if they are looking for fresh seafood that might be the place to go as i believe they fly in their seafood daily
re: KAYLO
That has been our experience on three occasions, though some time in the past.
Lovely venue, and gets a ton of love on this board, but unless I could not get out of the invitation, would never dine there again.
Same for a few other "sacred cows" around these parts. After 3-5 attempts, that is the end - unless I cannot duck out.
PS - I have had similar experiences at "favorite restaurants" on other boards. I just do not get it.
I have tried RA, the salt cellar, ocean's club, red lobster, pearl, and I forget the name of it but the seadfood place at The W hotel. I'm originally from Washington State and could get seafood fresh off the docks.I know I can't get that here but I was hoping for something close! Thanks for everyone's input.
re: cooleyak
A danieli10 states below, we don't really have seafood specific restaurants.
For sushi, Hana is my go-to place (and one of the very few places I'll eat sushi at in Phx). It's a BYOB establishment.
For Mexican seafood, I like Playa de Hermosa, although there are a handful of other acceptable Mexican seafood restaurants on 16th street in it's vicinity.
For Chinese seafood, I go to Great Wall. They have live seafood tanks and food quality is comparable to many Chinatown restaurants on the west coast.
Pappadeaux is a cajun chain restaurant, but is seafood centric. Very consistent and good food.

re: fledflew
I'm a huge fan of Hana too. Just had another great meal there over the weekend. Ankimo, scallops, aji/mackerel with the crispy bones, uni shooters with quail egg, ponzu, and caviar, walu, wild salmon, seabass, blue snapper, and ahi sashimi, and a delicious special of Gyuniku tempura - marinated thin-sliced ribeye rolled around daikon and red cabbage in a tempura batter with ginger, scallions, garlic chips, and tataki sauce.

re: danieli10
There are other sushi places I want to get to, especially Hiro, and I can't wait to try Shinbay, but it's so hard to tear ourselves away from Hana. I especially love the family that owns and runs it.
re: fledflew
Went to Hana last night
It was a very relaxed friendly atmosphere and the sushi was very good
had: spicy tuna - spider roll - eel unagi - scallop dynomite
I generally do not like Soft Shell Crab but it is Mrs Dapuma's fav so we always get it, she usually finishes off that roll herself - however their spider roll changed my opinion
It was very meaty and delicious and it was the best thing we tried there that night IMO (and the presentation was very cool)
Thought it was better than sushi broker across the board and i have a soft spot for them because i lived so close to there when i first moved to PHX
Will def be back to try more stuff at Hana
Also what is really cool is that they are byob and no corkage and they have a cooler to throw your beer / sake in to keep it cold
re: danieli10
I have had the same experiences, though not necessarily only in ethno-centric restaurants. We have had great seafood dishes in many "non-seafood" restaurants around town.
Heck, best sushi and also tempura, that we have ever had, was in Denver, CO - even farther from any ocean, than Phoenix.
re: Bill Hunt
Cask 63 @ Gainey Ranch in Scottsdale has some wonderfully prepared seafood items. The preparations are really beautiful. Chef Brian Feirstein was previously at Eddie V's.

1. Get your hair color right. Mena sure did! What a gorgeous beige blonde. It complements her skin tone nicely AND it looks natural, thanks to those subtle, far-from-ombre roots—a must for a believably color-treated mane.
2. Know where to draw the line. A good rule of thumb for a deep side part: pretend there's an invisible vertical line coming up out of your eyebrow, right where the arch is. That's where your should make your part. Got a fine-toothed comb with a long, skinny handle? Perfect—that's your parting tool!
3. Shine it up. Careful, though—unless your hair is thick and plentiful, a little shine product goes a long way, particularly in the case of a hair oil. For just about any hair type, I recommend Alterna Bamboo Smooth Kendi Dry Oil Mist, as it provides the gorgeous luster its more traditional counterparts do, but won't make your hair look stringy, even if it's on the fine side.
4. Do a little coaxing. You WILL need to finish this look with some hairspray. What you DON'T want is "helmet head" of any kind. Hair should never be crispy! For staying power, a trick of the trade: start on your hair before you do your makeup. After you make your side part, secure the side that isn't going behind your ear with a bobby pin—just tuck a little piece of tissue in between your strands and the bobby pin so that you don't get any un-cute indentations. By the time you're done with your makeup, your hair should be "used" to the deep side part, meaning just a little hairspray will do the trick once you remove the bobby pin.
5. Don't forget the brows! Dramatic looks like the deep side part draw attention to your bone structure—and your brows will make or break that! Make sure they're clean but not overtweezed, and fill them in if need be.
Any other hairstyles you've seen around that you'd like to know more about? Leave a comment and ask us! If one of us doesn't know how to do it, one of our amazing panelists most certainly will!

Bluenanza tips off 2010-11 basketball season
Requires Adobe Flash
Friday, October 22, 2010
Fan appreciation event features scrimmages, dunk contest, giveaways
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Oct. 21, 2010)
The ETSU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics and the Buccaneer Athletic Scholarship Association hosted the third annual "Bluenanza" Thursday evening inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center, officially tipping off the 2010-11 men's and women's basketball season.
The event, sponsored by Johnson City Honda, gave approximately 1,500 fans a chance to get an early glimpse of this season's Buccaneer men's and women's basketball teams. With five championships between them over the last three seasons (two for the men and three for the women), expectations and excitement are high coming into the year.
"This is a great way for us to start the season," said ETSU men's head coach
Murry Bartow
. "It shows our appreciation to the fans, and gives both teams a chance to relax and put on a good show for those that are here."
Both teams played well in their 10-minute scrimmage contests, with junior
Natalie Pickwell
(Kingsport) winning the 3-point shooting contest and retaining that honor for the women's program, and senior
Justin Tubbs
(Trussville, Ala.) collected his second slam dunk win.
The Lady Bucs open play Monday, Nov. 1, with a preseason game against Tusculum at 7 p.m. inside the Dome. The Bucs will open the following evening on Tuesday, Nov. 2, when they host Carson Newman at 7 p.m.

Who doesn't love the Fourth of July? It's a weekend for block parties, barbeques, belly-flops in the pool and parades—all best when enjoyed with friends and family, and even better when you have the day off to celebrate with your pets! Have fun, but remember that certain traditional Independence Day activities might not be so fun, or so healthy, for the four-legged members of your household: yes, we're talking about fireworks.
Fireworks are loud, and the crowds that go to see them can be scary, too. Animal shelters nationwide are flooded with runaway pets on the Fourth; studies show that nearly one in five lost pets went missing because they were fleeing the sound of fireworks or other loud noises. Losing a pet is not only heartbreaking, it's also very dangerous for the animal, especially if he or she ends up roaming busy streets.
The best way to keep your pets safe is to make sure they don't go missing in the first place: Please resist the urge to take your pets to go see fireworks. Instead, keep them safe from the noise in a quiet, sheltered and escape-proof area at home. Double check leashes and collars and make sure your pet's ID tag is up to date. Be mindful when opening outside doors. And if the unthinkable does happen, the ASPCA's new app is here to help: Utilizing the latest field research, this free tool provides users with an individual search plan based on their pet's behavior and individual circumstances so they can search quickly and effectively to recover their lost pet.
Please read the rest of our advice for a safe and festive Fourth!

With just a few days left in June, Adopt a Shelter Cat Month is drawing to a close. Great news: It's not too late to participate in this initiative to find homes for homeless cats nationwide! If you've considered adding a cat to your family, this weekend is the perfect time to head to your local shelter and meet your feline match. You can use our shelter database to find adoptable cats in your area.
If you're in the New York City area, we've got a few cute cats at the ASPCA Adoption Center that we'd like to bring to your attention:
Gus: This sweet, sensitive cat might be a little shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he loves plenty of gentle attention. Gus would do best in a quiet home with an experienced adopter and teens 14-and-up. He'd love to be the only cat in your household. Visit Gus's page to view more pictures and an adorable video.
Snowy: Friendly but shy, Snowy enjoys spending time with her favorite people. She might keep to herself most of the time, but she'll come around for her favorite activity—playtime! Snowy loves to play with string toys. She'd like to join a quiet household with kids 10-and-up.
Alicia: Alicia is a friendly, affectionate cat. Our staff believes Alicia may have suffered head trauma as a kitten, so she may occasionally become disoriented. Once Alicia settles in, she loves playtime—especially with string toys. She'd also enjoy curling up next to you on the couch.
These three kitties, plus many more, are waiting to find loving homes. If you're able, we hope you'll consider adopting a cat this weekend. Thanks for helping us celebrate shelter cats all year long!

As the nation's second-largest animal welfare grantmaker, the ASPCA is constantly on the lookout for innovative, inspiring, and admirable programs that can benefit from our support. When we first heard about our latest grantee, Operation Blankets of Love, we knew we had found one such program.
Based in Los Angeles, Operation Blankets of Love (OBOL) is a grassroots organization that connects human services to animal welfare in a very unique way. Recognizing that many homeless people have the same love, dedication, and commitment to their pets' well-being as more fortunate people do, OBOL's current project—Homeless People's Pets Community Outreach Project—will provided critical services to homeless people and their pets who are living in shelters or on the streets of L.A.
"Our program's primary goal is to provide basic supplies and services to keep pets of the homeless happy and healthy, so that they can stay with their loving human companions rather than being relinquished to crowded city and county animals shelters with high euthanasia rates," says Eileen Smulson, Founder & President of OBOL.
Tessa Madden, Development Coordinator at PATH (People Assisting the Homeless) has worked with Operation Blankets of Love for over three years. "They actively donate care, comfort and pet items that the residents need for their pets," she says. "This includes necessary pet items they need to keep their dog or cat healthy and happy—food, treats, pet beds, blankets, towels, leashes, collars, toys, grooming supplies, and more." In addition to these comfort/care items, OBOL also raises funds to provide spay and neuter surgeries for animals in need.
An ASPCA grant of $5,000 will help OBOL deliver needed items and resources to pet families living at eight shelters and social service centers or on the street, and in collaboration with organizations serving the homeless. While OBOL is able to procure much of their supplies through generous in-kind donations from corporations, foundations, and the public, the ASPCA grant will help defray delivery, transportation, and other operational costs to get the pet food and comfort/care items to where they're needed most.
Operation Blankets of Love's compassionate program is perfectly aligned with the ASPCA's new commitment to animals in the city of Los Angeles. We are proud to help OBOL make a difference in countless lives—both animal and human—through this program.
For updates on this grant, and for more information about our grant program, please visit ASPCA Grants.
As many of you know, the ASPCA has been fighting through our Truth About Chicken campaign to improve the lives of chickens raised for meat. We want to make sure that you've seen CNN®'s report airing new footage released by the animal advocacy group Compassion Over Killing® (COK) from their recent investigation* on a chicken factory farm that supplies Pilgrim's Pride Corporation®—the second-largest chicken producer in the world. Below is an excerpt from COK's footage:
This rare look inside an industrial chicken farm reveals common living conditions for chickens raised for meat. Tens of thousands of chickens are kept in lightless sheds and bred for growth rates that cause lameness and open sores, injuries which could pose potential food safety risks by acting as gateways to infection. Some chickens are shown with ammonia burns as a result of lying in their own waste. Other birds are too lame or deformed to walk. This investigation also exposed the suffering of sick and dying chickens who were thrown across the sheds and buried alive in pits under the carcasses of other chickens.
It doesn't have to be this way. The ASPCA's Truth About Chicken campaign is calling on the chicken industry to significantly improve the lives of these animals and potentially reduce the incidence of foodborne illness for consumers by raising slower-growing chickens in better living conditions. To learn more and take action to help chickens, visit TruthAboutChicken.org today.
Please help us spread the word by sharing this blog and video with your friends on Twitter and Facebook.
*The ASPCA provided grant funding for this investigation as part of our commitment to improving the lives of chickens raised for meat and in line with our belief that transparency on industrial farms will result in a shift toward more humane practices.
We are super excited to announce the launch of our latest mobile app for pet parents. The free app offers customized step-by-step instructions to find missing pets, expert advice on protecting pets before and during natural disasters, and a place to safely store and update pets' medical records. It's a handy tool to help pet parents make smart choices when those decisions matter most.
Plus, the app is totally free, and owners of iPhone and Android-platform phones can download it right now!
With the ASPCA mobile app, you can:
- Receive a personalized missing pet recovery kit, including step-by-step instructions on how to search for a lost animal in a variety of circumstances.
- Build a lost pet digital flyer that can be shared instantly on your social media channels.
- Store and manage your pet's health records.
- Get the latest and most relevant news about pets and animal welfare.
- See adorable pet photos from Instagram.

"Politics is the Art of Looking for Trouble, Finding it Everywhere, Diagnosing it Incorrectly, and Applying the Wrong Remedies"
Coming to a city near you soon. Be prepared.
Totally deserves that Nobel Peace prize...
Domestic drones are coming, too. I'm sure there's nothing to worry about because they'd never misuse them, but just a heads up.
http://www.aclu.org/blog/tag/domestic-dronesU.S. law enforcement is greatly expanding its use of domestic drones for surveillance. Routine aerial surveillance would profoundly change the character of public life in America. Rules must be put in place to ensure that we can enjoy the benefits of this new technology without bringing us closer to a surveillance society in which our every move is monitored, tracked, recorded, and scrutinized by the government.
Yes, they are putting in a manned surveylance system in dayton Ohio that will cover 15 miles from the center of town.
Luckily my hosue is about 30 miles from downtown Dayton. But they could expand the program at alater date,
Scary stuff.

The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
In this paper, Venema tells the story of his transition from support of Intelligent Design to the view that God uses evolution as a creative mechanism.
This article is a comprehensive study of the views of Christian author and apologist C. S. Lewis on the theory of evolution and the argument from intelligent design. It explains how he would distinguish expressly philosophical arguments for a Transcendent Mind from the current claims of the intelligent design (ID) movement to provide scientific evidence for such a reality.
In this paper, adapted from an article from Science & Christian Belief, Dr. Oliver R. Barclay compares and contrasts the biblical view of design in nature with modern design arguments.
In this paper, Venema explores several examples in biology where random mutation and natural selection have indeed led to substantial increases in biological information. The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an "enigma", is one of great interest to biologists.
Polkinghorne discusses the origins and aims of natural theology in this series. It does not offer truth, but rather a "best explanation" for the world, answering primarily meta-questions. Two such questions asked by Polkinghorne are, "Why is science possible at all?" and "What makes the universe so special?" To explore the answers, he looks at the ability of human minds to penetrate mysteries of the natural world as well as the fine-tuning of the universe necessary to produce the fruitfulness of life.

It was a WILD ride! After shocking the hockey world with a first-round sweep of the defending Stanley Cup Champion Detroit Red Wings, the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim became the Cinderella story of 2003, and did not disappoint. Next up was the Dallas Stars...goodbye! Then it was the Minnesota Wild...see ya! Then, with a 5-2 victory on home ice in Game 6 against the New Jersey Devils, it was a chance to win Game 7 on the road and take home the cup. Incredible!
We know that victory in the New Jersey swamp was not in the cards, but no long-suffering Ducks fan was disappointed for long. With the thrill ride they lived through in April, May and June, and the emergence of Jean-Sebastien Giguere as the Conn Smythe winner and league goaltending superstar, every fan will remember the great playoff run of 2003 with a big smile. With this poster, you are transported back to glorious Game 6, when a dominating performance led everyone to think that maybe, just maybe, the team could really do it all. Like all prints in photographer Rob Arra's Everlasting Images series, every single detail is in perfect focus, and as you pan across the image you feel like you are actually there! You can read the scoreboard, view the video screens, see the fans in the stands, the banners in the rafters, and see all the action on the ice, as the Ducks hold a 3-1 lead with 8:00 left to go in the second period. This is a long-awaited panorama for fans of the Ducks, and it won't disappoint! It is a true work of art, worthy of a nice frame and a prominent space on your wall.

Felipe Massa was disappointed as once again "another car" and another crash brought an early end to his grand prix Sunday, this time he says Kevin Magnussen was to blame.
Fighting for position at the start, Massa, who had the outside line, and Magnussen, who was inside, collided at the first corner of the German GP.
The impact flipped Massa's Williams onto its side, sending up sparks as it slid across the run-off area before landing on all four wheels.
The Brazilian was not hurt.
"I'm okay," he said. "Definitely the accident was more scary watching than being inside.
"But I'm fine and that's important."
He was, however, very disappointed as yet again a race ended with a crash.
"I'm so disappointed.
"It's another race and another car that has pushed me out and finished my race.
"With a car that that is very competitive and fast that's so disappointing."
The stewards deemed the accident to be a racing incident, however, Massa believes the blame belongs solely on Magnussen's shoulders.
He added: "Definitely I was in front. I was doing the corner in front of him.
"Normally the car behind should brake, it's a corner that you cannot get two cars in the corner."

I was listening to "Four Simple Words" by Frank Turner today and one phrase really jumped out at me. (Frank plays what I would call "Folk Punk" which is right in my wheelhouse as my friend from New Jersey likes to say.) Anyway, the lines I'm referring to are:
Somebody told me that music with guitars
was going out of fashion and I had to laugh.
This sh!t wasn't fashionable when I fell in love.
How many times have we heard that guitar-oriented music was dying? Disco was killing it, techno was killing it, American Idol is killing it, etc. Young men and women all over the world will continue to feel a burning inside their hearts and they will continue to pick up guitars looking for an outlet for their creativity, pain, happiness, awkwardness, sorrow, love, hate and every other emotion known to mankind. Speaking through music is a universal truth and what instrument is more accessible and portable than a guitar? Many contenders will step into the ring, but all fill eventual fall by the hand of the king, the guitar. Thoughts?

3 large
skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1/2-inch medallions
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup
all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons
vegetable oil, or as needed
1 clove
garlic, minced
1 cup
low sodium chicken broth
lemon, thinly sliced
1/4 cup
fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons
capers, drained and rinsed
3 tablespoons
2 tablespoons
minced Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
OMG, this is exactly what I was looking for. It's restaurant quality. The sauce is SO SO good and I think adding the lemon slices early on really makes it POP like you suggested with a beautiful fragrance and taste. My family was very impressed. UPDATE: Made this for my husband's business client and he asked for the recipe to take home. Also, someone said they thought the sauce was too acidic.. adding lemon slices in at the end only heightens the acidity, not tempers it. I happen to love the taste of lemon like this, but that's just me. Try adding some white wine to the first reduction, then add the chicken broth and go from there. That might help.
Wow, I do not know what I did wrong? I love chicken piccata. I followed the recipe exactly. But, the sauce was so bitter!!! Maybe, the lemons I used were the problem? I loved the cooked chicken before adding the sauce. It was both tender and crispy. I tried to fix the sauce by removing the lemon slices and adding white wine and a little extra butter. I served with rice and the person I ate dinner with ate all of theirs, but I couldn't get over the bitter bite still lingering. Although, he did not seem to notice for some reason. Make sure you use really fresh lemons! I believe that could have been the issue, but not sure? Great sauted chicken either way.

When I make this recipe, I use Italian flavored bread crumbs, instead of flour, to dredge the chicken. Also pound the chicken breasts out a little so they cook faster. I use white wine instead of chicken broth for the sauce. This sauce really requires some tasting to check for tartness as it reduces. If it's too tart, add a small amount of sugar starting with a tsp. Chicken Picata is probably my favorite chicken dish and it's truly elegant and 'company' worthy.
This dish is superb. Very light, low fat and the sauce has a lemon infusion that is simple, yet elegant. The lemon slices really do make a difference. Be sure you're adding them early or your sauce could be a bit more bitter. The oil from the rind of the lemon adds a tremendous lemony lift! I am adding this dish as an option to my menu for my clients. They'd pay good money for this. I agree with the others - it is definitely restaurant quality right at home!
The reason that this might taste bitter is because the white pith of the lemon when simmered becomes very bitter. You could just use a vegetable peeler and peel off just the yellow of the lemon
I have not made this yet.....some quick thoughts. To stop the bitterness do not add the lemon slices to cook with the sauce, use lemon zest and finish with the butter, the white pith is what is making it bitter. Add lemon slice when serving. I also am going to try grilling the chicken and making just a quick lemon pan sauce with shallots, white wine, perhaps a riesling or pinot grigo and garlic, however; no chicken broth. I would not cut into medallions leave in breasts in tact. To thicken maybe a little cornstarch and water if necessary. I will let you know how it turns out.
After making this, the grilling part probably not needed, pan frying would have been fine. The sauce I made was great only wish it had made more. Cornstarch not necessary. But a great recipe!
Perfect. Well, almost. I pounded the chicken breast first; really makes it tender. It takes less time to cook, so it doesn't get tougher and drier on the outside...
excellent. Very light even with the butter at the end. No bitterness from the lemon slices because I took them out after the first 7 mins of boiling.

I built this bed over a year ago. I used 14G for the tool boxes, 1/8'' deckplate for the floor, and 3/16'' for the workbench. mounted just under the bench is receiver tube so I can put the vice on and off. I lost the pic that shows the rear of the bed, but I have a 5hp gas air compressor mounted in it. The welder is a Miller trailblazer 280. I could only work on it part time, so it took me about 2 years to finish.

Hey, nice looking work there! I have a question... how do you get to the oil drain and filter to do a service on the Trailblazer? I thought of mounting mine the way you did, but I wanted access for doing a service easily. Mine is mounted on the rear of the flatbed, centered and facing rearward.

Hi chaikwa, Thank you for the compliment. On the oil drain I use a hose that is 24'' long. I can reach the drain and the oil filter from reaching over the top. It is a tight squeeze, but not to bad.
service truck - welder oil change
Hi Chaikwa and trevwelder,
If your welder/generator has a Kohler engine, Miller offers a remote oil drain and filter kit so you can change oil when the machine is mounted close to the cab of a truck. It remotes the filter and drain to the rear panel of the machine.
You can check it out at www.Millerwelds.com/truck. That web site is dedicated to truck applications.
Trevwelder, your truck does look nice.

Im trying to pack an Executable using an Exe Packer like UPX.I packed and checked the File with VirusTotal.com.Here some 9 Antivirus Products say its a Virus actually its a harmless exe.I think the AV Engines which are bases on Ikarus has problems like this.

I believe some of them will label it as a virus because they can potentially be "decompression bombs" also known as a "zip bomb" which will overload memory when trying to be unpacked. It may not be true that it is a decompression bomb but Avast says that it hard to detected resulting in some false positives.
Kaspersky and Nod32 have unpackers for them. Some other are just lazy to do so and insted they lable it as a hack tool. You can try diffrent packers that they don't detect or just rar your exe instead.

Student Farm Introductory Tour
May 11
Bowley Center, UC Davis
Did you know the UC Davis Student Farm offers opportunities for a wide range of hands-on experiences in sustainable agriculture, organic crop production, ecological gardening, environmental education, vineyard care, field and machinery operations and maintenance, and others? Students can be involved in a variety of ways, including as volunteers, by taking classes, and as interns earning academic credit. Internship opportunities are both for those who want an overall introduction to farming/gardening or they can be specialized for students who have completed a general internship and would like to dive deeper into a particular aspect of the Student Farm's management (see list of available internships below). Now is a great time to learn more and start planning how you can be involved! No prior experience is necessary for several learning opportunities.
All tours start from the north entrance to the Bowley Center. See "BC" on map.
Can't make one of these times, but still want more information? Feel free to contact Mark Van Horn or Stacey Parker, or visit the Student Farm website.
