Jefferson Airplane was an American rock band formed in San Francisco in 1965. A pioneer of the psychedelic rock movement, Jefferson Airplane was the first band from the San Francisco scene to achieve mainstream commercial and critical success. The band performed at the three most famous American rock festivals of the 1960sâ[][]Monterey (1967), Woodstock (1969) and Altamont (1969)â[][]as well as headlining the first Isle of Wight Festival. Their recordings were internationally successful, and they scored two US Top 10 hit singles and a string of Top 20 albums. Their 1967 record Surrealistic Pillow is regarded as one of the key recordings of the so-called Summer of Love and brought the group international recognition. Two chart hits from the album, "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit", are listed in Rolling Stone''s "500 Greatest Songs of All Time". Successor bands to Jefferson Airplane include Jefferson Starship and Starship; spinoffs include Hot Tuna and KBC Band. Jefferson Airplane was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.

Interpretive Handbook
8521 :
Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA), Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a glycoprotein normally found in embryonic entodermal epithelium.
Increased levels may be found in patients with primary colorectal cancer or other malignancies including medullary thyroid carcinoma and breast, gastrointestinal tract, liver, lung, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostatic cancers.
Serial monitoring of CEA should begin prior to therapy to verify post therapy decrease in concentration and to establish a baseline for evaluating possible recurrence. Levels generally return to normal within 1 to 4 months after removal of cancerous tissue.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Monitoring colorectal cancer and selected other cancers such as medullary thyroid carcinoma
May be useful in assessing the effectiveness of chemotherapy or radiation treatment
Carcinoembryonic antigen levels are not useful in screening the general population for undetected cancers.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Grossly elevated carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) concentrations (>20 ng/mL) in a patient with compatible symptoms are strongly suggestive of the presence of cancer and also suggest metastasis.
Most healthy subjects (97%) have values < or =3.0 ng/mL.
After removal of a colorectal tumor, the serum CEA concentration should return to normal by 6 weeks, unless there is residual tumor.
Increases in test values over time in a patient with a history of cancer suggest tumor recurrence.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
The concentration of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in serum should not be used to screen asymptomatic individuals for neoplastic disease, and the diagnostic efficacy of CEA measurements in high-risk groups has not been established.
Single values of CEA are less informative than changes assessed over time.
CEA values are method-dependent; therefore, the same method should be used to serially monitor patients.
Do not interpret serum CEA levels as absolute evidence of the presence or the absence of malignant disease. Use serum CEA in conjunction with information from the clinical evaluation of the patient and other diagnostic procedures.
Some patients who have been exposed to animal antigens, either in the environment or as part of treatment or imaging procedures, may have circulating antianimal antibodies present. These antibodies may interfere with the assay reagents to produce unreliable results.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Nonsmokers: < or =3.0 ng/mL
Some smokers may have elevated CEA, usually <5.0 ng/mL.
Serum markers are not specific for malignancy, and values may vary by method.
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Costlier than gold: the Périgord truffle of France and the white Alba truffle of the Piedmont, in Italy. Photos by Kelly Cline | IST.

Truffles: An Overview & Glossary
Black Périgord Truffles and White Alba Truffles Are Two Of Life's Great Luxuries
Page 1: What Is A Truffle
Because they can't be seen attached to the trees' roots, truffles need to be sniffed out. That's why truffle-hunting pigs were used for many years to find them: The human nose isn't sensitive enough to find them under the earth. But because the pigs were too prone to eating the delectable truffles once they found them, they were replaced by dogs, who are less greedy and easier to restrain. If you have neither pig nor trained dog, you can wander the woods with a sapin (the special pickaxe-spade used for digging truffles) and learn to identify the Suillia fly, an insect that likes to lay its eggs above truffles. Look for the fly homing in close to the ground, and start digging. If you're in Périgord, look for a dark patch around the tree (called brulée, burned, in French). This is a protective antibiotic drenching the soil, thrown off by Tuber melanosporum, the black Périgord truffle, underneath.

*Red oak (Quercus robur), holly oak (Quercus ilex) and pubescent oak (Quercus pubescens).
The fine truffle industry is in the midst of an historic crisis. Total annual European production has fallen from 2,000 tonnes at the end of the 19th century to just 60 tonnes in the 2008-2009 season. The decline is based on unkempt woods, a result of the population exodus from the countryside (truffles need a light, airy environment) and on global warming, which has upset the balance of sun and rain.
If the trend continues, specialists warn that French truffles could disappear altogether. Recent research Italian researchers has revealed that truffles are born of a meeting of male and female spores. While this may seem a no-brainer to the casual reader, it is actually a revelation that could help to bring about a revival of production after 100 years of decline, explaining why some mychorized trees (those which have been specially treated at the roots with the hopes of growing truffles) don't produce results.†

Ana recovered from a 6-3, 5-2 deficit against world No.60 Ayumi Morita in the first round of the PTT Pattaya Open in Thailand, levelling the match at one set all before rain suspended play overnight.
Ana served five double faults during a miserable opening set and looked on her way home when trailing 6-3, 5.2. Morita, on the other hand, performed at a very high level.
However, she found some form just in time and reeled off five straight games to level the match.
All three games in the deciding set went with serve before rain halted play.
The match will resume on Wednesday sometime after 5.30pm local time (11.30am Central European Time; 5.30am Eastern Time) with Ana to serve; Morita leads 6-3, 5-7, 2-1.

How Does it Work?
CERVIRITE is a unique Ayurvedic supplement which can effectively tackle neck pain, back pain, tingling, stiffness and numbness in its users. Neck pain and back can occur due to a variety of reasons like poor posture, poor sleeping habits, wrong ergonomics, overuse injuries, muscular strain, herniated discs, sciatica, fibromyalgia, spinal stenosis or even osteoporosis. CERVIRITE offers tremendous relief from the para-vertebral muscular spasms and thereby alleviates the pain.
Ingredients of CERVIRITE and their actions:
- Sesame oil (Oil ofSesamum indicum )
- Dashamoolam (10 herbs)
- Ksira (Milk)
- Bala (Sida Cordifolia)
- Madhura Ghana
- Amrutha (Tinosporia Cordifolia)
- Shankhapushpi (Convolvulus Pluricalis)
- Bala and Bilwa (Aegle Marmelos)
- Yava (Hordeum vulgare)
- Devadaru (Cedrus Deodora)
- Sarala (Pinus Longifolia)
(Each Softgel has 625 mg of Sesame oil medicated with 25 herbs)
Sesame oil which is base of the product is the most important components in the treatment of diseases of Vata and has the ability to strengthen and prevent degeneration of bones & cartilages. It also helps in relieving muscular spasms. Sesame oil adopts the medicinal properties of the herbs with which it is medicated. Hence CERVIRITE is prepared by medicating sesame oil with herbs which are renowned in the treatment of diseases due to Vata ( Degenerative conditions ) and with milk (Ksira)
Dashmoolam present in CERVIRITE ( The ten roots ) are among the most widely used herbs in the treatment of all diseases of Vata. They are also specifically nervine tonics.
Yava (Hordeum vulgare) , Kola (Zizyphus jujuba) & Kultha (Dolichos biflorus) are very effective as anti-spasmodics. They are also effective externally as poultices to relieve pain and rigidity.
Bala(Sida Cordifolia) is one of the most powerful nervine tonics and it is also very helpful in strengthening the muscles and tendons. It is also an analgesic.
The Madhura Ghanais a group of herbs, specifically useful for rejuvenation of tissues. These herbs help to rejuvenate and re-hydrate the inter-vertebral disks when used in combination with sesame oil.
Bala and Bilwa (Aegle Marmelos, one of the ten roots) and Ashwagandha ( part of Madhura gana) have analgesic action and help to relieve the pain associated with nerve root compression.
Devadaru (Cedrus Deodora) & Sarala (Pinus Longifolia) are anti-spasmodics and help to relieve local pain due to para-vertebral muscle spasm.
Amrutha (Tinosporia Cordifolia), Madhuka and Manjishta (Rubia Cordifolia) are renowned anti-inflammatory herbs and they help to overcome the associated inflammation in acute conditions.
Ksira (Milk) is renowned as a tonic for the skeleto-muscular and nervous systems, the seats of Vata.
Shankhapushpi (Convolvulus Pluricalis) and Pushkarmoolam (Inula Racemosa) provides relief in stress, anxiety and tension associated with these conditions.
The other ingredients in combination with the herbs help to enhance their action, reduce possible ill-effects and, balance the formula for the use of people with different constitutions.
Benefits of CERVIRITE
Relief from:
- Cervical
- Fibromyalgia
- Neckpain and upper back Pain
- Lack of sensation or numbness
- Herniatedinter-vertebral discs
- Vertebral and skeleto-muscular problems
CERVIRITE also serves to alleviate pain from the para vertebral muscular spasms. The regularuse of CERVITRITE reduces the chances of disc herniation, and also retards the spondylotic changes caused by aging.
Ailments Addressed
* Spondylitis
Spondylitis is a term related to the "wear andtear" of the body which occurs more commonly in old age. Spondylitis isa progressive condition that occurs due to the inflammation of the vertebra.This causes pain and stiffness around the cervical region of the neck, shoulderand lower spine. One distinct feature of Spondylitis is a stinging pain thatflows down towards the lower back and upper buttock area. Ankylosing spondylitis is an arthritic condition that affects thespine. It is also a systemic disease that can affect other tissues throughoutthe body and cause injury and pain in the other areas as well.
* Cervical Spondylosis (Arthritis of the Neck)
Spondylosis is the degeneration of the vertebrae. Headachewith neck and shoulder pain is a common indication of Cervical Spondylosis. Thewearing of the cartilage results in the rubbing of bones against each other.With this going on, the body responds by growing new bones for vertebral support. These new abnormal growths are called "spurs" (Osteophytes).But they constrict the space of the nerves to pass through and causecompression. This condition is called SpinalStenosis.
People with long backs and thick neck or those with ahump at the back are also seen to develop Cervical Spondylosis at a laterstage. Apart from pain, Spondylosis patients may also suffer from numbness orloss of sensation, loss of balance and tinnitus (ringing in the ears).Unfortunately, a good 85% of the population gets affected by this condition asthey cross their 60s. Out of this, women are of a higher proportion.
Though surgery is one of the treatment modalities,lifestyle modifications can help to reduce pain and give the patient a betterquality of life.
* Fibromyalgia and Myo-fascial Pain
These are conditions characterized by pain in the muscles in different points of thebody. These conditions are associated with morning stiffness, disturbed sleep,and a feeling of swelling. The sufferer has clear trigger points which aretender and when palpated produce the typical pain. Both are syndromes (a groupof symptoms) and not a disease. While they are not dangerous, they can hamperthe quality of life in the sufferer.
* Herniated Disc
In some people, symptoms like severe back pain, leg pain, or weakness of the lowerextremity muscles are traced to a herniated disc. When the cushion that sitsbetween the spinal vertebra is pushed outside its normal position, you have aherniated disc. This can occur as a result of rupture or bulging due to injury,disease, or deterioration. The spinal disc when pushed out irritates the spinalnerves that lay very close to the edge of these spinal discs causing severepain.
The spinal disc is but a soft cushion that sits between each vertebra of thespine. They act as shock absorbers giving the spine both rigidity and theneeded flexibility. The spinal disc becomes more rigid with age. In a youngindividual, the disc is soft and elastic, but the disc gradually loses itselasticity as he or she ages and becomes more vulnerable to injury.
Herniated disc can occur to anyone. It is, however, seen more commonly in people between theages of 35 to 45 who perform heavy manual labour or drive motor vehicles forlong periods of time. The non-surgical treatment of herniated discincludes pain killers, anti-inflammatory, rest and recommended exercises. Ifthe condition does not improve or worsens with treatment, surgery is the only refuge.
Treatment Options
Allopathy treats these conditions with pain killers and fails to address the root of the problem.Consumption of pain killers can interfere with different physiological processes. When stopped suddenly these drugs can cause severe health issues like digestive problems, depression and metabolic changes in the user.
Massage, stretching exercises and therapy cannot yield sustained relief.
Ayurvedic Treatment
Ayurveda sees back pain as a vitiation of Vata. Vata is one of the three doshas or body constitutions in the ancient science of Ayurveda. In Ayurveda, there is no pain without Vata. And this holistic approach concentrates on pacifying the vitiated Dosha for pain relief and for the rejuvenation of the affected tissues.
Ayurveda does not suppress the problem but addresses it and eradicates it from the root level. Hence, the treatment is a combination of medications, diet modifications, exercise and yoga. The treatment of cervical spondylosis and herniated disc comprises of the use of herbal formulations to arrest the degenerative process.
Recommended Lifestyle Changes
If you have chronic back pain or neck pain:
- Avoid sour, high salty and sugary foods, drinks, deep fried foods, maida (milled wheat flour), rawa (semolina), pulses and various by-products of pulses.
- Include vegetables like bitter gourd, drumstick and neem flowers in the diet.
- Choose wheat as opposed to rice.
- Add more fibre and water. Constipation will worsen the condition.
- Avoid exposure to cold climate, cold foods and cold bath.
- Avoid vigorous activities. Embrace yoga and light exercise.
Usage Instructions
CERVIRITE is a blissful blend of 25 unique herbs to pacify Vata Dosha and tackle your back pain naturally.
Dosage: 1 to 2 Softgels thrice a day, after meal, with water.

After the heavy, funny, and ultimately depressing book The Information by Martin Amis, I decided to read something a little lighter. And so last Tuesday I started reading this book. It consists of both the original Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion. In five days, I completed the first book and am about to start the sequel.
I have to say that the structure of the first work Hyperion, which borrows from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, was very well done. The first book presents a mystery; seven individuals are called on a pilgrimage to go and visit the Shrike, an invincible and time-altering killing machine, to present their requests- one will survive and have his/her request granted and the rest will be impaled on a gigantic metal thorn tree.
I am by no means a science fiction fan. Most of the genre seems so convoluted and dreamy that I simply cannot relate to it, but this book presents the story in a very reachable fashion--by not focusing on the technology and instead focusing on the humanity of both the people and the artificially intelligent.
Tonight I will start the second part, but I wanted to start a thread and recommend it for those who haven't read it. I'll follow up with my impressions on the conclusion.

A little info to go by before you here my problem:
I worked building street/strip cars for a East Coast Company about 4 years ago before enlisting into the Marines. In that I got 5 years of welding under my belt in MIG and TIG. I was welding everything from Stainless up to aluminum and mag once and awhile for slight repairs. I never had to worry about what i needed cause the shop had 4 mig millermatics and 3 syncrowaves that where probably a good 7+ years from the looks of them. They were awesome and worked great and now i feel it is time to buy something that can do almost what i was doing then. I plan on taking on some hot rod projects which will ocassionly get me welding at the most 1/4" steel for short period of time maybe 10 minutes at once before taking breaks. aluminum probably not more that 3/16" and that would be a rare case. so the average will be .125 walled tubing that will need both cosmetic tig welds and quick strong welds MIG style for frame mods. i want the ability to have both mig and tig at my fingertips but the projects are not going to be all that industrial (everyday). Its more for hobbies until i get a chance to do side jobs for some money. I want the ability to weld aluminum, chromemoly, and stainless. I am wondering if the Shopmate wpould be able to handle the weekend hobbyist that will get on a mission when it comes to race cars and street rods. My space is limited and are those multi-process machine worth it? I appreciate the help and I am trying to decide what I am going to get with my re-enlistment bonus after I get back from the sandbox. im looking to spend at most 5,000. Semper Fi

If it were my money, in a shop setting (non-portable) i would get an MM212 for MIG, and a DYN 200 for TIG. You get all the alluminum bells and whistles with the dyn + you can get a spool gun for the 212. If you want to keep it all compact and portable get the passport plus. You give up duty cycle and top end but i believe you can still do 1/4" steel. If your looking to save some bucks and can get by with an "old fashioned" Tig get the sync 200 and save over a grand.Dynasty 200 DX

Multiprocess has its place, but even with limited space, I'd be trying every option to have two separate machines. You can even put a really nice TIG/Stick machine on the top of a MM252 for your budget.
Having had a multi-process machine for many years I vote for process specific machines. The multi-process did an OK job no most everything I used it for but not as good a job as the machines that are specifically designed for each process. I now have an MM251 and a Dynasty 300 and have the best of both worlds. As far as room I don't think the two machines take up any more shop space than my multi-process with the large power source. Mike.
I have many machines and most multi process machines will suffer on the top end on aluminum if they offer AC at all. I agree with the others a solid millermatic 212 and a dynasty 200DX will set you up nicely. However it will be limited on the materials up to 1/4" or so. I have done that kind of work with mine and it well and when pushed really hard with preheat and running helium I did significantly heavier, but I do not recommend that as a steady diet or the machine will have serious issues.
Lincoln MP350, one stop shop.
I have several multi process and aeveral limited process setups.
One unit is a Thermal Arc 400gtsm? any way it's a mig tig stick with no AC and no hi freq. I use it remote where power is available, for stick and FCAW (LN 25)
For shop use I often find my self using both my Passport and my Dynasty on the same job. doing quick tacking with the Passport and final welding with the Dynasty.
Or when I get two guys cutting and fitting for me I can have one doing steel and one working aluminum and I am not constantly resetting the ONE machine.
Having a machine all setup ready to go just flip the switch and twist the cylinder and weld (MM210) is great for the quick in and out job.
Never fails the multi is always set up for the wrong process.

All of the AC/DC machines I have used just suck on AC. Get a D200DX and a 212 and caller done.
Really don't need to tig, but you can run Stainless tig if you desire.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - University of Louisville cornerback Adrian Bushell (DeSoto, Texas) was recognized by the Scholar-Baller program as one of 63 student-athletes to receive an Academic Momentum Award, which honors academic improvement.
Bushell, an Administration of Justice major, graduated from Louisville in December after transferring from Florida in 2010.
The product of DeSoto, Texas, earned the award because of the amount of credit hours he took over the last two years so that he could earn his degree upon completion of his athletic eligibility.
A two-year starter for the Cardinals, Bushell was a two-time first team All-BIG EAST performer. This past season, Bushell was fourth on the squad with 62 tackles and recorded a team-high 13 pass break-ups.
Bushell earned another prominent award when he was invited to participate in the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, Ind.

Oh dear...
...when I posted on Friday about paying-it-forward, I thought I might get a handful of responses wanting to play that I would pick from. I was even prepared to accept up to 5 entries to receive something handmade and to then turn around and do a PIF of your own.
Instead I got 27 responses which I think is completely awesome because it shows how generous and kind ya'll are. But do you see what I got myself into? I just couldn't pick three!
So here's what I'm thinking... I'm going to still pick 3 that I will be personally paying-it-forward to but then I'm also going to organize some sort of mass pay-it-forward effort. Think of this as the first Quilting Without Obligation Community event. :)
At the bottom of this post you can add your link. From the link list, you will make something for the person right after you and the last person will make something for the first person on the list. Make sense? In addition, you will still choose 2 others{could be other bloggers or even someone you know in real life} that you want to pay-it-forward to on your own.
If you are in, click the "add your link" button at the end of this post. Then please leave a comment letting me know you are in and make sure there is a way for me to contact you! I'll leave the link list open through Friday and then I will email out your partner's address to you over the coming weekend. You will have 365 days to complete the PIF and make three people's days unexpectedly brighter!
Anyone can sign up... no matter what your skill level is. You can make and send whatever you would like. We're not going to be snobby about it, just make sure that what you send is something that you would personally like to receive yourself... you know, it's the Golden Rule thing. ;)
And now for my 3 PIF recipients... Elisa, Jen, & Miss 376. I'll be emailing you to get your addresses!
If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment or email me. So hurry... add your link... blog about it... tell your mamma all about it... Facebook about it... Tweet it... and have a great time Paying-it-Forward!

I've read a couple of blogs that mentioned PIF, and when I read your post on friday I decided that I wouldn't leave a comment.
I decided that I would just start my own PIF once I'd finished the Bee block I have and cut out my blocks to send off.
But I've just signed up to play along and will do another PIF later in the year

A mid-winter's afternoon in the crisp Michigan cold, with a record number of fans thrilling to a classic rivalry in the great outdoors - it doesn't get any better than this! A New Year's Day tradition, the NHL scheduled its 2014 Winter Classic to feature two of the league's "Original 6" franchises at the ultimate stadium for outdoor hockey, the University of Michigan's legendary "Big House", the bowl that hosts nearly 110,000 fans at every game.
From photographer Rob Arra's legendary Everlasting Images collection, this spectacular print takes you back to that New Year's Day at Michigan Stadium that ended in an exciting Maple Leafs shootout victory, giving you a breathtaking inside view of the scene as the fireworks conclude the opening ceremonies, and the game stands ready to begin. From the sea of red and blue (representing Leafs fans in blue, Wings fans in red), to the players on the ice, to the normally-green field glowing in sparkling hockey white rather than football's gridiron, it's all here! Whether you were there in person on that wonderful winter day, are a serious Leafs or Red Wings fan, or are a lover of that legendary hockey arena called Michigan Stadium, this is for you. Complete with sharp white border, commemorative title, and official NHL and Winter Classic 2014 logos, this is both a beautiful work of photographic sports art for your wall, and a valuable collector's item for years to come. Perfect for a nice frame and a prominent place on the wall of home or office!

Cars vs. cold: Keeping you on the go
Updated: Tuesday, January 7 2014, 06:29 PM EST
By: Adam Del Rosso
Not only can the cold air take a toll on our bodies, but it can do a number to our cars as well.
If you have a garage, mechanics say it's best to use it. But if not, they say the first step is to make sure all the car's fluids, including anti-freeze and gas, are topped off.
Gene Ferguson, owner of Ferguson Tire Services, says adding an additive to your fuel tank to displace any water is important too. He says it makes sure the fuel flows naturally to the engine without the water freezing.
He adds that in cold temperatures, fluids can thicken up and take longer to move through the proper pipes. Starting your car a few minutes before driving will help, but what if the car still won't start?
"On a cold, cold day, normally you're going to expect it to be the battery. If you have another vehicle nearby, use your jumper cables to give the car a little more energy. If that starts it up, fine. Drive it. But keep in mind, if you park it and leave it then come back, it may have the same problem," he says. If that happens, then he says it may be time for a new battery.
Ferguson tells NEWS9 it may be a pain to take care of cars in the short term, but it will be worth it in the long run.
If you happen to break down on the side of a road, officials say having an emergency kit is critical. That kit can include these things and more:
- Jumper cables
- Cell phone
- Car charger for phone
- Flashlight
- Energy bars
- Blanket
- Ice scraper/brush

AMAZING!!! I have tried all kinds of drugs for lyme disease. This one is the one that works, without question. If you are having problems with whatever drug you are taking, try this, it will litterally give you your life back!! I have since relapsed, and I plan to go back on this drug. However, its the only thing I've found to be effective for Chronic Lyme. You can see a difference from week to week, one of the only drugs I've found that provides a week to week bennifit.

Board members made the commitment during a meeting Wednesday, citing increased elementary class sizes, particularly in second and third grade.
Edison Schools did not replace one retiring teacher in both grades this academic year. Their student-to-teacher ratio is currently about 28-to-1, but 25-to-1 or less is ideal, superintendent Tom Roth said.
"We've heard concerns from parents," Roth said. "If student numbers remain high and the levy passes, we would like to hire, possibly in both grade levels."
Voters will decide the fate of a 7.9-mill emergency operating levy on the May ballot. Board members contemplated levies ranging from 4.9 to 7.9 mills in January.

Jamaica Park Operations Unaffected by Small Fire
April 27, 2012, Miami, Florida – Rainforest Adventures, a collection of ecotourism parks and tours located throughout the Central American and Caribbean regions, confirmed today that a small fire on the night of Wednesday, April 26, 2012 damaged some of the bathrooms at their Mystic Mountain location in Jamaica.
The park remains fully operational.
"We are happy to report that no one was injured and the damage was limited to the bathrooms near the sales centre," says Annika Bratt, vice president of sales and marketing. "Our first priorities are safety and conservation. We have determined that the fire did not affect park safety for our guests and had minimal impact on the rainforest. Due to smoke damage to the sales and administrative offices, we have temporarily moved our sales and administrative staff to other locations in the park as a precaution."
Bratt credits the quick response of the Ocho Rios Fire Brigade for containing the damage saying, "We want to thank the Ocho Rios Fire Brigade and the community for their support and kind wishes."
The fire is believed to have started in a composting station. The company will be investigating the source of the fire and making any required improvements.

Best Way To Train For Half Marathon?
Posted 07 January 2013 - 05:01 AM
I'm finally able to exercise for more than a few minutes at a time, and have now successfully run several 3 milers without feeling like I was going to keel over. Ran four miles yesterday and felt great. (Sick today, but pollen is awful here - and it's definitely allergies. Frustrated!)
So: I want to train for a half marathon. The race isn't until November, so I have a lot of time. I was thinking that I'd take one of the many 12-week training schedules and roughly utilize that, which would have me up to snuff by summer, and then try to fluctuate weekly schedules to sort of train again.
It looks like there are a lot of runners on here, and I'd like to know what you'd suggest.
Quite a few of the training schedules have times (like, run for 30 minutes on Tuesday and Thursday, then run 4 miles on Saturday) with some cross training and walks and days off. Others have distances (3 miles on Tuesday and Thursday, then 4 miles on Saturday), with cross training and days off. I'm leaning more toward distance-based running, because I'm not fast and won't cover much ground in 30 minutes (though that, too, is improving).
What do you do?

Good luck and happy training.

Please keep us updated on how you're doing and how the race goes. I stopped running when I went gluten-free and I'm waiting for my weight to get back to normal before I start up again, so I'd love to hear how you're dealing with the training.
By the way, if this is your thing, I've loved the audio game Run, Zombies! for my training. Sometimes I also listen to long audiobooks, but the game really got me moving and made long runs pretty exciting.

I lover running and have done several halfs. I've used the Hal Higdon programs. Whenever a time is suggested, i.e. 30 minutes, I've just converted it to a reasonable distance. In training I've found it's best to be flexible, because life is going to get in the way of the 12 week training plan.
Best of luck to you! My favorite foods while training have become sweet potatoes, eggs, and kale!

I'm finally able to exercise for more than a few minutes at a time, and have now successfully run several 3 milers without feeling like I was going to keel over.
I want to train for a half marathon. The race isn't until November.
What do you do?
I registered for my 1st 5K(maybe last) WarriorDash obsticle race. Aug.3,2013. I hope I don't keel over either. I'm at stage 5 (of 12) now with 15 minutes jogging(4.5)/15 minutes walking(2.5) in intervals on the treadmill. By stage 12, hope to jog for 30 minutes. Eventually, redo same sequence with running(6.5). I need to check my bone density (ie left hip) because it hurts after about 5 minutes. This pain comes and goes. I know celiac disease leads into osteopenia. Running is good weight management but hard on the body.
Good luck with your 1/2 M.

Life does get in the way, and a head cold took me out of a run last week, but I think it's actually helped me feel better as I recover (I think it's just allergies, not a virus, and it never got into my chest).
dilettantesteph, I would love to do a tri - and I hope I can hire a coach someday to help me learn to swim laps (I can swim, just not efficiently, and certainly not well enough to race).
Chaff, I'm definitely training just to finish - I'm hesitant to set even a moderate goal time, because I don't want to be disappointed. I'm using Runkeeper, too, which is amazing. I feel so much more motivated knowing how far I've gone and at what pace - things I never knew before! I'm only aiming to add a mile a week (or every two weeks) for my long runs. I've heard about the zombie apps but haven't used them - I'm afraid they'd stress me out! I usually listen to Pandora, and I switch up the stations a lot, but I'm getting to where I want to make playlists. There are a few albums that I like to run to.
jebby, I've been eating a lot of eggs - one or two for breakfast each morning with gluten-free toast, Bob's gluten-free Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal, or Van's gluten-free waffles, and usually some zucchini or cabbage (trying to fit more veggies into my diet, including at least one at breakfast as often as I can - spinach is great in smoothies! but not so much in the winter). I'll have to play with sweet potatoes, I know they're a better starch than what I'm eating. And we eat a lot of kale - love it!
Opa3, the run/walk training programs are supposed to be really good, especially for beginners. Please be careful about your hip, pain there might be bad! I never had a bone scan, but I think we caught my Celiac pretty early and I'm in my early 30s - so hopefully I'm not too bad off. I have noticed that I haven't had the shin pain I used to before going gluten-free, so that's a good sign (plus I'm on calcium supplements, and may always be since I'm as dairy free as I can manage). Resistance training (if your doc OKs it) is supposed to be good for bone density, even something with body weight like pilates or yoga might be good. Those obstacle races look intense! I'm tempted by them, but some of the obstacles look dangerous (some of the ones I've seen recently involve electric shock - who the hell designed that?!), and I'd be out of work if I broke a bone.
Another question: Jebby/jess mentioned what she eats, what else do you eat when training? Are you hungrier?
And another: I usually run without headphones (I run when it's dark/early morning usually, and I think it's safer), but I'd like to find some that stay in, aren't painful, and don't flop around. I saw a pair once that had fabric wrapped wires, which seemed like a good idea (really light ones, and soft). I'm curious about the over-ear/clip design (I think it's the "sport" design), too. What do you use?
Thanks for all the replies! Hopefully the board won't crash again anytime soon...

By Dash time, I'll be 68.5 years old. Had celiac disease for 30 years and definetly will get a bone study done asap. Last year, I lost 30 lbs with better diet(added more protein, fresh fruits & veggies, more nuts) and weight training. I challenged my nephew to run with me, He does these obstacles races frequently and says they are pretty safe. Electric shock? I'd go around that one. Runners are not obligated to do them and no time limit either. Maybe I'll just walk/jog the 5K. It's just for fun and weight management for 2013.
Headphones? To date, I don't use any.

Congrats on the weight loss and increased training - that's awesome. My parents are close to your age and I wish they were half as motivated as you! (My dad tested negative for Celiac, my mom is waiting until her annual blood test in March to do her test.)
It's great that you will have a running partner! I try to get my husband to work out with me, usually to no avail...

Did 3 miles today, though, and was slow! I guess I should have taken a day to recover, but will be traveling for work tomorrow and Thursday and am not sure I'll have time to run, and definitely won't on Friday and Sunday... so I wanted to fit another one in. I've really got to start making music mixes, though - I usually stream Pandora and that can be pretty hit or miss. That's fine for half an hour, but moving up towards an hour's worth of music makes me want to spend some time picking what I'll listen to!

I felt like I was just going too slow, and I didn't feel like it was helping me recover. I tried to walk pretty short distances, but I still felt like I was having to warm up again after - no matter how short!
I did make it 8 miles, though! I jumped there from 6 since I was incorporating walking but will drop back down to 7 to continue my gradual addition of miles each week.
So far I've not invested in a hydration belt, and from the research I've done on during-run supplements it looks like I'll be as good with honey or candy (Skittles, probably) as anything else. I can't do sports drinks well, they mess with my stomach (too much citric acid, I think), so I know if I run in the heat I'll also need salts, but I'm hoping (despite being in Florida) not to have to train in too much heat, since I usually run in the early morning.
I got to run with that coworker for a short mid-week run, and it was awfully nice to have company and to help me keep pace. Unfortunately, I was on travel and he's nowhere near me, but he showed me a beautiful park, which also helped the run go by fast. Keeping my fingers crossed I might find a running partner someday!

Nearly there - time to do a 12 mile run this weekend and the half marathon (not a race, just the distance) the next. I usually run alone, but have a friend running the half-marathon distance with me.
Just in time, too, as the heat has arrived here in Florida.
Taking it slow (stretched a 12-week training program to about 16 weeks), trying to keep mileage up during the week, and allowing life to happen (I didn't always get to my mid-week or longer weekend runs, so I'd extend training another week) really helped. I still average a 10-minute mile, but my shorter runs can be a little faster when I push it.
I'll take the summer to work on resistance training and return to running in the fall, in time to train for the race!
I'd still love to hear about what others are doing and training for.

That is awesome to hear that you have been able to build up your mileage with patience and time. I have been running a lot because I am training for my first marathon in May (in Cleveland). I ran a half marathon in NYC last weekend which was great. I have stuck with plain water for hydration for most runs, before long, long runs will have some Gatorade.
I have been eating a lot more bananas than in the past and chia seeds. I make a chia seeds cereal some mornings in which I mix 3 tbsp of chia seeds with a little coconut, almond slivers, cocoa powder, cinnamon, pinch of salt, and almond milk. Then I heat it in the microwave for a minute and a half. It is filling and a good pre-fuel for me. I lost too much weight a few months ago, so I've been baking with a lot of almond flour to increase my calories. And eating lots of sweet potatoes!
Are you on Daily Mile? If you, I would love to connect. Let me know and I'll send you my info.
Also, there is a great blog which I've found called "Run Rebecca Run." Rebecca has Celiac Disease and has a goal to run a marathon in every state.
All the best!

Hi archaeo,...
Hi Jebby,
Thanks for the response! For some reason I didn't get a notification that you'd responded.
I'm not on Daily Mile right now, but I do use RunKeeper. Do you only use Daily MIle? I've never looked at it.
I got through a 14-mile run about a month ago, with a friend, on a route he'd run as a half-marathon race (not sure why it sound up being 14 miles according to RunKeeper). Pretty happy with my time, too, especially since it was already pretty warm and a hillier route than I usually take.
Unfortunately, I've been pretty lazy since then! I decided that I wanted to transition to more strength training over the summer, and I've started doing the Insanity workouts. That goes well as long as I'm feeling ok, but last week I had a vertebrae issue (!) that caused shooting pains up onto and into my head - ouch!
I want to try to keep running at least once or twice a week, but I'm in Florida and it's already really hot and humid. Getting out of bed to run first thing in the morning can be challenging! As long as I'm doing something, I'm not too disappointed, but I know that if I don't continue to run I'll lose what I built up. My half isn't until November, and I plan on transitioning back to running again late summer.
The best news for me is that my antibody levels are down to a normal threshold, and I can introduce gluten-free oats. I get so tired of rice sometimes! I definitely don't need to gain weight - I wouldn't mind losing a few more pounds, but more than that I'd like to reduce body fat (even if total weight goes up with muscle mass). But I just read the thread on fat-burning supplements and I can't help but think those things are crazy. I'm exposed to enough chemicals unintentionally, I don't want to intentionally ingest crazy things! I do eat chia seeds, but usually mixed into a smoothie. Not a big fan of coconut, but I'm getting used to the flavor as I try to avoid dairy and a lot of substitutes have coconut instead.
I'll check out that blog, too, thanks for the recommendation!
Have you run your marathon yet? I hope it went well, or good luck!

Opening day is fast approaching at the specially designed Miracle Field in Germantown, which caters to children with mental and physical disabilities. But the baseball league's sponsors have a problem: They want to have more games each week, and need more players to do it.
Aside from the attention the field received when it opened in August 2011, people don't really know the league is there, said Jim Leder, president of the nonprofit Miracle League of Montgomery County.
"We've been just like a nonentity," said Leder. "We have room for more children, or even adults or seniors."
In past seasons, the league has had about 30 children participating, said Judy Stiles, a spokeswoman for Montgomery County Recreation, which handles registration for the league. As of last week, only two had registered for the Spring 2013 season, she said.
The league, which currently has no age limit, plays one game of baseball per week each season. Players gather at the field at the South Germantown Recreational Park on Saturday mornings, then divide into teams and play for about an hour and a half, said Marv Jackson, one of the league's trustees.
Other than that, the field isn't being used, he said.
Funded in part by a grant from the Washington Nationals Dream Foundation, Miracle Field is equipped with a special rubber surface, so children with walkers or wheelchairs can run the bases and play in the outfield without injuring themselves.
The field cost about $1 million to build. There is a seasonal registration fee of $45 per player for county residents and $60 for nonresidents.
Each player is partnered with a non-disabled "buddy" for the duration of the game. Every player gets a chance to bat and run the bases each inning, and each team is considered the winner.
"The feeling that they get, and the looks in their faces ... it's just unbelievable," Jackson said.
The league's spring season runs from April 13 to June 22.
The county's recreation department has used email to reach out to families of children who have played in the league in the past, as well as all children registered for the county's general youth basketball program — about 10,000 families in all, Stiles said.
The department also contacted organizations that provide services to the disabled in the community, and sent flyers home in the backpacks of students at Longview School, Stephen Knolls School and Carl Sandburg Learning Center — the three county schools with special-education programs, Stiles said.
"We're looking, in the fall, to build a soccer league on the field," Stiles said. "We're also looking to expand programs to adults with disabilities." Games such as kickball, T-ball and softball also could be offered at the field, she said.
Finding the Miracle Field has been a great help for Sean Ryan of Kensington, whose son, Joseph, 9, has autism.
Ryan said it can be difficult to find activities that Joseph wants to participate in, but he has enjoyed playing baseball and knows some of the other players from school. Joseph's sister, Shannon, 6, also plays with the league, Ryan said.
"It's a great field," said Ryan, who also helps coordinate the league. "Nice to play on, well-maintained."
Ryan, an electrician, said seeing the children play on the field makes the usual worries and stresses of the week disappear.
"I see the smiles on their faces," Ryan said. "I forget all about the other stuff."

Is it possible to script rutines in QGIS (python) and then runing them remotely? To illustrate, can I through a shell (ssh or telnet) ask to QGIS to transform a shapefile into a gjson format? Mostly, I'm thinking in the interaction of QGIS with another software like R for example, where I can generate command lines. (I'm not talking about QGIS internal command shell)

Lewis Hamilton believes that once Red Bull have resolved their issues the RB10 will be "very hard" to beat...
Lewis Hamilton believes that once Red Bull have resolved their issues the RB10 will be "very hard" to beat.
Although Red Bull go into this season as the reigning Champions having won the last four titles, the team is very much on the back foot.
They encountered several problems in pre-season testing that have limited their running with Sebastian Vettel's 77 laps from Sunday the most the RB10 has covered on a single day.
Red Bull, though, have shown glimpses of pace with Daniel Ricciardo's 1:35.743 third quickest on Friday although it was only good enough for tenth overall for the week.
But despite the team's woes, Mercedes driver Hamilton reckons once Red Bull have put aside their troubles they will be the ones to beat.
"They look like they have a stunning car, and usually the more beautiful it is the faster it is so I'm sure they've got a pretty quick car this year," Hamilton told Autosport.
"Once they get the engine sorted, or the systems that they might be struggling with, I think they'll - as always - be very hard to beat.
"Sebastian [Vettel] is the reigning world champion so he's the target for everyone.
"But I know my team is strong so hopefully we'll be able to fight with them."
The Brit, who claimed the final P1 for pre-season testing on Sunday with a 1:33.278, added that this year it is difficult to pick a favourite as no one knows what is going on.
"It's definitely the weirdest and most difficult pre-season to be able to judge where everyone is," he said.
"There's still things we're learning, things we haven't covered, there's tonnes of stuff.
"So as we go into the race weekend it will be a bit like a test on the Friday. I think there's a lot more to come.
"There will be mistakes through the whole paddock I'm sure, and hopefully we'll make the least."
