Natural Killer (NK) Cytotoxicity Profile
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity includes spontaneous cytotoxicity against target cells, typically lacking surface major histocompatibility complex class I expression, cytokine-stimulated cytotoxicity (also called lymphokine-associated cytotoxicity), and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. NK cell cytotoxic function is a key aspect of innate immunity and critical to maintenance of immune function, particularly with regard to viral infections (herpes viruses) and tumor surveillance. Cytotoxic NK cells typically express CD16 at high levels and CD56 at very low levels (CD16+56+) and account for the majority of circulating NK cells, while cytokine-producing NK cells express CD56 abundantly but little to no CD16 (CD56brightCD16+/-) expression. Cytotoxic NK cells contain cytotoxic granules expressing proteins such as perforin, granzyme A and B and granulysin, which participate in the effector cytotoxic function.
T- and B-Cell Quantitation by Flow Cytometry:
Normal immunity requires a balance between the activities of various lymphocyte subpopulations with different effector and regulatory functions.
Different immune cells can be characterized by unique surface membrane antigens described by a cluster of differentiation nomenclature (eg, CD3 is an antigen found on the surface of T lymphocytes). Abnormalities in the number and percent of T (CD3), T-helper (CD4), T-suppressor (CD8), B (CD19), and natural killer (CD16+CD56) lymphocytes have been described in a number of different diseases. In patients who are infected with HIV, the CD4 count is measured for AIDS diagnosis and for initiation of antiviral therapy. The progressive loss of CD4 T lymphocytes in patients infected with HIV is associated with increased infections and complications.
The Public Health Service has recommended that all HIV-positive patients be tested every 3 to 6 months for the level of CD4 T lymphocytes.
The absolute counts of lymphocyte subsets are known to be influenced by a variety of biological factors, including hormones, the environment, and temperature. The studies on diurnal (circadian) variation in lymphocyte counts have demonstrated progressive increase in CD4 T-cell count throughout the day, while CD8 T cells and CD19+ B cells increase between 8:30 am and noon, with no change between noon and afternoon. NK cell counts, on the other hand, are constant throughout the day.(1) Circadian variations in circulating T-cell counts have been shown to be negatively correlated with plasma cortisol concentration.(2-4) In fact, cortisol and catecholamine concentrations control distribution and, therefore, numbers of naive versus effector CD4 and CD8 T cells.(2) It is generally accepted that lower CD4 T-cell counts are seen in the morning compared with the evening,(5) and during summer compared to winter.(6)
These data, therefore, indicate that timing and consistency in timing of blood collection is critical when serially monitoring patients for lymphocyte subsets.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Natural Killer (NK) Cytotoxicity Profile:
-Assessment of patients with recurrent, severe herpes viral infections, primary or secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, and suspected or known monogenic defects affecting the NK cell compartment (approximately 30 known defects cause either functional or classic NK cell deficiency)
-Evaluation of immune reconstitution post hematopoietic cell transplantation and post immunomodulatory therapy
T- and B-Cell Quantitation by Flow Cytometry:
-Monitoring CD4 counts and assessing immune deficiencies
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Cytotoxic activity (% killing) is reported for a series of titrating effector (E) to target (T) ratios. Reference values for each E:T ratio obtained as an average of a cohort of healthy individuals is provided with the report.
Unmeasurable lytic activity or activity <1.5 U is compatible with cellular immunodeficiency.
T- and B-Cell Quantitation by Flow Cytometry:
When the CD4 count falls below 500 cells/mcL, HIV-positive patients can be diagnosed with AIDS and can receive antiretroviral therapy.
When the CD4 count falls below 200 cells/mcL, prophylaxis against Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia is recommended.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
A single abnormal or low result for natural killer (NK) cytotoxic function should not be interpreted as being indicative of NK cell functional deficiency.
At least 3 consecutive results should be obtained to verify functional NK cell deficiency.
It is useful to simultaneously perform total NK cell quantitation in blood to ensure that there is no quantitative NK cell deficiency that can result in low function.
There can be considerable variability in NK cell function between individuals and within an individual over time.
Steroids as well as other immunosuppressants may affect NK cell function.
This test should not be ordered as part of a routine immunological evaluation as a first-tier test. Only patients with specific clinical indications where assessment of NK cell function is warranted should be tested with this assay (described in the Clinical Information and Useful For sections).
NK cell cytotoxic activity diminishes with time in heparinized blood specimens regardless of storage conditions. Specimens >24 hours old may yield falsely low results. Therefore, specimens should be ideally tested within 24 hours of blood collection.
Approximately 25% of healthy individuals may present at any given time with decreased NK cell cytotoxic function, which is why a minimum of 3 consecutive results is required to establish true NK cell functional deficiency and correlation must be made with clinical phenotype.
T- and B-Cell QN by Flow Cytometry:
This assay is not used for diagnosing lymphocytic malignancies or evaluation of lymphocytosis of unknown etiology. In these situations, LCMS / Leukemia/Lymphoma Immunophenotyping by Flow Cytometry, which includes a hematopathology review, should be ordered.
Timing and consistency in timing of blood collection is critical when serially monitoring patients for lymphocyte subsets. See Clinical Information.
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.
The appropriate age-related reference values will be provided on the report.

GM of a new league draft, who do you take at no1 overall.
Reasons why and explanation of said reasons.
GM of a new league draft, who do you take at no1 overall.
Reasons why and explanation of said reasons.
Deshaun Watson is the TRUTH!
He plays defense.
I guess J ended the threab before it got going.
What makes this a tougher question than it appears is the fact that I have seen Durant improve every year in all phases of his game, including his defense. He is not a bad defender, his length really makes him a solid one on one defender. Where he struggles some is in regards to team defense/help defense . . . he's not bad, but it is the area he needs to improve the most.
That said, the man is only 24 years old and he is the best offensive weapon in the game and arguably the best shooter in the game. He certainly isn't a bad consolation prize for any team.
But Lebron = Magic Johnson, except stronger and faster . . . and that is ummatched in the NBA. His intensity level rivals Michael Jordan's and he only just turned 28 himself, with a body built to play into his mid 30's before we see any type of real dropoff. His improved shot and his improved post game, combined with everything else will probably make him the greatest of all time when it's all said and done.
Just depends on how well they age. Durant is a twig and I keep wondering when something is going to snap....can't believe he will manage to stay healthy is he keeps playing the way he does with that body type. With Lebron I do wonder how well he will age. Quick maturation is nice when you're 15.....not so much when you're 30. I think he'll manage to play at a high level even when his athleticism starts to decline but he'll have to move inside.
The biggest thing that separates them in my mind is that James is an elite athlete, Durant is not.
Durant. Because everyone else will say LBJ.
I'm a Knicks fan, but I think it's Lebron by a longshot.
lebron by a landslide

Tis the season for Christmas specials, and tonight is no exception. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" airs at 8 p.m. on CBS.
Will Farrell appears in "Elf," also at 8 p.m. today, but on ABC Family. This 2003 movie also features James Caan, Bob Newhart and Ed Asner.
"Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas" airs at 7:30 p.m. today on DisneyXD. This special is a sequel to 1999's "Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas."
The Hallmark Channel will show the 2009 movie "The Dog Who Saved Christmas" at 8 p.m. today. An inept guard dog successfully protects his new owners' home from thieves while the owners are away.
Holiday movies continue Wednesday with "Home Alone" at 7 p.m. on ABC Family. This classic film features Macaulay Culkin (hard to believe he is 32 years old) as a little kid left behind in his home by his vacationing family.
Right after this film, ABC Family also airs another classic tale. "The Polar Express," with Tom Hanks as the train conductor (his voice anyway), at 9 p.m.
The evening turns to the dogs as "Beethoven's Christmas Adventure" airs at 8 p.m. on Disney. This 2011 movie features Tom Arnold as the voice of the lovable St. Bernard as he tries to track down lost presents and help an misplaced elf.
The Hallmark Channel shows another holiday movie, "Naughty or Nice," at 8 p.m., in which a woman receives Santa's "Naughty or Nice" book and exposes some very bad deeds of the people around her.

Sadness abounds the narrow soul
to control, explain
fear rides side by side
gripping at the throat!
of life
listless and in stupor
they contain all the pain
too much to swallow in the hollow
shallow smallness of their brain.
Narrow souls can never dance
if by chance
they entrance
then – the locks on their minds slam shut!
to "forever time"
destroying the essence of the sublime
forgetting the spark that lit their fire
snuffing it out to forsake
their desire
in control the narrow soul
is consuming sadness whole.

How should I store global information such as a phone number so that it is editable through the CMS?
Store it in your theme options. Read the series of articles called The Complete Guide To The WordPress Settings API. Spare no effort to read it, especially 4th article about Theme Options.
I have written a plugin exactly for this case: Public Contact Data. Last update just yesterday. :)
It can be extended easily by a filter
Before that I have put these things into themes too. But managing that was awkward, especially updates for multiple themes using this code.

Is there a way to enable players to connect to connect as spectators to a VS game in Left 4 Dead 2? And how can I do it myself?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Arqade is a question and answer site for passionate videogamers on all platforms. It's 100% free, no registration required.
You can't spectate a full game unless the server has enabled SourceTV. If SourceTV is enabled, the server will have it listening for connections on a different port, usually 5 above the server's normal port (so, port 27020 by default).
They can connect normally and choose to spectate but they are still counted towards the "Players" count of up to 8.
So to answer your question, no. You cant have additional spectators connected.

In planning my railing project, I've been like a mental patient looking at every railing and fence I pass by, trying to get ideas. Here in Brooklyn the houses are very close together and I think that lends itself to having a lot of fences and railings. There are also a lot of old houses with authentic cast iron railings; really beautiful pieces.
While taste is subjective, there has been a tremendous increase in SS fences, gates, storm/security doors which, in my opinion are just plain ugly. In fact, one of the deciding factors for doing this project myself was the one guy I brought in to look at the job only brought a SS sample. I never even asked him for a price...
So here in my rant is a question to you gentlemen that have a welding business and may actually build and install fences and railings. I am sourcing my material from King Metal. The design I have chosen is from their Design Concepts book. They have some amazing designs in the book and also stock a lot of interesting and unique pieces. Why don't I see these on 98-99% of the houses I see? Do you think it's a lack of interest on the homeowners part or do you think it's a production issue from the builder's standpoint? Is the welder offering these options or is he just offering the cheapest product that can be put together faster? I have to believe there would be a niche market here, especially with the double-latte set gentrifying much of the 'hood. They would love the mix of art and utility.
Man, once I get something in my head...

Most people look at ironwork the way that older women look at cars. They're more interested in it being functional and not making their butt look bigger.
There is the price thing. And then there's something else. What it takes to make a great weldor isn't what it takes to have a real creative imagination.
Welding is about self discipline. It takes a lot of practice and self discipline to be a really good weldor. A really good weldor can catch a puddle and concentrate on it start to finish.
The really creative type craftsman can't. The puddle moves about a quarter of an inch and their mind has left the shop and is off figuring out how to make something else.
Compare King stuff to real ironwork sometime. What King is missing is the soul of the work.

Man speak truth
I am not a blacksmith, but I do plenty of ornamental metalwork. I feel I do creative, quality work and the idea of King's never enters the equation. Well, there was that one railing that was spec'd out of King's parts by another designer and I gladly busted it out... so fast because we didn't have to think about it. Ironically (or not), there was money made because we weren't hand-crafting every g0dd@mned piece of hardware, or engineering on the fly.
What I'm trying to say is that maintaining that "soul" is often a slippery slope. Now I find the soul in a journey to become a better weldor, because I've really developed an appreciation for it. I no longer care what the customer's railing looks like, as long as it's made well with pride and diligence. There is a place for King's and the like, but you have to understand that place and how it fits into your directive.
I've been doing this long enough that I no longer care about the style... I just like to weld.Maxstar 200DX

99% of the people buy by price.
99% of the people don't care where it's made.
99% of the people don't know the difference between hand forged and King's.
I buy from King's and tell my customers that I don't forge the stuff myself. 99% don't care.Jim
Here is my first thing to weld. Being a poor welder adds to rustic look. Got my stuff from King, great company to work with.
At least in a city, most people buy wrought iron to prevent trespassing and burglary. The factor driving that initial decision is money, and from there it shouldn't come as a surprise that most property owners continue to let cost dictate their choices.
So, what gets put together is rarely beautiful -- which irritates anyone who's aware of how great wrought iron can look.
And an even smaller subset of the population is irritated by the fact that 'wrought iron' is almost never made of wrought iron any more. It's decorative steel.
Lots of old-world forms of craftsmanship have disappeared because they aren't what people are willing to pay for any more. Then again, we've all got to make compromises based on what we have the time, money and energy for.Jack Olsen

I can appreciate hand forged work as much as anyone. I wish that I had the talent to do it. It is a true art.Jim
Pros I am sure would laugh at me I screwed the outside part of the frame down to my wood work bench and squared it, before I welded it. Just soaked the table with some water and and with a fire extinguisher on hand, just tacked it up. Stayed square and gave my work bench some personality.

Tomales Point Exploration
This full day tour will take us to the waters where Tomales Bay opens up to the Pacific Ocean, an area with an abundance of wildlife, and an extremely low level of human infringement. Marine mammals such as seals and sea lions are commonly seen. Though such encounters are rare, whales and recently a sea otter have been spotted in this area of the bay. We will stop on a remote beach to enjoy lunch, and other activities, which may include tide pooling, photography, hiking to look for Tule Elk, paddling out the mouth to the ocean on calm days, and much more. Because strong currents may occur in this area of the bay, we consider this tour appropriate for strong beginner or intermediate paddlers.

Credit Union Section Brochure (PDF)
For decades, an important financial institution for many working families was the neighborhood credit union. Serving as both a depository and a loan office, the credit union provided a means of saving for retirement, a college education or a rainy day, as well as, loans for a home, new car or dream vacation.
Today, credit unions are either federally chartered or chartered by their individual state governments.
In 1953 the Illinois General Assembly passed the Credit Union Act in order to safeguard the deposits of Illinois citizens. This statute, together with subsequent amendments, requires the Department to bi-annually examine each credit union's financial condition to determine whether it is in compliance with the Act, the adopted rules and regulations, and all applicable State laws.
The Department utilizes the C.A.M.E.L. (Capital Adequacy, Asset Quality, Management, Earnings, and Liquidity) rating system as a primary tool in the regulation of all state-chartered credit unions. This rating system together with the A.I.R.E.S. (Automated, Integrated, Regulatory, Examination and System) examination format is used to maintain consistency with our federal counterpart.
Proactive supervision and examinations ensure that the Credit Union Section maintains a credible, responsive and sound regulatory environment for all credit union depositors within the State of Illinois.

Charlie Sykes: Sykes Writes
"I'm Glad He's Dead!" (Audio)
As the left and the media continue to focus on Rush Limbaugh's offensive (and stupid) comments about a Georgetown student, a Madison talk show host, chortles at the death of a conservative activist.
I'm gonna pour Round-Up on his grave …so there's no chance that he ever comes back to life! And I can kill him like the weed that he was."
"I'm glad he's dead!"
MRC has coverage of the story here.
Sylvester has a history of such controversial segments, once referring to Condoleeza Rice as an "Aunt Jemima" and also accusing GOP Lieutenant Governor, and cancer survivor, Rebecca Kleefisch, of having performed "fellatio on all the talk-show hosts in Milwaukee."
Additionally, I've contacted Program Director for WTDY, Rex Charger via e-mail seeking a comment, but have yet to receive a response. Perhaps NewsBusters readers would have better luck (h/t Bethany) by clicking here...

chenille bedspread I ordered a king size since I was purchasing king size blankets to fit my queen size bed. It was too large and I returned it for an exchange for a queen. takes a while for the item to get to the store for an exchange. I was highly satisfied with the quality. I highly recommend this bedspread. December 18, 2012
So pretty the pattern is like great Grandmothers' I have wished for a bedspread of this type. It was hard to choose. I chose this one because, Pink roses are a favorite of mine and my mom's. I enjoy it every day. Thank you for your rapid shippement. December 10, 2012
Love this Product !! For many years I have looked for the Chenille bedspreads from my younger days. I even looked in antique stores. When I did find any they were worn and torn...then one day while browsing through your magazine, I cam across your chenille bedspreads and fell in love with this one. I love it so much. I would love to buy my Christmas gifts from your store. They would be more appreciated than a modern store bought product. Thanks for having great products from the past. November 17, 2012
most beautiful bedspread ever I am a 62 year old woman retired in kentucky but born and raised in massachusetts. I miss my heritage, so when I found this "Yankee" website I was thrilled !! I read all about their store and found it to be of high standards-I would not purchase from anything less than the BEST. My first purchase was a chenille bedspread which reminded me of those that grandma always had on all of her beds. When it arrived I was thrilled with it's beauty and exceptional quality.Iloved it so much that I just placed another order for 2 quarts of maple syrup, 3 goose down pillows and other assorted items-this is because if I bought these items here they would be of inferior quality-not for me.Money is hard to come by these days but if your going to spend it-buy quality and their customer service is great. I have already got a list started for future purchases and I'm not a wealthy woman but I do need things for the home and this is THE BEST store I've come across in ages. I would recommend trying this store to my family members and to everyone who insists on excellent quality,free shippng and areal live person to speak with if you need help. Thank You Vermont Country Store for making my life happier and my home more beautiful. November 15, 2012
Wonderful Memories I have been searching for years for the bedspread my mom used to have on her bed. It was beautiful and I remember many an afternoon spent cuddled in it reading my many books. Well, I finally found it and let me say, the wonderful memories all came flooding back! I especially appreciate it as my mom recently passed away and I have an added sweet memory of her. Thanks so much! November 8, 2012
Beautiful Bedspread I had been searching for a long time for a chenille bedspread that was like my old baby blanket my grandmother had saved for me. Exact same colors with a little pink rocking horse on it. The Victoria Rose spread is exactly what I was looking for, reminds me of when I was a kid. Absolutely love it. Leane Matis August 8, 2012

What Our Customers Are Saying about Our Victoria Rose Chenille Bedspread …
"100% cotton vintage-looking Rose Chenille Bedspread, #50576, king size. Well, that's the description, anyway. I've always wanted one of those, but I never could find them. My poor old mother looked pretty much all of her days for one of the bedspreads with the peacocks on them. You have no idea—how I wish that I could have found your company then. Everything in your book is absolutely beautiful. Do you have the Rose Chenille Bedspread in stock? I CAN'T WAIT." - ATHENA STRICKLAND, PARKTON, NC

Chinedu Unaka
Chinedu loves entertaining. Having superstar comedians he grew up admiring share the stage with him and call him hilarious, funny, or a great writer has been one of his career highlights and a dream come true.
Hailing from the Los Angeles area, this American born Nigerian is making a huge wave on the comedy scene. In addition, with his two degrees collecting dust from UCSB and LMU, he's also a respected writer, and earth shattering youtube actor. CHINEDU has established himself as an intelligent comedic presence performing regularly at some of the country's most renowned comedy clubs: The Hollywood Laugh Factory, The Hollywood Improv, The Comedy Store, The Comedy Union, The Jspot Comedy Club, Ventura Harbor Comedy Club, Comedy Hideaway, and Flappers just to name a few. As well as independently touring colleges nationwide annually.
Chinedu competed in NBC's Stand Up for Diversity 2013 making it all the way past the 3rd round and waiting to hear back if he made the finals in November. In addition, he has just been confirmed to be on NUVO's TV second season of Stand Up and Deliver Comedy Show being taped at The Hollywood Improv in September.

He has also been a featured performer of The Ventura Harbor Comedy Festival for 3 years straight and counting; performing for all of the following showcases: TV Showcase, Black Friday, International Comics, etc. Furthermore, Chinedu produces his own sell out show once a month in Los Angeles called The Comedy Kickback at Echoes Under Sunset in Echo Park and has written for 2 comedy specials on SHOWTIME. Appearing on numerous stages, Chinedu provides the audience with a fresh point of view, a welcoming persona, hilarious flips in logic, sugarless eye candy, and classic jokes that will make you want to repeat them to a group of friends the next day at work and or school or on the couch to yourself.
A writer for televised comedians and viral YouTube sketch comedy groups; Chinedu has been labeled by audiences, comedians, bookers, and his mother as clever energy – with jokes that are original, universal, hysterical, and as someone who is ready for primetime.
Chinedu knows what's FUNny plain and simple; when he is performing for shows always trust you will get your money and time worth. Just give Chinedu a spotlight and a mic, and enjoy the GENIUS.

Printing & Publishing: Background
The printing and publishing industry has experienced monumental change in the past decade with the Internet's growth in use and popularity.
Printing and publishing companies, primarily composed of magazines, newspapers, and book publishers, have generally embraced the Internet as a vital component of their industry and adjusted their lobbying efforts accordingly.
Whereas several years ago the public wondered if books and newspapers would even exist in the year 2010, many printing and publishing companies have adapted and survived - although a number of newspapers, in particular, have indeed folded or morphed into online-only publications. They include the Rocky Mountain News, Seattle Post-Intelligencer and New York Sun. Many publishing companies have also laid off numerous employees in recent years as advertising sales plummeted.
Though lobbying in the printing and publishing industry has been on a slight decline since its peak in the first half of the decade, top players continue to see success on issues like copyright and patent law, in addition to postal legislation.
Publishing giant McGraw-Hill Companies spent more than $1 million influencing federal legislation in 2009, with the majority of the money going to credit rating regulation on behalf of subsidiary company Standard & Poor's. Reed Elsevier Inc. also spent more than $1 million in 2009 on issues such as consumer protection and security. The Newspaper Association of America still spends hundreds of thousands of dollars each year lobbying, although its lobbying spending has declined recently.
Lobbying efforts of newspapers such as the Washington Post may potentially pay off as well as it joins other publishing companies for passage ofthe Free Flow of Information Act of 2009.
Contributions to federal candidates and political committees by the printing and publishing industry have generally increased over the past decade, with the industry as a whole giving an unprecedented $25.2 million to candidates during the 2008 election cycle.
Until the 2000 election cycle, contributions were about evenly split between Democratic and Republican federal candidates and political committees. Now the industry leans Democratic, with between 64 percent and 77 percent of their total contributions going to Democrats each election cycle for the past decade.

There is now the option for one player mode, which is good for people to hone skills, and whatnot, but can you get achievements/drops in One Player? If so: how?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Arqade is a question and answer site for passionate videogamers on all platforms. It's 100% free, no registration required.
In "offline practice mode" (where you play against bots):

You cannot get achievements from the one player mode.
However, you can create an otherwise empty server to "farm" achievements (though, understandably, many of the achievements require at least two people), and you can even unlock achievements via LAN games.
It is possible to get achievements using the "map" and the "tf_bot_add" commands. However, when using the practice mode, achievements are not possible.

Oxblood, burgundy, merlot...whatever you call it, this distinctive, deep-red hue is having a major moment. While that's all well and good on the fashion front, it's not quite as simple to translate this tricky trend to your face. Is it now?
Well, to aid with just that, we asked makeup maestro Sara Glick to show us her secrets to wearing this dark and gothically gorgeous hue on your eyes, lips, and cheeks. "I think that burgundy is really having a comeback because women are feeling more comfortable being adventurous with their makeup," says Glick. "Burgundy can be worn by anyone. Many women with darker skin tones look fantastic in it, while the palest of the pale can also pull it off. It's the kind of color that can easily be worn if used moderately — with burgundy, a lot goes a long way."
Read on to get the full scoop on fearlessly adding this bloody-good shade into your makeup routine.

Staying Connected
Understanding TV Ratings
As a parent, you want your kids to enjoy a full and fun TV experience that's appropriate for their age level. At the same time, you also want to protect them from the adult content provided by your TV service.
To help parents with this, every TV show in the U.S., excluding news, newsmagazine shows and sports events, is tagged with a television content rating. This rating gives you an idea of a program's suitability for your children.
With Cox Advanced TV service, you can use the parental controls feature to block programming according to its rating. The current television ratings guidelines you can use during your parental controls set up are listed below.
TV Y: All Children
This program is designed to be appropriate for all children. Whether animated or live-action, the themes and elements in this program are specifically designed for a very young audience, including children from ages 2 - 6. This program is not expected to frighten younger children.
TV Y7: Directed to Older Children
This program is designed for children age 7 and above. It may be more appropriate for children who have acquired the developmental skills needed to distinguish between make-believe and reality. Themes and elements in this program may include mild fantasy violence or comedic violence, or may frighten children under the age of 7. Therefore, parents may wish to consider the suitability of this program for their very young children.
TV Y7 FV: Directed to Older Children - Fantasy Violence
For those programs where fantasy violence may be more intense or more combative than other programs in this category, such programs will be designated TV-Y7-FV.
TV G: General Audience
Most parents would find this program suitable for all ages. Although this rating does not signify a program designed specifically for children, most parents may let younger children watch this program unattended. It contains little or no violence, no strong language and little or no sexual dialogue or situations.
TV PG: Parental Guidance Suggested
This program contains material that parents may find unsuitable for younger children. Many parents may want to watch it with their younger children. The theme itself may call for parental guidance and/or the program contains one or more of the following: moderate violence (V), some sexual situations (S), infrequent coarse language (L) or some suggestive dialogue (D).
TV 14: Parents Strongly Cautioned
This program contains some material that many parents would find unsuitable for children under 14 years of age. Parents are strongly urged to exercise greater care in monitoring this program and are cautioned against letting children under the age of 14 watch unattended. This program contains one or more of the following: intense violence (V), intense sexual situations (S), strong coarse language (L), or intensely suggestive dialogue (D).
TV MA: Mature Audience Only
This program is specifically designed to be viewed by adults and therefore may be unsuitable for children under 17. This program contains one or more of the following: graphic violence (V), explicit sexual activity (S), or crude indecent language (L).

He's the author and singer of some of country music's rowdiest, late-night anthems. The man who almost never leaves a stage without defending his right to "get stoned and sing all night long."
But these days, Hank Williams Jr. is getting up early.
The veteran country-rocker, 64, tells The Tennessean that he's starting his mornings on his property near Paris, Tenn., at 5 a.m. It's hunting season, so he spends his days out in the same Northwest Tennessee wilderness that inspired his father, country legend Hank Williams, to write "Long Gone Lonesome Blues." Between that and tending to his family — his youngest child, Sam, is 16 — Hank Williams Jr. has found plenty to keep him busy as he has kept a healthy distance from any major cities.
"We don't have restaurants. You'd better know how to cook real good," he says with a laugh. "You'd better like barbecue and catfish. Yeah, (my Dad) came here a lot, too, when they did their morning radio show. That's the reason."
"I'm kinda like that song of mine: 'I live out in the woods, you see,'" he says, paraphrasing one of his best-known hits, "A Country Boy Can Survive."
But this Tuesday, that country boy will make the two-hour drive to Nashville and spend another late night in Music City. As the headliner of the "New Year's Eve Bash On Broadway," he'll ring in 2014 with a free concert on Lower Broadway, flanked by the honky-tonks and bar bands that play his "Family Tradition" on a daily basis.

I have a room behind my garage where I store most of my tools but the floor in that room is about 4" higher than my garage. For a while now I have been wanting to install a ramp to make it easier to store larger equipment back there like my welders, but space is at a premium with my small garage so I didn't want to put in a ramp that was perminate. I came up with the idea to build a set of ramps that slide on a track. This way they can be slid into place and be anchored to the floor so they won't shift when moving equipment over them. When I'm done they slide away and fold up against the wall. The ramps are made of 1/8" plate with 1X1x.060 box tubing and the track is made of 3/4" tubing. The ramps can handle the weight of both my welders but I'm a little concern that the 3/4" tubing may not be able to support the weight of heavy items. I figure if this becomes a problem I can add a couple of skids to the bottom of the ramps which will support the weight instead of the track. It was a small project but like all projects I tried to do some things that I have never done before. Used the oppertunity to get some more seat time with my new tig.

Very nice. I like the idea that they stay there and you don't have to put them somewhere else, then look for them when you need them.

Thats a great idea, lets see if I knocked a door in the back wall of my garage/shop then I could ... guess I better not, that would be into the Den and I don't guess my wife would allow me to store welders in the den. Maybe I will do it while she is at work and ask for forgivness when she gets homeRegards, George

I got lucky I have a detached garage and when I married I told my wife you can do what ever you want to the house, just leave garage alone. She actually asked me to get rid of my girlly posters and I had to put my foot down. My garage is my sanctuary from political correctness, if I want Linda Vaugh or the Earls Pluming Girl on the gargae walls then thats the way it's going to be .

A mans's castle
I agree, a mans castle is his refuge from political correctness. I'm building my castle, er, garage this summer, and I plan to install a 'throne' as well. I figure, that way the pictures can go up, and the wife won't get upset when she see them when she parks her car.

Innovative optical design which fits into your pocket
Numerous international awards confirm the high quality of the MINOX compact binoculars again and again. By developing further innovative features the design engineers at MINOX have been able to provide even greater performance.
A distinguishing feature of this generation of binoculars is the innovative eyepiece designed for people wearing glasses. The eye relief has been increased by over 30%. This means that people wearing glasses can enjoy a full field of view. There is also no more awkward folding over of rubber eyecups - these compact binoculars have revolving eyecups that can even be adjusted in half stops.
As soon as you pick up one of these BD design models, you will notice its true quality features. The sturdy ABS body and the additional rubber armoring provide durability in the optical systems, even when the going gets tough. Further distinguishing features are the intricate lens systems with their multicoated roof prisms which provide excellent contrast and extremely high resolving power, even under critical light conditions.
The ergonomic design makes these binoculars extremely handy to use and permits shake-free viewing of nature scenes, sports events, opera and theatre.
Includes carrying strap and nylon case.
MINOX Lifetime Total Coverage Warranty
While MINOX optical equipment is built to operate perfectly in harsh environments, uncontrollable things can happen in the field which can result in unexpected damage. That is why MINOX provides a *Total Coverage Warranty protection for all MINOX sport optics products - MINOX will repair or replace any damaged product with no questions asked.

At 6:02 a.m. May 3, Calvert County deputy N. Lenharr went to the area of Huntingtown United Methodist Church and Hunting Creek Road after someone reported a naked man reading a book.
Lenharr found a man, who was clothed, sitting in the grass near the road across the street from the church. Chase Daniel Williamson, 23, of Waldorf allegedly admitted that he had been naked and was arrested for disorderly conduct. Upon arrival at the Calvert County jail, police said Williamson refused to exit the cruiser and began yelling. He was eventually removed from the car by Lenharr and several corrections officers.

For the tens of thousands bearing flowers and tying black ribbons to railings in honor of slain Russian opposition politician Boris Nemtsov, the solemn march through the Moscow drizzle on Sunday was a time for silence, not slogans. The marchers occasionally broke into chants of "Russia without Putin," or "Say no to war," but often the only sound was the steady thwack of police helicopters overhead or the hum of police boats patrolling the shores of the Moscow River. While the killing of Nemtsov...

If you are willing to forgo working 9 to 5, there's a smorgasbord of jobs that can be sampled during the hours when most folks have dimmed their lights.
These range from baking pastries and breads to manning the front desk at a hotel, selling movie or theater tickets, cleaning offices or working in a variety of different positions in the growing, round-the-clock casino industry.
Blackjack dealer Manny St. Mary, a 62-year-old retired restaurateur, typically works from 8 p.m. to 4 a.m., three to four days a week. You can find him behind one of the 100 green felt tables scattered across the spacious gaming floor at the Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh.
St. Mary, a native of the Philippines, initially signed on as a chef in the casino's Grandview Buffet restaurant when it opened two years ago, after he and his wife, Priscilla, also an accomplished chef, were forced to close their own eatery. Priscilla was in failing health at the time. "She retired, and I spent about two years taking care of her," St. Mary recalls.
But full-blown retirement wasn't in the cards for Manny. "I was lonely. I wanted to be busy. I was a little worried about money and scared that my mind would idle and dementia would set in," he says. "I needed to keep working."
Shortly after Manny started at the casino restaurant, his people skills caught the eye of management and he was asked if he wanted to train to be a dealer.
Manny breezed through the process. He had to pass a math test and sit for an interview. Then, after graduating from an intensive 12-week course and receiving the green light from the state-required background check, he stepped into the action.
It was new territory for him. "I didn't gamble in my life. I didn't know anything about three-card poker, blackjack or splitting cards," he says matter-of-factly. But he was a quick study. The real secret? "Your hands must be nimble, fast, swift and very accurate," he rattles off rapidly. "You must be flamboyant in your language, amiable, talkative and very kind-hearted. You must evoke friendliness and smile."
In other words, have a little razzle-dazzle. Casinos riff off a vibe of youth and energy. St. Mary has that energy in spades. "I love interacting with people. It makes me feel vibrant, and I guess I'm lucky. I look 40," he boasts with a quick chortle.
St. Mary admits a card dealer's job won't suit everyone his age. It takes stamina of a sort. Aside from the oomph of showmanship, this is on-your-feet work. There is no sitting on this shift — except for scheduled breaks.
The hours allow him to spend his days with Priscilla, now 72 and living in an assisted care facility. That's a big motivator for him.
Base pay is low: $4.50 an hour, in addition to health benefits, a 401(k) plan and paid vacation. "Dealers depend on the generosity of the players," St. Mary says. "They aren't obliged to tip, so you never know what each night will bring."
It's possible to take home $15 an hour, he estimates. (Players often tip 5 percent of winnings; if they lose for the session, a $10 gratuity is not unusual). "Last night, somebody won $10,000! Ahh … it was amazing," he excitedly squeals. "They were so happy. Me, too."
Here are five great jobs for night owls to consider. Pay ranges, which vary depending on factors such as experience and geography, are primarily derived from U.S. Department of Labor data.
