In the wake of the worst humanitarian disaster in years, post-earthquake Haiti could be one of the most hostile places on earth to give birth.
On Sunday morning, ABC News senior health and medical editor Dr. Richard Besser found himself faced with a woman in labor. She was 25 years old and a first-time mother, and she was going into labor in a park. Even in the best of circumstances, the relative lack of medical infrastructure in the tent city where Besser attended to the woman made dealing with such a case a challenge.
This, however, was not the best of circumstances. The baby appeared to be in what is known as a transverse position – one in which the baby is oriented with its back or shoulder toward the cervix instead of the head. A foul smelling, brown discharge had already emanated from the mother. And no movement or heartbeat could be immediately detected from the baby.
At 11:26 AM, using his BlackBerry, Besser contacted several obstetricians for advice in dealing with the problematic case. Dr. Jacques Moritz, director of gynecology at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital in New York, was one of these experts. Moritz, who was in upstate New York for the weekend, responded to the call. And as Besser's texts revealed more and more information, Moritz said the situation quickly appeared to go from bad to worse.
"My fingers were kind of trembling on the BlackBerry," said Moritz, who in the past has provided medical services in Haiti. "Even if I had been there myself, it would have been a bad situation."
The foul-smelling discharge, Moritz said, indicated than an infection was possible, even likely. But more troubling was the reported orientation of the baby.
"In the transverse position, it is impossible to deliver vaginally," he said, adding that the only option would be to perform a c-section. "Without the medical ability to do a c-section... the baby would die in labor, and soon enough the mother would die."
The only hope would be to get to a hospital. And time was running short.
Even before Tuesday's massive earthquake, statistics had shown that Haiti is a dangerous place to give birth. According to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), Haiti has the highest rate of infant, under-five and maternal mortality in the Western hemisphere.
Out of every 1,000 children born alive, 57 die before their first birthdays in Haiti. By comparison, in the United States the rate is 7 per 1,000. And according to the UNICEF's 2005 statistics, the maternal death rate stood at 670 deaths per 100,000 births -- a rate that puts it closer to countries in Sub-Saharan Africa than neighbors in the Americas. Just across the border in the Dominican Republic, only 150 women per 100,000 births die.
Other statistics are equally grim. A woman in Haiti has a 1 in 44 chance of dying from childbirth in her lifetime, according to the World Health Organization. The comparable statistic for the United States is 1 in 4,800.
Part of the problem may be that even in the best of times, medical resources may not be accessible to many Haitians.
"About 80 percent of the population delivers outside of the hospital on a good day [in Haiti]," Moritz said.

The Ridgway softball 13-and 14-year-old All-Stars lost 7-3 to St. Marys in action Thursday at the Ridgway Little League fields located along Grant Road.
St. Marys took the lead in the first inning. The St. Marys All-Stars were designated as the visiting team and Jackie Lenze led off the game with a single. Lenze would eventually score the game's first run on a wild pitch. Rachel Stauffer walked with one out and would score on a Ridgway throwing error to make the lead 2-0 for St. Marys after half an inning.
St. Marys would retain that 2-0 lead until the third inning when the St. Marys all-stars added another run with a 2-out rally. Brittany Geitner singled and Stauffer walked. Pinch runner Sydnie Stauffer, running for Geitner, scored on a Ridgway throwing error to make the lead 3-0.
Ridgway put a dent in the scoreboard in the home half of the third inning. Megan Kucenski was hit by a pitch with one out and Jenni Thomas singled. After a ridgway pinch runner was tagged out on the bases, Emily Spiers walked. Thomas went to advance to third and the throw to try and record an out on the bases was wide, allowing Thomas to score. Spiers ran to second on the play and the throw to get Spiers out went into center field as she came all the way around for Ridgway's second run to make the score 3-2 after three innings.
In the fourth, Carli Schneider walked with one out and would later come around to score on a wild pitch to extend the lead to 4-2.
St. Marys added a pair of runs in the fifth inning. Abbey Bauer led off the inning with a single. After two flyouts, Rachel Stauffer singled and Bauer came around to score from third. Rachel Stauffer went to second on a stolen base and third on a throwing error, then scored on a single from Hayley DaCanal to push the advantage to 6-2.
Ridgway scored a run in the fifth as Thomas reached on a fielder's choice and later scored on a St. Marys error.
In the seventh inning, Sydnie Stauffer singled and then went to steal second base. The throw to cut down the runner went into center field as Stauffer came around to score St. Marys' seventh run.
Bauer had six strikeouts for St. Marys as the starting pitcher. Ridgway starting pitcher Taylor Roseto had nine strikeouts on the mound.
Thomas was 2-for-3 with two runs scored to lead Ridgway. Rachel Stauffer and Sydnie Stauffer each had two runs scored for St. Marys.
St. Marys will play DuBois on Saturday at 4 p.m. Ridgway will play Punxsutawney also at 4 p.m. Saturday. Sites are to be determined for both games.

The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
Physical death is a necessary and, perhaps, disconcerting element of the evolutionary process for many Christians. It is difficult to imagine a perfect and loving God designing such a universe where forces such as natural death and entropy operate.
Pete Shaw highlights the story of Noah to explore how the story would have been understood in ancient times and from there he goes on to explore how we might consider it today.
This sermon is a clear reminder that we each have a choice. We can work to build cities that celebrate God's love for us (the lineage of Seth), or we can live in the destructive lineage of Cain. May the spirit of prayer, humility, and love characterize the world's cities on this the tenth anniversary of America's most stark example of "The Tale of Two Cities."

Hi Sarah. Thanks for your enquiry, above. Happily I can confirm that most newer accessories will fit your elite. 2010 range sunhoods however have been significantlyupgraded, meaning that you'll need to purchase a pre 2010 cover. They'll shortly be available through this e-shop, but are otherwise available through retailers. Thanks and regards, MB.

Bought an Urban Elite buggy a couple of years ago because of reputation and after-sales support only to discover after just 2 yrs we can't get any accessories for our model. Is this true?
SPF rating?
Written by: Shelley4/5
As per a previous review, I am also interested in the sun protection rating of this cover. Can you please confirm? I have the cover and it is great but I am not sure how much protection my baby is getting so I tend to through a muslin over the top as well, which pretty much defeats the purpose of having the cover!
Thanks %user_name%

Women and Depression
Women and Depression is a new brochure about the many dimensions of major depression in women.
Some facts:
"Nearly 18 million Americans experience depression every year," says NAMI medical director Ken Duckworth, M.D. "The good news is that with a correct diagnosis, most people can be treated effectively. The bad news is that two-thirds of all people living with depression don't get the help they need."
"Some experiences related to depression are unique to women, including post-partum changes, infertility, and hormonal fluctuations throughout the course of life," Duckworth said. "Information in the brochure will help women to help themselves—as well as other women. All family members will benefit by using it as a reference."
Major depression is a medical illness that affects a person's mind, mood, body, and behavior. It is more than "feeling down" because of a recent loss or family, work or financial stresses; it occurs when these feelings become more intense and persist to the point that they affect daily functioning.
The 13-page brochure highlights symptoms, causes, women of color, life stages, and treatment, with additional sections on seeking professional help, self-help, preventing recurrent depression, and helping other women.
Publication of the brochure was supported by an educational grant from Wyeth Pharmaceuticals.

A small San Francisco bookstore is going out of business because it can't afford a minimum-wage increase approved by voters last year.
Bruce Rauner, Illinois' new Republican governor, was inaugurated on Monday and is facing a daunting task: a $4 billion backlog of unpaid bills and a budget showing deficits approaching $21 billion in three years unless something is done.
The self-styled "Islamic State," the terrorist group often referred to as ISIS or ISIL that was admittedly armed by the Obama administration and its Islamic "allies," is best known for its savagery, beheadings, and all-around jihadist terror. In recent days, though, after reportedly announcing that it would be minting its own gold, silver, and copper currency dubbed the "dinar" and the "dirham," the brutal Islamist outfit has also become known for its monetary policy. According to the group, which announced its new money system last week, the goal of the precious-metals currency is to "emancipate itself from the satanic global economic system based on usury."
Much of the world continues to gain greater levels of economic freedom, according to a new report by the Canada-based Fraser Institute ranking more than 150 countries on everything from personal choice to security of private property. Research and studies show the trend should bring more prosperity, longer life spans, and more political freedom as well. But the news is less rosy for the United States — once the most economically free nation on the planet — as the policies of successive congresses and presidential administrations caused a steep decline in the U.S. position on the important index in recent years.

Friday, September 10, 2004JOHNSON CITY Sept. 10, 2004) -- The East Tennessee State University men's basketball team took time to visit with patients at the Children's Hospital at Johnson City Medical Center on Friday. All 13 members of the squad, as well as head coach Murry Bartow and assistant coach Scott Wagers, visited with the children. "We think it's important that our players understand that community service is a major part of the collegiate experience for student-athletes at ETSU," Bartow said. "This is a great experience for us because it gives these children something to smile about. Kids look up to student-athletes, and they like the opportunity to meet them." The men's basketball team has adopted the Children's Hospital at JCMC as its charity for the 2004-05 season. Likewise, every other ETSU team has also chosen a local charity and will spend numerous hours of community service helping these organizations throughout the year. Community service is an importnat part of the ETSU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics' mission, which includes academic, athletic and community service success. This is just another example of the Buccaneers' dedication to "Winning ... the RIGHT Way."

Vandals offer birthday money to pay for repairs to Cumbrian church
Published at 08:13, Friday, 09 March 2012
Young boys who desecrated a church have offered to give up their birthday money to help pay for repairs.
Related: Cumbrian kids quizzed by police over church wrecking spree
There was heartbreak and anger in Brampton when it was discovered that gravestones had been pulled over and windows smashed at the historic place of worship – with children aged between six and 10 to blame.
Those responsible for the damage came face-to-face with those most affected by their crime at Brampton Old Church this week.
Police organised the meeting through a restorative justice scheme because the four youngsters are below the age of criminal responsibility.
People there said the children had clearly got the message about the impact of their crime.
Brampton Parish Council chairman Judith Pattinson said: "The parents were very upset and tearful and the children looked bewildered.
"They promised to give the money they had got for their birthdays towards the repairs.
"I thought the meeting was an appropriate way to handle the situation and if it means the community is brought closer, then that can only be beneficial."
The boys toppled gravestones, smashed windows and candlesticks and dragged a cross out of the church almost a fortnight ago. The total damage caused is thought to run into thousands of pounds.
Police believe the restorative justice programme is the most effective way to deal with cases where those responsible are below the age of criminal responsibility because it means they must meet those most affected by the crime. All of the boys responsible for the church damage live locally.
Brampton Preservation Trust, which owns the church but has no responsibility for the graveyard, may have to foot the bill for the damage.
It is understood that one of the boys told a relative what had happened and they then reported it.
In the aftermath of the vandalism, Mrs Pattinson said pupils from Brampton Primary School would carry out litter picks in Murray Park and Irthing Park to demonstrate that young people from the town do care about their community.

BRASELTON, Ga. (April 20, 2013) – Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas put their experience to work Saturday, scoring a dominant victory in the Visual Studio Ultimate Grand Prix of Atlanta, the first GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series race at Road Atlanta.
Pruett recorded one of the first victories of his storied career at the circuit in 1986 – winning an IMSA Camel GTO race – in addition to winning in SCCA Trans-Am.Read Entire Story at GRAND-AM
Evander Holyfield has been named the Grand Marshal for Saturday's Visual Studio Ultimate Grand Prix of Atlanta.
Boxing's sole five-time world heavyweight champion will give the command to start the engines for Round 4 of the 2013 GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series race on Saturday, at 4:30 p.m. ET (SPEED, live), for GRAND-AM Road Racing's inaugural race at Road Atlanta in Braselton, Ga.

My original idea for the prerace blog was to take a look at the some of the teams and drivers that make up the GRAND-AM Rolex Series and Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge Series, but as I thought about it more I realized there are a lot of resources out there where you can learn more about the series and the teams involved. Here is a link to a GRAND-AM fan guide that will give you a better understanding of the classes and also contains a spotters guide - http://www.grand-am.com/Portals/0/Images/PDF/2013_RoadAtlanta_FanGuide.pdf, Also, Road Atlanta just did an excellent news story that takes a closer look at the DP Teams participating in the Rolex race - http://www.roadatlanta.com/nws_13dps.lasso
This left me with a bit of a dilemma on what exactly to focus on for this blog post. After giving it some thought I figured I would concentrate on the drivers that live here in Georgia.

Gallery: Realities:United Receive Bronze Holcim Award for Regenerative ...
The Spree River splits in two in the heart of Berlin and flows around the touristy museum island. A movement is underway to transform the unused canal into a multi-recreational tourist attraction for water sports and leisure activities. After the Berlin Wall came down, there was a huge influx of residents and open space has decreased significantly. This new pool would provide space for leisure and recreation with an even greater bonus of cleaning up the city's water through natural methods.
The beginning portion of the canal would be filled with reed beds and subsurface sand bed filters. After 780 meters of filtration, the water would be sufficiently clean for people to be in it, and the sides of the canal would be converted into stairs to provide access to the water. Incoming drainages would be diverted to the river to maintain the water quality of the pool. Bridges, landings, and decks would offer space to relax and watch the activity. The new pool would be 745 meters long, with specific areas cordoned off for laps, free swim, and even boating. Next to the pool, a new locker and shower facility would be built to support the water activities.
Head of the jury, Enrique Norten of TEN Arquitectos notes, "We selected a project in Berlin, which is one of the very important European captains. It is very beautiful city and its a project that celebrates the life of the urban condition of the city, but also celebrates the relationships with the water." Realities:United will receive USD 50,000 for their award and expect to begin construction in 2018.

We still have six months left in 2013, but that didn't stop Rolling Stone from going ahead and highlighting the year's best albums - so far.
The magazine's "Best Albums of 2013: Mid-Year Report" features a number of Nashville-tied efforts, including several from on-the-rise female country performers.
RS says Pistol Annies' sophomore album is "full of attitude and guffaws," praises the "catchy, biting lyrics" of Kacey Musgraves' "Same Trailer, Different Park," and argues Annies member Ashley Monroe's solo album "Like a Rose" is "even better" than her famous trio's debut.
Nashville stars Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert and Alan Jackson made the cut via their collaborations with John Fogerty on his "Wrote a Song for Everyone," and Kanye West's "Yeezus" - featuring a vocal sample from Music City's own Brenda Lee - was also selected.
See the full list at www.rollingstone.com.

Mission Type: Flyby
Launch Vehicle: 8K78 (no. L1-5M)
Launch Site: NIIP-5 / launch site 1
Spacecraft Mass: 480 kg
-Deep Space Chronicle: A Chronology of Deep Space and Planetary Probes 1958-2000, Monographs in Aerospace History No. 24, by Asif A. Siddiqi
Like its predecessor, this spacecraft never reached Earth orbit. During the launch trajectory, there was a failure in the third stage engine at T+290 seconds as a result of frozen kerosene in the pipeline feeding its turbopump (which prevented a valve from opening).
The third and fourth stages, along with the payload, burned up over Earth's atmosphere over eastern Siberia.
The Mars flyby had been planned for 15 May 1961.


text: Glow in the Dark Faqs Prev Page 1 of 2 Next 1. Can Glow in the Dark be sprayed on a base color other than white? It is highly recommended to prime the object with a white primer, such as Ultra Cover 2X White primer. The darker the object is, the less likely the object will glow in the dark. 2. Does the painted object need to be dry before it can be charged by light? Yes, let object dry completely before charging in the light. 3. Can the paint be used outdoors? Yes, the aerosol paint can be sprayed for outdoor use. Periodic reapplication may be needed to maintain the glow. You can also protect the coating by applying a thin coat of Ultra Cover 2X Gloss Clear. 4. How long does the painted object have to charge for maximum glow? The object should be charged under direct sunlight or artificial light for 2-3 hours for maximum glow. 5. Should the painted object be charged under natural or artificial light? The painted object can be charged on natural or artificial light. The closer and more direct the light is, the better the object will glow. Any shadows or blockage of light will affect the objects ability to glow. Prev Page 1 of 2 Next

If the pulse feature is all that you are after then either machine will work. It is all of the other advanced squarewave features of the Dynasty that make it a bettery choice overall.
We have a Synchrowave 250 at work that welds great and is a real workhorse. I have a Dynasty 300 at home and it welds great as well but with more adjustability. On the thin stuff you can pulse, soften the arc, widen the arc by changing the balance and on the thicker items you can create more arc force as well as make the weld dig in deeper.

Cost must be considered
I don't know it the OP is a company or using this for home garage work.
So the budget is a consideration for any purchase.
The Sync might be a bit cheaper up front than the Dynasty.
The Sync will cost more to run every month than a comparable Dynasty model.
Both will do the job described and much more. What monthly profit margins are you wanting to achieve.Live Right Have Fun

Dynasty 200
Just have to add.
The Dynasty 200 is portable and runs on 110V in a pinch. Need to drag it to a friends house? The Dynasty is the only way to go.
If you ever have to do thick aluminum (thicker than say 1/4"), fill that gap with a MIG setup.
The Dynasty 200 will do 100% of all the TIG welding you will ever have to do on a car.
The only bad thing, if you hit Craigslist etc. you can sometimes find Synchrowaves for $1400 or so. I have yet to see a Dynasty 200DX for less that $2200 - even old, non blue lightning version.
Priced new, they are both in the same ballpark. With the 250 you really need factor in the water cooled torch and cooler.
With the 200, it depends on how much welding you will do. Quick jobs (most around a car are) don't really require water cooled.Con Fuse!

Newby question
I was considering a Syncrowave 200 Runner. Now, I see members saying the Dynasty is a better machine. I have priced the Syncrowave @ $2700 vs. the Dynasty @ $ 4500. Not to sound like a smart a$$ but I would hope with that price difference it would be better. I realise many members are full time professional welders and in no way do I intend or mean to question their knowledge! I am just asking if the Syncrowave can do a nice job welding up to 1/4" Alum. I am a retired/amateur that wants a reliable machine that can do a nice job. I am not in a hurry so duty cycle is not a big concern. I appreciate any and all suggestions. Thanks, Jimmy

I bought the Dynasty200. At times I wish I'd bought the sync250. The dynasty is a great machine, but I could always use more power/duty cycle. I'm working out of the shop most of the time so the weight on the sync isn't that much of an issue. One time I carried the dynasty out and did some stick welding on 110v. That was nice! You could probably buy the sync AND buy a little inverter DC stick machine for the same money as the dynasty.

We have both at the shop and the dynasty is always the machine taken first. If your just a hobbyist then truthfully a used sync 180 or 200 will do just fine. Those can be found used for around $1500 all day long.

Buccaneer Baseball falls to Furman in 3-2 heartbreaker
Friday, May 09, 2003GREENVILLE, S.C. (May 9, 2003) - East Tennessee State held a 2-1 lead going into the bottom of the ninth, but Furman rallied for two runs in the final frame to come away with a 3-2 victory over the Bucs Friday night from Furman Baseball Stadium in Greenville, S.C. The game was a pitcher's duel throughout, with Furman starter Jon Stallsmith (4-4) getting the win after going the distance and allowing two earned runs on seven hits while striking out five. Buccaneer junior Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.) was charged with the tough-luck loss (2-6) after pitching 8.1 innings, scattering nine hits and allowing three runs, two of which were earned. Turner walked three on the evening and struck out seven. Tonight's contest stayed scoreless for the first five innings, but it certainly did not have a lack of excitement. Turner worked out of a jam in the bottom of the first, leaving the bases loaded but allowing no Paladin runs. Furman loaded the bases with no outs on two singles and a walk. After a near ETSU (14-31, 9-15 Southern Conference) triple play that resulted in only one out, Turner kept his composure and retired the final two batters of the frame on a strikeout and a ground ball. Turner also worked out of a jam in the second frame, stranding runners on first and third. In the third inning, the Furman (26-21, 15-13 SoCon) stranded two more runners after a heads-up play by Buccaneer senior first baseman Chad Boruff (Knoxville, Tenn.). On an infield single by Furman right fielder Cole Hubka, first baseman Dominic Frankey tried to score from second. Boruff noticed Frankey coming around third, wheeled and fired to sophomore catcher Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.) who made the tag for the final out of the inning. East Tennessee State threatened in the top of the fourth inning, but Stallsmith did some nifty pitching of his own to keep the game scoreless. The Bucs loaded the bases with one out on a walk to freshman right fielder Jordan Abromovitz (South Park, Pa.), a single up the middle by Moore and a single to center field by freshman designated hitter Blake Church (Roswell, Ga.). But Stallsmith got a double-play ground ball to end the inning. The Bucs manufactured a run in the top of the sixth to break the scoreless tie. Freshman third baseman Shane Byrne (Johnson City, Tenn.) led off the inning with a walk, and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Moore. Abromovitz then laced a single to right center, bringing home Byrne. East Tennessee State struck for another run in the top of the seventh, running their lead to 2-0. Junior left fielder Bo Calloway (Knoxville, Tenn.) doubled down the left field line with one out. He scored as sophomore second baseman Justin Clear (LaFollette, Tenn.) came through with a clutch two-out single to right-center. Furman cut the Buccaneer lead to 2-1, scoring their first run of the night in the bottom of the seventh. Catcher Derek Norman began a two-out rally with a double to right canter. Frankey, the next batter, brought him home on a single to right. Furman began their rally in the bottom of the ninth with an infield single by second baseman Clint Hill with one out. Paladin center fielder Andrew Greene then singled to center, advancing to Hill to third. Norman then reached on an error, advancing Greene to second and scoring Hill with the tying run. After a fielder's choice by Frankey sent Greene to third, pinch-hitter Sam McLain came to the plate and laced a single to center, scoring Greene with the game-winning run. Seven Buccaneers had a hit each, with Byrne and Calloway collecting a hit and a run scored and Clear and Abromovitz notching a hit and an RBI on the night. The first four batters in Furman's order had multiple hits, with Hill, Greene, Norman and Frankey each collecting two base hits. Game two of the three game weekend set between the Bucs and Paladins will begin tomorrow night at 6 p.m. Live stats for the game will be available on www.furmanpaladins.com.

Does anyone know how to connect IQFeeds with Matlab. It seems the datafeed toolbox only accepts Reuters, Bloomberg, Yahoo and one or two more. I've been looking all over the place for a Matlab toobox or some code because I'm using IQFeeds. It's weird because on here I've read many posts of people talking about their IQFeeds into MAtlab as if its just normal and their question instead focusses on the API conncetion with IB or something. Can anyone please help me since I feel totally on my own here?

I'm working on a C# project involving file encryption/decryption. One of the features I've implemented is the option to "securely delete" the original file after it's been encrypted (such that only the encrypted version remains, and the original cannot be recovered by file recovery utilities). Now, I don't really want to post my code. What I'd like to know is if you guys can recommend some trustworthy/safe free file recovery utilities against which I can test my "secure deletion". Obviously, if any of those utilities can recover a file that my program has "securely deleted", then my code still needs work...

I believe that the draft went very fine last year and if you count the college free agents that made the 53 roster then it went great. Free agency was a injury disaster which is all hard to blame on Ireland. Marshall, Hicks and Gerard which were the big ticket free agent signings if you want to call them big ticket all ended on IR. Gerard was a gamble I admit but so was Brees and we saw how that ended, Hicks and Marshall had been playing up to the point so I will not hold his feet to the fire to much. Nanee was a disaster I will admit why Philbin kept him on the roster is beyond me though. It takes really big money to sign free agents from other teams and I personally hate to see us do it unless we are very close to being really good. I prefer us to pay our own and keep churning the college ranks like we did last year. So yes if Ireland can produce as well or better in the college draft this year compared to last then I trust the guy and I believe he will do it. What most of his naysayers miss is why would you not give the guy another chance if you were satisfied with last years draft. What has changed this year to make you feel that way? If you want to give Sherman and Philbin credit for last years draft hell they are still on staff and after just spending a few months with Ireland and having a sucessful draft it should be darn better this year than last after they have had a entire year to work together.
if i were an objective fan i would say hell no, but we have no choice but to trust him. but hey, no pressure on you jeffy, screw this offseason up and it should only set us back till the next decade....
Philbin really didn't show anything special from what I saw last year. He was an upgrade from Morono...but that is about it. We still couldn't score consistently in the red zone. And I saw nothing magical on defense. Looked like the same old crap. I saw zero "innovation."
"May the acorns rest in peace..."
I dont think ireland and philben's fates should be intertwined. If we dont make playoffs Ireland should be gone Philben as long as he doesnt go like 4-12 deserves more time

Why protect mineral and aggregate resources?Gravel deposits are quite numerous throughout Oregon. In fact, the combined values of sand, gravel, and stone rank as No. 1 in Oregon's mineral industry. Sand and gravel are essential materials for construction of highways, bridges, buildings, and airports. Large quantities of sand and gravel are also used for fill. Studies by the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries indicate that most, if not all, of the available gravel will be needed for development. Since gravel is a vital resource needed for development of any area, adequate protection by state and local governmental agencies is needed to assure its availability for present and future use.
What is "aggregate"?Aggregate is a mixture of minerals or rock fragments that resembles rock. People often refer to this as gravel.Does Marion County have much aggregate?Yes! Large deposits of sand and gravel occur in the mile-wide floodplain of the Willamette River; the bar and channel gravels are constantly being replenished. This material represents the gravel deposited during formation of the Valley before the river migrated to its present location. As the river meandered back and forth across the Valley, it deposited gravel and sand. These gravels merge with gravels similarly deposited by the larger tributaries flowing from the Cascade Mountains.
Alluvial or glacial outwash fans in the Santiam River drainage between Mehama and Turner have provided a few hundred square miles in area of sand and gravel. The gravel resource forms a fairly narrow channel through Salem and Turner; but toward Stayton, where the channel of distribution widens, there is 50 feet or more of gravel. What are the land use regulations for approving mineral and aggregate sites? Oregon Revised Statute 215.298 requires that, before land use approval to extract aggregate is granted, the site must be included on an inventory list adopted as part of a county's comprehensive plan. This is done through a comprehensive plan amendment application. Comprehensive Plan amendments to be included on the inventory list must be in compliance with Statewide Planning Goal 5 (Natual Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas and Open Spaces) that includes criteria on quality, quantity, and location of the resource. Comprehensive Plan amendments must also meet county criteria outlined in the Marion County Code. In Marion County, most of the rural resource zones list mining and processing of aggregate as a conditional use. However, under current Oregon Administrative Rules if it is determined that there are no significant conflicts, a conditional use permit may not be required. This determination is done through the Post Acknowlegement Plan Amendment (PAPA).

Thirty professional archaeologists and students toured the Luke Air Force Base Solar-Power-Array project area April 12 to learn about the find at the site and its rich history.
Luke members teamed with the Arizona Public Service, a major electric company in the Phoenix area, to construct and operate the solar array during the planning phase. Archaeologists discovered artifacts on the surface.
"The finding of these surface artifacts clued us in that there may be more underneath," said John Hall, Statistical Research Incorporated project director. "In the summer of 2010, we began excavating doing backhoe trenches and mechanic stripping, which is removal of the top soil."
After three years of hard work, archaeologists uncovered approximately 46 acres through mechanical stripping, revealing 3,500 features or remnants of past activities such as fire pits and housing structures.
"We consider the people who lived here archaic, since radio carbon dates show that the features are anywhere from 3000 B.C. to 1400 A.D.," Hall said. "This site is also one of a kind because it's so old and no one in the Phoenix basin has ever found this many archaic features before."
Because of the uniqueness and rarity of the site, it is important for Luke to reach out to local professionals and students in the area.
"The purpose of the tour was to share information about the project and the features found," said Jeff Rothrock, 56th Civil Engineer Squadron Environmental Flight chief. "The tour gave professionals and students an opportunity to examine in detail the cultural heritage of Luke, the Phoenix basin, Arizona and the greater U.S. Southwest."
The archaeologists also took a walking tour of the different archaeological features, including pit houses, armadas and storage areas.
"This site is very interesting because it covers a period of time that is relatively unknown and a time we rarely see," said Walter Duering, Arizona Museum of Natural History archaeologist.
The amount of features found made it even more special.
"It's remarkable to find so many features in one site associated with this early time period," said Sandy Haddock, Arizona Archaeological Society vice president. "I'm glad to have been able to see such an important, rare and large site."
The project is slated to be completed by May 1. Once all the excavated dirt is put back and compacted, the site will be ready for APS to begin the solar array project by October.

"The Bridge" actress, 36, said that when she brought her boyfriend of six years, Joshua Jackson, to her German hometown to meet her mother for the first time ― about six months after they started dating ― it didn't go as planned.
[Meet Hollywood's Hottest New Couples]
"I thought that we were doing so good and my mom says, 'Ah wait, I have something for you,'" Kruger recounted on Tuesday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live." "She goes into the office and comes back with this folder of Internet clippings of Josh with his mug shot."
Yes, Kruger's mother presented a copy of the "Fringe" actor's 2002 mug shot, which was snapped by authorities after he was booked on charges of drunkenly assaulting a security guard at a Carolina Hurricanes hockey game.
"She thought it would be cute to go, 'So I see you've been arrested ... at a hockey game. Whose fault was it?'" the blond beauty remembered. "You can imagine. We were there for three days. [My mother and I] did not speak for two. It was not good."
[Related: Joshua Jackson and Diane Kruger Are Close to Getting Engaged]
While things with Jackson, 35, are serious, she was enamored with another celebrity when she was growing up: Don Johnson. Yes, really. She talked about becoming a fan of the "Miami Vice" star when she was just a girl because she had her first kiss at age 13 while listening to an unnamed song of Johnson's in the '80s. When her "Inglourious Basterds" director Quentin Tarantino introduced her to Johnson at a Vanity Fair Oscar party, she completely fell apart.
"Quentin goes, 'Look who's here! I turn around and it's Don Johnson with his wife, and I immediately start crying," Kruger said of her meeting with the "Django Unchained" star. "No, but like really. I had a few too many, let's be honest, but it was so embarrassing. [Pretending to cry] I'm, like: 'Oh, you're Don Johnson. I love you for your song. I have it on my phone. Can I play it for you?'"
Kruger with Don Johnson (ABC)
Kruger said her teary adoration for the actor made everyone a little uncomfortable.
"He is so embarrassed and his wife is embarrassed for me and [Josh] says, 'Diane, you really need to stop talking now.' ... [Don] actually had to say, 'I'm walking away now.'"
The best part of her story, though, is the photo she shared of the meet and greet ― and it's a classic. While Kruger is known for looking perfect rocking the latest designer looks on the red carpet, in the pic, her mouth is hanging open, her eyes are red, and she's crying tears of joy.
A little less embarrassing than her mom's mug shot surprise, but not by much.

One of those questions. There are many threads about programming languages here... "What's The best programming language to start with", etc. But... I don't think that such a question has its own thread.
So :
(1) what's your favorite programming language (whether you're actually using it or NOT, doesn't matter)
(2) and why?
Subjectivity is allowed... [Edit : but... could we try avoiding as much as possible language wars... and so things like "my language is better than yours", and "your language is the worst" type of thing ? Thanks ]

Today's Track of the Day is off Horoscope, the newest EP by Los Angeles producer Diego Herrera, released in August under the Suzanne Kraft name on Young Adults. Young Adults is the recently launched, vinyl-only sub-label of Friends of Friends, and so far Kraft is featured on both of their releases. His track "Jus U" is featured on YA001, while Horoscope is YA002. His previous release, 2011′s Green Flash EP, put out on Running Back, operates distinctly in the post-disco mode; little surprise, given some of the artists he was sharing a label with. Horoscope, by comparison, doesn't sample old disco records as extensively—still, if you dig "No Worries," both releases are worth your time.
Hey, don't be a jerk on the internet.

Neuromyelitis optica (NMO), also called Devic's disease, is a central nervous system disorder causing primarily swelling and inflammation of the eye nerves (optic neuritis) and the spinal cord (myelitis).
Neuromyelitis optica occurs when your body's immune system reacts against its own cells in the central nervous system, mainly in the optic nerves and spinal cord, but sometimes in the brain. The cause often is unknown, although it may sometimes appear after an infection, or it may be associated with another autoimmune condition.
Neuromyelitis optica may cause blindness in one or both eyes, weakness or paralysis in the legs or arms, painful spasms, loss of sensation, and bladder or bowel dysfunction from spinal cord damage. NMO attacks may be reversible, but can be severe enough to cause permanent visual loss and problems with walking.
A small number of people with NMO experience vomiting before the onset of eye and spinal cord problems. Children may develop confusion, seizures or coma as a manifestation of NMO.
Expertise and experience. Each year, Mayo Clinic doctors diagnose and treat more than 3,500 adults and children with neuromyelitis optica (NMO) and other central nervous system disorders including multiple sclerosis, optic neuritis, transverse myelitis and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.
Although NMO is relatively uncommon, Mayo Clinic doctors have treated more than 900 people with NMO, either on-site or through coordination with individuals' doctors at home.
Pediatric center. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society has recognized the Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis Center at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota as a Pediatric MS Center of Excellence. The multidisciplinary center focuses on the evaluation and treatment of children with multiple sclerosis, NMO and other central nervous system disorders.
Doctors trained in treating children with brain and nervous system conditions (pediatric neurologists) evaluate and treat children with NMO at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.
Research discoveries. Neurologists and scientists at Mayo Clinic discovered an autoantibody, NMO-IgG, that is a specific marker of NMO. This antibody may help doctors diagnose neuromyelitis optica, and can help identify the disorder from multiple sclerosis.
Studies of NMO at Mayo Clinic are focused on finding new tests to help diagnose affected people as early as possible, enhancing understanding of the disease and improving treatment.
Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., is ranked among the Best Hospitals for neurology and neurosurgery and for rehabilitation, and is ranked high performing for ophthalmology by U.S. News & World Report.
At Mayo Clinic, we assemble a team of specialists who take the time to listen and thoroughly understand your health issues and concerns.

Why Choose Mayo Clinic
What Sets Mayo Clinic Apart
Mayo Clinic doctors perform thorough evaluations to rule out other nervous system (neurological) conditions that have similar signs and symptoms as neuromyelitis optica (NMO). Distinguishing NMO from multiple sclerosis (MS) and other conditions ensures that you receive the most appropriate treatment.
To diagnose your condition, your doctor will review your medical history and symptoms and perform a physical examination. Additional studies may include:
Blood serum tests. In blood serum tests, doctors will test for the antibody NMO-IgG, which helps doctors distinguish NMO from MS and other neurological conditions. Mayo Clinic researchers discovered this antibody, which is a specific marker for NMO.
Your doctor can find this antibody by examining your blood sample, and, in some cases, your spinal fluid. This test helps doctors make an early diagnosis of NMO.
Lumbar puncture (spinal tap). During this test, your doctor will insert a needle into your lower back to remove a small amount of spinal fluid. Doctors test the levels of immune cells, proteins and antibodies in the fluid. This test may help your doctor differentiate NMO from MS.
In NMO, the spinal fluid may show markedly elevated white blood cells during NMO episodes, greater than normally seen in MS, although this doesn't always happen.
Evoked potentials. Evoked potentials, also called evoked response tests, test your brain's response to stimuli such as sounds, sights or touch. Doctors attach small wires (electrodes) to your scalp and, in some cases, your earlobes, neck, arm, leg and back. Equipment attached to the electrodes records your brain's responses to stimuli.
These tests help your doctor to find lesions or damaged areas in the nerves, spinal cord, optic nerve, brain or brainstem.
Doctors trained in brain and nervous system conditions (neurologists) and others have experience treating people with neuromyelitis optica (NMO) and other neurological conditions.
Neuromyelitis optica resembles multiple sclerosis (MS) in several ways, but requires different types of treatment.
Neuromyelitis optica can't be cured, but doctors can help you manage your condition and symptoms. NMO treatment involves therapies to reverse recent symptoms and prevent future attacks.
Care to reverse recent symptoms. In the early stage of an NMO attack, your doctor may give you a corticosteroid medication, methylprednisolone (Solu-Medrol), through a vein in your arm (intravenously). You'll usually take the medication for about five days, and then the medication will be tapered off slowly over several days.
If corticosteroids don't help, your doctor may recommend plasma exchange (plasmapheresis). In this procedure, some blood is removed from your body, and blood cells are mechanically separated from fluid (plasma). Doctors mix your blood cells with a replacement solution and return the blood into your body.
Doctors can also help manage other symptoms you may experience, such as pain or muscle problems.
Preventing future attacks. Doctors may recommend you take a lower dose of corticosteroids for an extensive period of time to prevent future NMO attacks and relapses.
Your doctor may also recommend taking a medication that suppresses your immune system, in addition to corticosteroids, to prevent future NMO attacks. Immunosuppressive medications that may be prescribed include azathioprine (Imuran, Azasan), mycophenolate mofetil (Cellcept) or rituximab (Rituxan).
Mayo Clinic works with hundreds of insurance companies and is an in-network provider for millions of people. In most cases, Mayo Clinic doesn't require a physician referral. Some insurers require referrals or may have additional requirements for certain medical care. All appointments are prioritized on the basis of medical need.

Hurricane season officially started June 1, and experts are predicting an extremely active Atlantic Hurricane Season. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center anticipates that up to 20 named storms will hit the U.S. over the next five months, with more than half of them hurricanes!
That means pet parents in hurricane-prone areas should develop an emergency plan in advance to make sure the whole family—including its furriest members—stay safe.
Here are the ASPCA's top six tips for hurricane season prep:
• Always bring pets indoors at the first sign or warning of a storm or disaster.
• Make sure all pets wear collars and ID tags with up-to-date identification—the ASPCA also recommends microchipping your pet as a more permanent form of I.D.
• Obtain a rescue alert sticker, which will let rescuers know that pets are inside your home. You'll get these when you order a free ASPCA Pet Safety Pack.
• Keep a pet emergency kit and supplies handy with items such as medical records, water, pet food and medications, and pet First Aid supplies.
• Arrange a safe haven for your pets in the event of evacuation. Do not leave your pets behind.
• Choose a designated caregiver who can take care of your pet in the event you are unable to do so.
We hope you and your pets have a fun and safe summer!

Nov. 21, 2012 -- A product marketed to help keep babies safe while they sleep may have the opposite effect.
At least 13 infants have died since 1997 while lying in sleep positioners or sleep wedges, a new CDC report shows. The products often claim to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
Researchers found all but one of the deaths involved infants aged 3 months or less. Most of the infants were placed on their sides to sleep in the sleep positioner, and many were later found lying on their stomachs.
Most of the infants suffocated after rolling onto their stomachs from a side-facing position.
The FDA has never approved any infant sleep positioner to prevent or reduce the risk of SIDS.
Officials are urging parents to follow these safety steps:
A few infant sleep positioners have been cleared by the FDA to treat specific medical conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux. Officials say these sleep positioners should only be used by prescription.
There are two main types of infant sleep positioners. One is a flat mat with a side bolster. The other is an inclined wedge mat with side bolsters.
The FDA and U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) also issued a warning against the use of sleep positioners in 2010.
In this latest report, researchers from the CDC, FDA, and CPSC reviewed data on deaths related to infant sleep positioners from January 1997 to March 2011.
The results showed 13 deaths. The victims ranged in age from 21 days to 4 months.
Four of the infants had been born prematurely and three were one of a set of twins. Four of the 13 infants also had recent respiratory symptoms, such as a cold.
"At least nine of the infants were placed on their sides (and one prone), raising the concern that the 'back-to-sleep' message to position infants on their backs is either not being heard or not being followed," researcher Brenda Lawrence, MD, of the FDA, writes in the CDC report.
The CPSC has also received dozens of reports of infants put to sleep on their backs or sides in positioners and later found in a potentially dangerous position.

Action/Adventure, Drama, Suspense/Thriller
Charles Bronson at 63 or so, continues his vigilante persona in this run-of-the-mill crime drama about a Richard Speck-style killer who knifes young nurses to death. There is no doubt that the film exploits both the heinous, 1966 Speck murder of eight nurses in Chicago and an audience's willingness to go along with the Bronson character, Leo Kessler, when he uses illegal means to entrap criminals. The captured killer, Warren Stacey (Gene Davis) manages to go free because of red tape and the need to wait for the outcome of his insanity plea. When he returns to his murderous predilection, Kessler takes action to permanently stop him.~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Nine Turkish companies participated in the Lockheed Martin F-35 Industry Recognition Event during the IDEF tradeshow May 8.
Each of these companies has contributed to the ongoing work involving the international production and operational capability of the F-35 Lightning II, which results in hundreds of jobs for Turkey. Murad Bayar, Undersecretary for Defense Industries, was recognized for the role SSM provides in the form of leadership, vision, and the commitment of Turkish industry as a best value contributor on the F-35 program.
"Lockheed Martin values the partnership we have established with the Turkish government, military and industry during the past quarter century with the F-16 and the C-130," said Steve O'Bryan, vice president, F-35 Program Integration and Business Development, Lockheed Martin Aeronautics. "That relationship continues to flourish as every F-35 delivered has Turkish components."
The nine Turkish companies supporting the development production of F-35 the future operational capability include:
- Alp Aviation has been supporting the program since 2004 and currently manufactures F-35 production airframe structure and assemblies, production landing gear components and production F135 engine titanium integrated blade rotors for the engine.
- Aselsan is developing manufacturing approaches for advanced optical components, which are part of the F-35 Electro Optical Targeting System. They are also working with Northrup Grumman on the F-35 CNI Avionic Interface Controller and will initiate full scale production activities in the near term.
- Ayesas currently is the sole source supplier for two major F-35 components – missile remote interface unit and the panoramic cockpit display.
- Fokker Elmo manufactures 40 percent of the F-35 Electrical Wiring & Interconnection System (EWIS) and will also deliver and support TAI with all center section wiring systems. Fokker Elmo will also develop the EWIS for the engine, for which a major share is produced in Fokker Elmo Turkey in Izmir.
- Havelsan has been supporting the F-35 training systems since 2005. Additionally, Havelsan has been instrumental as the Turkish lead for developing the construct of the future Turkish F-35 Integrated Pilot and Maintenance Training Center (ITC) and associated training systems in Turkey.
- MiKES has been supporting the F-35 Program since 2004 and MiKES has delivered F-35 aircraft components and assemblies for British Aerospace Engineering (BAE) and Northrop Grumman.
- ROKETSAN has been strategically selected by the Turkish Government to lead the integration and production of the precision-guided Stand-off Missle (SOM) which will be carried internally on the F-35 aircraft.
- Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) has been strategically supporting the F-35 Program since 2008. Currently supplying production hardware that goes into every F-35 production aircraft.
